Chapter 017 - Jinzhi's Heart Knot
(XX website www.xxx.***)(XX website www.xxx.***)(XX website www.xxx.***) Wu Zhi sat down slowly next to Si Xingfang's body. It seemed that he had to wait for the Fang Mansion to get into chaos. There was really no good way to get out.
After waiting for an hour, the entire Fang Mansion was still so quiet that it was not as noisy as I had expected.
No matter how calm Wu Zhi was, he couldn't help but feel anxious at this time. He was not afraid that he would not be able to sneak back to the house, but that there would be something unexpected happening to Qiqiao and Wang Jin and others attack Yuexizhuang's cargo team. This time the cargo team news would not be the smoke bombs from Yuexizhuang again, but he heard Fang Tianding and Jinzhi talking about it unintentionally. If he said it was deliberately telling it to himself, it was obviously unlikely.
If you leave here first, you will naturally receive news from Wang Jin tomorrow. Wu Zhi was dressed tightly, and it seemed that he had only pulled out his secret whistle and rushed out. He wanted to take a big shot. He first took out the mansion and gave them the illusion that the assassin was an outsider. Then he crawled in from the high wall of the East Courtyard. Most of the people living in the East Courtyard were servants, and the defense was not very tight.
As soon as Wu Zhi walked to the gate of the courtyard, he heard footsteps coming from outside, as if he was not alone. Wu Zhi hurriedly held his breath and leaned against the corner of the wall next to the door.
The gate of the courtyard was gently knocked, "Is Brother Si sleeping?"
Wu Zhi calmed down and thoughts changed rapidly. He came to call Si Xingfang so late. He didn't think he was a cat or a dog, otherwise he wouldn't have the courage. He heard that he was Si Ge. It seemed that he was also a top-notch player in the Fang Mansion, but it was not the two King Kongs. I'm afraid they were a person of the same level as the Twelve Gods. I wonder what happened to call Si Xingfang so late? Could it be that the news of the attack on the cargo team had just arrived? But it was not like that. There was no sign of any situation in the Fang Mansion.
Among the masters of Fang Mansion, the top ones are naturally the Four Great Vajras, and then the Twelve Gods in Jiangnan, Eight Tigers in Lingnan, etc. The Four Great Vajras are probably similar to Wang Jin and Lin Chong's martial arts skills. However, I heard that the Baoguang monk Deng Yuanjue, the leader of the Four Great Vajras, is not only extremely witty, but his martial arts skills are even higher than the other three Vajras. He is really a great enemy.
"Brother Si, my brother and Tong. I just hunted a few deer and sold a few kilograms of fine wine. I knew that the fourth brother was good at this, so I specially sent him a few drinks with my fourth brother. Brother Xu Fang and Xu also came with me..." The man outside raised his voice slightly.
The Leopard Tail God and Tong, the Flying Tiger Xu Fang. One is a character among the twelve gods in Jiangnan, and the other is a character of the Eight Tigers in Lingnan. Wu Zhi has clear information about the first-class experts.
I breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that there was nothing urgent. I just wanted to come and curry favor with the manager, and ignored them and left.
"Old Xu, I'm afraid my fourth brother will fall asleep today. If it were the past, the fourth brother would have heard the deer meat and fine wine." This was He Tong's voice.
"Oh, there's nothing we can do, let's go back." Another voice thought it was Xu Fangdi.
He Tong knocked on the courtyard gate a few more times, and saw that there was no reaction in the courtyard, he muttered a few words. Then the footsteps gradually faded away.
Wu Zhi waited for a while before gently pulling the door open, and carefully opened the yard door slowly. Suddenly, someone laughed not far away and said, "The Fourth Brother is still getting up?" But it was not the voices of He Tong and Xu Fang, "I was also quarreled by them to see. Who knew that these two boys ran very fast..."
Wu Zhi screamed in secret. I don’t know who was living near Sixingfang and was so good at drinking and eating. The two of them hooked up. They stood still and gently stretched their hands behind their necks, slowly pulling out the Wujin Sword.
The man walked over with a smile and said, "Fourth brother, come out quickly, let's go find those two boys together."
Wu Zhi listened silently to his footsteps, and the sword in his hand suddenly pierced out like lightning. The person who came just walked to the gate of the yard. Before the smile had dissipated, a black shadow had pierced his chest. It was impossible to say that Wu Zhi was not sure about the timing of the ground. But what Wu Zhi didn't expect was that a patrol team had just turned around. More than a dozen patrol customers witnessed the process of Zhang Wei being stabbed in the Eight Tigers of Lingnan.
The patrol patrolman was slightly stunned, and then a shocking gong and drum sounded, and someone who was eager to make contributions rushed over. Wu Zhi no longer cared about hiding his shortcomings at this time, and there was no golden sword in his hand. Those patrolmen did not expect such a powerful weapon in the world. They were chopped down by Wu Zhi one after another. While the chaos of the patrolman, Wu Zhi ran away.
The quiet Fang Mansion was completely boiling, with lanterns and torches everywhere, and shouts of "catching assassins" came one after another. The entire Fang Mansion was immediately mobilized, but unfortunately, the commanding officers did not appear on weekdays, which made the arresting teams chaotic. Many shopkeepers formed a team at will and searched around the Fang Mansion. When they heard a shout, they ran over to several teams. Deng Yuanjue, the leader of the four major kings and the military advisor of Yuexizhuang, slowly allocated the team after they arrived.
Although it was chaotic in the early stage, the patrol teams and secret whistles in the fixed area would not move around, so Wu Zhi naturally couldn't slip back to his room. He took advantage of the chaos and killed several tourists from the village and touched into the back garden. This might be the corner where the entire Yuexi Village was the least noticed at this time. Wu Zhi was lying under a tree by the small lake, and gradually merged with the shadow of the trees by the lake.
Wu Zhi secretly cried out in his heart that bad luck. Why did the group of farmers come here so by chance? Not to mention quietly returning to the Xia Ren's room, it is unlikely that he would even think of Yuexi Village. If there is still a glimmer of chance, he would hide here until dawn. If he had not been discovered at that time, he would throw Ye Xingyi into the lake and restore Mu Wu's dress. Maybe he could slip back, but he was afraid that the search would turn the Fang Mansion tonight. If he found out that the Xia Ren's room had no shadow, then his identity would be considered a mistake.
Wu Zhi was thinking about it, and suddenly heard a noise in the distance. Then a long queue of *** came into the garden. After entering, it immediately scattered into stars. I thought I had searched carefully.
Wu Zhi smiled bitterly in his heart. This was probably the order of the great monk Deng Yuanjue. This guy was also a dangerous person. Seeing the stars gradually moving towards him, if this continues, he will sooner or later be discovered. Wu Zhi looked around and saw that there was no place to hide nearby. For a moment, Wu Zhi felt like he had no way to heaven and no way to enter the ground.
The lantern torch was getting closer and closer to Wu Zhi. Wu Zhi moved his body quietly backwards, and his feet had already touched the water surface of the lake. If he moved down, he would fall into the lake. He was a landslide. He was wandering, and his eyes suddenly saw a big stone beside him. A scene in the Legend of the Condor Heroes came to his heart, but later I heard that this was written randomly, so don't let anyone take care of his life.
He hesitated for a moment, looking at the lanterns and torches only a hundred steps away from him, just like a dead horse, just treat the dead horse as a living horse. He gently pulled out the sword of Wujin, cut the stone out of a handle, then pulled it into his arms, slowly moved his body to the lakeside, and he had to be careful every time he moved. This stone was really heavy, and thanks to my daily efforts recently, otherwise he would not be able to pull it.
He took a deep breath and slowly sank into the small lake. The small lake is an artificial lake. There is no shallow water area at all, and the four walls of bricks and stones are built. Wu Zhi inserted the golden sword into the bricks and stones and sank slowly.
Although his feet were light and fluttering at the bottom of the lake, he could finally stand. I think because the small lake was not too deep, the buoyancy was not particularly strong. Wu Zhi tried hard on his legs, closed his eyes, and took a closer look and walked over.
The tourists from all walks of life in the garden are still some distance away from searching for the lake. Who would notice the slight trembling of the water marks in the lake?
Wu Zhi walked for a while, and the feeling of being unable to breathe became stronger and stronger. Gradually, his mind began to dizzy. The thought of opening his mouth to breathe filled his mind. Wu Zhi gritted his teeth and ran away desperately, but his feet became slightly weak and his speed was greatly reduced. When he was about to be unable to hold on, his body hit a wall-like thing. The stone in his hand could no longer hold it and landed on the ground. Wu Zhi couldn't help but open his mouth and screamed softly. The lake water immediately rushed in. Wu Zhi, who had drunk a few sips of the lake water, pulled out the golden sword, inserted it on the bricks and stones in front of him, and leaped hard on the hilt of the sword, and his head was exposed to the lake. At this time, he no longer cared about being discovered. He turned over to the berth and gasped. The only feeling at this time was that it was so cool, and he had never seen it."
After a long time, Wu Zhi took a break and looked across the lake, he realized that he had taken the wrong direction in the water. He wanted to walk to the woods opposite the garden to hide, but he didn't want to turn to the backyard west of the garden. Fortunately, he took the wrong direction and the distance was much closer, otherwise he would have to be buried at the bottom of the lake. Some things are easy to remember, but it is really difficult to do.
He went into the water to catch Wujin Sword. As soon as he got ashore, he suddenly heard a chaotic footsteps in front of him. Wu Zhi looked around. It was flat, and only a two-story building not far away could accommodate him.
Wu Zhi rushed over, and it was naturally the same rule. Without the help of the golden sword, he turned over to the second floor pavilion, silently cut off the window bolt and rushed into the inside.
The fragrance of flowers in the house, and the swaying lights and shadows, a few veils hanging from the jade-yellow dust carved with dark flowers, which divides the big house into one half and the other half. The outer decorations are very elegant, and in the vague half of the heavy gauze, I can only see the tent half of the silk. Although it is not very real, I can also see the remaining beauty sleeping soundly.
Wu Zhi was stunned for a moment and finally saved the two-story building. Isn’t this two-story building Jin Zhi’s embroidery building? No wonder there are no guards downstairs. The lady’s embroidery building cannot always have a few big men swaying around. Moreover, Jin Zhi has a weird temper and does not allow the patrol customer to patrol around her embroidery building.
Wu Zhi sat down carefully and thought about how to get rid of the current predicament.
"Miss! Miss!" The maid Cui'er's yelling suddenly came outside the door of Jinzhi's boudoir. Wu Zhi suddenly woke up from his thoughts. When he looked up, his bright eyes were staring at him.
Is this Jin Zhidi's eyes? This is Wu Zhi's first reaction, and the second reaction is to point the golden sword in his hand gently at Jin Zhi's throat and whisper: "Do you know what to do?"
Jin Zhi was not panicked at all, and looked Wu Zhi up and down with interesting interest, and replied, "Cui'er, what's wrong?"
"Miss, the guards said that a water stain was found nearby. Miss, you have not had anyone in your room, right?" Cui'er seemed relieved when she heard Jin Zhi's answer and her tone was no longer anxious.
"No, I'm sleeping just right, don't call me again!" Jin Zhi ordered casually. Cui'er responded outside, and then the footsteps of her going downstairs. She thought she had gone back to the words of the shopkeepers.
Wu Zhi put away his long sword and sat back on the chair.
"You? Are you a northerner who is against my father recently?" There was a rustling sound in the shiman, and Jin Zhi walked over with a big cloak and sat down opposite Wu Zhi.
Wu Zhi only realized that Jin Zhi had a unique lazy style. Her hair was tied up at random, and there was no empty space in her eyes during the day. She stared at herself tightly.
Wu Zhi deliberately made his voice thicker and said, "You have your own identity. Are you not afraid that I will be unfavorable to you?"
Jin Zhi smiled and said, "What can I do if I don't admit it. You will guess sooner or later, it's better to admit it honestly. Besides, you can't fly now. At worst, you can just use me to threaten my father. You will never kill me, a weak woman..."
Wu Zhi was thinking about how to use Jin Zhi to threaten Fang La. It seems that this action can only end here. Being able to leave Fang Mansion safely is the best result. Wu Zhi didn't dare to talk to her. She was afraid that she would hear the voice. Although she no longer cared about the exposure of her identity, the two met each other after all, and it was always bad to break up on the spot.
"Why do you want to go against our Yuexizhuang?" Jin Zhi asked.
Wu Zhi said: "Tree Wharf!" In order not to be seen through by Jin Zhi, he could only speak less.
"Oh, it's another thing in the world. Why do you men care so much about reputation and status?" Jin Zhi seemed to remember his thoughts and sighed.
Wu Zhi became curious about her. What was the worries of this woman who was sleepy all day long? She always sighed inexplicably, "Do you have something to do?"
Jin Zhi blinked his big eyes and asked without answering, "Then why did you want to sneak attack in our Yuexizhuang? The true nature of a man is to fight with Yuexizhuang!"
Wu Zhi said, "For brothers!" When he spoke, he naturally remembered the hundreds of brothers who died tragically in Yuexizhuang, and his tone became ruthless.
Jin Zhi was startled by his vicious tone. Since the man entered the house, she had a sense of intuition, as if the man was very familiar with him, so she was not very scared. The man had always been polite to him, so Jin Zhi was relieved to talk to him. Unexpectedly, when he talked, he would be the same as when he changed his body. His hatred made Jin Zhi shudder.
After a long time, Jin Zhi slowly said: "I want to be your brother very happy..."
Wu Zhiche was worried and sighed: "It should be said that it is unfortunate to be my brother. How many lives have died for me in vain..."
Jin Zhi said: "You don't seem to have any ambitions, so why do you come to Jiangnan to compete for territory?"
Wu Zhi was stunned for a moment and said, "How do you know if I have ambition?"
Jin Zhi shook her head and said, "If it were my father, I would never have taken risks alone for a few subordinates. What you did was really not like a person with great ambition."
Wu Zhi said, "Maybe I am different from the owner of the village." In front of Jin Zhi, he didn't call Fang La directly.
Jin Zhi said: "Maybe it is."
The two of them fell silent. After a while, Jin Zhi suddenly said, "Let's go, let's go and have a bet."
Wu Zhi was stunned and looked at Jin Zhi and bet on a game? Could it be that he saw through my identity?
Jin Zhi said calmly: "Actually, I have always wanted to bet this. See if it is important to his great cause or his daughter's life in my father's heart. Unfortunately, there has been no bets. Now you are a bet of sufficient weight."
If I win the bet, you can escape and I will get satisfactory results. If I lose, there will be a hero who will accompany me on the road to the underworld and will not be lonely."
Wu Zhi then suddenly realized and thought about it for a moment, and it was true that Fang La could not use common sense to speculate. Even if he threatened him with Jin Zhi, if he thought he was worthy of threatening his hegemony, he might not have spared himself for this daughter.
After pondering for a while, Wu Zhi said, "I will go out at noon tomorrow. I'm sorry I can't bet with the girl. But during this period, I'll trouble the girl to stay here. I also want to advise the girl, it's better not to know the result in some gambling games."
Jin Zhi looked slightly disappointed. When she heard Wu Zhi's words, she fell into deep thought. After a long time, she said: "Maybe you are right. It's better not to reveal the gambling game if you have any place. Listening to your words reminded me of a good friend, and what he said always makes some sense."
Of course Wu Zhi knew who Jin Zhi was talking about. When she heard her call herself a "good friend", she smiled bitterly in her heart. She never saw you how good you were to your "good friend".
"Why didn't I understand before that some bets are best not to know the result?" Jin Zhi murmured almost in a dream. "I once insisted on revealing a bet. I lost..."
Jin Zhi whispered in a low voice and didn't know what to muttering to herself there. After a while, her tone became louder
"What descendants of the royal family, descendants of the Chai family! What heroes of the Gaotang! He is just a hypocrite, an ambitious man who wants to restore the country and is a coward. Why did his father say he was obedient and obedient when he said he would not be allowed to interact with me again? Why?!..." Jin Zhi burst into tears and shouted almost madly.
Wu Zhi thought about it briefly and understood that Jin Zhi and Chai Jin were husband and wife in Water Margin. Now Jin Zhi said that Di is also Chai Jin. Perhaps Chai Jin and Jin Zhi were originally in love, but they were afraid that Chai Jin was more utilitarian. Most of them wanted to use Jin Zhidi's identity. Fang La's power to help him restore the country. Who knew that Fang La might see through his intentions. After a threat, even if Chai Jin could not use Fang La, he would not dare to turn this huge power into his opponent, so he naturally broke up with Jin Zhi.
Thinking about the misunderstanding of Water Margin in later books, Chai Jin accepted heroes everywhere and raised countless patriarchs. I think he was very ambitious. He just smiled at that time, but unexpectedly, he was really like this.
"Miss. Don't miss him anymore!" Cui'er cried outside. It seemed that Jin Zhi often vented like this.
Jin Zhi leaned on the table and sobbed. After a long time, the crying gradually stopped. He raised his head and shouted, "Cui'er, go down. I've told you a long time ago. I'm fine. How could I miss him again? I'm just a little dissatisfied."
Cui'er responded and went downstairs.
Jin Zhi was silent for a while and said, "I just don't accept it. Why do some people sacrifice their lives for their subordinates, but some people..." Turning to Wu Zhi, "If your beloved woman is locked in a dragon's den, do you dare to break out?"
Wu Zhi said lightly: "What do you think?"
Jin Zhi sighed, "I think you can also break into the ground when you come here. Can you promise me that I will not go against Yuexizhuang again in the future?"
Wu Zhi shook his head and said, "Miss is asking again."
Jin Zhi smiled bitterly and said, "No matter what, since you are a hero, I will send you out today, but if you come to Fang Mansion again, I will never teach you again!"
Wu Zhi stood up and said, "Since this is the kindness of the girl, I will repay her when the land of Yuexi Village collapses!"
Jin Zhi stared at him in a daze, unable to understand where this mysterious man had such strong confidence. When he let him go, he not only did not say anything grateful, but instead made this seemingly ridiculous promise. But looking at his firm eyes and listening to his unquestionable tone, Jin Zhi felt panicked, and intuitively seemed to have the decision he made would bring great disaster to the Fang family.
Wu Zhi said: "It's still time for the girl to regret it now!"
Jin Zhi shook her head and said, "I won't regret what I said!" He stared at Wu Zhi's eyes for a while, and hesitated a little, "I seem to have seen your eyes somewhere..."
Wu Zhi was shocked. The mask was specially made by a blacksmith. From the outside, he could only see a small part of his eyes. Jin Zhi's eyes would not be so poisonous. He laughed and said, "Is that so? It's not clear that you and I have met a long time ago!"
Jin Zhi shook his head, a man of great power and heroic spirit like him, how could he not recognize him? He stopped thinking about it, and said, "Wait a minute!" He then opened the door and walked out. When he went downstairs, he suddenly woke up. It seemed that he was hostile to him. Why did he open the door and go downstairs naturally like chatting with friends? What's even more strange is that he didn't stop him. Aren't he afraid that he would regret it if he took off his master?
Wu Zhi changed into the servant outfit that Jin Zhi brought, and pulled the hat on his head to cover half of his face. Jin Zhi couldn't help asking, "Are you not afraid of me running away just now?"
Takehi said: "Of course I'm afraid! But it's also very interesting to open some bets occasionally, especially when you bet right."
Jin Zhi smiled and stopped talking.
Although Cui'er was startled when she saw the masked man appearing in the lady's room, she didn't say much.
Jin Zhi took Cui'er and Wu Zhi all the way to the back door of the backyard. The guard power between the backyard and the front yard was the strongest, but there were not many patrol teams in the backyard. After all, how could there be men everywhere in the residence of Fang Ladi family and wife? So no one stopped him all the way. When he met two teams of patriots, he also avoided the eldest lady. Naturally, he did not find any abnormalities in Wu Zhi.
After leaving the back door, Wu Zhi let out a long sigh and turned around and said, "Miss, please go home, let's say goodbye!" He said that, turning around and strode away.
Cui'er couldn't help but say, "This person is really inappropriate. Why didn't you say thank you and just leave like that!"
Looking at Wu Zhi's back, Jin Zhi smiled and said, "Some people say things with their mouths, but they will pass after hearing them. And some people say things with their heart..."
Cui'er looked at Jin Zhi for no reason, not knowing what the lady was talking about.
Chapter completed!
