Since he couldn't get out for a while, Shen Shenyan simply locked himself in the room and continued writing the manuscript. This manuscript was just about to be finished. If everything went well, he could get it for printing tomorrow.
…
At dusk, Shen Shenyan had not yet come out of the room, so he quietly left the house without being noticed by the prince.
The desolate night covers the brown earth, and from time to time the cries of birds can be heard from the distant valley. A crescent moon hangs in the sky, and the shadows of the trees swaying in the wind are like ghosts and monsters, making people feel frightened.
Laocao was wearing night clothes, squatting on a hill overlooking the valley below, squinting his eyes.
There were agencies everywhere in the valley, but the valley owner did not relax for a moment. The patrols changed their guard regularly, and Luo Cao found the opportunity to change the guard and sneaked in based on his childhood memories.
Ruicao squinted her eyes as she looked at the cave she had just drilled into. She originally just wanted to try her luck, but she didn't expect that the hole here still existed.
The stone cave is at the innermost part of the wild animal farm, where most wild beasts gather. The entrance to the cave is very hidden and difficult for ordinary people to find. The wild beast farm only houses adult tigers, black bears and other large animals. Even grasshoppers can barely get in. The wild beasts naturally come out. Not going.
Laocao held her breath and moved carefully against the wall, fearing that she might accidentally wake up a wild beast, otherwise she would become a piece of meat on the chopping board.
After leaving the beast field, we entered the valley. The valley was laid out with the Bagua formation. It was obviously not the original formation here.
Laocao memorized the formula in his mind and avoided the patrols and came to a pavilion.
Laocao looked at the five-foot-high pavilion behind the stone pier, took a deep breath, and walked lightly to the back of a pillar.
After ten years, she still came back.
"Hey, after all these years, why are you still so careless?"
Suddenly a suffocating voice sounded from behind, causing Cao Cao's back to stiffen, and he struck back with the sword in his hand without any thought.
The man who spoke was faster. He came to the front of Laocao with a flick of his feet. His left hand quickly grabbed Laocao's powerful arm, and his right leg pressed Laocao against the pillar behind him.
The sound of the two fighting quickly attracted the attention of others, and the light of the torch also allowed Chaocao to see clearly the appearance of the person in front of him.
"What? You don't recognize me anymore?" Gong Shaojin let out a low laugh in his chest, looking at the person in front of him, his eyes were like a thick fog that could not be cleared away.
"Are you...Gong Shaojin?" Luocao hesitated for a long time and finally spoke.
Gong Shaojin frowned, as if he was not satisfied with this title.
"Valley Master, are you okay?" A person below asked, looking cautiously at the girl restrained by Gong Shaojin.
Gong Shaojin waved his hand and said, "This is my old friend, please step aside first."
The people below looked at each other and finally left with fists in their hands.
"It seems that Yaoyao hasn't forgotten me yet." Gong Shaojin's lips curled up, and when Jauca was unprepared, he bent down and carried her on his shoulders.
"Gong Shaojin." Luocao's eyes widened, and he hit Gong Shaojin's back with his fist, using seven points of force. However, Gong Shaojin seemed not to feel the pain, and laughed and carried Luocao away. The room next to the beast yard.
The room was built on a rock overlooking the wild beast field. There was only one wooden house, which was somewhat incompatible with the identity of the valley owner.
Gong Shaojin carefully put Laicao down, using the light of the candlelight as if he wanted to see Laocao into his bones.
Luocao frowned and clenched the sword in her hand. If this person dared to take a step forward, she would have to get the thing even if she risked her life.
"Yaoyao, I regret it." Gong Shaojin lowered his eyebrows like a loyal dog.
Luocao glanced at him in confusion, but he didn't expect that the subject would change so quickly.
"What?" asked Cao Cao.
Gong Shaojin suddenly hugged Luocao, fearing that she would leave again in the next second, and said in an anxious voice: "Yaoyao, I regret helping you escape. My father is dead, can you come back?"
She didn't know how he came here all these years. Every time he fell asleep, he could dream of that thin figure leaving without hesitation.
She didn't even look back at him.
Xia Cao frowned and began to struggle hard: "Gong Shaojin, please let me go quickly, you are hurting me."
I don't know how long it took for Gong Shaojin to reluctantly let go of the trouble and began to slowly tell what happened in the past few years. When he mentioned this house, Gong Shaojin's mouth felt a little warm: "This house belongs to you."
I built it after I left because I wanted to wait for you to come back. Only the two of us know the entrance to the cave. I will wait here every day for you to come back from there."
At this point, there was a hint of bitterness in the corner of his mouth: "But I didn't expect that I would have to wait for ten years."
Xiucao was stunned for a moment, was he waiting for her to come back?
Why? And...it was a wild animal farm. If she had no choice this time, she would never drill that hole in her life. She cherished her life.
Luocao clasped his fists: "Thank you for helping me leave, do you want me to repay you?" Luocao looked at Gong Shaojin.
Gong Shaojin didn't react for a moment: "What?"
Laocao continued: "If you want me to repay your kindness, there is one condition. You give me the record of the transaction between Shensi Yue and you."
Gong Shaojin's original sad mood was dissipated by Luo Cao's words. He couldn't help but smile, pointed at himself and then at Luo Cao and said, "If I want you to repay your kindness, do you have to agree to one condition?"
Xia Cao nodded with clear eyes.
"Is there any way I can repay my kindness?" If that was possible, he wouldn't mind agreeing to this condition.
Ruicao nodded again: "I can repay the favor in any way." She must help her young lady get the evidence.
"Then marry me." Gong Shaojin followed her words.
Xucao was stunned for a moment, and then realized: "No."
Gong Shaojin raised his eyebrows: "Didn't you say that you can repay your kindness in any way?"
How come this girl doesn’t mean what she says?
He blushed in embarrassment: "Except for this."
Unexpectedly, Gong Shaojin acted out of common sense and started to behave badly: "Then I don't want you to repay the favor."
Zaocao raised his head, a little anxiously, and grabbed Gong Shaojin's arm: "How can you not do it? I can do anything, you think about it again."
Gong Shaojin acted rogue: "But what if I just want you to be my wife?"
Liu Cao glanced at Gong Shaojin and let go of his hand: "Then I won't repay the favor. Give me the files on Shen Shenyue's deal with you."
He almost got involved. She took the initiative to repay the favor, not him begging her to repay the favor. The initiative was in her hands.
I thought about it innocently.
Gong Shaojin opened his mouth and the elders of the group were speechless at this moment.
Jaucao glanced at him, feeling a little guilty. Her request was indeed too much, but the young lady needed evidence to be justified.
"I want Shen Shen Yue's transaction files." Laocao reiterated.
Gong Shaojin smiled evilly, waved his long sleeves, and locked the door: "Yaoyao, let alone the transaction files, I'm afraid you won't even be able to get out of this door today."
Xucao's eyes darkened, and just as he was about to draw his sword, Gong Shaojin spoke up at the right time: "Do you think you can beat me?"
