"Why, you're scared to death, but you still don't believe it?"
"I believe you, this must be something you can do."
"Hey, you know me so well?"
The young master rolled his legs off the couch, spread them out on the ground, bent his waist and stretched his neck, like a very imposing man. I don't know who he learned it from. Before the two of them responded, he added:
"What, have you checked? Judging from your half-informed appearance, it doesn't look like the former eldest lady sent you to kill me. Anyway, that bitch asked us to poison her to death a long time ago. Who sent you here? My father
Business enemies? How much money do they give you two? We can give you more. Even if you want to act, it's not impossible if you cooperate."
Although the young master seemed to have guessed in the wrong direction, the two of them did not correct it for the time being. Xie Yan wanted to see what other fantastic ideas this twelve-year-old could have in his head. She Ji wanted to know even more.
, why would he do this.
"If we are really here to kill you, do you still dare to cooperate with us in blackmailing your father? You are very courageous. You are not afraid that we will fake it and kill you for real. Besides, why should we listen to you, little brat?
If so?"
She Ji didn't really question him, he just chatted casually with interest to see what he could say.
"It doesn't matter what you want to think. I'm a little tired of living in this big house all the time." As he said, he really yawned, and then he continued slowly, "It's very boring - there are so many mediocrities around me.
Incompetent people. After scolding them at first, some people still dare to resist. Resistance is interesting! But let me talk
They didn't want to be more serious, just a little more fierce and vicious, and they had nothing to say. Ever since a bastard who dared to hit me had his hands and feet cut off and died shortly after hanging on a tree, no one dared
You're contradicting me again. What are you afraid of? It's boring. The rest of these losers can only cry after saying a few words. It's really boring."
"Did you kill him?" Xie Yan asked.
"How can it be killing?" The young master became serious. "It was just a scratch on the skin. If you hang for a while, you will die easily. It's because of their poor health. My father handed me the knife to let me vent my anger. He was also the one who gave me the knife."
He was told to hang him. Ah, maybe I accidentally cut it elsewhere and the blood flowed out. After all, when I dragged him away, the soil on the ground was red and sticky."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk..."
Xie Yan shook his head and sighed, but did not comment. She Ji glanced at her and said calmly:
"As a human being, you are quite calm. This kind of thing is considered a heinous crime for humans."
"That's what I said. But isn't the origin of evil his father's excessive pampering? People are also extremely bad, and they are even worse than most monsters. And people can turn people into bad ones, and even turn them into monsters.
.”
She seemed to mean something, but She Ji didn't care much about the origin of her words for the time being. He stared at the young master and asked:
"You feel bored, don't you? In your life so far, even getting rich overnight is not a big ups and downs, right?"
"Of course." The young master propped his arms back on the bed and said lazily, "It's all what I expected. There's nothing to be surprised about. Isn't everything in my calculations?"
It is hard to believe that these things and these words come from the mouth of a twelve-year-old human boy. After hearing these words, She Ji's eyes lit up, as if he was not seeing a strange human kid, but a strange human kid.
It's another person.
"If you have the opportunity in the future, we can talk about how you persuaded your mother to make a decision, and how you planned to kill the former eldest wife. All of this is indeed somewhat inconsistent with what we have investigated. It seems that you have done a good job.
Cover. But time does not allow it now. Don’t worry, we are not here to kill you this time, nor will we kill your parents, nor anyone."
The young master suddenly sat up straight and leaned forward slightly, looking very interested.
"Oh? Then what do you want to do? You'd better be interesting and don't let me down."
"We'll take you away."
"...Take me away?"
This was indeed an unexpected thing for the young master. He showed a rare surprise, even though it was just a little bit.
"Give me a reason."
"Don't you hate boredom the most?"
Looking at the two unfamiliar faces in front of him, the young master sat there and said nothing. The woman's long braid seemed to be given life, twisting and moving, and the tail of the hair raised a small tip. The whole look,
It was like a living tail. The man's exposed eye turned into a vertical pupil, and a slender message leaked from his thin lips, making a hissing sound.
Only then did the young master realize that he seemed to have met someone extraordinary.
A few days of boring and ordinary days have passed. There is less than a quarter of the road left for the three of them to reach Qinglize.
The goal is in front of them. These days, they have not encountered any big winds or waves, or experienced anything more bizarre. Even if they have, they are just minor troubles, and they will never be more beyond imagination than the illusory village. Ye Lingyu
Occasionally I complain that I am too tanned, but in fact
She's not that dark. Her current skin color is just about the same as Xie Zhe's, and among the adventurous Jianghu people, Xie Zhe is by no means a dark-skinned type. It's just that Han Sheng is ridiculously white, and Ling Huan takes it.
He was just setting the standard. But from the beginning, she didn't seem to be any fairer than Han Zhang.
This is Lanling Town. The town is very large and has the largest population in the entire county. However, the town is not as good as the city in many considerations, and it is the most prosperous place in the entire county. The population of this county is naturally
There are more than ten thousand people, but some large-scale cities are more densely populated and far more developed than this. The people here are living very hard, especially the people in Lanling Town, but nothing seems to be improving.
These main pieces of information were chatted with the proprietress while they were eating noodles in a noodle shop. It was not lunch time and there were very few people. It was only because they were hungry that they stopped to rest and wanted to ask questions about this place. The proprietress was enthusiastic and talkative.
Probably because it's nothing
Who is coming? She never stopped talking for a moment. She said that foreigners are rare visitors here, but they don’t often stay here. They all pass through here and go to Qinglize. Walking in the same direction,
It's Biliyuan. It's a vast grassland that stretches as far as the eye can see.
"Are you going to the Death Shadow Pavilion?" The chubby proprietress laughed, "I can tell as soon as I see you that you are going to ask for help."
When she was talking, she stared at Han Shang almost the whole time. Ling Huan always felt awkward, but he himself looked indifferent. Maybe he had been used to it for a long time - he was a vixen after all. As for Xie Zhe, he didn't have any objections.
, the other person had no objection to the taste. He would have been even more satisfied if the landlady hadn't accidentally missed him when serving the noodle soup.
"Hey, I'm sorry, sir." The landlady smiled apologetically, "You've been silent here. I thought there was no one here."
Xie Zhe nodded and did not protest. After all, he was the one who was most accustomed to it.
"People don't like to stay here for too long. It's too poor." The strong proprietress put the vat of noodle soup on the ground, took a breath, and continued, "And it's too far. This place can't be said to be remote, but the road is not easy to walk.
People inside don’t like to go out, and people from outside don’t like to come in. If it hadn’t been for Qing Lize’s incident, I’m afraid there wouldn’t be a single outsider coming to our town for several years.”
"Don't the county magistrate think of a way to organize people to build roads?"
Xie Zhe asked, but the landlady just stared at Han Zhang, as if she didn't hear his question. So Han Zhang repeated Xie Zhe's question.
"If the county magistrate organizes people to build wide lanes, and people and horses travel frequently, this place will definitely become rich."
"Oh, we don't have a county magistrate here."
"No magistrate?"
Xie Zhe asked subconsciously, but the landlady didn't seem to hear him until Han Shang raised a question.
"Is there no one in charge here? Although the county magistrates in many places are vacant, someone should take care of the situation in this county."
"Oh, who says it's not the case, sir?" This time the landlady heard it again, "It can't be said that there is no one in charge. The person in charge is a part-time magistrate, known as the magistrate of Fei. As for his name, no one remembers it.
He seems to be a well-educated and well-educated scholar. He listens to and talks about what the people below him say, but... he has not seen any improvement over the years.
. He discussed raising taxes with everyone several times, saying that he wanted to do something to make the town rich, but there was no movement anymore. I guess it was because the things were not done and were in vain. We
Where can I go to beg for money? It’s like picking up wool. After a while, a little bit comes off, and when it grows out, you pick up a little bit more. The sheep won’t freeze to death in one fell swoop, but its flesh will ache for a while, ugh!”
The landlady sighed heavily. She seemed to have been holding back for many years, but she couldn't break out. Maybe everyone in the town thought so, but she couldn't really argue with the county magistrate. What she did here was a bit uncertain. Planting crops.
Well, the area of saline-alkali land is a bit too big; for planting fruit trees, the soil is still not suitable; for doing business, it has no characteristics and no good roads. Money cannot flow in from outside, it is all money between counties and towns.
Turning it over and over, putting it from the left pocket into the right pocket, there is no difference.
After that, we chatted about other things. Except that Xie Zhe was ignored and gave up struggling, everything went smoothly. Xie Zhe usually knew that he had this inexplicable "magic power" and would not take the initiative to talk. He probably got along with Ling Huan.
After a long time, they had the illusion that others could finally see them. However, thanks to Han Chang's face, they actually didn't spend any money on this meal.
Before leaving, they heard the last thing the landlady said. Because the magistrate couldn't leave, he always called some people to go to Qinglize to visit Shiying Pavilion on his behalf. He didn't say what it was or what he was looking for.
He just wrote a letter and asked someone to deliver it to him. However, at least no one here has ever found Death Shadow Pavilion. So he will also entrust the help of outsiders who are going to go, and he will be rewarded heavily.
"We're not short of money, right?"
Ye Lingquan suddenly stopped and looked at Han Shang with a sad face. Now, the other two were a little panicked. They had kept asking the girl if the money was enough earlier, and she always said yes. No, there is a paragraph
