014: Mingzhe protects himself (thanks to the cute main girl Gao Mei +2)
Walk to the steps under the corridor, pray for good, raise your hands and take off your bamboo hat, bend down and put the clogs side by side, lift up your clothes and step on the steps with bare feet. Take off the water ladle hanging on the wooden pillar and scoop up the water from the stone basin under the corridor.
The rain washes away the mud on my feet.
Shen Tang also took off his clogs and subconsciously looked for indoor shoes. He searched around and couldn't find any replacements. Qi Shan rolled up the dirty clothes and tied them to the crook of his legs, and took out a special handkerchief from his sleeves.
Wipe off the water stains on your feet and hand the water ladle to Shen Tang.
The movement of the two was not slow, and the middle-aged man had already taken off his pair of wooden clogs that did not fit well and had worn soles. He stepped on the wooden steps with his bare feet, leaving behind a few wet footprints with muddy water - although the courtyard was very clean.
It was clean, and many places were paved with stones, but if it rained heavily, there would still be muddy puddles, and it would be easy to get your feet dirty. Seeing Shen and Tang busy together, he laughed out loud.
"You two can do whatever you want, there's no need to go to such trouble."
When Shen Tang heard what the man said, he washed his feet with two gourds, smiled, threw the gourd into the stone basin, and stepped up the wooden steps with a clanking sound.
There is a bit of severity in the prayers.
"Youli, where are your etiquette?"
Shen Tang smiled and waved to him: "Don't lobbyists do as they please? Brother, you are too polite. Why don't you come up and take shelter from the rain?"
Qi Shan took a deep breath, as if he had nothing to do with Shen Tang's move, and turned around to apologize to the middle-aged man. The middle-aged man was quite well-mannered, smiling all the time, saying "nothing" several times, and there was no trace of a trace on his face.
The son was not happy, but praised Shen Tang for his lively temperament.
Qi Shan sighed: "But my brother is already 12 years old this year, and he is still so unsteady. I am worried that he will suffer a big loss in the future..."
The middle-aged man's expression froze slightly.
"Brother-in-law? Is this a young man?"
Qishan nodded: "Yes, I am the youngest brother in the family. His appearance has taken after my mother's, and because of his male-female appearance, he has often caused misunderstandings over the years."
The middle-aged man sneered twice and said that he had made a mistake and mistakenly mistook the boy for the girl Jiao'e.
After saying that, he led the two of them to a side room and asked Shen Tang and the others to wait for the rain here. If the rain did not stop, they could stay there for the night.
The middle-aged man suddenly said: "Remembering that there is still a pot of ginger soup warming in the east kitchen, why don't you two drink some ginger soup to warm yourself up?"
I crossed my arms and thanked the middle-aged man.
The man said: "You two, wait for a moment."
As the footsteps gradually faded away, Shen Tang put away his cynical smile and looked serious: "This man lies and is full of flaws. No matter whether he goes to the East Kitchen to serve ginger soup or not, we have to be careful."
Qishan: "Of course we have to be vigilant. Muramasa said that Ayan had a brain disease and was abandoned in Zhuangzi since he was born. He ignored her and ignored her, which caused many servants to be careless. This can also be seen from the children's clothes hanging to dry in the courtyard.
But this man said that Ayan was his son, ha!"
Shen Tang walked around the room, touching the furnishings in the room with his fingers from time to time. He rubbed his fingers and found that his fingertips were clean and free of dust.
There were two neatly arranged bookcases near the window, one large and one small. The bookshelves were used as partitions to divide the room into several different areas. Shen Tang picked up the bamboo slips on the table and opened them to find that they were for children's enlightenment.
There are both adult handwriting and children's graffiti.
She said: "The cleaning is quite clean. It seems that the servants are not not working at all... It's just that on this rainy day, the wind and rain are so strong that it can blow the hut into the sky, but no one comes out to take in the clothes hanging in the courtyard. This
It’s very unreasonable.”
Qi Shan said calmly: "Also, that man was dressed as a scholar, but he had a fierce look, fierce eyes, and blood on his body. He said he was a scholar more like a reckless man, and he was full of lies. I'm afraid it's not that he didn't want to accept it.
, but unable to collect..."
In other words, I have no life to collect it.
Shen Tang raised his eyebrows: "A bandit?"
Qishan said: "The current situation is turbulent, and it is not uncommon for people to fall into the trap of being bandits, robbing homes and homes."
Not only is it not uncommon, it has even become the only means of livelihood for some people, and it can even lead a whole village to "get rich".
"So it's a very bad time."
"It is very likely that no one will survive. He is either a bandit or a thief. Anyway, he is not the owner of this village."
After looking for Ayan, he didn't find it, but instead ran into a murderous incident.
Shen Tang took a breath of air.
Qishan said funnyly: "Mr. Shen Xiaolang, are you afraid?"
Even he himself didn't believe what he said.
Shen Tang sat down on the mat and blinked: "I am a good citizen who abides by the law. How can I not be afraid of these criminals who are very likely to be extremely vicious and kill everyone? Mr. Qi, we are now in the wolf's den. We are hungry wolves.
A plate of lunch…”
As he spoke, he took out the hatchet stuck in his waist.
The hatchet was hidden from the middle-aged man by his clothes.
Qi Shan didn't bring out his sword, so the only thing the two of them could rely on was this hatchet. Holding the handle of the knife, she had a sense of security. In fact, she couldn't figure it out now, why should she stay at home alone?
An otaku painter experiences such exciting things?
although--
Although she killed an official and calmly accepted the reality afterwards, she thought it was self-defense. Coupled with the remaining factors in the body, she became a homebody who could not lift it with her hands or carry it on her shoulders.
Such a fierce and cold-blooded side.
She is very friendly in person.
After all, what bad intentions can there be in an artist who is angry and dares not speak out when the editor urges him to submit a manuscript?
Qishan: "..."
"We have entered the wolf's den, but we still don't know who is the hungry wolf." When he said the four words "obey the law and obey the law" from Shen Tang's mouth, his expression became numb, and he unceremoniously broke down the situation and said with a smile, "
A good citizen who abides by the law will not become a fugitive."
Unexpectedly, Shen Tang said: "Mr. Qi didn't know something, and I was wronged. If I died on the distribution road, or on a collapsed building in Xiaocheng Jiaofang, someone from Qingtian would find out that I was still there."
Such an innocent person, but he has passed away by then, leaving only regrets. In order to prevent this scene from coming true, and to defend the justice of the law, I have to save my own life, and it is reasonable to be a fugitive."
Qishan: "..."
He looked at Shen Xiaolangjun who was talking eloquently, and lamented that he had lived for a long time, but his face was not as thick as that of a young boy.
Just as he was about to say something, the smile on Shen Tang's face suddenly disappeared. He straightened up and looked in the direction of the door. He raised his hand and put it to his lips to signal that he would not say anything. After a while, heavy footsteps came closer and closer, and the middle-aged man held his head in front of the door.
Come over with two bowls of steaming ginger soup.
"You two have been waiting for a long time."
Qi Shan and Shen Tang nodded in thanks.
Under the gaze of the middle-aged man, Shen and Tang held up their respective bowls, lowered their eyes to their lips, and were about to open their lips and drink.
Seeing that the two of them were not on guard at all, the middle-aged man was overjoyed. However, just as the corner of his lips was about to raise a hint of sarcasm, who knew the next second a bowl of steaming ginger soup was splashed on his face, followed by the short table flying
Get up and hit the door in front of you.
Pray for kindness and pour the soup, Shen Tang flips the table.
Then--
Qi Shan quietly retreated behind Shen Tang, and Dan Ding calmly said: "Know the male, guard the female, and retreat when the situation cannot be avoided. This is the wise way to protect yourself."
