177, Castle Peak Building Outside Building
Before the soft and glutinous osmanthus cake was eaten, Lin Xun saw a familiar figure walking in. He hurriedly stuffed all the osmanthus cake into his mouth, and his bulging cheeks quickly returned to their original state.
Witnessing the process of swallowing at a rapid speed, Feng Yumai's feet in the air were slightly stuck. When he walked in front of him, Lin Xun's nose moved and wondered: "How come there is the smell of sesame cake on you?"
Feng Yu looked at the corner of his mouth with some powder from osmanthus cake and said coldly: "You should know it very well."
Lin Xun took out his already flattened purse, "I listened to you. The farthest place I have been to in the past two days is the market."
Feng Yu did not ask him to take the remaining money and handed him over to a veil: "Wipe it clean."
Facing the white veil, Lin Xun shook his head: "It's so wasteful."
After saying that, he licked the corner of his mouth and licked the remaining scum with the tip of his tongue.
Feng Yu looked at his subconscious actions and his eyes darkened.
Before he could think much of his thoughts rose, Lin Xun pushed the plate aside and asked about the serious matter: "Why did you suddenly think of going to the Medicine Valley?"
Perhaps because Lin Xun aroused her appetite, Feng Yu picked up a piece of pastry, took a bite and frowned slightly, not quite understanding why Zheng Cai prefers this kind of too sweet food.
After barely finishing the meal, he spoke lightly: "You should ask me this question a few days ago."
Lin Xun: "I wanted to ask when I left Jedi Temple, but later you stuffed a bag of silver for me and forgot."
Feng Yu looked at him, but he didn't care about this issue. Lin Xun is a person who is very good at dealing with people. When dealing with him, he also has to be responsible for his ability.
"Abbot Jueku said that he accidentally heard Aunt Xiao reveal that the Xiao family hired several escorts last month, and they hired the Fulong Escort Agency, which is quite famous in the world."
Lin Xun: "Did these darts be lucky separately?"
Feng Yu nodded: "Aunt Xiao probably doesn't know the inside story. She went to the temple to burn incense because her husband was a little weird recently and was a little worried."
Lin Xun: "You rushed to the Medicine Valley to show that it is the final destination."
"I'm lucky. I happened to catch a raft when I went there."
“What is shipped?”
"people."
Lin Xun was stunned.
Feng Yu: "It looks like I've just died in a big wooden box."
Lin Xun stood up and said, "If I guess correctly, I should be one of the families who have recently been funeral."
He opened the window, and the heat in the room dissipated a little. Looking at the green wood outside the window, his mind suddenly became brighter: "The boss of Juhe Building once said that these young people who were in the funeral might have been secretly transported out to do the experiment of the Thousand Corpse pit. In my opinion, there is another possibility."
"There are records in the book that people who resurrected by the Thousand Corpse Pits will be extremely cruel and even eat human flesh. Hu Yankun only used more than 100 corpses to resurrect, and the side effects will be greater. These people are likely to be used as a supply of some kind of food."
Feng Yu: "The Fulong Escort Agency directly sent the box into the Evil Wind Tower, and his hands were empty. If this is true, Hu Yankun is still a little brainy."
Lin Xun smiled: "Are you saying Hu Yankun hid in the evil wind tower again later?"
As he spoke, he gently rubbed his right finger abdomen, and this action often means that his mood is not as good as it seems:
"It's indeed a good idea. The most dangerous place is the most complete place. Who would have thought that he would hide back to that place?"
"Hide in the mouse hole, I will contact the outside world sooner or later," Feng Yu walked to his side, his vision was blocked by the green shade in front of him. "It is not difficult to follow the clues."
"Isn't there a great opportunity right now?"
Feng Yu frowned: "Cao family?"
"The second son of the Cao family probably won't last long. The Buddha said that saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda," Lin Xun curled his smile: "It seems that I need to go out in person to help me accumulate blessings."
...
Feng Yu did not ask Lin Xun's plan in detail. In some matters, they would unconsciously reach a high level of tacit understanding. Without taking immediate action, Lin Xun first used the remaining broken silver to eat from the street to the end of the street. Each family would chat with the boss for a few words. When the last family was about to solve the problem of a bowl of noodles. When the boss came to collect the bowls, Lin Xun suddenly said: "I heard that someone had been eating on credit recently and didn't pay."
The boss was stunned, "I'm all a small business, and I don't have credit."
"Is that right?" Lin Xun asked him to make a bowl of noodle soup for him, and took a sip of it and moistened his throat, "But I heard from the boss in front that there was a name Cao recently, what did Cao come from..."
"You are talking about the eldest son of the Cao family." The boss suddenly realized.
Lin Xun slapped the table, "It's him."
"I have never encountered any credit incidents, but I heard that the eldest son of the Cao family has had a lot of trouble in the casino recently."
Lin Xun started talking to him, "Didn't he say he had been driven out of the mansion long ago?"
"You don't know anything about this," the boss said to him in a low voice: "This is not the second young master in the mansion, no one can do it. The family business must be inherited, so he recruited the eldest son to return to the mansion. The Cao family is still rich. Since the eldest son learned that the mansion will be inherited by himself, he will go back and forth from the casino all day long, and has disputes with many customers."
“Which casino?”
"Qinghe Gambling House."
Qinghe Gambling is geographically located in the north of the city, far away from the market. It has good relationships with the upper and lower levels on weekdays, so the government turned a blind eye. Although Qinghe Gambling's name is elegant, there have been many bloody events inside.
When Lin Xun was at the door, he heard the sound of throwing sieves inside. As soon as he was about to enter, he saw a person being thrown out. The man was in his thirties, his eyes were turbid and fat, and his steps were scattered. At first glance, he seemed to be often lingering in the fireworks and was hollowed out too early.
He staggered back several steps until he held the pole and barely stabilized his body. The man kept scolding: "Do you know who I am? I am the eldest son of the Cao family, only ten thousand taels, and for me, I can't even be a cow's hair!"
The person who threw him out spit on the ground, "I can't even take out a thousand taels, I'll have ten thousand taels left, get out!"
The man clapped his hands and walked back and said, "You wait for me, see if I..."
"Your Excellency is Mr. Cao?"
The man stopped, his eyes rolled, staring suspiciously at the person who suddenly appeared, looking like a weak scholar: "A good dog doesn't block the way."
Lin Xun was not angry, but smiled friendly at him, "I'm Zheng Cai, I want to make friends with Mr. Cao."
"I don't care about any friends!"
After saying that, he hit Lin Xun's shoulder and was about to leave.
"Mr. Cao's future is unlimited, but now he is worried about a mere 10,000 taels. I really can't stand it."
The voice behind him came at the right time, and the man stopped and turned around, "Can you pay the debt for me?"
Lin Xun: "In the future, you will inherit a wealth of thousands of yuan in the future, and it will not be too late to repay Mr. Zheng."
Hearing this, the man changed his attitude, and the flesh on his face was piled up with smiles, "I made a friend, I've made it."
Lin Xun made a 'please' posture, "It's still early, why not go to Chengnan to have a drink first?"
Of course, you don’t have to go to the south of the city to drink, but the best flower building is in the south of the city. The man knew this well at first glance, and nodded in agreement without hesitation.
...
In the next few days, Lin Xun's frequency of food would be reduced a lot. However, the scale of snacks on this street has begun to take shape. Nearby people come here every few days. There are also morning markets, which can be regarded as a new wonder in the imperial city.
I didn't return overnight last night. Lin Xun came into the mansion after breakfast, and he was holding a box of freshly bought snacks in his hand.
Feng Yu was not in the room. Lin Xun thought for a while and walked towards the study again. The door was not closed. When he was about to approach, he saw Fang Yunzheng reporting something with a serious expression on his face.
Lin Xun made a hand and knocked on the door symbolically. He saw Feng Yu nodding before walking in, and placed the snack that he had not had time to unpack on the table: "Please eat."
Then he looked at Fang Yun: "Why are you sad?"
Fang Yun didn't say anything, and said Feng Yu: "The Fulong Escort Agency is ready to escort the eighth escort this month."
Lin Xun said 'oh', without much reaction, stretched out and said, "Just come and take a look."
Feng Yu: "I remember you said you were going to save someone before you went out."
Lin Xun nodded, "Of course, this is the original intention."
"Who is in the box?"
"I used some small tricks, to put it nicely, called stealing the sky and changing the sun," Lin Xun didn't sleep much last night. At this moment, he looked like a boneless fish, leaning softly on the bookshelf. "It's thanks to the little girl who served the old lady in the Cao family. She secretly agreed to Mr. Cao and helped a lot."
Fang Yun, who had not spoken, seemed to figure something out, "No wonder he heard that the Cao Mansion had a fire last night early in the morning. You took advantage of the chaos to replace the people?"
He approached Lin Xun, "Is that eldest son Cao still alive?"
Lin Xun: "I will take back one life from the King of Hell and I will pay it back one."
Fang Yun was stunned. This was the first time he had seen Lin Xun like this. He had a warm message in his eyes, but his expression was extremely cruel.
"People are still alive." Feng Yu suddenly said.
Fang Yun could not tell the truth for a while, and looked at Lin Xun with proof.
Lin Xun shrugged, "I'm alive for the time being, but I'm stunned, and the box only has two breathable holes open. It's not certain how long I can live."
In an instant, Fang Yun breathed a sigh of relief. It was not because of the life and death of the eldest son Cao, but because Lin Xun looked too strange just now. He looked lazy and even indifferent now, so he looked like Zheng Cai he knew.
Lin Xun suddenly leaned over and lay on the table, "When Fulong Escort Agency was escorting, were you sending someone or following him secretly."
Feng Yu: "Go in person."
Lin Xun pursed his lower lip and said, "Take me with you too."
"impossible."
Lin Xun: "I promise..."
“No negotiation.”
Two days later, before dawn, Feng Yu was ready to set off with Fang Yun. As soon as he left the mansion, he saw a donkey tied directly opposite him, with flowers, birds, and vegetables sitting on the ground, and people coming to the morning market.
Feng Yu: "What would happen if Lin Xunduo was allowed to stay alone in the mansion for a few days?"
Fang Yun: "…There are also locations on the street corners that can be opened into a vegetable market."
Feng Yu pressed his temple, turned around and walked back to the room, lifted the quilt, and shook off the person who stuck to it like an octopus.
"Get up and put on your clothes."
Lin Xun's eyes opened a crack, "What are you doing?"
“Go to Medicine Valley.”
Lin Xun turned over and turned his back to him: "No, I booked ten baskets of crab roe buns in advance yesterday."
"Go away by yourself, or should I let the snow pedal in and take you away?"
Lin Xun sat up and stared at him.
Feng Yu: "Taixue Ju has been bored with Ma Peng for a while, and I believe it is willing to do so."
