Song Tian sat there bored.

Taking shelter in the cellar, the exit above my head was blocked by Xie Yunzhe, and it seemed that soil was covered on it!

She was wrapped in Xie Yunzhe's large robe, so she didn't feel cold.

There was a bean-sized candle lit on the small table in front of him.

At first she was afraid that there wasn't enough air in the cellar and she would suffocate to death.

But when he got up and checked, he found that there was a narrow passage in the cellar, which was winding and extended to nowhere.

There was a cold breeze blowing in the passage, which seemed to lead to the outside.

Perhaps the owner of the cellar left the vent deliberately to prevent accidents.

In this way, Song Tian will not be afraid anymore.

She sat down calmly and kept the candle light for Xie Yunzhe.

"Is he crazy? He actually believes this nonsense!"

After staring at the candle for a while, Song Tian suddenly felt that he was really stupid.

And no one knows what Xie Yunzhe is doing!

After an unknown amount of time, a few dog barks suddenly sounded outside the exit above my head!

There was also a man's scolding:

"What are you dithering about!

Our target tonight is on the mountain, don't waste time here!"

Song Tian stood up puzzled.

Why does this voice sound familiar?

But before she could think about it, the man and the dog continued to walk forward, and gradually she could no longer hear any noise.

Peace returned to the cellar.

Song Tian held his chin up in boredom.

Thinking in my mind:

If only I had a cell phone...

Xie Boyong was the first to arrive at Kuixing Pavilion.

He called more than ten students and wanted them to witness the dirty deeds of Xie Yunzhe and Huang Jiadong together.

"Master, it's dark in Kuixing Pavilion today, how can there be a poetry competition?"

A student asked in confusion.

Xie Boyong stroked his beard calmly.

"Maybe I heard it wrong."

There was no sign of doubt on his face, and he directed the students in a domineering manner:

"Since you are here, you can see that the Kuixing Pavilion has been in disrepair for a long time and is covered with dust. You can clean it up.

Also show respect to Lord Kuixing!"

"Master, today is the Lantern Festival, and everyone is going to the Lantern Festival to enjoy the lanterns..."

The students naturally did not want to waste time in this dark Kuixing Pavilion, and some people spoke out in objection.

Chen Ming hid in the darkness and remained silent.

Originally, Xie Boyong didn't let him come.

But he has other tasks tonight!

"Um?

How dare you disobey the Master's words?

Do you still want to pass this year's assessment? "

Xie Boyong frowned and threatened without any reservation.

Most of the students in the external colleges are not very good at studying, but their families want them to be successful.

If the teacher fails the assessment, he will definitely be severely beaten by his father.

The group of students didn't dare to speak anymore and just listened to Xie Boyong's instructions.

"Go clean up the backyard first, and remember not to make any noise!"

He pinched the handkerchief in his sleeve.

If Huang Jiadong comes first.

He can even extort some money first!

The students went to the back hall full of complaints.

Xie Boyong hid in the shadow of the side hall, waiting for his target to come.

Huang Jiadong took a carriage all the way to the foot of the mountain.

Ask Seventeen who has been waiting for a long time:

"Xie Lang...are you up there?"

He was serious this time.

If Xie Yunzhe goes back on his word again, he won't have to show any mercy to him anymore.

Seventeen stepped forward, bowed, and nodded:

"Yes."

Originally, he wanted to go up the mountain with them, but Huang Jiadong thought about it and was afraid that his Xie Lang would get angry again if he knew about it.

So just let Seventeen watch at the foot of the mountain.

Huang Jiadong's excitement was beyond words:

“It really went up!

But he is alone?"

Seventeen nodded again.

"It is indeed a person!"

He walked here half a quarter of an hour ago.

It was half an hour earlier than the time they had agreed on.

I saw Xie Yunzhe sitting under a tree to rest.

After a while, he went up the mountain alone.

Seventeen was also wondering.

Could it be that someone as noble as Xie Yunzhe is really willing to devote himself to being the mistress of his employer?

But he is indeed a person.

And he is a scholar who is not even capable of tying a chicken.

I'm afraid I don't have the energy to do anything fancy.

"Okay, all of you wait at the foot of the mountain, and no one is allowed to follow us!"

Huang Jiadong was so excited that he almost danced, and he went up the mountain with his slightly bloated body swaying.

……

Song Tian and others were almost falling asleep.

Suddenly I heard some movement at the exit above my head!

Xie Yunzhe dug up the soil on the cellar lid and opened the manhole cover.

"Miss?"

He leaned forward and jumped down, his face a little pale from the cold winter wind, but his expression was excited.

Song Tian stood up and went over to greet him:

"Look, your candle is not out."

Song Tian stretched her limbs, still sleepy, and said.

Xie Yunzhe chuckled:

"Thank you for your hard work, ma'am!

Today is a great success.”

As he said this, he reached out and brushed his sleeves.

Song Tian then realized that he was fine when he left, but now he came back looking a little dusty.

Not only was there a lot of dry grass and fallen leaves on his body and face, but his trouser legs were also scratched by something!

“Aren’t there steps leading to the Kuixing Temple?

You look like you rolled in the wild!"

Song Tian helped him pick the fallen leaves out of his hair and brushed off the grass roots on his clothes, and asked curiously.

Xie Yunzhe shook his body indifferently:

"The road was too dark and I accidentally went into the woods."

As he spoke, he shivered from the cold.

Song Tian quickly took off the robe wrapped around her and returned it to him:

“Put it on quickly.

I'm not cold either, don't get frozen!"

He has to go to school tomorrow, and it would be bad if he caught a cold.

Xie Yunzhe took the clothes and put them on, then was about to leave with Song Tian.

"Are you tired, ma'am?"

Xie Yunzhe asked as he helped Song Tian to the ground.

Song Tian was naturally not tired.

"I didn't do any work. But you must be tired after climbing up and down in such a short time."

He said he would be back in a moment.

It seems like it didn't take much time.

The candle she had lit had not yet taken up the length of her thumb.

Xie Yunzhe was very energetic:

“I’m not tired!

While it's still early, would you like to go to the Lantern Festival with me?"

Song Tian hesitated.

She agreed to come to Kuixing Temple because she didn't want to join in the fun.

In the end, Lord Kuixing was not worshipped...

"I heard that many businesses set up lantern riddles at this year's Lantern Festival, and some even offered a prize of two taels of silver!"

Song Tian's eyes immediately lit up:

“Can you make money by guessing lantern riddles?”

Xie Yunzhe smiled and nodded:

"Yes, everyone hopes that business will be booming this year, and use this method to attract customers!"

Song Tian was already pulling his sleeve and walking back:

"You are the first in this case, you must be very good at guessing lantern riddles.

hurry up.

Any winnings I make will be used as pocket money for you!"

This way she can save her hard-earned money, which is also cost-effective.

Xie Yunzhe couldn't stop smiling when he saw his wife's greed for money.

……

Come to the lantern festival.

Each family's guessing game is already halfway through.

Song Tian picked up those with high jackpots and asked Xie Yunzhe to try them one by one.

Xie Yunzhe did not disappoint her.

He can give the answer accurately every time.

This made a shop owner pale:

"My dear lady, why don't you take your husband to try another store.

Our business is a small one and there aren't many people here.

After you come here, basically no one else will have anything to do!"

Song Tian took a handful of silver coins and various prizes she had won elsewhere, and complained disdainfully:

"Eh~

I really can't afford to play with it.

Let’s go and have a look somewhere else!”

Just as they were pulling Xie Yunzhe to leave, they saw Captain Zhang leading a group of detectives hurriedly passing through the crowd and running towards the outside of the city.

Traveling in a hurry.

Song Tian didn't even have time to go up and say hello.

I couldn't help but wonder, with the lantern festival tonight, it's easy for an accident to happen. Aren't the detectives patrolling the streets?

Why are you all going outside the city?

I heard someone mutter:

"Have you heard? It seems that there is another murder case at Kuixing Pavilion!"
