A group of people entered Quyang City and wanted to go directly to Lei's house, but Xia Mushu felt something was wrong.
"We are outsiders. As you said before, the Lei family cares about face the most. Some things may be easier to talk about without the presence of others. So many of us have gone to the Lei family, I'm afraid things will be even more difficult to talk about."
Mei Yingze thought about it and felt that it made sense, so he decided to arrange the inn first, and then he would take Mei Yingtao and Ye Wangcen to Lei's house together.
"I've already told my father about this in a letter, and he should come over too. If we really can't get the Lei family to agree, it should be more convenient for him to come." Mei Yingze looked at Ye Wangchen and said.
"I'm sorry to trouble you, it's all because of my willfulness." Ye Wangchen said.
"Mei Yingze." Xia Mushu pulled Mei Yingze aside: "Brother Ye definitely wants Brother Lei to go back, but you can't let the Lei family bully him at will. Watch and stop him."
When Lei Ye was able to leave home back then, he definitely didn't want to wrong Ye Wangcen.Now that he has passed away, if Ye Wangchen is still being bullied by his family, I am afraid that even if Lei Ye is under the nine springs, he will not be at ease.
"I will." Mei Yingze nodded.
"Also, if the Lei family uses Brother Lei to enter the ancestral grave to make some excessive demands, you have to stop Brother Ye."
At this moment, this matter is already Brother Ye's obsession. If the Lei family asks him to kill himself, he can do it.
"I understand." Mei Yingze patted Shumu on the shoulder, "After traveling for so long, you just need to take a rest. If the Lei family goes well, maybe we won't go back to the inn. Those two, Be careful, I have people watching outside my house."
"Don't worry, I'll be fine, you go." Xia Mushu nodded.
Seeing Mei Yingze and the others go out, Xia Mushu first went back to his room, feeling relieved: he finally left.
Although that set of rhetoric was indeed what he wanted in his heart, he also wanted to drive Mei Yingze away. After all, there were not many such opportunities, and he still had a lot of things he wanted to ask Xiao Xia.
When they arrived at the door of the two, Xia Mushu quickly tapped the acupoints of the guards outside.Then he took the medicine through the crack of the door, and waited until there was no movement in the room before opening the door and entering.
Walking in front of Xiao Xia, he took out the medicine bottle in his hand and fed a pill into it. After a while, he saw the person slowly waking up.
Xiao Xia shook her head in some puzzlement. When she saw Xia Mushu standing in front of her, she looked at the fainted little beggar, and she understood: "Young master."
"Are you really good at Kongjuejian?" Xia Mushu asked.
"Only five styles." Xiao Xia said.
Xia Mushu nodded, there is no flaw in this statement: "If you are from the Xia family, why don't I have any impression of you?"
"Because I am a dead soldier of the Xia family."
"Dead man? The Xia family still has this?" Xia Mushu was a little surprised.
"Yes, it's been there since the old Patriarch. In fact, it can be regarded as a secret guard. Usually, he doesn't show up to see people, just in case of emergencies." Xiao Xia said seriously.
"The other day you opened your eyes and said you were Xia Mushu. If you didn't want to impersonate, why did you say that?" Xia Mushu asked with narrowed eyes.
"I didn't see the young master at first, but I recognized Riyong. It was the sword of the young owner of the Mei family. I want to stay by his side. I think this is an opportunity." Xiao Xia said.
"According to what you said, you will never be the only one who died in the Xia family, so why are you alive?"
"Because I wanted to pretend to be the young master. The young master just didn't know. At that time, I would look at the young master in the dark every day, and listen to the master telling me about you, just to be like you." Xiaoxia said .
"What did you say?"
"Back then, I should have died for the young master." Xiao Xia said with firm eyes.
Xia Mushu tilted his head slightly, and suddenly smiled: "I don't understand, someone told you to die, shouldn't you be glad you didn't die? Why? You are also said to be loyal? So you don't feel lucky?"
"No, I'm glad, I'm glad that I can avenge the Xia family while I'm alive." Xiao Xia said, "It's okay if the young master doesn't understand, the dead are raised in Xia's mansion since they were young, in fact, they are usually around eight years old. The opportunity to leave the mansion. If you want to leave the mansion, the master will arrange for someone to adopt, and it will have nothing to do with the Xia family from now on."
"Since I choose to stay, the Xia family is my master, and I should swear allegiance to the death."
Xia Mushu didn't say anything more. There are actually many such dead men or foolish and loyal people. It cannot be said that what they did was wrong, but isn't it important to live for oneself?
"Are you the same age as me?"
"No, my young master is four years old."
"Four years old?" Xia Mushu laughed out loud: "When you are over eighteen years old, you say that you are four years older than me and pretend to be me, so I will not say anything. There is not a little difference between a ten-year-old child and a 14-year-old child." , You said you were impersonating? Who would believe it?"
"Because I was the youngest among the dead soldiers in the Xia Mansion back then, which is pretty close." Xiao Xia said.
But at this moment, Xia Mushu didn't quite believe it.
"Using silver needles into the body and cooperating with Gu worms can change the body shape and appearance." Xiao Xia saw Xia Mushu's disbelief and continued.
"What?" Xia Mushu sat up straight, thinking of Chang Guangzhi in Yiting City. "Is there anyone else in the Xia family who knows this?"
"No, it's not from the Xia family. The master is willing to do good things, and he also likes to make friends with strange people and strange things. This matter was only suggested by someone back then, but it has never been implemented on me."
"Who suggested it?" Xia Mushu asked with narrowed eyes.
"I don't know, I don't follow the master closely, and I don't know many things." Xiao Xia said.
"Where were you when the Xia family was destroyed?" Xia Mushu asked.
Xiao Xia sighed: "I just left Xia's house not long ago."
It turned out that even though Xia Mingxuan felt something was wrong back then, he didn't expect the crisis to come so quickly. Back then, Xiao Xia was first let Xiao Xia leave home. Come to a trick to steal the dragon and turn the phoenix.
Who knew that he had just left home, and before he arrived at the place where he made an appointment to change his face, the Xia family was already gone.He quietly squatted at the place where he agreed to change his face for a while, and found that although there were people waiting for him there, there were ambushes all around him. matter.
"Actually, I thought about going to Master Yingze back then. But," Xiao Xia lowered her head, "Master mentioned it back then, and didn't want to bring the disaster to Meijiazhuang."
Xia Mushu looked at Xiao Xia and said nothing. If his father really said these words, it means that what happened back then must have nothing to do with the Mei family, although he also thought so in his heart.
But my belief in the Mei family comes from my unconditional belief in Mei Yingze. If there is some proof at this moment, I may be more calm when facing the Mei family.
However, what Xiao Xia said was not entirely trustworthy.
Even if he really belonged to the Xia family back then, after so many years, will his people's hearts really not change?
"Since my father didn't plan to drag the Mei family down, where did he want to send me?" Xia Mushu asked.
"I don't know about this, maybe even my wife doesn't know about it." Xiao Xia said, "I'm pretending to be the young master. If the other party uses torture or drugs, why don't I just say it?"
This means, in fact, father never thought of saving mother?Otherwise, why doesn't my mother know?Or is it really impossible to save?If the person back then was really that powerful, where would he be able to protect himself?
"This man, have you noticed anything during this time?" Xia Mushu raised his chin.
"I don't know martial arts, but I definitely have secrets. I don't sleep well, and even the slightest movement can wake me up." Xiao Xia said.
"Did he test you?" Xia Mushu asked.
"No, he just identified himself as Xia Mushu and said that I would definitely be exposed." Xiao Xia said.
Xia Mushu thought for a while, but suddenly pulled Xiao Xia's wrist and took his pulse.
"That's great, do you know you were drugged?" Xia Mushu said with a smile.
"What?" Xiao Xia glanced at Xiao Qi'er in surprise.
"It's not a big problem. I won't explain it to you first, otherwise it will be troublesome if he sees something." Xia Mushu did it on purpose, after all, so that they can restrain each other.
"Don't worry." Xia Mushu walked up to the little beggar, took out a bottle, and asked him to smell it. "Tonight's soup, watch him drink it."
Xiaoxia nodded, knowing that the soup was probably a medicine guide.
Xia Mushu stood up and stretched his waist. He was really tired after traveling all the way recently. "He will wake up naturally in half an hour. As for how to fool him, you can think for yourself."
After leaving the house, he used stones to untie the guard's acupoints in the distance, Xia Mushu turned and went back to the house, ready to have a good sleep.
Unexpectedly, Mei Yingtao came back cursing not long after.
"What's wrong?" Xia Mushu asked.
"Brother Ye is kneeling at the gate of Lei Mansion." Mei Yingtao frowned and said, "Why is Lei's family like this?"
It turned out that they brought Lei Ye's coffin to Lei's house, after Lei's family heard the details, they accepted Lei Ye's coffin and let Ye Wangchen leave.
Ye Wangcen really wanted Lei Ye to return to Lei's house and be buried in the ancestral grave, but he still wanted to participate in the burial, after all, this was Lei Ye's last journey.
But the Lei family didn't agree, and it was impossible to grab the coffin that was brought in, so Ye Wangcen could only kneel at the door, guarding Lei Ye's spirit.
"Kneeling at the gate of Lei's house? Didn't Lei's chase him away?" Xia Mushu asked a little strangely.
"No, brother asked me to come back and tell you. If this is the case, we may have to take turns guarding, otherwise brother Ye's body may not be able to bear it." Mei Yingtao said angrily.
Xia Mushu nodded: "Is your elder brother standing outside the house?"
Seeing that Mei Yingtao nodded, he went on to say: "Well, you should rest for a while, bring some food and come to us later, I'll go find your elder brother first."
"We are outsiders. As you said before, the Lei family cares about face the most. Some things may be easier to talk about without the presence of others. So many of us have gone to the Lei family, I'm afraid things will be even more difficult to talk about."
Mei Yingze thought about it and felt that it made sense, so he decided to arrange the inn first, and then he would take Mei Yingtao and Ye Wangcen to Lei's house together.
