Chapter 89: Plans in Leisure Time
"Don't worry, I remember..." Gai Nie muttered and stopped talking. Su Yi, on the other hand, laughed evilly for a long time before falling asleep with a smile on his face.
On a tree not far from the carriage, the branches and leaves suddenly moved, and then there was no movement.
"Damn it, that Xiang Ding really didn't lie to me. They are really planning on me... Huh, two young boys who are still young dare to touch me. Let's just wait and see!"
The night was dark, and Su Yi, who was supposed to be asleep, suddenly curled up his mouth and regained his composure instantly, as if the action just now was just an illusion.
The next day, it was bright.
"Brother, look, Xiang Rong is out."
Su Yi and Gai Nie had already stood up, sitting on the top of the carriage, one on the left and the other on the right, commenting on Xiang Rong's carriage. From Xiang Rong's point of view, it was exactly what the two of them were conveying through their eyes and subtle gestures. And the information conveyed by this, Xiang Rong spontaneously imagined "Xiang Rong's wife, Xiang Rong's concubine, Xiang Rong's age..."
"That's unreasonable!" Xiang Rong glared at the luxurious carriage with hatred, secretly regretting that he shouldn't have spent a lot of money to prepare such a luxurious carriage for the two of them. It was just a matter of lying in it and being comfortable. It’s convenient for them to watch and chat!
Helpless, Xiang Rong was worried about the status of the two envoys from the State of Qin, so he had to smile and respond.
"You two seemed to have a good rest last night?"
Xiang Rong stepped forward and bowed generously as a greeting.
"Hey? General Xiang is here," Su Yi tilted his head as if he had just discovered Xiang Rong, and made Xiang Rong angry without any trace, "The weather is so good today, General Xiang actually missed the sunrise in the morning. Isn’t it a pity to see such beautiful scenery?”
"Master Su is joking." Xiang Rong gritted his teeth secretly. He went back and forth several times last night to find out about the carriage here. Naturally, he got up a little late this morning.
"It is said that everyone who practices martial arts has cultivated the habit of morning exercises since childhood. They often have to get up before dawn to practice. Even my senior brother and I did not dare to slack off in Guigu. How come we are still lazy when we get to General Xiang's place? Go to sleep. Along the way, I heard passers-by say how heroic General Xiang is, so I guess it must be because General Xiang is extremely talented and intelligent."
Su Yi told lies seriously. Gui Guzi did train his apprentices harshly, but that was only for Gai Nie Weizhuang. For Su Yi, the little apprentice who appeared halfway, Gui Guzi loved Su Yi very much. He not only asked Gai Nie to take care of him more often You know, even when I teach, I am very tolerant.
Of course, Su Yi's words were only meant for Xiang Rong.
"Master Su doesn't come here often, so I think he misunderstood."
"Oh? What's wrong?"
Xiang Rong brushed his sleeves, and the expression on his face turned into one of admiration, "Mr. Su, you don't know. General Xiang, who is known to the world as wise and mighty, is my father, not a vulgar person like us."
"Yeah...that's how it is..." Su Yi suddenly realized this, raised his hands and bowed, and did not talk about it, but he despised Xiang Rong in his heart.
Look, you have been fooled. You are indeed a vulgar person. You are still young when you are playing tricks with me.
"Brother, can you activate the eye of insight?"
Su Yi was dealing with Xiang Rong on the surface, but secretly he was communicating with Gai Nie.
"Well, I've already seen it."
"What was the result? Did it deviate from my expectations?"
"Xiang Rong has a sin value of 100 and a merit value of 100. He is actually a guy with equal values. As for this evaluation... I am a little surprised that he is actually a sinner and marked as arrestable."
"Hey, senior brother, since the prison has given this suggestion, it's hard for us to refuse, right? Besides, I have long wanted to catch him for fun, just tonight, senior brother has promised to cooperate with me, but Can’t go back on my word.”
"That's natural. When have I ever gone back on what I promised you?"
"That's good, hehe..."
Su Yi and Gai Nie were having a lively chat. Xiang Rong also noticed Su Yi's perfunctory behavior and Gai Nie's ignorance (which was unfair, he was just busy). After exchanging a few words, he also returned to his carriage.
The group set out on their way back again.
Another boring day's journey, during which there were also bad guesses about the content of Su Yigenie's conversation, tortured Xiang Rong. On the one hand, he was worried about whether the two people over there knew something, and on the other hand, he was also concerned about the future. Various situations that may arise.
In addition, in the evening, a sudden heavy snowfall blocked the trip. Xiang Rong suddenly felt that everything was not going well and was full of irritability. He felt that if he did not vent, the depression in the past few days was about to explode, so he ordered to stop an hour early to drink wine. Yan Huan just happened to be able to arrange it earlier.
In the heavy rain, the poor attendant finally found enough firewood, and took great pains to light and set up a fire for the three adults to roast game and keep warm. But he still couldn't push it away, so he had to stand aside in case of emergency.
But the cave they found wasn't that big, and it was a little crowded for the three of them to sit around. The few followers had to endure the heavy snow hitting their necks, silently enviing the brothers who could take turns.
In this small "wine banquet", whether it was Xiang Rong's intention or Su Yi's deliberate arrangement, most of the wine specially provided for the three of them ended up in Su Yi's stomach.
As a result, Su Yi went to meet Duke Zhou early.
Seeing this, Xiang Rong stood up and left, leaving only Gai Nie, who barely drank, and a disgusted entourage to take care of them.
Because of the "wine banquet" held by the three of them, the entourage also got a chance to rest and recuperate. Most of them went to catch up on their sleep in advance, and at midnight, they were sleeping soundly.
At that time, I was surprised to hear the panicked shouts of the night guard, which scared me.
"Catch the assassin—there's an assassin—"
I don't know which of the followers noticed the danger first, yelled twice to catch the assassin, and called up the few minions who were still in a dazed state.
"Quick, alert, line up, protect the two adults!"
Xiang Rong, who was still obsessed with listening to the wall and going to bed late, reacted quickly and made arrangements immediately.
It's a pity that those assassins all rushed towards Su Yi Gai Nie's carriage in front, killing a thousand enemies and damaging eight hundred themselves. They rushed that way regardless of whether they were cut off in the arms or stabbed in the back. Ignore them all and focus on the carriage.
As a result, in the blink of an eye, this landing place was covered with blood.
This day is to look at the sun. The full moon is bright in the sky, and blood flowers bloom one after another on the white snow. The blood and snow blend together, shining with a faint light in the dark night. It looks particularly eerie and terrifying. It seems that some conspiracy is blooming in this small land. ..
