Chapter 13 The Golden Cicada Escapes Its Shell
God, Wei Xue.
The sound of the piano came from the pavilion, and went away in the wind and snow. The sound of the piano is cheerful, but when it falls to Uncle Shui's ears, it seems more and more sad.
Zhou Boyan has never played the piano since he practiced Chengying swordsmanship! Until now, she failed to refine the divine sword and almost cut off all hope, so she picked up the piano again.
He walked lightly into the pavilion, put on a cup of hot tea, and squeezed a smile on his face.
"Miss, I haven't heard you play the piano for a long time."
The sound of the zither stopped, Zhou Boyan raised his head, and asked softly, "Has he left?"
Sighing in his heart, Uncle Shui lowered his head subconsciously and replied, "I have already sent it away."
Slightly closing his eyes, Zhou Boyan's face became colder and colder, but he didn't speak after all, but the sound of the piano changed unconsciously, revealing a bit of farewell.
This song doesn't appeal to Li Shang, it's just a farewell.
Looking at Zhou Boyan silently, Uncle Shui's face revealed a hint of guilt, but he became firm again just thinking of the previous scene.
"I'm sorry, miss... I hope you don't blame me, just let Uncle Shui be selfish for once."
…
"Uncle Shui, let me stay. You know that the current situation has almost reached the point of no return."
Looking at Uncle Shui, Wu Chi's eyes showed a trace of determination, and he said softly, "I'm just a small person, I can't turn the tide! But maybe you can take her away, you won't really have the heart to let her be buried with Jianying Villa Bar?"
Hearing this, Uncle Shui's heart was finally shaken.
Almost watching Zhou Boyan grow up, although he is just a servant in name, but deep down, why doesn't he regard Zhou Boyan as his daughter?
He is very clear about Zhou Boyan's temperament. If there is really someone who can make Zhou Boyan give up the idea of living and dying with Sword Shadow Villa, then it must be this kid in front of him.
Even a tiny bit of hope is better than no hope at all.
And the price? It's just possible to lose Wu Chi's life alone.
Although this is very selfish, miss, even if you are selfish once, so what?
"It's dangerous, you might die."
After thinking for a long time, Uncle Shui finally spoke.
"So what? Isn't it a good deal to exchange the danger of me, an outsider, for a possible chance of survival for Miss Zhou?"
Looking at Uncle Shui calmly, Wu Chi didn't hide it at all, and simply pointed out. He didn't mind speaking more bluntly, because this was the only chance and the only possibility to persuade the other party to help him.
People are selfish, and what he bet on is the selfish side of human nature.
"After the burial in the day after tomorrow, before Miss returns to Sword Shadow Villa, this is the only chance."
Turning around slowly, Uncle Shui spoke softly.
….
Putting on the clothes of a servant, watching the carriage slowly leave Sword Shadow Villa, Wu Chi's eyes showed a cold look.
From this moment on, in the eyes of everyone, he has already left, and there is more room for maneuvering. Time is running out, although I don't know how sure of success it is, but this is the only chance.
Taking advantage of the darkness, Wu Chi lowered his head and slowly stepped into a small courtyard in the distance.
"Damn, where's the wine? Why are you running out of wine so soon?"
Several people made the yard a mess, shouting and cursing while looking for servants.
"This evil star finally got out of the way. Today is going to be a good celebration. How can there be no wine! Where are people? Are they all dead?"
As soon as he turned his head, he saw the young man who had just entered the courtyard.
"Hey, boy, come here and get some more wine for the old men, do you hear me?"
He lowered his head and walked slowly to the person who was speaking. The servant raised his head slightly, and said lightly with a hint of playfulness, "My lord, it's so late, I think you'd better drink water."
"******, what are you, what does the uncle want to drink, it's not your turn to fuck..."
Just halfway through the cursing, the man saw the boy's face clearly, as if his throat was stuck, he swallowed the last word abruptly.
In an instant, cold sweat soaked through the vest, and most of the alcohol dissipated immediately.
"Wu...Master Wu, why are you here?"
Rolling his eyes, Wu Chi sneered, "Why, where am I going, do I still need to report to you?"
"Don't dare, dare not!"
In this moment, several other people also reacted, and the moment they saw Wu Chi clearly, they suddenly became honest.
These people are the guys who used ten taels of silver to lure Wu Chi to find Jiange. They were taught a lesson by Wu Chi before they heard that Wu Chi had left. Before they had time to celebrate, who would have thought that The evil star unexpectedly came to the door again.
"You just said, which evil star is going to leave?" Wu Chi stared at the man coldly, and asked slowly.
"..."
Swearing at people behind their backs, and being caught for sure, is there anything more tragic than this?
He wanted to justify a few sentences, but he couldn't even utter a word when he met Wu Chi's cold gaze, so he could only lower his head and pretend he didn't hear anything, hoping to get away with it.
He snorted softly, but Wu Chi didn't have any intention of delving into it. He kicked that person's ass, looked at the messy environment around him in disgust, and said lightly, "What should I do? Do you still need my instructions?"
There was a jolt in an instant, and several people hurriedly got up to clean up, without daring to say a single unnecessary nonsense.
"Master Wu, haven't you left?"
After tidying up the surroundings, the leader boldly approached and asked cautiously.
"Bullshit, Jianying Villa is about to come to an end. At this time, I don't want to save some benefits, am I sick?" The corners of his mouth raised, and Wu Chi snorted disdainfully. Chasing me away at a time like this is not a dream! Master, I made a little trick, and then turned around and came back."
As if thinking of something, Wu Chi's eyes suddenly showed a cold murderous intent, and he put his palm on the hilt of his sword, "You guys, don't you want to betray me?"
"Don't dare, the young ones definitely don't dare!" Out of the corner of their eye, they landed on the saber at Wu Chi's waist, and several people hurriedly expressed their opinions, lest Wu Chi would become suspicious and be killed in a daze.
"Master, it's inconvenient for me to show up in front of outsiders right now. I'll leave it to you guys to inquire about the news. Is there any problem?"
"Master Wu, don't worry, if you need anything, just tell me."
At this time, let alone asking for news, even if they are asked to set fire to Jianying Villa, then they have to agree first.
"Okay, what should I do? Young Master, I'm tired and I'm going to rest." He kicked open the door of a room casually, walked in swaggeringly, and Wu Chi's voice came out again.
"Of course, you can try to tell Luo Kun or Zhou Xiaoniu the news of my coming! However, it is not certain what will happen to me, my young master, but I should be clear about what will happen to you guys."
This sentence immediately hit the vital point of several people.
The few people who were thinking about whether to spread the news secretly suddenly became honest.
It was Wu Chi's point that they reacted.
I heard that Wu Chi also met Luo Kun, and got a lot of benefits! As for Zhou Boyan, everyone knew that Wu Chi was very familiar with Zhou Boyan, and that Jianying Villa sent a carriage to take him away when he was leaving today.
If the news were to be leaked, neither Zhou Boyan nor Luo Kun would really do anything to Wu Chi, but if they betrayed this evil star, they would all be dead.
Thinking of this, a few people felt aggrieved and wanted to die!
Nothing could be worse than this.
…
Lying on the bed, Wu Chi didn't really rest, instead, he felt a strong feeling of tiredness welling up in his heart.
Forcibly staying, it seemed smooth, but Wu Chi knew very well that it was difficult.
Not to mention how to persuade Zhou Xiaoniu to leave, just trying to avoid Luo Kun's sight, at the most dangerous time, it is extremely troublesome to lure Zhou Boyan's golden cicada out of its shell.
Now the power that can really be used in the hands is really limited, and the time is so tight that it is too late to arrange it slowly.
Countless thoughts flashed through my mind, and in a daze, the scene of seeing the divine sword Chengying in the Jiange today seemed to keep reappearing in my mind, and uncontrollably deduced the Chengying swordsmanship again.
Although Zhou Boyan failed in refining the divine sword, Wu Chi had to admit that seeing Chengying Sword brought him great gains.
If there is still half a month, not seven days, or even three days, Wu Chi will have a certain degree of certainty to reverse the sword intent, at least 70% certainty that Zhou Boyan will refine the divine sword.
Unfortunately, it was all too late.
Thinking that the Divine Sword Chengying might fall into Luo Kun's hands, Wu Chi couldn't help feeling a little unwillingness in his heart.
Even if Luo Kun is a disciple of Tianshan Mountain, in Wu Chi's heart, he is not qualified to refine the divine sword Chengying.
Trying to get rid of these messy thoughts in his mind, Wu Chi rubbed his temples vigorously to calm himself down.
Up to now, it doesn't matter who the sword Chengying will fall into. The most important thing is, how to take Zhou Boyan away?
Zhou Boyan said that there are always things that are more important than life, but Wu Chi always believes that only by being alive can there be hope, and if he is dead, then everything is really nothing, and saying anything is meaningless.
"Zhou Xiaoniu, don't be stupid again! Even if we lose the Divine Sword Chengying, we can still find a chance to get it back... we must not be stupid!"
