Chapter 64 If I Lie to You, I Can Live for Another Three Years
The faint body fragrance rushed into Ding Yi's nose, stirring the sensitive nerves in Ding Yi's mind, but he did not dare to move at all.
"My Lord, this is for my martial arts practice."
Ding Yi said quickly.
"Oh?"
Bi He seemed to be interested, walked around Ding Yi, and then said:
"Tell me about it."
"My Lord, I practice martial arts and am used to simulating real environments."
"I tied these bottles to the beams of the house, let them hang down, and then pushed them one by one, and people shuttled through them. It is best not to touch them, one touch is the best, three touches are medium, and five touches are the worst."
Ding Yi said slowly without changing his face.
"Is this for practicing body skills?"
Bi He was stunned.
"That's right."
Bi He nodded thoughtfully when he heard it, and said:
"No wonder the lady said she wanted to go out more often. The way you martial artists practice martial arts is very interesting."
Ding Yi heard this and secretly said that it was a close call.
I put these bottles in the firewood pile without destroying them, in order to attract the attention of this witch, so that she can find something strange to satisfy her curiosity.
After all, if the house is too clean and there is nothing suspicious, this situation will make people more suspicious.
However, this witch is indeed a rookie who has just come out of the mountain. She believed Ding Yi's words and did not let Ding Yi show it on the spot.
"Okay, you continue to stay in the kitchen tonight."
Bi He looked at Ding Yi, and finally returned to the bedroom after leaving a word.
Ding Yi squinted at the slightly closed wooden door of the bedroom in front, and then he breathed a sigh of relief and straightened up.
"I don't know how long this witch will stay here. Doesn't her lady need someone to serve her?"
Ding Yi complained in his heart, then shook his head and walked into the kitchen.
The pots in the kitchen were all cold. Ding Yi knew at a glance that this witch didn't cook dinner at all. He thought to himself that as a special envoy maid of the Yin-Yang Palace, even the county magistrate Wang had to give way to her. How could she cook for himself?
"Forget it, let's just get some dried meat."
Although Ding Yi didn't know how the witch solved the problem of eating, drinking, defecating and urinating every day, he couldn't go hungry, so he took out some dried meat from the earthenware jar in the kitchen and ate it with water.
Ding Yi, who hadn't eaten dried meat for a long time, suddenly felt that the dried meat tonight was particularly unpalatable. After all, he had been eating three meals at roadside stalls these days, and the taste was much better than this salty dried meat.
If he had enough life at this moment, he wouldn't mind using some fortified dried meat to enhance the taste, but after the last almost all-in operation, his life was only more than 2 years.
In addition, tonight he had to prepare the things needed for tomorrow's exploration, and he didn't know how much it would cost. At this moment, Ding Yi could only pray that he would get something tomorrow.
Soon, the sky gradually darkened.
Ding Yi looked at this scene, then got up and took out the empty bottle from the firewood pile, and hung it on the door of the room with a rope.
Although the bottle had been discovered by Bihe, Ding Yi could explain that he forgot to take it down after practicing. Anyway, the bottle mainly served as a warning, and it would work whether the visitor found it or not.
"The contemporary conspiracy is awesome."
Looking at the densely packed bottles in front of the door, Ding Yi smiled and clapped his hands.
Finally, Ding Yi leaned back against the wall and began to plan tomorrow's action.
According to Ding Yi's inference, since the Black Dragon Gang has increased its manpower, the probability of having fragments of the statue in the yard has increased to 70% to 80%.
But he must get it as soon as possible, otherwise, they will definitely move the fragments over time, and then use the same method to find the location, which is unlikely.
As for whether taking this thing is illegal, it is not within Ding Yi's consideration at all.
From those three young boys, it can be seen that the Black Dragon Gang is definitely not a good thing.
"I have saved the lives of those three young boys, and it is reasonable to take some of your things."
Ding Yi smiled.
At this moment, there are only three ways in front of Ding Yi.
The first one is to attack by force, which Ding Yi will not adopt naturally. He doesn't even know the strength of the guards in the yard.
The second one is to attack from a distance, which is also not suitable. Ding Yi knows that his life span is not enough to strengthen a cannon, otherwise he can let the people in the yard know what firepower crushing is.
The third one is to use wits.
Thinking of this, Ding Yi frowned slightly.
Although he threw a stone to ask for directions today, he also disturbed the grass and startled the snake. The people in this small courtyard must be extremely focused these days. It is undoubtedly more difficult to use wits.
After Ding Yi sat by the wall and thought for a while, an idea suddenly came to his mind. He jumped in his heart immediately, and then he thought more and more that it was feasible, and his frown finally slowly relaxed.
Now that he had determined the idea, Ding Yi relaxed a little. He took out the book "Nine Heavens and Ten Earths to Pass the Evil Secret" from the root of his thigh, and then continued to study it under the dim light.
That night, Ding Yi used the Yin-Yang Evil to continue tempering the Pi Guan Jijing. It seemed that the Changqing Qi in the acupoints in his body had accumulated a little more tonight. Ding Yi felt that the speed of the Pi Guan Jijing had increased compared to yesterday. He was very happy and thought that the skill he had gained in exchange for his seventy years of life was indeed miraculous.
...
Early in the morning of the next day, Ding Yi woke up early.
He first put away the bottles hanging at the door as usual, then walked into the hall and whispered to the direction of the bedroom: "Is your Excellency awake?"
After a while, a confused voice sounded:
"What's the matter?"
"Ah, it's like this, your Excellency. Yesterday, I visited and investigated in the outer city and seemed to have found a place where there might be traces of external evil."
As soon as Ding Yi finished speaking, the wooden door of the bedroom was opened instantly, and then Bihe came out of the house with a frown while wearing a light gauze belt, obviously just getting up.
"What do you mean?"
Seeing this, Ding Yi didn't dare to look at Bihe again, but bowed and said:
"I see that your Excellency is getting tired day by day, so I want to share your worries, so when I was on duty yesterday, I used some tricks and found a place where there might be external evil. I just don't know if it's what your Excellency needs..."
Ding Yi bowed and said, but the corner of his eye was quietly observing Bihe's movements.
After a while, Ding Yi heard Bi He suddenly giggle:
"Ding Hai, you are so slick all day long, are you up to something again?"
Ding Yi pretended to be panicked and took a few steps back, saying:
"My Lord! I am only trying to help you. If I have any selfish thoughts, I will definitely shorten my lifespan and my remaining lifespan will not exceed five years!! No, three years!!"
After hearing this, Bi He narrowed her eyes, looked at Ding Yi seriously, and then frowned and said:
"I will believe you once. If you lie to me, you know what will happen to you!"
"My Lord, please wait for me to change my clothes, and we will leave immediately!!"
Ding Yi's eyes were firm and his words were righteous. At this moment, a ray of sunlight refracted from outside the house and fell on his clean face, making him look even more majestic.
