Hypocrites

"Look at you, we didn't have any preparations for opening the door so quickly. We could have lured Shan Guangyi in and made a detour." Mu Jihe said.

There was noise and shouting outside again.

Yan Ran scolded him: "Shut up, when can you be more serious?"

Mu Jihe said: "I've always been serious, isn't what I'm talking about serious? Well, Yan'er, don't worry, I'm going to kill Shan Guangyi now, and solve the problem from the source."

He drew out the broad sword, the thick blade was made of black iron, and the diamond was not broken.This sword was a gift from his ranger master, Shen Yu hadn't had time to ask him why he had it with him today.Muzihe is a born bad boy, maybe there is a spiritual connection between bad guys.

Shen Yu asked: "Are there other exits besides the main entrance?"

Ding Ko replied: "Not anymore."

"You can still fly," Mu Jihe grabbed Yan Ran's shoulder and pushed him to Shen Yu's side, "You take these two over the wall from the backyard!"

Caimen shook violently twice, then fell to the ground with a slam, and there was smoke and dust all over the place.

Shen Yu scooped up Ding Kou with one hand, and scooped up Yanran with the other, but that kid had already rushed out screaming, picked up a stick of firewood at some point, and moved forward with indomitable momentum.

Shan Guangyi's domestic servants saw their master being beaten, and some inexplicable men appeared in the beauty's house.

A big fist landed on Yan Ran's body. It was not a matter of hurting the flesh. Mu Jihe slashed out with the back of his sword, picked up Yan Ran and took it away, furiously: "What are you doing?!"

Yan Ran shouted: "Sister! You go!"

Ding Ko brandished a ladle and slapped her servants away: "The backyard is someone else's yard, so go through the front door!"

It hurt even to hit someone with a wooden ladle, and the servant's face was red and swollen immediately, and he was kicked down by Ding Koo, and he was completely thrown.

Shan Guangyi came in from the main entrance: "Is it under attack? My master is disfigured..."

A tall masked man was facing him, and with lightning speed, he stomped on Shan Guangyi's abdomen with the hilt of his sword. His tone was cold and hard: "It's hitting, stay away."

Ding Kou and Yan Ran were like two side-by-side rabbits in Shen Yu's hands. He carried him out of the door quickly, and Mu Jihe was about to withdraw. Suddenly, the epee was clamped, and the blood from the cut palm flowed down the edge of the sword. down.

Shan Guangyi covered his stomach with one hand, but he had regained his strength, like a giant mountain, showing a majestic figure in front of the Muji River.

"No one dared to provoke me for many years..."

Mu Jihe said coldly: "Try it."

The three of them ran across the streets of Zhuojingfang without touching the ground.The noise of the fight aroused the neighbors, and the window sash quietly opened the gap.

"Go outside the square, where my carriage is parked!"

Yan Ran stopped abruptly, turned around and ran towards Ding's house.

"Come back!" Shen Yu was taken aback.

"That's my sister! Don't let Mujihe take the credit!"

Disappeared in the alley in an instant.

Shen Yu was anxious to death: "What are you thinking! There are still conflicts at this time!"

Ding Kou said: "The two of them can't let go of each other. I think they can only grab one pair if they catch one."

The carriage quietly stopped at the gate of the workshop and was tied to the horse-hitting post.Shen Yu opened the curtain and let Ding Kou sit in. The old cook almost dozed off from waiting, so she narrowed her eyes and looked at Ding Kou.

"We can't leave them here." Ding Kou was still worried.

Shen Yudao: "They only did something useful if you got away. Don't get out of the car."

He was sitting on the shaft of the carriage, with the bamboo hat half covering his face, turning his horse's head, ready to leave at any time, looking behind him, there were no shadows of Yan Ran and Mujihe on the street.

If you don't hurry up, Shan Guangyi will catch up and you won't be able to leave.Shen Yu gripped the horsewhip tightly.

Suddenly there was a yell in the alley: "Blue sky and white sun! Robbing the women!"

People came out from nowhere, gathered more and more, watched the excitement, and pushed and shoved.

It was chaotic for a while.The door of the workshop was blocked, and two people came out with their heads in their arms.

Mu Jihe protected Yan Ran with one hand, and sent him into the carriage first: "Go, go!"

Shen Yu raised his whip and rode his horse away from Zhuojingfang.

In the carriage, the four people looked at each other.The old cook slowly took out a handkerchief and handed it to Mu Jihe: "Young man, wipe off the blood."

Mu Jihe thanked him, turned his face towards Yan Ran, and carefully wiped off the ashes from the dry fight with a handkerchief.

Yan Ran patted his hand off: "The one who wiped your blood!"

A cut was made at the corner of Mu Jihe's brow, and blood flowed to his chin.Shan Guangyi was born in the army and a practicing family son, while Mu Jihe was half literate and half martial arts, not proficient in anything, so it was unfortunate to meet Shan Guangyi.

Fortunately, they didn't fight for too long, only some flesh wounds.And Shan Guangyi was not allowed to see their faces.

Shen Yu left the city all the way, drove to the suburbs, and stopped the car.

"You two go back first. I'll send Sister Ding to Zhangshan to avoid the limelight."

Yan Ran and Mu Jihe got out of the car, while Ding Kou remained in the car.The three of them already knew the purpose of Shen Yu's trip, Shen Yu's original meaning was to ask Dong Xian to take Ding Kou in for a few days, and after a while, see if he could come back again, or find another stable place to settle down.

"Send Auntie back too," Ding Kou said, "Mountain roads are difficult, and the old man's legs and feet are inconvenient. I can also chop firewood and cook. I can't eat other people's rice and sleep in other people's houses for nothing."

The group bid farewell in the suburbs, and Mu Jihe and Yan Ran brought the old cook of the Shen family back to the city by another route.Shen Yu drove the carriage, along the mountain road covered with red maples, and entered the undulating land boundary to the north.The Tuohe River is close at hand, and the carriage, along with the trickle of water, merges into the turbulent waves of the Tuohe River.The population is gradually thinning out.

Going out of the city and walking into the mountains, one day and one night, I arrived at the foot of Zhangshan Mountain.

At night, he missed the hostel, so he had to rest in the car. Shen Yu leaned against the shaft of the car to doze off, and also kept watch at night.With the breeze blowing in the mountains, the night sky was clearer than that in the city, and the river of stars ran across the north and south. At this time, whether it was Shen Yu in the south, Liang Heng in the north, or the Chao people in the north, the same starry sky was shining above their heads.

The peaks are like clusters, pointing to the north.For no reason, Shen Yu thought of Liang Heng again. He once said that he wanted to go to the north where there were snowflakes flying in winter.He is always trapped in the palace and can't go anywhere.

Zhangshan is not a lone peak, but a mountain range, stretching for dozens of miles, with high mountains and deep forests, and the road is between cliffs, which has always been extremely difficult to navigate.Therefore, there are fewer people who come and fewer people live. No matter how many people or horses, once they get into the mountains, they are like mud cows entering the sea in an instant, and they can't be found again.A hermit who comes to Zhangshan to retreat is called a real hermit, because no matter how famous he is, the government will never find him a place to live.

According to his father's description, Shen Yu overcame obstacles to find Dong Xian's thatched hut. The carriage couldn't get in, so it stopped outside, and he and Ding Ko got into the jungle.

The weeds in front of the house reached waist height, and a layer of wet moss grew on the threshold.It seems that the door is just a decoration, and no one has ever entered or exited.

As soon as he knocked on the door, Anjia's insects came out from the cracks.

There was no response for a long time, and Shen Yu couldn't help muttering, could it be that he was starving to death...

After a while, an eye appeared through the slit.

Shen Yu: "Dong Xian... Uncle Dong, I'm Shen Yu, do you remember me?"

Eyes gone.

Two people outside the door: "..."

Shen Yu knocked on the door again: "My father, Shen Jin, sent me to send you the cook."

"Back back." The voice from the door said.

Then there was a loud bang, and the entire door panel was dismantled.

"Hey," said the unkempt savage behind the door, "Hushu has been mothed. Come in."

There is no difference between the inside of the door and the outside of the door. There is also grass growing inside the house, pheasants are pecking at random, and rabbits are forming a nest.

Walking through the hallway, there is a yard for drawing wells. A pile of firewood is set up. The savage only wears a hakama and holds an axe, chopping firewood.As soon as the ax went down, he dodged his waist first, and screamed, the ground was full of waste wood pieces in a mess, not in the slightest.

Shen Yu quickly helped him into the inner room and lay down.The sleeping room was tidy, with volumes piled up, pen holders thrown around, and many envelopes and scraps of paper, all of which were self-recommended by letters to Dong Xian, luckily the courier could find a place.

"Shen Yu, the wild flower hairpin I gave you the year before last, have you kept it?"

Shen Yu was helpless: "Uncle Dong, I am a man, you must remember this time."

"I know, I know," Dong Xian brushed aside the locks of dirty hair, revealing his eyes, "I know now. You are handsome and prettier than your father. Is that woman outside your wife?"

Shen Yudao: "I am here to take care of you! Where is my wife from?!"

"Such a little lady?" Dong Xian poked his nostrils, "No, no, what can she do? She can cook, wash, chop firewood and hunt?"

There was a crackling in the outer yard.

The two went out to watch, and saw that the firewood was neatly chopped and piled up. Ding Kou tied up both sleeves, dropped the axe, and neatly grabbed the chicken wings, and the pheasant kicked wildly in her hands.

"Would you like roast chicken tonight?"

Dong Xian and Shen Yu looked at each other.

Ding Kou is very good at cooking, and even better at brewing wine. Best of all, she calls Dong Xian a master.Dong Xian, an idle old man with unique mountains and fields, hadn't been called that way for many years, so he was very happy immediately.

Ding Kou finally managed to clean up a room of his own in this small dilapidated courtyard. Fortunately, the room left by the former old housekeeper can still be used by people.

At night, Dong Xian shed tears and ate the first mouthful of hot rice in days. The meal was roasted chicken legs that lacked seasoning but were still delicious.

Talking about Shen Jin, I am very grateful, but I don't know that this "knowledgeable" cook came to his house to take refuge.

Dong Xian, who is said to be like a god in the outside world, absorbs the wind and drinks the dew, and has insight into the secrets of heaven, but in fact he is just a useless old man who can't lift his hands or shoulders, and lives with pheasants and hares every day.When Ding Kou came, he knew that he was taking shelter of Mr. Dong, and he was a little apprehensive for a while, but now he regards Dong Xian as no different from an ordinary drinker.

It's just that it is more expensive, and it needs to be handled with care, so that he can compile the world-renowned "Character Items".

Before leaving, Shen Yu repaired the door that could only be dismantled but not opened, and worked with Ding Kou to clean up the weeds.Dong Xian liked this nephew very much, and would welcome him next time, and bring a few jars of good wine along the way.

Going down the mountain in the morning breeze and light rain, the sunlight overflows the mountain top and fills the valley, and there is a blue lake in between, sparkling like silver silk and satin, like a dream.Dong Xian took a bath in this lake and dug out the eye of the mountain god.Later, it was in the hands of Liang Heng, and then entered the treasury of the State of Qi.

For some reason, Shen Yu thought of Liang Heng again.
