Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 567 Twelfth Moon (4000)

What a seductive fairy...

Seeing Zhen Mi's snow-white fragrant shoulders on purpose, Wu Liang swallowed unconsciously, but in the end he restrained himself and shook his head: "Tomorrow may have to deal with many unknown dangers, let's wait another day."

Wu Liang has long been experienced in this regard.

Don't look at just doing this kind of thing in a dream, but the body will still respond accordingly. Not only will it stain the pants, but it will also greatly affect the spirit of the next day.

What's more, this kind of behavior is fundamentally self-deception, which is similar to watching a small movie in later generations to solve it by yourself.

How can anyone go to watch a short movie to solve the problem when there is a beauty at their fingertips by their side... People with special hobbies are not included.

Also.

He has now met Zuo Ci, a well-known alchemist who was clearly identified in the history books as being good at "art in the house".

Therefore, taking advantage of this opportunity to master the "art in the room" is also a great opportunity, and if you can get this coveted art and realize "restoring the brain", it will not be too late to do this kind of thing later. There is really no need to rush this moment.

"When I look at you now, you really look more and more like that dead ghost. You can be a disappointment anytime, anywhere."

There was a look of surprise in Zhen Mi's eyes, she looked at Wu Liang intently for a long time, and finally pulled up the red robe to cover her shoulders, and said with a bit of resentment.

Wu Liang naturally knew that the dead ghost that Zhen Mi was talking about was Dayu, but if there was such a beautiful wife in the family, he couldn't go through the house three times without entering, so he laughed and said: "Then you really misjudged, we are completely They are two different kinds of people, and I believe you will discover this before long."

"Humph!"

Zhen Mi snorted noncommittally, and then said, "It's okay, I'm leaving now."

"By the way, in the second half of the night, you find a way to send me both 'Lost Soul Incense' and 'Returning Soul Fragrance'. Zhang Liang wants me to prepare different fragrances for him. I can't make it without 'Returning Soul Incense', and' "Lost Soul Fragrance" may be able to play a miraculous effect at a critical time."

Wu Liang went on to say, "I have temporarily placed both the 'Lost Soul Fragrance' and the 'Returning Soul Fragrance' with Jingjing. You can go to her and explain what I mean, and she will give it to you."

"Then you just wait for Zhang Liang to dispose of the fragrance if you can't make it. Who told you to leave the things with her, but not with me?"

Zhen Mi immediately showed displeasure.

"I was wrong, I will definitely leave it with you next time."

Wu Liang could only say with a smile.

Zhen Mi, a latecomer, is much more jealous than Bai Jingjing, but he can also hear that Zhen Mi is deliberately playing petty temper at the moment, which is not much different from acting like a baby.

So if you want to understand, Zhen Mi understands better.

She is always grasping a man's heart. She knows what kind of woman a man likes and what kind of woman he doesn't like, and she knows how to tease her.

"That's about the same, just wait for you."

Only then did Zhen Mi smile in satisfaction.

After finishing speaking, her figure began to gradually drift away, and she completely disappeared into Wu Liang's dream in just two breaths.

……

In the middle of the night, Zhen Mi really ordered a little yellow fox to bring the "Lost Soul Fragrance" and "Returning Soul Fragrance" over.

It squatted at the door and scratched it lightly with its small paws three times. Wu Liang only opened a gap in the door, then reached out and took the two small porcelain bottles from the little yellow fox, and then stroked its head to express his gratitude. .

Then the little yellow fox disappeared into the night like a ghost.

And Wu Liang didn't bring the two small porcelain bottles with him, but temporarily hid them in a secret corner in the room. After all, Zhang Liang's sense of smell is more sensitive than ordinary people, so it is easy to be caught by him if he takes them with him. Noticed when summoned.

As for this wing.

It should be unlikely that Zhang Liang sent people to search.

After all, when he entered the mansion, he and Dian Wei had already been searched. During this period, he had no contact with outsiders, nor had he ever gone out. If Zhang Liang hadn't discovered something, he wouldn't have thought of being in this wing room under normal circumstances. Hid something.

That's it.

Wu Liang felt a little relieved, returned to bed and soon fell asleep again, and finally woke up when the door was knocked by the servant who delivered the meal yesterday.

Dian Wei has already gone to open the door.

It turned out that the servant came to bring them toiletries and even brought them a bucket of hot water.

This service is really good enough, even those hotels with stars in later generations may not be able to be so comprehensive.

"Please clean it up first, and then bring the court food after being a bit of a villain."

The servant said respectfully, "After the meal, the manager will come to see you, please prepare in advance."

"Brother, do you know why the manager came to see us?"

Wu Liang felt that Zhang Liang had something to do with it. It was probably Zhang Liang who wanted to summon them, but he decided to inquire first.

"The villain is just a food delivery man, so he doesn't know."

The servant lowered his head and said cautiously.

"Thank you."

Wu Liang didn't ask further, but just bowed his hands and thanked him.

"Sir, don't break the villain, the villain will leave."

The servant once again avoided Wu Liang's etiquette, and saluted and left in fear.

Through the servant's performance yesterday and today, he can only see that the Zhang family's hierarchy is very strict, almost like Zhou Xingxing's version of "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance", where all the servants and guards are divided into high-level and low-level titles .

And a person like him should be somewhere between high and low. Although high or low, he usually doesn't have to endure hardships, and he doesn't have to serve others like that servant. The only one who needs to serve should be It is Zhang Liang.

Then Wu Liang heard that the servant went to Zuo Ci who lived next door.

Speaking of Zuo Ci humming all night last night, although it did not affect the sleep of Wu Liang and Dian Wei, Wu Liang could really feel the pain Zuo Ci endured last night through the sound.

At least for Wu Liang, he didn't even dare to imagine whether he could bear the pain of having one eye gouged out.

But now, Zuo Ci next door has calmed down, and he still doesn't know what's going on.

"Boom boom boom!"

The servant's very soft knock on the door immediately rang out.

This time, he didn't tell the servant to wait too long, and the door opened after hearing a "squeak".

"gentlemen……"

The servant was about to say something.

Zuo Ci's voice could already be heard from the next door, he interrupted the servant, and said in a very succinct hoarse voice: "Let it go."

The footsteps of the servants entered the wing room, they should have put away the toiletries first, and tidied up inside for a while, before saying: "Later, the villain will serve Chaoshi..."

"understood!"

Zuo Ci interrupted him again, with a little impatience in his tone.

"The villain will leave."

In a few seconds, the servant had already retreated from Zuo Ci's room, and his walking speed was obviously much faster than when he came out of Wu Liang's room. It seemed that he was quite afraid of Zuo Ci in his heart.

Have you slowed down yet?

Wu Liang listened to these movements from the next door, and secretly cursed in his heart.

As the saying goes, "a hundred days of injury to the muscles and bones", although Zuo Ci was not considered to be injured yesterday, but being gouged out with one eye is also a very serious injury. It is not bad for a normal person to be able to stop the bleeding after only one night , it is impossible to slow down.

What's more, the current medical conditions are very limited. Zuo Ci was directly carried back to the wing room yesterday. There was no doctor to come to treat him. Move around the room.

and so.

Wu Liang felt that Zuo Ci should still have some skills, but the exact extent of his skills was not yet clear.

It's a pity that in this situation, Wu Liang still felt that he should not openly contact Zuo Ci, at least he should wait until he met Zhang Liang and understood Zhang Liang's attitude towards him.

But Zhang Liang didn't seem to mind his contact with Zuo Ci too much.

Otherwise, how could they be arranged in the same yard, and the residence is only separated by a brick wall?
of course.

It's also possible that Zhang Liang did it on purpose, or to test him, or to scare the chickens and monkeys. After all, after Zhang Liang gouged out Zuo Ci's eyes yesterday, he ordered someone to bring Zuo Ci in in front of him. At least there is little suspicion of giving him a warning.

When thinking about it like this.

There were footsteps again in the yard outside.

At this moment, the door of Wu Liang's room was open, and he could just see the situation in the yard.

At some time, Zuo Ci had already arrived at the stone table in the courtyard with a copper basin.

At this moment, Zuo Ci's head was wrapped with an impure yellowed linen cloth, and the linen cloth was stained with mottled blood, but his steps were still steady, not like a person who moaned all night.

With his back to Wu Liang, he put the copper basin on the stone table.

Then slowly took off the linen cloth on the head, threw it into the copper basin and rubbed it a few times.

There was hot air rising from the copper basin, the hot water must have been brought by the servant, then Zuo Ci wrung the soaked linen cloth out of the copper basin, and then gently wiped his face .

Although at this moment Zuo Ci's face cannot be seen from behind.

But Wu Liang could still see that the sackcloth was dyed red just after Zuo Ci wiped it. It is not difficult to guess that his entire face must be covered with blood at this moment.

During the whole process, Zuo Ci didn't say a word, only shaking his body from time to time.

This may be due to accidentally touching or pulling the wound when wiping the face. It would be a lie to say that it does not hurt, after all, there are so many nerves in the eyes.

But look at it from another angle.

Zuo Ci was indeed a tough guy, anyway, if it was Wu Liang, he would definitely not be able to be as forbearing as Zuo Ci.

"Son..."

Dian Wei had already noticed Zuo Ci, and subconsciously looked at Wu Liang.

"It has nothing to do with us, wash your face."

But Wu Liang withdrew his gaze and concentrated on washing his face.

Because while he was observing Zuo Ci, he noticed from the corner of his eye a figure flashing past behind the fence made of bricks and stones on the courtyard wall. It was obvious that there were people walking back and forth outside at the moment, as to whether he was watching them or not, it was unknown. .

And when Wu Liang finished washing his face, he turned around.

Zuo Ci had disappeared, leaving only some water marks on the stone table where he stayed just now.

Wu Liang picked up the copper basin and walked out. There was a large wooden bucket with a lid in the corner of the courtyard. went in.

But yesterday they had dinner, and after the servant packed up the leftovers, they poured them all into the wooden barrel.

According to Dian Wei, he also heard a movement around Mao, which should be the sound of someone coming to clean up the wooden barrel...

This kind of trash can is not uncommon. After all, there are no flush toilets in this era, and not every large family has a toilet in the yard, let alone the sewer pipes that extend in all directions in later generations. Therefore, such a trash can is placed in the courtyard. The rubbish of the house is poured into it regardless of dry or wet. Even the toilet bucket placed indoors will be poured into this trash can. At that time, there will be special servants to come and clean it up.

And the dirty water after washing the face, of course, should be treated in the same way. It would be too careless to pour it directly at the door like in ordinary people's homes.

But when passing by the stone table that Zuo Ci just wiped his face.

Wu Liang paused slightly.

Because he questioned the few water marks that were barely dry on the stone table, those water marks were connected together to form a rather scribbled word "escape"!

coincidence?

Or is Zuo Ci using this method to convey information to him?
Wu Liang subconsciously looked at Zuo Ci's wing from the corner of his eye. Zuo Ci was sitting at the door with a piece of clean sackcloth covering his head, and the sackcloth just blocked his gouged out left eye.

But Zuo Ci must have known that he was looking at him, but Zuo Ci didn't express anything, just glanced at him, then seemed to shake his head slightly, and shifted his gaze to other places.

"..."

Wu Liang quickly retracted his peripheral vision.

Through Zuo Ci's various performances, Wu Liang has reason to suspect that someone is watching their every move, and also has reason to think that the word "escape" is Zuo Ci's message to him.

The literal meaning is easy to understand.

Zuo Ci probably wanted to tell him to run away.

And Wu Liang felt that Zuo Ci could be trusted for the time being. After all, he had never met Zhang Liang before, nor had he seen Zuo Ci. Without understanding each other, there was no need for Zhang Liang and Zuo Ci to pay such a heavy price. The price was to play such a bitter trick in front of him, and he didn't even have the motive to target him like this at all.

But the word "escape" is written lightly, how to implement it is still a problem.

The security of the Zhang residence is very strict. Unless he can become a nimble little animal like a fox, it is basically impossible for him to escape without disturbing anyone, let alone under strict surveillance...

On the one hand, he slandered in his heart.

Wu Liang walked towards the big wooden barrel with a normal expression.

When he brought the wooden barrel closer, Wu Liang immediately saw a few traces of water that were barely dry on the lid of the wooden barrel.

These watermarks are joined together to form two scrawled handwriting - the twelfth lunar month.

What do you mean?
escape……

Twelfth lunar month...

Did the twelfth lunar month escape?

Does this mean planning to collude with me to escape?
Now that the winter solstice has just passed, it is only a few days away from the twelfth lunar month...
