Noble First Daughter-in-law

Chapter 348 The third possibility

The few attendants behind them looked at each other, and they were all silent. Although they were so silent along the way, but now that they came back here and were about to enter Wanggangzhai, they still felt nervous unconsciously.

On the contrary, Xiao Yuansui, not only did not feel the slightest nervousness, but a little smile appeared on his handsome face, and he said, "If that's the case, don't make them wait."

After speaking, he rode his horse and prepared to move on.

At this moment, there was a sound of horseshoes not far in front, rumbling like a drum. When they looked up, they saw a group of people walking down the mountain road and approaching slowly, and the leader was none other than others. It was Wang Quren, the brother of Wang Quyi, the third head of Wang Gangzhai.

This man is nearly forty years old, but because he has a naturally sad face and several wrinkles between his brows that have been lingering for years, he looks older than his actual age; he is wearing a tight blue cloth suit, and his figure is He was quite tall, but because of his sad expression, he didn't seem to have any deterrent effect. Even if there was a group of people behind him, he didn't look like a local snake here, but like a tourist who accidentally bumped into this place.

And when he saw Xiao Yuansui, he immediately waved and rode his horse to meet him with a smile.

"Second Brother Xiao."

Seeing him, a smile appeared on Xiao Yuansui's face, and he rode up to meet him: "Sir, why are you here?"

Wang Quren rode his horse up to him and stopped, bowed his hands politely to him and said, "I heard that you are coming back, elder brother specially asked me to come here to welcome you."

Xiao Yuansui laughed loudly when he heard the words, and said, "Brother is too polite."

"..."

"I have walked this road up the mountain countless times, don't you remember?"

Wang Quren just smiled.

Although he has a benevolent and cowardly temperament, he doesn't care much about the killings in the village, let alone participate in any power struggles, but Wang Quyi is his brother after all, and he understands what his brothers worry about day and night.Therefore, he also knows some of the reasons why Xiao Yuansui was urgently called back to the village this time. Wang Quyi specially asked him to welcome Xiao Yuansui. Sui discovers something and flees.

Looking at it now, with only a few followers, not even large weapons, Wang Quren was relieved in his heart.

Then he said: "Having said that, but you are the second in charge in the village after all, so it's a big deal for you to come back. Brother is already waiting for you at the gate of the village—"

After finishing speaking, he turned his head and said to a follower who was following him: "Hurry up and report the letter, and say that the second master has arrived at the foot of the mountain, so go up the mountain immediately."

The attendant took the order, turned the horse's head and ran up the mountain.

Wang Quren smiled at Xiao Yuansui again: "Second brother, let's go."

Xiao Yuansui looked at him, and at the attendant who had disappeared with a cloud of smoke, he also smiled, reached out and brushed off his sleeves, although his cuffs were tightly tied for the convenience of riding a horse, this The action also seems a bit redundant.And after he finished this action, he also raised his hand: "Let's go, I miss my elder brother very much."

So, a group of people merged all the way and walked up the mountain.

And although the few people who followed Xiao Yuansui looked distressed, they had no chance to say anything at this time, so they could only follow up the mountain vigilantly.

However, when leaving the gazebo, Xiao Yuansui glanced back intentionally or unintentionally. On the stone tablet outside the gazebo, the word "Wang Gang" that was as red as blood was deeply reflected in his eyes.

Xiao Yuansui pursed his lips slightly, and turned his head to go up the mountain.

Although Wanggang Village is surrounded by mountains, the mountain road is not particularly dangerous, and it is wide and wide. Some places can even accommodate several carriages at the same time, so they walked smoothly. After a while, when they turned around Behind a huge rock, when Xiao Yuansui raised his head, he saw a flat road ahead, and two arrow towers came into view.

This was after he entered Wanggangzhai and reminded Wang Quyi to build it, in order to overlook the several mountain roads close to the village, avoid enemy sneak attacks, and at the same time monitor the team patrolling the mountain roads; on both sides of the arrow tower, there are tall The high wall surrounded by wooden fences is sharply cut, not to mention that Xiaoxiao wants to sneak into it, even birds can hardly stay on the top of the wall. This is also built by his supervisor.

With these, Wanggangzhai has changed from an ordinary cottage at the beginning to a strong fortress in front of us today.

In the middle of the two arrow towers is the gate of Wanggang Village!
At this moment, the gate was already full of people, and the one standing in the middle, the thick and bearded man, was the head of Wang Gangzhai——Wang Quyi!

Compared with Wang Quren, although their brothers look similar, no one can't tell the two apart.Because Wang Quren looks sad, but Wang Quyi is very shrewd. His expression always reminds people of a person walking in the desert and suddenly sees a spring. Although his face is full of beards, it is almost impossible to see his facial features. , those eyes deep in the beard and hair were not big, but they were piercing, especially when they saw Xiao Yuansui and others walking up this mountain road, those eyes were firmly nailed on Xiao Yuansui's body.

Immediately afterwards, he looked behind Xiao Yuansui.

Just now Wang Quren sent someone back to report and made it clear that Xiao Yuansui did not bring too many people back to the village this time, not even Hua Ziying, but he only believed it after seeing it with his own eyes. It was only a few more people than Wang Quren went down the mountain to pick him up.

Wang Quyi was overjoyed immediately.

Then, he laughed loudly at the people around him.While laughing, he said: "It can be regarded as coming back!"

Although there was still some distance from the gate of the village, Xiao Yuansui had already rolled over and got off the horse. He straightened his clothes, You Qi dusted off his cuffs, and walked quickly towards the gate with a smile on his face.

Seeing him like this, Wang Quren and others couldn't ride their horses any more, they all got off their horses one after another, and followed him along the mountain path leading their horses.

After a while, Xiao Yuansui walked quickly outside the gate alone.

When he was still dozens of steps away from the gate, he had already bowed his hands to Wang Quyi and said loudly, "Brother!"

After speaking, he knelt down on one knee.

Seeing him like this, Wang Quyi couldn't just stand still, he hurriedly strode forward and grabbed his arm to prevent him from bowing down, pulled him up abruptly, and reproached him: "You and I Brother, what do you need such a vain courtesy for?"

Xiao Yuansui said: "Brother, how can I trouble you to come in person?"

That Wang Quyi laughed twice again, the smile was like a thunderbolt, close to his ears, shaking Xiao Yuansui's eardrums buzzing, while he was laughing, he patted Xiao Yuansui's shoulder vigorously with his palm , Said: "Brother, you are fighting outside, you have worked hard, and finally came back. If I don't come to pick you up in person, should I let you enter the village quietly? What's the point!"

"Big brother..."

Xiao Yuansui looked at him with a moved face, and said in a deep voice: "Brother is fighting outside. Although he is bleeding and sweating, he doesn't feel bitter at all when he thinks that he is fighting for the elder brother. Now that Dongdu has been taken, As long as we work together, march into Daxing, and take this city, won’t this world be yours in the future?!”

"Good! Good brother!"

Wang Quyi said excitedly, reached out and hugged Xiao Yuansui, and patted his back hard.

Xiao Yuansui also took advantage of the situation to hug him, while patting his back, while looking behind him, the people who lined up to greet him——

He didn't care much about the other people, the most important thing was the tallest and burly man in the crowd, who looked like the third arrow tower at the gate of the village.This person is only in his early thirties, and he also has a dense beard that looks like a needle prick, but it is trimmed properly so that people can clearly see his facial features, which are as deep as carved from rough rocks, and the eye sockets are also deep. , the dark and round pupils are always inserted upwards, revealing arrogance.

He is Shen Tutai who is so powerful in the world.

Although he followed Wang Quyi to welcome him, he obviously had no enthusiasm for Xiao Yuansui, and when he saw him coming back, he just stood at the gate with a little impatient look on his face.

But Wang Quyi was still extremely enthusiastic, patted Xiao Yuansui on the back, and said: "Let's go, second brother, let's enter the village!"

Xiao Yuansui didn't move, he only looked at the people at the door, and then said: "Brother, where are the fourth brothers?"

Seeing that he was not moving, Wang Quyi frowned slightly, but immediately put on a smile all over his face, and said, "Fourth brother has something to do, he hasn't come back yet."

"That's it,"

Xiao Yuansui nodded, and said again: "Then, what about the sixth and eighth younger brothers, why haven't you seen them?"

"This--"

A strange look appeared on Wang Quyi's face, and he said, "Second brother, in fact, I called you back this time because of the two of them."

"Oh? What's the matter?"

"Don't stand at the door and say, come on, follow me into the village first, and we'll talk after we go in. I've prepared good wine for you."

As he said that, Wang Quyi dragged him inside again.

But Xiao Yuansui still walked slowly, and stopped a dozen steps away from the gate of the village, and said, "By the way, where is the ninth brother?"

A trace of impatience and panic appeared in Wang Quyi's eyes.

But he still said immediately: "He, I don't know where he went."

"Didn't someone be sent to look for it?"

"I looked for it, but I haven't heard back yet."

While Wang Quyi was talking, he greeted him: "Hurry up and enter the village, if you go in later, the food and wine inside will be cold."

Xiao Yuansui nodded, but said again: "By the way, big brother, actually, I have one more thing to give you when I come back this time."

"Oh?"

When Wang Quyi heard this, even though he was anxious to let him enter the stronghold, he couldn't help but stop, and turned around and said, "What—"

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Yuansui's tight cuffs suddenly fell apart for no reason.

Wang Quyi was taken aback when he saw this, but he hadn't reacted yet, even before the people who were standing behind him at the door to greet him hadn't seen clearly what was going on, Xiao Yuansui's hand had already been inserted into his sleeve, and he slid out from inside. A cold light came out, and at the moment Wang Quyi turned his head, he wiped lightly along his neck——
