Xia Zhi was so excited that he didn't fall asleep until midnight because of the settlement of the wine shop.The next day, with dark circles under her eyes, she followed Wen Xian out.

This time Wen Xian didn't bring Zhu San, so she and Xia Zhi went alone.

This morning, Ruyi Winery was still as usual, with only one waiter cleaning up the shop.

However, Wen Xian noticed with sharp eyes that the floor at the door was brighter and the store door was cleaner.

Seeing Wen Xian and Xia Zhi coming, the waiter hurriedly came up to greet them and said with a smile: "You two gentlemen are here. My shopkeeper has been waiting in the backyard for a long time."

Most of the time, the few jars of female red wine sold by the shopkeeper are rare, and the price will be much higher.

That's why yesterday, when the shopkeeper heard that someone wanted to buy this wine, he took it so seriously and asked him to clean the house three times.

Wen Xian nodded and said, "Please show me the way."

She could tell that the waiter in the shop really didn't know anything and was probably just there to confuse the enemy.

The waiter quickly put down the handkerchief, took the person to the backyard, and then turned around and returned to the shop in front.

In the yard at the moment, a man and a woman were playing Go.

Wen Xian watched from a distance. Although the two people looked calm, their minds were not on the chessboard at all.

Especially the woman facing them would glance at her and Xia Zhi from time to time.

Seeing the two of them coming in, the two of them didn't get up. Only the man with his back to them turned his head and glanced, and then said leisurely: "Are you two wanting to buy the five-year daughter's red?"

He was very disappointed and thought it was his master who came back, but unexpectedly it was two men.

Yes, the master has been buried in the sea with no bones left. What is he still expecting?

"Wrong." Xia Zhi took a step forward and said in his own voice, "What I want to buy is the five-year daughter's red buried under the osmanthus tree. If I buy five jars, I don't want any less, and I don't want the ones that are not under the osmanthus tree. "

With a "click~" sound, the chess piece fell to the ground.

The two people, who were still very calm at first, suddenly stood up and looked at Xia Zhi with some confusion and excitement.

Then, the man suppressed the excitement in his heart and said: "It just so happens that there are indeed five altars. As for the price, please go inside the house and inspect it first before discussing."

Xia Zhi nodded, holding back tears and said, "Okay."

She didn't admit it wrong, he was indeed an old friend and her confidant.

When Wen Xian saw this, she said no more and followed them into the house.But soon she withdrew again, leaning against the door and waiting.

She left space for Xia Zhi and the others, while she helped watch at the door.

After waiting for about half an hour, Xia Zhicai came out with red eyes and two jars of daughter red in his arms.

"Let's go." She said softly, "We are done talking, there is nothing more to explain."

Wen Xian raised her eyebrows and said, "You want to go back with me?"

She thought that if Xia Zhi found her confidant, he would most likely stay.

After all, if you have a life of fine clothes and fine food, why go back to that desert island to live a farm life.

However, Xia Zhi nodded and said: "Of course I want to go back, I want to stay with you."

She has already explained everything that needs to be explained. Next, her people will just do what she asked outside.

She only had to come back from time to time to show up and get some supplies.

Wen Xian raised her eyebrows and said, "Okay, let's go."

No matter what Xia Zhi's plan was, she respected and understood it.

Furthermore, she was actually worried about leaving Xia Zhi here alone.

At least, we need to observe it for a while to prove that these things outside will not endanger Xia Zhi's life at all.

...The trip to the capital went smoothly. Early the next morning, Wen Xian and the others followed Zhu Qing on their way to the county town.

It takes half a day to get from Fucheng to the county, so there is no need to rush.Therefore, the carriage slowed down and Wen Xian had time to enjoy the scenery along the way.

Unfortunately, the scenery along the way is not that beautiful.

In addition to the lush grass and woods on both sides, there is a dusty official road.

From time to time, you will see a few hungry victims digging for wild vegetables on the roadside.

Wen Xian actually doesn't quite understand why Guanping Mansion, a mansion close to the sea, can find a beach to catch the sea and have enough to eat, why there are still disaster victims occasionally.

She didn't understand it, but she didn't think about changing anything.This is not her business and she has no responsibility to do anything.

After getting tired of seeing the same scenery, Wen Xian leaned in the carriage and closed her eyes to relax.

After a long time, she suddenly opened her eyes, opened the car window and looked back.

"Brother, what's wrong?" Xia Zhi asked doubtfully, "But you want to go out to play?"

Wen Xian closed the car window and sat down, then whispered: "We are being followed."

Ever since she left Fucheng, she had the illusion that she was being followed.Just now this illusion became more and more serious, and she was shocked to realize that maybe it was not an illusion.

"Following?" Xia Zhi's pupils narrowed and he couldn't help but hold her hand and asked, "What should I do now?"

There are many possibilities for being followed, but if it is really followed, there are only two final results, bad and good.

If it is bad, then their group may be in danger.

Wen Xian patted her hand and comforted her: "Don't be impatient. I'll ask Zhu San to drive the carriage into the woods later. I want to see who it is."

Who could be so patient? He followed him from Fucheng to Fucheng for an hour but still didn't make any move.

After saying that, she stood up and walked out of the carriage, whispering a few words to Zhu San.

After she returned to the carriage and sat down, Zhu San increased his speed and passed the carriage driven by Zhu Wu in front.

However, when the carriages met and no one saw them, Zhu San quietly made a gesture to Zhu Wu.

Zhu Wu's eyes narrowed slightly, and then he became nervous.Taking advantage of the sound of the carriage to cover it up, he quickly and quietly reported to Zhu Qing in the car.

After getting Zhu Qing's permission, he drove behind Zhu San and drove into the woods.

A quarter of an hour later, Wen Xian and Xia Zhi were lying on a thick tree, holding their breath and staring down.

Zhu Qing and Zhu Wu were standing lightly on the top of another tree.It seems that this difficulty is nothing to them.

Zhu San, on the other hand, was watching the carriage from where it was hidden not far away.

The forest was quiet, except for the chirping of birds, the sound of wind blowing leaves, and the occasional sound of cicadas.

It was hot in midsummer, but it was cool in the woods, so Wen Xian didn't find the time difficult.

According to her estimate, the person following them would arrive at the scene in five minutes at most.

Whether it is a human or a ghost, we will naturally find out later.

Sure enough, within five minutes, the sound of horse hooves could be heard outside the woods.

After a while, two men on horseback appeared in Wen Xian's field of vision.

Her eyes narrowed slightly. If she remembered correctly, one of them should be from the house opposite the back door of Sun Pavilion in Fucheng.

That day when she went back with Xia Zhi, they met at the door.

But that was all, and she never saw this person again after that.

Thanks for the monthly ticket of 'Looking Slowly', I appreciate it~
