Chapter 12 Long-term plan
The book is followed last time.
But after Mr. Xie San took the medicine prescribed by Fairy Miaoshou, two days and two nights later, on the morning of the third day, he finally woke up from his coma.
This awakening really seemed like a different life.
Before Xie Run fainted, he was still in the General Administration of Yiyong Escort Agency. Unexpectedly, when he closed his eyes, he was already in an inn in Anqiu. After asking about his days, he realized that he had been in a coma for nearly ten days.
When Zuo Erye woke up, he was so excited that he cried and couldn't even explain it. The other people on the side told Xie Run about many things that happened these days.
When Xie Run heard this, he was also surprised and moved. After hearing this, he immediately got up and kowtowed to his second brother. Unfortunately, he found that he had no strength to sit up as soon as he tried his best...
Of course, this is normal.
The power of the "life-thief" is not a joke. Generally speaking, even if a person is hungry for ten days, he cannot quickly become a strong man and skinny. However, those who are plagued by this evil curse will lose a layer of skin in one day... Master Xie San was really lucky to be able to hold him down this time. He can only say that his skills for more than 30 years have not been in vain.
To put it short, after Mr. Zuo Ercang cried for a while, he finally remembered the serious matter at the reminder of others. So he quickly sent someone to invite the fairy Miaoshou to come for a follow-up visit, and at the same time he also asked someone to inform Shuangxie.
However, since this was in the morning, Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai had not yet gotten up, so the master and apprentice Hu Ning'er and Xin'er got the first step.
This fairy with magical hands is quite medically ethical. Although she had already accepted the medical fee from Yiyong Escort Agency, she decided to wait until Xie Run woke up before leaving Anqiu, so as not to change anything in the past few days.
At present, Hu Ning'er looked at Xie Run's condition and prescribed two more prescriptions, saying that it was the first dose of medicine in the first half month, and then the second dose was changed to the second dose in half month. At the same time, she also wrote some points to pay attention to in daily life, and promised that as long as she did what she wrote, Xie Run could recover from her original state within two months.
After getting this prescription, Zuo Erye naturally thanked her again and even planned to add some money, but Hu Ning'er still refused - she is also an old man, and she will not understand the principle of "collect as much as you do"
If you take less business in the world, you are willing to take care of it, but if you take too much... you have to be careful, maybe you will have to "repay" one day.
Hu Ning'er has been thinking about it these days and vaguely felt that what happened to Xie Run was not simple. No matter whether there was really a "ghost and god technique" here, she didn't want to get involved. So after prescribing the last two medicines this morning, she said goodbye to Master Zuo Er and Master Xie San on the spot, and took his apprentice Xin'er and left the city without stopping.
As soon as they left, Sun and Huang arrived.
These two guys...you know. As soon as you enter the house, you will talk cheaply. While calling him brother and brother to Mr. Xie San, you will repeatedly mention that they are the main force who saves his life.
Finally, we will summarize Sun Yixie's sentence "It's all for brothers" as the final summary. Basically, it is unilaterally announcing that Yi Yongjie Agency has owed them a huge favor. If they don't pay it back in the future, it will be shameless.
The key is that they sang and stood there and were very natural in their lyrics. Zuo Erye and Xie Sanye were both straightforward men, and they didn't realize anything was wrong.
However, the two men standing beside him muttered in their hands: "These two young men are thick-skinned... When we went to treat you just now, you stayed in bed, shit, wash, and eat breakfast... There was no delay. I didn't see you too anxious on the way. Just the few steps before entering the house, you two took a very exciting step... As a result, after entering, you can still put on such a deep and affectionate state... Why does this thief feel more powerful than our thirties and forties?"
Of course, no matter how much they think about it, it is still difficult to say this...
Anyway, after some greetings, Sun and Huang were not in a hurry to ask Xie Run for clues. The most urgent thing is to ask Master Xie San to take a shower first.
Some people may wonder, is this matter so urgent?
Think about it... At that time, it was not like now. In modern hospitals, unconscious patients could rely on infusion to maintain their lives, and excretion could also be solved by catheters. But in ancient times, in the case of Xie Sanye, he could only send someone to feed him some rice soup on time and in dosage every day, and then he had to go the original route. Every time there was a "thing" coming out, someone had to clean it up for him... After nearly ten days, even if he was changing clothes and scrubbing every day, the smell was predictable.
Now that Mr. Xie has woken up, Fairy Hu has also told him that he can take a bath before leaving, so he will help him aside the smell on his body.
Don’t think that my book is too long-winded. I am used to the story of "a character is in a coma for several days, without eating, drinking, or urinating, and can act as usual without waking up." It’s okay to listen to this nagging occasionally.
Around noon, several servants served Mr. Xie San to take a shower, carried him to bed, fed him a few bites and then finished the medicine. At this time... Sun Yixie, Huang Donglai and Zuo Dingkun came to Xie Run's room again, and sent all the idle people out to discuss the matter.
Because Miaoyinzi's words were paved, Xie Run did not worry about the "industry norms" of the escort agency anymore. He quickly told him about the past and after the escort that Miaoyinzi had taken to him.
"I didn't expect..." After saying that, Xie Run sighed, "The person who came to ask me about it after the 'cause' is the two virtuous brothers."
"Hey, don't say you didn't expect that, we didn't." Huang Donglai was dissuading his master at this moment, thinking that since you have already come to this matter, you have also counted me in it. I'm afraid I can't care about it anymore?
As for Sun Yixi, after listening to what Xie Run said, he was a little silent for a moment, and then asked again: "Brother Xie, you just said that when you went to Wujian Villa to hand in the escort, was the owner Xiao Zhun personally met you?"
"Yes." Xie Run replied.
"Yes." Sun Yixie nodded, "Is that he handed you the tail silver for this raft with his own hands?"
"Hiss..." Xie Run thought for a moment after hearing this, but he couldn't remember the details of a year ago. "At that time... the owner of the village seemed to be sitting and talking to me, and then...oh! Then he called someone out from the back room, and it was the one who handed me the tail silver."
"Oh?" When Sun Yixie heard this, his small eyes suddenly shone. "What kind of person?"
"This..." This question made Xie Run look puzzled, "...I really can't remember this. I think he should be a not very eye-catching person, so I just thought he was an ordinary servant in Wujian Villa and didn't pay attention."
"When he gave you money, was there anything unusual?" Sun Yixie continued to ask.
"Exception..." Xie Run frowned and recalled again and again, "...No."
"Then what is the tail silver you got?" Sun Yixie changed his question.
"Eh?" Xie Run suddenly thought of something again after being so little. "When you say this, I remember... The silver I received at that time was packed in a very large wooden box, with silver ingots, broken silver, and strings of copper coins, in short, there were whole and small... The owner of the manor Xiao also explained to me that the accountant in their villa was in a bad condition recently and had not been to the money house for a while, so he could not find a large-denomination silver note. He could only pay this way, so he didn't take it a word."
"Fuck..." At this moment, Zuo Dingkun couldn't sit still because he had heard Huang Dong talk about the principle of "life-threatening stolen money" in advance, so he had already understood when he heard the word "copper coins". After Xie Run finished the whole passage, Zuo Erye stood up and cursed, "Okay, Xiao Zhun... Everyone said that Wujian Villa is not in conflict with the world, and the sword master is unfathomable... I didn't expect that your surname Xiao was such a vicious person, who used such a sinister method to assassinate my third brother! I...I..."
Although Zuo Erye wanted to say "I, Zuo Dingkun, vowed to tear you apart", he found that it was a bit difficult to say when he said that.
Why?
Very simple - this matter is difficult.
Zuo Dingkun's martial arts are certainly good, almost at the level of deputy heads of those high sects, but compared to Xiao Zhun, who is recognized as the top swordsman in the world... he is afraid he is not enough to see it.
Not to mention that he is not good enough, even if the three leaders of their Yiyong Escort Agency join forces, they may not be Xiao Zhun's opponent.
Let’s talk further, although Yiyong Escort Agency is known as the First Escort Agency in the Central Plains and there are many experts in the Escort Agency, it is probably a bit of danger to face Wujian Villa, which is the "elite monster per capita".
"Zuo Erye is a little restless, and you have to make a long-term plan for this matter..." Two seconds later, Sun Yixie seemed to have seen through Zuo Dingkun's thoughts, so he followed this sentence with the flow.
"Well..." Zuo Dingkun also vented his anger from his nostrils, forcibly suppressing the fire, and then continued, "My brother is right..."
"Second brother, Yixi, what are you talking about? What did this Lord Xiao do?" Xie Run didn't know that his "illness" this time was caused by someone's curse, so he asked with confusion.
At this time, Huang Donglai told him about the "life-threatening stolen" incident.
Xie Run had seen demons and strange things when he was in Lanruo Temple. In addition, he trusted Sun and Huang very much, so of course he believed it immediately. Now that he combined this matter with Miao Yinzi's words and recalled it, he suddenly felt enlightened.
"So that..." Xie Run thought, "Then Xiao Zhun wanted to kill my life must be related to the 'thing' I escorted."
"No," Zuo Dingkun also continued, "He is going to kill someone to silence him!" But after saying this, he suddenly thought of something, "Hey? No... Since it's killing someone to silence him, why did he have to wait so long before he started?"
"That's not simple." Huang Donglai continued, "If something happened soon after Brother Xie sent the escort, you would definitely be suspicious of Xiao Zhun immediately."
"Well..." Xie Run thought for a moment and continued, "But... he doesn't need to wait for a whole year, right? As long as he takes action three or four months, no one will think of him."
After he said this, Huang Donglai and Zuo Dingkun were also a little confused, but Sun Yixie continued with a confident look: "That's 'too early'."
"Is it still early after so long?" Xie Run said.
"My 'too early'... does not mean that the timing was not far from the day you finished the marches, but that it was too early than 'now' at that time." Sun Yixie said and even the English words popped up.
"Uh... Yixie, Brother Yu is a little confused." Xie Run really couldn't understand, and in various senses.
Huang Donglai and Zuo Dingkun also looked at Sun Yixie with inquiring expressions.
"Brother Xie, think about it... If you are really killed by Xiao Zhun's spell, then will the Yongye Bureau investigate the whole or the other?" Sun Yixie said.
Zuo Dingkun whispered loudly at that time: "That's more important! Even if others don't check it, Zuo will have to investigate it to the end! Even if it's ten or twenty years, as long as I have a breath, I must find out the truth..."
"Okay, okay..." Sun Yixie interrupted, "We all understand what Brother Zuo means, so I'll ask again... If Brother Zuo keeps investigating like this, is it possible to find out that Brother Xie died of the technique of "stealing life"?"
"It's hard to say..." Huang Donglai continued, "Generally speaking, according to the ideas of the people in the martial arts world, they will not investigate this aspect, but if they really can't find anything, they will be mentally sanitary..."
"Then you say..." Sun Yixie interrupted Huang Donglai again, "With the calculating personality of Master Xiao, will he be wary of this situation?"
"Ha..." Huang Donglai followed Sun Yixie's thoughts, "Then what you want to say... the details of Xiao's surname are a bit good. No matter whether Brother Zuo will do that, in Xiao Zhun's mind, he must be on guard against this move."
Sun Yixie nodded and continued, "So, from his perspective, if you do it too early, will it be possible that others will find him on the head before he implements his 'big plan'?"
"In this way... his choice to take action now means that his 'big plan' is about to be started, or has already begun?" Huang Donglai continued.
"That's right." Sun Yixie narrowed his eyes and smiled, "It's very possible."
Their ideas matched each other, but Zuo Dingkun and Xie Run had not yet followed. They were stunned for a while before Zuo Dingkun asked, "Two brothers, what's the 'big plan' you mentioned?"
Upon hearing this, Sun Huang and the others exchanged glances, and then Sun Yixie told him about what he had pulled out from Kang Haijiao three months ago about Xiao Zhun collecting the blood and swords of the swordsmen.
When Mr. Zuo Er and Mr. Xie San heard this strange thing, combined with the situation where someone under Xiao Zhun might use the "demon technique"... they felt their scalp numb at that time, because it was hard for them to imagine what Xiao Zhun was doing...
"Two brothers, this matter is quite serious..." Zuo Dingkun said seriously, "According to what you said, what Xiao Zhun is doing is probably a major event that can shake the entire martial arts world, otherwise he would not have dared to attack the third leader of our Yiyong Escort Agency just for the sake of precautions."
"Yes..." Xie Run also continued nervously, "In my opinion, now is no longer the time to seek personal revenge for Xie. We must immediately post martial arts posts and inform everyone of Xiao Zhun's conspiracy..."
"Has~" Sun Yixie turned his head to the sky before Xie Run finished speaking, sneered, "I'm furry..." One of his catchphrases also blurted out, "We don't have any evidence at hand, we just rely on the four of us to talk about a story about 'life-threatening sword' and 'blood sword', and wanted the whole martial arts world to help us fuck Xiao Zhun?" He paused, "This kind of approach will not only fail, but will also alert the snake..."
"What do you mean by Brother Sun?" Huang Dongzi knew that Sun Yixie had an idea, so he asked with the flow.
"Didn't I say it, I'll make a long-term plan..." Sun Yixie said, "Since we have already speculated that Brother Xie's curse was a signal that Xiao Zhun's plan was activated, then the person surnamed Xiao must have taken action soon... and his actions must be related to the thing that Brother Xie escorted, and it is still the kind of public... We should make good use of our existing advantages, wait and see the change, and lead the snake out of the hole, so that we can get the advantage..."
