Chapter 160 Serious Injury

Not long after, Qing Lian also walked out of He Mingxuan. He was also low-key, and when she left He Mingxuan's gate, the clerk who was guarding the list mentioned the name in the middle to the first place. "Jiangnan student Xue Zhian, the top scholar, with 4,000 bets!"

The guy's shouts spread again throughout the restaurant. Not only was the diners shocked, but even the shopkeeper Lin, who was looking at the account book on the second floor, almost dropped the account book on the ground. Who was so generous? He looked downstairs, but didn't see anything. Ye Ningyu ran to many restaurants in one afternoon. Every time he went to a place, he changed his bets, almost all the names on the top scorer list. Of course, except for the two Ye Anzheng brothers, the last restaurant came out, and the master and servant were sitting in the carriage. Guard Xiao drove the carriage slowly on the street and did not return to the house first. Qing Lian silently calculated the expenses today. Here, there were 1,000 taels and there 2,000 taels. Today, the big girl bet more than 7,000 taels. The big girl has never been an extravagant person, and today's behavior is really strange. "Why should the girl suppress others, but she won't give us the momentum?"

Luzhu finally couldn't help but ask. Ye Ningyu on the carriage held a military book in his hand, and did not look up, but just smiled. "The top scorer list is just a fun for the people after dinner. Even if he ranks first in the top scorer list, can he really win the top scorer?"

Not for the sake of increasing momentum? The two girls were stunned again. "Girl, we spent more than 7,000 taels of silver today."

Qing Lian reminded in a low voice. Ye Ningyu nodded, and she naturally knew it. "We don't have these money in our mansion."

Qinglian was stunned again. It was not for the sake of increasing momentum, but she didn't feel sorry for the 7,000 taels of water. The eldest girl's approach really puzzled them. "Girl, then today you are..." Qinglian is a rule-based person and rarely asks about the master's thoughts. But she really couldn't understand this today. "No one can tell the result of the palace examination. A Zheng and A Jun are too trendy. If there are too many people who bet, the top scorer will not be them in the end. There are few people who lose money and must vent their anger on them. In the future, I don't know how many infamous he will bear."

When the two of them heard this, they immediately realized. No wonder the eldest girl kept betting on others. In fact, it doesn’t matter who it is, as long as it is not their own two young masters, it is fine. The girl’s intention is really good. Qing Lian no longer spoke. As Ye Ningyu expected, just half an hour later, the top scorers in major restaurants changed. People like to follow the trend and follow the crowd. Seeing that other people’s voices were louder, many of them were ready to bet on the two young masters of the Ye family, and began to think about putting their targets on other students. For a moment, the few talented men in Jiangnan were calling louder than the students in the Metropolitan City. Seeing that the situation was developing in the direction they expected, Ye Ningyu was very satisfied. "Let's go."

She ordered several people. Guard Xiao turned the carriage, and several people walked towards the Ye Mansion. Ye Mansion was in the south of the city. They were now in the east and they had to go back to Ye Mansion for a short time. So there was nothing big today. Ye Ningyu asked Guard Xiao to drive slowly and pretend to be relaxed. The carriage swayed all the way, and Ye Ningyu's head was dizzy and fell asleep in the car. Qing Lian and the others quickly took out a blanket to cover her, and their movements were very light, not waking her. In the dream, Ye Ningyu heard a shallow moan. The sound was not high and did not last long, and it seemed like a sound. Bang! A heavy sound sounded from somewhere, like the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground. Ye Ningyu suddenly opened his eyes, and she felt that it seemed not a dream, but a real voice from around. "What did you hear?"

Ye Ningyu asked the two girls. "No."

The two shook their heads and answered in unison. Ye Ningyu frowned and was about to lift the curtain to ask Guard Xiao outside, the carriage slowly stopped. "Girl."

Guard Xiao, who was sitting in the coachman's position, spoke first. Ye Ningyu lifted the curtain, "What's wrong?"

"There seems to be something different over there."

Guard Xiao pointed to a small alley on the right side of the carriage and said, "Did you hear it too?"

Ye Ningyu looked at Guard Xiao, and saw his usual vigilance of martial arts practitioners. He became more and more sure that the sound he had just heard was not from his dream. Guard Xiao nodded and looked in the direction of the alley. "It seems there."

Ye Ningyu looked in that direction. This was an extremely narrow alley, and it was even a little dirty. From a distance, the alley, about a hundred steps away, was filled with abandoned baskets, straw piles, dilapidated wooden barrels and other debris. Even a carriage was not accessible in the alley. At this time, the location of the carriage was next to the avenue at the entrance of the alley. "Girl, go and have a look."

Guard Xiao first solicited Ye Ningyu's opinion. Seeing the eldest girl nodded in agreement, Guard Xiao got off the carriage and walked step by step towards the middle of the alley. It was afternoon, and it was almost dusk. There was not much sunlight in the alley, and there was almost no other person. Guard Xiao walked very carefully and kept the alertness of martial arts practitioners at all times. He listened as he walked along the way, but he seemed to have no sound again. Strange, he just heard wrong? It was impossible. He could hear wrong, but he could not hear wrong with the eldest girl at the same time. In addition to the sound just now, there was indeed a sound of melancholy. Guard Xiao held the hilt of the sword at his waist with one hand and fist with the other, ready to deal with the various possibilities that appeared in front of him at any time. Suddenly, his steps were paused. "Hu..." A shallow breath sounded again, a little weak, and it seemed that this breath used up all the strength of a person.

The sound was very shallow, but Guard Xiao still found the source with this faint sound. He took out the hilt of the sword and walked towards a straw pile five steps ahead. Guard Xiao used the hilt of the sword to push away the top layer of straw floating on the top, and suddenly, his eyes sank. After seeing the situation in the straw pile, Guard Xiao subconsciously took a step back. After coming back to his senses, Guard Xiao felt that this face was familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere. He stepped forward again and looked at the person lying inside. It was a young man in a little ragged clothes, his face was pale as snow at this time. A stream of blood seemed to be left from his head, and a pool of blood had dried up in the withered straw pile. Guard Xiao reached his hand under the man's nose and could feel a slight breath. He had a plan in his mind and walked back to the carriage quickly. "Girl, it's an injured person."

Ye Ningyu got off the carriage and walked quickly to the straw pile. When he saw the pale face, a name came to her mind. Xu Mingzhou. Is it him? Ye Ningyu frowned. Is he a candidate this year? Why did he appear here and suffer such serious injuries? Looking at his injury, it seemed to be on the back of his head, not like he was bumping. Moreover, if he had been injured himself, how could he lie in this straw pile and be covered tightly. If she hadn't practiced martial arts with Guard Xiao, his ears were much better than ordinary people, he wouldn't have been discovered. "Girl, this person is almost out of breath."
