Chapter 4 Cracks
Chapter 4: Cracked
As soon as the door was closed, the noise just now suddenly calmed down.
Tang Zhao stood in front of the door and looked up at the door of Xue's mansion.
No matter whether it is rich or poor, there is no lintel on the Bai Ding Party, who has no fame, but Xue Daxia is a martial artist and a forbidden hero, but now his lintel is very eye-catching.
On the sandalwood lintel, a sword was carved in the shape of a sword, like a scabbard, waiting for a sword to return to hide.
Below the sword shape, there are four large characters engraved:
"Suppress one side!"
Tang Zhao was stunned and suddenly heard a strange noise behind him.
A yellow shadow jumped down from the wall.
It was a tabby cat, swaying by his side with unrecognizable relatives.
Tang Zhao thought to himself: This cat... is so fat! Unexpectedly, both cats and dogs were included in the Xue Mansion.
The cat twisted and walked over, suddenly turned around, squinted his eyes and looked at Tang Zhao, with a look of contempt on his fat face.
Huh?
Tang Zhao was stunned, and suddenly felt a sudden heart, and he thought: Dogs are evil dogs, cats are fierce cats!

There was a sound of horse hooves behind him.
A red horse ran like a flying horse and drove straight to Xue's mansion, and stopped the horse ten feet away from the mansion gate.
The knight immediately jumped off the horse, and a big red cloak floated in the wind.
The visitor was a military officer. When he came to the door, he pushed open the door and drove straight in.
Tang Zhao was stunned. He was very evident in how difficult it was to enter the Xue Mansion gate. This man was able to break through the door. I thought he was a big shot. He glanced at the time and felt that the other party was not very old. I don’t know what official position he was.
The big man entered the door and it became quiet outside again.
As time went by, Tang Zhao gradually felt his legs and feet numb.
"Shaozi?"
Hearing Sui Feng's voice, Tang Zhao turned around and saw him rushing over and said, "Why don't we go first? This big family shouldn't have come from us. My father told me before that we should not break the situation, and we must take you back properly. It's nothing to go back, so you can't get a bowl of rice with us?"
Tang Zhao looked up at the wide door lintel and said, "Yes. I wanted to leave just now. But he told me at the end of his life... I sent the token in any case and must be taken back. I had already lost one in the woods just now. Can I throw another one?"
I heard the sound of footsteps in the door, and the old door came out.
Tang Zhao's heart sank.
It seems that the nose is not the nose, the face is not the face.
The little old man didn't look at Tang Zhao directly, but looked away, saying, "That...that...who just now?"
Tang Zhao calmed down and said, "Student Tang Zhao."
"I don't care if you are Tang Zhao, Shui Zhao—" the old man's voice suddenly rose, very harsh, "You came to Xue Mansion to cheat, you are looking for the wrong person! Open your eyes and see, where is this place? Is it a place where you are poor and eat and drink?"
Tang Zhao couldn't speak for a moment, and Sui Feng stepped forward in panic and said, "Master, we don't..."
"Ba"
The little old man threw a box on Tang Zhao's head. Tang Zhao hurriedly grabbed it and held it tightly in his hand.
Open the box and reveal a rare object in the world. It is like a metal rack of two crystals.
That was a pair of glasses.
The glasses were covered with cracks.
One lens has a thick crack that cuts the lens between the waist, while the other one cracks, like a piece of porcelain with a piece of open.
Tang Zhao looked down, staring blankly, his fingers trembled and opened his glasses, lifting them up to the sun.
Because the lenses were broken, they were framed by the frames, and they could not see the light. Tang Zhao's eyes were hidden behind the fragments, and he could not see the eyes at all, and he could only see his lips tightly pursed into a line.
The old man probably saw glasses for the first time, his expression slowed down a little, but his tone was not slow: "Take your ghost stuff and your messy letter to me get out!"
As he said that, he threw the letter to Tang Zhao again, smashed it directly into his arms, and then fell to the ground along his clothes.
Tang Zhao leaned down, picked up the letter, squatted on the ground, folded his glasses, and put them back into the box with great care.
The whole process was silent.
Although the old man was not tall, even if he was not much taller than Tang Zhao, he was condescending because of the different postures of the two. He sneered: "I said get out, I didn't tell you to go out to a corner outside the wall. At least get out of me... Heyang County! Heyang County is not small, but there is no place to stand for the liar. Just today! Just night! Get out of the county before tomorrow! Otherwise... you ask who Xue Daxia is, and it's only a matter of asking for a person's head! It's also your kid who is lucky. My dog hasn't come back yet, otherwise do you want to go out in a hurry?"
As he said that, he turned around, his voice slowed down, and he said angrily: "It's so unlucky. I met two people asking for food in a day..."
Seeing that he was about to leave, Tang Zhao, who had been silent all the time, suddenly said: "Please wait."
The old man frowned and turned around.
Tang Zhao stood up slowly, put the letter and the token in his arms, his face still pale, his hands overlapping, and bowed his hand to the courtesy.
"Thank you for the Xue Mansion's generous gifts, and also for the gentleman's good advice. I just wish you were useless."
The old man looked gloomy and said, "Don't bully the old man and don't study. I know that you are so mean to be so sarcastic. What do you mean?"
Tang Zhao looked calm and his tone was also very calm, and he said, "As the gentleman said, I am a hundred useless scholars, and everything I say is in vain. It is better to obey your orders than respect. I have to run away overnight as you said..."
At this time, Sui Feng became more and more cramped. He wanted to speak but stopped several times, and finally grabbed the reins of the donkey.
Tang Zhao's speech is clear and his voice is Lang Lang:
"In any case, I will remember what happened today. I am powerless today and I am ashamed of myself. If I succeed in the future, the house will be as safe as before. I will come back to visit again, and then I will be rewarded."
The old man slapped the door frame and said, "I understand. You are really sarcastic about us! Wait until my dog comes back-"
Suddenly, someone laughed and said, "This kid is so funny!"
A red look came to his face, and a man with a military officer looked like a stroll across the middle door. When he walked past the old man, he had no intention of giving way. The old man squeezed out a few steps for him, almost fell down, stood sideways, his face looked extremely ugly.
At the same time, Sui Feng found an opportunity and pulled Tang Zhao back.
The red cloak stood among the two, looking down at Tang Zhao. Because of his height, he looked down at Tang Zhao. Even if Sui Feng was one head shorter than him, no one could look at him in a right way.
The first time Tang Zhao faced him, he saw that he was twenty-seven or eight years old, with his sword eyebrows raised, and was full of heroic spirit. There was a long sheathed sword hanging outside the red cloak, and there was a black public uniform inside. There seemed to be other objects hanging around his waist, so he couldn't see clearly for a while.
He stared at Tang Zhao and smiled and said, "This kid looks smart and has a sense of stupidity, which is particularly interesting."
The old man said angrily: "Sir, this is ours..."
The red cloak waved his hand and said, "Okay, don't you tell him to get out? What else do you want? Do you still have to send him a trip?" After a pause, he said, "Is it because I have no money?"
Tang Zhao was stunned for a moment and said, "Students... have their own."
The red cloak said, "Does I have to give you something?" He wiped it around his waist and threw out a little light, "I picked it up in the forest and gave it to you."
Tang Zhao subconsciously caught it, looked closely and was stunned.
The golden object is his long-lived lock.
Gold is still the same gold, and jade is still the same piece of jade.
However, a shocking scar appeared on the jade, almost half of the white jade.
It broke, too...
Tang Zhao stared at the scratch, feeling that it was like staring at the deep gully in front of the mansion, even deeper than the natural chasm, and it was bottomless. After staring for too long, his eyes gradually blurred, and everything around him began to tilt and rotate...
"Zhaozi...Zhaozi..."
Sui Feng's rapid voice made him wake up a little, but his head became heavier.
He pressed his fingers on his temples, forcing himself to remain clear.
Turning back, the red cloak was still standing there, and the headache made his vision blur, and even the man's facial features became weird.
He suppressed the discomfort in his mind and lowered his head and said, "Student, thank you sir...":
Suddenly my body stiffened and cold sweat fell.
I saw spots of blood on the red cloak. Because it was bright red, I couldn't see it without looking closely. After seeing it, Fang Jue's blood color was dazzling!
Following the bloodstains, I saw a bloody head half-covered inside the cloak!
After his vision darkened, Tang Zhao completely lost consciousness.
