After persuading Su Xinghe, Ye Shen told him the doctor's instructions. Su Xinghe was puzzled at first, and more importantly, he couldn't believe it.
Then he looked at the compass carefully, shook his head and said: "If that's the case, then just as you said, destroy him!"
At this time, Ye Rou suddenly stood up and glanced at Bai Ling'er beside her: "Sister Ling'er, do you remember what those soldiers said?"
"They said they would come back to take away the compass. Once they come back and the compass is missing or destroyed, what will they think?"
Ye Rou's words made sense, and Bai Ling'er also felt that if they did that, it would have shown that they were still in the tavern. If the soldiers went back to report, Mao Qiufeng's daughter would not give up.
After much thought, I tried to persuade Ye Shen not to destroy it in a hurry.
But what Ye Shen thought was that if the compass fell into the hands of Mao Qiufeng's daughter, it would definitely bring more disasters. Instead of worrying about it in the future, it would be better to destroy it right now.
As for Mao Qiufeng's daughter and the others, the worst they can do is break out of a tight siege. Besides, Su Xinghe has woken up, and Bai Ling'er, the rulers of the two of them, can't they still take away the four of them?
After Ye Shen's analysis, they jointly decided to destroy the compass.
Since Su Xinghe had not yet recovered, it was difficult to do anything, so the three of them could only do it together, but the strange thing was that the compass could not be damaged no matter what, Ye Shen could not damage it with a knife or a sword, or with his own
Qi Hai Kung Fu, the tripod compass is still intact.
While they were hesitating, Bai Ling'er said loudly: "I know, the main part of this tripod compass should be the pointer, let me try!"
Then Bai Ling'er hit it with a light palm. The pointer swayed back and forth at first, and then fell off with a click. Looking at the entire compass, cracks suddenly appeared everywhere, and it shattered into iron filings in the blink of an eye.
Ye Shen smiled and said to Bai Ling'er: "Ling'er Bingxue is still smart, why didn't I expect that?"
Bai Ling'er also smiled and looked at Ye Rou, glanced at Ye Shen and said, "Huh, what's so clever about this? It's just observation. Zhou Tian also has this ability. How did you learn it after following Zhou Tian for so long? Alas.
!”
Then the two girls laughed out loud. Ye Shen looked at Su Xinghe awkwardly and shrugged at a loss.
Su Xinghe glanced at me and curled his lips: "Haha, you don't have to look at me. These two girls are absolutely right. Zhou Tian's observation is so subtle that no one can match it. If Zhou Tian were here today, he would destroy this tripod compass without any effort.
, there’s no need to think about it for so long!”
"When he finds Zhou Tian one day, you still need to study hard with him!"
Listening to them making fun of themselves, Ye Shen said helplessly: "Okay, now let's prepare how to deal with those soldiers!"
Su Xinghe asked again in confusion: "Didn't you just say that you would use a ruler? Why are you thinking about how to deal with them again?"
Ye Shen frowned and said softly: "Xinghe, it will take two days for your body to recover. In these two days, no one can guarantee whether those soldiers will come again. If they come and can't see the compass, kill or let go.
What do you think?"
Su Xinghe had been studying in the academy for so long. What the Master taught was to hate evil as much as hatred. He said loudly: "Yeshen, you don't have to be so afraid. If they really come to look for the compass in the past two days, then kill them instead of letting them go."
Let them go back and report the news, why not kill them all, which can delay the attack for some time."
After they thought about Su Xinghe's words over and over again, they decided to follow his suggestion and started to prepare immediately.
At the other end of Shiqiao Town, there was still the same tower. Mao Qiufeng's daughter and her husband were talking on the top floor of the tower. Looking at the scene downstairs, they both fell into deep thought.
"Mao Yixin, I know you have been in pain about your father's death, but we have to look forward. At least the wedding ceremony should be held now. I have sent people to bring the fine wine in the tavern to your town.
We are here, and we will invite everyone to a banquet tomorrow to celebrate us!"
Mao Qiufeng's daughter Mao Yixin loves her father the most. Ever since her mother died in childbirth, they have been the only father and daughter to depend on each other, and they can't live without each other. But this time, the murderer cannot be caught.
To this day, even his face cannot be known. When the furious Mao Yixin heard her husband speak like this, she slapped him angrily.
"You are a scum of Haotian Pavilion and a mere spy. If it weren't for the future plans of Shiqiao Town, you think I would marry you! My father had just died a few days ago, and you were already in a hurry to get married.
what are you thinking?"
Her husband was slapped by her for no reason, and he wanted to fight back angrily, but after thinking about it, he endured it: "When your father, Mao Qiufeng, joined Haotian Pavilion, we were not forced to do so. Your father also agreed to my marrying you.
.”
"Besides, your father's murderer is still in the town. I am doing this to narrow the scope of searching for him. If you don't want to get married or entertain people in the town, just say so! Don't make it so difficult for me, Haotian.
You know that I am getting married and will come in a few days. Then you can explain it to them in person."
After hearing what he said, Mao Yixin relaxed a lot and her expression became less serious.
"Hey, I didn't say I won't get married. It's just that my father has just passed away and the time of condolence has not passed yet. Is it a bit too hasty to hold a wedding with such a big fanfare in such a hurry?"
"Even if we have to narrow the scope, there is no need to use our marriage as a bait. I have sent all the soldiers in the town to blockade the town. Even if he gets wings, he will never be able to escape!"
"Wings? Do you really think those soldiers under your command can stop them? There are so many talented people in this world. If they can reach the sky, they really have wings. I want to ask if your soldiers can stop them.
Do you want to stay?"
After listening to her husband's words, Mao Yixin fell into silence again.
"Yixin, I know that your father has just died, and neither the condolence nor the funeral has been completed, but if the wedding is held immediately, the people from Haotian Pavilion will rush there in time. By then, even if the academy master is in Shiqiao Town,
You can’t escape from our grasp, you’d better think about it carefully, you should be very clear about the pros and cons!”
After hearing this, Mao Yixin still felt that it was too hasty. She waved her hand: "You should let me think about it carefully. Getting married is not a child's play. I still don't want our wedding to be just a decoration, just a tool!"
After saying that, Mao Yixin called the maid next to her and turned to leave.
"Yixin, what are you going to do?"
She turned to look at her husband and said softly: "I'm a little uncomfortable. Let's go back to the mayor's mansion to rest first... I'll give you an answer tonight."
After returning to the house, Mao Yixin looked at her father's relics and the memorial tablet hanging in the middle hall. It was only her and a few servants who were empty, and she couldn't help crying.
Even though her father had done many wrong things during his lifetime, he was still the leader of Shiqiao Town. Yet so many days had passed without even a single person offering condolences. Except for a few close soldiers, there was no one else.
She knelt in front of the memorial tablet, her eyes straightened, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
The maid saw that she was very haggard, so she brought a coat and put it on her body: "Miss, I can't blame you for the master's death. Just go back and rest. You have been running around for the master's death for so many days.
Even if you don’t think about your own body, you still have to think about the people of Shiqiao Town!”
Although what the maid said was very reasonable and comforting, Mao Yixin was very harsh when she heard it. She turned around and stood up, walked up to the maid and slapped her in the face, and shouted angrily: "People of Shiqiao Town? Why should I?"
Who care about them? My father is dead and no one of them comes to visit, so they still expect me to take care of them. How can there be such a thing in the world?"
"I am a woman, and I only know that my father's love is greater than anything else. Now that my father is dead, I am already very good if I don't drive away all these unruly people. You still want me to miss them? Get out!"
Mao Yixin pointed to the door of the central hall and shouted loudly. The maid knew that she was feeling miserable, so she covered her swollen face and cried: "Miss!"
Mao Yixin watched her tears flowing down her cheeks: "Get out of here!"
The maid had no choice but to turn around and leave. When the servants outside the central hall saw it, they started talking about it.
"The master provoked so many people during his lifetime. It's been so many days. It's no wonder that the young lady is angry. Although Shiqiao Town is not big, there are hundreds of people. No one is sad or depressed about it."
"Yes, I don't know what wrong things I did, but I heard that I always exploited the people of Shiqiao Town during his lifetime. Now that he is dead, no one will come to visit him. It's really pitiful to think about it."
Mao Yixin heard the discussions of the servants outside very clearly, but she had no choice. She still knelt in front of her father's memorial tablet and did not leave for a long time.
Late at night, Mao Yixin was walking on the street. When the people passing by saw this, they were frightened and walked away, fearing that she would vent her anger on someone.
Mao Yixin saw it in his eyes, felt pain in his heart, and walked aimlessly.
Suddenly a girl passed by him, and the scent of Mao Yixin caught her attention.
"Huh? Little sister, you smell so special, what is it?"
It was Bai Ling'er who asked the question. She was just about to buy some food for the evening when she bumped into Mao Yixin. She was outside the tavern that day by the door. Because of the heavy fog, she couldn't see Mao Yixin's face clearly.
Mao Yixin wiped his cheeks a few times, and then smiled softly with a forced smile: "Oh, this is Puroxiang, specially made by our Mao family."
When Bai Ling'er heard that it was the Mao family, she was shocked. When she looked at the woman again, she looked sad and helpless, so she asked tentatively: "Puo Xiang? What a good name."
"I don't know why the young lady is so sad? Did something happen?"
Mao Yixin saw that the girl in front of her was very cute and lively, so she told her about her father's death.
Bai Ling'er never expected that she would meet Mao Qiufeng's daughter by such a coincidence. If she were to be arrested now, the crisis would be naturally resolved. However, this might be a bit unethical. After much thought, she decided to go back and resolve the matter.
Tell Ye Shen and Su Xinghe to talk about it later.
So he smiled slightly and said: "It turns out that my sister has encountered such a sad thing. Since it is fate, I will personally come to visit your father tomorrow to express my condolences. Little sister, please don't be sad. My condolences."
After hearing these words, Mao Yixin felt a lot warmer in her heart, so she quickly said: "Where is the little sister from? She is so considerate, she shouldn't be from our Shiqiao town, right?"
Bai Ling'er replied without thinking: "Oh, I have a distant relative here who just came to Shiqiao Town in the past few days. Don't go to the street to buy something to eat."
Mao Yixin was about to say that he would go with her, but then she remembered that she had promised her husband during the day that she would give him an answer, so she said: "Okay, see you tomorrow. My father didn't have many friends when he was alive, and now he has no one after he died."
Come to express condolences, since you are willing to come, I will reward you well tomorrow."
After that, he turned around and hurried away without looking back.
Seeing her figure fading away, Bai Ling'er turned around and hurried back to the tavern.
Seeing Bai Ling'er come back empty-handed, Ye Rou asked in confusion: "Sister Ling'er, is there a curfew for the night? Why didn't you get anything back? We are almost starving to death!"
Su Xinghe also joked and complained: "Yes, I said Bai Ling'er, I just woke up and my stomach is empty. I am so hungry!"
Seeing the two of them singing and talking about Bai Ling'er's faults, Ye Shen stood up and raised his eyebrows and said: "I said what's going on with you two, now you are standing on the united front and bullying sister Ling'er!"
While they were joking with each other, Bai Ling'er said softly: "It's not that I didn't buy anything just now, but that I met someone who may be able to change our current situation."
After Ye Shen heard this, he widened his eyes and asked loudly: "Have you met an expert?"
Ye Rou also pricked up her ears.
But Su Xinghe said indifferently: "What kind of expert? When I was with Zhou Tian and my eldest brother, I had never seen such an expert before. It was just a bluff."
Bai Ling'er listened to Su Xinghe's words, folded her arms in front of her and said, "I met the daughter of the mayor of Shiqiao Town, Mao Yixin!"
After hearing this, Ye Shen hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Bai Ling'er's shoulders, shaking her from side to side, for fear that she would be injured!
Bai Ling'er impatiently took Ye Shen's hands away, frowned and said, "Mao Yixin is not what we thought at all."
Ye Shen looked at her with confusion on his face: "What? What did you say to each other? Her father was killed by us, can she forgive him?"
Ye Rou also said on the side: "Yes, sister Ling'er, don't be fooled by her."
Bai Ling'er looked at them, shook her head helplessly, and then told them the conversation she had just had with Mao Yixin on the street.
Ye Shen put his hands on his hips and said: "Ling'er, what do you mean, let us pretend to be your relatives and family members, go with you to express condolences to her father, and say some words of regret?"
Bai Ling'er shrugged and said with wide eyes: "That's natural. Mao Yixin doesn't know our faces at all. Let's simply worship and then walk out of Shiqiao Town in a big way. Is it possible for such a simple thing?
Don’t you want to try it?”
Ye Shen knew what Bai Ling'er meant, but if something happened to him, the consequences would be disastrous.
He thought carefully: "Let's do this. I'll go there with you tomorrow. If it's as you said and we can get out of the town smoothly, it won't be too late for them to go out!" This chapter has been completed!
