Chapter 388 Dolls(1/2)

Zhan Zhao and Wu Yihuai caught a strange point when it came to Wang Lei's words. Zhan Zhao noticed that Wang Lei said that he knew "what caught Qiu Yi", and what he was talking about here is "what" rather than "who"...

Wu Yifu frowned, "Isn't it the one who captured Qiu Yi?"

Wang Lei hesitated for a moment and nodded seriously.

...

After Bai Yutang knocked on the door, he heard footsteps. Then the door creaked and opened. A very decent butler appeared behind the door. He looked up and down at Bai Yutang and Tianzun at the door, and looked up at the corners of his eyes.

Bai Yutang was secretly funny. It was indeed a wealthy family. The servants looked like they were above the top... The fifth master was finally a little bit higher by Zhan Zhao, and his favorability towards officials was reduced again.

"Look for Wu Cai." Bai Yutang said directly.

Although the butler felt a bit powerful, Bai Yutang had an extraordinary appearance and was not a person to mess with at first glance, so he became a little polite and asked, "What's the matter with my young master?"

Bai Yutang said, "Tell him something."

The butler yelled twice, "My young master is not here."

Bai Yutang nodded, took out the token and showed it to him, and said, "Then let's find your master."

When the butler saw the token from Kaifeng Mansion, he was slightly stunned and asked, "Are you... people from Kaifeng Mansion?"

The Heavenly Lord stood curiously behind Bai Yutang and looked around.

Bai Yutang looked at the butler for a moment and frowned, "Anyway, whether it is your young master or your master, I want to see one."

The butler hesitated for a moment and said, "Uh, okay, come in and talk about it."

Bai Yutang and Tianzun followed the housekeeper into the house. When they looked around, they found that the yard was very elegant, but not as magnificent as the family of corrupt officials. It was obvious that they were from the scholarly family.

The butler's face had changed, and his smile seemed to be close to Bai Yutang and Tianzun, "What... two young masters, I'll take you to see my young master, but don't you tell me? My master is so strict. The young master just got married two days ago. If something happens, it would be bad."

Bai Yutang nodded, a little puzzled, "Why are your young master going to go from house to house?"

"Oh... Isn't it just a trivial matter of ordering sesame and mung beans?" The housekeeper shook his head helplessly, "It's not easy for the young master, the master has too high expectations for him."

Bai Yutang didn't say anything more. It's not uncommon for such families. The higher the expectations, the greater the disappointment.

Sometimes this is the case. For a child like Baoyan, Mr. Bao is determined not to make a name for himself, but only hopes that he will behave well. Mrs. Bao only wants him to be happy and happy, but he becomes a talented man. Some people are determined to cultivate a talented man, but their children are just mediocre.

The playboys like Pang Yu, who turned around later, became better. Many of them were already good and good, but they became bad for some reason... This is more or less related to their parents. Expecting such things is sometimes too heavy and becomes a burden. If people force them too tightly, they are easy to rebound. Being considerate with each other is a reasonable way to get along with each other.

The housekeeper took the two of them into a yard and saw a young scholar sitting in the yard reading a book. He looked up and saw someone coming, frowned slightly - he seemed unhappy to be disturbed.

But when he saw clearly the two people behind the housekeeper, he was also a little surprised.

When Bai Yutang and Tianzun suddenly appeared in front of people, they could not react at once using the common sayings of Xiao Sizi, and thought that the gods had descended to earth.

Bai Yutang was also observing Wu Cai. The scholar looked pretty good, with a straight face and a little arrogant between his eyebrows...

Lord Bao, Gongsun, Bao Yan, and Wu Yifu are all rare nerds in the world. To be precise, they are great talents. According to Bai Yutang's observation, talented people usually have some common things. The arrogance of scholars is the same as the beauty of a beauty of a beauty. They are not in the skin. The more proud the corners of their eyes and eyebrows look at the top of their eyebrows, the more ordinary they are. Instead, they are a little stupid or strange, and usually have some supernatural powers.

Wu Cai looked at the two of them and looked at the butler in confusion.

The butler leaned over and whispered a few words in his ear.

Wu Cai frowned slightly, nodded and signaled him to go to the tea. Then he competed with Bai Yutang and Tianzun across the table and signaled that the two of them should sit.

Bai Yutang sat down, but Tianzun ran to the side.

Wu Cai and Bai Yutang both looked over with some confusion, and saw that the Heavenly Lord seemed to be attracted by a blooming wintersweet tree beside him. He looked at the tree with his hands behind his back, then leaned over and smelled it.

Wu Cai was slightly distracted. The way the Heavenly Lord looked down and smelled the plum blossoms was so beautiful that it was a little unreal.

"Ahem."

Bai Yutang coughed lightly, Wu Cai came back to his senses and looked at Bai Yutang, "Uh... are you officials?"

Bai Yutang didn't answer. He had never talked much anyway, so he was really annoyed to explain it back and forth, so he said straightforwardly, "I want to ask Qiu Yi about his disappearance."

Wu Cai was slightly stunned. Tianzun turned around and saw his expression and smiled faintly - Oh, this kid seemed to know something.

Bai Yutang waved to the Heavenly Lord and signaled him to come and sit down.

The Heavenly Lord ran over and sat down next to Baiyutang.

At this time, the housekeeper brought the tea. Tianzun held the cup and smelled it, raised his eyebrows, "Well! Wushan Yunxia...good tea."

Wu Cai seemed a little hesitant and asked, "What do you want to know?"

Bai Yutang could also see that he was hiding something, and looked at the small decorations on the table, and suddenly had an idea, so he asked, "Is it you who stole the book that day?"

When Bai Yutang said that, Wu Cai was stunned, and the butler who was pouring tea on the side did not hold the lid of the teapot and broke with a clang.

The housekeeper quickly tidied up and said, "My husband... don't talk nonsense, why can our young master steal books..."

Bai Yutang and Tianzun knew it - so that's it.

Wu Cai was also helpless and asked the housekeeper to step down first. He was calm and nodded to Bai Yutang and Tianzun, saying, "That's right, I am the one who steals the book."

"Why are you accusing Qiu Yi?" Bai Yutang was happy to see that there was progress.

Wu Cai frowned and shook his head, "It's not that I framed him, but... he disappeared, and others said that he stole the book... I didn't explain it anymore."

While tasting tea, Tianzun asked, "You are so rich, why are you stealing?"

Bai Yutang looked at Tianzun, and that's what it means - it's more important to ask serious things.

The Heavenly Lord blinked at him, and the obvious meaning was - what do you want to express? I can't understand it. I'm not your cat.

Bai Yutang is powerless.

Wu Cai's face turned slightly red and she sighed, "I don't know, I will steal things without realizing it. If I don't steal, I feel uncomfortable."

The Heavenly Lord thought for a while and said, "Do you think that's exciting?"

Wu Cai was stunned.

Tianzun continued to drink tea, "Oh, I have an old friend, he is just a thief."

While saying that, he chatted with Bai Yutang, "Does Qian Guazi know?"

Bai Yutang Wangtian, Qian Guazi is an alias, its real name is Qian Huai. He is a famous thief. Because he can silently steal the only golden melon seed from a cart of real melon seeds, people in the martial arts world are called Qian Guazi. Although he is considered a descendant of the Heavenly Lord, if he is still alive, he will have to be in his hundred years old.

"My friend was like you when he was a child. The adults in his family were very strict. He pretended to be perfect in front of others and behind him." Tianzun shook his head, "I don't know why, but I became a thief. In the end, the more I stole, I became more and more powerful, until I became the gentleman of Liang and later became the number one thief in the world, so..."

Tianzun put down the teacup and nodded to Wu Cai, "You still have a future!"

Bai Yutang holds his forehead.

Wu Cai was so funny that he couldn't help but laugh. Is this irony?

Bai Yutang put an orange in front of Tianzun, which means - eat, shut up!

Tianzun ate oranges with his mouth flattened, thinking that it would be better for the old ghost of Yin Hou, and the little bastard Yutang didn't even let him say anything.

"Tell me about Qiuyi." Bai Yutang asked, "Do you know where he went?"

"He... was captured." Wu Cai seemed a little panicked, and his face changed, "You can't find him, he won't come back..."

Bai Yutang looked at him, "Do you know that Lelin County will throw a scholar every year during the Chinese New Year?"

Wu Cai was shocked, and seemed very scared, "This really has nothing to do with me..."

"You tell me, I will judge if it's relevant." Bai Yutang urged him, "Hurry up."

Wu Cai looked at Bai Yutang.

Tianzun added fuel to the fire, "You'd better say that he has a bad temper."

Bai Yutang glanced at Tianzun, and Tianzun peeled oranges.

Wu Cai sighed, "You don't understand, it's not the one who captured those scholars."

Bai Yutang was stunned.

The Heavenly Lord was chewing oranges - Oh, it was wonderful!

...

"It's not the one who captured Qiuyi, what is that?" Zhan Zhao was confused when he heard Wang Lei's words and asked in confusion.

"It's a doll!" Wang Lei said.

Wu Yifu twitched the corner of his mouth. Seeing Zhan Zhao, he raised his eyebrows at him - Miao Zai, there seemed to be something wrong with this brain!

Zhan Zhao also found it puzzled, "Why do you want to catch a scholar?"

"This is a local legend, and our fathers all know it." Wang Lei told Zhan Zhao and Wu Yihuo a story that happened a long time ago.

Many years ago, there was a scholar in Lelin County who was proficient in carpentry and very intelligent. After marrying his wife, he gave birth to a son, and the family of three lived a wealthy life. However, when his son was six years old, a sudden fire broke out and his son died in the sea of ​​fire.

The scholar was heartbroken and from then on, he was depressed and missed his son all day long with tears in his eyes.

One day, when the scholar went out, he saw a burnt doll thrown by the side of the road. Perhaps some craftsman was walking in the house, and a puppet was half burned, so he threw it on the side of the road.

The scholar picked up the puppet and for some reason thought of his son, so he took the puppet home.

The scholar carefully repaired the puppet, put on his clothes, and hugged it all day long. After that, the scholar often talked to the puppet, telling his longing for his son... Until one night, the puppet suddenly spoke.

Zhan Zhao and Wu Yifu were shocked when they heard this.

Thinking of Bai Yutang's previous comment on the doll, Zhan Zhao now had a few little alpacas rushing in his chest - in the middle of the night, the doll spoke?!
To be continued...
