"Are you eavesdropping?" I asked Yi Ba.
“Eavesdropping?” Yi Ba chuckled and said, “Do I need to eavesdrop on what happened between you and your sister-in-law? Even if I wanted to, I would do it openly. Listen openly!"
"The identity of the gentleman who performed Bai Delu's acupuncture points has been exposed. Should we go and meet Bai Yonggui?" I asked Yi Ba.
"Let's go at night. We won't see anything interesting during the day." Yi Ba said.
Bai Yonggui does not live in the county, but in Gouzi Village.
Gouzi Village is only a few kilometers away from Fengyang County, which is not too far. However, as soon as Yi Bay and I arrived, we felt that this village was particularly desolate. As soon as I walked into the village, I felt a chill.
The houses here are all made of strips of stone, and the appearance of the houses is a bit weird. From a distance, they look like neatly arranged cemeteries.
“Look at these houses, aren’t they a bit too weird?” I asked Yi Ba.
“I didn’t expect that there would be a village like this in Fengyang County.”
Yi Ba glanced at Gouzi Village and said: “The layout of this village makes good use of the terrain. , As for the buildings here, every one is deliberately designed. Even the life and death of the people living in them are all artificially arranged.”
"Is it Bai Yonggui who arranged all this?" I asked.
"I haven't seen him in person yet, so it's hard to say." Yi Ba frowned and said, "If Bai Yonggui really did all this, his ability should not be underestimated! At least the two of us You can't afford to offend him."
Yi Ba walked to a building. In front of the stone house, he pointed to the eaves behind the house and said: "The water comes out of Gengyou Square and breaks through the Shanglu position. It is named Chonglu Xiaohuangquan. The owner died of poverty and became a widow."
"What does it mean?" Huh?" I didn't understand what Yi Ba Nian was talking about, so I asked him.
"It means there is a little widow living in this house." Yi Ba sighed and said, "Let's go in and see the miserable person! The fact that she died as a man is not God's will, it's Man-made! ”
I was going to knock on the door, but I saw that the door was ajar and not tightly closed, so I tried to push it.
"Creak..."
The door opened.
I and Yi Ba walked in cautiously.
"Is anyone there?"
After all, we are not here to be thieves, so it would be better to shout. Otherwise, the little widow would misunderstand us and mistake us for thieves. Her shouting would attract the people around us, which would not be good.
“Who are you looking for?”
There was a woman who looked less than thirty, with a pretty face, but her hands had become thick calluses. She dressed as a village girl came from the back room. Walked out.
“Where’s your man?” Yi Badu realized that she was a young widow, and asked her man, “Isn’t this intentional to make the young widow sad?”
"Dead." The woman replied numbly.
"What is your name?" I changed the subject.
"My name is Zheng Xiaoyu." The woman replied.
"When did your man die?" Yi Ba asked.
"It's been two years." When Zheng Xiaoyu said this, her expression was very indifferent, as if her man's death had nothing to do with her.
"How did you die?" Yi Ba continued to ask.
"Died of illness." Before giving this answer, Zheng Xiaoyu's eyes evaded. It can be seen from this detail that she is lying.
"The man has been dead for two years, and you are still so young. Why don't you remarry?" Yi Ba asked this question, and I almost wanted to slap him.
"Whoever you marry will die. If your life is cheap, don't harm others." Zheng Xiaoyu said.
"So, do you know the real cause of your man's death?" Yi Ba paused and said, "Since you know the reason, why are you still living here instead of moving out and going somewhere else? Live well."
"This is fate, I accept it." Zheng Xiaoyu looked at me and Yi Ba with numb eyes and said, "It's best to stay away from Gouzi Village. .”
"Fate is given by God, not decided by humans. You cannot let others influence your own destiny." Yi Ba sighed and said, "Think about it for yourself! We will come again."
Yi Ba and I left Zheng Xiaoyu’s house.
"Shall we go find Bai Yonggui now?" I asked Yi Ba.
“Don’t alert the enemy, let’s go back first!” Yi Badao said.
“Help! Help!”
Someone was calling for help, a woman's voice. It is not a man's fault to refuse to save someone. Yi Ba and I immediately ran in the direction of the sound.
The cry for help came from the stone house in front, and the light was on in that house. What came out from inside was only the woman's cry for help, and no other sounds.
Yi Ba kicked the door open. In the corner, there was a huddled woman. She was using a hemp rope to strangle her neck. While strangling, she still shouted for help.
She was about to strangle herself to death and yet she still called for help. This woman’s behavior was a bit too weird!
“Possessed by a ghost.”
Yi Ba said this, then gestured with his sword, and with lightning speed, he stabbed the woman in the chest. When he poked her like this, the woman's body twitched and then fell to the ground.
Only then did I see clearly that I knew that woman. She was Tao Jiajia, Bai Yonggui’s daughter-in-law.
"Is Tao Jiajia okay?" I asked Yi Ba.
"It shouldn't be a big deal." Yi Badao said.
"Why did you poke someone in the chest just now? Did you want to take advantage of it?" I made a joke about Yi Ba.
"I clicked on the Lingxu point. Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand." Yi Ba gave me a blank look.
There were rapid footsteps coming from behind. I turned my head and saw that it was Bai Yu.
"What's wrong with my wife?" Bai Yu looked worried and held Tao Jiajia in his arms.
"Maybe I was possessed by evil spirits, but I'm fine now." Yi Badao said.
"Thank you, Host Yi!" Bai Yu looks quite polite like this!
Tao Jiajia was carried home by Bai Yu. I looked at Yi Ba in confusion and asked, "Which song is this from?"
"We'll talk about it when we get back." Yi Ba said.
Yi Ba and I left Gouzi Village and returned to Anqingguan.
"What's going on with Tao Jiajia?" I asked Yi Ba.
"Bai Yonggui must have known that we went to Gouzi Village, so he deliberately used Tao Jiajia to test me. Tao Jiajia's situation was very urgent just now. When I rescued her, I didn't hold back much, so I gave it away. "Yi Badao.
"You exposed your bottom with just one sword finger?" I asked.
“You can tell by seeing the smallest details.” Yi Ba sighed and said, “With Bai Yonggui’s ability, you only need to see my hand to know what I am capable of.”
“Tao Jiajia did it on purpose. Did he also know about our going to Zheng Xiaoyu's house as arranged?" I asked.
"I must know."
Yi Ba frowned and said with some confusion: "The situation that Tao Jiajia just encountered should have been carefully prepared, and the timing was very accurate. If If you arrive one minute early, I will have another way to deal with it; if you arrive one minute late, Tao Jiajia's life will be in danger. Can Bai Yonggui be able to set the time accurately? "
< br>
"Could it be a coincidence?" I asked.
"Impossible." Yi Ba shook his head firmly and said, "Tao Jiajia has to prepare at least four or five hours in advance. Four or five hours ago, we didn't fight at all. Make up your mind to come to Gouzi Village."
"Could it be that Bai Yonggui can predict the future?" I looked at Yi Ba in surprise and said, "If he can predict the future, he is far better than me! He said that when it comes to fortune telling, we are no match for him.”
“Not only in fortune telling, but also in Feng Shui, I can’t beat him.”
Yi Ba took the words and said: "Bai Yonggui didn't do anything to us. His appearance tonight is to warn us that we are far from his opponents and advise us not to rush into the flames." < br>
"What are your thoughts now?" I asked Yi Ba. "You can't overestimate your own capabilities. Let's not act too hastily on this matter of the Bai family. Let's keep an eye on it!" Yi Ba sighed and said, "If Bai Yonggui is really that powerful, without strong support, it would be impossible for us to fight. , and may even cost you your life. Those who know the current affairs are heroes, and they will give in when they should."
