Chapter 633 The Empty Courtyard Next Door



In a small courtyard at the junction of the inner and outer cities.

Xiao Qingheng looked at the back of his hand, which was still bleeding, in an impatient tone. He said to the guard, "Is this wound medicine of yours really effective? It's been two days, and it's just a small cut. Not only is it not scabbed over, but it's still bleeding."

Lian Yi said helplessly: "Prince, this is the best medicine we have."

"Alright, alright, hurry up!"

Lian Yi did not dare to delay. He quickly applied the medicine to him and then changed the dressing on his arms and legs.

Then Xiao Qingheng asked, "What's going on outside?"

"The people who are pursuing us are still on the trail. I think the south part of the city has been turned upside down by them." Lian Yi said as he removed the gauze from his arm.

"Haha! A bunch of idiots, thinking that this prince is still waiting for them!" Xiao Qingheng sneered.

But he seemed to have forgotten the time when he was chased by others and ran around like a rat.

That day, they carefully hid all night. As dawn was approaching, just when they were at their wit's end, they happened to see a group of little beggars sneaking through the dog holes between several courtyards.

Lian Yi suddenly had an idea. He endured Xiao Qingheng's murderous gaze and dragged him along to follow the little beggars through the dog hole.

I don’t know how many dog ​​holes they dug that day before they finally got out of that place.

The little beggars were really good at hiding. They shuttled through the houses and alleys for more than an hour, and they didn't encounter any pursuers. They managed to get out without any danger.

After hiding in the courtyard for another two days, the officers and soldiers from the Dali Temple finally found them, but unfortunately they had already received the news and ran away.

And the new place of residence was actually right next to Yuntian and Yunxu.

These days, Xiaokang and Xiaoqi watched Tian Mingwu go out early and come back late every day to look for people. Even Zhao Yiming raised his hand wrapped in gauze to train the guards in the mansion.

They both wanted to help but had no idea how, so they thought of Yuntian, Yunxu and others.

When going to school in the morning, he asked Pingshun to inform Yunxu to come over at noon.

During the afternoon class, the two saw Yuntian as soon as they left the academy.

Several people were talking in a secluded corner behind the academy.

Xiaokang told Yuntian about the characteristics of the man in black and the prescription, and asked him to be more careful when walking outside.

Considering that the other party was a vicious person, he also warned him, "If you have any news, don't spread it out, and don't let the thieves know that you have discovered their secret. Find an opportunity to inform me as soon as possible, and be sure to pay attention to your own safety."

Yuntian nodded, and read the prescription Xiaokang gave him carefully several times, making sure he remembered the words on it before he stopped.

After separating from Xiaokang and Xiaoqi, Yuntian planned to go back home first and then help his friends close the stall.

Just as I was entering the courtyard, I heard a noise coming from the yard next door, which had been empty for a long time.

Just as he was wondering when this yard was rented out, the gate of the yard next door opened.

As soon as Lian Yiyi opened the door, he saw someone staring at his gate. He immediately became alert and almost drew the knife at his side, but he saw that the other person was just a child.

At this time, Yuntian took the initiative to greet him: "You are new here, right? I live next door to you. We will be neighbors from now on. If you need anything, you can come to me!"

It turned out to be the person next door. Lian Yi breathed a sigh of relief, said "thank you" to him, and saw him enter the yard before closing the door and going back.

However, not long after, he opened the door again, stared at Yuntian and their door for a long time, and only closed the door again after making sure that there was no sign of it opening again.

Xiao Qingheng, who was in the courtyard, saw him open the door twice and asked nervously, "What's going on? Are there pursuers?"

Lian Yi shook his head. "It was the kid next door. He probably heard us and, seeing that someone lived here, he looked at the gate a few more times out of curiosity."

They did not rent this yard. They just fled here and saw that no one had lived there for a long time. They thought that the owner would not come back in the short term, so they moved in temporarily.

But now they had to be on guard against pursuers and the possibility that the owner of the house would suddenly return and reveal his identity, so they were more cautious. Even a child would try again and again.

Yuntian, who was standing behind the gate, finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the sound of the next door closing again, and patted his chest in fear.

If beggars want to get copper coins, they rely on their mouths and their eyesight.

Although the man's action of drawing the sword was extremely subtle, he still saw it, especially after he entered the room, the man opened the door again to check.

If he guessed correctly, if he had dared to show any curiosity about the people next door, he might have encountered an accident.

Thinking of the bad guys that Master Xiaokang had just told him about, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. Could it really be such a coincidence that he ran into them?

However, the person just now did not have the characteristics that Master Xiaokang described. I just don’t know if there is anyone else in the house.

But at this time he didn't dare to inquire casually, for fear of bringing about fatal disaster. Moreover, before he was sure whether that person was the one Young Master Xiaokang was looking for, he couldn't inform him. He could only find an opportunity to find out.

Yun Xu, who was cooking in the house, heard the sound of the door opening. He came out and saw Yun Tian leaning against the door in a daze with a bad look on his face. He thought he was not feeling well, "Brother, what's wrong with you? You look so bad."

Yuntian was afraid that Yunxu's voice would be heard by the neighbors and arouse their suspicion, so he quickly covered his stomach and said, "It was fine just now, but as soon as I walked in, my stomach suddenly started to hurt."

Having said that, he walked towards the toilet with his body hunched.

Yun Xu wanted to help him, but he waved his hand and refused, "Alright, your brother just has a stomachache, he doesn't need help, and you're cooking! The food will be tasty soon."

"Then go slowly, brother." Yun Xu reminded him and went back to cook.

Yuntian squatted in the toilet for a long time, until his feet were numb. Then he walked out cursing, "There must be something wrong with the stinky tofu we ate at noon today. I told you it tasted wrong, but the old man refused to admit it. My asshole hurts from pooping."

The two courtyards were very close to each other, and Yuntian's voice was quite loud, so Xiao Qingheng and the others heard it all.

Hearing this, Xiao Qingheng frowned and cursed, "How vulgar!" Then he went into the room that his men had just cleaned.

Yuntian went into the house and lay on the couch with the excuse of stomachache, thinking of a solution.

I didn't go out again until it was almost time for my friends to pack up their stalls.

When he went out this time, he didn't even look at the door of the next yard. He picked up a piece of dogtail grass from the roadside and put it in his mouth. He whistled arrogantly and walked out of the alley.
