Chapter 276 When she leaves, she never lingers
The noise was so loud that the people in the surrounding houses lit up their lights one after another and hid behind the courtyard walls, listening to the commotion in fear.
It took nearly an hour for the Changjing government officials to arrive.
By then, the fight in the posthouse was nearing its end, with dead and wounded scattered across the ground.
Even if those who were still alive were stopped, they still held their swords and stared at the other party with their red eyes, like mad dogs, ready to rush out and bite the other party at any time.
Among the envoys from ten countries, three died, two were seriously injured, four were slightly injured, and only one was intact.
The matter has become too serious.
The prefect of Changjing had no choice but to get out of bed and go to deal with the important matter with a pale face.
After finding out the cause of the incident, the matter must be reported to the emperor, who will then make the decision.
At that time, the young emperor was serving his senior sister in the East Citizens' Courtyard, pouring her water, serving her tea and snacks.
The two of them had just returned from the posthouse.
The lights were on in the main room, and Bai Yu was sitting beside the Eight Immortals table against the wall, tapping his jade fan.
The three boys from the Su family were sleepy and sat on the other side, rubbing their eyes and yawning.
Tianbao finished the snack in his hand, sucked off the crumbs on his fingertips, and waved his little hand, and a pile of things appeared on the table out of thin air.
Su Wu's yawn stopped immediately, his eyes sparkling, "Tianbao, did you just steal it?"
The girl said seriously, "I'm going to make them suffer."
Several people reached into the pile of things and found mostly personal badges, tokens, customs passes, money bags, etc.
"Hey, what is this?" Bai Yu, with his sharp eyes, took out the object that was pressed by a black token and examined it carefully under the light. "This kind of iron sheet is very rare."
It is made of iron, shaped like a whistle, the size of a finger and hollow, and has a silver-black luster under the light.
Tian Bao took the thing and looked at it carefully, frowning, "This thing... is like iron that is not from a human body."
The silver-black color is cold iron, and the texture feels like a chest or abdomen that is not human.
Among those envoys, some have direct or indirect connections with non-humans.
Thinking of this, Tianbao frowned even more tightly.
She was careless and took all the things at once. Now it is difficult to find out which sheep the whistle came from.
Bai Yu looked at the iron whistle, thoughtfully, "Same materials, could it be that this person made it? Or...how can he use a key that is not human?"
The three boys' eyes lit up when they heard this.
Wei Li was confused. The feeling of being out of tune with his companions made him feel frustrated and lost again.
"What is not human?" he asked, pursing his lips.
Su An explained, "Tian Bao caught a dead creature on Kongliu Island. It looks like a human, but its body is made of iron. Its kung fu is amazing. I think it's on par with Uncle Broken Blade. If it weren't for the dead creature and Tian Bao being able to catch it, we might not be able to come back safe and sound."
Su Wen nodded seriously, "You don't know, it was really dangerous at that time. Tianbao slashed with the Moon Drinking Knife, and there was a loud noise. But it wasn't a person, but he was safe and sound! It was terrifying!"
Wei Li, "..." So it's not a human, it's the name Tianbao gave to the dead thing, just like Grandpa Du named the Eighth King "Ben Wangba".
I understand.
"You stay in the main room. I'll let the bad guy out and try this whistle." Tianbao gave instructions, stood up and walked out of the main room, and stood in the small courtyard.
It's not that he doesn't have a brain and doesn't listen to others. He wants to continue attacking her even after being locked up in the space. This means that once the master gives an order, he will carry it out to the end unless the master stops.
In this case, if we release him, there will inevitably be another fight.
Tianbao put the whistle to his lips and looked down.
A slender figure immediately flashed in the open space ahead, his clothes still stained with mud, and his eyes showed a slight confusion.
The next moment, his sight focused on the girl in front of him, and someone immediately pounced on her.
Tianbao blew the whistle, "Sh ...
A sharp and piercing sound made the non-human pause, and then it pounced forward quickly again.
"Shh-"
Dayton.
"Shh-"
Dayton.
The distance between the two of them was slowly closing, as if there was a lag.
Tian Bao's face darkened. She waved her hand to put away the sword that was about to be chopped at her, turned around and glared at the fan-wielding boy at the main hall door who was laughing so hard that his whole body was shaking. "It's useless!"
This accusation made Bai Yu laugh so hard that his stomach almost curled up.
Wei Li didn't dare to laugh. He put his fist to his lips and coughed violently.
Su An, Su Wen, and Su Wu simply lay on the ground, kicking and rolling around, "Hahahaha!"
"Baoer, poof! Could it be, haha, because you, you can't, blow the whistle, hahaha!" Bai Yu was out of strength and squatted down with his belly in his hands.
Tianbao, “…”
Isn't a whistle just something you blow with your mouth?
She has no problem blowing the whistle.
It's that thing I don't understand!
He went back to his room angrily to sleep. Tianbao lay down on the bed and immediately closed his eyes and sank into space, planting the non-human thing into the soil thirty more times.
The three boys from the Su family were already sleepy, and Tianbao's whistle perked them up. Then they laughed listlessly and went back to their rooms to rest.
There was a candlelight in the main room, and two people were sitting against the wall across the table.
"Can you handle the trouble there?" Bai Yu leaned back in his chair with his head slightly tilted back, counting things on his knees with his jade fan.
When he stopped smiling and no longer tried to hold his breath, he was completely different from the way he appeared in front of Tianbao.
Undisciplined, unruly, wanton, and dangerous.
Wei Li glanced at him and said, "It's not a big deal. I will write to the monarchs of each country and tell them the truth about what happened at the post station. Those who survived can serve as witnesses for each other, and the people of Changjing are also witnesses. Even if the other countries don't want to admit it, they must have a legitimate reason to embarrass Dai Yue."
"In that case, it's late at night. Isn't it time for you to return to the palace, Your Majesty?"
"When will you return?"
"Tsk." Bai Yu raised an eyebrow. "You have just ascended the throne, and you can't leave Changjing. Stop imagining nonsense, dear."
Wei Li smiled, "I am your senior brother, junior disciple."
Tell him "be good"?
Bai Yu readily followed suit, "Brother, be good."
"..." The young emperor laughed out of anger.
It was late at night and he should go back.
Back to that cold place.
He stood up and walked out slowly.
"Wei Li, if you have any problems, you can always come to me. You know the secrets of Wangque Tower." The young man behind him spoke with a hint of concern.
A smile appeared on Wei Li's lips. He turned around and punched his chest with his fist.
Between partners and brothers, the heart is the same.
The room is empty after people leave.
Bai Yu turned the jade fan, extinguished the candle on the table, and a faint laugh drifted into the darkness.
Grass.
I really hope I never grow up.
In this way, the desire for exclusivity will not be so strong.
The next day, Wei Li made a decision on what happened at the post house at the morning court and spent two days seeing off the envoys one by one.
When I rushed to the courtyard in East Lane, the yard was empty.
A letter was left for him on the table in the main room.
——I’m leaving. See you later.
With just six words, you can tell who wrote it without even thinking.
Only Tianbao speaks so directly and concisely.
It seems that no matter who she is with or what she goes through together, it cannot affect her at all.
When she leaves, she never lingers.
She only makes exceptions for her closest people.
