Chapter 201 Five People Seeking Death
For two days, after Xu Zhiyi finished her work in the morning, she waited obediently for Master Zhang to come to class in the afternoon.
In order not to stand out too much, he had to follow the other four and recite the Three Character Classic with Master Zhang sentence by sentence, and also learn and practice his own name.
After leaving Su Jilou today, I rushed home as usual. Unexpectedly, when I was out of the town gate and heading towards the fork in the road to the village, I was stopped by five big men.
Shen Wuyou: “Are you guys going to die?”
"Bah, if you don't want to die, just take out the cake recipes you sent to Su Ji Lou these days."
Hearing this, Xu Zhiyi glanced over coldly: "Who sent you here?"
"Who sent us? Either you leave the recipe or your life today."
Shen Changan looked at the few people and said bluntly: “The one who stopped the mule cart last time was also your people, right?”
"So what? I invited you so kindly last time, but you didn't know how to appreciate it. You won't be lucky this time!"
Xu Zhiyi really didn't have the patience to talk nonsense with these people, so he just said coldly: "Get out of here immediately, otherwise you will bear the consequences."
As he spoke, he looked around intentionally or unintentionally. It seemed that no one would come over for a while.
After hearing this, several people laughed out loud:
"You will have to bear the consequences at your own risk? There is no one in this town who can make us as confident as we are."
"That's right, why don't you check who our boss is? I'm afraid you'll be scared to death if I tell you."
"So if you're smart, hurry up and give us the cake recipe. If our boss is in a good mood, he might even give you ten or twenty taels of silver."
"Today, if you don't want to die here, you have to do what we say."
"Otherwise, we will...haha, especially you, a little girl..."
Upon hearing this, Xu Zhiyi quickly jumped off the mule cart and kicked them before they could react.
"ah!"
One of them was kicked and thrown out. Seeing this, four of them immediately pulled out small daggers from their waists and rushed towards Xu Zhiyi.
"Damn it, if you don't accept my toast, I'll kill you."
The other one who was kicked and lying on the ground looked at the four angry people and quickly waved and shouted, "Calm down! We haven't achieved our goal today!"
I'm going to die! The boss said that we must get the recipe first, and as for the person, we can just beat him up after getting the recipe.
The problem is that I haven’t got the recipe yet. If I kill someone accidentally, where can I get the recipe to give to my boss?
When Shen Wuyou saw that the four men were all attacking his wife, he quickly jumped off the mule cart to help.
Shen Changan suddenly remembered that there was a stool in the carriage, so he quickly went in, picked up a stool, got off the mule cart, walked behind the four people who were fighting, and smashed it directly on the head of the nearest person.
The person who was hit fell down without even having time to shout.
Xu Zhiyi grabbed the hand holding the dagger that was about to stab him, snatched the dagger from him, and stabbed him in the stomach. After pulling out the dagger, he moved on to the next one.
Shen Wuyou knocked the man to the ground, and while he was still asleep, he quickly stomped hard on his chest. The man on the ground spat out a mouthful of blood, then stared with his eyes wide open and remained motionless!
After dealing with the four people, he looked at the last person who was so scared that he was crawling on the ground.
Because Xu Zhiyi didn't use much strength when he kicked him just now, he was in so much pain that he couldn't stand up.
"Woo woo, don't kill me, I won't dare to do it again, please don't kill me"
Xu Zhiyi walked over with a dagger in his hand, looked down at him, and said coldly: "Do you think we will let you, a witness, go back after we killed someone?"
"No, no, no, I will never tell anyone when I go back. I will just say that they are missing and it has nothing to do with you."
"Hehe, maybe you five can still be brothers in the next life. The four of them are waiting for you. Let's go!" After saying this, Xu Zhiyi held him down and stabbed him directly in the heart.
Shen Wuyou looked at the five bodies on the ground and planned to bend down and move them onto the mule cart.
Xu Zhiyi looked at the blood-stained body, not wanting to dirty her mule cart, and looked towards a tree on the hillside, pointing, "Let's go over there and dig a hole!"
After saying that, he dragged two people with one hand and one person with the other and dragged them into the woods.
The remaining two, Shen Wuyou and Shen Changan each dragged one.
After Xu Zhiyi found a place to dig a hole, he looked at Shen Changan and said, "Changan, Wuyou and I will be busy, you stand on the mule cart and keep an eye on the people."
Hearing this, Shen Changan thought about how miserable it would be if he was caught by someone, so he nodded and walked towards the intersection.
After Shen Changan left, Xu Zhiyi took out two hoes from the space. These were the ones she had put in the space last time to dig the ground. The two of them took the hoes and started digging the hole.
Fortunately, I now have a lot of physical strength, so digging the hole is not difficult at all. It only takes me fifteen minutes!
After dealing with the people, Xu Zhiyi looked at the obvious new soil, thought about it, and decided to move the grass in the space out to give it a try.
As a result, the new soil was instantly covered with grass, and it was completely impossible to tell that the soil had just been dug.
After coming out to the original position, I looked at the blood on the ground and covered it with some soil. Unless you look carefully, you won't find anything.
After returning home, the three of them were no different from usual, and no one noticed anything wrong. After all, they had seen a lot of life and death on the road to escape famine, and had even killed someone directly!
Master Zhang came over this afternoon and after checking that all five people could write their own names, he began to teach everyone to recognize other characters.
Master Zhang looked at the five pieces of paper handed in, which were full of names. Except for Xu Zhiyi's, which was still readable, the other four's were simply unbearable to look at. They were almost crooked!
But I've only learned it for two days, and being able to recognize and write my own name is... pretty good!
In the following five days, Xu Zhiyi only went to two shops to check the progress of the renovation after delivering goods to Su Ji Lou every day, and then came back. The other shop was also being renovated! By then, they could open three or four days later.
And no one has returned to Yunlai Restaurant since the five people were sent out that day, and they have been looking for them these past few days. What is going on?
In fact, I also suspected Xu Zhiyi and his wife and two of them, but after secretly watching them for a few days, I didn’t find anything wrong. It seemed that these three people disappeared before the five people came to look for them?
At dinner, Su said happily: "Zhiyi, the room has been built now, we can move in two days! When you go to town tomorrow, you can go to the carpenter's shop and tell him to deliver the bed and furniture the day after tomorrow."
Xu Zhiyi was also very happy because she could finally own her own house!
"Okay, I'll let you know tomorrow."
Su: "Hey, and we're going to have a banquet the day after we move into the house, and we're planning to invite the villagers to come and have some fun."
Xu Zhiyi nodded and said, "Just discuss it."
Su glanced at Shen Changan and Shen Wuyou, cleared her throat and said, "There is one more important thing. Mother has chosen a date for you. It is suitable for you to get married on the sixth day after the New Year. The three of you will hold the wedding ceremony on that day."
"Mom has thought about it and decided to hold a banquet that day! We can't take this matter for granted for the rest of your lives!"
When Shen Changan Shen Wuyou heard this, his heart suddenly started pounding, not knowing whether it was because of nervousness or something else!
