Chapter 192 The secret is only told to Xinbao

Xinbao suddenly woke up: "Wife! Wife!!"

Xinbao occupied Yan Shenjue's bed. He moved a bamboo couch over and put it in front of the bed to sleep. He was startled by her and jumped directly onto the bed without even having time to put on his shoes: "What's wrong, Xinbao, did you have a nightmare?"

Xinbao sat up and pinched himself hard.

She cried out in pain, then said with tears in her eyes, "It's not a dream, it's not a dream. Am I awake? Is Xinbao really awake?"

"Yes," Yan Shenjue said, "He is really awake."

He suddenly thought: "Are you dreaming..."

"That's right!" Xinbao said anxiously, "Xinbao dreamed of a big rock, my wife, come and write!"

Yan Shenjue was also a little anxious. He quickly put on his shoes, lit a candle and placed it in front of the bed, then took out a pen and paper. Xinbao wrote on the paper stroke by stroke. Yan Shenjue murmured, "The falling rocks will instantly destroy Yan Xuan..."

He paused.

Xinbao didn't pay any attention and was still trying hard to imitate.

Until the sentence was finished, Xinbao was confused: "Who is Yan Xuan? Why would Xinbao dream about someone he doesn't know?"

Yan Shenjue felt a little helpless and patted her head gently: "It's me, it's my name..."

He paused and said, "My name is Yan Xuan, and my courtesy name is Shen Jue. This is my secret, and I will only tell it to Xin Bao. Xin Bao is not allowed to tell anyone else."

Xinbao didn't realize that this Yan was not that Yan, and nodded: "Oh, okay, Xinbao will definitely not tell anyone!"

She pointed at the words on the paper: "But...But what should I do?"

Yan Shenjue murmured again and again: "Rocks and rocks are pouring down in an instant... Is this a landslide?"

“Yes, yes!” Xinbao nodded vigorously: “It must be! It must be!! The mountain collapsed, there was a landslide!”

Yan Shenjue said: "We agreed to go back to Yutang Village tomorrow, so we won't go back."

Xinbao nodded: "No, I won't go back. Honey, don't go out tomorrow."

"Okay, I won't go out." Yan Shenjue coaxed her: "Okay, okay, it's okay, go to sleep."

Xinbao counted the words on the paper anxiously, and made sure that he had drawn them all. Only then did he feel relieved and lay down.

Yan Shenjue had just moved the candle away when Xinbao screamed again.

Yan Shenjue asked: "What's wrong?"

Xinbao pouted and shook his head.

She was just worried that she was waking up from a dream again and not really awake, so she pinched herself again to confirm.

With tears in her eyes, she fell asleep soon.

Yan Shenjue couldn't sleep, so he sat cross-legged on the bamboo couch, pondering slightly.

Although he was unlucky again, he was still in a good mood. He had the feeling of "no matter how hard the weather is, I have good luck on my side."

But that's exactly why it's so strange. If even he couldn't avoid the landslide, it must have been very serious. But he was returning to the village with Xinbao. Xinbao was blessed, and being with her, would he also be buried?

Could it be that Xinbao will be affected by his bad luck?

He was a little uneasy.

When the day came, the rain finally stopped. Yan Shenjue saw that Fourth Brother Tang had woken up, so he called him, "Look after Xinbao. I'm going to go out for a while."

Fourth Brother Tang responded, and Yan Shen Jue flew out of the city.

He was very careful and always walked on the top. Longmen County is a mountain city with mountains everywhere. There are also mountains on the way back to the village from the city.

But since it can bury people, if it cannot be avoided, it must be a relatively steep place. Yan Shenjue walked halfway and suddenly stopped.

On a mountain not far away, there is a small wild pomegranate tree, which is now full of fruits.

But this mountain is still a short distance away from the road.

If he drove a carriage or rode a horse with Xinbao back home, it is possible that when he saw the pomegranate tree, he would take the initiative to pick pomegranates for Xinbao, or Xinbao might want to eat some.

Therefore, if he came over to pick the fruits and encountered a landslide, he might have been buried underneath.

In other words, Xinbao will not be buried, but he will be buried.

But now he won't.

Thinking about it this way, I do feel a little bit happy.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Yan Shenjue took a look from a distance and didn't think of stepping over. After all, Xiao Fuxing was not with him at the moment, and if he stepped on it and sank, he might be buried.

Fortunately, this mountain is very high and far away from the village. People who are traveling below without any skills cannot reach the fruits at all. However, it is possible to pick them from the top. Just go back and ask someone to watch over them.

He turned around and went back.

Maybe it was because she woke up this time at night, so when Xinbao usually woke up, she was not awake yet.

Huo Yuntao took a bag of clothes and came in, smiling and said, "Every autumn rain brings a chill. Everyone, do you need to put on more clothes?"

He opened it and smiled, "I brought some for you, see if it works?? I took two of Tang Si's and two of Xin Bao's. I guess you have plenty of Yan Shao's, so I didn't take any."

Tang Si Ge was a little surprised: "And mine? I have clothes to wear."

"It's okay, it's free," Huo Yuntao said with a smile, "It's the Shen family's ready-made clothing shop, and now it's ours. We don't know how to sell clothes, so we thought about selling them again, so we divided the clothes. You are just an average size, and they are ready-made. I asked them to slightly modify Xinbao's clothes so that you can wear them as is."

As he spoke, he complained: "Mr. Shen, you see, is really a person that is hard to describe. He started from scratch and worked his way up to where he is today. What kind of people has he not seen? What kind of backs has he not bent? He is a man who knows how to deal with things. For example, now, the headmaster said ten days, but he obviously didn't have enough money, so he directly used his shop as collateral. It's only been two days and he came over without any delay or bargaining. Tell me, how capable is he? Wouldn't it have been better if he had done this earlier? Why did he have to be so servile!"

Fourth Brother Tang echoed, "Because Uncle Shen is angry."

"Right!" Huo Yuntao raised his finger at him, "You're right, it's because our leader got really angry! He knows our leader's temper. Once he gets angry, no one can say anything. He can't pay less. So he quickly delivered the things. The leader might even feel a little guilty. If he drags it on, the brotherhood will be wasted!"

Fourth Brother Tang nodded.

Huo Yuntao patted him on the back and said, "Go ahead and give it a try. If it doesn't work, try again."

Fourth Brother Tang knew they wanted to talk, so he responded and went in with the clothes.

Huo Yuntao said to Yan Shenjue, “Let me tell you, Chen Chengduo has been causing trouble every day. The day before yesterday, he sent someone to the Bounty House to hire a killer, and asked me to intercept him. Then he asked the county magistrate to find an excuse to send someone to arrest Tang Qingshan, so I sent someone to scare him. I got annoyed, so I brought all their silver. As a result, that idiot got angry and slammed the table and smashed the stool... He didn’t even think about the fact that if others can take your silver quietly, how difficult would it be to cut off your head? Zhu Yinzhong was scared, and his face turned pale with fear..."

He paused, "I shouldn't say this to a child like you. Well... I also asked people to check in the capital, and it turned out that Chen Chengduo was indeed in bad shape, but not completely. He was still okay with the medicine... But that's why he got so bad. He kept asking people to buy people back home, as if to silence them or something. In total, he killed more than ten girls. Although the lives of prostitutes are cheap, it's not like he wasted their lives like this. I really want to kill him, but I'm afraid that it will implicate the Tang family. It makes me so angry!"

Yan Shenjue suddenly had an idea.

He asked, "Did you release anyone around him?"

"Yes," Huo Yuntao said, "We have raw, cooked, freshly prepared and expensive ones."

Yan Shenjue said, "There is a village called Niujiao Village, about two miles outside the north city gate. There is a pomegranate tree over there. Tell your people to lead him under the pomegranate tree around 9:00 p.m."

Huo Yuntao was confused when he heard this: "What's going on? Why are you going there? Are you going to perform a ritual?"
