Their family has prepared almost everything they need, including a lot of mugwort and mint, all of which have been dried and put away.
The food was stored in the cellar, and they had already made too much dried meat for two wild boars, which was too eye-catching.
Fortunately, their family lives at the foot of the mountain, which makes everything very convenient. If they still lived in the old house, they would be restricted in everything they do.
That night, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, and only the occasional barking of dogs could be heard from Sanli Village.
As soon as Chen Li came out of the space, she found a man in black standing on the roof of her east wing.
Chen Li sat up. Who is this person?
Chen Li walked barefoot and quietly to the door. At this moment, a faint candlelight lit up in the west wing.
The man came down from the roof in just a few steps and entered the west wing, Wei Zian's house.
Chen Li touched her chin. The man's light posture must be the result of light work.
Someday, I will get a book on Qinggong to learn!
This way you can experience the feeling of flying over the eaves and walking on the walls!
When the man entered Wei Zian's room, Chen Li had already withdrawn her mental strength and did not follow him in.
At this moment, she was listening attentively. Occasionally, two whispers were heard from the west wing. It seemed that it was someone Wei Zian knew.
Yes, it has been more than 20 days since she last delivered the letter. If Wei Zian’s people don’t come again, she will be anxious.
Chen Li walked back to bed and continued to sleep, but she didn't fall asleep. She was always paying attention to the movements outside.
"Master, please forgive me for being late."
Pei Yu looked at his subordinates in front of him, his eyes dark and unclear. "Tianqing, can you find out who betrayed the master?"
Tianqing kept her eyelashes erect and didn't dare to look at Pei Yu who was sitting on the bed.
"Master, on the day you were in trouble, all the secret guards around you were transferred away by Yunfu. When I finished my work and rushed back, you had disappeared."
"Yunfu?"
Yunfu is one of the four secret guards around him. He is good at hiding and usually goes on missions.
Is it such a coincidence?
When he transferred the other three people to investigate the matter, Yunfu took action against him?
Could it be that they spread the rumor in order to transfer the secret guards around him so that they could attack him?
"Have you found out why Yunfu rebelled?"
The secret guards around him were all carefully selected. They were orphans since childhood. In the secret guard camp, there was competition among all the people and the one with the bigger fist was the boss. Every step to climb up was very difficult.
So those who can come to me have gone through rounds of tests.
Yunfu became one of the four secret guards around him. Needless to say, the hard work he put in was great. So, what could have made such a person betray his master?
As a secret guard, Yunfu knew very well the consequences of betraying his master, but he still betrayed him.
"I am incompetent. Yunfu doesn't show any flaws on a normal day. However, in the past two months, I have been staying with him and have noticed that he is often distracted."
"The Yunfu incident needs to be investigated as soon as possible." Pei Yu tapped his fingers on the bed. "He has taken the medicine for the seventh month and a half. Tell people to keep an eye on those families and see if anyone has contact with anyone going to Bixiao Valley."
"yes."
"Did you bring the things I asked you to bring?"
Tianqing took out a sachet from his arms and handed it to Pei Yu respectfully.
"Go down."
"I'll take my leave."
Pei Yu opened his purse and found a small peace locket with the word "Yu" engraved on it. There were also three silver notes of 500 taels in the purse.
Pei Yu put away his purse, blew out the oil lamp and went to bed.
Chen Li had been paying attention to the movements over there. After the man in black left and the lights in Wei Zian's room were turned off, Chen Li closed her eyes and went to sleep.
In the past few days, Chen Li has been waiting for Wei Zian to give her money so that she can leave quickly.
As a result, this person was calm and composed all day long and did not mention leaving at all.
Look, he is sitting in the yard now, leisurely drinking tea. If you don’t know, you would think this is his home!
Chen Li looked up at the sun in the sky. It was such a bright sun, and yet he was still drinking hot tea. He really didn't know what to say.
Now, the weather is getting hotter and hotter. It is only the beginning of May, but the temperature is estimated to be 30 degrees, and it has lasted for more than half a month.
You know, in previous years, the temperature would not stabilize until late May.
Looking at the blue sky with few clouds, Shen Li felt sad!
The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and there is no air conditioning or refrigerator!
Well, ice. It seems that saltpeter can be used to make ice. As for the exact amount, you have to try it to know.
However, you cannot consume too much saltpeter ice. You can buy it to cool down, but it is not very efficient!
And where could she find so much saltpeter?
However, this recipe is not completely useless. If you can't use it yourself, then when you find the right person, you can sell it!
If you earn some money, you can have ice.
Chen Li thought wildly for a while, then walked over to Wei Zian and sat down.
"Has Master Wei's injury healed?"
Pei Yu had a faint smile on his face, making him look even more distant.
“Thanks to Miss Shen, the injury has healed.”
Chen Li simply went straight to the point. When talking to these young and old men, you have to be direct, otherwise you have to beat around the bush.
Especially someone like Wei Zian who is very cunning, he can lead you in many twists and turns.
"When will Master Wei leave?"
Pei Yu's smile deepened. It turned out that Miss Shen had been thinking about this problem these days.
"I was originally scheduled to leave tomorrow."
Pei Yu took out a purse and said, "Miss Shen, this is the reward. There is also a token inside. If Miss Shen encounters difficulties one day, you can take the token to Yingyue Tower for help."
