“Dahu, an old man fell into the pit!”
Xiaohu ran to the small garden and found Dahu, who was looking for him.
Just now, it was Dahu and Erhu’s turn to hide while Xiaohu searched.
Xiaohu looked around but couldn’t find them, so he gave up and played with the little flower drum instead.
A life was at stake, so Dahu would not argue with Xiaohu about hiding.
“Erhu, come out quickly!”
Dahu said.
“Fine.”
Erhu obediently climbed down from the tree.
Dahu was a good child with a strong sense of justice. He brought his two younger brothers to find someone to save the old man.
Dahu first eliminated his weak master and tried his best to go to a crowded place.
Therefore, he came to the entrance of the Scripture Depository and shouted at the crowd outside, “Hurry up and save him! An old man fell into the pit!”
Therefore, Lou Bufan’s sorry appearance of climbing out of the feces pit was watched by everyone in the City Lord Manor, including the various sect masters and disciples who had come to watch the three of them enter the Scripture Depository after receiving the reward.
Villa Master Qiu of the Hidden Sword Villa looked at him in a complicated manner. “Pavilion Master Lou, why did you…”
They had already fenced it.
How suicidal were you to insist on jumping in?
This was the first time Lou Bufan had lost so much face in his life. He even wanted to kill someone!
“Xiaohu, where’s your flower drum?” Dahu asked.
Xiaohu quickly shook his head.
–
Wei Ting, Su Mo, and the Slave Killer entered the Scripture Depository.
Wei Ting thought for a moment and said, “I just heard Dahu’s voice.”
Su Mo said, “Don’t worry, he won’t call you.”
Wei Ting muttered, “Can I beat up my brother-in-law?”
Before entering, Wei Ting had confirmed the rules with the elders.
The first place could choose the secret manual on the third floor. It was not that he could only go to the third floor, but the highest he could go to was the third floor. He could stroll around the lower two floors at will.
However, fighting was prohibited in the pavilion. Once discovered, both parties would be killed by the guardian puppet.
Wei Ting stopped the Slave Killer. “Brother, what secret manual are you looking for?”
Slave Killer: “What does it have to do with you?”
Wei Ting smiled. “I’m just asking.”
The Slave Killer gave this guy a suspicious look and left without looking back.
Wei Ting said, “If you can’t read, I can help you find it! It’s not expensive. 1,000 taels! If you don’t give me face, I’ll draw my sword!”
Slave Killer drew his sword.
Just as he pulled out three inches, a terrifying internal force attacked and stabbed his sword back into the scabbard!
The dust on the bookshelf rose. Even Wei Ting and Su Mo, who were a few steps away, choked.
The two of them looked at the guard puppet at the same time.
He stood motionless in the dark corner like a cold statue.
The attack just now was a warning.
The Slave Killer frowned bitterly and wanted to pull out his sword again, but he endured it.
“Are you asking for a beating?” Su Mo glanced at Wei Ting.
Wei Ting said in a low voice, “I’m testing the strength and bottom line of the guardian puppet.”
It seemed that the guardian puppet was very powerful. It was impossible for him and Su Mo to play tricks under his nose. They could only obediently look for the secret manual.
Wei Ting said, “Let’s search from the first floor for the Rakshasa Secret Technique.”
Su Mo said, “Yes.”
They came to the Scripture Depository for two purposes. One was to find the complete Rakshasa Secret Technique, and the other was to find out the background and secrets of the Xiahou family. The former was relatively easy.
It was easy to settle it first.
In case they could not get any in the end.
However, they had underestimated the size of the Scripture Depository.
“There are so many books…”
Wei Ting looked at the bookshelves that were almost endless. This was a library that made even the top scholar feel pressured.
Wei Ting encountered the Slave Killer who was looking for the secret manual again.
“Brother, I was just joking with you. Don’t take it to heart. I didn’t say anything when you caught my bird last time.”
Slave Killer glanced at a part of Wei Ting. “I didn’t.”
Wei Ting looked down. “It’s not this bird… Hey, do you want to make a deal? Help me find a secret manual. You can name the price.”
Slave Killer said, “I can’t read.”
Wei Ting was speechless.
An hour later, the search on the first floor was completed.
It was too difficult to find. Some secret manuals were so damaged that they did not have names. He could only read the contents inside, which slowed down the overall progress.
Su Mo said, “There are still two floors left. You can only go up to the third floor yourself. We have to speed up.”
The two of them went to the second floor.
The heavens did not disappoint those who worked hard. Just as two hours were about to be used up, the two of them finally found the complete Rakshasa Secret Technique.
Wei Ting flipped through it. “It’s clearly a few pages better than Granny’s Rakshasa Secret Technique.”
“Don’t look.”
Su Mo closed the secret manual in Wei Ting’s hand.
Granny Nie had instructed him not to read the Rakshasa Secret Technique casually. If he accidentally memorized it, it was easy to cultivate it by mistake.
Granny only let them read the first two pages so that they could accurately screen the book.
“Got it,” Wei Ting said casually.
Su Mo took the Rakshasa Secret Technique. “I’ll bring this book.”
Wei Ting sighed. “Alright, I’ll go to the third floor. You can leave first.”
“I’ll wait for you.”
Two hours were almost up. Su Mo was afraid that he would go all out.
Wei Ting said helplessly, “Why are you harder to deal with than my brothers?”
Although that was the case, if Su Mo was not around, he did plan to go all out.
But he could not drag Su Mo down with him.
He could only hope that Ling Yun would stall for more time.
At the pavilion, Ling Yun was playing chess with Xiahou Qing.
The three little ones watched the game from the side.
With every step the two of them took, the three little ones would reveal extremely exaggerated expressions. “Wow!”
They were really supportive.
Xiahou Qing was amused. “Do you know how to play chess too?”
The three little ones nodded.
“Does the City Lord want them to play a round with you?”
Xiahou Qing was stunned.
Ling Yun didn’t give him a chance to refuse. “Xiaobao is awake. Dahu, you go first.”
With that, he stood up and gave up his seat to carry Wei Xiaobao in the cradle.
Xiahou Qing wanted to say something but hesitated. However, this was the first time his son had taken the initiative to look for him. If he rejected him, it would stiffen the father-son relationship that had finally eased up.
Xiahou Qing braced himself and started playing with Dahu.
He thought that the child was fooling around, but he did not expect the little fellow’s chess skills to be respectable.
Playing chess with Dahu allowed Xiahou Qing to experience the joy of family for the first time.
Just as he finished with Dahu, the guards of the Scripture Depository came over.
Ling Yun said quickly, “Erhu, it’s your turn!”
“Okay, okay!”
Erhu climbed onto the stool.
Ling Yun said, “City Lord, you can’t favor one over the other. Otherwise, the children will be sad.”
Xiahou Qing thought for a moment. There was no harm in playing another round. Anyway, children could not hold a few chess pieces.
Erhu played with stones the entire time and did not last long.
It was soon Xiaohu’s turn.
As an expert at ruining chess, Xiaohu went wherever he was not allowed to go, causing smoke to rise from Xiahou Qing’s head.
The guard arrived outside the pavilion and was stopped by Steward Chang.
The guard said, “It’s time. The elders asked me to invite the City Lord over.”
Steward Chang said calmly, “Can’t you see that the City Lord is busy?”
“But…”
“Can you bear the responsibility of disturbing the City Lord’s interest?”
The guard could only return to report to the four elders.
The elders waited for another hour, but the City Lord did not come over. The three people inside did not come out.
How improper was this?
Elder Li decided to invite him personally.
Manager Chang could not stop him.
Ling Yun could only use his trump card.
He looked at Wei Xiaobao in his arms. Time was tight and he had to do something.
He protected Wei Xiaobao firmly and fell to the ground, “fainting”.
Wei Xiaobao, who was eating her hand, was stunned.
Her big black eyes blinked and she took her small hand out of her mouth. She also tilted her head.
She fainted!
