Zhao Yingrong's eldest son, Zhao Fusheng, didn't show up last night and didn't know much about the nature of these four people. But just now he took a closer look and saw that among the four people, Gu Chen was obviously the one in charge.
Zhao Fusheng noticed that the atmosphere at the banquet was a bit solemn, and he also knew that if he didn't speak, he would be afraid of breaking his head if the leaves fell. His dear father, who cherished his life to the point of being sick, might collapse.
He lowered his head and took a deep breath. He raised his head and said with a hearty smile: "My little sister is willing to stay in the village for a while. This is an honor for everyone in the village. However," he changed the topic and said worriedly: "But the village Most of the people in the middle and lower classes are men with vulgar manners, and I am afraid that they may accidentally bump into the young martial aunt, so why not Master Gu Xian and stay here as well? This will give me the best of both worlds, and I will be the lucky one in this village."
Gu Chen grinned noncommittally, revealing a row of neat white teeth. His smile was gentle and a little strange.
Zhao Fusheng felt an inexplicable chill down his spine. He looked over again and saw that Gu Chen's expression was as usual. He shook his head and suddenly realized that he had been overindulging in sex and sleeping too little these days, and his eyesight was dazzled.
After a moment of silence, Li Changming and Dou Weiqi saw that there was no more excitement. They quickly picked up the wine glasses and toasted Gu Chen and the others with smiles, looking particularly warm and friendly.
Yao Yao raised her eyebrows, leaning on the railing with a wine cup and looking outside. She was not a bad drinker, but she would get drunk if she touched a little wine. Her face was white and rosy, and her eyes were blurry enough to make her look like a real woman. A bored drunkard.
After what happened just now, several people in the Qingyun Village in the hall believed that Yao Yao was an innocent and simple troublemaker. Now that she was drunk again, they completely ignored her and allowed her to roam around in the hall. Walk around and look around.
Bao Cheng drank a glass of wine distractedly. Ever since he entered the Qingyun Village, his heart had never been at peace. He was beating up and down. He was so frightened that his heart almost jumped out of his mouth when he opened his mouth.
He looked around and saw that all the guests and hosts were drinking and having a great time. The hustle and bustle made the roof tiles ring. No one noticed him. He then walked up to Yao Yao with a wine cup in hand and laughed loudly. After saying this, he asked in a low voice: "How are you doing? Did you see anything?"
Yao Yao held the wine cup, raised his chin slightly, and sighed in agony: "Bald head."
It was so dark last night that you couldn't even tell whether the person standing opposite was a man or a woman. You could only vaguely see a rough outline. But now, under the bright sky, standing at the highest point of the mountain village, Everything in it is exposed in front of you at a glance.
All of this was indeed as she had judged last night. The thorns and hollies in the village were indeed clearly arranged, and figures flashed quickly among the thorns.
The roads in the village are criss-crossed and covered by dense thorns and holly. When one is on the road, the dense thorns and holly are just like the curtains of the lamp array. It is impossible to see where each road leads. Come and lead to where.
It's like walking through a maze, and I don't know if there are any traps or traps on the way. It's full of dangers.
Only by standing at the highest point can you get a somewhat complete picture.
Yao Yao's beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly, and her bright almond-shaped eyes narrowed slightly. After a moment of silence, she shook her head and said, "I've written it down, but I still have to think carefully about what the formation is."
"Just, in just a moment, I just remembered it all!" Bao

Cheng stared, patted Yao Yao's hair, and whispered in surprise: "Are you a human head?"
Yao Yao snorted and rolled his eyes: "What do you mean by this, do you want to be a water bandit here for the rest of your life and then be wiped out by that living king of hell?"
"Shh, shush." Bao Cheng's expression changed, and he made a gesture of silence: "Don't talk nonsense, if I die here, you won't have any friends."
Yao Yao's voice became louder, he curled his lips in disdain, held the wine cup and leaned against the railing to blow the wind, and continued to look around casually.
This cottage occupies a very wide area, with a radius of dozens of feet, forming an irregular square. There is an arrow tower about three feet high standing on the four corners. Although the four arrow towers are simple and rough in construction, they are already very large. I got a bit of the essence of the construction of military archery towers.
Yao Yao's eyebrows twitched, and he felt a bit ominous in his heart. He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked far into the distance, only to see the shadows of people intertwined in the arrow tower, the cold light flashed, and an astonishing number of arrows were clearly placed in the arrow tower.
Yao Yao's heart sank. Such a water bandit village, which relied on robbing homes and houses to make a living, actually purchased so many bows and arrows that could attack from a long distance. I am afraid it was not just to resist the encirclement and suppression by the imperial officers and soldiers.
After all, for decades, the imperial court had not even found the lair of this wave of water bandits.
One is that the world was in chaos a few years ago. The group of people with soldiers and money were all staring at the chair, fearing that someone would snatch it away. How could they have the time to deal with these little minions who could not affect the direction of the court? .
Secondly, although the world has become much more stable in recent years, this wave of water bandits has also calmed down and has never caused much trouble. The court has never been rich, and most of the troops, food and wages have to be used to resist the Turks. If they are harassed, they will have no time to take care of these water bandits.
In this case, how come the water bandits in Qingyun Village did not relax at all, but instead became more and more arrogant, making the operation of the village impregnable?
Yao Yao had a sudden thought in his heart, unless there was some secret in Qingyun Village that could not be revealed to others, something that would cause great disaster if leaked.
Thinking of this, Yao Yao turned his head and looked at everyone drunkenly.
If there really is such a scourge hidden in the village, who would know the secret?
Just as Yao Yao was looking around carefully, there were sudden screams from downstairs, which made people's hearts tremble and they looked at each other in fear.
With a "bang", Yao Yao's hand shook, and the cup fell to the ground with a sharp shattering sound, and pale porcelain pieces burst everywhere.
Her face was pale and she looked at the stairs in horror, tears welling up in her eyelashes.
When Zhao Yingrong and others saw her timid appearance, the last trace of their wariness towards her disappeared.
This is a film about a little girl who has no knowledge and is as timid as a mouse.
Bao Cheng grabbed Yao Yao's arm tightly, supported her as she was about to collapse, and chuckled in her ear: "You really pretend to be."
The screams got louder and louder, approaching the hall more and more, and then there were the sounds of panicked footsteps on the wooden stairs, which sounded like a group of people running in.
The dishes and chopsticks on the food table jingled, and the wine in the wine cup rippled out violently, spilling all over the food table.
The heavy bodies and heavy footsteps of the group of people running over are difficult to imagine and estimate.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
There is a strong attitude that he will not give up until the floor collapses.
There was a man in the group who had a particularly loud voice, and the shrill screams came from his mouth. The shouting sound almost overturned the roof, but he ran and shouted, and the wheezing sound of his breathing was drowned out. The muttering voice made it impossible to hear what he was shouting.
Before anyone could get up to see what happened, the group of people had already rushed into the pavilion.
The man running at the front was a man with disheveled hair and shabby clothes. He rushed into the hall out of breath. When he saw the hall full of people, he wailed in surprise and misery: "Why, there are so many people!!"
Everyone looked at each other in shock. They felt extremely guilty when they said this, as if they were committing a huge sin.
The man turned around and saw the water bandit coming over sharply sharpening his knife. He was so frightened that his two limbs were fighting, his eyes widened, tears and snot all over his face, and he shouted in despair at the top of his lungs: "I am the Crown Prince of Han. My younger brother, Han Changyun, the biological son of King Han, you can’t kill me. You have to provide me with good food and drink, otherwise I will let my father and my brother lead their troops to flatten your mountain and make you die without a burial place! !”
Hearing this, the harsh clanking of swords suddenly stopped. A group of water bandits looked at each other and hesitated. They all looked up at Zhao Yingrong, hoping that he could make an idea.
Zhao Yingrong was suddenly looked at by so many pairs of expectant eyes. He opened his mouth and was so worried that he almost cried.
What idea can he make? He has no idea.
According to his idea, he did not want to provoke the younger brother of Prince Han, the biological son of Prince Han.
What are you doing to provoke this deity? He cannot be beaten, scolded or killed, he cannot be beaten, scolded or killed, he cannot lift his shoulders with his hands, and he has to offer good food and drink. He is really offering sacrifices to an ancestor.
When Xue Shou brought this man back, he was completely confused.
He really didn't know why he had caught this man. Even if he was given a lot of gold, he still had to live to spend it, right?
He just wants to be a leader of water bandits who only robs the rich without helping the poor, bullies men and dominates women, and so on. He really has no ambition to fight with the imperial court to the death.
He has no interest in the world or that chair at all. He is too tired to take care of the food, drink, toilet and sleep of the people in the world.
He was full of panic and subconsciously looked at Xue Shou.
Xue Shou turned her head away from Zhao Yingrong's eyes, regretting it endlessly.
Why was he so blind back then that he picked such a coward?
Gu Chen and the other four were also dumbfounded. When they arrived, they had all heard about Han Changyun and knew that he was also trapped in the water bandits' cottage. In addition to finding out the details of the water bandits' cottage, they wanted to protect it. Leng Linjiang and Xie Mengxia also shouldered another important task, which was to bring Han Changyun out smoothly. They couldn't lack arms, let alone legs.
But Gu Chen never thought that there would be such a useless snack in the Han family army of the dignified Prince Han's palace!
The coffin boards of the ancestors of the Han family can no longer hold it!
Yao Yao was speechless for a moment.
It is human nature to be afraid of death, and everyone is afraid of death. But this was the first time she had seen people like Han Changyun seeking death by getting on the pole.
If you can't fight and run away, just keep a low profile and deliberately provoke the other party, which is just looking for a fight.
