Although he acknowledged Wu Minzhi as his friend, to be honest, Li Qinzai did not actually regard him as a friend in his heart.
On the contrary, Li Qinzai was still somewhat wary of him.
After all, he is from the Wu family.
Nowadays, the relationship between Li Qinzai and Empress Wu is very cold. He really can't be sure whether Wu Minzhi came here to be an undercover agent or really came to make friends.
At night, Qiao'er came back from school. When she heard the voice at the door saying that Wu Minzhi was coming, Qiao'er's face changed drastically and she quickly rushed back to her room.
When he returned to his room, he was still worried, so he begged Liu Asi to send two men to guard the door.
The enemy came to his door and was actually drunk at his house. Qiao'er's young mind was frightened and confused. His CPU was almost burned out and he didn't understand the purpose of Wu Minzhi's mysterious operation.
Late at night, everyone in the other courtyard went to bed.
Li Qinzai slept deeply with Cui Jie in his arms. Since she became pregnant, Cui Jie's sleep state has not been good. She always wakes up in the middle of the night and wakes up more often, and her temper is a bit unstable.
What's even more obvious is that Cui Jie's morning sickness has become more frequent in recent days.
Fortunately, Li Qinzai had some fragmentary knowledge about pregnant women in his previous life, and knew that women during pregnancy would undergo various physical and psychological changes.
Li Qinzai hugged Cui Jie every night. Although he couldn't help her solve anything, the strange thing was that she always slept soundly when Li Qinzai put his arm around her.
As for Li Qinzai's sleep, there is no need to worry about this. Unless lightning strikes him, it will be difficult to wake up.
However, the Li Family Courtyard is destined to be restless tonight.
In the middle of the night, a rapid knock on the door woke the couple up.
Li Qinzai opened his eyes in a daze, and instantly became furious, with a murderous look in his eyes.
The maid was trembling outside the door, with a tragic tremor in her voice.
"Fifth Young Master, something happened in the front yard."
Li Qinzai yelled angrily: "What happened? I'll bury the dead people until tomorrow. Get out!"
There was no movement outside the house, and the maid obviously didn't dare to stroke the tiger's beard any more.
Cui Jie's arm was twisted hard, and Cui Jie stared at him dissatisfied: "I have an accident at home, can your husband still sleep? Go out and take a look!"
Li Qinzai had no choice but to get up, put on his clothes sloppily, and punched the air a few times like crazy: "What a sin!!"
"No matter who causes trouble, tonight is his death anniversary. You must die!"
The murderous Li Qinzai came to the front yard.
Dozens of soldiers had gathered in the front yard, each holding a torch. Manager Song and Liu Asi were waiting for Li Qinzai anxiously.
Seeing him coming out with a frosty face, Manager Song immediately stepped forward to greet him. He didn't even bother to apologize and said hurriedly: "Fifth Young Master, it's bad, the guest who came to our house today ran away..."
Li Qinzai was originally full of anger, but when he heard this, he couldn't even care about his anger and said in shock: "What do you mean by running away?"
"Running away means running away..."
Li Qinzai glanced at him coldly: "Do people who have never been beaten like to talk like this?"
Manager Song was startled and hurriedly explained: "After the guest was drunk, the old man arranged for his servants to help him into the north wing of the front yard to sleep. At midnight tonight, the guard on duty at the door came to report that the guest suddenly I woke up, and for some reason, I ran out of the door wearing a thin undershirt and bare feet, and disappeared in a flash..."
Li Qinzai was taken aback, and his expression suddenly turned ugly.
After pondering for a moment, Li Qinzai tentatively asked: "Maybe... he is used to exercising in the middle of the night?"
Manager Song sighed and said, "I don't dare to make any guesses, but after the guest ran out, all the dogs in the village started barking. This..."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a burst of noise outside the door.
Li Qinzai and his tribe walked out of the door, only to see dozens of farmers gathered outside the door with torches. When Li Qinzai came out, an old farmer came forward to salute.
"Fifth Young Master, please forgive us for being disrespectful by disturbing your dreams in the middle of the night..."
Li Qinzai said hurriedly: "It's okay, let's talk about something."
The old villager hesitated for a moment and said: "I just wanted to ask you if a guest came to your house today. The dogs in the village just barked non-stop. Some people said they saw the guest running around the village barefoot. , and even got into the farmer’s yard to steal chickens..."
"We haven't encountered a chicken thief in the village for many years. I'm really not sure whether he is your guest, so I dare to come and ask you..."
Li Qinzai's cheek twitched violently several times.
Sure enough, crazy criticism is terrible.
"What happened after the man stole the chicken?" Li Qinzai asked quickly.
The old farmer said: "The customer stole the chicken and ran away. As he ran, he plucked most of the feathers off the chicken. The chicken crowed louder than a dog. What a sin..."
Li Qinzai looked up to the sky and sighed: "What next?"
"Of course the dogs in the village couldn't tolerate such evil thieves...well, such distinguished guests, so all the dogs in the village ran out to chase him. The guest may have been impatient, so he threw the chicken and turned around to chase the dog."
"The dogs in our village still lacked experience. They had never seen such a life-threatening battle, so they turned around and ran away. The dogs ran in front, and the people chased behind. The guests chased for a mile, across the entire Zhuangzi, finally... disappeared."
Li Qinzai rubbed his face vigorously.
By now he was exhausted both mentally and physically.
"This is the weasel that has become a spirit..." Li Qinzai murmured.
Seeing Li Qinzai's ugly face, the old villager said cautiously: "Fifth Young Master, your distinguished guest seems a bit... well, different. I know the Taoist priests from the nearby Taoist temple, and their methods are very effective. I would like you to invite him here for you. He drives away evil spirits, calms down spirits and so on..."
Li Qinzai was really tempted and couldn't help but ask: "Is it really effective?"
The old villager suddenly raised his chest and showed pride. He didn't know what he was proud of: "Of course it works. Drink a bowl of talisman water and all diseases will disappear. Recite a spell and you will be infertile for life..."
Li Qinzai secretly wrote it down as a backup plan. He really felt that Wu Minzhi was possessed by evil spirits.
Ordinary crazy people are not crazy to this extent, this must be the behavior of senior crazy people.
"Find someone first," Li Qinzai said in final words: "Find the person first and then we'll start. This person has a good status. If something happens to him in our village, I won't be able to tell."
"Excuse me, all the farmers in Zhuangzi, please work hard tonight. Get organized and look for him in all directions. All the troops in the mansion are setting off. By the way, where is Old Wei? He is an expert at finding people, let him be responsible for the division of labor."
Old Wei took the lead and led everyone out of the village, lighting up torches and going in various directions to look for people.
Li Qinzai stood outside the empty gate, stood there for a long time, and suddenly punched the air fiercely: "What a sin!"
If time could go back, Li Qinzai would choose to apologize to Wu Minzhi. No matter who was right or wrong, it was right to apologize. After apologizing, he would respectfully send him out of the village. From then on, the world would be far away, even if he didn't know each other again.
The most stupid thing to do is to recognize this friend, buy him a drink, and let him stay overnight.
Then Li Qinzai was suddenly startled. Could this crazy criticism really be sent by Empress Wu to avenge him?
If so, Empress Wu was so successful!
I recommend a new book, a doomsday science fiction themed book titled "Apocalypse Forbidden Zone", written by the author in the year of his attack.
If you like apocalyptic science fiction, you may want to read it.
