From the moment Wu Mian Sheng left and returned to being attacked and falling to the ground, everything happened suddenly. Although Pei Hu and Shou Hou had the intention to step forward to check W Mian Sheng's condition, the latter repeatedly warned them not to do anything until they got news about him. Show up.
Fortunately, Heili didn't linger for long and turned around to leave. The two of them picked up Wu Mian Sheng and followed his instructions and left.
Although the injuries sustained by No-Mian Sheng were not serious, the awkward position caused him great pain. Even so, the faceless man's grinning teeth would occasionally be mixed with a few strange laughs, which made Pei Hushouhou couldn't help but wonder if the faceless man had hurt his brain.
Later, whenever they asked about this matter, Wu Mian Sheng also had a mysterious look on his face and refused to say anything. Then his face became even more proud, making the two of them even more confused. However, since Wu Mian Sheng Reluctant to say more, the two of them stopped mentioning the matter later.
The reason why Pei Hu and Shou Hou wanted to follow Wu Miansheng was because he saw his own shortcomings at a glance, and they also hoped that he could enlighten them. However, this faceless man has been around all day long, and the only role they have here is to go down the mountain to pick up goods or prepare food and drinks, which makes the two of them miserable.
"Shou Hou, we have been idle here for more than half a month, and there is no way to continue like this!" Pei Hu finally couldn't hold his breath anymore, slapped his knees and stood up from the stone slab, saying angrily.
"Otherwise, what can we do? Even if we return to the third prince now, I'm afraid we will just cause trouble." Shou Hou sighed, turned over and yawned.
"Do you think this faceless man is playing tricks on us? He just lies on this broken rock doing nothing every day, which has made me gain a few pounds recently! I don't know what the use of lying here is..." Pei Hu snapped He patted his bloated belly and muttered unhappily.
"Don't say that, I think it's quite useful..." Shou Hou said lazily.
"Useful? Could it be that this stone slab is some kind of treasure that can enhance physical fitness?" Pei Hu's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he sat back on the stone slab.
"I don't know if it's a baby... Anyway, after lying down like this recently, I don't have to think about anything. I just feel a lot more relaxed... Now I just want to sleep again... I have to go down the mountain to move boxes at night..." Shou Hou He closed his eyes, put his arms under his head, and curled up.
At first, Shou Hou was naturally dissatisfied and encouraged Pei Hu to escape. But every time the two of them left the stone platform, they would see several bone-piercing nails coming through the air, hooking their clothes and nailing them back. On the stone slab, repeated trials have proved successful, so that now Shouhou has no desire to resist in his heart.
"Sigh... I don't know how the Third Prince and the others are doing now... Marquis Shou? Did you hear that?"
"Snoring..."
"That's it! You sleep with me and I sleep with you! Let's see who is more useless!" Pei Hu saw that Shou Hou was already snoring, and he felt sleepy in his heart, so he fell down on the stone platform and started to snore.
Sleeping during the day and going down the mountain at night, half a month has passed before I know it...
That night, after calculating that it was almost time, Pei Hushouhou wrapped up his clothes and walked along the mountain road. Although the terrain here is complicated, the two of them have been running here for more than a month. Even if they close their eyes, they can know where to go next, and their feet are naturally faster.
The two of them walked in tandem and soon reached the foot of the mountain. They walked along the mountain for a short distance, and a cave appeared in front of them. In the cave, it was still as usual, with two burdens and four bags neatly placed. big box. According to their custom, they threw the money bag into the bamboo house on the ground, put the burden on their shoulders, turned around and left the cave.
Although Wu Miansheng asked them to go down the mountain to pick up the goods, they had never seen a delivery person, so they were naturally curious about who would carry a load to such a remote place.
But no matter how fast they walked down the mountain, except for the remaining warmth on the load, the two of them couldn't catch even half of their figures, and in the end they were exhausted to death.
Except for the delivery person, they didn't know what was in the box. It was several times heavier than ordinary items! However, the box was sealed so tightly that they couldn't see anything, and Wu Mian Sheng strictly prohibited them from opening the box privately. He waved the bone-penetrating nail in his hand to completely eliminate their curiosity.
"Shouhou, do you feel that this box seems to be getting lighter and lighter?" Pei Hu suddenly asked.
"When you say that, it seems that it is indeed much lighter than before..." Shou Hou paused and nodded.
At first, when they first carried the box, they felt as if their whole bodies were falling apart. But today, they found that the weight on their shoulders seemed to be much less.
"Could it be that the delivery person cut corners?" Although Pei Hu questioned, his face was full of gloating.
"Hehe... who knows? We are only responsible for moving anyway, other things have nothing to do with us!" Shou Hou also smiled evilly.
The two of them joked as they went up the mountain, and soon they were back to where they were staying.
"It seems that I came back a little early today, Lord Shou... Come put down your burden and have a few drinks to warm yourself up!" Pei Hu glanced around, then furtively took out a wine bag from his arms and whispered.
"Isn't this good... We are already at the right place. It would be terrible if Mr. No Face finds out that we are lazy!" Shouhou said as he unconsciously took out the wine bag from his arms.
"Wumian Sheng is sleeping like a dead pig now. How could he know that we would be back so soon...ah! Ghost!" As soon as Pei Hu finished speaking, he saw a white shadow squatting behind Shou Hou, and he was suddenly frightened. one time.
Shouhou turned his head hurriedly when he noticed something strange behind him, and his face instantly turned pale. Although the person who came was not a ghost, it was better to see a ghost. After all, ghosts would not compete with them for drinks.
"Sir...listen to my explanation..."
"Explain what?" Wu Mian Sheng yawned and stood up, took the two wine bags into his hands, and continued: "If you complete the task, it doesn't matter how you drink, but I said you can't do it while working. Don’t you know how to drink?”
"But sir... we have already moved our things to the door, we should be done with the work..." Pei Hu looked at the wine bag and muttered.
"Look what you said? Am I such an unreasonable person?" Wu Mian snorted in displeasure and continued: "There should be six boxes today, but why did you only move them back? Four?”
"Ah? Aren't there usually four?" Pei Hu looked at Shou Hou in confusion.
Shou Hou was also confused. He clearly remembered that there was nothing else in the cave. Could it be that he was negligent?
"I'm sorry, sir, let's go there again..." Shouhou winked at Pei Hu. The two looked at the wine bag reluctantly, then turned and left as fast as they could.
"Don't worry, the remaining two boxes are not very big..." The hollow voice of the faceless man came from the distance...
When the two came outside the cave again, they saw that the cave was extremely bright, and they went in very puzzled. When they came to the bamboo house and looked down, they saw that the money bag had disappeared, thinking that this delivery How much leisure do people have, why do they have to come here so late at night and do all the trouble again?
But now is not the time to think about this matter. The two of them looked around for a week but did not notice the existence of half a box, and they were also confused.
"Shou Hou? Do you think this faceless man is asleep? Where is the box here?" Pei Hudong looked around and almost searched the cave, but he couldn't find half a box.
"If there is really a box, it may have been taken away by the delivery person...Forget it, there is definitely no chance today..." Shou Hou frowned, then suddenly his eyes lit up and said: "Huh? Let's leave one behind. For the note, don’t you just ask the delivery person?”
"Haha... You are so quick to react, Hou Hou, why didn't I think of it?"
They did as they were told. Although they had no paper on them, fortunately the color of the lining of their clothes was close to that of paper. Although they did not have pens, fortunately there were many dead branches around. They burned them into charcoal with the help of torches and wrote on the lining. .
Although Pei Hushouhou seems to be a rough man, he studied and studied calligraphy with the third prince. How can he be shallow in literary attainments? Although his strokes are not as good as everyone else's, they are still vigorous and powerful, which is pleasing to the eye.
"That's it! Now we can have a good deal when we go back!" Pei Hu looked at his work with satisfaction, folded it up neatly and handed it to Shouhou: "Shouhou, go find a stone and press it!"
"Okay!" Shou Hou picked up a stone, weighed it in his hands, blew away the dust on it, and was about to put it into the bamboo house together with the note. However, just as he was about to put his hand in, he looked suspicious and said : "What the hell is this..."
Pei Hu took a closer look and saw Shouhou taking out two palm-sized boxes from the bamboo house. Although they were boxes, their appearance was exactly the same as the boxes they carried before, except that they were a little smaller.
"Wumian Sheng said the box wasn't that big, but he didn't say it was this small..." Shou Hou couldn't help but smile bitterly when he saw this. Anyway, they had already obtained the box, so the two of them put it in their arms and hurried back to hand over the errand.
"Sir...are these two things in the box you are talking about?" Pei, Hu and Shouhou handed the so-called "box" out with aggrieved expressions. Just for these two things, they actually made themselves make an extra trip in vain.
"Haha... That's right! That's it!" Wu Miansheng held the two "boxes" in his arms as if he had found a treasure, and then turned around and said: "You guys should go back and rest now. You don't have to lie down anymore. Dawn will come directly." Report from my room…”
"Ah?" The two of them felt excited when they heard this. Could it be that Wu Mian Sheng was finally going to teach him.
"One more thing... I'm afraid that your drinking today will delay things, so I poured it out for you... burp..." Wu Mian Sheng said and couldn't help but hiccup. He laughed, yawned and turned around to leave. .
"Ah?" The two of them felt disappointed when they heard this. Although Wu Mian Sheng explained it like this, the smell of alcohol in his mouth was not convincing at all...
