Chapter 34: He must be killed
This family happened to be from a wealthy family. There were bloodstains on the wealthy family's face, marks left by whipping. They looked at Chen Shi who climbed over the wall and came in in horror.
As soon as Fugui's legs became weak, he had the thought of kneeling down and begging for mercy.
Chen Shi didn't know what Fugui was thinking, so he looked around and whispered: "Fugui, where are your parents?"
Fugui's parents are not at home, he is alone.
Fugui said with a trembling voice: "Here, cooking outside..."
"Cooking?"
Chen Shi frowned slightly, opened the door and walked out.
Fugui was relieved when he saw him going out.
He didn't recognize Chen Shi before, so he dared to make friends with Chen Shi. After Chen Shi saved him and became his benefactor, he felt a little embarrassed.
But later, when he heard that Chen Shi was the famous "dead child", he only felt fear in his heart.
"A child who is resurrected from the dead is no longer a human being. Who knows whether the person occupying the child's body is a human being or a ghost?"
His mother said to him, "Even his own soul turned into a ghost first and then a human!"
Chen Shi walked out of Fugui's house and walked along the street. He gradually heard wailing sounds coming from the houses on both sides of the road.
The wailing person wanted to scream out in pain, but seemed to dare not make a sound, so he could only moan in a low voice.
He looked around, but still didn't see a single villager.
Only a few steps away, you can see a guard in uniform, standing on both sides of the road.
Seeing that he was a child and that he came from a wealthy family, these royal guards paid no attention to him.
The wails became lower and lower, but they still came from the houses on both sides.
He came to the center of Huangyang Village, which was an open space. In addition to the temples in ruins, there were also several large trees that cast a wide shade.
There are more than a dozen villagers from Huangyang Village here. Four stoves have been set up in the open air, and iron pots are placed. Hot water is boiling in the pots. There is also a steamer, which is steaming with white steam.
An old man was scooping up boiling water to scald chickens and ducks to facilitate the hair removal. Three villagers were cooking vegetables. Several women were squatting by the well washing fruits, vegetables, meat and eggs. There were also people cutting vegetables and putting them on plates in front of the table.
Several royal guards stood around, watching them cook.
Although it was a lively scene, the villagers of Huangyang Village all had wounds on their bodies and faces, with traces of being whipped.
It's almost noon now, and it's time to cook. But looking at the size of Huangyang Village, they must be organizing a banquet, which has drained every family's money.
Chen Shi was looking around. When a guard in golden clothes saw his clean face, he waved and shouted: "Baby, come here! Come deliver the food!"
Chen Shi stepped forward.
"The dishes will be cooked later and you can take them to the temple."
The guard in Jinyi held a cowhide whip and said, "The people in the temple are nobles from the provincial capital. You have to have some eyes. When you get to the temple, don't ask what you shouldn't ask and don't listen to what you shouldn't hear. Do you understand?"
"I understand, I understand!" Chen Shi nodded repeatedly.
When the surrounding villagers of Huangyang Village heard his voice, they all looked at him, dumbfounded.
The Jin Yiwei waved his whip and sneered: "What are you looking at? Hurry up and do your work! You, go over and cook! Be quick!"
He was pointing to none other than Fu Gui Dad.
Fu Gui's father came over in a hurry, looked at Chen Shi, did not dare to say anything, and lowered his head while cooking.
He is the cook in the village, and he is always invited to attend weddings and funerals from all over the country. Although the dishes he cooks are not as exquisite as those made by the master chefs in restaurants in the city, the taste is not inferior at all.
In just a quarter of an hour, he cooked four dishes.
Chen Shi put a white towel on his wrist, held the tray, and walked towards the temple.
Fugui dad opened his mouth but said nothing.
Chen Shi came to the temple gate and saw a man lying in the ruins of the palace. There was a big hole in his head, and blood mixed with brains was flowing all over the floor. He was lying face down on his side.
Chen Shi could see half of his face clearly.
It's Sanwang.
The blood in his chest suddenly surged up and rushed into his head. His mind went blank, and there was a swishing sound of blood flowing in his ears, like the roar of the wind!
In a daze, he remembered the strange dream last night.
In his dream, Sanwang warned him and told him to run away quickly!
turn out to be……
Sanwang is really dead.
He stood quietly for a moment, calming his mind.
Chen Shi lowered his head, stepped over the high threshold, and walked into the temple.
The layout of the ancient temple is no longer the same as the one he saw last time. Last time, everything in the temple was simple and simple, with only futons, altar tables, incense burners, shrines, and bronze statues. Now, the futons, altar tables, incense burners, and shrines have all been moved out.
There is an Arhat bed and four armchairs in the temple. A young Confucian scholar is sitting on the Arhat bed, and a woman is sitting opposite. There is a chessboard in the middle, and the two are playing chess sideways.
There were also people sitting on the other four armchairs. They were all dressed as Confucian scholars and looked very young. Some were drinking tea and some were eating preserved fruits, very leisurely.
They should be descendants of the Zhao family, they are pampered and have no murderous intent in them.
There were several Jin Yiwei standing beside them. One of the Jin Yiwei was very majestic. He was about two feet taller than an ordinary person. He was as tall as a standing brown bear. He also had a yellow wax face and a rather ferocious look. He carried a three-eyed fire blunderbuss on his back.
The head is still stained with blood, but the blood has dried.
In the center of the temple, there is an Eight Immortals table with four equal sides and six chairs under the table.
The temple is not big, so with these things, plus twelve people, a table, six chairs, and a bronze statue of a shrine, it seems a bit crowded.
Chen Shi glanced at these children of the Zhao family. The children of the Zhao family did not have the aura of beasts, but the six imperial guards behind them put a lot of pressure on Chen Shi.
There are shrines floating behind the heads of these Jin Yiwei, with divine fetuses sitting on them.
They have been maintaining the shrine and the divine fetus, and they are very vigilant. They are definitely not comparable to the wine bags and rice bags of Li Xiaoding!
They are practical masters!
Chen Shi faced off against three of the Zhao family's guards on the post road. He relied on surprise to get rid of one, and then relied on geographical advantages to get rid of another. The last one was killed by ambushing him in the water. If there was a head-on confrontation, Chen Shi would only be able to kill him.
They can't even handle a single spell!
But here, there are six Jin Yiwei with the same strength!
One of them is the strongest among the strong!
From left to right, Chen Shi divided these Jin Yiwei into one on the left, two on the left, three on the left, one on the right, two on the right and three on the right.
But what really made him feel the danger was the brown bear-like guard third from the right. Not only was he tall and majestic, but more importantly, he had a strong murderous aura and was very brave and fierce. He must have many lives on his hands. This was an experience.
A master of life and death fighting!
All eyes were focused on Chen Shi.
They had never seen Chen Shi, but when Chen Shi stepped into this temple, their eyes fell on him and did not move away.
As guards, they are very experienced.
If Chen Shi showed any flaws or looked strange, he would be killed immediately by their Ziwu Evil-Slaying Sword!
"He will kill you!"
The big fat man huddled in the corner, and when he saw Chen Shi, he couldn't help but get excited and shouted, "He is Chen Shi, the murderer, he will kill all of you!"
But no one heard his words except Chen Shi.
Chen Shi walked steadily and looked as usual as he came to the table of the Eight Immortals.
Sitting on the Luohan bed is Zhao Yue, the third son of Zhao, and the woman playing chess with him opposite is his sister Zhao Xue'e, who is pretty and has the dignity and beauty of a lady.
Zhao Yue straightened his waist, smelled the smell of the food, and praised: "Country cook, the food tastes good. Everyone, let's take a seat."
Chen Shi put down his food, took out the towel from the crook of his elbow, and wiped the table.
Zhao Yan stepped forward and was about to pull out the chair when Chen Shi hurriedly bent down and wiped the chair clean with a towel.
Zhao Yan smiled and said: "Third brother, this kid is very clever! It's rare to meet such a clever kid in the countryside!"
Chen Shi wiped the other five chairs one by one, and then invited the other five Zhao family members to sit down.
During the wiping process, he felt that the bear-like Jin Yiwei's eyes were always on him, and his palm was always grasping the handle of the three-eyed fire gun.
This person put too much pressure on him. He wiped the table and chairs, actually looking for an opportunity to take action. However, this Jin Yiwei let him know that if he took action, his head would be smashed by this person the next moment!
Chen Shi remained silent, wiped the sixth chair clean, put the towel on the crook of his elbow, and turned to leave.
He didn't find any chance to make a move.
If there is no chance, then wait a little longer, and you will always get the chance.
"Wait a minute!"
The bear-like Jin Yiwei opened his mouth, his voice so rich that it made people's eardrums buzz.
Chen Shi stopped. All kinds of thoughts were running rapidly in his mind, thinking about where he had exposed his flaws. The Jinyiwei said: "Try these dishes first."
Chen Shi turned around and picked up a pair of chopsticks.
Zhao Xue'e smiled and said: "He Lianzheng, you are too careful."
The Jinyiwei Helianzheng said: "Be careful and you are not at fault. After all, one person was killed yesterday, and the whole village was sentenced to death. There is no guarantee that these unscrupulous people have evil intentions and poisoned the dishes. Little guy, you take a bite of each dish first. Eat.
Don’t leave after this.”
Chen Shi said yes and stretched out his arm to pick up the first dish.
The dishes made by Fu Gui's father are all ordinary meals in the countryside. The first dish is celery and fungus. The celery is very crisp and fragrant, and the fungus is smooth and tender, and very refreshing.
Chen Shi took a bite and picked up the second dish.
This dish is spicy chicken. It uses a young rooster that has just crowed. The chicken is cut into small pieces, marinated with onions, ginger and salt, then soaked in egg liquid, then rolled in an oil pan, stir-fried, and finally added
Green pepper and red pepper, smooth and spicy in the mouth.
The third dish is fried blood duck. The duck meat is soaked in its own blood, stir-fried in a pot, and various spices are added to lock in the umami flavor to the maximum extent.
Chen Shi tasted three dishes and stretched out his arms to pick up the fourth dish, but his arms were too short to pick up the fourth dish, so he walked around to the other side of the table.
He leaned down and picked up the fourth dish, which was stir-fried frog.
Frog is a toad. Chop off the head of the toad, peel the skin, wash it with water, stir-fry it with salt and oil, and sprinkle with chili powder before taking it out of the pan. It will be spicy and delicious.
Chen Shi had just picked up a frog leg and put it into his mouth, when he was suddenly startled.
Now he came to the opposite side of the table, one table away from the burly Helianzheng like a brown bear. After he had the fourth dish, everyone around the table relaxed, talking and laughing, except for Helianzheng who had not yet
Relax and still stare at him.
Now is a better time to take action!
Chen Shi hesitated. Although this time was good, it was not the best time.
He was eating frog legs, holding chopsticks in his hands, and planned to retreat.
He still has a second chance to deliver food.
Zhao Xue'e sat next to Chen Shi and said to Zhao Yue, the third son of Zhao on the right: "Third brother, how long have Fu Shanke and others been out? They haven't come back yet."
Zhao Yue was also a little confused and said: "Logically speaking, they should have captured Chen Shi... wait a minute!"
When he saw Chen Shi's exposed skin, he was startled, and a thought flashed through his mind: "Why is there no injury on his body?"
Everyone in Huangyang Village was whipped, and some were whipped to death, but the boy who delivered the food did not have any whip marks on his body!
Zhao Yue was worthy of being the third son of the Zhao family and the leader of this trip. He immediately figured out the key, looked a little nervous, and glanced at He Lianzheng opposite.
Helianzheng understood the idea, remained calm, and immediately raised his steps, intending to bypass the Eight Immortals Table, and at the same time, he grabbed the three-eyed fire gun behind him with his palm.
Zhao Yue also remained calm and said with a smile: "Since there is no problem with the food..."
"laugh!"
Zhao Yue's eyes widened and he was a little unbelievable. He saw a chopstick inserted from his right temple, and the chopstick head came out from his left temple, with blood stains on it!
Chen Shi almost slapped the entire chopstick into Zhao Yue's head with his right hand. Zhao Yue looked stunned: "Why did he take action now?"
Chen Shi raised his left hand and inserted the other chopstick into Zhao Xue'e's chest like lightning, piercing the woman's heart.
Zhao Xue'e hadn't recovered yet and was turning her head to look this way. Because the penetration was too fast, she didn't notice the pain.
"Where did I show my weakness?" Chen Shi was still wondering.
——Thanks to Jin Buyi’s silver reward, the boss upgraded Chen Shi to a second-class star!
