Chapter 48 Ups and downs

The room was unusually quiet, except for the sound of my breathing, which was a bit harsh. The soundproofing effect of these rooms was exceptionally good. I wasn't worried about others being able to tell that there was someone in the room, but I couldn't hear any movement outside.

Time ticked by, Master and I were silent, but we felt so sad every second.

Master was sitting on the sofa in the room, looking calmer than me. I was sitting with my back against the door, frowning and staring at the watch in my hand, counting the time. Somehow, the memory of that year was particularly clear.

appeared in front of my eyes.

I remembered that I had met Rainbow Dash. At that time, he was still an unruly young man. He looked only 17 or 8 years old? Anyway, he looked a few years younger than me.

And that year, Yun Xiaobao also told me that Yun Bao's roots were chopped off and his spiritual jade was broken, and he wanted to buy another piece of spiritual jade.

Now, he only told me about the cracks in the spiritual jade, and told my master and me that Yun Baogen had planted a seed in his heart because of the spiritual jade, and wanted to practice Taoism. My memory and the scene of eating in Chengdu many years ago

overlap.

That unruly young man didn't even have the slightest desire to practice Taoism? He even contradicted me and Su Rou.

Could it be that Yun Xiaobao was also confused? I touched my face unconsciously, my mind began to think quickly, and I felt my emotions with my heart. I found that after hiding in this room, the uneasiness in my heart had turned into a faint hint of danger.

omen.

My memory has always been good, but people have this kind of subconsciousness, that is, the memory of unimportant people and things is like being covered in dust. After traveling all over the world and experiencing so many things over the years, who would deliberately remember that one time?

The little thing about the holiday during the New Year holiday? If I hadn’t been stimulated like this, how could my memory emerge so clearly? I can even recall every sentence of the conversation. It’s been more than 10 years since that incident happened.

It was really difficult for me. I sighed. My first thought was that with the vicissitudes of time, the unruly Yun Baogener actually believed in the so-called 'superstition' and embarked on the path of a cultivator when he was young.

His voice was so different from his voice as an adult that I didn't even recognize it was him.

Perhaps because of being 'transformed' by Yang Sheng, his voice has changed.

I just thought this subconsciously, but the dangerous feeling in my heart seemed to turn into a sharp needle, which stung me all of a sudden. My forehead was suddenly covered with fine cold sweat. A father who loves his children so much, Yun

I, the only child in the family, stood up with a roar and strode towards Master!

Master looked at me with some confusion, then subconsciously glanced at the clock on the wall, and said to me: "Chengyi, this has only lasted three minutes, please calm down."

But I grabbed Master, walked quickly to the window of the villa, and looked down.

This is the back side of the house. Below is a back garden with a swimming pool. There was no one around at the moment. I opened the window and said to the master: "There is no time to explain. We'd better get out of here now."

I can't say the structure of this house at the moment, but looking at it this way, there are rooms on each floor with their own independent balconies or terraces. Even worse, some windows also have those kind of rain shields. If you are careful, you can

Climb down quickly.

"You mean to go down from here? Do you doubt Yun Xiaobao?" What kind of person is the master? Even if I didn't have time to explain anything, he probably guessed something. There was a sad expression on his face. After all, it started with the master.

I have some friendship with the Yun family.

And we have never felt sorry for the Yun family. Even the year we sold the jade, Master even used the jade trade to ask them to do good deeds. From a perspective, it also helped them offset some of their injustice!

It is said that for cultivators, spiritual jade is not precious, but doesn’t it take real time to nourish it?

Of course I could understand Master's sadness, but at this time, how could I comfort Master? I climbed out of the window, grabbed a decoration on the house next to me, and started to jump towards the extended balcony downstairs with the help of my strength.

With a 'pop' sound, I landed on the ground. Thanks to the physical training I have received since I was a child, my coordination has always been good. This jump was purely childish. The only thing I was worried about was that I would jump right into Rainbow Dash's room.

outside.

But it turned out that I was not so unlucky. When I stood up, Master also jumped down, and we continued climbing down without saying a word. There were some things, some tacit understandings that did not need to be stated, and would only turn into deep mutual trust.

We arrived at the second floor smoothly. In order to save time, we jumped directly from the second floor to the garden downstairs and made a few moderate noises, which made Master and I dare not move.

Fortunately, there was really no one walking around in the back garden in the afternoon. After a few seconds, there was no movement in the back garden.

Master and I stood up almost at the same time, dusted ourselves off, and then seemed to be walking in no hurry, but in fact we walked towards the front of the house in a hurry.

"Chengyi, calm down." Master said to me.

And almost at the same time, I also said to Master: "Master, pretend to be calm."

After saying this, in such an urgent situation, Master and I couldn't help but chuckle, because this shows that the tacit understanding between our master and disciple has almost reached a level that is difficult for ordinary people to understand, and we barely discussed it at all.

, especially since Master didn’t even have much time to adapt to the fact that Yun Xiaobao might have betrayed us, but at the same time he thought of what to do?

Yes, we had to pretend to get the car as if nothing had happened. The house was very big, but at such a fast pace, Master and I took the shortest path from the back of the house to the front of the house, and it only took two minutes.

Yun Xiaobao asked us to wait for 10 minutes, and now there are still four minutes left.

The bodyguard standing outside the door of the house saw us early and came over with a respectful attitude. His good professionalism prevented him from asking how we ended up here. In fact, there was no need to ask. I jumped down just now.

At that time, I noticed that this big house can be entered and exited from the front and back.

Watching the bodyguard walk by, a natural and reserved smile appeared on my face. This should be the expression of a person who maintains his own identity. I would like to thank the old man at that time for teaching me a vivid lesson.

People who are in danger often really need to learn how to 'act'.

On the other hand, Master's "acting skills" are not bad either. He looks calm and his eyes are not deliberately focused on anything. At first glance, he looks enigmatic. It seems that he is the same, he is always in danger.

I learned a bit of calm 'acting'.

In short, I believe that with our performance, the bodyguards will never be able to tell that the two of us escaped in embarrassment.

There are only two things I'm worried about now. The first is whether every room in Yun Xiaobao's big house has a monitor? I'm just betting that in such a private place, he won't be so insecure in every room.

Monitors are installed in every room, and he also has to receive guests, and the guests he receives are all people with status. He must be on guard against this, so maybe half of them install monitors.

Anyway, unless this bodyguard is also an actor and approaches us pretending to be calm at this moment, otherwise I won the bet. He did not install a monitor because the bodyguard also has a pair of headphones hanging on his ears. It seems that he can receive any news at any time.

.

Secondly, I was worried that what Yun Xiaobao said about the car was just to deal with me and Master. What he told us when he went downstairs was completely unbelievable even if he walked to the door to ask for a car.

This worry is definitely not unnecessary. I can only bet that Yun Xiaobao will perform the whole set, fearing that Master and I will see something. He is really prepared for everything.

The footsteps of the bodyguards rang in my ears, and my smile became gentler, but with a hint of dignity and arrogance that no one could approach. The master became calmer, but there was also a hint of impatience on his face, as if

If there is something urgent, he no longer wants to stay here.

"Sir, may I ask you a question?" the bodyguard spoke, and the respect on his face was definitely not fake. From the corner of my eye, I saw in the distance that the gate of the manor had been opened, and at least two black commercial vehicles were parked at the door. Patience

Waiting for the servant at the door to open the last barrier blocking the car.

Yun Baogen indeed informed others, but I couldn't figure out what was going on from beginning to end. The uneasiness in my heart had all turned into a feeling of danger at this moment, but compared with the time I met Yang Sheng

When I woke up, the sense of danger became much lighter.

It was this light feeling that kept me in such a good state. I became more and more calm. From the moment the bodyguard spoke, I knew that the first point was that Master and I had completely won the bet. We were still Yun Xiaobao's distinguished guests.

There are no cameras or monitors in the room.

"Mr. Yun has prepared a car for us. Now we have something very urgent to leave. I need the car in a hurry." My tone was slightly indifferent and just right eager, but I was always watching from the corner of my eye.

For the two commercial vehicles outside, the fence at the gate has been slowly opened.

The sense of danger became stronger and the bodyguard said: "Okay, sir, I will drive for you now."

"No, just take us there." I refused him lightly, looking like I was not close to him.
