Chapter 129
"Brother Liu, you don't know the face of a person, but you don't know the heart. How can you guarantee that he won't be bribed by a kid surnamed Su?" Xu Shiping said, turning his head to look at the bearded man whose feet were trembling.

"The head of the family, please forgive me, the little one... the little one really saw Su Huan get into the carriage with his own eyes." The bearded man almost peed in fright. "I swear... swear."

"Who knows whether what you said is true or not. If you lie to me, who will pay for the life of the brother who died?" Xu Shiping's voice was cold.

This tone seemed to make the bearded man bury his dead brother with him.

The bearded man was even more afraid.

Liu Tingquan's second in command didn't speak, he lowered his head and touched his fingertips, and didn't say a word for the bearded man.

Every time he messed up his actions, he was ashamed to speak.

"Come here, drag him down and execute him." Xu Shiping's expression was serious.

This remark stunned many people, and the bearded man became even more frightened and knelt down. "Master, please forgive me. Master, I really didn't betray my brothers. If I betrayed my brothers, why would I come back?"

"You are a master." The bearded man cried in fright, kneeling and crawling towards Xu Shiping.

"Old Hu, tell me everything you know." Liu An shouted.

The bearded man felt aggrieved and scared, and slowly told all he knew.

"The head of the family must have been told to Su Huan secretly by the surname Pi." The bearded man kowtowed.

"Impossible. How did he know that he was from Yinhu Mountain? Your identity was not exposed. You were very careful when you came back. No one must be following you." Xu Youping said.

"Brother Xu, I think some traitor may have reported this matter in advance. I don't blame Lao Hu."

"Now there are many traitors sneaking down the mountain. If their actions are exposed, it is not impossible for them to be secretly reported."

"Brother Liu, do you think I was negligent?"

"No, no." Liu An quickly denied.

"The big boss, the young one doesn't want to die in vain, please give the young one a chance to make amends." The bearded man shouted.

"Oh?" Xu Shiping said, "How do you plan to atone for your crime?"

"Little one would like to assassinate Su Huan alone."

"Fart, I'm afraid you want to run for your life!" Xu Shiping sat up straight suddenly, and slapped his palm on the armrest of the chair vigorously.

"Then please send ten brothers to assist me in assassinating Su Huan. If I have the slightest intention of defecting, please tie me back. I, Hu, will never quibble."

"Okay!" Xu Shiping said: "Let me ask you, how will you assassinate Su Huan?"

"Master, this is not a place to talk. I suspect there is a traitor between us."

"Okay! Except for the head of the family, everyone will leave."

"Yes!"

The thieves avoided suspicion and left one by one.

The bearded man wiped away his tears and said, "Master, when Su Huan takes the provincial exam, he must be fully focused on the exam. This is our best chance to assassinate him."

The bearded man kowtowed. "I beg you, the head of the family, to give me ten brothers. If you don't succeed, you will be benevolent."

The gathering hall became silent.

Liu Tingquan finally spoke. "Uncle, give Lao Hu this chance. I know him well. If he is wronged, it will be more painful than killing him."

The bearded man looked at Xu Shiping expectantly.

"Father, give him a chance to prove himself." Xu Youping also said, if it proves that Lao Hu didn't betray us, he must find out this traitor.

Xu Shiping thought for a while: "Yes, if you can kill Su Huan and come back alive, there will be a big reward."

"Thank you for the success of the family." Old Hu kowtowed heavily, and finally escaped from death, so he got a chance.

Liu An said, "Brother Xu, why don't I choose these ten people for Lao Hu? They are all familiar people, and it would be better to cooperate."

"Okay." Xu Shiping said.

……

The branches and leaves of the big pagoda tree in front of Huaizhi Academy rustled under the blowing of the strong wind.

Su Huan walked into Huaizhi Academy.

A large group of senior brothers were sitting in the yard, with their sleeves rolled up, each with a wooden knife, sawdust flying, and they didn't know what they were doing.

"Oh, old Su is here, just right!" Wang Qian hurried over and pulled Su Huan over.

Su Huan was puzzled. "Old Wang, what are you doing?"

"Don't mention it, ever since you aroused Mr.'s appetite, he has been particularly interested in new gadgets. He tinkered with this for a while and then tinkered with that. Recently, he read Mr. Gongshuzi's book. No, he asked us to tinker with Gongshuzi together. Mister knowledge."

Su Huan was curious: "What are you messing with?"

"Sir, let's study a wooden bird that can fly in the sky for three days." Old Zhang patted his head with his hands. "My head hurts. I can't figure out how Mr. Gongshuzi made a wooden bird fly in the sky for three days."

Chen Youtu said: "Sir, he threw it to us because he couldn't research it himself. It's too bad."

"It's too much. Mister is probably roasting chicken in it now."

"No way, who made him our husband?"

"This is homework, hurry up and do it."

"Old Su, do me a favor, do you have any ideas?"

To be honest, Su Huan was also ignorant, Gong Shuzi's knowledge was too advanced, and he was also ignorant of letting a wooden bird fly in the sky.

This world is not as developed as it was in the previous life, and many things are missing. Under these conditions, it is too difficult to let the wood fly in the sky. Anyway, he can't do it without hanging it.

"What are you going to do?"

"What can I do? Make a wooden kite and see if it can fly." Wang Qiandao, holding the handle of the wooden knife, pushed it back and forth, causing sawdust to fly everywhere.

Su Huan looked up at the sky, it seemed that he couldn't fly anymore.

At this time, Mr. Qin Zhi came out with disheveled hair. He saw a person standing there, who seemed to be slacking off, and was about to reprimand him. He opened his eyes wide and saw that it was Su Huan.

"You have the nerve to come back, kid. You have only been back to the academy a few times in the past few months. Have you forgotten about me, sir?" Mr. Qin Zhi was annoyed, he was really jealous.

"Sir!" Su Huan hurried up. "Students know they are wrong. In fact, they are busy with official duties during this period."

Mr. Qin Zhi glanced at Su Huan. He thought that Su Huan was young and could stay with him for a few more years. He never thought that he could do more things than these senior brothers. This talented scholar was so busy.

"Hmph." Mr. Qin Zhi asked: "You kid, do you know about wooden cows and horses?"

"I heard it's a wooden cow and horse that can move on its own?"

"Yes, it was created by Mr. Kong Ming." Mr. Qin Zhi took out a book from his arms, which was the collection of Kong Ming. "You kid has a lot of ideas, and you can often come up with new things. Do you have an idea to get the wooden cow out?"

Su Huan searched his brains, but he didn't have any information about Mu Niu Liu Ma in his mind, and the system couldn't be changed. Even if it was changed according to the requirements, it was all mechanical, which was different from the real Mu Niu Liu Ma.

What Mr. Qin Zhi wants to understand is the principle, not a wooden cow.

Mr. Qin Zhi brought out a wooden ox from the house. It was well carved, but it couldn't run, and its four stiff feet stood on the ground.

Su Huan said: "Sir, I think the Mulius cattle and horses must have wheels, not four legs."

Several senior brothers also came together, listening to Su Huan's evaluation, they were looking for inspiration.
