Kaifeng Bistro
Chapter 107 Waiting in the Closet
"Really?!" Bai Yutang's eyes lit up, "Quick, tell me where that place is, and I'll check it out right away."
Tan Zhifeng smiled wryly and said: "I... I only know what that place is, but I don't know the exact direction of that place. However, there is someone who can lead the way."
Bai Yutang suddenly realized something, he looked at Tan Zhifeng suspiciously, took his hand and asked, "Zhifeng, how did you know?"
"Because," Tan Zhifeng sighed, "Yesterday Yi Yi and I were locked up in the same place. I think the same group kidnapped us and the Lu family."
Yi Yi, who was on the side, also changed his expression when he heard Tan Zhifeng's words. Before he could speak, Tan Zhifeng made a gesture to him: "It's important to save people. I'll explain to you later."
Although Yi Yi showed displeasure, he remained silent in the end, while Bai Yutang eagerly asked Tan Zhifeng, "What's going on? Who can lead the way?" Seeing that Tan Zhifeng didn't look anxious, he stomped his feet and walked towards him. He whispered in Tan Zhifeng's ear: "Zhifeng... this matter is very important. Lu Xianggong has already gone to Kaifeng Mansion to urge Mr. Bao to solve the case quickly. His weight in the court is unmatched now, and those few people They are all the juniors of the Lu family whom he has placed high hopes on, if something goes wrong with them...no one can afford it!"
"I know." Tan Zhifeng said calmly, "When you go to that place, things will naturally come to light. As for who can lead the way..."
Saying that, Tan Zhifeng raised his hand and pointed. For a moment, everyone in the tavern widened their eyes in surprise, and looked at the direction of Tan Zhifeng's finger in disbelief.
"Me?" Chen Qing, who had just woke up, shook his head in fright: "Zhifeng, I don't know where they are! I, I fell asleep just now, and I have never left this tavern. You Don't you know?"
Tan Zhifeng stepped forward and whispered something to Chen Qing. Chen Qing was stunned, as if he couldn't believe his ears: "How is it possible? Zhifeng, I, I think you must have made a mistake."
"It's not too far from here. If you're right or wrong, you'll know if you go and have a look." Tan Zhifeng's tone was as gentle as usual, but Chen Qing still stammered: "But, but, my father said, He, he never told anyone where the house was, and I..."
At this point, his expression changed, and he swallowed back the words he wanted to say.Tan Zhifeng said for him: "You didn't tell 'others'." Just like you told me, you also told those friends who have always been by your side, have always helped you, and have always been good to you. They are not others. This was just a very common thing. "
"You mean... it's... it's him..." Chen Qing seemed to be even more at a loss this time, he muttered to himself, "But why did he tie you up and Lu Yang, he... Why on earth would he do that?"
"Okay!" Bai Yutang hurried over to Chen Qing and said, "Do you know where Zhifeng said? Then take me to see it right now!"
"No." Surprisingly, Tan Zhifeng stopped Bai Yutang, "Brother Bai, most of them should have been caught now, but the rest of them may be more difficult to deal with than you imagined. Don’t go by yourself, you must go with Big Brother Zhan, and it’s best to invite your master, Master Wen Hui, to go with you.”
"To inquire about the news, I alone is enough." Bai Yutang was full of doubts, "Why do you still need to call Master?"
"Brother Bai, in Taixue today, you said that you encountered some strange things in the northwest, and you want to tell me about it later." Tan Zhifeng changed his voice, and said again: "I guess, what you want to say is, You met some weird... 'people'?"
Bai Yutang's eyes flickered, and his face became more serious: "You mean, there are... Kaifeng too?!"
"Exactly." Tan Zhifeng said: "Have you forgotten the body of A Yuan who disappeared before you left? A Yuan is one of these people. Brother Bai, the matter is more serious than we imagined. Remember, Qian Don't kill them lightly. I only recently thought that they may not be so scary when they are alive, but if they die, I don't know... I don't even know if there is anyone in the world who can deal with them, including Xu Gan, including Master Wen Hui..."
"Okay. I'll listen to you." Bai Yutang stopped arguing with Tan Zhifeng, but pulled Chen Qing and walked out the door with him.When he reached the door, he stopped suddenly and asked, "Zhifeng, do you need to send some people here to protect you? After all, Xu Gan might not wake up for a while, you alone..."
"He still has us." Zhuo Zhuo said behind Tan Zhifeng: "Don't forget, we are very powerful!"
Tan Zhifeng also said: "No, you can send someone to rescue Lu Yang."
Bai Yutang thought for a while, nodded and said, "Okay, take care!" Then he turned around, closed the door, and left with Chen Qing.
"Tan Zhifeng, what the hell are you thinking?!" Yi Yi's face was clouded, he walked up to Tan Zhifeng, stared at him and asked, "Why don't you let Kaifeng Mansion increase its manpower here? We are very dangerous now, Zhuo Zhuo is stupid, and you are also stupid ?"
"Because..." Tan Zhifeng raised his hand and extinguished the dim yellow candles on the counter: "Because someone will come later."
"You've said it several times, who is going to come?" Zhuo Zhuo asked anxiously, "Is it a good person or a bad person?"
"Will there be good people here at this juncture?" Yi Yi asked back: "Tan Zhifeng, you must explain everything to us first! Starting from... the place where we were imprisoned yesterday, what did you do? Suddenly want to know where that place is?!"
"How did I know?" Tan Zhifeng said to himself: "I was just skeptical at first, but today I suddenly figured it out. There are many houses of rich families, but they are vacant, and every inch of land in Kaifeng is expensive. There aren’t that many places.”
"This..." Zhuo Zhuo rolled his eyes in bewilderment: "It makes sense, but you should have never been to such a place, Feng."
"Hey, it just so happens that I have actually been to such a place." Tan Zhifeng said: "I think the people who locked us probably know this too."
Yiyi and Zhuozhuo were even more confused, Tan Zhifeng looked at Yiyi, and said, "So, he didn't forget to lock up our crate of fish with us!"
"What are you talking about? I don't understand at all!" Zhuo Zhuo shouted loudly: "What kind of fish, Zhifeng, can't you explain clearly? Who caught you? You should already know that. "
"I hope I guessed wrong, but I don't think so." Tan Zhifeng stood up and walked slowly towards the next door. While walking, he extinguished all the candles in the tavern: "Later, we have to get ready , welcome this guest."
Yi Yi also stood up together, with a thoughtful look on his face, but Zhuo Zhuo was still anxiously following Tan Zhifeng and asking non-stop.Tan Zhifeng just told her: "Later, you and I will guard the opposite side, in A Yuan's room. Yi Yi, help me take care of Xu Yan and two children."
"No!" Yi Yi blurted out, "Both of us are with you!"
Tan Zhifeng stopped in his tracks, turned around and said seriously to Yi Yi: "Xu Yan, Changshang, and Ling'er, they are very important to me, only you can protect them."
Yi Yi stood there with downcast eyes for a moment, his face finally calmed down: "Okay. I'll do as you said."
……
"Zhifeng..." Zhuo Zhuo and Tan Zhifeng huddled in the cabinet in the corner and looked at each other. Although Tan Zhifeng repeatedly asked Zhuo Zhuo not to speak, Zhuo Zhuo couldn't help it anymore.
"Hush." Tan Zhifeng raised his hand and made a gesture: "Hold on a little longer."
"Well... I just want to say...Actually...From this, from this hole, looking on the bed, A Yuan looks pretty good." Zhuo Zhuo held Tan Zhifeng's arm tightly, and whispered to him: "But he How could it be so unlucky..."
Tan Zhifeng knew that staying with A Yuan in a dark room was a huge challenge for Zhuo Zhuo, and he could also feel the trembling of Zhuo Zhuo's little hand on his arm. "Don't be afraid." He patted her arm lightly: "You're right, A Yuan...it's really pretty. He wasn't bad before, right. And Xu Gan said that his soul has already disappeared. Very weak. So, he won't do anything to us."
"I'm not afraid." Zhuo Zhuo murmured and pulled his hand back: "Zhifeng, strictly speaking, shouldn't you two be rivals in love? Isn't it..."
Just when Tan Zhifeng was thinking that he had to refute Zhuo Zhuo no matter what, there was a slight noise from the courtyard gate outside.Tan Zhifeng hurriedly covered his scorching mouth tightly.But Zhuo Zhuo obviously also heard the movement, she desperately nodded to Tan Zhifeng, only then did Tan Zhifeng move his hand away.
"It's really here." Zhuo Zhuan, who regained his free breathing, took a breath and said in a low voice.
But the strange thing was that the sound outside was like a bird landing on the branch, and as the bird flapped its wings and flew away, the whole tree quickly returned to calm.
But Tan Zhifeng knew that the other party hadn't left yet.If he was not mistaken, the person who came had always been very cautious.Tan Zhifeng's hand was still on Zhuo Zhuo's arm, his spiritual power brought a sense of warmth and security to Zhuo Zhuo.The two leaned together like this, and fell into a long and endless uneasy wait.For a while, Tan Zhifeng even felt that he was going to become like A Yuan, a corpse frozen in time, but the next moment, the imperceptible breathing sound at the gate of the courtyard suddenly began to move slowly again, and he With light footsteps like a cat, he made a circle, jumped onto the courtyard wall, and in an instant came to the roof of the room where Tan Zhifeng and Zhuo Zhuo were waiting.
The tiles above his head hissed, and both Tan Zhifeng and Zhuo Zhuo Xin raised their throats.Tan Zhifeng secretly rejoiced that they hid in the cabinet. It seemed that the visitor was very cautious. He had to make sure that the person he was looking for was in the house, and that it was not a trap before he would do anything.
Tan Zhifeng smiled wryly and said: "I... I only know what that place is, but I don't know the exact direction of that place. However, there is someone who can lead the way."
Bai Yutang suddenly realized something, he looked at Tan Zhifeng suspiciously, took his hand and asked, "Zhifeng, how did you know?"
