The younger brother is a biting leprechaun

Chen Yu saw the three people outside the door and walked over with a smile.He was fined to kneel all night last night, and he doesn't know when his father canceled the punishment.However, Chen Yu's complexion was pretty good, except for the marks on his face that were still swollen.

Ke Meng took out a half-finger-wide round box from her sleeve, handed it to Chen Yu, and said, "This is the plaster I prepared, it is very effective in reducing swelling and blood stasis, Mr. Chen just needs to apply it on the wound, and it will heal overnight." .”

Chen Yu took the box and nodded in thanks.Xu Qing's gaze passed over him, and landed on those busy servants.I don't know what was wrapped in the straw mat, there was more than one bulging one, and many servants dragged the same thing out one after another.Xu Qing's eyes were sharp, and he saw water spilling from one of the straw mats, leaving a faint... bloodstain on the ground.

"What are they doing?" Chen Yu noticed Xu Qing's probing eyes, Xu Qing didn't hide it, and asked loudly.

"This is..." Chen Yu's tone was a little hesitant, showing a bit distressed and inconvenient to say clearly.If someone else sees Chen Yu's appearance, he will definitely give him a step down, and they will talk about him from left to right, and don't go into it further.Xu Qing raised her eyebrows and walked over.He was invited back by Chen Yu, and now he is an honored guest of Chen Yan, the servants dare not obstruct his actions.Xu Qing easily lifted the straw mat, looked at the things inside, looking thoughtful.

Ke Meng felt that Xu Qing's actions were a bit impolite, and when she saw Wen Jifeng passing by, she also followed.A few black animals were wrapped in the straw mat in front of Xu Qing. The dead animals looked like wolves or dogs, with wet blood stains on their fur, emitting a not unpleasant but very pungent smell. smell.

"What is this?" Ke Meng's nose was already sensitive, but now she couldn't stand it even more.

Seeing that they had discovered it, Chen Yu sighed and approached, "I don't know what it is. The courtyard was suddenly attacked last night. If the housekeeper hadn't heard the noise and brought people over to kill them, I'm afraid I would have died last night. It's gone." Beside Chen Yu, inside the half-closed courtyard door, you can see that there are many more straw mats like this, and the ground is covered with clouds.Wen Ji heard the words and glanced at his senior brother, Xu Qing stroked his chin thoughtfully, but didn't speak.Even though these beasts were already corpses, they could still see the ferocious appearance before they were born. It was definitely not an easy task to take them down.But whether it was the sound of animals attacking or the sound of servants killing at home, neither they who lived far away nor Ke Meng who lived closer, didn't notice it at all.

No matter how you look at this matter, it is very strange, Xu Qing asked with a smile: "I wonder if the poor can come into the courtyard to have a look?"

Chen Yu didn't know what's so interesting about the dead bodies in the courtyard, but Xu Qing asked this way, so it's not easy to refuse: "Please."

There were more than [-] animal corpses piled up in the yard, and there was a large blood-stained vacant lot next to it. It seemed that some of them had been dealt with. It was conceivable how big the battle was last night.Fortunately, the aroma of peonies in the courtyard is very strong, and even Ke Meng feels that the pungent smell is a little lighter.Xu Qing took Wen Jifeng to look around, and when he turned to a corner that was just out of the sight of others, he took his junior brother's hand and wrote the character "Jia" on the palm of his hand, and after a while he wrote "Magic". ".A trace of surprise flashed in Wen Jifeng's eyes, looking at Xuqing's smiling eyes, he nodded towards him.

Seeing that the younger brother understood what he meant, the two looked around for a while and returned to the courtyard.Seeing the two of them approaching, Chen Yu asked, "What does the Taoist think?"

Wen Jifeng said, "These beasts in the courtyard are called 'Jia', also known as ground wolves, and they are a kind of half-demon and half-demon monsters." Diwolves live underground all year round. There are several burrows of different sizes, although they don't know where they lead, but it also proves that Xu Qing's judgment on these beasts is true.

Ke Meng and Chen Yu had never heard of such strange things. Following Wen Jifeng's explanation, they looked at the beasts on the ground with curiosity.

"Living underground, without seeing the sun all year round?" Ke Meng asked. Seeing Wen Jifeng nod his head, Ke Meng asked again, "The sky is not seen all year round, and the underground is full of yellow springs and soil. What do they do for a living and how do they survive?"

Wen Jifeng shook his head, Xuanchongguan's ancient books didn't describe much about ground wolves, and he never knew about them.

Xu Qing smiled lazily: "It's a pity that these ground wolves can't speak, otherwise Doctor Ke can ask them directly. However, I heard that there is a group called 'Wu Shang', who also live underground all year round. They should be able to understand human speech , if we meet at that time, Dr. Ke will probably be able to clear up his doubts."

Ke Meng looked at Wen Jifeng half-believingly, and seeing him nodding in agreement with Xu Qing's words, she was a little amazed at these things she had never seen before: "I thought some of the rumors and anecdotes recorded in the book were already very miraculous. There are things in the world that are more amazing and strange than what is said in the book. As my father said, 'What is written on paper is always shallow'." Ke Meng came out this time precisely because his father wanted him to travel to Kyushu and grow up. knowledge.Originally, he cared a little about his father not asking him about what he did, but now he finds this journey interesting.

"It's just that for some reason, these ground wolves sneaked into Chen's mansion." Ke Meng sighed casually.

Xu Qing said: "Maybe it's just the time for the ground wolf to court, riding the bright moonlight, we don't know if the flowers are blooming before the moon is setting."

Ke Meng: "..." Although she looked unreliable, she always felt that there was some truth to it.Chen Yu shook her head and smiled, and continued to order the servants to clean up the courtyard.Turning his back, he didn't notice a gleam of light in Xu Qing's eyes.

After the matter of the ground wolf was almost handled, Chen Yu realized later that it would be impolite to leave the three guests aside.After apologizing to the three of them, Chen Yu said: "The three of you might as well go down to my courtyard and sit down. It happens that the golden osmanthus in the courtyard has just bloomed, and the fragrance of the flowers just goes to our body."

The two of Xu Qing are absolutely necessary, and since early this morning, Ke Meng has become a follower behind the two of them, and followed.When Chen Yu brought the three of them to his own courtyard, the oil-paper umbrella in Wen Jifeng's hand suddenly moved.Ke Meng and Chen Yu were walking in front, so they didn't see it. Xu Qing saw this strange phenomenon, and knew that the courtyard Wen Jifeng and the others found yesterday turned out to be Chen Yu's courtyard.

With a bit of vigilance in their hearts, the four of them entered the garden.Sure enough, as Wen Jifeng and Chunru said, there are many servants and maids coming and going in the courtyard.Xuqing slandered, according to the appearance of a domestic servant at this corner, Chen Yu would be exposed to others even when taking a bath and going to the toilet, and there was no secret at all.Thinking of this, Xu Qing couldn't help feeling a little sympathetic towards Second Young Master Chen.

The sun is gradually rising, and the warm autumn sun is not too harsh. With the already cool autumn wind, it is just right to drink tea in the sun.There was a stone table and chairs in the courtyard, Chen Yu led the three of them to sit down, and the maid served tea and snacks soon.

It was only then that Ke Meng noticed the oil-paper umbrella in Wen Jifeng's hand, and asked, "Could this umbrella be a magic weapon?" The weather was cloudy and rainy yesterday, and Wen Jifeng looked very ordinary with an umbrella; but it was clearly sunny today, Wen Jifeng was still holding an umbrella, which made people feel a little strange.

Wen Jifeng's hand holding the umbrella froze and did not answer.Xu Qing noticed Wen Jifeng's embarrassment, and said: "I watched the stars last night, and it should be a rainy day today. Whoever wants to learn is not good, but he saw it wrong."

Ke Meng: "..."

Chen Yu kindly reminded: "Daoist Xu Qing, there were no stars in the sky last night."

Xu Qing: "..." Some people are annoying because they are always extraordinarily smart when they shouldn't be.

Seeing the mockery in Ke Meng's eyes, Xu Qing coughed dryly twice without any excuse.His eyes wandered around randomly, and he saw a stone well exposed behind an osmanthus tree in the courtyard, but the mouth of the well was sealed, and a stone the size of an adult's arms was compacted on it.

"What's the matter with this well?"

Chen Yu only thought that Xu Qing was embarrassed for a while, so he started a conversation, and replied: "Mother invited a Feng Shui master to look at it, saying that the location of the well is not good, and it damaged the aura of the yard, so it was blocked."

Xu Qing nodded, but her eyes glanced at the tip of the umbrella in Wen Jifeng's hand with a light flash of light.

"I wonder if I can open this well?" Xu Qing asked.

Before Chen Yu could answer, Ke Meng said first, "Daoist Xuqing, why are you so curious about everything? Could it be that watching the stars last night told you what treasure is hidden in this well?" Ke Meng said With a bit of ridicule, he couldn't help feeling that he underestimated Xu Qing.

Xu Qing is not annoyed at being young because she can't speak, but she still feels that she should teach this little doctor a lesson.But before he could speak, Wen Jifeng spoke for him first: "Brother naturally has his reasons for doing so."

Wen Jifeng seldom speaks to people like this. Although he is usually indifferent, he speaks extremely politely.Xu Qing glanced at her junior with great interest, her lips curled up slightly.Ke Meng's youthful heart, hearing what Wen Jifeng said, felt a little unhappy.Although he thought before that he wanted to learn something from Wen Jifeng, it was only after Xuqing's immediately debunked lie that he was a little bit unsure about the two of them.

Chen Yu rounded up the situation and said: "I said yesterday that as long as you are helping the lower gang, the Taoist leader can speak out. It's just that if you want to open the mouth of the well, you will inevitably find a few craftsmen. It will probably be delayed until tomorrow, I don't know. Daoist can't wait."

Xu Qing nodded and smiled: "Poverty can understand Mr. Chen's difficulties, but such a small wellhead doesn't need any craftsmen. Now that Mr. Chen has accepted, Poverty can do it by himself."

Speaking of Xu Qing, without waiting for Chen Yu to say anything else, the long sword behind her was unsheathed, and the sword shadow flickered, and stabbed towards the big stone at the mouth of the well.

Xu Qing's posture was straightened, the back came first, grasped the hilt of the sword, and with four or two strokes of force, pushed the boulder away.The stone fell on the ground next to it with a muffled sound, crushing some flowers and plants.
