Chapter 644 Is this a play?
Little Yining leaned his head back in boredom, muttering to himself: If I had known I would waste time here, I should have acted more aggressively in front of my father last night. Maybe he would really agree to let me go for a walk outside the city. If I'm lucky enough to meet little Cui Zhiyao, I can even pay money to ask Sister San to help her.
As for Brother Baozi, as soon as she returned home yesterday, she asked Qiuyi to tell him that today there would be a little beggar waiting at the city gate to pick up Shangguan Wenyuan when he entered the city.
Don't look at her small size, but her ability to do things is top notch (? ??_??)?
The kid's mind was wandering, and even his interest in watching the variety show had diminished a bit.
At this moment, the troupe owner, who was showing Wang and Pei around, suddenly cried out in panic for help, instantly interrupting the performance.
Little Yining immediately perked up and struggled to get off her mother's arms, but her mother held her tightly.
Fortunately, this sudden noise attracted everyone's attention. The acrobats who were performing just now ran to see what was going on. Even Wang Gungun did not forget to pull Lin Yinhu to eat melons.
Wan Niang was worried about the two little kids, so she followed with her daughter in her arms.
When the mother and daughter arrived at the place where the sound came from, they saw Wang Lin holding up a man covered in blood, and then throwing him to the ground like a dead dog.
The class owner standing next to him had a pale face and was being held in the arms of the expressionless Princess Pei Yi.
This is a treatment that even Xiao Yining has never enjoyed.
She didn't even bother to see what was happening on her second uncle's side. She stared at the couple in shock. There was only one sentence in her mind: My fellow villagers are really amazing. They can even hold such a fat man firmly.
What was even more unexpected was that just when she came to her senses and was about to go see her second uncle, a dozen masked Iron Eagle Guards suddenly broke into the yard of the circus troupe as if dropped from the sky, and quickly surrounded the bloody man whose life or death was unknown.
The Iron Eagle Guard, who was in the lead, bowed to Wang Lin and expressed his gratitude: "Thank you, General Zhenbei, for helping us capture this thief."
Wang Lin glanced at the man with a half-smile, and said meaningfully: "You Iron Eagle Guards are so idle that you are even rushing to do the work of the constables."
"To reply to General Zhenbei, this man secretly colluded with the Hu people and once served in the Iron Eagle Guard. That's why we tracked him all the way here just to clean up his mess." The Iron Eagle Guard replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.
Xiao Yining: ⊙_⊙, Iron Eagle Guard?
The kid looked at the bloody man again. He had been lifted up from the ground by the Iron Eagle Guards. His emaciated face appeared in front of everyone.
And in that man's eyes, there was boundless hatred, which made people shudder. The timid people were frightened and took a step back.
Little Yining was also frightened by the raging hatred and subconsciously shrank into her mother's arms.
She blinked her eyes and watched the man being taken away rudely by the Iron Eagle Guards. There was also a chattering Iron Eagle Guard who kicked the bloody man heavily to the ground.
"Commander Yu, you'd better not run away. It's very hard for our brothers to catch you every time."
Hearing this, Xiao Yining suddenly had an idea and quickly whispered to her mother: "Mom, the last time we met Grandpa Shangguan when his hand was cut off, the Iron Eagle Guard we met was also called Commander Yu!"
Wan Niang frowned and thought for a moment, then nodded to confirm: "Qing Jie'er is not mistaken, that person is indeed Commander Yu."
It’s really him!
Xiao Yining couldn't help but sigh in her heart that the world is really unpredictable. She looked at the man again, her eyes full of sighs.
At this moment, she didn't know if it was her illusion, but the bloody man's eyes under his messy hair seemed to glance towards where they were, and then he lowered his head in silence and was escorted away by the Iron Eagle Guards.
This little episode made everyone in the troupe look at each other in bewilderment, silently exchanging glances of dismay.
The class leader also trembled as he got off Pei Yi and bowed to Wang Lin repeatedly to express his gratitude: "Thank you very much, General Zhenbei, for saving me just now. Otherwise, I would have died here."
Wang Lin picked up a piece of rag and carefully wiped the blood stains on his hands. He looked around at the people who had gathered around him and said, "No need to thank them. Just let them put on a good show for my niece and let her enjoy it."
As he spoke, he came up to Wan Niang and stretched out his big hand, which exuded a strong bloody aura, towards the little baby in her arms.
Wan Niang: →_→
Xiao Yining: (￣-￣), don’t even wash
The mother and daughter looked at each other, and simultaneously revealed a look of disgust, then turned around decisively and walked away from this person without looking back.
Wang Lin: @_@, emotional progress -1
Pei Yi brushed off the dust that had just been stained, glanced at him lightly, and reminded him: "Brother Linzi, you are dirty."
Wang Lin checked his coat in surprise. He had been particularly careful not to get any blood on his body.
The variety show started again and the performance was still wonderful, but the spectators who came here specifically were no longer interested in it.
Wang Lin did not bring any clean clothes with him when he went out, so he was still looking for the places where he was stained, and occasionally he would look at Wan Niang and her daughter.
Wan Niang didn't even glance at her slovenly second brother, but listened carefully to the conversation between the kids beside her and the class owner.
The owner of the troupe was puzzled and said, "This is really strange. Since I knew that you were coming to watch the variety show, I checked it several times inside and out. This morning, I went to check every room one by one, for fear that something filthy might catch your eye."
"I don't know when the thief sneaked in. If General Zhenbei and this young master hadn't discovered it in time, my entire troupe would have been captured by the Iron Eagle Guards."
He spoke with lingering fear, and finally couldn't help but lower his voice and complain: "The Iron Eagle Guards don't care about the lives of us ordinary people."
The Iron Eagle Guard and the Inspectorate colluded with each other, one was responsible for confiscating property and the other was responsible for killing people. They were two notorious departments throughout the Great Zhou Dynasty.
When the four children heard this, they all fell into deep thought.
After many days of teaching, Lin Yinhu's mind has become much sharper than before. He asked Pei Yi thoughtfully: "Uncle Yi, could it be that someone deliberately put Commander Yu here, just waiting for you and Uncle Lin to find him?"
Pei Yi glanced at Wang Lin calmly and replied softly: "Whether this was a coincidence or deliberate, the target is ultimately us."
"Yanjing is really chaotic. Why are there always people who don't want us to live in peace!" Lin Yinhu couldn't help but complain.
The other three little ones nodded in agreement.
Even Lin Yinhu found this episode strange, let alone others.
It is inevitable that people will doubt his purpose. It is very likely that he wants Wang Lin to mistakenly believe that the man is the archer from the Duke of Chen's Mansion.
As Xiao Yining made this judgment, her eyes naturally fell on Wang Lin. She saw that he had just finished checking his coat and put it back on.
The little boy couldn't help but pursed his lips, thinking to himself: If Second Uncle hadn't known about Song Chengyou for a long time, with his brain, he would probably have been fooled.
Perhaps the little girl's gaze was too scorching, Wang Lin looked up hurriedly, and met the "affectionate" (looking at idiot) gaze of his little niece. Then he raised a bright, weird smile that looked morbid under the evil ghost mask.
Wang Lin: ( ^-^), emotional progress +1
Xiao Yining: ?_?, my second uncle’s brain is really not working properly sometimes!
