Riding the Pheonix Chapter 324: Hands on

Hou Dajiang originally just tentatively suggested that several caravans were about to arrive at Gaotang, but he heard that the road was not very peaceful, and if the goods were robbed, the construction schedule might be delayed. Unexpectedly, the young master didn't say anything and asked Mr. Ning to take care of him.

The simple agreement made Master Hou feel extremely complicated.

Even in the den of thieves, his suggestions are always doubted by the brainless robbers.

Anyway, Ning Xiu set off like this.

Hou Dajiang watched him leave the racecourse with his own eyes. Half a day later, the bandit responsible for monitoring him reported that he had indeed gone to the county seat.

Jiang Hou felt relieved and asked Yang Shu. Anyway, the materials would not arrive for a few days, and the Dragon Boat Festival was just around the corner. Should he rest for a few days and let the workers go back?

Yang Shu agreed again.

So the workers happily went back to celebrate the festival with their wages, and the racecourse was half empty.

Master Hou counted his fingers.

There are three groups of people left. Among the contract workers there are many old, weak, women and children with little fighting ability; the herdsmen can afford swords, but they are not strong in force; the most difficult ones are the dozens of generals.

Ask them to bring more people, at least 300 people, to be more confident.

When the time comes, the road to the county seat will be blocked so that the defenders cannot be alerted.

Master Hou considered each item one by one, taking the time to give instructions to the somewhat vicious-looking laborer.

When it finally came time to take action, Lao Li was so excited that he obeyed his words.

The Dragon Boat Festival is here.

Limited conditions meant that there was no dragon boat race to watch, but the young master decided to reward the herdsmen and contract workers who had worked hard for two months.

So that night, a bright bonfire was lit in front of the construction site, and all kinds of ingredients were served in unlimited quantities. You can take whatever you want. If you can't wait for the kitchen workers, you can also make it yourself.

The most important thing is wine, which is not usually provided, but today we let them drink it.

Mingwei didn't join in the fun. She sat on the porch, eating rice dumplings and talking to Xiaotong.

Xiaotong looked at the people laughing with envy, and she wanted to have fun like them.

Mingwei said sincerely: "This is for your own good. Don't go anywhere tonight, just follow Duofu."

Xiaotong didn’t understand: “Why?”

"Because it's dangerous tonight." Duofu stuffed the remaining rice dumplings into his mouth and answered her.

Xiaotong was confused: "Is it the one you are talking about..."

Ming smiled and said, "It's good that you know."

Xiaotong stopped talking and ate rice dumplings quietly.

It was almost time, the herdsmen and contract workers dispersed one after another, and Yang Shu returned to the house slightly drunk.

Mingwei stood up and helped him walk into the house.

The ferocious-looking laborer stared at the waist of the girl next to the young master and took a fierce bite of the mutton.

Yang Shu stretched out his hand to cover Mingwei's waist and whispered: "I really want to gouge out his eyeballs right now!"

Ming Wei chuckled: "Are you jealous?"

"Hmph! What's so good about this kind of person's jealousy?" Yang Shu dismissed it.

It's not that I'm jealous, it's just that it's not a happy thing when the girl you like is coveted by others.

"Don't worry, you can touch it, he will only look at it." Ming slightly turned his head and glanced at the laborer from the corner of his eye. The coldness in his eyes seemed to be looking at a dead man.

It was disgusting for her to be stared at as a fat person these days.

Unexpectedly, a slight cough came from beside him. When he looked up, Yang Shu's ears turned red again.

Huh? She rolled her eyes, thought about what she had said before, and smiled.

Because it’s “tactile”? This time she really just said it casually, without any intention of teasing.

The door opened and she followed.

"Go and take a shower, you smell like alcohol."

"Oh." Yang Shu obediently went to the back to take a shower.

When he came back from washing, Mingwei turned around and blew out the candle.

"What are you doing?" In the darkness, Yang Shu's voice was a little tight.

"Let them think we are busy so we can take action!"

Busy...

Good connotation...

Yang Shu didn't know if Mingwei, who said this carelessly, was aware of it, but when he heard it, his thoughts were indeed flowing.

But today is not the time for daydreaming.

Mingwei sat at the table and put her fingers on her flute, her vigilance heightened to the extreme.

Her calmness swept away Yang Shu's thoughts, took out her sword from the shark leather umbrella, and waited quietly.

Time passed little by little, and the racecourse became completely silent, with only a few vigilant generals patrolling quietly.

Master Hou also blew out the candle, closed his eyes, and sat at the table, tapping the table again and again, counting the time.

When there was a gentle knocking at the window, he suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes shining in the darkness.

Success or failure, it all depends on this!

He opened the window and asked in a low voice: "Is everyone asleep?"

Lao Li's vague answer came from over there: "Well, everyone is almost asleep, only the night watchman is still awake."

"Where is the young master?"

There was a trace of jealousy in this person's voice: "I entered the house with the beauty and didn't come out. The lights were all turned off."

Master Hou nodded: "Let's do it!"

"Okay."

Lao Li disappeared quickly, and Master Hou quietly walked out of the door, walking silently in the dark night.

He took out several spiritual talismans and pasted them one by one on the positions of his beloved.

Finally, stand in the right position, pinch your fingers and say: "——Get up!"

In the night, a red light that was so dark that it was almost impossible to distinguish came from all directions~IndoMTL.com~ and surrounded the racecourse tightly.

From this moment on, the racecourse will be isolated, and anything that happens here will not be noticed by the outside world.

This is why he came to apply for the job of master craftsman.

The construction of the house is completely supervised by him, and he can easily set up formations.

But with that Xuanshi around, he didn't dare to be too conspicuous. Now, the Xuanshi he feared the most has been transferred away from the mountain, and he can finally show off his formation!

At the same time, Mingwei smiled softly: "Let's do it."

Yang Shu stood up: "Let's go!"

In front of the sentry post, the laborer and his two accomplices quietly reached a very convenient location.

"Who?" I don't know if their footsteps were too loud, but there was a shout from the other side.

Lao Li made a quick decision: "Do it!"

One of the accomplices blew out a poisonous needle and hit him squarely. Lao Li and another accomplice rushed forward, covering each other's mouths tightly, and at the same time showed their blades and wiped their necks.

Lao Li breathed a sigh of relief and thought to himself, he thought he was so powerful before, but it turned out that the general family was just like that, and he solved one of them so easily.

His accomplice felt something was wrong in his hand, so he picked up the body to confirm, but what he picked up was a flimsy piece of paper.

"Brother, something is wrong!" The accomplice's voice changed.

Laoli turned his head and looked, and was shocked.

The person whose neck they wiped was not a general at all, but a paper man!

"Not good!" Lao Li's intuition as a bandit leader told him that things had changed.

But it was too late.

A voice rang out: "You are so brave! We, the Yang family, dare to move!"

A group of warriors will emerge from behind the sentry post and look at them playfully. ...
