Tangled

Filled with anticipation, Mu Chengze and Shen Qiqi glanced at each other when they finally got such an answer, feeling a little unacceptable.

"Ash, can't you be more specific?"

"Even if you don't help me, you should think about my cousin. Look at her, but she is looking forward to it."

It's not that Gu Tingshu didn't know that she wanted to hear it, but speaking of it, it wasn't very friendly to him.

He still didn't want to say it, Mu Chengze gritted his teeth, secretly poked Shen Qiqi with his hand, and blinked when she looked over.

After successfully receiving his meaning, Shen Qiqi moved towards Gu Tingshu.

"Cousin, what I want to hear, just tell me."

Her Wu Nong's soft words sound soft, but they are extremely lethal. At least for Gu Tingshu, he can't resist even if he tries his best.

He gave her some pastries from the package and motioned her to eat and listen.

"When I went to fetch water, I happened to meet bandits. I didn't want to make trouble, so I gave them the money."

"When I got up to leave, a third head came and asked me to stay, saying that there was still a lack of head in the village."

When he said this, he stopped, and Mu Chengze was very puzzled, "You haven't even fought against them, so they know that you are good at martial arts? Do you still want to let you stay in charge?"

Doesn't this bandit have a bright mind? Although Ashu looks like a powerful person, he has to fight his hands before making a decision.

Shen Qiqi was also very curious, why did the other party leave him as the head of the house as soon as they opened their mouths?

Both of them had the same puzzled look in their eyes, looking forward to it, but Gu Tingshu was a little reluctant to say it.

After waiting for a while, they were all still tilting their heads and their bodies were still the same as before. Gu Tingshu bit the tip of his tongue before continuing:
"They are the three heads of the family, and they are women."

As soon as these words came out, they fell into a strange silence.

The eyes of the two of them gradually changed, and Gu Tingshu knew this would be the result, so he quickly got up to check the carriage.

After recovering from the shock, Mu Chengze endured and endured, but in the end he couldn't control himself, and burst out laughing with a "puchi".

"I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, there is still a time when Ash is coveted."

"Although the third master doesn't know how to read people's faces, he has excellent eyesight. A handsome man like Ash is more than enough to be a master of the village."

Although Shen Qiqi didn't laugh out loud, she endured it with difficulty. She bit her lip and pinched the backs of her hands with her hands to keep her voice from overflowing.

Seeing her struggling to endure, Gu Tingshu kindly said: "Laugh if you want to, don't hold back."

He was so considerate, Shen Qiqi felt embarrassed to laugh, she cleared her throat and signaled Mu Chengze to stop laughing too.

Needless to say, they knew what happened next, he must have disagreed, and the third master didn't know how to look at people's faces, so he made him anxious, so he went on a killing spree.

They are all bandits who are used to killing and stealing goods, so if they are killed, they will be killed, which is not a big deal.

"Killed, killed, and took money, why did Ashu send a message?"

Gu Tingshu tied the horse rope firmly and replied casually.

"I only took a little of the money, and there was a lot of it. I hid it all and let them transport it back."

It was also because of this that he came back so late.

They have already used Yunzi, and things are absolutely indispensable.

Mu Chengze was surprised, the scale of the bandit den shouldn't be that big, why is there so much money?

There is no big city near here, and it is not an official road. Logically speaking, it would not be possible to grab so many things.

"Ash didn't ask them, where did these things come from?"

Gu Tingshu patted away, came over and took a sip of water, and then said slowly: "They are all dead."

He found the money after everyone died, but he found it strange and couldn't help it.

Mu Chengze didn't expect him to strike so swiftly that he didn't even leave a single one alive.

It seems that the third in command made him very angry.

"Ashu, what does the third head look like?"

After receiving a cold look, Mu Chengze understood, "The third master must be extremely ugly, otherwise Ah Shu wouldn't be so angry."

If he looked like his cousin, then Ashu might just follow him, let alone beat him to death.

"Pack up, let's go."

Although it is in the wild now, the fire is so big that it might attract passers-by to check it out, so they had better leave earlier.

Now the inside is still big, Shen Qiqi was carried into the carriage, but she didn't sit in it.

There was still someone lying in it, although she fell into a coma, but the space was so small that she was really embarrassed to stay in it.

She was sitting outside with a hat on her head and a fan in her hand, fanning it from time to time.

"If I want to come here again in the future, I must come when it's cold, and I won't come again when it's so hot."

Mu Chengze was walking on the other side, the carriage covered the sun for him, but he was still full of complaints.

It was also because of their miscalculation that they were delayed for many days, otherwise they would not have to hurry.

Sitting in the post station, eating cold sugar water, and eating two pieces of iced fruit, that day is not to mention how comfortable it is.

"What kind of ice drink does cousin like to eat?"

In the scorching summer, there are many cold drinks in the city of Kyoto. He has eaten many, but his favorite is ice and snow licorice soup.

Serve such a bowl on a hot day, drink it slowly, and your body and mind will cool down.

That feeling is really too comfortable, as if a gust of cool wind passes through the body.

"I'm not in good health, and I haven't been able to eat these since I was a child."

Shen Qiqi smiled and didn't say much.

Ice is extremely difficult to store, and even a big family like the Hou Mansion doesn't have much ice every year.

She is a person who has been almost forgotten, how could the old lady give her ice.

Gu Tingshu took a look at her, but didn't point out the matter, he just wanted to buy it for her to try in the next place.

"That's a pity." Mu Chengze sighed.

After pausing for a while, he said again: "You used to not be able to eat snacks at your age, but now that you are in much better health, you should be able to eat them."

"After you go back, someone will make it for you to eat. If you have nothing to do, you can drink freely when it's hot."

"When you first start eating, don't be greedy, or your stomach will hurt."

He spoke in a doting tone, and even tapped the back of her hand with a fan as he spoke, acting as if he was really an elder brother.

Shen Qiqi was in a daze for a while, and then responded with a smile.

She withdrew the hand that was touched, and rubbed it lightly twice as if inadvertently.

Gu Tingshu kept his eyes on her. Although her secretive movements avoided Mu Chengze's eyes, he caught them in his eyes.

He tightened his grip on the whip, his eyes were heavy, but he didn't say anything.

"Ash, let's wake up the people in the carriage. With him around, my cousin won't be able to have a good rest."
