MTL - I Have Unparalleled Comprehension-Chapter 134 Very useful Ye Zi (8000)
Chapter 134 Ye Zi, who is very useful (8000)
Visiting the Ou family?
Ye Zi was stunned on the spot when he heard what Xu Bai said.
After a while, he hesitated and said: "But... shall we go so aboveboard?"
To do this, you have to find a time when the moon is dark and the wind is high, and then put on a night clothes, and go quietly, right?
Ye Zi was a little puzzled, could they find anything useful in such an aboveboard past?
"Of course we should go there aboveboard. Sometimes an open investigation is better than an unannounced visit." Xu Bai opened the door and said, "Let's go, hurry up."
Ye Zi was in a daze. Although she covered her face with a veil, her big eyes were full of doubts.
But after Xu Bai said so, she didn't ask any more questions, and followed Xu Bai out the door.
After going out, Xu Bai took Ye Zi and found a small stall for dinner.
Although Ye Zi was covered with a veil, her soft and charming temperament did not change, making Xu Bai the focus.
After eating, the two hurried towards Ou's house.
During the whole process, Xu Bai didn't appear to be in a hurry, but seemed to be shopping.
Ye Zi was even more puzzled, she felt that Xu Bai didn't come to Xingshi to inquire about his crimes, but he came here as a tourist.
But she knows very well that it is enough for her to play the role of little transparent, and it will be troublesome if she manages too much.
Not long after, the two arrived at Ou's house.
As a big family in Taotu Mansion, the Ou family is naturally quite rich, even the stone lions at the door are much more delicate than those of other households.
At the door, two servants were on duty with sticks in their hands.
Seeing Xu Bai and Ye Zi approaching, one of the servants stepped forward and asked, "What are you doing here?"
After taking this job, the servant is also dedicated to his duty. Now, the servant must ask clearly about the situation.
Especially seeing the black knife on Xu Bai's waist full of cracks, the servant can see the difference between this knife and knows that Xu Bai is not easy to mess with.
"Let me tell you that Xu Bai came to see Patriarch Ou." Xu Bai said slowly while holding the black knife in his hand.
Ye Zi shrank behind Xu Bai, without saying a word, rolled his eyes, wondering what he was thinking.
The servant was slightly taken aback, but still asked Xu Bai to wait here, and went in to report.
After about a stick of incense, the servant came out from the inside, bowed respectfully and said: "The head of the family said that he has been feeling cold recently, and he is worried that Mr. Xu will be infected, so he can't see Mr. Xu."
Xu Bai narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard this.
"If I have to go in?"
"Master Xu, don't make it difficult for me. If Master Xu insists on going in, I can only sue for a crime of breaking and entering." The servant's tone was quite helpless, but he insisted on guarding the job.
"You go and sue." Xu Bai raised his foot and walked inside.
The servant hesitated for a moment, trying to stop Xu Bai.
But before he stepped forward, he heard Xu Bai's next sentence.
"How much money do you have a month, as for risking your life?"
With a faint sentence, the two servants looked at the black knife on Xu Bai's waist, and after a moment of hesitation, they still didn't dare to stop it.
Yeah, it’s only such a small amount of money a month, so there’s no need to risk your life.
Jia Ding thought so, he could only pretend to be ineffective in stopping him.
Xu Bai came to the door and pushed it open.
The gate made a slight sound, and inside the gate was a huge yard.
Large families like these styles. The larger the area, the more they can show their wealth.
Xu Bai took Ye Zi and walked in directly, followed by two helpless servants.
With this movement, it naturally attracted the attention of many servants and maids.
After a while, Xu Bai was stopped by someone.
An old man dressed as a housekeeper stood in front of Xu Bai, blocked Xu Bai's way, and said with a serious expression: "Master Xu, my master is not feeling well, let's come back another day. If I go back now, I can pretend I haven't seen it before." .”
Although the housekeeper bent over, his tone was extremely rigid. Obviously, he wanted to stop Xu Bai completely.
"I lost an important thing in my secret post. Now that I have found this place, if you stop me, you are against the court." Xu Bai said lightly.
He began to call himself an official, so naturally he used an official to overwhelm others.
The old housekeeper smiled and said: "Master Xu was joking. The Yinyi Station where Master Xu is located is located in Yunlai Mansion. It is far away from here. How could it be possible to find out here?"
"I said yes, yes." Xu Bai said: "Your status is too low to cooperate with the official to speak. If you stop me, the official will not be sympathetic."
As soon as the words fell, the old butler smiled even brighter.
"Master Xu, you are breaking into a private house..."
"Snapped!"
Xu Bai withdrew his hand, looked at the old butler's swollen face, and said, "Smiley face, it's time to hit."
"You!" The old housekeeper touched his face, his eyebrows were erected, and he was about to attack.
Xu Bai interrupted: "If you stop me from investigating the case, you are against the imperial court. It is already extremely magnanimous for me to give you a slap in the face."
As soon as these words came out, the old butler wanted to have a fit, but forced himself down again.
At this time, a slightly weak voice came out.
"Master Xu has a noble status, so how can he haggle over every detail with a servant, Ah Fu, bring Master Xu in."
No one is seen, only voices are heard.
is a master.
Xu Bai squinted his eyes, thinking to himself: "Pretending to be so weak, but being able to make the voice travel so far, clearly came with me."
The old butler named Ah Fu heard the voice, slightly dazed, and quickly reacted, holding back the humiliation in his heart, and said: "Master Xu, please."
"I still like your rebellious look, you recover." Xu Bai joked.
Ah Fu's body trembled slightly, but he tried his best to suppress it. He didn't refute Xu Bai's words, but turned his head and began to lead the way.
Even the Patriarch had spoken, Ah Fu naturally had no other words to say, and walked quietly.
I was slapped in the face just now, so I can only admit it.
Ah Fu took Xu Bai and the two of them around the winding road, and finally came to an extremely luxurious house.
He stepped forward and knocked on the door: "Master, the person has already arrived."
"Go down first, just let Master Xu and the others come in."
In the room, there was a weak voice.
Ah Fu bent down, did not speak to Xu Bai, turned around and left directly, as if staying here for a while would make him feel particularly uncomfortable.
"Come on, go in and take a look." Xu Bai walked to the door and pushed it open.
Ye Zi followed behind Xu Bai, and the two walked directly into the house.
Compared with the luxury outside the door, the inside of the room is also extremely luxurious.
Whether it is the size of the ornaments or the surrounding layout, they all look very particular, making people feel very comfortable at first glance.
In the center of the room, there is a reclining chair. A middle-aged man is lying on the reclining chair. The middle-aged man is wearing a long gown. Although it is just an ordinary style, he is extremely particular about the material and workmanship.
At this moment, the middle-aged man's face was extremely pale, as if he had a serious illness and hadn't completely recovered.
"I occasionally feel sick, so I can't get up to greet you. I hope Mr. Xu will not blame you." Patriarch Ou held the handle of the reclining chair with both hands, trying to get up, but halfway through, he lay down weakly.
This action is full of two words, weak.
No matter in terms of form or demeanor, there is a feeling of recovering from a serious illness.
"Patriarch Ou, please don't get up. Since you are already sick, you should rest well. Xu just wants to meet Patriarch Ou and discuss some things by the way." Xu Bai waved his head very politely, indicating that he should not get up to greet him. Taking Ye Zi along, he found a seat and sat down, looking familiar.
"Master Xu is here, what are you talking about?" Patriarch Ou's face was still pale, but after hearing what Xu Bai said, he didn't get up, just lying on the recliner, and asked weakly.
Whether it is in details or other aspects, it is flawless, and no abnormalities are noticed.
Xu Bai was about to speak when he suddenly moved his nose and smelled an unusual smell.
This smell is very pungent, as if something is burnt, although it is very faint, it can be smelled very clearly.
"It's broad daylight, is the Ou's house still burning?" Xu Bai put his elbows on the table, and said with great interest, "Has it almost burned?"
Last night, Ye Zi once said that the Ou family was collecting his information for the purpose of dealing with him, and now that he smells it again, it is obvious that the process has been almost done.
"I happened to be packing some things today, and some of the remaining waste needed to be burned. It happened to happen that Mr. Xu came over. It was really rude." Patriarch Ou explained with a bleak smile.
Hearing this, Ye Zi parted her red lips slightly, and wanted to speak, but was stopped by Xu Bai's eyes.
Since the other party is so calm, they must have dealt with the follow-up matters, and it is useless to go out to find them.
But it doesn't matter, he didn't come here to find these things, but to have other plans.
"Let's talk about something serious. I'm here this time, and I want to borrow someone from Patriarch Ou." Xu Bai said.
Although Patriarch Ou maintained the posture of lying on his back, after hearing Xu Bai's words, he frowned tightly, not understanding the meaning of Xu Bai's words.
"Who does Master Xu want to borrow?"
"Just that old housekeeper named Ah Fu just now, I see that he still has some rights in the house, and it must be of great use to me." Xu Bai thought for a while and said.
"Your Majesty, I don't know what is the use of Mr. Xu borrowing Ah Fu?" Patriarch Ou pondered.
Xu Bai pretended to be enlightened, and explained: "It's like this. I'm not familiar with everything when I first came here. I need a knowledgeable person to help me show me the way, so I found you. As for why I only look for you, it is because the owner of the Jiqiao Pavilion introduced you."
Speaking of which, he even lifted the Jiqiao Pavilion out.
The head of the Ou family fell silent when he heard the words.
This request was too abrupt, he didn't understand what trick Xu Bai was playing, so he didn't agree easily.
Xu Bai didn't speak either, just sat in his seat, waiting for a reply.
He didn't say a word, but he believed that Patriarch Ou would definitely reply to him next time.
Ye Zi had a trace of doubt in her soft and beautiful eyes like stars.
She was a little confused as to what Xu Bai's intention was, but she knew that Xu Bai had already started his own plan.
As people trained by the Ye family, they are very particular about this aspect, but they just obediently stayed aside, didn't say a word, and let Xu Bai decide.
After a while, Patriarch Ou sighed, finally broke the silence, and slowly spoke the next words.
"The old housekeeper and I have known each other for many years and have been doing our best for the family. If Mr. Xu wants to find someone who knows the way, I can make another arrangement." Ou Jiazhu said.
Exiting this sentence really blocked Xu Bai's words, and there was no reason to borrow it, whether it was from the world or other aspects.
But no matter who Xu Bai is, there is no reason, and you can find a reason.
"I don't need other people, I want him to help me lead the way." Xu Bai shook his head and said.
Master Ou smiled wryly: "Master Xu, you are making things difficult for me. If this is the case, I don't need to borrow it."
Xu Bai said, "You can try it."
In these words, there is a hint of threat.
Ye Zi's eyes widened. She didn't expect Xu Bai to forcefully want to lead someone. She thought it was for other reasons, but she didn't expect to be so tough.
Patriarch Ou looked directly at Patriarch Ou, and Xu Bai did not show any weakness, and also looked directly at Patriarch Ou.
The two just stared at each other for a while, and after a while, Master Ou's tone became serious.
"Master Xu, you are provoking our family. Is it possible that I will not agree to you, and you still want to destroy our family in broad daylight?" Patriarch Ou said in a deep voice.
"I'm an upright person, and I don't know how to do those things, but I can't guarantee that there won't be some young people who secretly trip you up, then I don't know." Xu Bairuo pointedly said.
Master Ou almost gritted his teeth and said: "Borrow! But before that, he has to hand over a lot of things in his hands. How about I send it to Mr. Xu's residence in the afternoon?"
"Okay." Xu Bai stood up from his seat, stretched, looked at Ye Zi, and said, "Let's go, let's go back."
"Huh?" Ye Zi let out an ah, confused, but still followed Xu Bai and went out the door.
The two of them didn't even have much communication with Patriarch Ou, let alone say goodbye, and just left.
When Xu Bai and the others left Oufu, Patriarch Ou's complexion suddenly became gloomy, the original paleness disappeared, replaced by a normal color.
He got up from his seat, looked in the direction outside the door, and let out a cold laugh.
At this time, he doesn't look like a sick child, he is more vigorous than normal people.
"Okay, that's great." Patriarch Ou clenched his fists tightly, his eyes bursting with anger, like a dog being cornered.
"Ah Fu!"
He yelled, loosened his clenched fists, the anger in his eyes was fading, trying to calm himself down.
Outside the room, Ah Fu bowed his body and walked in from the door.
"Master, I know everything, just let me go."
Ah Fu's right face still has red palm prints, and the face swollen by Xu Bai's beating looks asymmetrical and ridiculous.
"You said he found something when he came this time?" Patriarch Ou returned to the recliner, gently rocked the recliner, and closed his eyes.
Ah Fu thought for a moment, and said: "Master, the villain thinks that we haven't exposed anything. He can't possibly know our purpose. Could it be that he really just wants me to be a guide?"
Patriarch Ou opened his eyes with serious eyes: "You can't underestimate this person. On the surface, Xu Bai looks harmless to humans and animals. What he did just now is actually showing us a phenomenon."
"He slapped you and used the so-called official authority to oppress me, just to tell us that he is a fool who only knows how to exercise official authority."
"But it is such a wine bag and rice bag that wiped out all the people in the Zimu Mansion. This person must not be underestimated."
Ah Fu nodded again and again, saying yes, but didn't say anything else.
He is waiting for Patriarch Ou's order. Since the opponent has already made a move, Patriarch Ou must fight back, otherwise he will be beaten passively.
Master Ou pondered for a long time, and finally made a decision: "Follow him, don't say anything against him, just see what he wants to do, and don't show any lies. Before we deal with him, we must know what he wants to do. What."
"Yes, the villain is going to where he is now." Ah Fu nodded and was about to leave immediately.
"Wait." Ou Jiazhu said: "I just told him that you have to hand over the things in your hands, and it won't be too late if you go later."
"Yes!" Ah Fu replied again, and left the room after answering.
After Ah Fu left, the room fell into silence. Master Ou sat on the recliner, swaying back and forth with the swing of the recliner, his eyes were slightly focused, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
…
the other side.
Xu Bai brought Ye Zi back to the inn.
As soon as he opened the door of the inn, Ye Zi stared at Xu Bai with a puzzled face, but didn't make a sound, biting his lower lip tightly, his curiosity ready to emerge.
"Okay, don't look at me with that kind of eyes, just ask what you want to ask." Xu Bai sat on the chair and put the burden behind his back aside.
Ye Zi stared at Xu Bai with big watery eyes, organized his words, and asked, "My lord, I don't understand why you asked his old butler to guide us?"
She thought that there would be a big fight this time, but she didn't expect that the two sides were acting on each other, except for one thing, she couldn't figure out why Xu Bai wanted the old housekeeper as a guide.
Isn't this bringing the enemy with you?
"I don't think everyone in the Ou family is aware of the secrets. This old butler's status is not small, and he will know a lot." Xu Bai said.
Ye Zi rolled his eyes, moved his lotus steps lightly, walked to Xu Bai's side, and asked, "My lord, are you sure to reveal the truth from the old butler's mouth?"
"That depends on whether you can do it." Xu Bai raised his head and said: "The opportunity to prove your usefulness has come. Can your ability be used to extract information?"
Ye Zi was taken aback for a moment, then quickly realized, bowed his head and said: "I only have the ability of the sixth rank, if the old butler is stronger than me, I have to knock him unconscious before I can try, and it may not be successful .”
Xu Bai frowned and said, "Why do you have to be knocked unconscious?"
"Only when he falls into a coma, is he in an unconscious state, and I can guide him with strange music." Ye Zi explained.
She is a crafty voice teacher, of course she understands the various characteristics of this profession, as well as the method of performing it, and also knows when is the time with the highest success rate.
What Xu Bai said just now made her understand that this is a good opportunity to show herself. If she shows well, she needs to stay. If she shows poorly, she doesn’t know what the result will be.
Recalling Xu Bai's murderous aura last night, Ye Zi couldn't help shivering.
"If that's the case, it's easy to handle." Xu Bai touched his chin, nodded and said, "It's just a coma. There are many ways to make a person unconscious."
Actually, his real purpose for today's trip is here.
Xu Bai knew very well that it was definitely not just the Ou family who had to deal with him.
After all, Zimu Mansion was full of difficulties, let alone Tao Tu Mansion?
The closer to the capital, the greater the difficulty.
He has a guess, in case the Ou family colludes with other forces, can they follow the Ou family and follow the vine?
If he really touched the big melon, it would be excellent news for him, and it would be much better than having no clue now.
"Don't worry, son, I will definitely do my best and never let you down." Ye Zi nodded vigorously, his face full of determination.
Although the time we have been together is short, Ye Zi can tell that if Xu Bai really approves, he won't have any worries.
She is very strong when it comes to people, especially when it comes to men.
"If I stay by Mr. Xu's side, won't I have completed the mission of the family, and won't be sold like a commodity?" Ye Zi thought to himself.
Of course, she also knew very well in her heart that if she wanted to really stay, she had to show her ability, not the so-called beauty.
"My lord, let's take a rest first, I guess they will come over in the afternoon." Ye Zi walked slowly behind Xu Bai, stretched out his jade fingers, put them on Xu Bai's shoulder, and kneaded them gently.
Xu Bai narrowed his eyes, only feeling that his shoulders were very comfortable.
Of course, his heart is clear, he is just enjoying the massage.
Everything is waiting for the old butler to arrive.
Taking out the Unknown Sword Manual, Xu Bai watched the progress bar while enjoying Ye Zi's pinching his shoulders and beating his legs. He always felt that he had already lived an extremely corrupt life.
Seeing Ye Zi who came from behind to the front, bent down, and squatted beside him and beat his legs, especially the curve of the waist and back, Xu Bai sighed secretly.
"No wonder those cadres can't stand the test..."
…
Time gradually passed, and in the blink of an eye it was already afternoon, when there was a knock on the door.
"Master Xu, Ah Fu is here to report."
At this time, Ah Fu's voice seemed much humbler, without the arrogance of the morning. Obviously, after receiving the reminder from Master Ou, he already understood what he was going to do.
"Open the door." Xu Bai said.
"Yes." Ye Zi came to the door, opened it, and let A Fu come in from the outside.
Ah Fu walked in from the door with a bowed body, keeping his head down, looking extremely respectful.
"The villain has offended me a lot this morning, and I hope Mr. Xu will forgive me." Ah Fu apologized as soon as he entered the door.
Xu Bai waved his sleeves, and said generously: "Let's stop gossiping, let's go, follow me to a place."
Ah Fu was taken aback for a moment, and wanted to ask where it was, but seeing that Xu Bai didn't like him, he obviously didn't want him to know, so he could only keep silent.
Xu Bai put the burden on his back and went out the door.
Ye Zi followed closely behind Xu Bai. Seeing this scene, Ah Fu could only grit his teeth and follow.
At this time, the sun has not yet set, and there are still many people walking casually on the street, and the vendors on both sides have not completely dispersed.
Xu Bai led them all the way out of the range of Taotu Mansion, and came to a wilderness.
Along the way, Ah Fu didn't speak, but secretly became vigilant in his heart, always feeling that something bad happened.
Running to the wilderness at this time, is Xu Bai planning to do something?
But after thinking about it carefully, Ah Fu felt that it was unlikely. After all, he came out to help him in a legitimate way. If he did something, he would definitely not be able to explain to the Ou family.
Thinking of this, he calmed down a little.
But sometimes, things tend to go in the opposite direction.
"It's almost there, right here." Xu Bai stopped, and drew out the black knife at his waist.
The next moment, the black knife burst into hundreds of fragments, surrounding Ah Fu.
Ah Fu was stunned on the spot, and then he reacted with a look of vigilance on his face, and a faint white light appeared on his palms.
The skin of his hands turned into a metal color, and it didn't look like human hands, but like a machine.
"Soldier branch is really different. You must have transformed your hands into dexterity." Xu Bai said with a faint smile.
Ah Fu said vigilantly: "Master Xu, the villain didn't offend you, it was just a slip of the tongue in the morning, so there is no need to kill the villain, right?"
The smile on Xu Bai's face did not disappear, but became brighter and brighter: "Do you think you can resist? If you want to survive, just be obedient."
Ah Fu could feel the power of the hundreds of fragments, each fragment contained black light and strong wind, and at the same time was moving slowly in the sky, with a breathtaking trajectory.
He is definitely no match, and will die badly.
But he heard Xu Bai's meaning, which means not to kill him?
"Master Xu didn't want to do something to me?" Ah Fu thought for a moment and said.
"It depends if you don't fight back. If you don't move, your life is not in danger." Xu Bai walked over, raised his hand, and slashed Ah Fu's neck.
Ah Fu looked at the attacking palm, then looked at the hundreds of pieces of debris next to him, finally gritted his teeth and did not fight back.
"boom!"
A dull voice sounded, Ah Fu was full of doubts, and only felt a slight pain in his neck, but there was no damage.
"I didn't grasp the strength well." Xu Bai said secretly.
Can't blame him for this.
Who knows how much force is needed to stun a person, if the force is too strong, wouldn't it be a loss to directly cut off Ah Fu's neck?
But it doesn't matter, the problem is not big at all, if it fails once, there are two more times, he has a lot of time to try.
"Boom bang bang bang bang..."
Bursts of dull voices sounded, Xu Bai's strength gradually increased, and Ah Fu's face became more and more ugly.
What is this doing? Is this provoking him, or insulting him?
The key point is that he didn't dare to fight back at all, because Xu Bai said that as long as he fights back, the hundreds of pieces may kill him in an instant.
"Too much, too much!" Ah Fu clenched his fists, feeling the pain between his necks.
This is tantamount to pressing him to the ground and constantly rubbing his feet against his face. This is hitting him in the face!
The sense of humiliation is constantly increasing, Ah Fu's clenched fists are getting tighter and tighter, and he can hear the creaking sound of his clenched teeth.
When the sense of humiliation gradually increased to a higher level, Ah Fu felt that he had reached a limit and could not bear it.
Suddenly, there was a sense of drowsiness in my mind, and then, I didn't know what happened, lost consciousness, and fell to the ground.
Ye Zi: "..."
Today is really an eye-opener, and it is unimaginable to be able to knock people out in such an outrageous way.
"No wonder people in the world say that Mr. Xu is very strange, so Mr. Xu dared to use this method." Ye Zi thought to himself.
The other party didn't dare to fight back, so he could only be tried by Xu Bai over and over again. Only those who saw this kind of scene in person felt it was particularly shocking.
Ye Zi felt that his vision had been completely opened up today.
Xu Bai clapped his hands, and said regretfully: "I'll try more in the future, otherwise I'll have to try again and again, it's too troublesome."
Ye Zi stared at her beautiful big eyes, her face was full of astonishment.
Is this troublesome? It's just waving a few times.
Of course, she didn't dare to comment, she could only bury her surprise in her heart.
"I don't know how long he will be unconscious. Let's start. By the way, you can tell if he is really unconscious, or is he just pretending?" Xu Bai asked.
Ye Zi came back to his senses, and nodded his head vigorously, indicating that he could judge it.
Seeing that Xu Bai had already begun to urge her, she did not hesitate, and slowly raised her fair index fingers, staggering them in front of her.
Above the ten fingers, there was a hazy light, and as Ye Zi intertwined, there appeared one after another like real silk threads.
"Zheng..."
Like the crisp sound of a guzheng, as Ye Zi's slender fingers plucked, these silk threads conveyed notes one after another.
During the beating of the note, it got into Ah Fu's body.
A moment later, Ah Fu had a smile on his face, as if he was having a sweet dream.
Ye Zi didn't stop plucking the silk thread, making the note more obvious, and it really sounds good.
About a minute or two passed.
Ah Fu was already asleep, but as the music passed, he opened his mouth and uttered a burst of dream language.
Xu Bai's eyes lit up slightly.
Judging from the situation, it should be a success.
Sure enough, Ye Zi turned his eyes, looked at Xu Bai, and said softly, "My lord, you can start now. If you ask him a question now, he should answer truthfully in his sleep."
As a craftsman, Ye Zi certainly knows the best timing, so he hastened to remind him.
Xu Bai nodded, came to Ah Fu, and said, "Tell me, who are the people who deal with me?"
Ah Fu heard Xu Bai's voice, and his face showed a look of struggle.
Obviously, his question made Ah Fu shake.
But the next moment, Ye Zi accelerated the movement notes of the silk thread, and it became hurried in a blink of an eye.
The struggling look on Ah Fu’s face gradually disappeared, and he slowly opened his mouth...
Some readers said that the protagonist needs to increase his anti-reconnaissance capabilities. Don’t worry, I’m preparing for it, and it will be available soon.
