Hao Zhengyi's wife died young and is still unmarried. He only has two children. Hao Tian's brother is unwilling to inherit the family business and went abroad to study in his early years. Although Hao Tian worked hard, his qualifications were mediocre. Coupled with the suppression of the Bai family in recent years, the Hao family was gradually losing its talents. Therefore, Hao Zhengyi was worried every year when he went to the competition. He could only find qualified apprentices to participate. .
No matter what, the Hao family has been losing for three consecutive years.
As soon as Song Ye saw the two apprentices today, he could faintly sense that they were not kind to him, so he didn't have too much contact with them. But now Hao Tian had given the order, but they went out during lunch break. It was clear that something was going on.
Song Ye waited in the room until the footsteps got farther away, then opened the door and walked out, chasing the two of them in the direction they disappeared.
In less than a while, she was lost among the complicated houses. It was noon at this time, everyone was resting, and the surroundings were quiet. Song Ye walked to the eaves of a house, looked at the name on the wooden sign, and knew I am obsessed with the Five Elements and Bagua.
From the moment she entered the house today, her attention was attracted by the scattered layout of the house. She subconsciously concluded that this was a Bagua diagram. In addition, the font size on the wooden sign confused the concept, so she felt that she had been walking in circles.
After thinking about this, she pulled off a wooden sign with the word "di" under the eaves, and quickly passed the eaves. She turned whenever she came to the wooden sign with the word "di". In less than twenty minutes, she had reached the back of the medicine store.
"As expected." She turned over the wooden sign in her hand with great interest, and found that all this was just a brain teaser. It is easy for people to get confused due to visual confusion, and mistakenly think that they have really entered the Five Elements and Bagua array. In fact, The layout of these rooms still follows certain rules, and the wooden sign on the door is both a roadblock and the answer to the problem.
However, Song Ye really didn't understand the Five Elements Bagua and only relied on logical reasoning to figure it out. At least in her opinion, this old man in the medicine shop did have some abilities.
However, after a while, Song Ye discovered that there were two rows of brand new footprints on the ground leaving the backyard. Because the backyard was sparsely populated, these two rows of shoe prints were undoubtedly two apprentices.
On the next journey, relying on his tracking skills, Song Ye was familiar with the road and chased him all the way to the bamboo forest in the back mountain.
The wind rustled the leaves in the bamboo forest, and smelling the aroma of herbs along the way, Song Ye arrived at the back of a medicinal field, and then he heard voices and stopped.
Hiding behind a tree, she looked up and saw two apprentices nodding and bending behind her back, their laughter mixed with clear flattery.
Standing opposite them was Bai Hong, who was dressed in white robes.
He led three or two Bai family members and stood there with their hands behind their backs, his tone unabashedly arrogant, "Do you know why I called you here?"
The two apprentices shook their heads, "Young Master Bai, it's not us who offended you today. We have nothing to do with that Song Ye."
These two people had obviously colluded to make confessions long ago and put all the blame on Song Ye.
Bai Hong laughed twice and said with a persuasive look, "Haha, look at you, you have been working as cows and horses in the Hao family for many years, and you are not as useful as a pretty boy. When the time comes, Hao Zhengyi will pass on the family business to the pretty boy. You are still useless handymen. I tell you, you need to see the situation clearly as soon as possible. How can the Hao family compare with the Bai family now? In our Bai family, there is no prescription, and there is a lot of medicine, stone and jade. Now, I'll give you a chance, should you side with the Hao family or the Bai family?"
After going in a big circle, belittling others and promoting himself, Bai Hong finally revealed his purpose of winning over.
And the two apprentices, just as Song Ye thought, said shamelessly, nodding with almost no hesitation, "Thank you, Mr. Bai. We have wanted to leave the Hao family for a long time. Thank you, Mr. Bai, for taking them in."
"Haha, it's easy to talk. As long as you perform well tomorrow, everything will be easy to discuss." A proud smile appeared on the corner of Bai Hong's mouth.
Song Ye had already guessed that this guy was going to pull some dirty tricks for tomorrow's game. He was about to concentrate on listening to their plan when he suddenly noticed something strange in the rustling wind, a sound coming through the air. She subconsciously turned her head to avoid the silver needle that passed by her.
Looking at the silver needle that penetrated the wood and glowed with cold light, Song Ye quickly dodged and chased towards the place where the sound came from.
The person who came was very fast and made no sound while walking through the woods. Song Ye could feel that the other person had the same kind of aura as himself.
The huge forest in the back hill was empty. Within a short time, the two of them, one after the other, had quickly moved away from the detection range of the Bai family. Song Ye knew that the other party wanted to kill him secretly, but she didn't want to reveal her identity.
About twenty minutes later, Song Ye rushed into a forest full of fallen leaves. The surrounding trees became more and more lush, and the light was much darker than before. In the silence, not even a breath could be felt.
She didn't speak. She stood in the open space and looked around, as if she was looking for something. Suddenly, there was a small whooshing sound, and she suddenly covered her neck. She fell to the ground instantly, and there was no movement.
After waiting for a while, the man in black who was hiding in the tree jumped down. The black clothes and black pants fell to the ground silently. Even the sound of footsteps on the leaves was much quieter than that of ordinary people.
Because when he shot the silver needle just now, he saw Song Ye raising his hands to cover his neck first, so he had to come down to make sure the silver needle was ready to hit the target.
When he came closer and wanted to squat down, he suddenly realized something was wrong and hurriedly wanted to retreat, but it was already too late.
Song Ye, who was supposed to be in a coma, suddenly opened his eyes, and kicked the opponent's knee with his taut toes. He only heard a click, and the opponent let out a muffled groan, and his retreat speed suddenly slowed down.
Afterwards, Song Ye quickly stood up from the ground and launched an attack. The fists clenched into small white hands were not big, but they struck at the opponent quickly like raindrops.
The man couldn't retreat enough and didn't choose to dodge. He subconsciously believed that the small white fist could not hurt anyone, so he raised his hand to resist. On the one hand, he could also wait for an opportunity to strike and kill Song Ye again.
But when the seemingly weak fist landed on his arm, there was only a crisp click, and the man was shocked. A burst of pain hit him, and it was too late to dodge.
The fist was fast and hard, and the sound of cracking was heard constantly. The man's arms, ribs, and chest were fractured to varying degrees with each blow. Every troop that was hit seemed to have... It fell apart instantly.
The frail little chicken in front of me turned out to be a strange warrior.
