Xiao Bei and the others were stunned by this person's laughter. They looked at each other and tried hard to recall the story that their brother and sister had told them.
Finally, Xiao Bei thought of something and asked, "You … Did you say that you were very satisfied that we were able to save you?"
"Yes." This person nodded and shook his head in a very natural and unrestrained manner. His hair that had become messy in the water earlier splashed water all over Xiao Bei and the others' faces. This was because he was a little far away. The two people next to him were even hit in the face by his wet hair.
These two people glared at him but did not say anything.
Others did not say anything, but he said, "Not bad, you are indeed good servants. Even if you encounter something that makes you uncomfortable, you can still endure silently. Good.
Also, I am very satisfied with you children. After seeing me, you were able to remain calm. Furthermore, you were able to guess what I was thinking when I laughed out loud. As such, I did not wait for you for a few days in vain, nor did I waste the time soaking in the water for so long. "
As this person spoke, he reached out and moved his hair to the front. He grabbed it and stroked it from top to bottom. The water formed a small stream and splashed onto the deck.
Xiao Bei pouted. If it were not for her status, she would have gotten someone to kick this person down. What was this? She had seen arrogant and shameless people, but she had never seen such a person.
Xiao Bei sulked and did not speak. Old Man Wang was not willing. This was the precious child of the family. Although they were relatives, Xiao Bei's status was different. Even if they were just a little bit relatives, they had to treat her seriously.
He coldly snorted and asked this person, "Who are you? Why did you lie to us to save you? Why don't you tell us the truth? "
When this person heard the voice, he arrogantly turned his head to look at Old Man Wang. The corner of his mouth twitched, and he turned his head back. He said to Xiao Bei, "How can you have such an insensible servant in your house?"
"What are you yelling for? If you talk to me like that again, I will get someone to kick you down. It is not up to you to say what my family does. I am asking you a question, so answer quickly. Do you think you are very smart? You know how to pretend to be drowning so that we can save you?
Have you heard the story of the boy who cried wolf? There was a child who liked to lie to others. Then, he cried wolf. This way, others would have to save him … "
Xiao Bei finally could not hold back. She stared at this person and told him the story of the boy who cried wolf.
When she finished, Xiao Yuan continued, "You are the child who lied. Before you do anything, you never consider the feelings of others. I will give you one last chance..... speak."
This person was stunned by Xiao Bei's story and Xiao Yuan's words. After a while, he regained his composure. His eyes turned, and he suddenly smiled again. He praised, "Not bad, you're right. I didn't waste my efforts. I finally found someone who can inherit my legacy.
Let me introduce myself. My surname is Hu, and my name is Liang. My ancestral home is in the Shannan East Road. I lost all my family when I was young. I could only think of ways to survive. I suffered a lot, but I also learned many skills.
I can go up the mountain to fight tigers, and I can also go down the sea to catch dragons. I am a very big fish. Did you see me in the water just now? Do you think that I am very unusual? I am also familiar with all kinds of books, and I am proficient in zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting.
I know the way of metaphysics and the power of the stars. Unfortunately, for many years, I have been trying to find someone who I can pass on my skills to. I have long heard that you are extraordinarily intelligent, so I want to meet you. Why don't you quickly become my disciple? What are you waiting for? "
In the process of introducing himself as Hu Liang, he raised his head again, looking very capable.
Xiao Bei sighed and did not say anything. He turned around and left. The others also walked towards the cabin. They were already speechless by this person.
He was so good at bragging. If they did not have brothers and sisters, perhaps they would be a little curious when they saw such a person, and then let him perform. However, in the stories of the brothers and sisters, it was said that there was no need to pay attention to such people. They were either mentally ill or big liars.
There was no need to give them any chance to perform. It was not worth it to waste their time.
"Don't go. Let me finish. If you don't believe me, you can test me. See if I have many skills. If there is anything wrong, you don't need to chase me away. I will jump off the boat myself. "
Hu Liang was anxious. As he spoke, he wanted to chase after Xiao Bei's group, but the people beside him grabbed his arm and could not break free.
"Don't grab me. Let me tell you, if your master loses a chance to accept a talent because of you grabbing me, you will not be able to afford it."
Hu Liang tried a few times, but in the end, he was not as strong as the protection team. After helplessly giving up, he angrily said to the people around him.
The people standing in front of him and blocking the way laughed disdainfully and said, "Accept a talent? Do you think this is the Spring and Autumn Period? Do you think others will value you just because you're crazy and act like you're capable? Let me tell you, our family lacks everything, but we don't lack people like you.
The little things you know are nothing in our eyes. Hurry up and leave. Don't wait for us to get you off. Do you see the platform in front? Go there and jump down from the top. You won't fall on the deck below. Go, go. "
As the guard spoke, he followed the two people who were holding Hu Liang and pushed him towards the platform, letting Hu Liang struggle.
Seeing that he was about to reach the platform, Hu Liang finally did not insist on his arrogant appearance. Instead, he cried and begged, "Don't, don't take me away. To be honest, I haven't eaten a full meal for two days. I don't have a single cent on me now.
"In the past few months, I've been looking for a job in countless places, but all of them look down on me like dogs. In the end, I often only get to eat one meal a day, and that's because people are kind enough to give it to me.
From yesterday until now, I have only eaten half a steamed bun, and there is hair on it. I don't know what I ate wrong, but my stomach hurts. In desperation, I came here to wait for your ship so that I can ask your doctor to take a look at me. Otherwise, I will die, sob ~ ~! "
In the end, this person was already choking with sobs, which annoyed the three guards.
However, the three guards still sent Hu Liang towards the platform. At this moment, a servant girl came out of the cabin and shouted, "Wait, my mistress said that she is very heavy now, so she wants to accumulate good karma for the child. Fine, no matter if he is really capable or just a liar, it is not easy. Let him stay on the ship for the time being."
After speaking to the three guards, the servant girl said to Hu Liang, "My mistress is kind. Remember, you can stay on the ship, but you are not allowed to wander around. If your stomach is not feeling well, you can ask the doctor to treat you and get medicine. You have to eat whatever is given to you during meals.
You can't ask about things casually, and you can't talk too much when others are talking. Otherwise … you will be pushed down, hmph! "
"Thank you, thank you. I don't dare, I will listen to your mistress's arrangements. That … I wonder if there is anything to fill my stomach now? I am really too hungry. "
Hu Liang thanked and promised. He grinned and asked the servant girl for something to eat.
"Wait, in a while, let someone accompany you to wash up and then change your clothes. When the time comes, there will naturally be food sent to you. Also, didn't you say that you can read? Write down everything about yourself. It doesn't matter if you can't think of it now, slowly recall.
Especially the things that happened in the past few months. If we find out that you are lying, then it won't be as simple as pushing you down. We will arrange a cabin for you, and you can only stay there. You are not allowed to come out without being called. Do you remember? "
The servant girl asked one by one and looked at Hu Liang, waiting for his answer.
"Yes, yes, I remember all of them. I won't forget a single one. Thank you, I will definitely repay you well." Hu Liang nodded and promised again.
The servant girl waved her hand, turned around, and walked away with light steps.
The three guards looked at Hu Liang. The empty-handed one said slowly, "Since the mistress found you pitiful and let you stay on the ship for the time being, you can stay for a few days. Don't let us see you play tricks. Let's go, we will arrange it for you."
The other two people still grabbed Hu Liang's arms, one on the left and one on the right, and walked towards a cabin.
Xiaobei and the others did not stay idle. They immediately told their brother about this matter.
The reason they let the person who called himself Hu Liang stay was because of the news from their brother and sister. Since he was already here, it was better to keep him by their side and observe him. No matter how powerful the other party was, he would not be able to play any tricks under their watch.
*****
When Zhang Xiaobao received the news, he, Wang Juan, and Li Longji were looking at the new thing.
It was a lifting device that was driven by an electric motor. The previous device used pulleys, but it required manpower. Just last night, the technicians who traveled with the fleet had perfected the design and manufacturing of the electric lift through experiments.
They were going to follow Lu Zhou to design the railway. It just so happened that they had nothing else to do during the journey. Apart from asking Wang Juan for advice when they encountered something they did not understand, most of the time, they were busy with their own design ideas, trying to turn their theories into reality.
The principle of the lift was very simple. When it was energized, it would rotate, and it would drive the capstan to wind the steel wire. Then, there would be another button. This button was a gear that worked in the opposite direction and controlled the gear change.
This thing itself wasn't too difficult. The difficult part was the precision of the meshing of the gears. What he was making now was a simple elevator. In the future, it would be used on a steam engine ship to allow the ship to easily move forward and backward, and also control the speed.
In this way, when the ships turned or when they were in formation, it would be of great help and increase the turning speed.
Li Longji was looking at the new lift that lifted a small boat up and down. No matter how he thought about it, he felt it was a very simple thing. He was just about to ask Zhang Xiaobao why he spent so much effort to make this thing when he received news from Xiaobei.
"Quick, Xiaobei's news is here. Let me have a look." When Li Longji heard the news from the people in the inner court, he was even more enthusiastic than Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan. As he spoke, he snatched the piece of information from Xiaobei.
He glanced at it before he raised his hand and showed Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan a thumbs up. He said, "Amazing! You two really guessed it. What do you think is going on over there?"
"Someone went to look for my mother?" Zhang Xiaobao played along and asked.
"Yes, that's right. It's a crazy person. Tell me, who do you think this person is? What's his purpose? "Li Longji asked as he waved the piece of paper in his hand.
Zhang Xiaobao raised his hand and gestured for Li Longji to take the piece of information. He said, "Xiaobei and the others are still two days away from Hangzhou. I originally thought that they would arrange for someone to wait in Hangzhou. I didn't expect that they would arrange for someone to wait there. Very good."
After taking the piece of information and reading it, Zhang Xiaobao raised the corners of his mouth. He said to Wang Juan, who had also read the piece of information, "This person is not ordinary. He actually knows a bit about psychology. Unfortunately, he chose the wrong person."
Wang Juan also smiled and said, "That's right. He used a series of actions to make others lower their guard against him and think of him as a clumsy opponent.
In fact, he knew very well that if he stopped the boat and waited for help in the water, he would definitely be exposed. He used those very fake actions to judge Xiaobei and the others' perception of him. From there, he guessed to what extent Xiaobei and the others were guarding against him.
When he got on the boat, he took the initiative to say that he was faking it. His purpose was to observe the reactions of Xiaobei and the others in our inner courtyard, so that he could use the most appropriate identity to deal with them. In the end, he described himself as very pitiful in order to further test the extent to which Xiaobei and the others understood his identity.
This kind of trick was useful for others, but it was useless against our inner courtyard. No matter what he did, the inner courtyard would not lower their guard against him. If he wanted to pass the information to his accomplices, then there was only one way.
When he came over, he had already told his accomplices that if he didn't come down from the boat, it meant that we were guarding against him. He would wait on the boat for an opportunity and tell his accomplices not to contact him again. "
Li Longji was listening to Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan talk on the side. He was very surprised. He didn't expect that such a simple matter would be so complicated by the two of them.
Thus, he asked, "If that's the case, what's the use of him staying on the boat? Won't he still be able to pass the information back if he's chased off? Doesn't he know how tight the defenses of the Zhang Family and Wang Family are? He can't possibly think that he has the ability to successfully make a move against Xiaobei and your mother under layers of surveillance and protection, right? "
Gao Lishi, who had followed them to look at the lift, couldn't figure out what Hu Liang was thinking. If he put himself in a dangerous situation and didn't do anything, wouldn't he be a fool?
Then, he said, "When he gets on Xiaobei's boat, he will definitely change into someone else's clothes and then take a bath. He won't be able to carry anything on him. Even if he wants to poison him, he won't be able to find an opportunity. Sigh ~! This kind of opponent isn't difficult to deal with. "
Wang Juan didn't say anything and signaled for Zhang Xiaobao to explain.
Zhang Xiaobao pondered for a moment and explained, "Actually, there are other ways to carry things. For example, if you want to put something in your mouth, you can also use a kind of glue to make a bag. You can put poison in it and eat one end into your stomach, leaving a string on the other end, then tie it to your teeth.
When you want to use it, you can just spit it out from your stomach. However, I'm sure that Hu Liang won't do such a thing. The inspection at my house won't miss this. We'll check his entire body from head to toe, inside and out, even the area behind his butt.
Even if he has a scar on his body, we'll check it carefully to see if he cut his skin and stuff something inside. When it's healed, he can use it at a critical moment. "
"Then he should have a motive," Li Longji voiced out the doubt in his heart.
"He has a few motives. First, he wants to alert the enemy and put us in a tense situation at all times to see how we react. Second, he wants us to put more of our attention on the assassination of Xiaobei and my mother, thus neglecting other aspects.
Third, he wants them to adjust their strategy. Some plans should be changed. For example, when they were waiting for our ship to reach Hangzhou, they disguised themselves as dock workers, or even were dock workers themselves.
We told them that they couldn't make a move and that our defense was too tight. Finally, he thinks that no matter what we do to him, no matter how we pretend to be on guard against him, and no matter how we change our habits, he can get useful information from it.
These are all the reasons I can think of. He even thinks that he alone will restrain the energy of many of us. This is also a waste of manpower, haha. "
Zhang Xiaobao guessed and said a few motives, then smiled indifferently.
Li Longji and Gao Lishi suddenly understood, and at the same time, their expressions became solemn.
They thought that if the opponent casually sent a person, and he was so powerful, then how powerful was the person hiding in the dark? They wondered what the result would be this time. The main thing was that Great Tang would lose a lot of things, including lives and money.
Li Longji sighed and said, "If it weren't for the news from there today, I would have thought that the Jiangnan West Road incident was more of a coincidence and that someone was really going to make a big move.
However, through this Hu Liang, Xiao Bao, you and Cuckoo have guessed correctly. There is a power behind this. Don't you think that Great Tang will suffer a great loss? "
Wang Juan continued and comforted, "Your Majesty, don't worry. There won't be a big problem. They don't want to harm ordinary people, just like us. They won't go to other countries just to poison people. It's meaningless.
In that case, even if they choose a small river and throw a large amount of poison into a shallow well, or buy pigs and put the poison into the pork, these methods won't have much effect.
Even if they opened a restaurant and poisoned the people who ate there, it would only be a small portion of the population. It was far too small compared to the people of the Great Tang.
Their main goal is to disrupt Great Tang and make the people lose confidence in Great Tang. They want to pull me and Zhang Xiaobao down from the altar. They haven't made a big move yet, and they are still probing. That's why Xiao Bao and I arranged that series of things to confuse them. "
"So that's the case. Right, right, that's how it should be. Their goal is to get rid of the two of you. Right now, almost everyone knows how important the two of you are to Great Tang. If the two of you were to lose your standing in the eyes of the people, the impact on Great Tang would be unimaginable.
That's why they schemed so hard to deal with the two of you. However, Xiaobei arrived at the right time. This Emperor guesses that they haven't finished setting the trap yet. In order to deal with the manager of the Great Tang Bank, Xiaobei and the others wanted the manager to take them seriously, so they started a rumor. "
As Li Longji spoke, he began to think about many things.
He realized that this matter was truly very interesting. Most likely, the people hiding in the shadows didn't want to act so early and hadn't finished setting the trap yet. However, Xiaobei and the others had released the rumor. If they didn't act now and waited for the rumor to pass, they wouldn't have enough strength to make a move.
In the end, once they acted, not only did they fail to threaten or harm the status of the Great Tang Bank, Zhang Xiaobao, and Wang Juan, they even helped the two of them consolidate their positions. This could be said to be a miscalculation.
What made the other side even more uncomfortable was that so many people had gone to save money and wanted to make a move against a country as large as a family. The most worrying thing was the lack of unity.
Just like the wolf pack, their individual strength wasn't so strong that they were invincible, but wolves were more dangerous than tigers. They were even more dangerous than ordinary armies. An army would collapse before the main commander died. It was too difficult to make a wolf pack collapse before the leader died.
Gao Lishi was the happiest about this. He chuckled and said, "The eyes of the common people are bright. Yes, Xiaobei and the others often say this. They know who the Great Tang can't do without. Naturally, His Majesty is the most important.
However, the common people also know that His Majesty isn't a big problem. What he is most worried about is the Great Tang Bank. Thus, when they were saving money, they said that the Great Tang Bank can't fall, and neither can the Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Families.
Because the Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Families have fallen, His Majesty will stand at the forefront. There will be no one in front of him to block all kinds of things. Xiao Bao, you should think about it carefully. It's best if you make the other side suffer so much that they can't even take back their money. "
"I've thought about it, but I need to know who the other side is first. Let's send a plan to Xiaobei and the others. Let them leak as many secrets as possible and let Hu Liang know."
Zhang Xiaobao's expression was relaxed. It wasn't that he wasn't worried, but that he had long been used to facing all kinds of pressure and difficulties. If there really wasn't any difficulty, he wouldn't be able to display his abilities.
"Let him know?" Li Longji was puzzled.
"Yes, let him know a bit more. He actually didn't come here to hurt anyone, because he knows that he can't hurt anyone. The only person he can hurt is himself. He will definitely be very obedient on the ship.
He will be so obedient that he will do whatever others want him to do. He will be so obedient that he won't ask, say, look, or hesitate. Wouldn't that be letting him off too easily? If he knows a bit more, he will be anxious and want to spread the news, even if he has to sacrifice himself.
But what we need to do is let him hear a lot of secrets, but not let him spread them, and even more so not let him die. He has bad intentions, so how can I let him have an easy time? "
Zhang Xiaobao very naturally raised his hand and placed it on his face, flicking it over and over again.
When Wang Juan, Li Longji, and Gao Lishi saw Zhang Xiaobao's actions, they all silently mourned for that person called Hu Liang.
"Xiao Bao, it's been a long time since you've had such bad intentions, right? We remember that when you were scheming against the rich people of Great Tang, you didn't do such a thing either. We really miss it. "
Li Longji patted Zhang Xiaobao's shoulder and said.
"Oh, itchy, I'm not bad. I'm a good person. I'm the kind of person who walks to hell on my own after death, and even the King of Hell is too embarrassed to accept me. He says that I'm too kind, and I shouldn't go to hell."
Zhang Xiaobao's hand changed from flicking to rubbing, and he rubbed his face a few times.
"The King of Hell is sending you to hell to ruin him. We can even imagine how the Infernal Judge's hand would tremble when he wrote your name. Tell me, what's the use of this elevator that your technicians came up with? I don't think it's a big deal. "
Li Longji patted Zhang Xiaobao's head again and pointed at the elevator.
Wang Juan covered her mouth and snickered, helping to explain, "Your Majesty, the elevator isn't very useful. Even if there isn't an elevator at the docks right now, it won't take too much time to transport goods.
However, the elevator isn't just about the engagement of the gears. It involves the strength of the steel of the gears, the compression resistance and regularity of the ball bearings, and the conversion between self-supporting and semi-self-supporting forces.
In fact, the elevator was developed in preparation for the lathe. Right now, we have a lathe driven by an electric motor, but if the processed object is too sturdy, the lathe's effect will be reduced. We can't just use the lathe to experiment directly. It's a waste, and it's also very dangerous.
Therefore, by collecting data on the elevator and then using it on the lathe, we include the problem of the strength and precision of the different force conversion devices that act on the processed object.
It goes like this. Normal force conversion is done through gears. What does a gear do? It embodies the simplest principle of a lever, but normal levers only have a single pivot point, and it's a problem of receiving and supporting forces.
However, if we use gears and shafts, we can use this method to create a two-axis interaction, or even a three-axis or more axis cooperation. When this technology is completed, it won't be using the pivot of the lever itself as the center. Instead, during the linkage process, it will be using multiple angles to make the processed object be at the center. In this case … "
"Stop, stop, don't talk to me anymore. I don't understand. Now I know that this seemingly useless elevator is actually very useful, right? Quickly go and send a message to Xiaobei and the others. "
Li Longji was confused. He knew that Wang Juan had already given him a lot of face by not using too many terms and explaining it very simply. However, if he didn't come into contact with this kind of thing and didn't learn it, he wouldn't be able to understand it no matter how simple it was. He just had to change the topic.
He took Gao Lishi and hid far away. He found a quiet place to think about what kind of power the person behind this was. As for the industrial side, it was not his business.
"Actually, after passing the elevator test, we can make the mold for the finished product. Cold forging is very useful sometimes, especially when making sharp objects. Sigh, it's a pity that people don't listen."
Wang Juan wanted to tell more about this to others, but she couldn't do anything if they didn't listen. She could only turn around and look at Zhang Xiaobao.
Zhang Xiaobao replied with a smile, "Honey, please tell me, I'm listening. I haven't learned systematically before, so I don't know much about this. After learning from you, there are too many things to learn. Tell me about it, and I'll see if it can be used in scams. It's very useful to fool people."
"What's there to say to you? I'm tired of being together with you every day. Tonight, you can sleep somewhere else. I'll have some peace and quiet by myself. "
After Wang Juan finished speaking, she left Zhang Xiaobao with a beautiful figure.
Zhang Xiaobao scratched his head, "Eh? Why did this happen? It seems that I have to control myself in the future. It won't do for a long time. Alright, I'll rest for one night. I have to find a few people who are willing to listen to her lectures. If you don't let me sleep, don't think about sleeping in that room. We'll work for one night, and we can sleep together in the morning tomorrow. Yes, you have to keep your promise.
Zhang Xiaobao was a man of his word. As expected, he didn't sleep for the whole night. Wang Juan also didn't sleep. There were always people coming over to ask about the physics lessons. She didn't know why everyone had questions today, and they were more concentrated than usual.
Only the technicians knew the reason. Zhang Xiaobao went over and asked them about their skills one by one. When they answered, he continued to ask around the question in detail. In the end, their grasp of the theory was different.
Therefore, the technicians said that they couldn't answer. Zhang Xiaobao pointed a way for them. He said that Wang Juan asked him to come over to help the technicians learn more as soon as possible. He would be responsible for asking the questions and play a role in guiding them. Wang Juan would wait in the cabin for others to learn.
In the end, the technicians went. They were very grateful to Wang Juan, who was so sleepy that she kept yawning but didn't dare to change her clothes and sleep.
Hu Liang was in a similar situation as Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan. He also realized that the situation in front of him was different from what he had imagined.
At first, Hu Liang thought that when he got on the ship, he wouldn't make any unnecessary movements when the other party clearly doubted him. Then, when they arrived in Hangzhou, he would summarize what he saw, heard, and even the types and tastes of the dishes he ate. This would allow him to further understand the Zhang Family and the Wang Family.
This afternoon, he had already struggled in the water. It was not easy to control his body to make large movements in the water while shouting for help.
Then he got on the ship. It would be a lie to say that he wasn't worried. Even if he was prepared to be killed at any time, he didn't want to die quickly. Otherwise, he would be really stupid.
After tossing around for a while, he was also checked inside and out. Even his teeth were not spared. What was even more infuriating was that whoever checked his lower body used too much strength. It still hurt even now.
When he was finally done and started to eat, he realized that he was eating dinner, not the time between lunch and dinner when he said that he was hungry.
The other party considerately came over and asked him what he wanted to eat. He even held a book. Oh, it was a menu. There were thousands of dishes in it and asked him to choose. Just looking at the menu was enough to make him dazzled.
He finally chose a few dishes. When the dishes were served, he realized that the amount was too large. The other party said that he must eat all the dishes he ordered. Otherwise, it would be a waste and a heinous act.
Then he could only eat. After eating, he realized that he was so full that he didn't even dare to move.
Speaking of which, the doctor was really amazing. He could guess that she was stuffed, so he got someone to send over some medicine to help with digestion. Once she took it, it really did help with digestion. Originally, she was stuffed, but now, she had diarrhea.
After struggling for a while, it was already four in the morning. He finally wanted to sleep for a while, but what kind of cabin was this? Could they not make the wooden boards between the cabins so thin?
In the end, he heard voices.
Now, there was still voices. It was endless.
Hu Liang lay on the shop and thought. At the same time, his ears couldn't help but listen to the movements of the three maidservants in the cabin next to him.
"Yu 'er, ask me another question. I love it when people ask me questions, okay?" A maidservant's voice sounded.
Hu Liang knew that the person who spoke was called Ye 'er. When he first heard her speak, he felt that she was not bad. Her voice was sweet, but it was so sweet for three hours. Who could stand it?
There was another one called Zi 'er. Together with Yu' er, who gave people problems, there were a total of three people. The three maidservants on night duty had just been switched over four hours ago. There was still one and a half more hours before they had to switch over to sleep. This was what they said.
It meant that the maidservants of the Zhang Family and Wang Family would change shifts for six hours. It was very short. The maidservants of other families usually didn't receive such treatment. Occasionally, they would take a break. If the master found out, it would be a big deal.
The treatment was good. No wonder they were all loyal. He noted this down, even if it was fake.
"Alright, alright. Ye 'er, you're always like this. I don't have many questions. Next time, if you want me to ask alone, I won't be on night duty with you. Tell me, there's a kind of' leisure 'exercise. When the upper part is happy, the lower part is in pain. When the upper part exerts strength, the lower part is bleeding. What kind of exercise is this?"
When Hu Liang heard Yu 'er's words, he wanted to curse. You're a girl, yet you're shamelessly asking such a question.
"Let me think. Yu 'er, don't tell me first. What kind of exercise is it? When the upper part is happy, the lower part is in pain? Aiya, I can't think of anything. Just tell me. "Ye 'er's voice sounded.
At this moment, Zi 'er spoke, "You're so stupid. It's fishing, right? Only people with impure thoughts would think of something else. Ye 'er, your face is red, yet you're still pretending that you don't know. "
"Oh my god, my thoughts are impure. What kind of question is this? You're cheating me. "Hu Liang smacked his head and mumbled.
In the end, his voice was accidentally heard by the person next door. Ye 'er's unique sweet voice immediately sounded, "Look at you, your thoughts aren't pure either. Eavesdropping on us. You're a man, yet you're thinking about dirty things all day. Ptui, close your ears."
Hu Liang opened his mouth and wanted to explain that the wooden plank was too thin. He thought about it and decided not to. With the help of his hand, he successfully closed his ears.
As soon as he blocked his ears, he reacted. How could he listen if he blocked his ears? Like a thief, he quietly let go of his ears and perked them up again.
"This doesn't count. Who asked Yu 'er to think of something else? Another one. Good Yu' er, say another one." Ye 'er's voice sounded again.
"Let's not talk about it anymore. Let's talk about something else. Tell me, did we really come here with Xiaobei and the others to catch someone? I think we're going to Hangzhou to meet our relatives. "
Yu 'er changed the topic and talked about something else.
"In my opinion, it's definitely not. Do you know? Xiaobei and the others want to go to Jiangzhou. There's going to be a railway passing by there. Xiaobei and the young masters are going to open a shop. The officials in Jiangzhou are really bad.
I heard from Madam that there's going to be trouble in Jiangzhou. It was Young Master Xiao Bao and Young Lady Cuckoo who told Madam that many people will die this time. You definitely don't know what the bad guys want to do in Jiangzhou, no, Jiangnan West Road, right?
It's scary to say it. They've set up a big trap there that involves all kinds of things. Fortunately, Young Master Xiao Bao and Young Lady Cuckoo have already come up with a plan to deal with it. "
When Hu Liang heard this, he shivered. He pressed his ears against the wooden plank and narrowed his eyes at the same time so that he could hear more clearly.
"I really don't know. What is it? Yu 'er, tell us. We promise not to tell anyone else. "Ye's sweet voice sounded.
"Actually, it doesn't matter if others hear it. Before dinner, Young Master Xiao Bao sent a message saying that he wants Hu Liang, who is new to the ship, to listen to our secret and find an opportunity to let him go. He wants him to spread the news so that Young Master can beat us at our own game.
Not to mention anything else, Young Lady Cuckoo's army has already made a move. Even the Emperor is not idle. Our Tang Empire is going to make a big move and catch all the bad guys in one fell swoop. "
Yu 'er continued.
Hu Liang felt very depressed when he heard this. He really couldn't tell if Yu 'er was telling the truth. If it was true, it meant that the other party had three maids. They were probably telling him. What was their purpose?
But it was fake. His people were indeed going to make a big move. He just didn't know where Wang Juan's army was sent. What kind of big move was the Emperor of Tang Empire referring to?
At this moment, Zi 'er asked, "If we tell Hu Liang directly, will he believe us? Why don't we speak louder? He's next door. I believe he can hear us. We've completed the mission, right? Guess, did he cover his ears? "
"Impossible." It was the sweet voice again. "I know what kind of person he is the most. He eavesdrops on a girl's conversation. He's so flirtatious. He pretends to be honest on the surface, but he's so flirtatious in his heart. If you don't believe me, why don't we ask him? Hu Liang, Hu Liang, did you hear that? If you didn't, snort. If you did, knock on the wooden board. "
Hu Liang gritted his teeth and persisted. He told himself that no matter what the other party said, he couldn't admit that he was eavesdropping. Even if a girl spoke without thinking carefully, he had to bear with it.
He happened to hear the other party's question and snorted.
"Pa!" A crisp sound rang out. Hu Liang had slapped himself.
"Look, he heard it. He's snorting." Her voice was still as sweet as honey.
"Sigh!" Hu Liang sighed. He covered his mouth with his left hand and pressed his right hand on his left hand. He looked like he wouldn't make a sound even if his nose was blocked and he suffocated to death.
"I think he's regretting it now. He's a very smart person, but he still did stupid things. Hu Liang, don't worry, we won't laugh at you. Continue listening. We really won't laugh at you. Why don't I sing you a song? It's the kind of love song that Ah Lang sang for Ah Mei."
Just listening to her voice made one look forward to how sweet the song would be.
