Chapter 134 Ye Zi Is Quite Useful (8000)

Visit the Ou family?

Ye Zi was stunned when she heard what Xu Bai said.

After a while, she hesitated and said, "But... are we going there openly?"

To do this, we must find a dark and windy time, put on a nightgown, and go there quietly, right?

Ye Zi was a little confused. Could they find anything useful if they went there openly?

"Of course we should go openly. Sometimes it is better to investigate openly than to investigate secretly." Xu Bai opened the door and said, "Let's go, hurry up."

Ye Zi was confused. Although she covered her face with a veil, her big eyes were full of doubts.

But since Xu Bai said so, she didn't ask any more questions and followed Xu Bai out of the door.

After going out, Xu Bai took Ye Zi to a small stall to eat.

Although Ye Zi was covered with a veil, her charming temperament did not change, making Xu Bai the focus.

After eating, the two of them slowly rushed to the Ou family.

During the whole process, Xu Bai did not seem to be in a hurry, but rather seemed to be shopping.

Ye Zi was even more confused. She felt that Xu Bai did not come here to ask for punishment, but rather seemed to be here for tourism.

But she knew very well that she only needed to play the role of a small transparent person. It would be troublesome if she cared too much.

Not long after, the two arrived at the Ou family.

As a wealthy family in Taotu Mansion, the Ou family was naturally quite rich. Even the stone lions at the door were much more exquisite than those of other families.

At the door, two servants were on duty with wooden sticks in their hands.

Seeing Xu Bai and Ye Zi coming over, one of the servants stepped forward and asked, "What are you doing here?"

After receiving this job, the servants also performed their duties faithfully. In this situation, the servants naturally asked first.

Especially when they saw the black knife on Xu Bai's waist with hundreds of cracks, the servants could see the difference of this knife and knew that Xu Bai was not easy to mess with.

"Inform, and say Xu Bai is here to see the head of the Ou family." Xu Bai said slowly, holding the black knife Bai Lie in his hand.

Ye Zi huddled behind Xu Bai, saying nothing, his eyes rolled around, not knowing what he was thinking.

The servant was slightly stunned, but still let Xu Bai wait here, and went in to inform.

After about an incense stick of time, the servant came out, bowed respectfully and said: "The head of the family said that he had a cold recently, and was worried that Lord Xu would be infected, so he couldn't see Lord Xu."

Xu Bai narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard this.

"What if I have to go in?"

"Lord Xu, please don't embarrass us. If Lord Xu insists on going in, we can only sue for trespassing." The servant's tone was quite helpless, but he still insisted on doing this job.

"Go ahead 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 words.

"How much money do you make a month? Is it worth risking your life?"

After saying this lightly, the two servants looked at the black knife on Xu Bai's waist, hesitated for a moment, and still did not dare to stop him.

Yes, it's just such a small amount of money a month, how could it be worth risking your life.

Thinking so, the servant could only pretend to be powerless to stop him.

Xu Bai came to the door and pushed it open.

The door made a slight sound, and inside the door was a huge courtyard.

Rich 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.

A moment later, Xu Bai was stopped by someone.

An old man dressed as a butler stood in front of Xu Bai, blocking Xu Bai's way, and said with a serious face: "Master Xu, my master is not feeling well, so you'd better come back another day. If you go back now, I can pretend that I didn't see you."

Although the butler was bent over, his tone was very tough. Obviously, he wanted to stop Xu Bai completely.

"An important thing was lost in my Yinyi. Now I have found it here. If you stop me, you are against the court." Xu Bai said indifferently.

He began to address me as "this official", naturally using the official to suppress others.

The old butler laughed and said: "Master Xu, you are joking. The Yinyi where Master Xu is located is located in Yunlai Mansion, which is far away from here. How could it be possible to find it here."

"If I say yes, it is." Xu Bai said: "Your status is too low, and you don't cooperate with me. If you stop me again, I will be merciless."

As soon as the voice fell, the old butler smiled even more brilliantly.

"Master Xu, you are trespassing..."

"Slap!"

Xu Bai retracted his hand, looked at the old housekeeper's swollen face, and said, "You are so playful, you deserve to be beaten."

"You!" The old housekeeper touched his face, his eyebrows raised, and was about to get angry.

Xu Bai interrupted, "By blocking my investigation, you are against the court. I am very generous to give you a slap."

After saying this, the old housekeeper wanted to get angry, but he suppressed his heart.

At this time, a slightly weak voice came out.

"Lord Xu is of noble status, how can he be so petty with a servant, Ah Fu, bring Lord Xu in."

No one is seen, only the voice is heard.

It's a master.

Xu Bai narrowed his eyes and thought secretly: "Pretending to be so weak, but the voice can be transmitted so far, and he came with me openly."

The old housekeeper named Ah Fu was slightly stunned when he heard the voice, but he quickly reacted, holding back the humiliation in his heart, and said: "Lord Xu, please."

"I still like your unruly 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 around and began to lead the way.

Even the head of the family has spoken, Ah Fu naturally has no other explanation, and walked quietly.

Just now, he was slapped in the face, so he could only admit defeat.

Ah Fu led Xu Bai and the others around the winding road, and finally came to an extremely luxurious house.

He went forward and knocked on the door: "Master, the person has been brought here."

"You go down first, and let Lord Xu and the others come in."

A weak voice came from the room.

Ah Fu bent down to answer, without talking to Xu Bai and the others, turned around and left directly, as if staying here for a while would make him feel particularly uncomfortable.

"Let's go in and take a look." Xu Bai walked to the door and pushed it open.

Ye Zi followed Xu Bai, and the two walked directly into the room.

Compared with the luxury outside the door, the room was also extremely luxurious.

Whether it was the size of the ornaments or the surrounding pattern, it looked very exquisite, making people feel very comfortable at first glance.

In the center of the room, there was a recliner, on which lay a middle-aged man, wearing a long gown. Although it was just an ordinary style, the material and workmanship were very exquisite.

At this moment, the middle-aged man looked extremely pale, and he looked like he had a serious illness and had not yet fully recovered.

"I am ill and cannot get up to greet you. I hope Lord Xu will not blame me." The head of the Ou family held the handle of the recliner with both hands and tried his best to get up, but when he was halfway up, he lay down again weakly.

This action is full of two words, weak.

Whether in terms of appearance or demeanor, there is a feeling of recovering from a serious illness.

"Master Ou, don't get up. Since you are already ill, you should have a good rest. Xu just wants to see Master Ou and discuss something by the way." Xu Bai politely nodded his head, indicating that he should not get up to greet him. He took Ye Zi and found a seat to sit down, looking familiar.

"What is the matter with Lord Xu?" The head of the Ou family was still pale and weak, but after hearing what Xu Bai said, he did not get up. He just lay on the recliner and asked weakly.

Whether in details or other aspects, he performed perfectly, and no one noticed anything abnormal.

Xu Bai was about to speak when his nose suddenly moved and he smelled an unusual smell.

The smell was very pungent, as if something was burnt. Although it was very faint, it could be smelled very clearly.

"In broad daylight, the Ou family is still burning things?" Xu Bai put his elbows on the table and said with interest: "Is it almost burned?"

Last night, Ye Zi had said that the Ou family was collecting information about him in order to deal with him. Now he smelled this smell again, and it was obvious that they had almost dealt with it.

"Today I happened to be cleaning up some things, and some remaining waste needed to be burned. It just so happened that Lord Xu came over. It was really a bit rude." The head of the Ou family explained with a bleak smile.

Hearing this, Ye Zi slightly opened her red lips and wanted to speak, but was stopped by Xu Bai's eyes.

Since the other party was so calm, he must have dealt with all the subsequent matters, and it would be useless to go out to look for it.

But it didn't matter. He didn't come here to find these things, but for other purposes.

"Let's talk about business. This time, I came here to ask the head of the Ou family to borrow someone." Xu Bai said.

Although the head of the Ou family remained in a supine position, he frowned after hearing what Xu Bai said, not understanding what Xu Bai meant.

"Who does Lord Xu want to borrow?"

"The old housekeeper named Ah Fu just now. I saw that he still has some power in the mansion. I think he will be of great use to me." Xu Bai thought for a while and said.

"Excuse me, I don't know what the Lord Xu wants to borrow Ah Fu for?" The head of the Ou family pondered.

Xu Bai pretended to be enlightened and explained: "It's like this. I'm new here and I'm not familiar with everything. I need someone who knows the business to help me lead the way, so I found you. As for why I only found you, it's because the head of the Jiqiao Pavilion introduced it."

At this point, he even brought out the Jiqiao Pavilion.

Hearing this, the head of the Ou family fell silent.

This request was too abrupt. He didn't understand what tricks Xu Bai was playing, so he didn't easily agree.

Xu Bai didn't say anything either. He just sat there, waiting for a reply.

He didn't say a word, but he believed that the head of the Ou family would definitely reply to him next.

Ye Zi's soft eyes like stars were filled with a trace of doubt.

She didn't understand 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 were very particular about this. They just stayed aside obediently, didn't say a word, and let Xu Bai make the decision.

After a while, the head of the Ou family sighed, and finally broke the silence and slowly said the next words.

"The old housekeeper and I have known each other for many years, and have always worked hard for the family. If Lord Xu wants to find someone familiar with the family, I can make other arrangements." The head of the Ou family said.

This sentence really blocked Xu Bai's words. Whether it was from the perspective of human relations or other aspects, there was no reason to borrow it.

But who is Xu Bai? If he has no reason, he can find one.

"I don't need anyone else. I just want him to lead the way for me." Xu Bai shook his head and said.

The head of the Ou family smiled bitterly and said, "Master Xu, you are making things difficult for me. If that's the case, I can refuse to lend it."

Xu Bai said, "You can try it."

There was a hint of threat in these words.

Ye Zi's eyes widened. She didn't expect Xu Bai to forcefully want to take people with him. She thought it was for other reasons, but she didn't expect it to be so tough.

The head of the Ou family looked straight at Xu Bai, and Xu Bai was not to be outdone. He also looked straight at the head of the Ou family.

The two looked at each other for a while. After a while, the head of the Ou family's tone became serious.

"Master Xu, you are provoking our family. If I don't agree to you, do you still want to destroy our family in broad daylight?" The head of the Ou family said in a deep voice.

"I am an upright person and will not do those things, but I cannot guarantee that there will not be some villains who will secretly make trouble for you. I don't know about that." Xu Bai said with a hint of meaning.

The head of the Ou family almost gritted his teeth and said: "Borrow it! But before that, he must hand over many things in his hands. How about I send it to Lord Xu's residence in the afternoon?"

"Okay." Xu Bai stood up from his seat, stretched his waist, looked at Ye Zi, and said: "Let's go, let's go back."

"Ah?" Ye Zi uttered a cry, full of confusion, but still followed Xu Bai and went out directly.

The two did not even have much communication with the head of the Ou family, let alone say goodbye, and just left.

When Xu Bai and the others left the Ou Mansion, the head of the Ou family suddenly became gloomy, and the original paleness disappeared, replaced by a normal color.

He stood up from his seat, looked at the direction outside the door, and laughed coldly.

At this time, he did not look sick at all, and was more vigorous than normal people.

"Okay, very good." The head of the Ou family clenched his fists, and there was a burst of anger in his eyes, like a dog that was cornered.

"Afu!"

He shouted, and his clenched fists loosened. The anger in his eyes was fading, and he tried to calm himself down.

Outside the room, Afu hunched over and walked in from the door.

"Master, I know everything, just let me go."

There was still a red palm print on Afu's right cheek. His face, which was swollen by Xu Bai, looked asymmetrical and extremely funny.

"Do you think he found something when he came here this time?" The head of the Ou family returned to the recliner, gently rocked the recliner, closed his eyes and said.

Ah Fu thought for a moment and said, "Master, I think we haven't revealed anything, so he can't know our purpose. Is he really just asking me to be a guide?"

Ou Family Master opened his eyes with a solemn look in his eyes: "Don't underestimate this person. Xu Bai looks harmless on the surface, but everything he did just now is actually showing us a phenomenon."

"He slapped you and used the so-called official power to oppress me, just to tell us that he is a good-for-nothing who only knows how to exercise official power."

"But it was such a good-for-nothing who wiped out the people of Zimu Mansion. This person must not be underestimated."

Ah Fu nodded repeatedly and said no more.

He was waiting for the order of Ou Family Master. Since the other party had already made a move, Ou Family Master must fight back, otherwise he would be passively beaten.

The head of the Ou family pondered for a long time and finally made a decision: "You follow him, don't say anything to disobey him, just see what he wants to do, and don't show any flaws. We must know what he wants to do before we deal with him."

"Yes, I will go to where he is now." Ah Fu nodded and prepared to leave immediately.

"Wait." The head of the Ou family said: "I just told him that you still have to hand over the things in your hands. It's not too late to go there later."

"Yes!" Ah Fu answered again, and then left the room.

After Ah Fu left, the room fell into silence. The head of the Ou family sat on the recliner, swaying back and forth with the amplitude of the recliner, his eyes slightly focused, and no one knew what he was thinking.

...

On 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 look on his face, but did not say anything, biting his lower lip tightly, and his curiosity was about to burst out.

"Okay, don't look at me with that look, just ask whatever you want to ask." Xu Bai sat on the chair and put the bag behind him aside.

Ye Zi stared at Xu Bai with her big watery eyes, organized her words, and asked: "Young Master, I don't understand why you asked his old butler to guide us?"

She thought that this time, there would be a fight, but she didn't expect that both sides were acting against each other. The only thing she couldn't figure out was why Xu Bai asked the old butler to be a guide.

Isn't this bringing the enemy with you?

"I don't think everyone in the Ou family knows the secrets. The old housekeeper has a high status and he knows a lot of things." Xu Bai said.

Ye Zi rolled her eyes, moved lightly, walked to Xu Bai's side, and asked: "Young Master, are you sure you can get the truth from the old housekeeper?"

"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 get information?"

Ye Zi was slightly stunned, and soon reacted, lowered his head and said: "I only have the ability of the sixth rank. If the old housekeeper is stronger than me, I must knock him unconscious before I can try, and it may not succeed."

Xu Bai frowned and said: "Why do you have to knock him unconscious?"

"Only when he falls into a coma, he is in an unconscious state, and I can use strange music to guide him." Ye Zi explained.

She is a strange music master, of course she understands the various characteristics of this business, as well as the methods of performing, and also knows when the success rate is the highest.

What Xu Bai said just now made her understand that this was a good opportunity to show herself. If she showed well, she would have to stay. If she showed poorly, she didn't know what the result would be.

Ye Zi couldn't help but shudder when she thought of Xu Bai's murderous aura last night.

"If that's the case, it's easy to deal with." Xu Bai touched his chin and nodded, "It's just a coma. There are many ways to make a person coma."

In fact, his real purpose for this trip today was here.

Xu Bai knew very well that it was definitely not just the Ou family who wanted to deal with him.

After all, the Zimu Mansion was full of difficulties, let alone the Taotu Mansion?

The closer to the capital, the greater the difficulties.

He had a guess. If the Ou family colluded with other forces, could he follow the Ou family and find out the truth?

If he really found the truth, it would be great news for him, which would be much better than having no clues at all now.

"Don't worry, sir. I will do my best and will never let you down." Ye Zi nodded vigorously, her face full of determination.

Although they had been together for a short time, Ye Zi could see that if Xu Bai really recognized her, she would not have any worries.

She was very good at judging people, especially men.

"If I stay with Mr. Xu, wouldn't it be like completing the family's mission and not being sold like a commodity?" Ye Zi thought to herself.

Of course, she knew very well that if she wanted to stay, she had to show her ability, not her beauty.

"Sir, take a rest first. I guess they will come in the afternoon." Ye Zi walked slowly behind Xu Bai, stretched out her delicate jade fingers, put them on Xu Bai's shoulders, and kneaded them gently.

Xu Bai narrowed his eyes and felt that his shoulders were very comfortable.

Of course, his heart was clear and he was just enjoying the massage.

Everything was waiting for the old housekeeper to arrive.

Taking out the Unknown Sword Scripture, Xu Bai was enjoying Ye Zi's shoulder kneading and leg beating while he was working on the progress bar. He always felt that he had already lived an extremely corrupt life.

Looking at Ye Zi who walked from behind to the front, bent down, squatted beside him and beat his legs, especially the curve of his waist and back, Xu Bai sighed secretly.

"No wonder those cadres couldn't stand the test..."

...

Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye it was already afternoon, and there was a knock on the door.

"Master Xu, Ah Fu is here to report."

At this time, Ah Fu's voice seemed much more humble, without the arrogance of the morning. Obviously, after receiving the advice from the head of the Ou family, he already understood what he was going to do.

"Open the door." Xu Bai said.

"Yes." Ye Zi came to the door, opened the door, and let Ah Fu in from outside.

Ah Fu walked in from outside with his body bent, and kept his head down, looking unusually respectful.

"I offended you a lot this morning, and I hope Master Xu will forgive me." Ah Fu apologized as soon as he entered the door.

Xu Bai waved his sleeves and said generously: "Let's not talk too much. Let's go. Let's go to a place."

Ahfu was slightly stunned and wanted to ask where it was, but seeing that Xu Bai ignored him and obviously didn't want him to know, he could only remain silent.

Xu Bai put the bag on his back again and went out directly.

Ye Zi followed Xu Bai closely. Seeing this scene, Ahfu could only grit his teeth and follow.

At this time, the sun had not yet set, and there were still many people walking casually on the street, and the vendors on both sides had not completely dispersed.

Xu Bai led them out of the scope of Taotu Mansion and came to a wilderness.

Along the way, Ahfu didn't say anything, but he was secretly alert in his heart, always feeling that something bad was going to happen.

Running to the wilderness at this time, is Xu Bai going to take action?

But after thinking carefully, Ahfu felt that it was unlikely. After all, he came out to help him with a legitimate reason. If he took action, 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 develop in the opposite direction.

"Almost, let's do it here." Xu Bai stopped and pulled out the black knife Bai Li from his waist.

The next moment, the black knife Bai Li burst into hundreds of fragments, surrounding Ah Fu.

Ah Fu was stunned on the spot, and then he reacted, his face showed a vigilant look, and a faint white light appeared on his palms.

The skin of his hands turned into a metallic color, and it didn't look like a human hand, but like a machine.

"The human soldier branch is indeed different. You should have transformed your hands into a mechanical device." Xu Bai smiled faintly.

Ah Fu said vigilantly: "Master Xu, I didn't offend you. I just said something wrong this morning. You don't need to kill me, 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 live, just listen to me."

Ah Fu could feel the power of the hundreds of fragments. Each fragment contained black light and strong wind, and was moving slowly in the sky with a breathtaking trajectory.

He was definitely not an opponent, and he would die miserably.

But he heard what Xu Bai meant. Did he mean not to kill him?

"Master Xu, isn't he going to attack me?" Ah Fu thought for a moment and said.

"Then it depends on whether you fight back. If you don't move, you won't have to worry about your life." Xu Bai walked over, raised his hand, and chopped Ah Fu's neck with a palm.

Ah Fu looked at the attacking palm, then looked at the hundreds of fragments next to him, and finally gritted his teeth and didn't fight back.

"Bang!"

A dull sound rang out, and Ah Fu was full of doubts. He only felt a slight pain in his neck, but there was no damage.

"I didn't control the strength well." Xu Bai thought secretly.

This can't be blamed on him.

Who knows how much strength is needed to knock someone out? What if he uses too much strength and directly cuts Ah Fu's neck? Wouldn't it be a big loss?

But it doesn't matter. The problem is not big at all. If it doesn't work once, there are still two times. He has a lot of time to try.

"Bang bang bang bang bang..."

A series of dull sounds rang out, and Xu Bai's strength was gradually increasing, while Ah Fu's face became more and more ugly.

What is he doing? Is he provoking him, or insulting him?

The key is that he didn't dare to fight back at all, because Xu Bai said that as long as he fought back, the hundreds of fragments might kill him instantly.

"Too much, too much!" Ah Fu clenched his fists and felt the pain in his neck.

This is equivalent to pressing him to the ground and rubbing his face with his feet. This is hitting his face!

The sense of humiliation is constantly increasing. Ah Fu's clenched fists are getting tighter and tighter. You can hear the creaking sound coming from his clenched teeth.

When the sense of humiliation gradually increases to a level, Ah Fu feels that he has reached a limit and can't bear it anymore.

Suddenly, a feeling of drowsiness came from his mind, and then he didn't know what happened, lost consciousness, and fell to the ground.

Ye Zi: "..."

Today is really an eye-opener. It is incredible that people can be knocked unconscious by such an outrageous method.

"No wonder people in the world say that Mr. Xu is very strange. Only Mr. Xu dares to use this method." Ye Zi thought to himself.

The other party didn't dare to fight back, and could only be tried by Xu Bai again and again. Only those who saw this scene in person felt particularly shocked.

Ye Zi felt that his horizons were completely opened today.

Xu Bai clapped his hands and said regretfully: "I still have to try more in the future, otherwise I have to try again and again, which is too troublesome."

Ye Zi stared with her beautiful big eyes, her face full of astonishment.

Is this troublesome? It's just waving a few times.

Of course, she didn't dare to comment, and could only bury her surprise in her heart.

"I don't know how long he will be unconscious. Let's start. By the way, can you tell whether he is really unconscious or just pretending?" Xu Bai asked.

Ye Zi came back to her senses and nodded her head vigorously, indicating that she could tell.

Seeing that Xu Bai had begun to urge her, she did not hesitate and slowly raised her white index finger, constantly crossing it in front of her.

A hazy light appeared above her ten fingers, and as Ye Zi crossed them, a strand of silk thread appeared that looked like a real thing.

"Zheng..."

Like the crisp sound of a zither, as Ye Zi's slender fingers plucked, these silk threads transmitted one note after another.

As the notes jumped, they penetrated into Ah Fu's body.

After a while, Ah Fu smiled, and he looked like he was having a beautiful dream.

Ye Zi did not stop plucking the silk thread, making the notes more obvious and very pleasant to hear.

About a minute or two passed.

Ah Fu had fallen asleep, but as the music played, he opened his mouth and uttered a series of dream words.

Xu Bai's eyes lit up slightly.

Judging from the situation, it should be successful.

As expected, Ye Zi looked at Xu Bai with a wave of eyes, and said softly: "Young Master, you can start. You ask him questions now, and he should answer truthfully in his sleep."

As a strange sound master, Ye Zi certainly knows when the time is best, so he quickly reminded.

Xu Bai nodded, came to Ah Fu, and said: "Tell me, who are the people against me?"

Ah Fu heard Xu Bai's voice and showed a struggle on his face.

Obviously, his question made Ah Fu waver.

But the next moment, Ye Zi accelerated the notes of the action of plucking the silk thread, and it became hurried in an instant.

The struggle on Ah Fu's face gradually disappeared, and he slowly opened his mouth...

Some readers said that the protagonist needs to increase the ability of anti-reconnaissance. Don't worry, I'm preparing it and it will be there soon.
