Gao Cai stammered for a long time. His eyes secretly glanced at Xiao Hong and the young madam beside him. He put his hands together and took two steps forward. He lowered his head and stood in front of the butler without saying a word.
The butler patted Gao Cai's shoulder and silently said," It's not embarrassing to be a 16-year-old virgin."
Then, he looked at the black-robed Taoist behind him for instructions. The latter nodded, and the butler felt relieved. It was finally my turn to get off work.
"Alright, alright. Gao Cai and Zuo Xiaohan stay behind to listen to your orders. The rest of you, get lost quickly. Don't delay Master Immortal's important matters here.”
The others didn't suspect anything and quickly left.
As the secret was kept well, everyone thought that the Taoist priest was invited to exorcise evil spirits for the Zhou residence and also to find a good place to bury their young master. They did not think too much about it.
After the group of people left with the butler, Xiao Hong and the young madam were revealed.
The black-robed Taoist also called Gao Cai over and intentionally gave him a few instructions. While they were talking, Zuo Xiaohan quickly moved in front of Xiao Hong.
"Young Madam, Xiao Hong, leave quickly. This is not a place to stay.”
Zuo Xiaohan winked at Xiao Hong.
The latter looked at the white-clothed woman with difficulty and replied in a low voice,"Young Lady wants to send Young Master on his last journey.”
"A hammer…I'm sorry, Young Madam. I'm not being disrespectful to you, nor am I targeting Young Master. Listen to me, it's really not safe here.”
"I will find you when I have time."
Before she left, Zuo Xiaohan gave Xiao Hong a meaningful look and pinched her arm as if she was hinting at something.
He didn't know if the other party understood his other meaning.
After taking two steps, Xiao Hong suddenly ran back to Zuo Xiaohan with her little hands clenched. She lowered her head and looked embarrassed." Let's talk about it after we're done with work. We'll arrange another time. Don't worry about our matters…"
Zuo Xiaohan was speechless.
After sending Xiao Hong and the young mistress off, the bamboo forest returned to silence.
Zuo Xiaohan walked around the coffin, picked up the shovel and two bamboo baskets on the ground, and came to a piece of black soil that had been circled by the black-clothed Taoist.
The figure of the black-robed Daoist had already disappeared. It was unknown what he had said to Gao Cai, but it made the other party's face filled with joy.
"Little Han, the immortal master praised me for my talent and intelligence. He told me to perform well and intended to take me as his disciple.”
Gao Cai's childish face was filled with excitement. He snatched the shovel from Zuo Xiaohan's hand and started digging.
Zuo Xiaohan was stunned for a moment. He felt that this sentence was very familiar.
The black-robed Daoist had said the same thing to him.
Thinking of this, a chill rose in his heart.
"Could it be that this old man says this to everyone?”
"Or does he have other motives?"
Zuo Xiaohan couldn't help but feel alert.
At this moment, the black-robed Taoist had returned to the thatched cottage, leaving behind Gao Cai, who seemed to have been injected with stimulants, and Zuo Xiaohan, who was silent. The two of them each held a shovel and dug a hole in the black soil under their feet.
Zuo Xiaohan had been working in the office for a while, and he seemed to have caught a key clue in his mind. In the afternoon, when he was guarding outside the hall, he seemed to have overheard something.
"If it doesn't work, then I can only use the blood of a child to replace the blood of a crow.”
Could the boy's blood be referring to him and Gao Cai?
"Hiss…"
Zuo Xiaohan shuddered.
He stole a glance at Gao Cai beside him. After a while, his face was covered in a layer of sweat, causing his cheeks to turn red.
Under the illumination of the torch, it glowed a bright red.
Gao Cai was extremely excited, and he wanted to perform well in front of the black-robed Taoist. In just a moment, he had already dug a deep hole the size of a toilet bowl under his feet.
"No, I have to save myself!"
That old bastard used the bait of taking in disciples to trick Gao Cai and me into digging a hole for him. In the end, we might be the ones buried inside.
Zuo Xiaohan had already prepared for the worst.
In Reliance Town, where the Zhou family ruled the world, it was easy for two servants to die.
Perhaps Zhou Donglai had already reached a secret agreement with this Daoist, treating him and Gao Cai as medicine triggers that could be sacrificed at any time as long as he could revive his only son.
"This old thing will die a horrible death!”
Zuo Xiaohan was sold to the Zhou family by his parents when he was young. He signed a 15-year contract.
Gao Cai's situation was similar to his.
At that time, he only needed to ask the coroner of the yamen for some money and food to cover up this matter.
Without the two of them, there wouldn't be a single splash in Reliance Town.
"Gao Cai, are you really still a virgin?”
Zuo Xiaohan glanced at the thatched hut and deliberately raised his voice.
"Haha…"
Gao Cai gave a silly smile and scratched his back." My family is poor, so I've brought back my annual salary on time. My sister is getting married this year, so I've asked the man for some betrothal gifts. Next year, we'll renovate our house. My parents are hiring a matchmaker to help me arrange a marriage.”
"What about you? Could it be that he is also a virgin?"
Gao Cai stood rooted to the ground, his hands on the shovel, his face filled with longing for the future.
Who would have thought that the topic would change to Zuo Xiaohan?
Zuo Xiaohan smiled bitterly." I'll only tell you this secret secretly…I've already 'figured it out' a long time ago.”
