☆、Miss Maid Feisheng

"Look, look, isn't that the young master of the Lin family? Why are you begging on the street?"

"Oh, you don't know yet? Half a month ago, everyone in the Lin family died except him!"

"What? Isn't the Lin family exorcising demons? Who can kill these immortals?"

"Isn't that the monster they have been trying to get rid of..."

The chatting of the two aunts was carried into Lin Xizheng's ears by the wind, and suddenly a paper bag fell into his hands, and the voices of the two aunts drifted away.

"I've been waiting for a long time." A girl stood in front of him with a smile, squatted down and helped him open the paper bag, which contained two steamed buns.

"Thank you." Lin Xi didn't look up, and began to chew on the not-so-delicious lunch.The girl seemed to have gotten used to his unreasonable temperament, and stared at the person in front of her without saying a word.His brown clothes were no longer as glamorous and expensive as before. He hadn't taken care of them for a long time, but his face was still very clean, as if the dust was deliberately avoiding him.

The girl couldn't help but stare into God.

It wasn't until Lin Xizheng gnawed halfway through the second steamed bun that the girl suddenly woke up. She stood up abruptly, threw Lin Xizheng a sentence, "I'm going back to do the laundry," and disappeared at the corner of the street.

Brash guy.Lin Xi smiled and shook her head.

Just as they finished eating the steamed buns and were about to throw the paper bags, seven or eight menacing strong men stepped out from the crowd, obviously coming towards Lin Xizheng.The passers-by were so frightened by the aura of these people that they ran away again and again, and they all watched in horror as they surrounded Lin Xizheng in a circle.

"What? Are you going to silence it in public?" Lin Xi was sneering with her hands behind her back.

"Mr. Lin still refuses to tell the master the fatal point of the Gu carving. It is not impossible for this to happen." The big man in the middle said.

"So what if I tell you? None of you are its opponents. What's more, who knows what your master wants to do with the Red Demon Pill."

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of several strong men turned cold, and they rushed straight to Lin Xizheng regardless of others.Lin Xizheng raised his foot and kicked the strong man on the right, and jumped out of the encirclement with a light jump.

Ordinary people seldom saw a fight with such a strong smell of blood, and they stood on the sidelines watching the battle in fear and excitement.Lin Xi wanted to jump onto the eaves and escape, but the strong man he kicked away took out a kitchen knife at some point, and stood under the eaves and stared at him.

Not only this strong man, but the rest of them also held a knife in their hands.Although the martial arts are superior, but with bare hands and more than one opponent, the speed of the few people is not lower than Lin Xizheng.Lin Xizheng was soon outnumbered.A lot of physical exertion made his movements sluggish.

A person with quick eyesight and quick hands took advantage of this opening to throw the knife in his hand.Lin Xi narrowly escaped, but a wound was still drawn on his waist.

The speed of the knife did not slow down, and it slashed straight at the onlookers behind.

Amid the exclamation of the crowd, a white light flashed, and with a "dang", the trajectory of the kitchen knife was forcibly changed.

The kitchen knife was instantly photographed on the ground, and when people's eyes returned to the battlefield from the kitchen knife, the protagonist had disappeared.

The girl didn't know that there would be such a good show after she left, so she carefully pushed open the back door of the mansion, and just as it closed, Mammy's voice sounded from behind: "Chunxi! You ran out again, do you want to be boarded?" !"

Chun Xi was startled, and hurriedly begged: "I don't dare anymore, Mammy is generous, please forgive me this time!"

"That's right, with such a pretty face, it's too unreasonable to secretly go to the street to buy two small jewelry, and the mother is going to beat the board." A person suddenly approached them.

"I……"

"Miss Chunxi is this, right? It's the first time we met, and I'm going to Hua Jiangyu." Hua Jiangyu spread out the white fan in his hand, pretending to fan the wind even though it wasn't hot, but he also had the image of a bachelor.

"Master Hua, she is a servant, how can a servant have any love for beauty..."

"Isn't she going to 'become' the eldest lady soon?" Hua Jiangyu pointed at Chun Xi, smiling so chillingly.

Are you talking about me?Chunxi was even more puzzled, Mammy was speechless, gave her a glare, and left without looking back.

Seeing the figure of Mammy leaving, Chun Xi felt for a moment that compared to her, the man in white in front of her was more frightening.

"That...'becoming' the eldest lady...what does it mean?" Chun Xi swallowed and asked.

"That...that means 'sacrifice to the monster as a lady'." Hua Jiangyu smiled slightly, the fan covered nearly half of his face, and his eyes seemed to have double shadows under the shadow.

"And, my task is to monitor the eldest lady before then."

Chun Xi took a step back unconsciously, but Hua Ning Yu also quickly stepped forward: "Then, please follow me."

Such a person exudes a dangerous aura all over his body.

Chunxi hesitated, but was stared at by the other party when she wanted to escape.Hua Jiangyu smiled, turned and walked to the second floor.

"Although I haven't been rough on women, it doesn't mean I don't know how to do it. The girl should follow up quickly." Hua Jiangyu didn't turn her head, and her voice came from the front.Chun Xi took a breath, but followed quickly.

When they arrived at the young lady's room on the second floor, Hua Jiangyu stopped and signaled Chunxi to go in.Even though she was unwilling in every possible way, Chun Xi walked in slowly.

Unexpectedly, Hua Jiangyu closed the door suddenly, and the sunlight reflected his shadow on the door, making him look even taller.

"Master Hua?" Chun Xi hurriedly turned around and slammed on the door vigorously, but the door remained motionless.

"Miss, take a good rest these days, so you don't have to go out." Hei Ying remained motionless outside the door, "Your 'friend' will be taken care of."

After Hua Jiangyu finished speaking, he tilted his head and smiled again, but, I'm afraid there will be a fight, right?

The author has something to say: the number of words in each update is small, and it will be updated irregularly, but it will not take too long, the first part of training writing!

☆, only after a fight can we speak well

"That, thank you." Lin Xi was taking the medicine from the man in black and unbuttoning his clothes. The wound on his waist was still bleeding thinly.

Just at the critical moment, it was he who cut off the knife and took himself away from the scene.The two temporarily rested in an abandoned thatched hut.

The man leaned against the door and didn't answer.

After dressing up, Lin Xi got up and was about to go out.

I don't know if those people will catch up.

Just as he was thinking this way, the man suddenly put his sword in front of Lin Xi.

"You can't go out."

This is the man's first words.

Lin Xizheng frowned: "Why?"

"..." The man said nothing.

"I understand……"

Lin Xizheng calmed down his tone, but in the next second his face suddenly showed a murderous look, and he bent down and pointed the knife in his right hand to the man's abdomen. The man had quick eyes and quick hands, and quickly blocked it with his free left hand.The clinker was just a feint, and Lin Xizheng took the opportunity to kick the man's sword-holding wrist.The sword in the man's hand was blown straight to the corner of the thatched cottage.Lin Xi was quickly bypassing him and escaping out the door. Unexpectedly, the latter directly hit his neck with a knife.

Lin Xi came to a near stop: "...the response was good."

"You too." The man said calmly behind him.

"May I know your name?"

"Tang Chen, the exorcist."

Lin Xizheng froze.

Exorcist...?

Lin Xi was laughing at herself, and obediently walked back into the house.

"Since you are here to trap me, it must be very boring, right?" Lin Xi was just finding an open space to sit down. Fortunately, the action just now did not open the wound, "Want to hear a story? Don...?"

"Tang Chen."

Chunxi carefully broke a small hole in the window, looked outside the room, the setting sun was shining towards this side.

She opened the door a small crack, and before she stretched out one foot, her eyes suddenly darkened.

"If the girl goes out, I will be very troublesome." Looking up, Hua Jiangyu was dressed in a plain robe, holding a white fan, and stood in front of Chunxi with a smile.

With the light behind him, this person's aura seemed to be stronger.Chun Xi couldn't help but take a step back.

"I'm... a little worried..." Chun Xi lowered her head.

"Worried about Mr. Lin?"

Hua Jiangyu looked amiable with a smile on his face, but his actions were very tough.Without any explanation, he closed the door again, and continued to talk to Chunxi through the door.

The man seemed a bit bored.

Chun Xi complained silently, and sat on the ground leaning against the door.

"Master Hua..."

"What's the matter girl?"

"Can you tell me...why do you lock me up here?" Chun Xi asked cautiously and then immediately shut up, listening carefully to the voice of the person outside the door.

"Master loves his daughter so much, and he is eager to refine medicine, so he sacrificed the girl in the name of the eldest lady in the name of marriage, and asked the demon of the stone forest to Yu Yaodan to refine the rare medicine."

Words and sentences are extremely clear.Chunxi was dumbfounded when she heard it, and didn't recover from it for a long time.

Although Hua Jiangyu's voice is magnetic and always gives people warmth, it also makes Chunxi cold from head to toe at this moment.

"But girl, don't always think about running away, or I won't be able to explain it to you." Hua Jiangyu changed the subject and resumed his previous smile, "There are still a few days, girl can knock on the door if you need anything. I will try my best to satisfy you.”

The people inside the door stopped moving, Hua Jiangyu shrugged, turned around and jumped down to the second floor.

Surveillance is really not suitable for this kind of thing...

The only peach tree in the center of the courtyard covers most of the open space under its branches, which can be said to be extremely lush.However, in March in Yangchun, there is not a single peach blossom on the lush green branches.

"Poor Kazuki..." Hua Jiangyu murmured, walking towards the master's room.

Pushing open the door, the master really stood behind the desk, staring at the portrait of the eldest lady on the wall, without even noticing that Hua Jiangyu came in.

Hua Jiangyu took a closer look and found that the portrait was [-]% similar to Chunxi, no wonder the master took Chunxi as a sacrifice.

"Master, Miss Chunxi is already in Miss's room." Hua Jiangyu said softly, and then Master Zheng Yuan nodded, turned around and said, "Okay, keep an eye on her and don't let her run away. After three days, use If she changes the Gu Diao Yao Pill, all the medicinal materials will be ready."

"The master is so sure that the Gu carving will hand over the demon pill?" Hua Jiangyu transformed into a white fan out of nowhere, with an evil smile on his face.

Zheng Yuan only gave him a cold look, and said: "Lan'er said, Gu Diao likes girls from rich families the most, so what's a mere demon pill? You have a lot of problems."

Hua Jiangyu put away his fan, still looking like he didn't want to be beaten: "Since the master ordered, I won't say anything, just..." His eyes swept over the large and small medicine jars on the table, and there were some broken medicine jars scattered beside the medicine jars. peach petals.

"It's a pity that the Peach Blossom Essence has been cultivated for a hundred years, and I will never see the Peach Blossom again."

After finishing speaking, Hua Jiangyu backed out and closed the door by the way.

After Hua Jiangyu came out of Mr. Zheng's study, he walked towards the back door of Zheng's mansion.The moss on the door and the surrounding weeds showed that no one had been here for a long time.

Pushing open the back door was a hill, Hua Jiangyu climbed over the hill alone, and stopped in front of a tombstone.

The tombstone reads - "Tomb of Zheng Tianlan, Miss Zheng's family"

"It's really strange, the eldest lady is here~"

☆、The meaning of living

On the rocky mountain, a group of people walked slowly in the wind, each with a weapon in their hands.

"Zheng'er, the lair of the gu carving is right ahead. Let's go and eliminate harm for the people." Lin Xizheng's father held a long sword with a serious expression on his face.Behind Lin's father, Lin Xizheng, Lin's mother, and the servants of Lin's family held their breath and moved step by step to Fanghu in front.

The calm surface of the lake reflects the towering jagged stones around it. Who would have thought that this was actually the lair of a man-eating monster?After Father Lin threw the blood bag in his hand into the lake, the water suddenly burst into splashes, and everyone was shocked.I saw a monster with eagle body and horns jumping out of the huge water splash!

"Go!" With Father Lin's order, the servants rushed over without hesitation, and Lin Xizheng was no exception.

However, the regenerative power of Gu carvings is beyond Father Lin's imagination.The hand that was just cut off immediately grew a new one, and it seemed that the attack power was getting higher and higher.Gu Diao was enraged, with a wave of his hand, more than half of the servants fell down.

The Lin family has been exorcising demon masters for generations, and although their family members are lowly in status, they are all very skilled.In the blink of an eye, flesh and blood flew everywhere, which Lin Xizheng had never imagined.

"Don't be afraid! Stare at the demon pill on its forehead and hit it!" Father Lin gave an order, and the rest of the servants shouted and rushed up after him.

After all, the name of the century-old evil beast is not for nothing, and a group of demon extermination masters just added a few more corpses.Father Lin also lost an arm in the chaos, he hurriedly bandaged it and continued to move forward.

Seeing that the situation was unfavorable, Mother Lin hurriedly pulled back Lin Xizheng who was about to rush forward and hid in the stone pile.

"Seriously! Listen carefully, our family might end up here today, and the Lin family can't stop. Now, run back without looking back!"

"Mother! How could I do this!" Lin Xizheng flicked his sleeves angrily, but was helplessly caught by his mother, as if he had exhausted all his strength.

"How could I leave you guys behind..." Lin Xizheng softened her tone when she saw Lin's mother looking straight at him, but she refused to listen.The people who can still move behind are desperate, but the mother who has taught me for more than 20 years in front of me tells me to run away...

Mother Lin sighed and said: "Zheng'er, do you know why we came to get rid of this Gu Eagle?"

"Because it eats people."

"Not only that, it will take on human form, play tricks on people's hearts, and make people despair." Lin's mother touched Lin Xizheng's head, her eyes could not bear it, "Your two younger brothers, as well as Lan'er from the Zheng family, were all killed by it. I ate it."

"Your father said that even if we risk our old life, we must die with it and avenge the young man."

After finishing speaking, Mother Lin pushed Lin Xizheng away, shouted and rushed forward.

The mother seems to be crying.

After hearing the news of the death of her two younger brothers, she did not see any mood swings in her mother.

Lin Xizheng originally thought that her mother had no feelings.

Gritting her teeth, Lin Xi turned around.

Behind him is the screaming servant, and in front of him is the deserted Lin Mansion.

It was just unexpected that after the Lin family left, Zheng Yuan announced to the people that the Lin family was destroyed and that the mansion belonged to the Zheng family.

Lin Xizheng was shocked, and wanted to rush forward to question Zheng Yuan, but found that he couldn't even get through the door of his own house, nor the Zheng family's.

Passers-by said that he abandoned his family and his identity as a demon exorcist, so he deserved not to be able to enter the house.

In the beginning, he would beat anyone who said such things, but the result was to attract more abuse.

Later he gave up. I was a villain who ran away, and I shouldn't have continued to live.

Perhaps with or without herself, the Lin family should be cut off.

Even though the body of the exorcist is stronger than ordinary people, Lin Xizheng has reached his limit without eating or drinking for a few days.

His eyes could no longer see clearly, and he was sitting weakly by the abandoned street, but suddenly water splashed on his face.

Opening his eyes in a daze, he found that it was a girl who was only in her teens.Judging by her attire, she should be a maidservant from a wealthy family, with a basket full of steamed buns beside her.

"Are you still awake? I heard that you can't irrigate people who are hungry and dizzy, so...you don't mind if you sprinkle some on your face?" The girl asked carefully, and took out a handkerchief to wipe the water off Lin Xizheng's face. .

Lin Xizheng was so hungry that he had no energy, so he just shook his head.The girl breathed a sigh of relief, took out a steamed bun from the basket, dipped some water in the kettle, and handed it to Lin Xizheng.Lin Xi was hesitating for a while, but still took it and ate it in small bites.

"Aren't you hungry?" Seeing him eating like this, the girl couldn't help being a little puzzled.

"Eat too fast and you will choke." Lin Xizheng said slowly, "Don't you know who I am? Give me something to eat?"

"Young Master Lin." The girl smiled slightly, "Hello, Young Master Lin, I am the maid of the Zheng family."

After finishing speaking, there was another "ah", and said: "Sorry, I overstepped, young master, please don't care about it, I will leave immediately."

"Wait." Lin Xizheng called to her, "I'm not the young master now, call me Lin Xizheng."

Chunxi was taken aback, nodded slightly, and handed Lin Xizheng another steamed bun: "Eat another one. As long as you are alive, there is still hope."

Lin Xizheng suddenly thought of her mother who was smiling miserably.

"I'm going back, Lin...Xizheng, eat slowly, I'll come tomorrow!" Chunxi picked up the bamboo basket, waved to Lin Xizheng, and left.

Lin Xi was looking at the two steamed buns in his hand.

Living, it seems, is not bad.

☆, on the boss who has no sense of existence

The desolate stone forest is terribly silent. In the single gray and white picture, a bright red sedan chair is slowly moving forward.Except for the bright red, there is no sign of "festivity".

The wind was blowing silently, bringing the breath of death in bursts. The workers who carried the sedan chairs lowered their heads one by one, put the sedan chairs by a lake, and left in a hurry.At this moment and here, only Chunxi is left sitting alone in the sedan chair.

Waves gradually appeared on the surface of the water, and a man in white rose from Hu Zhongzhong.

When the man saw the sedan chair, he sneered and walked to the shore.

Chunxi heard the footsteps getting closer and closed her eyes tightly.The curtain was pulled open, and the man looked at Chun Xi carefully, when he suddenly heard the sound of a long sword being unsheathed behind him.

The man turned around quickly, and a sword really went straight into the ground where he was just now.

Lin Xi was pulling out his sword and staring fiercely at the man in front of him.

The man shrugged and walked slowly towards Lin Xizheng.And Lin Xizheng was unrelenting, staring at the right time and stabbing again.The man jumped sideways, and was surprised that there was another person behind him. He turned around immediately, and Tang Chen appeared here without a sound. The object in his hand stabbed the man precisely, but the man reacted very quickly. With a little force on his left foot, he turned around and walked towards the sedan chair. recede everywhere.

When he retreated, he realized that Tang Chen was holding nothing but a fan.

Chunxi heard the sound of fighting outside, not knowing why, and wanted to take off the hijab.Suddenly a person entered the sedan chair, held Chun Xi's shoulders with both hands, and whispered in her ear: "Don't open it, don't come out if you hear anything."

Mr. Hua!

Chun Xi's heart trembled and she nodded slightly.

As soon as Hua Jiangyu got out of the sedan chair, he saw the man using his demon power, as if he wanted to split the sedan chair in two.Hua Jiangyu quickly approached the man, grabbed him with his left hand, and blocked his attack with his right hand.

The man couldn't dodge in time, this blow cut through Hua Jiangyu's arm, and the air was filled with the smell of blood.A lot of blood was sprinkled on the man's face, the man's face changed drastically, and he hurried back to the shore.

"you……"

Before he finished speaking, the man's figure disappeared, and in a blink of an eye it became what Lin Xizheng had seen before.

"Gu carvings are good at changing. When they touch human blood, they can transform into prototypes, reveal demon pills, and cannibalize people." Hua Jiangyu said as he pulled off his sleeves to bandage the wound.

Gu Diao seemed to let out a laugh, and there was a faint red light on his forehead.

In just a moment, Tang Chen disappeared.The next moment, he appeared on Gu Eagle's forehead, and the sword in his hand stabbed at the red light without hesitation.For a moment, the world seemed to stand still, the smoke and dust gradually dissipated, and the Gu sculptures were also reduced to ashes.

Lin Xi was staring blankly at his hands.

When Tang Chen took the sword from his hand just now, he didn't see his movements clearly.

Tang Chen landed, threw the fan to Hua Jiangyu, turned around and patted Lin Xizheng on the shoulder.

"Go call her."

Lin Xizheng nodded repeatedly, the sedan chair was well protected, even the flowers on it did not fall off.Lin Xi was heaving a sigh of relief, and Chun Xi was also sitting in it, holding her skirt tightly with both hands.

"Chunxi," Lin Xizheng raised her hand and lifted the hijab, "It's okay, let's go."

Chunxi looked up in surprise and found that it was Lin Xizheng.All kinds of emotions came to my heart for a while, and tears flowed out uncontrollably.

"I thought... I thought I was going to die..."

Lin Xizheng didn't know how to comfort her, so he was in a hurry and had to hug her into his arms.

"I'm still thinking, if I die...no one will give you food...what should you do..."

"...Let's go together." Lin Xizheng seemed to have made up his mind.Chun Xi raised her head and looked at him: "Where are you going?"

"Anywhere is fine, you don't have to go back to Zheng's house, follow me, we are together." Lin Xi was wiping away her tears with her hands, and said softly.

From now on, we are all together.

"Cough." Hua Jiangyu coughed dryly from behind, "Excuse me. Mr. Lin, our work is over, and you don't need to be restrained anymore. Let's go, I hope we don't see you again."

Lin Xizheng turned her head and bowed to him, "Thank you."

"Let's go." Tang Chen passed by them and said to Hua Jiangyu.

"Zheng Yuan, do you want to refine the rebirth pill with the demon pill of the Gu carving?" Lin Xizheng asked hastily.

"Who knows? Maybe someone else is obstructing it, just for a good show?" Hua Jiangyu blinked at him and caught up with Tang Chen.

Lin Xi was watching the two leave, tightly holding Chun Xi's hand, and said, "Let's go."

Chunxi smiled sweetly,

"it is good."

On the way back, Hua Jiangyu kept thinking about the pain in his wound, but Tang Chen pretended not to hear it.

"Why are you ignoring me?" After receiving no response for a long time, Hua Jiangyu jumped in front of Tang Chen, raised his right hand, and the rag wrapped around his arm was dyed red, "My injuries are all like this!"

"I insist on rushing up." Tang Chen glanced at him coldly, "Have you thought about how to explain to Zheng Yuan?"

"That's not in a hurry, it's a big deal that you won't be paid."

"Then you sleep in the wild tonight, don't send it off."

"Hero! I have something to say! In fact, I have already prepared a reason, and I will definitely be able to deceive Zheng Yuan!"

"..."

"But go back to the hotel first, change your clothes, it's dirty."

"..."

☆, there seems to be an inside story

After coming out of the hotel, Hua Jiangyu changed his clothes into a light green robe, the belt was casually tied around his waist, and his waist-length hair was also hung behind him. The whole person seemed to have walked out of a landscape painting, only from the loose The bandages that were faintly exposed from the sleeves of his clothes showed that he had been injured.The right hand is still holding the plain white fan.

"By the way, what did you and Mr. Lin talk about in the thatched cottage? I haven't come to see me for a few days. I'm very interested." Hua Jiangyu suddenly came over, put his right hand on Tang Chen's left shoulder, and whispered in his ear. asked with a smirk on his face.

"Why did I look for you?" Tang Chen asked back, but didn't notice the faint white light from Hua Jiangyu's right hand.

Hua Jiangyu quickly withdrew his hand, fanned and walked aside.

"Hmph, forget it if you don't tell me."

"The Lin family has been exorcising demons for several generations."

Lin Xi was sitting in the middle of a pile of thatch, while Tang Chen was leaning against the door frame holding a sword.

"The Zheng family is different. They have been alchemists for several generations. The purpose of exorcising demons is to eliminate monsters, while alchemists take out the demon pills in monsters for their own use - alchemy. The pills they refine are usually used for curing diseases. And there is a kind of demon pill, the red demon pill that only bloodthirsty monsters can have, and it is said that the pill refined from this demon pill can revive human beings."

"Zheng Tianlan's death has dealt a great blow to Zheng Yuan, he probably wants to use this demon pill to revive his daughter."

"Is this true?" Tang Chen couldn't believe it.

"I don't know. After all, few people try it, and it may not be successful." Lin Xizheng shrugged, "Zheng Yuan probably has nowhere to go. He took all of my family's property, and it is probably because of my family's ancestral monster record, which records Thousands of monsters."

"And I'm also desperate?" Lin Xi smiled self-deprecatingly, "The Lin family was destroyed, and the former young master became a beggar."

"Since people are dead, those who are alive should work harder to live." Tang Chen replied coldly.

Lin Xizheng was taken aback, and smiled wryly: "You're right, a girl said the same thing to me. But, from the way you look, it seems like you don't know about that rumor?"

"?" Tang Chen frowned, not knowing what he was referring to.

"Evil exorcisers are short-lived." Lin Xizheng spit out these six words slowly, and then looked at Tang Chen, "Almost all exorcists cannot die. When we decide to become exorcists, we must be prepared that we may die at any time I don’t want to be a demon master because I want to live and stay with the most important person until I grow old.”

"Do you have that awareness?"

The last question Lin Xi asked with a serious face made Tang Chen come back to his senses in an instant, and found that they had already arrived at the door of Zheng's house.

The door of Zheng's house was ajar, and there was no sound from inside.

Dead silence.

"?" Tang Chen pushed open the door in doubt, while Hua Jiangyu who was beside him obviously hadn't noticed the abnormality, and whistled with a relaxed expression.

The door on the left was pushed open by Tang Chen, and what came into view was a large area of ​​red!Tang Chen's expression immediately became serious.

Seeing that Tang Chen didn't go in for a long time, Hua Jiangyu approached him curiously: "What's wrong?"

As soon as he asked, Hua Jiangyu caught a glimpse of the bloody scene.But Hua Jiangyu didn't stand like Tang Chen, he quickly ran to Master Zheng's study.

"Boom—" The door was kicked open roughly, and as expected, there was also a very obvious splash of blood in the study.

"Zheng Yuan was killed." Tang Chen came in a hurry, Hua Jiangyu told him, and suddenly hugged his head again: "What should we do? Who will pay us? The excuses we prepared so hard are useless!"

Tang Chen patted his hand impatiently, and said, "...report to the official?"

"No, it's such a hassle. Zheng Yuan deserves what happened to him." Hua Jiangyu refused without hesitation, and went to the desk to search.

"Since people are dead, it would be a pity for our work not to take something. Let's take something valuable, such as paintings... gems..."

"..."

"Ah!" There was a scream in the courtyard, presumably a passer-by saw the tragedy when they saw the door was open and wanted to remind them.

Tang Chen had never done theft before, so he was guilty at first, and when he heard the screams, he immediately mentioned Hua Jiangyu and jumped out of the window to escape.

"Ah, my painting!" Hua Jiangyu was pulled away unexpectedly, and Zheng Tianlan's painting rolled down from his arms.

The picture scroll rolled away on the floor, and a girl with a shy face but extraordinary temperament slowly unfolded it along with the picture scroll.I saw a line of small characters "Portrait of Zheng Tianlan and Ji, Miss Zheng's family" vertically in the lower left corner.

A completely different appearance from Chunxi.

"Tsk tsk, the Zheng family still has so many treasures." A woman walked in from the door, bent down and picked up the portrait.The woman is estimated to be only 16 years old. Her long hair is tied behind her head, and her unique eyes are bent, but there is another meaning.

Like the eyes of a fox.

"When destroying other people's families, you must know that your own family may also be destroyed."

The author has something to say: The heroine is here~ she is actually a cute child~

☆, Lai'an Building

"Selling steamed stuffed buns, do you want to buy anything?"

"Brother, do you want to buy biscuits?"

In the bustling bazaar, there was shouting all around.Hua Jiangyu waved his hands with a smile, rejecting the delicious biscuits.

Tang Chen was dressed in black standard martial arts clothes, with a long sword on his back and a small knife with tassels pinned to his waist, as if he had an expression of "the person next to me owes me money, please don't mess with me", lying innocently on the gun Hua Jiangyu next to him looks very much like an elegant person: scholarly hair style, a plain fan in his hand, loose white and green robe, and bandages that are faintly visible in the long sleeves - the injury he suffered last time has not yet completely good.One black and one white, two people who are obviously out of tune, but they also become a different kind of scenery when they walk together.

Passing through the crowded crowd, the road becomes wider, and a tall brothel on the left is very eye-catching, with a polished wooden threshold and a plaque decorated with red flowers, with two big characters "Lai'an" written on it.The sound of various musical instruments could be faintly heard inside, and there was an endless stream of people entering and leaving here, and they all exuded the atmosphere of literati and poets.As soon as Tang Chen and Hua Jiangyu stepped in, a girl in a goose-yellow skirt was holding a pipa and invited them to go up to the second floor.

"There are not enough guest rooms below, so I invite the two young masters to come with me." The girl lowered her head and closed her eyes, her appearance was delicate and dignified.

"Okay, okay." Hua Jiangyu smiled and took Tang Chen's hand and followed her. "Your business in this brothel is good, and the girls and customers there are quite well-bred."

"My lord, you are joking. The sisters in Lai'an Building are all performers but not their bodies." The girl held the pipa in one hand, and opened the door of a room with the other. "please."

Tang Chen sat down with black lines all over his face.From the moment he was pulled into this brothel until now, he still hasn't figured out Hua Jiangyu's intentions.The blue veins in his hands jumped and jumped, but he held back.Drink tea non-stop only when the girl plays the pipa.

The song is over.

Hua Jiangyu clapped her hands and fanned her.

"The girl has superb piano skills, Hua admires it!"

"My lord has won the prize." The girl smiled, "Is there any song you want to hear?"

"No, no, I want to see the proprietress." Hua Jiangyu waved his hands repeatedly and smiled.

The girl's face changed, Hua Jiangyu explained: "Don't worry, girl, you play very well. We just have something to do with the proprietress. But I can praise you to her."

The girl hesitated for a few moments, and glanced behind Hua Jiangyu. Tang Chen was drinking tea with a blue face, and his anger spread here.

The girl picked up the pipa, bowed slightly, and went out.

"You shouldn't be so serious." Hua Jiangyu shook his head, snatched the teacup from Tang Chen's hand, and took a sip by himself.

Tang Chen didn't care, and just asked, "Why are you looking for the lady boss?"

"Hey, that's a long story. Anyway, she should be my employer..."

"I still thought who could be so rude in my place, and I was going to come to educate me, but I didn't expect it to be you."

Before Hua Jiangyu finished speaking, a girl pushed open the door.The two looked up at her. The light yellow chest-length skirt looked very luxurious, and a yellow beaded bracelet was worn on the right wrist.Hearty laughter is different from ordinary gentle women.She is obviously 16 years old, and she has quite enough aura as a female boss.

Tang Chen was stunned when he heard the voice, and his pupils shrank even more when someone came in to see the whole picture.It's just that there was no movement in his hands, and Hua Jiangyu, whose back was turned to him, didn't seem to notice anything unusual.

"It's nothing to do, I'm here to ask if you have any errands." Hua Jiangyu waved at the woman, but the woman didn't respond, and focused on the man behind him.

"Is this the companion you were talking about?" the woman asked, bending over to see Tang Chen's face.

Tang Chen remained motionless, not knowing whether he was nervous or at a loss.

"Are you...Brother Tang Chen?" The woman asked uncertainly, pushed Hua Jiangyu away, and said pleasantly after seeing Tang Chen: "It's really Brother Tang Chen! Where have you been this year? Why did you leave without saying anything?" gone?"

"Stop—" Hua Jiangyu squeezed between the two of them, "Boss Qiu Jing, although I didn't know you knew each other, but at least he is my companion now. We are here to ask about serious matters. Let's let go of the household stuff first." On one side—"

"Go, go, go," Qiu Jing made a gesture to hit Hua Jiangyu, but finally sat across from the two of them, "There is a commission, Brother Tang Chen, do you want to go too?"

Tang Chen nodded.

"Okay, I'll tell you all later, now, lend me this person here first!"

As she said that, Qiu Jing blinked her eyes, and dragged Hua Jiangyu out of the room regardless of Hua Jiangyu's protest.

The door was gently shut, Tang Chen looked at the tea that was no longer spitting out hot air, and said slowly, "...Sorry."

On the other side, Qiu Jing dragged Hua Jiangyu to the third floor, which is the top floor.The difference from downstairs is that it is extremely quiet here, and not even a single person can be seen.Qiu Jing went straight to the room at the end of the corridor, and sat on a cushion with a screen behind her, and she supported her chin with her hand.Hua Jiangyu closed the door, sat down slowly, and looked like he was doing nothing.

"Didn't I ask you to find him and send me a letter? Why did you bring him here without saying a word?" Qiu Jing asked as soon as Hua Jiangyu sat down.

"I want to give you a surprise." Hua Jiangyu smiled, imitating her and resting her chin with her hand.

Qiu Jing smiled, and slapped her backhand, Hua Jiangyu was already prepared,
