Beautiful lady, why not follow the thief

Taking advantage of Tongque's departure, Yan Heng got up from the bed again, took the hot towel she put down, washed his face, and moved his body in the room.

After a while, the copper sparrow still hadn't come back, so he simply opened the window, leaned against the edge of the window to take a breath of fresh air, and stretched out his hand to fiddle with a branch of red apricot lying in front of the window.

Immediately afterwards, he heard a chuckle from the apricot tree: "Master Yan Shao, you are really elegant."

The man sat casually among the branches, stepped on the tree trunk, propped his elbows on his knees, and tilted his head to look at Yan Heng.He squeezed a handful of apricot petals and threw them on Yan Heng's head teasingly. Unexpectedly, Yan Heng looked up at him at this moment, and those petals scattered all over his face.

Yan Heng was choked by the smell of pollen, covered his nose and turned his head to cough a few times.But the instigator was stunned, unable to speak for a while.

He stared at Yan Heng for a moment, then turned his eyes a little blushing.I thought to myself, why do those eyes seem to have horizontal waves?

The reunion across flowers and water, the person who lowered his head and the person who raised his head switched places, both of them were incredibly quiet.

It was Yan Heng who spoke first, humming: "It's you."

It's really strange, Wenyulou is a defense arranged by Feige, so it can't find a mere beggar.Why did Tongque catch his tricks so many times?I can't believe it.He almost suspected that Tongque went out for a walk on purpose.

The little beggar on the tree also found it funny. He, a big living man of unknown origin, jumped over the guards and appeared in front of Yan Heng. It was time for others to signal or call someone, and he should also take a defensive gesture. , but this Lord Yan didn't know if he was stupid or not, and he didn't react at all. Isn't he afraid that he is here to take his life?

Yan Heng waited for a long time but did not wait for the other party to open his mouth to express his intention to come, so he could only ask: "What is your intention for coming here without invitation? It can't be that I didn't give you money last time. This time I asked you to come to Yulou, right?" .”

The little beggar's eyelids twitched: "You really remember me."

"I'm a person who holds grudges. I can't forget anyone who hurt me." Yan Heng said with a half-smile.An ordinary theft naturally cannot be called "harming him", but Yan Heng guessed that this person understood what he was talking about.

The little beggar didn't hide his knowledge, turned his head and acquiesced, after a long while, he groaned and said, "Didn't I come to apologize to you? It was an accident. Please be clear, I'm not from Miaowu. Who knows what you have in your wallet?" Don't blame me for not putting money in it. Besides, you'll be fine if you get hurt, it just hurts a little..." Xiao Xie touched his nose, feeling a little bit wrong.

Yan Heng smiled slightly: "Apologize? No one would apologize like this."

Xiao Xie said: "Isn't it because you, Master Yan, are stingy? You won't let me in."

"Hey, are you here to apologize or to frame me? Who knows you're here?" Yan Heng asked inexplicably.

"You don't know?" Xiao Xie raised her voice, "You! It's time for your concierge to change!"

He rolled his eyes angrily, thinking that he was really stupid just now, after waiting outside the door for a long time, he still grabbed the petals like a boudoir and asked: Is he angry with me?He suspects me?He looks down on me?He doesn't remember me?Why hasn't he seen me yet?

Stupid home.

Yan Heng secretly smiled.

Teenage heart.

"Okay then, you return the purse to me, and then you can go." Yan Heng spread his palms towards him.

The young man stared again, frowning as if struggling with something, clutching the purse in his hands, as if to give it or not, and said, "Didn't you hear me? I'm here to apologize! I've indirectly hurt you." Sorry for the injury."

"I know." Yan Heng nodded and shook his hand, "Give it back to me."

"You haven't accepted my apology yet."

Yan Heng laughed "poof": "Okay, I accept it, give it back to me."

"So casual?" The little beggar frowned, "Not sincere at all."

Yan Heng really didn't know what to say now, he looked at him helplessly, and shook his palm again.The little beggar slapped his knee hard, and said, "I stole the purse with my own ability, why should I give it back to you? No!"

Master Yan Shao sighed deeply, withdrew his hand, resisted the urge to destroy the elegance, took a step back, and closed the window with a "slap".

The little beggar slid down the branch to catch the window sill, kicked the window open with his feet, and people followed him into the house.

Yan Heng seemed to remember something, so he couldn't help but glanced at his legs. His ragged clothes were still the same as that day, and he didn't know if he had no clothes to change or no time to change them. It was stained on the trousers and hadn't been washed, so it didn't look like nothing happened, but the beggar rolled in just now, it was clean and neat, as if he hadn't been injured at all.

It's fake that the wound doesn't hurt, but he doesn't show the slightest bit on his face, and his heart is definitely not ordinary.Yan Heng thought to himself.

Just as the little beggar opened his mouth to continue talking, he was interrupted by the sound of knocking on the door. It was the concierge who panicked outside and said, "Young master! The young master's building is not good!"

Yan Heng held his forehead, went to open the door and said, "I'm fine."

The concierge slapped himself with an "ouch" sound: "It's not that you're bad! Yes, it's that Wen Yulou is bad! The suzerain of Cangya Mountain's Pingjian Sect has brought people at the door!"

Yan Heng said: "Here we are, why are you panicking? Since we have guests, please go to the main hall for a while. Where is Tongque? Did you see her?"

"Master Bronze Sparrow is dealing with them, it's just that the visitor is not kind, young master! Do you want to avoid it in another place?"

"What are you avoiding? There are guests coming from afar, so you have to treat them well." Yan Heng lifted up his robe, stepped over the threshold, and walked out. The porter was worried and at a loss, and suddenly saw Yan Heng coming out of his room. A beggar was actually the one he met at the door just now.

The concierge pointed at him with rounded eyes: "You you you you——"

"What are you?" Xiao Xie slapped his hand away, "I've already told you, your young master is willing to see me."

Yan Heng gave him a sneering look, but he was thinking in his heart, this person doesn't know whether he is an enemy or a friend, and every time he appears, he rushes for such an opportunity, which makes people suspicious. Here, I don't know what he will do, but if you don't care about him, since he can come quietly, especially with a leg injury, it means that Yeyin can't do anything to him.Feige and Tongque couldn't get away. If there was a commotion here, there might be an opportunity for Cangya Mountain to take advantage of it.For a moment, he didn't know how to deal with it.

Xiao Xie seemed to see that he was scheming, smiled easily, and said to him: "Don't be afraid, Lord Yan, I will go with you and help you solve the trouble. I am a person who hates being misunderstood the most. I must make up for it and help you once. Let you know that I am objective and fair."

"You? Help me? Solve the trouble?" Yan Heng pointed at him, then at himself, and asked with a smile, "Are you sure?"

"Of course. It's hard to chase after a word. Just take me to meet that cliff."

Yan Heng stopped laughing, this time he took a serious look at him again, and asked, "Who are you? What exactly are you planning?"

"Who am I, as you can see." The beggar spread his hands to show off his poor clothes, "Didn't I tell you what the picture was, I was misunderstood by you, I am very upset, let me help you straighten it out once .”

"Of course, if the young master still doesn't feel at ease, then you can reward me with some money and treat it as hiring me to help you solve the trouble. It would be even better. I am short of money, and there is nothing else for the time being It’s a good picture.”

Yan Heng looked at him for a while, then smiled and said, "Yes. If you can really help me solve my troubles, money is not a problem."

Xiao Xie clapped his hands: "The twelfth floor is really rich and powerful."

Yan Heng nodded in agreement: "It's not short of money, you won't be envious. Let someone take you to change clothes first, it's rude to meet guests like this." After speaking, he signaled the concierge to take him to change clothes.

The beggar's face turned red, he pinched the hem of his clothes and said, "Okay, of course. Don't give up the clothes for free."

He stretched himself, and lazily followed the porter with his arms on his pillow, when Yan Heng suddenly stopped him from behind: "One last question."

"You said."

"what's your name?"

Beggar's footsteps stagnated slightly, just for a moment.Soon he said casually: "My surname is Xie, you can just call me brother Xiao Xie!"

Yan Heng let out a "squeak".

***

The main hall of Wenyu Tower is bustling at this time.

Five people came in from Cangya Mountain, one was the master of Pingjianzong, one was a senior brother of Pingjianzong, and the other three were no-name disciples of Pingjianzong.

The five people sat in the guest seats, and Haosheng served tea. The Tongque was standing in the main seat to play Tai Chi with them. When Yan Heng approached, he heard the news that the suzerain was testing the witch hazel.

People from the mere Ping Jianzong dared to come, it seemed that they were really dazzled by the temptation.The old fox who is the head of Cangya Mountain must have acquiesced to their temptation this time, but he must pretend to be ignorant, and maybe he will teach them to come forward rashly later.

Yan Heng sneered inwardly, and walked out from behind the screen.He wore a silver-white mask on his face to conceal his appearance.Perhaps because of his consistent illness, he never showed his true colors to others.

Tongque was the first to notice the movement behind him, and recognized Yan Heng just by looking at the outline. She was shocked and went to protect him, and said in a low voice: "Young master! You don't listen to me!"

Yan Heng gave her a reassuring look, and looked at the people in Cangya Mountain: "Everyone came from a long way, please forgive me for my disappointment."

Naping Sword Sect Sect Master stood up and pretended to hold a fist: "Young Lord Yan speaks seriously, and it is a great honor to meet Young Master Lou himself."

Yan Heng smiled and sat on the upper seat, and ordered Tongque to also take a seat. Seeing that the seat was a little far away from Yan Heng, Tongque felt uneasy, but still listened to the order and sat down.

When Yan Heng came out of the house, he was wearing a velvet cloak, holding a small heater in his hand, which looked extra heavy in the warm spring of April. His figure under the cloak looked emaciated, if not for A few days ago in Huanyulou, none of the five people in Cangya Mountain believed that this was the notorious Yan Shaolou on the [-]th floor.

But they still looked at Yan Heng secretly with hesitation, at such a close distance, they couldn't feel the slightest surge of internal force from the senior.Either, this is a master of masters, or, this is a useless person.

Either way it's unbelievable.

Yan Heng didn't have any psychological struggle at all, and said generously: "Several fellow Taoists came to ask Yulou, I don't know why?"

The suzerain Zhong Xiao cupped his hands and said with a smile: "The battle of Guangxingfang in the Young Master Building three days ago can be said to be famous all over the world. I represent Cangya Mountain. I am here to hand over the invitation card for the Sword Discussion Club. I also hope that on the first day of August, Lord Yan will come to reward you." Discuss together."

The other people on the twelfth floor almost laughed in their hearts, when had they seen the people in Cangya Mountain so polite?He even invited them to "discuss together" at the Sword Discussion Club?It was agreed to kill the devil on the twelfth floor.Unexpectedly, the reputation of the golden hazel song was so shocking that Cangya Mountain didn't dare to provoke it directly.

Zhong Xiao took out the bronzing invitation card from his sleeve, and Tongque wanted to pick it up, but Yan Heng raised his hand to stop her, motioning Zhong Xiao to hand it to him directly.

Zhong Xiao also had this intention, got up and approached Yan Heng politely with the invitation.

Just like Jing Ke seen in the picture, as soon as he stepped into the reach, he suddenly raised his sword and stabbed Yan Heng.

Yan Heng was still calm and didn't even blink his eyes.

Tongque got up suddenly, but before she could make a move, another person flew down from behind the screen, kicked Zhong Xiao in the chest, and stood in front of Yan Heng.

Zhong Xiao's sword is the famous "Changgou Liuyue" in Cangya's swordsmanship. It can be advanced, attacked, retreated or defended, sending the sword silently, and returning the sword invisible.Of course he didn't expect to hit Yan Heng with one blow, but he didn't expect to be kicked by someone avoiding the blade at such a tricky angle.

Zhong Xiao gritted his teeth secretly, and asked the person: "Your Excellency, Ye Yin? His body skills are secretive and unpredictable, and his reputation is well-deserved."

The people in Cangya Mountain were shocked to see the suzerain's "Longgou Liuyue" was easily resolved, and Tongque was also shocked to see that the visitor was a stranger, but was wearing the clothes of an ordinary disciple on the twelfth floor.

In the audience, only Yan Heng and this "Ye Yin" were leisurely.

Yan Heng smiled slightly at Zhong Xiao: "The suzerain is too famous, he is just a mere backyard sweeper under the door on the twelfth floor, and the three-legged cat kung fu makes the suzerain laugh."

When he said this about Xiao Xie, Xiao Xie was not angry, but cooperated and said: "Yeah, this hero Zhong is modest, it wasn't me who caught everyone by surprise, it was you! The monkey you just fished for the moon was really a ghost." Sneaky and sneaky, catch him off guard!"

Yan Heng almost couldn't hold back his laughter, his faces turned green when he stared at Cangya Mountain, especially that Zhong Xiao, who looked constipated, Yan Heng quickly smoothed things over and said: "Xiao Xie, what are you talking nonsense, you won't Don’t use idioms.”

Xiao Xie said in a daze: "Oh, Zhong Yingxiong, I'm really sorry, I just sweep the backyard, I have no culture."

Zhong Xiao looked like he was about to lose his temper, and he shouted angrily: "What kind of monkey is fishing for the moon! Ignorant boy, that is the 'Changgou Liuyue' of my Cangya Mountain Qiushui Sword School. I just wanted to fight with Yan The landlord is sparring, so I didn’t use much force, and now I will show you the real Cangya swordsmanship!"

He raised his sword and stabbed at Xiao Xie as if to vent his anger, Xiao Xie smiled.

"Then, lesson learned."
