The next day, the sun rose high, a little cool sunlight came in through the window, the orange cat lying at the head of the bed squinted sleepy eyes, feeling a little cool, after all, it was late autumn, it stood up and stretched, got into Xiao Ai's quilt and continued to sleep.

Xiao Ai woke up at noon, looked at the big fat cat in his bed in surprise in surprise, hugged and ravaged, laughed in his mouth, and the orange cat was tossed and woke up, and reluctantly meowed twice.

"Big Fat Orange, I remember you talking last night. Xiao Ai suddenly remembered, grabbed the orange cat's two front paws, and let it stand in front of him.

The orange cat meowed twice, pretending not to understand, tilting its head and rubbing it against Xiao Ai's arm.

"Did I dream?" Xiao Ai frowned cutely, recalling very seriously, and suddenly shouted: "Last night I dreamed that you could talk, and there is a patient like Bo Jun, so amazing! I have to talk to Bo Jun." She let go of the orange cat, took out her mobile phone, and was about to dial, staring at the call log displayed on the phone screen and froze, "Last night, I called Bojun?"

The orange cat quietly slipped out of bed, and Xiao Ai shouted, "Big, fat, orange, you stop me!"

"Meow~" The orange cat squatted innocently on the floor, raised its front paws to its mouth, and licked it with its tongue out.

……

At the same time, Li Qianshan got off the train in Yanping City, took a taxi to a community, entered a certain building, and knocked on the door of one of the households.

"Master. Li Qianshan was respectful to the middle-aged man who opened the door.

The middle-aged man had a little silver thread in his hair, and he was wearing a light-colored spinning wrinkled loose shirt, like an ordinary uncle doing Tai Chi in the park, he opened the door for Li Qianshan, returned to the living room with steady steps, sat on the sofa, Li Qianshan hurriedly put down his backpack, and sat aside to make tea for the master.

Qiao Song's index finger tapped lightly twice on the coffee table and asked, "What trouble did you cause this time?" He knew his apprentice too well, and it was impossible for him to come to see him if he had nothing to do.

"It's okay, it's just that I haven't seen Master for a long time, and I want to come to see you. Li Qianshan said cheekily, and took out a pot of tea from his backpack: "No, I also brought you a box of good tea." ”

"Something to talk about. Qiao Song said impatiently.

"It is natural for the apprentice to respect the master, Master, smell it, this tea is fragrant. Li Qianshan opened the box of tea.

"It's okay, put the tea down and go. Qiao Song pressed the tea box that was handed over.

Li Qianshan embarrassedly let go of the tea box, and then added fuel to the incident of last night.

"It's polite enough that people don't want your life, what else do you want to mess with?" Qiao Song took a sip of the teacup.

"Liangzi has already been settled, it's hard to guarantee that Yelu won't come back to take revenge in the future, and the fat cat is not easy to deal with. Li Qianshan looked sad.

Qiao Song turned the teacup in his hand and remained silent.

Li Qianshan said again: "I have a cheap life, and if I die, I will die, but I am afraid that they will follow the vine and find you, Master." ”

The teacup in Qiao Song's hand stopped and glared at Li Qianshan.

"The two of them teamed up to come to the door, I'm afraid you're not an opponent alone, Master. ”

Qiao Song put down the teacup and said, "You speculate with the heart of a villain, people may not have the heart to pursue you as an unknown junior." ”

"If you're not afraid of 10,000, you're afraid of what if. I almost took his life, how could he give up? Besides, the big fat cat has a bit of a way, and it is a man who offends me, and I will pay homage to it. There's no guarantee that they won't come back for revenge. Li Qianshan saw Qiao Song's hesitant expression, and said ruthlessly: "Strike first, Master." ”

After hearing this, Qiao Song stared at Li Qianshan for a long time, thinking in his heart that if his bastard apprentice was really killed by them, in order to prevent themselves from avenging the apprentice, they might not be able to solve the problem together. Although he didn't care about Li Qianshan's life or death, the other party wouldn't think so.

Qiao Song's expression was fierce, he picked up the teacup and drank the tea leaves at the bottom of the cup, slapped the teacup on the tea table with one palm, and shattered it into powder.

Li Qianshan's eyelids jumped with fright, but he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, this old thing finally decided to make a move.

……

In late autumn, the climate becomes cooler, the nights are long and the days are short, and it is only six o'clock when the sky is dark.

The sunset in the west faded, taking away the last rays of gold shrouded in this city, the lights on the street gradually lit up, the dim street lamps, colorful neon, all kinds of LED signs, and the stars in the night sky were just outcropped and drowned.

The orange cat squatted on the windowsill, admiring the city at night, while eating the fries that Xiao Ai poured into the box for him, and the hair on the side of his mouth was stained with some white crumbs.

There was a small desk lamp on the desk, and Xiao Ai was drawing seemingly messy line drawings on the desk.

"Why don't you go out to work?" asked the orange cat as he chewed.

"I'm just working right now. Xiao Ai put down the paintbrush, stretched, and rubbed his sore arm: "I'm a cartoonist." ”

"You can make money by drawing?"

"Of course!" said Ai gestured to it.

"Why did you jump off the building last night?" the orange cat finished eating the fries and licked his lips: "Do cartoonists like to jump off the building?"

"Of course not. Xiao Ai rolled her eyes, "I just want to experience the feeling of falling from a building, I painted a glass fall, but I can't imagine the feeling of falling from a building, so I will jump and try it." ”

"You're only on the fifth floor, it's so low that you don't have time to feel it, and you have to jump off the tenth floor at least to feel it deeply. The orange cat sneered, feeling incredulous about the reason why Xiao Ai jumped off the building.

"Hey, you're so smart. Xiao Ai praised him very seriously, stood up and walked out: "I'll climb to the tenth floor and jump." ”

"Come back, come back. The orange cat ran over and hugged her by the ankle, thinking that the girl really had something wrong with her brain. It's good to say that he finally persuaded her to come back.

……

The night breeze was cool, the pedestrians on the road were wrapped in their coats, and two tall young men walked side by side on the sidewalk in the shade of the trees.

Bojun is still wearing a black suit, Xu Guan changed into a light-colored casual suit, and the original messy long hair was also cut off and replaced with the same short hair as a modern man.

The two soon came to Xiao Ai's house and knocked on the door.

There was a knock at the door, and Xiao Ai, who was sorting out the drawings at the desk, shouted, "Big Fat Orange, help me open the door." ”

"I'm busy. The orange cat chewed on the fried chicken nuggets in his mouth again, and his speech was slurred.

"I'll be busy after opening the door. Xiao Ai frowned, as if she had lost a sketch.

"Okay, okay. The orange cat swallowed the chicken, stood up and stretched his hind legs, jumped out of the window, entered the living room, walked to the door and stood up, hugged the door with his two front paws and twisted the handlebar, the door was opened, and Bojun and Xu Guan walked in.

The two walked through the living room, came to this room, and saw Xiao Ai rummaging in front of the desk, Xu Guan walked over, bent over with fists, and said sincerely: "Thank you girl for helping last night, and the grace of saving lives will be remembered in my heart." If the girl has an order, Xu Guan will not give up. ”

"You're welcome, you're welcome. Xiao Ai dealt with it casually and continued to bury her head in her own sketches. "Hey, I remember putting it here"

Xu Guan saluted the orange cat again, "Thank you, Mr. for your help." ”

"You're welcome. The orange cat looked him up and down and asked, "Are you recovering?"

"Thank you, sir, for your concern. Now I can barely walk some way, but my true qi is badly depleted, and I can't recover for a while. Xu Guan replied.

"There's no hurry, I'll recover slowly. ”

Xu Guan should be, and the orange cat returned to the windowsill and continued to eat its chicken pieces.

Bojun took Xu Guan to sit on the sofa on the side, Bojun casually picked up a comic book next to him, Xu Guan straightened his back and sat there in a proper manner.

Xiao Ai searched for a long time, scratching the back of his head and going back and forth in the house, and suddenly saw the small box of fried chicken nuggets in front of the orange cat.

"What kind of paper is your carton?" Xiao Ai asked, pointing to it.

"I don't know, it's all green. The orange cat pawed at the cardboard box in front of her face.

"Who told you to eat with it?!" Ai screamed, picking up the pen holder and throwing it at the orange cat.

"You folded it yourself!" The orange cat's fat body jumped down nimbly, dodging the flying pen holder, Xiao Ai hurriedly ran over, rescued the oil-soaked sketch, squatted on the ground and cried, "My manuscript, my manuscript." ”

The orange cat shook and jumped on the armrest of the sofa and lay down, its fluffy fur running down like a liquid, covering the entire armrest. It looked at Xu Guanbo and the two and said, "We haven't gotten to know each other yet." Then each of them introduced it again.

"Mr. Xu. The orange cat asked the question that he had been thinking about all night: "During the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, the night watchman disappeared, have you ever heard of it?"

After Xu Guan heard this, he suddenly fell silent, Bojun on the side also put down the comic book and listened carefully, while Xiao Ai pitifully held the oil-stained sketch back to the desk and re-drawn.

"Yu is the missing Night's Watchman. Xu Guan said ashamedly.

"Sure enough, no wonder you're so strong. The orange cat added, "I heard that the former night watchman had a jade pendant that has been passed down from generation to generation. ”

"That's true. Xu Guan agreed. "But Yu didn't carry it with him at the moment. ”

"Why?"

"Yu was seriously injured and would die soon, so he entrusted the jade pendant to Chengfeng Zhenren and asked him to find another night watchman. Xu Guan paused and added: "Chengfeng Zhenren was a master of the Yuqing lineage at that time. ”

"I've heard of him, and he seems to have fallen in the battle between good and evil. Orange Cat said.

"What?" Xu Guan suddenly raised his voice and said nervously, "What year and month did it fall?"

"I don't remember exactly, but it was probably the first years of the war. It is said that he encountered several Lich masters, outnumbered and fought to the death. The orange cat recalled the man's words.

"Is there any news about the jade pendant?" Xu Guan asked again.

"There is no news, no one has ever known that Chengfeng Zhenren took the jade pendant from you. ”

Xu Guan thought in his heart, I am afraid that after he handed over the jade pendant to Chengfeng Zhenren, Chengfeng Zhenren encountered the few lichs who seriously injured him, so it is unknown whether he handed over the jade pendant to someone else before encountering an accident.

Xu Guan sighed, "The real person who rides the wind." ”

"Don't say that. The orange cat was relieved: "The war of the year was earth-shattering, its scope was wide, the duration was long, rare in history, even if it was avoided once, there will be the next time, in the troubled times, who can be alone?"

Xu Guan sighed again.

On the fourth day of the fifth month of the 43rd year of Wanli, a madman broke into the palace of the prince and injured the prince Zhu Changluo with a stick.

Of course, this is only a record on the surface, in fact, it was some forces under the cover of the night who single-handedly contributed to this big case, after the big case, even though the emperor no longer dared to pursue it, but still turned up a monstrous wave in the night world - it was this case that caused the great war.
