"Master, there is nothing to discuss, there is no need to ...... like this"

Chu Lin stepped forward to persuade, but he couldn't take it for granted, he could only sigh again and again, Bai Xiu's heart was much calmer, God was already very merciful, and he postponed the pain that should have been suffered ten years ago for ten years.

And 120 hours is just a moment in 10 years.

Thinking, he handed the sleeping Qu Li to Chu Lin: "Please Brother Chu help me take care of it, and please don't mention it to Xiaoice, all the evil consequences will be borne by me, I hope that I will not affect others again." ”

Before Chu Lin stretched out his hand, Qu Lian had already woken up from his deep sleep with some feeling, and hugged Bai Xiu tightly and refused to let go.

Bai Xiu persuaded softly: "Pity, you follow this brother home first, and I will pick you up when I finish my errands." ”

Qu Lian didn't shake his head or nod, staring at him with a dull gaze, obviously a little reluctant, he couldn't say anything in his heart, but he knew that the matter had come to this point, and he couldn't allow him to continue to escape.

He gently retracted her hand and pushed it into Chu Lin's arms.

"This, this...... Alas!"

Chu Lin couldn't persuade him, he didn't know what to do, but he suddenly heard footsteps behind him, and when he looked back, it turned out that his junior brother Ji Nian ran over, and he held something in his hand high as he walked.

"Master, that woman sent someone again, and threatened that tomorrow is the deadline, if Master still doesn't agree to her request, she will kill Chang'an Cliff and leave it behind!"

"Show me!"

When he saw the contents of the letter, not only Chu Lin Huo Ran's color changed, but even Hu Jingzhong's face became more and more ugly.

He stood up tremblingly, and I don't know if it was because of the pain or the fear in his heart, the two apprentices tried to help him, but he stopped him.

He didn't wait to stand firm, he looked at the letter again, suddenly withdrew his hand, hugged his fist towards Bai Xiu, and his face instantly changed expressions, squeezing out a stiff smile.

"Brother Bai, I have offended a lot before, please ask Haihan...... The niece's foolish brother should do his best, but there is still a little business to deal with in the door, so he can only trouble you to stay in Chang'an Cliff for a few more days. ”

Bai Xiu didn't know why his attitude had suddenly changed, but since the other party had relented, there should still be room for things to turn around, so it was naturally better.

He replied: "Thank you, Mr. Hu, for making it perfect." ”

Hu Jingzhong was obviously relieved, and motioned for Chu Lin and Ji Nian to help him walk back. As soon as he returned to Chang'an Cliff, he personally brought Bai Xiu to the guest room, and asked the eldest apprentice to bring breakfast to the room.

"Try this, fried dried bamboo shoots is a must in Chang'an Town, but when it comes to the most authentic, it should be our Chang'an Cliff. After Hu Jingzhong beckoned him to sit down, he actually cooked vegetables for him personally.

Even a fool can see that he has a plan, Bai Xiu has no heart to make a mistake with the other party, so he doesn't move his chopsticks.

He said straight to the point: "Mr. Hu has anything to say, just say it, not only is he worthy of respecting the teacher, but also asking for Your Excellency, if he can do his best in the next place, he should serve himself." ”

Ji was young, and he couldn't hold his breath the most, and he frequently glared at his master.

Hu Jingzhong smiled, stood up and didn't say a word: "Brother has breakfast and has a good rest, I have something to go out, just ask Ah Lin for lunch." ”

He got up and left, and seeing that Bai Xiu seemed to want to speak, he directly said haha: "Stay, come back in the evening." ”

He signaled to his apprentice again, Ji Nian's face was displeased, Chu Lin wanted to say something and stopped, but the two didn't say anything, and obediently followed him out of the room.

Bai Xiu looked at the rather sumptuous breakfast in front of him in silence, and finally picked up the chopsticks and carefully fed the meal to Qu Lian.

He didn't know what the letter said, but he knew that he must be useful to Hu Jingzhong, otherwise he wouldn't be so polite even if the other party didn't have time to take care of this matter and let him go.

Hu Jingzhong's posture can be said to be quite low, and the last time he was so polite, it was Xie Ningyun who came to deliver the invitation.

Thinking of this, Bai Xiu had to suspect that the other party was very likely to know about the plan and his entanglement with those people.

At least Hu Jingzhong felt that Bai Xiu, or the force behind Bai Xiu as he thought it, could help them deal with that uninvited guest.

Of course, what Bai Xiu said just now was not polite.

Whether it was his own ability or the value that the plan gave him, if he could really do something to help them, while alleviating his own sins, and winning a chance for Qu Lian, it would be God's favor for him.

As Hu Jing said, he went out all day, until it was dark, and there was no movement in the courtyard.

Bai Xiu pushed the door and saw that Chu Lin and Ji Nian had already greeted him.

The latter couldn't hold his breath the most, and without waiting for Hu Jingzhong to approach, he asked, "Master, have you brought back the 'Hehe Yin Yang Plate'?"

Hu Jingzhong glared at him unkindly: "From now on, there is no harmony yin and yang plate in the world, are you clear?"

Ji Nian was obviously a little afraid of him, so he nodded hurriedly: "But tomorrow that woman is here, how are we going to deal with it?"

Hu Jingzhong just sneered, and it took a while before he spit out a few words: "If she is really unscrupulous, then I don't need to think about any old feelings, and I will end up with her." ”

His hideous look suddenly made Ji Nian shudder, and he opened his mouth, but he couldn't say a word.

Hu Jingzhong looked at the two of them, and finally showed a hint of kindness in his eyes: "This is my calamity, not your calamity, no matter what, I have to protect you as a teacher." I have already informed Xiaoice to leave, so you should hurry down the mountain. ”

Ji Nian grew up with him since he was a child, and he understood his plan, so he hurriedly spoke:

"Master, as a disciple of Chang'an Cliff, it is a matter of harmony and harmony with the yin and yang plate, so there is no position to stay out of the matter, although I am not a weapon, but I know benevolence, righteousness and filial piety, and I will never be the timid and afraid of things!"

"Well said, worthy of our people in Chang'an Cliff!"

Hu Jingzhong immediately applauded, then turned his gaze, looked in Bai Xiu's direction, and the corners of his mouth hooked up an inexplicable smile, "But things are far from the point where the net is broken, maybe there is still room for change." ”

Seeing that the other party found himself, Bai Xiu didn't feel embarrassed, but looked at each other calmly, he was now hoping that Hu Jingzhong could talk to him openly and honestly, if he could really do something, he would be prepared.

It's a pity that Hu Jingzhong quickly looked away and said to the two disciples: "I'm tired, now go to rest first, you guys should also go to sleep quickly, there is still a tough battle to fight tomorrow, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep lazy." ”

Soon there was no movement in the yard, Bai Xiu also closed the door and carried Qu Lian to the bed, and when she was coaxed to sleep, she still sat on the side and closed her eyes and concentrated.

The mountains are extremely quiet, and only the noisy chirping of cicadas and crickets can be heard, which can be heard from far and near.

The sorrow in Bai Xiu's heart was also quietly soothed by this nocturne, like a dark cloud in the sky, gradually dissipating.

However, I don't know how long it took, he suddenly woke up from his meditation, subconsciously looked at the bed, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat - it was empty, and Qu Lian disappeared under his nose!

He wondered if he had fallen asleep, and then had a nightmare, after all, even if he couldn't use his spiritual power now, such a strange thing would never happen.

It's a pity that the facts don't allow him to use this reason to evade, and someone did take Qu Lian away unknowingly.

Bai Xiu's heart sank, and he hurriedly walked to the door to check, and it was at this time that he suddenly smelled a strange smell wafting in from outside.

The smell was not fragrant or smelly, it was very faint, if it weren't for the inexplicable familiarity in his heart at that moment, he probably wouldn't have noticed it.

Could it be that Qu Lian's disappearance has something to do with it? Bai Xiu carefully chased out, and when he found the source of the smell, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, and saw Qu Lian sitting by the well in a daze, looking down at the bottom of the well.

He couldn't help but laugh dumbly, how could there be such a master in the world, it turned out that he was too tired, and he didn't even notice that she ran out secretly.

He walked over quickly and picked her up: "Pity, are you bored, I'll take you out for a walk now." ”

He turned and took a step, then remembered his previous question, and went to the well and sniffed it gently, and sure enough, the smell came from the well.

Bai Xiu thought about it for a while and understood, this well water is probably a special spring water, it is good to have the sun during the day, but at night there is no daylight, and the smell in the well water will diffuse. It is estimated that Qu Lian also ran here because of curiosity.

Bai Xiu thought about it, so she walked out with Qu Lian in her arms, and was about to go around, but she was a little drowsy for a while, and her eyes couldn't open.

He couldn't laugh or cry, so he took her back to her room, put her on the futon again, and lulled her to sleep.

This came and went, how dare Bai Xiu close his eyes again, and sat on the edge of the bed until dawn.

However, it was only five or six o'clock at this time, and although Hu Jingzhong's master and apprentice had already gotten up, they were afraid that it would affect their rest, so they didn't ask him and Qu Lian to come out for breakfast.

I don't know how long it took, there was a sudden sound of heavy footsteps outside the Chang'an Cliff, Bai Xiu didn't know how to describe it, that is, someone deliberately stomped his feet on the ground, and the entire Chang'an Cliff was shaking.

His heart moved, and he was about to go out to check, but as soon as he opened the door, he saw that the wooden gate of Chang'an Cliff suddenly trembled, and then someone uprooted it.

All of a sudden, the dust was flying, and in that chaos, Bai Xiu actually saw a familiar person, not who Zhang Tianshou was, it seemed that after the Fang family fell, he also threw himself into the Jiang family's door.

And the people around him, Bai Xiu actually felt a little familiar.

Among them was a woman in her early thirties, with a very beautiful face, and to her left was a man in a cloak, not very tall, and his whole body was enveloped in a black cloak.

This strange combination instantly reminded Bai Xiu of the situation when he left his soul in Huishan Villa, but he didn't expect that ten years have passed, Jiang Yi has not changed much, and he has only left a little trace of time on his face.

He was in his trance, and the dust had cleared not far away, and there was a man behind them.

After seeing his appearance clearly, Bai Xiu was speechless for a while, these people were all acquaintances - the last person was none other than Zheng Zhi, who had only dealt with him not long ago.

Bai Xiu really didn't expect that he was also Jiang Yin's person.

That's strange, although Hu Jingzhong didn't say Jiang Yin's purpose, but their words also revealed a clue, her goal is the so-called Chang'an Cliff Treasure - Hehe Yin Yang Plate.

What is it about her snatching the Yin and Evil Compass and the Harmony Yin and Yang Disk?
