Chapter 500: The Fate of Exile
The hour is still early, and it has not yet arrived at the time of the inn to close, after dinner, the guests who did not go out to have fun gathered in the lobby of the Guiyun Inn to talk, and the boy of the inn welcomed a group of people, all of them in Guiyunzhuang guard uniforms, their faces were quite unkind, and they stood still at the door, and walked in from behind.
The Shadow Thorns of Liquan Villa were still downstairs, and Bow and Ghost Wing were sitting at a table eating, and when they saw that the group of people was imposing, they couldn't help but glance at each other, and then glanced sideways at the Shadow Thorns, signaling everyone not to move.
"Where are the people?" Hongda glanced at the lobby, and the kid followed him with his head bowed, without speaking, but his eyes stared straight at Gong and the others.
It's a blessing or a curse, it's a curse that can't be avoided!
The bow kept his body around, glanced back nonchalantly, and then met the ghost wing.
With a wave of his hand, he bowed and said, "The inferior people travel everywhere with my son-in-law, and they never cause trouble, I don't know what your Excellency has to teach you." β
Hongda hadn't spoken yet, but a person beside him couldn't hold it back, snorted coldly, and shouted: "I heard that someone is disrespectful to our owner, and he is still a young hairy child, so you don't go to inquireββ"
"Zheng Xiang, I have asked you to speak!" Hongda glanced at Zheng Xiang with a loud shout, Zheng Xiang was still full of confidence, but he was stunned by his glance, his body stepped back, pouting and not talking anymore.
Hongda saw that the other party had a lot of people, and he was not aggressive, but he only clasped his fists with both hands and returned the salute, and said: "Everyone in Danyang knows that Guiyun Inn is the property of our Guiyunzhuang, Your Excellency and others have just arrived, and they have nothing to do with our Guiyunzhuang, but they are disrespectful to our owner, I don't know what the reason is?"
Gong Wenyan smiled and said: "This brother also said that our son-in-law is still young, and his speech is inevitably a little inconsiderate, our status is humble, just an entourage, we dare not speak falsely, and I also ask my brother to remember that my son-in-law is young and ignorant, and he doesn't care." β
"Childe, it seems that someone from Guiyunzhuang has found it. In the room, Huo Xiyang was waiting for Flawless to eat, Flawless put down the dishes and chopsticks and listened for a while, got up and stood up, and said, "Follow me." After saying that, he went to the door, pulled the door, and walked out.
"Since you are a subordinate, call your son-in-law out-"
"Zheng Xiang!" Hongda was a little annoyed and stopped Zheng Xiang's words, this person usually relied on his father to be the housekeeper in Guiyunzhuang, and many times he didn't take others in his eyes, which was really unbearable.
"Brother Xiyang, the one who took the lead is the shadow thorn of Guiyunzhuang, named Hongda, I robbed the Su family from Wu Feiyun with him in Jin Ling, he is upright, but he is a person who does not need to be too guarded. After speaking, Flawless looked up at the door again, there was a person standing faintly in the darkness, his long figure was outside the candlelight, he couldn't see it really, and the noise inside the door didn't seem to attract his attention, only a back to the inn, silent.
"What's the noise! Master, I can't eat well, you guys have itchy skin. Flawless went downstairs with a cold face, walked in front of Hongda, and said: "These are my minions, what happened to rush to the master, what's the matter, this Danyang City is not the land of the Great Jin, but it is one of his Leng Qiu?"
Hearing him make provocative remarks again, Hongda's face also changed, but he saw that he was really just a young boy, and it was obvious that he was a person who was spoiled at home and didn't know how thick the sky was, so he endured his anger and arched his hand: "Why should Gongzi be so aggressive when he speaks, and please ask Gongzi's family, let's have an explanation after we go back." β
"Hmph-" Flawless sneered coldly, looked up at Hongda, and said: "We're just playing around, who is the surname of the master, where is the door, but you don't have to let others know, since the owner of your family is an intolerable person, it's a big deal for us to change an inn, I don't believe it, this huge Danyang City, it should really be all surnamed Leng." β
"In this way, I really want to disappoint Childe. Hongda smiled coldly and said, "In this cityβ"
"Hongda, it's just a child's house, you don't have to worry about him, let people come out, and then go to search the city. The man outside the door suddenly spoke, Hongda's words were not finished, but after hearing it, he responded respectfully, then glanced at Flawless, and led the person back to leave.
This man is indeed their leader!
Flawless in his heart, after Hongda and the others left, the man still didn't turn around, only looked up at the snow-covered night sky, and said: "Danyang is an extremely cold place, and it is better to stay in the south if the son has such fine skin and tender meat." β
Flawless walked outside the door and stood side by side with him, and also looked up at the snowflakes in the sky, and then sneered and said: "Master I like to be free, I can go wherever I like, my own father can't control it, and others can't care about it." β
Only in an instant, Flawless's body was suddenly pushed by the man, and then his throat was choked by the man, and everyone behind him rushed up, but he paused under the slight gesture of the fingers behind the flawless backclasp, Flawless held his head high, his eyes widened under the man's resistance, and he stared at him motionlessly, the night was very dark, and all the qiΔ was so blurry, including the man's face.
"Children should be obedient and obedient, and don't be ignorant of the heavens and the earth. The tone of his voice was not shocking, but it was cold.
Flawless blinked his eyes and said with an innocent expression: "Then an adult man bullying a child is not shameful." β
The dark pupils shrank slightly, and the man let go of his hand, looking at Flawless with playfulness, and then suddenly leaned his head and paused on his cheek.
The breath was in his ears, flawless and unmoving, and the man retreated in an instant, and turned back down the steps.
"If a child is too naughty, he will be punished with a small punishment. β
Flawless did not move, but raised his voice when the man was about to disappear, "Who is Your Excellency?"
The figure in the darkness paused slightly, and a cold voice came from afar: "Guiyunzhuang promises." β
"Childe, are you okay!" Huo Xiyang and the others hurriedly walked to the side of Flawless, Flawless still looked at the street that had disappeared in a daze, and listened to their questions before saying, "It's okay." β
This is the most famous but mysterious shadow thorn around Leng Qiuzhi, famous because of his ruthless methods, and mysterious because no one really understands his person, he almost never sets foot in the realm of Danyang, since he appeared next to Leng Qiuzhi in public ten years ago, he has been so low-key that people can't guess.
The origami is dismantled and stacked in his hands until the origami man impatiently crumples it into a ball and throws it into the distance.
The ball of paper rolled in the wind and stopped after hitting the man's shoe.
"If I don't learn, it's so difficult to learn, why do I always fail well. Leng Scarlet pushed down the paper on the table impatiently, and then looked angrily at the promise standing at the door, full of complaints: "It must be that you didn't teach me well, you see what I fold like." β
Straight brows frowned slightly, promised to bend down to pick up the paper ball on the ground, smooth it, and then fold it intently, Leng Fei Rouben was still angry, seeing that he picked up the paper ball he threw away and folded it again, he couldn't help but get up and walk over a little sheepishly, the corners of his mouth twitched, and said: "Okay, it's me who is wrong, I can't learn it myself, but I still lose my temper with you." β
Xu Promise only lowered his eyes and folded the paper, and after a while, he handed a small flower in his hand to Leng Feirou's eyes, the corners of his mouth raised, and said: "It's not like this, you are still a smart girl, why bother with yourself." β
Leng Scarlet finally raised her eyebrows when she heard this, grinned, and said, "That's right." After speaking, he pulled the promised arm and said with a kind of willfulness of his daughter's family: "I saw you coming and going in a hurry for the past two days, and my father always ignored me after he came back, but what happened?"
Xu Yu twitched his arm, walked a few steps quietly, and said: "It's not a big deal, even if there is, it's something that the old man should worry about, you are the eldest lady, just live happily." β
"I know you have something to hide from me, and when I saw the shopkeeper Luo go out that day, my father was so angry again. I've grown up, and although I'm not a man, I'm the eldest lady of this Guiyunzhuang after allβ"
"It's been a day, I'm really tired, go to sleep, Rou'er, don't ask. After the promise was finished, he walked away, Leng Feirou followed a few steps behind him, and then stomped his foot hatefully, and said, "Death promise, always treat me like this, it's really-"
"Miss, let's not be angry, Brother Xu is indeed tired for a day, today I went to the street to buy things, and I saw people in our village everywhere, it seems that they are searching for someone, and even the officers and soldiers have retreated. β
Listening to Liangchen's words, Leng Scarlet Rou couldn't help but sink in her heart, and she had an ominous premonition.
What is going on? Can Guiyunzhuang pay so much attention to it, what are you searching for?!
The candle flame flickered, stretching the man's shadow long.
Xu Promise sat at the table, not knowing what he was thinking, and for a long time, he looked up at the bookshelf against the wall.
The bookshelf was full of things he folded with his own hands, big and small, all kinds of things. Walking over to the bookshelf, he took a brocade box from the top corner, which had not been opened for some time, locked with a patina mottle, he reached out and stroked the lid, and then returned to the table.
Because it has not been opened for a long time, the lock has been corroded by patina, both hands on the lock and stopped for a long time, and finally forced, the lock was unscrewed, and then stopped, staring straight at the box, I don't know how long it has been, it seems that the eyes have been looking a little tired, Xu only sighed lightly, and opened the box.
It's just an extremely ordinary paper crane, I don't know how many years have passed, the pages of the folding paper crane have been yellowed, revealing a trace of desolation for no reason, reaching out to pick up the paper crane, promising for a long time, and gradually revealing a trace of warmth in the usual cold look on weekdays.
After so many years, is that man doing well? There are so many rumors, which one is true! When he was a child, he was so innocent, but he also embarked on a bloody road, and after walking down this way, his heart must have been full of holes, and he and him, can they go back!
