Chapter 4: Lu Xiunian (2)
His parents are not far away, but Lu Xiunian has never seen his parents since he was born, and there is only an old monk who accompanies him to grow up, a drunkard, a broken temple, and a girl who has been in the broken temple for a long time to deliver food.
She always said that she wanted to take him home, but Lu Xiunian felt that he could beg for a hundred meals, but he couldn't go to her house, not to mention, he still had two masters to support.
On the seventh day of the fourth month, just after his fifteenth birthday, Lu Xiunian ate a bowl of longevity noodles cooked by an old monk in the broken temple and took advantage of the darkness to go outside Jizhou City.
Looking back at the high walls of Jizhou Mansion, he didn't know if he would still see that girl.
In the dark night, under the cold moon, the figure was confused, the young man drew his sword and waved it lightly, the people on the tree fell from a height, there was no other person except the sound of impact with the ground, wiping the warm blood on his face, Lu Xiunian finally saw those people who were in ambush.
"Boy, you're looking for death!"
The sharp blade in the hand of the leading man in black was about to be unsheathed, and Lu Xiunian clenched the red sleeve in his hand as usual, which was given to him by the old drunkard when he was seven years old.
The red face is also broken, and the love is deep.
"Who died is not yet known, Lu Xiunian only has one life, what can be taken away is ability, and he can step on my body. ”
The black-clothed man's eyes were half-squinted, and the coldness was clear, and suddenly he waved his hand, and when he turned around, the killing intent was fully revealed, and the black-clothed man walked together.
In the next moment, the black-clothed leader stood in place in shock, and the moment he turned around, the scene in front of him made him even more dumbfounded.
"Crossing the river dragon, can the fish and shrimp be stopped?"
The words that came out of the boy's mouth were short, but they could no longer intimidate the leader at this moment.
It's just one move, one style, and more than a dozen third-grade masters are all killed, such a thing can only be done by a grandmaster above the second grade.
But the boy only has ...... Fifteen years old.
"I'm underestimating you. The black-clothed leader looked at Lu Xiunian opposite, and a trace of fierceness flashed in his eyes, "It's better to let me teach you how to cross the river dragon." ”
As he spoke, the figure of the man in black flashed, and the next moment he arrived in front of the young man, and the sword in his hand was unsheathed and stabbed straight at Lu Xiunian.
Lu Xiunian hurriedly went back, but his shirt was still pierced.
Lu Xiunian sighed in his heart, he deserved to be a master of the first grade of King Kong, but he had already let himself take care of himself in just one step.
"Yes, there are not many second-grade grandmasters who can avoid this hand, you are already promising at such a young age, but it's a pity, do you want to go to Chang'an with me, the glory and wealth are endless." ”
In the end, whether the man in black cherished his talent or how, Lu Xiunian didn't know, but he knew why he was here.
Lu Xiunian said calmly, "Chang'an is too far away, and the kid's relatives are all in Jizhou. ”
A trace of regret and pity flashed in the eyes of the man in black, "It's a pity." ”
The last second was still sighing, and the next second the killing machine was revealed, but fortunately, Lu Xiunian had already taken precautions and avoided the next kill of the man in black, and he still had the strength to fight back.
"Boy, it's good to reach out, don't leave anything unturned!"
The man in black shouted loudly, obviously a nocturnal walker, but he had a little more pride in walking in the sun.
Lu Xiunian didn't know, but he only collected his mind for a moment, and concentrated on the killing moves against the man in black.
————
Late at night, the ragged old drunkard in the ruined temple at the foot of Phoenix Mountain had just lit the candle flame in front of the Buddha, and at the foot of the Buddha statue, the monks had already begun to recite the scriptures.
"I don't know what's wrong with the stinky boy? It looks like it's going to rain outside. ”
The old drunkard picked up the wine gourd on the ground, took a sip of wine, and warmed up, but instead of the satisfaction of the past, he looked at the sky outside worriedly.
When the monk heard this, he closed his eyes and said softly,
"An individual has his own fate, and Xiunian has his own destiny. ”
The old drunkard sighed, "I hope so." It's a pity that the girl in the General's Mansion and Xiu Nian are inseparable after all. ”
The monk was speechless, only reciting the scriptures, but the old drunkard, who couldn't listen to them on weekdays, felt that the words recited from the monk's mouth were the only words that could reassure him.
————
He practiced martial arts at the age of six, held red sleeves at the age of seven, and was carefully taught by two masters, but Lu Xiunian has always done superficial kung fu, and he has very little time to learn with his heart.
However, at this moment, Lu Xiunian regretted a little, those wasted time, if he knew that one day he would face such a situation, he would take everything that the master taught to heart no matter what.
But now, it is no longer time for him to regret it.
The fifteen-year-old second-grade grandmaster sounds like he is already a genius, but for Lu Xiunian at this moment, it is far from enough.
Because on the opposite side is the master of the Vajra Realm.
More than a dozen third-grade martial artists came to assassinate, how could it be the kindness of those people, the most important thing was the man he was facing at the moment.
The two clapped each other, Lu Xiunian retreated more than a dozen steps back, and spat out a mouthful of blood, while the man in black on the other side only took five steps back to stabilize his figure.
The gap is so big that it's already very clear.
————
Jiang Yuanxi looked at the man next to him and asked, "What happened later?"
Lu Xiunian smiled, as if he remembered the things that were young and frivolous, and even the gloom on his body dissipated a lot, adding a little lightness and amazement.
"Later, I won. Saying that, Lu Xiunian added, "The second grade broke the mirror into King Kong and killed it with one blow." ”
Jiang Yuanxi wondered, since they were all King Kong, why could Lu Xiunian kill them with one blow?
Lu Xiunian explained with a smile, "I am cultivating martial arts and Buddhism, and each level is more difficult than ordinary advancement, but it is also more solid, so I can kill the enemy in one blow." ”
Jiang Yuanxi understood a little, and Lu Xiunian on the side wanted to talk about it again, Jiang Yuanxi glanced at the sky and said,
"It's not early today, let's talk about the rest another day. ”
Lu Xiunian was puzzled, the woman had already gotten up and walked outside the pavilion, and seeing that the people behind her did not follow, she turned around and said, "There are some things that are urgent, but since I promised you something, I will do it, at the moment, I will send you to a place, at least I can protect you from harm." ”
Lu Xiunian was slightly stunned, but he also understood what Jiang Yuanxi meant.
————
The door of the café was still open, but the light in the room was dim, and there seemed to be no one anymore, but when Jiang Yuanxi walked in, he still saw the man sitting in the corner.
She remembered that his name was Su Yu.
"Do you know I'm coming?" Jiang Yuanxi asked.
At that time, Xiao Han was beside Jiang Yuanxi, and Su Yu in the house looked in the direction of the door, but the first glance was not to see Jiang Yuanxi, but the person next to her.
"I didn't know if the girl would return, but I had a hunch that something would come tonight. Su Yu said.
Jiang Yuanxi looked at Xiao Han next to him, who was as calm as water and calm.
"Now that you're here, let's take a seat. ”
Su Yu said, two cups of tea had been placed on the opposite side of the table, and it was still steaming, Xiao Han sat down calmly, but Jiang Yuanxi hesitated, and then listened to Su Yu, "Ling'er, take this special guest to rest for a while." ”
As soon as the words fell, a girl about ten years old appeared in the café, Jiang Yuanxi glanced at Lu Xiunian, who followed Wang Ling'er to another room.
"The two are not human, not ghosts, not demons, not ghosts, and so far at night, I don't know what you are doing?"
Su Yu asked.
Jiang Yuanxi waited for a while, and saw that Xiao Han didn't say anything, and said the next moment,
"There are some things I want to ask my husband for help, but I don't know ......"
"It's just inconvenient to ask. Su Yu cut off Jiang Yuanxi's words, if he had already thought about it, Jiang Yuanxi didn't know what to say for a while.
"This ...... You still don't know what I'm going to say?" Jiang Yuanxi was a little inexplicable, it was Su Yu's decisiveness that made her a little dazed.
Su Yu smiled, "The girl wants the person just now to stay, right." ”
Although Jiang Yuanxi didn't want to admit it, he still guessed correctly.
Su Yu continued, "It's okay to stay, but my little house is not for a prince, if he is here, this place will be unpeaceful, isn't it because of this that the girl brought people to me?"
Jiang Yuanxi nodded, Lu Xiunian's identity was too special, and the killing before her death was too heavy, even if she was close, she would feel uncomfortable, but some people, for those powerful ghosts, Lu Xiunian at this time could be their best food, and they could also become the object of revenge even if they gave everything.
Fortunately, Lu Xiunian has the protection of dragon qi, but Jiang Yuanxi's protection of dragon qi is also limited, and the best way is to find a place like No. 6, a person like Su Yu.
Nothing close.
Jiang Yuanxi raised his eyes and looked at Su Yu opposite, and suddenly chuckled, which caught Su Yu a little off guard, he thought that when he said this, the woman should understand what it meant, and probably take the initiative to leave.
"Although the existence of No. 6 is allowed by the Hades, there are some things that are not approved by the Hades, just like the people in your house, the old man, the Chu prisoner, Jiang Wentao, and the Ling'er just now, I don't think they are ordinary people, if the Hades knows that you left these people without authorization, I don't know what to do!"
Jiang Yuanxi said with a smile, since Su Yu didn't want to accept it, she forced him to leave people behind.
If you don't want to stay, you have to stay!
Sure enough, Su Yu frowned, but soon stretched out, chuckled, and said, "The girl's words are good, but the girl forgot, I am just a contract person, and the real person in charge is someone else, if the girl wants to inform the underworld, please do it." ”
Su Yu sat firmly opposite, as if no matter what Jiang Yuanxi said, he would not change his attention, or even more, he had already thought of all possible ways.
Jiang Yuanxi frowned, looking at the person opposite, if a deal cannot be negotiated, then the other party must be dissatisfied with the other party's dissatisfaction with the bargaining chips.
"Then if I promise you, I won't leave Pingzhou Mansion for five years. ”
Jiang Yuanxi made a promise, such a promise means that Pingzhou Mansion will be peaceful in the next five years, and it also means that Su Yu will have a person to rely on in the next five years that he will have no worries.
Su Yu didn't say anything, but it was obvious that there was some surprise, and he was also weighing in addition to the surprise, there was no surprise, this was a good deal, but from another point of view, this was a benefit, this was a trouble.
The appearance of a Protoss in the Sixth can certainly avoid some troublesome things, but if someone has the heart to take advantage of it...... Qin Xi didn't end very well.
Just thinking about it, Xiao Han, who had been silent, suddenly said coldly, "Promise, or I'll send all of you on the road." ”
Jiang Yuanxi may not have this evil spirit, but Xiao Han has, and Su Yu doesn't dare to take this as a joke.
Just because of that moment of murderousness, it is enough to explain everything.
"Okay, so be it. Su Yu said, and added, "But say it in advance, if there is anything going on in the café in the past five years, Miss Jiang can't sit idly by." ”
Jiang Yuanxi glanced at him, but just said "um".
"It's getting late, Su Yu won't stay longer, please go slowly, I won't be far away. ”
Su Yu got up as a gesture of sending off guests.
After being silent for a while, Jiang Yuanxi finally got up and walked out of the café, and Xiao Hanwei behind him glanced back at Su Yu in the room before going out, and the latter instantly felt a chill down his spine, and his hairs stood on end.
Fortunately, it was only a moment, but that moment made people's hearts not calm for a long time, and they didn't say a word, but the warning in it was already self-evident.
Su Yu walked upstairs, Lao Li went to close the door, and just walked to the corner of the upstairs when he saw Jiang Wentao, Su Yu didn't have time to speak, he heard Jiang Wentao say, "She is my homeroom teacher." ”
Su Yu was dumbfounded, almost stunned for a few seconds, and then smiled bitterly, "Then I'm really a little self-inflicted?"
Jiang Wentao didn't say anything, turned around and walked back to the room.
Su Yu looked at the closed door and sighed, it has been a few months since he came here, but there is still a layer of invisible separation in some things, such as Jiang Wentao, for example, Chu Prisoner, even if it is a harmonious atmosphere on the surface, but there is a mustard in it after all, which takes time and effort to solve.
Jiang Yuanxi walked out of the café, Xiao Han behind him still followed, and finally when he was about to reach the door of the house, Jiang Yuanxi stopped, turned around and looked at the person behind him, "I said, I'm going home." ”
"I know. Xiao Han said.
Jiang Yuanxi took a deep breath, "Why are you still following me when I go home?"
Xiao Han raised his eyebrows and glanced at the nearby high-rise buildings, "I want to see how the community is, if it's good, I can speculate on real estate." ”
Jiang Yuanxi: "......"
Xiao Han's maintenance and temper made her feel that even refusal was a harsh thing.
"Go up, it's cold, add an extra garment tomorrow." ”
Xiao Han said, what Jiang Yuanxi felt was not the warmth of being cared for, but another kind of surprise,
"How do you know?"
Xiao Han smiled gently, as if he had been like this many times, "I know a lot of things about you, as long as you know, I will definitely not harm you." ”
Jiang Yuanxi hesitated, not because she felt that he would harm herself, but because she had no way to remember what someone had said to her.
Xiao Han's purpose, what is the purpose of the sky, including the Biluo Sea where everything began by himself, Jiang Yuanxi's heart is full of entanglement and pain.
Because the "truth" is too cruel, because the person is too gentle with himself.
Even if he was sorry for everyone, he was the only one who was sorry for himself.
