This county seat is not big, Ding Qizhong went east along the main road, and after half a pillar of incense, he arrived in front of a big mansion in the east of the county seat.

This house is a four-entry courtyard, which is a very big house in the county, Ding Qizhong raised his hand and knocked on the door after he came, the porter opened the door, saw that it was him, and said, "Master Ding is here." ”

The latter nodded and stepped into the courtyard, where the porter then closed the door.

After Ding Qizhong entered the door, he walked straight to the north, passed through the first gatehouse, and entered the second courtyard, where there was a three-story embroidery building, but at this time it was dark in the embroidery building, and it must be uninhabited.

Ding Qizhong walked to the embroidery building and opened the door and went in, and closed the door with his backhand.

It makes no difference whether the door is closed or not for Nanfeng, enter the embroidery building through the wall, and see some sundries and utensils placed in the embroidery building, which should have been a woman's embroidery building before, but there may be no one to live in after the daughter of the head of the family gets married.

There are no utensils on the second floor of the embroidery building, there is a set of dilapidated tables and chairs in the middle, and there is a small bed near the east window, and there is a light futon on the bed.

Ding Qizhong lit the oil lamp on the second floor, and then went to the third floor, the third floor was transparent on all sides, and after looking around from here, Ding Qizhong returned to the second floor, sat down from the table, and looked at the oil lamp in a daze.

Nanfeng has been hiding beside him, and by this time he already knows what Ding Qizhong is doing, and he may not have much business in the dart game, so he came out to keep vigil with the rich family to make some money.

After sitting for a while, Ding Qizhong took off his weapon and took a linen cloth to wipe it carefully.

Although this person carried a long sword with him, it was just a cover-up, in fact, this person is best at using a knife, and he is not an ordinary long knife, but a hidden flying knife, the knife bag is tied around the waist, sewn by cowhide, and there are twelve flying knives inserted in the front and back.

In addition to the twelve flying knives on the waist, there are also six flying knives hidden in other parts, respectively on the left and right arms, both legs and ankles, and both armpits, with a total of eighteen flying knives on the whole body.

It took half an hour to wipe the flying knife, and then Ding Qizhong put away the flying knife, took the long sword, and went up to the third floor to observe.

After making sure there was nothing unusual around, he went back to the second floor and sat down at his desk, just sitting there, sitting quietly, withering, and motionless.

is what Ding Qizhong has not done, Nanfeng can also judge, this person is very self-disciplined, and loyal to the ministry, and Changle is somewhat similar, but the two are also obviously different, Changle's coldness is cold from the heart, before marrying Chu Huairou, his eyes were hollow and dead, Ding Qizhong is also very calm, but his calmness is the result of self-restraint, through his eyes, it is not difficult to find that this person has a very heavy heart.

Ding Qizhong answered the three questions he asked before, and this person had also shown his extraordinary martial arts skills during the previous selection, after the long sword was shaken off by the fat man, the six flying knives that were quickly sent out all hit, two of which hit the fat man's eyes.

The attic was ventilated on all sides, and it was very cold, and it could be seen that Ding Qizhong was a little unbearable, but he did not meditate cross-legged to resist the cold, but only occasionally rubbed his hands and breathed.

Near the third watch, a subtle light appeared in the backyard, and the light was not emitted by the lantern, but the dim light emitted by the wind on the coals.

It was a young woman dressed in splendid embroidery, who was twenty-five or sixteen years old, and who should be dressed as a family member and not a servant.

When this person appeared, Ding Qizhong was looking out on the third floor, and when he saw this person, his brows furrowed, and he moved to the east, looking east from the window, not looking at the woman.

The woman held the brazier in her hand, and looked left and right as she walked, as if she was very evasive of others.

Then came the footsteps of going upstairs, and in a short time the young woman reached the second floor, put down the brazier, and took out a handkerchief from her bosom and put it on the table, which was supposed to contain a snack.

Seeing that Ding Qizhong was not on the second floor, the young woman seemed a little disappointed, but she did not go to the third floor to look for it, nor did she make a sound, and walked up the stairs after putting down the brazier and snacks.

If she had been let go, the south wind would not have been a south wind, and the young woman had stumbled and fell.

Although the young woman fell, she endured the pain without crying out, no doubt because she was afraid of being heard by others.

Others couldn't hear it, but Ding Qizhong could hear it, but he just eagerly walked to the staircase, but didn't go down the stairs.

The young woman tried to get up, but as soon as she stood up, she felt a sharp pain in her right ankle, and she fell unsteadily.

This time, Ding Qizhong finally came down and stood three steps away from the young woman, "Sixth lady." ”

"Master Ding. The young woman tried to get up, but fell again.

Ding Qizhong instinctively wanted to step forward to help, but his hands were stretched out, and he still held back at the last moment.

When Ding Qizhong hesitated, Nanfeng went to the first floor and looked at the door on the first floor.

Back on the second floor, the young woman had already stood up and was talking to Ding Qizhong, not talking ambiguously, but about Master Ding's hard work to resist the bandits, and the things in her job were not enough to worry about.

After a short conversation, the young woman turned around and wanted to leave, Ding Qizhong said, "Sixth lady, there is a difference between men and women, you still don't come again in the future." ”

Hearing Ding Qizhong's words, the young woman turned back in disappointment, Ding Qizhong tilted his head to the side and did not look directly at her.

"I see. The young woman nodded, and walked forward.

As soon as he took a step, he fell down again, and this time Ding Qizhong had to be helped, because if he didn't help, the young woman would roll down the stairs.

The former pulled, and the latter fell into his arms. This is naturally done by the south wind, if nothing happens, it is difficult to judge a person's character, only when things are encountered, a person's true temperament will be revealed.

Nanfeng did it skillfully, in Ding Qizhong's opinion, the young woman took the initiative to throw herself into her arms, and in the eyes of the young woman, Ding Qizhong deliberately pulled her into her arms, so the atmosphere was very delicate.

It's not enough to push the boat down the river, but also to add fuel to the fire, and it's easy to add fuel to the fire, so that the young woman's feet hurt.

To see if a man has affection for a woman, it depends on whether he can't bear to see the woman suffer, and the painful look on the young woman's face made Ding Qizhong reluctant, and hurriedly squatted down to examine her injuries.

At first glance, the swollen old Gao, it stands to reason that the sprain and swelling should not be so fast, but he can't stand the trouble of someone next to him.

"How is this good?" Ding Qizhong was so anxious that he didn't know if he was worried about the young woman's injury, or if he was worried about the young woman's inability to leave.

The young woman was so anxious that she did not answer.

The weather can also affect a person's mood, and in cold situations, both men and women are not easy to get emotional, so they have to make the room warmer.

If you want to warm up in the room, the room will be warm immediately, and no one will pay attention to the strange changes in temperature at such a beautiful juncture.

This is not enough, another north wind howling.

The harsh environment outside can give the people in the house more security, and the worse the weather, the less likely it is that the people will hang outside.

The young woman's eyes were already a little confused when she looked at Ding Qizhong, and Ding Qizhong noticed it and was about to retreat.

Seeing this situation, Nanfeng secretly laughed, and it could be seen that Ding Qizhong liked this woman, but he was just forcibly restraining him.

Almost all of the people who can help have helped, think about it carefully, you can help again, bright, in a very bright environment, people will be relatively rational, thinking of this, a cold wind through the window paper, blowing out the oil lamp in the room.

The cold wind is howling outside, the house is warm like spring, the beauty is in your arms, and you don't do it?

As soon as the lights went out, the young woman became more and more confused, leaned back, and whispered, "Third brother." ”

Ding Qizhong was afraid that the young woman would fall and did not dare to retreat, but he never reached out to hold the young woman, but just stood in pain in place.

Outside, the north wind was howling and covered in snowflakes.

"Third brother, I know you have me in your heart. The young woman said softly.

"Sixth lady, I have come to work for the vigil. Ding Qizhong closed his eyes.

"Bandits are rampant, most of the big families in the city are hiring nursing homes, as far as I know, the Zhang family is twenty taels, you have to work, why don't you go to the Zhang family?" asked the young woman.

Ding Qizhong did not answer.

The young woman said, "You came to the Hu family to be a nurse for me." ”

"I already have a family, I'm just here to work. Ding Qizhong shook his head.

"Third brother, I was sorry for you back then, don't blame me. The young woman spoke with a tearful voice.

"I know you can't help yourself," Ding Qizhong said, maybe he felt that his tone was too soft, and said, "Sixth lady, the past has passed, don't mention it, I won't come again when the state capital calms down the Niutou Mountain bandits." ”

"Third brother, I know you're here to protect me. The young woman cried.

Ding Qizhong's brows were tightly locked, and he could see that his heart was painful and anxious.

"Third brother, do you hate me?" the young woman reached out and grabbed Ding Qizhong's hand.

Ding Qizhong felt a huge shock all over his body, and reached out to hug the young woman.

Seeing this situation, Nanfeng laughed again, he didn't know what emotional entanglements Ding Qizhong had with this young woman, and he wouldn't underestimate him because Ding Qizhong did what he wanted to do.

But what he didn't expect was that Ding Qizhong did not carry the young woman to the bed, but carried her upstairs.

When he could follow the third floor, Ding Qizhong had already carried the young woman and flew down and sent her back to the backyard.

Ding Qizhong sent the woman back to the backyard, returned to the embroidery building, opened the window on the second floor, and stood in front of the window to take a deep breath.

Nanfeng stood beside Ding Qizhong, seeing it clearly, although Ding Qizhong didn't cry, there were tears in the corners of his eyes.

There are countless men and women in the world, and there are countless love and hatred, although I don't know the details, but the general context has come out, Ding Qizhong and this young woman were a couple before, I don't know why, the young woman finally betrayed him, and Ding Qizhong also married another woman after that, but when this woman was in trouble, he still chose to come to protect.

What a man loves is not necessarily married, and what a woman marries is not necessarily loved, although this woman betrayed Ding Qizhong, Ding Qizhong still loves her in his heart, otherwise he would not cry.

Forbearance is not a disadvantage, but it is definitely not a strength, forbearance cannot solve any problems, it is difficult for a person to judge his true temperament in a state of forbearance, and he has to try to make Ding Qizhong burst out of what is pressed in his heart, only in this way can he observe and determine his true temperament.

What should I do? I thought about it, and I went to Niutou Mountain to attract bandits......
