It was three o'clock in the morning, and the sky was not yet light.

"Thank you, thank you. ”

The young man's voice sounded in his ears, Xie Lianmeng snorted, turned over and continued to sleep.

Xu Daoyun grabbed her shoulders and shook them constantly, and said in a low voice: "Thank you, wake up, wake up." ”

Xie Lian opened her eyes with sleepy eyes, and said suspiciously: "Hmm... What's wrong?"

Xu Daoyun said: "We have to go." ”

Xie Lian was confused, "Where are you going?"

"Nanshan Cemetery. ”

"What are we going to do in the cemetery?" Xie Lian was even more puzzled, because he had just woken up, his head was still a little unable to turn, and his thoughts were slow.

Xu Daoyun explained: "Didn't I tell you that there is a senior master who is willing to teach me powerful methods? This senior is the tomb keeper of Nanshan Cemetery. ”

Xie Lian's eyes widened, and then he asked, "But it's not dawn yet, why don't you wait for the hour to go?"

Xu Daoyun hurriedly said: "Where is such a problem, you also know my situation in Xufu, everyone looks at me unpleasantly, and now I have a big wedding, I must inevitably be cynical when I meet in the daytime, I don't want to suffer from that nest, so let's set off early to avoid them, and it should be dawn when we get to the cemetery." ”

Xie Lian was understanding, nodded in agreement, got up and dressed and walked.

Xu Daoyun took out a rather thick robe from the incense cabinet and handed it to Xie Lian, saying, "It's cold, don't catch a cold." ”

Xie Lian's cheeks were hot, he lowered his head, reached out and took the robe and draped it on his body, and whispered, "Thank you, Third Young Master." ”

Because of the birthmark on her face, her situation and experience in the Xie family are not much better than Xu Daoyun's, and she has never experienced what it is like to be cared for. Although I am still confused about my current identity, this feeling of being cared for and noticed is really better than ever, and I can't help but hook the corners of my mouth and be full of joy.

Pushing open the door, the cold wind and snow rushed in my face.

Xie Lian tightened the robe on his body, Xu Daoyun shrunk his neck, and scolded: "Damn the weather, why is it so cold?"

The two walked out of the Biting Courtyard, and the world was silvery white, with almost no variegation.

I thought it had been snowing all night, and when I woke up, the snow had dyed the huge Xu Mansion white.

Coming to the west of the courtyard wall of the Xu Mansion, Xu Daoyun first observed left and right vigilantly, and then covered his mouth to learn the call of the turtledove, which was six or seven points similar.

Xie Lian was puzzled, but saw a hemp rope thrown from the other side of the courtyard wall, tied with a knot every other foot, which looked very strong.

Xu Daoyun asked in a low voice, "Is it tight?"

"Tighten up, Third Young Master, be careful. "There was a man's sneaky voice from the other side of the courtyard wall.

"Rest assured. Xu Daoyun grinned, holding the hemp rope with both hands, stepping on the slippery courtyard wall with the soles of his feet, exerting force with both arms, and climbing the nine-foot-high courtyard wall with three strokes and five divisions, his movements were skillful and fast, obviously not the first time he had done this kind of thing.

Xie Lian stood in place, helpless and said, "Then what should I do?"

She is delicate and soft, and she has never studied martial arts, so she can't have Xu Daoyun's strength, and she can't climb the wall with her own strength.

Xu Daoyun said: "You tie the knot from the waist around the armpit, and I will pull you up." ”

Xie Lian said worriedly: "Is it okay?"

"Don't worry, I won't fall you. ”

Xie Lian gritted his teeth, tied the hemp rope to himself, held the rope tightly with both hands, and said, "Okay." ”

Xu Daoyun stood on the courtyard wall and pulled the hemp rope vigorously.

Xie Lian looked soft and weak, but she was quite tall, at least weighing hundreds of pounds, Xu Daoyun exchanged and pulled her left and right hands a few times, and easily pulled her up.

Xu Daoyun smiled: "I'll go down first, and then you come down again." ”

Xie Lian nodded.

Xu Daoyun jumped off the wall and rolled on the ground to remove the momentum.

The middle-aged man waiting outside hurriedly helped him up, patted off the snow and weeds on his robe, and said with concern: "Third young master, you didn't fall." ”

Xu Daoyun shook his head and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Ah Zheng, I'm fine, it's not the first time we've done it, practice makes perfect." ”

The guard named Ah Zheng scratched his head and giggled.

Xu Daoyun opened his arms to Xie Lian on the courtyard wall and said, "Don't be afraid, jump down, I'll pick you up." ”

Xie Lian plucked up her courage, leaned forward, exerted force on her calves, and then felt that the whole person fell and threw herself into Xu Daoyun's arms.

Xu Daoyun smiled: "How is it, I said it's okay, right?"

Xie Lian gently left Xu Daoyun's embrace and nodded.

Ah Zheng saluted and said: "This must be the young lady, the little Ah Zheng, is the guard of the Xu Mansion." ”

Xie Lian was afraid of life, so he only paused slightly to respond.

Xu Daoyun said: "She is not good at talking. Then he raised his hand and put his hand on Ah Zheng's shoulder and smiled: "His name is Ah Zheng, I call him Brother Zheng in private, he is kind and treats me very well." ”

Ah Zheng smiled bitterly: "Third Young Master, you still call me Ah Zheng." ”

"Okay, Ah Zheng, I've worked hard for you today, I'm really sorry to force you out of the bed on such a cold day. ”

"Where does the third young master say, as long as it is ordered by the third young master, Ah Zheng will never complain. ”

Xu Daoyun was moved in his heart, patted Ah Zheng on the shoulder twice, and promised: "Ah Zheng, I will definitely get ahead, and you will also make a lot of contributions when the time comes, I will not forget you." ”

"Well, thank you, young master. Ah Zheng nodded heavily.

Carrying Xie Lian into the alleys, for Xu Daoyun, who has lived in this Quwo County for more than ten years, these winding alleys are very familiar to him. He knew exactly when to turn left, when to turn right, which road was blocked by vicious dogs, and which way people had shady deals.

Xu Daoyun is not only very good at being beaten, but also has a skill, that is, he has a clever brain and never forgets it. No matter who it is, what it is, or what it is, as long as it has been seen by him, he will definitely be able to recall it clearly.

has also lived in the county for so many years, and he can always find an excellent hiding place in a twist and turn, so every time someone asks him for trouble, he can save the day.

The two walked out of Quwo County and went up to Nanshan.

The mountain is full of hundred-year-old spruce, fir, hemlock, and yew forests.

Stepping on the potholed mountain road, Xu Daoyun asked, "Have you ever been to this cemetery?"

Xie Lian nodded and replied, "I came to worship the ancestors." ”

Quwo County is established on the edge of the stargazing sea in Jiangzhou, and the south of the cemetery is an endless stargazing sea, where the water and sky are lined, the sky is wide and wide, and it is a very beautiful place.

It is not in vain that a person can be buried in that kind of place after death.

After trekking for two quarters of an hour, I finally saw the vast sea of flowers from afar, thousands of purples and thousands of reds, and the falling flowers were colorful.

This place is also called the Hundred Flowers Forest, and the wooden liao of the tomb keeper is not far in front.

Xu Daoyun quickened his pace and walked across the path to the low and dilapidated house, but saw that the door was closed, so he called out, "Senior, senior, I'm here." ”
