Chapter Thirty-Six: The Watcher

The moonlight casts through the gaps in the leaves of the forest, scattering shadows that sway.

Under the light in the small courtyard, I turned on the half-completed disfigurement potion, but this time the results of the test were still not satisfactory.

The modification that I first tried to do in the Imperial City of Snow Country was still able to fool passers-by in the moment of chaos, but after encountering Yun Chu, I found that it was not enough to see!

Under his skill, the recipe of the potion was changed several times.

Although I can't make such a vivid and almost real mask, I can still emulate the techniques of changing my skin tone and trimming my eyebrows, similar to the techniques of a clever makeup artist before crossing over, and other book friends are reading:.

What I am doing now is to gradually improve this kind of technology, which is a means to save one's life in troubled times, and it is also a necessary condition for getting through the blinds.

Once my mind was focused on something I was interested in, I was distracted, and my eyes were focused on fiddling with the items on the table in my hand, which followed me along the road, and I should be grateful to the warehouse in the East Courtyard.

Unexpectedly, less than two hours later, a figure appeared again in the forest closest to the courtyard where we lived.

When she got into the carriage, she was completely drunk, and when she arrived at the residence, she had already woken up from alcohol, there was no one inside or outside, and she rarely needed to be taken care of after every drunkenness, she only had to sleep well for the night, and when she woke up in the morning, she was back to normal.

This time, to her surprise, she woke up so early!

After she got up, she drank the cold sobering tea in the porcelain cup on the table, thought for a moment, and followed the direction along the road without obeying the footsteps to the independent small courtyard in the dart bureau compound.

Originally, she didn't have any hope, but when she saw that the lights in the two rooms in the small courtyard were on, she still stood in place in surprise.

Of course she could tell who's in which room, and at the right hour, but there was no reason why the lights were still on!

After hesitating for a moment, she slowly walked along the path to the bamboo fence of the courtyard wall.

For fear of disturbing the people in the house, she was quiet when she pushed open the courtyard door, not wanting to be noticed.

In the room where she couldn't see. At the moment when the courtyard door opened, the slight sound still made the two people who were under the lamp raise their heads

I have developed a skill in Zhuyuan, that is, no matter what kind of uninvited guests there are outside.

At that time, there were many forces behind the entanglement with Ji Jiu, and they repeatedly visited Zhuyuan. Like a night tour, the most happy to travel in the middle of the night.

As long as the other party doesn't hit me inside the house, even if there is a big fight outside the house, I can completely ignore them!

The movement outside the house, if there is, is there, it is the person's own business.

As long as it doesn't get in my way, I don't bother to care!

On second thought, something seems wrong!

Now that Ji Jiu has gotten rid of the control of the forces of the Eastern Courtyard, he is hundreds of miles away from the Bamboo Garden, how can there be night spies outside?

Who is that?!

But it's just a thought. I uphold the original attitude, it is still the same, as long as the other party does not violate my principles, I don't even have the interest to go out to explore, no. There is no interest in opening the window!

The movement of the hand did not stop, but the light quickly burned out, after about half an hour

The figure leaning against the tree in the courtyard suddenly froze, as the light she had been watching was extinguished.

She looked at her for a long time, and was about to get up to leave, when the lights in the room suddenly turned on again.

Her bright eyes looked through the night at the flickering lights of the window, and subconsciously leaned her back against the tree again. Restore the original posture.

So be it, allow yourself once, and after tonight, there will be no more opportunities like that.

She quietly looked at the brightly lit window, and watched quietly

I searched in the drawer for a long time, but to no avail, good novel:. I went to the shelf in a corner of the house to find the added lamp oil.

When the lights came back on, I couldn't help but look up at the direction of the window.

That person was really interesting, he just waited quietly in the courtyard like that, and he didn't disturb Ji Jiu or me. It seems that he is just here to watch.

The question is, what does he want to watch in the middle of the night?

I shook my head helplessly, and as soon as I lowered my head and started to busy myself, I refocused on it

There were three rooms in a row in the small courtyard, the westernmost one was blinded by black lights from beginning to end, and the light of the remaining two rooms, the middle one, was finally extinguished at night, and only one room was left, which was always on.

The people in the courtyard were wet with night dew, and the night was cold and soaked through their clothes, but her posture was always motionless, as if she had condensed into a statue

As we approached the end of the day, I stayed awake all night, but even the little sleepiness caused by the previous alcohol disappeared without a trace, and of course, I was even more glad that the night was not in vain.

In fact, from last night to now, since the carriage back, I have always been in a state of flux, but I have gradually learned how to control my emotions and try to adjust my mood as much as possible in the time I have followed Yun Chu.

When you are disturbed by one thing, you must not mess with yourself, and find something to do that you can rely on and need to invest in, which is the best way to get out of the predicament.

Then, just wait to give yourself a little time.

Almighty time!

Stretching my waist, I stood up from the table, the window was already slowly bright, I blew out the lights on the table, moved my sedentary stiff legs, slowly walked around the room for half a circle, I suddenly raised my head and looked out the window.

Soon, I pushed the door open and walked out.

The sight in front of me made me stand there, stunned and overwhelmed.

Under the osmanthus tree in the courtyard was a familiar figure to me, who was supposed to be drunk and had not woken up and slept peacefully in her own room.

I frowned and watched, Gu Liu leaned against the trunk of the tree and fell asleep!

When did she wake up, when she came from her room, and when did she arrive in the courtyard?

Could it be that she was the one who kept watch all night last night?

Gu Liu moved her body, I quickly took a few steps back, closed the door, and when she opened her eyes a little ignorantly, it looked like I had just walked out of the house.

When she woke up at this time, she looked wolf and pitiful, her clothes were wet from the night dew, and her face was pale. There was a cyan shadow under his eyes, and his face looked haggard and tired.

She looked at me, and suddenly panicked, and soon realized that she was still sitting. Hurriedly stood up with the tree, and then lowered his head and kept arranging the hem of his clothes with his hands.

I watched her in silence, my steps reacting faster than my thoughts, and slowly moving in her direction.

"Master Gu, it's early." "Are you looking for me?" I spoke calmly and sounded unhurried.

"I can make you run to the small courtyard so early in the morning, but what is the important thing?"

I asked her with a calm face.

"Well, yes, it's the maids who went to buy last night are back. Everything is gone, I'm here, I'm here to tell you. ”

"Okay, thank you, other book friends are reading:." I nodded kindly to her.

Glancing at the room next to me, "I'll let my eldest brother give you the money later." ”

"I'm not here to talk about silver." There was anxiety and apprehension in her eyes, "Do you want me to let someone load the car for you?" ”

"Okay, thank you."

"You don't have to keep saying thank you so much," she bit her lip and blushed, "It's just a gesture, I'm more familiar with Hengcheng than you, let's talk about it." "We are friends, and we are very thankful." I smiled slightly, "But I can't seem to find a more suitable word to say to you except thanks." “

Surprise flashed in Gu Liu's eyes, and his eyes seemed to be lit up. Soon she lowered her head again. "Anything else?" I asked her with a smile. "No, no, no." Her hand was still grasping the corner of her clothes, and this scene was really nothing compared to my impression of her when I first saw her, and I sighed to myself.

I saw Gu Liu's embarrassment, approached her and smiled heartily: "It's probably gone." You said it all last night when you were drinking. "Ah," Gu Liu looked at me, a hint of panic flashed in his eyes, "I was drunk last night, it was all nonsense, I didn't say anything, right?" “

I clenched my fist and raised my hand to my lips, coughed and said, "I said everything, you said what I wanted to hear, and you said a lot of what I didn't want to hear." “

Gu Liu's face suddenly blushed and fought with Apple: "Don't take it seriously, I don't remember what I said when I was drunk, you just listen to it as a joke, whether it should be said or not." ”

"I'm joking with you," I lowered my head and couldn't help laughing, "You didn't say anything, and when you were drunk, you just slept on the table, but Aunt Dong talked to me very speculatively, and the mutton soup she made was really delicious." ”

"Yes, Aunt Dong used to be the golden sign of Hengcheng, although she doesn't open a store now, but her craftsmanship is not picky."

"Gu Liu, thanks to you, I was able to taste such a delicious dish before leaving Hengcheng." I said to her in a sincere tone.

She avoided my gaze and turned around, "I'm going to see the people below help you load the car." ”

She walked a few slow steps, and suddenly she trotted up, and disappeared in a puff of smoke.

I didn't move, looking at her until her back disappeared into the bushes of the path.

The eyes behind me had been paying attention to the development of the situation in the courtyard, and I coughed again and said, "Big brother, you don't have to hide, you can come out." ”

Ji Jiu, who had freshly washed, changed into a new robe, his gray hair was meticulously combed, and his eyes were angry and funny when he looked at me.

"Why didn't I see that you actually have some bit of potential?!"

"You don't have good eyes."

I glanced at him and said, "Gu Liuren is quite good. ”

"That's good."

"It's really good."

Ji Jiu said two sentences in succession, which was very unpleasant in his ears, and he hooked the corners of his mouth and said: "Originally, I was worried, but it seems that I don't have to think about it now, you don't learn anything else, but you have learned ten **." ”

"Isn't that what you want?"

"I didn't hear what Gu Dart said, the people below will help us load the car, tidy up the packing line, and go to the front yard to find her in a while."
