CHAPTER XXVII
This small town is not big, and it is called "Yonghe Town". Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Except for NPCs, there are hardly any players coming and going on the street.
Thinking about it, if this place hadn't been shown to them by Liucui, who lived on the top of the mountain, they would never have imagined that there was such a town in such a continuous mountain, which was almost detached from the world.
After several inquiries from the NPC, I finally learned from the proprietress of a jewelry store that there was only one person named Xue Yunxian in this town, and his identity was the manager of Qinsi Villa.
The two who heard the news did not delay for a moment, and under the guidance of the enthusiastic people in the town, they came to the gate of the Chin Si Villa, which was located not far north of the town.
The gate of the villa was closed, and there were no guards guarding the door. The blue-gray stone walls seem to have fallen into disrepair and are covered with moss, and even the iron rings on the heavily painted gate are rusty. Seeing this scene, the two felt a little puzzled, isn't it a mountain villa that has long been uninhabited, so it will be dilapidated? However, during their inquiry, they did not hear any mention from the NPCs in the town that the place was uninhabited.
"Anyone?" Whatever the facts, a look at the past will tell you how.
I didn't see the coffee come forward and lightly snap the knocker.
"Is anyone there?" For a long time, I didn't see the door open, I didn't see the coffee, and I didn't give up, and I buckled the door knocker a few times. The door belatedly opened a little in a long "squeak", and there was a young man with a face like a crown of jade, and the blue-gray domestic servant's robe on his body could not hide his gentle and elegant temperament.
"Your Excellency?" Although he was facing the living, the man's demeanor was still as natural as flowing water, and he waved his hands and gave salutes.
"I don't see coffee here, I'm just here to find a man with Xue Yunxian, I don't know if you know him?"
The man who originally had a slight polite smile on his face instantly sank when he heard Xue Yunxian's words, he glanced indifferently at the two people standing in front of him, and said stiffly, "There is no such person in our villa, let's go look for someone else!" Then he slammed the door shut.
The two of them, who were inexplicably turned away, looked at each other suspiciously. After a moment of silence, I didn't see the coffee and asked in a consultative tone. "What do we do now?"
"If the bright ones can't do it, they have to come to the dark ones." Without thinking about it, Ling Xue has decided in her heart that exploring at night is what she is best at.
Seeing that the other party coincided with their own thoughts, and they didn't say much when they didn't see coffee, the two walked aimlessly on the street for an afternoon, ate dinner, and quietly waited for the night to fall.
After the lanterns were hung up in the town, the two changed into the crime tool provided by Ling Xue at the inn - night clothes. Then he flew towards the Qinsi Villa.
Since I don't see coffee, I am a novice, and the light skills I learn are also the most common level and not high. Ling Xue had no choice but to slow down, waiting, and within a while, he would be far behind him.
Fortunately, this town is not big, and the two of them did not delay too long, so they rushed to Qinsi Villa, and landed on the roof of a main hall that was lit by candlelight.
"Yun Xian, I heard that there are guests in the villa today?" The man in black asked, holding a glass.
The two people on the roof were shocked, could it be that the man who opened the door for them today was the Xue Yunxian they were looking for, but why did he refuse to admit it and turn them away?
"Those two came to find their subordinates, but their subordinates have already driven them away." Xue Yunxian put down the wine glass in his hand and sighed heavily. "If the subordinates expect it to be good, they are entrusted by Liucui to come here to find me."
"What about you?" Obviously, the man in black also knows Liucui, and he knows that the two have a great relationship. So I don't understand his move to drive people out.
"Owner, you dismissed the servants just so that they could save their lives, how could I involve her who was so hard to drive away."
"Ugh." After hearing Xue Yunxian's answer, the black-clothed man who was called the owner swallowed the words that came to his lips, sighed helplessly, and drank all the wine in the cup.
When the man in black finished his meal and left, Xue Yunxian was not in a hurry to leave, he sat quietly in his original position for a while, and raised his head slightly to glance at the gap exposed by the rubble uncovered by the two. "Since the two of you are here, come down and ask if you have any questions."
Seeing that their deeds were revealed, Ling Xue and the others had no choice but to get off the roof and step into the house through the main entrance.
"It's the two of us who have offended today, and I hope that Mr. Xue will have a lot." As soon as he landed, he made amends when he didn't see coffee, and called the title of Manager Xue in his mouth, reminding the other party that if he hadn't deliberately concealed it, the two of them would not have made such a decision.
Xue Yunxian didn't seem to be angry about this, he shook his head. "It's okay, today is my unreasonableness. Knowing that the two are not ordinary people, I still want to stop the two of them from continuing to look for me. ”
After the three of them exchanged pleasantries, he didn't give Ling Xue and the others a chance to express their questions, and told the story between him and Liucui.
It turned out that Liucui, who wandered here back then, was rescued by him. At that time, she had not eaten for many days, and fainted from exhaustion on the way back to the villa after his errands, and he couldn't bear to see death without help, so he bought a bowl of porridge at the porridge shop next to her and fed it to her.
Originally, when she woke up and thanked her and left, he thought that the two would never cross paths again. It's just that she didn't expect that she was hired by the old owner who was still there to give the master of the young village bishop Qin, and this stay was seven years.
Liucui is a beautiful and intelligent young woman, and he is a personable young talent, and the two are naturally getting closer and closer because of the grace of that porridge, and finally they are secretly in love and want to be a couple with each other.
It's a pity that just when Xue Yunxian wanted to confess to Liucui and take the initiative to break this relationship, the old owner died of illness at this time. Having lost the protection of the old owner, Qinsi Villa is about to face high pressure from all sides who covet the treasures of the villa and town, and seek revenge for many years.
The young owner of the village did not like martial arts since he was a child, and his own martial arts were mediocre, and Xue Yunxian, who did not have a strong protection, knew that the villa had reached the moment of life and death. However, Liucui is different, she hasn't married herself yet, so she is not a person from the villa, and she has a chance to survive from the villa.
But he also knows Liucui, if he tells her the reason so directly, she will definitely not agree to leave, and will definitely stay and live with him. So, in order to save her life, in desperation, he and the young owner acted in a scene where Lang's heart changed and he married a beautiful woman, and forced Liucui away.
What he didn't expect was that Liucui, who was forced away by him, would not change his mind, stubbornly staying on the top of Ziyi Mountain, looking at the town where his lover was located day and night, looking forward to his well-being......
Hearing the two of them say that Xue Yunxian, who has lived alone on Ziyi Mountain for more than a year, has long since lost the light wind when he first met, Ruyu's face was full of powerless despair and guilt, and the depression that he had worked hard to support for the past year broke out fiercely at the moment when he heard that his sweetheart would never leave him, just like the wine glass that was crushed in his hand.
"Why are you so stupid, why are you so stupid! …… Liucui ...... You should go, you should go...... What are you doing guarding me as a negative person...... You fool......"
He collapsed in his chair in a decadent state, crying out in grief.
Grief seems to be an emotion that can easily contag people, especially the sadness of such a suave man. It will unconsciously turn out the regrets hidden in the hearts of the people around you who are trying to forget, and then resonate with them as bosom friends, so that you can unconsciously empathize with him.
There are many ways to interpret the misfortune of love in this world, but when you trace the source, in fact, there is only one misfortune that leads to the same end, that is, you can't ask for it.
Ling Xue stood there with a faint expression, standing silently on her left side without seeing coffee, her narrow eyes were scattered, her eyes were out of focus, and she seemed to think of some sad memories that he hid and didn't want to forget.
Xue ...... Xue, the chief manager, ......, that, that devil came to the door again......" Without waiting for Ling Xue to speak out and talk to Xue Yunxian and lead to the following tasks, a panicked voice broke the silence of the room faster than her.
Lao Li, the slave who stumbled and ran to report the news, was the night watchman on the villa, and he was also one of the few servants who were reluctant to leave the villa when the owner of the village, Xue Zhiyi, dismissed the servants. Although these servants are unwilling to be treacherous villains when the villa lives and dies, it does not mean that they are not afraid of death.
No, seeing the devil who came to seek revenge, it is already commendable that a little slave who has not had much knowledge in his life can run to the main hall in horror to report the news.
A strong enemy is coming, Xue Yunxian is naturally unable to indulge in his own emotions, he forced the calm on his face, and instructed Lao Li to go down to rest first, no matter what movement he heard, don't open the door and leave his room.
Then, he smiled apologetically at Ling Xue and the others.
"Let's leave quickly, just tell Liucui, my wife is in her arms, she is very fine, please look at the past feelings, don't, don't...... Disturb my life again. ”
Before the words are finished, tears go first. There was helplessness and desolation in his voice, and in the terrible silence of the night, it was like a blunt saw polishing the beating heart in the chest of those who heard it.
Trying to put aside the impact of the emotions released by the NPCs, Ling Xue had great doubts about this hidden mission, but when her eyes followed the route that Xue Yun had left to the front door, it suddenly dawned on her.
"Quick, let's go to the door. Help him defend against his enemies. After she sent a message on the team's channel, she didn't care if the coffee could keep up, and hurriedly ran towards the gate of the villa. I prayed in my heart that it would be too late.
After the Gu King task, Ling Xue only realized at this time that this was another multi-choice hidden task, and different endings would bring different rewards to the player, and if he helped Xue Yun to keep this villa at this moment, the reward would definitely be richer than simply being a mouthpiece.
That's why she's been wondering why the NPCs haven't asked them directly for help.
However, one thing that cannot be ignored is that the NPCs did not ask for help, most likely because the two of them did not have enough skills. And this point was verified to a certain extent when Ling Xue saw the bewitching woman in a purple dress standing at the gate of the villa.
