Early the next morning, the people of Jixiang Town began their day's work step by step. In a lively part of the street, there is a notice posted on the wall, above the notice is a portrait of a handsome and handsome man, and the following is written: "Today, a reward of five hundred taels of silver is offered, and the flower thief Hong Chen Fufa is arrested." Life or death. Please all kinds of chivalrous warriors to actively arrest thieves and support justice. "The notice is clean and new, apparently not a day or two after it was posted.

Zi Yu wandered slowly in front of the notice listlessly, his face full of resentment and helplessness. She wore a bright pink-purple peach blossom pattern half-arm coat today, and also painted exquisite makeup, although this deliberate dress, although not as charming and colorful as the Mid-Autumn Festival, but it can also be regarded as beautiful and vulgar.

There were many pedestrians on the street, some of them stopped in front of the notice to watch and discuss, and those who saw Ziyu almost without exception followed her for a while, one because they thought that this girl was born beautiful, and the other was strange: how could a beautiful girl dare to show her face here at such a moment? Didn't she see the sign on the wall, and didn't she know that there was a flower thief in the area?

Zi Yu's face was gloomy, and she secretly gritted her teeth, eager to shout at these people who were staring at her: What do you see? I'm dressed like this to lure the flower thief! Is it fresh?

It all started last night.

"Shall we leave early tomorrow morning?" Zi Yu asked Zhu Jingchen.

"No hurry, no hurry." Zhu Jingchen stopped on the side of the dim road and yawned, "Before I get up, I still have an extremely important thing to do, and besides, I need my sister to help me." ”

As he spoke, he unhurriedly took out the fire fold from his arms and lit it, and took a photo on the wall next to him: "Sister, please look." ”

Zi Yu saw the reward notice illuminated by him, and was stunned: "What are you doing showing me this?" Could it be that you want to kill this flower thief and take this reward? ”

Zhu Jingchen put away the fire fold: "It's not killing, it's capturing alive!" My sister doesn't know, this Hongchen has done a lot of evil, and my second son Zhu has a vendetta with him, this time I have to capture him alive, otherwise there will be great trouble. My sister must help me with this. ”

"You're going to let me help you capture the flower thief? I don't know martial arts, how can I help you? Looking at Zhu Jingchen's full face, Zi Yu suddenly understood, and her face changed greatly, "You, you, you...... Are you trying to use me to trap him? ”

Zhu Jingchen shook his head and said: "With my sister's stunning appearance on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, if I think this lustful flower thief will definitely take the bait if I see it." My sister is both talented and beautiful, she is a female middle school Zhuge with unparalleled wisdom and scheming, and she has no way to spare, as long as she finds a way to lure him to a secluded place, it will be fine...... Well, it would be better if my sister had a way to use a little more stratagem to make him unable to escape. Seeing Zi Yu's pale and unbelievable look, he raised his eyebrows to express his puzzlement, "Sister, what's the problem, don't want to help me with this?" ”

Zi Yu was stunned and said: "Jingchen, you are so open-minded to me, are you really overconfident in my ability, or don't you take my safety seriously?" ”

Zhu Jingchen grinned again: "Sister, you don't need to worry about your safety, I promised your father to take care of you, how can you let this flower thief be unfavorable to you?" I'll follow you all the way. As he spoke, he leaned closer and came to Zi Yu's side, "My sister is a brave person, if she has this opportunity to outwit the flower thief, will she be as scared as an ordinary little woman, don't you think the opportunity is rare, and want to show her skills?" ”

Zi Yu frowned and smiled bitterly, thinking for a while, he was the only one he could rely on at the moment, if he insisted on refusing and didn't help him, he couldn't leave him alone, in addition, the errand of trapping the flower thief sounded quite interesting, if Zhu Jingchen was to protect him, he wouldn't be so dangerous. So he nodded and said, "Okay, I really think the opportunity is rare, and I really want to show my skills." Say, where should I go to find this person? ”

Zhu Jingchen nodded with satisfaction, turned to look at the notice and said, "This notice was only posted this evening, as far as I know, this person has a habit, that is, as soon as he sees the notice of the bounty for his capture, he will wander around to listen to what the person who posted the notice is talking about him." So tomorrow after dawn, you wander around here, and you will surely meet him. ”

Zi Yu thought for a while and said, "If I can really meet him tomorrow, I will try my best to lure him to the Longxing Inn, and then you must stay outside to make sure that I am not harmed by him." ”

"That's for sure."

Zi Yu looked at the notice on the wall again, thinking that he had just left his father to make peace with Zhu Jingchen, and he actually took such an errand, and the feeling in his heart was really indescribable. I have to say that the days in the rivers and lakes are really colorful.

That night, Zi Yu stayed at the Longxing Inn and picked up the luggage left by Yu Xinglai for her. When I dressed up and stopped downstairs the next morning, I saw Zhu Jingchen leaning against the counter drinking tea, smiling at her with a mouthful of white teeth to show that she was in office. Zi Yu nodded slightly and stepped out of the door.

She was still a little interested in this matter, but as soon as she came to the street, she thought that the flower thief might be staring at her nearby, and she felt faintly hairy in her heart, and became more and more resentful that Zhu Jingchen had found such an outrageous errand for herself.

When I came to the notice, I saw that there were already several people around the place looking at the notice and discussing. Zi Yu paid attention to the surroundings, but did not see a face similar to the person in the portrait, and also stepped forward to watch.

I only heard the onlookers discuss: "Five hundred taels, the head of this flower thief is really valuable." "Don't you know, I heard that this Hongchen has committed crimes everywhere in the past two years, and has harmed countless women from good families." "Yes, I went to visit relatives in the city a few days ago, and I heard that this person has recently committed another crime, and he actually harmed the daughter of the magistrate." When the rest of the people heard this, they all sighed that this flower thief was bold and guilty.

Zi Yu was cold for a while, and said secretly: Zhu Jingchen, if you cause me to follow in the footsteps of that county magistrate, I will not let you go!

At this time, the second son of Zhu, who swore to protect her secretly, no longer knew where the "secret" had gone, and he couldn't see it anyway.

Another person said: "But judging from this portrait, this person has a good appearance, and it is difficult to say that the girls who were picked by him were voluntary." There was another burst of laughter.

Zi Yu raised his willow eyebrows, and a strange idea came up: If a good-looking person becomes a flower thief, can he be baited? According to this theory, isn't Qin Haobai or Rainy Goods Born to be a flower thief? Thinking of the posture of the rain, Zi Yu couldn't help but sneer, the fairy boy thinks very highly of himself, knowing that he doesn't need to be tempted at all, there are countless women who are thinking about throwing themselves into their arms, and there is no need to "pick flowers", compared with him, the little white young master who is still indifferent and not close to women is much more decent.

Suddenly, two masked men in white also came to watch the notice, and Zi Yu avoided it. I happened to see the slender and white hand of the man in white hanging down from the sleeve of the man nearby, and I noticed that this person was actually a woman, and it turned out that there were women among these strange people in white. The woman in white looked at the notice for a moment, then glanced at Zi Yu lightly, turned around to leave, and the tall thin man next to her also wanted to follow, but she saw Zi Yu at a glance, and her footsteps were stunned.

Zi Yu didn't understand what he had attracted his attention for a while, but suddenly saw the man draw his sword out with a "swish", the sword light flickered, and his head trembled, and the pearl hairpin was actually picked by him with the tip of the sword and held it in his hand.

Zi Yu was shocked: "You...... Do what? Give me back the hairpin. ”

The man in white pinched the bead hairpin and sneered: "This hairpin is yours?" I don't see it. ”

"You ......" A few thoughts quickly turned in Zi Yu's mind, and he immediately thought, could this person recognize this hairpin and recognize the wind groaning?

Before she could think about it, a cool breeze suddenly brushed her ears, and she saw a dark brown shadow flash in front of her, and then the man in white seemed to be taken aback and retreated, and raised his long sword as if facing a great enemy. Another man's voice sounded in Zi Yu's ears: "This benevolent brother actually molested a girl on the street and robbed the pearl hairpin on someone's head, such a despicable act was seen by the flower thief, and he had to sigh to himself." ”

Zi Yu turned his head to see that there was a tall young man in a dark brown robe standing next to him, about twenty-five or sixteen years old, with a pink face and a smile, a pair of Danfeng fine eyes flowing tactfully, handsome and charming, looking at the man in white with a smile.

Zi Yu glanced at the portrait, then at the person, back and forth, and began to feel a violent tingling of the scalp - although the masked man who robbed her golden hairpin was terrible, how could he get into this flower thief?

The pearl hairpin was in this Hongchen's hand, and he didn't know how he snatched it in the blink of an eye. The man in white lost a move, obviously unwilling, and glared at him angrily. The woman in white on the side said indifferently: "Don't make more trouble, let's go." The man listened to her, silently took the sword, and left with her. The woman in white glanced at Hong Chen again before turning around, and Hong Chen flew at her without hesitation. I saw that Ziyu fell goosebumps.

The people who were originally watching the notice were all staring at Hong Chen in surprise at this time. Hong Chen glanced at them and said lazily, "What are you going to do with the five hundred taels of silver when you see them here?" ”

Without exception, those people turned around and fled. None of them are from the rivers and lakes, and when they saw this trick of Hongchen snatching the pearl hairpin, they all understood that this was a character who could not be provoked, but they didn't have the courage to arrest him. Zi Yu also began to break out in a cold sweat: According to this person's kung fu, is Zhu Er Gongzi really his opponent?

Hong Chen turned to Zi Yu with a smile at this time: "The girl is so beautiful, and she dares to show her head when she knows that there is a flower thief, which shows that she is very brave." As he spoke, he handed over the hairpin.

Zi Yu didn't say that he reached out to pick it up, and when he saw it, he was already furious in his heart, and subconsciously took a step back. These were really a pair of eyes peculiar to a flower thief, and as soon as this gaze shot at her body, it was as if she had seen her through her clothes, as if she had lost her body just by looking at her like this.

In fact, this is all her preconceived judgment, this Hongchen is just a god in his eyes, and his eyes are as sharp as rain and Qin Haobai. If someone tells her that Yu Fenyang is a flower thief, she will have this impression of Yu Fenyang when they meet her for the first time, and maybe even more.

Hong Chen tilted his head to look at her, still smiling at the corners of his mouth, and threw the bead hairpin over with a flick of his right hand, which was just inserted back into Zi Yu's head. Zi Yu was even more startled, turned around and walked a few steps to the side, almost ran away, and remembered that he was on a mission, so he barely stopped, and thought of countermeasures in his heart.

Hong Chen saw that she wanted to run and stopped, as if she was planning something, he couldn't help but be curious, hugged his hands and looked at her and said, "Isn't the girl trying to earn these five hundred taels of silver?" ”

Zi Yu was flustered, but when he accidentally raised his eyes and saw the Maitreya Temple on the hillside in the distance, his mood was instantaneous. He is the one who has helped Shanqing Sword Immortal resist dozens of masters, compared to those fierce gods and evils, is this flower thief really more difficult to deal with? Thinking about it like this, I was proud and secretly made up my mind.

Turning his head to look at Hong Chen again, Zi Yu smiled at him with a shy smile: "So what? After saying that, he immediately quickened his pace and walked forward.

This smile really shows the moving grace of the girl's spring. Seeing her like this, Hong Chen was even more curious, and he started to follow.

Zi Yu walked for a while, and tried to look back again, but Hong Chen was nowhere to be seen, and he was not seen when he looked around. I was puzzled for a while, could it be that my bait was not attractive enough and the fishing plan failed?

When she turned around again, she saw that Hong Chen was already in front of her, and she was not more than a foot away from her. Zi Yu hurriedly retreated, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

Hong Chen smiled and said, "Is the girl looking for me?" ”

Zi Yu calmed down, thought for a moment, lowered his head and said softly: "I know that someone wants to arrest you, you better go and avoid it." So saying, he walked around him.

Hong Chen reached out with his fingers, and grabbed her sleeve with a very light movement, and fear quickly spread from this sleeve to Zi Yu's whole body.

"What is the reason why a delicate woman like you who is shy to answer should warn me to be careful like a flower thief?" Hong Chen whispered, and leaned a little closer, "In my opinion, the so-called person who the girl wants to arrest me is yourself, right?" ”

Zi Yu glanced at him, covered his mouth with his sleeves, and smiled charmingly: "Exactly, then are you afraid?" ”

Hong Chen was even more puzzled: This little girl is obviously scared to death, but she is still seducing him, what kind of fame is this?

Zi Yu took the opportunity to withdraw his sleeves, smiled at him again, and walked away quickly. I secretly sighed that there was another important stroke in my experience in the rivers and lakes, that is, to pretend to be a flower thief and tempt each other! This is all thanks to Zhu Jingchen's little leather child, and I really have to settle accounts with him in the future!

I didn't dare to hesitate anymore, and hurried back to the inn. I came upstairs to my room, turned around and looked at the corridor, and there was no trace of Hong Chen. When she closed the door and turned around, she saw Hong Chen standing in front of her again. Zi Yu's face turned pale with fright for a while, how could this person act like a ghost?

"The girl obviously intended to lure me here, so why should she be so frightened now?" Hong Chen said with a smile again.

This man is obviously used to laughing, and this smile seems to be painted on his face, and it will not disappear for a long time. Lu Yinghui is also a frequent smile, but it is a gentle and amiable smile, extremely decent and sincere; Yu Fenyang is also a frequent smile, but it is a hidden witty and confident smile. Hong Chen is different from them, his smile is naturally charming, with teasing, in Zi Yu's opinion, it is a typical smile of a flower thief.

Zi Yu had already held a small packet of medicinal powder in the cuff of his right hand, tried his best to calm down, paced a few steps to the side and said, "Since Childe knows that I intended to bring you here, he still entered my house without warning, which can be regarded as commendable. ”

Hong Chen paced with her, and explained with a slow smile: "This is not called 'commendable courage', but 'lustful and courageous'." I, Hongchen, have never been defensive about beautiful girls, if the girl has any ill intentions towards me, you might as well show it, I can't be happy to pick up the girl's tricks. ”
