Twenty. Wind and Bamboo Story

The knife, reflecting the moonlight, Leng Sensen trembled and pressed up, hanging less than a foot on the tip of his nose.

Xiao Fei quickly withdrew his hand and pretended to be asleep, Qin Nanxi closed his eyes and stopped breathing.

A black hand, like a ghost, stopped in mid-air, landed on the burden next to Qin Nanxi's pillow, groped twice, and the burden left Qin Nanxi's pillow.

"Give it back!" A scream. I don't know where I came from, Qin Nanxi snatched back the burden, hugged it tightly in his arms, opened his eyes wide, and sat on the bed in horror and stared at him.

The black shadow was obviously shocked! The big knife Huo Ran cut down......

"Let's go to the water! Let's go to the water! Hurry up and save people! Little Fly in the corner of the bed screamed hysterically.

"Shut up!" The black shadow let out a low cry and followed the knife shadow to Qin Nanxi's neck.

Xiao Fei was abruptly silent, and his body shrank on the corner of the bed and shook like chaff.

"Take" the black hand to take away the small burden.

Qin Nan hugged him and resolutely refused to let go.

Outside the door, there was a sound of footsteps and the shouts of the shopkeeper and the guys, "Oh! Disastrous! Where is the water? ”

In the room, three heads were turning together towards the door in the dark.

"Whoosh~" The black shadow jumped out of the small wooden window like a wild dog flying over the wall in the dark night. The window sash, which had been suddenly knocked open, hit back on the lattice like a frightened one, and there was a crackling sound.

There was a "clang", and the door was slammed open. The doorway was stuffed with disheveled shopkeepers and a few men with frightened expressions.

I don't know who lit the lights in the room.

"Ah~" your hand. Xiao Fei was startled, and reached over to cover Qin Nanxi's bubbling wound.

"You're stupid! I don't know how to scream when my hand hurts like this! You don't hurt! Xiao Fei was shocked and anxious.

Qin Nanxi retracted his gaze staring at the window, looked down at the small strip of wrapped wrap torn in his hand and the blood on his right arm, was afraid and painful, and cried.

There was chaos in the room.

The shopkeeper confirmed that there was no fire, so he perfunctorily complained about the theft of the two people complained by Xiaofei, and only sent someone to find some hemostatic medicine and clean cloth for the two of them, and then withdrew with a group of yawning guys.

"Are you crazy? What is more valuable than life? Xiao Fei complained while bandaging Qin Nanxi.

"For me, the stuff in that baggage is really more important than my life." Qin Nanxi was teary-eyed, regretting that she was not cautious enough, and she should have kept the dance book entrusted by Mr. Su close to her. The dance score and the nursery rhyme that I firmly engraved in my heart were promised to Mr. Su back then, and he must hand it over to Brother Xu and tell Brother Xu in person. But now only the nursery rhymes engraved in my heart remain.

"There's a lot of silver tickets in that baggage?" Xiao Fei bared his teeth and was very distressed.

Qin Nanxi came back to his senses, grinned the corners of his mouth in pain, shook his head, and looked at the window stupidly.

"Then you're crazy! What else is more expensive than life money? What's worth more than a silver ticket? You are really a rich lady, you don't eat fireworks in the world, so you get hurt yourself, and you won't have money tomorrow! See what you do? Little Flyer chattered.

"What are you afraid of? I promised to pay the old accounts for you, and I will do it. Qin Nanxi retracted her sad gaze, gritted her teeth and endured the pain, and did not forget to take care of Xiaofei.

"You, you're really..." Xiao Fei glanced at Qin Nanxi and shook his head, but his subordinates were a little lighter.

"Forget it, don't be too sad. I know there's a snake in this area, and he'll be able to find the thief. It's just that there is some overhead to find him. Xiao Fei breathed righteousness.

Qin Nanxi's eyelashes jumped, stared at Xiao Fei for a moment, and a trace of coldness swayed in his tone: "It's okay, you say how much money you want, as long as you can find that burden for me." After a pause, she received again: "I care so much about that burden because there is a dance book left to me by my late mother, and that is the only thought that my mother gave me, I must find it back!" ”

"Just a dance book? Do you know how much silver it costs to find that Pi Wuxun? How much money do you have with you? Xiao Fei jumped up and felt incredible.

"I still have some money on me, but it's not much, and I asked Sister Xiaofei to find the snake for me, I must find the burden back." Qin Nanxi withdrew his injured arm, wrapped the last section of cloth by himself, and a pair of bottomless eye waves stared at Xiaofei calmly.

"I, I, I don't know Pi Wu himself, so I can only ask a local I know to look for it." Xiao Fei's eyes were a little evasive.

A knock on the door interrupted the two.

"Who?" The two of them stood up alertly.

Outside the door, there stood a burly man, dressed in tight black, with a stiff face on his face, and a small burden in his hand.

"My baggage!" Qin Nanxi snatched it and hugged it in his arms.

"Who is this hero....?" Xiao Fei stuck to the edge of the door, his toes rubbing on the ground.

"Please also ask the little boy to see what is missing in the baggage?" The big man's lips didn't move, but a deep voice came out.

Qin Nanxi hurriedly opened the baggage. A yellowed dance book, two changes of clothes, and the small waist knife "Bing Lu" that he took to defend himself on the road at the moment of departure when he left. One by one, all well.

"Thank you, knight! I have a lot of stuff in my bag. Qin Nanxi looked up gratefully.

"Just a few!" Xiao Fei shook his head helplessly on the side, his eyes full of shock and puzzlement.

Qin Nanxi ignored Xiao Fei, shook the figure, and said: "I am grateful for my help today, I don't know the name of the chivalrous man." Please also ask the knight to inform me that I will thank you after my birthday. ”

"No need, when we meet in Pingshui, it's just a gesture, just a lot of things in the child's baggage, and I will say goodbye." With that, the shadow bowed.

On his pitch-black cuffs, a delicate silver silk wind bamboo pattern flashed.

"Do you recognize this man?" Ah Fei craned his neck and looked at the black back in the distance while closing the door.

"I don't recognize it!" Qin Nanxi shook his head, his mind only immersed in the very familiar wind bamboo pattern.

"The road is uneven? Oh, how can it be such a coincidence? Bring a human skin mask and wait for the road to be uneven? Xiao Fei tilted his head and looked at Qin Nanxi.

"Human skin masks?"

"Oh, don't say you haven't seen it! How I think he's specifically designed to protect you. Xiao Fei folded his hands and looked Qin Nanxi up and down.

"Look at what? When I say I don't recognize it, I don't recognize it. If you don't believe me, get me out at once!" Qin Nanxi suppressed the doubts in her heart, her apricot eyes widened, and she first stifled Xiaofei's chatter and inquiry.

"I'm just, just curious. Miss Su, don't be annoyed, don't be annoyed. Xiao Fei was afraid that he would be kicked out, so he immediately complied with it, and came over to help Qin Nanxi to the bedside.

Night, again to tranquility.

The palpitations, doubts and bursts of pain in his arms disturbed Qin Nanxi, who had no intention of sleeping peacefully.

Tossing and turning, secretly wondering, where have you seen that silver silk wind bamboo pattern? Why is it so familiar?

Suddenly, my heart lit up, and I remembered my brother's most precious sandalwood burner, the carved pattern, too: a lonely thin bamboo, proudly independent in the wind. It's the same as the mark on the cuff of the man in black.

"Brother?" Qin Nanxi was surprised, but even more puzzled. My brother is the same as my father, he is a literati and Confucian through and through, how can he have dealings with the chivalrous warriors in the rivers and lakes? Even if his brother made some friends on the rivers and lakes and asked them to protect himself all the way, why did he cover his face? Besides, if they are just ordinary interactions, why does his brother's favorite wind and bamboo pattern appear on his sleeve? Could it be that he deliberately showed the wind and bamboo pattern to himself?

A gust of night wind poured in from the broken window, freezing Qin Nanxi's whole body, and when he turned around, he saw that Xiao Fei next to him had already fallen asleep, and he was curled up at the moment, muttering in his sleep, moving his frozen body, stroking his aching arm, and holding the little burden tightly in his arms, Qin Nanxi lay down. Secretly thinking that after walking for half a month, I will be able to reach the northern frontier, and the people and clues that my brother said are firmly in my heart. Brother Xu, this time it's really close.
