After walking around the island for a day, it was dark, and Ning Qingye's whereabouts were still not found. The search for people was separated, and Man Zhi and Nightingale had already boarded the ship and left Junshan Island first.

Xu Buling saw that it was dark, so he had to give up continuing the search, and boarded the ferry back to Yueyang with Ning Yuhe, preparing to go back to discuss, if Ning Qingye deliberately hid and did not show up, he would have to think of other ways.

Xu Buling took the last ferry, the boat was not big, and the people who took it were all shopkeepers and Lifu who had returned from the market. Many people were tired from a day's work, so they just lay down on the deck of the cabin to rest, and a few men got together to tell meat jokes, and several women spoke more harshly than men, and laughed together.

Xu Buling's dress was incompatible with these people, and he didn't want to disturb the people in the market who had been tired all day, so he didn't enter the cabin, and stood at the bow of the ferry with an umbrella and Ning Yuhe.

After running around all day and not finding Ning Qingye, Ning Yuhe's quiet cheeks were obviously a little lost and tired, holding an oil-paper umbrella and looking at the black lake, I don't know what I was thinking.

Xu Buling stood in front of him and hesitated slightly: "If you refuse to come out at night, tomorrow I will go to the yamen to say hello, and send the box army to search the island, and I will definitely find it by sweeping it in a carpet way." ”

Ning Yuhe pondered for a moment and turned his head: "It's Jianghu people in the early night, and letting the officers and soldiers search for it sounds like catching a thief......"

"Find someone normally, don't think about it."

"I don't have much ......"

The weather was a little cold, Ning Yu tightened the white skirt on her body, and sighed softly: "Qingye has a relatively straight temperament, and when I was a child, my family was purged by the government, and I was very resistant to the officers and soldiers of the imperial court, so I may not be very willing." And her martial arts skills are not low, if she really wants to hide, the officers and soldiers can't find out......"

Xu Buling had an understanding of Ning Qingye's character, and thought about it: "It's really not good, I'll let go out and let the people who beat the Eagle Tower not take care of Qingye." ”

Ning Yuhe shook his head: "Fighting the Eagle Tower will not move Qingye, I am afraid that Qingye will be stubborn." ”

Xu Buling didn't know the details of Li Hansheng, and Ning Qingye never mentioned it to him, so he was a little surprised when he heard it:

"Does the night have anything to do with the Eagle Tower?"

Ning Yuhe sighed, hesitated, and still spoke: "Li Hansheng is Qingye's biological father, and Qingye's mother-in-law Pei Yun committed a crime and was arrested by the imperial court and hid in the cottage in Shudi, while Li Hansheng went to the capital to find an official position. Later, the iron eagle hunted the deer, and the cottage was surrounded and suppressed by the government, Li Hansheng did not rush back, Pei Yun escaped in order to send the night out, and died under the knife of the government, and Li Hansheng's temperament has changed greatly since then. The father and daughter turned against each other and never reunited, but after all, they are Qingye's biological father, and they will definitely not do anything to Qingye......"

After listening quietly, Xu Buling felt a little wrong-Manzhi's father entered the Eagle Tower, at least the position of the second master. Li Hansheng is the leader of the Eagle Tower, and countless gangsters obey him. Now that the relationship between him and Zhu Manzhi and Ning Qingye is unclear, if one day Li Hansheng and Zhu Liuyi jointly raise a banner to rebel, wouldn't he, who was a son-in-law, be forcibly tied to a thief ship?

"It's been a long time, is it still someone from my side who fights Eagle Tower?"

"Qingye hated Li Han to the core, and he had already broken off the father-daughter relationship, and even changed his surname to mine."

Xu Buling frowned slightly-it was said that it was a severed father-daughter relationship, but the court didn't recognize this, and the nine clans didn't care if you were expelled from the house, as long as you were related, even if you didn't know each other, you could cut it off, let alone father and daughter.

If Li Hansheng and Zhu Liuzhen pulled the banner to rebel, the court investigated carefully and found that the sons-in-law of the two were the sons of the king of Su, and the court would not listen to his explanation......

Thinking of this, Xu Buling rubbed his eyebrows, and only felt a headache: "This matter is a bit troublesome, I have to find a way to get rid of the relationship with the Eagle Tower, if someone points out this matter, it will be a big deal." ”

Ning Yuhe knew the stakes of this matter, and comforted softly: "There are few people who know about this, and I only said to the outside world that Qingye was a wild girl who picked it up." ”

"I'm afraid that Li Hansheng will take advantage of this relationship, and with the reputation of 'poisoner', this kind of thing may not be impossible. When the time comes, he will point out the relationship between me and Qingye, and the court will inevitably hold him accountable, and I can't arrest Qingye to prove my innocence, and not arresting it is equivalent to openly disobeying the emperor's name......"

Ning Yuhe frowned: "Although Li Hansheng's methods are vicious, he is also to avenge his deceased wife, so he shouldn't even use the safety of Qingye to coerce you, right?" ”

"The heart of defense is indispensable, who knows......"

Xu Buling sighed and didn't say anything more.

Ning Yuhe pursed his lips, but he didn't know how to deal with this troublesome relationship, so he could only stand beside Xu Buling and think about it together.

Soon, the ferry docked at the wharf, and the Lifu shop men got off the boat one after another, and Xu Buling and Ning Yuhe walked along the small street, passed through the houses where Lifu and the boatmen lived, and turned back to the building boat by the lake.

The night breeze was cold and drizzling.

The ferry port is located on the fringe, mainly transporting tourists and goods nearby, and the surrounding houses are also inhabited by poor families.

In the night, the lights were dim and noisy, there was laughter and scolding from the gambling house, there were men who had lost clean and were thrown out of the gambling stalls and thrown into the muddy streets, and there were also women with ordinary appearances, leaning against the door of the wine shop with half-open clothes, looking left and right at the right rich man.

Walking through this kind of place, the master and apprentice naturally do not squint, but the sound insulation effect of the bottom hook fence is not good, and the two of them are familiar with their ears and eyes, and they can obviously hear the sound of 'popping' and the wheezing of men and women in the hook fence.

"Hmm...... Ah~ Don't ...... like this"

Xu Buling's eternal gaze was pure and unmoved, but Ning Yuhe didn't have this heat, even if he was a monk, he couldn't pretend that it didn't matter, his face was imperceptibly red, and he walked over quickly.

Xu Buling looked at his silly Bai Tian master, and felt a little funny in his heart, but he didn't break it, and walked through the small market side by side with Ning Yu, stepping on a stone arch bridge.

There were no houses at either end of the stone bridge, and there was no one in front of or behind the raging river below, so they could only make out the road by the glimmer of light from the market in the distance.

Ning Yuhe is definitely not afraid of the dark, but he just heard the sound in the hook bar, and the atmosphere of lonely men and widows walking together is inevitably a little wrong, Ning Yuhe thought about it and opened his mouth to introduce:

"When it's not raining, the scenery here is very good, the last time I came here with Manzhi, I saw a lot of young people playing here......"

Before he finished speaking, Ning Yuhe found that the apprentice next to him stopped on the arch bridge.

Ning Yuhe stopped on the stone arch bridge, looked back and forth, there was no one around, and felt that something was wrong:

"Ling'er, what's wrong?"

Xu Buling did not speak.

Ning Yuhe still wanted to look around, but found that the apprentice, who had always been polite, suddenly hugged her and hugged her into his arms.

"Ahh......h
