Chapter 391: A knife, more powerful than a dagger
The sun set and the moon rose, and in the backyard of the hall, Liluo sent away a group of sisters who came to inquire about Jia Baoyu's information, and then came to his bathroom to prepare for a bath.
After removing the light veil and unbuttoning the apron, something suddenly fell out of her belt.
"What is this?" Her maid picked it up curiously, opened it and saw that it was actually two folded silver tickets.
A face value of one hundred, a total of two hundred taels.
"That's so much, who gave this to Miss?"
The maid was surprised.
Liluo also took it and took a look, recalled it in his mind, and immediately knew who gave it.
I hated people who thought he was just quietly taking advantage of himself, so he groped around his waist, but it turned out to be to give a reward......
Well? Didn't he say that he had no money, and it seems that he was also a liar.
Liluo suddenly laughed, and then, he felt a little lost.
She would rather Jia Baoyu didn't give her this silver, in that case, she can also imagine that she is a little different in the other party's heart......
sighed faintly, sure enough, people's hearts are not enough for people.
A person like the other party, who is in the dust, is unattainable after all.
"What does Miss think? Could it be that this silver was given to Miss by Uncle Jing Yuan? ”
"No, someone else gave it."
Liluo denied the maid's speculation, since Jia Baoyu had deceived people, she subconsciously wanted to help him hide all the factors that might be unfavorable to him.
"Alright, put the silver ticket away, I'm going to take a shower."
"Hmm."
The maid took the silver ticket and put down all the curtains, not giving outsiders the slightest chance to watch......
Outside, on the Crystal River.
The sunset gradually dissipates, and on this river full of spring, there are already many flower boats swaying slowly, and countless lights should shine on the river, sparkling, reflecting the entire river surface and the scenery on both sides of the river are different and charming.
On the canopy boat, Wei Xiaoxiao knelt in front of the low table, making tea while looking at the man in front of him.
Hehe, he is really a young man, but he is indeed as handsome as rumored.
She swept her eyes and saw the young man on the boat next to her, who was standing upright and upright, with both swords and swords, just looking around, and she chuckled: "This sir, this guard, is really dutiful." ”
"yes, maybe he's afraid you'll stab me."
The person opposite was propped up on a low stool with one arm behind him, tilting his head slightly, as if he had been fascinated by the moonlight, and he was just careless when he heard the words.
"Sir, aren't you afraid of hurting people's hearts when you say that, do you think people look like assassins?"
Wei Xiaoxiao was very sad, put down the teapot, and made a very weak and weak appearance.
Jia Baoyu finally lowered her head and looked at the woman in front of her who had removed her veil and revealed her stunning beauty.
She also doesn't look very old, but she gives people a very mature feeling, especially her eyes, which are bright and charming, and under the illumination of the surrounding environment, they seem to be loaded into a galaxy, which makes people can't help but want to indulge.
Turning his head slightly, Jia Baoyu picked up the tea that had been brewed in front of him and said with a smile: "This is not for sure." But I think that I have no grudges with Miss Xiaoxiao in the past, and I have no enmity in the near future, even if Miss Xiaoxiao is an assassin, she shouldn't come to stab me. ”
"Hmph, the lord is so annoying, so wronged! The slave family is not working, and the punishment lord also makes tea for the slave family. ”
The beauty was annoyed, pouted, sat down, and gently put the teapot in front of Jia Baoyu.
Jia Baoyu smiled slightly, sat up straight, took the teapot, weighed it slightly, and noticed that there was still a lot of tea left, so he bent down and poured half a cup in the teacup in front of the beauty, and then gestured with one hand: "Please." ”
"Giggle."
The beauty really laughed happily, she picked up the teacup, and said with a smile: "There are few women in the world who can be poured tea by the lord himself, I'm afraid there are not many people, hehe, the slave family is fortunate to be one of them." ”
Then he took a sip of happiness as if he were happy.
"The smiling girl probably thought wrong, many of the maids in Benjue's family have drunk the tea poured by Benjue himself."
Jia Baoyu smiled faintly and added some tea for himself by the way.
Wei Xiaoxiao's movements were suffocated, and then he glanced at Jia Baoyu slightly. actually compared her to a maid, but seriously, her identity as an oiran may not be a noble maid in the mansion of the country.
So it was not easy to distinguish anything from Jia Baoyu, so he turned to look at Jia Baoyu's hand and said with a smile: "The hands of the slave lord are white and moist, the fingers are slender, vigorous but soft, presumably the lord often plays musical instruments, I don't know what the lord is good at, the piano, the hole flute, or the flute?" ”
Jia Baoyu subconsciously spread out his hands and took a look, these hands are indeed well maintained by him, if you really want to talk about it in detail, I am afraid that they are more beautiful than many women's hands.
It's just, is it really that beautiful? Even Wei Xiaoxiao, who met for the first time, paid attention to his hands?
In the long run, will it affect his wise and martial manhood? Could it be that you have to deliberately find some heavy work to do when you go back?
After thinking about it for a moment, he raised his eyes slightly, looked at Wei Xiaoxiao, who was still waiting for him to reply, and smiled at the corner of his mouth: "The piano is not good at playing, the flute is a little better, as for Xiao's thing, Benjue won't, that's what you women should learn......"
"Why?"
Wei Xiaoxiao was still shaking her head and laughing because of Jia Baoyu's modesty, but when she heard this remark, she immediately asked: "Xiao Nai is one of the oldest musical instruments, and since ancient times, it has been mostly learned by men. ”
She looked at Jia Baoyu suspiciously, and saw that Jia Baoyu was doing nothing, but she didn't mean to answer her words at all.
After all, she was not a fool, and she did not know where to think of it, her brows furrowed for a moment, and then two red clouds flew up on her beautiful face.
Her eyes drooped, then she raised them again, looked at Jia Baoyu, and said coquettishly: "The lord is so hateful, he actually said such obscene words. ”
Jia Baoyu was a little surprised to see her react so quickly, but she still didn't know why.
Wei smiled and said: "The lord is so well versed in this way, I want to let the maids in the family practice this technique, no wonder the lord said that many maids in the family have drunk the tea poured by the lord himself, I am afraid it is also to reward them......"
Wei Xiaoxiao's face turned even redder, as if he thought of a more embarrassing picture.
Being in the Qinglou, how could she not know that the had another meaning. Based on Jia Baoyu's previous words, she had to doubt Jia Baoyu's preferences and character......
"I don't understand what you're saying."
Jia Baoyu stretched and took a look at the calm lake. There were a lot of coquettish laughter in the distance, which came from other flower boats.
"It's getting late, it's time for Ben to go."
Jia Baoyu stood up.
Wei Xiaoxiao immediately hid her shyness, and became aggrieved and resentful: "Could it be that the lord doesn't want to stay on the Xiaoxiao boat so much, it's just a while, the lord is leaving, the slave family is really sad." ”
**A moment is worth a thousand gold, and the smiling girl listens to how many people have fallen asleep on the beauties' laps in the distance. In this environment, how can you tell me to drink tea and chat with the girl here with peace of mind?
Miss Xiaoxiao is also considerate and considerate of me, after all, Benjue is also a normal man. ”
Jia Baoyu said with a smile.
Wei Xiaoxiao looked up at Jia Baoyu, naturally she didn't understand the meaning of his words, she suddenly laughed coquettishly, and said, "If the lord is bored, the smiling leg can also be given a pillow for the lord...... If so......"
She paused deliberately twice, staring at Jia Baoyu with rippling eyes, and suddenly her eyes drooped slightly, and said: "If the lord is still not satisfied, I can't say that the lord is going to laugh and 'blow the flute' to the lord, and the laughter will follow, giggle......"
The beauty smiled like a silver bell, and even deliberately bit the accent on the two words of the.
Rao is Jia Baoyu knew that she was deliberately teasing him, but when she heard this, she still subconsciously glanced at her appearance, especially a pair of thin lips...... My body shuddered involuntarily.
This woman is really extraordinary. If you take it back and train it well, the taste will be unimaginable......
was about to respond to this woman, when he suddenly heard Jiang Cun's voice from the boat next to him:
"Be careful, sir!"
Jia Baoyu looked up and saw that at some point, another small boat had already approached their side, and with Jiang Cun's voice, it suddenly began to accelerate towards this side.
From Jia Baoyu's point of view, it can be clearly seen that there are three people on it, two of them are paddling hard, and one is holding a long dagger with cold light, staring at him with a fierce look.
Obviously, the other party was coming at him.
"Quick!! Bump into it! ”
The other party obviously knew that it was exposed, and he no longer covered it up. The speed of the ship was very fast, and the boat on Jia Baoyu's side was much larger, and it was almost stationary, and it was obviously too late to dodge.
"They, they're assassins?!"
Wei Xiaoxiao was frightened by this sudden situation.
But he saw Jiang Cun commanding the boatmen on his side to row a few steps towards this side, and then suddenly made a leap, jumped onto the boat on this side, pulled out the long sword at his waist, and said to Jia Baoyu: "Don't panic, my lord, there are subordinates!" ”
Jia Baoyu nodded, sat back in his original position, and proved with his actions that he was indeed not panicking.
The corners of Jiang Cun's mouth twitched slightly, but he knew that he didn't have time to talk nonsense, so he pulled out the saber on his waist and put it in front of Jia Baoyu. He knew that although Jia Baoyu did not practice martial arts, he was not a person who was powerless.
With this knife, you can also defend yourself. He glanced at Jia Baoyu, who was slightly pale and smiled.
At this moment, the small boat was about to collide with the big ship here, Jiang Cun's eyebrows sank, and before the other party was ready to jump, he jumped up, raised his long sword, and jumped onto the other party's boat like a preemptive strike.
Those few people obviously didn't expect that Jia Baoyu would dare to jump over with a guard on his side, and seeing Jiang Cun menacing, they could only retreat and block in a hurry.
"Bang."
The two ships collided, but only touched once, and then due to the repulsion of the interaction force between each other, each shifted its direction.
Because the three Assassins also missed this opportunity, it was difficult for them to have a chance to get on the big ship.
The violent impact made the people on both sides of the boat unstable.
Because Wei Xiaoxiao and Jia Baoyu were sitting, their center of gravity was low, so they would not bump and fall. It's just that Wei Xiaoxiao looked at Jia Baoyu's face without waves, and he didn't seem to be panicked at all, and he was really surprised: "The lord is really not worried about his safety at all?" ”
Jia Baoyu didn't answer, because the rest of his eyes kept staring at the boat over there, and he suddenly smiled at the corner of his mouth: It turned out to be three rookies, and in such a short time, two of them had been thorned into the river by Jiang Cun.
Jia Baoyu's self-confidence seemed to make Wei Xiaoxiao calm down a lot, she straightened her hair, and suddenly smiled: "Lord Fang Cai still suspects that Xiaoxiao is an assassin, you say, if Xiaoxiao assassinates Lord Xiao at this time, what are the chances of success?" ”
She tilted her head slightly, looking innocent and delicate, completely different from the meaning of the words in her mouth.
"Zero."
Jia Baoyu said lightly.
"Huh." Wei Xiaoxiao laughed coquettishly. I don't know if I laughed at Jia Baoyu's self-confidence, or laughed at my own joke that wasn't funny.
It was only that soon her smile froze on her face, for suddenly a small boat burst out on the left, with many people on it, and one of them was still shouting:
"Second master, we're here to save you!"
Obviously, this is Jia Baoyu's person.
"Alright, now you can stab me." Jia Baoyu said with a smile.
Wei Xiaoxiao was slightly sneering, and smiled softly: "The adult said that he was laughing, how dare Xiaoxiao assassinate the adult, and how can he be willing to assassinate the adult......"
Before the words fell, he suddenly heard the sound of water on both sides at the same time, and both hands were on the edge of the boat at the same time, one of them was still, and the other movement was very gentle and agile, and almost instantly flew onto the boat and flew towards Jia Baoyu.
His movements were so fast that even Jia Baoyu estimated that he didn't have time to stop him with a knife.
He immediately gave up raising his knife to block, just grabbed Wei Xiaoxiao, rolled over, and avoided the other party's fatal blow.
It's a pity that the other party has already boarded the boat, and in addition to Wei Xiaoxiao's maid on the boat, there are also two boat girls, who are all hiding behind the butt of the boat, and it is obviously impossible to come out to save people.
"Rest hurting my family!"
The voice of Jia Baoyu's own soldier was already close, but the assassin was closer.
Jia Baoyu was engrossed in his attention and quietly clenched the knife wrapped under him......
"Sir, be careful!"
But at this time, Wei Xiaoxiao didn't know whether she was frightened, or moved by Jia Baoyu's action to protect her in a hurry, and when the assassin rushed up again, he suddenly pounced on Jia Baoyu and pressed Jia Baoyu against the soft carpet.
The assassin seemed to be all focused on Jia Baoyu's body, not thinking about the delicate woman behind him at all, and was provoked by her actions, and his feet exerted force, but he just kicked the knife that fell out of Jia Baoyu's arms.
She stumbled under her feet, but she reacted very quickly, and stabbed a dagger at Jia Baoyu when she was about to fall.
Jia Baoyu didn't have time to hate Wei Xiaoxiao, a pig teammate, he knew that this knife couldn't be dodged, so he could only try his best to turn sideways and not let it hurt the vital point......
"Knock knock~"
The sound of a succession of people jumping onto deck.
"Protect your lordship!"
"Dog thief, take your life."
After the assassin quickly balanced his body, seeing that there was no chance, he jumped into the river without hesitation, and quickly disappeared.
Besides, the other assassin, who had just overturned the boat, saw a companion who was one step ahead of him, and was about to be assassinated, and he was just about to go up to help, when he was surprised to see a man descend from the sky, jump directly in front of him, and with a "take your life", he was slashed down with a knife.
When he fell, his only thought was: knives, especially more powerful than daggers......
All the short wounds in front of him were spilled
Jia Baoyu said casually, and then sat back in his original position.
Ginger inch
The maid came back not long after she went, and she looked at Jia Baoyu with obvious vigilance in her eyes.
"Our young lady is already on the ship, Uncle Jing Yuan, please come with me."
The maid was far away from Jia Baoyu and made a gesture of please.
"Okay." Jia Baoyu stood up,
