Chapter 9: The Feather of the Mayfly (9)
Although he had already realized that there was no need to be so cautious when he arrived at the gate of the Dusk Courtyard, Yi Lan still looked inside first before walking in lightly.
There are houses on three sides of this courtyard, and she didn't know which one she chose, so she walked to the middle of the courtyard first, stopped and closed her eyes to feel something quietly, and raised a hand again.
The wide sleeves only swayed gently with the movement of her hand, and the wind never blew, let alone any other air current.
Yi Lan opened his eyes, raised both hands, and then grabbed them in the air. If you can't catch this place, you will change places, and it is not until you have already walked around the yard for most of the time that you hang your hand in frustration.
She still looked at the air, frowning slightly.
Xuan Yu used Jiuxiao Qirihua to release all the internal forces, so these internal forces should not be too far away from him. If it is divided into one piece of land and too close to each other, it is easy to collide and be noticed by others, so it should be scattered.
He is in this courtyard now, the room is not very wide, and it will definitely not let the internal forces crowd in it, and it can't be too far away, so it can only be placed in the courtyard.
But she didn't feel it at all, and she wanted to cry with envy for a moment.
What kind of exercise is this, it is simply a gift from the gods, if only she could learn one trick and two styles.
Not to mention the realm of transforming power into a restless realm, it is good to be able to release a little excess internal force in her body.
And the man who came out of the West House and saw her jumping and scratching alone in the yard, and after finally stopping, she put on a look of wanting to cry without tears, twitched the corners of his mouth, walked out from under the porch, and said, "Are you hungry?" "I'm so hungry that I jump up and down, and I have to cry.
Yi Lan turned around and saw that he was carrying a tray, and the clothes on the tray were a bit like the one Xuan Yu wore on his body before, so he also approached and asked, "Why are you here?" ”
Nanhai - The whole ups and downs, whether it is the headquarters or the branch, not all the people are killers, and there are a large number of guards with martial arts even higher than ten killers to guard the villa, in order to prevent people from coming to the stronghold to seek revenge. Feng He is the leader of the guards of the South China Sea, and the one in front of him is Chang Qing, the killer leader of the South China Sea who specializes in training ten seats.
Exhaled, Chang Qing said: "It's the head of a faction, I have to come over and arrange it myself." ”
"Arrangement is arrangement, is it necessary to do it?" Yi Lan stretched out his hand and lifted the clothes to take a look, and found that it was indeed Xuan, and he inevitably felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, "Even if he is the pavilion master, what kind of identity are you, you can be regarded as a high-ranking person who is up and down, and you can serve him personally?" ”
Chang Qing coughed, but he didn't think so, and looked at her with some amusement: "You have to sacrifice your life to serve others as a deputy leader, and I am your subordinate, so it should be even more so." ”
"Am I the same as you, I'm ......" After realizing the meaning of his words, Yi Lan's eyes widened instantly, and he almost slapped over, "Don't listen to Lifan's nonsense, who is lost!" ”
Chang Qing, who had expected it for a long time, quickly took a few steps back and shrugged his shoulders: "I didn't say that you lost your body, I mean that you worked hard, others don't understand you, I should always share some of it for you." ”
Seeing that her body was rising and falling with anger, he still continued: "I think the master of the Xuan Pavilion is quite gentle, and you should not be wronged if you marry." What's more important is that the Xuan family has assets, and the dowry to Nanhai will not be less, and we don't have to take care of our family when the time comes, and we can afford to support ourselves. ”
Yi Lan was looking at him through gritted teeth, and couldn't help but be stunned again: "Dowry? To the South Seas? ”
"Ups and downs are your mother's family, and this dowry is naturally for the chief. Seeing that you have made such a great contribution to the ups and downs, how can the leader spend a part of it on the South China Sea. Chang Qing smiled and said, "Yilan, this wave is not a loss." ”
“…… I don't think you really need to treat me like a monkey, if the South China Sea really lacks money to such a point one day, I'll sell you. ”
Glaring at him one last time, Yi Lan turned around and was about to enter the house, Chang Qing called out directly: "You calm down, the Xuan Pavilion Lord is bathing." ”
Before she "climbed" out of the carriage, Xuan asked her to go to him after solving the problem of the disciples in Chongxiao Pavilion. Then he's bathing now, doesn't she have an excuse not to look for it?
Yi Lan immediately braked, jumped out of the corridor in excitement, ran towards the gate of the courtyard without looking back, and did not forget to instruct: "After he washes, you let him eat and rest first, and don't worry about anything else." Find someone to serve him - tell him I've been here, and I definitely didn't leave on purpose! ”
After running out of the twilight courtyard, Yi Lan returned to the Futong Courtyard and saw that Feng He seemed to be waiting at the gate of the courtyard on purpose. Next to her was Qiantong, one of the guards who accompanied her every day, and she also held two blueprints in her hands.
Realizing what it should be, Yi Lan's steps slowed down, and he reluctantly walked over to the two of them with a smiling expression.
"Okay, stupid or not, forgot that you just checked the ledger of the previous season a few days ago?" Feng He simply smiled and stepped forward to drag her into the courtyard, "This is the assessment record of some newcomers, I just finished sorting it out yesterday, I will bring it to you to see." ”
"I know." Yi Lan waved his hand in frustration, "It's better to be an account book." ”
Feng He raised his eyebrows, knowing what she was mourning, he thought about it and said, "You really don't have to be so reluctant, if Chang Qing arranges for several of them to have different tasks on the same day, can you still follow each of them?" ”
"That's why I told him not to be so compact."
"He's been thinking about it for a long time, and he's about to take this batch to try." Feng He patted her on the shoulder, "Lan Lan, everyone's ideas are forced, some people become killers because they no longer have any expectations for this world, so they choose danger, resign themselves to fate, and get by." Some people regard this as dignity, admit death when they lose, and are more willing to die as a relief than to survive. ”
Qian Tong silently glanced at his own commander, he didn't know how many times he had said this, he could recite it completely. Looking at the deputy leader again, he really looked tired of listening, rushed over and grabbed the blueprint in his hand and ran back to his house as if he were running for his life.
Yi Lan has always flashed fast, although she is not on the martial arts list, but Qiong Hualou, who is recognized as the most authoritative intelligence center on the rivers and lakes and one of the seven decent factions, once said that no one in the martial arts can catch her, although I don't know how they came to this conclusion, but it seems that this is indeed the case at present.
The door of the house slammed shut, and Qian Tong said lightly: "Commander, people's ideas can't be forced, and you shouldn't force the ideas of the deputy leader." ”
Feng He pinched his waist and sighed: "That's no way, don't you don't want her to be sad, you see that she has become accustomed to doubting life for this matter." ”
"The deputy leader is different from us, what she wants to do, the commander follows her and encourages her is the first priority." Qiantong lowered her head, "Anyway, whether she is happy or sad, it's all her own, and she thinks it's meaningful." ”
Futong Courtyard is the residence of Yi Lan, Feng He and Chang Qing, and the three of them occupy three rooms in the south, east and west respectively.
After bathing and changing into a clean white coat, after washing and drying the previous clothes, Yi Lan was finally able to sit on the bed.
I just wanted to lie back, but suddenly remembered that there were still important things I hadn't read, so I could only move to the bookcase and sit down with a bitter face, pick up a pen, open the blueprint that I had just grabbed, and start reading with my chin propped up.
Her head began to hurt when she looked at it, and her empty stomach was an inopportune reminder that she hadn't eaten for almost a day. She stretched, thinking that she would go to dinner after reading a book, so she quickly glanced at it.
Then he fell asleep on the table.
Consciousness regained because he felt his body being touched and moved strangely.
Yi Lan frowned slightly, rubbed the corners of his eyes, and when he opened his eyes, he felt his body sit down again. Unlike the touch of the chair, this one is softer.
When she looked up, there was indeed a figure in front of her, and she couldn't see it clearly, only then did she realize that it was already dark. It's going to be summer, and it's getting dark late, so it's at least here now, but it should be later than it's going to be right.
My eyes still hurt a little, and my consciousness was not particularly clear, so I still didn't wake up.
She yawned, lifted the bedclothes folded in the bed, shrunk her legs in, and asked casually, "Why are you here?" ”
A sigh came from above, followed by a helpless warm tone: "Carry you to the bed and sleep." ”
Yi Lan was stunned for a moment, and turned his head to look back: "Xuan? ”
The puzzled tone instantly made the visitor frown, and the next moment she felt the cold air rushing to her face, and the figure obviously leaned down, and the cold air made her shiver.
He asked in a deep voice, "Who else can enter your bedroom?" ”
"I thought it was ......" is right, whether it is Fenghe or Changqing, it must not matter if she falls asleep on the table, she will wake her up if she is in a hurry.
Yi Lan lowered his head and exhaled, "I don't think you can do this." ”
Xuan's eyebrows immediately wrinkled even tighter, he straightened up and looked down at her, and his voice was even more displeased: "Don't always say 'no, no, no' to men in the future." ”
Yi Lan raised his eyebrows slightly, raised his head and looked at his face in the dark: "Even if I don't have anything to covet, but I'm a woman, you can't enter my room and touch me without my permission." ”
"......" Xuan Xuan pursed his lips, "If you don't come to me, I can only come to you." ”
That's the thing. During the day, he hugged her all the way, but did not say a superfluous word, and only when he was about to reach the South China Sea did he order her to go to him later.
Given that the exercises practiced by this person were a bit magical, even if the disciples of the entire South China Sea besieged him together, it would still be difficult to guarantee that there would be no casualties, let alone whether this Zhuangzi would be forced to be demolished. For the sake of her, a little broken Zhuangzi who has just been in charge for two years, she must follow his heart and prevent him from letting go of himself if he is unhappy.
Fortunately, after half a night's sleep, I was almost mentally ready to make a deal with the devil, and I was not fully awake at the moment, and I was more courageous than usual, striking while the iron was hot, just right.
With a sigh of relief, Yi Lan simply got up, raised his arms as if encouraging himself, and said resolutely: "Then let's go, go out and learn!" "The daily lines of his own disciples.
Xuan Yu watched speechlessly as she took two steps forward with righteousness, and then turned around suddenly without realizing something, dancing in a panic: "No, it's not a discussion, let's go out and talk." I happened to be hungry, so I stopped by the East Kitchen to get something to eat, don't hit me, please. ”
“……”
After leaving the Futong Courtyard, Yi Lan took Xuan Yu straight to the East Kitchen, and before picking the lock, he deliberately asked him if he was hungry, and then closed the door and went in for less than a moment, and then came out in good spirits.
She looked up at the sky, and was thinking that the villa was not suitable for conversation, so she might as well go to the roof, and then she spoke: "Your East Kitchen in the South China Sea has no guards. ”
Yi Lan tilted his head to look at him: "The guards of the South China Sea are all guarding the periphery of the villa, and there is no inside. He shrugged again: "It's all your own people, why defend yourself." ”
The reason why the headquarters and various branches need to set up a special escort team is to resist the "revenge" of the entrusted object. Ups and downs have always been above board, and they reported their homes to assassinate the entrusted object. In this way, if the deceased client has relatives who want to avenge him, and does not know the identity of the client, there is a high probability that the revenge will be found.
…… Of course, this is not speculation, how long ago the South China Sea was really sought revenge. At that time, there was no special escort team for Fushen, and it was because of this precedent that the headquarters and the four major branches set up a special escort team to guard the stronghold, all of which were disciples of Fushen, but they were different from full-time killers.
Of the five strongholds, the South China Sea has the fewest "records", as for why it was also the South China Sea that was sought revenge......
The South China Sea is the weakest, it is well known.
Of course, it wasn't her who was in charge of the South China Sea at that time, she was only a few years old. Even if it were, there was nothing to be ashamed of, and the stronghold was not breached.
Therefore, this guard is always an outsider, and everyone in the villa knows how to fight, so there is no need to be on guard.
Ran Xuan said: "Hidden arrows are difficult to prevent, once someone mixes in, and wants to use poison to wipe out the entire South China Sea, the best choice is the well, followed by the East Kitchen." "And the well used in the South China Sea is outside the mountain villa, and there are guards nearby.
She smiled disdainfully: "How could anyone get into ......?"
Wu Di stopped, for some reason he broke out in a cold sweat, stiffly turned his neck to look at Xuan Yu who seemed to be smiling beside him, swallowed his saliva, turned back and said: "It makes sense, I will find a team of people to surround this place tomorrow." ”
