Chapter 190: Tiger's Den
Late at night, the wind was blowing. The bare branches were whining.
Chu Tianya read "The General Essentials of the Martial Arts" with a candlelight, and soaked his feet in the warm hot water of the wooden basin. Wanyan Daike came over again with half a bucket of hot water, and there was a layer of fine beads of sweat on his forehead.
"No soaking, it's time for me to sleep." Chu Tianya put down the book, raised his hands and stepped on the edge of the wooden basin.
Wanyan Daike hurriedly put down the bucket and picked up a dry towel to wipe his feet, gently and meticulously, and paid full attention.
Chu Tianya quietly looked at the woman in front of him, under the dim light of the oil lamp, her side was exactly the same as Xiao Linglong, which gave him an illusion several times.
But Xiao Linglong would never do such a thing, washing a man's feet.
After drying his feet, Wanyan Daike put on cloth shoes for him again, and then went with the wooden basin silently.
Chu Tianya got up and walked into the bedroom, but heard a slight snoring sound coming from the room.
He couldn't help but laugh dumbly, and stepped forward to slap the guy on the bed who was sleeping soundly.
"Ahh
Two confused and panicked women's screams sounded ambiguous and ecstatic in the middle of the night.
"I told you to warm the bed, why did you fall asleep by yourself?" Chu Tianya said, "Get up, I have to sleep." ”
"Oh......" Zhu'er climbed down from the bed in a daze, and was about to touch the ground with her feet, but she looked up at him, "Didn't you tell me to warm the bed?" ”
"yes, the bed is already warm. You're good to go. Chu Tianya said very calmly.
Zhu'er's mouth pursed, staring at Chu Tianya angrily.
"Not leaving?"
"Hmph, let's go!" Zhu'er put on her shoes and walked out in embarrassment, and when she arrived at the door, she turned around and grimaced at him, "I really doubt if you are a man!" ”
"Huh!" Chu Tianya laughed indifferently and walked to the side of the bed to check carefully.
This bed is indeed warm, and there is still a girl's body fragrance. However, Chu Tianya did not feel the slightest bit of ugliness, but was very vigilant.
Zhu'er is good at poisoning drugs, and it is difficult to guarantee whether she will do anything in bed; In addition, Chu Tianya always felt that there was another pair of eyes staring at him in this room, making him feel uncomfortable all the time.
After making sure that the bed was not poisoned, he simply stripped off his clothes and went to bed, blew out the lamp and lay down.
After a few moments, the window was pushed open, and a figure rolled in. Before the person landed, he heard a voice first, "Young master, don't be surprised, it's me!" ”
"I knew it was you." Chu Tianya breathed a sigh of relief, and Uncle He had already arrived at the bedside. He first inspected the bedside with his hands and feet, and then said reassuringly: "It's okay, it's okay." ”
"You're here a long time ago?" Chu Tianya asked.
"Hmm." He Bo sat beside Chu Tianya and said in a low voice, "Actually, in the past few days, I have come back every night to have a look. Although there are tigers and guards around, if the people around the young master want to harm you, it will be impossible to prevent it. ”
"I knew that you wouldn't leave me alone, old man." Chu Tianya said with a smile, "What have you been busy with in the recent past time?" ”
"Haha, toss!" He Bo said with a smile, "I took more than thirty people from the martial arts hall to the back mountain of Tianhu Peak!" ”
"What are you going to do there?" Chu Tianya asked curiously. Tianshu Peak, nominally the main peak of Qixingzhai, used to belong to the territory of Dazhai Zhuguan Mountain. But there are many poisonous insects and beasts in the strange peaks and dangerous mountains, not to mention that it is difficult to climb, even if you go up, it is quite dangerous. Therefore, Guan Shan has always lived in the Seven Star Hall.
"I'm going to select and train a group of sturdy dead guards for the young master." He Bo said, "This time is different from the past, young master, you have already made a big move." You may have an army of 100,000 under your command, but you can't always keep them with you. If you make an assassin or something, it's easy to get into trouble. Now the Tiger Ben army guarding the young master is loyal, and Tang Ang and Anu are also very capable, but they are generals and soldiers after all, and it is not a problem to charge into battle, and the defense of the protector is not so good, especially when they encounter master assassins. Figuratively speaking, now, the old man swaggered into the young master's room, but they didn't know it. ”
"I see what you mean." Chu Tianya said gratefully, "Do you want to pick some real martial arts masters to be my personal bodyguards?" ”
"That's what it means." He Bo said, "Actually, the old man has long had this thought, but he has never had the opportunity or the conditions. Now, Qixingzhai is famous, and the martial arts hall has attracted many real martial arts masters to learn from each other. I found more than thirty of the best warriors among them, and gathered them together for selection and training. ”
"How's it going?"
"Half dead!"
Chu Tianya couldn't help but be stunned, "Dead?" How did he die? ”
"Or fall down a dangerous peak and fall to your death, or be killed by mistake in the course of learning and training, or die from poisonous insects and beasts. There are also a few people who have improper intentions and unpredictable origins, and they were personally stabbed by me. He Bo said, "The old man will not allow anyone in danger to approach the young master. ”
"Qiu Wound was also taken away by you, how is he?" Chu Tianya asked, thinking: Listening to his words, it seems that he is aiming at Daike and Zhu'er?
"This kid has good kung fu and is extremely vigilant. The old man had always been suspicious of him, but he couldn't catch him. I deliberately designed a few dangerous situations for him, and he escaped unharmed. In terms of martial arts, witty, experience, and city, he is the most outstanding among the more than 30 people who were selected this time! He Bo shook his head with a sigh, "This kid is really getting more and more mysterious." ”
Chu Tianya said: "It is definitely not simple to make the old man feel mysterious. Moreover, Zhu'er and Wanyan Daike, who came with them, became more and more incomprehensible to me. On the surface, both women are as simple as a blank slate. But the more I got along, the less I knew about them. ”
"Then the young master still keeps them around?"
"If you don't enter the tiger's den, you will wilt the tiger."
"Hey, hey!" He Bo laughed, it was his lewd laughter, "That young master, have you ever been in the tiger's den?" ”
"......" Chu Tianya was speechless for a moment, and he couldn't laugh or cry.
"Okay, seriously." Uncle He straightened up, "The old man came today to discuss something with the young master. ”
"Please."
"Take these two girls and let me take them away!" He Bo said, "Although we still can't see the true details of them, the old man is sure that these two people are by no means ordinary people. If they are unpredictable, I will let them die on Tianshu Peak, and they will be killed; If they are not in danger, they can really be personal servants for the young master. After all, there are many things that men can't do well, but women are much more convenient. ”
Chu Tianya smiled, "Does the old man want to remove the danger around me, or do you want to train two female bodyguards for me?" ”
"It's both, and the last one is one of the two!"
Chu Tianya fell into deep thought.
"What, the young master is reluctant?"
Chu Tianya couldn't help but be slightly stunned. Although he didn't think about this issue carefully, he was broken by He Bo's quick words, and then he realized that he really had such a thought in his heart.
"A man who looks like Lord Xiao, and is gentle and virtuous, takes good care of the young master; Another natural Judah can bring men the most perfect enjoyment in the world. But any man will be reluctant to give up, which is also human nature. When Uncle He said this, he suddenly changed his words again, "But young master, you are not an ordinary person. ”
"I understand." Chu Tianya exhaled softly, "Wait a few more days, I am also observing and testing them, and Bai Xu is also using tricks." ”
"Since the young master and the white-haired boy have a calculation, then the old man will not interfere for the first time." He Bo said, "It's just that the young master must be careful and be vigilant." If you fall for what they do, it's too late to regret it! ”
"Okay, I'll be careful!"
"I'll sleep here tonight, so they can see me here tomorrow morning." He Bo said, "Tomorrow, I will bring a group of people from the Lecture Hall to the Heavenly Pivot Peak. Those who can enter the martial arts hall are all masters with some real skills. I want to pick the elite among the masters, and select a group of loyal and reliable dead soldiers from the elite, and leave them for the young master to be a personal guard! There are not many people, a dozen or so is enough! ”
"Old man, I'm really sorry for you!" Chu Tianya said with sincere gratitude.
"Do we need to talk about this between the two of us?" He Bo smiled, "I'm old, I won't live for a few years." In case I kick my legs one day, the young master can't be without care! While I can still flutter, I will do this first, and then I can go with peace of mind! ”
At dawn the next day, Chu Tianya practiced with He Bo in the courtyard.
Hong Fist, Chu Gun, all practiced it, and it didn't take long for Chu Tianya to sweat profusely. The soldiers of the garrison applauded, especially the "Chu family gun". Although Chu Tianya has not yet practiced a few grades, he is still far behind Xiao Linglong. But in the eyes of insiders, these marksmanship moves are exquisite, and they are definitely top-notch mastery.
Chu Tianya is not afraid of others stealing a trick and a half, he has never belonged to the portal of this era and wants to cherish himself. If it weren't for the old man's face, he even wanted to teach a few more people this set of marksmanship.
Qixingtang beat the drum, it was time for the daily breakfast and morning discussion.
Wanyan Daike, as usual, took the basin and made hot water to wash Chu Tianya, but was snatched away by Zhu'er.
"Little slut, you are not allowed to get close to the lord in the future!" Pearls gritted her teeth and cursed in a low voice.
Wanyan Daike took two steps back with a disgraced face, and her face turned white with fright.
"Lord, come and wash your face!" Zhu'er smiled and walked to Chu Tianya with hot water, but she didn't pay attention, the hot water came out of the basin and splashed Chu Tianya.
"Oops!" Zhu'er screamed, and Wanyan Daike hurriedly ran over, kneeling on the ground to polish Chu Tianya's shoes and clothes.
"Fuck off, it's annoying!" Zhu'er kicked at Wan Yan Daike.
Chu Tianya kicked out and stopped her foot, Zhu'er was kicked by her and screamed in pain, and Wanyan Daike was so frightened that she sat on the ground.
There are also a lot of tiger guards around, and everyone doesn't dare to watch in public, but they are all watching the excitement with their faces slanted.
Chu Tianya glanced at them, picked up the towel and threw it into the basin.
Everyone stood up straight, and the atmosphere did not dare to breathe. Anu, who had just changed shifts, knew it well, and stepped forward to reward those tiger guards one by one.
"Don't show loyalty, don't pretend to be pitiful. I know exactly what you're thinking. Chu Tianya said casually, "Listen, if you two dare to make trouble in front of me again, you will both go to Tianshu Peak." ”
The two women were suddenly nervous, and Zhu'er said cautiously: "Heavenly Pivot Peak, what are you doing?" ”
"Hey wolf!"
After that, Chu Tianya left.
Zhu'er and Wanyan Daike stood and sat on the ground one by one, both stunned for a long time and did not move.
During breakfast, Chu Tianya bumped into Bai Xu and said to him privately: "It is estimated that they have been choked enough by me, and they have little patience with me." ”
"What does the lord mean that Xiaosheng can make a move?" Bai Xu asked cautiously.
"Then you can do it yourself." Chu Tianya said, "Generally speaking, when a person suffers grievances and misunderstandings, and has resentment in his heart, what he needs most is care and help. But they are not ordinary people, and you have to figure out how to approach them. ”
"You still have to use the guise of the lord to make things happen......" Bai Xu thought thoughtfully.
Chu Tianya glared at him, "Do you want to betray me, or do you want to take advantage of me?" Or both? ”
"Well-intentioned, well-intentioned." Bai Xu laughed dryly, "So, Xiaosheng must ask the lord to forgive his sins first!" ”
Chu Tianya shook his head and smiled, "Whatever you want." Let's do it, we're running out of time...... In fact, it should be said that their time is running out! ”
"My lord, what do you mean by that?" Bai Xu was a little surprised.
"If they are only dangerous and worthless, then they will lose their lives at any time." Chu Tianya looked at him with a gleam in his eyes, "Understood? ”
Bai Xu suddenly realized, so he nodded and said, "Xiao Sheng should have thought of it a long time ago." How could the old man let go of the danger of the lord's side? - Okay, Xiaosheng will hurry up! ”
