Valentino had to say more, and the woman in black, who seemed unwilling to linger with him any longer, jumped off her horse, went to the corpse of the slain bandit, and pulled out the arrow that had been stuck in the corpse.

Valentino watched her movements curiously, he had already noticed that the woman in black did not have a crossbow on her, and he did not understand how she used to shoot these arrows.

Several of the bandits who were shot and killed by Valentino had no arrows on them, and the woman in black couldn't help but frown after examining the wounds of the corpses.

She got up and walked over to Valentino, looked at Valentino, and reached for the empty revolver that Valentino had dropped.

"You foreigners' things are always so ruthless!" She looked at the revolver in her hand, and a hint of resentment flashed in her eyes.

"As a weapon, of course, you have to be ruthless." Valentino laughed, "If it weren't for this gun, I might have gone to heaven by now and wouldn't be standing in front of you and talking to you." ”

The woman in black snorted, threw the pistol into his arms, and rolled over on her horse.

"Wait a minute!" The young preacher called out to her.

The young missionary brought a silver flask to him and bowed deeply.

The woman in black opened the lid of the flask and sniffed it, her eyebrows raised, "Thank you." She hung the jug on the horse, galloped away, and soon disappeared into the darkness.

"This is the most powerful Qianguo woman I've ever seen." Valentino said to himself as he watched her figure disappear. "She didn't even bind her feet......"

"Women like her who do not bind their feet are very common in the northern region of Qianguo, and the women of the royal family and Tatar nobles of Qianguo do not bind their feet." The uncle of the uncle and nephew of the missionary replied.

"Then you mean that she could be a royal or Tatar noblewoman?" Valentino raised an eyebrow. Said a little disapprovingly.

"Maybe!" The uncle missionary replied, "Ordinary female bandits, who are as ferocious as men, have not behaved so politely as she did." ”

Valentino shook his head, grinning in the direction in which the woman in black had disappeared.

"I'll see you again when I have a chance! Dear Miss! ”

The missionaries at this time would not have thought that they would be from this moment on. has formed an indissoluble bond with the woman in black just now, and their fate has also changed dramatically.

Tongzhou City. Heavy snow covered the sky.

The night market has long since dispersed, and the juggling troupe gathers in the hall of the inn, and people look at the rabbit skewers on the fire, and their eyes are shining.

"Ouch. My belly. It was very painful, and I hadn't eaten much for several days. As he spoke, Xiao Tsing Yi reached out to grab the skewers, and was slapped back by a big furry hand halfway.

"You foodie, his grandmother only saw you hiding in the wood house at noon to gnaw on pig's feet, and this time I had a stomachache. Lao Tzu doesn't call himself hungry when he carries a box and pulls a cart, you call a bird and stay there. "A big man's voice was like thunder, and his tone changed just after speaking. It's so gentle that it can drip water: "Qiuhong, eat a little." Don't be lovesick. The kid surnamed Guo has applauded you from the sky since our Jinhua class came to Tongzhou, and he hasn't seen a shadow. Why bother? ”

Qiu Hong pillowed her chin, and glared at the big man fiercely with her two eyes: "Guo Gongzi is a nobleman, I think everyone looks like you, so I will flip through some books like "The Secret of the Boudoir" when I am idle, and the book covers are all rotten." ”

"I, I, I...... How can anyone have it? "The bear's face of the big man turned red.

"Why not? I saw you in the back pocket of your ass last night. ”

"This, this ......" The big man's neck was buried under his knees at once.

"Huh." The man drinking next to him raised his head, with a few wrinkles at the end of his eyes, but his eyes were still bright: "A few of you, it's really a thing to a thing." ”

"Liu Gongzi, look at what you said." Qiu Hong's bird-like mouth opened and was not finished, and she chirped for a long time before being interrupted by a visitor outside the inn.

It was a red-clothed maid, with frost on her pretty face, and she didn't come in when she got to the door, she glanced at the noisy crowd in the room, and asked angrily: "Who is Liu Zizhi and Liu Gongzi of Baiyun Inn?" ”

As soon as the juggling class owner looked up, another man in white strode in. The man was tall, and there was a slight sorrow in his eyebrows: "Excuse me, which one is Liu Zizhi and Liu Gongzi." ”

Two delicate letters were placed on the table, and Liu Zizhi, the son of the innkeeper, did not say a word. After a long time, he got up and brushed his sleeves: "Mei Niang in the Luyun Building asked me to drink night tea, so I'll leave." His sleeve was suddenly grabbed, this time it wasn't the big man, Qiuhong chick pecked rice and muttered: "Liu Gongzi, why is Mei Niang looking for you to drink tea, why don't you look for me?" ”

Liu Zizhi spread his hands, "I'll ask her when I go back." ”

"Okay, Gongzi Liu, even you learned to play hooligan with Lao Wang!"

Liu Zizhi knew the little girl's temper, so she didn't tease her, she was quiet, and was about to speak, but suddenly heard a knock on the door.

"In the middle of the night, who is visiting?" Boss Jin in the juggling class was also taken aback.

Liu Zizhi waved his hand to everyone, signaled everyone to silence, and then crossed the courtyard by himself and opened the gate. Under the bright starlight, a woman stood in front of the door. The woman was emaciated, wrapped in a huge black robe, revealing only a white and blue face. Perhaps it was the only beautiful woman he had ever seen in his life, and those clear eyes made it easy for people to have delusions. He didn't know anything about her, but he didn't expect that she would come to visit alone in the middle of the night.

When she looked up, her face was a little painful, she glanced at him, and said softly with a half-breath: "Liu Gongzi, I bothered you late at night, and I ask for forgiveness." ”

Although he only had a one-sided relationship with this woman, after listening to her words, he still couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart, and said in a loud voice: "Girl, please, please." ”

"Nope." She shook her head slightly, and began to gasp after a sentence: "I've encountered some things recently, and I've been using them quite tightly...... I don't know if Liu Gongzi has any money to spare, and he will settle the rent for a few months. ”

"Yes, yes." Liu Zizhi saw that her face was pale, so he said, "It's windy at night." Let's go inside and wait. After warming up some wine in the evening, it is important to warm up your body by fire. ”

She hesitated for a moment, and was about to say yes. A voice suddenly sounded: "Zizhi, which friend is visiting?" Nor will they introduce me to an introduction. ”

It was Liu Zizhi's friend Zhuo Muyan who spoke, Zhuo Muyan was very dissolute, and when he saw that the woman was beautiful, he was already itching, and after waiting for a while, he was a little idle.

The woman's face changed suddenly. When he arrived, he changed his words: "I won't go in, the matter is urgent, and I will be faster if I have Lao Liu." ”

"I can't talk about it. Miss Zhu waits. After Liu Ziying finished speaking, he looked at her uneasily, and then went into the back room to withdraw the money. When he arrived in the hall, Zhuo Muyan squeezed his eyebrows at him, but he didn't speak. He really didn't have the time to explain to him at this time. I hurriedly took a silver dollar bag to make a pack. After thinking for a moment, he added another piece of silver, and walked quickly to the courtyard gate.

The woman was gone, and the night wind was blowing chills. When Liu Zizhi looked down, she realized that she had passed out at the foot of the steps, and her lips were frighteningly white. The matter was urgent, and he didn't care about the difference between men and women, so he hurriedly strung the silver bag around his arm. Picked her up sideways and rushed into the hall. Zhuo Muyan was startled, and applauded him with a wicked smile. Halfway through the clapping of his hands, he realized that the person he was holding had passed out. Liu Zizhi gently put the woman on the couch and stretched out his hand to probe her snort, but he was so frightened that he trembled, and the breath was as faint as a gossamer.

"Brother Mu Yan, how is this good?" Liu Zizhi was so anxious that he looked back at Zhuo Muyan. The situation of this woman surnamed Zhu is not as simple as suffering from the cold, and she must ask a doctor to take a look. But now is the time of the night, unless Zhuo Muyan has a way, let alone invite a doctor, he can't even see the door of the medical hall.

Zhuo Muyan froze in place, and after a while, the wine on his face receded, he pondered for a moment, and asked, "Zizhi, what is your relationship with this woman?" ”

She ...... It was my homeowner. ”

"What a woman with seven tricks, she actually calculated it in advance, and asked a stranger like you who didn't know the roots to be a tenant." Zhuo Muyan snorted coldly.

He actually knew this woman, and Liu Zizhi was even more surprised: "Brother Zhuo, could it be that she is a traitor?" ”

"Not really. Speaking of which...... Zhuo Muyan nodded and said, "This is a strange woman." He followed up: "Zizhi, will you listen to me?" ”

"What are these words? You name it. ”

"Sending her out early will save her from a catastrophe."

"How's that going to work!" blurted out these four words, and Liu Zizhi felt a little hasty: "Who is she?" Can you tell us below? ”

Zhuo Muyan shook his head and said: "The less she knows, the less she will do, the less harm she will have." In a word...... This is not a good girl. ”

After his words were finished, Liu Zizhi suddenly realized. No wonder when I saw her last time, although I didn't apply fat powder, my smile was still breathtaking: "Yes...... The woman in the green house? ”

Zhuo Muyan shook his head and said, "It seems that you are not stupid, but what you said is not right, I advise you to send it out early." ”

Liu Zizhi hesitated, but when he looked back at her, the little Zhu girl seemed to have a nightmare, her brows were tightly raised, and the line in the center of her eyebrows was like a sharp knife cutting at his heart. Recalling the difficulties when she first came to Tongzhou, this woman generously rented the yard to him, and did not need to be pledged, no matter what the purpose, she always helped him. The ancients often said that when you receive the grace of a drop of water, you should repay it with a spring. He asked himself, but he really couldn't make the decision to abandon it: "How can I be ruthless in her current situation?" Brother Mu Yan, Miss Xiao Zhu once gave Liu a favor, please save her for my sake. ”

Zhuo Muyan let go of his solemnity: "I knew that you were an amorous seed, wait for me." He shook his body, floated to the outside of the courtyard like a light smoke, leaned against the door and looked out for a while, then hurriedly closed the courtyard door, walked back to the central hall and said: "I traveled outside in my early years, and I know a little tricks. Let me take a look. He found a pillow to put under Miss Zhu's neck, held her pulse for a long time, sighed softly, and lifted Miss Zhu's cloak by himself. Liu Zizhi was about to scold him for his frivolous behavior, but he saw a bandage around Miss Xiaozhu's arm, and black blood stains leaked out of the cloth, which had not yet dried.

Zhuo Muyan took off the bandage and looked at it, waved his hand and said, "It's hopeless." ”

Liu Zizhi was shocked and grabbed his hand to death.

"Ouch, you're trying to pinch me to death, right?" Zhuo Muyan screamed in a woman's tone, and Liu Zizhi knew that the other party was tricking him, and a feeling that he had never had before was born out of thin air.

"The wound is poisonous, you see. The blood was still black. However, the new blood has returned to its original color, and it seems that she had pulled out the poison herself. Otherwise, it would be difficult for the gods to save her life. ”

"Then ......," Liu Zizhi asked anxiously. But they didn't know what to say.

"It's not your daughter-in-law, so concerned? Is the infatuation to this point? Zhuo Muyan didn't mean to laugh, Liu Zizhi saw that he looked down on himself a little. Now, I can't care about it so much, Liu Zizhi said with a straight face: "Brother Mu Yan, if you lie here today, I will be the same." Whatever you think. Please give us a way to help the emergency. ”

"Zizhi, ah......" Zhuo Muyan stopped talking and explained the method of treatment.

According to the method said by Zhuo Muyan, Liu Zizhi took a basin of hot water. washed away the blood stains from the wounds of Miss Xiaozhu; I applied the wound medicine left by Zhuo Muyan before leaving, and changed into a clean bandage, it was already the middle of the night. Zhuo Muyan left in a hurry after explaining the method of treating his injuries, and told him before leaving. Wait for her injuries to heal. Send it away immediately. Liu Zizhi was speechless and said a few perfunctory words. Looking at the bright moonlight in the sky, that inexplicable feeling rose in my heart again. Who is Miss Zhu? There seemed to be an indescribable connection between her and him. On this snowy night in Tongzhou, Liu Zizhi fell into deep thought.

I don't know how long it took, Miss Zhu woke up and saw Liu Zizhi sitting next to her, and couldn't help but blush.

"How long did I sleep?" Miss Zhu asked.

"Less than ...... Two hours. Liu Zizhi looked at his pocket watch and replied.

Miss Zhu noticed that her wound had been redressed. A look of gratitude flashed in his eyes, "Thank you Liu Gongzi for saving me." ”

"Where did the girl come from? Without the help of the girl back then, where could Liu be where he is today. Liu Zizhi waved his hand again and again.

"Anyway, I have to thank you this time." Miss Zhu sighed, looked at her injuries, and her eyes flashed with resentment.

"With a gesture, don't be polite, girl." Liu Zizhi noticed the change in her complexion, hesitated, and asked, "Dare to ask...... Why was the girl hurt? ”

"It's nothing...... Miss Zhu waved her hand a little annoyedly, signaling him not to ask.

Of course, she couldn't have told him what kind of terrible enemy she had fought against.

No wonder that person was able to calmly get out of the net of the Russians and the Japanese, it turned out that there was such a group of powerful characters under his command!

She couldn't imagine that the Dongying dwarves, who had always been looked down upon by the members of their Heaven and Earth Society, would have such powerful killers!

I just secretly inquired about Lin Yiqing's news, and I would catch fire and be bitten by someone!

I fought with my opponent twice, not only did I lose the upper hand, but I also fell into the opponent's quenching weapon!

If it weren't for the coincidence that she came to the Baiyun Inn she had funded back then, she would probably freeze to death in this icy night!

I happened to kill those bandits just now (she originally thought that she was here to intercept and kill herself, but she wasn't), because of the intense exercise, the residual poison in her body attacked, so that she couldn't hold on as soon as she arrived at the door of the inn.

She didn't expect that the enemy's poison would be so powerful, although she treated the wound, but the residual poison in her body still made her unconscious, if it weren't for the fact that there happened to be a person in this inn who knew how to heal, and helped her go to the residual poison, she was afraid that she would not be able to wake up now!

"The dog thief surnamed Lin, you are so vicious!" She couldn't help but curse.

"A dog thief surnamed Lin?" Liu Zizhi was stunned when he heard this.

"It's none of your business." Zhu Xueyan got up, took the wallet and her own things, and was about to go out.

What she is most worried about now is that those Dongying killers have chased here, affecting Liu Zizhi and the people here.

"Girl, it's cold and snowy outside, can you go on the road at this time?" Liu Zizhi persuaded, "It's better to rest here for the night, and I'll call a carriage for the girl tomorrow morning, what does the girl think?" ”

"Don't bother, I'll leave now." Zhu Xueyan shook her head resolutely and said to Liu Zizhi, "Liu Gongzi, you remember, after I left, no matter who asked, you said that you hadn't seen me, just as if today's incident had never happened, understand?" ”

"I understand, girl, don't worry." Liu Zizhi is a smart person, he thought of Zhuo Muyan's warning just now, and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

"Don't leave it at that." Zhu Xueyan saluted Liu Zizhi with a fist, turned around and walked out quickly, disappearing into the vast snowy night.

Tianjin, railway station hostel.

"Haruko is the first time I've seen snow, isn't it?" Lin Yiqing looked at the snowflakes fluttering outside the window, looked at Haruko Eto who was staring at the sky with wide eyes, and asked with a smile.

"Yes. This is the first time I have seen such a large amount of snow. Haruko Eto nodded, "When I went to France with my father, I saw snow once, but it wasn't as big as this. ”

"I don't know if it will snow in Hokkaido at this time." Lin Yiqing thought of Minamino Eisuke and other strange soldiers and ninjas who had already gone to Hokkaido, and couldn't help but sigh, "If it snows there, I'm afraid it's not smaller than here, and Yingzhu them, I'm afraid they'll be tortured." ”

"With such a heavy snowfall, the Lucian invaders there will definitely not be comfortable." Haruko Eto said, "Minamino-kun and they will definitely win!" ”

"It's a pity that I'm too far away now to help them......" Lin Yiqing sighed as he recalled the days and nights when he fought with them.

"As long as you take good care, it will be the greatest help to Nanye-kun." Haruko Eto turned her head to look at Lin Yiqing and replied with a wink.

"Why did Haruko say that?" Lin Yiqing understood what Little Lori meant, but asked deliberately.

"For you, Qianguo is not only a mother country, but also another battlefield." A hint of melancholy flashed in Haruko Eto's clear eyes, "A battlefield ...... more terrible than Japan" (to be continued......

PS: In the morning, my wife leaned on me and coquettishly: "Tomorrow is Children's Day, husband, I want to buy a LV bag." "Buy, buy, buy!" "I also want Dior perfume." "Buy, buy, buy!" I didn't expect this to be seen by my son, and after my wife went to the kitchen, I saw him hesitantly lying up: "If you can, husband, I want to buy an Ultraman!" ”
