Chapter 61: Encounter
Jiangning Ye Mansion
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;In winter, even in Jiangnan, it is extremely cold. Although 35xs does not go to the trees to hang frost and freeze in the river, people standing in the yard also need three layers of wrapping inside and three layers outside. It is also the case that people who practice martial arts are resistant to freezing, practice knife techniques to move their muscles and bones, and sweat is like rain.
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;Ye Tianxiang has always given people the impression that he is a weak scholar. But in fact, he is not weak at all.
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;In the small courtyard of the Quartet, the long braid is wrapped around the neck, the upper body is **, the foot is stepping on the seven-star footwork, holding a long knife, the long knife is agitated, and the wind is dancing willows. Although there is no silk bamboo accompaniment, I feel that every step he takes and every swing seems to be stepping on the point, with a rhyme.
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;He danced happily, and the little parrot that had been hanging under the porch all night had frozen to death.
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;The maids and servants of a courtyard all stood around the courtyard, silent. Occasionally, the younger ones saw the parrot frozen to death on the porch and wanted to take it off, but they were gently dragged by the older ones.
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;"Childe." ”
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;Seeing Ye Tianxiang stop practicing, the little servant hurriedly stepped forward and handed over a long scarf soaked in hot water and a coat that had been prepared a long time ago. If you sweat and are more susceptible to cold, it is still necessary to wear a coat.
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;Wiping the sweat off his face, leaning back in his chair, his long narrow eyes swept through the courtyard, and chuckled: "What? Don't want to go? ”
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;"Childe! ”
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;The little guy who handed the towel just now suddenly knelt down, and the son's call was sincere, and I didn't know that I thought it was the image of a loyal servant. 35xs, but his trembling legs and fingers clinging to the floor accentuated more fear.
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;His forehead was close to the ground, and he couldn't even care about the coldness of his bones. As long as Childe drove them away, there was only one way, and that was to be sent to the salt works. All of them are relatives who escaped from the case of the third prince Zhu at the beginning, without the protection of the prince, the imperial court will kill them, and the White Lotus Sect will only send them to the salt field to do some work to boil salt, boiling salt, it will kill people
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;"But if you stay here, you're going to die." Ye Tianxiang picked up the teacup.
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;"Those peddlers and pawns outside should all be from the Cao Gang now, right?" You have nothing to do when you go out, but I can't go out of this courtyard. What does this mean? The helper, you've found a new master! Hehe. ”
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;There was a smile in his words, but there was a cold look in his eyes. The White Lotus Sect of those people, is it wise to protect themselves? They couldn't bear the desire of the one in the capital, so they wanted to throw him out as an outcast.
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;Only he Ye Tianxiang abandoned others in this world, and no one has ever been able to abandon him
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;"Let's go, stay here, I'm annoyed." I'm bored, and you'll be like that parrot. ”
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;As soon as the words fell, the lid of the teacup flew out, knocked down the cage containing the parrot, fell to the ground, and rolled down the steps.
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;Everyone looked at the parrot at the bottom of the stairs, their faces dead
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;Ye Tianxiang, who returned to the house, closed the door and pressed the mechanism on the lower side of the bookcase, and the bookshelf behind him was naturally separated into two columns. Flash Dance. When he walked in, he closed automatically. From the outside, there is no flaw.
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;The servants in the courtyard were packing their bags and scattering and fleeing, hoping to escape quickly and not be carried back by the White Lotus Sect. This scattering just made no one pay attention to Ye Tianxiang's disappearance.
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;Xu Yougui has been living in Jiangning since he returned from the capital. To be honest, some time ago, Japan didn't have to go to the capital, and the fourth master didn't want to see them who had a good relationship with Qian Xiaoqian and the fourteenth master. He told Ke Shaolong that it was the duty of the guards to follow Ke Shaolong. In fact, he wanted to take a closer look at his teacher. deliberately ran to the outer house of the Thirteenth Master's Mansion, and when he saw the seal on the door, he realized that the Thirteenth Master had been imprisoned.
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;After staring blankly at the courtyard door for a while, he smiled wryly and turned to leave.
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;Standing on the bridge of Jiangning, you can see the tourists weaving and the shops are lined up. On this bridge, it is different from Xiao Suo when he came with Ziyan that day. Without the pressure of food, only a slight improvement in life can rekindle the motivation of the simple and kind people of Jiangnan. The people are the easiest to appease, they want very little, as long as they can live.
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;On one side of the bridge stands a one-man tall stone monument. It is as smooth as a whiteboard, and not a word is engraved. That was when Ziyan was buried, Xu Yougui stood here. The person in charge of carving once asked him what he wanted to carve on this slate, and he thought about it, but shook his head.
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;Nothing has to be engraved. His own memories can be reminisced on his own. As for Ziyan's obsession with Ye Tianxiang, he didn't want to record it at all.
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;But sometimes, it's just a coincidence.
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;The connection point of the secret passage in the house is the shop on the side of Ye Tianxiang's street. Even if you guess that he escaped through the secret passage, you would never guess that he would go to the side of the most crowded street.
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;So Xu Yougui, who happened to come down from the bridge, took a look.
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;Next to the stele, the two looked at each other.
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;"Come and see Ziyan? I originally thought it was a tense scene, but when Ye Tianxiang blurted out this sentence, it was more like an acquaintance meeting and asking some parents about their shortcomings.
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;Xu Yougui nodded. The hand brushes against the stone tablet, and the eyes jump with the fingertips.
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;" I will get what I want soon, so I naturally want to come and talk to her. Make her happy. ”
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;"Huh! Are you so confident? I don't think you're alone. What can I do if I meet here? It's not just that I can be let go. Ye Tianxiang said. It is not so much that Xu Yougui is confident, it is better to say that he Ye Tianxiang is confident.
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;"I can't beat you." Xu Yougui nodded honestly, "From the fact that you saw through the assassination that night, I know that you are not as weak as you seem." is another cunning rabbit and three holes, and the spies who want to come to the house can't stop staring at you. ”
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;"Oh? So how do you know to stay here? As he spoke, Ye Tianxiang tightened his muscles and glanced around. His sensitive nerves still showed no warning.
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;"Ziyan once told me a story. The story mentions that the first time she saw you was here, which is about where we are now. She stole your jade pendant. A pendant of a chicken heart's blood stone. I thought, try your luck. Maybe Ziyan's spirit in heaven can bless me. Just like then and now. The first and last sides are clear, and this fate is also settled. ”
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;If Xu Yougui had to use metaphysics to explain, Ye Tianxiang would have nothing to refute. The fact is that he bumped into him by accident, and the reason is not so important.
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;Ye Tianxiang knew that Xu Yougui's skills alone couldn't keep him. In this case, there is no need to talk nonsense with him and delay the effort. was about to leave, but was blocked by a sudden figure.
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;There is a fishy smell on the body.
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;Take off your hat and smile, revealing a mouthful of white teeth that shine in the sun.
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;"Ke Shaolong. "No wonder I didn't pay attention just now, who would have guessed that the leader of the Cao Gang would be a fisherman dressed as a fisherman and squatting on the side to sell fish, pretending to be very like. If he hadn't appeared by himself now, Ye Tianxiang would never have such doubts.
&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;Behind him, Xu Yougui said: "This time, you can't leave." ”
