At noon, I was tired, and smelled the smell of meat and wine wafting from a restaurant on the corner of the inner city, so the two walked upstairs, sat down by the window, and ordered a delicious meal. Halfway through the meal, I saw a group of people coming from the corner of the street, as if they were also coming to this restaurant to eat, Yan Xiaoxiao recognized these people, straightened her head and shouted: "Auntie, aunt! I'm here!"

When he shouted, he raised an oversized hammer and swung it downward, making the guests at the next table dumbfounded.

When the gang went upstairs, there were more than ten people in total, and Yin Li only knew Yan Zimei.

This swallow Mei and Yin Ming are not only classmates, but also a pair of mandarin ducks.

Back then, they fell in love, and they didn't know how many others they envied, but it was a pity that Yan Guogong regarded Yin as a lowly person, beat the mandarin ducks, and never agreed to the marriage of the two of them. Yan Guogong's move ruined Yan Zimei's life, so much so that she has not married yet. After Yin Ming's disappearance, she would visit the Nanyang Marquis Mansion every two or three years to inquire about Yin Ming's whereabouts, so Yin Li got to know her.

When the gang went to the box around the corner, Yan Zimei walked over and smiled at Yin Li.

She looks good-looking, time doesn't seem to have abused her beauty, just like when Yin Li first saw her, but there is a dark sadness between her eyebrows, as if the world is extremely bitter, and she smiles at the corners of her mouth, and she can't help but laugh so hard that it hurts.

Yin Li has always liked her gentle temperament, and when she thinks about it, she feels kind.

When they met at this time, they got up and shouted respectfully: "Aunt Zimei." ”

Yan Zimei said softly: "I haven't seen you for two years, you have grown taller, and you have grown up, I heard that you arrived in the imperial capital, that day I specially asked Xiaoxiao to go over to see you, let her bring you over, but unfortunately you refused, I originally planned to go over to see you by myself, but I haven't been free, I don't know if you can eat and live?"

Yin Li arched his hand and said, "I'm fine, Aunt Zimei doesn't have to worry about me." ”

Yan Zimei smiled: "Your father and mother are not around, of course I have to worry about you." ”

Before the opening remarks of the two were finished, Yan Xiaoxiao touched her pocket and sighed: "My money seems to have run out, why did it run out?" Auntie, fortunately you came, otherwise I would have no money to settle the bill." ”

Yin Li said with a dry smile: "Don't be afraid, I have money." ”

"If you have money, save it, and there will be a lot of places to spend money in the future. Yan Zimei pressed his shoulder, ordered him to sit down, and then poked Yan Xiaoxiao's forehead with her finger: "You are not small, why don't you have a long memory, if you don't bring money when you go out next time, no one will help you settle the bill." Okay, you guys eat, I'll go over there and talk about something, and I'll settle the bill later. By the way, when you are full, just sit here and wait for me, none of you should be in a hurry to leave, when I am done with this business, I still have something to say to Yin Li. ”

......

Yan Zimei went to the box and never returned.

Yin Li and Yan Xiao were full of snacks and sat and waited.

The guests in the restaurant changed batch after batch, Yan Xiaoxiao waited impatiently, and wanted to go to the box to knock on the door several times, but was stopped by Yin Li. The two were curious, and went to listen through the door, but they couldn't hear the sound of talking in the room, and they felt that what they were talking about inside was afraid that it was not a trivial matter, so Yin Li didn't dare to disturb, so he had to wait patiently. After waiting for more than an hour, the door of the box opened, and the mysterious people walked out one by one.

They looked as if they were in a deep predicament, and their faces were solemn.

One of them, a boy in a tight black shirt, threw a glance at Yin Li.

When the boy turned his back and went downstairs, he suddenly remembered through his back, and blurted out angrily: "Wei Shixiao!" This shout, everyone stopped and turned around, looking at him, only Wei Shixiao turned a deaf ear and walked down the stairs unhurriedly.

The enemy is very red when he meets, and no matter how good Yin Li's temper is, he has to be angry.

He wanted to jump out of the window to intercept Wei Shixiao, but let Yan Zimei stop him.

Yin Li said angrily: "What are you stopping me from doing, he ......!"

Yan Zi sighed, turned his head to look back, and saw that the people who came to the restaurant together had all gone downstairs, and then said softly: "I probably know what you have to say, Wei Guogong sent a master to pretend to be a bandit in the Forgotten Forest to kill people, this matter I Yan Guo has slightly analyzed, presumably you have encountered an ambush on the way through the Forgotten Forest, fortunately, you are fine, then it will be fine." As for Wei Shixiao, put aside his hatred for the time being, this is Taichang, and the public can't come nonsense. ”

Yan Xiaoxiao moved her eyes: "Brother Yin Li, did he really ambush you?"

Yin Li nodded, gritted his teeth and said, "Aunt Zimei is right, I will bear it." ”

Yan Zimei touched Yin Li's face, her eyes were confused, and she sighed lightly: "Let's go." ”

......

The three of them went downstairs to settle the bill, and when they got out of the restaurant, Yan Zimei led Yin Li to a sparsely populated place on the street corner.

Seeing that there was no one left and right, she asked Yin Li to go back and pack her bags and move to the inner city to live with her.

Yan Xiaoxiao clapped her hands next to her, anxious to follow Yin Li back to Longmen Street to move. However, Yin Li was reluctant, he had no friends since he was a child, and this time he made friends with Song Dazhong and his party, and he still had the feeling of a long drought and a rainy day, and he was addicted, so he said that there were friends in Longmen Street, and he wanted to live with them and be happier.

Yan Zimei smiled: "You made friends when you first came, which is very similar to your father." ”

Yin Li said with a smile: "I don't think so, none of the friends I have made are like yours." ”

Yan Zimei listened to this, her lips opened slightly, and she smiled happily: "Praise me, don't you say it's like it, your mouth is carved out of the same mold as your father, and you can say something nice." After speaking, he smiled and thought about it, and said: "Since you have friends, then ask them to move over together, hey, you saved them, and they may be grateful to you in the future." ”

Yin Li heard that there was a hidden danger in his heart: "Aunt Zimei, ...... you say this?"

Yan Zimei stopped, looked left and right, made sure that there was no one around, and then sent Yan Xiaoxiao to buy snacks, only then did she lower her voice and said: "This is not the place to talk, I will make a long story short, in the morning we received news that there will be assassins sneaking into Longmen Street tonight, and students from all over the world are probably among the assassins, and now Longmen Street can be said to be in danger, you and your friends must not stay for a long time, otherwise we are afraid that it will invite disaster." ”

Yin Li was stunned and said, "Thorn ...... Assassin?...... Is this true?"

Yan Zimei said: "It's not clear, it should be eight or nine and ten." ”

Yin Li had a flash of inspiration and said, "Could this assassin have anything to do with the Wei State?"

Yan Zimei shook her head, cut gold and said: "It's not the Wei State, in fact, the students of the Wei State are also among the assassins, and it is not a matter of a year or two for these assassins to assassinate students from various countries who go to the examination. This began fifteen years ago, when at first some of the students drowned, or died violently on the streets, or died suddenly, with no sign of murder in sight, and there were not many victims, so the countries did not pay attention to it, but it was not until three years ago that more than 500 people were slaughtered in one night on Longmen Street. As soon as this incident came out, everyone suddenly realized that now I, Yan, Wei, Zhao, and Qi, all have envoys stationed in Taichang, and secretly established the Blood Alliance to deal with these assassins. ”

Yin Li couldn't help but gasp when he heard this: "Taichang is really not a good place. ”

Yan Zimei sighed lightly: "Hey, who said it wasn't, there was an undercurrent surging, and there were all kinds of forces." Yin Li, this year is the year of the Guozijian Examination, no matter whether the news we receive is true or not, these assassins will take action, you can't live in Longmen Street anymore, you know. ”

After listening to the cause and effect of the incident, Yin Li was sincerely grateful to Yan Zimei.

He asked, "What about the other students on Longmen Street? Won't they move?"

Yan Zimei hooked her head and groaned, and said for a moment: "The assassins are in the dark, and the students are in the light, not to mention that the goal of more than a thousand people is too big, even if they move, they can move anywhere, and they don't all have to live in Taichang City, as long as they still live in Taichang, this group of assassins will have to assassinate them." Yin Li, this matter is confidential, don't show a trace of rumors, so as not to make people panic when you get it, but it is not good, in short, this time we will not let the assassins mess around, we must seize this opportunity to find out the source and exterminate this group of assassins. ”

Yin Li nodded slightly: "Don't worry, I won't say anything about this." ”

Yan Zimei waved her hand and said, "It's not too early, let's go quickly." ”

Indeed, the sun was in the west, and in another hour, it would be dark, and Yin Li did not delay, but bowed his hand and went. Yan Xiaoxiao came back from buying snacks, and when she saw Yin Li going far away, she stepped up her steps to follow, so that Yan Zimei could stop her. Yan Zimei said: "He went to pack his luggage, didn't you go to make trouble." Go, follow me back to the inn, you will stay in your room tonight, and you will not go anywhere. ”
