Da Mao walked out from behind Chen An, looked at the sky curiously, and corrected: "Young Master, the current clouds are floating to the east, and it won't rain. Hearing this, Chen An turned his head to look at him, "Who did you listen to?"

Da Mao scratched his head and replied honestly: "This is what my mother taught me, the clouds go to the east, an emptiness, the clouds go west, the water is miserable, the clouds go south, the rain becomes a pool, the clouds go north, and the valley is good." Chen An pondered for a moment, but found that he didn't remember a word, in order not to be seen by Da Mao, so he coughed lightly, nodded pretending to be enlightened, and said, "Your mother is right." ”

Then turned around and walked to the room, Wang Dayong was sorting out his clothes, seeing Chen An coming, he subconsciously turned his head to avoid his eyes, and was silent for a long time before he spoke with difficulty, with a little pleading in his tone: "Chen Gongzi, about my matter, please keep it a secret for me." ”

Chen An bowed his head and readily agreed: "It's easy to say." Wang Dayong's face softened slightly, but he heard Chen An say: "But..." Wang Dayong became a little nervous, the stone in his heart hung high, and sighed that Chen An really would not let go of himself easily.

"But you have to tell me where your master came from, when she appeared, and what else she did besides planting demon patterns on your body. Chen An sat down, pinched the teacup in his hand, and said leisurely.

"Hmph, you inquired about my master's affairs, what are your intentions. Wang Dayong snorted coldly, clasped his arms with both hands, looked at Chen An vigilantly, and said coldly: "You should still die, I will not betray my master."

"Oh, that's right. Chen An stood up and walked out of the door without saying a word, Wang Dayong was suddenly a little anxious when he saw this, and he dodged and stopped at the door. Da Mao stretched out his hand to push, Wang Dayong subconsciously went to block, and found that Da Mao pushed at will, if there was the power of an elephant, he took half a step back at the moment to catch it.

"Hey, Brother Dayong, what are you doing here. Chen An's face showed surprise, Wang Dayong was speechless for a while, his face turned red, and he said: "Chen... Chen Gongzi, please stay, I..." Seeing him like this, Chen An shook his head, and said with a straight face: "Look at you, you refuse to tell us about your master, and you refuse to let us leave, what kind of behavior are you." ”

"Besides, Brother Dayong. With that, Chen An put his arm around Wang Dayong's shoulders, took him to the table and sat down, and said bitterly: "You have to figure out your position, you are a human, your master is a demon, in the eyes of the people of our Ping'an City, demons are harmful to people, eat people, and people and demons cannot get along harmoniously." ”

"But my master is different! She is kind-hearted and will never hurt others. Wang Dayong stood up suddenly, looking a little excited.

Chen An got up and calmed him down, and continued to persuade: "I know that your master is a good goblin, but if you think about it, even if your master has no intention of harming you. But once this matter is discovered by others, will others believe your words? I can tell you, when the time comes, it will not only be you, but also Uncle Wang Hu and the people of the royal family. ”

"Can you bear to drag so many people into the water because you are alone, which one is light and which is heavy, you think about it yourself. Chen An saw that his words made Wang Dayong begin to waver, so he didn't say anything more and poured himself a cup of tea, but his eyes still paid attention to the expression on Wang Dayong's face.

I saw Wang Dayong's expression uncertain, and only after a while did he sigh dejectedly and said to Chen An: "I can tell you some things about my master, but I want to know what this has to do with the consequences you said." ”

"Causes must have effects, and after you finish answering my question, you will slowly understand. Chen An said casually, in fact, he didn't know what the relationship between the two was, but it didn't matter, although Wang Dayong had a talent for martial arts, his head was not very good, as long as he said something logically confusing, he could be dizzy, so that his words could be used.

This trick has been tried and tested, and Chen An is handy to use.

Sure enough, after thinking for a moment, Wang Dayong replied, "Okay, you ask." Chen An was waiting for this sentence, but his face couldn't be too obvious, so his expression was as usual, and he asked the doubts in his heart unhurriedly.

After a long time, Wang Dayong refused Damao's farewell and left the courtyard. Da Mao put back the weapons such as the meteor hammer that fell on the outside of the courtyard, and when he walked to the room, he saw that Chen An looked silent and did not bother, so he gently placed these things.

At this time, Chen An suddenly said: "Da Mao, what if one day, there are many people I don't know who want to kill me." Da Mao put down his things, scratched his head, and with a hint of resoluteness in his puzzled eyes, he replied: "Don't worry, young master, if there is really that day, I will stand in front of you at that time, and if they want to kill you, they must first step over my corpse." ”

Chen An chuckled, put down the teacup in his hand, and said, "I'm kidding you, your young master and I are very afraid of death, and I would have run away long ago when I found out about the danger, how could such a situation occur." Da Mao smiled and gave a thumbs up, "In this regard, young master, you are this." ”

Chen An laughed, got up and walked outside the door, looked at the vast sky, and stretched, "Da Mao, Da Mao, I will go to higher and farther places in the future, what are your plans." Da Mao walked behind Chen An and said with a smile, "Where the young master goes, I will go." ”

Chen An hummed lightly, and walked down the steps with the back of his head in his hands, "Go home." Da Mao sighed, and hurriedly followed, I don't know if it was an illusion, he always felt that his young master, who got along day and night, was a little different from before, and his back was no longer as cheerful as before, but a little heavier, and grown.

A few days later, outside Ping'an City, a group of people surrounded the two teenagers, Wang's eyes were red from crying, and he couldn't stop muttering: "My An'er is still so young, I have to go to a place so far away from the imperial capital, how can I rest assured that my mother can come down." ”

Chen An looked at the narrow smile in the eyes of the onlookers, and his face suddenly couldn't hold back, and he hurriedly reassured: "Okay, okay, mother, along the way, you have said this sentence hundreds of times, and my ears are almost out of the cocoon, can you change it." ”

Hearing this, Wang twisted Chen An's ears, and said angrily: "The stinky boy hasn't left me yet, his wings are stiff, don't you, dare to talk back." Chen An hurriedly begged for mercy: "Don't dare, don't dare, even if I go to the emperor's Kyoto, I will miss my mother day and night, and I won't forget your majesty, every time I think of you, I can't help but kneel on the ground and kowtow three times, where dare my wings be hard." ”

Wang snorted out laughing and scolded: "Poor mouth." Chen An saw a smile on her face, and continued: "Besides, mother, I am not exiled, I am going to study, and I am the only designated student in Ping'an City. Others don't necessarily have this opportunity to break their heads, you should be happy, what are you crying about? ”

Wang's face showed sorrow, and he said slowly: "You have grown up by my side since you were a child, how do you know that the world is sinister, I am afraid that you will accidentally offend others in the future, and it will be dangerous if you cause a big disaster." In this regard, Chen An wanted to say, that mother, you are already worried about being late, I have already provoked a large number of people, I am not only going to study this time, but also to flee.

But this can only be thought about in my heart, and I have to make a deeply disapproving expression on my face, and comforted: "What my mother said is that the child must remember the teachings of his mother, admit his mistakes in advance, scatter his wealth to save his life, and run away when the road is uneven." ”

Wang nodded with satisfaction when he heard this, "Well, just remember, this is the life-saving method summed up by my mother, and you must be right to do this." "Summary?" Chen An discovered the abnormality and asked, "Mother, where did you get your experience?" Then there was a sudden realization on his face, and he said: "Oh, I know, mother, did you use to be the kind of female chivalrous warrior in the rivers and lakes, who roamed the rivers and lakes and acted chivalrous and righteous." ”

"Don't guess, my mother listens to what others say. Wang shook his head and denied it, but Chen An didn't believe it, and kept asking, at first Wang answered patiently, and finally was annoyed by the question, so he simply stopped, stood in place and waved his hand: "Okay, my mother won't send you, you have to go by yourself in the future, and your mother will go back first." ”

After speaking, Wang turned around and left, without dragging the mud and water at all, and was reluctant to judge the two of them before. Chen An was suddenly subjected to a great change, a little dumbfounded, stunned in place, and only after a while did he shake his head helplessly and get into the carriage. Da Mao, who was sitting in front of the carriage as a coachman, said curiously: "Young master, why didn't the master and the eldest young master come." ”

Chen An half-squatted on the carriage, looked at the convoy coming and going, and said slowly: "My father has a cold face and a warm heart, and I don't know where to look at me at this time and wipe my tears silently." Speaking of this, he paused, lifted the curtain and walked into the carriage, and a playful voice came from inside, "As for my brother, he doesn't dare to appear easily recently, otherwise it will be bad for his father and mother to find out his secret." ”

"Secrets? Da Mao scratched his head, puzzled. In his impression, Chen Ping, the eldest and youngest of the Chen family, not only showed amazing talent in business, but also learned poetry and songs, knives, guns and sticks very quickly, but for some reason, he chose to do business when he had a great possibility of gaining fame, although there was Master Chen's consideration, a large part of it was Chen Ping's wishes.

"Oh, my brother's secret, that's a big deal. Chen An said leisurely, "It's as big as his ability." The first sentence made Da Mao half-understood, and the latter sentence made him even more dazed.

At the moment, he was itching, but he didn't dare to show too much curiosity about his master's secret, so he had to say helplessly: "Young master, don't tease Da Mao, otherwise I will think about this matter all the way." ”

"Haha. Chen An laughed, then lifted the curtain, revealing a face and a hand, which pointed to the surrounding convoys, and said softly: "If you find that these convoys around us are getting fewer and fewer on the road in the future, and even in the end, you can't see them, that's my brother's ability." ”

Da Mao's face changed when he heard this, and he snorted, then grabbed the reins and hurried without saying a word, but his whole body tensed.

And above the two, a man stood above the clouds and overlooked the convoy below, his eyes were cold, and a woman walked behind him, snorting coldly: "You said you, you didn't show up when you sent it, what are you hiding here now." ”

The man smiled: "Some people are too enthusiastic, I have to come and see whose family it is, so I can return the gift in the future." Wang looked down and said nothing.

After the convoy traveled dozens of miles, a convoy that was driving in front of Chen An's carriage seemed to have a problem, and several carriages overturned in the middle of the road, just blocking the road in front of the carriage.

"Da Mao, why did you stop suddenly. Chen An sensed something unusual and asked. Da Mao turned around and said, "Young Master, it was the carriage of the convoy in front of you that overturned." ”

Chen An hummed lightly and said no more. At this time, someone from the convoy in front of him came over and said to Da Mao: "This little brother, our carriage has overturned, you look strong and strong, can you come down and help us." ”

Da Mao wanted to refuse, but at this time, Chen An's voice sounded behind the car curtain, "Da Mao, go and help." A flash of joy flashed in the man's eyes, and when Da Mao heard this, he nodded and agreed, and got out of the carriage. As soon as he walked in front of the overturned carriage, a group of people around him instantly surrounded him, and without saying a word, he took out a knife from the surrounding carriage and slashed at Damao.

Da Mao had already expected that he would be at ease in the siege of a large number of people, and at this time, several people touched Chen An's carriage. Seeing this, Da Mao quickly turned back to repel everyone, and the group of people surrounded him again, although all of them were good at the rivers and lakes, but they couldn't help Da Mao.

In the midst of the scuffle, a cold light struck Da Mao's back precisely at an extremely tricky angle. When the cold light crossed the curtain, Chen Anxin, who was originally calm in the carriage, jumped wildly, and a very dangerous premonition struck, he was shocked in his heart, and shouted in his mouth: "Be careful!", and then made a move, but at this time it was no longer in time, so he had to watch the cold light approaching Damao's back.

Above, Wang's eyes were fixed, and when he was about to make a move, he was stopped by Chen Qiusheng, Wang looked at him puzzled, Chen Qiusheng pointed down, and said, "Look." ”

Wang looked in the direction of Chen Qiusheng's finger, and saw that among the crowd, an ordinary man appeared.
