It was obviously the night of curfew, but the Lu Mansion was brightly lit at the moment, and Yu Niang was pacing back and forth outside the mansion gate, looking at the end of the street under the hazy moon shadow from time to time. The already wrinkled forehead is only frowning at the moment, and half of the tiny furrows are forced to appear. Others were already looking for them all over the street with yarn lanterns

I searched for it, but there was still no trace.

Ling Xiao saw Yu Niang alone outside the mansion gate from a distance, she quickened her pace, she didn't go back so late, she knew that Yu Niang must be in a hurry.

"Yu Niang, we're back." Yu Niang turned around when she heard the sound, and when she saw Ling Xiao's figure coming in a hurry, her frowning brows finally stretched for half a minute.

"Gurgling, what's going on, why are you only coming back now?" Yu Niang's voice was eager.

"Let's go, Yu Niang, let's go in and talk about it." Ling Xiao felt very uncomfortable when she thought that she had passed the judgment at this time, but Yu Niang had been standing here waiting for her.

"I asked you not to take Xiao Xiao out, but I didn't listen, fortunately Xiao Xiao is fine, otherwise wait for the mansion master to come back, and see how you explain." Yu Niang walked and did not forget to reprimand Lu Ci.

And Lu Ci was as thick-skinned as a nine-story platform, and said: "Nothing happened, what are you doing in such a hurry?" It's called being in a hurry. ”

Lu Ci was talking easily, and in the blink of an eye, he saw Lu Bo appear in front of him, his face was as black as charcoal, and he glared at Lu Ci angrily, as if he would be eaten in the next moment. Lu Ci couldn't relax anymore, and called out in a sneering voice: "Dad, you haven't slept yet!" ”

"I thought you didn't know you were back? Go back to your room, and I'll come back to you later. Lu Bo was really angry this time, and his voice was as cold as a gust of wind blowing in the cold winter.

"Miss Ling, it's okay, go back to your room and rest early." Lu Bo was always polite when he spoke to Ling Xiao.

"Uncle Lu, I'm sorry to worry you." The people of the whole house looked for them for two hours, which was converted into four hours, and Ling Xiao was very unhappy.

"I can't blame you, what kind of person Lu Ci is, I know best, if something doesn't happen for a day, he is uncomfortable." Lu Bo said, and didn't forget to glare at Lu Ci's back that was gradually moving away.

"Then I'll go back to my room first."

Ling Xiao turned around and walked towards the courtyard with Yu Niang, and when he arrived at the courtyard, he had already told Yu Niang what had happened.

"Yu Niang, thank you for your hard work, go back to the room early to rest." It's really not early now, and it won't be long before the rooster crows, and Ling Xiao won't stay any longer.

No one blames Ling Xiao, but it doesn't mean that Lu Ci is also blamed. At this moment, Lu Ci was in the room to receive Lu Bo's reprimand.

"You see what good things you have done all day, and you have not done your business all day. You're going to go outside and make a fuss, I don't bother to care, but you want to take Miss Ling out, if something happens, I'll see how you explain to the mansion master. And how many times have I said that you should keep your distance from Miss Ling, that is

Don't listen. Lu Bo said with a blowing beard, glaring and bitterness.

Lu Ci knelt there and listened, and said weakly after a long time: "I never care about these subsections. ”

Lu Bo was even more angry when he heard this: "She may become the housewife of the Lu Mansion in the future, is it suitable for you to do this?" The lord of the mansion has never been so interested in a woman for more than 20 years, and even fools can see it. ”

Lu Ci curled his mouth: "So what." ”

"The most important thing for a girl is her reputation, you don't care, but others care. I heard Yu Niang say that this time it was you who stalked and took Miss Ling out. Lu Bo felt that Lu Ci was stubborn, and sighed and shook his head.

The toss in the middle of the night finally came to an end, and the Lu Mansion also returned to calm.

What Lu Bo said, Lu Ci has always been a deaf ear, but after this time, he didn't pester Ling Xiao to go out with him, and took care of Zidi and her mother alone every day, and even the messy thatch on the house had been recuperated by him. After more than ten days of recuperation, Zidi also suffered an injury on his foot

She was mostly well and could walk freely, but her mother's illness was still not improving. Lu Ci knew that her mother was powerless to return to heaven, and it was estimated that she would not survive this winter, but he was afraid that if he told Zidi the truth, Zidi would not be able to bear it, so he didn't tell her after thinking about it.

Without Lu Ci dangling in front of him, Ling Xiao's ears were also a lot quieter, practicing swords in the morning sun every morning, practicing with the autumn wind in the afternoon, and watching the bright moon play the flute at night. Time flickered, and more than 20 days passed like this, but time was not wasted, and she has now reached the "Cold Heart Sutra".

》The second layer, the second style of swordsmanship has been lean.

An autumn rain and a cold, such a night is getting colder and colder.

Ling Xiao still likes to sit on the bluestone at the top of the hill, looking at the moon rising in the east, and letting the cool breeze blow. The slightly melancholy sound of the flute drifted away with the wind from near and far, and drifted into the ears of the woman in black in the distance. What Ling Xiao didn't know was that the flute sound of more than 20 nights had never been exclusive to her. on that tree

The woman in black likes to be silent in the night as well as Ling Xiao, but the difference is that her heart is full of hatred, while Ling Xiao's heart is filled with disdain for the world after seeing the world clearly.

The flute did not stop, Yu Niang held a gauze lamp, walked behind Ling Xiao, and draped a cloak on Ling Xiao's body: "The night is cold, be careful of being infected with wind and cold." ”

"Thank you, Yu Niang, don't come here at night in the future, the mountain road is difficult to walk." Ling Xiao put down the flute, turned around, and spoke to Yu Niang's voice a little softer. In the past few months, Yu Niang's careful care of her is something she has never experienced in modern times, and she has not obtained it in modern times

, now she has got her wish, but she still can't tear the net in her heart, maybe she can't tear it in her life.

The woman in black jumped slightly, left the dead tree, and flew towards Ling Xiao, but Ling Xiao was unaware at the moment, and was helping Yu Niang to prepare to go down the mountain.

A black shadow appeared in front of Ling Xiao, and Ling Xiao and Yu Niang were both shocked. Before Ling Xiao could react, he was grabbed by the woman's arm and swept into the air, heading into the distance, so fast that a series of movements ended in the blink of an eye.

Yu Niang didn't know martial arts, and watched Ling Xiao's kung fu disappear in an instant. The yarn lamp in his hand fell to the ground, the lamp oil overflowed, and the whole yarn lamp burned. Yu Niang didn't have the heart to care about the mess on the ground at the moment, and hurriedly walked along the stone stairs.

Ling Xiao struggled for a moment, but after she saw that the person who captured her was a woman, she was quiet. Looking like he was in his twenties, his cold and thin side face was full of murderous aura, and his eyes were three points colder than when Ling Xiao first arrived at the Hou Mansion.

"What are you doing with me?" Ling Xiao has always been calm and calm about such things, and his words are very calm. However, it was the sound of the wind whirring in her ears that answered her.

Eventually, Ling Xiao was led by the woman into a cave, which was lit with an oil lamp, and on the innermost side was a stone bed, on which a dark bed tent was hung, and some basic utensils were all available next to the bed, and a long sword glowing with silver light was placed on the stone table in the center. The woman was taken by her

Ling Xiao of the cave took it to the stone table and sat down, and Ling Xiao saw the woman's cold eyes clearly.

Asked again, "We used to have a holiday?" ”

The woman put a glass of water in front of Ling Xiao: "We have a common enemy. ”

Ling Xiao felt that her words were really ridiculous, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and her tone was arrogant and cold: "Enemy? Who? How come I don't remember that I still have enemies in this world? ”

"Zuo Qiu Ji." The woman spoke these three words slowly, and her eyes were full of cruelty.

"He? The prime minister of the Central Plains. I'm in Huizhou, and he's far away in Jundu, how much enmity can I have with him? Ling Xiao thought it was ridiculous.

"The lives of more than 500 people up and down your mother's clan were all killed by him, don't you want to avenge such revenge?" The more Ling Xiao listened, the more outrageous he felt.

"You've mistaken someone." Although Ling Xiao's body couldn't move, it didn't affect her speech at all. Ling Xiao thought that even if she was Zhong Liyuan, then her mother would not be alive and well, and her life would be quite comfortable, and she had never seen the He family sad when she was in the Hou Mansion.

"Wrong person? You're just trying to escape. The woman looked at Ling Xiao quietly.

"What can I run away from? Joke. Ling Xiao's smile deepened.

"Let's not talk about the rest, so do you know who kidnapped you?" The woman knew that Ling Xiao would not believe in the enmity of her mother's clan, so she said that Ling Xiao was interested.

"Do you really know who I am? You don't want to tell me that the person who kidnapped me is Zuoqiuji, do you? Ling Xiao's face changed a lot.

"Yes, but the mastermind is Zuoqiu Cicada. Because you are in the way of their Zuoqiu's house. But they don't want you to die so cheaply, and send you to the Wa Kingdom to suffer **, this is what they want to achieve. ”

"How do you know that?" The woman knew so much, and Ling Xiao's face was a little surprised.

"I've been doing three things these months."

"Which three?"

"Murder, looking for you, investigating the mastermind behind your kidnapping." Murder came out of a woman's mouth, but it became as if it were normal.

"You did all these murders?" Ling Xiao never thought that a woman could do such a thing, and she didn't know how much hatred she had in her heart.

"No, I only killed those who should be killed, and the rest has nothing to do with me."

"What kind of person should be killed?"

The light shone on the woman's face, but there was no warmth at all: "The enemy should be killed, and now there are only three people left, and these enemies I killed are also your enemies." ”

She killed all the people in the rivers and lakes, but Ling Xiao came to the rivers and lakes for the first time, and Ling Xiao said that she would not believe anything: "Do you think I will believe your words?" ”

"Believe it or not." The woman also knew that this would be the result.

"What's your name?" Ling Xiao asked.

"Feng Baiyue."

"You've said what you should have said, can you let me go back?" Ling Xiao didn't want to get involved in the grievances of the rivers and lakes.

"It's okay if you want to go back to the Lu Mansion, but you have to practice the Cold Heart Sutra." Feng Baiyue put forward the conditions.
