These words reminded Shen Shu of the "bamboo leaf wind" that saved her in the bamboo forest just now.

Shen Shu's stiff back relaxed slightly.

In that situation at that time, she was able to prevent the third brother from noticing, and with just a few willow leaves, her elbow hit the third brother's gun handle.

It requires extremely precise reflexes, superb light work, and strong internal force.

These three abilities, no matter what they relied on, at such a close distance in the bamboo forest, it would be easy for this person to kill their brother and sister by surprise.

And he, not only did not kill the killer, but also saved himself.

This means that—

This man must have something else in mind.

Thinking of this, Shen Shu pulled out her hand from between the pillows.

This person is strong in martial arts, even if she holds a dagger, I am afraid that she will not be able to hurt him in the slightest.

Shen Shu sat up from the bed with her arms in her arms, her black and white apricot eyes opened very wide in the dark night, and she looked at the man without losing the slightest battle.

"Who are you? What do you want to do? She asked warily.

The glimmer of light from the window paper blurred the outline of the man's facial features.

Fortitude and profundity.

Especially when he looked into Shen Shu's eyes, it seemed to be tentative and insightful, which made her feel an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

The man straightened up and said with a light smile: "Don't blame the girl, I came to your mansion late at night and wanted to visit someone." I was fortunate enough to witness the girl and Brother Ling, and the girl should know where that person was. ”

The word "girl" is matched with the man's deep and hoarse voice-

Let Shen Shu immediately think of the man in white in the Ginkgo Courtyard in Fuyun Temple that day!

Shen Shu wrinkled her nose slightly, and sniffed quietly-

Probably stayed in the bamboo forest for a long time, and the man had a faint bamboo fragrance.

Other than that, there was no other smell, let alone the medicinal fragrance of the man in white.

Was she wrong?

"Who are you looking for?" Shen Shu asked in a low voice.

As soon as these words fell—

Suddenly, there was a sound from outside.

The conversation between Xu is man and Shen Shu alarmed the green peach who was on night duty outside.

Green Peach muttered sleepily, got up from the couch, and walked towards the bedroom!

Shen Shu heard the footsteps of the green peach, and her heart was not good.

She couldn't tell if the man was friend or foe, and she couldn't guess what his intentions were.

In case, Green Peach came in and saw him screaming and angering the man, I am afraid that it will cause trouble.

Thinking so, Shen Shu hurriedly lifted the quilt and got out of bed-

At the same time, Green Peach had already walked to the door and pushed the door open!

Between the electric light and flint -

The man dodged and went behind the door.

"Girl?"

Green Peach walked into the room and looked at Shen Shu who was walking towards her in surprise.

She didn't have time to ask—

I only felt a numbness on the back of my neck, and I fell to the ground softly!

"Green Peach!"

Shen Shu's face changed greatly, and she hurriedly stepped forward to support Lu Tao's body.

"Don't panic, girl, I just clicked on her sleeping hole."

The man said this in a low voice, walked to the table, and lit the oil lamp in the room with a fire breaker.

Shen Shu reached out suspiciously to probe the green peach's snort.

Breathing is fairly even.

Her eyebrows were lit by the candle flame, and there was nothing out of the ordinary.

Shen Shu's heart was slightly relieved.

She laid the green peach flat on the ground, stood up, and looked at the man's back warily—

Tall, straight, and thin.

The shoulders and backs covered by the night clothes are well-proportioned and firm.

At first glance, he is a practitioner with extraordinary martial arts.

Nonetheless –

For some reason, Shen Shu felt that this man's figure was very similar to the scholar in the Ginkgo Courtyard!

"Are you...... Xiao Duhu that uncle? She asked bluntly.

If this person is really the scholar in white, although he is a little stingy, he can be regarded as a righteous gentleman.

"Xiao Duhu? Uncle? ”

The man's tone was puzzled, and he turned around with a light smile: "The girl must be ...... I recognized the wrong person. ”

Until this moment, Shen Shu finally saw his face clearly-

It was a very handsome and elegant face, but it did not lose its fortitude.

The ink eyebrows that fly obliquely into the sideburns, the deep nose bridge, and the thin and light lips......

Especially the narrow Ruifeng eyes, like a spring mountain, quiet and distant.

He just looked at her with a faint smile, and the elegance in his eyes was like a smiling Buddha, with the thoroughness and profundity of insight into everything.

Such a skill, such a face like a fairy—

Except for a pair of Ruifeng eyes, there is no similarity with the white-clothed scholar who looked ordinary and had no power to restrain the chicken that day.

It is difficult for Shen Shu to associate the man with outstanding temperament in front of him with "assassin" and "bad guy".

Shen Shu's eyes looked deeply at the man's eyebrows-

Unconsciously approached him a little closer...... A little closer.

Until—

She saw the ash mark between the man's eyebrows, which was only half the size of a fingernail, and clearly understood.

Shen Shu's eyes unconsciously carried a little regret.

Longevity!

Sure enough, it's a jealous talent.

is young, but he is a "thin man".

Looking at the incense ash mark on his eyebrows, it is only two or three hours of yang shou at most, and he can't even see the sun in the early morning.

"Who are you going to inquire?" Shen Shu asked again.

Because she pitied the man's "short life", unconsciously, her voice was a little softer than before.

The man was clearly not used to having strangers so close to him.

He smiled slightly, took a few steps back quietly, and asked detachedly and reasonably: "I want to ask, where is the master who taught the girl the 'Ten Smoke Steps' now, and can the girl take him down to see him?" ”

The man came to Yunjiang this time, with the emperor's order, and he didn't want to have anything to do with the Ten Emperor Uncles, so as not to cause extraneous branches.

However, that day, the Shen family brothers and sisters were unusually sensitive to the poisonous weeds in Yunjiang, which made him think about it and change his mind.

The abilities of the Shen family's brothers and sisters must have been personally taught by the important "alien warriors" under the Ten Emperor Uncles.

And such a "stranger" is what men urgently need now.

In the past three days, the man sent his subordinates to inquire in many ways, but they could not find out the slightest news about the "stranger".

So, he simply led people to come at night and stayed in Shen Jinming's courtyard, trying to take advantage of the appearance of the "stranger" to quietly abduct him.

But he didn't expect that he didn't wait for the "stranger" to appear, but he understood-

Among the two brothers and sisters, the person who is proficient in toxicology is not the elder brother Shen Jinming, who is "both civil and military" in the mouth of outsiders.

It's the "shallow and reckless" sister Shen Shu!

I don't teach my brother with good qualifications, but I teach my sister with reckless qualifications-

Such a trick can only be done by the Ten Emperor Uncle, who is known as the "ghost talent".

Because of this, the man became more interested in this "stranger" hiding in the Shen Mansion.

Therefore, after accidentally exposing his traces in the bamboo forest, he came directly to Shen Shu's house.

"Ten smoke steps?" Shen Shu asked in surprise: "What is the Ten Smoke Steps?" ”

The man's deep eyes looked at Shen Shu insightfully.

His thin lips lightly spread a clear smile: "If you want to come to that master, for the sake of safety, I shouldn't tell the girl the origin of this step, so as not to leak the news......"

The man said, his steps were slightly wrong, and his body was extremely light and neat.

Under the flickering of the candle flame, his whole body was like light smoke, almost as if he was about to float in the air.

With his handsome face, which is so beautiful that people can't take their eyes off it, it looks like a fairy who wants to return to the feather!

"This is the 'Ten Smoke Steps', can the girl go with you to meet the master?" The man asked.

Shen Shu looked at the very familiar steps under his feet-

"Teach", "Ten Smoke Steps", "Let's Go to the Master" ......

These words turned around very quickly in Shen Shu's mind.

With the same footwork, the man used it more skillfully and elegantly than he did.

At first glance, it is from an "orthodox" background.

And she learned it all from dreams.

Plus, the man looks like this—not like a mortal.

There are only two or three hours left in his yang life......

These clues converged extremely quickly in Shen Shu's mind.

She suddenly opened a pair of apricot eyes, stared at the little incense ash mark left in the center of the man's eyebrows, and asked stumblingly: "You, are you the Luo and Arhat sent by the Buddha to arrest me back?" ”
