Because of Wei Yan's previous orders, there were more people guarding Wei Zhongxian than in the movie, but most of them were not Ding Xiu's opponents, although Miao Dao could not play the advantage of opening and closing in a narrow room, but it also made it difficult for the enemy to avoid when swinging the knife.

After the long knife slashed through the neck of the third man in black, the person who had been sitting at the square table smiled and sighed softly, "That's enough, let's stop." ”

Ding Xiuyi paused the hand holding the knife, and the people around him also retreated with tacit understanding, he did not put the knife back into its sheath, but the tip of the knife hung on the ground, and turned sideways to look at the person who spoke just now.

It was an old man with a furrowed face, he seemed to be a little tired and hunched over the chair, his hair was in a messy bun, his white hair was scattered on his cheeks, and the 9,000-year-old who used to be in power and opposition was now only dressed in plain white linen, looking extremely embarrassed. But those eyes that were full of traces of time were full of smiles.

Ding Xiu was also laughing, and the two reached a tacit understanding in their silent gaze.

Wei Zhongxian straightened up slightly, lifted the black cloth on the table, and in an instant, the golden light illuminated his sneering face, and a hoarse voice accompanied by a muddy breath sounded: "Four hundred taels of gold, how about it?" ”

The corners of Ding Xiu's mouth were slightly hooked, he smiled evilly, and the long knife crossed the arc and put it on his shoulder, and said with a look of a scoundrel: "It's not enough." ”

Wei Zhongxian smiled, and the guards around him raised the long knife in their hands, and for a while, the atmosphere in the room was stiff and solemn, and the murderous aura was overflowing.

The man standing in the center of the room didn't seem to notice the stagnant atmosphere at all, raised his other hand and touched the stubble on his chin, looked at the gold on the table, his eyes were shining, but he couldn't hide his regret and sighed: "If it were just me, I would naturally be willing to accept the four hundred taels of gold, but I still have a companion." ”

Ding Xiu raised his hand and stretched out his index finger to point to the roof, Wei Zhongxian looked along, and saw a pretty-looking woman squatting to look at the situation in the house, she was wearing a bun, the broken hair on her forehead was wet and sticking to her cheeks due to the heavy rain, and a pair of dark brown eyes showed a little surprise when they met his gaze, but she quickly covered it with a smile.

Wei Zhongxian retracted his gaze, and the sinister smile on the corner of his mouth was even worse: "The money that one person can get is naturally more than the money that two people get." ”

The man's eyes flashed slightly when he heard this, and he seemed to be a little moved, but then he seemed to think of something, his brows furrowed, and he sighed in confusion: "My companion is a master of hidden weapons, and I am not her opponent, you don't have to say more." ”

"One thousand taels of gold, buying a life of nine thousand years old, should be worth it."

Wei Zhongxian has been in charge of the government for many years, and his mind is like a fox, so he naturally reacted in an instant, most of Ding Xiu's previous words were only half-fiction and half-reality, and only the last sentence was the point. He had no intention of maintaining a smile at this time, and his eyes gradually became indifferent: "How could I carry so much money at will." ”

"Besides, to be a man, you must know how to stop in moderation." With that, he sat back in his seat with a gloomy face, raised his hand and squeezed a piece of gold, and said no more.

Ding Xiu's smile was even worse, and he was about to say something, when suddenly he heard a muffled 'bang', and a man dressed as a scholar beside Wei Zhongxian instantly snorted, clutching the blood hole in his chest and falling to the ground, and at the same time, the short dagger in the man's sleeve fell to the ground with a thud.

Ding Xiu looked up in amazement, only to see the woman holding a strange-looking silver object in both hands, lowering her eyes and letting the rain fall down her eyelashes, and a pair of dark brown eyes looked at him with a hint of helplessness and anxiety at this time: "If Wei Zhongxian dies, we won't get a penny!" ”

Ruan Mo'an said, his expression sharpened, and he glared at the white-haired old man who was also looking at him with astonishment and horror, his tone faded a little anxiously, and he said with a sneer: "But if you die, what's the use of asking for so much money!" ”

Ruan Mo'an felt that something was wrong, because she knew the plot of the movie, she paid special attention to the little guy beside Wei Zhongxian from the beginning, but why did she shoot decisively as soon as she saw the cold glow in the other party's sleeve? Her heart was beating as smoothly as ever when she fired......

Plane crossing brings her not only fun, but also danger.

The whole person, the mind, the spirit. The danger of being changed.

She suddenly missed the 53 materials that always tortured her, and missed the ordinary life that belonged to her......

Ruan Mo'an closed his eyes in some pain, but his hands holding the gun were still steady. When she opened her eyes again, she happened to meet Ding Xiu's deep black eyes that seemed to see through everything, Ruan Mo'an was stunned, hurriedly looked away, looked at Wei Zhongxian, and asked, "You really didn't have enough 1,000 taels of gold on you?" ”

Wei Zhongxian smiled bitterly, before the threat of death, he seemed to have aged a lot, and his eyes flashed a bit of desperate twilight: "Do you think I will lie on the issue of my life?" ”

"Take us to where you store your belongings." Ruan Mo'an immediately decided. There was only one chance, and if she missed this time, she didn't know what year and month she would be able to complete this task of obtaining a thousand taels of gold from Wei Zhongxian, so she would never give up.

Ding Xiu frowned when he heard this, because there was Ruan Mo'an's secret weapon threatening Wei Zhongxian, he also relaxed his vigilance, looked up at her directly, and asked, "Do you have to ask for a thousand taels?" Four hundred taels is a lot, and you're not short of money. ”

"What's more, now that I've been targeted by the Jinyi Guard, whether I can escape from the inn or not is still a matter of two words." Wei Zhongxian said quietly, I don't know what I thought, and a trace of essence suddenly flashed in his eyes, "However, if there are two people to protect me......

His words were not finished, but Ruan Mo and An Ding Xiu already knew what they meant. Ding Xiu frowned at Ruan Mo'an and shook his head, but the girl didn't care about his opinion at all, clenched the gun in her hand, and said in a deep voice: "We'll escort you out." ”

Ding Xiu couldn't maintain his usual smile, he wondered if he had drunk outside before, otherwise how could he hear Ruan Mo'an make such a decision, he always felt that this woman who hired him was extraordinarily casual in terms of money, the bag of gold coins she threw to herself that day was already worth two hundred taels of gold, and a woman who gave away two hundred taels of gold with a wave of her hand is now willing to be the enemy of Jinyiwei for a thousand taels of gold, helping the eunuch who has been wanted by the imperial court?

He felt ridiculous, and he felt a hint of anger, he had never known this woman, and the other party had never tried to make him understand, she just thought of herself as a hired rogue, who only gave orders and never explained why.

Ruan Mo'an watched as the man below restrained his smile, put down the long knife from his shoulder, the tip of the knife pointed directly at Wei Zhongxian, he took a few steps forward, picked up the black cloth on the ground, and then packed the table full of gold and silver tickets into a package and hung it on his shoulder.

"You ......" Shen Lin suddenly felt a thrill in his heart, and exclaimed: "Ding Xiu! You! ”

Like the most uneasy thought that emerged in her heart, the man below raised his eyes slightly, and the cold light and an inexplicable smile in his eyes made Shen Lin stunned.

"That's it," his deep voice seemed to have other meanings in it, but Ruan Mo'an didn't think deeply, she was just completely provoked by the other party's actions and words.

"Either you can take the four hundred taels of gold and stop at it, or you will go and get the one thousand taels of gold with this old man by yourself." When he said that, he turned around and made a gesture to leave.

The black-clothed man around him wanted to swing a knife, but was stopped by Wei Zhongxian, who was sitting on a chair with a crane, and he looked at Ding Xiu's back with a smile on his face, and his hoarse voice was full of laughter: "Very good, I like sensible people." He raised his eyes and stared at the woman on the roof with cloudy eyes, "But I don't know what decision this girl will make?" ”

The man's figure froze.

[Main Gold Coin Quest: Obtain 1000 taels of gold from Wei Zhongxian, quest completion 400/1000]

Rainy nights, muddy paths.

Ruan Mo'an wrapped her arms in her arms and wrapped the black cloth in her arms, her hair was soaked with rain, her satin dress was wet and sticking to her body, and the cold feeling penetrated her limbs, but her heart was hot, it was the heat of being burned by anger.

"You...... Hatch! …… Why are you still following me? Although the other party gave him the money he took from Wei Zhongxian after escaping from the inn with him, Ruan Mo'an was still very angry, without the four hundred taels of gold, Wei Zhongxian might not be able to convince Shen Lian to spare his life at all, if Wei Zhongxian died, then how should her task be completed?

Thinking that she might stay in this strange world until she died of old age, her heart was filled with fear and sourness, tears mixed with rain falling, and she shivered all over, she hugged herself tightly, and her voice couldn't help choking: "You can't do things well with the money!" I'm going to give a bad review! Bad review! ”

The man who had been following unhurriedly behind him paused, and a sigh sounded: "Do you have to ask for a thousand taels?" ”

"Yes!" Ruan Mo'an wiped away his tears, turned around and said angrily with his neck twisted.

The girl's eyes were amazingly bright in the dark night, Ding Xiu looked at these eyes, and remembered that the other party was on the roof and shouted angrily, "Catch me, bastard!" Then he jumped down. I couldn't help but smile bitterly and touched my nose and said, "Since that's the case, let's go rob the caravan." ”

Ruan Mo'an was even more angry when he heard this, he didn't understand it at all...... What does it mean to him to get Wei Zhongxian's 1,000 taels of gold......

However, Ding Xiu's words continued: "Speaking of which, I have been drinking at the wine stall in front of the county gate recently, but I have discovered a strange thing. ”

Ruan Mo'an was stunned, and a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in her mind immersed in anger and despair, she took a few steps forward and grabbed the sleeve of the other party's arms, raised her head in the rain and stared at her eyes wide, "Could it be ......?"

The man raised his hand and flicked a brain bang to the girl in front of him, hooked his lips and smiled: "A few days ago, a caravan came from the city gate, but the strange thing is that the caravan stayed at the post station for several days in a row, and the caravan's horsemen are also all bandits' killing atmosphere, if my expectations are right, the caravan's goods should be Wei Zhongxian's gold and silver treasures." ”

The heart that had sunk to the bottom of the cliff suddenly rose into the air again, Ruan Mo'an didn't know what kind of expression she should put on her face for a while, she covered her forehead, gasped in pain, but the corners of her mouth were relieved and bright smiles, she couldn't help but laugh and scolded: "You didn't say it earlier!" I almost wanted to kill myself in anger! ”

After that, she breathed a sigh of relief, raised her hand to hold the other party's arm, and said excitedly: "Let's go!" We took advantage of the fact that Wei Zhongxian's main forces were not there to rob the caravan! ”

However, the arm in his hand was pulled twice but did not move, Ruan Mo'an dragged it again in disbelief, this time not only did not move, but even stumbled because of the mud under his feet and almost fell to the ground.

She gradually sensed that something was wrong, pursed her lips, and raised her eyes to look at Ding Xiu.

Ding Xiu's face was a little indistinguishable in the rainy night, but she could clearly see the corners of the other party's straight lips and the deep eyes that looked at her with his head lowered.

"If you can't get Wei Zhongxian's 1,000 taels of gold, do you want to commit suicide?" The man's voice was hoarse and low, faintly accompanied by the sound of rain.

Ruan Mo'an swallowed his saliva and sneered: "...... That's a joke. ”

She felt that Ding Xiu seemed to be angry, to be honest, she really didn't see Ding Xiu's angry expression a few times in the movie, this man seemed to not take anything to heart, always smiling lazily, when he was most angry, it should be when Jin Yichuan blocked the gun for him and died. But that scene was just a flash, and the movie did not describe Ding Xiu's reaction after that, but at the end, Ding Xiu avenge Jin Yichuan showed his anger.

But today she had already sensed that the other party was angry more than once...... Why is she so annoying?

Ding Xiu looked at the girl who was holding his arm and hanging her head and didn't dare to look at her, and sighed helplessly: "You...... Don't you think you should explain it to me? ”

Ruan Mo'an raised his head cautiously, and swore in his heart to pretend to be stupid: "Explain what?" ”
