Chapter 9 Diverting the Tiger from the Mountain
"Ekoshi...... I'm hungry......" Xiao Chuyun said as he followed.
When the two of them came out of the envoy's house, it was already more than half of the unitary hour, and in the winter night, it was already dark at this hour, and there were even fewer people on the street.
Snowflakes fall from time to time, the ground has been covered with a thin layer of snowflakes, the cold moonlight shines on the ground, like a layer of smooth silk, gently spread on the ground, white and flawless.
Xiao Chuyun's two little hands were shrunk in his sleeves, his two little feet trembled forward, his snow-white little face was also frozen red, and every breath he exhaled formed ice crystals on his eyelashes, and snowflakes fell on his hair one by one, like a snow girl.
"Wonton ~ Wonton ~" A grandmother on the side of the road shouted and sold.
Xiao Chuyun stopped and looked at the roadside stall, the cooked wontons were steaming, and she could smell the aroma of the wontons from afar, which made her gluttons churn even more.
Xiao Chuyun swallowed his saliva, came back to his senses and hurriedly followed, grabbed Jiang Yue's sleeve, and prayed coquettishly: "Jiang Yue, I'm hungry~ Aren't you hungry?" Is it okay for us to eat bowls of ravioli? ”
"Not hungry!" Jiang Yue said lightly.
Looking at the villain in front of him, Jiang Yue always had an illusion, as if the girl in front of him was not the real Xiao Chuyun, and her behavior was too strange.
Xiao Chuyun pulled his arm, and there was another coquettish offensive, and he kept selling cuteness and said: "You see that I am a weak woman and a patient, can you bear to make me hungry for so long?" I don't eat again, I'm afraid...... I didn't die at the hands of others, but you starved to death first! ”
Jiang Yue brushed off her hand, looked her up and down carefully, his eyes were slightly cold, and he said in a somewhat unhappy tone: "Who is the girl?" ”
Xiao Chuyun was a little stunned, she didn't think that Jiang Yue would suddenly ask this question, could it be that he knew Xiao Chuyun before? Otherwise, how can you see that the Xiao Chuyun in front of you is not Xiao Chuyun?
"Jiang Yue, what are you talking about? Why don't I understand? I...... That's me! Xiao Chuyun pretended to be calm and said.
"It's nothing, I just think that the girl is not like an ordinary young lady of the same age, and she is a little more mature and calm in comparison, I just think it's strange!" Jiang Yue suddenly turned his words back, somehow, he didn't want to pierce this layer of window paper, what does it matter if it's true or not? For this case, there is only Baiyi and no harm, if she is fake, then sooner or later she will show her fox tail, so there are some things that don't need to be in such a hurry.
When the words fell, Jiang Yue looked at the wontons at the roadside stall, passed by Xiao Chuyun's side, walked towards the grandmother over there, lowered his head and swept the wontons, and said, "Grandma, give me two bowls of wontons, remember not to put green onions and coriander in one of the bowls." ”
The two sat on the table next to them, and as soon as the wontons were served, Xiao Chuyun couldn't wait to pick up the spoon and eat it.
"Ahh Scalding ...... Scald me! Xiao Chuyun immediately spit out the uneaten wontons in his mouth.
Seeing this, Jiang Yue picked up the white porcelain teapot on the table, poured half a cup of water, handed it to Xiao Chuyun, and said, "Don't worry! ”
Xiao Chuyun drank a few sips of water, and the hot feeling in his mouth slowly eased, and then he noticed that Jiang Yue's bowl only had wonton soup and wontons, and compared with his own, there seemed to be less green onions and coriander.
"Don't you like chopped green onions and coriander?" Xiao Chuyun said with some doubts.
"Yes!" Jiang Yue said lightly, then lowered his head and ate the wontons.
As soon as the ravioli bottomed out, a cold wind blew, and a few dark clouds slowly drifted by, obscuring the moon.
"The moon is dark and the wind is high, and the night kills people!" Xiao Chuyun looked up at the sky, the cold wind blew in her ears, and this scene made her can't help but remember this sentence.
As soon as the words fell, the wonton bowl in Xiao Chuyun's hand suddenly exploded, and the palm was also scratched by a diamond-shaped dart, which was obliquely embedded in the corner of the table.
Seeing this, Jiang Yue pulled Xiao Chuyun up, retreated to the corner of the wall, and protected him behind him, while the grandmother on the side had already been frightened.
Holding the official knife in his hand, his eyes looked around, and according to the direction in which the darts flew from, he looked at the roof of the house in the southwest, and only saw that there was a black-robed man standing on the roof.
"Little girl, that's a good point! The moon is dark and the wind is high on the night of killing, and this situation and this scene just match...... Last time, I let you go, but this time I didn't have that good luck! The black-robed man clapped his hands with some contempt, and said very arrogantly.
"You're one of the twenty-four protectors of the Boyue Sect?" Jiang Yue looked at the black-robed man on the roof, and subconsciously protected Xiao Chuyun tighter.
"Hmph~hehe~ When you die, I'll tell you who I am!" The black-robed man said in a weird and arrogant manner.
As soon as the words fell, the black-robed man waved his hand and threw seven diamond-shaped darts and flew straight towards Jiang Yue and them.
Jiang Yue used the official knife in his hand to knock the dart down, and the next moment, the black-robed man waved the whip, and with a light touch of his feet, he jumped down.
Syllable!
The sound was very loud, and the sound of whipping broke through the sky, Jiang Yue turned around and hugged Xiao Chuyun in his arms, and jumped up from the corner of the table with a light touch of his feet. As soon as I jumped up, I only heard the sound of the black-robed man's whip hitting the wall, and the sound of dross and debris falling on the wall, and the sound of stones falling to the ground.
Jiang Yue put Xiao Chuyun at the mouth of an alley, held her shoulder, and said very solemnly: "This alley goes to the end and turns left and can go directly to the backyard of the Luoshen Doctor's house, you go quickly!" ”
After saying that, he turned around and jumped away, leaving Xiao Chuyun alone at the mouth of the alley.
Jiang Yue and the black-robed man made more than a dozen moves, and his arm was drawn twice to the bloody mouth, and the black-robed man didn't find any cheapness, and his leg was also slashed twice by Jiang Yue.
At this time, there was another tragic and miserable flute sound, which came from not far away, and the black-robed man immediately withdrew his hand, stepped aside, smiled proudly, glanced at the alley where Xiao Chuyun was standing just now, and said: "Your life is not valuable, I am not interested, our target is that little girl, Jiang Da catches quickly, thank you for your cooperation!"
Jiang Yue's eyes swept at the mouth of the alley, and his heart suddenly felt uneasy, looking at the black-robed man, he gritted his teeth with hatred, and every word was full of anger: "Tune the tiger away from the mountain!" Good fun! I'm still the same sentence, if you dare to hurt her, I'll pay for your life! ”
On the other side, Xiao Chuyun was running in the alley, and the two black-clothed men with scimitars behind her kept chasing her, and the piercing sound of the tip of the knife cutting through the wall in her ears was flickering far and near, never broken.
These two people, like cats and mice, will always play with and enjoy the fun until they exhaust their physical strength, and Xiao Chuyun is now the prey of those two hands.
"Egoshi! Egoshi! Xiao Chuyun shouted as he ran.
The two black-clothed men behind him suddenly stopped, the two looked at each other, one of them turned into another alley, while he continued to chase Xiao Chuyun with a knife.
"Ahh
However, after a while, Xiao Chuyun's legs were weak and he fell to the ground, and just wanted to get up, but a man in black appeared behind him, Xiao Chuyun, who was hit back and forth, sat on the ground and retreated little by little.
A man in black walked up to Xiao Chuyun, and before she could react, a cold knife was already on her neck, and the cold temperature made her heartbeat faster.
"Where's the jade pendant?" The man in black said unpleasantly.
"Jade pendant? What jade pendant? I...... I do not know! Xiao Chuyun was already in a fog at this time, and he didn't have time to think about anything.
The man in black was a little impatient and gently patted her cheek with the back of the knife, and threatened: "The Pisces jade pendant left by your father Xiao Zhengqing!" Take it out! ”
"Jade ...... Jade pendant? Xiao Chuyun subconsciously just raised his hand, but the next moment he shook his hand and immediately vetoed: "My father didn't give it to me, and the jade pendant is not here with me, really!"
Xiao Chuyun suddenly realized at this time that so many things had happened, perhaps because of that Pisces jade pendant, she couldn't hand it over, and the Xiao family was wiped out, and it was impossible to leave a single survivor!
At this time, the only thing you can do is to stall for time!
"Wait!"
A man suddenly walked in at the mouth of the alley, followed by two burly guards, calmly and calmly, walked over, saw the scimitar raised by the man in black, and opened his mouth to stop.
The man in black turned around and looked this person up and down, but the moon was dark and the wind was high, there was no light, and his face could not be seen clearly at all, only his voice could be heard, which was very magnetic, very good, with a hint of undoubted feeling.
"Where did you come out of nowhere, go quickly!" The man in black raised his knife and said.
"Coming out of the dirt!" As soon as the words fell, the two guards behind him raised their hands and threw out two silver needles, flying towards the eyebrows of the two men in black.
The two fell to the ground in response, and the knife in their hands also fell to the ground, leaving only the frightened Xiao Chuyun still sitting on the ground, looking at the man in front of him who couldn't see his face clearly.
"Girl, you owe me another favor! How are you going to pay it back? The man walked slowly to Xiao Chuyun's side, slowly squatted down and said playfully.
"You...... Who are you? I...... I'll tell you! I don't have a jade pendant, I don't know anything, don't look for me......" Xiao Chuyun stepped back again and again, for the current situation, she was more willing to pretend to be stupid, this person came from an unknown place, and she couldn't hand over the jade pendant.
"Yin Yunqi!"
"Yin ...... You...... What proof do you take? ”
Xiao Chuyun kept an eye on it, in this case, she couldn't believe anyone, when she started at that moment just now, she knew that everything was aimed at the jade pendant, she knew that she would either throw it out early, or hide it well, for the two, she chose the latter.
Yin Yunqi gently leaned into her ear and whispered, "In the cave that day, you looked very cute when you fell asleep, do you want to come again and prove my identity?"
"Shh As soon as Xiao Chuyun wanted to say something, Yin Yunqi's index finger was placed on her lips, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, and he said again: "I saved you twice, what do you give me back?"
After that, Yin Yunqi picked up Xiao Chuyun, as if watching a good show, and listened to Xiao Chuyun with his hands behind his back: "I...... I don't have any money! People are not beautiful enough, and their bodies are not good enough...... How about I'll save you twice? ”
