Fortunately, I didn't take off my clothes when I went to bed last night, so I asked him to turn his body over, threw down the quilt and quickly straightened his clothes, came to him, and glared at him viciously: "Early in the morning, you want to scare people to death!" ”

The shopkeeper smiled at me again and again, said endless good words, and saw that my expression eased a little before handing me a burden and a letter in his hand, and said, "Girl, this is left by the guest officer who came with you yesterday, and he said that you will understand after reading this letter." ”

I suspiciously took the things in his hand, opened the letter, and saw that there were only eight small words written on the white rice paper: a woman disguised as a man and sneaked into the palace. The language is concise, the font is vigorous and powerful, and at a glance you know that it must have been done by the masked man.

I opened the bag again, and saw that there was indeed a men's outfit inside. I put down the things in my hand and asked the shopkeeper again: "Where is he now?" ”

"That guest officer left before dawn, by the way, you can see his room money..."The shopkeeper looked at me with blank eyes, and did not continue to finish speaking.

I nodded at him, and then flipped through the baggage he left for me, but nothing came out, and I immediately greeted his ancestors again.

"That's... I would like to ask, do you have any jobs here that can be deducted from the house payment? ”

As soon as these words came out, it really ushered in the disdainful gaze of the shopkeeper. He looked me up and down, and said with some displeasure: "So you are here to eat white food!" I'll just say how can you live in a store like ours with your dress. ”

His words made me angry immediately, but I just suppressed this breath, and I could only smirk at him, thinking in my heart that I would meet the masked man in the future, and I must avenge the humiliation this time.

So, thanks to the masked man, I worked in this shop for seven days, every day I not only have to greet customers, but also wash dishes, mop the floor, clean, for seven days, I haven't slept a good night, I haven't eaten a good meal, looking at the more and more meatless face in the mirror, I can only sigh silently.

Before leaving, I deliberately helped them do an extra day's work, just to be able to exchange a few steamed buns. I changed into that men's outfit and wandered the bustling streets with my baggage on my back.

The sun overhead looked spicy, but it didn't feel any warmth shining on the body.

I don't know where the palace is, so I can only walk aimlessly. When you are hungry, you take out a steamed bun from your baggage, find a stall with the aroma of beef and slowly nibble on it, while smelling the fragrant beef noodles, while nibbling on your own steamed buns, as if what you eat in your mouth is not steamed buns, but that bowl of beef noodles.

I was gnawing with my eyes closed, when suddenly there was a commotion in my ears, and then I felt a loud scream from the people around me.

When I opened my eyes, I saw a group of black-clothed people suddenly appear not far from me, holding bright swords, fighting with someone.

I walked over cautiously while nibbling on the steamed buns, and then squatted at a small stall that had been kicked down and watched. I saw a man in a dark blue brocade robe surrounded by them and resisted hard, and the group of black-clothed people were also extremely ruthless, and the move was fatal, if it weren't for the brocade robe's martial arts, it was estimated that they would have chopped it into meat sauce long ago.

I saw that I was so excited that I felt a flash of silver light in front of me, and when I looked up, I saw that a man in black had come to me, and the sword was straight at my throat.

I hurriedly thrust the steamed bun in my hand, which I had only bitten twice, into the edge of his sword, and jumped forward, but I didn't know that this leap actually jumped to the side of the brocade-robed man. As soon as those men in black saw me coming, their ruthlessness was much higher than before, and they aimed their long swords at me.

"Each... Ladies and gentlemen, I'm just a passerby, and I don't know him. As soon as I finished saying this, I felt a sword aura slip through my ears, and a few strands of hair fell lightly to the ground. If he hadn't pulled me, I'm afraid it would have been my head that had fallen to the ground right now.

"Concentrate and don't talk nonsense!" His voice was low and pleasant, and it inexplicably calmed my pounding heart. I took a few deep breaths and stood back to back in the middle with him, warily looking at the men in black who were constantly approaching us.

When I was in the Phantom Sword Palace, I only learned light skills, and I always felt that it was the truth that I could run if I couldn't fight, so that I didn't have any interest in those swordsmanship at all. But now I'm completely wrong, I think if I had learned a trick and a half, I wouldn't have been beaten now.

I put a basket made of bamboo over my head and ran back and forth between them. The brocade-robed man seemed to have lost some physical strength and was gradually defeated.

At the critical moment, I seemed to hear the neighing of horses, and through the gap in the basket I saw a group of men and horses coming in front of us, and when they came closer, I saw that it was a group of soldiers in armor.

"Hurry up and protect the prince!" A roar exploded in my ears, and the men in black who had been surrounding me disappeared at once.

I heard the sound of the sword fading away, and after a while I slowly moved the basket away, and I saw a man in fish-scale armor half-kneeling in front of the brocade-robed man, his hands clenched into fists and raised above his slightly drooping head.

"It's all right, get up." The brocade-robed man said lightly, turning his gaze to my face. I was a little hairy in my heart when I was stared at by him, and I smiled at him and turned around to slip away.

"You helped the king, how do you want the king to reward you?" Before I could lift my steps, the dark blue had already appeared in front of me, and I looked up at him, only to realize that he was really good-looking.

The sword-like eyebrows, the high bridge of the nose, the thin lips, and the jewel-like black eyes are shining, like the stars at night on the mountain behind the Phantom Sword Palace, brilliant and dazzling.

I looked into his eyes in amazement, and saw my little figure reflected in the deep ocean, and my heart began to beat faster again.

I hurriedly shifted my gaze elsewhere, coughed clearly, and just wanted to politely decline, but I caught a glimpse of the steamed bun on the ground that had already been trampled into bread, so I had to bite the bullet and say: "The villain wants to invite the master to eat." ”

Silence replaced all voices, and I lowered my head and didn't dare to look at him, and my heart kept silently saying that I must agree, I must agree, and my hands began to twist each other uneasily.

"Good! From now on, you are the king's personal bodyguard. The sound of heaven came out of his mouth, and I almost didn't jump in excitement.

I tried my best to suppress the excitement in my heart, kept my voice as calm as possible, and half-knelt down like the soldier just now, and said, "Thank you to this master, the little one must do his best and live up to the favor of the master!" ”

There was another long chirp of the horse, and when I looked up again, all I was left with was the flying dust and his fading figure.

I patted the dust on my body and stood up, and said to the soldier who was already standing beside me, "The villain is tired of this master leading the way." ”

The soldier was not polite, he looked at me disdainfully, and snorted softly: "You kid is lucky!" Then he strode forward.

I picked up the burden that had just fallen on the ground and quickly followed, and said some kind things to make his attitude towards me soothe a little.
