Chapter 23: Discovering the Secret
Xie Jinlan immediately straightened his face: "Brother Niu, don't worry, our brother is not the kind of ungrateful person. ”
As a sign of his determination, he raised his right hand and made an oath:
"I, Jin Lan, swear here today that if I do anything to be sorry for Brother Niu and my cousin-in-law in the future, I will be thundered! Come to a sticky end! ”
After the words fell, Xie Jinlan looked at Li Da Niu with anticipation: "Brother Da Niu, in this way, can you believe me?" ”
Li Daniu is not a cautious person, and seeing that Xie Jinlan has done his part, it is not good to hold on to it.
In the end, he just bluffed: "As long as you are really good to my father, I will teach you all my skills." ”
Xie Jinlan responded with a smile.
It wasn't until Li Youcai drank the medicine and lay down that the three of them went back to the house to rest.
When he saw the light in Li Daniu's room disappear, Xie Jinlan, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, immediately stood up and said to Mo Yan, who was spreading a quilt on the ground:
"I'll go out first, if Li Daniu or Li Youcai come to me, you try to stop them. I really can't stop it, so I find a credible reason. ”
When Mo Yan heard this, he made a movement in his hand, and looked at Xie Jinlan's back in surprise: "My lord, are you going out so late?" ”
"Hmm." Xie Jinlan bowed slightly, and then quietly walked out of the house.
When he was about to close the door, he told Mo Yan again: "After laying the floor, remember to blow out the candles, don't wait for me." ”
After walking to the wall and confirming that there was no one else around, Xie Jinlan lifted his breath slightly, jumped slightly, and jumped outside the wall.
Following the direction in his memory, Xie Jinlan came to the backyard of Li Tiezhu's house.
But before he could jump over the wall, a faint whisper accompanied by a faint wind came into his ears intermittently from the backyard.
After listening attentively for a while, Xie Jinlan's eyebrows twisted slightly, and he only felt that the voice was very familiar.
After settling down, Xie Jinlan took a breath and jumped in from outside the wall.
Following the sound, he came to the date tree.
People who practice martial arts are already more deaf and clear-sighted than ordinary people.
Therefore, Xie Jinlan could easily see Ruan Yezhen squatting under the tree.
"What are you doing here?"
The sudden voice frightened Ruan Yezhen uncontrollably.
Cautiously raised her head, and when she found that it was Xie Jinlan, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Then she stood up, and the first thing she said was to complain in a low voice: "Xie Jinlan, you scared me to death!" ”
The corners of Xie Jinlan's mouth hooked slightly: "So timid, why do you want to stay here?" ”
Ruan Yezhen was instantly embarrassed.
Recalling the appearance of her leaving in a hurry a few times before, a hint of realization flashed in Xie Jinlan's eyes: "It's strange that you are going to leave after dark, isn't it, after nightfall, you can't leave here?" ”
was guessed the truth, Ruan Yezhen also broke the jar and fell: "So what? If you're trying to make fun of me, just laugh. I can't stop you left or right! ”
Suddenly, Ruan Yezhen thought of a question: "Why are you here?" You can't guess I'm here, right? ”
Speaking of business, Xie Jinlan also put away his joke: "Are you here these days and nights?" ”
Ruan Yezhen's lips pursed slightly, and her tone was very depressed: "I don't know why, no matter how much I try to do it, I just can't leave the jujube tree three feet away." ”
Xie Jinlan then asked, "Then have you noticed any abnormalities in the past few days?" ”
Ruan Yezhen pondered for a moment, then slowly shook her head: "No." ”
I don't know what she thought, her face turned slightly red: "However, I've been too scared these days, even if there is any movement, I may not be able to notice it." ”
Fortunately, the night was dark, so the blush on Ruan Yezhen's face was not very real.
It made her a little less embarrassed.
Xie Jinlan hung his head slightly, not knowing what he was thinking.
This made Ruan Yezhen feel a little apprehensive in her heart: Did Xie Jinlan blame her for being too useless?
After a while, Xie Jinlan raised his head and looked at Ruan Yezhen with a meaningful smile: "Girl, in the next period of time, I still need you to do something." ”
Through getting along in the past few days, Ruan Yezhen also has a preliminary understanding of Xie Jinlan. Hearing this, he couldn't help but look at him vigilantly: "What do you want?" ”
Xie Jinlan's face remained unchanged: "No matter day or night, I want you to stay here all the time." Until you notice anything wrong, you will notify me. ”
Ruan Yezhen looked at Xie Jinlan with suspicion: "Isn't this your deliberate plan to support me?" ”
Xie Jinlan shook his head with a smile: "I'm not going to do such a boring thing yet." ”
Ruan Yezhen looked reluctant.
Xie Jinlan stretched slightly, as if inadvertently said: "Oh, no one is watching here, I'm afraid it will be difficult to make progress in this case." ”
Even if he knew that Xie Jinlan deliberately said this to himself, Ruan Yezhen had to compromise.
I saw her bite her lip slightly: "I can promise you this." But you also need to promise me one thing. ”
Xie Jinlan raised his eyebrows: "Oh? I would like to hear about it. ”
Ruan Yezhen seemed to feel a little embarrassed to speak, her lips chattered for a while, then she gritted her teeth, closed her eyes, and said, "Grab a little snake for me and put it here." ”
"Little snake?" Xie Jinlan looked at Ruan Yezhen in surprise, suspecting that there was something wrong with her hearing, "Is it the kind of snake that is long, covered with scales and crawling on the ground?" ”
The most difficult words had already been spoken, and Ruan Yezhen felt that the next words were much easier: "I just like snakes, how about it?" ”
Xie Jinlan's face quickly returned to normal, and he smiled lightly: "Not well." Everyone has their own preferences. It's just that your preferences are different from ordinary girls. ”
Ruan Yezhen looked at Xie Jinlan's expression, and seeing that it was indeed the same, she couldn't help but feel a little more happy in her heart: "My father said the same thing, it seems that you and my father are in the same way." ”
When Xie Jinlan heard this, his face stiffened slightly.
Ruan Yezhen saw the change in his expression, and was quite puzzled: "Xie Jinlan, what's wrong with you?" ”
Xie Jinlan shook his head slowly: "It's okay." ”
After a pause, he continued, "I'll bring a little snake here as soon as possible to be your company." ”
Ruan Yezhen couldn't help but have a very bright smile on her face: "Xie Jinlan, thank you." ”
Xie Jinlan was slightly shaken. Immediately, he gently skimmed his face as if inadvertently: "This is a trivial matter, you don't need to be polite." ”
"I have a white snake at home, and I named it Xiaoqing. If I have the opportunity in the future, I will take you to meet it. ”
Xu was reminded of the sad thing, and Ruan Yezhen's mood instantly fell: "I don't know, I still have the possibility of going back." ”
"The boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, and don't worry about it needlessly. Live every day well, so that you will not be ashamed of yourself. ”
Rarely, Xie Jinlan comforted softly.
