"Noon."

With a soft call, Xu Qing, who was originally asleep, quietly opened his eyes and looked sideways at Wu Qi. Wu Yu hurriedly stepped forward and helped Xu Qing out of bed in distress.

"Master, the stand-in is ready."

Hmm, Xu Qing frowned slightly. I haven't seen her for three years, Feng Gu seems to have found something, and he actually tested her frequently. It's capable!

However, martial arts are ......

Much more solid than before.

When the two of them came to the screen, the wooden barrel used to bathe was already filled with boiling hot water, and it should be almost cold by this time. Xu Qing held on to the edge of the bathtub and let Wu Yu take off her clothes.

"Master!" Wu Yu lowered his voice and let out an exclamation, Xu Qing's originally fair waist had a circle of red marks.

"Go get the nephrite cream."

"Yes."

Xu Qing stepped into the tub and submerged in the warm water from the neck down. There are green mint leaf tips floating on the water, and the faint smell of mint blends the warmth and refreshment of the room.

Closing his eyes, a cool breeze blew through the window lattice, ruffling Xu Qing's broken hair.

Wu Yu moved quickly, not only took the ointment but also brought the clothes by the way. It was not the usual Qingyun splendid skirt, but the poor black robe that Xu Qing wore less often. Putting the clothes on the wooden table next to the bathtub, Wu Yu knelt down respectfully towards Xu Qing.

"The dark passage is open?" Leaning lazily on the edge of the bathtub, Xu Qing's deliberately lowered voice returned to its previous clarity.

"Back to the Lord, it's already open." Wu Qi's head was buried very low, and there was a little more fear in his heart.

Listening to this voice, the door owner can't be wrong.

"I didn't find out why all four of them came to Kyoto, right?"

As soon as the tail note was raised, the morning and night in the dark all appeared in front of Xu Qing and knelt in a row. The four of them are investigating this matter.

I snorted coldly in my heart, after so many years, both sides know each other too well.

Xu Qing's body leaned forward slightly, and a pair of cold and deep Danfeng eyes swept over the four of them, "Do you remember that there were once nineteen powerful big dark guards in Jiuqingmen, huh?" ”

The tragic picture came to mind, and Wu Yu was excited.

"It's a subordinate who deserves to be damned!"

"Hmph~" With a low smile, Xu Qing leaned back to the edge of the bathtub, "It seems that the impression is a little blurry." I'll help you reminisce about your memories again, and the secret was once the little nineteen of the nineteen......"

The three of them pulled out the short knives on their waists and glanced at each other.

"That's it!" Xu Qing looked up at the roof tiles, and there were obvious traces of passivity.

"Go and chase it, take the head and take it to the small underground palace, so that you don't die."

The three black shadows flashed and disappeared, leaving the afternoon still kneeling on the ground.

With a hook of the index finger, the ointment flew up in the air and landed steadily in Xu Qing's hand.

"Get up."

"Yes."

At the same time, in the main hall of the small underground palace, Qiu Bai sat on the second chair with his eyes closed, and there were people in black kneeling below.

The structure of the entire small underground palace is a regular dodecahedron, the walls are covered with flat white stone bricks, and the light emitted by many candles is refracted to make the small underground palace as bright as day. The upper six sides were more than a zhang larger than the lower ones, and the junction became the middle edge, and a corridor was built.

Five half-zhang wide staircases lead to the main hall below, where the exquisitely carved rosewood railings and the ubiquitous gemstone pendants all show the extraordinaryness of this place.

On the rock-headed stone table embedded between the stairs, there were men in black wearing dark red masks standing one after another, and the last one to come was a noon man in a strong suit.

Here it comes!

Qiu Bai got up calmly, and there was a chair next to her that was obviously much higher.

"Autumn White."

The clear voice came from far and near, and suddenly a person sat on the top spot. The person who came was dressed in a cumbersome black robe, and under the shadow of the brim of the hat was a cold and pretty face.

"Door Master." Qiu Bai bowed slightly to the visitor, with a solemn expression.

In the main hall, all the kneeling black-clothed people said in unison: "Welcome to the Lord!" ”

Xu Qing raised his eyes and looked down at the people below, pursed his moist red lips, and glanced at a place seemingly casually. With a wave of the jade hand, except for Qiu Bai, the rest of the people in the hall disappeared without a trace.

"Qiubai, sit."

"Yes." Without anyone else, Qiubai's brows furrowed, and he looked at Xu Qing hesitantly.

"Auntie knows?"

After thinking for a while, Qiu Bai bowed his head and said softly: "Yes." ”

As the "second" in the door, she has the qualifications to know all the news.

Qiubai was a little apologetic, "It's the old slave who was negligent, I didn't expect the sons to come to Kyoto, are they suspicious?" ”

How dare they! Has the door ever treated them badly?

Suddenly, the words changed, and killing intent surged out of Qiu Bai's eyes, "It's better for the old slave to take action and solve them for the door master!" ”

Originally, the four of them were just looking to accompany the young master, to put it bluntly, they were sparring partners, and the honorific title of Gongzi was also for the sake of the face of the master. At present, the young master has been able to balance the pros and cons and has become the master of the door, and the overall situation will be decided. Naturally, there is no need for them to stay!

Anyway, their close-quarters guards are all people in the door, Qiu Bai thought secretly.

"Not necessarily." Fingernails scratched the pads of the index fingers, and I couldn't say what I felt, "It's fun to keep them." ”

Xu Qing remembered the two warm pills in the secret bag, and actually smiled at Qiu Bai.

Qiu Bai was stunned for a moment, "That...... The meaning of the owner of the door ......"

"Let them go, since the eldest prince has said so. If I don't follow his will, will I not provoke him to be suspicious? After taking a sip of the brewed new tea, Xu Qing's eyes glanced at the beautiful tea soup twice.

Hold on for the time being?

Qiubai pricked up his ears and waited for Xu Qing's decision.

"Besides, keep them in the door to help you more." There may be surprises......

Is this going to be officially listed as a disciple?

Qiu Bai was unwilling, in fact, as early as when she knew that Feng Gu and the others had left the place of training, she had already moved to kill. In her eyes, this is a betrayal in disguise!

But on second thought.

That's fine, too! Just follow the orders of the door owner. If they dare to live up to the hard work of the door master, she will definitely not survive!

The four of Yunmu didn't know that they almost lost their lives because of a small act, and they were immortalized because of another action by Feng Gu.

Putting down the teacup, Xu Qing carefully sorted out the attitudes of the four Feng Gu.

Yun Mu was just awkward in his heart, Xiao Chi still liked to play with her as always, and Xia Liang was a little suspicious - the most important thing was Feng Gu! Quietly tried many times.

It's a pity that she didn't show her feet. Rubbing the joints of his fingers, Xu Qing sighed helplessly.

The word suspicious, Feng Gu learned seven or eight times out of ten. A little more hurts oneself and thinks wildly, and one less point is useless. It's the essence of learning!

A person who practices martial arts must not only be good at skills, but also have a smart brain, and being suspicious is also a kind of intelligence.

These thoughts flashed away, and Xu Qing was about to get the teacup subconsciously, when another thought suddenly popped up and he moved.

I almost forgot......

Pinching the teacup and flicking it somewhere it had been glimpsed before.

"Bang!"
