The two slept together, one relaxed and lazy, and the other fully equipped, so they just dragged the shield over as a quilt cover.

The hardboard crossbow was against Chu Xia's leg, and he was silent for a long time, and finally couldn't help laughing.

"I didn't expect that this king would have a day when he was held up by a murder weapon in bed."

Zhuang Rou lay motionless on the bed like a corpse, opened her eyes at this time, looked sideways at him and said, "My lord, don't say such misleading words. ”

"Tomorrow I will go to the street with this king, and then follow me around in the afternoon, the first beauty in the world will start in three days. You didn't want to lure the sect master of the Bliss Sect out, it just so happened that this king took advantage of the free time in the past three days to help you lure it out. Chu Xia propped his head in his hands and said with a smile.

Zhuang Rou didn't want to follow Chu Xia during the day, she still had something to do, and she just wanted to take advantage of her when she came over at night.

She said: "That's not good, I have an appointment with Nangong Xianyu tomorrow, and I can't accompany adults." ”

"It's impossible for the sect master of the Bliss Sect to jump out and rob people on the street in broad daylight, he doesn't just want to rob one person, adults will definitely be fine during the day."

Chu Xia pretended to know about this, and asked curiously, "How did you know Nangong Xianyu and still have an appointment with her?" ”

Zhuang Rou thought that he didn't know when he first came, so she told him what had happened, including the fact that she had just given her the house and found twenty corpses.

"Maybe she just wants to blame you for killing someone, what do you think of her, the identity of the Nangong family is taken to the court by someone with a heart to talk about things, and it will only give you trouble." Chu Xia said lazily.

Zhuang Rou replied: "It's hard to say, maybe I can catch the evidence that the Nangong family has always been a thief and wants to restore the country?" ”

"You don't have to be so loyal to Dahao, it's not your family's country, you haven't rebelled for hundreds of years, where is this ability now. Don't worry, the imperial court has been staring, and the prince is still working as a proton in the capital. Chu Xia said lazily.

Seeing that he didn't take this seriously, Zhuang Rou knew that he just didn't take it to heart, so he muttered about the key points.

After talking for a long time, she turned her head and saw that Chu Xia was already asleep.

When he was asleep, he was no longer ostentatious and unruly, and swept away the breath of the whole body, like a quiet cat.

As long as you don't open your eyes, you won't stretch out your hidden paws lazily.

Zhuang Rou stretched out his hand and poked his face, and saw that Chu Xia frowned, but he didn't wake up.

She smiled and withdrew her hand, shrunk into the quilt as well, sniffing his body and falling asleep.

Xiao Ran stood on the roof of the house, and used his internal force to hear the sound of gentle breathing in Chu Xia's room, according to his usual experience, this was an adult asleep.

The adult is really a decent gentleman, and it seems that he has been fighting all night again.

At this time, Yang Qing ran over from the roof opposite and said with a smile: "Boss, does the wall sound good?" ”

Xiao Ran glanced at him indifferently, "The adults are asleep." ”

"Huh?" Yang Qing was very disappointed, "I came all the way here, and I didn't eat it just like before, the adults are really heroes among people, this concentration is really admirable." ”

Xiao Ran scolded: "Who allows you to gossip about adults behind your back, and you will be punished." ”

This frightened Yang Qing, and he quickly said with a hippie smile: "Boss, don't be like this, I don't care about adults." ”

"Adults have their own proportions, and it's not our turn to talk too much." Xiao Ran said solemnly.

Although he thought about it in his heart was similar to Yang Qing, as the head of the guards, of course he couldn't get together with everyone and talk about it behind his back.

He ordered with a straight face: "If you keep watch on the roof for me tonight, it will be regarded as a punishment for your mouth." ”

Yang Qing smiled and responded, thinking that this punishment was really light.

Nothing happened overnight.

On the second day, the sun was shining in through the pane, and Chu Xia opened his eyes lazily, and saw that the people next to the pillow were long gone, and even the quilt over there was cold.

Touch it, it's at least a little more than an hour.

He rolled over, muttered and closed his eyes again, "Ruthless fellow, you won't recognize people when you get up." ”

"My lord, it's already walking outside." Xiao Ran's voice came from outside the door, and he used his internal force to listen to his breathing to know if Chu Xia had woken up.

Chu Xia didn't say anything, he didn't really want to be more beautiful, whoever likes to walk on that street will go, anyway, he has to continue to sleep for a while.

Seeing that there was no speech inside, Xiao Ran knew that he didn't think about it, and the things on this street were not important.

For so many years, he has understood the preferences of adults very well, and when he really has to do something, he can go without sleeping for a few days and nights.

Xiao Ran wanted to retreat and let the adults sleep enough.

He was just about to leave, when Chu Xia suddenly asked through the door, "When did Zhuang Rou leave?" ”

"My lord, she will leave on the fifth watch." Xiao Ran replied.

It was so early, and it wasn't dawn yet!

Chu Xia said disgustedly: "Get up so early to be a thief!" ”

After scolding, there was no movement again, knowing that he continued to sleep again, Xiao Ran retreated silently.

Zhuang Rou, who was scolded by Chu Xia to be a thief, was standing in the house next to Huayan Building at this time, looking at the people cleaning the house with both hands.

She came back early in the morning before dawn, and saw that except for the corpse being moved, the house was not cleaned at all, and there were sprayed blood stains everywhere, which made people live in it!

Turning his head, Zhuang Rou went to pat the gate of the county office, and quarreled with the county order, asking him to wake up the government clerk, and take all their families to clean up the house.

Before dawn, he was woken up from his deep sleep and shouted to work, and no one was happy.

But when I turned my head, I heard that as long as I went to work, one person could get three hundred dollars of hard-earned money, and I was all happy again.

I heard that as long as you can work, no matter how old you are, you can go, and the daughters-in-law not only want to go by themselves, but also call the half-grown children in the family, and the in-laws have not let go, carrying buckets and brooms to work.

In fact, this house was guarded by subordinates before, and it wouldn't be dirty if it was cleaned every day, but without the owner here, it was naturally not so attentive, as long as the surface was not too obvious gray.

Zhuang Rou brought people over to sweep it, and promised to prepare a meaty breakfast for them, and if they were lazy, they would be driven away immediately.

With the benefits, everyone worked very seriously and cleaned every corner of the house. Worried that they would not be able to find something to do, those who knew how to raise flowers also pruned all the flowers and plants in the yard.

Even the moss in the cracks of the green brick road in the yard were shoveled and washed with water to make them shiny and shiny.

Zhuang Rou looked up at the roof, wondering if she would send someone up to wash the roof.

After all, this is not a new house, although the people of the Nangong family do not live in it, it is also an old thing for several years.

As he was looking, a servant came over with a broom and saluted, "My lord, there are blood stains on the tree, I don't know if you have plucked the blood-stained leaves, or washed them one by one?" ”

There was a lot of blood on it, and if it was washed piece by piece, he felt that he would have to dry until noon.

He plucked the leaves without asking, and he didn't dare.

These trees are all repaired, and if there is a leaf missing, it will change dramatically, and it will not look good.

The powerful are very particular about this kind of thing, and if you break other people's feng shui, it will be a big sin.

Although twenty people died in this house, and the feng shui has rotted to the house, it is not excluded that it is precisely because of this that the problem is used to play and push out the sin of bad feng shui, so that the house can be sold in the future.

Zhuang Rou didn't care about this kind of thing, what she wanted was clean, so that Chu Xia could live comfortably.

She was about to say that she had picked it, but when she turned her head and saw the tree, she stopped.

The tree was nearly two feet above the courtyard wall, very tall, and at this time there were two people standing on the top of the wall, holding on to the tree pole and using the bamboo pole to hit something on the top of the tree.

It was a beautiful prayer lantern, which somehow fell on the tree, and there was no trace of burning, and it should have been not long after it flew up, and the fire was extinguished and fell.

And there is a lot of blood on the branches near the top of the wall, because it is sprayed on the leaves, so it is easy to ignore.

Now it is necessary to clean up the whole courtyard, there are more people and less work, and they are looking for work everywhere, and naturally they will be found on the trees with prayer lanterns and blood stains.

Zhuang Rou walked over, stepped on the ladder to the top of the wall, and looked around carefully.

There was a lot of blood sprayed on the leaves, but there were no on the walls, just a few drops of blood that had been thrown off the flicker.

With what she had learned from Shi Zang, she had a scene in her mind of someone standing on the top of a wall, being slashed in the neck from outside the courtyard.

The blood was sprayed all over the trees, and the corpses fell, and the few drops of blood on the wall were not sprayed up, but flung up the blades.

Well, that night the murderer was killing people from outside the wall, at least when the people in the courtyard picked up the lights, there was nothing out of the ordinary.

Zhuang Rou looked out of the wall, and across the wall was Huayan Building.

The murderer is here.
