This is a five-storey painting building, the eaves of the top floor are hung with rows of bells, the bells are black and bright, and the appearance is like the bronze bell that will ring every day in the temple hanging in the four-corner pavilion, the cool autumn breeze blows through the high part of the building, the white tassel under the copper bell swings, the wind chimes make a pleasant sound, like whispering with the wind, compared to the first floor full of frolicking sound, the high place of the building is very elegant and quiet.

Looking up from the bottom of the painting building, the fifth floor is very quiet, so quiet that there is not a single sound, and the openwork panes are closely arranged, not a single door has been opened, and it will never be opened, until the evening dusk afterglow penetrates the panes, and the reflection of the patterns on the panes will gently brush on the faces of the people who pass in front of it.

There is a spacious boundary in the backyard on the first floor, which was later used as the kitchen of the late autumn season, the kitchen help the kitchen to the small house are all dressed in black clothes, there are few maids in the late autumn, it is said that the landlord pities the woman, the rough work and heavy work are done by the man, and the late autumn does not accept the woman as a maidservant, if the girl wants to enter the late autumn, you must be proficient in the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and enter the building only to play the piano and speak, although the service is monotonous, but every year there are men who come to visit, some of them are trekking through mountains and rivers to listen to the girl talk about a tune, and some make a special trip from Jingzhao, Bring all kinds of strange things and smile for Miss Bo.

Late Autumn has a history of several years, Su Comet remembers that when he was still in the family sons, the sons of the family in Jingzhao Mansion were invited to go together, not only the sons of the family, he also heard that Jingzhao had an infatuated minister who asked the emperor to ask for a holiday night and traveled from Jingzhao to Yongzhou to see the top girl in the late autumn.

If you are doing intelligence trading, then this late autumn is a good place. Thinking about it, he took the coat of the little guy in the building from the backyard and put it on, mixed into the team of the little guy who went to the second floor to wait, and followed the last head with his head down.

The black cat poked its head out of his arms and meowed, only one sound, and the comet covered the black cat's mouth, and when the team turned the corner, he turned around and entered the corridor, releasing the black cat from his arms.

"Are you sure he's here?" Comet said to the black cat, and smiled at the end, knowing that it didn't understand, but still liked to say to himself, "Where?"

The black cat stood up, raised its tail and strode upstairs, just as the sound of gentle footsteps came from upstairs, and the sound entered his ears, and the comet ran a few steps forward to hold the black cat and hide it in his arms, fortunately, the clothes were wide and the sleeves were wide enough to hide things.

After a while, the two girls came down from the upper floor, he didn't dare to look up, only from the perspective of lowering his head, he saw a heavy bird embroidered on the skirt of the woman's waist, both of them were dressed in red, and they were not wearing the kind of skirts that ordinary girls who played the piano and sang songs in the late autumn, but tight-fitting palace clothes.

Su Comet was secretly startled, and turned his body to the side to make way for the two girls, instinctively not wanting to attract attention.

Late autumn was robbed twice, Gu Xi specially instructed to be careful of outsiders, the two girls looked at him dressed as a small guy in the building, originally thought he was a little guy didn't care, side by side downstairs, Su Comet watched the figures of the two girls disappear around the corner, he hugged the black cat tightly, and quickly went up to the third floor, and then bypassed the team that delivered the meal, more than a corner in the corridor, the corridor in the late autumn is very peculiar, every day the corridor is straight, only at the end there will be a turn, and after a corner, it is another corridor, There is a wooden door at the bottom of each corridor facing the other end of the corridor, the wooden door is also hollowed out, no window paper is pasted, and the panes on the corridor are also not pasted with any window paper, so the wind blows in every corner of the building in late autumn.

Su Comet couldn't help but wonder about the design of this building, building such a building with air leaks on all sides, no wonder it only opened in autumn, and it is estimated that no one will come back no matter how famous it is when it opens in winter.

Just thinking about it, the black cat in his arms fluttered a few times, rushed out of his open sleeves, jumped forward twice to escape him, and rushed to the end of the corridor, the comet had no choice but to chase, there is an unwritten rule in the late autumn, if you are on the first and second floors, you can make any noise, and the places above the second floor should be elegant and quiet, and the reception on the third floor is naturally not an ordinary person.

The black cat turned a few corners and went up the stairs, but he didn't dare to shout or run too hard, for fear of disturbing the silence in the building.

In a private room on the fourth floor, the melodious music was played but only half a song was played, and a terrible scream came from the body of the piano, the strings were broken, and the strings hit the back of the hand of the girl who stroked the qin, and a shocking mark was made.

Gu Xiao held the tea, the tea was not eaten, and the water ripples were shocked out of the cup, and the water ripples spread from the edge of the cup, and it was not difficult to see the force.

He put down the teacup, and a smile appeared on his lips, the smile was self-evident, it was sarcasm: "I visited three times in January, Your Excellency is really idle, and you can rush to and fro, it is better to stay and have a cup of tea with Gu." As soon as the words fell, he backhanded the teacup on the table, slapped his palm on the table, the teacup bounced, he raised his hand to hit, and the teacup flew over quickly, but it did not hurt the arrival, and was held in the palm of his hand impartially.

"Heh, I only need one thing, and if I don't give it to me, I'll grab it." The man said, and the teacup was shattered in his hand.

Gu Xiao looked at the man, only to see that he was dressed in black, wearing that expressionless mask on his face, he stood on the window flute and pounced on his feet.

Gu Xiao turned his body to the side, dodged a wave of attack by the man, and subconsciously covered his hand on the right side of his body, so the person found the location of the thing and reached out to probe it again, the two fought for a few rounds, on par, and no one stood up for a long time, and there was no intention of a draw.

After a while, Gu Xiao began to struggle with his hand, and was given the upper hand, the man made a cut in front of him with a short knife, and took away the things hidden on his waist while he was unprepared, and when he was about to escape, Gu Xiao smashed the tea cup on the table, although the man had escaped from the window, he was still injured by the broken porcelain piece he thrown.

"Yes, yes." Of course, what he said was not what he meant, Gu Xiao's blood was surging at this time, and he was annoyed. The screen standing next to him was kicked out by him, smashed against the wall, and was torn apart.

On the other side, Gu Xi heard outside the house that the fight in the house had finally stopped, and heard the sound of Gu Xiao smashing things inside the house to vent his anger, raised his eyebrows, and was about to push the door in, but a black shadow suddenly jumped out at his feet.

Gu Xi was stunned for a moment, and Comet Shu, who ran upstairs after the black cat, was also stunned.

After a long time, Gu Xi finally discovered his existence, raised his head in a daze, the eyes of the two met in the empty corridor, the woman was wearing a garnet red dress, and the evening dusk afterglow was sprinkled on the hollow pattern pane, leaving mottled shadows on the bodies of both of them.

Rao knows who the person in front of him is, if he doesn't know, Su Comet probably will also think that the beautiful girl who the infatuated adult came to see may be the person in front of him.

Gu Xi didn't recognize the young man in front of her, of course, even if she gave her the conditions to recognize her, she couldn't recognize her, because he was no longer the young man she knew, and now this feeling of reunion after a long absence can only be experienced by Su Comet herself.

Before he could ask who he was, the door in front of Gu Xi babbled open, and the man was dressed in green like the new spring color on the mountain in the twilight of spring, his eyes were full of blood red, and his green tendons were soaring, perhaps it was caused by the rush Gu Xiao's current state seemed to be out of control, and before he could see who the person in front of him was, he stretched out an arm and pinched the neck of the person in front of him and pressed it against the wall.

The black cat was frightened and fled back to the foot of the comet, and heard a muffled sound, Gu Xi's back was slammed against the wall behind him, the sun was mottled on the faces of the two, and Gu Xiao's eyes were blank and murderous.

The comet's eyes looked directly at the man not far away, the man was dressed in turquoise, and his black hair was only tied behind him with a blue head rope, although it was full of fierce light, his whole body trembled because of the pain, and the source of the pain was a long knife mark on his chest, which extended from his left shoulder to his right waist, and was oozing blood unstoppably.

Gu Xi reached out and grabbed the man's arm that was pinching his neck, trying hard to break free, the man was so angry that he lost his mind and killed his eyes, if she usually endured it, but this time he was not sure that he would really die in his hands.

Seeing this, Su Comet knew that the woman was uncomfortable, and he didn't hesitate to step forward and push the man away, his eyes still looked at the man, the man was pushed by him and took a step, stood firm and turned his head, and glared at him with red eyes.

It wasn't the first time that Su Comet had seen Gu Xiao's eyes, he had seen it once fifteen years ago, so he knew the consequences, he might be crushed.

"Brother." Gu Xi shouted, stopping Gu Xiao's fist in the air.

Su's heart beat faster, like a war drum, and the blood in his whole body boiled with the sound of the drum.

He died in Jingzhao fifteen years ago because of Gu Xiao, but fifteen years later, he met again in such an identity and in such a way, should he still laugh or cry.

He thought about many scenes when he said goodbye to Gu Xiao, he thought that Yongzhou was far away from Jingzhao, so when they said goodbye, it should be when he entered Beijing with King Yong, at that time he may have successfully controlled Qin Yuezhu, but he didn't think that he would leave Jingzhao.

"Sorry?" Gu Xiao seemed to have come to her senses, frowning and looking at everything in front of her, Gu Xi was coughing with her chest, and a man was standing in front of her to protect her, dressed as a servant, but with a faceless face that attracted attention.

A gust of wind had just crept up in the corridor, and the wind passed through the corners of the three of them's clothes, blowing through the sideburns, and there was a hint of autumn's unique coolness.

Gu Xiao was looking at him, and Su Comet knew that he shouldn't stay here for a long time, so he hurriedly knelt down and didn't dare to say more, the black cat had already run away when the scene was chaotic just now, and he was not busy looking for it, he just wanted to fool Gu Xiao's eyes.

But where is Gu Xiao easy to deceive, and after a while, he said: "Isn't it above the third floor that servants are not allowed to come up?" What did you come up for? With that, he reached out and pinched his chin, the pressure between his fingers increasing to the pressure.

Gu Xiao has a pair of amber eyes, perhaps because he has half of the foreign blood on his body, his height is much higher than that of the Central Plains, and his strength is greater than that of others, but now those amber eyes fell on his chin, an inconspicuous red mole.

Gu Xiao frowned: "It's really a coincidence, it looks in the same position." As he spoke, Gu Xiao's hands were already accumulating, his fists were clenched very tightly, his bones rubbed against the green tendons, and climbed up his arms again.

Gu Xi held the hand that pinched the young man's chin before Gu Xiao's punch went down, blocked in front of Gu Xiao, looked at him coldly and said, "It's just like Zhang, our whereabouts have been exposed now, brother, it's better not to ask for trouble." Her meaning has been made clear.

Gu Xiao sneered and withdrew his hand: "It's just a servant, what is the second sister doing."

Gu Xi rarely tensed in front of him, Gu Xiao was also suspicious, the corners of his lips were hooked with a hint of coolness, he was clearly smiling, he bent down and his clear eyes were full of coldness, just looking at the young man in front of him, as if he was watching something interesting.

"I don't know this child," Gu Xi said coldly, the pomegranate-red dress walked past him, and said to Gu Xiao, "Jingzhao has sent news that the King of Qi has ordered someone to check on you, and if my brother doesn't return to Beijing now, I'm afraid the situation will be difficult to control." ”

Gu Xi is not very old, at most she is only double ten, but she looks extremely sophisticated, compared to Gu Xiao, she is more like the person who has been in the officialdom for many years, although she has never stepped into the officialdom for half a step.

Gu Xiao heard this, but he was unmoved, straightened up and said, "It's not time yet."

What is not the time, what Gu Xiao is planning. Even if he racked his brains, he couldn't think of it, although he knew what Gu Xiao said.

"Get up." Gu Xi said to Su Comet, her apricot eyes smiled, her lips slightly pursed and hooked her lips and smiled, "You go down first." ”

Sushi Comet was stunned for a long time before he reacted, got up from the ground, and wanted to say something to her, but unfortunately he still couldn't say it when the words came to his lips and felt inappropriate.

Before leaving, he deliberately glanced behind the door where the sound of the fight came from just now, the screen was shattered, and the teacup was shattered into slag and scattered all over the ground, he expected that this fight would be lost and both sides would be injured, Gu Xiao had already been injured, so the person who was entangled with him must also be injured.

A few days ago, he had smeared the powder of deep-sea caviar on Qin Yuezhu's body, if the black cat had not made a mistake, then the person who fought with Gu Xiao was probably Qin Yuezhu.

It didn't take long to see a few red shadows jumping out of the window on the fifth floor of the late autumn season, and the people in the late autumn were all black-clothed, and there was only one family in the rivers and lakes where the disciples wore red clothes and wore heavy birds on their sleeves or waists, and that was the secret listening pavilion of the Gu family.

The Secret Listening Pavilion does not raise killers, but specializes in raising some people who have good ear power and light work, and use them for eavesdropping, this kind of people call them secret listening, and the secret listening can be pervasive and can also conceal their whereabouts, and the information from eavesdropping is not traded to the outside world and is handled by the head of the Gu family.

Secret listening will not kill people, obviously, Gu Xiao sent secret listening is not used to kill people, if he guessed correctly, Gu Xiao wanted to find out what the identity of the person who injured him was.

The black cat jumped down from the stone wall, rubbed against his feet, meowed, and the sky above his head gradually darkened, and the sky was still clear, but it was already cloudy.

"Can you find him?"

Black Cat: "Meow."
