Chapter 20: The Assassination of Xia He
Xia He sat in the carriage and was slightly stunned when he saw Chu Tiankuo.
Yanxiang introduced: "Senior brother, her name is Xia He, and she is a poor person. She's sick, and I'm going to let her go with us, and you're not going to object, are you? ”
Xia He coughed again. Coughing and flushing.
Chu Tiankuo was surprised, but his face was also calm, and he nodded and smiled: "It's a good thing to save people and help others, how can I object?" I'm going to praise you. ”
"By the way, Sister Xia, I forgot to introduce, he is my senior brother, his name is Chu Tiankuo, and he is a famous fan son on the rivers and lakes." Smoke smirked.
Along the way, Chu Tiankuo and Xia He didn't talk much, but the cigarette was chattering excitedly. Chu Tiankuo smiled, looking at her like a poisoned person.
When staying at the inn in the evening, Chu Tiankuo booked two rooms. Yanxiang naturally wanted to go to the same room with Xia He.
Chu Tiankuo grabbed her maliciously behind him, "Senior sister, where are you going?" Your room is here. Chu Tiankuo pointed to another room.
"Senior brother, are you saying that I sleep in the same room as you? Isn't that good? Yan Xiang snickered in her heart, her eyes purring on Chu Tiankuo's body.
Chu Tiankuo was a little unnatural by her, and laughed self-deprecatingly: "What are you staring at me like this?" Don't we often sleep in the same room? ”
"Why do we sleep in the same room?" Cigarette repetition problem.
"Because I'm injured right now and need your protection." Chu Tiankuo reluctantly thought of an excuse.
Xia He turned around and glanced at them meaningfully, and entered the room. Smoke Xiang blushed and embarrassedly followed Chu Tiankuo into the room. The old rule, smoke and incense sleep on the bed, and Chu Tiankuo sits at the table. Yanxiang saw that he was injured and wanted to give him the bed to sleep on, but he just refused. Yanxiang shouted that he wanted to sleep with Xia He, but was pulled back by Chu Tiankuo.
The sky is full of stars. In the middle of the night, Chu Tiankuo, who was in the room, suddenly heard a few subtle footsteps outside, held his breath and listened, the footsteps approached, and the footsteps stopped. With years of experience in walking the rivers and lakes, he knew that the woman who claimed to be Xia He was definitely not simple.
Chu Tiankuo keenly smelled the smell of danger. Through the faint starlight, from the corner of Chu Tianku's eyes, he vaguely glimpsed someone standing by the window, looking inside. Chu Tiankuo continued to pretend to be asleep.
Sure enough, after a quarter of an hour, the man threw in a dart, Chu Tiankuo's wit flashed, and there was a sound of a teacup smashing, and the dart almost hit Chu Tiankuo.
"Who?" He let out a reflexive shout and chased after him.
The smoke was woken up. She yawned, rubbed her sleepy eyes, and scrambled out of bed.
"Xia He, what are you doing standing here without sleeping in the middle of the night?" Chu Tiankuo stared at Xia He, who looked nervous, and asked knowingly.
Xia He didn't dare to look up at Chu Tiankuo, his body stiffened, his body shook unconsciously, and he said slurredly: "I'm scared alone, can I change rooms with you?" ”
Chu Tiankuo didn't want to act with her anymore, so he severely dismantled her: "Rhetoric." Your trick can only deceive a simple little girl like Yanxiang. How can you hide from the eyes of my fanned son. Look at you walk calmly and strongly, like a sick person. Who sent you? Say it! ”
Xia He pretended to be confused: "What are you talking about?" Do not understand. ”
Chu Tiankuo grabbed her hand, and the force was too strong, Xia He fell back unexpectedly, Chu Tiankuo stretched out his other hand to hold it, and just hugged her in his arms.
Such an ecstatic posture and such an ambiguous action made 10,000 deer collide in Xia He's heart. Her face was red, her ears were red, and her heart was pounding. Being hugged by him like this, Xia He's mind was in a mess, she looked at Chu Tiankuo's heroic side face stupidly, and for a while she forgot that she was here to assassinate him.
At this moment, Chu Tiankuo didn't look at Xia He, he touched her pulse, raised his eyebrows and sneered: "I really didn't guess wrong." You have a smooth pulse, condensed true qi, profound skills, and a person who practices martial arts. Why pretend to be a patient to deceive us? Say it!"
Yanxiang stood at the door, looking at it from her point of view, Chu Tiankuo in the courtyard was holding Xia He's waist with one hand, touching her hand with the other, looking at her with a look of affection, and saying affectionate words to her in his mouth.
Hum. I just met so quickly and hooked up. Hypocrite! Big carrots! Shameless! The smoke incense scolded Chu Tiankuo in his heart. She huffed and turned her head away. Suddenly, I saw movement in the dark, and it seemed that a knife was flashing.
Smoke stomped his feet, and shouted in a hurry: "It's on fire!" It's on fire! Come and put out the fire! ”
Chu Tiankuo immediately reacted and let go of Xia He's hand.
The traveler who stayed at the hotel panicked and ran out of the room.
The people hiding in the corners mixed in with the crowd and ran away.
Xia He glanced back at Chu Tiankuo and walked away with a crimson face.
Everyone stared at the instigator of the rumors of the fire, and when they saw that she was a young and young woman, they shook their heads, sighed, and went back to the room one after another.
Chu Tiankuo also glared at the cigarette incense, he couldn't take her, "Let's go, go back to the house." As he spoke, he walked towards the room, and Smoke followed him aggrievedly.
"Why are you sitting here if you don't go to bed?" Chu Tiankuo lit the coal lamp, closed the door, and sat down at the table. Smoke Xiang also sat down.
"I have something to ask you." Yanxiang tilted his head and said, "...... you?" ”
"I'll talk about it tomorrow." Chu Tiankuo waved his hand and interrupted her words.
"I'll be too curious to sleep if I don't ask." Cigarette pulled his sleeve.
"Alright. All right. What do you want to know, ask. Yanxiang looked at Chu Tiankuo with begging eyes, and Chu Tiankuo said impatiently.
Yanxiang's eyes flashed, and he narrowed his eyes and said, "Senior brother, you already knew that Xia He had a problem, why didn't you demolish her?" You just let her go on purpose, didn't you? ”
Chu Tiankuo said with a calm face: "Why? I'm not here for you? I'm doing this to teach you a lesson, the hearts of the people in the rivers and lakes are sinister, don't trust people easily. ”
Yanxiang hung his face: "Senior brother, you said it nicely. said it was for me, but in the end it wasn't to see how beautiful she looked. Do you dare to admit it? It feels wonderful to hug a beautiful woman just now, right? Don't be careful! ”
"That's nature. Peony flowers are also merry to be ghosts. Chu Tiankuo deliberately angered her, looking at the smoke moth frowning, the phoenix eyes were wide open, and the small mouth was digging high, he couldn't help laughing.
Yanxiang sneered: "You can still laugh." If I hadn't shouted and scared those people into fleeing, you would have died. ”
Chu Tiankuo sneered: "Senior sister, don't forget, you recruited people." ”
Yanxiang let go of the hand that pulled his sleeve, stood up, raised his eyebrows, and smiled angrily: "Senior brother, I saved you, you didn't even say a word of thanks, and you blamed me." ”
