Chapter 195: One Thing Descends One Thing
Hearing Fang Ziyu's words, Xu Han and Ye Hongjian, who finally came back to their senses, glanced at each other, and they both saw the look of embarrassment in each other's eyes.
Of course, the two quickly adjusted their state and began to appease the angry Fang Ziyu, and asked about the approximate reason for the incident. Only then did I learn from Fang Ziyu's mouth that after hearing about the huge bounty offered by Nangong Jing, Chu Qiuli Su Mu'an's body and Yan Xue Ning joined the ranks of this "bounty hunter", they had probably investigated this matter before, and they knew more or less about the traces of some people who infiltrated Henghuang City, and naturally reported all of them to Nangong Jing in the face of heavy profits.
This made Fang Ziyu, who was already extremely bad with Nangong Jingji, inevitably have a feeling of being betrayed by everyone, so he sent out such a big anger.
Xu Han and Ye Hongjian, who understood the reason for the matter, in order to appease this eldest lady, naturally inevitably promised that they would never "collude" with Chu Qiuli and others!
Although Fang Ziyu was skeptical about this, he finally suppressed the anger in his heart for the time being.
However, it seemed that just in case, Miss Fang followed behind Xu Han and Ye Hongjian like a dog skin plaster, and she followed wherever the two went.
Xu Han and Ye Hongjian were learning exercises in the courtyard, she had to watch from the side, Xu Han and Ye Hongjian went to the restaurant in the city to eat, she also had to follow, Xu Han and Ye Hongjian went to buy ingredients, and she had to follow. When asked her why, Miss Fang said to him, "I'm just... It's just boring, I want to see Henghuang City with you, so I'm not worried that you will go behind my back to the guy surnamed Nangong. ”
Such an answer that wanted to cover up made Xu Han and Ye Hongjian laugh dumbly, but they also fulfilled Miss Fang's wish and let her follow the two.
After returning to the mansion with large bags and small bags of various ingredients, Chu Qiuli and the others were still missing.
This made Miss Fang, who was already in a depressed mood, almost angry, she threw the ingredients in her hand on the wooden chair in the main hall, and muttered: "This group of people who have no conscience is estimated to have been fascinated by the old woman surnamed Nangong, and they can't think about it!"
Saying that, as if he still felt unrelieved, Fang Ziyu looked at Xu Han again at that time, and said seriously: "The surname Xu, you can't be like them, the red note is much better than the old woman, if you don't know what to do like them, I have to clean up yours!"
Before Xu Han could respond, Ye Hongjian on the side handed Xu Han a sly gaze with a smile, and the look in that look was clearly saying, "Did you hear that?" ”
Xu Han dared to refute, and hurriedly nodded: "Yes! Yes! Yes! Miss Fang is right, Xiaosheng has been taught." ”
Hearing this, the angry Fang Ziyu was a little better, she stretched out her hand and patted Xu Han's shoulder with a teachable appearance, and said with great relief: "This is my little Xuzi." “
After saying this, Fang Ziyu seemed to be in a much better mood, her eyes wandered away in the hall for a while, and finally landed on the pile of purchased ingredients, Fang Ziyu's eyes lit up, she rolled up her sleeves, and said: "Seeing that you are so good, Miss Ben will be merciful to cook a meal for you today!"
Of course, Miss Fang's face had a look of blessing, but Xu Han and Ye Hongjian couldn't help but change their faces when they heard this. They are naturally clear about Miss Fang's cooking skills, and the one that was baked for them in Linglong Pavilion at the beginning... The sweet potatoes that are also burnt are still vividly remembered today.
How dare Xu Han let her cook, he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "It's good if I'll come, I'll come." ”
If it was placed in normal times, Fang Ziyu would be happy, but today's Miss Fang is obviously more sensitive, she immediately raised her eyebrows when she saw Xu Han's appearance, and asked dissatisfiedly: "What's the matter?
Xu Han didn't dare to touch Miss Fang's brows at this time, he frowned and thought of a set of wording that would satisfy Fang Ziyu.
But at this moment, there was a sudden sound of quarrel in the direction of the backyard.
There lived more than 100 sword-wielding people who Nangong Jing threw to Xu Han.
The three of them, who realized that something was wrong, glanced at each other, and did not care about continuing to argue about who should cook this dinner, and walked quickly towards the place where the voice came.
......
"Could it be that those sword-wielding people are making trouble again?" Fang Ziyu, who was walking in the direction where the sound of the dispute came, said with a frown.
Xu Han naturally couldn't give her an answer to this question, this morning before Nangong Jing was ready to take action against those people in the rivers and lakes who lurked in Henghuang City, in order to prevent these "bright lines" planted in the sword bearers from making trouble and affecting her plan, Nangong Jing, who has always been thoughtful, sent Nangong Zhuo to explain the matter to Xu Han early, and Nangong Zhuo was also left here to monitor the sword wielders who lived in this mansion.
It's just that before this, Xu Han has shown his iron and bloody skills to these sword-wielding people more than once, it stands to reason that these sword-wielding people should be smart people, at least before some of the plans of Chixiaomen are fully launched, they should not make any more transgressions, after all, the tragic experience of the past is still vivid, Xu Han is the kind of ruthless person who can do his own tricks and will not spend more time talking to you.
Of course, Xu Han was also a little puzzled by the commotion coming from the sword-wielding man's residence at this moment.
He led Ye Hongjian and Fang Ziyu to that place quickly, but the scene in front of him made Xu Han's brows furrow.
I saw that Nangong Zhuo Li was holding back his face at the door, and he didn't know what to say to those sword-wielders, while many sword-wielding people gathered in a group, arguing with Nangong Zhuo excitedly. There is a way that two fists are hard to beat with four hands, and Nangong Zhuo obviously lost the upper hand in this battle of words with a huge difference in numbers.
However, soon someone noticed the arrival of Xu Han and others.
Xu Han's fierce reputation showed some effect at this moment, and the sword-wielding people who were still menacing just now quieted down after seeing Xu Han's figure, and lowered their heads one by one with a sad face, as if they were afraid that if they looked at it more, they would invite Xu Han's bloody revenge.
"What's wrong with you? Aren't you still chatting happily? Why didn't you talk as soon as someone Xu came?" Xu Hanke didn't care about what these people were thinking, he walked quickly in front of everyone, although his mouth was a joke-like tone, but the cold light bursting out of his squinted eyes made everyone present feel numb.
Naturally, in front of such a strong Xu Han, none of these sword-wielding people dared to respond to Xu Han's question, and there was a sudden silence on the field.
"What's the matter, aren't you welcome here?" Xu Han's squinting eyes were even more cold, and the expression on his face vividly interpreted the four words of flying and domineering.
"No, Brother Xu. It's just that Xu Han's questioning made Nangong Zhuo's face change on the side, and he hurriedly said: "It's not that you guys are making trouble, but they have lost some important things, so they came to find help." ”
Hearing this, Xu Han glanced at Nangong Zhuo deeply, but said in his heart: He was clearly here to help Nangong Zhuo break the siege, this Nangong Zhuo is good, but he helped these sword bearers to say good things, but this kind of behavior made Xu Han a little helpless, but he inexplicably thought of Song Yueming, who was like this in the past, and the two had something in common in many aspects.
However, this is obviously not the time to study this matter in detail, although Xu Han is dissatisfied with this Nangong Zhuo's eyesight, he still has to cooperate with the other party, he asked with a sinking face at that time: "Hmm? I lost something important, what is it?"
"I didn't know about it, but I didn't say anything when I had the heart to ask them, so there was a riot and disturbed Brother Xu. Nangong Zhuo said.
He is simple-minded, but he doesn't think about it. But Xu Han knew very well that since he had lost something important, he must be extremely anxious when he thought about it, but he was unwilling to say what it was, obviously the lost thing was either a coveted treasure or a stolen property that could not be revealed. Xu Han's mind sank, so he looked at those sword-wielding people at that time, and asked with heavy eyes: "Who lost something, and what is it Hurry up, Xu will do his best to find the lost property for you." ”
It's just that after these words came out, the faces of those sword-wielding people faded, and none of them responded to Xu Han's words.
"Alas, everyone, let's talk to Brother Xu, just now..."Nangong Zhuo saw that everyone was silent, but at that time he urged those sword-wielding people to come, with a posture of being enthusiastic and anxious.
"In fact, the loss is all small things that don't matter, how dare you bother Lord Xu and Nangong Gongzi, the little ones will retreat. So said the man who was in charge at that time.
Xu Han squinted at the man, and the momentum around him suddenly rose, and then asked in a meaningful tone, "Is that so?"
Under the oppression of Xu Han's momentum, the sword-wielding man's face suddenly turned pale, and he nodded again and again: "That's right, that's right." ”
"Hmm. Xu Han bowed slightly, and said, "Then in that case, what do you mean?"
When the leader heard this, he suddenly came to his senses, and he hurriedly said, "Let's leave here, let's leave." ”
Saying that, under the leadership of the sword-wielding man, the people who were still fierce turned around and left at this moment, and there were many people who fell to the ground in the process because they were too flustered, but he didn't care about such an embarrassing situation, stood up and continued to walk quickly, as if standing behind him was a beast of the wilderness that chose people to devour.
"Alas, what do you mean by this? What do you have to worry about your own brothers?" But Nangong Zhuo didn't seem to be able to see the embarrassment of these sword-wielders, and he kept waving his hand at those sword-wielding men at that time.
It wasn't until the figures of those sword-wielding men disappeared from everyone's eyes that Nangong Zhuo withdrew his hand and looked back at Xu Han and smiled.
At this time, Xu Han came back to his senses, it turned out that this Nangong Gongzi was not the Song Yueming who couldn't tell the difference between life and reason, this was clearly another Xu Han who was guided by the situation, knew how to advance and retreat, and was very good at pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger.
Thinking of this, Xu Han's eyes suddenly narrowed, he looked at Nangong Zhuo, who was full of harmless smiles on his face, and raised his eyebrows and didn't say much. The other party also responded to Xu Han with a faint smile, and said respectfully: "Thank you, Brother Xu." ”
......
Miss Fang's interest came and went quickly, and on the way back, she seemed to have forgotten who was the chef for dinner, so she kept silent about it. On the contrary, he was haunted by the strange situation of those sword-wielding people: "The surname is Xu, what do you say they have lost? Why do they make a fuss for a while, and then say that there is nothing at all? Could it be that they are deliberately finding fault?"
Regarding this question, Xu Han shrugged his shoulders helplessly: "Who knows? But I think they won't make themselves bored, and it won't do them any good to make trouble like this." ”
Fang Ziyu, who heard this, pondered for a while, but also felt that Xu Han was quite reasonable, and she asked again: "Then you mean that they really lost something?"
"Hmm. Xu Han nodded: "I guess what it is that we can't know, but it is extremely important to them, but I don't know what it is." ”
"Then you said that in our yard, there are so many masters of the Great Yan Realm, and the three of us didn't notice it, so who could steal it?" Fang Ziyu seemed to be turning into a fast catch at this moment, and began to ask inquiringly.
Xu Han shook his head again and said with a wry smile: "I don't know about this." ”
Things were stolen in his own courtyard, although it was a little strange, but after all, it was none of his business, and Xu Han didn't bother to investigate it in detail, after all, although he and this group of sword bearers were superficially subordinate relationships, but Xu Han was very clear, this group of sword bearers was a real hot potato, and if they didn't know when they would attack him, they suffered losses, no matter who did this, Xu Han was happy to see it, and he would never really arrest the real culprits for these people who would become his enemies sooner or later.
"Could it be Chu Qiuli?" However, Fang Ziyu didn't seem to feel Xu Han's thoughts, and she quickly listed the number one suspect in her heart.
Such suspicions are not unfounded, Chu Qiuli's kung fu of the gentleman on the beam is obvious to everyone, claiming that as long as the time is ripe, the immortals dare to hold their hands with each other, if he catches the attention of these sword-wielders, it is not impossible.
It's just that with Chu Qiuli's great temperament, if he really stole a treasure that could make these sword-wielding people obviously care about it, how could he hide it, I'm afraid that Xu Han and the others would have been found to show off proudly.
However, although the suspicion of Chu Qiuli had been ruled out in his heart, Xu Han said in his mouth: "Well, it's possible, why don't you wait for Brother Chu to come back, you go and ask him?"
Hearing this, Fang Ziyu's smug look on her face instantly froze, she turned her head and glanced away, and said with disdain: "Hmph! Miss Ben won't say half a word to these traitors!"
Fang Ziyu's childlike angry remarks naturally caused Xu Han and Ye Hongjian to laugh bitterly again, but they didn't put any evaluation on her remarks.
On the contrary, Fang Ziyu saw that the two of them were silent, and after being silent for a while, he came to Ye Hongjian's side and said, "Why don't you go and ask?"
How could Ye Hongjian have such a childlike heart as her, and shook her head with a smile.
Fang Ziyu, who was rejected, still didn't give up, and came to Xu Han again, and said, "Why don't you ask the guy surnamed Xu?" Anyway, you are very familiar with the guy surnamed Chu. ”
But Xu Han put on a righteous appearance at that time, and he said in a deep voice: "Chu Qiuli is a villain, he abandoned Ziyu and went to Nangong Jing for the sake of rewarding money, such a shameless person, I don't want to say more than half a word to him." ”
These words undoubtedly sealed all Fang Ziyu's retreat, the girl's face froze, and she suddenly didn't know what to say, so she could only end the topic unwillingly.
......
The three of them quickly returned to the main hall of the courtyard, and before stepping into the door, Xu Han seized the opportunity to put forward the idea of being the chef by him today, and Miss Fang, who was not depressed, obviously did not care about this matter, and did not make any rebuttal, which made Xu Han and Ye Hongjian secretly relieved.
And Ye Hongjian, who was in front of the three of them, stepped into the door for the first time, but at this moment, Ye Hongjian's face suddenly changed, a touch of evil appeared in her eyes, and the body that stepped into it also stopped, she looked into the room, her eyebrows sank, and she shouted: "Who are you?"
Xu Han and Fang Ziyu, who were walking behind them, had not seen the scene in the house clearly for a few days, but from Ye Hongjian's solemn attitude, it was not difficult to guess that there were some uninvited guests in the door, and they hurriedly stepped forward, but at this time, there was a voice that Xu Han and the two were very familiar with in the house.
"It seems that Xiao Xu Han's way of being a royal wife is very unsatisfactory, don't you even know who I am?"
The voice was very childish, like a warbler's cry.
But Xu Han, who heard this clearly, was shocked in his heart, and his steps were a little faster, as if he was afraid of something.
He quickly rushed to the house, and didn't care about the three-seven-twenty-one, first stopped Ye Hongjian, who had an ugly face, and then turned his head to look at the house.
But I saw that on the Taishi chair in the middle of the door, a purple-eyed girl who looked no more than fifteen or sixteen years old was dangling her feet and looking at Xu Han with a smile.
"Second Master. Xu Han had already heard the identity of the person from that voice, and it was not strange about this, but hurriedly arched his hand respectfully towards the girl who looked a few years younger than him, and called out in his mouth.
Ye Hongjian, who was still puzzled on the side, suddenly came back to his senses when he heard this.
"Old witch!" But at this stall, Fang Ziyu, who followed Xu Han into the door, let out an exclamation.
It's just that as soon as these words came out, Miss Fang knew that she had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly covered her mouth, but it was too late. The purple-eyed girl's face changed, and her body flashed and appeared straight in front of Fang Ziyu.
Immediately, she looked at Fang Ziyu with deep eyes, and the anger on her face was unconcealed.
And Miss Fang, who has never been afraid of heaven and earth, had a bitter face at that time, her eyes glanced away, and she said with a smile: "Haha, the weather is really good today... Ah!!!h
But at that time, the purple-eyed girl didn't wait for Fang Ziyu to finish saying this, so she stretched out her hand and grabbed Fang Ziyu's ear....
So Miss Fang's sigh turned into a high-pitched cry of pain in the end...
