Long Xiang jumped off the railing on the second floor with Yan Xu in his arms and landed on the ground, he tightly protected Yan Xu on his chest, and walked towards a place similar to the side door.

Xunfang Building has two small doors, a small door is a small door near the inner courtyard, most of the distinguished guests who want to hide their identities will enter through the small door. The other is a courtyard near where the lower people live, and if it is vegetables or rancid water, it will enter and exit from there. The direction that Long Xiang walked was this small door where distinguished guests often came and went, even if he met the young lady inside, or the distinguished guests who came, he would not pass it out.

Long Xiang walked through a few courtyards, turned a few corners, and was able to reach the small gate safely. When passing by the door of a courtyard that was quiet, without any lights, only moonlight, Long Xiao could feel that Yan Xu on his chest suddenly tugged at his clothes.

Long Xiang paused, and in the direction of a little finger stretched out from his outer robe, Long Xiang actually saw that in front of the porch aisle, under the moonlight, there was an inexplicable black shadow, quickly rushing in from the porch aisle and into the courtyard. Obviously, there is no shelter around its body, and this shadow that appears out of thin air is very suspicious.

Long Xiang paused, and it immediately dawned in his heart that this shadow might be the shadow that attacked the white rhino, or it could be Xixuan's Yin soldier.

Long Xiang turned his head to look at the small door not far away, and the shadow that was close to Chi Qi, Yan Xu in his arms, how should he choose?

After only a few seconds of hesitation, Long Xiang stepped into the quiet, seemingly uninhabited courtyard.

The reason why he did this was very simple, that is, he was the emperor of Taiping, and he didn't think much about the rest.

After he stepped into the courtyard with Yan Xu in his arms, he hid by the stone wall in front of the courtyard, he leaned against the wall, and his peripheral vision saw the shadow, forming a thick black shadow, in the middle of the courtyard, motionless, as if waiting for something.

The area around the yard is occasionally covered with cobwebs and dust, which shows that this yard is rarely visited.

From the pattern of the wooden lattice window, Long Xiang can faintly see the abandoned furniture inside, here, maybe a warehouse or something.

This dark shadow is here, is it someone you want to wait for?

Long Xiang waited quietly, he was not afraid of Xixuan's Yin soldiers. Since he was a child, he knew that Xixuan's Yin soldiers could devour people's flesh, and the previous Fuzhou incident had such a thing, and he knew that the reason why Xixuan did not dare to invade Taiping was that in addition to the Yan clan of Taiping, and the Zhuge army guarding the border of Eastern Xinjiang, it was the everlasting light of Taiping.

Long Xiang touched his chest, there was a necklace in it, a necklace that he had carried since he was a child, a necklace that he had been carrying since the death of his mother, and on the top of the necklace was a bead, emitting a faint blue light. This bead, called the Soul Guarding Bead, as the name suggests, is to protect your soul from foreign objects.

Long Xiang lowered his head and looked at Yan Xu with bright eyes on his little head under his robe. Long Xiang couldn't help but feel a little guilty in his heart.

Maybe it's because of his 20-year-old education that he has to give everything for Taiping, because he is the emperor of Taiping. So at this critical time, he brought Yan Xu to such a dangerous place.

Long Xiang couldn't help but use one hand to take off the necklace on his chest, which had accompanied him for more than ten years, and the light blue beads were in the dark night

With a faint light, he reached out and hung it on Yan Xu's neck.

The moonlight behind him, the darkness in front of him, in front of this bead, Yan Xu under the robe, his eyes seemed even deeper. His face was lit up by the bright light of this bead, and he looked at Long Xiang in front of him, quietly. At this moment, Long Xiang's eyes were attracted by Yan Xu.

The blue light shone through the mask, shining on her cream-like skin. Long Xiang shook his head for a few seconds, and then glanced at his face, pretending to observe the dark shadow in the courtyard, but secretly looked at Yan Xu, who was curiously looking at the necklace around his neck. If Yan Xu grew up, what would he look like? Long Xiang thought secretly in his heart.

It was also under the bright moon, not far from the small door, and Le'er was leading Xu Qingruo towards the small door.

"Miss, you see, how beautiful the weather is. Le'er looked at the moon in the sky and said with a smile.

"Yes, Le'er, you go to the front door and so on. Xu Qingruo, with the support of Le'er, walked to the vicinity of the small door.

"What about Miss?" Le'er looked at the courtyard around the small door, most of them were lit, Le'er really didn't understand, where Miss was going for a walk, if she went further, it was a warehouse courtyard where there were not many people in normal times, and Miss would definitely not go over.

"I'll just go around and walk around, and I'll naturally come back here to look for you, and you'll just wait for me here. Xu Qingruo looked at the stone stool about ten steps away from the small door and said.

"Well, be careful, young lady. Le'er instructed.

Xu Qingruo nodded and walked to the side.

Originally, Xu Qingruo only walked to the courtyard with the lights on to see the flowers and plants that were planted very well along the way. After seeing the flowers and trees, the figure that flashed next to the courtyard was a little like Long Xiang.

Xu Qingruo's eyes rolled, why did Long Xiang appear here? Xu Qingruo, who was a little curious, raised his steps and followed.

Xu Qingruo walked quietly, followed Long Xiang's back, and walked into the old warehouse that Le Le thought would not enter.

The warehouse itself is a yard, but it is too remote and no one lives in it, and after a long time, it has grown cobwebs, which are used to pile up some sundries that are not used by others.

After Xu Qingruo walked into the porch, he saw Long Xiang enter from behind the porch wall on the left, Xu Qingruo thought for a while, raised his steps, and walked in from the other side.

After passing this wall, there is a courtyard. Xu Qingruo clearly saw the black, bubbling shadow in the courtyard by the moonlight.

Xu Qingruo frowned slightly, she naturally knew in her heart what this was, it must be Xu Liuhai of the Xu family who had broken into her room before.

What is he doing here, and what is he trying to do? The corner of Xu Qingruo's eyes glanced at the other side, it seemed that Long Xiang was also secretly observing, if Xu Liuhai let Long Xiang discover his identity, then. If the corners of Xu Qingruo's mouth pulled up a cold smile, then he couldn't blame himself for being ruthless.

After having a plan, Xu Qingruo leaned against the wall, carefully observed, and waited for what would happen next.

Long Xiang on the other side also waited quietly, not noticing at all, Xu Qingruo was also present. He leaned against the wall, relying only on his peripheral vision to occasionally take in the situation in the lower courtyard.

After a while, a voice came from the courtyard where there were no people.

That's right, it's the voice of the person who speaks, which is extremely low, but Long Xiang can accurately capture every word of their conversation.

"It's a shame that I almost took a very strong body. It's a pity that my qi is all gone, and I don't have any more qi to take it again. “

"You're just too dissatisfied, like me, just take a simple one. You're in Xunfang Building, did you find it?"

"Found it. “

"Where? with the woman?"

"No, at another woman's place, there is a ledger with the name and amount of each buyer written in it. “

"If you find it, you can steal it quickly. As long as it's not in the hands of that woman, it's all easy. “

"Steal it?"

"Yes, as long as we steal it, we can make it a bargaining chip with that woman, and even force her to speed up our plan, and now she has been staying in Fuzhou and doing nothing, which really worries the emperor and the elders. “

"Yes, steal it. “

"I'll leave this matter to you, and I should go, otherwise it will be over if I am caught by that woman. “

When Long Xiang heard this, he ventured and looked at it with his peripheral vision, and found a man in a cloth robe, who was climbing the wall, his posture was very strange, walking, all twisting and twisting, and the head hanging around his neck was weakly towering, following the unstable footsteps, swaying from side to side. It is very likely that the person was robbed of his body.

A dark shadow lingering in the courtyard was rapidly approaching the wall where Long Xiang was hiding. Fortunately, the black shadow climbed up the wall in front of him, followed the wall, climbed over the wall, landed in the open space outside the courtyard, quickly bypassed the grass, and then hid in the darkness.

Long Xiang then hugged Yan Xu in his arms, and the sound of people's conversation faintly came from the small door, and Long Xiang did not hesitate, so he climbed over the wall and climbed out of the courtyard.

Outside the courtyard here is an uninhabited alley, and compared to the courtyard outside, you won't meet anyone when you turn it out.

Xu Qingruo saw Xu Qingruo who disappeared into the darkness, and smiled faintly, he should be glad that the people of the Xu family didn't take themselves in their eyes, and called that woman who came and went, otherwise, he might really do it halfway.

At this time, Xu Qingruo's mood was complicated. Seeing Long Xiang meant that he was not confused by the red beads and walked out of Suiyuan safely, but today's account book made Long Xiang listen to it. Presumably, Long Xiang's next plan will be to seize the ledger. However, it doesn't have much impact on himself, at most, it's just to bring out Ye Siyuan, and it's time for him to return to Xixuan.

Xu Qingruo looked at the black shadow that was struggling under his feet. It turned out that when the black shadow climbed to the wall, Xu Qingruo, who had words in his mouth, grabbed the black shadow, and the black shadow that went away was the shadow at Xu Qingruo's own feet.

If you have the heart and let Long Xiang find the account book, this shadow of Xu Liuhai will not be left behind.

Xu Qingruo looked sympathetically at the black shadow that was still struggling desperately and wanted to get rid of, and muttered to himself: "It's a pity." After saying that, he stomped down with his feet mercilessly.

With Xu Qingruo's stepping, at that moment, the black shadow instantly changed into a black gas, and then disappeared between heaven and earth.

Xu Qingruo flicked his sleeve and walked towards the voice coming from the small door.

Under the moonlight, there was no shadow at Xu Qingruo's feet.

It's just that no one found out.
