Chapter 101: The Price of Being Late

When Shangguan Li looked up, she saw a stunning color that was more exaggerated than the words in the book in her hand.

"What is the county lord doing when he looks at the night, is it possible that he can't recognize me after changing his mask?"

Xuanyuan Ye's voice carried some kind of demagogic power.

"I almost didn't recognize it."

Shangguan Li replied expressionlessly.

She told a little lie, Xuanyuan Ye's aura and temperament are too outstanding, and if he throws it into a million people, he may be the most dazzling one.

"Time?"

Xuanyuan Ye nodded.

Shangguan Li calculated in his heart, the current time should be close to twelve o'clock in the evening, which is within the expected range.

"I'm going to wronged the county lord to climb the wall with the night."

Xuanyuan Ye bent the corners of his mouth, and the arc was beautiful.

This is not a big deal, in her past and present lives combined, she has climbed more walls than ordinary people have walked.

Xuanyuan Ye saw that she was fine, turned around and totoed slightly, and followed the window to the roof of the reed courtyard.

Shangguan Li's eyes narrowed slightly, although he had long expected Xuanyuan's elusive skills, he was still a little surprised to see this hand suddenly.

This is called light work, right?

Shangguan Li suddenly felt a little envious.

Grabbed the wooden eaves on the window with one hand, borrowed a little force, and jumped up easily.

But in the process, a new question suddenly surfaced in Shangguan Li's mind.

Is it necessary for Xuanyuan to call her in person?

Suspicious, she fell to the roof, and before she could fully stand still, she heard Xuanyuan Ye ask.

"Is the injury on the county lord's hand healed?"

Shangguan Li was stunned for a moment, and then reacted that he saw that he had used his left hand.

Of course, the real fracture will not be cured for a few days, but her situation is under her own control, and the injury is not serious.

The second is that the medicine she used is good enough, so this small injury does not affect her movements, but there is still some distance before she fully recovers.

However, Shangguan Li didn't explain so much to Xuanyuan Ye, just nodded.

Xuanyuan Ye raised an eyebrow, her gaze swept over the strangely shaped bag behind her, and without saying anything more, she turned around and disappeared into the night.

Shangguan Li followed closely behind him, and gradually she found that Xuanyuan Ye was not only fast, but also very strange, and occasionally encountered a shadow as if she was about to melt into it.

Silent and dangerous.

Shangguan Li remained silent, but there were doubts in his heart.

Isn't this man a general, his kung fu is good and fast, and these are acceptable, but what is the matter with this kind of body style that is exactly the same as that of a professional killer?

Could it be that this legendary general of the Great Zhou Dynasty is still part-time and kills people in the dark?

Shangguan Li felt a little mysterious.

But no matter what she thought in her heart, the footsteps did not fall.

I saw Xuanyuan tossing and turning all over the city, as fast as a wandering ghost.

After a few moments, Regulus's speed slowed down, and slowly, he stopped on the roof of a house.

Shangguan Li also stopped, and before he had time to observe the surrounding situation, Xuanyuan Ye spoke again.

"The county lord is really hidden."

"Each other, each other."

Shangguan Li replied lightly.

Then she looked to the side, this place was already close to the edge of the city wall, based on Shangguan Li's memory of the way to come, this should be near the east city gate.

But there was no light around, and there was no one, just the two of them were clubbed on the roof like Batman, and the atmosphere was a little delicate for a while.

"County Lord."

"What?"

"This."

He took something out of his arms and threw it over, Shangguan Li took it, it was a bronze mask, and the position of the cheekbone was carved into a lifelike unknown flower.

"People in the black market, regardless of their status, only talk about financial resources. So there are a lot of outlaws in it, and although the county lord may not mind, it's always good to have less trouble. ”

Shangguan Li thinks what he said makes sense, but why is this mask so bells and whistles?

Seeing her doubts, Xuanyuan turned sideways, and the curvature of the smile on the corner of his mouth did not change in the slightest.

"In a hurry, I can only find this one."

In the past, when he was wearing a mask, Shangguan Li didn't realize it, but now that she can see half of his face, she feels more and more that the smile on Xuanyuan Ye's face seems to be painted, fake and fake, say it's good-looking, it's really good-looking.

Shangguan Li tiredly put on the mask he gave him, and then said.

"The general doesn't have to be so intimate, if you want to hide your true appearance, there are many ways."

"Oh, like human skins, masks?"

Xuanyuan Ye's tone was careless, but the words he said made the vigilance in Shangguan Li's heart twist.

"The general is really a person who can see everywhere and listen to all directions."

"Many people know about this, but it's not a bad night."

Hearing this, Shangguan Li wanted to laugh.

Even if everyone knows about Taichenyuan that time, how many people know that she secretly brought the mask back?

Didn't Xuanyuan Ye know that the mask was on her?

But she only took out the mask twice after she brought it back, and no matter which time he found the clue, it was already powerful enough.

"The general said yes."

Shangguan Li sneered.

Just when the two were chatting here and there, there was finally movement in the darkness.

To the right of the building beneath their feet was a narrow alley, and beyond the alley was a moat that was ten meters wide.

A glittering cold light appeared on the river, and the slight sound of paddling and the wind rustled.

The fluorescent light approached, and Shangguan Li saw that it was a small boat, and at the bow stood a person who was also wearing a mask, dressed in white like a floating ghost, and the only light source on the river was the lamp he was carrying.

Slowly, the boat stopped next to the alley, and the man with the lantern looked up at them, presumably waiting for them to get on board.

Shangguan Li was about to jump, but was stopped by Xuanyuan Ye with one hand.

When she turned around, she saw that Xuanyuan's eyes were deeper and colder than the lamp that seemed to come from the netherworld.

Shangguan Li paused, but still took a step back and stopped at the position next to Xuanyuan Ye.

The people below probably didn't expect this kind of unfolding, and opened their mouths leisurely.

"Don't miss the hour, two guests."

The voice was hoarse and had a strange sense of ambiguity, and Shangguan Li didn't even hear whether this person was a man or a woman for a while.

The curvature of the corners of Xuanyuan Ye's mouth deepened a little.

"At midnight, swim across the Yellow Spring. It's your Excellency who is late. ”

The people below were stunned for a moment, and then spoke again.

"Do guests want to give up such a grand event as collecting firewood because of this ridiculous time difference?"

Xuanyuan Ye laughed "heh", but turned his head to look at Shangguan Li beside him, and said a word in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
