Chapter Twenty-Four: The Dead in the City

The young man in front of him was dressed in coarse linen clothes, his complexion was dark, the bridge of his nose was high, a row of small white teeth was showing when he grinned, his black hair was tufted up, and a pair of bright eyes glistened under his thick eyebrows.

He was slightly thin but strong, with bulging muscles on his bare arms.

Lin Yanxi reacted quickly, plucked the hairpin from his head and pointed at him, and asked, "What do you want to do?" ”

Yan Yue hurriedly waved her hand and tried her best to explain: "Little master, it's me, don't get excited and hurt yourself." ”

Master? What the heck!

Seeing that her expression eased slightly, he quickly straightened the hem of his clothes, deliberately played handsome, and stroked the broken hair on his forehead and said, "My name is Yanyue, don't you remember me?" I'll be very sad, little master. ”

His bright eyes dimmed instantly, and she stared at his dark and handsome face, as if it were a little familiar, and the name was also familiar.

She took out an earring from her clothes, and the jade earrings were dotted with colorful gemstones, which were gorgeous and vulgar, and they were priceless at first glance.

"Oh, you're, you're the boy who sold your life to bury your brother?"

Lin Yanxi suddenly realized that she and Lin Yuan confronted each other in front of the house, and casually threw the earrings to a young man kneeling on the corner of the street.

It turned out to be him.

Yan Yue took two steps forward and wanted to get close to Lin Yanxi and said, "Yes, you bought me, so you are naturally my master." ”

She took two wary steps back, distancing herself from him again.

"Little master, don't you want to be wanton?" His eyes flashed with a hint of injury, and his outstretched palms shrank slightly.

Lin Yanxi felt that he was like a puppy abandoned by his owner on a street corner, and his heart softened.

The young man's emotions came and went quickly, he shrugged the tip of his nose, Lin Yanxi's room had a sweet fragrance of a girl, mixed with the tempting aroma of a few wisps of snacks.

She understood the expression of the moon, chuckled, pointed to the dim sum on the table and said, "Eat if you want." ”

Hey, why is this moon so familiar?

Lin Yanxi replied carefully, silently reciting his name in his heart.

Wanton Moon, Rag Moon, Rag Moon General?

!!!

She suddenly thought that in her previous life, there was a young and promising general in Nanmin, who had gone from a nobody to a general in only three years.

It is also because this general of the moon has won many battles for Shen Qingyun and stabilized the crown prince's throne.

Lin Yanxi looked at the young man who was gobbling up snacks, and raised her eyebrows, then she would definitely not be able to let the moon be used by the prince in this life.

She sat down around the table with him, poured him a cup of tea and said, "Eat slowly, I'll let the kitchen make it for you if you can't get enough." ”

The dark eyes of the moon looked at Lin Yanxi, and after a while, tears overflowed, and he clumsily rubbed his hand stained with dim sum residue on his body, and hugged Lin Yanxi.

He whimpered: "Little master, you are so good to me, my brother and I live on the streets, we are bullied every day, and no one gives us food." ”

Thinking of his little brother, he was silent for a while, and muttered, "If only my little brother could eat such delicious dim sum." ”

Lin Yanxi tried to comfort him, caressing his hair, like touching a puppy.

This is an opportunity to brush up on the favor of the general in front of the general.

"In the future, you won't be hungry anymore, follow me, and no one will dare to bully you anymore."

Yanyue wiped away her tears and said, "Does the little master mean that I can stay here?" ”

Lin Yanxi pondered: "You can stay in the mansion for the time being, but I see that you have the talent to be a general, and you need to cultivate it well." ”

Yan Yue was puzzled: "Will the prime minister? ”

"You don't care about this, anyway, Miss Ben thinks you have a very promising future, follow me and mix well."

"Little Master ......"

"Stop, stop, we are not a cult organization, the master of the world every day, you just call me the second miss. Also, you are not allowed to enter my yard without my permission. ”

Of course she can't let him come in casually, she still doesn't believe in Yanyue yet, in case he still defects to Shen Qingyun in the future, and tells Shen Muzhou about coming to her room every night, wouldn't it cause trouble.

Besides, her Lin Yanxi's boudoir is not something that can be entered casually!

After Lin Yanxi took the next person to live and settled down, he trotted all the way back to the courtyard.

I was afraid that when Shen Muzhou came, he would find out that she was not there, and there would be complications.

She snapped open the door, and the room was empty, and there was no one.

Hmph, it's best not to come!

---

In the next few days, Lin Yanxi was confined to the courtyard by Jiang Wan and was not allowed to move around casually.

Recently, whenever she had free time, she would stuff herself in the room and study the ancient book of talismans repeatedly, and she also practiced it repeatedly, but there was no improvement.

It seems that without the soul ring, she is really not the material of the talisman.

In addition to practicing by herself, she will also stare at the moon every morning to practice physical fitness, and later use it in the military camp.

"Oh, miss, how long will it take?"

This Lin Yanxi couldn't go out, so he practiced in the courtyard.

At this time, the moon was holding a large water tank, with three layers of stone bricks stacked on top of her arms stretched out, and a horse under her feet.

Lin Yanxi sat lazily on the swing chair in the yard, the chestnuts helped her shake the fan, and the sugar fried to her mouth A crystal clear little purple grape.

She lifted her eyes impatiently and glanced at Yan Yue and said solemnly: "Keep your feet steady, and if you tremble again, you will practice for an hour." ”

"Alas, it's not that Miss Ben doesn't feel sorry for you, you have a good physique, so you can be a general!"

Chestnuts and Sugar Fried sneered when they heard this, and Sugar Fried quipped: "If you can be a general, then I can be a noble lady." ”

Yanyue regained her strength, her waist straightened, her feet tried to maintain stability, and she said unconvinced: "The eldest lady said that I can be a general, then I can do it!" ”

Lin Yanxi nodded with satisfaction as a sign of encouragement.

After another half an hour passed, she circled around the moon and said, "The training has been good in the past two days, let's go, I'll take you around the street." ”

She remembered that in her previous life, she was famous for fighting her way out of the encirclement with a wide sword, and she was given the opportunity to be promoted because of this.

It's time to take him to pick up a weapon to pick up.

The moon is used to being scattered, and I am bored for several days without leaving home in this Taifu Mansion, and I am so happy to hear that I can go out, so I follow behind Lin Yanxi.

Chestnut chased after him, pulled Lin Yanxi's cuffs and said, "Miss, don't run around and make Mrs. angry." ”

"It's okay, my father and mother are busy with Lin Shibai's affairs, and they don't have time to take care of me."

As soon as Lin Shibai returned home, he made a fuss about asking for the front yard, and wanted Zhao Yinyin to enter the family tree, which made Lin Ze angry.

Lin Yanxi slipped out of the dog hole with the moon, and the street was full of dazzling, and the most fragrant was the Wanjia restaurant on this street.

Huanyue was carrying a bunch of things in her hand and followed behind Lin Yanxi happily.

"Let's go, I'll take you to the best restaurant in the capital."

The two entered the Wanjia restaurant and picked a location upstairs, so that they could see everything that happened on the street at a glance.

"Wow, miss, that's too much."

Yan Yue looked at the table of delicacies and swallowed her saliva.

Lin Yanxi rubbed his hair and said, "Eat, eat more to become a general." ”

"What a coincidence, Sister Xi'er."

The door of the private room on the second floor opened, and Luo Jingxin walked out slowly from inside.

She wore a white dress to mop the floor, the skirt was outlined with gold threads to create a beautiful pattern, emitting colorful streamers in the sunlight, and the beads on her hair bun were extremely exquisite, with a few strings of white pearls hanging on both sides of her sideburns.

Before Lin Yanxi's hand was withdrawn from Yanyue's hair, as soon as she wanted to get up to say hello, she saw Shen Muzhou walking out of the private room and standing behind Luo Jingxin, he glanced at Yanyue, and his eyes fell on Lin Yanxi's hand again.

His eyes were cold, suppressed with faint displeasure.

Lin Yanxi withdrew her hand and got up a little embarrassed, she didn't understand what Shen Muzhou had to stare at her?

He clearly said that he and Luo Jingxin were not familiar with each other, and sat in a private room to eat, is this called unfamiliarity?

No wonder he hasn't sneaked into Taifu's Mansion in the past few days, it turned out to be used to accompany Luo Jingxin, but he didn't have time.

Thinking of this, she glanced at Shen Muzhou fiercely.

"Lord Chaoyang." Lin Yanxi got up and saluted.

Luo Jingxin was lined with a more ethereal temperament by this white dress, and she stepped forward to sit beside Lin Yanxi enthusiastically and said: "Alas, eating with Muzhou is really boring, if Sister Xi'er doesn't mind, why don't you accompany me and eat together." ”

Before Yan Xi could answer, Shen Muzhou sat opposite Lin Yanxi with a cold face.

It's not easy for her to refuse, not to mention that she already has a good impression of Luo Jingxin, but she was a little embarrassed at the hairpin meeting that day.

Luo Jingxin seemed to see what she was thinking, and said bluntly: "I had some misunderstanding with Muzhou that day, and he lost his temper with me, but it was difficult to sandwich you in the middle. ”

"I was sad for a while, and I said something heavy to my sister, are you still angry with my sister?"

Lin Yanxi glanced at Shen Muzhou, his expression was as indifferent as usual, and he did not respond to Luo Jingxin's words.

So he would appear at the hairpin meeting that day and take her away, saying that he was not familiar with the county lord of Chaoyang and something like that, but he was just losing his temper with Luo Jingxin.

He defended her several times, not only to let her get rid of the cold disease, but also to anger Luo Jingxin.

The fact that they haven't shown up these days is because the two have reconciled, and when you think about it, many things have answers.

Her voice was soft, and she hid a hint of strangeness and said, "I'm not angry, I'm still worried that you will be estranged from me." ”

Luo Jingxin hid his face and smiled when he heard this: "No matter what my relationship with Muzhou is, I really like you as a little girl, smart and clever, and I also have a sister at home, and her temperament is not as pleasing as Xi'er." ”

"Having said that, I prepared a carriage for you that day but couldn't help you, if you accept the prince's hairpin, I will feel guilty, but fortunately the boat saved you."

Lin Yanxi felt awkward in his heart, and his tone of voice was also a little brutal: "Hmph, who wants him to save it." ”

Luo Jingxin smiled and said: "Yes, Xi'er is smart and intelligent, and she will definitely be able to turn evil into good fortune." This dish is also on board, let's stop talking, Xi'er, you eat more, look at your thinness. ”

She first took a piece of roast goose from the plate and put it on Shen Muzhou's plate and said, "Muzhou, this is what you like to eat." ”

Shen Muzhou stared at Luo Jingxin's gaze for a while, and said in a low voice, "Thank you." ”

Lin Yanxi pursed his lips, these two people were affectionate.

She also learned from Luo Jingxin's dignified and generous appearance, and put a pair of chopsticks and things in the Wanyue bowl, but this Yanyue only cared about eating, and she couldn't put anything else in the bowl.

She glared at the moon and put it into her bowl in a huff.

A group of people gathered on the street downstairs, and the conversation reached the second floor.

"Dead again?"

"This is the third corpse! And I heard that the death is the same. ”
