Wind Chimes Mansion, arrived.

Compared with the previous mansions, the Wind Chime Mansion is particularly distinctive, and compared to those mansions, this Wind Chime Mansion has a unique foreign style.

The word "wind chime" actually refers to the rhythm.

Here, even ordinary people know some rhythm, and rhythm has become the main theme here.

The four-rank puppets each held a horse in their left and right hands, Xu Bai and Ye Zi walked on foot, Ye Zi leaned on Xu Bai's side and held Xu Bai's hand.

Xu Bai looked at the scenery on both sides of the street and sighed secretly, the style here is slightly different.

On both sides of the surrounding streets, in addition to selling some daily things, all kinds of vendors are more than all kinds of musical instruments, which have become the mainstream here, and every ordinary person looks like they have a different atmosphere.

As the saying goes, one side of the water and soil raises one side of the people, and even the temperament of the people in the Wind Chime Mansion is very in line with the way of music.

If it is in some barbarian land, the people must be strong, and in this Fengchime Mansion, the temperament is like a water town.

After returning to the Wind Chime Mansion, Ye Zi became more comfortable, after all, he was born and raised here, even if he didn't go out a few steps due to the Ye family, he still had a sense of homecoming.

"Childe, why don't you just live in the Ye family?" Ye Zi's slender thighs walked happily, turned around, leaned on Xu Bai's shoulder and said, "You are a distinguished guest of the Ye family, even if you live in the Ye family, they will only be happy." ”

Xu Bai thought about it and nodded in agreement.

If he is troublesome, he can go directly to the inn to live, but this time he can go to the Ye family to stay for a few days, and the purpose is naturally for the sake of the book about the divine soul, after all, this thing is very important to him.

The shortage of divine souls must be made up as soon as possible, otherwise it will change later, after all, he can't figure out whether the next enemy will be strong in this regard.

When Ye Zi heard this, his heart was overjoyed, he put his hands around Xu Bai's arm, and leaned up: "Childe is so good." ”

Xu Bai moved his arm, and Ye Zi immediately reacted, his face slightly red.

"Lead the way."

He knew very well what Ye Zi was thinking about.

This is similar to returning home, except that this is another version of homecoming.

At the beginning, when the Ye family decided to give Ye Zi to him, Ye Zi was extremely opposed, and in the middle, the other women of the Ye family also gloated about her, this is on the way here, Ye Zi said.

At that time, it was a choice in itself, and many women were unwilling, after all, they had also heard rumors about Xu Bai on the rivers and lakes, who was willing to serve a moody person?

But in the end, only Ye Zi was chosen.

The rest of the family was naturally gloating, and some were even sneering.

This is a very normal thing, not every family is united, and most of the Ye family are women.

As the saying goes, three women in one play, there are many women in the Ye family, and the play is also very special.

Ye Zida's careful thinking naturally wanted to go back and show the people of the Ye family, so that those people of the Ye family could understand that Xu Bai was not what was said in the rivers and lakes, on the contrary, he was still a particularly gentle person.

In this regard, Xu Bai relied on Ye Zi.

Anyway, if you want to take the progress bar of the divine soul by the way, it just happens to satisfy Ye Zi's mentality, why not?

Ye Zi put his arm around Xu Bai and led the way in front of him.

Xu Bai also enjoyed it, after all, when a particularly spectacular woman jumped around her arms, her arms were very comfortable.

In this way, the two walked through various streets, and finally came to a mansion that looked quite luxurious.

On the plaque, there are two words written on the iron painting silver hook - Ye family.

The family at the door, who was guarding carefully at the moment, suddenly saw someone coming and subconsciously looked over.

Immediately afterwards, the family was slightly stunned, and soon turned around and pushed open the door, walking inside, shouting as he went.

"Come on, Ye Zi is back, come on!"

The sound was earth-shattering, which made Xu Bai very embarrassed.

"Childe, don't mind, after all, Ye Zi escaped at the beginning." Ye Zi said slightly apologetically.

After a while, a group of family members walked out of it and surrounded Xu Bai, and at the same time, a large number of women walked out.

"Ye Zi, you still dare to go back to the family, aren't you afraid of being severely punished?" One of the women looked quite young, and there was a beautiful mole the size of a grain of rice in the corner of her eye, which added charm to her beautiful face, "The head of the house is on the way here, I advise you not to have other thoughts." ”

When Ye Zi saw this scene, he didn't panic, he just leaned his head on Xu Bai's shoulder and didn't say a word.

Her action naturally attracted everyone's attention, and Qi Qi set her eyes on Xu Bai.

"Get out of the way." Xu Bai said.

As soon as this sentence came out, he thought that these people would get out of the way, after all, he didn't come here to do anything.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, the woman in the lead showed disdain.

"Are you the wild man she's looking for out there? I'm telling you, you're in for a big deal. The leading woman said coldly: "Ye Zi is the woman of Lord Xu Baixu, you dare to seduce his woman, I don't think you want to live, right?" ”

Xu Bai: "......"

Anyway, his popularity is not very high, why can't this group of people recognize him?

Kong Xuan before recognized him at a glance, could it be that there is a level here?

Or is my appearance too outstanding, so I hide my identity?

Xu Bai touched his face.

Although this is true, it is not so outstanding.

Ye Zi leaned into Xu Bai's ear, and because of his height, he tried his best to raise his white neck, and whispered: "Son, all the distinguished guests of the Ye family will not let the women of the Ye family see their faces, so as to avoid seeing extremely outstanding ones, which will cause the women of the Ye family to compete." ”

In one sentence, he explained to Xu Bai very thoroughly.

Good guy, even if it is the Ye family, which regards family members as commodities, it is necessary to look at the face, these days, the appearance is really justice.

If you think about it, it's true.

If you look at it first, you will naturally compete for it when you encounter outstanding, after all, who wants you to commit yourself to an ugly one?

And when it comes to the ugly, that's another way of saying it.

"If I had been known by you in advance, would I have been fought over by you?" Xu Bai touched his chin and said extremely narcissistically.

Ye Zi sneered and said softly: "If you see it in advance, Ye Zi will die or live, and you will follow your son." ”

A woman with a sweet mouth will make a man feel very face-saving.

A woman with a sweet mouth will also make a man feel very inside.

There are two ways to say that the mouth is sweet, one is that it speaks well, and the other is it......

When the leading woman saw that these two people were not only not afraid of her, but flirted in front of her, she couldn't help frowning.

The Ye family also has a unique way in selecting people, and these women chased out have their own styles.

There are tall, some short, some delicate, some tall, and even big and some small.

"Ye Yu, I know that you have climbed the door of the Kong family, but do you know that this son next to me, even the Kong family, has to taboo him for three points." Ye Zi made a particularly exaggerated expression and covered his mouth with his hand: "You shouldn't know Xu Bai." ”

Xu Bai?

Xu Bai!

As soon as this sentence came out, not only this group of women, but even the surrounding family members all took a step back, making Xu Bai look like a flood beast.

In fact, Xu Bai is now very famous in the rivers and lakes, of course, it is a notoriety.

What a ruthless, what moody, and even some people say that he likes to torture people the most, and these various rumors are spreading all over the world.

In fact, the various rumors in this are also quite in line with Xu Bai's design, after all, as his enemy, he has indeed experienced them all.

"Is it really Lord Xu?" Ye Yu quickly came back to his senses and said in disbelief: "Are you okay?" ”

As soon as this sentence came out, she knew that she was wrong, and if she said this sentence in front of Lord Xu, wouldn't she not give Lord Xu face?

"Not only is it okay, but Childe is not like what is rumored, on the contrary, he is an extremely gentle person." Ye Zi leaned on Xu Bai's shoulder, looking happy.

Ye Yu's expression became extremely complicated, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

At this moment, there was another sound of footsteps in the mansion, and then a middle-aged woman walked out of it.

The middle-aged woman was gorgeously dressed and had a hosta in her hair, which made her look extremely noble.

In fact, he is already too young, but his figure and temperament have not diminished for a long time, if it is not for the makeup on his face and the style of his hair that are a little old, he is a young beauty if he changes his style casually.

Presumably, if such an aunt is placed in her previous life, there must be a bunch of people who eat soft rice.

It's not that you can't eat soft rice, but whether soft rice is good or not?

Who wouldn't want to eat fragrant and delicious soft rice?

"Lord Xu is here, and the humble house is shining." After the middle-aged woman Ye family head walked out, she saluted Xu Bai, and her figure was elegant and mature: "It's windy outside, how about Lord Xu go inside?" ”

As soon as this sentence came out, Xu Bai's identity was completely confirmed, and no one was suspicious anymore.

"Okay." Xu Bai was expressionless, and he didn't say a word, just a simple word, and walked towards the door.

And the less he says, the thinner his expression becomes, the more people can't guess his heart.

The head of the Ye family waited until Xu Bai walked in, then he turned his head and looked at Ye Zi, his red lips opened slightly, and he didn't make a sound, but he could see it from his lips.

"What the hell is going on?"

Ye Zi didn't say anything, just followed behind Xu Bai and walked in directly.

The surrounding women glanced at each other, and several women had already shown regret, especially the woman named Ye Yu.

At the beginning, Ye Yu was arranged, not because she was stronger than Ye Zi, but because her power in the Ye family was slightly greater.

Even if it is regarded as a commodity, it has a different status in the Ye family, so at the beginning, Ye Yu took the lead, but because of Xu Bai's reputation on the rivers and lakes at that time, Ye Yu refused, and changed several women, all of whom also refused.

Now it seems that Xu Bai is so terrifying as rumored in the rivers and lakes, and looking at Ye Zi's expression just now, these are not pretended, which means that Ye Zi is sincerely happy.

All the women who go out of the Ye family, few of them have a really happy smile, and the reason is very simple, even if they have a firm foothold in those places, they are just concubines in the final analysis.

Those high-ranking officials and magnates will not treat them with equal status, but just give some nominal help when the Ye family needs help, so as not to make these high-ranking officials and magnates lose face.

Ke Ye Zi ...... It's a genuinely happy smile.

This kind of smile is extremely luxurious in the Ye family.

"If I had known, I wouldn't have refused in the first place."

In the hearts of these women, thoughts appeared in unison.

At this time, Xu Bai had already walked to a room and sat down.

I have to say that he has been looking at the situation of the Ye family all the way, and this Ye family is worthy of relying on a unique method to gain a firm foothold in the Wind Chime Mansion, and with the various facilities in the family, it is already extremely clever.

There are study halls dedicated to practicing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, as well as embroidery halls, and even places for walking manners.

From time to time, you can see one or two beautiful girls, or holding musical instruments, or holding pen, ink, paper and inkstone, walking in one room after another.

And some girls sit next to the rockery, embroidering against the clear water in front of them, and embroidering a pair of mandarin ducks is lifelike.

What's more, wearing a white and flawless dress, he folded his hands on his lower abdomen and walked back and forth.

When walking, the waist sways like a willow, but it is full of endless style.

All in all, each facility is very exquisite, and the purpose of each facility is the cultivation of members of the Ye family.

Piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, knowledge and etiquette, even this kind of demeanor must be exquisite, and the women cultivated in this way, even those high-ranking officials and magnates, will not have a few who are unwilling.

And the place where he is now is a hall dedicated to receiving guests, and the furniture inside is very well arranged, and after entering the door, you can smell a good smell of sandalwood.

Xu Bai roughly compared, compared to the sandalwood fragrance on the catkins, it was still a little worse.

The sandalwood fragrance on the catkins has been brewing for a long time.

It's a natural pickle, and of course it smells more pleasant.

Ye Zi stood behind Xu Bai, and his soft little hands rubbed Xu Bai's shoulders.

Xu Bai tilted his head, just leaning on Ye Zi's chest, squinting his eyes, and looking at the head of the Ye family.

seems to be a plump woman, but Xu Baijiu is messing around in the rivers and lakes, and it is naturally obvious that this Ye family master has a kind of businessman-like shrewdness.

"Lord Xu, use tea." Two maids walked up, holding teacups, and carefully handed them to Xu Bai.

When he handed it over, he didn't know if he had a heart, and his fingers hooked on Xu Bai's palm.

"Lord Xu, I don't know if I want to stay for a few days when I go to the Ye family this time, or do I have other plans?" The head of the Ye family took a sip of tea, and his voice was soft.

She didn't ask Xu Bai what the situation was, why Ye Zi stayed by Xu Bai's side, there was no need to ask.

Smart people have never paid attention to these processes, only the results, and now it seems that the results are very perfect, which is a good thing, and asking too many questions will make the other party bored.

Xu Bai also likes to talk to smart people, after all, everything can be done directly, he also took a sip of tea, then put down the teacup, and said, "I want to borrow your book for use." ”

Book?

The head of the Ye family was directly stunned on the spot, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

Library?

What does that mean?

This was said too abruptly, so that the Ye family master did not react.

Even if he is talking about borrowing someone, he can understand very well, after all, if he wants to borrow someone, the head of the Ye family can pull out a lot of personal beauty at any time and let Xu Bai choose.

"That's right, Ye Zi is now my person, so she has to follow me all the time, but after her strength improves, she must have corresponding exercises, so I will come over to get the follow-up exercises." Xu Bai said with a smile.

This reason is excellent, after all, now Ye Zi is his person, and it is reasonable for him to help Ye Zi ask for exercises.

The Ye family master's face became unnatural: "The books of the Trick Master, the Ye family does not include follow-ups. ”

The Ye family's exercises themselves are cultivated with energy, and if they are consummated, they can reach the second grade, of course, the Ye family master is not consummated.

But this thing, the Ye family will never cover the follow-up, and any woman who goes out of the Ye family will not have this kind of request, Xu Bai is still the first to put it forward for Ye Zi.

The matter of exercises is the most important thing in the Ye family, to be precise, it is very important for every family.

"Master Ye, I was born in the rivers and lakes, and I am not one of those high-ranking officials and magnates, to have today's achievements, they are all hard-working, and I pay more attention to strength, the stronger Ye Zi, the better it will be for you." Xu Bai took another sip of tea, and then said slowly.

The meaning of the words, he has already picked out the meaning very clearly.

Given, if there is something in the future, as long as he can help, he will naturally help, which is also Xu Bai's criterion.

In business, as long as it is in place, everyone is a person who talks about integrity, after all, his integrity is well-known.

Like the catkins without flowers before, and the cloud from the back, even if it is His Majesty the Emperor now, he is very honest in doing business.

"Lord Xu, can you allow me to think about it for two more days?" The head of the Ye family also understood the meaning, "This is not a trivial matter, I have to think about it carefully. ”

"Of course, Xu is not an unreasonable person, the Ye family master can think about it more, if he disagrees, forget it." Xu Bai stood up: "It's just the last few days, but I want to disturb the head of the Ye family, I want to live in the Ye family." ”

"You are a distinguished guest of my Ye family, that is natural, come from here." The head of the Ye family waved his hand.

With the action of the head of the Ye family, two maids immediately walked in with their heads bowed and took Xu Bai and Ye Zi to the two upper rooms.

Xu Bai and Ye Zi lived in one room, while the four-rank puppet lived in another room, after all, in the eyes of the Ye family master, the four-rank puppet was a living person.

The room is a real upper room, from the layout to the furnishings, it is a top good, even the soft bunk on the bed, with a strange fragrance, smelling refreshing.

This bed is very large, enough for several people to roll on it, and it seems that the Ye family is also sensible, and it is quite well arranged in terms of guest rooms.

And there is a curtain next to it, and in the curtain is a huge wooden barrel, which is used for bathing.

"Lord Xu, do you need hot water?" The two maids looked at each other and asked.

After a tiring journey, Xu Bai was naturally a little tired, nodded and agreed.

"Bring me a change of clothes, right in my old room." Ye Zi added.

The two maids hurried down, and in a short time, filled the barrel with hot water.

At the same time, he also brought Ye Zi's change of clothes over.

After doing all this, the two maids retired directly and did not stay.

At other times, maybe they have the idea of staying, after all, they can bathe Xu Bai, and they may be able to get a lot of benefits.

But Ye Zi is here, so there is nothing to do with them, after all, compared with Ye Zi, the appearance of these maids is still much worse.

"I'm here to serve my son in the bath." Ye Zi put aside the change of clothes and closed the curtain at the same time.

This curtain is placed in the room, of course, not to cover it, after all, the door is closed tightly, and it is useless to cover it, but it is used to keep warm and prevent the heat from escaping.

Xu Bai nodded, and after Ye Zi took off the clothes on his body, he lay down in the barrel and put his head on the edge of the barrel.

Ye Zi first rubbed Xu Bai's head and shoulders, and then began to clean it, chatting while cleaning.

"Childe, Ye Yu's expression today is too exciting."

As she spoke, Ye Zi told her what had happened, including Ye Yu's place in her place.

Xu Bai smiled and said, "It seems that you didn't have a good time in the Ye family before. ”

Ye Zi nodded unabashedly, in front of her son-in-law, she did not hide her experience: "The Ye family itself is a family, naturally there are ranks, and I am usually bullied by her." ”

Of course, it can be seen that Ye Zi's personality actually looks in line with the characteristics of the Ye family, weak as water on the surface, but extremely strong on the inside.

If it weren't for the strength inside, he wouldn't have gone against the Ye family's ideas and sneaked out of the Ye family.

If it were another woman, I am afraid that she would have already taken it, and she would not have the intention of running away.

Ye Zi said, his hand slowly went down, continued to clean Xu Bai, and said, "Son, what if the head of the family doesn't give it?" ”

Xu Bai closed his eyes and enjoyed it, and said: "I won't give it, your family master, with the shrewdness of a businessman, so this is a business, the reason why she said that she would delay it for two days is just thinking about what kind of conditions should be required for her to hand over her things." ”

When we were talking just now, Xu Bai had already seen that the Ye family master was actually excited, but after all, it was business, if he gave something to Xu Bai, of course the Ye family master had to know what he wanted.

So it took two days to think about what the Ye family master needed.

Of course, this is a business, and if two days later, the conditions proposed by the Ye family are too high, Xu Bai will naturally ignore it.

"Childe saw it so accurately." Ye Zi grinned.

"I have more important things than that." Xu Bai suddenly became serious.

Ye Zi was slightly stunned, and subconsciously asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"It's been washed for a long time, and the fire is up." Xu Bai grabbed Ye Zi's arm with his backhand, and dragged her into the barrel amid Ye Zi's exclamation.

The exclamation, with a suppressed voice, gradually sounded.

……

Following.

Xu Bai got up from his slumber and patted Ye Zi's shoulder.

Ye Zi opened his eyes in a daze, raised his white arm, and rubbed his eyes with the back of his hand.

The momentum on her body has changed, becoming stronger than before, and just last night, when she was in the barrel, Ye Zi reached the realm of the fifth grade.

Strong kidney collection, Meng!

"Childe, wait a minute." After Ye Zi got dressed, he began to dress Xu Bai, "Today, I'll take my son to visit the Wind Chimes Mansion." ”

With Ye Zi's movements, there was a shaking.

Xu Bai nodded, and after Ye Zi finished wearing, he got up and came to the door and opened the door.

The sunlight outside the door shone in, Xu Bai squinted his eyes and took a breath of fresh air.

In the courtyard not far away, there were two maids standing, and after seeing Xu Bai open the door, they hurriedly walked over.

"Lord Xu, do you have any orders?" The maid asked.

Xu Bai shook his head.

Ye Zi stepped forward and said, "Today I will take my son to the mansion for a walk, you don't care about us." ”

The maid nodded, lowered her head again, and returned to her original position.

Of course, the Wind Chimes Mansion is to be visited, and Xu Bai has not forgotten his original purpose.

Let's take a look at the general situation of this Wind Chime Mansion first, in order to face the next interception.

"Ye Zi, you have been very hard all the way, if you don't take a break, I'll take Master Xu out for a walk." Ye Yu didn't know where to come from, and said softly.

As she spoke, her waist swayed slightly, as if she were making a display of arms.

Ye Zi didn't say anything.

Xu Bai didn't say anything, pulled Ye Zi and bypassed Ye Yu directly, without looking at her, and walked towards the door.

- This woman is boring.

The four-rank puppet carried the burden and followed behind Xu Bai.

Only Ye Yu was left, and he was messy in the wind.

The two maids didn't dare to look at it, but it could be seen from their smiling expressions that they wanted to laugh, but they didn't dare to laugh.

"In these days, does anyone still mind that there are many women?" Ye Yu's whole body was numb.

What she thought was that since Xu Bai was not as terrifying as the rumors in the rivers and lakes, it was completely necessary to get close, after all, in terms of potential, Xu Bai's potential was very huge.

But she never expected that Xu Bai didn't even look at her.

Is she worse than Ye Zi?

Maybe it's worse, after all, Ye Zi's softness is natural, but it's not much worse.

"Impossible." Ye Yu muttered to himself.

And when they were thinking like this, Xu Bai and the others were already walking on the street.

I have to say that the temperament of this wind chime house is indeed much more elegant than other houses, and all kinds of musical instruments, just placed there, make people look comfortable.

Of course, in Xu Bai's view, this kind of area full of unique music has some weaknesses and shortcomings, the most obvious is that it lacks the market atmosphere.

The streets, the vendors, including the passers-by, if they don't have the atmosphere of the market, there is something missing.

Between people coming and going, Ye Zi leaned beside Xu Bai and explained various places to Xu Bai from time to time.

It is true that the women of the Ye family rarely go out, but they will learn theoretical knowledge, and they only need to look at it to be able to use it in practice, such as leading the way now.

Ye Zi just saw a place, and he was able to corroborate each other with the memories in his mind, and he played the role of a guide for Xu Bai.

Xu Bai listened and walked, wandering along the way, but nothing happened, and it was not until noon that the two of them were ready to return to the Ye family.

But before they could make a move, they suddenly noticed that there was a change in the street.

The crowd began to move in one direction, and a situation like this where a large number of people walked in one direction naturally attracted Xu Bai's attention.

Xu Bai touched his chin, grabbed a person casually, and asked, "Brother, what happened ahead, why are you all going in one direction?" ”

The people who were pulled were slightly stunned, and saw that Xu Bai had an inexplicable aura on his body, which made him feel very scared, and saw Xu Bai carrying a black knife around his waist, he couldn't help but shrink his neck, and said honestly: "I heard that it was a person who died in Chunyu Pavilion, and he died quite miserably, and we were about to go and see a lively scene." ”

Spring Rain Pavilion?

Xu Bai let go of his hand and let the people leave, his brows furrowed.

The Spring Rain Pavilion opened by the Ninth Princess has always been one of the important sources of wealth for the Great Chu State, and now that something happened to the Spring Rain Pavilion, it aroused his curiosity.

And listening to what I just meant, the dead people are still miserable.

"Check it out." Xu Bai put down his hand and said.

Ye Zi hummed softly and followed Xu Bai's side.

The two of them were puppets and hurried towards the direction of the Spring Rain Pavilion......

Following the direction of the flow of the crowd, I walked for a while and arrived at my destination.

At this moment, the Spring Rain Pavilion, which was supposed to be the place of Fengyue, was full of people, surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside.

It is not clear from the outside, what is the situation.

After standing here for a while, a short time before a team of officers came.

They lined up the people, and they made them all get out of the way, and then they went inside.

At this time, Xu Bai also saw the situation inside.

There was a corpse lying on the ground, with all the clothes removed from it, and it died quite miserably.

From the chest to the abdomen, there was a long wound, which was cut by a sharp object.

The most important thing is that the inside of the wound is clean, there are no internal organs, not even a piece of wreckage.

Dead and no entrails yet?

That's kind of interesting.

How can ordinary murderous eucalyptus empty out all the internal organs of people, and clean them out.

The official also inspected the scene for a while, and then carried the person away and covered it with a white cloth.

In the crowd, there were bursts of discussions, and Xu Bai listened to them and narrowed his eyes.

"How many people are this?"

"The third one, the first one died in the street, and the second one died in the inn, and the internal organs were emptied."

"Who did this?"

"Who knows, don't talk about it, let's go, the internal organs are hollowed out, it's too weird."

……

Three dead?

Xu Bai heard these discussions and fell into deep thought.

Not only did three die, but all three of them died in exactly the same way, from the chest to the abdomen were cut open with a sharp weapon, and all the internal organs were gone.

But......

Although this thing happened bizarrely, it didn't seem to have anything to do with the interception of him, and it wasn't aimed at him.

Xu Bai thought about it for a while, but he didn't think of anything that could be connected, and the two could even be said to be unrelated.

After all, how could those who wanted to kill him turn their heads and attack some ordinary people, this is a bit unreasonable.

At this time, Ye Zi, who is a know-it-all, spoke.

"Childe, I have something in mind that is very similar to the current situation."
