Sunset on the West Mountain, in an inn in the east city of Chengtianfu.

The window of the room facing the street on the second floor was open, and Night Terror stood at the window, watching the red sun that was about to set on the mountain.

At the table not far behind him, Fan Qinghe was holding a cotton ball in his hand, and his eyes were full of distress and rubbing his white little arms:

"Girl's family, what is not good to learn, learn foreign kung fu. Look at this beaten, it's bruised and purple......"

"Ahh

Zhe Yunli was wearing a black chivalrous dress, and the front of her body was gray, full of lime powder that had not been cleaned: the hat hung on her back, and there were some coiled hair, and her eyes could be opened because they had been cleaned, but her eyes were still red, and she sneezed from time to time and complained twice:

"The Jianghu people of Beiliang really don't talk about martial arts, they are all grandmasters, and they still sprinkle lime, and they are accompanied by chili noodles in it, and they can't drop the price......"

Because when fighting with Zhao Dong, the thin knife is not suitable for heavy slashing, and can only resist the back of the knife to resist the chopping, and on the arm of Zheyunli rolling up his sleeves, there are also a few bruises on the back of the knife, although this is no injury to the night terror, but it still looks shocking on the little girl.

Bird Bird stood on the table, and at this time he was quite sensible, rubbing his head against Yunli's shoulder, which meant 'it doesn't hurt or hurt'.

was cared for by Aunt Fan and Bird Bird as a little girl, Zhe Yunli was quite embarrassed, and said with her head held high:

"You don't need to rub the medicine, I've practiced the bath fire diagram, and I'll disappear by myself after a while."

"Then it hurts for a long time. Moreover, the fire bath map is not made out of nothing, and it takes energy to heal the wounds, and it is more troublesome to make up for it than buying medicine, so you don't need to ...... if you can."

"Alas, I can't stand this pain, what kind of rivers and lakes do you go, and I only earn a total of ten taels of silver......"

……

Night Terror Hall looked at the window for a moment, and only when the officers and soldiers of the brigade ran out of the city did he close the window and turn around and interject:

"In the future, when you fight with others, even if you face a hero with unparalleled benevolence and righteousness, you must treat the other party as a villain defense in your heart. After all, as long as I can beat my opponent to death, even if I use the next three indiscriminate tricks, few people in the world will know about it. ”

"Ahh

Zhe Yunli sneezed again, and then said:

"Eat a trench and grow a wisdom, it's the first time I've fought with a grandmaster, who would have thought that martial arts are so high, and I still have this kind of ghost thing with me. When I meet an opponent in the future, even if it is a martial saint, I will guard against it...... Anyway, has my cousin suffered a loss before? ”

"In that place in Liangzhou, it is notoriously not martial arts, and when I was four or five years old, I was sprinkled with sand when I got into a fight with a child in the town, I was beaten by my father-in-law when I went back, and I have a long memory since then."

Night Terror Hall said this, looked at the skirt of the folded cloud glass, and it was seen that there was an obvious crease on the side of the black chest, which was broken out by the bowstring, and said:

"Are you okay with your chest?"

When Fan Qinghe heard this, his heart tightened, and he raised his hand to hook Yunli's collar:

"You also have a chest injury?"

Zhe Yunli's face turned red, and she hurriedly pressed her collar:

"It's nothing, it's just that I didn't pay attention to the bow and collapsed my chest."

Fan Qinghe remembered that the Night Terror Hall was clubbing beside him, and turned back and said:

"Shocked, go out and buy some medicine and come back."

Night Terror Hall naturally didn't mean to stand next to the injury test, and turned around and went out at the moment, but as soon as his heart moved, he remembered one more thing:

"Huo Fengzhai also introduced me to an errand, saying that he went to a big family to be a scholar, and he became able to go to Yanjing with him and study with him in Guozijian."

Fan Qinghe sat up a little straighter: "Scholar? …… Those who can go to Guozijian are all famous families here, and they will definitely be able to contact the Taoist magnates when they go to the capital, which is appropriate. But how can you be a scholar? ”

Zhi Yunli also nodded: "My woman is almost dressed as a man, so I am surprised that cousin, you are so beautiful and fair-skinned, standing in front of the son of a big family, you can set off the son of a man as a follower, how dare people want you." ”

Night Terror Hall has practiced the Fire Bath Chart and the Evergreen Chart, and the daughter-in-law helps maintain it every day, and the person is young and the skin is indeed very good.

When he went out to walk the rivers and lakes, he had actually taken care of it, wearing ordinary clothes, and smearing some common 'sunscreen' on his face to make his skin look yellow, otherwise Situ Yanfeng could see that he was not an ordinary person.

Night Terror Hall didn't want to be a scholar, but the purpose of this trip was to sneak into the palace, to be able to have multiple choices, it was better than waiting blindly in the house with a shelf, seeing that the two felt that the image was not suitable, he simply went downstairs to ask the shopkeeper to borrow an old robe that could barely be worn, and then ran to the firewood room and fluttered twice, and then untied the bundled hair, deliberately drooping a few strands.

After cleaning up, the dusty night terror hall came up again, and leaned against the door with his arms crossed:

"And now?"

Zhe Yunli looked up and down and nodded:

"There are more rivers and lakes than just now, and it's almost the same as just arriving in Shuanggui Lane, but ...... Hmmm......"

"It's a bit chic."

Fan Qinghe also likes the dress of the prodigal son of the night terror, and got up and looked back and forth:

"Don't look so decent, be frivolous."

Night Terror Hall is originally from the bottom of the rivers and lakes, how to pretend to be a ranger naturally knows, the saber wrapped in black cloth is inserted behind his waist at will, and then he turns around and walks downstairs:

"Alright, I'll go check it out first, and I'll be back later."

Fan Qinghe watched the night terror hall go downstairs, and ran to the window to check, and found that the night terror hall was really into the play, and when he arrived on the street, he looked left and right, and then picked a straw pole and put it in his mouth to blend into the crowd, a little young woman passed by, and looked back a few times, causing a sound:

"Sigh ~ what to see...... Pretty handsome......"

Zhe Yunli also came to the window, looked at the shocked cousin with a natural expression, and wanted to praise, but finally frowned and said:

"Cousin Shock, is this pretending, or is it revealing its original form?"

Fan Qinghe couldn't figure it out, after all, the Night Terror Hall was more beautiful than this on the bed, but it was not good to say bad things about the husband behind her back, the Night Terror Hall heard it, and she had to punish her for moving by herself at night, so she still closed the window at the moment:

"It must be pretended, you are surprised how decent your cousin is, you don't know it...... Come and sit down and heal your wounds, birds, go to the sentry, don't let people touch you......"

"Tsk."

……

————

As the sun sets, the sky gets darker, and the streets get more and more crowded.

Night Terror Hall walked from the inn to the center of the city in front of the street boys, casually looking at the beautiful beauties on the street, and before I knew it, I arrived near a college.

Chengtianfu is the gateway to the boundary of the capital, and the families gather, the grade of the school here is naturally not low, occupying a whole block, and the surrounding shops, many are the chess clubs, piano workshops and so on opened by the major families.

Yuelai Bookstore is located on the main street of the main entrance of the academy, which is a library, which can be used by students to read and exchange in it for free, and can also be rented and purchased.

Night Terror Hall came to the main street of the academy, and after a little search, he found the location of the Yuelai Study, which can be seen to be a three-story building, the scale is quite large, there is a guard standing at the door, and there are two young warriors with weapons, talking at the door:

"We've come all the way here, so let's go in and try ......"

"Alas, haven't you said all the requirements, you have to look good and be strong in martial arts......"

"Aren't we all right?"

"What are you two left besides being handsome? The stone lock can't even be lifted, so let you serve Miss Young Master in the future, or Miss Young Master will serve you? ”

"This stone lock is one hundred and twenty pounds, and it can be lifted with one hand, who will run to be a scholar?"

……

Night Terror Hall looked up, and it could be seen that the two young men were in their early twenties, both of them were cream students, and they looked polite and good-looking, but they were a little thin. He came to the neighborhood and interjected:

"I was introduced by the head of Huofengzhai, who is recruiting people here?"

The guard at the door, hearing this, glanced at the Night Terror Hall - he was a head taller than the two crooked melons and cracked dates at the door, and his face was much more weekly, but it was a little raunchy.

But the rangers are like this, and the guards didn't care, and motioned to the stone lock at the door:

"I don't have to worry about the head of Situ, but the process still has to go, you ...... Uh......"

Call~

With a hook of his toes, the Night Terror Hall turned the stone lock upside down, took it in his hand, chewed the straw pole and said:

"Okay?"

The guards were stunned, and they only felt that the introduction of the Jianghu Sect was really different, and they immediately turned around and let them go:

"Inside, please."

Seeing this, Night Terror put the stone lock in the hands of the two young men next to him, and carried it up the steps.

The two young offspring, seeing the night terror hall and the vine ball, obviously had the illusion of 'not heavy', and subconsciously raised their hands to catch it, but the two of them were stumbling and almost hit their toes:

"Hey! You're ......."

"Pick it up, it's going to drop ......"

……

The Night Terror Hall didn't pay attention to the nonsense behind it, came to the study, turned the hall door in the lobby, and found that there were already six martial artists standing in the backyard, all of them were shoulder-width and well-proportioned with their backs, obviously they were practicing families, and the age difference was quite large, the youngest was in his early twenties, and the oldest was almost fifty.

And under the eaves of the courtyard, there was a steward standing, talking:

"It's not easy for you to come from afar, although there is only one person today, but since you have entered the door, whether you succeed or not, the lord will also seal a red envelope......"

"Master Hua's atmospheric ......"

"yes......"

……

Night Terror Hall frowned slightly when he heard 'Master Hua', but he didn't know the specific location of Hua Qingzhi's hometown beforehand, and before he had time to delve into it, he saw the steward under the eaves beckoning to him:

"There's another young man, come here, the screening will begin immediately. What's your name? ”

Seeing this, Night Terror walked up to the six and responded:

"Huangmei County, Shaba Village, Zhao Si."

"Zhao Si...... Okay, can you bring the talisman? ”

"Give ......"

……

And at the same time, the window of the room on the second floor of the study.

Hua Junchen sat on the tea couch, looking down at the situation in the courtyard, and when the ranger named 'Zhao Si' came in, his eyes moved obviously, and he felt that this back was a little familiar.

But last time in Tianlang Lake, Hua Junchen was several miles away from the battlefield, and he could only see a vague outline, and he was separated by a wall in the prison, and even his voice was indistinguishable from that of men and women.

For this reason, Hua Junchen just touched his chin and nodded after looking at it a few times:

"This young man who just came in looks pleasing to the eye, but he doesn't know how to do kung fu."

Opposite Hua Junchen, he was the master of Washington, and he was specially handling the matter of recruiting guards today, and said to this:

"I just heard from the people below that it was introduced by Huofeng Zhai, Situ Yanfeng has always been reliable, and people who are not sure will not send it here, and the martial arts should be good.

"It's getting dark, and everyone is estimated to have come, do you want to invite the young lady over and look for it yourself?"

Hua Junchen said: "That girl is playing chess with Miss Liu's family, she should come over immediately, let's start first." ”

Seeing this, the master nodded slightly, and didn't say much, but turned his eyes to look down:

"Let's get started."

In the courtyard, the middle-aged man dressed as a steward was ordered, so he retreated to the side, and asked the family to take a sign that had been erected, on which a chess game was placed, and said:

"The seven who will serve in the future are Miss Gongzi of Washington, who is a little more proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. In this game, it is the turn of black to fall, where do you think the fall is the top? ”

The six martial artists who stood with their backs straight on their backs were not necessarily proficient in chess, but they still knew some about the rules, because the treatment of the Hua family was really good, including food, housing and marriage for a lifetime, and they all began to think about it at the moment.

Night Terror Hall is not ready to be a person, and it is purely to take a look here, secretly brewing at the moment, looking for an opportunity to inquire about the exact work arrangement, to see if there is any contact with the prince of the capital, and the opportunity to enter the imperial city.

But it's really hard to speak, and before the Night Terror Hall has brewed a reasonable speech, it hears the sound of wheels in the hall of the study behind it, and the chatter of two women:

"Miss Liu's chess skills are still so poor, I can't stand Miss Liu's release of water......"

"There are only a few people in the world who can compete with me......"

……

？！

The voice......

Night Terror Hall was shocked, and his heart was secretly not good, knowing that he had come to the wrong place.

He didn't look back, just looked left and right, paying attention to the eyes of the people around him, and wanted to do a vanishing technique.

But more than ten families around him watched, and he suddenly disappeared in front of everyone's eyes, and the spread of it must have caused people to be alarmed, and it was a bit of a dilemma at the moment.

And at the doorway.

The purpose of Hua Qingzhi's trip was to choose a guard, and at this time, she had just returned from the nearby chess club and was pushed into the hall of the study by Lu Zhu.

Originally, Hua Qingzhi wanted to be carried directly to the second floor, but when she walked to the staircase, she saw that in the backyard, there were seven martial artists standing with their backs to this side, taking the exam, and the back on the far left was a little inexplicably familiar.

"Huh?"

Hua Qingzhi was slightly stunned, turned her head to look carefully, and felt that this back figure was so familiar, but her temperament and clothing had changed too much, so she didn't dare to feel it, so she slid her wheelchair and came to the door of the backyard to look inside.

Hearing the sound behind him, the housekeepers in the backyard all looked back, and those who knew him hurriedly saluted:

"Miss......"

Hua Qingzhi walked in and looked carefully, the more she looked at it, the more she looked like that man, but she was in Chengtian Mansion, where did she dare to confirm it directly, and immediately said:

"This young man with a hat, can you turn around?"

“……”

Night Terror didn't expect Hua Qingzhi's eyes to be so vicious, seeing that the other party had already determined his identity, it was pointless for him to cover it up, so he said:

"This gentleman, if I find an understanding, will I be able to enter Washington as a guard?"

The steward was looking at the young lady, and found that the night terror hall was asking, and said inexplicably:

"Behind your ears? Miss called you. ”

"Huh?"

Night Terror Hall made the appearance of hearing it, and then slowly turned his head and looked at the hall behind him:

"Who is this young lady?"

"Hiss......"

Standing behind the wheelchair, Lu Zhu saw the familiar cheeks and secretly gasped in surprise.

And Hua Qingzhi was also stunned, but she didn't expect that there was really a night terror standing in the backyard.

However, she has a smart brain, and she knows that the identity of the Night Terror Hall is exposed, and she can alarm the entire beam, and she doesn't dare to talk nonsense at the moment.

Hearing that Night Terror Tang wanted to come to Washington to do something, Hua Qingzhi couldn't figure out the reason behind it, but she still responded:

"I'm a young lady of the Hua family, this time I hired a guard, are you here to apply?"

On the second floor, Hua Junchen saw his daughter talking, and he also missed the window and looked down:

"Qingzhi, do you know this person?"

Hua Qingzhi's expression was a little nervous, obviously afraid that her father would recognize her, but seeing her father's calm and calm appearance, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said:

"I don't know, I just think this ranger is very pleasing to the eye, or choose him."

Hua Junchen also felt that this ranger was pleasing to the eye, but he was recruiting guards, not sons-in-law, so he looked at the night terror hall below with a majestic face:

"Zhao Si, how are your kung fu?"

Night Terror Hall and Hua Qingzhi looked at each other, feeling quite embarrassed, but they still followed the words:

"Kung fu is okay, being a guard should be enough."

"It's not enough, I have to protect the safety of Miss in the future, I don't have the ability to be a first-class master, and I can't take on a big responsibility." You come to pick me up three ways......"

As Hua Junchen spoke, he was about to jump down from the second floor and point out the young student.

？！

Hua Qingzhi didn't expect her father to be so brave, probably because she was afraid that her father would be poked to death with a finger, so she hurriedly stopped it:

"Dad, he's so young, where is Daddy's opponent, let him do things in the house first, and then cultivate slowly, and ......talk about it when he's older."

Hua Junchen always felt that his daughter was a little close to this Zhao Si, thought about it slightly, frowned, and said:

"Qingzhi, you don't choose him just because he looks handsome......"

"Daddy!"

Hua Qingzhi was a little annoyed when she heard this, and turned her head:

"Whether it's a guard or a maid, you have to pleasing yourself first, and then think about your ability. If Daddy doesn't look down on it, then this guard won't recruit it. ”

Hua Junchen actually felt that the young people below were pleasing to the eye for no reason, and he just wanted to find an opportunity to test the depth and see if he could accept an apprentice to cultivate.

Seeing that his daughter was unhappy, he had to dispel his thoughts of pointing and said:

This is also true. Then you stay, the other six strong men, I'm really sorry, the generous gifts prepared by Washington, you can go to the steward to receive the reward, it's getting late, go back and rest early. ”

The remaining six martial artists are obviously envious in their eyes, after all, Miss Hua Da's appearance is not like she has fallen in love with the guards, as long as she is clever, she may become the aunt of the Hua family in one step in the future.

But this 'Zhao Si' is really sunny and handsome, the six of them crooked melons and cracked dates really don't have this life, and it is not worth the trip to be able to take a big red envelope in Washington's hand, and I didn't say much at the moment, after taking the red envelope from the steward's hand, he bowed and left one after another.

Night Terror Hall just came to see it, and it was decided, and I was still a little hesitant in my heart. After all, he wants to sneak into the imperial city to make trouble, so it will be troublesome for the Hua family to get into trouble.

But these things can only be communicated with Hua Qingzhi in private, and he still gives up at the moment:

"Mr. Xie Hua."

Hua Junchen touched his chin and nodded, he wanted the steward to take the night terror hall down to change clothes and arrange accommodation, but after thinking about it, he said:

"Zhao Si's name is really too ordinary, you will work under Miss in the future, and you will see all the princes and nobles in the capital, and you still have to change your name. Miss has a guard named Huaning, you will be partners in the future, Anning Anning, you will be auspicious, you will be called ...... in the future"

Hua Qingzhi may be afraid of being wronged by the night terrors, and interjected:

"Huaning has been at home since he was a child, so he followed his family name. The man's family does not change his name, sits or changes his surname, and comes to the house as a guard, how can there be any reason to change his name and surname, just call him Shiro in the future. ”

"Shiro ......"

Hua Junchen felt that this title was called his son's father-in-law, but when his daughter said so, he couldn't change his name again, so he continued:

"Shiro, you follow Steward Wang to get the clothes first, if there are family members who go back to say hello, you have to leave for Yanjing in two days, prepare in advance."

Hua Qingzhi ran away for fear of night terrors, and added:

"After changing his clothes, bring him to me, and I will teach him some of the usual rules."

Hua Junchen told the truth, he was really afraid that this kid below was sent by the Wang family to arch the cabbage.

However, it is better for a girl to like than not to marry, so she didn't say much at the moment, turned around and entered the room......
