Chapter 50: Xuanji Pavilion
In my impression, Shen Qingjiu can only overlook the demon city when she stands on the roof of the Taiji Tower, and today, she is flying in the sky, the warm summer breeze is blowing in her ears, the demon city under her feet is like a map, those buildings are like models, as well as the trees swaying in the wind, and the flowing river, all of which are clearly displayed in front of her.
A few minutes later, the Suzaku who was leading the way in front stopped, Bai Ruyu also stopped, Shao Siyu arrived last with Shen Qingjiu, and several people stood on a roof, this roof is not a modern style, but is stacked with red tiles, with a sloped roof, and the eaves are in the shape of an eagle.
Suzaku hugged his chest with both hands, and the breeze blew his red robe, like a peony blooming at the same time, the beauty is incomprehensible, the beauty is overwhelming, the corners of his lips are slightly raised, and his eyes are slightly disdainful: "The breath is only in this place." ”
Shao Siyu nodded slightly and said, "Then go down and have a look." ”
"Wait...... Wait a minute! ”
Shen Qingjiu opened her mouth to block it, but her blocking was already a step slower, because in the house under her feet, countless people ran out of the house, surrounding the house inside and out, and each holding a long stick in his hand, as if he was going to knock several people off the roof in the next second and beat them into meat patties.
Bai Ruyu looked at this scene and smiled slightly, the white light on her wrist flashed, and the long whip had already appeared, looking indifferent, and said in her mouth: "It seems that there is going to be a fight." ”
When Shen Qingjiu saw it, he hurriedly stopped her: "Bai Ruyu, don't do it yet, wait for me to tell them." ”
Bai Ruyu tilted her head to look at her and said, "Do you know them?" ”
Shen Qingjiu took a deep breath and said, "In the demon city, there is no one who doesn't know Taijilou, come down with me." ”
While speaking, Shen Qingjiu took a breath and jumped from the roof, and when the others saw this, they also jumped down and landed behind Shen Qingjiu.
In the courtyard, there were hundreds of people in total, all wearing black clothes, with two white pompoms tied to their clothes, and the sticks in their hands were also of uniform length, holding them in their hands, looking at several people with fierce eyes.
Bai Ruyu spoke again: "Little girl, are you sure they will listen to you well?" ”
Shao Siyu also said: "If you can't do it, don't force it." ”
Only Suzaku was free, a pair of ruby eyes, dripping around, and said: "These people are dressed so strangely, hey, they are still wearing clogs, alas, I have always felt that this kind of shoes are not easy to wear, not only will they fall off, but it is also very cold in winter, only those who practice Sanjiu in winter are not afraid to wear this kind of thing." ”
Actually, you don't have to stare at their shoes.
Shen Qingjiu raised his hand and knocked on his forehead and said, "It's okay, I won't force it." ”
After she finished saying this, she raised her hands, one hand on top and one hand on bottom, stacked them together, raised her voice and said: "I am Taijilou Shen Qingjiu, I am here to track down the lost things, I don't want to break into the Xuanji Pavilion by mistake, if I don't mean to offend, please forgive me!" ”
"Taiji Building, Shen Qingjiu, the one hundred and fifty-eighth generation of the Shen family, come to Xuanji Pavilion in person, make Xuanji Pavilion shine, please come in and see it."
The sound came from inside the house, and the mansion opposite revealed a mysterious and majestic atmosphere.
The people holding sticks on both sides have also changed their looks, put away their sticks, stand up, and say loudly, "Please enter!" ”
The voice is loud, full of confidence, and the uniform sound makes the ground under your feet vibrate.
Shen Qingjiu's heart trembled slightly when he heard this, and he glanced at them embarrassedly, and then whispered to a few people: "Wait until you go in, listen to me, don't speak, the pavilion master of Xuanji Pavilion heard that he is a short-tempered person, there is no need, let's not conflict with him." ”
Bai Ruyu scoffed at this, Shao Siyu kept silent, under his calm face, he couldn't see his opinion on this matter, and the red-clothed Vermilion Bird walked on Bai Ruyu's side, looking at the lively expression, thinking about the giant bird last night, it was really difficult to contact the handsome boy with a broken mouth in front of him.
The gate opened, and the people on both sides lined up from the courtyard to the front of the door, as if they were standing in two rows of door gods.
Shen Qingjiu glanced at it, and then, stabilized his mind, and walked inside, Shao Siyu, Bai Ruyu and Suzaku followed her footsteps, and the four of them stepped up the steps and walked into the house.
The extended eaves, the shadows cast, quickly covered a few people, and when they crossed the threshold, the door closed behind them, and the heavy wooden door made a dull sound, the sound seemed to hit Shen Qingjiu's heart, making her unconsciously the whole back straight.
Shao Siyu said softly: "Don't be afraid, I'm here." ”
Although the voice was very soft, it clearly came into Shen Qingjiu's ears, and Shao Siyu's words were like a reassuring pill, which made her trembling heart gradually calm down, and her body relaxed a lot, looking up at the person sitting in front of the hall.
On a heavy mahogany chair sat ...... A young man?
Shen Qingjiu blinked his eyes quickly, and repeated the person in front of him several times, confirming that he was not mistaken, it was indeed a young man, a young man in his twenties, with a white face and single eyelids, a boy with red lips and white teeth, and he was still looking at Shen Qingjiu with a smile.
The rumored pavilion master of Xuanji Pavilion is an old man who is over half a hundred years old, not the white-skinned young man in front of him.
The young man stood up from his position, stepped on a pair of sneakers, walked briskly, walked in front of Shen Qingjiu, with a pair of single-eyelid eyes, looked Shen Qingjiu up and down, and said: "You are Shen Qingjiu, the heir of the Shen family, I thought it would be an old-fashioned person with glasses, but it turned out to be such a bright little girl, she is still in junior high school, which school did she go to, why did she become the heir of the Shen family so early, it is really surprising." ”
He asked too many questions, and his attitude of asking questions gave people a ridiculous and indecent feeling, Shen Qingjiu was made uncomfortable, and when he looked at himself, his steps unconsciously stepped back, and he said: "I'm already in high school, this time I broke into Xuanji Pavilion by mistake, not intentionally offended, let's leave." ”
The young man didn't intend to let Shen Qingjiu go like this, he took a step closer and said, "I seem to have heard you say that you came to Xuanji Pavilion to find something lost, such a big battle, what valuable things did you lose, say it, or I can help you find it." ”
Shen Qingjiu felt that there was a dangerous aura on his body, especially when he approached him, this dangerous aura became heavier and heavier, and he heard his question in his ears, and said: "It's just a string of beads, maybe I forgot somewhere, I'll just go back and look for it." ”
In the young man's eyes, a light flashed, and he said: "A string of beads, is it the rumored Divine Bead, I heard that this is the ancestor of the Shen family, it is the most valuable thing, if it is lost, it is a big deal, I don't know why I found Xuanji Pavilion, is it the people of Xuanji Pavilion?" ”
"No, it's not!"
Shen Qingjiu hurriedly denied it, and said, "How could someone from Xuanji Pavilion do such a theft, probably that person was just passing by Xuanji Pavilion." ”
"Oh?"
The young man smiled, put one hand on Shen Qingjiu's shoulder, and said with a smile: "It's also possible...... Yes! ”
Before he could finish his words, the whole person suddenly flew out.
"Protect the young master!"
Immediately, more than a dozen people surrounded him, all of them were vicious, their eyes showed fierce light, and they were about to draw their knives and kill people in the next second.
Shao Siyu carried one hand on his back, slowly walked in front of Shen Qingjiu, blocked her behind him, and looked at everything in front of him calmly, those who were eager to try, in his eyes, it seemed that they did not exist, his gaze fell on the young man who was thrown out by him, and said, "She said it, but she went to the wrong place." ”
The young man supported the ground with one hand, refused the support of his subordinates, stood up with great difficulty, twisted his neck, moved his hands and feet, fortunately, he was not injured, he just moved a little, he was able to move freely, first glanced at the people around him, raised his hand, and said, "Don't get excited, all retreat." ”
The men listened to him, and when he had finished speaking, they fell back into their positions, put their hands behind their backs, and stood in an orderly manner.
The young man walked in front of Shao Siyu, but this time he didn't dare to lean too far in front of him, and there was a distance between him, and he said: "Kung Fu is good, you are the guardian spirit of the Shen family, Shao Siyu, I have heard your name, you are very famous recently, many people will mention you in front of me." ”
Shao Siyu listened to him expressionlessly, and replied: "It's just a name, it's not very important." ”
The young man smiled and said, "I have a personality, I like it, make a friend, my name is Midnight, Shangguan Midnight." ”
He stretched out his hand at Shao Siyu, but Shao Siyu looked at his outstretched hand, but he didn't hold it, still looking at him calmly, and said, "So, can we go?" ”
Shangguan Ziye's hand hanging in the air was not withdrawn, and it was not taken back, and after a while, he touched his head awkwardly and said: "Of course you can, Xuanji Pavilion is not a Longtan tiger's den, where is there a reason not to let people leave." ”
Shao Siyu lowered his head slightly, and said in his mouth: "Excuse me, Xiaojiu, let's go." ”
Shen Qingjiu was watching all this in a daze, but after hearing Shao Siyu's words in his ears, he reacted and responded: "Oh, okay." ”
The gate opened, the sunlight filled the courtyard, and Shen Qingjiu and the others left from the Xuanji Pavilion under the gaze of hundreds of people.
Shangguan stood in the shadows under the porch and watched them leave.
A person next to him lowered his eyebrows and lowered his head, and said, "Young master, the pavilion master has been absent for the past few days, these people have trespassed into Xuanji Pavilion, is it so easy to let them go?" ”
Shangguan Ziye showed a calculating smile: "Shen Qingjiu lost the Divine Pearl, she will come again." ”
