Chapter 53: Choice
The inns in Ningcheng were almost full, and Yu finally found the last two rooms in the north of the city before sunset.
She handed the room card to Yuchen and did not forget to instruct: "If a stranger knocks on the door, you can't open the door, and you can't eat the things handed to you by someone you don't know." ”
Looking at her serious and serious look, Yuchen sneered and laughed, calling her sister just because it seemed more logical, but she didn't expect her to really think of herself as a child.
Yu Yu didn't understand the playful look in his eyes, and after settling him down, she turned her head to look at Lan Zhi, and locked the door after leading her into the room.
Looking at Lan Zhi, who was still silent, Yu Yu took a deep breath to stabilize her mood and sat down in front of her.
"It's painful to lose someone close to you, I understand." Yu Wu watched Lan Zhi speak, seeing her haggard appearance, it would make people feel a little pity, but Yu Yu was also very sober at the moment, and that sympathy would not overwhelm her, "But you also know that we are already hostile, and I have no intention of killing him that day." And even if we are a cooperative relationship now, you help me complete the task, I will help you intercede, this is not a loss for you and me, I hope you think clearly, if you don't want to help with this, I will also send you back to Yaoguang Cave. ”
When she said this, she saw Lan Zhi slowly raise her head, and looked at her seriously for the first time in such a long time.
Seeing Lan Zhi's lips slightly open, Yu Wu immediately said again: "Don't rush to reply, just give me the answer before tomorrow's fireworks display." ”
After listening to her, Lan Zhi closed her mouth again, nodded slightly, and sat down on the small bed on the side.
Yu walked to the window, pushed the window open, looked down at the crowd coming and going, and gently tapped her index finger on the window, contemplating her eyes.
This time she went down the mountain, all she could know was that there might be a branch of the Pit Viper Gate in Ning City, and her task was actually very simple, just to find out the movement of the Pit Viper Gate, and there was no danger.
Just as she was thinking about what to do next so as not to startle the snake, she didn't know that at this moment, she was in full view of the person who had just come out of the shop downstairs.
Xie Guan, who had just come out of the rice paper shop, still had rice paper in his hand, standing motionless at the door, and Yu watched it for as long as he stood by the window, like a stone statue.
The little guy next to him saw his thoughts, this little son of the city lord's family, worshiped the teacher in Cangming, and was a famous wanderer, he had seen countless beauties, but he had never seen such an obsession.
"Gongzi Xie," the little guy bent over and smiled flatteringly, "The boss of our house and the owner of the inn opposite are friends..."
The son of the lord of the city has nothing to ask for, and he has all means.
Of course, Xie Guan knew what he meant, he glanced at the people around him, and said disdainfully: "Is this son that kind of person?" ”
"No, no," the little guy immediately said: "Gongzi Xie has always been a righteous man and a gentleman, but the vision of this ordinary man is too low. ”
"Hmph, with the charm of this son, isn't it easy to take her down?" Xie Guan straightened his sleeves, and it happened that Yu Yu looked over casually, Xie Guan's body stiffened, and he immediately raised his hand to pretend to arrange his hair, and his eyes glanced up from time to time.
But Yu Yu just glanced at him, and then closed the window with her hand.
Xie Guan's whole person suddenly froze in place, and when the little guy saw this, he immediately said: "What a woman who doesn't know what to do." ”
"And what are you? Get lost! Xie Guan, who had eaten a closed door soup at the beginning, was embarrassed, and when the little guy said it, he suddenly became angry, kicked him on the buttocks, looked at the closed window and door again, and left with a flick of his sleeves.
Yu Yu leaned against the window, her fingertips playing with the little green bamboo on the table, but she couldn't help but think in her heart, whether it was her coming to the door to apprentice or the immortal ascension conference, there was a twilight mountain view around her to believe, and there was also a night su to rely on in the door, but now, whether it was Lan Zhi or Yuchen, in fact, she couldn't believe any of them.
Lan Zhi doesn't matter, as for Yuchen... He seemed to be simple-minded, but they had only known each other for two or three days, and she couldn't fully believe him.
Most importantly, she didn't want to mess up the first assignment Haosang gave her.
Since Qingyunmen is the most people-friendly among the five major sects, and it is also the one that cares the most about the world, there is not much news she can get in her hands, and the fastest way to get the news at the moment is to pry Lan Zhi's mouth open.
Yu Yu thought, glanced at Lan Zhi, and said unhurriedly: "Where did you live in the city before?" ”
Perhaps it was what Fang Cai Yu said to her that played a role, Lan Zhi was silent for a moment and finally ignored her, and spit out two words, "Riverside." ”
Yu Yu looked ahead and squinted.
It was a large river that surrounded the entire Ningcheng, it was smooth and dangerous, and it had nourished this land for thousands of years.
"Want to go back home?" Yu Yu smiled softly and turned her head to look at her, "I haven't been to Ningcheng, I want to take a look everywhere, can I ask you to lead the way?" ”
There was another silence, and Yu Yu waited patiently until Lan Zhi stood up and said with a golden face, "Yes." ”
Yu Yu smiled, just pushed the door out, and before she could go downstairs, a purple figure suddenly jumped out of the room next to her and suddenly rushed over and hugged her.
As soon as I looked at the silver-haired Yu Woman, I knew who it was, but the afterglow of Fang Cai's eyes swept away, and she almost recognized him as Haosang.
Yuchen hugged Yu Yu and rubbed on her, raised his head to look at her pitifully and said, "Where are you going, don't tell me, you won't want me, this won't work, sister, I won't be able to live without you." ”
Even though he was wearing a mask now, Yu Yu still seemed to be able to see his watery eyes, thinking of a poor puppy who was about to be abandoned.
Yu Wu had no resistance to this at all, and what was even more embarrassing was that as soon as he said this, the people in the inn looked over one after another, as if they were looking at a rotten person who was about to ruthlessly abandon his younger brother.
"I'm just going out for a walk, how can I not want you, don't you rest?" Yu sighed and shook his hand, "If you want to go too, then let's go together." ”
"Okay." Yuchen immediately obediently took Yu Wan's hand, hiding the triumphant smile on the corner of her mouth, "Sister, I will follow you wherever you go." ”
Before my strength stabilized, of course. Yuchen added in his heart.
Seeing that they had enough trouble, Lan Zhi didn't know what to think, so he withdrew his gaze for a long time and walked downstairs silently, and Yu Wu immediately led Yuchen to follow.
At this time, the sky is about to be dark, the pedestrians on the street have become much less, it is already the time of dinner, wisps of white smoke rise from the chimney, woven into winter warm clothes, in this green brick and white tile town, filled with reassuring fireworks, just smell can also hook people's gluttony.
"Is there any delicious shop nearby" Yu Yu walked two steps quickly to catch up with Lan Zhi's pace, Lan Zhi raised his eyelids and pointed to a shop in front of him.
The cauldron at the door was emitting white smoke and the aroma of food.
"Let's go eat." Yu Wu can't help but reward her stomach, and delicious food always makes people feel good.
Lan Zhi didn't say anything, Yu Yu took her acquiescence, grabbed her wrist and walked quickly towards the store.
As everyone knows, in the dark of the alley, there are two lines of sight watching them.
"It's Lan Zhi, how can they be together, Lan Zhi she's not..."Jiu Qi looked at Lan Zhi's brows furrowed tightly, and clenched the sword in his hand hard.
"Don't get excited." Thirty-seven patted her on the back and looked up at their backs, his eyes were heavy but he didn't know what he was thinking, and after a moment of relief, he comforted her and said, "Our task is to keep an eye on her, act on the opportunity, and don't expose ourselves." ”
"But... Brother, Lan Zhi didn't die in the first place, why didn't she come back to us? Now I'm still with that Qingyunmen person, she..."Jiuqi wanted to say something, but when she saw Thirty-seven's face, she swallowed back the words that came to her mouth, turned around angrily, and whispered: "Anyway, I don't like that girl from Qingyunmen, she is a little clever and scheming." ”
Thirty-seven was silent for a moment, then spoke softly: "She's really smart, but as for whether she's scheming... It depends on what kind of person she is. He said, his eyes looking at Yu Yu, who was pulling Lan Zhi to sit down, "If she can be trusted..."
His voice was very low, so low that Jiuqi who was right in front of him didn't hear it, and in her ears it sounded like Thirty-Seven's words were defending Yu's wife, she glanced at Thirty-Seven angrily, stomped her foot and turned around and jumped, and disappeared in front of him in the blink of an eye.
Thirty-seven looked at her, sighed in a low voice, and did not chase after her, but continued his mission.
At this moment, he saw a little guy taking Xie Guan to the store where Yu Yu was, and Thirty-Seven couldn't help frowning.
It's him? How did he end up here?
