Chapter 120: Misunderstanding

Xiaoba turned around, Cui'e also turned around at the same time, and the two looked at each other silently again, but this time, Cui'e's face was covered by a mask, and it could be directly seen that it was Cui'e.

Cui'e didn't care about the injury on her neck, she looked at Xiaoba with her head up, her eyes were cold, and the rain kept beating on the two of them, and the two of them didn't move.

These two people have their own thoughts at the moment, one is that they have just come back from outside, and they are so bold to see that there are people lurking on the roof of the inner hall, so they draw their swords and shoot without thinking about it.

It's just that I didn't expect the other party to be Hachi.

And Xiao Hachi is deeply troubled, he can perceive all movements by laying a black line near here, why didn't he perceive the other party approaching, even if the woman in front of him is a master above the transformation realm, it is impossible to completely avoid the black line perception.

Unless her feet don't touch the ground!

That's right, damn it, I'm so stupid, except for the incense full building, the black lines are all arranged in the hidden places of the streets and alleys, and it happened to be raining heavily tonight, and the black lines hidden on the ground can't perceive things that are too far away.

The other party jumped and moved repeatedly on the roof, so the black line did not perceive the other party's trace at all.

He is really too careless, if the other party is really murderous, he will mobilize all his strength as early as the first shot, so that he will be seriously injured if he does not die, obviously Cui'e has left a hand, and intends to hide his strength.

He didn't want to kill himself directly, Hachi thought quickly in his heart.

Half a day.

Cui'e's red lips opened lightly, and she said coldly.

"Shaoxia, the owner treats you well, you don't rest at night in this rainstorm, what are you doing in the inner hall?" Cui'e's eyes were as cold as her words at the moment.

"Miss Cui'e, I can't sleep at night, I originally wanted to talk to Shopkeeper Liu, but I misunderstood" Xiao Ba's head was running rapidly, and he thought of a reason that sounded reasonable, but when he thought about it, he felt that it was complete nonsense.

Why don't you come down the stairs, knock on the door, and crouch on someone's roof? Hachi himself questioned himself in his heart, he had no choice but to watch the other party's reaction.

"Shaoxia can say it directly, why bother with the rain on the roof" Cui'e heard Xiao Ba's far-fetched excuse, and did not directly pierce Xiao Ba, but said in a slightly soothing tone.

Seeing that Cui'e didn't look like she had to make things difficult for herself, Xiaoba immediately borrowed the slope to get off the donkey, put the short knife back to the sheath, and arched her hand.

"Offended! I often open the window to act.,It's really not appropriate to cause such a misunderstanding.,I didn't know it was Miss Cui'e before.,That's why I pulled out a knife and hurt the girl.,It's all my fault" Xiaoba apologized sincerely.

Xiaoba himself didn't dare to think about it, these words were said by himself, how could he be so changeable now, if he was changed before, where would he say so much, if he wanted to kill or chop, he would come up.

Just now, I knew that it was Cui'e who still made a move, because the other party made a sword to force him, and he subconsciously shot back, but now that he came back to his senses, he knew that he shouldn't, and the other party obviously kept his hand.

And he hit it with all his might, injuring his white neck.

Seeing Xiao Ba's earnest attitude, Cui'e slowly softened her eyes, and the slender soft sword spun out a few sword flowers in her hand, and then handsomely and smoothly put it into the scabbard, and its movements were completed in one go.

"In this case, Cui'e was also abrupt just now, if it weren't for the slave and maid to force her, the young man would not have fought back, this little injury is not in the way" After Cui'e's tone softened, her voice changed back to the soft-spoken Cui'e before.

"But the weather is really bad tonight, and the owner is also a little unwell, so I rested early, and I ask the young man to come back to visit another day!"

"Just remember to go through the front door, you don't have to fall from the sky!" Cui'e issued an eviction order, and also warned Xiaoba not to sneak into the inner hall like this next time, just look at his expression, if there is a next time, he will never show mercy.

Xiao Hachi knew that he was reckless and caused trouble tonight, and now he was prevaricating, so he hurriedly bowed his hand, and then jumped forward, and left the inner hall of the fragrant building with a few jumps.

Seeing Xiaoba's figure gradually disappearing, Cui'e's eyes regained their coldness, raised her bare hand and gently stroked her white neck, the little light on her bare hand flickered, and the scar on her neck quickly healed and disappeared.

The injury caused by Xiaoba to her was only an epidermal injury, and there was some extracutaneous blood, although she suppressed her strength when she shot and did not mobilize all the aura in her body, but the aura in her body was always protective of her body.

With only the strength of Xiaoba's martial arts peak, it is obviously impossible to break her defenses.

After recovering from her injuries, Cui'e jumped lightly, fell in front of the bedroom door, raised her bare hands, and gently knocked on the door three times.

A moment later, a calm middle-aged man's voice came from the bedroom.

"Come in"

Hearing this, Cui'e lowered her head, gently pushed the wooden door with her bare hands, and entered the house.

There was a different kind of fragrance lingering in the room, like sandalwood, but with a hint of peculiar smell, which made people feel refreshed and suddenly opened.

Liu Yongxi's bedroom is simply but elegantly furnished, and when you enter the door, you will see a six-legged copper incense burner, and behind the incense burner is a screen that is layered like waves, and a strange color painting is outlined on the screen.

Bypassing the screen, there is a small tea table, two chairs, and on both sides of the wall are all dark red mahogany bookshelves, which are densely packed with all kinds of books.

When Liu Yongxi has nothing to do on weekdays, or when he can't sleep, he will get up to make himself a pot of tea, take a book and drink tea while reading, and this is exactly the case at this moment.

Liu Yongxi sat cross-legged on a chair, holding a palm-sized booklet in his left hand, studying it carefully, and on his right hand was a clay stove, on which was placed a silver kettle with a hammer, boiling tea, and the fragrance of tea overflowed in the room.

Cui'e walked to his side, saluted respectfully, and then stood beside him with her hands down.

"What's wrong outside, I just heard some movement" Liu Yongxi didn't look up, and continued to look at the pamphlet in his hand and said.

"Back to the east house, when the slave came back, I bumped into the young man named Jiang Ba, he was crouching on the roof of the side house, sneaky, so I shot directly" Cui'e replied respectfully.

"Oh? And this, you killed him? Liu Yongxi became interested, looked up at the woman next to him and asked.

"No, the owner doesn't speak, I don't dare!"

"I just tried his skills, and he said that he couldn't sleep and wanted to visit the owner, so I didn't pursue it and let him go," Cui E replied.

"Hahaha," Liu Yongxi laughed.

"If you want to visit, you can come at any time, why don't you take action without seeing people clearly, what if you kill people?" Liu Yongxi said with a smile on his face.
