Yuzhu and Shen Zhou walked back to the study, but they didn't see Chu Zhixia's figure, only to see the white cat being circled around the neck by a pink ribbon and tied to the table legs. This cat is used to following Shen Zhouye, how can he stand this, and even pounce and tear the ribbon, but in vain.

Yuzhu smiled helplessly, "Sometimes I think the eldest lady is not as mature as seventeen years old, and sometimes I think she is still so childish." ”

Shen Zhou cut the ribbon, and the white cat immediately came up to him and rubbed him, meowing and shouting like a complaint. Yuzhu closed the window of the study, and the wind before the rain carried the fishy smell of earth, blowing the books on the table.

Shen Zhou looked at the ashes in the copper basin - the ashes of the burned paper, almost scattered by the wind.

"Where did Changle go?" A certain nerve in Shen Zhou's brain tightened for no reason.

"I don't know, maybe it's awkward."

Yuzhu sorted out the letters on the table, and said in a rambling voice: "Since you are determined not to go back, let her be let be, so that she can rest assured." You don't know that she hasn't been able to sleep well for more than a year. I had a dream that you had your throat cut and thrown into a pond, and the next day you had someone fill up the lotus pond in the Akiba Mountain House. ”

"You're having a hard time, and she's not having a good time." Yuzhu paused and said, "Why are you two so troubled?" ”

Shen Zhou didn't speak, as if he was thinking about something to the ashes in the copper basin. In the middle of the night, he got up and groped for the door and window of the study, and after a while, he felt a little trace on the window lattice, which was very deep, pierced by a dart, and the color was still new.

Chu Zhixia instructed Yuzhu to call him over, but during this period, he received a secret letter and went out to make an appointment - no, there was no residual temperature in the copper basin, and the cat was also taken away by Chu Shixia in the morning, and the letter was not received temporarily.

Chu Zhixia deliberately separated the two people.

Who would Shen Zhou and Yuzhu vehemently oppose her visit?

Shen Zhou's heart beat violently, as if it was about to crush his ribs.

He jerked to his feet and rushed out the door.

——

Businesses on the streets closed their doors and windows to escape the ensuing storm. The eaves of Binzhou tend to grow longer than other places to prevent rain from being blown into the house. Chu Shixia knocked on the door of a down-and-out teahouse, and the door opened.

The teahouse was lit with lights, and it was as bright as day. Chu Zhixia could easily see the three people on the railing on the second floor, as well as the middle-aged man in white sitting in the middle of the downstairs. The man smiled at her and beckoned her to sit.

"I've admired my name for a long time, Miss Chu." The man said, "My surname is Luo, and my single name is 'Shi' and I am the head of the Jiuyou Siluo clan. Darkness is the best weapon of an assassin, and I treat guests with a beacon, and I hope that Miss Chu will understand my sincerity. ”

Chu Zhixia was noncommittal, and sat down opposite him calmly, smelling a faint fragrance of tea, "Good tea." I thought that people in the rivers and lakes rarely drank tea, and they mostly drank alcohol. ”

"It's because of the Juggernaut, right?" Luo Shi was not shocked when he mentioned the name of this Nine Shadows Division, which everyone heard about, "Li Qing's white swordsmanship is unique in the world, and he loves wine and is as famous as his swordsmanship. ”

"What's the matter with me?" Chu Zhixia didn't want to fight with him, so he asked bluntly, "The Mountain Ghost Clan wants to kill me, but you are willing to save me, don't tell me that it is because of the sinking boat that you have compassion." I know you Assassins don't grow this stuff. ”

"You seem to be very hostile to us, because of the sinking boat?" Luo Shi rolled up his sleeves and smiled like a spring breeze, "That's a good child, but it's too rebellious." If it weren't for Li Qingbai and you, he would be better off than he is now. ”

Chu Zhixia lifted his eyelids and glanced at him without being salty or indifferent, and that look seemed to say, "Are you a fool to me?"

Luo Shi was unmoved, and naturally said: "In the Nine Shadows, a talented child like Shen Zhou will survive. Killing people is as normal for them as eating and drinking, and they will not understand pain, fear, and inability to ask for the rest of their lives. If it weren't for Li Qingbai taking him away, Shen Zhou would not feel that he was an outlier because of his cold-bloodedness, let alone fear death for anyone. To be alive sometimes requires more courage than death. ”

"He is worthy of being the head of the house, and he speaks like he sings a song." Chu Zhi Xia Pi smiled and said, "This kind of good thing, why don't you go first?" To put it bluntly, it's a puppet with a heartless eye, do you call it life? ”

Luo Shi sighed regretfully, "You don't approve of it, I can understand it." The ideas planted in childhood will accompany people throughout their lives, like you, like a sinking boat. ”

"If you called me here today just to discuss the sinking boat with me, then you don't have to." Chu Zhixia said coldly.

"It's really to discuss the sinking boat with you, and it's not just the sinking boat." Luo Shi's words changed, "You've already seen the people of the Mountain Ghost Clan, right?" ”

Chu Zhixia nodded casually and commented meanly: "There is more than yin damage, but there is not enough bravery." I thought that only those who fought wars would use wheel warfare, and assassins were particular about killing with one hit, but I didn't expect there to be such a simple and crude assassin. ”

Luo Shi agreed with this precise sarcasm, and said with satisfaction: "The Nine Shadows Division is divided into two divisions, the north and the south, the mountain ghost clan dominates the north, and the Luo clan dominates the south. But a long time ago, we were actually family. After Li Qingbai destroyed many of Luo's strongholds, we had to recuperate. ”

Chu Zhixia was noncommittal, thinking to himself why my master didn't serve you at that time.

"Now that the Mountain Ghost Clan wants to unify the Nine Shadows, the first task is to exterminate the Luo Clan's forces. The ten ghosts fell, and only a frost coat and a sinking boat remained, but they still made the mountain ghost clan unable to advance an inch in the south of the Yangtze River. In order to break the current situation, the mountain ghost clan has found a new reliance. ”

Chu Zhixia's eyelids jumped, and he thought of the night when he captured the "Guanyin Dashi Tu", the assassin of the Nine Shadows Division who chased him out of the Chen family - at that time, the Luo clan and the mountain ghost clan had not yet torn their faces, and the two sides still shared the silver ghost mask, but since they were in the north, most of them were people from the mountain ghost clan.

In Anyang County, there was a person who robbed the thief king Biao out of prison and was shot blind in one eye by Chu Zhixia. The person who instructed the guards of Anyang County to kill people was Xu Delu, and Xu Delu and the regent both wanted Chu Zhixia and Bai Ziche to die in the south - it is difficult to say that the person of unknown origin was not an assassin of the Mountain Ghost Clan, after all, his body was extremely strange, and even Wang Biao's death was just their vote.

Luo Shi and Chu Zhixia looked at each other and smiled knowingly, "It seems that you have already thought of it." In the near future, the imperial court will intervene in our fight, and the Luo clan will not choose to lie dormant like last time, because this time the opponent is the one who knows us best. ”

"What do you want?" Chu Zhixia pressed his hands on the table, leaned back slightly, and looked at Luo Shi, who was harmless to humans and animals.

"Don't be so vigilant, the mountain ghost clan is unkind, and don't blame me for being unjust. The Mountain Ghost Clan chooses the King of Qin, and I choose the King of Qi - or rather, you are chosen. Luo Shi smiled.

Chu Shixia didn't fully believe that Luo Shi was by no means a living bodhisattva who was willing to give. Behind every sentence that seems to take advantage of a big advantage, there is a heart-scratching additional condition. And Chu Zhixia had already vaguely guessed what his conditions were.

"Let Shen Zhou go with me."

"Impossible." Chu Zhixia replied without thinking.

Luo Shi was unmoved, and then continued: "Three years, as long as it takes three years, maybe he will come back before the plague in Binzhou is over." Although I don't like Li Qingbai meddling in Luo's children, I can't deny that Shen Zhou is indeed a sane child. An ignorant and fearless child can only be an assassin, but a pure assassin cannot go on for long with the Nine Shadows. ”

"The head of the Luo family, it has been like this from generation to generation."

"I was so touched to see the book on the list, thank you readers for your support!"
