Chapter 9: The Heavenly Pivot Pavilion
"Oh? What's the secret? ”
Su Jingqian lazily propped up his chin, his lips were slightly hooked, he looked like a demon who bewitched all beings, he stared quietly at the suddenly changing expression on her face, and smiled a little meaningfully.
A sly smile rippled on Lin Wanwan's cheeks, she swept away her previous annoyance, and her eyebrows showed a calm attitude, "Since it's a secret, how can you say it at will on the night of the moon?" Besides, it's also a bargaining chip for the moon, isn't it? ”
"You're kind of interesting."
The smile on Su Jingqian's face was as soft as the morning light, rendering his whole person as approachable, but a pair of eyes as deep as a cold pool under that smiling face were shining with a terrifying light, which made people instantly sober up from this fake gentleness, and they didn't dare to cross the rules at all.
"If I kill you now, your chips will be gone."
Lin Wanwan glanced at him calmly, and in the middle of her eyes, an undisguised provocative color revealed from the corner of her eye, so that the sneer that slowly floated at the corner of her lips was like a left-behind independent Manzhu Sahua, which made her whole person even more cold.
"Heh, Gongzi should know that if Yuewan dies here today, then don't say that tomorrow you are this Xuanji Tower, even if it is this Nanling City, I am afraid that you will not live so peacefully."
The smile on Su Jingqian's face did not decrease, but his eyes suddenly sank, and a sharp cold light shot out from the bottom of his eyes, "You threaten me?" Do you think I really don't dare touch you? ”
Lin Wanwan's red lips picked lightly, "You might as well give it a try." ”
Su Jingqian's face changed suddenly, and a flash instantly moved to Lin Wanwan, his slender fingers pinched her white and soft neck, and the face of the wind and sun just now was like thin ice, exuding a cold aura, and the powerful sense of oppression between the eyebrows seemed to shatter the soul of the person in front of him.
His eyes were as sharp as blades, staring at her coldly, and her eyes, which had always shone like stars, were also glaring at him like sharp swords at this time, not shying away from the hostility that appeared in his eyes.
The four eyes collided, like lightning and thunder, and it seemed that there were swords striking each other.
The distance between them was very close, so close that even Ziyu, who was stunned, didn't notice the dagger hidden in Lin Wanwan's wide sleeves, and the sharp tip of the knife was facing Su Jingqian's chest at this time, and there was no trace of shallow blood on the blood-colored robe.
The two did not shy away from looking directly into each other's eyes, and the complex emotions under their eyes gradually condensed into an invisible blade, mercilessly piercing their chests back and forth repeatedly.
Su Jingqian seemed to be angered by her movements, a fierce color flashed under his eyes, and the strength of his fingers unconsciously increased a little.
Lin Wanwan's face suddenly turned red, she glared at him angrily, and a wisp of mist had formed in her clear eyes, but the dagger in her hand did not pierce half a minute.
His eyes narrowed slightly, he suddenly let go of his hand, turned his back and said in a deep voice, "The reaction is not bad." ”
"Ahem...... Ahem...... Lin Wanwan clutched her chest and coughed several times before she gasped, "Thank you for the compliment." ”
With a wave of his long sleeves, the dagger turned upside down and was tucked into his sleeve.
"If you want to stay, let's stay."
Su Jingqian walked to the window with his hands down, facing out of the window, he couldn't see his expression at the moment, only heard his voice faintly, "Welcome to Tianshu Pavilion." ”
Tianshu Pavilion, the first assassination pavilion in the rivers and lakes, has stood in the rivers and lakes for more than 30 years, there are countless killers in the pavilion, and the identity of each killer is a mystery, only the pavilion owner knows his true identity. The killers assigned to each task are different, and as long as it is the business that Tianshu Pavilion is willing to take, there are almost no misses. This kind of reputation in the rivers and lakes has made many people squeeze their heads, whether they are buyers or killers.
Lin Wanwan pinched the palm that was still trembling slightly, it was already soaked with cold sweat, and she secretly breathed a big sigh of relief in her heart - the bet was won.
She eased her nerves and saluted Su Jingqian respectfully, "Thank you, son." ”
Su Jingqian's fingers lightly tapped on the window lattice a few times, glanced sideways at Ziyu who was standing aside, and ordered: "Take her to meet Le Yao and them, and by the way, let Le Yao tell her the rules in the pavilion." ”
"Yes."
"Retire on a monthly basis."
After Ziyu retreated with Lin Wanwan, Su Jingqian's face instantly became gloomy, he touched the wet mark on his chest, a little bit of red wrapped around his fingertips, and the look in his eyes changed several times, making it difficult to identify.
If her dagger is an inch further forward......
She didn't even do it.
But in the confrontation just now, he clearly saw the fleeting killing intent in her eyes.
Ziyu took Lin Wanwan into the backyard, came to a wall, and easily pressed the carved stamen on the right side of the wall, and then a very hidden secret door appeared on the wall.
Lin Wanwan was a little surprised, she had lived here for so long, and she didn't even find out that this was a secret door, no wonder the backyard of Xuanji Tower was empty but heavily guarded, and it was really the style of Tianshu Pavilion, hidden deep enough.
She followed Ziyu into the secret door, and everywhere she went was a courtyard.
"This mansion was secretly bought by the master, and it is specially used for the girls of Tianshu Pavilion to live and practice martial arts."
Ziyu looked at Lin Wanwan's surprised expression, and introduced to her with a smile, "There are a total of four Tianshu Pavilion killers in Xuanji Tower, they all live here on weekdays, and the master sometimes comes to live. This is also your future residence, and a maid will come and take you to the courtyard where you live in a while. ”
Lin Wanwan nodded, she looked around and carefully looked at the mansion.
When I looked up, I saw a hundred-year-old banyan tree growing in a corner of the courtyard, and the sunlight was spilling down from the gaps in the branches and leaves, and a stone table stood under the tree, and the mottled halo shook gently on it. There are four stone benches around the stone table, which is extremely quiet and elegant, which is suitable for drinking tea and listening to the wind and admiring the moon.
The house looks very large, with a faint view of the small courtyards leading to the winding verandah. The ground is very clean, and the flowers and plants are displayed in a unique style, just like Su Jingqian's study, which is clean and has a unique flavor, which is enough to see that this pavilion master is very particular.
She looked up at the towering Xuanji Tower not far away and smacked her lips. The concealment is also not bad, except for the fourth floor of the Xuanji Tower, you can see some of this courtyard, the other floors are not visible, and it is no wonder that the fourth floor of the Xuanji Tower will become the forbidden area of the Xuanji Tower.
She secretly admired in her heart, it was worthy of the handiwork of Tianshu Pavilion, and she could find such a place in the downtown - it seemed to be a few streets away from Xuanji Tower, and if she didn't come in, she wouldn't find that this courtyard was actually only separated by a wall from the backyard of Xuanji Tower. It is also worthy of being the Pavilion Master of the Tianshu Pavilion, so cautious, he can also monitor every move here at any time in the Xuanji Tower.
Lin Wanwan sorted out her thoughts, and asked Ziyu sideways, "Are those girls in Xuanji Tower on weekdays?" ”
Ziyu shook her head, "They rarely stay in Xuanji Tower, and they usually only perform to high-ranking officials and magnates in the building, like the cage girl will not even show up, only playing music through the screen." ”
She roughly knew in her heart that the killers of Tianshu Pavilion should only occasionally appear in Xuanji Tower, so that everyone would know that they were from Xuanji Tower, so that they could hide their true identity, so Tianshu Pavilion's branch in Nanling would be selected in Qinglou.
Ziyu saw Lin Wanwan's thoughtful expression, thought about it, and said, "Although the girl has entered the pavilion now, she is not familiar with the things in the pavilion. If you encounter any problems, you can ask these girls, they are not complicated people, you can talk with confidence. ”
Lin Wanwan nodded, and blessed Ziyu, "Thank you for mentioning it." ”
Ziyu hurriedly replied: "The girl doesn't have to salute me, the lord ......"
Before Ziyu could finish speaking, she was interrupted by a crisp and pleasant woman's laughter.
