The Heavenly Expeditionary Bird once again skimmed the Charm Mountain and fell into the sea of grass outside the North Shore City, the harsh winter has arrived, covering this piece of dense grass with a thick layer of snow, Xiao Qianye whispered to the big bird, so that it can hide its huge body with the color of the snow, and then walked into the city with Yun Xiao and the two, at this time it was sunset, and the North Shore City, which had experienced the tsunami disaster, was still in a depression, and the damaged buildings had not been completely repaired.

This winter is really cold, not only the climate, but also the hearts of the people, wooden planks, stone bricks piled up in the streets and alleys, Ruochang Street only pulled up a few night lights, workers in groups of three or five together silently eating dinner.

Xiao Qianye pulled his collar up, lowered his head and strode quickly, Yun Xiao didn't dare to come out, he kept holding his arm and his heart was pounding, fortunately, the current North Shore City is no longer the city that never sleeps a few months ago, and there are not many people in the broken city, and no one notices that the two people in a hurry quietly and silently turned into the largest restaurant in the center - Xiao Qin Lou by taking advantage of the increasingly dim dusk.

The moment he pushed the door in, Xiao Qianye found that this magnificent restaurant had not changed much, as if the earth-shattering tsunami had not caused much damage to it, but the platform of the central dancing girl had been demolished, and the dazzling glass lamp was no longer fueled by spiritual magic, the lobby looked a lot more spacious, and the entire restaurant was empty, and all the guests were dismissed in advance in order to welcome them.

Xiao Qianye breathed a sigh of relief, after hearing the words "old place" from Gongsun Yan's mouth, he had been thinking about it secretly, and the most likely place to go was undoubtedly one of the strongholds of the Wind Demon, Xiao Qinlou.

Sure enough, before he could continue to think about it, a voice came from the second floor, Jiang Xingze hurriedly put on a dress and jumped down the stairs, seeing these two people who had not seen him for a long time, his face was immediately full of smiles, he hurriedly rushed over with an arrow, and said happily: "I have been waiting for the two of you here for more than a long time, and the time is almost tonight, come on, come on, it's still the room where Miss Yun lived before, I have ordered someone to prepare clean clothes and snacks, go and rest." ”

Xiao Qianye was a little surprised at first, and the current landlord was replaced by his younger brother Jiang Xingze, but after thinking about it, Jiang Zhuzhou should still stay in the imperial capital, and it was indeed reasonable to replace him.

Jiang Xingze was originally the owner of Youhuang Building in Haishi, but now he suddenly changed from the owner of the Qinglou to the owner of the restaurant, but he himself was a little unaccustomed to it, he glanced at the empty hall embarrassedly, as if he suddenly remembered someone, and hurriedly shouted at the high-rise building on the second floor: "Xiaoshuang! Xiaoshuang, come down quickly, the guests have arrived, you are up quickly!"

He shouted several times in a row, and a little girl hurriedly ran down from the room on the second floor, looking like she had just woken up, and even the buttons of her clothes were crooked, she stumbled down, and jumped in front of Yun Xiao, and then grinned hard at the two of them with a very friendly smile, leaned over and said: "It's Xiao Pavilion Lord and Miss Yun, my name is Hua Xiaoshuang, I am the person of the Wind Demon, you can just call me Xiaoshuang, Your Majesty has instructed, if you have any needs during this time, just tell me." ”

Xiao Qianye looked at this smiling flattering little girl, and couldn't help but pout, Jiang Xingze dragged the reckless Hua Xiaoshuang back to his side, and glanced at her again and again, Hua Xiaoshuang looked strange, and didn't know what the other party meant, the two stood there for a while, Jiang Xingze pinched her embarrassedly, and scolded in a low voice: "Lead the way......"

"Oh...... Oh. Hua Xiaoshuang understood the meaning in his eyes, and muttered, "I was originally here to lead the way, but after looking at me for a long time, I thought there was something else." ”

Yun Xiao was amused by the inexplicable actions of the two, and her nervous mood relaxed a lot, Hua Xiaoshuang saw her laughing, and said "ah" lightly, her body had involuntarily moved towards Yun Xiao's side, regardless of the fact that the two were just meeting for the first time, she grabbed her hand and put it on her chest, Yun Xiao was startled by her movements, and saw that Hua Xiaoshuang's eyes were shining brightly, and it turned out to be a look of extreme envy and admiration, and her face became red, and she muttered with words in her mouth:" Landlord, they really look like it!"

"Like what?" Yun Xiao was infected by the smile on the little girl's face, and felt that the other party was not malicious, but asked curiously, Jiang Xingze frowned and coughed hard, and threw her aside with Hua Xiaoshuang's collar in one hand, and hurriedly smiled in a good voice, "Girl, don't pay attention to her, she didn't arrange it for Her Majesty, I just heard that I have to come over to see you." ”

Hua Xiaoshuang unwillingly pushed Jiang Xingze away, continued to come to Yun Xiao's side, and said with an obsessive face: "I happened to be playing in Yudu at that time in the mirage, but they disliked me and didn't let me come to Xiaoqin Tower, so I walked around the beach alone, and then rushed ashore like crazy after strolling around the giant ao, at that time I thought I was dead, who knew that a fire flew from the direction of the Charm Mountain, it was a phoenix burning with flames!" On its back stood a man with a fiery sword in his hand, and with a single sword, it sent the giant turtle back into the sea!"

Yun Xiao was stunned for a moment, naturally knew who the person in her mouth was, only to see Hua Xiaoshuang's eyes rolled up slightly, and her smiling cheeks were like a bright flower, and she couldn't extricate herself from her fantasy for a long time, Jiang Xingze waved her hand helplessly, and continued: "After she escaped that day, she was fascinated by Lord Feng Ji and lost her soul, and I heard that you are the sister of Lord Feng Ji, so she cried and clamored that she must come to see her, if you are annoyed by her, I will rush her back in a while." ”

"Don't! don't drive me back!" Hua Xiaoshuang came back to her senses instantly, hurriedly grabbed Yun Xiao's arm and was reluctant to let go, Yun Xiao looked at this innocent little girl with obsession and admiration on her face, but she was not disgusted at all, but had an inexplicable joy, and simply grabbed her hand, and the two walked upstairs with a smile.

"Hey......" Jiang Xingze was stunned, he had been in the Qinglou for many years and thought that he knew a lot about women, but at this time, he couldn't understand the unbelievable behavior of the two women in front of him, he stiffly turned his head to look at Xiao Qianye, who was as calm as ever, and couldn't help blurting out, "Pavilion Master Xiao doesn't care if you go with her?"

Xiao Qianye smiled and didn't speak, such scenes and questions seemed to have popped out of Mr. Luo Ling's mouth not long ago, but I didn't expect that in addition to the beacon fire, the wind demon actually had a little girl who didn't know anything, Hua Xiaoshuang?

To this day, he still can't figure out what they liked when the crown prince wooed this group of people, if Gongsun Yan and Xiao Yibai are the most cordial people around him, and they can protect him in the imperial capital city as a matter of course, Luo Ling can also be regarded as a man of the hour who controls the eight trade roads of the Eastern Underworld. Da is hidden in the city, and it may be useful at critical moments, even Feiying and Chiqing are all equipped with stunts, but that Beacon Fire and this Hua Xiaoshuang, no matter how he looks at it, it only looks like an existence that will drag his feet.

Thinking that he had been chasing the wanted criminals of the "Wind Demon" for many years as the master of the military pavilion, and that there were still such ordinary people in the family, Xiao Qianye actually laughed a little secretly, and unconsciously let out a long sigh.

Jiang Xingze couldn't understand what the smile that suddenly appeared on his face meant, but seeing that Xiao Qianye had no intention of going upstairs to rest, he asked, "Does Pavilion Master Xiao have anything else to do?"

"Hmm. Xiao Qianye came back to his senses, turned around and looked out the window, after all, it was winter, and the sky quickly fell into darkness as soon as dusk passed, and the number of travelers in North Shore City decreased greatly after the tsunami, and many businesses were in a depression, so they simply closed the door early and turned off the lights to go to sleep, Jiang Xingze saw that he had been looking outside, and couldn't help frowning, and asked hesitantly: "Should you be...... You're going to get out, right?"

Xiao Qianye thought about it, knowing that his identity was a little risky to go out now, but when he saw Yun Xiao upstairs again, he was still heartbroken, and said in a low voice: "I want to go out and buy something, does the owner of Jiang Lou know where else in the city is open now?"

"Buzhuang?" Jiang Xingze didn't come back to his senses for a long time when he asked such an abrupt sentence, and said with a babbling mouth, "I have already prepared a change of clothes, they are all high-quality materials, and they are kept in the room, why does Pavilion Master Xiao still want to go to Buzhuang?"

Xiao Qianye didn't reply, Jiang Xingze glanced at him, and found that the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and there was a shy luster in his eyes that kept shaking, this time it attracted his interest, Jiang Xingze squinted his eyes slightly, and smiled and came closer, after all, he had been crawling in a place like Haishi for many years, and such an obvious emotional change was quickly noticed by him, he deliberately lowered his voice, tried to squeeze out a smile on his lips, and deliberately pushed Xiao Qianye: "Pavilion Master Xiao doesn't want to buy clothes for Miss Yun?" What's the matter, do you suspect that my eyes are not good-looking?"

Xiao Qianye snorted lightly, the corners of his mouth raised, and he retorted without showing weakness: "Lord Jiang has been in the land of fireworks for so many years, I am really worried that the clothes you picked are not suitable." ”

"You ......" Jiang Xingze was speechless by his words, but after all, he was used to seeing the world, so he immediately reacted to the other party's true purpose, and did not directly expose it, but jumped around the back of the counter for a long time, and then smiled and handed over the two masks, "This is the mask left from the mirage before, in a gathering place for outsiders like North Shore City, it is not uncommon to wear a mask, if the Lord of the Xiao Pavilion wants to please the beauties, why don't you let him accompany him, how about a staff officer?"

Xiao Qianye took the mask from his hand, directly put it on his face, and pushed the door out.

Jiang Xingze was directly ignored, angry and funny, and chased him out, the streets of the North Shore City were not as prosperous as before, only a few scattered wall lamps, reflecting the already dilapidated city and even more deserted, Jiang Xingze quickened his pace and walked side by side with him, muttering unhappily: "What are you doing walking so fast? The city now has changed a lot compared to a few months ago, if you want to find the previous few big cloth villages, you will definitely have to eat closed." ”

When Xiao Qianye heard this, he stopped for a moment, Jiang Xingze looked at the stern and helpless eyes under the mask, took a few steps forward with a smile, stretched out his hand and pointed to another road and said: "Let's try your luck here, there is a Su embroidery workshop, the owner is from Feiyuan, and his wife is from Suzhou, Central Plains, if you want to give a gift to Miss Yun, his family should be the most suitable for the entire North Shore City." ”

Hearing the words "Central Plains Suzhou", Xiao Qianye's heart moved, and followed Jiang Xingze into this small street, this is not the main street of North Shore City, and the store is not as prosperous as the area of Central Avenue, but there are many small and exquisite shops in a row in the past, Jiang Xingze hummed a little song happily, in a good mood, and said: "Lord Xiao Ge surprised me, you are now a wanted criminal, you actually came out to run around at night in order to buy a dress, what kind of clothes do you want, wedding dress?"

He secretly glanced back at Xiao Qianye, even though he couldn't see his expression through the mask, there was a slight smile between the other party's eyebrows, which seemed to confirm that his guess was right.

Jiang Xingze coughed lightly, but he was a little embarrassed, his brows tightened into his ear and persuaded him repeatedly: "Marriage and wedding clothes may not be bought...... Marriage is the most important thing in a woman's life, and it must be tailored in advance, how can you buy it when you say so? Moreover, and that kind of clothes are very gorgeous and conspicuous, you are fugitives, don't make it too eye-catching. ”

"That's pretty much, she told me a long time ago that she loves that red. Xiao Qianye looked indifferent, but he suddenly remembered the red plums everywhere in the Kunlun Snow Valley when he was young, and his smile also brought a trace of bitterness and helplessness.
