Old Joe stood outside the door with a kettle, like a sculpture.

......

Li Xiu was in a coma for three days, and the people of Chang'an City still lived a life of firewood, rice, oil and salt during these three days.

But the major forces are not calm, and it can even be said that there is a dark tide.

Li Xiu's arrival has been concerned by all forces, hundreds of officials in the DPRK and China, the Jianghu family, and Chang'an City are a mixed place, and there are all kinds of people.

And Li Lai's death was very strange back then.

There is something behind this matter, and everyone knows it.

Because no one is holding them accountable, no one cares.

But Li Xiu returned.

The forces that had an irreversible relationship with Li Laizhi back then had hope of revenge, while those who had an enmity with Li Laizhi regarded him as a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh.

Li Xiu is just an ordinary person.

But it was this ordinary person who killed Captain Liu on the first day of returning to Chang'an, tearing through the veil that had been calm for fourteen years.

It's like throwing a pebble on the surface of the lake, the last straw that breaks the camel's back.

Li Xiu's arrival upset the balance maintained in Chang'an.

It's easy to put an end to this.

That is to kill Li Xiu.

It's a very risky approach, so the person who comes to do it must not only have the ability, but also be a dead man.

......

"Young Master, are you awake?"

Li Xiu on the bed opened his eyes, reached out to remove the towel from his forehead, and sat up.

Old Joe handed over a glass of boiled water.

Li Xiu stretched out his hand to take it, and then shook it.

He sighed helplessly.

"Xu Yingxiu, you come out for me. ”

Old Joe craned his shoulders and didn't speak, the room was very quiet, this scene looked very interesting, he seemed to be talking to himself.

"I'm mad if you don't come out again. ”

Li Xiu raised his eyebrows and said loudly.

Someone landed on the ground from the air, and there was a snapping sound when his feet hit the ground.

It's a deliberate sound.

Xu Yingxiu held the dust with both hands, put her back behind her waist, lowered her head and looked at the ground, and moved over one by one.

"Young Master. ”

She didn't dare to look up at Li Xiu directly, and she completely lost the pungency she had in front of Lao Qiao last night.

"Come on, come on. ”

Looking at the woman in front of him, Li Xiu opened his mouth, and wanted to say a few words, but the words that came to his mouth finally swallowed back into his stomach.

"Really?"

Xu Yingxiu raised her head suddenly, her bright eyes looked at him with a smile, and her face was as bright as a flower.

Li Xiu also laughed, nodded definitely, but said in his heart that this would be a city.

"Get out for a walk. ”

Li Xiu got up from the bed, moved his body, and then smacked his lips.

Pushing open the door, the weather outside was very good, the sun was shining in the sky, and even the snow on the roof had melted a lot, and the snow water was dripping down the eaves and falling to the ground.

"Brother Wang?"

Li Xiu walked step by step along the pavilion road, maybe he slept for too long, and he actually felt a rare relaxation.

Turning the corner, a girl came in front of her, who looked a little green, but she looked like a complete beauty embryo.

"Apricots. ”

Li Xiu looked at Li Xing'er and nodded slightly, he had never met this girl, so naturally he couldn't talk about disgust, but because of some things, he couldn't talk about cordiality.

"You're awake. ”

Xing'er's face showed a hint of surprise, and then she handed the nine hundred and ninety-nine paper cranes she was holding in her hand to Li Xiu, and said, "Brother Wang's illness is cured? ”

"You folded these?"

Li Xiu took the paper crane, looked at it, and asked.

Xing'er's face was a little red, obviously a little shy: "I heard the old Taoist priest in the south of the city say that the paper crane can pray for the blessing of relatives, so I gave it a try." ”

She kept her head down, her two small hands twitching her fingers.

Close relatives?

Li Xiu said: "Eighty percent of the old Taoist's words are false, don't believe it in the future." ”

The smile on Apricot Child's face disappeared a little, and her eyes seemed to dim a lot.

Li Xiu panicked for no reason in his heart, so he had to comfort him: "But this sentence is true." ”

"Brother Wang, can you please ask the old man not to kill my fish, I have been raising it for a long time. ”

Apricot suddenly whispered.

Li Xiuleng for a moment, only to find that the eyes of the girl in front of him seemed to be red and a little swollen.

He suddenly understood something.

Then said softly.

"I've done fish farming many times, do I want to help you?"

Xing'er looked up at him with some excitement when she heard this, and was about to say yes but her pupils shrank suddenly, and an exclamation suddenly came out of her mouth.

"Brother Wang, be careful. ”

Instinctively reacted, Li Xiu looked back suddenly, only to see a person standing on the roof of the palace, shrouded in a robe, was holding a bow and arrow aimed here, at the moment when Li Xing'er exclaimed that Li Xiu turned back, the cold iron arrow broke away from the bowstring and galloped over.

The arrow was powerful and fast.

The roof should be four hundred paces away from Li Xiu, and this arrow was shot in front of him.

Monk Yuno.

Li Xiu's pupils shrank a little, and he had experienced countless lives and deaths in Tingxue Tower, and he could have dodged this arrow, but behind him was Li Xing'er.

A moment of hesitation can change a lot of things.

And most importantly, even if he didn't dodge, the force of this arrow would shoot through his head and then down into Li Xing'er's throat.

The people who dared to kill him must have made perfect preparations, so at the moment when the iron arrow broke away, more than ten people appeared in the palace with long knives and swords and pounced from all directions, and all of them were strong people in the upper three levels.

Li Xiu's eyes were extremely cold.

A sword suddenly appeared in front of him, and then split the iron arrow, and then Old Joe's figure gradually became clear in the sunlight.

His clumsy body became erect, his thin right hand held the hilt of the sword, and his green shirt flew on his body.

His face did not fluctuate in the slightest, his face was expressionless, and he raised his hand and slashed the long sword into the sky.

The sunlight was torn to shreds, and numerous scratches appeared on the walls of the palace.

The bodies of the dozen or so people who pounced on them separated, their feet detached from their bodies, and their hands shattered into powder.

Each sword mark was in the shape of a cross, covering the inside and outside of the palace, and covering the corpses.

The man on the roof was shocked in his heart, and the clothes on his body emitted a pitch-black gas, and the whole person disappeared into Li Xiu's sight out of thin air.

Old Qiao took a step forward, and the three-foot Qingfeng in his hand let out a humming sound, blurring the sky, and the sunlight torn into pieces suddenly closed at this moment, falling from the sky and shining on the robe.

and shone on the man's forehead.

A faint cross appeared above his head, and the robe shattered into countless pieces, and before it could make a sound, it fell to the ground.

Blood flowed from the top of his head, staining the cross red.

Lao Qiao took a step back and followed behind Li Xiu again, the long sword was gone, and the body that was as tall as a pine before became rickety again.

"Young master, it's time to eat. ”

Li Xiu nodded, then took out a jade pendant from his waist and handed it to Li Xing'er, who was still in a daze.

Then he said: "If it's Xu Yingxiu's green pepper fish and potatoes, forget it, because it's really hard to eat." ”

"But you're still growing up as a snack. ”

Old Joe smiled.

Li Xiu glanced at him and was silent for a moment: "Then I'll eat again." ”
