Chapter 55: The Argument of the Ear

The moon is in the sky.

Zhang Fan and Shadow walked out of Liu Haozi's house, Zhang Fan's pace was fast, he didn't say a word to Shadow, and Shadow gently closed the door of the house.

This night, the shadow knew that it must be a quiet night, and the shadow saw Zhang Fan's figure walking towards the entrance of the West Village, which is the only way for people from Guzhou.

Under the moonlight, Zhang Fan dragged a shadow behind him, this was his own figure in the moonlight, not the shadow of drinking.

The shadow hid his figure in a large ginkgo tree, and his eyes looked at Liu Haozi's mansion like owls, this place he had been paying attention to for a long time, this place could see the whole of the mansion.

The tree was next to the gate of the house, and the shadow found a very comfortable trunk, and the branches and leaves on this trunk were just enough to block the shadow's figure, and he covered his sword with his clothes, and leaned against the ginkgo tree.

The night began to pass in a long and lonely way.

After the last restless dog in Nishimura stopped barking, Shadow opened his eyes and he pricked up his ears.

The shadow heard very light footsteps, and these footsteps came to the courtyard of Liu Haozi's house, and the shadow saw that these people were all dressed in black.

They climbed on the gate of the house, and they listened to the movement in the courtyard, and their figures were very mysterious in the moonlight.

The shadow in the tree overhears a conversation, "Boss, burn them?"

"I'll go and see if they're asleep. ”

"This kid's sword is very powerful, I'm afraid we are not his opponents? ”

"Be quiet, you kid wants to die. ”

"Boss, you don't want that kid's sword?"

"This kid killed our people at the entrance of the village, that girl's throwing knife is very powerful, we have to be careful. ”

The shadow in the tree didn't want to listen to their conversation anymore, and he saw that the candle in the living room had been extinguished, and it was time for him to make a move.

The figure of the shadow floated silently from the sky, his figure was like an autumn leaf, very light and light, but his speed was fast, and his figure fell behind the last man in black in the blink of an eye.

The last man in black heard the sound of inhalation behind him, and the man turned his head, and saw a face in the moonlight, this face with a kind smile.

"That's why you cut off their ears. Ning Er interjected at this moment, interrupting the shadow's narration, and she felt that this reason was very far-fetched.

"Yes, isn't that a good reason?" asked Shadow. He looked at the girl in front of him, this girl was a little silly and cute.

"What do their ears have to do with this story?" Ning'er was still asking, she felt a little aggrieved,

Ning Er felt that this morning was the most aggrieved morning.

Li Qing was laughing when she saw her this morning, and after she listened to the story told by the shadow, she still didn't understand the origin of the ear, but Li Qing seemed to catch her laughter, and he wanted to laugh when he saw Ning Er's face.

"Your story is very good, I like this story," Li Qing said with a smile, he looked at the dishes on the table and smiled.

"Laugh at you big-headed ghost," Ning Er still found an excuse to scold Li Qing, this sentence worked very well, and Li Qing immediately closed his mouth.

The man in black who turned his head turned around, put his index finger on his mouth, made a quiet gesture, and quickly turned his head to look at the men in black in front of him.

But he quickly turned his head again, and the man clearly remembered that he was the last one here, and there should not be a person behind him, but he did see a person just now.

The man turned around and drew his knife in his hand, he craned his neck and looked around carefully, he wanted to find this man.

He felt a gentle tap on the back of his shoulder, and the man's knife stabbed back from under his waist, and he wanted to stab the smiling man to death.

The moment the knife stabbed out, he saw a person fall in front of his eyes, this is an ordinary face, and this face still has a smile.

The man put his index finger to his mouth and made a quiet gesture, and the man's pupils began to widen, and he heard the screams of his accomplices in the back.

The voice was very low, a low voice made by covering his mouth with his hand, and the injured man quickly turned his head and looked at the man behind him.

The man who turned his head knew that there was a person behind him, this was his own person, and he wanted to slap the person behind him because his knife stabbed him in the back.

But he saw two people, and his accomplice was facing a strange face, which was terrible in the moonlight.

"I don't want to hear your story," Ning'er interrupted Shadow's story again, she was a girl, and she didn't like to hear ghost stories like this.

"This story is actually very good, this is the reason why he didn't sleep all night," Li Qing already understood the story that happened last night.

The shadow of this story is the protagonist, and he staged a story belonging to the shadow in the dark night, but Li Qing still heard Ning Er's complaint, "This matter has nothing to do with you." ”

Li Qing felt that Ning'er's attitude had changed too quickly, and her face was like the moon last night, cloudy and sunny.

"You are a 'afraid wife'," the shadow said a truth that adults understand, and this truth happened to be understood by Li Qing and Ning Er, and Ning Er immediately blushed.

Ke Ning'er still didn't want to give up the question just now, she still looked at the shadow, she wanted to know the story of this ear from the shadow's mouth.

"Do you really want to know?" Shadow looked at Ning'er.

"Yes!" replied Ning'er.

"I don't want to!" Li Qing refused quickly, he knew that this story was not good at all, this story must be very cruel, but he immediately attracted a roll of Ning Er's eyes.

"Actually, it's their fault, they wanted to eavesdrop on a man and a girl, so I cut off their ears," Shadow said this, stood up, and picked up the sword that was placed on the table.

Ning'er never spoke again, she was a big girl, and she began to regret asking Shadow such a thing, and a fool could hear the meaning of this sentence.

At this time, Ning'er heard footsteps outside the living room, and she turned around to see someone coming, who came with a broken arm, and he was holding a kettle for boiling water, and the pot was steaming.

"Why don't you eat it?" asked Severed Arm, who walked in.

"Let's go, let's go out, it's a pity that it's such a good ear," the shadow turned and walked out of the living room, and the laughter of the shadow was immediately heard in the courtyard, and the shadow left Liu Haozi's house with a smile.

"Am I a little stupid?" Li Qing heard Ning Er's weak question, and he had no way to answer it.

This was a very incomprehensible sentence that Broken Arm heard, and he showed his large gold teeth, and he followed the shadow figure out of the living room, as if he also knew that this place was not for him to stay.

"Let's go to his vegetable garden now, and find the person who will emerge from the soil," Li Qing quickly broke the embarrassment of the scene.

So soon, in Liu Haozi's vegetable garden, Li Qing and Ning Er appeared, standing on the side of the corridor, looking at the cucumber shelf in front of them.

"The person I saw that day came out of here, could he have escaped?" Ning Er's eyes looked at the ground carefully.

"He doesn't hide it, but he hides it well. Li Qing suddenly remembered Su Hai's cellar, which was hidden under his wooden barrel.

It was a big wooden barrel, the barrel was just enough to hold Su Hai's chubby body, and the cunning Su Hai was like a rabbit, and he learned to be cunning three holes.

"We should hide," Ning'er said, with her head down.

"Why are you hiding?" asked Li Qing.

"Qing'er, we should hide, as long as he dares to come out, we will definitely be able to catch him. Ning'er looked very smart.

Li Qing was stunned for a moment, this Ning'er returned to her gentleness again, and at this moment she spoke in a very soft voice, as if she was afraid of scaring away this person who could come out of the soil.

Li Qing looked at Ning'er beside him, he wanted to say a word, but he took it back, he didn't know this sentence, what attitude would this fickle girl have?

"You shouldn't treat Shadow like that, Shadow is a good swordsman," Ning Er, who bowed her head, suddenly burst out with a sentence, and her face turned slightly red as she spoke.

"How do you know he's a good guy?" asked Li Qing casually.

"His sword is also very fast, can you really hold his sword?" Ning Er asked again, this sentence avoiding the previous topic.

"I don't know," Li Qing replied.

"You seem to know that the sword he stabbed out won't kill you?" Ning Er raised her head this time and looked at Li Qing with a puzzled look.

"At least he won't kill me now, although my head is very valuable," Li Qing remembered the guy who was striking iron at Nishimurakou.

This guy is not the guy he saw for the first time, but this guy is in Zhang Fan's blacksmith shop, he, this guy is also very familiar with the blacksmith shop, and he also knows that Li Qing will definitely come to the West Village.

This Zhang Fan is a bit mysterious, every time he appears, it is a coincidence, and this coincidence just happens to resolve the last doubt.

"What's the use of them collecting so many ears? Is it because they're eavesdropping?" Ning'er asked Li Qing, the topic was a little sensitive.

"What should they be looking for? This thing happens to be on the ear," Li Qing figured out the question now, but unfortunately he didn't ask the shadow just now.

"You're such an elm pimple!" Ning Er sighed softly, she felt that Li Qing was deliberately pretending to be stupid, but he didn't seem to be stupid.

"It's a nice name, I like it," Li Qing smiled, but he smiled very reservedly, his gaze began to condense, and his gaze turned to the fence gate of the vegetable garden.

Li Qing heard footsteps at this moment, these footsteps were chaotic, but they came quickly, and the fence gate of the vegetable garden was pushed open in an instant, and many people came in the vegetable garden in an instant.

These men and women, young and old, carried baskets of vegetables in their hands and all kinds of farm hoes in their hands.

They rushed to all corners of the vegetable garden as fast as they could, and started the busy harvest, and none of them cared about Li Qing and Ning'er in front of them.

In just an instant, the garden becomes a lively place, filled with all kinds of sounds.

Li Qing even heard the barking of a puppy.
