Hongli City, Ouye's shop.

At noon, there were no pedestrians in front of the shop, and there were no customers in the shop. Qingluo was dozing off in front of the counter, while Beidou was sorting out the iron goods in the back warehouse.

Although the Ouyejia has declined a lot, the reputation of the signboard is still there, and the things sold, from weapons to kitchen knives and iron pots, are of first-class quality, so this shop is more than enough to support Qingluo's family.

If there are no major changes, Qingluo's life will probably always be like this, poor but leisurely, busy but fulfilling.

Li Yunsheng's words yesterday actually had a great impact on her, she has always been a person who knows the world but not the world, which Tang Beidou is very similar to her.

She has always been very aware that the Sixth Uncle's family, as well as the palace guard Bai Yu, have bad intentions towards her and her family, but in her opinion, these people are at most a little insatiable, and they want to take advantage of the down-and-out Ouye family.

And in the words that Li Yunsheng let him hear yesterday, the Immortal Alliance's malice towards his Ouye family was to completely engulf and wipe out their family, leaving no way for her and his grandfather to live, and even keeping them until now is just to investigate the legendary secrets of the Ouye family.

She never thought that she and her grandfather would be involved in such a long-planned conspiracy.

So until this morning, she was still a little panicked and at a loss.

However, because of Li Yunsheng's comfort before leaving, and the bowl of bean curd that Beidou bought from the street, she resettled down.

Especially the bowl of bean curd, after drinking this bowl of bean curd, I regained the feeling of being an ordinary and inconspicuous ordinary person.

That's right, she is an ordinary girl who looks forward to the bowl of bean curd from Zhang's mother in the east of the city every morning, dealing with all kinds of difficulties of customers in the store every day, arguing for a penny of silver, and dividing her day's rations because of sympathy for the begging homeless people in front of the store, and dozing off on the counter like this when she is free.

Returning to this familiar feeling, she could finally put yesterday's uneasiness behind her.

"Senior sister, junior sister!"

Just as the sleepy green raise's head was about to hit the counter, a figure rushed into the store, and then shouted in a hurry.

The sleepy-eyed Qingluo raised her head, and after a short trance, she finally saw the appearance of the person in front of her.

"Why are you here again, are the city guards so idle?"

She looked at the other party with some disgust and frowned:

"Also, stop calling me junior sister, you have long been expelled from my grandfather. ”

It turned out that the person who hurriedly broke into the store was none other than her former fellow brother, who is now Bai Yu, the city guard of Hongli City.

This white feather has always coveted Qingluo, basically every three or five will come to visit, although Qingluo is disgusted, but not very surprised.

"Senior sister, it's not right for you to say that, one day is a teacher and a father for life, even if I just be your senior brother for one day, I am still a senior brother. ”

For Qingluo's cynicism, Bai Yu was not surprised at all.

"Senior sister, you won't still be angry about what happened that day, right? Your senior brother and I are also forced to do it, your sixth uncle bought off the people of the Immortal League, and I was just acting on orders, if I had known that he had done things so desperately, I would definitely not have helped and abused him like this. ”

He was heartbroken.

"Alright, this is over, if you have nothing to do, go ahead. ”

I didn't want to say a superfluous word to the person in front of me.

"Senior sister, you are not authentic, your senior brother and I came to report the news for you this time. ”

Bai Yu still stood in front of the counter and refused to leave.

"Did your family take in a homeless child from Qinglian Mansion in Yingzhou?"

He whispered mysteriously into Qingluo's ear.

The white feather was so close, Qingluo instinctively wanted to dodge, but when she heard the words "homeless child", she looked a little nervous and stunned there.

"What nonsense are you talking about, that's my distant cousin, who has nothing to do with the eight poles of Qinglian Mansion, and he is not a homeless person. ”

However, Qingluo reacted immediately and retorted with a displeased face.

"Don't, don't, don't, junior sister, you don't have to quibble in front of senior brother, I don't care what the identity of that kid is. ”

Bai Yu waved his hand again and again.

"I just feel a little sorry for you because of what happened last time, so I'm here to remind you, so that the kid is okay and don't go out, the recent investigation will be very strict. ”

His face became solemn and he said.

"Hongli City has always been like this for the homeless people?"

Qingluo pretended to be calm.

"This time is different. ”

Bai Yu shook his head, then looked at the sky outside the house and said:

"In another half an hour, the city lord will execute a group of displaced people who have escaped from Qinglian Mansion in front of the Iron Fort in the name of executing the remnants of Qiushui. ”

"Bell!"

As soon as Bai Yu's words came out, there was a sudden loud "clang" in the warehouse behind Qingluo.

"What's going on?"

Bai Yu frowned and stretched out his head to look at the warehouse behind Qingluo.

"It's nothing, it should be in the warehouse, something hasn't been put down and fallen. ”

Qingluo said calmly.

"Okay, your senior brother and I have said it all, you'd better be careful these days, it's not very peaceful inside and outside the city. ”

Saying that, Bai Yu waved his hand and didn't say anything more and left the shop.

He came over this time, as if he was really just to give Qingluo a wake-up call.

As soon as Bai Yu left, Qingluo immediately closed the door of the shop, and then turned around and entered the warehouse.

"What's wrong?"

She walked towards Beidou with a worried face, only Beidou was in the warehouse just now, and the sound must have been made by him.

"I'm fine, it was this hammer that accidentally fell off. ”

Beidou stood next to one of the shelves in the warehouse, and he smiled lightly.

Although Beidou's face was relaxed, Qingluo, who had been with him for so long, could still see that he was lying, because when Beidou was lying, the fingers of his left and right hands would unconsciously twist together.

She took a closer look at Beidou, and then finally followed his slight trembling right foot and found the blood stain on his toe.

"Your feet are all smashed and bleeding, and you say it's okay!"

Qingluo is distressed and has a good airway.

"This little injury, I'm fine, Sister Qingluo. ”

Seeing Qingluo squatting down to help him take off his shoes, Beidou hurriedly took a few steps back.

"Stand there and don't move!"

Qingluo scolded with a straight face, then took a bottle of trauma medicine from the counter, and a hurried cloth and walked in.

"Sit down. ”

She placed a chair behind Beidou and said in a commanding tone.

"I'm really fine......"

Beidou was still trying to struggle, but was pressed by Qingluo and sat on the chair.

"You're usually very careful, how could you be smashed today. ”

Qingluo asked while giving Beidou medicine.

"It's a little distracted. ”

Beidou Road.

"You heard what Bai Yu said, don't worry, there are so many homeless people in the city, I can't find your head. ”

Green Radix Road.

"I'm worried I'm going to get distracted. ”

Beidou shook his head.

"So what are you worried about?"

Qingluo, who had finished the medicine and was about to bandage it, looked up and asked puzzled.

"I'm worried...... My daddy. ”

After hesitating for a moment, Beidou still spoke.

"Your daddy?"

Qingluo was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then suddenly realized:

"Oh, you mean the outcasts who are going to be executed, right? Where could it be so coincidental that your father wouldn't be in there. ”

"I'm still not at ease. ”

Beidou shook his head.

"Sister Qingluo, I want to go to the Iron Castle to have a look. ”

He looked at Qingluo with a pleading expression.
