Chapter 4: The Mysterious Woman
"Brother Lin was able to find here, it's really beyond my expectations!"
"I have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, Brother Lin is polite!" Lin Wan arched his hand.
"Don't dare, but if I were Brother Lin, I wouldn't have come here rashly, you should know that Jian San saw you and me together yesterday, and I'm sure there were people from the Ten Thousand Swords Academy staring at Xiao at this time. ”
"There are some risks to be taken, and I believe that as long as Jian San is not personally watching outside the door, with my light skills, no matter how many secret sentinels there are, they will not be able to detect me. ”
"Oh, Brother Lin is so confident, I don't know why I'm here?"
"The injury of the non-precept monk is a little serious, he has a good relationship with me, I want to save him, but I believe that as long as I or any one of them buy wound medicine in the medicine store in the past few days, I will definitely be targeted, and Jian San must have arranged most of the manpower at the city gate and the door of the medicine shop, so I can only ask Brother Xiao for help." ”
"That's right, the Xiao family really doesn't lack these things, but I'm afraid Brother Lin wants to give me a reason, why should I risk being retaliated against by murderers like Jian San to help you?"
"Of course, there are reasons, one of which is that among the people who can help me, I only know you. Second, for some reason, I believe in Brother Xiao's character. ”
"Okay, Brother Lin is really refreshing. ”
"Someone!" Xiao Yi shouted out the door
"Young Master, Qin'er is here!"
"First go and take Brother Lin to the pharmacy at home to get medicine, then change a set of clothes for Brother Lin, and then send him out of the house through the side door. ”
"Yes, young master"
"Brother Xiao, change your clothes?"
"Hehe, since I helped Brother Lin once, Brother Lin should also help me once. ”
Lin Wan nodded as if she didn't understand, and then followed Qin'er out.
Xiao Yi played with the chess pieces for a while, and when the time came, his figure blurred for a while, and soon disappeared into the night.
At the side door of Xiao's Mansion, seeing Lin Wan, who had changed her outfit, hurriedly left into the distance, Xiao Yi appeared beside Qin'er.
"Young master, if you don't let me go, you still don't take the risk. ”
"One is that I am more similar to this Brother Lin's figure, and the other is that your skills are not enough, so I should go there myself. Sometimes the necessary risk pays off. ”
Outside the gate of Xiao's house, in a corner of the street, two warriors in the same costume were staring at the Xiao Mansion, but the poor two were unaware of Lin Wan's comings and goings. One of them was about thirty, with a scar on the left side of his face, and the other was a little immature, about eighteen or nineteen years old.
"Senior Brother Qu, you said that we have been waiting for a day, will the monk and the little white face really come here?" asked the tender-faced junior brother
"Maybe, Senior Brother Jian San got angry, pursued for more than a month, and saw that the great success was finally ruined by someone, it's okay that the two didn't come, if they really came, we must not let those two escape. Scar said with a hateful face.
Senior Brother Face was just about to echo, but saw a figure flying out of the corner of the inner courtyard of the Xiao family, seeing that the figure and clothes were the person who did the bad thing yesterday, Senior Brother Face Nen pulled Senior Brother Qu and stretched out his finger to show Senior Brother Qu.
Senior Brother Qu looked in the direction of his finger, it was the little white face that he had been checking all day, but thinking that this person could take over the heavy sword of the senior brother, and there was a ruthless monk as a fellow party, he didn't have the confidence to leave him.
"Senior brother, I'll follow you and keep an eye on it, leaving marks along the way, you go back and inform the senior brothers to come over. Go and go back. After speaking, without waiting for the junior brother to reply, he should speed over first, and see that the speed is not inferior to the target in front.
Xiao Yi bypassed the two streets, came to a courtyard wall, jumped on the courtyard wall with a little breath, and then entered the mansion, Xiao Yi, who entered the mansion, spread his consciousness, carefully dodging the guards and family members one by one, and after leaving a mark, Senior Brother Qu also followed into the courtyard wall, and the two ran towards the inner courtyard one after the other. After walking around for about a quarter of an hour, Senior Brother Qu suddenly found that the person in front of him had lost his figure.
At this moment, a maid in the distance felt that something had hit her, so she looked around and saw Senior Brother Qu's figure.
The maid shouted, and there were figures nearby who came quickly, and Senior Brother Qu secretly screamed that it was not good, and if he was fooled, he would use light skills and fly away. Just about to exert force, his calf hurt, and his body almost couldn't stand, and when he looked at it, he didn't know when there was blood on his calf, and an iron nail about an inch long was nailed to his calf, knowing that the bone must have been nailed.
Seeing this scene, Senior Brother Qu suddenly felt that the pain was even more unbearable, and he couldn't help shouting.
Seeing that the two nearest family members in front of him had already arrived, Senior Brother Qu overturned the two of them with a sword, and did not dare to stay longer and fled outside, followed by the family members and the guards. Senior Brother Qu couldn't do his light work after being injured, and it was obvious that he would be caught up by the family sooner or later.
Xiao Yi's mind was full of thoughts, and he changed direction from time to time, either flying towards a tree branch or hiding in the firewood house, but the whole left in the direction away from Senior Brother Qu.
Out of Qi's house, occasionally deliberately left footprints, flew towards another mansion in the distance, got closer, and the mansion was impressively written "Tang Mansion". After "inadvertently" leaving a mark on the wall of Xiao Yat Courtyard, he turned over and entered the Tang Mansion.
Half an hour later, Xiao Yat turned over and left from the courtyard wall on the side of Tang's house.
Xiao Yi, who thought he was safe, entered an ordinary courtyard next door to the Tang family, but the courtyard was quite elegant, there were two rooms in the depths of the courtyard, and the divine consciousness inadvertently swept towards the room, but the divine consciousness was blocked out of the door, Xiao Yi was stunned, but this was the first time he had encountered it. There was such a strange existence in an ordinary courtyard, and things were strange, Xiao Yi walked cautiously towards the room.
Through the small gap in the window, the situation in the house made Xiao Yi stunned, only to see a woman in white in her early twenties in the room holding an embroidery needle to do embroidery, her movements were skillful and elegant, full of beauty. The woman had a white veil on her face, she couldn't see her face clearly, her figure was plump, and her long black hair was waist-length behind her.
Thinking that she was tired, the woman put down the embroidery, got up and picked up the kettle, and poured herself a glass of water. Xiao Yat had never seen such an elegant and beautiful woman in his previous life and in his present life for decades, and he actually had a feeling of heartbeat.
Suppressing the thoughts in his heart, Xiao Yi knew that the time was not right at this time, so he turned around and left, and came back to visit another day.
At this time, the woman in the house took off her veil because of drinking water, revealing a face that was overwhelming the country and the city, and she was also distracted for a moment with Xiao Yi's concentration, her heart beat faster, and her breathing was a little short.
A coquettish cry came from the room, followed by a silver light.
Xiao Yi secretly screamed badly, but he didn't expect that this person was also a master above the ninth layer, and if he didn't pay attention to it, his slight breathing sound was actually detected.
Xiao Yi's figure flew out upside down, and the silver light followed closely behind, and the speed was so fast that it came to Xiao Yi in the blink of an eye, and it was an embroidery needle.
Xiao Yi's complexion changed, the backward trend of the right side of his body remained unchanged, and the backward trend of the entire left body stopped instantly. So the body turned under the action of inertia, and at the same time the body was raised, turned several times, and landed on a branch in front of the courtyard, and when I looked sideways, the embroidery needle had disappeared into the wall.
"Girl, this is a misunderstanding, I was just passing by, and there was no malice. ”
"Who is there who is passing by over the wall in the middle of the night, who are you, why do I see that you are a little familiar and know me?" The woman glanced at the locked door and knew that the person who came had climbed over the wall to enter.
"This, it's hard to say, inadvertently broke in, and there was really no malice. ”
"But I obviously feel your desire, could it be a flower thief who has recently done more than a dozen cases in a few nearby states, and Yang Yan is flying on the grass?"
Xiao Yi was embarrassed for a while, and he couldn't cry or laugh. It's just that it's hard to say that I really felt ripples when I saw the other party's temperament just now, in this case, if you really say that, then you are even more of a flower thief.
Seeing that Xiao Yi was silent and silent, the woman knew that she had guessed her mind, and she was angry in her heart, knowing that even if the person who came was not Yang Yan, she would definitely not be a good person. I saw that the woman took out a short sword out of nowhere and stabbed at Xiao Yi.
It was quite dangerous to go out this time, so Xiao Yi also brought a long sword, and when he saw the woman attacking, he used the long sword to fight with her. It's just that he is the first to lose, and he doesn't dare to fight back easily.
The woman's swordsmanship is extremely clever, the internal force of the ninth layer is almost not under Xiao Yi, for a while, Xiao Yi only has the power to parry, and the woman in addition to the swordsmanship, the light skill seems to be more clever, often in the blink of an eye, she has already vacated several positions, fortunately, although it is the same nine layers, but Xiao Yi's divine thoughts are more magical and sensitive, and he can always find a flaw in the end, turning the corner into safety.
Xiao Yi knew that this was not the time to entangle, Jian San and the others were not stupid people, and they would soon track down the Tang family. The disappearance of his traces in the Tang family will certainly make Jian San and the Qi family suspect the Tang family, but if someone bumps into him fighting here, then the water that has just been muddied tonight will not be in vain.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yi held the sword in his right hand to block, and at this moment, he took advantage of this moment with his left hand to carry the flame palm that he had just learned and hit the woman, and the woman exerted force with her left foot. Moving sideways, Xiao Yi's palm almost brushed the woman's waist through.
An object slipped from the woman's waist, Xiao Yishun held it in his hand, and after a closer look, it turned out to be the snow-white veil that the woman wore before, and there was a hint of red in the middle of the veil, which should be the color of lip red.
Shaking his head and not daring to delay his work, Xiao Yi couldn't worry about entangling with the woman, so he picked up Qingluo footwork and flew out of the courtyard, Qingluo footwork is a superior light skill, and few people can keep up with Xiao Yi's speed since he practiced it.
But obviously the woman in white is an exception, I saw that the woman followed closely, the light skill seemed to be above the former, and the toe was a few feet away, not only extremely fast, but also fluttering, obviously a top-level light skill that was still above the green carrot step.
The two chased each other into the distance, and there was a watch on the road, but they thought they had seen a ghost.
Xiao Yi took the initiative in front, the direction of progress changed uncertainly, and the woman chased after her, and the two were far away and sometimes close. Xiao Yi didn't dare to go back to Xiao's house, nor did he dare to run around the street so as not to run into Jian San and the others, so he flew towards the west of the city.
At night, the city gate has already been closed, and if you want to go out, you can only climb over the wall, Xiao Yi's speed is too fast, when the soldiers guarding the city and the two masters of the Ten Thousand Swords Academy found out, Xiao Yi has already gone out of the city, and the woman behind was blocked for a moment, but it was only a few breaths to repel a few people, and then disappeared over the wall and disappeared.
Not to mention that the city was chaotic for a while, Xiao Yi went out of the mountain city, and his internal strength was drummed up, and the speed was increased to the fastest. The divine thought swept over, and the woman chased closely behind him for hundreds of meters, Xiao Yi's internal skills were slightly stronger, and the woman's light skills were more clever, and for a while, they were even up and down, and the two ran one after the other for nearly an hour, and it was already a hundred miles.
Xiao Yi knew that it would not be easy to get rid of the woman, but at this time, he was a hundred miles away from the mountain city, but he was not afraid that the sound of the fight would attract the people of Jian San, the Tang family, and the Qi family. He simply stopped running away and stood aside and waited for the woman.
But in a moment, the woman in white came to Xiao Yi about three feet in front of her, and the woman looked puzzled, not knowing why Xiao Yi stopped and didn't escape.
"Girl, I really didn't mean to offend, I'm sorry for you here, how do you think you can forgive you?" Xiao Yi saw that the woman didn't draw her sword and kill immediately, so she hurriedly apologized. "In addition, Zai is really not a flower thief, and you have no evidence, how can you hurt people at will!"
"Give me back the veil first!"
Xiao Yi was stunned, he couldn't cry or laugh, he chased himself for more than a hundred miles, and he said it earlier for the sake of the veil!
Xiao Yi approached cautiously and handed the veil over, but fortunately, the woman didn't make any further moves after taking the veil, just looked at herself quietly.
"What else does the girl command?"
"You're not a good person, but I can't beat you now. The woman thought for a moment, "Don't come and peek at me again!" and then turned and walked back.
Waiting for the slender back to quickly go away, Xiao Yi also strolled back, only to see the high mountain on the left, thinking of the place he heard in Xiao's house when he came to the mountain city on the first day, it seemed to be this mountain and the time seemed to be today's noon, at this time the sky was just about to lighten, so he simply walked directly towards the West Mountain.
