It wasn't until they were all gone away that Hu Qi let me go.

"You-"

Two voices rang out almost simultaneously.

"You say it first." ”

"How did you come here?" I asked him.

"Ah Qi, I should ask you this sentence. The corners of his mouth rose slightly, "Tianzi No. 1 room is the best room in the entire inn, and it will not be so stuffy as Tongpu that you have to let people sleep on the roof." ”

It turned out that he had slept on this roof......

As I was secretly speaking, a cool morning breeze blew, mixed with some grit, and fell on the bare skin with a faint pain. It was at this moment that the hand quickly reached out to block my view.

"Ah Qi. ”

There was not a glimmer of light between my fingers, and there was darkness in front of me, and I quietly listened to the voice and asked me.

"I saw you come up with a heavy heart just now, but you didn't sleep well last night?"

I looked stunned and said without thinking, "I thought you would ask the other girl in the room first." ”

The wind gradually stopped, and then there was a soft laugh in front of him, and the hand let in the light of the sky little by little.

"Ah Qi," Hu Qi smiled meaningfully, "are you jealous?"

Jealous?

We paused, and our cheeks were hot, and I said, "I didn't." ”

Seeing that he only smiled and didn't say anything, he showed a look of knowing everything. I sulked a little in vain, and turned my head to look at the green woods in the distance. That's where the high rollers disappeared.

Hu Qi took a step forward, his eyes looking at one place with mine.

"Ah Qi doesn't seem to want to talk to me much. ”

I still looked ahead, and my tone was a little colder, "How do I know which sentence Hu Dongjia said is true and which is false?" ”

There was a sigh beside him, "It turns out that Ah Qi is still angry with me." Looks like we're going to have to make those things clear today. ”

Hu Qi pulled my shoulders so that I looked at him in the same eye, and said very seriously: "Ah Qi can ask whatever he wants." ”

I pursed my lips and was silent for a while, looking serious, "Can Hu Dongjia guarantee that everything is true?"

He didn't speak for a moment, and nodded to me very solemnly, "Okay." ”

In an instant, I was in good spirits, and I asked the answer I wanted to know the most, word by word.

"I ask you, why did you hide your identity and go out of your way to accompany me?"

"The word deliberate is serious. I approached you as a shopkeeper to make you less worried. As for walking with you," he mused, "he was entrusted with it." ”

"Who's on that?" I frowned, full of doubt.

"I'm sorry, Ah Qi. His face froze slightly, "Since you can't tell lies, then this question is really difficult for me to say." ”

I didn't say anything, but when I saw him bow slightly towards me, I raised my head and said, "But don't worry, you will know in the future." But by no means now. ”

It's good, and it's a trick with me.

"Alright, let's talk about the lava river in Qingquan Mountain. I stared at him without blinking, "I was trapped in the stone wall that time, did you come to save me?"

"Yes. He was only stunned for a moment, and then quickly replied without any hypocrisy, "There was a lot of inconvenience at that time, so I held Aunt Gua to hide it from you." ”

"It's just Aunt Gua?" I narrowed my eyes, "What about Xiao Jiu?" Hu Dongjia will answer after you think about it. ”

Hu Yan's tone revealed some helplessness, "Okay, he is also an insider." ”

I stared at him again without saying a word.

At this time, he chuckled a few times, "Ah Qi, you really remembered." I know what you're going to say next. ”

Hu Yan was anti-guest-oriented, as if he had penetrated my thoughts, came closer, and said quietly: "He went to Chang'an first." ”

My eyes widened and I tentatively said, "...... you said he was?"

"Ah Qi, do you remember that time in the illusion of Hong Meiniang, you and I were also standing on the roof like this. ”

I nodded, for a time.

"Then I asked you why you always like to wear blue clothes. You won't tell me. I say to you, I know. ”

I listened to him continue.

"Actually, I was just guessing at the time, but until I saw the person, I knew I was right. ”

Hu Yan slowed down his speech, and his voice was a little jerky, "In a sense, I am also in competition with him. But these things, I think it's better to tell you as well. Since you left Jinling, he has followed him all the way. After you had an accident in Qingquan Mountain, he changed his mind and went to Chang'an one step ahead of us. ”

"Ah Qi, I am telling you this, and I am by no means showing weakness. I didn't have much confidence to compete with him before, but now I'm not afraid. You gave me this confidence and certainty. Qi, you know what I'm talking about. ”

He said so many things at once, and my heart fluctuated when I heard it. I understood, and I did know what he was saying. I lowered my eyelids to hide my crimson cheeks.

The best way to avoid a topic is to ask another question.

"What's going on with the Zhou Ji Gambling House?" I looked up, "Have you forgotten that before you went in, we agreed to ......?"

I stopped talking, unable to speak at the thought of the oath I had promised, and my eyes flashed with a wave of loss.

"Of course I haven't forgotten. This time, it was his turn to be anxious, and he explained to me in a little hurry, "Zhou Ji was originally my shop, and the owner was the most foolproof inside. But I didn't expect that Shen Sumaung would also be in it. ”

"If I'm not mistaken, he said, you gave me to him. What does that mean?"

"It's not a wise move in extraordinary circumstances. "However, in any case, I can ensure your safety." Ah Qi, you don't have to doubt this. ”

"So," I pondered his words, "Shen Sumaung also has your eyeliner by his side?"

Hu Yan tilted his head, and there was a bit of surprise in his eyes, "That's right." ”

"Hu Dongjia is really well hidden. No wonder everyone says that Hu Dongjia never trades at a loss. I stepped back and bowed to him. I saw him smile bitterly and shake his head, and he stepped forward to support me, but I suddenly took another step back.

"That girl is also a secret chess move of the Hu Dong family?"

He froze his face and froze in place, thinking for a moment before speaking to me.

"It's not dark chess. It's a witness. ”

I also looked solemn.

"Ah Qi, Lian Zinu is a very key person for me. I want her to help me uncover the biggest conspiracy in the world and uncover the true face of a hypocrite. ”

I saw that his face grew heavier and heavier, and his tone was unusually depressed.

Hu Yan only said a few words and said no more, and I knew that as for the "greatest conspiracy" and "a hypocrite", he could not say it. At least for now, I can't know.

"Well, I'll trust you. ”

When Hu Yan heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief, and the haze on his face gradually dissipated.

"Ah Qi, since you don't have ......"

"I have one last question. ”

I interrupted him abruptly, one hand clenching the Rainbow Sword.

"What is Yun Niangniang's name?"

The corners of his mouth froze.

"You actually know, don't you?"
