Green Bee Cottage (1)
"Did you find it?" Qi Lin had just raised his feet and entered the hall, Bai Shi stumbled over with the support of Su Luhuan, and suddenly his weak body shook and almost fell, Su Luhuan hugged his mother and said, "Mother, don't worry!"
Qi Lin hurriedly stepped forward to help his wife, he looked a little embarrassed, lowered his head for a moment, and stammered back: "Leaving my sister, she... She hasn't found it yet. β
When Bai Shi heard this, the tears in her eyes suddenly converged into a river, snatching out her eyes, and her full hope was instantly dashed, she cried: "It's been a day and a night, where has this girl gone!"
Su Lu saw that her face was haggard, and she couldn't bear it, so she said softly: "Mother, don't worry, my sister may have something to delay, haven't the two of us often run in Siku Mountain since we were children, and sometimes we can't come back for a few days and nights, aren't they just as safe and sound?"
"But at that time, you were either accompanied by your master, or accompanied by Aunt Ma, besides, your sister has always been steady, and she never went out without sending news back, and the markers along the way were broken when they reached the dense forest, what if they were taken away by gangsters. β
Bai family from a famous family, but not the slightest martial arts, she grew up in the deep boudoir, soft temperament and depressed, since marrying into the sword villa, then to the husband and daughter for its world, now a daughter is missing, as if walking in the chasm at night, suddenly the six gods have no owner, grief murmuring.
Su Luhuan felt sorry for her injury, and she was afraid that she would suffer again, so she leaned over and said softly and comforted: "Mother, my sister said that she was going to pick flower dew, and she will naturally come back, don't worry, I will go out with Senior Brother Qi to find it, and I will definitely find it for you, don't worry, maybe it will be far away." β
She helped Bai Shi to sit down, poured a cup of tea and sent it to her, turned to Lin You, the little servant in the hall, and said, "You are fast, go to Jingyi Garden, go and invite my master to come over, if it is... If he is not there, he will take Aunt Fu Bo Ma over. β
Lin replied excitedly, turned his head and ran towards the door.
When Lin You returned, there was an extra couple behind him, middle-aged, the man's face was dark, there was a scar on his face, his square face was small, and he was neither kind nor kind to his eyes. The woman's face is thin, petite, and her forehead is wrinkled, and she is weathered but capable and shrewd.
The eyes of the two were infinitely bright, and they were both anxious, and their legs shook quickly under the leadership of Lin You.
As soon as she stepped in, the woman rushed over and grabbed Su Lu and said, "Phantom girl, are you injured?"
Su Luhuan looked at Lin You suspiciously, only to see that he was sweating profusely, coughing a few times in his throat, Su Luhuan picked up the kettle and poured a cup of tea for him and said, "You have worked hard, go out and rest." Waiting for Lin You to leave, he turned to the couple and said: "Aunt Ma, Fu Bo, it's not me, I was too anxious just now, Lin You didn't make it clear, my sister is missing, my mother is sad, she is very bad now, she has no major problems, but I can't leave her illness, so I invited the two of you over in a hurry." β
After hearing this, the woman suddenly realized: "The girl wants us two old things to help you take care of Madame." β
Su Lu was puzzled: "Exactly." β
Fu Bo let out a long breath, touched his forehead, and wiped the sweat lightly: "What's the matter, if you want to go to find the girl, don't worry, madam, just now the little guy said that the girl was missing, and I was scared of the two of us, and I thought it was you who disappeared again!"
Aunt Ma frowned and rolled her eyes at him and said angrily: "It's still a girl, and it's not elegant to speak." β
When Fu Bo was young, he had a flying temperament, acted and defended evil, and made friends with people of three religions and nine streams, and his speech was crude and slang, but he was chivalrous and courageous, and he was affectionate and righteous, and he was to protect Aunt Ma from life and death, which moved Jiang Yuchun to save the two together, the two had no heirs, Su Luhuan had lived in Jingyi Garden since he was a child, and he had been accompanied by the past, and the two had long regarded her as their own child, and there was nothing wrong with her wordsγ
Su Luhuan saw that Aunt Ma was going to count again, and when he remembered the time when he lived in his childhood, his heart warmed, and he quickly shook Aunt Ma's arm and said: "Aunt Ma, you and Fu Bo will live in the villa these days, and when I find my sister, I will eat the osmanthus cake and shortbread you made." β
She has been calm and self-contained since she was a child, and she rarely spoiled, Aunt Ma saw her like this, but she was angry and angry, and immediately responded: "Okay, you hurry up and find the girl, remember to bring more people, never go out alone." β
Su Luhuan replied yes and said, "I'll go with my senior brother, don't worry." β
It was noon, the red sun was full of sky, and on the busy street, Yan Mubai and Qiu Ying'an were in a hurry, looking for people together, but the city gate was near, and still found nothing, because at noon, the two of them found a small restaurant and sat down to rest.
Qiu Ying'an carefully poured the tea full, pushed it over, and said softly: "Brother Yan, I've been looking for this for a day and a night, and the girl must have been out of Shanxi, should we continue to look for it?"
Yan Mubai picked up a cup of tea, swallowed a cup of tea, Xu was thirsty, he took the teapot in Qiu Ying'an's hand to fill the empty cup, and drank three cups in a row, and then replied: "Find." β
Qiu Ying'an pursed her lips inadvertently, and said in her heart: "Originally, I was to avoid hundreds of miles and thousands of rivers, but now I have traveled almost all over Taiyuan County, and it seems that I will be able to go back very late today." She leaned over and pressed her calf, her face was a little unhappy, she picked up a cup of tea, looked down at the tea leaves in the teacup for a moment, sighed slightly, and took a sip.
Suddenly, the teacup shook, ding, the teacup split into two, cracked, the hot tea spilled turned into tens of millions of droplets, splashed in all directions, the hot air on the table rose, and then with a bang, two complete pieces of broken porcelain fell on the table, things happened too fast, Qiu Ying looked up for a moment, only to see Yan Mubai holding a pair of chopsticks in his hand, the chopsticks were straight in the air, and an emerald green sleeve arrow flew out with the speed of thunder and lightning across the white window paper, and her heart sank:" If you deviate in the slightest, you are afraid that your life will not be guaranteed today. β
Her face was pale, and her voice trembled: "Brother Yan." β
Yan Mubai put down the wooden chopsticks and replied: "Don't be afraid!"
When he landed, many people poured into the house, all of them were in strange costumes, their faces were hideous, and the diners around them looked at them, and they were afraid to avoid them, and they ran out of the gate crowded, and the person at the head said: "You are Yan Mubai, a boy whose martial arts are more exquisite than the master of the martial arts alliance." β
When Qiu Ying'an heard this, he seemed to be a little more stable in his heart, and the smug look on his face gradually appeared, as if this person was praising himself, and replied first: "What is my eldest brother, what is it, you don't dare to compete head-on, you only dare to secretly release cold arrows, you are not a hero!"
The man looked her up and down, his eyes narrowed, and he laughed wildly and said: "Who said that we think we are heroes, our village owner wants to see what kind of play this mighty Jianghu Qilu trick is, please go with us!"
Yan Mubai's heart sank, and he said in his heart: "In this Taiyuan County, under the photo of the Sword Villa, these people dare to act like this, it seems that the name of Qilu Jue really cannot be underestimated, but although I have learned this swordsmanship, it has not yet been fully integrated with the internal strength, in order to protect myself, I must not be so swaggering in the future." β
He waved his hand and said: "I don't know any Qilu tricks in the next place, but I see that the Helan Fort Lord's kung fu is good, and now he has learned and sold a few tricks, and the Black Snake Elder of the Haicao Gang fought with the Helan Fort Lord at that time and suffered some sword energy, which made me, a nameless boy, coax for a moment, everyone is a first-class good hand in the rivers and lakes, and it is right to believe that this is not true and not full of rumors." β
The leader rolled his eyes a few times and said, "What you said is true?"
"Naturally, if I am really as rumored, this martial arts alliance leader has already been captured, and at this moment, I am afraid that I am hugging each other in front of him, and I will be so embarrassed, coming to the ugly tearoom to drink tea?"
The man bowed his head and pondered, as if he had believed a little.
Yan Mubai thought to himself: "These people are not in the conference, the reason is nothing more than two, either the sect pattern is not enough, and they are not invited, or they are vicious and narrow-minded, and others disdain to be with them, if it is the first type, it doesn't matter if it is the first one, it doesn't matter if it is the second type, although I accidentally practice the exquisite swordsmanship, but the time for practicing the mental method is still short, and the true qi in the body is not yet able to be used freely, if they attack it in groups, it is enough to protect themselves, but Miss Qiu..." He turned his head to look, only to see that the corners of Qiu Ying'an's mouth were slightly slanted, and his face was full of pride, and he said in his heart: "This Qiu girl is too confident in my swordsmanship." β
Suddenly, one of his subordinates whispered a few words in the man's ear, and the man frowned and said, "You kid still wants to deceive people, you have to go today, and you have to go if you don't go." β
Yan Mubai sighed lightly and said: "That's fine, I'll go with you to see your head and explain it to him in person, but this girl has nothing to do with this matter, can you be accommodating and let her go." β
In the crowd, one of the subordinates stepped forward and said: "This girl just called you eldest brother, presumably your relationship must be extraordinary, we just invite the two of you to leave together, and then even if you don't want to, you will have to show us the Qilu Jue obediently." β
Everyone said, "Exactly, you can't let her go, let's go together." β
The leader sneered, stretched out two fingers and said, "You two should look at that sleeve arrow." β
Yan Mubai and Qiu Ying'an followed his gesture and turned their heads to look, only to see that the white window paper flying by the sleeve arrow was black, and they were all shocked.
The leader said, "We have more than a dozen brothers, and each of us has several of these arrows in our hands, but the two of you only have one sword, how much poisonous water can you stop us?"
When Yan Mubai heard this, he knew that what he said was true, and pondered for a moment and said, "The two of us will go with you." β
Qiu Ying'an's face seemed to be frightened, and he said hurriedly: "Brother Yan." β
Yan Mubai whispered: "Respond to them first, and then act at the opportunity, don't worry, I won't let you have anything to do." β
Qiu Ying was relieved and smiled, "I believe in you." β
The leader shouted, "Wait!"
A few steps forward and said: "It's just that we don't know whether your Qilu recipe is true or false, for our safety, we have to tie you up with grievances, I hope Yan Shaoxia doesn't mind, and when we get to our Qingbee Village, we will naturally let go of the two." β
Yan Mubai nodded and obediently handed over the weapon.
When they left the city, they were greeted by companions outside the city, and several good horses were parked.
Yan Mubai thought to himself: "These people are indeed prepared, there are many people coming, and they will act separately, I am afraid that it will be difficult for the two of us to get out today, and we must quickly think of a good plan along the way." β
The leader of the team said: "Boy, don't think crookedly, you have to go today, and you have to go if you don't go." β
Yan Mubai looked around and said embarrassedly: "Originally, the owner of your sect was invited, of course we were willing to make the trip, but we were too anxious to go out, and in the future, I would like to say hello to the Sword Villa, why don't you take a detour and let me say hello to the villa?"
When the man heard this, his face tightened, and he thought: "We openly intercepted people in the downtown area, and we can be regarded as offending the Sword Villa, this kid is reminding me that there is still a way out in front of me." A flash of hesitation flashed in his eyes, "Since this is the case, no matter what, we must probe the sword moves from this kid, even if we risk the disaster of more than dozens of brothers in the village, if we don't do it, others in this river and lake will also start, and it is better to strike first than to strike later." β
He nodded suddenly, and said to Yan Mubai: "It's okay, when you demonstrate this sword move for our village master, of course we will let you go, the green bee village is not far away, there is no need to be so troublesome." After speaking, he raised his hand to his subordinates and said, "Give them two of them a horse to ride, and you can find another horse to ride." β
When the man heard this, he jumped down with a whoosh, led the horse to the two men, and when the two were settled, he gave the reins of the horse to the leader of the group, and the leader shouted, and the people galloped westward
In the evening, I came to a canyon, walked slowly inward for several miles, and suddenly opened up, and a small village jumped in front of me. The crowd reined in unison and jumped down.
The leader said, "Boy, it's here!"
Yan Mubai took a look, and saw dozens of people standing up in front of him, all dressed in ordinary strange costumes, and there were about dozens or hundreds of people in the crowd at the end, but they were dressed as ordinary people, and when they saw someone being tied up, they were not stage frightened, they played jokes, and they performed their duties, as if they were commonplace. person
At the front of the group, the leader of the person wore a felt hat, rubbed his two hands repeatedly, a pair of eyes, shining, should be the leader of the village, "This person has a fat head and big ears, and at first glance he is a good hand at robbing houses and houses. Suddenly, his heart moved, "They're not good at poisoning, otherwise we wouldn't be here." β
"Welcome, welcome, Qingbee Village welcomes two friends! I am Fan Xiao, a ranger, and I have been waiting here for a long time with all the brothers in the village. β
Yan Mubai said in his heart: "This person is really funny, obviously he tied up the two of us, but he has to pretend to be happy and hateful, chic and casual, it's really annoying!"
He flew off the horse, stretched out his tied hands and took Qiu Ying'an down, and then turned to Fan Xiao and said, "This is how Lord Fan Zhai welcomes friends?" As he spoke, he pushed his bound hands forward.
That Fan Xiaoren looked stupid, but he was very clever, and hurriedly said to the team leader: "Fu Yuan, quickly untie the two." β
The leader of the team was stunned and said, "Owner of the village, let it go?"
Fan Xiao took a step forward and loosened the tie first, "Yes, it's all released." β
Yan Mubai couldn't tell the difference between good and evil in this person for a while, and said softly at the moment: "Thank you!" Fan Xiao leaned to the side and said to the two: "There is a banquet in the house, the weather is cold, please come in and talk about it." β
Everyone rushed in and sat down one by one, Fan Xiao stood up with wine and said: "Yan Shaoxia, when we meet for the first time, I really want to make friends with Yan Gongzi, so I took the liberty of asking my subordinates to invite the two of them, please forgive me!"
Yan Mubai smiled dumbly and said: "It's easy to say, the two of us were indeed 'invited' by Guizhai." The corners of his mouth were slightly crooked, and he deliberately bit the word 'please', thinking: "You are acting so resolutely, but now you are doing this cover-up, don't you just want me to send the Qilu Jue obediently? He stared straight ahead, his expression unmoved.
