Chapter 2: The Lord's Bracelet
"This bracelet is not yours. The shopkeeper said affirmatively, "Girl, don't you think about greedy for this thing anymore, aren't you afraid of retribution for such a valuable item?"
Xu Shilianyue looked at him incredulously, at this time the bracelet had been forcibly ripped off by the woman, and she hurriedly turned around to grab it.
"You give it back to me! This is what the prince's brother gave me!" Xu Shilian Yue was so angry that she was about to cry.
The woman shook her away in disgust, and said with cold eyes, "Nonsense, you are just a little girl, can you still meet the prince?"
Dark Jiu's heart moved, and then he understood where the bracelet came from, and stepped forward and said, "Since you said that this bracelet is your family heirloom, then you can tell me what texture it will show under the light?"
As soon as these words came out, the woman was blindfolded, her eyes glanced at the thing in her hand, and said vaguely: "This ancestor's thing, this is the first time I took it out today, how do I know what texture it has?"
"It's just that I don't know if I look at this?" the woman said again, and then raised the jade bracelet, and when Dark Jiu saw this, she snatched it away, and said to the woman: "Since you can't say it, how can you say that it's yours?"
"But how can I know this!" The woman was a little anxious, and stepped forward to retrieve the jade bracelet, but Dark Jiu quietly stepped back and said, "Since it is your family heirloom, then your father and mother have not mentioned it to you......?"
"Why do you have to meddle here, since it's hers, it's hers!" said the shopkeeper of the pawnshop.
Dark Nine avoided it again: "Since you are the owner of the pawnshop, you are naturally a discerning person, and this jade bracelet has also passed through your hand, so you can tell me what texture it transmits light." ”
The shopkeeper was obviously impatient, and said disdainfully: "What kind of texture can this kind of jade have, isn't it just white broken lines when it comes and goes?"
"Yes, yes, it's white striking! My father told me once!" the woman hurriedly answered, and smiled with a look of chagrin, "Look at my memory, if it weren't for the shopkeeper's reminder, I wouldn't have remembered it." ”
A sneer flashed on Dark Nine's face, and his gaze swept over the two people in front of him: "This is the bracelet given by the prince of Yanguo to the lord of Lianyue, although it is an ordinary jade material, it is an extremely rare jade material with no light spots and no texture. The two of you snatched the bracelet of the county lord of Lianyue in broad daylight, what a great guts!"
The woman and the shopkeeper were stunned, and the group of people watching the play on the side also began to talk about it, only to see that the two of them were blue and red for a while.
The shopkeeper was still a person who had seen the world, and quickly calmed down, "How do you know that this person is the Lord of Liyue?"
"I don't believe it, looking for the city lord to come out, the city lord and Xu Shiwangfu have always been good friends...... Dark Jiu said again, his eyes swept over the two people who looked at each other, and the other party finally remained silent and speechless. Dark Nine then turned around and pulled Xu Shilian Yue out of the crowd together.
"Who are you, how do you know so much?" Xu Shi Lianyue looked at Dark Nine vigilantly, shook off his hand and snatched the jade bracelet to look at it carefully, seeing that it was okay, he breathed a sigh of relief and carefully put it on his hand.
"Protect your people. Dark Nine looked at her coldly.
"Protection?" Xu Shilianyue raised her eyes to look at him, then leaned her face up on tiptoe, looked into his eyes carefully, and said, "Which guard next to your father are you, why haven't I seen it?"
She raised her hand again to take off Dark Nine's mask, but Dark Nine slapped it off with a cold face.
He took two steps back and distanced himself from the person in front of him, and then said, "You don't need to know this. ”
"You helped me so enthusiastically, why are you so cold now?" Xu Shilianyue said unhappily, but she was still looking at the mask on the dark nine faces, still thinking about it in her heart.
Dark Nine didn't pay attention to it, looked at the Fenglai restaurant next to him and said, "Let's eat first, and we'll leave here later." ”
"You want to take me back?" Xu Shilianyue raised her eyebrows, looking at a tall black horse behind him, thinking faintly in her heart.
"Hmm. Dark Nine responded, and took the lead in entering the Fenglai Restaurant, and handed the reins to the waiter who stepped forward.
Immediately, a shopkeeper stepped forward enthusiastically and said, "What do the two guest officers want to eat?"
"A spicy rabbit head and four plates of your signature dish will do. Xu Shilianyue poked her head out from behind Dark Nine and smiled.
Dark Nine was silent about this, but walked to the empty table in the corner and sat down, placing his saber on the table.
"You want to eat with me?" Xu Shi Lianyue sat curiously opposite Dark Nine, her eyes staring at his eyes, but those eyes were too dark for her to see anything.
"Hmm. Dark Nine responded indifferently, closing his eyes and ignoring her.
"I don't think you're the one my father sent! Xu Shilianyue was pleasantly surprised, and there was no sense of blame.
"Hmm. Dark Nine responded perfunctorily.
"Can't you say two more words?" Xu Shilianyue stretched out her finger and poked it on Dark Jiu's arm in dissatisfaction, but she didn't know that her nails had just touched, and she was frightened by the other party's deep black eyes.
She hurriedly withdrew her hand, and said with blame and fear: "What did you do when you suddenly opened your eyes, scared me to death." ”
"Don't do anything to me. Dark Nine said indifferently. He was very helpless about this immature woman, if it weren't for Xu Shi Lianyue being his last task, at this time, it would be a sword on Xu Shi Lianyue's neck.
"Oh......" She looked at the cold man in front of her aggrievedly, wondering how her father could send such a person to protect her.
Then there was silence between the two, Xu Shilianyue stopped talking, and Dark Nine didn't bother to say anything.
Someone next to them looked at the two of them, then put a piece of broken silver on the table and left.
Dark Nine shrewdly looked sideways, and saw that the word Xu Shi was engraved on the man's sword, and he raised his eyebrows slightly.
It seems that someone in Xu Shiwang's Mansion has been secretly protecting Xu Shilianyue, but this guy has never found out. Dark Nine was quite helpless about this.
After the meal was served, some guests came to the restaurant for breakfast, and the atmosphere gradually became lively.
Xu Shilianyue ate some vegetables and sighed: "It would be good if you could come over earlier, you don't know how hard I have lived this way." ”
Dark Jiu looked up at Xu Shilianyue's slightly sad expression, and was very suspicious that if Xu Shiwang's Mansion really didn't send someone to see her, I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to leave this dark city.
It was only the first time that the two of them had met, and Xu Shi Lianyue was not even prepared at all, so she sat with him and ate as a matter of course......
"When I came to the dark city yesterday, I was penniless, so I became the bracelet given to me by the prince's brother and exchanged it for ten taels of silver. Xu Shilianyue said pitiful, called the shopkeeper to ask for a pot of wine, and poured himself a drink.
[Xiao Li'er]: The jade thing is purely made up, please don't imitate, don't take it seriously.
