There is a crescent moon hanging in the sky.

The weather is dark and cool.

Dark nights are always perfect for killing.

The heavy night shrouded the entire Pushan County, but there was one place that faintly flashed orange light.

Of course, this kind of light is firelight, and the place where the fire shines is of course the inner courtyard of the county government.

Inside the surprisingly tall courtyard wall, red light flickered and danced.

There were four figures standing in the courtyard, two women, two men, two silent, two surprised.

Wu Wei's forehead was already drenched in a cold sweat bigger than soybeans, and he grabbed Bai Luosheng's arms with his bulging hands, and his eyes were bigger than pigeon eggs. He also ran out just now when he heard the movement, but when he saw that this place was on fire, he couldn't help but jump up in fright.

"What did you do in my house when you fell to the ground?Why is my house on fire!" Wu Wei condemned Bai Luoshang bitterly, "I kindly invited you to come to my house as a guest, and you thank me like this?"

The red lanterns and colored silks glowed with a strange red glow in the firelight.

The red light shone on Bai Luoshang's face, dyeing two blush flowers. One of his eyes reflected a dancing flame and a twinkling star.

He was laughing, laughing unfathomably, no matter what Wu Wei said, he chose to be silent.

Seeing that Wu Wei's reaction was so arrogant and unreasonable, Ochre Aya couldn't help but jump up, and pushed Wu Wei away with a fierce gaze, "What do you say is going on? Shouldn't you know more about this matter than we do?"

Wu Wei glared at him, and said fiercely: "I didn't sleep in it, how could I know what happened!"

Ochre Aya smiled coldly, "You don't know? A killer is hiding in a secret passage under your house, can you not know?"

There will be a secret passage hidden under the floor of this guest room, how could Wu Wei, who is the owner, not know about this? He specially invited Bai Luoshang to live here, and then the assassination he encountered at night was too much of a coincidence if it was a coincidence.

Ochre Ayacai didn't believe that there were so many coincidences in the world, and she had to suspect that this was calculated by Wu Wei at all.

Sure enough, as soon as she said this, Wu Wei's momentum really weakened immediately, and she immediately glanced away, and said coldly: "As soon as you come, someone will come to the door, so it can be seen that you are the spirit of trouble." But fortunately, this house is completely independent, and the fire will not spread to other places, so I will not bother with you. ”

Ochre Sneered and said sarcastically: "You are quite generous. ”

This room was originally built independently of the other rooms, and was far away from the other rooms, so it is unlikely that the fire in this house will spread to other rooms, as long as the fire burns down this room, the fire will extinguish itself.

But in the end, the fire did not destroy the whole house, but the doors, windows and roof were burned, the four walls were not damaged, and the furniture in the house was burned clean.

Wu Wei saw that the fire had been extinguished, so he turned around and walked back, ignoring Bai Luoshang and the others.

Ochre Aya couldn't help but point to Wu Wei's back and gritted his teeth and said, "Does this bastard just care about anything?"

Bai Luoshang said helplessly: "It's all like this now, what else can he do?"

Ochre Aya frowned, "Is he trying to harm you?"

Bai Luoshang shook his head slowly, "I don't know if I should say that he has the intention to harm me." ”

Ochre Aya said again: "Did he arrange this killer?"

Bai Luoshang shook her head slowly, "I don't think so." ”

"But I always felt that he knew that this killer was coming," he said. ”

Bai Luoshang was silent, sighed and said, "I think he should know too." ”

Wu Wei's deeds are really doubtful, if he didn't know about this killer before, Bai Luoshang would never believe it.

Looking at Xiumei, who had not yet left, Bai Luoshang suddenly clamped her shoulders, turned her to herself, stared at her eyes, and asked with burning eyes, "Do you have something to say to me?"

Xiumei lowered her head, looking like she wanted to say something, her expression had already told Bai Luosheng, his conjecture was not wrong, "Do you know about this?"

Xiumei raised her eyes, and finally looked directly at Bai Luoshang, and was silent for a long time before slowly nodding her head, "I don't know if it should be up to me." ”

"About this killer?"

"Yes. ”

"He's here to kill me?"

"It's not. ”

"Are you here to kill Second Master Wu?"

Xiumei bit her lip, and her expression once again answered Bai Luoshang's question.

Bai Luoshang sighed, "I thought this guest room was really good just now, but now that I think about it, this room may not be a guest room, but Second Master Wu's room, right?"

Xiumei hesitated for a long time before nodding slowly, "Yes." ”

Bai Luoshang asked again: "You already knew that there would be a killer?"

Xiumei lowered her head, "I know." ”

"That's why Second Master Wu wants me to live in the county office, and I still live in his room?"

"Yes. ”

I see.

Bai Luoshang laughed twice, "Second Master Wu knew that someone came back to assassinate him, so he invited me to live in his room, do you want to kill me with the killer's hand, or do you want to kill the killer with my hand?"

Xiumei pursed her lips, suddenly thinking that she couldn't answer the question herself.

After a long time, she said sullenly: "But you were not killed, and the killer was not dead." ”

Therefore, it didn't matter what purpose Wu Wei asked him to live in this room before, the important thing was that the result now was that none of the two situations that Bai Luoshang guessed had happened.

As he was talking, Wu Wei actually went and returned again, and his attitude was still so arrogant, when a pair of eyes were staring at people, it seemed that he was looking at the enemy.

Bai Luoshang looked at Wu Wei funny, he had already seen that Wu Wei came back with a lot of words, so he just waited for Wu Wei to speak by himself.

Wu Wei clenched his fists, and suddenly asked inexplicably: "When do you think a person is the most painful?"

Bai Luoshang tilted her head and thought for a while, "It should be when someone was injured, of course, if you watch your beloved woman marry someone else, it may also be very painful." ”

For most people, the most painful time for themselves is when they are injured, whether it is an external injury, an internal injury or an emotional injury, it is painful.

However, for Bai Luoshang, not drinking should be the most painful thing.

However, his answer was disdainful and contemptuous by Wu Wei, who sneered: "When you want to do something, but you find that you are simply powerless, this is the most painful. ”

Bai Luoshang didn't know what Wu Wei was going to say, but he couldn't deny that Wu Wei's words were really reasonable, and he really didn't want someone like Wu Wei to say it.

Wu Wei continued: "But people are sometimes very stubborn, and the more powerless things they can't do, the more they want to do them. ”

Bai Luoshang looked at Wu Wei with a smile.

"What are you looking at?" Wu Wei really couldn't help but ask.

"Look at you. Bai Luoshang smiled.

"See what I'm doing?"

"Because I suddenly feel like I'm getting to know you again. ”

"Then what are you laughing at?" Wu Wei became more and more angry the more he spoke, "Are you laughing at what I said? Do you think it's ridiculous for me to say that?"

Bai Luoshang shook his head: "I'm not joking at what you said, I'm laughing because I think what you said is too reasonable, I really didn't expect Second Master Wu to say such a reasonable thing." ”

"Am I an unreasonable person?"

"Sometimes it's very unreasonable. ”

Wu Wei stared at Bai Luoshang and was silent for a long time before he sighed: "Let's go, go to the flower hall, I have something to say to you." ”

Bai Luoshang nodded, and went to the flower hall with Wu Wei with Ochre Aya.

Xiumei brought a pot of tea.

Bai Luoshang didn't like tea, but he had to drink it, because Wu Wei said that he was about to say something very important, and he was afraid that Bai Luosheng would not be sober after drinking wine, so he only let Bai Luoshang drink tea.

"You must think that the killer just came by coincidence, right?" Wu Wei asked.

"Yes, that's what I thought. Bai Luoshang replied with a smile.

"You must be wondering why that killer is in the hallway of my room, right?"

"That's what I thought. ”

"Do you suspect that I let this person hide in the secret tunnels to assassinate you?"

"That's not what I thought. ”

"So you still believe in me. ”

Bai Luoshang smiled but did not speak.

Wu Wei gritted his teeth, "But you now know that this killer is here to kill me, right?"

Bai Luoshang nodded, "Yes." ”

Wu Wei said again: "You also know that I asked you to come, in fact, I want you to block this assassination for me, right?"

Bai Luoshang smiled: "Yes." ”

Wu Wei narrowed his eyes, "You should also know that I don't just want you to stop this killer, but I want you to kill him for me." ”

Bai Luoshang smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect this. ”

"So you let the people go. ”

"He escaped on his own. ”

"With your ability, you won't be able to hold him?"

Bai Luoshang did not explain.

Wu Wei sighed, "It's because you let people go, maybe he will arrange the next assassination." ”

Bai Luoshang blinked.

Wu Wei stared at Bai Luosheng's eyes and said word by word: "So you can't leave here for the time being, you have to ensure my safety." ”

Bai Luoshang blinked again, thinking, what does Wu Wei's safety have to do with himself? Is it necessary for him to be responsible for Wu Wei's safety?

Ochre Aya sneered and said what Bai Luosheng thought in her heart: "What does your safety have to do with us, do we need to be responsible for your safety?"

Wu Wei didn't get angry, but smiled with Xiumei: "I heard that Bai Luoshang is a nosy person. ”

Xiumei looked at Wu Wei's face, smiled and nodded.

Wu Wei turned his head to look at Bai Luoshang again, "If Bai Luoshang wants to take care of this matter, I will be safe." ”

Xiumei nodded, "He is a nosy person, and if he interferes in everything, he will definitely investigate it to the end." ”

"He is indeed that kind of person. Bai Luoshang took another shallow sip of tea, as if the person they were talking about was not him, but someone else.

"If he saves my life, I will repay him. Wu Wei said with a smile.

Bai Luoshang asked, "How can you thank him?"

"I must have invited him to drink good wine. ”

"That's it?"

"Ten days, please, and all of them are drunk with a pinch. ”

Bai Luoshang thought about it for a while, and finally nodded: "In this case, he may be very willing to take care of this idle matter." ”

Ochre Aya looked at Bai Luoshang in surprise, only to see that his face was resolute and crisp, without hesitation, and he couldn't help jumping up and said loudly: "You really have to be nosy!"
