Lin Jianlan was afraid that the two of them would immediately poison the guests in the opposite room, so he was about to open the door and go out, but he heard two screams of "ouch" and "sigh" inside, and the two were kicked out of the door and rolled on the ground a few times before stopping.

Lin Jianlan was really surprised at this time, and he didn't care about hiding his figure, he stood at the door of his room in a daze, and looked at the opposite side, but saw a young woman, with long black hair scattered and shawl, and a yellow shirt draped on her body at random, but inside was a water-red gown, with a graceful and slender posture, Ying Ying stood against the door, and held a long sword in her hand, revealing a pink arm, which was even more crystal round and snowy under the reflection of the moonlight.

The woman looked up and saw Lin Jianlan looking at her in a daze, her eyes were shining, the corners of her mouth were slightly upturned, and she smiled toothily, but she looked gorgeous and playful, and said, "Little brother, are you cunning, hiding behind the door to watch the fun?"

The voice came out, it was also like a silver bell, crisp, but in the ears, it felt soft, very ear-catching, Lin Jianlan listened to her question, his face turned red, and he said: "This girl, I heard these two people in the house have malicious intentions, so I secretly watched out behind the door, I wanted to go out and teach them a lesson just now, but I didn't expect the girl to be so outstanding, but I did it too much." Later, his face had returned to normal, less embarrassed, and his words were much more coherent.

The woman saw that he looked solemn and said very sincerely, "poof" covered her mouth and smiled, but she was very coquettish, and said: "How old are you, I think you are only fifteen or sixteen years old, how can you learn from those children of the rivers and lakes, meet people's faces, and pretend to be adults and call others 'girl' and 'girl'?"

Lin Jianlan has been in contact with a girl from Yin Yin since he came to Jiangnan, and he is also cold to him, he has been in the gang for a year, and he has not said a few words, and now when he hears this woman making fun of him, he suddenly lost his mind, and he didn't know how to answer correctly.

Seeing that he blushed again, the woman looked up and down and said, "If I don't have martial arts, will you take this stick to save me?"

Lin Jianlan listened to her question and replied: "I have a sword in the house, and I am afraid that I will hurt the lives of both of them, so I found a stick." ”

The woman was stunned for a moment, and muttered in a low voice, "You have a good heart." But his hands were not idle, he took the rope and tied the husband and wife into a knot, and then wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead with his arm, and said, "What is your name? Now I am familiar with the children of various sects at your age, why haven't I seen you?"

Lin Jianlan shook his head and said, "This aunt ...... I'm not from any sect, I'm just out to try to walk the rivers and lakes by myself. That one...... If I can't call you girl, what should I call you?"

When the woman saw him looking up and asking, her eyes were very serious, and she couldn't help but joke with him: "You must be younger than me, so call me sister!"

Lin Jianlan let out an "oh", nodded, and said: "The younger brother's surname is Lin Jianlan, and he dares to ask his sister's name." ”

Seeing that he took his joke seriously, the woman was a little surprised on her face, and immediately smiled at Lin Jianlan: "Ah, you are still serious! Since this is the case, I can't let you call me a sister in vain, my name is Lu Man, ah, by the way, you come with me!" After that, he took Lin Jianlan's hand and hurriedly ran to the next room, walked to the door and "snapped" the door and shouted: "Second senior brother!

The door of the house opened with a "squeak", and a person stepped out, Lu Man saw it and said: "Second senior brother, come out quickly! You can really sleep, I haven't heard such a big movement outside!" That person is Lu Man's senior brother Bai Zongping, who was woken up in his sleep, and was yawning to himself, when he suddenly saw Lu Man in disheveled clothes, holding a young man's hand, he suddenly opened his eyes, his heart was full of jealousy, and he was unhappy, but he only had a handsome face, and said lazily: "Little junior sister, what is the matter? Who is this child?"

Lu Man said with a smile: "What a child, he is not young, I recognized him as a younger brother, if it weren't for him, your little junior sister, I was sold to you, you don't know, look at how you go back and explain to my mother!" After that, he turned back to Lin Jianlan and said: "This is my second senior brother, whose surname is Bai Zongping." ”

Lin Jianlan was still holding one hand by Lu Man, and he couldn't hold his fists, so he had to smile at Bai Zongping and said, "Bai Shaoxia is good, the little brother is polite." ”

Bai Zongping came to his senses at this moment, and saw that Lin Jianlan was just a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy, and he didn't know what kind of flying vinegar he had just eaten, so he immediately smiled, and said to Lu Man with concern: "What's wrong?

Lu Man just said what happened just now, and Bai Zongping chuckled: "How can these two people be the opponents of the junior sister? He said hatefully: "What's the use of this, it's not as majestic as the senior brother." ”

Lin Jianlan saw that his tone and complexion were extremely frivolous, and he knew in his heart that the relationship between him and Lu Man was extraordinary, although Lu Man didn't care, he was a little embarrassed, so he slowly broke out his wrist, Lu Man glanced down, knowing that this young man had nothing else to think about him, and he was not reluctant, he gently let go of his hand and said to the two: "Anyway, I can't sleep well, I still have tea boiling in that room, let's go talk for a while." But he dragged his steps and refused to walk quickly, deliberately falling behind, and said softly with Bai Zongping: "Second Senior Brother, I know that this time my mother sent Senior Brother to Taihu Lake, you are unhappy, but you can't be less courteous." Bai Zongping said: "Hmph, the senior sister is deliberately partial, am I not as good as the senior brother in terms of martial arts?" Lu Man said with a smile: "Second senior brother said this again, sister, wouldn't I be very guilty?" It was I who begged my mother to let you accompany me to Luoyang, I knew ...... earlier" Bai Zongping hurriedly said: "Good junior sister, I don't mean that." Let that stupid piece of wood go to Taihu Lake by yourself, as long as you accompany me, I will ......" Lu Man smiled and said, "Then the second senior brother is not going to enter the house quickly!"

Lin Jianlan was in front, and the voices of the two of them were not deliberately concealed, but they heard it clearly, and said in their hearts: "It turns out that they are three senior brothers and sisters, and the senior brother was sent to Taihu Lake. Although Bai Zongping was very jealous of the opportunity for the senior brother to show his face, he was obedient to what this sister said, as if he was willing. ”

When he entered the house, he smelled a burst of tea fragrance, Lu Man brought the teacup to Lin Jianlan and said with a smile: "Brother, you taste it, this is the tea I brought from home." ”

Lin Jianlan saw that Lu Man's face was like a flower blooming in the mist, and his eyes were as dark as night in the water vapor, staring at himself, he hurriedly lowered his head, took the teacup, smelled it, and took a sip lightly, Fang raised his head, smiled at Lu Man's eyes and asked him, "How?"

Lin Jianlan tasted it again and said: "Sister Man, this tea is different from what I have drunk before, the previous tea leaves were bitter and fragrant, but this one does not taste any bitterness, but has a sweet flower aroma." ”

Lu Man tilted his head and said, "Sister Man, this title is very good." You're right, this is our family's specialty tea, the name is oolong tea, but I'm different, I add orchids and osmanthus in it, I call it orchid tea. ”

Lin Jianlan took another sip, the sweet fragrance was refreshing, and his spirit couldn't help but lift his spirits, he had no intention of sleeping peacefully, at this moment the thunder was rolling outside, the rain was pouring down, and he drank this good tea again, under the light of the candlelight, a pair of eyes were even brighter and full of spirit, Lu Manzhiyi frowned and pondered for a while, and Fang said slowly: "Why did my brother come here in this deserted village?"

Lin Jianlan wanted to say that he got lost after coming down from Baiyun Temple, but when the words came to his lips, he changed his words: "I booked a room in an inn in Sanyuan City, and then I came out to wander around, and somehow walked out of the city, only vaguely remembering that I went back to Sanyuan to the north, but I came here." ”

Lu Man smiled slightly, took out a hairpin from her long hair, flicked the wick of the candle casually, and said nothing, a few lightning flashes came down, and her face was as white as snow, Bai Zongping paced a few steps, but he couldn't hold his breath and said: "This brother, we met in Pingshui, what my junior sister said about my sister and brother is all a joke, don't take it seriously, if someone asks you if they have seen us, you can't tell the truth, otherwise our whole faction will have a hard time with you." ”

Lin Jianlan was about to answer, but saw Lu Man poke the candle tears dripping from the candle a few times and said: "Alas, second senior brother, why are you so anxious, frightening him, my brother seems to be an honest man, and he will never talk about it, right?"

Lin Jianlan was stunned for a moment and asked, "Sister Man, have you met the enemy?"

Lu Man smiled: "Maybe it's an enemy, but it's not an encounter, it's us who provoked it ourselves." ”

Bai Zongping hurriedly said: "Senior sister, don't tell him, I don't know what he is doing, wouldn't it be bad if he sold us......?"

Lu Man said with a sullen face: "The second senior brother is still so indiscriminate and wants to do it, the younger brother just gave up the long sword and used a wooden stick, it can be seen that he is a kind-hearted person, why did you forget what happened to Qiyunlou in Yangzhou?"

That Bai Zongping was reprimanded, but he didn't dare to talk back, just muttered a few words with a displeased look on his face, and then sat down, Lin Jianlan hurriedly said: "Brother Bai is also thinking about Sister Man, and what he said is not unreasonable." He didn't know that Bai Zongping was not very kind-hearted, and if it wasn't for Lu Man to stop him, he would have already thought of extinguishing his mouth. He looked up and saw that it was pitch black outside, but the sound was still pouring rain, and he vaguely heard the husband and wife praying and wailing in the rain, and stood up and said: "Sister Man, Brother Bai, we also meet here by fate, anyway, if someone asks, I won't reveal that I have seen the two here, is this feasible?"

Lu Man said with a smile: "I have never doubted my brother, since this is the case, we have to hurry tomorrow, let's go out to see how the husband and wife are doing, and then we will rest separately." The three of them walked out of the room, and saw that the two were in the rain in the patio, although it was the height of summer at this time, but they were also shivering by the heavy rain, leaning on each other, Lin Jianlan stood under the eaves and said solemnly: "You two are planted in our hands, what else do you have to say? This black shop has harmed many passers-by, and today I have to ask you to pay for your lives!" The little two nodded like garlic and said: "Grandpa, don't spare your life!" Our husband and wife have been operating here for a short time, who knows that the land in this village has been circled by some dignitaries, everyone has fled, and the business is becoming more and more difficult to do, so today I made a decision to make a deal, I didn't expect to meet your old man for the first time, but we have not harmed a life......!"

Lu Man saw that he was wordy, and couldn't help but "poof" and said: "Brother, I don't think they dare not tell the truth, so let them go." Lin Jianlan frowned and said: "Could it be that the fields of ordinary people are forcibly occupied by them?" The little two hurriedly said: "The little ones don't dare to lie, they naturally don't occupy it by force, they say that they bought it with silver, but dozens of acres of land are only thrown to the people for a few dollars of silver, isn't it the same as forcibly occupying?"

Lin Jianlan said: "Then can't you not sell it?" The little second smiled and said: "My master, I'm afraid you're not a local, right? If you don't sell it, then it's even worse, what crime will be charged to you, so that your family will be ruined overnight." ”

Lin Jianlan shook his head and sighed: "In this case, I believe you." Lu Man asked the shopkeeper, "What's your name?" The shopkeeper hurriedly said, "The little one's name is Yu Sigou." Lu Man was happy again, took out a few ingots of silver from his waist and said, "What a strange name, you can accept these silvers." His face turned cold and he said: "In the future, I will live a serious life, and I will no longer think about harming others, I will be known that I am not as good-looking as you!"

The two took the silver tael, and thanked them and said: "Female Bodhisattva, you don't dare to harm people, the incense is still what we begged many people to buy with money, and the first time it has already scared the two of us, if you meet a female Bodhisattva like this who looks delicate but hides deeply, if there is no mercy in your heart, the lives of our two people are not in vain?"

Lu Man waved his hand and said: "Don't be wordy, it gives me a headache when I hear it, I have to tell you, if someone asks you if you have seen the three of us, you can't say that you have seen it, otherwise it won't be as simple as raining, go down!"

The two of them bowed down and swore again, Fang walked out of the door, Lu Man turned around and said, "Senior brother, go back to the house to rest, I'll send my brother over." After that, he walked to Lin Jianlan's room opposite, and saw that the room was indeed as Lin Jianlan said, the long sword that didn't come in handy was placed on the table, and it looked like a famous weapon from the scabbard.
