In Zhuwan Village in the south of the city, there are several private houses scattered on the ground. There are more than 20 families here, life is plain and warm, one day, there is a villager who went to Wuchang to catch the market, came back to show off how prosperous Wuchang is, the rest of the villagers can't hold back, they have moved away, and there is no one in this place.

Xiao Yusheng led Lu Sanchuan all the way to a private house before he dared to stop and gasp. Although it was late autumn, after running for two hours in a row, Lu Sanchuan still felt like a fire, sweat kept forcing out, wet clothes, and his palms were also wet, stinging the wound.

He sat down slowly with his left hand against the wall, and pinched the collar with his right hand and pulled it in, letting the wind leak into his chest, so that it was cooler.

Xiao Yusheng was also exhausted, one hand was attached to the back of the door, the other hand was supported on the waist, the exhalation was too fast and the inhalation was too slow, the breath could not enter, and the stomach became more and more flattened.

gasped for breath of about a stick of incense.

Xiao Yusheng finally straightened up, walked to the table in the dark, and lit the oil lamp. The room suddenly became much brighter.

Lu Sanchuan looked up, but saw that the beds and cabinets in the house were complete, the tables and chairs were brand new and dust-free, and they did not look like an abandoned place at all. Half a foot away from the bed, there is a reclining chair. At first glance, it was just an ordinary recliner, Lu Sanchuan's eyes swept over, and he always felt that something was wrong, and after a closer look, he found that there was a short stick more than a foot long on each of the left and right armrests.

Xiao Yusheng saw Lu Sanchuan staring at the recliner, his cheeks turned red, and he grabbed Lu Sanchuan's right hand to inspect the injury. The blood in the wound of Lu Sanchuan's palm has coagulated, although the pain has not completely disappeared, it is only intermittent, after she pulled like this, the wound cracked again, the pain returned, and she couldn't help but groan softly.

Xiao Yusheng screamed: "Ah, young master, your hand is bleeding again!"

Lu Sanchuan looked down, saw that blood was flowing out, smiled bitterly, and said, "It's not a big deal, just rest for a while." ”

Xiao Yusheng said: "You wait, I'll go get you a piece of cloth to bandage it." She went and opened a wardrobe and pulled out of it a red garment.

Lu Sanchuan looked around left and right, although he didn't see anyone, he still felt that it was inappropriate, and persuaded: "Miss Sheng... This is someone else's house, and it is wrong for us to forcibly break in, and if we touch other people's belongings, wouldn't it be a big mistake?"

Xiao Yusheng took the scissors and cut off a long piece of cloth, and said, "What other people's residence, this is my home." ”

"What?" Lu Sanchuan was slightly surprised, and looked at the house carefully, only then did he see that the house was dressed like the wooden house at the foot of Jinji Mountain, which was very bright, "But Brother Yuan said that your family was killed by all the bandits..."

Xiao Yusheng put down the scissors and walked over as if nothing happened, wrapped the red cloth around his palm a few times, and then tied a bow to fix it, and said with a smile: "This should be better." Young master, after running so many roads, you should be tired, so you might as well go to bed and rest. ”

Lu Sanchuan looked at the bow, he liked it very much, and was about to go to the bedside, but when he saw her open the door, he was worried, and asked, "Miss Sheng, where are you going?"

Xiao Yusheng turned his back to him, looking at the endless night, his voice was a little ethereal, "I'm just, waiting for my brother to come back." ”

"Hmm..."Lu Sanchuan had no reason to hate Yuan Boyun, if it weren't for him, he and Xiao Yusheng would have turned into ghosts under the knife, "Then I'll accompany you." ”

"No need!" Xiao Yusheng said, "Young Master, you better go and rest." ”

Lu Sanchuan stopped talking, walked to the bedside, and was about to lie down, remembering that his sweat smelled unpleasant, and said in his heart: Miss Sheng's boudoir is so fragrant, how can I spoil it? He turned around, went to the table and sat down, glanced at Xiao Yusheng who was sitting at the door, and fell asleep.

.

Lu Sanchuan slept in a daze, felt that his right leg was abnormally sore, and with a muffled snort, he reached out to rub it, but heard Xiao Yusheng scream. He thought that someone was killing again, so he suddenly woke up and shouted, "Miss Sheng, don't be afraid, I'm here!"

It turned out that Yuan Boyun was back.

Yuan Boyun's clothes were torn, his left sleeve was cut twice, revealing his blood-stained arm, and there were also three on his right sleeve, one on his chest and one on his back, but he was energetic and seemed to be fine. He raised his hand and patted Xiao Yusheng's back on the back, comforting: "I'm fine, don't cry." ”

Xiao Yusheng was reluctant to let go of his arms. Yuan Boyun suddenly sank his face, turned his left hand into a claw, grabbed Xiao Yusheng's neck bone and lifted it gently, Xiao Yusheng had to let go of his arms. He gently brushed aside Xiao Yusheng, walked to the table, bowed to Lu Sanchuan, and said humbly: "Young master, I frightened you." ”

Lu Sanchuan smiled slightly and said, "It's not a big deal. ”

Yuan Boyun was also relieved, but saw Lu Sanchuan's right hand wrapped in a red cloth, his eyebrows tightened, and asked, "Young master, your hand..."

Lu Sanchuan raised his right hand and looked at it, and said with a smile: "The situation was urgent, there was no way. ”

Xiao Yusheng followed, looked up at Yuan Boyun, and said, "The young master was injured to save me." ”

Yuan Boyun smiled and said, "The young master really cares about Yusheng. ”

Lu Sanchuan glanced at Xiao Yusheng and did not speak again.

Yuan Boyun was about to say something, but suddenly smelled a sour smell, and couldn't help frowning and pinching his nose. Lu Sanchuan also smelled it, raised his arms and sniffed again, and said embarrassedly: "It's me..."

Seeing Yuan Boyun return safely, Xiao Yusheng was obviously in a very happy mood, he was not spoiled by the sourness, he always had a smiling face, and said: "The young master ran for two hours in a row and sweated a lot, which exuded a sour smell. ”

Yuan Boyun also smiled, turned to look at Xiao Yusheng, and said, "Also, it's time to take a bath, but it's inconvenient for the young master." Yusheng, you take care of it. ”

Xiao Yusheng's smile stopped suddenly, looked at Yuan Boyun blankly, and responded with an "oh".

Lu Sanchuan hurriedly said: "This little injury is not a big deal, I can do it alone!"

Yuan Boyun said: "Having said that, after all, there is an injury to your right hand, and it is a little inconvenient, so let Yusheng help you some, after all, you saved her life, and she will repay you for helping you like this." ”

Lu Sanchuan wanted to shirk again, opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word for a long time.

Yuan Boyun said again: "Young master, Yusheng, you should be hungry after running for a long time, so I will go to the town first and buy some food and come back." With that, he glanced at Xiao Yusheng and walked out of the house.

Lu Sanchuan nodded, "Well, go early and come back early." ”

Xiao Yusheng lowered his head, his eyes turned left and right with some embarrassment, and he said hesitantly: "I... I'm going to boil water for the young master. Follow Yuan Boyun out of the house.

When it was ready, Lu Sanchuan opened the screen and stepped into the barrel. The heat penetrated into his pores, making him shiver, as if all his fatigue had risen with the heat. The tired flesh is soaked in hot water, and there is an indescribable pleasure. Lu Sanchuan closed his eyes and enjoyed it quietly, but Xiao Yusheng's voice and smile appeared in his mind.

"Young master. ”

He thought it was Xiao Yusheng in his brain calling him, smiled, and replied softly, "Yusheng." ”

"Young master, I'll help you take a bath. ”

He was naturally happy, but because of etiquette and morality, he struggled for a moment in his heart, and said, "How can this be?"

"It's fine. ”

But suddenly his shoulders were cold. He opened his eyes suddenly, and saw that Xiao Yusheng had taken off his clothes, his cheeks were crimson, his eyes were blurred, and he was looking at him with a smile.

Lu Sanchuan hurriedly covered his crotch and turned his head, wanting to look at it but not daring to look at it, and muttered: "Miss Sheng, you... How do you..."

Xiao Yusheng stepped into the barrel.

Lu Sanchuan trembled suddenly, his heartbeat became more and more violent, and he almost broke his chest, and he couldn't even speak clearly. "Miss Sheng... Confucius Sage Cloud... Say... Li Taibai... Men and women..."

Xiao Yusheng smiled, holding his face with both hands, and his voice was low and charming, "Young master, I'll help you take a bath...". She galloped through the barrels. Lu Sanchuan always held the barrel firmly, his eyes were closed, and he let out a muffled moan from time to time, until the wind and waves subsided and the spring waves gradually stopped, and he let out a long breath from his throat.

Xiao Yusheng leaned nakedly on Lu Sanchuan's chest and said shyly: "Young master... You saved my life, and I gave you my most precious thing... Don't dislike me. ”

Lu Sanchuan was very happy in his heart, hugged Xiao Yusheng tightly, and kissed her lightly, "If you don't give up, I will depend on life and death." ”

When Yuan Boyun came back, they had already finished taking a shower and were sitting at the table talking, and their words were very intimate. Yuan Boyun put the roast chicken, steamed buns and soju on the table, sat down and said, "Young master, that's all there is in the nearby town, please don't dislike it." ”

Lu Sanchuan didn't pick and choose, and he had just enjoyed the joy of men and women, he was very happy, so he naturally wouldn't dislike it, so he grabbed a bun and handed it to Xiao Yusheng, "Yusheng, eat a bun." ”

From "Sheng Girl" to "Jade Sheng", Yuan Boyun naturally guessed what happened to the two of them when he was away, and he didn't say anything, just smiled and picked up a wine glass, poured a glass of soju, and put it in front of Lu Sanchuan.

Lu Sanchuan raised his glass to drink, and Yuan Boyun hurriedly said: "Young master, drinking on an empty stomach hurts your body, so let's eat something else first." Lu Sanchuan said with a smile: "Manly man, don't be informal!" After that, he drank it all, but he still couldn't eat the taste of the wine, and his throat was spicy and hot.

Yuan Boyun praised: "The young master is so heroic!" and filled Lu Sanchuan with a full glass.

Lu Sanchuan took another bite.

With six cups like this, Lu Sanchuan was already confused and dizzy, and there seemed to be two Yuan Boyun and four Xiao Yusheng in front of him.

Yuan Boyun saw that his face was flushed, his eyes were half squinted, and he knew that he could no longer drink, so he took a meat bun and handed it to him. He stretched out his hand and grabbed it with five fingers, but it was empty.

I was really drunk.

Xiao Yusheng grabbed Lu Sanchuan's left hand, shook it, and said softly: "Young master, are you okay?"

Lu Sanchuan laughed, shook his hand, and said, "Drink!"

Yuan Boyun and Xiao Yusheng glanced at each other, showed a sly smile, and said to Lu Sanchuan: "Young master, I will go home in a while, leaving Yusheng alone, she must be afraid, otherwise, you will hand over the knife score of the Youlong Yin Knife to her, let her practice, so that no one can hurt Yusheng." ”

Lu Sanchuan was confused when he heard it, "The sword spectrum of the dragon sword... Knife spectrum... The knife spectrum is not on me. ”

Yuan Boyun poked his head over and asked in a low voice, "Where is the knife spectrum?"

The door was suddenly kicked open, and a woman with a sword in one hand, dressed in a pale yellow Luo skirt, and an expressionless face entered.

Yuan Boyun's heart trembled, he was quite annoyed, he held his sword in front of him, and shouted to Xiao Yusheng: "Protect the young master!"

The woman snorted coldly and walked towards Lu Sanchuan, ignoring him at all.

He only felt that there was no light on his face, his heart was horizontal, and he drew his sword and stabbed at the woman, but before the sword was exhausted, the woman drew her sword and attacked him, and the speed was very urgent. He was taken aback and tried to withdraw his sword to dodge, but it was too late, and the sword stabbed him in the heart.

Xiao Yusheng screamed, grabbed the jade flute and slashed at the woman's head, the woman twisted her body and flashed, and the long sword flew to stab, ending Xiao Yusheng's life.

Lu Sanchuan was so frightened that he was completely drunk, and he watched Xiao Yusheng die with hatred, grief-stricken, and wanted to fight with the woman, but when his eyes fell on the woman, he couldn't believe it.

That woman was the one he saved from Tong Qi in Jiangzhou City that day.

was stunned for only a moment, Lu Sanchuan ignored the injury of his right hand, shouted and shook his fist at the woman, the woman just turned sideways slightly, the scabbard was between Lu Sanchuan's ribs, and Lu Sanchuan's right arm suddenly softened. He did not compromise, and his left fist went again, but it was still in vain. The woman struck a kick and tripped him to the ground.

Lu Sanchuan was so hateful that he was about to get up, but when he saw a cold sword dripping with blood in front of him, he had no choice but to stop moving. Despite this, the bloodshot in his eyes never subsided, and he glared at the woman and said fiercely: "Who are you?"

The woman's face was cold, and her voice was cold: "Su Qing." ”

"Su Qing?" Lu Sanchuan thought for a moment, he had never heard of this name, "What kind of grudge do I have against you!"

Su Qing's pretty face was expressionless, "You have a favor with me, and I am here to repay the kindness." ”

"Repaying gratitude?" Lu Sanchuan sneered, raised his hand and pointed at the corpses of Yuan Boyun and Xiao Yusheng, his eyes became wet, and he said fiercely: "Is this what you said about repaying gratitude?"

Su Qing said: "If it weren't for me, you would have been a dead corpse long ago." ”

"Dead corpses?" Lu Sanchuan was slightly stunned, and then roared, "Nonsense! Brother Yuan is the son of Uncle Yuan, how could he harm me! Yusheng is..."

"It's a poor man, isn't it?"

Lu Sanchuan was stunned, staring at Su Qing blankly and speechless, and listened to Su Qing continue to say, "Yuan Qiming has no heirs", before replying: "Nonsense! Uncle Yuan..."

Su Qing interrupted him, "The Yuan Boyun in your mouth, whose real name is Shi Boyun, is Yuan Qiming's disciple, his martial arts are lowly and scheming, and he only enters the Yuan Mansion by fighting people's sympathy, so he knows you a little." Besides, don't you suspect that Yuan Qiming wants to harm you, why do you call him Uncle Yuan again?"

Lu Sanchuan didn't know what to say, he just looked at Su Qing in a daze, and Su Qing said again: "Last night, someone wanted to kill you, a total of thirteen people. In addition to the four fools you defeated, there are also nine people fighting with Shi Boyun, do you think that with his martial arts, it is enough to defeat nine with one?"

Lu Sanchuan became more and more reluctant to believe it, but the truth was like this, "You mean... Those people last night... It's Yuan... Did Shi Boyun find it? But they really want to kill Yusheng!"

Su Qing suddenly sneered, and glanced at Xiao Yusheng's corpse, "Shi Boyun has already annoyed that woman, and when he discussed with them, he didn't explain that he couldn't hurt her life. If she dies and is in the works, if she is safe and sound, so good. ”

Lu Sanchuan was so stunned that he even forgot to blink, "You... What does it mean..."

Su Qing was silent, walked to the cabinet, opened the wardrobe and took out a red coat at random, and wiped off the blood stains on the sword body.

Lu Sanchuan's eyes widened, but he didn't have much strength, and shouted: "You... What are you doing. ”

Su Qing said: "Aren't you wondering, this village has been abandoned for a long time, but why is this house all available." ”

"Why?"

Su Qing turned his head to look at him and smiled coldly, "It's really an elm head." She was originally a Qinglou woman, and she had a lot of friends with Shi Boyun, so she had feelings. Shi Boyun gave her the jade flute, and she became more and more desperate. And they dwelt in this house. Then you appeared in Yuan's house, and Shi Boyun had bad intentions and used her as bait to lure you into the bait. The wooden houses at the foot of the mountain are just makeshifts. Look at the chaise longue, it's for socializing. ”

Lu Sanchuan's anger boiled suddenly, dragged up his originally weak body, and smashed his fist at Su Qing, Su Qing quickly raised his sword and put it on his shoulder, he ignored it completely, and still rushed forward. Su Qing was helpless, put his sword into the sheath, and stepped out of the palm, knocking him back two steps. "Hmph, the facts are so clear, but I can't tell the difference. Why, having a good time with that prostitute, blindfolded?" After speaking, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and he added, "Do you want to try it with me?"

Lu Sanchuan said angrily: "You are the prostitute played by ten thousand people!"

Su Qing raised his hand and slapped him in the face, "Don't toast, don't eat, eat and drink!"

Lu Sanchuan was not weak at all, glared at his eyes and roared: "It's you who don't respect the first!"

Su Qing's expression has not changed for ten years, but at this time, he also glared, and a green tendon at the end of his eyebrows burst out, green and fat like an insect, which was very terrifying, "Look at that woman, when she was having fun with you, did she have a red rope wrapped around her wrist!"

"It's... This..."Lu Sanchuan didn't open his eyes at that time, so naturally he didn't see it, but he knew that Xiao Yusheng did indeed have a red rope tied to his wrist.

Su Qing said again: "This is exactly the habit of prostitutes, wrap a red rope around their wrists, and when they accompany customers, they are not naked, so as to be innocent." ”

Lu Sanchuan had never been to Qinglou, so he didn't know if it was the case, but after listening to Su Qing's more detailed description, he already believed it in his heart. He hung his head and pulled his ears, and he was very decadent. It turns out that everything is fake?

Suddenly, I felt a feeling of disgust in my chest, and I opened my mouth to vomit, and my stomach was empty, except for soju, which churned in my stomach and vomited out along with the stomach acid. After a few breaths of heavy breath, the annoyance returned, and the mouth opened and vomited, and so on eight times, until he was exhausted and dizzy.

"Huh. He stooped over the wooden table and smiled bitterly, closing his eyes in pain.

I only want to change my name incognito and be an ordinary person, but why is it so difficult? Everyone is my enemy, and everything is against me, is it really that the sky has no eyes and the fate is unfair?

After a moment, he looked up at Su Qing and said with a calm face: "I want to learn knives." Teach me. ”
