Chapter 192: Friends
Gu Shenwei was pondering what the information he got from Xu Yanwei was useful, and the prostitute upstairs spoke again, "Don't always think about your master, take care of my little brother when you want." ”
Xu Yanwei's interest in Shangguan Fei has long been exhausted, and if there is still a man in this world that she has always cared about, there is only Xu Xiaoyi.
"I'm fine, I don't need to be babysitted. Xu Xiaoyi hurriedly said, but his face was red.
"He was also fascinated by men. Xu Yanwei's tone was disdainful, she didn't care so much about the special habits of the Nine Young Masters.
Xu Xiaoyi is small and delicate, but he has a bit of a male pet temperament, Gu Shenwei has seen a lot in Nancheng, and he doesn't care much, "You didn't dedicate him to the Ninth Young Master?"
"Who are you and our brother and sister?" Xu Yan said angrily, slapping the railing.
Before Gu Shenwei could speak, Xu Xiaoyi hurriedly explained, "That's not what I mean, I made a friend." ”
When it came to the word "befriending", Xu Xiaoyi straightened his waist and said in a very formal tone, which made Gu Shenwei sure that his understanding just now was indeed wrong, "It's not good, if you have a friend to take care of it, you don't need me to take care of it." ”
The two sisters and brothers rushed to speak, Xu Xiaoyi just opened his mouth, and Xu Yanwei upstairs was already one step ahead of him, "But the friend he made was a strange child, he came here in the middle of the night before yesterday, not to say that he had to kill Xiaoyi, looking at him, I thought he was real, but he muttered for a long time and ran away." I see, he's not normal, Xiaoyi is better to stay away from him as far away as possible. ”
Gu Shenwei's first reaction was that things wouldn't be so coincidental, but he immediately recalled that this was not a coincidence, wasn't it Xu Xiaoyi who was called upstairs to tell fortunes at that time? "That kid, what does he look like?"
"Uh, it looks like-" Xu Xiaoyi was still looking for words to describe his good friend, Xu Yanwei rushed ahead of him again, "He looks like a girl, the first time I saw him, I thought Xiaoyi had finally opened up." ”
"His name is Chu Nanping, and he is from Wangcheng Lane. ”
"Hey, how do you know? He told me to keep it a secret, didn't he keep it a secret himself?"
Xu Yan upstairs covered his stomach and smiled, "It turned out to be a child from Wangcheng Lane, no wonder, brother, treat others well." Hey, let the bitches starve to death. ”
The killer didn't smile, his serious expression surprised both siblings, "That kid is not an ordinary person. ”
"Yes, he is very good at martial arts, and he is also very ...... in speech It's special, unlike anyone I've ever met. Xu Xiaoyi said happily, unaware that he was in danger.
"He is the attendant of the Peng Immortals. ”
Xu Xiaoyi was stunned for a moment, he had been on the third floor of the Proud Building, but he had never seen the real Peng Xianren and Chu Nanping behind the screen, and he always thought that his good friend was the son of a craftsman in Wangcheng Lane.
"He's not kidding if he wants to kill you. ”
Xu Xiaoyi chuckled, "You're ......" but "Brother Huan" never jokes, "You mean it?"
"He's going to kill you for practice. ”
"Kill me to practice? I—I'm not as strong as a mouse, what can I practice?"
"He is a disciple of the 'Immortals', and his practice method is naturally different. ”
The Xu sisters and brothers really believed it this time, and they all opened their mouths in surprise, Xu Yanwei couldn't think of a solution, snorted, turned around and entered the room, the door was not closed, and ran out again, pointing at the killer, "Our sister and brother have given you their lives, you have to protect us." ”
Gu Shenwei shook his head, "I'm a killer, not a bodyguard." ”
Xu Xiaoyi was so frightened that he couldn't speak, but Xu Yanwei changed his attitude and smiled, "Uncle Huan, killers use knives, bodyguards also use knives, it's all about the same, although Xiaoyi is not very obedient, it is somewhat useful, wouldn't it be better to keep him to find out the news for you?"
"I said I was a killer, I didn't say I wouldn't protect him. ”
Xu Yan frowned slightly and stomped his feet, "Make fun of people." ”
"If I kill Chu Nanping, he won't be able to kill Xiaoyi. ”
This is Gu Shen's plan, simple and direct, although Chu Nanping is still a child, it will be a disaster sooner or later, and it is safest to kill it at this time.
"You don't have to kill. Xu Xiaoyi said boldly.
"Either I kill him, or he kills you. ”
Xu Xiaoyi lowered his head in frustration, he had never had a friend, and Brother Huan was just a good master, Chu Nanping was different, he still remembered the first time this child talked to him, he was so shy that he didn't dare to speak, and when he spoke, he was straightforward, as if he had never had a relationship with a normal person.
Since the first time they met, Chu Nanping has often come to play with him, Xu Xiaoyi is a few years older than him, but the two are about the same size, they look the same immature, walking outside, everyone treats them as children of the same age.
Xu Xiaoyi knows Nancheng well, Chu Nanping is ignorant of everything, listens a lot, talks little, and does not refuse Xu Xiaoyi's ghost ideas, they have stolen things in the tavern together, fought with wild children, and eavesdropped on the roof of the brothel to listen to the strange sounds below.
The past two months have been the happiest time in Xu Xiaoyi's life.
Xu Xiaoyi was still immersed in good memories, and Gu Shenwei had already begun to prepare to kill, "Don't do business in the past two days, don't go out, stay at home." ”
"No business? I've managed to get a rich regular, and he's coming tonight." ”
"Then let your brother die. ”
Xu Yanwei stomped his feet again, gritted his teeth and thought for a while, "Okay, listen to you, alas, hundreds of taels of silver, he must have used it to fool around with other women." ”
After that, she went back to her room and was stunned for a moment, no guests came to the door, no need to put on makeup, tidy up the bedding, she didn't know what to do.
There are chefs who specialize in preparing banquets for various brothels in Liuren Lane, and in the evening they brought the wine and food that had been booked, Xu Xiaoyi did not retreat, but stayed to share them with Brother Huan.
After it was completely dark, the most lively moment in Liuren Lane arrived, someone knocked on the door, Gu Shenwei hid by the door in advance, holding a narrow knife in his hand, Xu Xiaoyi opened a crack in the door, and apologized to the guests outside, the guests were very unhappy, "Look down on me? ”
"No, no, you always know, routine illness, we don't want you to spend money in vain, do we?"
The guests were finally sent away, and Xu Xiaoyi breathed a sigh of relief.
Back at the dinner table, Gu Shenwei asked, "Your sister's regular customer is Guan Houlin?"
Xu Xiaoyi scratched his ears, his sister had a new acquaintance every few days, and he would soon become a stranger again, and he couldn't remember it.
"That's him. Xu Yanwei stood upstairs again, she couldn't make up her mind, she swallowed melon seeds in her mouth, and carefully arranged the shells on the railing, "Slaves want to know what kind of women the master has touched, especially the slaves who have a little money." ”
"When he comes back—"
"If you offend someone, who knows if you will come again. ”
"It will come, when the time comes, you have to ask him, the ninth young master is ...... Who is the good person. ”
"Haha, 'good guy', is that the new name? I think they're all male bitches. Well, I'll ask for you. ”
"Don't let him hear the flaws. ”
"Cut, I have the ability to let him tell the truth from his heart, and I don't remember anything afterwards, believe it?"
Gu Shenwei didn't squeak, he just wanted the result, and he didn't want to know what means the woman upstairs used.
The night was getting deeper and deeper, Xu Yanwei wrapped the melon seed shell with a handkerchief, went back to the room to sleep, and was still nagging, "How can you sleep so early, a useless man, a useless man, alas, it's really ......"
Xu Xiaoyi cleaned up the broken table, cleaned the floor, and fiddled with the furniture, and when he didn't have a moment to spare, Gu Shenwei knew that he was scared, "Soon, he said yesterday that he would kill you in three days, and it will be over tomorrow at the latest." ”
"Can I persuade him? If he doesn't practice this kind of evil martial arts, he may change his mind, and he has always listened to me. ”
"Maybe he'll listen to you, maybe he'll kill you, and if you want to reason with him, I can't guarantee your safety. ”
Xu Xiaoyi sighed, thinking that the people in Wangcheng Lane really had problems, and when he first went, he was worried that he would be "taken alike" by others, but he didn't expect him to really say it, kill people, kill people, but make friends before you do it.
On the third watch, the streets and alleys outside began to be deserted, Xu Xiaoyi sat on a chair and staggered and napped, and Gu Shenwei stood motionless in the shadow of the corner.
There was a slight scream from upstairs.
Xu Xiaoyi was excited, and when he looked up, Brother Huan in the corner was gone, so he couldn't care about being scared anymore, and shouted at the top of his voice: "Xiao Chu, run! There is a killer!"
As soon as the scream came out, Gu Shenwei jumped up to the second floor and rushed into Xu Yanwei's bedroom.
A dark figure was standing beside the bed, knife in hand.
The screams had not stopped, and Xu Xiaoyi's reminder had only issued the first word, and Gu Shenwei's sword had already pierced into the neck of the black shadow.
The black shadow fell on the side of the bed, Xu Yanwei finally couldn't hold back her scream, trembling, "Aren't you trying to kill Xiaoyi?
"It's not him. ”
The black shadow is obviously an adult, not a teenager Chu Nanping.
Gu Shenwei lit the fuel lamp, "Why don't you wear clothes?"
Xu Yan pulled up the corner of the quilt slightly, "Of course you don't wear clothes when you sleep." ”
Gu Shenwei brought the oil lamp close to the deceased, he had never seen it before, and it seemed to be an ordinary swordsman.
He dragged the body out of the bedroom, threw it in the doorway, broke the wound with a narrow knife, then extinguished the oil lamp, and went downstairs to stand in the corner again.
"Not him?" asked the pale-faced Xu Xiaoyi.
"It's not. ”
"Hey, I just ...... I don't know how to call it out. ”
"It's okay, I can kill him just as well. ”
After some experience in the proud building, Gu Shenwei became more confident in the "Book of the Dead", not to mention that Chu Nanping was still a child, and among the many disciples of Peng Xianren, he was far from being a master.
After a while, Xu Yanwei, who was neatly dressed, also went downstairs, "What the hell is going on, who is this person, why do you want to kill me?"
No one answered, and Gu Shenwei guessed roughly what was going on, but he didn't know the specific reason.
There was a knock on the door outside, it was so late, it couldn't be a guest, and it wouldn't be an assassin, Xu Xiaoyi's face turned white again, because Chu Nanping often came to play with him in the middle of the night.
Gu Shenwei went to open the door first, and it was the lotus girl who came in, Xu Xiaoyi's pounding heart returned to normal, and he didn't know how many times he could withstand such a shock.
"Someone is going to kill you. As soon as the lotus girl came in, she glanced upstairs, she was a killer and had a keen intuition for the dead, "It is rumored that you stole the treasure of the Peng Immortals, and everyone wants a share." ”
