Two more days passed, and this was night, and it was the awakening to be on duty to patrol the night.

Speaking of which, Xingyan is still mainly working as a musician in the music class, and the errand of this nursing home is only a part-time job. The original intention of the old bustard Aunt Xia was to only regard this errand as a benefit for making meritorious contributions and a reason for rewarding many silver coins. Therefore, after a long time, it will be the turn of the awakening to be on duty.

This opportunity to patrol the night, in the eyes of this young man who has decided to be a Feng woman again, has a different meaning from the past. I heard that I was on duty tonight, and I made up my mind that I would take this opportunity to coax that cold man into deceiving Sister Rui, so I could make a decision!

Like other nursing home patrols, this awakening is carrying an angry wind lamp, walking back and forth between the houses in front and back of this Huayue Building to see what is wrong.

Don't look at the face of this Huayue Building, but the depth before and after is really not small. This building is the first in Raozhou, and the scale is not small; there are many halls and buildings in front and back, and there are some garden pools in the middle that are suitable for the scene, covering an area quite large.

Look up at the sky, covered by flowing clouds, and the moonlight is slightly hazy - he~~ It is a good time to do something that is not embarrassing or embarrassing!

Let's say that Xingyan shouted a few times before and after this building, and then he took a look at the empty space and flashed into the kitchen. The stove lady has long been rested, and the kitchen is empty. Xingyan took out a handful of grass and wood ashes under the stove, mixed it with a little water, and then applied it to his face horizontally and vertically, so as to hide his true face.

He was about to go out of the door, when his legs and feet had just crossed the threshold, but he hesitated again and crapped back into the room. It turned out that the thoughtful awakening was still a little uneasy. After all, this time is different, maybe you have to meet your acquaintances, it's better to be more careful!

So, Xingyan rummaged around the kitchen again, and found a fairly clean soap-colored cloth. I saw that he took off his original scarf, let the hair fall behind his head, and then took the strip of soap cloth, swept the roots of his hair, tied it tightly, and covered his forehead - I think that the awakening had changed into a set of clothes that he did not wear often before the night patrol tonight, and after this change, it was already unrecognizable.

It is estimated that in this hazy night, even if he is bumped into by an acquaintance, it is difficult to recognize this person as the loyal young man in his eagerness!

The costume stopped, Xingyan didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly tiptoed to run straight to the building where Na Ruiniang lived.

It's almost midnight now, the night is thick and deep, Rao is this flower moon building, and most people are already in a gentle dreamland. In addition, this autumn night is as cold as water, and no one is still hanging outside;

............

.........

......

- What the young man who secretly rejoiced in his heart did not realize was that behind the figure that he tried his best to sneak in, there was a black shadow that fell silently!

I don't know why, the tail follower, seeing such a strange behavior of Xingyan, didn't scream, just followed him without saying a word.

When Xingyan walked lightly to the corridor in front of Rui Niang's room, carefully attached to the lattice window, and listened carefully to the situation in the house, the black shadow behind him suddenly began to dissipate and hide, as if it gradually melted into the vast night, and there was no trace of it anymore!

Precisely:

The golden wind has not moved the cicada, and the impermanence is always unknown!

Not to mention the strangeness outside the house, besides, inside the house, although it was almost midnight, the people in the room had not yet slept. I saw a red candle burning on the carved table in the house. That Hu Shi'an Hu Gongzi has not rested yet, only in front of the case, holding a small tin wine cup, sipping cup after cup. The fluttering candlelight near him pulled him out of all kinds of bizarre images on the wall.

After a while, I could only smell a low voice from the red silk tent behind the screen:

"Hu Lang...... I think it's already a deep night, why don't you come up and rest sooner?"

Xingyan could understand that it was Sister Na Ruiniang, who was gently urging her lover to rest early.

Hearing the invitation of the beautiful woman, this Hu Shi'an Hu Gongzi only responded lightly:

"You sleep first. This autumn night is cold, so I drink a few more cups to keep warm. ”

- Don't look at his answer like this, in fact, in his heart, he is really bored, and he is borrowing wine there to drown his sorrows.

This guy has been itching recently, so he sprouted the old state in the township, and indulged in the gambling house all day long, lingering and forgetting to return. But he hated bad luck, and in just a few days, he had lost more than forty taels of silver. Those gamblers who usually say that they are kind to themselves, but now they are urging very urgently-this is nothing, although their own bag has been sold out early, but relying on some tricks, the infatuated girl in the room who deceived the solid-eyed infatuated girl in the room is desperate for herself, and she wants to coax out some silver taels from her to pay it back, but it is also convenient.

It's just that I don't know why these days, when this Rui Niang takes the silver, she always feels that it is not as good as usual. Up to now, I still have most of the money I haven't paid back - not to mention being urged by the creditor, it's even more hateful that I have no gambling money now, and I don't even have a chance to turn over, which is really annoying!

Alas, I have to think of another way, so that she can be coaxed into taking out some more silver taels......

was thinking about it in his heart, but he heard the door "creak", as if it was blown open by the wind.

"Hey~ Rui Niang is not virtuous...... Don't even bolt that door before going to bed......"

This guy was a little drunk, ignorant, and didn't care for a while, only complaining in his heart about Rui Niang's negligence.

However, the night wind leaked into the house, blowing the candle flickering on and out—though it was not very strong, but after all, it was cold. Hu Shi'an's mind was much clearer when the wind blew him, so he glanced up at the door, and then prepared to get up and bolt the door.

"Huh?!"

Although his eyes were dizzy, Hu Shi'an suddenly felt that something was wrong-he pressed the figure that was about to stand up, and quickly looked at the door again--it didn't matter, Hu Shi'an's house was suddenly creepy!

- It turned out that in the dark moon shadow field inside the door, there was a person standing quietly, who seemed to be staring at him coldly!

When Hu Shi'an saw this situation at first glance, he immediately woke up most of the wine. This guy was also shrewd, and immediately knew that the person who came was not good, and he picked up the wine glass in his hand and was about to smash it at the black shadow - but he felt a sudden cold on his neck, and he was already tightly pressed against something.

It turned out that the uninvited guest was faster than lightning, and before he could make a move on his glass, he had already put his sword on the neck of this guy!

-- Seeing that he was worried about his life, Hu Shi'an's limbs were stiff and he didn't dare to move a little. Inside, it seemed to be quiet again.

It took a long time before he heard the sound of "Cangchang" - Hu Shi'an finally failed to hold the wine cup in his hand and slid it down on the blue brick floor.

The sound of the tin cup falling to the ground finally alarmed Rui Niang. At this time, she also felt that the movement in the room was a little strange, and she couldn't help but call in a trembling voice:

"Hu Lang?"

...... didn't wait for Hu Lang's answer, but heard an unfamiliar word:

"My sword is on your Hu Lang's neck-don't shout!"

"If you shout, kill him with a sword!"

These suppressed words, although the voice was not loud, but the effect was quite outstanding, and Rui Niang immediately understood the situation in the house - these two well-arranged words, which had been planned for a long time, successfully suppressed the unconscious exclamation of the woman when she was frightened.

Although Na Ruiniang was in the warmth, after hearing this, she immediately felt cold all over her body, like falling into the 39 ice cellar!

"No, I don't know...... Big, big, big king visiting late at night, what are you doing?"

Hearing that the thief spoke, it didn't look like he had come to ask for his surname, so Hu Shixin suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. Don't look at him as a dignified man, in fact, he is also a strong outsider. In the past few days, this guy has been troubled by the gambling debt, and he cannot help but be a little suspicious, and when the sword is on the neck, he is so frightened that he almost wets his pants -- he thinks that it is some creditor who does not know the number of roads, and he is impatient to wait, so he sends someone to take his surname!

When the thief spoke, his tone seemed to have room to turn around, and Hu Shi'an's heart that mentioned his throat and eyes was suddenly half put back. Although he was a little stunned when he first spoke, he immediately became sharp again.

At this time, Rui Niang, who was still on the bed, heard her lover say this, and immediately reacted, and hurriedly said:

"If the king has any orders, please do it! Hu Lang and the slave family will do their best to do it--only...... Don't hurt Hu Lang!"

After she finished saying this, she heard a sighing voice. It turned out that Na Rui Niang was putting on her clothes, preparing to get out of bed, and together with Hu Lang, she asked for forgiveness from the thieves who visited at night.

"Don't move, stay where you are!"

It turned out that this so-called "thief" was the young Zhang Xingyan. He saw that it was useless to persuade Rui Niang with good words, so he had to be a wicked person, hoping that Hu Shi'an would eat this scare, so he left by himself, and never came to defraud Na Rui Niang's money again.

Now that he saw that Rui Niang was about to get out of bed, he quickly thickened his throat and said something to stop him - the young man was worried that after meeting Rui Niang, if she recognized her, he really didn't know how to end!

As soon as he heard the thief stop him, Hu Shi'an also hurriedly shouted behind the screen:

"Don't move in bed!

Although his tone was urgent, his voice was still quite low—the cold and oozing feeling on his neck reminded him all the time that his life was still hanging by the balance.

As soon as these words came out, Hu Shi'an seemed to feel that the thief beside him seemed to nod his head - this guy's bones immediately seemed to be lighter, and he was about to continue to flatter him, but he heard that the thief spoke again:

"Even if you know each other - I'm not afraid that you will know, I am the hero who fell on the grass on the lonely mountain of Poyang Lake! I don't want to ask for anything else today, as long as Your Excellency flatters you with more gold and silver, I won't touch you with a single cold hair!"

Hearing the thief's words, the other two people in the room were surprised and delighted--they were surprised that they didn't know when they had provoked such a brave bandit on Dagu Mountain; they were glad that this thief was only for money, and his surname should be worry-free--Hu Shi'an and Rui Niang's hearts, which were both hanging in the air, were immediately put back in their original places.

It's just that after chewing the thief's words, Hu Shi'an said with a bitter face:

"This, don't hide it from the king, the villain really doesn't have any gold and silver at hand now......"

"Huh?!" It seems that the thief was quite angry when he heard this, and Hu Shi'an immediately felt that the chill on his neck seemed to be a little more vigorous.

"Rui Niang, how much gold and silver do you have there, hurry up and take it out and give it to the king!" This Hu Shi'an was also clever, and immediately pulled his neck and shouted to Rui Niang.

After this guy finished saying this, he felt that it was not enough insurance, so he quickly added another sentence:

"Don't be afraid, I will pay you back in the future!"

"Be quiet!" exclaimed.

Hu Shi'an was shocked when he heard this, and immediately fell silent, and at the same time squeezed out a flattering smile on his face-I don't know if the thief next to him saw it.

"Don't be angry, don't be angry, as long as you don't hurt my family's Hu Lang, you can do whatever you want as a concubine -- I'll get out of bed and get the silver taels." After speaking, when he heard the movement, he seemed to put on his clothes and get out of bed.

"Stay!"

Wake up and stop him - you know, he's not here to rob tonight.

“......？？？”

Hearing that the thief stopped them, the two of them were surprised, and they didn't know what kind of medicine the thief was selling in his gourd. Hu Shi'an's heart was even more furious, and he was suspicious that the thief didn't know how to torture him - this guy didn't ask for money, could it be ...... In the end, the creditor sent him to take his surname?!

Just when Hu Shi'an was suspicious and his legs were weak, he heard the thief speak again:

"Don't come to coax me, you guy! I've been paying attention to you for a long time, and you've been making generous moves, and you've often been in that happy place, and now you're crying with me......?

"No, no, no, no, the king!" Hu Shi'an heard that Xingyan's words were not good, and he quickly swore an oath:

"Actually......" was about to say the reason, but suddenly he seemed to stutter a little, and he couldn't say anything for a long time.

Xingyan was trying to force him to tell the truth, and at this moment, seeing that he wanted to speak and stopped, but only rubbed there, he increased his strength a little, and shouted in his mouth:

"Hugh be hidden, and tell the truth quickly—I have been paying attention to you for a long time, if there is half a lie...... Hmph, a sword slashed!"

Hearing that the thief was ruthless, Hu Shi'an hurriedly poured beans into a bamboo tube, and told him in detail about the recent debt he owed a butt of gambling debts - when he confessed, and added the awakening words to intimidate him at the right time, this guy had no choice but to briefly talk about the thing that coaxed Rui Niang to take out her own money as a gambling book, but lost all her money.

Xingyan listened and deliberately said loudly:

"Look at you, this guy looks like a human, but I can't imagine that you don't grow up like this, and you actually use women's money to mess around!"

At this time, Rui Niang, who was in the tent, also heard her Hu Lang's words clearly-in an instant, Rui Niang only felt that her eyes were a little black, and her heart sank deeper......

It turned out that when Hu Shi'an coaxed her to make money, he only told her that it was to redeem her body and make some money, and asked Rui Niang to take some silver money out to make a book, so as to earn more silver and redeem herself for her in the morning - and pay the fees in Huayue Building......

............

"Hu Lang ......" After a short while, a woman's sad voice came from behind the screen.

"Hmph!" Although he knew the answer, he couldn't help but be angry when he heard this guy admit it himself, so he took the sword and rubbed it twice on the neck of this "Hu Lang".

Hu Shi'an suddenly felt something strange on his neck, and suddenly his heart was horrified, and he was about to kneel down and beg for mercy, but he heard the thief next to him say again:

"Alas, Lao Tzu has always acted uprightly, but he disdains to take that woman's money, what should I do?"

Xingyan said this precisely to provoke and beat up this fortunate man who coaxed Sister Rui, so that he would retreat and disappear. You must know that the girls in this Huayue Building are all sold to Aunt Xia, the old bustard, and most of the funds they get must be handed over to the building. In this situation, it is not easy for this woman to save some private money. Even if you have a red card like Rui Niang, it is really difficult to save a decent amount of money privately - this Raozhou is not a big province, and the benefactors who come here for recreation do not give much reward, and often they can only save some money in the rouge gouache regular money. All the money saved by hard work is to be used for retirement after death - this woman's own money, but can she be coaxed so casually?!

He heard the good man on the big lonely mountain next to him say this, and when he rolled his eyes, he said shyly:

"The king, don't be annoyed, why don't you listen to Xiao's words, why don't you just ...... like this"
