51. It's hard to say
The goshawk was stunned when he heard this, and asked, "You want to go too?"
Xiang'er pushed him and said, "You belittle you like this, what kind of master do you have? ”
Goshawk smiled: "Last time in the Hanging Neck Cliff, you almost fell without a shadow, didn't I drag you up? Besides, when you fell into the water in Luhu, Lao Tzu went into the water to rescue you and let go of the old man Pu and his gang."
Xiang'er was angry when she heard this, and said: "I was young and ignorant at that time, so you have to think about it a little, you are a calculating person, remember what to do so clearly? ”
The goshawk disciples have a benefit, although they don't have any masters, but they bring the apprentices to the fire pit, and they are unscrupulous, and they are exactly the idea of "jade is not cut into a weapon", seeing that Xiang'er is not afraid of hardships and dangers, but rejoices, and says: "I can't compete with you, so let's go." ”
Xiang'er said happily: "Master is the best, I know that Master loves me." Jumped into the arms of the goshawk and kissed him lightly on the cheek.
Goshawk shouted: "You are quite old now, and in two years, you will have to get married, it is very inappropriate to be so intimate to Master." ”
Xiang'er smiled: "I don't want to get married, I want to follow the master for the rest of my life." ”
The goshawk glared at him and said, "What does Lao Tzu want you to do with such a burden?" Lao Tzu is going to drink flower wine, do you also follow?"
Xiang'er knows the bottom line of the goshawk, knows that he is as cold as Xuebing, and his mouth is loud, but in fact, he has to guard himself more than monks and nuns, and said with a smile: "That's just right, take the apprentice to that place to open your eyes, and you will know the way in the future." ”
The two talked and laughed, and they didn't walk slowly. The goshawk followed the breath of Gu and Tuo, and his mind spread out, investigating whether there were ambushes everywhere, but fortunately, the road was peaceful and there were no spies.
After walking for a long time, I saw a huge house in the forest, with green pines supporting white walls, golden flowers hanging red beams, about three stories high, and the two people breathed into the house. As a result of this disorder, it can be seen that there are quite a few people in it.
The two crouched in the grass in the distance, and the goshawk asked, "Xiang'er, I'll test you, how should we do such an enemy village?"
Xiang'er groaned: "If Brother Xiaotian sends someone to block the exit and rushes in by himself, none of the enemies can escape." Be your Monkey Master. Then let's be careful, take advantage of the darkness, sneak in, and secretly arrest people. ”
Goshawk said angrily: "Where is Lao Tzu not as good as Yan Ran? His kung fu was taught by Lao Tzu." If it weren't for Lao Tzu covering him. He doesn't even know how to drink milk. ”
Xiang'er couldn't help but laugh, twisted his arm, and didn't say much.
Goshawk said, "But you're pretty good at this trick of infiltration. Let's wait until late at night before we do it. ”
Xiang'er smiled: "You're really scared." ”
Goshawk said: "Lao Tzu is really afraid, what I'm afraid of is that you little girl is not good." ”
Xiang'er snorted. slapped and bit on the goshawk's head, the goshawk endured it patiently and did not squeak, Xiang'er made a fuss for a while, and suddenly sneered.
Goshawk asked, "What are you laughing at?"
Xiang'er said: "Master, I often wonder, is it a little too lawless for me to treat you like this?"
The goshawk said twice, "Do you know this?"
Xiang'er was suddenly extremely moved, and couldn't help but reveal her true feelings, and said, "Master, I have a few words of gratitude, but I have never been able to say them. You actually treat me like a mountain and reinvent me, and I can't think of a better master than you. ”
Goshawk's heart was sour, and he said: "What kind of good master am I? Every time I take you to the sword mountain and the sea of fire, you are such a good girl, and I teach you like a bare-eyed hero, I am actually quite sorry for you." ”
Xiang'er hurriedly said: "No, no, Master is the best person in the world for me, I actually know it very well in my heart." I'm naughty by nature, I like to make trouble, and every time I get into trouble, it's you, Master, who arrive in time to save my life. It is said that the grace of saving lives cannot be repaid, you have saved me ten or twenty times, but you have never asked me to thank you for your kindness. I owe Master so much to you that I can't pay it off in my life. ”
The goshawk was overjoyed when he heard this, and his blood was surging, and he said: "Little apprentice, you and I have long been relatives, so you regard yourself as my daughter, and my father is good to his daughter, do you want to ask for anything in return?"
Xiang'er cried and said, "Master, Master, in the future, the apprentice will treat you well, and I will never trouble you again." ”
Goshawk said softly: "Silly girl, you just do your own thing and act recklessly, the master can only be happy in his eyes." ”
Xiang'er hugged the goshawk and said, "Master, you are so good to me, you spoil me too much, I will learn bad in the future, so what should I do?"
Goshawk smiled: "Anyway, your master is not a good thing, if it is bad, it will be bad, who dares to embarrass you, and see if the master will not clean him up?"
Xiang'er let out an "um", kissed the goshawk the forehead, and stayed quietly in his arms.
The goshawk looked at Xiang'er, and guilt appeared in his heart, like a soul seeking his life, biting his conscience.
He already knew why he wanted to treat Xiang'er well, and he wanted to use this little girl to find a way to deal with the master of Shanhaimen, who - whether his name was Gray Yan, Chang Yan or Chang Xuan - attached great importance to Xiang'er, took good care of her, and did not hesitate to take great pains to tie Xiang'er to his side. As long as you watch the person's actions and find out the secrets, the flies will be sure to kill the person.
But what about Xiang'er? Xiang'er is innocent. Although the purpose of the gray inflammation is still unknown at the moment, if the fly misses a little, Xiang'er is afraid that her life will not be saved.
The goshawk secretly scolded himself for being despicable and shameless, but he was like a duckweed, falling into the whirlpool of the rapids, unable to resist at all. The only thing he could do was to love Xiang'er more, so that she would be happier, happier, and make up for his mistakes a little, and that's all.
Looking at the coquettish girl in his arms, he suddenly asked, "Xiang'er, you often stay with that Chang Xuan, don't you?"
Xiang'er blushed, turned her head, seemed quite shy, and asked, "Yes, what's wrong?"
Goshawk asked, "What do you say when you're together?"
Xiang'er thought for a while and said, "I often tell him about you. He also talked about his childhood, he read a lot of books, was proficient in medical skills, and was very knowledgeable. ”
Goshawk asked, "What happened when he was a child?"
Xiang'er smiled: "It's not unusual, but he has stayed with his siblings since he was a child, his father has long since died, his father is a medical officer in the palace, and Brother Chang Yan inherited his father's business and stayed, after Brother Chang Yan died." Chang Xuan's brother also entered the palace. Although his status is not high, everyone respects his two brothers. Thinking of Chang Yan, who died unexpectedly, I can't help but feel very sad.
Goshawk was impulsive and blurted out, "Do you like him?"
Xiang'er's face flushed, and she said angrily: "What do you like or dislike, what are you doing with so much?"
Goshawk stared into her eyes, saw her eyes flickering, uneasy, and asked word by word, "You like Chang Xuan." Isn't that right?"
Xiang'er pursed her lips and said, "I look so ugly, far inferior to Sister Dongyao, even if I like Chang Xuan." What can be?"
Goshawk asked, "What does Chang Xuan think?" Is he better for you, or is he better for the county lord?"
Xiang'er's heart was pounding, and after the goshawk asked, she remembered many details, only to feel that Chang Xuan was indeed kinder to herself than to Dong Yao. He talks to himself, always with enthusiasm and gushing. And what about Dong Yao? But he only said so much.
Goshawk's brows gradually furrowed, and he asked, "He's much nicer to you, isn't he?
Xiang'er was in a hurry, got out of the goshawk's arms, and said, "Master, how can you say that about Brother Chang Xuan? Don't say that he may not necessarily have any true feelings for me, even if he really likes me, I am very happy." ”
The goshawk sighed, confused, and said no more.
The two were silent for a long time, and Xiang'er asked, "Master, are you angry with me?"
The goshawk shook his head, looked at the sky, and said, "It's not too early, let's do it now." ”
Xiang'er breathed a sigh of relief, shook her head, calmed her thoughts, followed the goshawk around the mansion, and came to the rear, only to see a person leaning against the wall, holding a crossbow. The goshawk quietly hid it, and silently hit the man's acupoint. Xiang'er thought to herself: "Master's sneaky steps are really good, and they are much better than me." ”
Without delay, the two climbed over the wall and entered the inner courtyard, where they saw bits and pieces everywhere, and two or three people patrolling back and forth. Xiang'er and the goshawk rushed out separately, around the back, Xiang'er smashed the person unconscious, and the goshawk knocked the two down, the method of the greedy wolf's ecstasy shadow was extremely secretive. Although the martial arts of these people are not mediocre, but the two of them sneaked in, and they have no power to fight back.
Goshawk thought to himself: "This Zhonghe will also be a fellow anti-Yuan fellow, I help the Tartars to fight against them, there are always some people who can't stand them, as long as I find the people of the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall, I will make some noise, eye-catching, and then take Xiang'er away away, I must not let the Tartars catch them." ”
Suddenly, Xiang'er flashed over and said in a low voice: "Master, there is a house in the backyard, which seems to be a little strange. ”
The goshawk listened to her solemnity, and followed her past to take a look, and saw a hut with the wooden door closed, and there was no movement in it, but when he listened carefully, there was the sound of flies flying. The goshawk approached and smelled a rancid smell as he boarded. He held his breath and pushed the door, but he didn't expect the wooden door to open on its own.
The two of them looked into the door, and by the moonlight, they saw that the ground was full of corpses, and the inside and outside were already full of maggots and rot, among them were men and women, old and young, the women had been stripped of their clothes and were obviously humiliated, and the men were covered in bruises and died in a miserable state.
Xiang'er's face was so frightened that she almost cried out, and the goshawk looked at the pile of corpses quietly, as if turning into a statue.
Xiang'er said in a trembling voice: "These people are all civilians, and it seems that they don't know much martial arts. She paused, and then said, "It was the people of the Neutralization Society who seized their house and killed all these people, and they were so ruthless." ”
The goshawk turned around and walked out of the house, and Xiang'er immediately followed out, and was about to ask, when he saw the goshawk walk to the person who had fallen down before, and slashed his neck with a sword, and the man's head was crooked, and he died on the spot.
The goshawk said: "Xiang'er, don't leave any mouths alive, kill them all." The tone was flat, as if this statement was natural and logical.
Xiang'er's body trembled, but she felt a burst of joy for no reason, and said with a smile: "Yes, Master." (To be continued.) )
