Chapter II

The goose feather snow fell on Shen Xingsoul's body, and the girl in front of him had a serious face, frowning, staring at the figure at the entrance of the alley.

Shen Xingsoul's heart was incomprehensible, a little scared, but more confused.

He naturally knows this Steward Liu, who is the great butler of the Purple Mansion, and can also be regarded as a high and powerful person in the Purple Mansion, except for a limited number of people such as the head of the family, he has the highest status.

But he really didn't understand why he said he wanted to kill himself. Although it was a bit unreasonable for me to ask Ziluan out so late, this was not the first time. Even a few times before, when I was late to play with Ziluan, when I sent her back, I met this Steward Liu.

Shen Xingsoul stepped out from behind Ziluan. He inhaled hard, and asked in a trembling voice, "Why?"

"Why? Didn't my young lady tell you?"

The housekeeper surnamed Liu dusted off the falling snow on his body and looked at Shen Xingsoul with contempt.

"Ziluan?" Shen Xingsoul turned around abruptly, staring at Ziluan's eyes, trying to find the answer.

"Brother Star Soul, I'm ...... , I'm sorry,"

Seeing Ziluan lower his head, Shen Xingsoul understood that what Steward Liu said was right, but what was the matter, he had to put himself to death.

"Even if you want to kill me, tell me what the hell is it for?"

"It turns out that the young lady didn't tell you anything, no wonder you are still having so much fun. ”

"Shen Xingsoul, originally your Shen family had a big business, and the old grandfather of the Shen family was the number one master of my Great Xia Dynasty, and my Zi family and your Shen family were married, so naturally what we valued was the interests behind this. ”

"Three years ago, however, you should have known better than I did what was going on. Your old grandfather couldn't come out of retreat, and the eight great families joined forces to besiege your Shen family, although in the end the old grandfather of the Shen family tried his best to turn the tide, but unfortunately he was forced out of the customs at the most critical moment of cultivation, and he endured serious injuries to fight the eight masters. However, the first in the world is the first in the world, even in that situation, he still attacked the eight major families and killed them without leaving a piece of armor. ”

"The war is over, and your Shen family's grandfather has disappeared. Some people have rumored that your Shen family's grandfather has been sitting on the death pass, hanging his last breath, and he will never leave the pass until the family lives and dies. ”

"But in the past three years, your Shen family's family industry has not survived, and the entire Shen family is even more panicked, I don't know which day it may be wiped out, if it weren't for the rumors in the world that your grandfather is still alive, your Shen family would have been wiped out a long time ago. ”

"Now you still don't know what you can do, and if you want to marry me the pearl of the purple family, you don't weigh whether it is enough. ”

"Speaking of your Shen family, I want to ask how your father has been cultivating recently, I don't know if almost twenty years have passed, has he grown a little, or is he as wasted as ever!"

The housekeeper surnamed Liu looked at Shen Xingsoul's angry eyes but didn't care at all, and continued

"Now that my Zi family is preparing to marry the Xu family, the son of the Xu family is beyond your reach regardless of his cultivation, you still have to give up!"

"But I can't let the people of the rivers and lakes say that my Zi family has no rules, and I am engaged to your Shen family but I am treacherous, so the only way is to kill you, the little master of the Shen family, now do you understand why you want to die?"

Shen Xing clenched his fists tightly, although life and death were at stake at this moment, it was not as painful as the pain in his heart, he just looked at Ziluan like this, waiting for her to give him an answer.

"Brother Star Soul, although Ziluan likes to mess around in front of you, don't you really understand?

"Actually, I had already thought about it, if my father forced me to marry into the Xu family, I would die in front of him, and today I have been reluctant to go home, I know that this time we say goodbye, we may never see each other again. ”

"The Shen family is no longer the Shen family of the past, and I have also thought about leaving here with you, but where can we go, they will definitely kill you when the time comes. ”

"It's different now, with me, he won't dare to kill you!"

After speaking, Ziluan took out a dagger and put it around his neck.

"Steward Liu, if I die and am forced to death by you, do you think my father and the Xu family will let you go?"

"Ziluan, don't mess around! Hurry up and put the knife down, I can not leave today, but I can hurt you. ”

Shen Xingsoul stretched out his hand to grab the dagger in Ziluan's hand, but saw Ziluan suddenly exert force, and a wisp of bright red on his snow-white neck slowly flowed down.

"Miss, you have to think clearly, is it worth it, you are still young, and you have a great future in the future, what is he worthy of you?"

"Steward Liu, this kind of thing is not worth it, only whether you are willing or not, now, I am willing to use my life to save Brother Star Soul. ”

Shen Xingsoul knew that the current Ziluan was not at all calm in his heart, and he was even very scared in his heart, he looked at Ziluan's bloodless face, although he smiled, he couldn't hide the panic in his eyes.

"Brother Star Soul, if you don't leave, do you want to see me die here?"

Ziluan's tone was very flat, it seemed that there were just two people playing now, there was no parting between life and death, and there was no goodbye.

Shen Xing was reluctant to leave, but he couldn't help but leave, and every step he took when he turned around seemed to be extremely heavy, "Wait for me, Ziluan, I will come back!"

He didn't dare to look back, he didn't dare to look at Ziluan again, he knew how contradictory he was in his heart now, and he knew the indecisiveness in his character.

"Brother Star Soul, I'm waiting for you, I won't marry anyone!"

The wind blew Ziluan's words into Shen Xingsoul's ears, his body trembled, he stopped, and the next moment he rushed out again.

There were still lamps in the small inn, and Shen Xingsoul knew that these were the two uncles who were not worried about themselves, and they were still waiting for him to come back.

Pushing open the door of the inn and rushing to the second floor in a few steps, he knew that he couldn't stay in Lin'an City now, and with the power of the Zi family, it would definitely be easy to get rid of his group in Lin'an City.

Rushing into the room and dragging his two uncles out as they walked out, explaining what had happened.

The faces of the two people changed greatly, and they didn't care about scolding the Zi family for their treachery, and the three of them rode three fast horses and rushed out of Lin'an City directly, galloping towards the Shen family.

There will be no curfew in Lin'an City, and the city gates will not be closed at night, there are masters here, and there will definitely not be any unsightly little thieves who are boring.

Out of Lin'an City, the three of them quickly whipped up and walked south, although the Shen family is no longer in the past, as long as they don't see the body of the Shen family's grandfather for a day, no one dares to destroy the Shen family.

As long as the three of them hurry up, there will be no accident, in two days, there will be absolutely no problem in returning to the Shen family, even the Zi family will not dare to blatantly go to the Shen family to kill people.

As long as people don't die, there is still the possibility of retrieving what was lost.

Shen Xingsoul felt pain in his heart, but he didn't care about hypocrisy, although he was indecisive, he also knew the priorities.

As long as he doesn't die for a day, Ziluan and his marriage contract is there, and he doesn't have to marry into the Xu family.

However, the three of them still underestimated the ability of the Zi family, or how determined the Zi family was to kill Shen Xingsoul.

In the night, a group of men in black rode fast horses and closely followed the trail of the three people.

This group of people is a master cultivated by the Zi family, and the horses they ride are also carefully selected, and their speed is naturally much faster than the horses of Shen Xingsoul's three people.

At first, he was thrown away for a distance, but now he saw that the distance was getting closer, and it seemed that he could faintly hear the sound of horses' hooves.
