Leaving Ziyu with all kinds of snacks, Ah Po shook his head helplessly as he touched the only copper plate left in his arms.

Before leaving, Qiu Lingfu went to Ruyi Tower, and while Xu Bichuan was away, he tricked Lianzhi into asking for some money.

Qiu Lingfu was not in a hurry, as if he was out for a tour.

"Aren't you going to ask me where I'm going?" Ah Po saw that he was holding the rein with his oily hands, and the horse was staggering.

Qiu Lingfu yawned, and said lazily: "Didn't you go to your old uncle Xu and exchange the news you've been begging for these few months with your brothers? I'll go and listen."

Taking advantage of Qiu Lingfu's drowsiness and lowered his guard, Ah Po had to watch him during the day.The half-length hair that used to be neat was now messy and frizzy, as if it had been pulled up at will.

Thinking about this long hair, Qiu Xiaoshi once helped manage it.

"What do you see me doing?" Qiu Lingfu was vigilant, as if he was completely awake from the gaze, "Don't look at me without my order."

Ah Po turned his gaze back to the road ahead: "Aren't you sleepy?"

"I'm sleepy." Qiu Lingfu yawned again, "Where are you staying tonight? Is it still far away?"

"I've been in Ziyu for too long. I'm afraid I won't be able to go to any good place tonight. Only the dilapidated restaurant is waiting for you and me." A Po squinted at Qiu Lingfu and said slowly, "But if you want to rest now, there is a way .”

"Is there a carriage changing post near here? I want to change to a comfortable carriage, and I want to lie in it." Qiu Lingfu thought about Benmei, with Ah Po doing things for him, why would he have to brave the sun for the journey.

"Why waste it like this." As soon as he finished speaking, Qiu Lingfu heard the dismounted horse neigh, and Ah Po had already left his horse and flew behind him.

I was pushed forward and leaned forward, but a pair of arms happened to wrap around my body.

The voice is close to my ear: "Go to sleep..."

Before Qiu Lingfu could react to the offense, he was acupunctured again.His eyes darkened, and he immediately fell into Ah Po's arms obediently and obediently.

Ah Po lowered his head and sniffed Qiu Lingfu's hair, then hugged the guy a little more firmly so that Qiu Lingfu could lie comfortably in his arms.

If you let him wake up, I'm afraid he would rather hang on to death than close his eyes to rest, so that he can really sleep peacefully in his arms, and this is probably the only way.

The rein of the other horse was in his hand, leading him like this, but the road was getting slower and slower.

Arriving at an unknown town that night, Qiu Lingfu pawned a piece of jade without saying a word, and exchanged it for a carriage without the slightest bit of distress.

Ah Po packed up the carriage, sat in front of the carriage and wrapped a few circles of cloth around his injured hand - if he had known that he would have stayed far away before this guy woke up, it would have been better than being slashed by that soft sword Wound.

After the wound was healed, Lan Yanyan went into the car and asked: "Where is the master going to live, at least tell Ah Po, lest you don't say it, and you are not satisfied that Ah Po made the decision without authorization."

It makes no sense!Today he is good at making decisions, has he ever had a chance to speak...

Qiu Lingfu was in the car, eating in the dark. Hearing these words, he turned his head: "As long as the master is dissatisfied, the servant should be punished, don't you think so?"

Hearing this, he wanted to take advantage again, but Ah Po pretended not to understand, but his tone was like that of a real servant, respectfully: "What is the punishment? Ah Po is the first time to be a real person, and someone who offended my master, I also ask the master to forgive me."

"Cunning..." Qiu Lingfu cursed secretly, no matter how obedient Ah Po's tone was, it seemed to Qiu Lingfu that he was playing tricks on himself.Qiu Lingfu wanted to teach him a serious lesson, but for a moment he felt that no punishment would be too difficult for this person.

"Let's find a place to rest now." At the end of the day, Qiu Lingfu felt uncomfortable all over, and really wanted to take a good wash, "I want the best inn in this town."

I have lived in that dilapidated West Alley for a long time, so I should enjoy it.

At least the smell of a beggar must be washed away.

Ah Po asked the people on the side of the road, only to find out that this town is remote, and the best inn is actually not easy to live in.

"The Xiangxiang Tower was the best inn ever. You also know what happened in the past few months. Who wants to have anything to do with the thief's den, Xiangshui Palace? It has been empty for the past few months... I suggest you go to the Fuyuan Inn, although the food there is not good, but there is still hot water for bathing."

If there is a Xiang character in this name, it must be related to Xiangshui Palace.

A Po thought for a moment, then knocked on the carriage: "Where does the master want to go?"

There was a muffled sound of chewing and chewing: "They said they were going to the best place. If you can't remember what the master said, you have to be punished again."

The Xiangxiang Building is located in the middle of the busiest market in the town.

Thinking about it, there used to be people coming and going, making money.But now it seems to be isolated from the hustle and bustle, a building is dimly lit and deserted.

This is not the latest moment, the surrounding brothels and teahouses are still overcrowded, and the shopkeeper here has started to tidy up inside and out, as if it is about to close.

"Do you still want to go?" Ah Po asked the people in the carriage, the reason why Xiangxiang Building was so deserted was inextricably linked to the people in the carriage, so Ah Po felt that it was necessary to ask more questions.

"Go, of course." Qiu Lingfu was talking, but his eyes were pulled away by the soft voice.

Stretching his head out of the window, he was about to look at the bustling brothel when the carriage started to move, making him unable to look any further.

"Then it's settled." Ah Po said.

It was supposed to be resting, but there was a guest in the Xiangxiang Building, and the shopkeeper was surprised and pleasantly surprised.

Ah Po fixed the carriage, and let Qiu Lingfu, who kept complaining, go upstairs to rest first.

But when he came in, he saw that Qiu Lingfu was still there, sitting beside the luggage, bored, as if waiting.

But seeing himself, Qiu Lingfu looked disgusted again, from his eyelashes to the corners of his mouth, he became proud, and his arrogance was so arrogant that his teeth itch.

Ah Po narrowed his eyes, but only said to the shopkeeper: "The shopkeeper, one room."

"Two rooms." Qiu Lingfu's voice came from behind.

Hearing the voice behind him, Ah Po replied quickly, but only smiled, facing the man, he said in a low voice, "I don't have enough money on me, I usually go on my way, as long as I have a place, I can sleep. The house is already a good place to sleep... Master doesn't plan to save this money?"

"No plan, asking me to share a room with you is worse than having no money." Qiu Lingfu was blunt.

Ah Po could only shake his head, and said to the shopkeeper: "Then there are two rooms."

It is already strange that these two people are willing to live here, and the conversation between the two people can't help but secretly speculate.Not to mention the so-called servant, his face is stained with ashes like a beggar, but he is tall and straight, even though he is dressed plainly, he is still eye-catching.

It's really strange.

The shopkeeper looked at the two of them seriously with those small eyes, but he didn't dare to look at them too much. This business came with great difficulty, so don't let him run away suspiciously.

He ordered people to take the two people to the house, and said to the two: "The hot water is ready, and I will send it to the two of you later."

Ah Po was about to go upstairs, when he heard this, he stopped: "Is there anyone else in this inn besides your shopkeeper and the handyman?"

So careful!

The shopkeeper secretly sighed, then subconsciously turned his head to the west of the second floor, and said to Apo in a low voice: "Our boss sent someone to liquidate it, and we still live here... This Xiangxiang Building is here I can't stand it anymore."

Then he sighed heavily again.

Ah Po raised his head and looked to the west, there was indeed a bright room there.The window divided the dim candlelight, and surrounded by two dark empty rooms on the left and right, it turned out to be as weird as a haunted house.

"What are you looking at?" Qiu Lingfu only glanced at the room, then stopped, and said casually, "If the people in this room want to kill me for revenge, you have to stand in front of the knife."

He dropped this sentence to Ah Po, then ignored him, and walked upstairs quickly on the stairs.

Qiu Lingfu's ignorance and sensitivity to Jianghu affairs have always reached the extreme at a certain balance point in contradiction.

That night, as expected, an uninvited visitor came to visit.

When the drug-filled tube punctured the window paper, the outsiders found that the ignited drug came out from their side ridiculously.

Just as he was wondering, the tube was pulled out from inside.

The people outside the house were startled, but they thought that the matter had been exposed, so it would be better to fight head-on... But when they were about to enter the house, they hesitated for a while because of their lack of martial arts skills.

"Aren't you coming to kill me?" Qiu Lingfu had already opened the window, lying on it and looking at the man, "People in Xiangshui Palace are so stupid."

The man froze for a moment, turned into anger from embarrassment, took out a dagger from his arms, and stabbed Qiu Lingfu with all his strength.

Qiu Lingfu just took a step back, and the man fell in through the window, still hitting his head on the ground, his eyes full of gold stars.

"Bang!" The door was kicked open, and the shopkeeper and the handyman rushed in without hesitation, holding a long knife and sharp sword!

Qiu Lingfu drew out his soft sword, and was about to swing it towards the nearest shopkeeper, when there was a clanging sound from the soft sword, his hand was numb from the shock, and Ah Po was already approaching him.

Immediately there were a few more sounds of stones piercing the air, and the weapons in the hands of the three visitors were knocked into the air. Ah Po turned around and clamped Qiu Lingfu's sword-holding wrist.

"Get out!" Qiu Lingfu said fiercely, with murderous intent in his eyes, he was about to break free the next moment.

"They don't deserve death." As he said that, Ah Po turned his head and said to the three people, "Xiangshui Palace's reputation has been ruined, there is no need to do anything in the inn to worsen your business."

The shopkeeper and the handyman didn't react when they heard this, and even thought it made sense, so they just quietly looked at the fallen man.

But the man said angrily: "It's hypocritical! If it wasn't for you, how could Palace Master Ding die?"

"Who killed Palace Master Ding? Except for the murderer and those disciples of Xiangshui Palace who died, I am afraid that no one will witness it. What you should suspect is the person who made a judgment on his own." Ah Po immediately solved it.

"This..." The man didn't seem to be an impulsive person, he hesitated for a while, but he also listened to the words.

Ah Po saw the movement of the man holding the dagger, and also saw the shopkeeper and handyman's respect for this inexperienced man, so he had a guess in his heart.

"Ding Huizhang, the master chef of Xiangshui Palace, the hand holding the kitchen knife is better not to hold the dagger." A Po said, and then said to the other two, "Please find out who the enemy is, and come to beg for life." .”

As he said that, he kicked the sword under his feet against the shopkeeper and the handyman, and the two knew that they were not rivals, so they helped the man who fell to the ground in a desperate manner.

The angry man shooed away the supporting hand, but after glancing at A Po and Qiu Lingfu, he could only pick up the dagger, and left the room with his sleeves thrown.

"Hmm!" Before Ah Po could close the door and window, his legs hurt and he fell to the ground.

Looking back, Qiu Lingfu kicked himself, his face was calm as if he was teasing him indifferently, but his anger was still evident in his eyes.
