storyteller

In the evening, dusk spreads over the flowers and leaves, surrounded by mountains, half of the flowers and leaves are covered by the shadow of the mountains, and half of them are covered with golden warm light.

The misty cooking smoke rises curlingly.

There were many people in the kitchen, busy and busy. A disciple of Hua Yuye was holding a food plate with a pair of delicate hands. There was hot bone broth on the plate. nervous.

If you accidentally spill it, it will hurt.

"Look, Hanyan, this little girl was born so pitiful, and you still let people carry such hot things."

The people in the house were busy in and out of the densely packed kitchen, but outside, Qiu Lingfu was pestering Han Yan, looking like a young man who was just doing nothing.

Not to mention that when people are in a hurry, they don't like this kind of sneaky people the most. There have been accidents in this Huachaohui, and many of Huayuye's disciples tend to have something to do with Qiu Lingfu.

Seeing Qiu Lingfu at this time, can he still give Qiu Lingfu a good look?

The little disciple listened to Qiu Lingfu's words, although he had a caring intention in them, but she misinterpreted them as flirting. He glanced at the handsome Qiu Lingfu, and then quickened his pace and walked away.

Hanyan was quite happy watching, and said in a low voice: "Hua Yuye's disciples hate you, are you here just to scold me?"

"Shen Xiaoru woke up, your head asked me to ask Ah Que to ask for an extra bone broth to send to Yuhualou, hey - Ah Que, what are you holding in your hand? Is it bone broth?"

This "A Que" caused many people around to cast dissatisfied glances at this place again.

... This person is really shameless, calling Miss A Que by her name, as if she is so intimate!

"No, no bone soup looks like this." Ah Que also heard Qiu Lingfu's words just now, so he said to the little disciple who had just walked over, "Yun Qiao, I will change one with you, first give the steamed fish to Xiangshui Send it to the palace, give me this bone broth, the head is short of one."

The cowardly little disciple over there heard the order of the senior sister, turned around and said: "Okay, okay."

The two were about to exchange things in their hands, but Qiu Lingfu said, "Ah Que, you steamed fish, I just saw that someone gave it to Xiangshui Palace, are you uneasy and kind, and want sister Yunqiao to play with you?" Playing with that old guy, Palace Master Ding?"

Ah Que ignored him, but asked Han Yan: "Has this steamed fish been delivered yet?"

Qiu Lingfu winked at Hanyan.

Hanyan thought that Qiu Lingfu was teasing Ah Que, and the two had a good relationship, but she also helped out, "It seems so."

The hand that was about to exchange food plates with Yun Qiao was withdrawn, Ah Que could only say: "Yun Qiao, you send the soup to Yuhualou first, and I will change a dish to Xiangshui Palace."

"Hey, I'll send the bone soup. My heart will hurt if I burn the beauty's hand." Qiu Lingfu frowned, as if it really happened.

The little disciple named Yun Qiao was full of embarrassment. He glanced at A Que and Han Yan, but he didn't want to accept Qiu Lingfu's love. He looked down at the ground: "No, it's better for Yun Qiao to send it to Yuhualou."

As he said that, he insisted on carrying the bone soup to Yuhualou.

"The girls of Hua Yuye really love me." Qiu Lingfu put gold on his face, and then said to Ah Que, "A Que, do you give this to Yuhualou as well? How about I help you? "

Ah Que glanced at him, helpless in his eyes, "No need."

Then he walked back to the kitchen and changed the dishes.

Qiu Lingfu murmured to Hanyan: "A Que doesn't like to talk to me anymore in front of outsiders, and he acted really well."

"It seems that I have to act more like..." As she said that, in the dim light, Hanyan suddenly shifted her gaze to Qiu Lingfu's collar, as if she found something.

Qiu Lingfu was made nervous by the sight, and pulled up his collar, "Then I have to go before you act, lest you find an opportunity to roll your eyes at me."

As Qiu Lingfu moved his clothes, he ran away in a hurry, as if fleeing.

Yuhualou, on the round table, the dishes are bright and attractive, and the table is fully filled.

Beside the table, Sun Jinghong, Xu Bichuan, Ah Po, plus Qiu Xiaoshi, Xiao Shiliu, and six people with Bi Bi, the bowls and chopsticks in front of them have not moved, as if they are waiting for someone.

"The young master said to relieve himself, why it took so long." Qiu Xiaoshi couldn't help muttering.

Ah Po's eyes moved slightly, and he glanced at Qiu Xiaoshi, as if he was thinking about something.

"Why don't we all eat first? Qiu Lingfu doesn't mind this kind of etiquette." Xu Bichuan didn't mind.

At this moment, except for one Qiu Xiaoshi who doesn't know how to fight, everyone became vigilant.

A disciple of Hua Yuye, who is not very skilled in martial arts, went to the Yuhua Tower.

Not Ah Que.

Suddenly there was a polite knock on the door, "Master, you, the bone broth you want is here."

Xu Bichuan and Sun Jinghong looked at each other.

Lianbi handed Sun Jinghong a light gauze hat behind him, Sun Jinghong took it and put it on his head, covering up his amazing face.

"Come in."

The door opened, Yun Qiao glanced at the people in the room, then lowered her head timidly.

"Bone soup?" Sun Jinghong looked at the things in her hand and asked.

"Well, it was Miss A Que who said that the head wants an extra bone broth."

"Then why didn't she come and deliver it herself?"

This question was originally a simple question, but in the ears of the little girl who didn't have much contact with the head, she felt that the head was blaming herself.

My heart became nervous, so I said everything, "Yes... It was Young Master Qiu who said that Miss Shen just woke up, and the master wanted to add some bone broth. Miss A Que asked me to put the bone broth first. send it here."

Several people present looked at each other, Yun Qiao saw that the atmosphere was not right, so she lowered her head, not daring to vent her anger.

Sun Jinghong said quickly: "Okay, put the soup away first, thank you for your hard work."

After getting the order, Yun Qiao breathed a sigh of relief, carefully put down the soup, and was about to go out, but Ah Po suddenly called her: "The place where the little girl delivered the food before, was Xiangshui Palace?"

She thought she could leave, but at this moment someone stopped her suddenly, Yun Qiao was startled, she didn't know whether she should answer this question, so she turned her eyes to look at Sun Jinghong quietly.

"Say." Sun Jinghong approved.

After receiving the instructions from the head of the house, Yun Qiao said, "It's Xiangshui Palace."

Ah Po looked serious, nodded, and thanked Miss Yunqiao.

Yun Qiao nodded and went out.

Yun Qiao went out, and within a few steps, she heard a sound of slapping the table, and she didn't know who was inside.

The little girl Yunqiao was very frightened, and she didn't care who the person who patted the table was, so she quickened her pace and walked away.

"What does young master mean?" Qiu Xiaoshi asked curiously seeing Xu Bichuan so angry.

Ah Po stood up, "I'll go find him."

As he said that, he left a table of delicacies and other people who were still confused, jumped up the window nimbly, and plunged into the night.

Bibi Xiao Shiliu also wanted to get up, Xu Bichuan said, "Don't go."

Xiao Shiliu was worried, "Xu Zhuge?"

"There are too many people outside staring at Hua Yuye's movement, just let Ah Po go."

The two looked at each other and sat down.

"Xu Zhuge, do you know what the young master is going to do?"

Xu Bichuan shook his head, and then said angrily, "Hmph, Qiu Lingfu has benefited, relying on his own ability and self-assessment, he won't turn back without a lesson."

"Do you want to teach him a lesson?" Sun Jinghong took off the curtain hat on his head, shook his hand, and remained on the chair beside him.

The two looked at each other, and they both knew that Shen Xiaoru had a strange poison in his body, and the lover of the old ghost disappeared... The other party dared to act so boldly under the eyes of everyone in the world. If Qiu Lingfu was taught a lesson at this time, then It might be a life-threatening lesson.

There are many visitors to Xiangshui Palace, about eight or nine people, and they live in a small guest building with flowers and leaves.

Ah Que carried the lion's head and walked towards the place where Xiangshui Palace lived. Hearing the silence of the building, he felt a little strange in his heart: there are several sects in this place who are neighbors, and they had to keep quiet for fear of disturbing each other. This Xiangshui Palace is alone. Lou, why is the voice so depressing.

The atmosphere was suspiciously quiet.

Alone on the first floor, eating is on the first floor, but the door is tightly closed.

Look again, on the first two floors, which door and window are not tightly closed?

Ah Que snickered in his heart, this Xiangshui Palace's martial arts are a bit inferior, probably because of the incident of Shen Xiaoru's poisoning and the incident of Yanyun Zhuanglie Baixi's disappearance, this Xiangshui Palace must have been frightened.

Just as the food was being delivered to someone, suddenly the ladder leading to the second floor on the side of the building made a sound, as if a stone rolled down from it.

As if someone was hiding in the shadows on this ladder, as if unable to hold back, there was a slight noise.

Ah Que couldn't help being on guard.

What happened to Hua Yuye in the past few days is obvious to all. As Hua Yuye's disciple, he is naturally more sensitive to the abnormalities around him.

A Que looked towards the ladder, and she knew that there was no one on the ladder.

There was a "click", and there was another sound of stones rolling on the ground.

It is the second floor.

Ah Que looked around for a week, but there was no one around.

She held her breath, held the lion's head, and walked up cautiously, wanting to find out.

This building is small, with no more than six rooms up and down.

Among the flowers and rain leaves, this residence is not like the Jiangnan in the Central Plains, with courtyards and courtyards where privacy and secrets can be hidden to death, but some flowers and trees have been planted around, and some paths have been opened up to serve as some barriers between buildings.

The flowers and trees were not as closed as the walls, but Ah Que felt oppressed and suffocated.

There are only four rooms on the second floor, and Ah Que's martial arts is not low, she knows that there is no one in the first room next to her.

But just now, where did the sound of the stone rolling on the ground come from?

Just thinking about it, Ah Que saw a stone half the size of a finger on the ground.

I walked over to have a look, but it was just an ordinary pebble. Where did it come from?

Confused again, I looked left and right a few times, at dusk, the sky was dark, but there was nothing unusual about it.

Looking up at the eaves of this building, I thought that maybe the building was in disrepair for a long time, maybe I was worrying too much.

Just as he was about to leave, he heard footsteps coming from the third room, he was startled, and the door opened.

A person walked out of the house, and after seeing that it was Ah Que, he obviously looked a little nervous.

"Miss Ah Que, what are you?"

The man stared at the food plate in her hand.

Ah Que can be regarded as Hua Yuye's proud disciple, so he is naturally famous, but the man can pronounce her name, but she can't pronounce the man's name.

But judging from the man's clothes, he is expected to be a disciple of Xiangshui Palace.

A Que said frankly, "I heard there was a strange noise upstairs, thinking that Hua Yuye has not been peaceful these days. I was worried about Palace Master Ding, so I came up to have a look. I'm really sorry if I misunderstood."

Ah Que stared at the man in front of him, thinking that this Xiangshui Palace's martial arts has always been superficial, why did this man discover him first before he discovered it?

His eyes subconsciously drifted towards the third room, and then he suddenly realized.
