[Comprehensive martial arts] I fall into the city

The matter of the red shoes seems to have come to an end, but in fact the court has been investigating. When the Tsing Yi Building collapsed earlier, Zhong Ming followed the vines and found out the red shoes organization, but before it was too late to report, the matter of Gongsun Lan came out.

Now that the red shoes are down, and the carrots are pulled out to bring out the mud, after days of tracking, he found out an organization called "White Socks" behind the red shoes.

Tsing Yi Building is controlled by the largest customer, Red Shoes, which is nothing more than a knife in the hands of the red shoes, but this "white sock" is much more mysterious. The red shoes bring in millions of taels of silver every year, and [-]% of it goes to the white socks. Beyond that, there are no other clues.

Tsing Yi Lou is an organization of killers, the organization of red shoes is mostly widows, and the white socks are related to monks, not only monks, but also Taoists.

Li Che met Zhong Ming when he came out of the prime minister's mansion. Zhong Ming was very busy these days. He heard that Li Ning had no time to come and visit after he woke up. When he saw Li Che on the way, he just said a few words to him and was in a hurry to leave. In fact, he didn't reveal too much, he just told Li Che to be careful about becoming a monk these days.

Just like the red shoes came to Li Ning for revenge after the downfall of Tsing Yi Building, Zhong Ming was very worried that White Socks would take advantage of being a monk to make trouble.

Tsing Yi, Red Shoes, White Sox, it sounds like an organization that interacts with each other.

Li Che pondered for a while, thanked Zhong Ming, went to the Jewelry Pavilion again, and then returned home.

Things in the world are too far away from him.

On the contrary, Li Ning showed a thoughtful expression, but after a while, she still shook her head and gave up.

There are too many mysterious Jianghu organizations, and she can't become a roundworm in other people's stomachs. Even if she is targeted, what else can she do?

Li Che patted her head amusedly, and said, "After the red shoes incident, these Jianghu organizations have fallen into the eyes of the imperial court, and they can't take care of themselves, so you'd better stay in the capital these days and wait for the white socks If you tell me, I will let you go."

Even if he didn't say anything, Li Ning didn't intend to leave when she realized that there was someone behind the red shoes.

Although Gongsun Lan wanted to kill her out of personal grievances, there was no guarantee that there would be no one in the white socks who wanted to avenge her. If she died, these people would probably not bother to deal with Li Che anymore, but she was still alive, and the red shoes But he fell down. In such a situation, Li Che is very dangerous.

As soon as Li Ning woke up, she found that her inner energy was depleted a lot, and she even lost a lot of her own essence. Although she also found that the golden silk Gu in her body was nourishing her dantian, no matter how good the treasure was, it belonged to someone else. Che has already told her that, conservatively, it will take at least a year and a half for her to regain her strength.

The decline in strength doesn't mean she can't protect the person she wants to protect.

Li Che understood this thought without looking, but he didn't say anything. After dinner, he suddenly took out a string of bright gemstone necklaces from his bosom.

Li Ning didn't wear much jewelry, she asked a little strangely, "Is this for me?"

Li Che tied the Ying Luo for her, and said, "Given it to her by my adoptive father, I went to the Jewelry Pavilion just now, and the steward sent it. I didn't tell my foster father about you, maybe I thought you stayed in the capital for too long So he asked the steward to buy a few sets of expensive jewelry for you, and the rest will be ready in a few days."

Yan Tieshan has been the head eunuch after all, and she knows the truth that people rely on gold clothes. There will always be people who don't know what to do when a beauty wears plain clothes. Wearing this string of jeweled necklaces like Li Che's brought back, at least most of the dandies who know the goods will be discouraged. .

Li Ning tugged on Yingluo's strap, only to feel that the large string of gemstones was hurting her neck.

She is used to dressing up in the quack.

Li Che thought it was good, but he didn't mean to force it. He just said, "You can take it off at home, but you can still wear it when you go out. I asked them to rush to make a few silk veils, and the top part is still gauze, so that you don't need to wear a face scarf. "

Li Ning nodded seriously.

Li Che said again, "In a few days, I may have to be busy for a while, the law change is complicated, and the sentence must be re-sentenced. At that time, my mentor will let me help."

Li Ning said suspiciously, "Didn't you say that during the day, you just went to report safety?"

Li Che said, "Of course I went to report my safety, but the matter of sentencing was said by my teacher's wife, so what does it have to do with me?"

When he said this, there was complete doubt on his face. If Li Ning really knew him, he would almost have thought it was true.

After Li Che finished speaking, he couldn't help laughing. He pinched Li Ning's fleshless cheek and said, "I hate Lu Xiaofeng, but that doesn't mean I want you to live under such laws."

Li Ning listened to his words, her dark eyes showed a little light, like the sky washed by water, completely clear, Li Che could see his own reflection in her eyes, and he smiled more sincerely.

Li Ning said in a low voice, "Sometimes I feel that if the court's laws are more fair, there will be no world, because as long as everyone respects the law and abides by the law, everyone can live freely."

This was within the scope of Li Che's knowledge.

Li Che thought for a while and said, "The imperial court is strong, the Jianghu is weak, the Jianghu is strong, and the imperial court is weak. Sentenced to use copper as a ransom, you will be fine after paying the fine, but if you commit crimes in the hands of Jianghu people, you will be injured in the slightest, and you will die in the severest."

The rivers and lakes are the shadow of the imperial court, which ebbs and flows, and the greater the power of the rivers and lakes, the weaker the imperial court is. Of course, the imperial court is not weak today, but the power of the rivers and lakes grows one after another, because the court cannot give the justice that the people of the rivers and lakes want.

Of course Lu Xiaofeng is a hero. Although he has friends in the government, he never thinks of reporting to officials when he encounters problems, because he is used to dealing with affairs based on his experience in the world. He regards himself as a kind of "official". He's talking about morality.

The same is true of Ximen Chuuxue's Xia. He goes out four times a year, and every time he kills people who deserve to be killed. , but Ximen Chuuxue felt damned, so he killed.

Li Che will never be able to be a "chivalry" in his life, but it does not prevent him from understanding this kind of chivalry.

Two days later, Wang Xiang really raised the matter of reconsidering the sentence in the court. After the debate in the court, the emperor agreed.

Ximen Chuuxue came to take back the golden silk Gu as promised.

It wasn't too late when he came, but it was winter and it got dark early. When he came, it was a while after dinner in the Li residence. Li Che specially invited Xiu Mu to wait for him at home for a day. The people from Xiangfu came to invite him.

Li Ning fell asleep waiting in the living room.

A lamp was lit not far from the table, and the faint green smoke exuded an indescribably sweet aroma. Li Ning was sleeping on the armrest of the chair with one arm on her pillow, half of her face was just reflected by the candlelight, compared to several The sharpness of a month ago, and the weakness of a few days ago, she looks a little soft.

Ximen Chuuxue stood in front of the hall, he didn't know whether to go straight to wake her up, or stand outside and wait for her to wake up.

Fortunately, Li Ning didn't sleep soundly. It was true. She was not really sleepy, so it was difficult for her to fall asleep in a chair.

As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Ximen Chuuxue walking in with a blank expression.

Li Ning coughed lightly.

After all, her attitude towards Ximen Chuuxue was not very good before, who would have thought that when she was dying of poisoning, it would be Ximen Chuuxue who saved her.

She quickly stood up and said, "Hero Ximen..."

Ximen Chuuxue glanced at her and said, "The person who asked me to save you is Lu Xiaofeng."

If it was changed to the time when she first entered the arena, Li Ning probably wouldn't understand half of what the people in the arena here said, but now she has accepted it well, knowing that Ximen Chuuxue means that she only needs to accept Lu Xiaofeng's love , there is no need to be so polite to him.

Li Ning breathed a sigh of relief, but still smiled and said, "It's strange to call you a hero in person, so I'll call you Mr. Ximen."

Ximen Chuuxue has never been called a son in his life, but he doesn't care about it.

While undoing the bandage on her wrist, Li Ning said, "It's really thanks to Mr. Ximen..."

Before she finished speaking, Ximen Chuuxue suddenly took a step closer. Li Ning subconsciously wanted to take precautions, but her movements were much slower than before. Ximen Chuuxue had already stretched her hand behind her head before she was about to pull out her knife. .

Then the living room went dark.

Ximen Chuuxue extinguished the candle on Li Ning's desk.

The luminous pearl hanging in the living room gave off a soft light at this moment. Although it was not as bright as a candle, it was still very bright for martial arts practitioners.

Ximen Chuuxue held the candle with the lamp holder in his hand, crushed the candle oil with his fingertips, frowned, and said, "The candle is mixed with purple sand, smelling it continuously for a month, the poison will permeate the whole body, except for the red shoes , do you still have enemies?"

Li Ning said in surprise, "White socks?"

At first, Ximen Chuuxue thought it was a personal name, or a nickname in Jianghu, but after hearing Li Ning's explanation, he said, "They want your life, let's make an example."

Li Ning was startled. If she faced the enemy head-on, she would not be afraid at all, but this kind of assassination method of poisoning into the house is simply impossible to guard against.

Ximen Chuuxue looked at Li Ning, and said indifferently, "If it doesn't work once, there will definitely be a next time. I don't need the golden thread Gu urgently."

Li Ning came back to her senses, shook her head, and said, "Young Master Ximen has saved my life. If there is no reason to owe the favor before repaying it, you have to owe it first. Please take back this golden thread Gu."

Ximen Chuuxue looked at Li Ning seriously with an observing look.

Li Ning didn't pay attention to his eyes at all, she lowered her head and unwrapped the bandage on her wrist, revealing the wound that was about to heal.

The jade-colored wrist was slightly chilled under the reflection of the night pearl, as if it was carved out of jade, with a red mark running across it, but it didn't look hideous, instead it outlined a faint color.

Li Ning handed her wrist to Ximen Chuuxue.

Ximen Chuuxue is definitely not a man who can be moved by beauty, but when he looked at Li Ning, he suddenly smiled and said, "You are fine."
