Brilliant thorn

There was no one around, so Chixue entered the room through the window.

The tables and chairs in the room are fairly neat, the candlesticks on the table are overturned, and are about to be extinguished, faintly dancing with dark yellow light, and the wax oil drips on the table, solidifying into a small puddle.

Judging from the situation, the old man encountered a silent and efficient assassination.

Before he could even react, he was stabbed and fell to the ground.

She sniffed it carefully with her nose, but she didn't smell any strange fragrance. Then how did the murderer not use the scent to enter the house without attracting Shi Zhengping's attention, and knocked him down with one blow?

"Tch, my sister said that you are a well-known master in the Central Plains, so that's all there is to it."

Chi Xue kicked the man paralyzed in the pool of blood, and suddenly heard a very soft muffled groan, she squinted her eyes, lowered her body and sniffed Shi Zhengping's breath, her breath was as thin as a thread, and she was actually still alive.

She squatted there, resting her chin on one hand and muttering innocently: "Should I give you two more stabs or save you? The young master only said that I should keep a close eye on him, and he didn't make a rule whether you should live or die." ah."

While worrying, there was a slight movement outside the window, Chi Xue jumped onto the beam, and after a while, someone came through the window.

The man covered his face in black, and landed silently. He walked around the table and found the person lying on the ground. Obviously, he didn't expect this. The line of sight collides.

"good evening."

Chi Xue grinned and waved at him, a strange bell rang suddenly, and several darts pierced the air and struck.

The man in black dodged quickly, knocked down the dart with a few clangs, held his breath, and was not bewitched by the sound of the bell.

Chi Xue jumped off the beam and wrestled with that man, the table and chair overturned and fell on the dying Shi Zhengping, if it wasn't for the strong body and solid foundation of a martial arts practitioner, I'm afraid he would die this time.

Shi Zhengping's faint sound stunned the man in black for a moment, and Chi Xue took the opportunity to tear off his veil, and she was also stunned.

"You, aren't you..." The girl's face turned red suddenly, she took the Gu bell and took two steps back, and called out "Young Master Xiao" in a polite manner.

Xiao Jue said awe-inspiringly, "You know me?"

"Ah," Chi Xue nodded, "I saw it at the Yan family's wedding banquet. You were at the banquet with our Fu... Fufu." She almost slipped her tongue out, she stuck out her tongue and carefully apologized: " I will remember you."

Xiao will never go into the details, he sneaked in late at night, there is not much time, it is better to go back as soon as possible to avoid Fu Shaoyu's worry.

He came to Shi Zhengping and swung his sword to stab him, but Chixue yelled "Farewell" and flew over to stop his sword.

Xiao Jue was a little surprised: "You were not the one who hurt him?"

Chi Xue yelled for injustice: "It was already like this when I came here! But you can't kill him yet!"

In the end, it was the young master who told him to take care of him. If she really died and delayed the important event, she would not be able to bear the responsibility.

"Why can't you kill him?" Xiao Jue sneered. He could kill his biological mother and adoptive father. Is there anyone in this world who he can't kill?

Chi Xue faltered: "I... I still have some grievances with him, anyway, you can't kill him now!"

Oh, what does she think she is?

Xiao Jue was too lazy to talk to her, seeing that she was obstructing her in every possible way and refused to give in, he simply wanted to kill her as well.

With a flick of the wrist, the frost is like a rolling thunderbolt, rushing straight to Chixue's heart, pressing every step of the way, every time Chixue wants to shake the Gu bell between her fingers, the soft sword will twist around like a phantom, Chixue's secret path is not good, and soon Backed into a corner.

A sharp sword glow flashed by, and she couldn't help exclaiming, she closed her beautiful eyes tightly, pity that she is only in the Mood for Love, and it is really aggrieved to be folded in the hands of the son and wife like this.

The imaginary pain did not arrive, and the sound of two swords clashing came from her ears. She opened her eyes a little and called out "sister" in surprise.

It turned out that Indigo was afraid that she would sneak back home, so she went to check in her room, but there was no one there.She followed the trail all the way, almost too late.

"Young master, no matter what entanglements you have with this person or my younger sister tonight, although Indigo is not as skilled as others, you will dare to stop him." Indigo protected Chixue behind her, and looked out of the window meaningfully. "There is a lot of movement here, please young master think twice before acting."

Xiao never listened, he was determined to take Shi Zhengping's life tonight.

He stabbed Shi Zhengping's throat with a backhanded sword, and the two sisters Indigo and Chixue moved at the same time, one with a sword, the other with a whip and a bell, restraining Xiao Jue from left and right, making it impossible for Xiao Jue to escape for a while.

Someone downstairs heard the movement and thought it was unusual, so the waiter from the store came up to check, and the three of them fought and broke out of the window, hitting the roof all the way.

Not long after, Jueying suddenly appeared, Xiao Jue's heart skipped a beat, fearing that Fu Shaoyu would find out that he had left the house privately and sent him to look for someone, he secretly frowned, thinking that the night was really not going well, it was just killing someone, and unexpectedly met him one after another stumbling block.

In the end, he was afraid that Fu Shaoyu would be overwhelmed, so he withdrew his sword and ran away, and quickly returned to Fu's mansion.

Jueying pretended to make two moves with his sisters, and when Xiao Jue walked away, he withdrew his palm and asked, "What's going on?"

Chi Xue briefly explained the matter, and the three of them returned to the inn. Shi Zhengping had passed out due to excessive blood loss, and his pulse was almost undetectable.

"What is your master's plan for this person?" Indigo asked, if there is no need to save them, they naturally don't care about it.

Jueying sealed Shi Zhengping's big acupuncture points, turned him over, and found that he had been stabbed at the left shoulder blade in the back. an hour.

He pondered for a moment, and decided to help him stop the bleeding first.

"Save it first, I'll go back and ask the young master how to deal with it."

Jueying felt that something was wrong all the way, Shi Zhengping was a martial arts senior who created his own school, even though he had a weird temper and always spoke harshly, but it wouldn't be so that he would bring about a murderous disaster?

After that, the wound on his heart was clean and neat, and the martial arts of the sneak attacker would never be inferior to that of Shi Zhengping.

And looking at the entire martial arts world, how many people meet this condition?

With these clues in mind, he planned to report all of them to Fu Shaoyu, but he never wanted to go back to the son's other courtyard. As soon as he walked to the corridor, he heard a few clear and crisp applause. Gasps escaped through the cracks in the windows.

The ears turned red.

He walked a little further away silently, thinking about waiting for the son to finish his work, but this time, he waited until dawn.

At dawn, Fu Shaoyu put on a long gown and pushed the door out. Seeing Jueying falling asleep leaning against the moon arch, he went over to wake him up and asked, "Why are you sleeping outside?"

The sky was dimly bright, and under his open collar, several ambiguous red marks were looming, Jueying hurriedly moved his eyes away, and said, "Shi Zhengping was assassinated by someone, and I want to ask you how to deal with it."

"Huh? When did it happen?"

"Last night," Jueying stood up straight, and said, "Young Master Xiao should have gone to kill him too, and he was taken a step ahead."

Fu Shaoyu nodded: "Is he dead?"

"Holding your breath," Jueying thought for a while, then added, "I don't know if I'm dead now."

"Oh," Fu Shaoyu went to the small kitchen in the backyard, he raised his eyebrows: "Are you hungry too?"

Jueying choked for a moment before saying: "This subordinate is still waiting for the young master's order, how to deal with Shi Zhengping?"

Fu Shaoyu rolled up his cuffs and took a bowl, lifted the lid of the pot, stepped on the stove, and scooped porridge into the bowl with a large spoon.The rice porridge had just been cooked, and the fire was still simmering under the stove. The moment the pot lid was lifted, he was covered in heat. Before he could see clearly, most of the hot porridge in the spoon poured into his hands, scalding him. Straight air.

Jueying sighed, walked over and said, "I'll do it."

"No, if he knows that someone else scooped it up, he will lose his temper." Fu Shaoyu filled another half spoonful into the bowl with trembling, nunu mouth: "Cover the pot."

He was carrying a bowl full of rice porridge, and walked back stiffly. Jueying watched with fear and thought it was a bit funny. The two of them escorted the bowl of porridge back to the small courtyard, and Fu Shaoyu said: " Since it’s not dead, take it back and raise it, take good care of it, and don’t treat it harshly.”

The tone was very casual, without any respect for this martial arts senior in the past.

Shi Zhengping is not as important as the bowl of porridge that Xiao Jue wants to drink.

Jueying took the order, and when he was going to find Indigo, he was stopped by Fu Shaoyu, "What else can you order, my lord?"

"When you spend your birthday with grandpa today, you can go and bring Tang Yun back." Fu Shaoyu said.

Jueying was stunned: "The Ketaxian Pavilion..."

"It's alright without him, but you can't," Fu Shaoyu put the porridge under his nose and smelled it. The faint aroma of grains made his index finger move. He smiled at Jueying, " After you bring him back, remember to be more attentive like me."

Jueying: "..."

Xiao Jue was lying on the couch, his black hair scattered on his bare back, and he didn't move when he heard the door opening and closing. He kneaded him, then picked him up and brought him into his arms, and fed him the porridge in one bite.

"Are you angry?" Fu Shaoyu held Xiao Jue's chin from behind, bowed his head and kissed him on the lips.

Xiao Jue shook his head. He had been tossed all night, and now he was so sleepy that he had no time to think about Shi Zhengping's life or death. He just wanted to sleep in Fu Shaoyu's arms, "I will celebrate Grandpa's birthday later, Let me rest."

Fu Shaoyu stopped disturbing him, hugged him and lay down with his clothes on, the two slept for another hour, then washed and dressed, and went hand in hand to celebrate Fu Zhanfeng's birthday.

The two knelt in the hall, offering tea one after another, Xiao Jue's ears were a little red, he always felt that this was no different from getting married in the hall.

Fu Zhanfeng took the tea with a smile, and let the two good grandchildren sit around him. Today's birthday banquet was extremely homely, and Wu Shanyun and Jueying were the only five of them sitting around the table, eating and chatting.

On the way, Jueying went to the narrow alley in the backyard, where Chi Xue squatted pitifully in a circle, seeing him coming out, her phoenix eyes were filled with tears: "Brother Ying, are you full?"

Jueying had no choice but to take out a few red cloth bags from his arms and put them in Chixue's hands.

"This is?"

"Grandpa is thinking about it, and sent it to you as in previous years."

Chi Xue opened one of them, and there were several bank notes inside, plus two wooden dragonflies, which were made by Fu Zhanfeng herself, and they were also her favorite things.Immediately, the dark clouds cleared from the aggrieved little face, and a smile appeared: "Grandpa really loves me."

"Where's mine?" There were footsteps coming from the entrance of the alley, and after a few ups and downs, the black robe had already fallen on Chi Xue's side, trying to grab the bag in her arms, "Look how much grandpa gave me this year!"

"I don't give it or give it, it's all mine!" Chi Xue ran away, and disappeared in an instant.

Heipao didn't chase her either, he was travel-laden, and smiled at Jueying: "I really envy you, our group of people are forced to live on the streets, counting your life as the most nourishing."

Jueying told him about his departure for Shuzhong tomorrow, "Young master, I will leave it to the elder brother."

"Why are you being polite?" The black robe patted him on the shoulder, spread his hands on his chest, and hooked his fingers: "I owed you 100 taels last time, it's time to pay it back."

Jueying twitched the corner of his mouth, slapped the person away, and slammed the door on the black robe's face without looking back.

When he returned to the hall, there was no one in the hall, but there was a pool of bright red blood on the ground, Jueying's heart skipped a beat, and he hurried to the side pavilion, and saw Xiao Jue lying on the couch with his eyes closed, with a trace of bright red still hanging from the corner of his mouth.

"Grandpa, I'm sorry." His voice trembled a little, wondering if it was in pain.

Fu Zhanfeng stood aside with his hands tied, and said in a low voice: "Silly boy, don't talk for now, rest your mind."

"Auntie..." Fu Shaoyu looked eagerly at Wu Shanyun who was calling Xiao Jue's pulse, but he didn't dare to continue talking to disturb her, every minute and every second was a torment.

Wu Shanyun checked Xiao Jue's pupils and tongue coating, and heaved a sigh of relief: "It's all right."

"What?" Fu Shaoyu thought he heard it wrong.

"The hematemesis is bright red without black, the pulse is stable, and the toxin has been cleared." Wu Shanyun's voice was a little erratic, "You won't lose him."

Fu Shaoyu and Xiao Jueju were stunned for a moment, and then they hugged each other tightly as if reborn, and the boulder that had been hanging on their chests for many days finally fell to the ground.

Fu Zhanfeng also showed joy, and ran to the yard to set off a few firecrackers to celebrate, "Today is double happiness!"

In order to please his grandfather, before Xiao Jue sneaked out to find Shi Zhengping yesterday, he went outside the city first, found the camel that was abandoned outside because of the assassination, and dedicated it to Fu Zhanfeng. It was two laps in the small garden on a camel.

It's a pity that the carefully cultivated flowers and plants in the flower garden have been trampled to pieces. You must know that these are suitable plants for planting in the Central Plains. To make them survive in Saibei, the gardener has spent a lot of effort.

It was all destroyed once, but no one dared to say anything.

No way, who made the old man happy?
