from the crane

Stepping back, he was tripped by the table case and fell, the masked man missed the knife and slashed down again. Jiang Yin threw the pen holder on the book table at him, got up hurriedly and shouted, "Come on!"

He fled to the door in a hurry, but saw another person rushing towards him.

Jiang Yin was very impatient, he couldn't find his sword at this moment, and Luo Shuang was not here, thinking of this, he hurriedly suppressed his thoughts, thinking that fortunately this guy is not here, his legs and feet are inconvenient, and I am afraid that he will suffer here.

After rushing to the outside of the courtyard, he found that there were two or three people waiting again. This assassination was decisive.

Jiang Yin bit the bullet and retreated to the pomegranate tree in the courtyard, with a thin layer of sweat on his forehead. He was unarmed, how could he face these people.

While thinking about it, everyone rushed towards him. Jiang Yin dodged sideways, elbowed the man's abdomen, and let go of the long knife. Jiang Yin caught the man with his backhand at the right time and dealt with the man cleanly, then turned around and attacked the others.

Hearing Qiang Qi's words in his ears, he raised his eyes to look at the gate of the courtyard. It was too strenuous to fight with the four people. When he was distracted, the knife looked at his face. Jiang Yin widened his eyes, but saw that the man lost his muscles and bones. General suddenly fell to the ground with an arrow in his back.

Looking up, Luo Shuang was standing on the eaves hidden in the night, her black eyes were full of killing intent, the moon was hidden behind the dark clouds, Jiang Yin's heart was beating wildly, and the rest of them also died at the hands of Luo Shuang.

The turmoil subsided all of a sudden, Jiang Yin dropped the long knife, looked at Luo Shuang blankly, and moved his lips, "It's okay."

Seeing him put away the arrow and crossbow and jump off the eaves coldly, walking towards him expressionlessly, Jiang Yin's heart beat faster and faster, and he said, "Your injury..."

"My injury is already healed." Luo Shuang looked at Jiang Yin and relaxed after confirming that he was not injured. "These assassins should be targeting Yang Pan. They mentioned her in the conversation just now."

"Do you understand Qiang Qi language?" Jiang Yin wiped the thin sweat from his forehead, took a long breath, his heart was still beating hard, he was really frightened just now.

When he stood on the eaves, he seemed to be the one to solve all the troubles... including himself.

"A little bit." Luo Shuang replied.

After dealing with the yard, Jiang Yin didn't go back anyway. He cried to Mr. Lin half-truthfully, and when Mr. Lin was upset and finally agreed to let him live in the bamboo garden temporarily, it was already late at night. On the steps, Jiang Yin didn't feel sleepy at this moment, sitting on the steps holding a pot of sake thoughtfully, Luo Shuang seemed to be asleep, Jiang Yin walked lightly when he came out, not wanting to wake him up.

This guy always frowned while sleeping, clenched his fists and did not relax at all, his breathing was subtle and invisible, even if he knew he was asleep, he could still feel the dangerous aura emanating from his body.

Luo Shuang was a wolf, Jiang Yin lowered his head and closed his eyes, he didn't know if it was the right decision to let Luo Shuang stay by his side.

He didn't want to participate in the chaos of the court, but this chaos wanted to drag him into the game. Luo Shuang's skills were higher than her own, and even higher than her mother. Will the Jiang family become the next Yang family?

The moonlight was shining, Jiang Yin drank the sake, his throat seemed to be held down by someone, and he couldn't make a sound. Bitter emotions gradually overflowed. He closed his eyes and stopped thinking, "The confinement is bending over Kyushu..."

He didn't expect others' reply at first, but Luo Shuang's voice made him raise his head, and he saw the young man walking towards him, the moonlight bathed him, it was like an immortal descending from the world, and the gloom just now disappeared completely.

"The moon is out." Jiang Yin couldn't help laughing when he saw this stupid sentence, and waved to him, letting him sit beside her, looking at Luo Shuang with his eyebrows and eyes curved.

Luo Shuangsheng's signature is delicate skin. Under the moonlight, it has a bit of the compassion of a Buddha statue. He is used to using a smile that is not a smile, so it is less smokey. Jiang Yin couldn't help but lose his mind. Muttered, "The gods are watching me."

"What are you talking about?" Luo Shuang didn't seem to hear clearly, and looked at him suspiciously, Jiang Yin came back to his senses and said nothing with a smirk.

Passing the sake to him, he looked up at the moon that was no longer round, "Summer is coming soon, and the lotus in the Furong Garden has formed buds."

"I heard that every flower has a flower god, and the day when the flower blooms is the flower's birthday." Jiang Yin listened, nodded and looked up at him, "Where did you hear all this?"

"Everything has animism."

Luo Shuang's mention of animism reminded Jiang Yin of something. He touched his chin and said, "I know a story about Immortal Ruihe."

"Ruihe Immortal?" Luo Shuang waited for the next article, Jiang Yin was in a good mood and continued to tell.

"There is a mountain in the north of Chiyan, and there is a Taoist temple on the mountain, and there are cranes in the temple, which were transformed by immortals." Seeing that Luo Shuang was still interested, Jiang Yin continued, "One day the immortals will leave, but the people don't want to lose the protection of the immortals , so the crane's wings were cut short, and the crane lost its freedom and died in depression."

"And then?" Luo Shuang asked.

"The people lost the protection of the immortals, and plagues and wars swept across the Central Plains." Jiang Yin replied.

"So, it's a sad story." Luo Shuang said thoughtfully.

Seeing his solemn face, Jiang Yin quickly patted him on the shoulder and said, "The story is a lie, it's just made up to deceive children. Besides, there is a sea to the north of Chiyan, and there are no cranes in the sea."

Luo Shuang groaned, then said as if thinking of something, "I have a story too."

After hearing this, Jiang Yin asked sincerely, "What story? Let me guess, is it that the lady from a rich family fell in love with the student who was rushing to take the exam, or that the son of an aristocratic family got the favor of a fairy?"

"Neither, it's actually similar to the story you just told, but I've heard different endings." Luo Shuang blinked, with a rare smile on her face, "After the crane was cut off its wings, it cried blood and wailed. A hermit couldn't stand it, so he took the crane away from the Taoist temple on the night of the full moon, and then the wings grew back, and the crane was free."

"I like this ending." Jiang Yin said with a smile, "Linghe doesn't exist in the East China Sea, it's just mediocrity."

The two chatted for a while, and the drowsiness gradually came over. Jiang Yin leaned back and hit his head on the ground. He didn't care about the pain, so he closed his eyes and muttered, "Luo Shuang, my head hurts so much."

Luo Shuang looked at his frowning, and lay down beside him, "It won't hurt when you fall asleep."

Jiang Yin murmured a few words and then fell silent. Luo Shuang turned to look at his sleeping face. This is a noble son of an aristocratic family. Luo Shuang kept repeating this sentence in his heart.

I reached out to touch it, but finally closed my eyes.

When Jiang Yin woke up, he felt sore all over, and when he finally sat up, he felt top-heavy and extremely uncomfortable.

There was a cold wind last night and he caught a cold. Jiang Yin felt chilly and got up to go to the house. Luo Shuang stretched out his hand to pull him up. He looked at Luo Shuang and murmured, "I don't know what's wrong today. Why do you feel a little uncomfortable..."

Just as he was about to add some clothes, he saw Luo Zhu rushing in from outside, and hurriedly said, "Third Young Master, Young Master Lu invites you to take a boat trip on the lake!"

"Lu Li?"

Jiang Yin looked at her in surprise, knowing that this guy won't attend the banquet after he crowned himself, so why is he so crazy today?

Boarding the cruise ship with doubts, Jiang Yin couldn't help shouting when he saw the person standing at the bow, "Arina!"

Arina looked back at him in surprise, Jiang Yin was about to step forward, but was patted on the shoulder, it turned out to be Liu Yi'an and the others.

"Hey, Mr. Jiang, look at it, let's guess the crossword puzzle today, and the last one will be treated."

"Go, go, am I still afraid of this?"

Jiang Yin glared at him angrily, and while they were chatting and laughing, the boat had left the shore, new lotuses were blooming on the lake, and the green lotus leaves were swaying. Looking at the koi in the lake, Jiang Yin sat down and listened to Liu Yian and the others chatting.

"Do you still remember, the last time Mr. Lin and Mr. Li got together, Mr. Li was drunk, pointing at Mr. Lin and talking nonsense."

After hearing this, Jiang Yin remembered something. Mr. Lin was greatly wronged that time, and left the meeting with a livid face. Since then, he never went to Master Li's invitation.

"The words he said, what about the living dead, the evil spirits crawling out of the Xuan River, are indeed too much, but guess what, my father told me that what Master Li said is true."

"My dear, your father is lying to you." Jiang Yin drank the wine in his hand, shook his head and retorted, what kind of evil ghost is not evil ghost, how could Mr. Lin have anything to do with those things, he is obviously a banishment That's right.

"After hearing what you said, I remembered it. My father also said it." Jiang Yin couldn't believe Yu Wucuo's words even more. Seeing his stubbornness, Yu Wucuo simply explained, "I won't lie to you. This is absolutely true, my father said that he saw Mr. Lin fall into the Xuan River with his own eyes."

"How is it possible? Just talk about strange things. If Mr. Lin really fell, how could he climb up."

"You have an elm head, can we still lie to you?" Liu Yi'an reached out and poked Jiang Yin's forehead, causing the latter to be dissatisfied. People dare to try."

"Anyway, I don't believe it." Jiang Yin curled her lips and looked at the pipa girl sitting on the bow. She was tuning the strings and talking to the sisters around her. Liu Yi'an sighed softly and scolded a dumb goose.

"Anagram guessing! Let me tell you, no one is allowed to cheat, and no one is allowed to discuss with others."

At this moment, Jiang Yao took out a lot of crossword puzzles from the wooden box and distributed them one by one. Jiang Yin looked at the paper in her hand and frowned.

After a long rain?

Jiang Yin turned her head to look at Luo Shuang, and couldn't help asking, "Luo Shuang, what is your crossword puzzle?"

Luo Shuang frowned and replied, "Half full, half empty."

"Empty and full? What kind of work is this?" Jiang Yin curled her lips and couldn't help complaining. Seeing Jiang Yao, she immediately scolded, "Third brother, I will be angry if you do this again!"

Seeing that her sister was going to get angry, Jiang Yin quickly stopped her voice, put on a smiling face, looked at her flatteringly and said, "My good sister, can you give me an anagram, this thing is too difficult, I can't figure it out anyway .”

"Shame on you, shame on you for showing off your literary talent."

Although Jiang Yao said so, she still changed an anagram for Jiang Yin. Jiang Yin looked at the new anagram and read aloud.

"There is no second in the sky, let's go together, every family has it?"

Anyway, Jiang Yin simply held his chin to drink, and turned the paper of the crossword puzzle over, only to find that there were still a few lines of small characters written on the back.

The partridge clears the grudge, and Huafa chases the blue silk.

Next to this line of words, someone added the sentence "I can't do it, brother", Jiang Yin couldn't help laughing when she saw it.

He took Luo Shuang's crossword puzzle with great interest, and only saw four words on the back.

Begonias have no fragrance.

"Why don't you answer the crossword puzzles well, instead of whispering?"

Hearing this, Jiang Yin looked up and saw Aruina, smiled at her, Jiang Yin handed the crossword puzzle to her and said, "Aruina, look at this crossword puzzle, the words on the back are interesting."

"Look at you, you're not good at it. If you don't answer crossword puzzles well, just drink."

Arina pushed away the crossword puzzle in Jiang Yin's hand and poured him a glass of wine. Jiang Yin curled his lips, took a sip and his eyes lit up, "It's so sweet!"

"I specially brought this back from the west of Sichuan. Don't be greedy, and be careful not to fall into the lake when you get drunk."

Lu Li came to Jiang Yin's side and reminded him softly, but Jiang Yin didn't care. He drank the wine in his glass and poured another glass.

After two or three glasses of wine, Jiang Yin felt a little dizzy, but Lu Li didn't lie to him, Jiang Yin thought to himself, let's stop here, he will be really drunk in a while.

But some people don't follow his wishes.

"Look at who this is, why don't you answer crossword puzzles and drink alone here." Liu Yi'an came to Jiang Yin with a smile, and half-jokingly said, "If you like drinking, I will let you drink enough today, each of us How about a toast to him?"

Jiang Yin's face changed when he heard this, and when he was about to speak, he saw Yu Wucuo coming in front of him with wine, biting his lower lip, Jiang Yin drank the glass of wine with a wry smile, and scolded Liu Yi'an several times in his heart.

With his hands shaking, Jiang Yin leaned on his chin and pressed the wine glass to his lips. No matter how sweet the wine was, he couldn't swallow it now.

The cheeks were already stained red, and the pupils were drooping. This last guest could not swallow the wine. Aruina saw that he was really uncomfortable, so she simply said to him: "Give me the wine."

Jiang Yin raised his eyes to look at her, and forced his consciousness to get closer to Aruina. The crowd burst into exclamations. Jiang Yin glanced to the side, and saw Lu Li's eyes full of resentment.

"Jiang Yin—"

Jiang Yin leaned on Aruina's shoulder and smirked, Lu Li glared at him, turned his head angrily and punched Yu Wucuo, Aruina was a little puzzled when he saw it.

"What's wrong with this man?"

"The jar of vinegar has been overturned."

Jiang Yin lazily fell beside Luo Shuang, muttering, "Luo Shuang, my head hurts."

Luo Shuang looked down at him, glanced coldly at Ariana, and gently rubbed his temples, Jiang Yin narrowed her eyes, seeming particularly comfortable.

Jiang Yao was staring at the crossword puzzle in her hand and worrying. Seeing this, Liu Yi'an said softly to her, "I did the math just now, but you brother Yu is the one who is leading now."

After Jiang Yao heard this, she couldn't help smiling and replied, "This is really great, I have to catch up with Brother Yu."

Liu Yi'an held the wine glass, seeing Jiang Yao so happy, couldn't help teasing her.

"Oh, then you can't catch up, you only got a few answers right now."

Jiang Yao curled her lips when she heard this, and watched Liu Yi'an making a gesture to hit him with dissatisfaction. Seeing this, Liu Yi'an hurried to hide, but unexpectedly bumped into the wooden table.

The candlestick on the table was rolled down by this impact, the hot wax splashed on the skin, and the copper base just hit Jiang Yin's forehead, Jiang Yin let out a pain, covered his head and screamed for pain Arina was going to pull him, but he held his forehead and refused to let her see.

"Let me see, don't hide!"

Arina pulled down Jiang Yin's arm, his forehead was indeed red and swollen, sighed lightly, got up and told Luo Zhu to get the ointment, Jiang Yin felt burning pain on his forehead and neck at this moment, and looked at Liu Yi'an dissatisfied, who hurriedly rushed He bowed to apologize.

Just as Jiang Yin was about to say something, his expression changed. Yu Wucuo was also a little surprised when he saw this.

It turned out that there was another cruise ship not far away, and the people on it were no strangers, they were the elders.

"Mr. Lin, why did they make an appointment here? I've never heard my father talk about it." Liu Yi'an looked at the boat suspiciously, and hesitated, "Should we say hello to them?"

"I don't think now is the time..." Yu Wucuo pointed there, with a helpless tone.

It turned out that Yu Wucuo's father had quarreled with Mrs. Jiang again. The three of them looked at each other helplessly, sighed softly and just wanted the boatman to turn around, but they heard a "plop", and the two fell into the water again.

"Go back, even if I die, I won't let Chi Yan fall, you bastards, how many lives do you dare to plot against the royal family, be careful as a stepping stone!"

Mrs. Jiang's angry voice made Jiang Yin tremble, and Arina patted him lightly, and handed him the ointment in her hand.

The slightly cool ointment relieved the pain slightly, Jiang Yin frowned and sat down, her mind was completely disturbed, most of the people lost their interest, the banquet was over, the cruise ship docked at the ferry, Jiang Yin strode off the boat, but stepped on her feet. When he was empty, he knocked on the wooden steps all at once.

Jiang Yao hurried to help him, but he covered his head and couldn't get up, pinching his ears, Jiang Yao said helplessly, "Third Brother, get up, Liu Yi'an and the others are all watching you laugh."

Jiang Yin held his head and felt dizzy. He grinned and said, "It hurts me to death! Why didn't you help me just now?"

"Are you a three-year-old child or a young lady, you need someone to help you when you walk." Jiang Yao answered him unceremoniously, and strode forward without him. He was suddenly lifted up by someone, and when he looked up, it was indeed Luo Shuang.

Jiang Yin looked at him and couldn't help laughing, "Thank you, Luo Shuang."

Luo Shuang said in a deep voice, "It's just a trivial matter."

Jiang Yin stretched her waist, patted her cheek to force herself to wake up, and strode forward, but her eyes kept wandering to Luo Shuang.

Seeing that Luo Shuang didn't speak, he simply let himself go and said casually, "I'll tell you a secret, will you listen?"

Luo Shuang snorted, and Jiang Yin said, "I'm actually an immortal in the Nine Heavens, haha, don't laugh, I'm telling the truth."

"Since you are a god, why did you descend to the mortal world?" Luo Shuang blinked and asked softly. Jiang Yin heard this and replied with a smile, "Oh, you can't say anything. If I say it, it will be bad."

Probably because of his serious tone, Luo Shuang was amused by him. Seeing him laugh, Jiang Yin laughed too, and continued, "When the time comes, I will turn into a butterfly and fly across the sea, and return to the sky to continue doing my job." It's a fairy."

The two talked and laughed all the way back to Jiang's house, and saw Yang Pan just after entering the gate. Jiang Yin frowned when she saw that she was dressed in black and holding a long sword in her hand.

The author has something to say: Luo Shuang's mother is the beauty of Qiang Qi, and her father is one of the best in a hundred.
