Xiao Han [Shooting Condor]

Ji Qingxu's hand injury recovered slightly, so he bid farewell to Xie Yao, and hurried back to Chongyang Palace. Because of Hong Lingbo's joining, the road was not peaceful. Although Cheng Ying's personality was calm and gentle, he couldn't stop Hong Lingbo from messing around. She is the disciple of her family's enemy, and the two daughters are not at odds with each other.

The three of them were having dinner at the inn one day, and the waiter brought a soup and three vegetables. Hong Lingbo raised his chopsticks to look at it, and muttered, "All of them are not tasty. Are these green vegetables and leaves fed to pigs?"

Cheng Ying was about to deliver food, but upon hearing this, she lost her appetite.She put down the chopsticks, and said calmly: "Yes, you have never eaten green vegetables since you were a child." The implication is that if Hong Lingbo had eaten, he would have scolded himself too.

Having been with her for a few days, Hong Lingbo must have known her character. She was about to retort when Xie Yao interjected: "If these don't suit your taste, just tell me what you want." Hearing his soft tone, Hong Lingbo didn't agree Angry, but smiled and said, "I'll go to the kitchen to make it myself."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for other people to react, he got up and left the table.

Seeing her leaving, Cheng Ying turned to look at Xie Yao and asked, "Master, why do you want her to go to Xiangyang with us?"

Xie Yao rubbed his brows, sighed and said, "Don't you want to find out about your cousin's whereabouts?" He paused, "Besides, if Li Mochou really wants to kill her, she can't let her lose her life because of a good deed."

Cheng Ying nodded slightly, and said in relief: "Master, you are always considerate of others, but I am far behind. It's just that Hong Lingbo...I...I can't understand her behavior."

Xie Yao didn't understand what she meant, so he shook his head and said, "It's not surprising that she followed that demon Li Mochou when she was young, and she got a little bit of habit. After all, her nature is not bad. Ying'er, although you are younger than her How old are you, but speaking of it, your character is far above hers."

Cheng Ying's mind was clear, and she raised her eyes and smiled when she heard the words: "I can save it, the big deal is, I won't talk to her on the way."

Hong Lingbo didn't leave just now, but hid in the corner and listened carefully. Hearing the conversation between the two now, his heart turned a thousand times.It just so happened that Chuancai Xiaoer was passing by with a cup of white fungus soup, Hong Lingbo stopped him and grabbed the tray: "I want this soup!"

Seeing the sword hanging from Hong Lingbo's waist, the waiter felt timid, so he had to go back to the kitchen with a sad face to get another serving.

Hong Lingbo didn't bring the white fungus soup to the table, but moved to a hidden corner in the backyard of the inn. She looked up and saw that there was no one around, she quietly took out a small paper bag from her sleeve, and counted all the gray medicine powder in the bag Pour into soup bowls.

Hong Lingbo stirred the bowl twice with a spoon, his heart pounding.She stared blankly at the bowl of soup, and thought of what Li Mochou told her before leaving: "It doesn't matter whether it's poisoning or assassination, in short, the surname Xie must never be allowed to live in this world!"

"Huh? Miss, what are you doing here?" Someone behind him suddenly made a sound, Hong Lingbo frightened his wrist and almost smashed the soup bowl to the ground.She raised her brows upside down, turned around and saw that it was the little girl from before, scolded him a few words, and then turned back.

Xie Yao talked with Cheng Ying for a while, seeing that Hong Lingbo hadn't appeared yet, he couldn't help feeling a little worried.He was about to go to the kitchen to have a look, when he saw a light yellow figure walking around the corner, holding a tray in both hands.

"Is this what you want to eat?"

Hong Lingbo was stunned for a moment, then bowed his head and said, "It's tremella soup." While speaking, she put the soup cup in front of Xie Yao's table, "Xie Daxia, thanks to you, regardless of past suspicions, you are willing to stay with Lingbo temporarily. I was an orphan since I was a child, Knowing that I came from a humble background, I dare not extravagantly ask you to accept me as an apprentice, this bowl of soup... this bowl of soup is boiled for you by myself, I would like to express my gratitude."

Xie Yao didn't expect her to cook soup for herself. Hearing her mention her life experience, thinking of her apprentices, no matter which ones they were, they were all orphans without father and mother, and couldn't help feeling: "Why do you , It’s just that I, a member of the chivalrous family, is doing the work of helping the poor and doing chivalry, I’m afraid you won’t be able to bear the hardship.”

Hong Lingbo blinked his eyes, his heart beating like a drum: "Master Xie... If... if I can do this, are you willing to accept me as a disciple?"

Xie Yao nodded: "No one comes from a humble background, so don't underestimate yourself."

The tip of Hong Lingbo's nose was sour, and her eyes were red unconsciously. She prostrated herself in front of Xie Yao and said, "Master, please accept Hong Lingbo's bow."

She glanced at Cheng Ying, her face turned red, and she said with all her might: "Sister Cheng, I was the one who made trouble for no reason before, so don't take it to heart. From now on, we are all in the same school, and we should unite and help each other." Cheng Ying had a big heart, so she was naturally happy to hear her say that. She stretched out her hand to support Hong Lingbo, and said softly, "Junior Sister Hong."

Xie Yao secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the two of them were finally not at war.Picking up the soup bowl on the table, he smiled slightly at Hong Lingbo: "Lingbo, this soup will be your apprentice's wine." As he said that, he was about to bring his lips closer, when suddenly there was a strong wind, Hong Lingbo reached out and snatched it away, and she moved It's too big, spilling the whole bowl of soup on the ground.

"Junior Sister Hong, what are you doing?"

Hong Lingbo's cheeks turned red when she heard the words, she looked at Xie Yao blankly, and for some reason, hearing that he was willing to accept her as a disciple, she was really very willing in her heart.She didn't dare to hesitate, for fear that the two of them would be suspicious, so she pretended to be arrogant and said: "As my master, Hong Lingbo, how can you replace wine with soup?"

She turned her face faster than she turned a book, and Cheng Ying's affection for her just now was extinguished by her behavior, and she turned her head immediately, not looking at her anymore.

Xie Yao was also quite dumb, and said after a long while: "That's all, it's just a formality." Then he called Xiao Er, asked him to make two liang of wine, and drank it down in one gulp in front of Hong Lingbo.

Hong Lingbo couldn't help feeling warm when he saw that he didn't blame him for messing around with him, but he did it one by one, but when he thought of what Li Mochou had told him, he couldn't help frowning.

Suddenly there was a sound of footsteps on the stairs, but seeing a scribe with a folding fan walking up the steps, the scribe glanced at their table without any objection, his eyes lit up immediately, he walked forward quickly, and gave Xie Yao a deep look. He made a bow: "Thank you, hero!"

Xie Yao took a closer look at his face, suddenly realized, and hurriedly got up and bowed his hands back: "It turned out to be Brother Zhang Yimeng. It is really destined, and we met here again by chance."

Hearing what he said, Zhang Yimeng couldn't help but waved his hands with a smile: "No, no, Xie Daxia, I've been sleepless for the past few days, but I came here specially to find you!"

"Oh? What's the matter?" Xie Yao's heart froze, and he hurriedly led him to sit at the table, and Cheng Ying asked Xiaoer to add a pair of bowls and chopsticks.

Zhang Yimeng paused, took out a letter from his pocket, handed it to Xie Yao, and said: "A few days ago, I met your high-ranking apprentice Ding Shaoxia in Jiaxing, and it was like old friends at first sight. He trusted me in his heart, so he entrusted me to go to Xiangyang to hand over the letter to Xie Yao. A letter from you."

Xie Yao squeezed the thickness of the envelope, and was not in a hurry to open it, but asked, "Why didn't he deliver it himself?"

Zhang Yimeng said: "Ding Shaoxia may have other important matters, as for what, I don't know."

Xie Yao didn't suspect him, opened the letter, and after reading two lines, he couldn't help but smile.Hong Lingbo couldn't help poking his head, and asked, "Master, what did this brother say?"

Her voice was clear and charming, Zhang Yimang couldn't help but glanced at her, the two eyes met, both of them were stunned.

Zhang Yimeng and Li Mochou had a big fight in the teahouse last month, of course he recognized this woman, Zhang Yimeng was suspicious, and was about to ask, when Hong Lingbo hurriedly said: "Senior Sister Cheng! I endured humiliation and lurked by Li Mochou's side, and finally inquired about her. Do you want to hear about the whereabouts of your cousin Lu Wushuang?"

Cheng Ying's heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly asked, "Where is she?"

Hong Lingbo was tongue-tied for a while, then turned his head and made up nonsense: "She was able to escape from Li Mochou at the beginning, thanks to my help. Lu Wushuang told me before that she misses Jiaxing very much, and I think she will definitely be there if she goes. Just go there."

She had previously said that she had not seen Li Mochou since she and Xie Yao parted ways in Chongyang Palace, but now she said that she had found out about Lu Wushuang's whereabouts, so she didn't make sense.But Cheng Ying is concerned about her cousin at the moment, Xie Yao is concentrating on reading the letter, Zhang Yimang is even more confused and doesn't know what they are talking about, just think that Hong Lingbo is Xie Yao's spy who planted beside Li Mochou, and no one has exposed her lie .

Cheng Ying understood, nodded and said: "Then I will leave for Jiaxing now!"

Xie Yao had just finished reading the letter when he heard Cheng Ying's words. He raised his head and asked, "Does it have to be so urgent?" Cheng Ying sighed, frowned and said, "Master, my cousin has been very close to me since I was a child, so I can't do it anyway. Leave her alone."

"But..." Xie Yao looked at the letter in his hand, "But as a teacher, I can't get away for a while, and I can't walk with you. Your brother Ding wrote a letter, saying that he found an important witness to testify for me. I have to Hurry to Xiangyang, and discuss it with the leader of the beggar gang Huang first." It turned out that the letter said that Shentu Xingchong saved Baoqing Tea House, and her father was the young man in yellow who used to draw a bow and shoot arrows by the Dongting Lake to stir up trouble. , Shentu Xingchong and the young man in the yellow shirt had no intention of chatting about this matter, and as soon as they heard of a clue, they immediately reported it.

Xie Yao met Zhen Zhongcai on the bank of Dongting Lake, and it was indeed because of this young man in yellow shirt who was domineering; and the accusation of the beggar gang was because he had a quarrel with Song Zhenxiao Fang, so if this person testified, Xie Yao It is a step closer to resolving grievances with the beggar gang.

When Cheng Ying heard that the matter was so important that it was far more important than her own personal affairs, she quickly shook her head and said, "Master, I have made secret investigations all the way, and I kept it secret. You don't need to worry about me."

Xie Yao wanted to talk again, but Zhang Yimeng said, "Hero Xie, I just want to go back to Jiaxing. If you can trust me, why don't you let me go with Miss Cheng!"

Xie Yao knew that this gangster was also a new player in recent years. After thinking for a moment, he looked at Cheng Ying: "Ying'er, what are your plans?"

Cheng Ying nodded slightly: "Then talk about this gentleman."

Xie Yao saw that she was eager to find her sister, so she didn't want to keep her anymore. He solemnly told her: "If you find your cousin, come to Xiangyang with her. You have to be more careful. If you encounter any difficult things, send a message quickly. Please." Cheng Ying's heart warmed, she couldn't help raising her eyes to look at him, and said with a sweet smile, "Yes."
