Mei Shuao stared at the bamboo chopsticks on the table, chuckled lightly, deep in her downcast eyes was an unexplainable loneliness.

"Eat quickly, and go find my brother after eating."

Ji Yu handed the pair of unused chopsticks to Mei Shuao, "Shu Li is here too?"

"Yes."

Mei Shuao fiddled with the rice grains in the bowl with bamboo chopsticks, but didn't take another bite.

Both of them were silent, and the meal was quickly used up.

When the two arrived at the Yang family's house, Yang Zhengnan and Mei Shuli hadn't returned yet.

"You two sons, please wait for a moment."

The boy didn't dare to neglect when he learned that the person who came was Mei Shuli's younger brother, and stepped aside after serving tea.

Not long after waiting, Yang Zhengnan and Mei Shuli walked into the welcoming hall with smiles on their faces.

When Yang Zhengnan saw Ji Yu, his smile froze at the corner of his mouth, but he recovered immediately and said, "I thought it was some honored guest. It turned out to be Miracle Doctor Xinglin Ji, who was welcome at some point."

Ji Yu glanced at Yang Zhengnan in disgust, but didn't answer.

"Heh." Mei Shuao jokingly said: "Stop talking nonsense, hand over the chain key."

"Who is this?"

Yang Zhengnan pretended not to understand, and asked puzzledly.

"This is my brother-in-law, Mei Shuao." Mei Shuli responded with a smile, but her eyes kept looking at Ji Yu, "I heard that Doctor Ji was invited to the residence by Yang Xiandi last night, and now it seems that Yang Xiandi entertained Doctor Ji very well Well."

Yang Zhennan's back was covered in cold sweat, he deliberately ignored Mei Shuao's cold stare, and coughed dryly: "I just saw Miracle Doctor Ji just now."

"Shh-"

Before Yang Zhennan could react, a sword was pointed at his neck.

Mei Shuao held the sword in his left hand, and stood sideways in front of Yang Zhengnan, "The key."

"What key?" Yang Zhengnan wiped the sweat from the tip of his nose, and looked at Mei Shuli with doubts on his face.

At this time, Mei Shuli was already standing beside Ji Yu, quietly looking at Ji Yu's bandaged right hand.

Yang Zhengnan smiled knowingly, "It's a good trick to divert the tiger away from the mountain."

Mei Shuao waved the folding fan, said leisurely: "Brother Yang Xian misunderstood me, I went back to Huaicheng and stopped by here to have a look, I don't know when my brother will come."

Yang Zhengnan didn't argue with Mei Shuli, it was obvious.

Twitching the corners of his mouth, Yang Zhengnan said to Mei Shuao: "You point your sword at how I can find you the key."

After finishing speaking, he lightly flicked Mei Shuao's sword twice with his hand.

"Let the servants get it." Mei Shuao moved the sword a little closer.

The two younger servants were already so frightened that their legs became weak, and they didn't know what to do when they heard Mei Shuao's words.

Mei Shuli sighed deeply, "Brother Yang Xian, my younger brother has a bad temper after a serious illness and is always angry. If he does something, I can't control him. What he wants, I, the eldest brother Plead for him now, it's not a big deal, just give him something."

This made him look clean?Yang Zhengnan chuckled: "Qingshan, go to my room and open the second compartment of the cabinet, there is a key inside, take it here."

A slightly older boy responded and hurried out of the hall.

"Junqin, sit down."

After Mei Shuli finished speaking, he moved another wooden chair and placed it behind Yang Zhengnan, "Xiandi Yang, sit down and rest."

Seeing Yang Zhengnan sit down, Mei Shuli also slowly sat down beside Ji Yu.

If you ignore Mei Shuao and the sword in his hand, the smiles on the faces of Mei Shuli and Yang Zhengnan are like friends talking freely.

Yang Zhengnan was obviously laughed out of anger, but the smile on Mei Shuli's face seemed to be born with him.

"Junqin, what's wrong with your hand?"

Mei Shuli suddenly picked up Ji Yu's right hand in surprise and looked at it repeatedly.

Ji Yu was no longer surprised by Mei Shuli's thick-skinned ability, and said flatly, "Small injury, it's not a problem."

"Xiao Ao! Aren't you with Junqin? How could you hurt him?" Mei Shuli said in a stern tone, and glanced casually at Yang Zhengnan.

Yang Zhengnan didn't say anything, and took his time watching what tricks the two brothers could play.

Seeing this, Mei Shuao had no choice but to cooperate with Mei Shuli and said: "It was like this when I saw the trapped Junqin in Yang's residence."

"Oh?" Mei Shuli cast even more surprised gazes at Yang Zhengnan, "What did Yang Xiandi trap Doctor Ji for? Doctor Ji was also injured, if people in the world know about it..."

"Since I have done it, I am not afraid of being known."

No longer playing around with Mei Shuli, Yang Zhengnan teased, "Miraculous Doctor Ji really makes friends a lot. Before I even spoke, there were people who rushed to stand up for him."

Mei Shuli was still shaking the folding fan with a smile, but there was no smile in his eyes, "He doesn't need to make any friends. He mentioned that Xinglin's genius doctor is disrespectful. Brother Yang, don't be ignorant of compliments."

Ji Yu stretched out his hand to hold down Mei Shuli who wanted to get up, and said to Yang Zhengnan: "I don't want to cause so much trouble, just don't bother me after handing over the key."

"It's as if I'm so noble. Don't think that I will be afraid if Mei's family will help you."

As soon as Yang Zhengnan finished speaking, the sharp sword around his neck moved a little closer, and a bloodstain appeared on his tanned neck.

Mei Shuao stared at Yang Zhengnan coldly, no matter how hard the sword in his hand was, it would kill him.

"What to say and what not to say, Yang Xiandi should understand."

Mei Shuli started to shake the fan leisurely again, and said to Ji Yu beside him, "Is Junqin hot? I'll fan you."

"It's November now."

The bun was flying in the air, Ji Yu half-closed his eyes and looked at Mei Shuli.

Mei Shuli had no choice but to take back his folding fan and fan himself, propped his chin and said, "I think it's quite hot now, Brother Yang is sweating a lot."

Mei Shuao couldn't bear Mei Shuli's noise, and just wanted him to calm down for a while, Qingshan walked in with a key.

Yang Zhengnan signaled Qingshan to hand over the key to Mei Shuao, who took the key and threw it to Mei Shuli, "Open Junqin's anklet."

However, the moment Mei Shuli turned his head, Yang Zhengnan pulled out a soft sword out of nowhere, blocked Mei Shuao with the soft sword, and quickly dodged to a place one foot away from Mei Shuao.

The subordinates guarding the door also entered the hall at this time, and surrounded Mei Shuao and others in an attacking posture.

"Tsk tsk, Xiao Ao, your kung fu has regressed again."

Mei Shuli closed the folding fan and started to get serious. Just now, he felt that the boy called Qingshan had wrong eyes, so it turned out that he had asked for help.

Mei Shuao retreated to Ji Yu's side and handed Ji Yu a small dart. He had taught Ji Yu how to use hidden weapons. At critical moments, a small hidden weapon can save a person's life.

Mei Shuli saw the small movements of the two of them, and deliberately raised his voice and said: "The guards raised by Younger Brother Yang are indeed well-deserved. I have always wanted to see them, but today I have seen them."

Yang Zhengnan met Mei Shuli at the martial arts competition a few years ago, and it was the first year that Mei Shuli offered a hundred taels of gold.Yang Zhengnan won the first prize at a young age, he was well-known in the Jianghu at that time, but he was an infatuated person, after getting married, he retired from the Jianghu and set up a family business near Huaicheng, he was happy and happy.

In order to prevent outsiders from disturbing the peaceful life of the husband and wife, Yang Zhengnan took in eight apprentices, and the guard formed was famous for their tacit cooperation.

Mei Shuli said it loudly to make Mei Shuao and Ji Yu not take it lightly.

Yang Zhengnan waved his hand, and the eight people neatly dressed in dark blue rushed forward together.

Mei Shuao and Mei Shuli guard Ji Yu in the middle, Mei Shuao sticks to the sword, and Mei Shuli only has a folding fan in his hand.

"Junqin, take care of yourself."

Mei Shuao patted Ji Yu's shoulder, then concentrated on dealing with the few people who surrounded him.

"Xiao Ao, your brother and I are just a broken fan, and don't care about me."

Mei Shuli still blocked most of the attacks for Ji Yu.

The eight of them all used long sticks. The child's arms were so thick, I don't know what they were made of, but they didn't break when he slashed them with a sword.

Everyone cooperated very well. If one of them failed to attack two consecutive moves, he immediately stepped aside, and the people behind him continued to push forward.

Such uninterrupted attacks made Mei Shuli a little bit exhausted, and said through gritted teeth: "I told you not to let you come alone, but you still took the initiative to come to provoke me."

At this time, Mei Shuli also forgot how she pretended to be ignorant just now.

"Isn't there still you?"

Mei Shuao saw that Ji Yu barely dodged the stick that was chopped down by someone, and his moves became fiercer. A sword pierced the chest of the man who was swinging the stick at Ji Yu. At this time, either you die or I die.

Yang Zhengnan sat aside and saw one of his apprentices fell down, his eyes were calm, "Put the formation."

The remaining seven people were wielding long sticks in unison, with four standing in front and three behind.

The not-so-light stick was played lightly in the hands of several people, and the stick turned quickly, slowly approaching Mei Shuao and the others.

Mei Shuao took the initiative to protect Ji Yu with the sword, exchanged glances with Mei Shuli, and then rushed up one left and one right.

Facing the four people in front of them, the three behind waved their sticks from the gap between the two in front, attacking the legs of Mei Shuao and Mei Shuli.

The fight lasted less than a quarter of an hour, but Mei Shuao stopped.

Mei Shuli was puzzled, turned around and saw that Yang Zhengnan had already clamped Ji Yu's neck.

"All stop."

When the seven apprentices saw what the master said, they all put away their sticks, lifted the fallen man aside, and stood quietly beside Yang Zhengnan.

Yang Zhengnan said mockingly: "I don't know if my apprentices can beat you. But your weaknesses are too obvious, especially this Mr. Mei Shuao, who has too many worries and is always distracted. "

"Throw away the sword." Yang Zhengnan's hand was a little harder, and Ji Yu was struggling to breathe.

Mei Shuao threw the sword to the ground, staring at Yang Zhengnan's hand.
