beg for chivalry

Wang Xiaoyuan tiptoed all the way to the study.

He was flustered, and his left and right feet kept fighting, and his walking was not so smooth: sometimes he crashed into a flower pot, and sometimes wiped the jars and bottles on the corner of the corridor.

If he was a normal person, he would never dare to come to the study.Because Young Master Jin spends most of his day inside, if he is bumped into, he will definitely be beaten up for no reason.This is not to say that Jinwu loves to read, because Aunt Mu is strict in discipline, this lazy little rice bucket is always clamped to the desk to read on weekdays, and it is almost suffocated after such a whole day, so he always likes to catch Wang Xiaoyuan who is passing by Come bully.

"He's a bad guy... a bad guy, how could he care about my safety?" The young servant murmured silently in his heart, flashing before his eyes all kinds of bullying by the young master in the past, and he became more and more unhappy.In the past, he wished he could run away from Jin Wu quickly, but this time he walked over on his own initiative.Many questions accumulated in his mind: Who is he?Who is that person in the dream?How much truth and falsehood Zuo Sanniang said?

Wang Xiaoyuan's head was a little dizzy, but these were really important things that he had to think about, so he walked in such a dazed way.It wasn't until he walked to the door and saw the half-open door that he woke up in a jerk, and quickly dodged to hide behind the door, peeking at the scene inside the house through the gap.

"Are you hurt?"

Before he could see it clearly, a sentence wafted into his ears suddenly, the person who asked the question was Young Master Jin.

"It's hurting, it's still hurting so much, it will take several days to get over it." Then came Zuo Sanniang's angry voice, still sounding a little sullen. "That martial artist really doesn't know how to pity and cherish jade. Next time I see him, I will give him a few blows."

Hearing this, Wang Xiaoyuan was shocked.In his heart, Sanniang would never show such a coquettish attitude in front of him, only in front of Jinwu would she act coquettishly once in a while.It seems that Sanniang's body is not as "harmless" as she said just now, she seems to be fine on the surface, but in fact she is swallowing bitter tears.

"Wages are paid as usual, work you like or not." Jin Wu said. "It's useless to cry out for pain. You can take care of all the soup and medicine in the house on weekdays. If you can't heal yourself, do you want me to heal you?"

Sanniang smiled and said, "Young master, fifth brother, you are really unreasonable. My heart hurts, and I need you to smile to heal me."

"That's fine!" Young Master Jin suddenly yelled, "Look at how much work you've accumulated, and you want me to help you! There is a fool like me in the world who pays your wages and buys your suffering! "

Afterwards, there were bursts of laughter, beating and scolding, Wang Xiaoyuan heard it, and felt surprised in his heart: it turned out that Sanniang was talking to Young Master Jin in this way, she was very affectionate and loved to make fun of.Thinking about Zuo Sanniang's soft-spoken and soft-spoken appearance to him in the past, his heart was empty again.

After a while, the silver bell-like laughter came out of the door and gradually approached.Wang Xiaoyuan was so frightened that he quickly hid behind the vase, barely squeezing his body into the shadows.Sanniang walked past him with a smile on her face, not noticing his presence at all.When she was far away, the young servant waited for a long time before coming out panting.

He hesitated and walked to the door again, hesitating for a long while but still didn't dare to knock on the door, first he looked into the crack of the door and then stuffed it.This look really surprised him:

I saw Young Master Jin sitting at the table, looking very idle, with one hand resting on his head, and the other holding a candy figurine.

The sugar figurine was wearing a bamboo hat, and the gauze was flying, holding a long knife in his hand.Wang Xiaoyuan only felt familiar, and suddenly patted his head to realize——

——That is exactly the "Jade White Swordsman" he got from the old man Zhu yesterday!

He went yesterday to hear that something was wrong with the book, and the two precious candy figurines he got were taken away by Young Master Jin.I thought that both of them had been swallowed long ago, but I didn't expect Jinwu to keep one.I saw his master twirling the bamboo stick in his hand, looking at the sugar man over and over again, thinking, his face was expressionless and indifferent, but now he showed signs of melting ice and snow.

laughing?

Wang Xiaoyuan noticed it ignorantly.

He had seen Young Master Jin bossing him around, Young Master Jin who was furious at him, and Young Master Jin who taunted him, but he had never seen Jin Wu who could laugh.

The first time he saw it today, his heart pounded, and he could never forget it.

Suddenly, the courage to knock on the door arose in his heart.Without thinking about it, the boy quickly knocked on the door a few times, then pushed the door open and stepped into the room.

Young Master Jin was really taken aback by this move, and the moment he opened the door, he hurriedly hid the sugar figurine in his hands behind his back.After seeing clearly that it was Wang Xiaoyuan, he breathed a sigh of relief, but suddenly let out a tight breath.At first he was a little surprised, but when he came back to his senses, he had already changed into his usual angry look. "Who allowed you in?"

In the past, Wang Xiaoyuan would have been terrified when he heard this tone, but today he was very courageous and asked directly. "The sugar figurine that the young master is holding...is it the Yubai Swordsman?"

Jin Wu's face turned red and white, he hesitated for a while and simply stopped hiding, and took out the sugar figurine again.

"Yes, yes, return it to you now, I'm tired of seeing it." He shoved the sugar figurine back into Wang Xiaoyuan's hand indiscriminately, and shouted viciously again. "The next time I see you come in and don't knock on the door, I will beat you until you cry!"

"I knocked." Wang Xiaoyuan said.

"...You... that strength is like a mosquito humming, please speak louder next time!"

Seeing that Young Master Jin was blushing with anxiety and his neck was thick, Wang Xiaoyuan was not shy like before, and only asked. "Master, do you... like Yubai Swordsman?"

If someone asks what is the strongest martial arts in the world today, no one can answer.But if that person asks who is the number one knight in the world, anyone can think of Yu Qiuxia's name.If you asked Wang Xiaoyuan this question just now, he would naturally answer "I like it" right away.As a small servant who spends his days in teahouses listening to books, he loves to hear stories about chivalry in the rivers and lakes, so naturally he yearns for Yubai Swordsman the most.Who doesn't love such a person who is the best in the world, let alone a woman who is all over the country?

But Jin Wu said, "It's so annoying."

"Why?"

Wang Xiaoyuan wondered, feeling anxious for some reason.Yue Moyubai's sword technique is the most yearning technique for every idler like him who loves to listen to the stories of the rivers and lakes. Even people with swords have become his favorite, and he can't allow others to say anything bad.

Jin Wu said angrily. "What's so good about him? He's not sharp at all, his heart is dull, and he doesn't know how he is called the number one in the world. Most of the warriors nowadays prefer romance, and think that using knives is too vulgar, and no one uses them. He has this ability. It's big."

"Speaking so carefully... as if the young master has seen her before."

Wang Xiaoyuan was a little annoyed in his heart, ordinary people see Yu Qiuxian as a unparalleled and beautiful woman, but in Jinwu's mouth, this person actually looks like a vulgar thing.He blamed Young Master Jin for being blind, but it was inconvenient to say it out, and he just stared at him angrily.

"Yes, I've seen it..." Young Master Jin replied subconsciously, but when he looked up, he saw Wang Xiaoyuan's eyes were clear, and he was startled.This boy is playing tricks on him!So he changed the subject and said. "But only a few sides."

Wang Xiaoyuan originally wanted to ask him about Tianshan Cliff, but the conversation was somehow diverted by Jinwu, so Wang Xiaoyuan could only ask. "How many sides?"

"You lost your way when you went up the mountain to collect firewood two years ago." Jin Wu said casually. "I didn't even intend to save you. After all, the firewood for the winter has been prepared, and you are a domestic slave who can't be helped. It's okay if you don't want it."

Hearing this, Wang Xiaoyuan frowned.

Jin Wu continued. "But my young master still went out and looked around for a while... I couldn't find the rice chicken tied up the night before."

Wang Xiaoyuan frowned and asked stammeringly. "Aren't you... looking for me?"

"Oh, I still think about the rice chicken that was lost at that time." Jinwu didn't answer him, but said angrily.

The young servant secretly said in his heart: "It seems that he really didn't take me to heart." Then he asked: "What happened next?"

Young Master Jin stared at him strangely for a long time before speaking slowly. "Later? I saw a woman standing in the snow, because she was dressed in white, and I was looking for that precious rice chicken at that time, but it took me a while to notice her. You save people, see someone looking at her, put you down and go straight away."

"What joke did the young master say? I heard Sanniang say...you were the one who saved me."

Wang Xiaoyuan didn't believe these words, after all, in his heart, Jinwu was lazy and bad, and often deceived him, what kind of lies couldn't be told?Unexpectedly, Young Master Jin would burst into laughter after hearing his words.

"You? You said I was going to save you?" Jin Wu laughed with tears in his eyes, and let out a series of hoarse laughter.After he had laughed enough, he suddenly kicked Wang Xiaoyuan hard on the knee!The young man didn't expect his young master to make such a move, and immediately knelt down in pain.

When Wang Xiaoyuan raised his eyes in shock, he saw that the young master had a dark face and his eyes were as sharp as a knife.

Jin Wu stared at him coldly, and asked word by word. "What else did Sanniang tell you? You can't believe a single word she said." Seeing the young servant in a daze, he blushed again and said loudly. "It's a good idea to ask me to save you! Count nine winters, how can I have the heart to find you? Instead of going to the ice and snow with a straw mat to wrap your body, how about sleeping comfortably in the house Lie!"

Hearing what Young Master Jin said, Wang Xiaoyuan suddenly hesitated again.The person in front of him still loathes him as expected, and keeps uttering bad words, which really makes him unbelievable what he said to Zuo Sanniang.Will the Golden Crow drag him back to the world step by step in the snowstorm?Would you give up a leg for him?He would rather believe that Sanniang blackmailed him than believe that this sharp-toothed master is his benefactor.

Looking at Young Master Jin's arrogant posture, he felt more and more angry for some reason, he said. "Since this is the case, I have one more question - who is the woman who rescued me? The young master must know some of the reasons sporadically."

"You ask me, who should I ask? He doesn't look like a good person, and he doesn't look like a bad person. Maybe he is a knight and righteous man who travels around the rivers and lakes. He has nothing to do to save you, or he may be a Luo Dao cult. The middleman, I want to use you as a sacrifice to beg for the night." Jin Wu seemed quite impatient, and suddenly remembered something, and said it soundly. "By the way, that woman is wearing a big bamboo hat, and the gauze is flying back and forth, so she can't distinguish between beauty and ugliness. I think the knife in her waist looks good, and I think it's probably the Jade White Sword that is rumored in the world."

When he said this, his eyes flickered, showing a faint sly light, which made Wang Xiaoyuan unable to distinguish the truth from the false.

After hearing these words, the young servant was skeptical.If what Jin Wu said is true, then he lost his way when he went up the mountain to collect firewood two years ago, thanks to this woman's rescue, he survived.If that woman is really the rumored Yubai swordsman as Jin Wu said, maybe she will follow her heart to teach him a half-style sword technique, then it makes sense that he can know the sword.But what if that woman didn't come to the rescue that day?

If Sanniang was telling the truth, then the one who saved him...could it be really Young Master Jin?

But Jin Wu sternly told him not to believe Sanniang's one-sided remarks, and his attitude was cold and hard, which didn't seem like a fake.He was convinced that Sanniang would not play tricks on him, but after seeing her smiling at Yanyan with Jin Wuyan, he no longer believed in this woman very much.

Wang Xiaoyuan's heart was in a mess, and for a moment he couldn't figure out which of the two, Sanniang and Young Master Jin, was telling the lie.His mind was not bright, he was always slow to think of things, and for a while he stood there in a daze, without saying a word.

Seeing that he was silent, Jinwu didn't bother to pay him any attention, only turning the pages of the book again and again.After a while, he suddenly asked again.

"...Do you like Yubai Swordsman?"

Without thinking about it, Wang Xiaoyuan replied immediately. "like."

"Why?"

"Because she is a chivalrous hero, punishing rape and eradicating evil. Even the black-clothed Rakshasa who is known as the world's worst is afraid of her." Wang Xiaoyuan was very interested in this. In the study, he said embarrassingly. "I heard what Mr. Shu said."

"Rumors in the world may not necessarily be the truth." Jinwu was quite disdainful of this.

Wang Xiaoyuan said stubbornly. "Believe it is true, not believe it is false. I would rather believe that she has a warm heart and a benevolent heart."

When he said this, his eyes were clear and transparent, like a clear spring, so bright that it could penetrate into the bottom of a person's heart.Wang Xiaoyuan's demeanor and expression are all youthful and heroic, but not aggressive, and there is a hidden quality of pearls and jade.Even Jin Wu was slightly surprised for a moment, dazed and didn't know how to answer.

When people are in the yellow mouth, they always like to have some sweet dreams.For this person, this beautiful dream is the rivers and lakes that are sometimes turbulent and sometimes hazy and rainy.Ordinary people will always wake up from their dreams after going through years of hardships, and succumb to the hardships of the cold world. Even children in the streets and corners will get bored with the stories they have heard for the second time, but Wang Xiaoyuan will not, he will always be addicted to those stories. of weird stories.His dream will never wake up, and he will always be the little servant in the dream following the steps of the knight.

Thinking of this, young master Jin felt a little sad in his heart.

Wang Xiaoyuan loves to run outside because he loves to hear stories about chivalry and righteousness.Apart from mixing with the crowd and listening to books, there seems to be nothing else to do.With money, fame and fortune in his heart, he might as well find a bench to sit down and listen to the scholar's talk at a leisurely pace.

Jin Wu thought: "What a fool!" But that didn't seem to be derogatory, because he thought again. "Everyone says that idiots are stupid and easy to deceive, but I think he is very shrewd. Sigh, deceiving people is my best skill, why did I fall into a struggle with him?"

The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became, feeling that he was always messing up in front of this young servant, so he threw the pages of the book in his hand on the table, and Wang Xiaoyuan shivered in shock.

Wang Xiaoyuan didn't know about these trivial matters, he just stood in a daze for a long time, feeling uneasy about the coming Jinwu's punishment.After a while, I heard his young master whisper.

"Pack up your things and go out in two days."

It took Wang Xiaoyuan a while to react.

"what?"

This is... swept out?

Suddenly, his mind went blank.In the past, he thought day and night that he would leave the Jin Mansion and run away from the annoying young master Jin, but he knew in his heart that as a domestic slave, it would be difficult to get what he wanted once in his life. He never expected that Jinwu would be so straightforward this time Clearly about to drive him away.

At the same time, he felt shy and embarrassed again: Could it be that he is really a good-for-nothing good-for-nothing?If only Young Master Jin scolded him like this, he probably wouldn't take it to heart, but when he thought that Sanniang might also regard him as a sloppy mediocre person, a sense of uneasiness surged into his heart again.

Jin Wu...why did he say this to himself?

Wang Xiaoyuan looked at his young master, unexpectedly, he found that the eyes of the other party's disheveled hair were also staring at him.Maybe my heart and soul have been taken away a little bit, Wang Xiaoyuan thought, because at this time, Young Master Jin seemed a little unpredictable, but he was not scary.

"Didn't you always want to go out?"

Jin Wu said, that solemn expression caused Wang Xiaoyuan to take a deep breath.

"...Then go find that swordsman named Yu Qiuxia."
