Half-dead paulownia

Sure enough, Xiao Jinmo was already surrounded by men who came and went. It wasn't that he was going to do something too much to him in the street, but he looked up and down with an evil light, which made Xiao Jinmo very uneasy, but he couldn't help it. It can be said that it is difficult to expose one's true identity.

Xiao Jinmo, who was about to be a little overwhelmed, suddenly sank and his eyes went dark, as if something blocked his vision. He suddenly felt his whole body lighten up, and the yelling of the crowd around him also He was getting farther and farther away from himself.

As if being held in someone's arms, solid and warm, gently leaning on the chest, it seems that you can feel the violent heartbeat, but it also stops at a place where there is no sound, and this familiar feeling disappears in an instant without a trace.

Xiao Jinmo noticed something unusual in the situation, and hurriedly took off the scarf covering his head, only to find that there was no one around him, so who was the one who rescued him in the critical moment just now?Looking around with some doubts, he saw a familiar figure walking towards him not far away.

"Xiao Jinmo, you are indeed here." Guiyue said with some excitement, "I thought you were in some danger again."

"I'm really here?" Xiao Jinmo responded in a puzzled way. From Guiyue's words, it was not difficult to hear that he seemed to know that he was here.

"A masked man came up to me suddenly just now, and said only one sentence, telling me to walk south." Guiyue recalled the situation at that time, "I still don't know why a stranger suddenly turned to me. Saying this, but at the moment of understanding, I turned around and found that the person had already disappeared, but luckily you are here."

"Guiyue, we shouldn't be followed by others." Xiao Jinmo suddenly said vigilantly.

Guiyue also looked around, "It's really hard for us to tell whether it's an enemy or a friend, but I also have this hunch, it seems that we need to speed up to solve the problem."

"En." Xiao Jinmo thought about the Pingyue Mansion that the old man told him about in the prison, so he couldn't wait to take Guiyue to ask about it. "But my clothes???" Suddenly remembered that she was still dressed as a woman.

"It's been like this anyway, so let's just leave it like this for now, because the matter seems a bit urgent, and I'm afraid someone will be one step ahead of us." Gui Yue couldn't help guessing.

But he also got Xiao Jinmo's acquiescence. Regarding these trivial matters, he knew that finding his true identity was more important than anything else.

(Pingle House)

On the vermilion gate, there is a plaque with a blue gold frame, with the three big characters of "Pingyuefu" written on it, but no one is holding the handle outside the seemingly imposing gate, and the Zhumen gate is closed tightly in broad daylight.

Xiao Jinmo looked around curiously, but slowly walked up the stone steps and knocked on the closed door, but after several knocks, no one responded.

Guiyue followed closely and slapped vigorously. There should be no one left in a big family like this. Sure enough, the two of them continued to knock without giving up, and heard the sound of the door being pulled open.

A boy who was only about thirteen or fourteen years old came out, but he only showed his head, and looked at the two strangers in front of him with some horror, "Who is here, who are you looking for?"

"I'm Xiao Jinmo, I came to meet Madam at the request of your lord." Xiao Jinmo explained.

"You are talking nonsense, how could you see my lord? My wife is not seeing anyone now, please go back, young master." The boy responded directly without any consideration, and then closed the door.

"Wait, I really saw it in the prison. I have to discuss some inconvenient words with your wife. Please let me know." He took out a piece of silver and handed it to the child inside the door, "It's not easy for anyone now, and we won't make it difficult for you. You just need to inform Madam that Xiao Jinmo is coming to see you. If Madam still says no, we will immediately Let's go, okay?"

The little boy rolled his eyes cleverly, "Okay, then I'll try it, you guys wait outside for now." Finally agreed to Guiyue's suggestion.

The moment Guiyue and Xiao Jinmo saw the door being closed again, they couldn't help feeling a little worried, fearing that it would be difficult to open the heavy door again, but it only took a moment, the door opened again, and it was just now. The little boy opened it slightly with a smile on his face at the moment, "Madam let you in."

Xiao Jinmo looked at Guiyue, and the two walked into the gap where only one person could pass through. After entering, they heard the door slam shut again.

The inside is indeed much bigger than it looks from the outside, it is just like a small courtyard of the royal family, with complete pavilions and pavilions, no matter from which angle you look at it, it looks like an exquisite ink painting.

The boy led the way, and finally came to a place similar to a meditation room. There were also some emerald green bamboos planted outside, which added a touch of greenery to the golden autumn colors, full of vitality.

"Please come in." The little boy signaled the two to enter the room, but he stopped and stood outside the door.

Xiao Jinmo couldn't help being excited, this uncontrollable emotion burst out from the inside out, and finally slowly opened the door, there was indeed a trace of incense lingering, and there was a statue of Bodhisattva enshrined in front of him In front of the eyes, and on the cattail fan below is a woman kneeling, devoutly chanting scriptures and paying homage to the Buddha.

Although he knew the guests who came in, he still didn't open his eyes, he just lowered his head and kept chanting something, his face was not clear, but his gray hair was showing.

Xiao Jinmo and Guiyue also politely did not disturb, but just quietly looked at this woman whose back seemed to be engraved with a mulberry warehouse.

"Sit down." Suddenly hearing a kind and gentle voice, Xiao Jinmo and Guiyue saw the tables and chairs on the side and sat down slowly.

Finally, I saw the old woman get up slowly, turn around and walk towards the direction where they stopped. Although she was an old man with wrinkled face, she was as kind-hearted as her voice, especially those eyes, which were still clear and beautiful.

"My master asked you to come." The old lady knew that only her master knew about this matter, but she looked at Guiyue.

Xiao Jinmo was about to explain that he was the one who needed to know the truth. The old lady might have admitted the wrong person, but she suddenly realized that it was not the old lady's eyesight, but the way her daughter was dressed at the moment. It was really easy Let others misunderstand, presumably the old lady also knows that Xiao Jinmo is a man, and only Guiyue is a man in front of her.

But at the same time that Xiao Jinmo opened his mouth, Guiyue snatched away the words, "Yes, I just didn't expect to know your master under such circumstances." He actually pretended to be Xiao Jinmo.

"Wait for me to get the things." He knew very well the purpose of their trip, and he was just following the master's wishes.

Seeing the figure of the old lady walking towards the back of the ancestral hall, Xiao Jinmo couldn't help asking, "Why are you talking?"

Guiyue smiled evilly, "I'm afraid that you will scare our old lady by saying that you are Xiao Jinmo. Anyway, we just came here to know the truth. It doesn't matter who is Xiao Jinmo, right?"

Xiao Jinmo was speechless for a moment, as if what Guiyue said had some truth to it, after all, how could he tell the old lady that he was Xiao Jinmo with his current attire?I'm afraid it will really scare others, so I simply don't pursue this issue.

After a while, the old lady came out slowly, holding a bright red swaddle in her hand.

"Old lady, what is this?" Xiao Jinmo couldn't help asking, could it be related to his own background?

"This is the swaddle that your mother used to wrap you when you were born. It is embroidered by her herself. It contains everything you want to know." The old lady's eyes were even more shining at this moment, It's just that the expression was a little weird, and he reached out and handed it to Guiyue in front of him.

Xiao Jinmo stared fixedly at the swaddle that was about to be held by Guiyue, and the colic in her chest struck again, but at this moment when there was no defense, the old lady suddenly pulled out a sword from the swaddle , stabbed Guiyue's chest fiercely.

"Old madam?" Guiyue's expression changed from joy to surprise, her eyes were full of disbelief, and the blood on her chest began to flow unstoppably.

Xiao Jinmo was already there in a daze. This was a result that no one expected. Why did this sudden thing happen?

"For the sake of my Anling Kingdom, Xiao Jinmo must die." The old lady didn't let Guiyue breathe at all, and when she had a little luck, she wanted to slap her fiercely.

At this critical juncture, Xiao Jinmo stood in front of Guiyue without hesitation, but the old lady was not ready to stop, "Then today I will make it possible for you to die in pairs."

With a pale face, Guiyue hugged Xiao Jinmo tightly in her arms, showing a faint smile, saying that she would protect you, how could I give up?Finally exhausting all his strength, he turned his body again and stuffed the swaddle into Xiao Jinmo's hands, still willing to bear the fatal blow by himself.

"No!" Xiao Jinmo couldn't help shouting angrily when he realized that Guiyue was protecting him again.

A mouthful of blood spewed out, "Blame me for being careless, making you less perfect." Looking at Xiao Jinmo's blood-splattered clothes, he even deliberately joked, but also slowly turned to look at the old lady, "So This is all designed, I just blame me for underestimating your strength."

"It seems that your body is indeed very strong. No one can withstand the deadly palm of my single-handed martial arts, but you have persisted to the bottom line, right?" The old lady finally said viciously, "Today is the first time I have retired Practice, it seems that I'm still a little rusty." After saying that, his eyes showed fierceness, and he quickly attacked Guiyue again.

"I am Xiao Jinmo." Xiao Jinmo finally told the truth, but he did effectively stop the old lady's footsteps.

"Don't listen to his nonsense, I... I am." Guiyue seemed to be seriously injured.

Can't help looking at Xiao Jinmo, eyes full of questioning and astonishment, "You two are going to die anyway, why bother arguing like this?"
