A Faithful Dog's Secret Guard

There is no need to train when you are away from home, but Jiang Yao will still find time to practice swords for an hour sooner or later. He has long been used to sleeping for two or three hours or even less.

Therefore, he did not rush to rest after practicing the sword at night. He calculated the time for value exchange in the second half of the night, first took out the chess record that he carried with him, and deduced it with a pen and paper, thinking that it would be best to ask Ah Xuan for a pair of chess pieces tomorrow. .

Qi Yan was no stranger to the scene of him studying chess late at night. Seeing him frowning and watching seriously on the table, he couldn't help asking: "Why are you learning this thing?"

"Ah?" Jiang Yao was fascinated, and was startled when he heard someone speak at first, but he was a little hard to say when he heard the words, so he murmured, "I just want to learn better..."

"Who are you planning to play with after you learn it?" Qi Yan looked him up and down, "We don't know how to play anyway, maybe only the master and Mr. Ji will play a game in Ping Zhaohou's mansion... Wait, wait, You don't want to talk to the master..."

"No!" Jiang Yao was very ashamed of being talked about, blushing and shaking his head, "Why did the master come with me..."

"I remembered. You were on duty outside the house that day. I heard that the master asked you to go in to play chess with him. The pavilion master said that neither you nor the master seemed very happy that day." Seeing him like this, Qi Yan suddenly realized, "So Is it because you didn't play well enough to offend the master?"

Thinking of what happened that day, Jiang Yao lowered his eyes desolately, bit his lips, and whispered, "I'm too stupid."

"You are not stupid to learn sword so well." Qi Yan couldn't bear his aggrieved look, and comforted him, "If you learn to play chess every day, you will definitely be able to learn it well."

Jiang Yao tightly clenched the pen in his hand, and a certain page of the chess record was also crumpled by him, and he lowered his eyes and remained silent.

He is just stupid, no one will like him, and even if he learns to play chess well, he will make his master angry because of other things.

"By the way, did the pavilion master say..." Jiang Yao looked at Qi Yan eagerly, "Can I still stay with the master?"

"I didn't say it." Qi Yan knew what he meant, so he didn't dare to say that, so he said, "It should depend on what the master wants."

Jiang Yao leaned back on the table again, deducing each move on the paper while looking at the chess record, his eyes blushing quietly.

This matter didn't bother him for long, the next day Xiao Yin didn't go to Jiang Xuan to talk about business, but called him over.

Jiang Yao knelt on the ground and did not dare to speak, but Xiao Yin also remained silent for a while, which made him feel afraid that the guillotine would not fall for a long time. After thinking about it, he was the first to admit his mistake: "The subordinate knows his mistake, and he should not lie to the master about his true identity. Please punish the master."

Xiao Yin looked down at the man kneeling on the ground and kowtowed three times, and smiled inexplicably, and said: "Now don't you say that you are Jiang Lianzhi? Didn't you just kill yourself and think that you are Jiang Lianzhi?"

"Subordinates know their mistakes..."

"As I said, I have old grievances with Jiang Lianzhi. You said you were Jiang Lianzhi and I kept you. Now it seems that I don't need to keep you anymore?"

He heard what he was most afraid of hearing. Jiang Yao trembled all over his body. He felt as if he was in a world of ice and snow without any warmth. His lips moved, but he didn't know what to say. He really lied to Xiao Yin. A secret guard who is full of lies, and the only old thing that can make Xiao Yin change his mind, he can't tell now.

Jiang Yao had no choice but to crawl to Xiao Yin's feet step by step with the most humble attitude, grabbed the corner of Xiao Yin's robe, and said in a shy voice: "Please don't drive me away...Master can punish me in any way, as long as the master can calm down... ...please master...please master..."

Xiao Yin always couldn't understand Jiang Yao's strange thoughts. From the very beginning, Jiang Yao was too obedient in front of him, beat and scolded, and insisted on staying by his side, but he should have nothing to do with this person. What kind of intersection is it? I really don’t know what it is to be so wronged. Before, maybe it could be understood as being controlled by Jiang Lianzhi to complete the task, but now there is no need for it. Jiang Lianzhi sent Jiang Xuan. It doesn't matter if he discovers this secret, then Jiang Yao's mission can also be over.

"You are from the Jiang family, and Jiang Xuan is here now, you should go to find him and go back to the Jiang family." Xiao Yin said coldly, "Although I hate the Jiang family, there is no need to embarrass you as a secret guard. what you do?"

Jiang Yao desperately shook his head: "I am no longer from the Jiang family. I left the Jiang family five years ago and returned the badge of the dark guard. The brand of the dark guard of the Jiang family was also erased by the Soul Devouring Pavilion. I am not anymore. ..."

"Even if you are no longer the Jiang family's secret guard, but I heard that when the Jiang family bought you and your brother back from outside, the deed of sale was always in the hands of the Jiang family, right?" Xiao Yin was unmoved, "Who is the deed of sale?" You can go back there, I will leave you in violation of the rules."

Jiang Yao's nails almost tore through his palms, he looked up at Xiao Yin with red eyes and said, "Is it... I got my contract of sale, you can, you can keep me..."

Xiao Yin found this person's insistence more and more ridiculous, and said: "You go and get it first, then we can talk about it."

Jiang Yao's eyes lit up as if he had grasped a life-saving straw, and he ran out the door to find Jiang Xuan.

Jiang Xuan at the other end heard that Jiang Yao was going to sell his life contract, he was puzzled and said, "Brother, what are you going to do?"

"The young master promised me five years ago. Going to the Soul Devouring Pavilion instead of him is the last thing I will do for the Jiang family. When the mission is completed, I will not have to do anything for the Jiang family again." Jiang Yao refused. Explain more, just gritted your teeth and looked at him, "Now that the young master sent you here, does it mean that I don't have to pretend to be him to do this anymore, then I will have nothing to do with the Jiang family anymore. Not too much."

Jiang Xuan looked at him deeply: "Brother, you don't really plan to stay with Xiao Yin forever, do you?"

"I killed him back then, and I haven't made amends yet..."

Jiang Xuan interrupted him: "You didn't do anything wrong back then, you didn't do the poison, even if you felt guilty, and you helped him escape later, you almost took your life, it's not enough to atone for it ?"

As if there was a deep, deep secret in his heart that was uncovered by someone, Jiang Yao clenched his sleeves tightly, his knuckles turned white, and forced himself to speak: "Back then he saved my life..."

"You might as well say that you were obsessed when you saw him back then, and it's good to be seduced by him." Jiang Xuan's smile was very faint, and Jiang Yao's eyes were even a little cold, "You just want to stay by his side Just look at him every day, am I right?"

Jiang Yao stood up abruptly, the deep secret in his heart seemed to be completely ripped out and exposed to countless pairs of eyes, he was so panicked that he couldn't make a sound, and he said after a long time: "It's not what you think, he is different now and then. A lot, I, I..."

"So you feel sorry for him, and you feel even more guilty when you think about what happened back then, and you feel sorry for him, and you want to stay with him." Jiang Xuan once again ruthlessly pierced his thoughts, "Back then, Jiang Lianzhi beat and scolded you , meeting a Xiao Yin who is so kind to you and is willing to save your life moved your heart, but you never thought that the day would be Xiao Yin's death day, and it would be better to die if you survived. You wanted to save him but missed You harmed him, and your heart is both guilt and obsession, and now your obsession is only getting deeper. Brother, just admit it, you have unreasonable thoughts about Xiao Yin."

Unreasonable thought...

These four words suddenly pierced into Jiang Yao's heart like a knife, and he felt a dull pain in his heart, dripping with blood. He never thought that he had such thoughts for Xiao Yin, but now Jiang Yao said it to him But could not find a reason to refute.

However, he didn't relax much. What hurt him the most was the word "unfive". Who is he, and who is Xiao Yin? Who gave him the courage to think about someone like Xiao Yin?

"Don't say any more..." Jiang Yao covered his face dejectedly, and held Jiang Xuan's hand again, "Ah Xuan, can you help me get back the deed of prostitution?"

Jiang Xuan understood everything back then, his brother was pure in heart, and he could remember a little favor from others for a lifetime, not to mention Xiao Yin who was so enviable back then, meeting Xiao Yin might be the light that his brother met while walking in the dark. He did so many things just to catch that beam of light.

"I can help you with a contract of sale." Jiang Xuan sighed, "But you have to promise me that you will not do anything to hurt yourself."

Jiang Yao nodded and said: "I just want to repay the kindness of the past, and I will leave after repaying. No matter what, I will not abandon you."

"Brother, you don't have to worry about me." Jiang Xuan said, "You don't have to do anything for me anymore. I can protect myself. You should do what you want and stop living for others."

Jiang Yao has never thought about these things. It seems that he has never realized what it feels like to live for himself since he was born. He dare not think about it, and he has no chance to think about it. Now he just wants to stay by Xiao Yin's side and be Xiao Yin's secret. Wei, live for Xiao Yin.

Jiang Xuan called out: "Lu Ying."

The man in black from last night came in, lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, waiting for orders, Jiang Xuan said: "Go back to Luochaozong, and find my brother's contract of sale, go and come back quickly, don't delay."

Lu Yingying did not ask any further questions, and left the place in a flash.

Jiang Yao frowned slightly. This person seemed to be under the orders of A Xuan, so why didn't he want to say more every time he asked about A Xuan, as if he was ordered by others and dared not say more, which was so strange.

It's just that right now his mind is completely taken up by the fact that the deed of selling his life can be taken back, and he is full of secret joy.

Before getting back the deed of sale, Jiang Yao didn't go back to Xiao Yin's side, but stayed with Jiang Xuan, so Xiao Yin thought about it over there and always felt that Jiang Yao was suspicious, so he summoned someone who lived with Jiang Yao Qi Yan asked.

"Is there anything strange about him recently?" Xiao Yin said, "Also, has he told you anything, such as why he insisted on staying in the dark pavilion."

Qi Yan thought hard for a while, then shook his head and said, "I haven't said that, as for the strangeness..." He hesitated for a moment, and then said, "He has been addicted to playing chess recently, and he has to teach himself for a while every day, even this time he goes out with him. Bring the chess record."

Xiao Yin was stunned for a moment: "Play chess? What does he learn to play chess for?"

Qi Yan carefully glanced at Xiao Yin's expression, and said: "It seems to be related to you, the master. It started after he played chess with you once that day..."

Xiao Yin rubbed the center of his brows, his mind became even more confused, there was never anything that made him so confused, he just had a whim that day, but this person went to learn chess seriously for him with great fanfare?

There is also that Jiang Xuan, who always feels extremely strange, but I can't tell...

"Go to Jiang Xuan's place and pass a message, just say that I invite him to drink tea in the evening."

The author has something to say:

I always have to go out to pay New Year's greetings recently, and there may be no way to change it every day. If there is no change before midnight, don't wait for me, kneel.
