Jianghu Tired Brigade

Hong Xiao lowered his head and asked the shopkeeper, "Do you have fine needles?"

The shopkeeper said: "Yes."

Hong Xiao got up lightly, and went out with the shopkeeper to pick it up.

Xiangsi didn't stop her, following Hong Xiao's movements, she loosened her arms lightly.

Hong Xiao didn't dare to look at her, and walked hurriedly when he left, almost using his lightness kung fu.

As he was walking, a low laugh suddenly came from behind: "Young lady, do you only know how to run away when something happens to you?"

Hong Xiao stopped at his feet, blushed and said vaguely: "Saving people... is eager."

She was like this in the past, whenever someone found a trace when she was stealing property, she could always rely on her light body skills, so that the pursuers could only see her back as far away.

But right now, she has never stolen, nor has anyone chased after her.However, there is always a sense of crisis in my heart, and I want to run away.

It is difficult to express such thoughts.

But this faltering appearance made her feel even more embarrassed.

"The girl plans to expose this matter and never mention it again?"

Hong Xiao's heart was in a mess, he shook his head and refused to say more.He stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation, and asked the shopkeeper to come to the front and lead the way.

The shopkeeper walked calmly, and when he passed by, he said: "I see that the little girl is very young, it's a little unreasonable for the girl to delay her like this."

Hong Xiao frowned, showing a bit of irritability on his face, and said: "Acacia and I get along, and it's only a few days to get along with each other. How can there be such nonsense emotions. She treats me as an elder, and I will She is relied on as a junior, so the shopkeeper's assumption is really a bit groundless."

The shopkeeper robbed her, but he was not annoyed. He leisurely walked ahead and said, "I am a few years older than the girl, and I am often confused. My old eyes may misread many things. The girl thinks it is I judged arbitrarily, but why did I run away.”

"I……"

When Hong Xiao said a single word, he found that the words behind him were stuck in his throat, and he couldn't say it anymore.She has always been used to going with her own whim, and she didn't like to say those deceptive words, she was ashamed of her cover-up and evasion for a while, and finally turned into a long sigh, and said: "Earlier, I didn't know her. Between people, just relying on such a short time to get along, can there be such a strange attachment?"

The shopkeeper smiled and said: "The stories in the book are all written like this. Love at first sight, fall in love at second sight, and love at third sight...then you are destined for life."

Hong Xiao was angry and funny: "After all, it is the story in the book, written to deceive the innocent girls in the boudoir. I don't know what kind of ability I have, I can make others fall in love at first sight."

The shopkeeper said without turning his head, "Perhaps he was born beautiful."

Hong Xiao choked on her words, and didn't know whether she should laugh or be annoyed for a moment, but the shopkeeper said: "If the girl has doubts, why don't you ask the little girl directly, but come to complain to someone I don't know."

You can count yourself as "the stranger".

Hong Xiao didn't argue, but closed and opened his eyes, clasped his hands in front of him, his fingertips turned white: "I'm afraid, I'm afraid to hear...another person's news from her mouth."

"This child appeared in front of me suddenly, told me the news of her death abruptly, and was so close to me for no reason, and everything happened so untraceably." Hong Xiao frowned more and more tightly: "But, everything happened again." There are traces of that person."

"Are you afraid that it's all arranged by that person?"

Hong Xiao shook her head and said, "If I knew her plan clearly, I wouldn't feel scared, but I'm worried that from that child's mouth, I'd hear a lot of bad things about that person."

The shopkeeper stopped, wanting to hear her continue with great interest.

The person in front stopped abruptly, Hong Xiao was caught off guard and almost bumped into it, but he should be quick, stepped back up the stairs behind him, staggered and fell back down.

The heel hit the sharp corner of the stairs, and the pain was severe.Hong Xiao climbed on the handrail and stood up, suddenly saw the shopkeeper's face close to him, almost fell down again in fright.

The shopkeeper didn't realize it, but asked curiously, "What's wrong? Let me hear it?"

Hong Xiao finally understood that the shopkeeper liked to hear those weird stories more than she did, so he waved his hand and said, "It's nothing."

The shopkeeper asked a question, and Hong Xiao responded with the same words.

The shopkeeper showed a disappointed expression, turned around and left silently.

Hong Xiao's original words were that in this world, if someone wants to forcefully implant an unneeded memory, the method used will be somewhat ugly...

She didn't dare to think deeply, as if she saw a very dangerous mechanism, and with her temperament, she was determined to turn around and run away.

Behind the mechanism, even if there is a treasure that is most cherished, how can it be so precious as his own life?

What's more, in addition to the possibility of forcibly pouring into memory, there is also a conjecture that Hong Xiao feels shuddering just thinking about it.

Hong Xiao's fingertips were deeply embedded in her flesh, she murmured: "Impossible, this child is not even half similar to her in temperament."

The shopkeeper's ears moved slightly.

The two walked slowly, but they finally reached the downstairs.

The inn that had been overcrowded when we stayed before was now empty, and a disciple of Yue Li Palace could not be seen.

In the lobby on the first floor, the tables and chairs were overturned, and there were many whitening scratches on the girders. If you look inside, you can see hidden weapons scattered all over the floor.

The shopkeeper led Hong Xiao through the messy desks and chairs, muttering incessantly: "This chair can't be used anymore."

"This table can be used again with a foot added."

"Send this sword to blacksmith Zhao, and it can still drive a few nails."

"Huh? This is... silver?"

The shopkeeper stopped, bent down and picked up a hidden weapon on the ground.

Hong Xiao was awakened by her exclamation, and when she looked intently, she saw a silver lotus seed lying in the palm of the shopkeeper.The carving of the lotus seeds is very delicate, even the textures on the petals are lifelike.

The appearance of this silver lotus seed looked familiar, Hong Xiao picked up the money bag and took out a silver lotus seed from it.

Because of the bumpy journey, the exquisite lotus seeds collided with ordinary silver ingots in the purse, and the petals were also damaged, as if they had been weathered.But according to the general appearance, it can also be seen that it is the same as the one in the shopkeeper's hand.

The shopkeeper shook his head and sighed: "I'm afraid this ingot of silver is worth two or three dollars... Counting the engraving, it's really a luxury."

Hong Xiao also sighed at the beginning, this silver lotus seed is made of fine sterling silver, the most astonishing thing is that the carving skills are so delicate that ordinary jewelry craftsmen will never be able to achieve such a state.Even a skilled craftsman would have to spend many days of hard work to grind out such a piece.

The shape of such delicate silver lotus seeds is not suitable as a hidden weapon, and the killing is not as good as an ordinary hidden weapon.

Hong Xiao asked: "Girls in Yueli Palace, do any of them use hidden weapons like this?"

The shopkeeper shook his head and said: "I have been at the foot of the mountain for so many years, but I have never seen anyone use such a flashy hidden weapon. Besides, with the value of this silver lotus seed, it is used as a hidden weapon... You know that the girls on this mountain are like snow. Is Feihong that rich?"

Hong Xiao was startled when the shopkeeper mentioned her name, and when she finished speaking, he smiled bitterly and said, "Feihong on Snow is not that interested." Then he asked: "Which sect is it that challenged Yue Li Palace? "

The shopkeeper said: "Since they intend to attack the sect proposed by Yue Ligong, their influence cannot be underestimated. If they lose, they will naturally run away in despair, and they will definitely not leave their name. If they win, they will be heard all over the world in a few days." their reputation."

She was right, Hong Xiao nodded and stopped asking.

If this silver lotus seed came from Yueli Palace's opponent, many things would make sense.When Li Qingsi rescued herself, she was probably followed by that enemy.

Maybe, she triggered the mechanism in the house, and the hidden weapons all over the sky happened to affect the person behind the scenes.It is understandable that the man used his hidden weapon to resist.

It's just that there is only one hidden weapon.

At that time, Hong Xiao concentrated all his attention on the movement outside.The sound of the hidden weapons colliding was so loud, it was possible that she could not distinguish it clearly, if there was another person moving and dodging in the yard, she definitely wouldn't be able to detect that kind of wind noise at all.

If that person hadn't dodged, he would definitely not be able to do it with a single silver lotus seed if he wanted to knock out all the hidden weapons.

Hong Xiao's thinking became more and more confused, one thing made sense, but another strange thing popped up.

There is another point, why when Kui Niang came to find her and said she wanted to steal Yueli Palace's exercises, people from Yueli Palace showed up.

One after the other, the timing is so coincidental.

Could it be that Kui Niang has already been targeted by the people from Yueli Palace?In other words, Kui Niang planned to lure people from Yueli Palace to her.

If Kuiniang really wants Hong Xiao to steal Yueli Palace's skills, the people from Yueli Palace will be behind, and they will naturally find out the calculations of both of them. defense.But if Kui Niang didn't have such thoughts at all, why would she say such things to her?

Hong Xiao's head ached from thinking about it, and when she gently rubbed her temples with her fingertips, her back felt chills one after another, and the small amount of internal energy was circulating crazily in her dantian, and she almost ran away.

"found it."

When the shopkeeper's voice sounded, Hong Xiao shuddered all over, and pulled out of his inextricable imagination.

She seemed to have caught a cold, and her hands, which were usually extremely steady, were shaking slightly at this moment.

The back is cool and the clothes are soaked.

Hong Xiao is not a girl who has just entered the rivers and lakes, even if she encounters a life-and-death situation, she will not be so flustered.It should be known that the more critical the situation is, the more people need to be calm in order to gain a glimmer of life.

Now, not only is there a cold on the back, but also the inside of the dantian is like a lump of ice, making it uncomfortably cold.

Wherever the trace of internal force wanders, the blood is condensed, and the chill slowly rises along the dantian.Fortunately, her newly cultivated inner strength is not strong, and the coldness is not far away, and it is dissolved by the warmth in the blood.

Even so, she didn't feel well under the attack of waves of cold.

Hong Xiao's heart shuddered, there was something wrong with Yue Ligong's mentality.
