This flirtatious tone, who else could it be except Xue Jinyi and Young Master Xue? Zhang Mu's footsteps didn't stop, as if he didn't hear it, he walked straight into the gate of Chunfenglou. It's not bad, and I came forward to entertain you hospitablely.

"Is there a room on the third floor?" Zhang Mu asked directly, and Xue Jinyi behind him had already quickened his pace to catch up.

"Yes, yes, yes," the waiter nodded vigorously, stretched out his hand towards the stairs, and made a "please" gesture.

Zhang Mu took out a few copper coins from his pocket and stuffed them into the hands of another shop waiter, "If you stop that man in a water-blue round-neck robe from following me, you will be rewarded later."

The younger sister of the famous store smiled and eagerly went to stop Xue Jinyi.

Zhang Muti slipped up the back of the waiter's collar, and took the opportunity to quickly run up to the third floor.There are two left and right corridors on the third floor, each with more than a dozen guest rooms. From the open windows at the end of the corridor, you can see the blue sky.

"Guest officer, your vision is really good. The third floor of our inn can overlook the scenery of the imperial capital from the room. It is really the best choice for a sojourn. The inns next to the imperial capital are not as good as ours." The waiter introduced enthusiastically, "Are you satisfied? There are only three guest rooms left on the third floor. You need to get a room early."

Zhang Mu pointed to several guest rooms facing northwest, "Is there an empty room there?"

The waiter thought about it, and apologized with a smile: "Sorry, guest officer, those rooms have already been occupied, what do you think of this one? You can see the mountains outside the city." Actively pushed away the room facing west, "Come and take a look."

Zhang Mu noticed the movement downstairs, stepped into the house, and closed the door behind him.

The window of the room was open, and one could just see a corner of the hospital where Lao Ding and Scarface lived. Although it was impossible to control everything, this angle was not bad.

"Okay, I want this one." He looked away from the window, paid the waiter a deposit, and said solemnly: "When you go downstairs, if someone asks which room I live in, don't mention it to him. "

The waiter in the shop has seen all kinds of customers, so he can clearly feel the coldness of the person in front of him. Although he has encountered the most naughty customers, the solemnity and coldness of this person still makes him involuntarily Trembling all over, he repeatedly agreed.

In the territory of the imperial capital, there are all kinds of people. As a young boy in an inn, he does what he is told.

The waiter held the money, poured a cup of hot tea, and walked towards the door.

"Wait a minute!" Zhang Mu suddenly yelled softly, leaped forward, covered the waiter's mouth with one hand from behind, and pressed the other on the door panel, preventing him from opening the door.

The shop clerk was stunned for a moment, then heard footsteps on the stairs, and could tell that there were two people going upstairs.

He guessed that someone the guest officer didn't want to see had come upstairs, so he kept silent.

After the sound of footsteps outside the door stopped, another waiter in the store spoke passionately, boasting that Chunfeng Building was so hyped up that it was several times better than Zhenyuan Building, the No. [-] building in the imperial capital.

"Guest officer, are you satisfied?"

"Is anyone living in these rooms?"

"Oh, sir, I'm sorry, the rooms in this row are full. How about this one? It's a big place, the furniture is new, and the scenery outside is beautiful."

"The fortune teller said that my nearest blessed land is in the northwest, since you don't have one here, forget it."

Xue Jinyi said regretfully, waved his hand, raised the hem of his clothes chicly, like flowing water, and jumped down the stairs briskly.

The shop waiter looked at his back like a fool.

After the silence outside the door, Zhang Mu let go of the waiter in his arms, cupped his fists and apologized, "I'm sorry."

"It's okay, it's okay." The waiter waved his hand and slipped away.

Zhang Mu turned back to the bed and saw Dao Scar's face holding a wooden stick, practicing martial arts in the middle of the open space in an orderly manner.He is strong in stature but short in stature. He moves nimbly like a squirrel. He taps the wood piled up in the corner with his toes, jumps onto the roof of the main house with ease, and winks at Lao Ding on the ground.

The bright sunlight fell all over his body, casting oblique shadows on the gray tiles, and part of them reflected on Lao Ding's smiling face.

If he didn't know the identities of the two, Zhang Mu would almost treat them as ordinary brothers.

At noon, Guanshi Tong personally delivered the day's food, and casually took away the dishes brought yesterday.He exchanged a few polite greetings with Lao Ding, and then left in a hurry, as if he was afraid that a man-eating monster would suddenly appear in the yard.

Zhang Mu sat by the window, eating the food delivered by Xiao Er, staring at the corner of the courtyard without blinking, even the voices in the originally quiet corridor outside the door were quickly ignored by him.

The voice was indistinct, and a few words revealed that those people were just residents living on the third floor, and they soon became quiet.

The door squeaked, and Zhang Mu noticed that it was the person from the next room who had returned.The room separated by a wall is the first choice for monitoring that courtyard.He glanced at Scarface and Old Ding who were sitting on the porch eating well, got up and walked out of the room, and knocked on the door next door.

Maybe with a few words of sincere explanation and persuasion, the person next door will agree to switch rooms.

"咚咚咚", the fingers with well-defined knuckles knocked on the door vigorously and rhythmically a few times, but there was no movement in the room.

Zhang Mu listened intently for a while, holding his breath, and knocked on the door again, but still no one answered.

Maybe it's inconvenient to open the door.

Thinking so, Zhang Mu went back to his room, put his hands on the window lattice, and looked out...

"you?!"

It never occurred to him that when he turned his head, he saw Xue Jinyi sitting on the window lattice unrestrainedly, looking over with bright eyes and great interest.

Zhang Mu's next thought was to turn his head away and pretend not to know him.

He didn't talk, but Xue Jinyi wasn't discouraged. He swayed his long legs, and his clothes fluttered like willow branches. He raised the wine glass in his hand and respected Zhang Mu, "What a coincidence, don't you remember?" Have we met in front of the gate of Pang's family? Xue Jinyi, may I ask your surname?"

Zhang Mu ignored it, and stared intently at Lao Ding and Scarface who were whispering in the yard.

Xue Jinyi followed his gaze, and finally found a chance to speak, "So you are also here to monitor the two people in the yard..."

Leng Leng's sword pointed straight at his throat, and he couldn't continue.

"Ai ai ai, so you are also a quiet person." After Jianfeng moved away, Xue Jinyi touched his chin, as if talking to himself in a low voice, "But compared to people who followed Cao Lv, You're more interesting."

Zhang Mu didn't hear Xue Jinyi's words, otherwise the latter would not be sitting safely on the window lattice.

After Lao Ding said a few words, he went out.

Zhang Mu clenched his saber tightly and rushed out of the room quickly. Xue Jinyi didn't move, and quietly looked at Scarface standing in the middle of the yard.

With Scar's face behind his back, he wandered around the yard twice, and went into the house to lie down.

Not long after, Zhang Mu came back, and Lao Ding also stepped into the small gate of the yard at about the same time. He probably heard a noise, and Scarface rushed out holding a knife.

"This person is really... so reckless, isn't it clear that he has a problem?" Xue Jinyi shook his head, and his bright eyes turned to Zhang Mu, whose face was as calm as still water. Let's get down to business, "Don't worry, no one has entered the yard during the time you've been away."

"Thank you." Zhang Mu said.

These two words have already made Xue Jinyi feel quite useful, and then said: "You think it's better than this, you come to live with me, and we will take turns to monitor those two people. After all, Mrs. Cao only sent you here alone, and you don't have superhuman powers." , how can you have the energy to stare at it twelve hours a day, right?"

Xue Jinyi had already jumped off the window sill. Standing by the window and bathed in the sun, he restrained his unscrupulous smile, and still looked like a handsome and handsome young man.

When Zhang Mu heard this proposal, he was slightly excited for a moment.But judging from the frivolity in Xue Jinyi's eyes that he hadn't had time to put away, he couldn't trust this person, even though the proposal did sound a bit "attractive".

"Thank you for your kindness, no need."

Xue Jinyi looked sad, "You don't trust me?"

"I only met once before. Is it too early to talk about trust?" Zhang Mu glanced at Xue Jinyi who was putting on airs, his eyes were as sharp and cold as frost, "Trust is not based on words, but on actions." .”

He said the last two words emphatically and meaningfully.

Xue Jinyi had a dazed expression, then nodded slowly, "That's right, but do you think you should at least let me know your first and last name, Guigeng this year?"

"Pa", Zhang Mu forcefully pushed half of the window open, just blocking Xue Jinyi's line of sight.

"I like this difficulty." Xue Jinyi rubbed his chin happily.

In contrast, Zhang Mu doesn't have the blessing of his relatives, no other entanglements, he is colder and harder to approach, and his martial arts are still superior to his own.Such a person is much more interesting than Pang Miao.

Xue Jinyi smiled softly, full of confidence.
