[Comprehensive martial arts] Thief plan

As soon as Chu Liuxiang finished speaking, Xie Ling froze in disbelief, "Case closed?"

He nodded and said: "Master Leng said so, I don't know the specific situation at present."

"Then now...?"

"I'm planning to go to Jinling, and I'm afraid something will change if it's too late." He frowned indistinctly, and turned his head to look at Xie Ling, "In this case, Miss Xie won't be able to stay in Huafu any longer."

Xie Ling originally felt very embarrassed to live in someone else's house, but now hearing his tone, it seems that there are other appropriate arrangements, so naturally she doesn't mind moving a place.

Chu Liuxiang pondered for a moment and said, "I will let Hu Tiehua secretly pay attention to the movement near Zhu Ting's house. In order not to use him as a bargaining chip, Ximen Medical Center doesn't have to worry about it. As for Miss Xie, I can only ask Jiang Daxia to take him with you." His apprentice is staying at your house together, Miss Xie, what do you think?"

"Hero Jiang—"

Knowing her concern, Chu Liuxiang waved his hand, "Don't worry about Mrs. Xie, Hero Jiang, he also really wants to settle this case as soon as possible, but now this way of closing it, I'm afraid everyone can't see it."

"I know that." She scratched her head in distress, "but it's hard for him to share a room with the two children."

Chu Liuxiang really hadn't thought about this question, but now that she heard her mentioning it, she recalled that the Xie family indeed only had two rooms.

"Hero Jiang doesn't stick to trifles, so he wouldn't care if he thought about it." Chu Liuxiang said firmly.

Although Xie Ling really wanted to complain about his natural tone, she also knew that what he said was true. After all, the first time she heard about the existence of "Lu Xiaofeng's Master", she didn't know the other person's name at all, only knew Lu Xiaofeng was thrown by his master in the Yin Temple outside the city.

...it's really informal.

Although things have been arranged, it will take tonight to implement them.

Seeing that he was not in a hurry to leave overnight, Xie Ling asked again tentatively, "Xiang Shuai is leaving early tomorrow morning?"

"Send Miss Xie back tomorrow first." Just as he finished speaking, a lantern facing the two of them on the porch suddenly went out.

Xie Ling raised her head subconsciously, and happened to meet his equally dazed eyes.He raised his hand and easily took off the lantern and glanced at it, "It's just burned out, it doesn't matter."

"Oh." She responded.

Then no one spoke.Chu Liuxiang was not in a hurry to push her back to the room, and the two of them sat and stood on the porch for a while, until suddenly rain fell in the night sky.

The wind was strong at night, and the raindrops, which were originally not too big, were blown hard on the face and felt a little painful.Xie Ling woke up from the state of emptiness, and before she had time to make any movements, she felt the wheelchair under her body being pulled back.

Chu Liuxiang's voice also sounded a little distressed, "It's raining, let's go back."

She thought that this distress should not come from these few hours of rain, but probably because of the foggy agency case.

But Chu Liuxiang was Chu Liuxiang after all, and it was rare to show a moment of distress. After sending her back to the room, she had returned to her previous confident expression. Before leaving, she told her to sleep well and not to worry.

I don't know if it's because this matter has affected her normal life for a long time, Xie Ling is not really worried at the moment, anyway, it's not much worse anyway, if Jiang Xiaoyu is around, she wants to catch her The people who can't get it.

The next morning when Xie Ling woke up, the first thing she saw was not Chu Liuxiang but Huaxiyun.

Hua Xiyun didn't know that she was leaving, but came to give her wine, and invited her to have dinner with the Hua family at night, saying that she was going back to Jinling tomorrow, so she should send him off.

"Young Master Hua is too considerate, but... I am leaving today." Xie Ling could only refuse.

"Let's go?" Huaxiyun raised her eyebrows and looked at her feet, "Your injury?"

Xie Ling shook her head, "It's not a big problem. I've been bothering your house these days, and even stayed in Huafu for the new year. Master Hua doesn't care about me, so it's hard for me to stay forever."

"You don't have to be so polite." He said with a smile: "My father, the old man, has finally remembered that he was busy with business and neglected Qitong in the past few years, so he is caring for him. Qitong made friends outside, naturally it was us. friends at home."

But even if he said so, Xie Ling still had to leave. Chu Liuxiang said that something might change if it was too late, but she was actually afraid too.

"Let's do it next time." She sighed, "Young Master Hua is my benefactor. This time, the Hua family has done us a big favor. When Young Master Hua returns to Yangzhou next time, I will treat Young Master Hua to dinner."

Seeing that she had indeed made a decision, Hua Xiyun didn't insist on it, and said with a smile, "That's fine, I happen to be very curious about your cooking skills."

"Small skills, you can't make it to the lobby." Xie Ling was a little embarrassed. In her opinion, the young master who looked like this flamboyant must have entered a place like Tianxiang Tower casually on weekdays. It is estimated that he really got caught by her. Something may also disappoint.

The two chatted for a while, and then Chu Liuxiang came over from the other side room, holding Xie Xing who was not fully awake yet still a little confused.

When Xie Xing saw Huaxiyun, he still remembered that this was his good friend's brother, so he opened his mouth and called out Brother Hua.

His dazed appearance was much cuter than usual, even Hua Xiyun couldn't help but reached out and touched his head, asking, "Ah Xing didn't sleep well?"

"Uh...it's okay." In front of Xie Ling, he still didn't dare to say it was because last night he insisted on pestering Chu Liuxiang to teach him several tricks.

But Xie Ling is not stupid, she guessed it from his sleepy and guilty expression, but she felt that there was no point in obstructing him any more.

Since the danger is not only unavoidable but also will take the initiative to find the door, as Chu Liuxiang said, the most important thing is to let him have the ability to save his life.

"I'll take Miss Xie back later, I don't know if this wheelchair—"

Before Chu Liuxiang finished speaking, Hua Xiyun had already answered, "Her legs are not healed yet, so the wheelchair will naturally go back with her."

"Then thank you, Mr. Hua." Chu Liuxiang graciously accepted Xie Ling's kindness, "In addition, I would also like to thank Mr. Hua for your hospitality these few days."

"It's our honor for Xiangshuai to come to your residence."

"I can't say that. It's a great honor for me to meet the rumored youngest official minister since the founding of the country."

After listening to Chu Liuxiang's words, Xie Ling knew what kind of official Hua Manlou said "elder brother is an official in Jinling". She was so surprised that she almost didn't close her mouth, "The official minister?"

"So Miss Xie doesn't know?" Chu Liuxiang asked with raised eyebrows.

Xie Ling: No one told me? ? ?

Hua·Xi Yun, the youngest servant of the official department, looked at her expression full of disbelief and couldn't hold back her smile, "Are you so surprised?"

"Yes...it's a bit." Xie Ling was very embarrassed, "After all, Playboy is so young."

And according to what Hua Manlou said, he went to Jinling to rush for the exam five years ago, and it took him five years to go from an examinee to a servant of the Ministry of officials. Is this simply unbelievable? !Not to mention that he was born in a family of merchants.

But after being surprised and thinking about it carefully, the Hua family, a merchant's family, is still fundamentally different from ordinary merchants' families.No matter how light on merchants, for merchants who are as rich as Hua Ruling, others will naturally not care about their status as "merchants".

"I'll take it as a compliment from you." Hua Xiyun stopped laughing, "Since you have decided to leave, I don't want to force others, but I remember what you said earlier."

Xie Ling nodded hurriedly, "That's natural. When Playboy comes back next time, I will take care of him."

Before leaving, Hua Manlou also came over. Xie Ling liked the child very much, so she invited him to come and play when he was free.Huamanlou happily agreed, and sent the three of them to the gate of Huafu before stopping.

Holding the wine given by Huaxiyun in Xie Ling's hand, she felt a little emotional, and seeing Xie Xing with a tired face, she couldn't help admonishing her: "Look, there is still a way to go if you study hard, even if you go to Huaxiyun Young Master, this level is definitely hopeless, but he always praised me that if you study hard, you will have no problem becoming a Jinshi in the future."

Xie Xing looked desperate: "Sister, I haven't even passed the exam for a scholar..."

"It's always good to have a dream."

"This dream is too far away!"

Chu Liuxiang pushed the wheelchair brought out from Hua's house behind her, just smiled and listened to the two of them talking without speaking, and walked all the way to the Ximen Medical Center where the gate was closed, and then pondered: "By the way, Miss Xie Don’t go to the doctor’s office anymore.”

Xie Ling was speechless, how worried was Chu Liuxiang about her? !It's not that she can't tell the difference, she can't lose her life for salary at a time like this.

Not to mention the time of the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, it is still unknown whether the medical center will be open or not.

But Chu Liuxiang's reminder was kind after all, so she nodded in response, "I know."

When the three of them arrived home, Jiang Xiaoyu and Lu Xiaofeng were already waiting there. Unlike Xie Xing who was listless, Lu Xiaofeng was very energetic. When he saw her, he rushed over and rubbed her twice before reaching out to poke Xie Xing. Star's face, "...you were a thief last night?"

Xie Xing was fighting the Sandman to the death, not even in the mood to argue with him, so he yawned, "Yes, yes."

Seeing that he was really sleepy, Xie Ling reached out and patted his shoulder, "Okay, go to sleep, remember to change a quilt for yourself, I haven't been back for a while."

"Okay." Xie Xing nodded in response.

After he entered, Chu Liuxiang turned his head to look at Jiang Xiaoyu, and said, "I will entrust all matters here to Hero Jiang."

Jiang Xiaoyu stood by, but he still couldn't change his sloppy manner, he only pulled half of his mouth to show a smile, "Xiang Shuai entrusted me, of course I dare not be serious."

"I'm relieved to have Jiang Daxia's words." After Chu Liuxiang finished speaking, she looked down at Xie Ling again, "I have to go to meet Master Leng, miss Xie take care."

Xie Ling nodded, "Bon voyage."

Probably, as he said, things might change in case of delay, after a simple farewell, Chu Liuxiang left.

Sitting in a wheelchair, Xie Ling watched the man's hurried back and sighed.

She naturally hoped that this matter would be resolved as soon as possible, not to mention that Yingying would not affect her life with Xie Xing, just that she owed so much favor to Chu Liuxiang and might continue to owe it gave her a very headache.

Although she knew that Chu Liuxiang helped her so much not only because he accepted Xie Xing as an apprentice, but also because he had such a personality.

It is precisely because of this that he can be respected by so many friends and enemies.

"Oh, why did I forget to ask him to give me the wine first!" Lu Xiaofeng slapped his head, "Mistake!"

Xie Ling was brought back to her senses by his sound, turned her head to look at the pair of master and apprentice, and said, "Come in and sit down?"

Lu Xiaofeng immediately volunteered to help her push the wheelchair, and asked her while walking in, "My master said that the case that Chu Liuxiang is investigating has not been completed yet?"

"Yes." She said helplessly, "Otherwise I don't want to bother your master."

Jiang Xiaoyu waved his hand, "It's nothing to worry about, I'm curious anyway."

"Curiosity about what?" Lu Xiaofeng was puzzled.

Xie Ling also looked at him suspiciously, but he just glanced at them and smiled without saying a word.

After all, she was not familiar with her, and it was difficult for her to continue to ask under the other party's reaction.

The tables and chairs in the house were all dusty, Xie Ling thought she would entertain people, at least she had to clean up first, but when she looked down and saw her feet, she was immediately discouraged.

Looking at her expression, Lu Xiaofeng guessed what she was thinking, "Sister Ah Ling, you are not well yet, so don't worry about it."

"Yeah, I can't tell Xiangshuai if you're too busy to do something good or bad." Jiang Xiaoyu reached out and brushed the dust on the table, and blew on those two fingers quite casually, "Just leave this to me Forget it as an apprentice, it would be good to make him worthy of so many meals."

Xie Ling wanted to say no, but Lu Xiaofeng was the first to answer, "Okay, Master is right, let me do it."

For children before the age of 15, the change in stature is visible to the naked eye every year. Xie Ling has seen him too many times so she doesn't feel deeply, but she is surprised when he picks up the broom and sweeps the floor seriously. Seems to have grown a lot taller.

Thanks to having started practicing martial arts early on, Lu Xiaofeng has much more physical strength than ordinary children.He went up and down to help her clean the house, without any ambiguity.

At the end, she still raised her sweaty little face and begged for praise. Xie Ling's heart almost melted, and she took out a handkerchief from her bosom to wipe his sweat, "Thank you for your hard work."

"It's not hard work!" After all, he is well versed in how to get along with girls. While asking for credit, he didn't take the initiative to say that he was tired, and even praised her, "It's hard work because my sister has always taken care of me like this. It should be!"

He was acting cute and begging for hugs here, but Jiang Xiaoyu, the master, just snorted, "You don't cry tired when you are courting girls."

"Wow, Master, you're really going too far." He rubbed Xie Ling's leg and made a face at Jiang Xiaoyu.

"Am I wrong?" Jiang Xiaoyu asked lazily, "I don't know why you think you go to Ximen Medical Center every day these days?"

When he said this, Xie Ling couldn't help but recall the scene when Lu Xiaofeng made Chong Qi giggle the first time he saw her.

"Obviously I had a friendly sparring with Ximen Chuuxue." Lu Xiaofeng rolled his eyes, "However, he has only officially used the sword for a long time, and he is actually so powerful."

"If you spend less time being courteous to girls, you will be great." Jiang Xiaoyu said sincerely.

"Don't bring such a thing! Chu Liuxiang is also very courteous to girls, not very good!" He was very dissatisfied.

Xie Ling burst out laughing, stretched out her hand to poke Lu Xiaofeng's dimple, "You are already very good, and you will be even better in the future."

Lu Xiaofeng pushed her hard and rubbed her twice again, with watery eyes, "Sister Ah Ling is the best!"

After talking nonsense for a while, Xie Ling learned from Jiang Xiaoyu that when she was in Hua's house, Chu Liuxiang had already taken out the assassins of the past several times.

Jiang Xiaoyu probably didn't expect that she didn't know about it at all, "Didn't Xiangshuai tell you?"

"... Maybe it's pointless to tell me." Xie Ling shrugged, "After all, I can't help at all, I can only hold him back."

"If he really thinks that way, why bother to ask me." Jiang Xiaoyu sighed, "There are rumors in the world that Chu Liuxiang has his confidante wherever he goes, and now it seems that—"

Xie Ling: "... Hero Jiang, you have misunderstood."

Jiang Xiaoyu: "You mean you are his confidante?"

Xie Ling: "...No."

Jiang Xiaoyu smiled slyly: "Then what did I say wrong?"

Fortunately, after he finished speaking, he changed the subject in a timely manner, and talked about his apprentice again.

Xie Ling sat there watching the quarrel between the master and the apprentice, and the previous depressed mood was swept away.

The crux of the debate was still that Jiang Xiaoyu disliked this apprentice who spent all his time chasing girls.

Lu Xiaofeng didn't refute directly anymore, and he couldn't let go of the sentence that he was lured into being this person's apprentice, "You lied to me before that you knew Xiao Li Feidao!"

"Oh." Jiang Xiaoyu was unmoved, "Didn't you say that you met Ye Kai before, it's not too late to worship him as a teacher now."

"I don't want to learn this!" Lu Xiaofeng was furious.

This time Jiang Xiaoyu's expression became a little more serious, "Then what do you think?"

"I adore him, he is my goal, I want to beat him!"

If Chu Liuxiang was present, he would definitely find this sentence quite familiar.It's a pity that Xie Ling felt inexplicable after hearing this, "Win him?"

"Xiao Li Feidao has never missed a shot." Jiang Xiaoyu explained: "This kid has always dreamed of creating a weapon that is more accurate than Xiao Li Feidao."

...isn't it right? !Shouldn't he be committed to holding Xiao Li Feidao between his fingers? ? ?

"But I guess he can only dream in this life."

"Hmph." Lu Xiaofeng turned his face away and ignored him.

"Don't be dissatisfied." Jiang Xiaoyu paused, "Besides, even if you do it, in the eyes of ordinary people, you won't be better than Xiao Li Feidao."

"How could it be?!" Without being able to hold back for a while, Lu Xiaofeng turned his face back.

"No matter how powerful this type of weapon is, it's nothing more than an example. People think that you are as powerful as him at best, and maybe you are just trying to imitate them. To make people think that you are stronger than him—" he chuckled softly, "It's better to think about how to make it impossible to fail."

Lu Xiaofeng's eyes lit up.

Xie Ling was dumbfounded, did she witness the source of inspiration for the skill of Consonance One Finger? ? ?
