She subconsciously looked up and saw a tightly wrapped man in black robe hanging upside down under the eaves.
He stretched out his hands into claws, trying to catch himself.
The defenseless Jiang Nianjiao had no time to escape or scream.
She thought that her life would be in the hands of this person, but at the same time, a burst of sword light flashed above her head, and the man in black robe only shrank subconsciously, and as he shrank his hand, that The young man in black clothes and mask holding a long sword pushed Jiang Nianjiao into the room with just one palm.
At the same time, he only warned in a cold voice, "Close the door."
Jiang Nianjiao walked between life and death, but her reaction was quite quick.
After the man asked her to close the door, she immediately closed the door tightly.
Seeing this, the black-robed man quickly made a move to grab Jiang Nianjiao, but the young man was already fighting with him.
The black robe couldn't avoid it and could only get entangled with the young man.
Although Jiang Nianjiao hid indoors, she was not idle. After briefly calming down her frightened mood, she couldn't help but worry about the young man.
So she just used scissors to poke a small hole in the paper on the door, and then she just poked out of the house through the hole.
Outside the courtyard, the young man holding the sword and the man in black robe were fighting fiercely. The man in black robe obviously did not want to fight after the young man holding the sword appeared.
He would fight and retreat, if it weren't for the young man's entanglement.
Perhaps this battle should have ended long ago.
Seeing that he couldn't get rid of the young man, he just reached out and grabbed a white jade token from the young man's waist. The young man subconsciously wanted to protect the jade token. The man in black robe immediately threw a handful of powder in the young man's face.
The young man had no time to stop him in the future, but was only hit by the powder.
Then the man in black robe turned around and left Qinglan Courtyard.
When the young man finally opened his eyes, the figure of the man in black robe was nowhere to be seen in the yard.
The young man in black sheathed his sword, feeling uneasy in his heart.
He was slacking off today, but he failed to discover the person who wanted to do harm to the eldest daughter of the Jiang family earlier.
It also caused the thief to almost kill Ms. Jiang. Although he took action in time and Miss Jiang's life was safe, he had just appeared in front of Miss Jiang and could not catch the culprit.
I don’t know what the master would do to him if he knew what he was doing today.
He stood up and prepared to leave the courtyard,
However, Jiang Nianjiao opened the door at this moment and shouted, "Wait!"
When the young man suddenly saw Jiang Nianjiao, he felt as if he had seen a ghost.
"Girl, why don't you hide in the house." The young man deliberately lowered his voice.
Jiang Nianjiao said, "I came out after seeing him leave."
The young man was speechless for a moment. He only looked at Jiang Nianjiao anxiously.
He was afraid that Jiang Nianjiao would investigate his identity carefully.
However, Jiang Nianjiao said, "You are so skilled in martial arts, can you do me a favor?"
The young man was stunned for a moment, and then subconsciously said, "What do you want to help me with?"
Jiang Nianjiao said quickly, "My maid Cuiqiao is seriously injured. She seems to have been poisoned by Qiang Desert voodoo. I am now in confinement and cannot get out. Can you help me to the end and send my maid to someone who can treat her?" go."
Hearing Jiang Nianjiao's request, the young man was even more stunned. Shouldn't ordinary people ask who they are at this time?
When she disagreed, she asked herself to send her maid to seek medical treatment.
He didn't know for a moment whether he should say that this girl was too big-hearted for anyone to believe her, or that she was too shameless for anyone to ask for help.
However, Jiang Nianjiao was already urging him to come into the house to help move people.
"What are you still doing? Come in quickly. Don't worry, the benefits will not be lost to you!"
When the young man heard this, he calmed down and whispered, "Girl, I couldn't catch that person just now. I was afraid that he would come back again."
Jiang Nianjiao curled her lips and said, "Don't worry, we have already alerted him. He won't dare to come again. If he comes again, I will have a way to deal with him."
Then she just waved to the man and said, "Okay, help me come in and save people. I'm afraid something will happen to Cuiqiao if it's too late."
The young man has been monitoring Jiang Nianjiao during this period, so he naturally knows how important this Cuiqiao is to Jiang Nianjiao.
Although he seems to be suspected of being used as a labor porter from a secret guard, he has already made a mistake and does not care about making another mistake.
So the young man gritted his teeth, and then hugged Cuiqiao on the bed.
I have to say that this young man's kung fu is indeed amazing. Jiang Nianjiao watched with great relief as the young man took Cui Qiao away.
…
As night fell, the young man returned to Qinglan Courtyard exhausted both physically and mentally.
It had to be said that it was really hard to find a witch doctor. He spent a lot of effort to find a witch doctor who said he could cure her.
However, after finding the witch doctor, he discovered that he had no money. After a lot of lobbying, he tried his best to get the witch doctor to agree to come and pay tomorrow.
As for Cuiqiao, she was naturally placed directly with the witch doctor.
At this time, the lights were on in the Qinglan courtyard, the courtyard door was wide open, but there was not a single maid.
Jiang Nianjiao was sitting on a wooden stool in the outer room. She rested her chin on her hand as if waiting for someone.
Although the young man saw Jiang Nianjiao at a glance, thinking that his identity was almost exposed today, he decided to remain silent and mute.
He only lived in the shade of a dense tree. As the dusk fell, he had the cover of night, so he didn't have to worry about being found.
As for Jiang Nianjiao, he thought she might be waiting for him, but maybe she would go back to the inner room to rest without waiting for news.
However, Jiang Nianjiao waited like this for a while, until it got dark before getting up. He originally thought that Jiang Nianjiao had finally given up.
Jiang Nianjiao didn't want to, but she just walked out of the courtyard with the oil lamp.
She first looked around aimlessly by the light. After she couldn't find any suspicious figure with her naked eyes, she turned in the opposite direction and asked, "Master, are you there? How is Cuiqiao? Can you tell me?" "
Although Jiang Nianjiao deliberately lowered her voice, she couldn't stop shouting like this over and over again.
The young man was afraid that Jiang Nianjiao would create a big trap for him and make more people aware of his existence, so he had no choice but to show up.
"Girl, I'm behind you." The young man patted Jiang Nianjiao on the shoulder.
However, Jiang Nianjiao was suddenly tapped on the shoulder and was so frightened that she almost broke the lamp.
Fortunately, the young man had quick eyes and quick hands and caught the lamp.
He looked at Jiang Nianjiao helplessly and said, "Girl, I've already asked the witch doctor to look at Miss Cuiqiao. If nothing unexpected happens, she should be back by herself tomorrow."
The young man thought quite simply. It should be no problem for Cuiqiao to wake up and pay for herself tomorrow.
After all, as far as he knew, this girl had benefited a lot from Jiang Nianjiao, and when she woke up, she wouldn't be unable to pay for the medical bills.
When Jiang Nianjiao got the affirmative answer, she naturally felt a little more relaxed.
She took out a jade pendant from her sleeve and handed it to the young man, saying, "This is a favor fee."
The young man was slightly startled, but he did not expect that the benefits Jiang Nianjiao said were really beneficial.
However, he did not dare to randomly accept Jiang Nianjiao's things. After all, in the young man's perception, Jiang Nianjiao was equal to his master's woman.
Unfortunately, when the young man was about to refuse, Jiang Nianjiao directly put the jade pendant into the young man's hand, "Take it as long as you want, I won't tell you Master!"
Hearing Jiang Nianjiao's words, the young man was obviously taken aback.
So she knows her identity.
Jiang Nianjiao only thought that the man's silly expression was funny. Although he was not wearing the clothes of a secret guard, the jade pendant that the man in black robe grabbed when he attacked him just now was something she had seen on Zhao Yanzhen's secret guards.
In addition, Zhao Yanzhen was suspicious by nature and was reborn. Jiang Nianjiao could guess that this secret guard should be Zhao Yanzhen's person without even thinking about it.
But she didn't have much objection to this. After all, even if she did, she couldn't twist her thigh with her arms.
And under Zhao Yanzhen's nose, as long as he didn't do anything detrimental to him. Zhao Yanzhen probably wouldn't want to do anything to himself.
Besides, now that he has a ready-made bodyguard, his personal safety can be guaranteed in multiple ways.
Jiang Nianjiao blinked at him and said, "Don't worry, I won't tell your master what happened today. You can continue to stay here."
"Of course, if you think today's reward is not enough, you can go to my warehouse and get more. After all, you saved my life today and Cui Qiao's life. This thing is really not enough to express your gratitude for saving our lives." Deep gratitude.”
After finishing her words, Jiang Nianjiao shook the key to the small vault in her hand.
Seeing Miss Jiang trying to hit him with money, the secret guard always felt that the other party had other plans, so he waved his hands and ran away quickly.
Jiang Nianjiao saw the young man jumping up the tree, but still did not let him go.
She just asked the young man on the tree, "What's your name? I can't always call you hello when I see you in the future."
The young man sitting on the tree looked like an old monk in meditation, but his heart was very confused.
It was an accident to show up today, but according to Jiang Nianjiao's words, she had the intention to continue to use her.
For a moment, the young man didn't know whether he should hide the secret from his master or not.
However, Jiang Nianjiao was still chattering to herself under the tree.
Forced by helplessness, the young man could only say, "I don't have a name."
"How can a person not have a name? If you don't have a name, I can name you whatever you want." Jiang Nianjiao squatted under the tree and said.
"Whatever you want." The young man said coldly.
He does not have a name. They have been in the secret guard camp for as long as they can remember. They have no parents, only a master. The master teaches them to practice martial arts, obey orders from their superiors, and maintain so-called loyalty. Even the master only calls them by numbers, he is thirteen.
Of course, there is no need to tell this to the girl below.
He thought the people under the tree had made a fuss and had already left.
Just as he was thinking that it was finally quiet, he heard Jiang Nianjiao's voice suddenly sounded again under the tree.
"If you don't say your name, then I'll call you Xiaohei. Anyway, you wear black clothes all day long."
Hearing Jiang Nianjiao's random name, Thirteen felt a black line on his forehead.
Those who don’t know may think that Jiang Nianjiao is calling someone’s dog.
After thinking about it for a while, Thirteen finally couldn't bear it anymore and said, "I am ranked Thirteen, just call me Thirteen."
After getting the answer I wanted, it was finally quiet under the tree.
However, at this time, the naive Thirteen had no idea that this was the beginning of his nightmare.
