Ruan Xianbei opened the door and saw only the back of a woman. The people outside heard her voice and the noise became louder.
"Where did you come from, you bastard, how dare you stop me!"
"I knew that a shameless vixen must have been brought back! How about being seriously injured and unconscious? These are all dirty tricks!"
"I say it again, get out of here!"
Just at this moment, Ruan Xianbei's voice came from inside. Ruan Xianbei's voice was still a little hoarse and lazy after waking up from a dream. To Mu Ruojiao's ears, this was no less than throwing an explosive pack directly, and she became even more angry.
"Go away!"
If you don't agree with someone, you will start to fight. She is worthy of Miss Mu.
Mu Ruojiao's maid came back and told her the news she heard from the outer courtyard. The few fellow apprentices who went out with Xu Pei boasted about how amazing their trip was, and also revealed the identity of a junior sister Xu Pei had brought back. information.
It is said that this is the case. Like a storyteller, Senior Brother Zhao first suppressed and then raised his voice and said: "That Junior Sister was seriously injured and unconscious. Senior Brother Xu has been letting Ban Meng take care of her! We are watching very closely. We all looked at her along the way. I’ve never seen this Junior Sister look like before.”
Mu Ruojiao became anxious when she heard this. Where did the junior sister come from? ! Is there anyone in Lingxiao Villa who dares to compete with her for Xu Pei?
Isn’t this just a lie to them?
Mu Ruojiao first asked her maid to go to Xu Pei's courtyard to inquire about information. After confirming that a strange woman was indeed staying, she came directly to the door and even bought her a girl to take care of her.
If Xu Pei didn't dare to do this in Mu Ruojiao, she just happened to barge in while Xu Pei was looking for her father, and no one dared to stop her. She was stopped by a wild girl when she was almost at the door of Ruan Xianbei's room. .
How could a girl who was bought halfway be so rude?
Wei Ke pretended to be Ah Fu and stretched out her hand to block her way. This was a circular arch. As long as she stretched out her hand, Mu Ruojiao and her maid would not be able to pass through.
Wei Ke didn't want to start a fight with her just to make things worse. She had a hundred ways to deal with Miss Mu who seemed to be a little love-minded.
Her ears perked up when she heard Ruan Xianbei opening the door. Are you awake at this time? Then Mu Ruojiao cannot be allowed to see her!
While lamenting her blindness, she said with a loyal and protective look: "I was bought by Mr. Xu to take care of the girl. The girl is recovering from illness. No one is allowed to intrude without the permission of the young master."
"Young master? Brother Ah Pei told you this?" Mu Ruojiao's eyes flashed with surprise. It was not like this had happened before. She had dealt with all the women who approached her brother Ah Pei. This was still her. It was the first time I heard Xu Pei give an order saying that trespassing was not allowed.
Wei Ke said confidently: "Of course it was the Young Master's personal order. Who are you? Don't disturb the girl's recuperation."
"Who are you to dare to speak like this to the eldest lady!" Mu Ruojiao was really angry. The maid next to her stepped forward and slapped Wei Ke on the face.
Wei Ke glanced behind Mu Ruojiao, and his dodge speed was a little slower. However, judging from others, the slap came too suddenly and he might have been frightened.
The maid clearly felt that her touch was weak and did not hit her, but the woman in front of her seemed to have been hit. She tilted her body and cheeks to the side and supported herself on the stone wall next to her.
"Master." Wei Ke covered his face and shouted with his head lowered.
Mu Ruojiao immediately turned around, and Xu Pei and Hei Quan were walking towards them.
Soon the two of them walked up to them. Xu Pei, who took this scene in his eyes, glanced at the maid with a slightly warning look. The maid was so frightened by his cold gaze that she knelt on the ground.
Xu Pei didn't say anything like punishment. He just said lightly: "Miss, my adoptive father's guests live here. Isn't it a bit rude?"
Mu Ruojiao was bumped into by Xu Pei at the scene, biting her lip and said unwillingly: "Why do dad's guests stay at your place? There are so many guest rooms and empty courtyards, why do they choose to stay at your place?"
Xu Pei said slowly: "This girl has helped me save her life, and she is seriously injured. If I don't care, then I will
Who is he? "
Mu Ruojiao didn't say anything, and Xu Pei said warmly: "The weather is so hot, it's not worth it for the eldest lady to be angry and nervous over such an unreasonable thing."
If anyone else had said this to Mu Ruojiao, she would have felt that he was being mocked, but the person who said this was Xu Pei.
She pursed her lips and felt that she had lost face and was not being rude. She didn't care about the maid who was kneeling on the ground and stamped her feet and ran away.
Mu Ruojiao's figure walked out of the courtyard. Xu Pei turned to Hei Quan, tapped the maid kneeling on the ground with his chin and said to Hei Quan: "This person, whoever wants to incite the young lady, take him down."
"yes."
After hearing what he said, the maid turned pale and softened, and then kowtowed one after another and said that she was guilty, but Xu Pei turned a deaf ear, and the black dog took the person down with an expressionless expression.
Everyone in the courtyard was gone. Xu Pei looked at Wei Ke and said, "Should I say that the boss is good at acting?"
Wei Ke asked rudely: "Aren't I worried that Mr. Xu won't be able to catch the show if I avoid him?"
Xu Pei curled up his lips: "The shopkeeper is always considerate."
"Lingxiao Villa is not monolithic." Kui Ke said with a smile.
Otherwise, why would a maid incite Miss Mu to come and cause trouble?
Xu Pei ignored her words of enjoying the show and opened the door to see the girl sitting at the table drinking water.
Ruan Xianbei greeted him in a good mood when he saw him: "Long time no see, Mr. Xu."
"It hasn't been long, but I see Miss Ruan often."
Xu Pei sat down and even Wei Ke sat down. Ruan Xianbei squinted her eyes and looked at this strange woman. Her appearance was very genuine and docile. She couldn't tell if she was disguised. After a while, she confirmed it from her light brown eyes. her identity.
She laughed and said with bright eyebrows, "Shopkeeper Wei."
Wei Ke smiled at Ruan Xianbei. Xu Pei didn't come here to listen to their chat, and he didn't have time to be too subtle with her now. Xu Pei interrupted Ruan Xianbei and said, "I have already told my adoptive father. I will arrange to see you soon."
Ruan Xianbei was startled at first. He didn't know what agreement they had reached while in a coma, but Xu Pei actually said this information directly.
"Then can I see my mother?" she asked.
"No one who has entered that secret room has ever come out alive." Xu Pei said, "Even I have never seen it, and the adoptive father keeps the key with him and it is difficult to get it."
"Then the secret room has an entrance and an exit, right?" Wei Ke asked. It's impossible to have the same entrance and exit. It's too unsafe. If the place collapses or is blocked by the enemy, won't we have to be trapped underground?
"There should be, but I don't know. Only my adoptive father knows, and maybe Daochang Chen also knows." Xu Pei said calmly. Mu Huaxiao kept a close eye on this secret room. There were people guarding it inside and outside, and he didn't even get close. Close. t.
Wei Ke smiled inexplicably: "Is there something Mr. Xu doesn't know about?"
Xu Pei met her gaze: "Ashamed, after all, staying alive is important."
"What are your plans next?"
"My adoptive father's birthday is half a month later. At that time, Daozhang Chen will transport Mrs. Ruan from the underground to Siji Hall to host the resurrection ceremony. That is our last chance."
...
Half a month, Siji Hall, ceremony.
After Xu Pei finished speaking, he left, leaving only Wei Ke and Ruan Xianbei in the room.
Ruan Xianbei looked at Wei Ke and smiled: "It really makes my skin crawl when he talks about us. How did the shopkeeper reach an agreement with him?"
"Help him escape from Lingxiao Villa."
This answer made Ruan Xianbei feel a little surprised. In her heart, Xu Pei was simply Mu Huaxiao's most qualified lackey, okay? He had to handle all the things that were inconvenient for Mu Huaxiao to come forward. Why didn't he do the dirty work for him?
If you say that such a person is going to defect, it would be more credible to say that he has been bewitched.
The expression on Ruan Xianbei's face was very wonderful. She couldn't understand how things could develop like this.
Wei Ke couldn't help but laugh when he saw this.
"Shopkeeper, please tell me what happened!" She pulled Wei Ke and said.
Wei Ke looked serious: "Please call me Ah Fu now. The shopkeeper is too eye-catching."
"Okay, okay, afu, afu, this name sounds very auspicious."
Wei Ke told her what happened along the way - in fact, nothing happened.
"After you were knocked unconscious, Xu Pei was seriously injured and fell into a coma. It was difficult for him to recover from your attack on his chest, so the journey was uneventful until we almost arrived at Shuzhou City."
Although she successfully sneaked into Lingxiao Villa, she didn't expect that she would be unconscious for so long. She felt a little sick when she thought of poking her hand into Xu Pei's chest. Forget it with a sword, what did she think of using her hand?
Can you wash your hands a hundred times? She thought Xu Pei was dirty.
Ruan Xianbei looked at her right hand without words. At that time, she wanted him to experience how she felt. This was something that ordinary people really couldn't do.
Wei Ke said: "I think the disciples at Lingxiao Villa don't know anything. Those disciples along the way feel quite...innocent to me. The inhuman things Mu Huaxiao did are not I will tell the disciples below, including his daughter Mu Ruojiao."
Wei Ke paused while looking for an adjective, obviously a little embarrassed, and finally chose a complimentary word.
Ruan Xianbei said: "If what he did could be made public on his birthday, he would never be able to turn over again."
"If we think this way, he will also think that this is his territory and he will definitely be prepared."
"This is a Hongmen Banquet. Everyone knows that there is no way to avoid it. Even if they know it is a Hongmen Banquet, they have to come."
The two looked at each other, they had to find a way out in these few days.
"If we want to save my mother, we can't let him harm others like this."
Ruan Xianbei looked at Wei Ke firmly and said, "We still have to get out alive, no one can die."
Wei Ke smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm not so great that I have to sacrifice myself."
Although she has always joked that these are just role-playing games, and she dreams of defeating monsters and leveling up, she can no longer regard this place as just a game.
She had so many unexpected things, and she wanted to protect those things that were important to her.
I will take up the sword to protect those I love, and I will wield the sword to free those who are bound by their chains.
If the night is destined to fall, I will go forward bravely and use my sword to split a ray of light.
