The sky turned overcast, and a dark cloud slowly came from the southeast, threatening to rain. The woman led the way, followed by a few steps behind, and not far behind were two armored soldiers.
Qi Moyan's deliberate arrangement did not stop him. Even at midnight, he was also thinking about having someone go back to report if there was an emergency.
The streets were empty, but there were some people in the houses on both sides of the street with their windows open and chatting at the top of their lungs. Apparently, the unprovoked closure of the city did not arouse their dissatisfaction, nor did the fight on the street in front of the house last night attract their attention.
On the city wall in the distance, you can vaguely see figures shaking. The first rule of joining the army is to stick to your post. This group of soldiers who have been restless all night is also working hard.
Ye Sangen, who was following from a distance, suddenly took two steps quickly. The distance of more than ten feet quickly shortened, and he narrowed the distance between him and the woman. He suddenly said, "Are you from your mother's family?" The woman moved forward slightly slowly. , turned slightly sideways, thinking that it must be because of these long contacts, the woman lost her shyness at the beginning, and answered: "My mother's family has lived in Fenghuang Mountain City for generations, and even the daughter of the common people has never left." Ye. Midnight
"Oh" he said, and then asked: "Is it possible to tell me what kind of work my mother-in-law does?" Ye San asked more carefully, but the woman did not hide anything and said: "I have been farming for generations, and I also do some things with my mother in my spare time. Handicrafts help subsidize the family income." Another voice came out at midnight.
"Oh," he added, "How many people are there in the family?"
"Four." The woman had no doubt that he was there and patiently answered all questions. When they happened to reach an alley, the woman stopped and said, "It's right inside." In the middle of the night, he first looked past the woman to the depths of the alley, then turned and walked towards the two soldiers, who hurriedly greeted her.
Ye Sangen whispered: "You go back first and wait for a quarter of an hour for Captain Qin to bring someone over." Although they didn't know why, the two of them still followed the order.
The woman glanced back without a trace, a hint of joy appearing on her face. The two soldiers left, and the woman walked into the alleyway on her own. Ye Sangen walked a few steps closer and followed the woman. The earthen walls on both sides were very mottled. Ye Sangen was still a few steps away, not too far, not too close. .
The woman took the initiative to turn around this time, and when she saw Midnight Looking around, she introduced: "This is the oldest private house in the city. It has become dilapidated over time, and most of them have moved to the east." Midnight just said
He said "Oh" but said no other words. The woman continued to move forward. The alley was quite deep and winding, but at the end there was a cave with hidden willows and flowers.
Several families were surrounding a pond, and an old willow tree had just turned green. A gust of breeze stirred up an early-returning migratory bird in the branches, fluttering its wings and then falling down again.
"Just here." He suddenly said in the middle of the night without any clue,
"This place is quite suitable for an ambush." The woman turned around in surprise and looked at Ye Sangen, who was four feet away and looked calm. Her almond-shaped eyes widened as if she didn't understand, and she asked doubtfully: "What do you mean, sir?" Ye Sangen said. Geng did not directly answer the other party's question, but asked: "Tell me, who are you, and are you and Ningzhi Yubilan Po together?" The woman was stunned at first, and her expression gradually relaxed, replaced by a profound and unpredictable look. Smile.
In the middle of the night, I discovered that this woman's every frown and smile were irresistible and seductive. Biting the tip of his tongue, Ye Sangeng said: "Actually, I didn't see any flaws at first. To put it bluntly, as soon as I came into contact, I was really confused by your submissive appearance. After all, I love beauty. Everyone has this desire, let alone a beautiful woman like you." I don't know if this is sarcasm, but in fact, even though she is wearing coarse clothes, upon closer inspection, she can't hide the beautiful woman's smile. "Sir, are you praising me?" Ye San smiled and shook his head.
"I don't dare, I don't dare, the girl is so beautiful, even if I don't have to say it, I will make people covet her." The woman seemed a little disgusted by her slutty expression, and the pair of chundai wrinkled in a very beautiful arc, and she said with disdain: "Shameless." When I think about it, this is the first time I have been evaluated like this. Back then, when I was fighting with the princes of the princes in the capital, no one ever said that I was a playboy and a rogue. Now I am just exposing it. Why is this good-looking woman's secret so praised?
Midnight's smile gradually faded, and she said: "Okay, I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you. Let's talk about it. Are you the helper invited by Ningzhiyu or the companion invited by Bilan Po?" The woman was stunned again, facing the man in front of her. This was the first time she had heard the two names spoken by the official whom she thought she was talking about, but as smart as she was, she could more or less guess what the other person was saying after they sneaked into Phoenix City last night based on the merchant's fingerprints. Who it refers to.
The woman said with relief: "Those two women are not worthy." Ye San didn't say anything, and he was noncommittal, whether it was his evaluation of those two women, or the person opposite him with such exquisite features that even if he faced Ye Xiayou every day, he still couldn't help but want more. A woman who takes a few glances.
After opening the conversation, the woman relaxed a little for a while. She paced back and forth and asked, "How did you find out?" Ye Sangen didn't hide anything, and said with a smile, "You girl, you exposed it." There are too many places, and you look like a lady at first glance. How can you be dressed like a village woman?" As he spoke, he pointed at the woman's coarse clothes and said, "Your clothes are easy to talk about, although it is not. It is suitable for a country girl, but have you ever seen any housewives who teach etiquette so thoroughly? It's not that they don't teach it, it's mainly because they don't understand it. When you saw Qi Moyan, you were so polite. I guess ordinary little girls would be more polite when they see an official. You have to kneel down." In the middle of the night, he started to cross his arms again and look at the woman's expression. He acted like a dandy criticizing the top geisha in the audience, and said: "Look at how natural you are now, at least there is something in every move of your hands and feet. Your calmness is not as rigid as those of the ladies, but it is still decent. If you think about the way you were just now, you played the cowardice of the common people to the fullest, but you just acted too much, making people feel a little fake. I have a Little sister from the mountains, she is just delicate, not submissive." Ye Sangen raised his chin and nodded at the woman's hands, and said: "Moreover, what kind of manual work can make you grow calluses on your little finger? What kind of farm work do you do with such beautifully manicured nails? My sister has also played the piano since she was a child, and her hands are much better than yours." After each sentence, the woman's expression became a little angry.
In the bustling and prosperous countryside of the capital, every man looks at his own face, and who dares to judge him?
The woman who was quite confident in her appearance looked sideways at midnight and was about to speak. Unexpectedly, the man who left a very bad impression on her added another sentence.
"Besides, your lotus step is not something that a country girl should do. Country girls with a butt like yours must either have given birth to a child, or they have been sedentary for a long time..." But before the third night of the night was finished, the woman held her hand. A flash of cold light struck directly at the door at midnight.
Having already been extra careful in the middle of the night, he tiptoed and quickly retreated by more than ten feet, narrowly avoiding the sudden attack.
It was just completely unexpected that the cold light that was as fast as lightning flickered in the middle of the night. It strangely drew an incredible angle, turned around and struck again at midnight.
This was really a surprise. In the middle of the night, his feet immediately stopped, his arms were spread wide like an eagle's wings, his upper body was almost bent, and in the blink of an eye, a sharp whistle passed almost close to the tip of his nose, and a red rope disappeared suddenly.
But before he could react, Ye Sangen, who already knew the opponent's weapon in his heart, put more force on his feet and quickly followed the cold light before he got up.
The woman sneered, snorted heavily in her nose, pulled back, and the red rope rebounded under the force, and the weird dagger with curved ends swirled towards the late night man who should have no chance to dodge.
Nothing is absolute. In the middle of the night, he bent his knees, and his body was almost close to the ground. He turned his hands into palms and just clapped them. He moved to one side under the surprised look of the woman, and then he raised his foot and kicked the two-handed curling knife in the lightning flash. dagger, follow the way you came, and return the same way.
I don't know if it was out of sympathy or not, but Ye San Geng's retaliation did not end with a fatal blow. He just kicked the weird dagger back, but the strength and accuracy were slightly lacking.
His body swirled on the spot like the dagger, and then the powerful breath in his body came out from his palms. He stood firmly on the spot, steadied his body and looked at the woman who skillfully caught the dagger with a smile, and asked: "Xu Madam?" Of course it wasn't the woman's name that was called. She looked at the strange short blade in the woman's hand with a playful expression in the middle of the night.
The woman frowned, and said that this dagger was not a big deal. The whole world knew and could name only a handful of people, not only because of its weird shape, but also because of the secrets involved. This dagger involved Everything is too secretive.
In the middle of the night, he stood up and had no intention of taking action. He asked, "I haven't asked the girl for her name yet."
"Two or three." The woman didn't hide it, holding the long red rope. This was her preparation before taking action.
The red rope trembles and generates cold air, and controlling the knife can kill people. But the other party said it again
The question of "Knife Catcher" made the woman a little surprised. The third night of the night said calmly: "Hundreds of years ago, the swordsmith Xu Gong forged a strange dagger shaped like a sheep's horn with two curved ends. It attracted people in the world to fight for it. In the end, even the imperial court got involved and thought it was a dagger. What an incredible magic weapon. Later, Duke Xu was unfortunately killed in a rough fight. It was his wife who took this dagger to avenge him. Later generations called this dagger Mrs. Xu. It is said that the reason why this knife is like this The reason why it is so popular is not only the unique shape that is unique in the past, but also the sharpness of this knife. The cold air emitted by the blade can hurt people. Although it is a legend, I know it is false, but if it is The wound caused by this knife actually caused a burst of energy to break through the body and invade the meridians and internal organs, making the injured worse than death. After being tortured for a period of time, he would either die or... just die." Self-proclaimed Ersan, even if The woman with make-up and still attractive eyes asked in astonishment: "How do you know?" Ye San did not answer her, and continued: "This dagger later disappeared among the people. It was stolen by the great Zhou Dynasty man more than 20 years ago. Lord Ye, who is very good at fighting with people, accidentally got it and gave it to Han Gu, the commander of the knife catcher. I don't know if I am right?" The second and third eyebrows frowned slightly, regarding the identity of the man they were assassinated in the intelligence. There was a trace of doubt.
There will always be notifications from a mysterious person every now and then. He never mentions his name, just his gender, and reports his whereabouts. The last piece of information shows that this person has arrived in Phoenix City, Guozhou, and is secretly colluding with bandits to disturb the stability of the city. It’s just that he can’t see it at the moment. Come on, this person knows too much, right?
The woman asked: "Who are you?" At midnight, he did not answer the woman's question, but said to himself: "Two, three, two, three, there is a Fan Tower in the capital, where beauties can be paired with wine. Two cups will make you unaware, but three cups will make you happy." , Just think about the spring night and forget about tomorrow's porridge. Miss Ersan, please change this outfit back and let me grow eyes, and I will tell you who I am."
"You're a disciple!" The woman's eyebrows seemed to be standing upright.
"Song Li, don't do it yet!"
"The wind is blowing hard!" There was a sudden sound of wind on the roof of a house behind the midnight watch, and a figure was rising and moving away.
The woman stared, her already beautiful almond-shaped eyes widened even more, and scolded: "Song Li, you bastard, make me..." But before she could finish scolding, she saw the man in front of her who had been smiling and didn't know it until now. The man whose name was unknown turned around and chased after her. He disappeared with just one breath at such a speed, leaving only the woman standing there blankly.
"Which...where is this from?" The woman looked surprised, staring blankly at the two people who had disappeared long ago. Her big eyes flickered, which made people feel even more cute.
