"What?"
Chi Yuxian was surprised and looked at Huamanlou in disbelief, as if he had heard wrong just now.
From the tone just now, Hua Manlou could roughly guess what the other party was thinking, so he repeated that sentence again.
"Why?"
Chi Yuxian really felt strange. He raised his hand and touched his nose, feeling a little uncomfortable.
"You are very powerful, but now it seems like you have built a beautiful pavilion without laying the foundation. If you are not careful, it will collapse."
Hua Manlou was helpless: "I haven't thought much about this matter right now. What if something goes wrong..."
He hadn't finished speaking, but Chi Yuxian could already guess what the other person was thinking.
"I'm really going to trouble you this time."
Chi Yuxian shook his head and refused: "But I was thinking about this matter just now. Don't worry, I will find a way to solve it."
After that, maybe because he was worried that his rejection was too blunt, he added: "Thank you."
The thank you this time was very moving. Huamanlou seemed to hear the sound of melting glaciers, but when he wanted to explore carefully, that feeling disappeared without a trace.
Chi Yuxian said it was a lie to say that he was indifferent. After all, Huamanlou had indeed helped him a lot, and she helped him sincerely.
"good."
Huamanlou didn't force it, and after hearing the other party noticed this, she didn't say anything else.
After talking about this matter, Chi Yuxian really started to think of a way to solve the matter. At first, he wanted to use the system to copy and paste. After all, the exercises can be copied and pasted, so why not the basics?
But the next moment he realized the shortcomings of the method and had to give up.
Early the next morning, when Hua Manlou opened the door, she found Chi Yuxian doing morning exercises in the yard.
He wasn't sure how the other party found a solution, but at least it was solved.
In fact, Chi Yuxian's solution was similar to the previous one. He copied and pasted many techniques. Although each technique was different, the basics were still similar.
It was like he was sorting out ideas for solving problems from countless sets of test questions.
Huamanlou listened to the sounds downstairs, with a faint smile on her face, and the gentleness of spring breeze between her eyebrows.
Sunshine and gentle breeze.
Chi Yuxian put away the moon-moving knife in his hand, turned sideways and looked up to see Hua Manlou standing by the railing. He was dressed in graceful clothes, like an immortal from Feng Xu Yufeng.
"Did I disturb you?"
He glanced at the time and saw that it was still a while before the usual time to get up.
"No."
Hua Manlou shook her head and then went downstairs.
They were just about to go to the city to have breakfast, but before they could step out of the gate of Baihua Building, a young man dressed as a servant walked in.
After seeing Hua Manlou, the other party greeted him respectfully, and then bent slightly in the direction of Chi Yuxian, which was regarded as hello.
"Son."
Huamanlou heard who it was, so she wanted the other party to wait for a while in Baihualou.
"Is there something important?" Chi Yuxian asked, "How about I go to the city? What do you want to eat?"
"What if you are alone..."
"I'll take it to catch the moon."
Chi Yuxian raised his hand and shook the scimitar in his hand, his tone was calm and not indifferent.
"Okay, be safe."
Hua Manlou nodded slightly, understanding that the other party had something close to him.
Seeing that he agreed, Chi Yuxian left Baihua Building with an umbrella in one hand and a knife in the other.
"Sir, the matter you asked me to check has been settled."
The boy followed Hua Manlou to the study and told him everything he had learned.
The woman in red that Chi Yuxian met that night was named Chen Tiansi. She was just eighteen years old. A month ago, she accidentally fell down the hillside and hit her head, and died on the spot.
Her father, Chen An, raised money to bury her. Who would have thought that not long after the burial, he climbed out of the coffin and knocked on the door of his home in the middle of the night.
Although this incident was too weird, Chen An, who loved her daughter as much as her life, still accepted the reality that her deceased daughter had come back to life again, and was busy taking care of her.
This matter was spread by people who saw Chen Tiansi at the door of her home the next day. After all, everyone watched the burial at first, but now she is alive and kicking, so the rumor of haunting spread.
Not long ago, Chi Yu was walking on the street and heard that the person mentioned by the vendors was none other than Chen Tiansi.
Huamanlou frowned slightly after hearing this, feeling that this matter was not as simple as it appeared on the surface.
This investigation, instead of finding out the truth of the matter, fell into a fog.
*
Chi Yuxian didn't know these things yet. He was walking on the road holding an umbrella. Not long after walking, he found that there were many more people on the official road today.
Although people usually pass by the official road, it has never been so lively as today, with all kinds of carriages almost forming a queue.
There are also some carriages whose owners are very grand. They are not only followed by servants, but also many guards. At first glance, they look like ordinary people.
Could it be that something happened in the city?
Chi Yuxian thought to himself.
But he quickly put this matter behind him. After all, he didn't care about these things. After a few glances, he looked away.
When he arrived in the city, the stalls on the street had been set up early. The aroma of various breakfast stalls was overflowing, and the water vapor was constantly filling the air, as if white clouds were falling.
After Chi Yuxian bought a few breakfast items that they often ate, he packed up and prepared to go back. When he just rounded a corner, he bumped into someone he had met before - the woman in red was walking towards the end of the street. Go forward.
The news of hauntings has spread so widely these days that everyone moves back when Chen Tiansi passes by.
No one dared to approach the person crawling out of the grave, but they looked up as if no one had noticed.
Chen Tiansi's expression remained as usual, like a sharp sword cutting through the crowd.
She looked like she was going to buy something, looking at the stalls on the street as she walked.
After Chi Yuxian glanced at it for a few times, he withdrew his gaze, and then walked forward naturally.
Just when they passed each other, a voice as light as a silver bell sounded: "Master, please stay."
"You seem to have dropped something."
Chen Tiansi raised her hand and patted Chi Yuxian's shoulder, but missed it, so she had to shout.
"not mine."
Chi Yuxian turned back and glanced at the money bag that fell on the ground, and then answered the other party calmly and politely.
After saying that, he turned around and left. Unexpectedly, the other party called him again.
"Young Master looks familiar. We seem to have met there before."
These words sounded familiar, like a pick-up line.
Chi Yuxian's expression was silent, and his sharp-lined face was calm: "Maybe."
His brows furrowed slightly, and his cold and stern facial features looked very intimidating. After seeing this, Chen Tiansi couldn't help but tremble, lowered her head and did not dare to speak again.
She looked as if Chi Yuxian had bullied her. Chi Yuxian, who didn't want to get into trouble, shut up, turned around and left decisively while holding an umbrella.
Chen Tiansi looked at his retreating figure, and the shyness and cowardice on her face suddenly disappeared.
She lowered her head and touched the sachet hanging on her waist, with a hint of sadness on her face.
After leaving, Chiyu hurriedly walked back with his breakfast. His pace gradually quickened because it was already getting late, around eight o'clock.
He has been out for nearly an hour. It would be okay if he was alone. The key is that there are still flowers all over the building, so he can't keep the other party waiting for him.
When he walked outside the city, Chi Yuxian saw a few people not far away from a distance and raised his eyebrows.
Didn't those people give up on killing him? Are you going to kill him after finally coming out?
Chi Yuxian glanced at the breakfast in his hand, sighed softly, and thought to himself: "I hope Huamanlou won't dislike eating cold breakfast."
Thinking of this, he felt a little guilty in his heart. The General Administration felt sorry for Hua Manlou.
When he got closer, he finally saw those people.
One of them was very terrifying, with a third of his entire face destroyed and only half of his head left.
It’s awesome to be able to live like this.
Chi Yuxian looked at the man's wounds that looked like wrinkled tree bark and thought inappropriately in his mind.
"You have obviously failed so many times, but you still persevere."
He put the breakfast in his hand on the stone aside, then slowly closed his umbrella and placed it next to the breakfast.
With a "squeak" sound, a scimitar was unsheathed, and the blade reflected a little bit of cold light, attacking the people standing not far away like a bolt of lightning.
Chi Yuxian, who has a knife in his hand, and Chi Yuxian, who is bare-handed, are two people. His eyes are gloomy and cold, and he wields the knife with a fierce momentum, as if a huge stone will be ruthlessly scratched in front of him.
The wind of the knife blew up the dust on the ground, which made him a little confused for a moment.
The man who was missing half of his head laughed ferociously, holding two black judge pens in his hands, and raised his hand to block the scimitar coming towards his face.
He turned his wrist, made a circle with the iron pen on the blade, and pushed the entire blade towards Chi Yuxian with skill.
The sound of fighting continued, and the sunlight gradually disappeared and was blocked by a thick cloud.
Chi Yuxian's face was calm, and he seemed to be able to face the siege of several people with ease.
He has been uncharacteristically diligent these days, practicing all the copied techniques every morning and evening. It took a lot of time to practice one set.
"Huh, I do have some capital."
Another man with a long beard said, he used a whisk. The soft whisk was like a sharp weapon in his hand. The move that Chi Yuxian had just dodged hit the stone, and the stone instantly fell into pieces.
He didn't make any reaction to this, his face was still indifferent, but his eyes were fixed on the person opposite him.
A scimitar seemed to come to life in his hand. Sometimes it was the majestic Hu family's swordsmanship, and sometimes it was the elegant and unbreakable swordsmanship.
Not only did those people get no benefits, but they were injured a few times.
Chi Yuxian always changes to another one every time the opponent gets used to the current move.
When he saw that he was about to end the assassination, his eyes suddenly went dark.
An unbearable dizziness suddenly rushed into his brain. Chi Yuxian's face turned pale at a speed visible to the naked eye. The moon-moving knife he had been holding tightly in his hand fell to the ground with a "bang".
The next moment, the young man in black fell to the ground like his saber, his gloomy eyes were tightly closed, and he fainted.
"Hmph, he can hold on, it took him so long to collapse."
"Okay, isn't it embarrassing enough that you can't beat a boy and a half in total?"
"Take it back first."
He said with half a face, and then pulled Chi Yuxian by his collar and pulled him up from the ground.
His pale arms hung at his sides, his skin stained with dust and turning gray.
