Hidden Blade Chapter 26: The identity of Chu Qiuli
After a series of great condolences, Xu Han and others finally stayed in this Linglong Pavilion.
Perhaps considering that Ye Hongjian had only undergone a major change, and for fear that she was still in shock, Ning Zhumang and others only asked about the process of some things, and did not ask much about the details.
For example, the absurd claim that the killer leader was killed by a sky thunder falling from the sky, everyone just frowned, and no one questioned it on the spot. On the contrary, when Ye Hongjian said that Xu Han was her fiancé, it caused an uproar, but after Ning Zhumang's instigation, no matter how many questions people had, they chose to be silent at that time.
The three of them were arranged to live in a small courtyard on the mountainside of Zhongju Peak. Ye Hongjian was Si Bai's disciple, Xu Han was her fiance, and Chu Qiuli was said to be It was Xu Han's domestic slave. As Ye Hongjian, she wanted to keep these two people, even Ning Zhumang couldn't fault it, so she simply fulfilled her wish.
The courtyard is called Xiaoxuan Window. It is not big, but very delicate, but there are only two wing rooms.
It’s not that Linglong Pavilion is stingy. After all, it’s the big sect. After all, there are some rules. It is a great thing for ordinary disciples to have a single room, and Ye Hongjian approved a small courtyard. It is enough to see how noble Ye Hongjian's identity is.
Or in their hearts, what they think is that since Xu Han is Ye Hongjian's fiancé, and the two live in one room, it would be appropriate for Chu Qiuli to live in the other room alone.
It’s just a pity that Xu Han doesn’t have such Yanfu. He just wanted to go to Ye Hongjian’s room and talk to her. He threw out a pillow and quilt and drove him to another room. In the room.
On this day, from the Shangshan gate to the series of hushing cold questions, Xu Han was a little tired. He didn't mean to argue, holding his bedding, he pushed open the door on the other side of the courtyard. .
There, Chu Qiuli had already slept to death wrapped in a quilt. If it hadn't been for snoring, Xu Han would probably have thought that the other party had passed out.
Xu Han shook his head, thinking that he would have to live with this drunk, rough man in the future, and his head suddenly became a little big, but fortunately, he is also a person who has been accustomed to hard times, and he didn't feel much old. Discomfort. He simply laid out his position and slept beside Chu Qiuli.
......
When Xu Han got up on the morning of the second day, Ye Hongjian had been summoned by the big men of Linglong Pavilion.
After all, such a thing has happened, and the beginning and the end have to be explained clearly. Xu Han had already expected this, and some details have also been opposed to Ye Hongjian, that is, they no longer doubt why the killer died, as long as They insisted that they were smashed by the thunder that day, and they couldn't find any flaws when they wanted to come to the other side.
"You're awake! Come, try my stewed chicken soup." Xu Han thought about this and pushed open the door, but the goal was Chu Qiuli's beard and smiling face. .
Youdao is a smiley person who reaches out his hand and does not hit the smiley face. Xu Han has poor senses for this alcoholic who stole his wallet when he first arrived in Chang'an, but the other party seems to be extremely concerned about his injuries. After serving the hot chicken soup, I thought I should have gotten up early.
is just being cared about by a middle-aged uncle like this, which makes Xu Han feel a little weird. He thinks that if this rough face in front of him is called Ye Hongjian's peerless face, then it is extremely OK.
But he still stretched out his hand to take the chicken soup, said a thank you to Chu Qiu, and then sat down on the stone bench in the courtyard with the chicken soup.
He took a sip and felt that it tasted good. Xu Han, who hadn’t been out there for a night, might have also smelled the scent. A few flashes jumped onto the stone table, eagerly "meow meow" towards Xu Han. I'm not listening.
"It’s just your glutton." Xu Han gave it a white look, but he took a spoon out of the bowl and handed it to the black cat. The black cat lowered his head and stretched out his tongue to lick in the spoon. There was a gurgling sound in the throat.
Xu Han looked at the black cat happily, and along the way, this little guy had suffered a lot with him. Xu Han had already regarded it as a friend in his heart, and Xu Han would be satisfied with what he liked.
Besides, the condition in his body is not too bad, as long as he recovers in a little while, it is not a problem for Xu Han to drink this chicken soup or not.
At that time, he stroked the oily hair on Xuan'er's back, but he looked at the two majestic mountains in the distance.
Linglong Pavilion is located on a large mountain called Tengyun Mountain at the junction of Qingzhou, Jizhou and Liangzhou.
There are three main peaks in this mountain, which are called Dahuan, Zhongju, and Xuanhe. Corresponding to grammar, martial art, and medicine.
Xu Han is on the mountainside of Zhongju Peak, one of the three peaks, and the purpose of his trip, the precious medicinal materials that can refine his demon arms are located on the hanging river peak in the distance.
It’s just that although this Linglong Pavilion has arrived, it is still difficult to obtain those rare and rare medicinal materials.
Steal? He doesn't have that ability.
Grab? He doesn't have that strength.
change? He has no longevity.
Thinking like this, Xu Han's brain hurts a little.
"Come here, there are also steamed fish and duck in white vinegar." At this time, Chu Qiuli's rough voice resounded in the courtyard, and he saw a strong man with a height of seven feet holding him like a woman. Two plates of fragrant dishes came out and eagerly handed them to Xu Han's table.
Before Xu Han came back to his senses, Xuan'er rushed to the plate in a hurry, grabbed a piece of fish, and ate it with big mouthfuls.
"You eat too! Why watch Xuan'er eat!" Chu Chouli was so busy that he was sweating and asked when he looked at Xu Han.
Xu Han finally turned his head when he heard the words, and looked at Chu Qiuli with a diligent look, his eyes narrowed.
Except for the unpleasant encounter in Chang'an City, he and Chu Qiuli can probably only be regarded as a peaceful encounter, but the man's concern for Xu Han is quite flattering.
It was just early in the morning, and I brought big fish and meat to the front. Thinking about it carefully, Xu Han had never received such a courtesy in his entire eighteen years of life.
There is no love for no reason in this world, and the origin of Chu Qiuli is so strange that Xu Han can't be without suspicion.
Maybe there is a ghost in his heart. Under Xu Han's gaze, Chu Qiuli instinctively turned his gaze away, not daring to look at Xu Han.
"Master Xu...what's wrong with this?" he asked vaguely.
"Big Brother Chu is so courteous, and a little flattered under him." Xu Han squinted his eyes in response.
"What brother said, I am a hunter. Fortunately, the young lady values taking writer slaves and serving Young Master Xu. These things should be done by someone from Chu." Chu Qiuli beat haha, trying to get through.
"As long as hunters rely on strength and ability to eat, whether it is opening a bow and arrow, or digging holes and burial thorns, it is all strength." But he far underestimated Xu Han's ability, and the boy's eyes fell at that moment. On Chu Qiuli's hands, "This kind of thing has been done a lot, no matter the palm or ten fingers, it will have thick calluses."
"Where is Brother Chu?" Xu Han squinted at Chu Qiuli.
The brawny man's face changed at that time, and he instinctively retracted his hands.
It was a pair of hands that did not match Chu Qiuli's rugged appearance. The fingers were slender and white as jade. Except for those rich and famous, most ordinary people couldn't give birth to such a pair of clean hands.
"Let’s say, who are you, why do you know Ye Hongjian so well? Could it be that lady’s wife?" Xu Han asked, with a teasing smile on his face at the end, "I can’t think of this Ye. Missy’s taste is so unique."
"Boy, you can't talk nonsense about this!" Chu Qiuli heard the words and suddenly felt like a wild cat with a painful foot. He exploded his hair. He stood up and hurriedly defended. "The guy Yuan Guilong likes red paper very much, and he considers her his own. If he hears these rumors, he shouldn't cut my head with his big knife."
"Yuanguilong?" Xu Han keenly caught the key point in Chu Qiuli's words. He condensed his eyes and asked: "Are you from Tiance Mansion?"
asked this question, and before Chu Qiuli could respond, Xu Han had the answer in his heart.
From Ye Hongjian’s previous performance, it’s not difficult to see that Ye Hongjian had a lot of private contact with Tiance Mansion, and Ye Hongjian was admitted to Linglong Pavilion. To some extent, it can be regarded as Tiance Mansion. The alliance between the mansion and Linglong Pavilion. And this key person is Ye Hongjian.
How can a character like not be escorted by a decent master?
Now it seems that the humble Chu Qiuli in front of him is the master arranged by Tiance Mansion...
"Why? Don't I look like?" It seemed that he had read the suspicion in Xu Han's eyes, and Chu Qiuli asked with a sigh of indignation on the stone table.
"Image, image, image." As a member of the Tiance Mansion, Xu Han also let go of the little wariness in his heart. He had no intention of arguing with Chu Qiuli, so he nodded again and again at that time, but soon Thinking of something again, he looked at Chu Qiuli suspiciously and asked, "Since you were sent by Tiance Mansion to protect Ye Hongjian, where were you when I was fighting with the Shura envoy?"
"Uh..." This question caused the indignation on Chu Qiuli's face to disappear in a flash~IndoMTL.com~ His aura plummeted, and he froze for a long time, but he couldn't say why. Finally, in Xu Han's increasingly suspicious gaze, he finally couldn't support it. Then he said: "It's all because the daughter of Wu Lao San Niang in the town is so red and mellow...I... .."
Following the words, Chu Chouli didn't have the face to continue speaking, but instead looked like a grieved little daughter-in-law, looking at Xu Han timidly.
Xu Han felt nauseous for a while, and he waved his hand, as he had exposed the matter, and was about to say something.
Chu Qiuli’s forehead, suddenly said: "Oh, look at my mind, I made an appointment with someone to go to the mountain in the morning, and I almost forgot, I have to take a step first."
, he didn’t wait for Xu Han to come back to his senses, he was busy for a while, and he didn’t know what was vacated from the house, so he hurried out, and at the end he didn’t forget to remind Xu Han to eat Those meals are said to be good for his health.
Seeing that Chu Qiuli was ridiculously leaving, Xu Han shook his head, wondering how Tiance Mansion would send such a guy to **** Ye Hongjian.
thinking this way, he raised his chopsticks and wanted to taste the food in front of him.
At that time, there was a loud noise outside the house.
It seems that many people have come, shouting words like thief, thieves, or chickens and ducks.
Xu Han was taken aback and looked at the food at his table again.
This is Linglong Pavilion, Chu Qiuli just like him, who can meet?
And where did the table full of chicken, duck and fish come from?
Thinking of this, Xu Han suddenly felt black in front of him, and he was eating it unintentionally.
