Keyboard Immortal Chapter 1008: Let the wolf guard the sheep
Xiao Yao opened his sleepy eyes and looked at him: "You don't seem to be afraid?"
Zuan smiled slightly: "You and I have no grievances, we just drank together, why should I be afraid?"
"I don't think that's the reason," Xiao Yao jumped down from the window and walked towards him slowly, "because we fought before, you have enough confidence."
"Your Excellency's sword at the banquet just now was really amazing, but I took it by accident." Zaan said humbly. At that time, the other party turned the sword intent into the wine. Most of the wine was water, and he The blue mallard has a natural affinity for the water element, so it is much easier for him to pick up than others.
Xiao Yao shook his head: "I'm not talking about the fight at the banquet, but the one during the day."
Zuan An's head jumped: "I don't understand what you're talking about."
Xiao Yao looked at him with a half-smile, "Just try it out."
As soon as he finished speaking, a sword stabbed out so fast that he couldn't even see the process of drawing the sword.
Zuan retreated ten feet away in an instant, dodging his lightning-fast sword, and when he was about to counterattack, the opponent had already retracted the sword: "It was exactly the same as dodging in the daytime."
At this moment, several breaths rushed over from outside, and Sang Hong was the first to arrive: "Azu, what happened?"
Then other people rushed in one after another. It was obvious that the qi fluctuations that had just erupted here had alarmed them.
"It's fine, I was just practicing." To dispel their suspicions, Zaun went to open the door to meet them.
Sang Hong looked at the room without revealing a trace, and then nodded when he saw nothing out of the ordinary: "Then be careful yourself, if something happens, speak up, and the nearby guards will come as soon as possible." /
"Thank you uncle for your concern." Zaun closed the door again after sending them away.
At this time, Xiao Yao came out from behind the bed and asked curiously, "Why didn't they notify them to arrest me together?"
"I can sense that you have no ill will, so why should I arrest you?" Zaun pulled a stool and sat down, motioning him to sit too.
Xiao Yao was not polite, and sat down casually without any manners: "You are young, but your mentality is quite open-minded."
Zuan was noncommittal: "Your Excellency came to me in the middle of the night, not to have a family affair with me."
"I'm a little curious. You are so young, why do you recognize me? I've disappeared in the arena for so many years, and I almost forgot my name." Xiao Yao said sighingly.
Zuan replied: "Actually, I have been to the academy several times before, and I have a good relationship with the teachers in Houshan, and I may know more than the average person."
Hearing him mentioning Zhen Xuzi, Heihezi and others, Xiao Yao also had a smile on his face: "After so many years, they are still like this. Hey, but they have all become leaders in their respective fields, only the My senior brother is completely wasted..."
Feeling his loneliness, Zaan said: "Your Excellency, you don't have to be so arrogant, everyone in the world says you have fallen, but I think your swordsmanship is more powerful than the legendary peak of your year, I can only say that the world sees it. Wrong, the Sword Immortal is still that Sword Immortal."
Xiao Yao shook his head mockingly: "No, many things can't go back."
Zuan said in a deep voice: "Although I don't know what happened to you, but your deeds inspired many people back then. For example, a friend I know uses you as an idol..."
He explained Xiao Jianren's story in general, but of course concealed a lot of details, so as not to be guessed that he was the gold medal eleven.
Xiao Yao was also a little surprised to hear that someone worshipped him so much, and his whole person was a little lost, obviously recalling the glorious days of the past.
Zu Anxin thought that if he made a sneak attack at this time, the opponent would be seriously injured even if he didn't die. His mood was fluctuating so much, he didn't know what he went through to make this happen.
"It's not in vain to lead a young boy to be positive. It's time to drink a drink." Xiao Yao laughed, took a few sips of the wine, and then asked Zaan if he wanted it.
Zuan shook his head. This guy is really an alcoholic who can always find reasons to drink.
After putting down the jug, Xiao Yao suddenly restrained his smile, and his sleepy eyes became a little sharp: "Why did you touch the inner courtyard of Pei's house during the day?"
"I'm friends with Manman," Zaun replied, asking rhetorically, "Then why are you there?"
"My mother and I are friends." Speaking of her mother, Xiao Yao's eyes flashed with a hint of tenderness.
Zuan looks weird, is this friend you're talking about serious?
"Stinky boy, what are you thinking?" Seemingly aware of his thoughts, Xiao Yao gave him an angry look.
Zuan asked tentatively, "You're not Manman's father, are you?"
If the other party is my husband, then the fun will be big.
Xiao Yao's face flushed red: "Don't talk nonsense, Manman's mother is pure and clean, don't insult her reputation."
Seeing his reaction, Zaan roughly guessed what was going on, and Xiao Yao's status in his heart plummeted.
I originally thought that the other party and Damanman's mother were lovers, but now it seems that not only is it not a lover, but it seems that it is just a goddess's lick - a dog.
Xiao Yao also gradually calmed down at this time, looking at the position of his neck: "I played against you during the day, and saw you wearing a flame-shaped pendant, where did you get it?"
Zuan An moved, no wonder the murderous aura of the other party weakened a lot at that time. He took out the peculiarly shaped pendant with a gentle smile on his face: "Damanman gave it to me."
Xiao Yao was a little lost for a while, and looked at Zuan with a very complicated expression: "She actually gave you this pendant."
Zu An moved: "What's wrong?"
Xiao Yao shook his head, his expression seemed to be remembering something, and after a while, he said: "This pendant used to belong to her mother, and then her mother passed it on to Manman, this thing is their most precious thing, it will only be To the closest lover."
Zuan silently took the pendant back. This guy didn't get the pendant from Damanman's mother, don't let him grab it jealously.
Xiao Yao laughed dumbly: "Since you and Manman have this kind of relationship, then I can safely give you protection. I have something to leave, and I can't protect her for a while, so I feel relieved. No more."
Zuan: "Senior is really protecting her."
As much as I guessed.
Xiao Yao nodded: "Manman's mother passed away early, and later his father married a woman from the Yu family and gave birth to a younger brother, Pei Xing at the banquet today. Because her mother was not named, Manman Man's position and situation in the Pei family has always been awkward."
Hearing this, Zaan felt a little distressed. I can imagine the days that Manman has lived since he was a child, but the first time I saw her, she was smiling and warm, obviously burying all the bitterness in her heart. And use a smile as your protective color.
"The mother and son of the Yu family relied on their status as the wife and direct son, as well as the family background of their parents, so they made things difficult for Manman, and Pei Shao was very partial, so Manman was unbearable, rarely at home, but outside. Traveling, but also a few clean days."
"However, after she came back this time, she was placed under house arrest by the Pei family, and she was no longer allowed to go out at will. I wanted to take her away, but unfortunately she refused to go with me."
Speaking of this, Xiao Yao showed pain.
"Why doesn't she want to leave?" Zaan asked curiously. Da Man Man probably isn't the kind of bun who is bullied and swallowed hard.
Xiao Yao laughed at herself: "I think she hates me because of her mother."
Zuan's expression immediately became strange, and she said that you and her mother were just ordinary friends?
Xiao Yao was obviously reluctant to discuss this topic in depth, and continued: "After my investigation, I finally figured out that Pei You wanted to marry her to Prince Qi as his concubine."
Although I have learned about this from Pei You before, but now I hear Zaan still furious: "Zhao Zhi is also worthy?"
Seeing his reaction, Xiao Yao nodded with the same feeling: "Yes, with Manman's talent and appearance, even if he was a concubine, he was also a concubine, and even if he took it as a concubine, Pei Shao's servant was also lost. Wisdom!"
Zuan looked in the direction of Pei's family, thinking that it would be impossible for Da Manman to marry someone else if he said anything.
"I can't take Manman away, so I have been secretly protecting her during this time so that she won't be bullied. Unfortunately, I have to leave recently, and I can rest assured that I will leave her protection to you. Yes." Xiao Yao said happily.
"Don't worry, I will protect her!" Zaan replied in a deep voice.
Xiao Yao nodded with satisfaction, took out a small wooden sword the size of a toothpick from his arms and handed it to him: "Although your cultivation base should be enough to handle all kinds of situations, just in case, take this with you. Well, my sword intent is sealed here, and if I encounter an enemy that is difficult to deal with in the future, I will use it to attack the opponent, which is equivalent to my full blow."
"In the entire Yunzhong County, there are not many who can block my full blow." There was a sense of pride in his tone.
After he finished speaking, he didn't wait for Zaan to stay, and his figure quickly disappeared out of the window: "Using the sword to ride the wind, destroying the world... You send me a poem, and I will return you a gift, it's also a joke. It's okay, hahaha!"
