bad

Xiao Bai called out to where Xu Li was.

Ying Zhou turned his head, and saw Xu Li was standing not far away looking at him, with a dazzling golden light on his chest.

Ying Zhou tilted his head and looked at it for a while, that ball of golden light was really too bright, much more radiant than Xu Jingluan, and he couldn't help but hesitate when he bowed and shot arrows with Xu Boyuan, could Xu Li be the dragon he was looking for? son?But Xu Li is already a crown prince, if he is a dragon son, then the dragon's veins are not disordered, wouldn't it be meaningless for him to go down to earth?

He was dazed for a moment, and Xu Li had already walked in front of him.

Xu Li's stature is about the same as Ying Zhou's, and her stature is not bad, but compared to Xu Boyuan's years of martial arts practice, she is a bit thinner.Ying Zhou felt that the eyes he looked at him seemed familiar, it was very similar to the eyes the people below looked at him when he was standing on the stage of Yayang Pavilion last night, there was an indescribable madness, which made his back numb and felt uncomfortable.

"Your name is Ying Zhou?"

Xu Li took a step forward. He was also holding an umbrella in his hand, but he put it away and got under Ying Zhou's umbrella.The two of them suddenly got very close, Ying Zhou's eyebrows moved slightly, and he took a step back to avoid it.

Xu Li curled her lips and smiled slantingly, "What are you hiding from?"

Ying Zhou thought, this person probably likes to smile like this, that's why the corners of his mouth are uneven.This smile is the same as his eyes, which makes people feel very uncomfortable. Ying Zhou suddenly remembered the word "rogue" that Aunt Chun called him. I couldn't help but took another step back, and said politely: "My umbrella is small, two people will inevitably get wet, you should use another umbrella."

Xu Li choked, "It's your blessing to share an umbrella with you, how dare you refuse Gu?"

Ying Zhou was puzzled and said, "Since you have two umbrellas, why do you need to get yourself wet?"

He tilted his head slightly, his eyes were black and white, clear like a trickling stream, and also like an innocent deer, Xu Li's heart itched unbearably when he saw it, and he really wanted to press someone under him right now | Red eyes are good.But he couldn't eat hot tofu in a hurry, and he was willing to put down his body to flirt with a beautiful woman, so he softened his tone, opened his umbrella and backed away: "You're right, but this umbrella is really in the way, why don't you go alone Go sit in the pavilion over there?"

Clinker Ying Zhou took another step back, "I won't go..."

Xu Li's expression distorted for a moment, "It's just a thing to serve others, don't toast or eat fine wine!"

His sudden raised voice startled Xiaobai who was in Ying Zhou's arms. Xiaobai bared his teeth at him and yelled intimidatingly. Seeing that he was about to jump from Ying Zhou's arms to bite Xu Li, Ying Zhou hurriedly held him down. Xu Li sneered, "A white-haired beast dares to be disrespectful to Gu, come here!"

The eunuch who was following Xu Li was guarding not far away, when he heard Xu Li's cry, he immediately trotted over, Xu Li pointed at Xiao Bai and said angrily, "Drag this bastard out to me and kill it!"

The eunuch heard the order and wanted to grab the cat in Ying Zhou's arms, but Ying Zhou hid for a while, the umbrella in his hand was thrown away, the rain hit his face in fine numbness, and he couldn't open his eyes.Seeing that the eunuch was about to rush forward again, Ying Zhoufei quickly stepped back a few steps, and suddenly his back hurt, as if he had bumped into something.A circular fan-shaped shadow was cast in front of him, and he turned his head to see that it was Xu Boyuan standing behind him holding an umbrella, his back was pressed against Xu Boyuan's chest.

The umbrella in Xu Boyuan's hand leaned forward, covering Ying Zhou completely, blocking the lingering rain, and said in a deep and calm voice, "Your Highness, you are just a beast, why should you be as knowledgeable as him."

Xu Li sarcastically replied: "Cousin, it's just an animal, and it needs to be dealt with alone, so why don't you stop it?"

"Last night, thanks to Ying Zhou delaying the time of the villain, I was able to rescue A Luan smoothly. For the sake of the minister and A Luan, Your Highness, please don't blame me." Xu Boyuan bowed his head towards him, with a respectful attitude, but his tone was really indifferent, and he was biased towards him. With such a low profile, you can't go wrong.

Xu Li squinted her eyes for a moment, and finally flicked her long sleeves, "Forget it, since it's my cousin who spoke, Gu naturally wants to save face."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Xu Li took a deep look at Ying Zhou, he has always wanted to have the wind and the rain, and there is nothing that he can't get his hands on.It's just a little boy, it's not worth taking the face of Prince Yu's mansion, not to mention Xu Boyuan can protect this time, can he protect him for the rest of his life?Now that I know it's from Yayange, I'm not in a hurry, sooner or later there will be a chance.In a short time, he returned to the cheerful and frivolous look he had when we first met, smiled and said: "I have been out for half a day, and my father is still waiting for the news of A Luan in the palace, so it is time for Gu to return to his life."

Xu Boyuan said: "I will see His Highness off."

The eunuch stepped forward to take the umbrella from Xu Li's hand, and Xu Li left without looking back.

Xu Boyuan was not in a hurry, he leaned over and picked up the oiled paper umbrella that Ying Zhou had just dropped on the ground, and handed it over.No matter how slow Ying Zhou was, he could hear Xu Boyuan's intention to protect him and Xiaobai just now, he couldn't help being a little moved, but also a little dazed, staring blankly at the handle of the green bamboo umbrella in his hand, not knowing what to say for a moment.

"Why did you reject the prince?" Xu Boyuan asked softly.

"Huh?" Ying Zhou was puzzled, "Shouldn't I refuse?"

He couldn't tell the reason, he just didn't like the way Xu Li looked at him, and he didn't want to get close to this person.

After he finished speaking, he suddenly saw the corners of Xu Boyuan's mouth twitch upwards. The smile was too short and disappeared in an instant.

Xu Boyuan glanced at Ying Zhou Rushi's shoulder, "Come and change clothes with the servant, and I'll send the prince off."

I don't know if it was Ying Zhou's illusion, but he always felt that Xu Boyuan's tone was much lighter than before.

Xu Boyuan turned around and chased after Xu Li, leaving Ying Zhou watching his back.He is well-proportioned and tall, with broad shoulders and long legs. When he walks, his clothes roll gently. Walking in this hazy drizzle, he looks indescribably good-looking.

In the middle of the night, the rain became heavier again, crackling on the black tiles, making a dream-like sound.Because of the rain, the lanterns could not be lit, and Zhaojing was shrouded in terrifying darkness. Amidst the sound of the rain, there seemed to be beasts dormant, and their sharp claws might tear the night apart at any time.

In the depths of Qingshi Street, a man in black stepped on a puddle of water, walking alone in the dark night without an umbrella, letting the cold rain drenched him completely.

In his hand is a heart that is still beating, dripping with blood, and has a strange shape, with seven wonderful protrusions on the top, hard in texture, embedded in the flesh like a ruby.The thick and bright red blood on the heart dripped all the way, and was quickly washed away by the rain, flowing along the gaps between the bluestone slabs into one puddle after another, diluting into a transparent color.

"Is this Linglongxin?"

Suddenly a male voice came from behind, and the man in black suddenly turned around, and saw a slender figure leaning against the eaves not far away. It was hard to see clearly through the rain, but the man in black quickly realized the identity of the person coming, His body tensed up and became alert, "Jiao Wang."

The person who came noticed his movements and chuckled lightly, as if mocking his overreaching, "Sitong always likes to use tricks that don't work."

The man in black twitched his eyebrows, but he didn't say anything to argue.

"Tiger poison doesn't eat its eggs," the man's voice drifted into the ears of the man in black casually, "is it worth it?"

Word by word, it was clearly a light and fluttering voice, but it was like a hammer, driving a handful of sharp needles into my heart.

I saw the man walking out from under the eaves, his body seemed to be covered with an invisible barrier, the rainwater bounced off before it touched his body, and scattered into thousands of sprays.He didn't have any evil spirit on him, but the man in black immediately realized that if he made a move, he would not be his opponent.

However, the man turned his back to the man in black, and walked slowly into the boundless darkness, as if he had waited here for a long time just to say that fluffy sentence.

The man in black stood in the rain for a while until his back completely disappeared.He looked down at the weakly pulsating heart in his hands, and sighed silently for a long while.

In the early morning of the second day, Tang Zhilian's body was found at the corner of Yu Qingshi Street, Tanhua Tang of Jinke. His chest was bloody and bloody as if it had been torn apart by sharp claws, and his heart was missing.In less than two days on Qingshi Street, Princess Duankang was kidnapped and Tanhua was assassinated. The emperor was furious and immediately summoned Dali Siqing and others into the palace, intending to arrest the murderer.

A few days later, I don't know where it started. Rumors spread in Beijing, all saying that Tan Hua was killed by a monster. It is a flower demon, and it has been spread vividly in the streets and alleys, and there are all kinds of explanations.

"In my opinion, it must have been done by a monster!"

Dou Lian took the medicine bowl from Xu Jingluan's hand, and Ying Zhou handed over a peeled lychee. Xu Jingluan took it with a smile and ate it, asking, "Why do you think so?"

Dou Lian was the young servant in green who went to Yayan Pavilion with Xu Jingluan that day, Xu Jingluan's personal maid, she heard the words and replied: "Oh, Mr. Tang's chest was torn to pieces! That blood, It flows from the corner of the street to the end of the street, how can a person do such a terrible thing!"

Xu Jingluan couldn't help laughing: "It's as if you saw it with your own eyes."

Dou Lian stuck out her tongue, "Isn't that what people outside say?"

Xu Jingluan looked sideways at Ying Zhou who was sitting beside her, "Ying Zhou, in your opinion, is it really a monster?"

She has been bedridden for the past few days to recuperate from her illness, she doesn't go out of the house, she has nothing to do in her free time, but she has become acquainted with Ying Zhou.For some reason, when she woke up and saw Ying Zhou, there was always an indescribable intimacy.

Ying Zhou tilted his head and thought for a while, "Maybe it is."

Xu Jingluan raised her head and asked again: "Can monsters really eat people?"

Ying Zhou nodded and said, "Some are for food."

Xu Jingluan poked Xiaobai who was lying on the table between the two, "What about Xiaobai, do you want Xiaobai to eat?"

The white cat "meowed" unhappily, and jumped into Ying Zhou's arms to hide. Ying Zhou replied, "Xiaobai has been living without food for many years. He only drinks water and doesn't eat anything."

Xu Jingluan patted her thigh, "No wonder! Yesterday I secretly fed him rabbit meat, and he didn't even look at me!"

Ying Zhou said "Oh", with a serious face, but what he thought in his heart was that you might as well feed it to me, and I will eat it.

"Hey, my brother has been busy for several days, but I haven't found any clues." Xu Jingluan peeled a lychee, and handed it to Ying Zhou, "If it was really a monster, the case of Dali Temple may be If it can’t be broken, my brother will also be unlucky.”

Ying Zhou ate too many lychees, and felt that his mouth was a bit greasy with sweetness, so he took a sip from the water glass, "What will happen if we can't solve the case?"

Xu Jingluan said: "In a few days it will be the autumn hunt. The emperor must be in a bad mood when something like this happens suddenly. Once this dragon's heart is not good - everyone's life will not be easy."

Thinking deeply, Ying Zhou couldn't help peeling another lychee and put it in his mouth.

Xu Jingluan secretly looked at him, then suddenly cleared her throat, "Ying Zhou."

"Ok?"

"You said that if it was really a monster, can you and Xiaobai catch him?"

Ying Zhou turned his head to look at her, and saw Xu Jingluan resting her face in her hands, staring at herself with a pair of bright eyes, with an inexplicable expectation in her eyes, Ying Zhou said honestly: "There are so many people in the capital, how many people do you need?" It's not easy to find a monster."

"Oh..." Xu Jingluan's voice was a little disappointed, but she still didn't give up, "What if there is a clue?"

Ying Zhou asked, "What kind of clue?"

"Like...such as claw marks or something..."

Ying Zhou thought about it seriously, and replied: "If you know what kind of monster it is, maybe you can look for it according to its habit."

Xu Jingluan's eyes lit up, "If we find it, can Xiaobai beat it?"

Hearing this, Xiaobai raised his head from Ying Zhou's embrace, and rolled his eyes at Xu Jingluan, that expression seemed to say: Mortal, are you serious?

Ying Zhou rubbed his head and said with a smile, "Ordinary monsters are no match for Xiao Bai."

"That's great!" Xu Jingluan jumped off the grand teacher's chair, clapped her hands and said, "Ying Zhou! Let's go catch the monsters!"

"Hmm..." Ying Zhou hesitated for a moment, "How to catch?"

"Oh!" Xu Jingluan grabbed Ying Zhou's arm and pulled him up from the chair involuntarily, "Go and see Tang Helian's body first, I'm sure we can find clues!"

The author has something to say: Sha Zhou looked at the lychee and shook his head: I don’t want to eat it, it’s too sweet.

Xu Boyuan hugged him into his arms: How about something else to eat?

Silly Zhou: Well...

In a trance, I feel that the rhythm of the daily update of 3000 suddenly picks up, and the story of the original 3000 words is told in 6000 words, which is really great... =. =
