Seven bitter flowers

Chapter 22: The Man with the Blue Face

Ding Xiu's feet were empty, and he fell straight down from the tree. Fortunately, although his face was hot, his mind was not lost. When he was about to hit the ground, he turned over and landed on the ground lightly and skillfully, without even a sound.

Looking at the top of the tree, Ding Xiu was embarrassed to jump up anyway.When her eyes turned slightly, she was facing Zhan Zhao's pair of bright eyes hidden by the leaves. Ding Xiu felt very embarrassed, and her face was burning hot again. After walking two steps, there was a slight sound of leaves above her head, and then her arms tightened, Zhan Zhao had jumped down from the tree and grabbed her.

Ding Xiu blushed to the point of his ears, but he didn't dare to make a sound, and only gently pulled his arm.Zhan Zhao let go of her arm like an electric shock, and wanted to explain to her, but he really didn't know how to speak. After a long silence, he coughed, and said in a low voice, "Miss Ding, I... am not..." Before saying anything After finishing, I suddenly heard the sound of footsteps coming from a distance around the corner of the street. The footsteps were light and quick, and suddenly they were close. The person who came was actually a master of martial arts.Zhan Zhao didn't have time to say anything, he held Ding Xiu between his elbows, exerted strength on his toes, and with a soft "chi", he had already pulled her back up the tree.

Ding Xiu's internal strength was not as good as Zhan Zhao's, and he didn't hear the sound of footsteps. Being flustered by Zhan Zhao's action, he suddenly felt his heart pounding, almost jumping out of his chest, so he wanted to ask him aloud, but he was about to open his mouth , his mouth felt warm, and Zhan Zhao stretched out his hand to cover it.Ding Xiu's breathing was stagnant, his body became stiff, and he didn't even dare to move.

At this moment, the owner of the footsteps had already rushed out of the courtyard, Zhan Zhao looked out from among the leaves, and saw a flash of white shadow, a man in white had jumped into the courtyard.Almost at the moment when the man's feet landed on the ground, eight ghostly figures in black quickly floated out of the darkness, surrounding the man in white from all sides. Each of them held a weapon in their hands, glowing slightly under the moonlight. There was a cold light.At this moment, Zhan Zhao also saw clearly that the man in white was wearing a bronze grimace mask on his face, only revealing a pair of shining eyes. His white face and green face looked terrifying in the dark night.

Zhan Zhao thought to himself, "It's dangerous". Looking at the footwork and figure of these eight people, he knew that there were many good players among them. If he hadn't seen that there were people hiding in the courtyard, and rushed in like this recklessly, his life would not be in danger. , it must be difficult to escape.At the moment, he held his breath and focused his attention, leaning on the branch to stabilize his figure, not daring to move a little.

I saw the green-faced man in the courtyard standing with his hands behind his back, seemingly confident, before the eight of them could make a move, he said coldly, "Where is Chang Wuwang? Ask him to come out and see me." His voice was hoarse and deep, and there was a hint of a sword attack Sound, it sounds very uncomfortable.

The encirclement of the eight people remained unchanged, the man holding the sword in the middle suddenly pointed the tip of the sword upwards, the light of the sword trembled slightly, and drew two circles from left to right.The green-faced man still held one hand behind his back, stretched out the other hand, flicked it up and down, made several gestures with extraordinary quickness, and then quickly retracted his hand.As long as the eyesight is a little poor, I'm afraid they can't even see whether the person made a move or not.As soon as these gestures were finished, the man in the center suddenly held his sword in both hands, and bowed to salute at the same time as the remaining seven people, before they could straighten up, they retreated back together silently.

The more Zhan Zhao looked at it, the more surprised he was, at first he only thought that the green-faced man came to ask for trouble, but he didn't know that they were actually a team, and the moves of the two of them just now were probably the agreed code of recognition.And the eight people in ambush in this courtyard advance and retreat at the same time, their figures are extremely fast, they come and go suddenly, without making a sound, just like ghosts and ghosts, it really makes people shudder to think about.

After waiting for a long time, there was a soft "ah" sound from the hall door, and an old man in long robes had come out, he cupped his fists while walking and said with a low smile: "Brother Shangguan's legs are so fast, brother Yu thought that brother virtuous would have to wait until tomorrow at the earliest." This time can only come, Shicai's subordinates don't know how offended my virtuous brother has come, and I hope that my virtuous brother will not blame me." He hehe and laughed, but his expression seemed to be very afraid of the blue-faced man.

The blue-faced man snorted, still stood there with his hands behind his back, and said coldly: "Master Chang, you're welcome, I'm here tonight, just to remind Master Chang."

Chang Wuwang's face changed color, and he forced a smile and said: "Where is the meaning of what my brother said, I am very happy that my brother can come to Brother Yu, I have something to remind, Brother Yu, thank you in advance."

The blue-faced man turned around suddenly, two cold eyes shot directly at Chang Wuwang's face, Chang Wuwang shuddered, and took half a step back involuntarily.The blue-faced man sneered and said: "I'm so happy? I thought Brother Chang wished that I wouldn't come, so that I can leave you alone."

Chang Wuwang smiled dryly: "Brother Yu doesn't quite understand what you mean by that."

The green-faced man raised his hand, and with a "choke", he threw a chain gun on the ground, and said coldly, "Are there eight guards in this courtyard? Why does it look like one is missing, my brother? Hmph, Brother Chang really thought that I would not know if you attacked the people around me?"

Before he finished speaking the word "love", he didn't move his shoulders, he didn't lift his legs, and the person was shot out like an arrow. He was often hopeless, only to feel a blur in front of his eyes, a tightness in the back of his heart and the back of his neck, and he was already grabbed by the blue-faced man. If you stop, you can't move immediately.That person's movement was extremely fast, and his shots were extremely accurate. When the eight people in the courtyard rushed out, Chang Wuwang had already become a fish on the chopping board, ready to be slaughtered.

Chang Wuwang was so frightened that the blood on his face faded completely, he waved his hands repeatedly and said to the eight people: "Go down, go down, I will have a good talk with Brother Shangguan, I want you to come out to be troublesome, go down quickly." The man said in a trembling voice: "My dear brother, don't get me wrong, Brother Yu really doesn't know about this matter, that bastard Yu Su has always been disobedient, Brother Yu has long wanted to kill him, but now he dares to harm the people around my brother without permission. , is really extremely daring, and beyond his control. Brother Yu took action to kill him, which is exactly what brother Yu has in mind." While speaking, he actually pushed the matter away completely, but his voice was trembling, and it seemed Some lack of confidence.

The green-faced figure seemed to be frozen, motionless and silent.Chang Wuwang was already sweating through his heavy clothes in an instant, and felt as if several hours had passed, when he suddenly heard the blue-faced man laugh "haha", then loosened his neck, and the blue-faced man let go of him.

Chang Wuwang felt like walking through the gate of hell, his legs and feet felt weak, the night wind was blowing, his clothes were chilly, and he shivered unconsciously.The blue-faced man stretched out his hand, and patted his shoulder three times in a calm manner, Chang Wuwang's legs shook, and he almost sat down on the ground, only to hear the blue-faced man say: "Since it is Yu Su Doing things without authorization has nothing to do with Brother Chang, but the younger brother offended me just now. You and I work together, it's like being in the same boat, how dare the younger brother attack Brother Chang? If Brother Chang has any troubles, don't say big things are difficult Well, my younger brother must not be able to live alone." He laughed "haha" as he spoke, as if he didn't care about what happened just now.

Chang Wuwang knew that his words were to remind himself that the two of them worked together, and their interests were closely related. If they intentionally harmed him, neither party would end well, so he also laughed at that moment: "Even though the foolish brother and the virtuous brother have not met eight times, but It's also a blessing to share hardships, brother fool helps virtuous brother to achieve great things, and he will go through fire and water." He said, holding the man's arm, and leading him into the hall.

Zhan Zhao saw the two people entered the hall, summoned his internal energy, and wanted to hear what the two had to say, but their voices were extremely low, and Chang Wuwang could only vaguely hear Chang Wuwang say: "...October [-]th ...Underground...the government..." He couldn't hear clearly anymore, and he couldn't even hear the voice of the green-faced man.

Zhan Zhao hesitated for a moment, then decided to say nothing tonight and not rush in recklessly. He pulled Ding Xiu down and jumped down the tree gently. Didn't dare to make a sound.

Ding Xiu had been half-leaning in Zhan Zhao's arms, not moving at all, his legs and feet were already numb, but at this moment he was suddenly dragged to the ground by Zhan Zhao, his legs gave way, and he almost fell to the ground.Zhan Zhao had quick eyes and quick hands, and hugged Ding Xiu. He was in a dangerous place at the moment, and he didn't care about the private defense of men and women. He supported her waist with one hand, and held her hand with the other. He stretched out his body and rushed out.

When the two returned to the inn, Ding Xiu didn't talk to Zhan Zhao, didn't look back, and jumped upstairs with a "chuckle".Zhan Zhao was also quite embarrassed. When he was on the tree before, he was focused on watching the movement in the courtyard, but he was afraid of being discovered, so he put his arms around Ding Xiu but didn't take it seriously.But Fangcai dragged her along and walked very close to her, and could still smell the faint fragrance of her body in his nose, thinking of the two of them snuggling up against each other on the tree just now, and smelling each other's scents, they blushed and heartbeat.

Looking at the back of Ding Xiu going upstairs, Zhan Zhao felt a little ashamed in his heart, but also a strange feeling slowly rose from the bottom of his heart. For a while, he only felt that his mind was confused, and he was stunned on the spot. It took a long time before he came back to his senses. , took a few deep breaths, and then went upstairs.
