In fact, everyone looked at Huo Xiu in the birdcage as if they were looking at a fool.

Because there was a problem with the meticulous mechanism that Huo Xiu said, and the only passage under the seat he said had been destroyed.

He was locked in this 980-eight-jin iron cage like this, and he was so panic-stricken that he passed out.

Chu Liuxiang couldn't understand: "What kind of joke is he playing?"

Xia Jianqing remained unfathomable.

Of course he knew why Huo Xiu's mechanism suddenly failed, it was because someone wanted to avenge Shangguan Feiyan.

And he decided to follow this time because he was afraid that there would be some accidents if this person didn't show up, which would cause the protagonist group to be wiped out here.

But at present, Lu Xiaofeng's protagonist aura is still very strong.

Looking back now, Huo Xiu deserved what he deserved.

If he hadn't killed Shangguan Feiyan, the ending of this story would have been that Lu Xiaofeng would have lost.

But now, he can only be locked in this birdcage, using the wealth he has pursued all his life in exchange for some food to live on.

"Do you know how much silver I exchanged for a piece of cake? A total of 5 taels!" Shangguan Xue'er, who was adopted by Zhu Ting as a goddaughter, ran over bouncing.

……

On the way back, Xia Jianqing saw an old woman picking wild vegetables.

Looking carefully at her feet, a pair of red embroidered shoes loomed.

He suddenly had some sympathy for Lu Xiaofeng and Chu Liuxiang. As the protagonists, they were exhausted from running around the rivers and lakes every day, and were involved in countless shocking waves.

But luckily it was them.Because they don't feel bored themselves, and even enjoy themselves very much.

Lu Xiaofeng finally escaped from this matter, his whole body relaxed, and the red cloak behind him seemed to be more colorful.

"I'll send Qitong back to Jiangnan first. What do Boss Xia and Chu Xiangshuai think? Do you want to come to Jiangnan for a while?"

"In the future, my shop has been closed for too long."

After Xia Jianqing finished speaking, he fixed his eyes on Chu Liuxiang, and got ready with one hand.Today Chu Liuxiang had to go back to Beijing with him, and he had to get back the ten taels of silver that Jin Banhua owed him.

Chu Liuxiang naturally felt the fiery eyes of Xia Jianqing next to him, and felt complacent for a while. It seemed that Boss Xia was quite reluctant to part with him. At least he had a different status in Boss Xia's heart compared to Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou. !

So he quickly said, "I'll take Boss Xia back to Beijing." After speaking, he turned his head and glanced at Xia Jianqing, his face full of pride.

Xia Jianqing was puzzled: "What are you proud of? You are not allowed to leave Beijing until the money that Jin Banhua owes me is paid."

Chu Liuxiang: ...

……

The four of them bid farewell, before leaving, Xia Jianqing gave Lu Xiaofeng a bottle of beard growth liquid, and Lu Xiaofeng was so moved that he almost left Huamanlou and followed him back to Beijing.

In the end, Chu Liuxiang blocked her back.

Chu Liuxiang went to rent a carriage, and the two began to walk to Beijing.

When I came, I was in a hurry because of something, but when I went back, I didn't have to be so anxious.

It is now April when all things are revived, and the branches on both sides of the official road are covered with dots of green.The small wild flowers on the side of the road are also blooming brightly.

The groom outside the car drove slowly, while the two people in the car were lazily lying down.

Chu Liuxiang was drunk, but he kept drinking the real wine that Xia Jianqing specially brought him.

The modern wine production system is complete, and the alcohol content is much higher than that of ancient times.

Therefore, it is rare for a person like Chu Liuxiang, who is not drunk after a thousand cups, to become a little drunk when he comes into contact with this kind of wine suddenly.

But fortunately, Chu Liuxiang was still half sober even when he was drunk, and he didn't play drunk casually.

At most, he just became lazy, so lazy that he leaned on Xia Jianqing's body.

He stretched out a finger in disgust and pushed his head away from his shoulder. Xia Jianqing felt a little regretful.

He began to regret bringing wine to Chu Liuxiang.

Xia Jianqing was very generous to his friends, and this was the first time he regretted it after giving a gift.

The drunk Chu Liuxiang was really clingy.

"Can you stop leaning on me?"

The clear and cold words rang above Chu Liuxiang's head.

Chu Xiangshuai rubbed his head, took another step closer, and continued to play dead.

In fact, Chu Liuxiang was not so drunk that he couldn't understand, but he just didn't want to get up.

The faint tulip fragrance hooked Shi Ling's nose, which was obviously the same smell, but it smelled particularly good on Boss Xia.

Chu Liuxiang was almost drunk to death in this familiar aroma.

But it seems that the sky is not so beautiful.

The weather outside began to become gloomy at some point, and the cold wind blew into the carriage, and Chu Liuxiang, who had already fallen asleep from the cold, woke up with a jerk.

When he got up, he saw that Boss Xia had already fallen asleep on the cushion.

Chu Liuxiang lightly tucked in Xia Jianqing's blanket, turned around and got out of the carriage.

The groom outside the car had already put on his bamboo hat and coir raincoat, and the thin strands of rain hit his face with the wind.

After a while, the soil on the ground began to accumulate water, and the heavy carriage was struggling to move forward on the road without people.

Chu Liuxiang straightened the curtain behind her to prevent the rain from leaking into the car, and said, "It's raining too much, I won't be leaving today, let's find a place to stay overnight."

The coachman said familiarly: "There is a Peach Blossom Temple nearby, let's spend the night there."

……

It was already late when we reached the temple.

Xia Jianqing was woken up by Chu Liuxiang, she was still not clear about it, and followed Chu Liuxiang into the temple in a daze.

Peach Blossom Temple is a well-known temple, famous for its gorgeous peach blossoms.

And now is the time when the peach blossoms are at their peak, and many tourists come here every day.

Today is no exception.

But it is a pity that the weather in April changed too quickly. The sun was still shining brightly in the morning, and it started to rain heavily in the afternoon.

Many people were left in the monastery and couldn't go out, so they had to temporarily stay for one night and go back tomorrow.

Xia Jianqing and the others came too late, and there were only two meditation rooms left.

There is a room for the groom, and they have to squeeze in the remaining room.

When several people walked in all the way, it was raining heavily, and it was useless to wear umbrellas and coir raincoats, and the clothes on their bodies were already soaked.

The accommodation conditions in the monastery are not very good, there is only a small wooden bed in the house.

But the two of them couldn't just sleep with their bodies wet.

Chu Liuxiang hurriedly went to ask the little novice monk, then turned around and rushed into the rain to boil water again.

His internal strength is not bad, Boss Xia's thin body is drenched by the rain, if he doesn't hurry to take a shower, he is afraid of catching a cold.

Before Xia Jianqing got off the carriage, he picked out all his clothes and put them in a wooden box. He hugged him tightly all the way here, but he never got wet.

He shook the bedding on the bed again, and spread the old clothes he brought over on the wooden bed.

The room that has not been occupied for a long time is full of dust, but it only stays for one night, except for sweeping the bed, there is no need to tidy up other places.

Chu Liuxiang adjusted the boiled water to a good temperature, and quickly asked Xia Jianqing to take a bath quickly.

Fortunately, the kitchen is next door to their room, otherwise they would be wet again after taking a shower.

Xia Jianqing didn't want to refuse at this time, so he quickly stepped into the kitchen.

Chu Liuxiang watched the stove boil water just outside the wall.

The rain outside became lighter, but the sound of the dripping rain was still loud.The flame in the stove in front of him was flickering, and the water was bubbling.

It can be said that Chu Liuxiang was in an extremely noisy environment, the sound of rain outside and the sound of boiling water in front of him filled his ears.

But miraculously, as time went by, all these sounds slowly disappeared.Now all he could hear in his ears was the sound of Xia Jianqing splashing water inside.

"Wow, wow——" Such a voice unexpectedly made Chu Liuxiang a little restless.

I don't know if he caught a cold from the rain, but now his whole skin is the complete opposite of the coldness just now, it has become scorching hot, and even his heart seems to be on fire.

"I'm done washing, I'll help you change the water, you wash it soon."

Xia Jianqing's sudden voice called back Chu Liuxiang who was in a daze.

Chu Liuxiang quickly got up from the small bench, picked up the kettle and walked in: "No need to change it, I just add some hot water."

Xia Jianqing:?

Is Chu Xiangshuai so careless now?Is this still the delicate boy he knew who wears perfume every day?

Xia Jianqing was a little confused.

Chu Liuxiang put the clothes brought from the carriage on the stool: "I put the clothes here."

There was silence for a while before answering: "Yeah."

……

The candles in the house were blown out by Chu Liuxiang who came back.

The wooden bed in the room was indeed too narrow, Xia Jianqing tried to squeeze into the bed as much as possible, trying to leave more space for the tall Chu Liuxiang.

But Chu Liuxiang didn't know what was going on, and leaned against the bed with all his strength, the two of them left a big gap in such a narrow wooden bed.

Xia Jianqing thought that Chu Liuxiang might be afraid of squeezing him, so he reached out and pulled back Chu Xiangshuai who was hiding by the bed and was about to fall.

"Everything you run outside will fall down."

Saying that, the kind Boss Xia turned sideways and hugged Chu Liuxiang tightly.

There was no way, the quilt was narrower than the bed surface, and two people could only cover their bodies if they were close together.

It's always cold on a rainy night, but fortunately there is a warm Chu Liuxiang under the bed to keep you warm.

Boss Xia finally fell asleep satisfied.

Only Chu Xiangshuai, who didn't even dare to make a sound, remained stiff and straight all night.

……

The next day, the refreshed Boss Xia dressed himself perfectly as usual.

Chu Liuxiang on the side was unexpectedly a little depressed, and his eyes turned slightly blue.

Xia Jianqing was very concerned about her friend: "Did you sleep well?"

"...It's okay." After speaking, she realized that her voice was a little hoarse, and Chu Liuxiang cleared her throat guiltily.

The breakfast prepared by the monastery is very simple, a bowl of white porridge and some pickles.

Chu Liuxiang ate quickly and stared at Xia Jianqing with her head propped up after eating.

Xia Jianqing was puzzled: "Why are you looking at me?"

"Would you like to see the peach blossoms later? I heard that the peach blossoms here are blooming very well."

Xia Jianqing was not very interested: "It's fine."

It's a pity that Xia Jianqing, who didn't want to watch it, finally did.

The peach blossoms are indeed very bright, so colorful that they bleed.

A terrified scream pierced the morning after the rain.

The belated sun didn't perform its duties, and everyone stood under the sun, still shivering.

"Dead!"
