"If you continue to shout so loudly, your mother will wake up, do you think she is worried?"

Fu Zhenhong's tone was gentle, neither fast nor slow, and there was a distant emptiness in her clear voice, like the clear moonlight under the quiet and gentle running water.

This sound reaches people's ears, as if there is a magic power to calm people's hearts, allowing people who are flustered in their hearts to let go of their tension.

Mu Liuer, who was still trying to break free from Chu Liuxiang's shackles, immediately stopped struggling and shouting meaninglessly after hearing Fu Zhenhong's voice.

He looked in the direction of his grandmother, and the first thing he noticed was the monk in white who was standing by the bed and talking.

is a monk.

It looks very good-looking and has a very nice voice.

He looked gentle and gentle, and his white clothes were not stained with any dust, as if he was completely different from the humble poor like them.Looking at this monk in white, Mu Liu'er couldn't help but think of two words she heard from a poor scholar, elegant and elegant.

"Who are you?" Mu Liu'er almost broke away.

After the words were finished, without waiting for the other party to answer, Mu Liu'er quickly realized that since this monk came here with the big brother who was holding him, he must be a good friend of the big brother.

So his question was really childish and ridiculous.

In fact, although Mu Liu'er looks very thin, like a five or six-year-old boy, he is actually almost ten years old.The predicament of life forced him to become mature early, and his mentality was as close to the old as possible.It is precisely because of this that even at his current age, even if he is childish, Mu Liuer still does not want to associate himself with these two words.

He wants to grow up quickly, only when he grows up, it will be much more convenient for him to do anything.He can rely on his physical strength to make money and take care of his mother, instead of being tied up like he is now, not only can't protect his mother, but he is also held by the back collar, unable to break free.

Thinking of this, Mu Liu'er stared at Chu Liuxiang in annoyance, her brows frowning into a small Sichuan character on her unopened face.

Chu Liuxiang raised her eyebrows and asked, "Do you still remember me?"

Even though he asked like this, both Chu Liuxiang and Mu Liuer knew very well that Mu Liuer, who was one of the parties involved, would naturally remember, otherwise he wouldn't have ran away in a panic the first time he saw Chu Liuxiang.

Mu Liu'er wandered around in places like South Street, and at a young age, she understood the truth that a man who understands current affairs is a hero. After recognizing the current situation clearly, she took the initiative to show weakness and obediently replied: "Yes, but big brother, you can go first." Let me down?"

He called Big Brother Chu Liuxiang, his big round eyes blinked lightly, looking innocent and harmless.This moment reminded Chu Liuxiang of the state that the little boy showed on the night of the Lantern Festival.

It has to be said that Mu Liu'er's disguise was still very successful. If she hadn't known what the little boy had done, Chu Liuxiang wouldn't have been able to see that there were many unreasonable little thoughts hidden under such a simple appearance.

Chu Liuxiang just stared at Mu Liu'er for several seconds. He looked handsome, with a handsome face and an elegant temperament.On weekdays, when he smiles, he will give people a kind of willful and casual chic, but once he looks at someone blankly, the aura that emanates from the inside out will make people feel tense and oppressive .

After all, Mu Liu'er is just a child under ten years old. Even though he has a thick skin and is used to deception and disguise, he has not yet reached the level of composure after being caught doing bad things.

So at this moment, after stealing Chu Liuxiang's jade pendant and being approached by the rightful lord, Mu Liu'er was not in a panic.His heart was beating fast, and Chu Liuxiang's eyes made him feel uncomfortable, and there was sweat on his forehead.

Chu Liuxiang sensed Mu Liuer's emotional changes.

Fu Zhenhong also felt it, but he didn't intervene, but stood quietly aside.

Until the end, Mu Liu'er couldn't stand it any longer, so she lowered her head and said to Chu Liuxiang, "Big brother, I'm sorry."

After Chu Liuxiang heard what Mu Liu'er said, she raised her eyebrows, and then temporarily let go of her hand, and put Mu Liu'er down.

The solidity of his feet back on the ground made Mu Liu'er less flustered. He gritted his teeth and said pitifully, "I was also forced to do nothing." Unconsciously, he clenched tightly, and it was obvious that he was still very nervous.

Upon hearing this, Chu Liuxiang squatted down in front of Mu Liuer.Chu Liuxiang's gaze was level with Mu Liuer's, and he patted Mu Liuer's cheek lightly, with a lukewarm tone: "Tell me, who ordered you to steal my jade pendant?"

Mu Liu'er pursed her lips, recalled for a while, and was about to answer when Chu Liuxiang reminded her: "If you lie, I won't be as kind as before."

These words are a naked threat.

When Chu Liuxiang said this, there was a touch of coldness in his eyes that made people feel cold.

Fu Zhenhong was not surprised by this. If Mu Liuer, a little boy, was not threatened or frightened, he might not tell the truth.

Under Chu Liuxiang's eyes, Mu Liu'er hesitated for a few seconds, but answered truthfully, "It's a... a beggar."

"Beggar?" Chu Liuxiang frowned.

"Yes, it's a beggar, but that beggar wears a black mask, so I can't see his face clearly." Mu Liu'er seemed to be going all out, and said while recalling: "He is very tall, and his voice is very low. , and the accent is not from our Tiancang County side."

Fu Zhenhong asked, "How did you determine that the other party was a beggar?"

Mu Liu'er glanced at Fu Zhenhong, then at Chu Liuxiang, who was in deep thought because of his words, and then continued: "I observed it myself. That person's clothes are worn out, and the traces of mending are serious. There are many calluses on his body, and he is carrying a very well-made club."

Chu Liuxiang said: "Is it just based on one point?"

"No," Mu Liuer shook her head. "I have met people with sticks like that masked man several times. They are all beggars. I know that beggars with sticks like this are organized."

"Could it be that this matter is related to the Beggar Gang..." Chu Liuxiang's gaze sank.

"Yes, it's the Gang of Beggars!" Hearing what Chu Liuxiang said, Mu Liuer quickly remembered, "I heard that the organization of these beggars is called the Gang of Beggars!" As if to convince Chu Liuxiang that she was not lying, Mu Liuer He even raised his hand and swore to the sky, and finally, he grabbed Chu Liuxiang's sleeve and said, "Big brother, trust me!"

Chu Liuxiang did not respond to Mu Liuer, but looked at Fu Zhenhong.

"Wuhua, what do you think about this?" Chu Liuxiang asked.

After pondering for a moment, Fu Zhenhong said, "Maybe we should go to the Beggar Gang."

Chu Liuxiang nodded, "I think so too." It's true that he hasn't caught up with Nangong Ling, the leader of the Beggars' Clan, for a long time.

After Fu Zhenhong and Chu Liuxiang came out of the dilapidated Taoist temple, they ran into Lu Yuan, thick eyebrows and others within a short walk.Lu Yuan glanced back and forth between Fu Zhenhong and Chu Liuxiang, raised his eyebrows, "Are you done?" He finished his sentence, and then continued jokingly: "When you look for someone later, remember to look for me."

Chu Liuxiang frowned imperceptibly, he didn't pay attention to Lu Yuan anymore, what he was thinking in his heart was that after the matter was settled, he would definitely come to this South Street again, and use other things to get away from this man The string of prayer beads without flowers.

Fu Zhenhong glanced at Lu Yuan, didn't say anything, and walked out of South Street with Chu Liuxiang.

Looking at the backs of Fu Zhenhong and Chu Liuxiang leaving, the thick-browed lips moved a little, "Brother, do you just let them leave like this?"

Lu Yuan lazily raised his eyelids and said, "Otherwise?"

Thick eyebrows closed his mouth knowingly and stopped talking.

However, his gaze was still fixed on the back of the monk in white for a long time. Perhaps he would never see such a beautiful person again in his life.

The thick-browed heart couldn't help but sigh.

Lu Yuan glanced at his thick eyebrows, "Take the brothers and go to count the materials harvested today."

Hearing the words with thick eyebrows, he didn't think about it anymore, and immediately nodded in response, "Okay, brother, I'll go right away." After finishing his words, he pointed his eyes at others.

After taking several people away, Lu Yuan glanced in the direction where Fu Zhenhong and Chu Liuxiang left, then turned and walked towards a hidden alleyway.

Here, after Fu Zhenhong and Chu Liuxiang left South Street, they headed towards Shilou Inn.Now that they decided to go to the Beggars' Gang, the two discussed it briefly, and in order not to waste time, they planned to leave today.

However, things went against their wishes, Fu Zhenhong and Chu Liuxiang were forced to stop before they could return to the Shilou Inn because of the traffic not far ahead.

More than ten meters away from them, on the boxy arena, several people are signing up on the stage.Fu Zhenhong and Chu Liuxiang looked at each other, thinking of the event organized by Qian Yuanwai.

There are three competitions in total, namely piano, painting, and martial arts.

Judging from the situation ahead, this event should have just started, and it is the registration stage.A group of people surrounded the ring, talking in twos and threes, and the atmosphere was very lively.

Fu Zhenhong remembered that when she met Lu Xiaofeng at the inn this morning, the other party also said that she would participate in the competition with her friend Hua Manlou, but now Fu Zhenhong did not see Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou in the crowd or on the ring .

He scanned around again, and finally looked at the tall building due north of the ring. This tall building has two floors, and a screen divides the second floor into one left and one right in the middle.

And the left side is divided into six compartments, similar to small windows. There are several people standing in three compartments. These people are gorgeously dressed, and it can be seen that they have a high status in Tiancang County.

As for the right side, there is no compartment, and it is completely hollowed out, but it is covered with pieces of light tulle.A woman with a graceful figure can be faintly seen in the tulle. Behind the woman are two people with long swords hanging from their waists.

Thinking about it, this woman should be Qian Yuanwai's granddaughter, and the two people behind her are her bodyguards.

Fu Zhenhong was not interested in these, she only glanced at them and then looked away.

At this time, the registration for the first competition was coming to an end.

Chu Liuxiang said: "Let's go, go over there."

In fact, if Chu Liuxiang had nothing important to do, he might have watched the excitement of this martial arts competition, but as long as he thought about Tianyi Shenshui and the one-month time limit given by the jellyfish Yinji, Chu Liuxiang would lose interest. I was a little curious about this event, but I didn't plan to stay longer.

Fu Zhenhong nodded, followed Chu Liuxiang's pace, and let Chu Liuxiang open a way through the crowded crowd.

However, just as the two walked out of the crowd and were about to continue walking towards the front of the inn, a dagger pierced the air and flew towards him. Chu Liuxiang's reaction was also very fast, and he quickly raised his hand to catch the stab at Wuhua's face. Come dagger.

His eyes froze, and he looked coldly at the direction the dagger was flying from.

It is the right side of the second floor.

Almost at a glance, Chu Liuxiang was sure that the flying dagger was thrown by the woman, that is, the person on the right side of Qian Yuanwai's granddaughter.

And this person should be the guard of Yuan Qian's granddaughter. If the other party suddenly threw this dagger, there is only one possibility, and that is after the woman's instruction.

No matter what the woman's purpose is, such an approach is extremely inappropriate, even though Chu Liuxiang knew that Wuhua would not be hurt by such a trick, she was still a little sullen.

Through that layer of tulle, Chu Liuxiang shot sharp eyes at the woman in the middle, and the woman also raised her eyelids, but her eyes did not fall on Chu Liuxiang, but at the person beside Chu Liuxiang. Fu Zhenhong.

But at this time, the originally noisy environment had already become quiet, and some people who didn't know the situation also turned their attention to Fu Zhenhong and Chu Liuxiang on the ring.
