Lord, your mask fell off

Chapter 184 Then let him guard

Late at night, heavy rain.

The shrewd woman walked into the lobby on the first floor with a large bowl of soup in her hand.

Huo Ling led people to patrol the ground, and when he saw the shrewd woman coming, he said immediately, "The store is still not resting so late?"

The shrewd woman said angrily, "Business people like us don't have any rest. It is our duty to serve you."

The shrewd woman walked to the table of the Eight Immortals, put down the bowl, and said to Huo Ling and the others, "It's raining so much, and the weather is cold enough. Come, drink some hot soup to warm yourself up."

Huo Ling heard the words and refused righteously, "No, thank you for the store's kindness, I will still guard."

The shrewd woman paused, and continued to persuade, "Drinking a bowl of soup won't waste your time, and your body will warm up after drinking it. Wouldn't it be more energetic to resist the cold wind at night?"

Huo Ling waved his hand, turned around and went down to inspect.

Seeing that Huo Ling was unmoved, the servants under him also stood guard without looking sideways. The shrewd woman deliberately shook the fragrance in the bowl with her hands. Even if the fragrance was overflowing, no one blinked. Cursing in my heart, this bunch of deadheads!

So she went down again with the soup bowl, and the two people in the back kitchen were a little anxious when they saw that she had returned without success, "What should I do?"

"It's really hard for these people to get in, but it doesn't matter. Looking at the weather, I guess it won't be able to survive the rain until tomorrow. You can wait with peace of mind."

If there is a delay at this time, the best moment has already been missed, the shrewd woman said viciously.

"Well, what the lady says is what she says!" The fat man squinted and said with a smile, because he was too fat, his eyes disappeared when he smiled.

Cook Scar nodded, "Anyway, these people can't leave, I'll just figure out a way tomorrow, and I went to the stable just now and found that there seemed to be a lot of good things in the carriage they were sitting in. If I can successfully take these people away Next, we may make a lot of money!"

"The group of people last time looked decent, but they didn't even have dozens of taels in their suits. It's a big loss!" The fat man said with disgust.

"So this time, we have to act cautiously. There are a lot of people, so be careful." The shrewd lady explained in a low voice.

The two nodded after hearing the words.

A night without dreams.

When Chu Qingyan woke up, she found that the sky was still dark, and she could faintly hear the strong wind still blowing outside. She wondered, could it be that she woke up too early, was it not yet dawn?

But when he turned his head, the bed beside him was already empty, obviously the big ice cube had woken up.

Chu Qingyan rubbed her eyes and stood up, while Xining outside heard the movement inside, and came in with water in her hands.

"Master, did you sleep well last night?" Xining came in and asked with a smile.

Chu Qingyan nodded, "Very good, is it still raining outside?"

Xining wrung out the cloth towel and handed it to her, "Yes, the wind is very strong. Although the rain has stopped, Master Huo Ling said that there may be another heavy rain today, and maybe we have to stay here for another day."

Chu Qingyan took the cloth towel and wiped her face and hands, and said with some faint worry, "This is the only way to go. The weather is not suitable for crossing the river, otherwise the consequences will be unpredictable."

After washing up, Chu Qingyan walked out of the room refreshed and stepped on the creaking ladder downstairs.

Xiao Xu and the others were already sitting down drinking tea.

As soon as Chu Qingyan took her seat, she saw the Supreme Emperor winking at her, and she twitched the corners of her mouth, "Grandpa, you didn't sleep well last night, your eyes were crooked?"

The Taishanghuang immediately restrained his expression, and glared at her angrily, "You just fell asleep!"

Chu Qingyan was in a good mood immediately, and it was the most fun to argue with the Supreme Emperor.

So Chu Qingyan enjoyed her breakfast happily.

"Stay for another day today, and make plans after seeing how the weather will be tomorrow." Xiao Xu said lightly.

Chu Qingyan nodded, "No objection."

At this time, the guard who went out against the wind came back, and he cupped his hands and said to his master, "The water level on the river is rising. If it doesn't retreat tomorrow, it will be difficult for the boat to go forward."

Hearing this, Chu Qingyan frowned, could it be that she won't be able to leave tomorrow?

"Well, keep an eye on the water level." Xiao Xu ordered.

As soon as the words fell, the heavy rain fell again.

The whole team rests.

Kong Ling was studying medical books in the room, Mu Ling was also tinkering, Qing Yi went to the stables to feed the horses, and Lu Yi went upstairs to tidy up the room.

At this time, only Chu Qingyan, Xiao Xu, the Supreme Emperor, Xining, Gu Rong and Gu Yi were left in the lobby.

Huo Ling came back after strengthening the guard, and saw the little princess counting the drops of water boredly, so he couldn't help asking, "Young master, take this opportunity, why don't you come and practice martial arts?"

Chu Qingyan was taken aback when she heard the words, and then saw the big ice cube following the sound.Suddenly, I felt a little sweat on the top of my head.

"Uh, I think it's good to have lightness kung fu, and it's good to just smear the soles of your feet when something happens!" Chu Qingyan rubbed her nose and laughed.

I don’t know if it’s because I left the capital, and the idea of ​​practicing martial arts is not so strong. I subconsciously feel that the capital is the most dangerous place. Without strong ability, I can’t protect myself. But now she has changed her mind a little bit. Only with force , without intelligence, it is difficult to protect themselves.So she didn't have such a strong pursuit of martial arts.

However, all in all, she is lazy, the scenery outside is too beautiful, she is far away from the disputes in the capital, the whole person is relaxed, and the sense of crisis is not so obvious.

Hearing the words, the Supreme Emperor hated iron for being weak, and said, "Don't hate it until you use it!"

Chu Qingyan coughed lightly, but she didn't respond, but she felt that the eyes of the big ice cube still fell on her body, and after thinking about it, she said, "Cousin, I think I can be your rear, and help you take care of the things behind you." How about taking care of things one by one, so that you don't have to worry about the future?"

You do your thing, I will guard your back, and all trivial things will not bother you.

Xiao Xu originally wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to let her grow up bit by bit, at least not relying on others.

But in the past two days, she fell asleep peacefully in his arms at night, and her thoughts slowly dissipated.

Forget it, let him protect it!

"En." In fact, she has already done a good job. From Xiao Ran's assassination to now, everything she has done has exceeded his expectations.

Faced with difficulties, she never backed down, and even when traveling, she considered everything.

Why should he demand that she be omnipotent?

That's enough!

Being forgiven by the big ice cube, Chu Qingyan breathed a sigh of relief. Although she has too many skills, she is not interested in martial arts. Besides, she believes that with the big ice cube, she is in danger, and in the end she will save herself from danger. of.

However, not long after, Chu Qingyan recalled what she thought and said today, and hated herself extremely, why did she refuse to practice martial arts in the first place!

The person who has always been omnipotent and so powerful that no one can threaten him will one day have a powerless side.

The heavy rain washed away many things, revealing its original appearance, but submerged many things, and let it cover up.
