At night, Lu Shifu and Gu Xiaoshun return to the house with a cart of firewood.
"Why have you been so long?" Nanshi Niang went to the door and helped them carry firewood.
Master Lu quickly stopped her and said, "just leave it, I'll do it!"
"Just a few bundles of firewood." Nanshi Niang didn't like it.
"You can't move, can you, Xiaoshun?" Master Lu knew that he couldn't beat Nanshi Niang, so he took Gu Xiaoshun as a rescuer.
"Yes, madam." Gu Xiaoshun jumped out of the carriage and took the firewood from Nanshi Niang.
Nanshi Niang glared at Master Lu.
Gu Xiaoshun carried firewood and caught a glimpse of the red tassel gun and small basket in the hall. His eyes lit up: "ah? Is my sister back? "
Nanshi Niang said with a smile, "I'm back. I'm playing chess with Mr. Meng in my backyard."
Everyone in my family knows Meng Lao's surname, but no one connects him with the six kingdoms chess sage. After all, how can a person like the six kingdoms chess sage be regarded as a guest of honor even in the National Palace?
Gu Xiaoshun was so excited that he could not immediately put two chicken feathers in his head. He ran to the backyard with a bundle of firewood in his arms: "elder sister!"
Gu Jiao had washed and changed into dry clothes. Her hair was half dry and half wet.
Hearing Gu Xiaoshun's voice, she raised her hand and pulled her disobedient hair behind her ears. She turned her head and looked at Gu Xiaoshun: "Xiaoshun."
Gu Xiaoshun put down the firewood, came to her and looked her up and down: "elder sister, how did you go out so long? We're so worried about you! "
Gu Jiao bent her lips and said, "something's delayed. The academy has asked for so many days' leave. What's wrong with you?"
Gu Xiaoshun shook his head: "Oh, it's OK. I said you were sick. They wanted to see you. I stopped them."
"They?" Gu Jiao is at a loss.
"Master Wu, mu Qingchen, Mu Chuan..." Gu Xiaoshun said more than 20 names in one breath, because he only knew these people, and there were many names he could not name.
Gu Jiao: "well."
Is she so popular?
"All right, doll, you wait a moment. I'll finish playing chess with your sister." Mr. Meng can't wait. He has an account book in his hand. He has been with Gu Yan for more than 20 rounds, and the baby has to accompany him all the time.
Just as there was firewood left to move, Gu Xiaoshun scratched his head and said, "elder sister, I'll come to you later."
Gu Jiao: "good."
……
Gu Jiao came back safely. All the stones in the family's heart fell to the ground. Nanshi Niang decided to make something delicious tomorrow morning.
But the star anise and fennel were used up. Nanshi Niang decided to buy some from the shop.
There is a spice seller in the alley. It's just a few steps away.
But today their house is closed, so Nanshi Niang has to buy it on the street.
Lu Shifu was repairing the carriage at home. Halfway through the repair, he frowned: "why doesn't Nanxiang come back? Xiaoshun, you can fix it. I'll have a look. "
"Good!" Gu Xiaoshun took the tools in Master Lu's hand, and Master Lu walked out quickly.
At this time, Nanshi Niang did encounter a little trouble. She was blocked in another lane and injured. Her veil was covered with blood.
She covered her painful chest, raised her hand to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth, and shot out three Tanghua needles.
With a cold smile, the man raised his hand and caught her secret weapon.
Nanshi Niang's face changed.
The man looked at the Tang flower needle in his hand, sneered, and said: "it's actually quenched poison. You are more ruthless than before, but it's a pity that you and your father are not my opponents now!"
At last, with a smile, he shot three Tanghua needles back at Nanshi Niang.
South teacher Niang pupil a shock!
Too fast!
I can't hide it!
All of a sudden, a small figure came behind Nanshi Niang. She grabbed Nanshi Niang and pulled Nanshi Niang to one side.
Three Tanghua needles are nailed to the ground!
And almost at the same time, Gu Jiao points her long gun to the ground, jumps up with her strength, and stabs her opponent's heart with one shot!
The other side's backhand went to grab the body of the red tassel gun. Unexpectedly, it was a false move. The muzzle of the gun suddenly turned and swept his footwall!
The other side's eyes trembled, the tip of his foot was a little bit, flying up to the roof.
After stabilizing his figure, he looked at the young man dancing in the alley.
Holding the red tassel gun, the young man looked up at himself coldly, his eyes cold and rebellious.
"Just that shot..." he frowned, whispered, and then he lightly laughed, "Nan Xiang, is this the master you invited? I have to say that this guy is a bit unexpected, but even so, he is not my opponent! Look at the move
"Elder martial brother!"
Nanshi Niang hurriedly stepped forward, stretched out her arm and blocked Gu Jiao behind her, "don't hurt her!"
Elder martial brother?
Gu Jiao looks at the man on the roof again. It's too dark. His body is shrouded in the night. Gu Jiao can't see his skin color clearly, but the outline of his facial features is still indistinct.
This man has a pair of very evil eyes.
Originally, the appearance was excellent, but with these eyes, there was a sense of evil.
"Nanshi Niang, step back." Gu Jiao pressed Nanshi Niang's arm, walked forward fearlessly, pointed at him with a long gun, "come down and fight with me."
The other side was slightly stunned. Obviously, he didn't expect that the boy was not afraid of tigers. But soon, he laughed again.
"Younger martial sister, I really haven't seen such an interesting person for a long time. Since he called you a nun, it's barely half of my nephew. Well, I just heard that you have come to Shengdu, so I came to say hello to you. I didn't want to do anything about you. It's you who are so nervous that you started with me. "
Nanshi Niang gritted her teeth: "shameless!"
"Well, I'm done. It's time for me to go too. Goodbye, younger martial sister!"
After that, he gave a cold smile and disappeared into the night.
Gu Jiao turned around and held her small arm with her hand: "Nanshi Niang, you are injured."
Nanshi Niang waved her hand: "a little bit hurt. It will be OK after a few days. Why are you here?"
Gu Jiao said: "if you don't come back all the time, we'll come out to look for you. So does Lu Shifu. Maybe he went to another direction."
South teacher Niang slightly gasps a way: "go, we go back."
Gu Jiao holds the red tassel gun in one hand and holds Nanshi Niang back in the other.
When they walked out of the alley, Nanshi Niang gave a bitter smile: "I didn't tell you about me before. Do you blame me?"
Gu Jiao shook her head: "I didn't tell Nanshi Niang about me either."
South teacher Niang smile, don't have more secrets than she: "just that person's name is Qi Xuan, Tang clan big leader's direct disciple.". Tangmen is a force outside the six kingdoms. I used to be a member of Tangmen, but later I left Tangmen because I was dissatisfied with the marriage assigned by Tangmen. If my martial arts are still there, Qi Xuan won't hurt me at all today. "
Gu Jiao suddenly realized: "I see. No wonder the poison and concealed weapons of the nun are very powerful."
Nanshi Niang shook her head slightly again: "these two are actually the two things I'm not good at. Otherwise, I don't want to waste my martial arts, but my hands. It's true that concealed weapons and poisons are far above me. "
Gu Jiao asked suspiciously, "that lady..."
Nanshi Niang said: "I'm quite good at martial arts. In those days, there was an entrance guard skill in the Tang clan. Originally, it was not allowed to be practiced by our disciples. But later, the leader didn't know what to think, so he decided to let our direct disciples have a try. As a result, I was the only one who learned it. Maybe that's why I'm forced to marry the headmaster's son... "
Speaking of this, she paused and said with a smile, "these are all things in the past. Martial arts are gone, but it's good to live a carefree life."
"Then why did he just want to kill you?" Gu Jiaocai didn't believe that he just came to say hello. She felt the murderous spirit.
Nanshi Niang said: "he wanted to force me to learn the method of forbidding martial arts. Alas, where do I know what method? Learn to learn, who knows why they are so stupid? "
Gu Jiao
When she thought of something, Gu Jiao said, "what he just said is that he heard that Nanshi Niang had come to Shengdu."
Nanshi Niang sighed: "do you remember the steward surnamed Liao in Guoshi hall? Is that the man we asked him to go through the back door and take you to the palace of the national master? "
Gu Jiao had a little impression: "the one who was kicked out by Ma Wang?"
Nanshi Niang said, "that's him. He used to be a disciple of the Tang clan and met several of us. I think it should be he who leaked my whereabouts to Qi Xuan. But I didn't expect that Qi Xuan would come to Shengdu. It's not in line with the rules of the Tang clan. Since the last leader of the Tang clan, he no longer joined the world easily. "
Suddenly, Nanshi Niang thought of a possibility.
