Two young girls walked side by side, one in a long azure skirt and carrying an azure oil umbrella, with a graceful demeanor, like a green lotus after a rain, and the other in a crimson short coat, with a crimson short knife hanging from her waist, and pink makeup, just like a red plum in the snow. The pen and fun pavilion www.biquge.info provoked a group of passers-by to watch and comment.

Xie Yixiang saw that Ning Cui was still carrying the cyan oil umbrella, and couldn't help asking, "I see that Miss Ning is extraordinary, I don't know where the teacher is?"

Ning Cui said with a smile: "Don't miss before and after, if the third miss doesn't dislike it, just call me Cui'er." As she spoke, she patted the oil umbrella behind her with her backhand, and asked rhetorically: "Third Miss, have you ever heard of Putuo Mountain in the East China Sea?" Xie Yixiang suddenly realized and said: "It turns out that Miss Ning is a master disciple of Chaoyin Cave in Putuo Mountain, and she is disrespectful and disrespectful. ”

When Xie Yixiang followed his master to learn art, he once heard the King of Swords mention that during the Tang Dynasty, the Central Plains communicated with Dongying and Goryeo, opening up the Maritime Silk Road. And Putuo Mountain is the necessary place of this maritime Silk Road, which is very prosperous, so there is a predecessor who integrates the strengths of the martial arts of the Three Kingdoms and creates a stunt of the Chaoyin Cave faction. I heard that the men in the sect mostly use fans as blades, and women use umbrellas more, and pay attention to the defense when they open, and the attack when they are combined.

Ning Cui saw that she broke through her master door with a word, and her face showed admiration. Xie Yixiang looked at her expression, knew that what she said was right, and was confident, and continued: "It rained heavily that night, Miss Ning, you held an umbrella to cover the rain, so you took a defensive position, which gave Wu Shengxi a chance, I don't know if I was right?"

Ning Cui had already raised his thumb high, but his face was feigned with anger: "The third lady still calls me Miss Ning, it seems that she dislikes me and doesn't want to make me a friend." Xie Yixiang couldn't help laughing: "You are older than me, how dare I call it that, it's like calling a girl." Besides, don't you always call me Miss Three?"

At the moment, the two reported each other's ages, were called sisters, and chatted endlessly. In a blink of an eye, I walked most of the street, and came to a delicate teahouse, Ning Cuiben took the lead and walked through this teahouse. Xie Yixiang went up to the second floor with her, and couldn't help laughing: "It turned out to be this 'Xiangyu House', the tea here is fragrant and strong, I often come here with my senior brother to drink tea in my spare time, I didn't expect my sister to like it too." ”

Ning Cui asked curiously: "Is your senior brother the one who is known as 'Jiangnan Yidao', the first person in the world ten years later, the famous Xian Jingyue?" Without waiting for Xie Yixiang to answer, she hurriedly said: "It is said that he became famous at a young age, and his sword skills are directly chasing his master Sword King, and his future is limitless. I only hated that I had come to Beijing for more than three months, but I didn't have a chance to see me. ”

Xie Yixiang listened to Ning Cui touting Xian Jingyue like this, and pulled herself in, which was very embarrassing. Seeing that there were no other guests upstairs, she found a table by the window and sat down, and said with a smile: "He is not some official who holds the power of the people's livelihood, so why is it difficult to meet him? I will ask him out another day." You must know that when the two met for the first time that night, Ning Cui mentioned her senior brother, and this was the second time she mentioned it, she couldn't help but ask tentatively: "Yes, I don't know if I have someone in mind like my sister, a fairy-like character?"

saw that Ning Cui's face was slightly red and sighed. She took out a white scarf from her arms, gently wiped the tables and chairs, and said quietly: "Over the years, the rivers and lakes have been scattered, and I have really never met a man who can be seen." ”

Xie Yixiang couldn't help but be slightly stunned, thinking that this Miss Ning was very proud. Ning Cui wiped the table and chairs, then sat down cautiously, and said: "My sister and I hit it off at first sight, so we told the truth, and I hope you don't want to be surprised." Although your senior brother Xian Jingyue is a young hero and a dragon and phoenix among people, it is said that he is arrogant and arrogant, so in my eyes, he is only afraid that he is not flawless. ”

Xie Yixiang said in her heart: "That's because you haven't seen Xian Jingyue, a character like him, even if he is a little arrogant, it is also a matter of course." But he smiled and said: "Sister's words are not bad, a character like you, I am afraid that there is really no man worthy of you today." ”

She didn't say this against her will, the Ning Cui in front of her not only had the appearance of sinking fish and geese, closing the moon and embarrassing flowers, but also had a lot of manners and gestures, looking forward to life, and was indeed the most beautiful woman she had seen. In contrast, even Xie Xunfang, the eldest lady of the Xie family, who has become a princess, is recognized as the first beauty in Jinling back then, and it seems that she is slightly inferior. However, as soon as the words came out, Xie Yixiang had an inexplicable thought in her heart: "If you want to come to this world, I'm afraid that only a character like Yan Sidao is worthy of this Miss Ning." ”

I only heard Ning Cui smile and said: "It's not that it's not worthy of it, what I'm looking for is the kind of unrestrainedness where the sea is wide and the fish jumps, the sky is high and the birds fly, and there is no room for the slightest restraint, based on this alone, I'm afraid no one in this world will dare to marry me." ”

Xie Yixiang said mischievously: "That's because my sister hasn't met her own marriage yet, and when you find someone worthy of long-term support, even if it is restrained, you are willing." ”

The two talked and laughed for a while, but no one stepped forward to serve tea, but it was Dr. Nacha who saw such a beauty as Ning Cui, and he looked stupid and stood far away. Seeing that there was nothing unusual around, Ning Cui put away his smile, took out a piece of paper folded only the size of a teacup from his long sleeves, and solemnly handed it to Xie Yixiang.

The two talked and laughed for a while, but they didn't see Dr. Tea come forward to serve tea, but it was Dr. Tea who saw such a beauty as Ning Cui, and he looked stupid and stood aside. Seeing that there was no one around, Ning Cui immediately put away his smile and took out a note from his long sleeves, which was only the size of a teacup. She thought about it for a while, and immediately handed over the note solemnly to Xie Yixiang.

Xie Yixiang was puzzled, and gently unfolded the note, only to see that the handwriting on it was beautiful, densely written with fly-headed small letters, which seemed to be a list. Ning Cui had already whispered: "Speaking of which, sister, don't blame, I found this list in Lord Xu's mansion, and because I felt that there was something wrong with it, I secretly copied it behind my back." Look at the names copied above, what's so special about them?"

Xie Yixiang's eyesight is excellent, and after reading it all the way, among the two hundred or so people on the list, there is Xu Mianrong's name, and she can't help frowning. After Xie Yixiang finished reading the list, Ning Cui asked, "Can my sister understand?"

Xie Yixiang raised her eyes to look at Ning Cui, and said slowly: "Now the face-ripping demon who is rampant in the capital has killed a total of thirty-seven people, I have carefully checked the information of the torture room, and there is absolutely no connection between these victims, not even a trace of commonality. But at this moment, these thirty-seven people actually appeared in your list at the same time, what kind of list is this?" Although she tried to say these words calmly, she still couldn't hide the surprise in her heart, and her voice trembled slightly.

Ning Cui was silent for a moment and said, "When I saw this list in Lord Xu's mansion, because there was a Burmese banyan on it, I was also very surprised at that time, just like you at this moment. I remember very well that the envelope of the original list was originally stamped with a seal, and the inscription read: 'The Governor's Mansion has been ordered to investigate the list of traitors'. ”

"Traitorous party?" Xie Yixiang's mind was shocked, and the thoughts in her heart were already spinning quickly: "Burmese Rong is the daughter of the historian Lord Xu, how can it be a traitor to the party?" and the 'Duwei Mansion' is the emperor's secret team, and everything he does is directly instructed by the emperor. If it is really as Ning Cui said, then this 'list of traitors' signed as the 'Governor's Mansion' will naturally be approved by the emperor himself. And the thirty-seven people killed by the Face-Ripping Demon are all on this list, so they ......"

Although this idea is extremely bold, this seems to be the best explanation: "Could it be that the so-called face-tearing demon turned out to be a killer sent by the emperor to hunt down and kill the traitorous party? ”
