safe house

Chapter 75 Dead
"Cracking" the slight sound of footsteps on the roof, it was extraordinarily clear in this silent night.

Chuncao and Xia Lu sat up quickly, a trace of cruelty flashed in their eyes.

"Don't move!" Luo Mingchuan's voice came through the bed curtain.

Her voice was very soft, very weak, without any trace of worry.

Chuncao was quite puzzled, "But..." This person has come to the door, so we can't resist, right? !
Luo Mingchuan didn't speak, Xia Lu and Chuncao could only silently watch out.

The backs of the two were straight, their bodies were tense, their hands were on the hilt of their swords, and they were ready to fight with others at any time.

Luo Mingchuan lay quietly on the bed, his big watery eyes were flickering, without any trace of worry.

"Pfft!"

The people in the room jumped down and came to the window lightly.

"Crack!" The plugged window was pried open.

"Who is it?" Someone suddenly shouted in the yard.

Immediately afterwards, there was a "ping-pong-pong" fighting sound.

Chuncao and Xia Lu listened intently, and thus judged that there were several thieves in the yard.

What kind of skills are the guards on Mr. Luo Xi's side?

"Say, who are you?" Luo Li asked in a deep voice after the fighting stopped.

"It's not someone. I went out to drink at night, and when I came back, I was worried that my wife would make trouble with me, so I thought about sneaking in through the window."

"This dead man, see if I don't tear her mouth!" Chuncao was furious, got up and rushed out.

Xia Lu was also angry, but she was worried that this was the enemy's plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain, so she dared not leave Luo Mingchuan's side.

"Let your mother's fart go!" Chuncao put the sword across the man's neck.

The sharp blade left a bloodstain on the man's neck.

The man said tremblingly, "Mother..."

"Mother, what mother? If this girl had an unfilial son like you, she would have been strangled to death long ago."

The man's eyes flickered, and he wanted to call "Lady" to make Chuncao shy, but unexpectedly, Chuncao turned out to be a pungent one, and he was not at all influenced by him.

Chuncao: "Say, what's the purpose of being sneaky?"

The man was crying, "I'm really going home!"

"You..." Chuncao was anxious, and wanted to chop off the man who was full of dung.

But suddenly, she thought of a sentence that her girls often said, "There is brother Luo Xi".

She turned to look at Luo Li, "This man, what are you going to do?"

"Report to the officials!" Luo Xi came out wearing a long robe, "and the owner of this inn."

Since it's not an inn's house, why charge for the rent?
"No, no..." the shopkeeper of the inn begged repeatedly, "This matter really has nothing to do with me!

But Luo Xi ignored it at all, turned to Luo Li and said: "Move faster, we have to hurry tomorrow!"

After Luo Li agreed, he left with the people.

Luo Xi turned to look at Chuncao, "How are you girls?"

Chuncao rolled her eyes, bowed her knees and saluted Luo Xi, "Our girl is asleep!"

Your girls are really big-hearted.

After such a big thing happened, he was still able to sleep?

Chuncao said with a smile: "Our girl said, with Mr. Luo here, there is nothing to worry about.

If I hadn't gotten thirsty to drink water, I wouldn't have known such a big thing had happened outside! "

"・・・"

Luo Xi didn't even know what to say.

"Okay, you go back and rest too!"

Chuncao politely agreed, "Yes, Mr. Luo."

In the past few days since we met, this is the first time that she respects Luo Xi so much!
Luo Xi's gaze didn't come back until Chuncao closed the door.

Regarding the change in Chuncao's attitude, he couldn't tell what it was like in his heart.

Si Mohan leaned against the ridge of the roof, looked up at the stars in the sky, and took a sip of wine from time to time, feeling very comfortable.

"Drinking here is pretty good." Yan Xun got out of nowhere.

Si Mohan glanced at him sideways, but didn't speak.

Yan Xun didn't mind either, he lifted his robe and sat aside, "Are you here to protect that girl?"

Si Mohan took a sip of wine on his own, not knowing whether he heard it or not.

Yan Xun continued: "Have we met? In Anranju."

The determined tone made Si Mohan pause while drinking, and then continued to drink as if nothing had happened.

Yan Xun: "What capacity are you staying by her side now?"

Si Mohan: "..."

Even though Yan Xun was eloquent and enthusiastic, Si Mohan remained silent.

Yan Xun also felt bored, but he didn't leave, just sat there quietly, staring at the closed door in a daze.

Su's mother flashed into Ding Xixi's room in night clothes.

Ding Xixi, who was wearing a white coat and sitting by the candlelight, stood up suddenly, "How is the situation?"

Mother Su shook her head lightly, "Liu San has been sent to the government."

To the government? !

Ding Xixi frowned involuntarily, "Whose idea?"

"Master Luo Xiluo ordered it."

"Liu San didn't say what we asked?"

"I said it." Su's mother was a little discouraged, "But Mr. Luo didn't believe it. Moreover, even the owner of the inn was sent to the government."

Ding Xixi sat back on the stool, and said slowly: "I never thought that Mr. Luo would trust Luo Mingchuan."

Su's mother couldn't figure out what her daughter was thinking for a moment.

She pondered for a while, and said: "That set of rhetoric... If you look closely..." It is indeed full of loopholes.

Then, she asked worriedly: "Girl, will Liu San..." sell us?
Ding Xixi sneered, "Then he must have a chance."

She never does anything unprepared.

·························
"Dead?" Luo Xi asked in a deep voice, "How did you die?"

Luo Li was also a little annoyed, "Just when he was about to reach the gate of the yamen, he died suddenly."

Luo Xi frowned and asked, "What's going on? What about the innkeeper?"

"Boss is fine!" Luo Li whispered.

"Murder to silence?!" Luo Xi clenched his fists tightly, "Hmph, I really underestimated them. I should let An Yi go with you."

Luo Li disagreed, "My lord's safety is the most important thing!" He's just an assassin, so let's die.

Luo Xi: "This assassin came for Ming Chuan?"

"This..." Luo Li lowered his head in shame, "I don't know either."
