Retrograde for thousands of years

Chapter 54 Little Secret

Her slender hands flexibly peeled the walnuts on the table, and her red lips took half of the snow-white pulp into her mouth, while the remaining half was placed in front of Zhou Huan for him to drink.

If you look at it from the outside, this is a submissive young daughter-in-law and her husband. But if the whole tavern is silent, even the owner of the store who delivers the food will not dare to look directly, let alone stay away from this place. A small town without even noisy children would give people chills.

"Sword lunatic..."

Zhou Huan shook his head, and there was already a vague suspicion in his mind. With a reputation that makes three-year-old children cry at night, Chen Yunying has at least done a lot of things to wipe out families. She is also one of the top masters in the world, otherwise she would never There will be such a prestigious reputation.

"I started killing people when I was eight years old. I practiced the most vicious and dangerous swordsmanship. My swordsmanship teacher said I would be hacked to death before I was 12 years old. When I was 16 years old, when I struck the Tang Sect with my sword, I never thought I could come out alive. , as for the person I killed..."

"To Niu Tanqin, I don't quite understand what you are saying, such as how awesome your record is, and who you killed, and I don't know the cause and effect, how can I evaluate it? Do I have to play the role of a nodding person? Ah, Miss Chen, are you so awesome?"

"You are so cowardly that you dare not listen."

Chen Yunying shook his head. At this time, the group of people sent by Kongtong arrived.

There were six adults in total, and each of them had expressions as if their parents had died. Especially after they saw Zhou Huan sitting next to Chen Yunying, their expressions became even more ugly.

"If you faced the Kongtong faction, could you win?"

"If I'm confused and don't use strategies, I really can't beat the Kongtong sect in full force."

This sentence is very correct. Back then, Zhou Huan couldn't defeat hundreds of thousands of troops by himself, but it was not difficult to inflict heavy losses on the other side.

"How about leaving this matter to me?"

Zhou Huan asked Chen Yunying gently.

"You can handle it if you like. Don't embarrass me."

"Thank you."

"This little brother is really sorry. What some of my disciples did at that time was really embarrassing. I will ask them to apologize to you."

The speaker was a middle-aged man in his 40s. He was not seen when they were besieged. He was probably waiting for someone in the town.

"Just embarrassing?"

Zhou Huan's eyes fell on the young man not far away, who shot a silver needle to kill Zhou Huan.

"Didn't your disciple say what he just did?"

"He said he left ten taels of silver behind after meeting you, but you didn't accept it."

The middle-aged man's attitude was neither arrogant nor humble, but it made Zhou Huan sigh in his heart.

"Did he say that he shot a silver needle into the back of my head just now?"

"Chai Jiayu, did you just do this?"

"Master, how dare you do such an ungrateful thing? Even if we retreated not long ago, we had to do it as a last resort. At that time, we didn't know whether there were still bandits or whether he was an accomplice of the bandits. So I chose to go first..."

The young man was very eloquent and had good acting skills, and he looked like he was from a distinguished family.

"This little brother..."

The middle-aged man smiled and said to Zhou Huan, but his eyes fell on Chen Yunying.

"I will check out your identification just now, and the Kongtong Sect will definitely give you an explanation. What do you think of this matter?"

"not good."

Chen Yunying on the side pushed a bunch of peeled walnuts to Zhou Huan's side, and said, "You tell them the facts, and they want to tell you the evidence, and you tell them the evidence, and they tell you the law. I have seen a lot, a decent family, a great Confucianist and high-ranking official, who did everything possible to deny it when they were not caught with evidence, and then said that you have no right to judge me after having evidence, Zhou Huan, you are too pedantic."

A ray of sword light bypassed Zhou Huan's side. The masters of the Kongtong sect who had been prepared for it quickly raised their swords to block, but the sword light was like a hot knife cutting into butter. The disciples fell to the ground at the same time like scarecrows, with a bright red spot between their eyebrows. Chen Yunying's sword energy shattered their vitality.

"The sword is for killing, what's the use of grinding it?"

Six corpses were lying in front of him, Zhou Huan's expression was stiff. "Do you have anything to say now?"

"Have."

Zhou Huan took a long breath, placed a glass of wine in front of Chen Yunying, and bowed deeply to her.

"Miss Chen, although you and I don't get along much, I owe you many rescues. I will keep this kindness in my heart. And I looked at you carefully. You are not a murderer or a lunatic. It's still early today. I would like to be here." I'll listen to you tell me your experience and why you killed someone."

"You are so bold..."

Chen Yunying smiled like a flower and raised the wooden chopsticks in her hand, and a sword light danced around Zhou Huan like an elf.

"to be frank."

"Sister, I'm just a useless scholar. I really don't understand why you want to take me with you and teach me. Can you tell me that you like the advantages in me that I can't change?"

"What, you see that I am interested in you?"

"Yes, eldest sister, you are such a powerful person, and you have walked such a long way with me. Even if I am a fool, I can still see that you treat me differently. Thank you very much for your helping hand along the way, but can you be happy? Tell me, what do you want to do?" "What do you say?"

Chen Yunying smiled mischievously, not looking like a female devil at all.

The imperial mansion outside the city thousands of miles away.

The head female guard is cleaning a courtyard with several confidantes. This is the former residence of Nanyang Princess Chen Yunying. After cleaning, only Chen Yunying's boudoir is left.

"You guys should be careful next, don't touch things that you shouldn't touch. I also remind you again that you must control your mouth. Anyone who dares to speak nonsense outside will kill her."

"Yes, Sister Sun."

Several people said very seriously that things in Chen Yunying's boudoir should not be talked about randomly, and they all knew this.

Unlike other girls' boudoir, Chen Yunying's boudoir is neat and simple. In addition to the most basic supplies, there are also two large life-size portraits of the great master Zhou Huan.

In this era, hanging a portrait of a strange man in a boudoir would have disastrous consequences. Only Chen Yunying dared to do this. At the same time, there were two Zhou Huan dolls, which were carved lifelike.

Chen Yunying admires the great master Zhou Huan very much. Many people know that she has been Zhou Huan's die-hard fan since she was a child. However, putting a portrait doll of a man in a boudoir is still too shocking to the world.

After a group of people cleaned up, they exited the room.

After a long time, a woman appeared in the room. She frowned at the furnishings in the room and shook her head.

"This little girl is really too..."

A ray of sunshine shone on her face. If Zhou Huan saw her at this time, he would be very happy. She is Tang Yunniang, Tang Yunniang who has not seen her for 200 years!
"I always feel like this room is weird. Let me see if this little girl has any secrets?"

He tapped his foot lightly on the ground, and an invisible vibration swept through the entire house.

"Here it is."

Taking a step forward, her finger pointed somewhere on the wall, and a secret door opened silently.

Tang Yunniang could see everything in the room without the use of lights.

It was a female boudoir, filled with various Zhou Huan dolls, wooden, jade, and metal, furry, honest and cute, wearing different clothes and posing in various poses. …

There are so many dolls gathered together, it makes people feel creepy.

"This girl is really crazy. What is there about Zhou Huan, that big idiot, that deserves to be worshiped like this? To make her obsessed with her to this extent... Think about it, it's understandable..."

Tang Yunniang sighed slightly and picked up a doll. Looking at the familiar face, she suddenly felt very uncomfortable in her heart.

"Brother Zhou, are you okay in heaven? I miss you, I really miss you."

The fluffy and soft Zhou Huan's doll on the bed made her cry.
