Chapter 67 Apprenticeship
As the breeze blew, the crickets in the yard chirped high and low, breaking the tranquility of the night. The pale white moonlight enveloped the bluestone-paved yard softly. The Xiao Mansion, which had been bustling all day, finally slowly fell silent. Waiting for the dawn to come.

As the sky was getting bright, Xiao Muyan took the lead and Xiao Tianyi left the mansion.After leaving the mansion, Xiao Muyan did not lie in ambush on the way to the palace, but turned to a dilapidated corner in the east of the city.

The east of this city is the famous beggar's nest, where countless beggars gathered. They were originally alone, but when there were more beggars gathered, they formed a gang similar to the gang of beggars.

Xiao Muyan dressed in white and walked into the territory of the beggar gang. She was dressed like a handsome young man. As soon as she stepped into the beggar's territory, she attracted countless strange eyes. Xiao Muyan who is out of place.

Xiao Muyan didn't look sideways, walked through a long and narrow path, and walked towards a courtyard in front of him with big strides.Before reaching the gate of the courtyard, he was stopped by a ragged beggar.

Xiao Muyan looked up at the beggar who blocked his way, and saw that although the man was wearing ragged clothes and his face was covered with stains of indistinguishable colors, he was a tall man with extremely strong cultivation. Look tall.

He glanced at Xiao Muyan carefully, and asked, "Little brother, although our place is a beggar's den, it's not something you can break into if you want to. If you go to the wrong place , I advise you to go back home early and go home to play with your servant girl."

As soon as the words fell, the beggars around burst into loud laughter, looked at Xiao Muyan mockingly, and someone shouted: "Young master, go home!"

Xiao Muyan was extremely calm, and she didn't move to leave at all. Her eyes were calm, and the corners of her lips curled into a smile, "Since I dare to come here alone, I naturally have no plans to go back. I have something to ask you to take care of." Yes, I wonder if the elder brother can introduce you?"

The man stood with folded arms, glanced at Xiao Muyan contemptuously, and said with a sudden smile: "Stinky boy, don't toast or eat fine wine, look at your small physique, if you don't get punched by me, get out of here quickly , don't look for trouble here, who do you think you are? Our boss sees you as a little boy?"

Xiao Muyan smiled slightly, moved her feet forward, the smile on her lips deepened a bit, but the bottom of her eyes was full of cold luster and said: "You think your boss won't see me? Who do you think you are?" , can you make the decision for your boss?"

The man's body trembled, and he took a few steps back unknowingly, and his heart trembled in fright at the thin-skinned and tender boy in front of him. This sense of deterrence seemed to be innate majesty, Unbearable awe.

His face twitched, his voice trembled slightly, and then he said calmly: "Stinky boy, don't use this to fool me! You'd better leave before this uncle gets angry!"

Xiao Muyan raised her eyebrows, the smile on her lips curled up a bit, she looked at the man in front of her sharply, and said in a cold tone: "I also want to advise you, don't miss your boss's business, be careful If you can't eat, go in and report quickly if you are sensible, otherwise, you will be the unlucky one today."

As soon as these words came out, the panic in the man's heart became more and more. He really couldn't figure out what kind of abilities this handsome young man in front of him had, but just looking at her aura, it was not comparable to ordinary people. It was as cold as winter The silver knife inside was sharp and cold.

The man was afraid that he would be the one who would suffer if he delayed the boss's business as the brat said. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but compromise a bit, "Okay, stinky... boy, you wait here for me , I’ll go in and report to our boss!”

Xiao Muyan nodded lightly and said: "It's up to you."

After that, the man turned around and hurried into the courtyard.Xiao Muyan stood on the spot with a calm demeanor, and the beggars who were booing all around were silent at this moment, looking at Xiao Muyan full of hostility.

In less than half a cup of tea, the man came out of the yard with a sullen face, walked to Xiao Muyan's side with great reluctance, and said in a low voice: "Boy, our boss told you to come in."

Xiao Muyan nodded, and said with a slight smile: "Thank you." After finishing speaking, she walked into the courtyard in a graceful manner under the eyes of all around.

Although the door of this courtyard is no different from ordinary small courtyards, as soon as you step into the courtyard, you will find that this courtyard is huge, about three times the size of ordinary courtyards. At first glance, it looks a bit like a training ground for martial arts.

The ground was covered with yellow sand, although the shadow of weapons could not be seen, Xiao Muyan judged that those beggars must be practicing martial arts here, but they just acted in a low-key manner in order not to attract too much attention from the court. It seems that he still underestimated this gang of beggars. Perhaps the scale of their development has long exceeded their expectations.

Xiao Muyan followed the man to a hut in the corner of the yard. The man stopped, turned sideways involuntarily, and said in a provocative tone: "Our boss is waiting for you in the house, you go in Bar."

Xiao Muyan smiled, raised his hand and pushed open the closed door, and strode in.The interior structure is simple, looking around the huge room, there is only one small table and two soft couches.There is a teapot with one corner missing and several teacups on the small table.

Xiao Muyan couldn't help but pause her steps, and scanned the room, but didn't see any figure, her ears couldn't help moving, and there was the sound of light and slow breathing.

She took two steps forward, before she saw the gray-white figure lying on the soft couch, with a head of messy and fluffy hair covering most of her face, and the ragged white clothes on her body could no longer tell the original color.

This old beggar was none other than the crazy old man who was sitting in the carriage when she went to the ghost market earlier. It turned out that he was the leader of this beggar. Since he was an acquaintance, perhaps this matter would be much easier to handle.

Xiao Muyan lifted her robe, and sat on the soft couch in front of her. Across the small bed, the beggar leader seemed to be in a deep sleep, snoring loudly.

Xiao Muyan sat quietly on the couch, picked up the shabby teapot on the small table, poured a cup of cold tea into a cup, but didn't drink it, and pushed it to the old beggar, smiling He said: "I didn't expect that senior and I were so predestined. After meeting for the first time, we could meet again for the second time."

The old beggar turned over, got up from the couch nimbly, sat up immediately, his gray hair was raised slightly, his sharp eyes shot at Xiao Muyan, he picked up the tea in front of him and drank it in one go He was clean, and casually wiped the water stains around his mouth with his sleeve.

The old beggar glanced at Xiao Muyan, lowered his eyes, put the cup in his hand on the small table, and said without emotion: "It's you, kid? What do you want to see me for?"
