Chapter 58
"I was afraid they wouldn't say anything, so I had to resort to a little trick."

Ji Chonglian spread her hands, she didn't seem to care about it, but she knew that her heart was beating drums, her hands hidden in her sleeves had already clenched into fists, her nails were stuck in her palms, this was the first time her hands were stained with blood , but had to do so.

Pei Yan took a deep look at Ji Chonglian, but slowly shook his head, "From now on, I'll leave this kind of bloody thing to me, you just be that elegant lotus, and never get stained with mud again!"

Ji Chonglian covered her lips in surprise, a thousand feelings suddenly turned in her heart, complicated and unspeakable, a sourness hit her, she turned her head away quickly, her eyes were slightly red.

No one has ever said such a thing to her, like a kind of oath, but also like a kind of caring care. At this moment, Ji Chonglian felt warm in her heart, and Pei Yan's image in her mind was unknowingly improved. Some.

Ji Chonglian lowered her head, raised the corners of her lips slightly, and heard Pei Yan's voice again, "Your maid is fine, all the female relatives are gathered together, but I saw some girls who were with you , can only be distinguished from the clothes, but the appearance is unknown."

On the way to Guangfu Temple, the girls were all wearing veiled hats, their faces could not be seen clearly, but Pei Yan remembered the clothes they were wearing, and in retrospect, she was roughly sure.

Ji Chonglian stroked her chest, and she could rest assured that they were fine.

"Uncle Pei," Ji Chonglian bit her lip, and said in a low voice, "If you can communicate with the monks in this temple and take action at the same time, you can not only stop the robbers, but also save Fang Zhang and the pilgrims. In this way, you will no longer be restrained, and you can use your hands and feet to subdue them all!"

Pei Yan pondered: "I also understand this truth, but..."

There are indeed quite a few monks in the monastery, because the thieves held the abbot hostage, but they felt that there was no danger, so they did not restrain the monks and let them stay in the inner hall. On the abbot's neck, no one dared to act rashly.

Moreover, these monks have no organization and leadership, and they have completely lost their minds. They have no martial arts, but now they are scattered and have no countermeasures against the enemy.

Pei Yan just felt that it was not easy to gather this force, and it was also a problem who would notify them one by one.

If he exposed himself, it would be difficult for him to act smoothly.

"I go!"

After thinking about it for a while, Ji Chonglian understood Pei Yan's concerns. Without saying a word, she spread her silk handkerchief on the ground, and wrote a few words with a wooden stick dipped in Humpty's blood, and then tightly held the handkerchief in her hand. , smiled and shook, "You stay here, I'll let them come to you!"

"How does this work?"

Pei Yan frowned and disapproved, he was considering whether to send Ji Chonglian to a safe place first, how could he send her to the tiger's mouth again?

"I am small and a woman, so no one will be on my guard. When I get to the inner hall, they will only think that I have lost my way and broke in by mistake. Is it because I can do things cheaper than you."

Before saying these words, Ji Chonglian had already imagined various consequences in her mind. Since these people are asking for money, they will not kill people easily. One more head may give them more ransom. They will not be so stupid. Besides, it's still against a little girl like her who is powerless.

Thinking of this, Ji Chonglian's confidence suddenly rose, and she looked at Pei Yan expectantly. She also wanted his encouragement and support, "Besides, if I am really in danger, you will definitely come to save me, won't you?"

At this point, Ji Chonglian felt a layer of warmth in her heart. Although Pei Yan's temperament was volatile and people could not distinguish between emotions and anger, it was undeniable that he was the one who saved her from danger twice, and she did not. Knowing where the confidence in him comes from, he can be so sure.

"You girl..."

Pei Yan opened his mouth, but in the middle of speaking, he suddenly laughed out loud, which made Ji Chonglian feel a little baffled.

How long has he not tried this feeling of being trusted and attached?
Pei Yan laughed at himself, even though his father's reputation had plummeted and he lost power, they still had money, and the wealth accumulated in the family was enough for them to live without worry.

But in Pengze, he is a son-in-law who people think can never get rid of the dandyism of Shangjing; child of the world.

In their eyes, perhaps he, Pei Yan, is nothing.

But who knows the anguish and depression in his heart, he only loves the art of war and strategy, and reads all over mountains, rivers, geography and human relationships, but he just doesn't want to touch the stereotyped essays for academics. What happened to him, he didn't want to repeat this fate.

Fortunately, he got a famous teacher to teach him martial arts, and he finally made some achievements, but he didn't show it in front of people, so everyone thought he could only do some tricks, and because he didn't like to socialize and talk with others by nature, he also earned a reputation of being cold and arrogant.

He didn't want to explain all of this, and gradually moved further and further away from the crowd. At one point, even he himself thought that he was the special, weird one?
So that everyone stays away from him and doesn't want to get close to him.

But today, being looked at by Ji Chonglian's expectant and trusting eyes, he just felt that his heart, which had been empty and indifferent for a long time, was suddenly filled, and an inexplicable feeling filled his heart.

"Then you agreed?"

Ji Chonglian was overjoyed, her pair of pupils shone brightly, the sparkling light was comparable to the stars, and the faint and soft light firmly attracted Pei Yan's attention.

"how old are you?"

When Pei Yan suddenly asked such a question, Ji Chonglian was stunned, and looked at him with a surprised face, what is going on?

"how old are you?"

Pei Yan held back his patience and asked again, Ji Chonglian had doubts in his heart, but he had no choice but to answer him, "Tomorrow is my eighth birthday."

"Eight years old!"

Pei Yan sighed a long time, until Ji Chonglian and Ji had seven years left, at that time he was twenty-two, although he was a bit older, but...

Pei Yan shook his head with a smile, did he think too far?
But seeing Ji Chonglian's puzzled and speculative eyes in front of him, his smile deepened. This is a little fox, and it belongs only to him.

Is it her birthday tomorrow?Should he give her a big gift?
Pei Yan's big hand lightly landed on Ji Chonglian's shoulder, straightened her messy temple hair, and said in a low voice: "Remember my words, Tibetan bow!"

Pei Yan approached so suddenly, and even tidied her broken hair, Ji Chonglian felt her heart beating wildly, her little face turned red, and she even held her breath subconsciously. This situation was too uncomfortable for her. Normal.
