397 The deep courtyard of Xiao's house, the long night dream of purple forest
At midnight the night before, shortly after Gouzhu sent a message to Xiao Di, the door of Xiao's house creaked open. Xiao Di was wearing a plain white coat and a white fox fur cloak, and was followed by a maid carrying a lantern.
I went out and took a look.
Her untied hair was fluttering in the strong wind outside the door. She carefully put her head out of the crack of the door and looked outside nervously, but she only saw an empty alley and no one.
"Sure enough, there are guests joking again?" She felt a little disappointed. Although she was nominally in charge of Zi Yao's customers, in fact there were very few Zi Yao customers, and she still had to serve a lot of Lan Yao and Qing Yao.
guest's.
When some boring customers get interested, they will use various methods to tease her. She also often sends messages to her in the middle of the night. But if she teases her more, she will be less likely to fool her.
But Ziyao's customers are extraordinary. In Duanlibaoshe, for a manager like her to be promoted to Ziyao's manager is already a very high level. Once a Ziyao customer expresses satisfaction with her service and gives her a compliment, according to Duanlibaoshe,
Without the rules of Baoshe, she can immediately be promoted to the level of deputy steward.
This kind of appreciation is just a ray of spiritual thought. As long as the guest injects this ray of spiritual thought into the purple key, the secret key management office of the Duanli Treasure House will record it for her. Their rewards and punishments are not based on the boss's alone.
See, all based on these cold records.
The position of Deputy Chief Steward of Distinguished Guests at the Duanli Treasure House is currently vacant. As long as she receives a reward from this patron, her status will immediately be completely different.
Therefore, today in the Duanli Treasure House, when Gou Zhu appeared holding a purple key, she seemed to have seen her lucky star, and she has been trying her best to serve this customer.
But the result made her very disappointed. Because the treasure the customer was looking for disappeared inexplicably, she naturally couldn't shamelessly ask for a compliment.
So when she suddenly received a message in the middle of the night, she felt inexplicably happy. As long as this person didn't really ask for too much, she would be able to win the praise after a few false concessions.
"Ahem..." Just when Xiao Di was disappointed, Gouzhu had no choice but to lie on the ground and cough twice. He lost all his energy, suffered multiple fractures, and suffered serious internal injuries. He couldn't get up at all and lay in the dark.
The dark ground looked like a pile of garbage.
Xiao Di looked down and almost screamed immediately. Fortunately, she reacted quickly. She covered her mouth with both hands, squatted down and asked, "Honored guest, is that you?"
"It's just an accidental fall." Although Gouzhu couldn't raise his head, he replied calmly, "Don't make any noise. I'll borrow a place to recover for a few days and then leave."
"Miss, I'll go call someone." The maid holding a lantern behind her also turned pale.
"Lin'er, don't call anyone. Carry this guest in with me." Xiao Di turned her bright eyes and immediately made up her mind. This purple key praise was right in front of her, it was easily accessible, and she relied entirely on her own strength.
What you got, why give up?
If her family members knew about it, the situation would be complicated. Her father, Xiao Sufeng, was a well-known cultivator from Zifu in the city of Two Realms. He was known as Master Sufeng and was cautious in dealing with others.
If her father knew that she had such a weird person with wounds all over his body at home, he would kick him out anyway. Then her cooked duck would be gone.
Xiao Di asked Lin'er to throw away the lantern, and the two of them grabbed Gouzhu by his shoulders and lifted his feet. They locked the door with a creak and then walked to the backyard through a path in the courtyard that was rarely patrolled at night.
Both of them are not ordinary women, but female cultivators at the third or fourth level of foundation building. With the luck of their bodies, it is not difficult to lift Gou Zhu's weight.
After a while, Gouzhu was carried to Xiao Di's room. Lin'er wiped the sweat from her head and said, "Miss, you won't let this dirty man sleep in your bed, will you?"
Xiao Di shook his head: "You forgot, there is a secret room under my house."
Lin'er looked surprised: "Miss, the secret room in your room is the top secret of your home. Even I don't know where the entrance is. He is an outsider, why don't you let him in?"
"You must never leak this to anyone, or I won't be able to forgive you!"
After Xiao Di gave a warning, he took out a jade hairpin with patterns engraved on it. With a thought, the inspiration flowed on the jade hairpin, affecting the magic circle in the room.
Suddenly there was a slight rumbling sound, and a seemingly seamless piece of the floor sank, revealing a large hole three steps square.
The two of them carried Gouzhu and placed him on the bed in the underground secret room. This secret room was originally set up for no other purpose but to allow the young lady to escape the disaster of destroying the family.
Although it is not spacious, the layout here is simple and elegant. There are thick stone walls on the top, bottom, left and right, which others cannot see from the outside. There are tables, chairs, beds, and food and water in the room.
A long pearl illuminates the room, and as long as the Pure Yang Pill is replaced frequently, it can continue to illuminate.
The stone wall is made of some special material, which can completely isolate the perception of spiritual consciousness. There is also some kind of confusion restriction in the room, which may be used to deal with the secret method that specializes in exploring spiritual consciousness and breath.
Xiao Di and Lin'er were busy in the secret room for most of the night, helping Gou Zhu change out of the tattered shorts he was wearing, cleaning his wounds, and sewing up medicine. They even connected his broken left arm and tied it up with pine boards.
After everything was done, Gou Zhu looked up from where he was lying, and suddenly he saw Xiao Di lying on the bedside with a smile and looking at him eagerly: "Dear guest, don't you know your surname?"
"My surname is Han." Gouzhu suddenly changed his mind and made up a random surname.
"Mr. Han..." Xiao Di said with a gentle smile on his face, "I wonder if you have the purple key with you?"
Although this woman had a friendly smile, Gou Zhu felt a chill in his heart. He was chasing her this night, and they were probably coming for this purple key. Could it be that this woman was so attentive tonight because of this key? But he
After thinking about it, this is actually not surprising. Because this woman is Zi Yao's patron and manager. If he doesn't have Zi Yao, what else is she in charge of?
"Yes. What do you want?" Gouzhu hesitated for a moment. If he didn't have the purple key in his hand, he was afraid of being kicked out immediately.
"Are you satisfied with my little girl's service tonight?" Xiao Di narrowed his eyes slightly and smiled like two crescent moons, which made Gou Zhu feel uncomfortable all over.
"Satisfied."
"Then can you raise your noble hand and inject your satisfaction into the purple key? In this case, my little girl will be rewarded by the Duanli Treasure House."
"That's it..." Gouzhu probably knew the reason for the enthusiastic service that night, and his eyes turned shrewdly, "Just wait a few days, when my injury is healed, I will do as you say, don't worry."
"This..." Xiao Di could not hide the look of disappointment in his beautiful eyes.
…
An hour later, the sky was just getting a little brighter. Deep in the Xiao family's house, in the purple bamboo forest separated by the water, there was an elegant bedroom. A young monk with an elder, round and white face sat upright on the bed, wearing a brocade suit to sleep.
He was wearing a robe, but he was not sleepy. A jade slip in front of him gave off a dim light, revealing the shadow of a figure wearing a black cloak, his whole body covered tightly.
"I'm afraid your plan has to be advanced." The young man said to the phantom, "My cousin secretly brought in a wounded person tonight. It is said that he is the guest of Ziyao from Duanli Treasure House, and he hid it in her room.
In the middle secret room. After much thought, if you don’t take down Xiao Sufeng earlier, I’m afraid you will have long nights and many dreams.”
"Idiot!" Unexpectedly, the black figure directly reprimanded in a hoarse voice, which made the young man's face feel awkward. "Now the whole city is blocked. Even if we succeed, we can't get out of the city. Isn't that a turtle in a jar? There is no way to do this.
, we can only wait until the city opens again. As for what you said about Xiao Di, it is indeed a trouble at this juncture..."
After the man said this, he suddenly thought of something: "You said it was a guest of Ziyao from Duanlibaoshe? I have inside information that a guest of Ziyao from Duanlibaoshe had a fight with the young men of the Taisui Gang.
, angered the city lord Lu Baiyu. The city is now closed just to arrest this person."
The young man's eyes lit up and he said with a smile: "Then I will hand over this person quickly. Isn't it a great achievement for the Lord of the City?"
The black shadow angrily yelled again: "Xiao Jian, you are still so brainless! If you reveal this matter, Xiao Di will be dragged into the water by you. What will happen to our plan? Without Xiao Di in hand, this matter
There's no way we can succeed.
