When Li Danqing returned to Dafengyuan, it was already past Haishi.
The door to Xia Xianyin's bedroom was closed, and in the woodshed next to her, Wang Xiaoxiao was snoring like thunder.
Li Danqing seemed to be in a good mood. After making sure that the two of them were asleep, he took leisurely steps and hummed a little tune to the door of the last room in the small courtyard - that was the one in Dafeng courtyard.
study.
Li Danqing had seen it several times. The small door was filled with various books, but almost all of them were books recording the biographies of historical figures in Yangshan. There was nothing useful.
As Li Danqing opened the door, thick dust was raised and rushed towards his face. Li Danqing coughed violently and it took a while to calm down.
He lit an oil lamp, and then walked to the piles of books stacked high in the dim light. Unlike the previous time when he casually browsed through the books, this time Li Danqing clearly had a purpose.
He turned sideways and walked through the narrow passage between the "book mountains" and came to the back of the study. He put the oil lamp in his hand on the desk beside him, then leaned down and picked up the piles of books in front of him.
Putting it aside, he immediately picked up the oil lamp, leaned down and carefully measured the floor under the light, and at the same time stretched out his hand to tap lightly on the floor.
When the third floor was repeated, the echo from the floor suddenly became much louder.
right here.
Li Danqing's eyes lit up, and he put the oil lamp aside again, lying on the ground with his whole body, and groped along the cracks in the floor with his hands.
Soon he found two notches on both sides. Li Danqing grabbed them with both hands, gritted his teeth and exerted force with both hands.
Probably because he misjudged the tightness of the connection between the stone slab and the ground, Li Danqing just exerted his strength, and the stone slab fell off the ground. At this time, his body also leaned back and fell on all fours, with his feet in the air.
The pile of books was knocked over by him and scattered on the ground.
Naturally, Li Danqing looked extremely embarrassed, but Li Danqing didn't care. Instead, after standing up, he immediately looked at where the stone slab was. There was a pit there, and there was a crate wrapped in black cloth.
Li Danqing quickly took the thing out of the ground, put it in his hand and slowly opened it. An ancient book made of copper foil appeared in front of Li Danqing's eyes. The cover page was outlined with strong strokes.
With the four characters "Long Xiang Hunyuan".
"That's him!" Li Danqing's face lit up with joy, and he almost couldn't help but open the page of the book.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
A sudden knock on the door came from outside the study.
"Li Danqing! I'm in!" Xia Xianyin's voice came from outside the house. Li Danqing was so excited that he quickly stuffed the ancient book made of copper foil into his arms, stood up and put the stone slab back to its original place, and then messed around.
He used piles of books to cover up the place, and finally managed to cover up these abnormalities before Xia Xianyin walked into the study.
"Xiao Xianyin, what do you think of me? Or maybe you also find that the 100-person plan is too difficult, and you are ready to work hard from now on."
"This is a good idea. As the saying goes, if you take small steps, you will never reach a thousand miles. We should really hurry up."
Li Danqing put on a playful look again, looked at Xia Xianyin and said.
If she had seen Li Danqing like this in the past, Xia Xianyin would probably have gone mad on the spot again, but today, although she frowned slightly, she did not react as violently as before.
she just
He stared at Li Danqing for a while, and suddenly said in a deep voice: "Where have you been these two nights?"
"Huh?" Li Danqing was stunned, then a weird smile appeared on his face, and said: "Just walk around and take a look. Why is Xiao Xianyin worried that I am messing around with women outside? If you are jealous, you can tell me..."
"Are you exercising?" But his tried and tested gags in the past seemed to have lost their effect now. Xia Xianyin stared at Li Danqing without changing his expression and asked coldly.
Li Danqing's heart skipped a beat, and he secretly thought that this little girl had caught the clue. Just as he was about to say something more, Xia Xianyin's voice sounded again: "I did guess this before, thinking that you had encountered something big.
Difficulty, I finally understand how difficult your situation is now and know how to work hard!"
"But I never thought that at this juncture, you still want to go to a brothel and drink wine! You even want to use gambling to solve your immediate troubles!"
Li Danqing was a little confused. He looked at the girl in front of him who had a straight face and was preaching seriously. He wisely chose to remain silent.
"I might as well say it clearly."
"The bandits who attacked us back then had a very different background. They were probably sent by General Li's enemies. They would not let it go. You couldn't get the one thousand taels of silver and were driven out of Yangshan. Those bandits
Guys will definitely come back!"
"I thought you were more or less aware of this. You went out late at night to practice and exercise. You wanted to add some means of saving your life, but you didn't want to be the same as before, unable to hold up the wall!"
Li Danqing was a little overwhelmed by Xia Xianyin's scolding. It took him a while to digest the other person's words, and then he asked blankly: "So... are you worried about me?"
Xia Xianyin's face turned a little red, but she didn't know if it was because she was too excited.
"I'm worried about you! If Da Si Ming hadn't ordered me to protect you for half a year, I would have killed you right now!" Xia Xianyin said through gritted teeth.
"I understand, I understand. Women are like this. They talk what they mean, shouting to fight and kill, but in their hearts they love her to death." Li Danqing, who had let go of his guard, returned to his glib nature and said this while licking his face.
Xia Xianyin's face turned cold. She didn't want to engage in a verbal dispute with this guy that was destined to have no chance of winning. She stretched out her hands and started to unbutton her front shirt with a cold face.
Li Danqing was shocked when he saw this, and said: "Is this... so anxious? You don't start... without taking a shower or something...?"
Xia Xianyin was stunned and realized that what she was doing was inappropriate. She secretly cursed that she was so angry that Li Danqing was so angry that she glared at Li Danqing: "Turn around, if you dare to peek, I will tear your eyes out."
Dig it out!"
Li Danqing did not dare to touch Xia Xianyin's troubles. He turned around dejectedly and refused to stop saying: "What kind of gameplay is this... I have never tried it before..."
Xia Xianyin's face turned red again. She suppressed the anger in her heart. After confirming that Li Danqing didn't have the guts to peek, she continued what she was doing.
Li Danqing, who was standing on the spot, listened to the rustling sounds of clothes coming off behind him, and his heart couldn't help but feel a little itchy, but when he thought of Xia Xianyin's neat figure flying up and down with the blade when he chopped down the bandit, he still felt it for a moment.
Zhikuai made a wise choice with his wealth and life.
Soon the sound made Li Danqing's heart scratching like a cat stop, Xia Xianyin's cold voice
Came from behind: "Turn around."
Li Danqing felt like he was being pardoned, and quickly turned around to look expectantly, but there was no figure standing in front of him with the graceful figure he had imagined. Xia Xianyin's clothes were still on her body. Li Danqing was confused, but
At this moment, Xia Xianyin reached out and handed something over: "Take it."
Li Danqing subconsciously took the thing, but just as he took it, a huge force came from it, and his body suddenly bent down and fell to the ground.
At this moment, he had just seen what the thing Xia Xianyin handed over looked like - it was a pair of silver ring armor made of silver metal, covering everything from the neck to the limbs, and it felt slightly soft to the touch.
With a bit of coolness, the silver rings are small but densely connected. The craftsmanship is extraordinary at first glance. When you think about it, wearing it will not feel as restrictive as normal armor. It's just that this silver ring armor looks only thin.
It was a thin layer, but so heavy that it made Li Danqing, who was caught off guard, fall and the vicious dog pounced on it...
"This object is called Liuyin Armor. It is a treasure passed down from my ancestors of the Xia family. There were originally more than twenty pieces in total, but they were all lost after the disaster, leaving only this last piece."
"The Liquid Silver Armor is made of snow silver. It is difficult to be damaged by ordinary blades and is surprisingly heavy. This set of Liquid Silver Armor weighs over a hundred kilograms. Wearing this armor can not only defend against foreign enemies, but can also be used for daily practice."
The effect of the body.”
"You are now past the age suitable for cultivation. If you want to exercise, you have to work ten times or a hundred times more than ordinary people. From today on, you must wear this flowing silver armor every day... Well, haste makes haste.
No, the bones in your body look like they could be blown down by a gust of wind. You really can’t be too hasty. The hands and feet of this armor can be detached. You can first wear the flowing silver armor on your hands and feet. After your body is strengthened, you can then put it on.
Completely dressed.”
"The troubles in this Gale City will definitely come one after another. No one can say how long we can stay here. You must not slack off, otherwise the day you leave Gale City will be the day you die!"
Xia Xianyin said solemnly with a serious face, and only then did Li Danqing react.
Of course he had heard of this treasure that the Xia family was famous for in the Wuyang Dynasty, but he really didn't expect that Xia Xianyin would be willing to give it to him.
He couldn't help but feel a little moved in his heart, and even at that moment he had the urge to tell certain truths to the girl in front of him.
I don't know if he noticed the change in Li Danqing's eyes when he looked at her, but Xia Xianyin said again: "You don't have to thank me! This is just to complete the errand assigned to me by the Tianjian Division. After half a year, maybe I will
I’ll kill you with my own hands!”
Xia Xianyin's tone was cold, as if she wanted to draw a clear line with Li Danqing.
But Li Danqing didn't seem to hear even a single word. He just raised his head and looked directly at the girl, his eyes flickering inexplicably.
After all, Xia Xianyin couldn't stand Li Danqing's aggressive gaze. She held on to her momentum and said with a straight face: "Anyway... you have to take this matter seriously! Otherwise...
...Otherwise...we'll just wait and see!"
At the end of her words, her tone was already a little panicked. She could no longer stand the strange atmosphere in the room and Li Danqing's burning eyes.
After saying this, he turned around and walked out of the room seemingly angry, but actually more or less panicked.
At that time, Li Danqing looked at the girl's leaving figure, suddenly raised the corners of his mouth, and murmured.
"This little girl is as cute as she was when she was a child..."
