Chapter 77 Three people want to kill the sweeper
The night was as dark as ink, and the Chunyu Pavilion was deserted, so the man who swept the floor left quietly without anyone noticing.
After roughly identifying the location, a smile appeared on the burned face of the man sweeping the floor. Even though the smile appeared terrifying on his face, it could be seen that the man sweeping the floor was very happy.
The night wind blew, accompanied by a voice, which made the sweeping man who was about to leave pause slightly.
"Didn't you agree to leave it alone? You still have to go."
Behind the man sweeping the floor, the woman in red walked out slowly. Although there was a charming look in front of her brows, there was a strong sadness in her eyes.
When the woman in red appeared, the sweeping man stopped, then turned around very stiffly, and tightened his hand holding the broom.
The cold wind poured in from between the two of them, blowing the corners of the woman in red's clothes, and the woman in red's expression became more and more sad.
"I have to do some things. I just want to return this thing to the academy. I don't care about anything else." The sweeping man raised his broom and said helplessly.
"You still feel guilty." The woman in red said sharply.
"Yeah, I was wrong back then. After so many years, I have given up a lot, but this is a small chance for me to redeem myself." The sweeping man sighed.
As he spoke, his hand holding the broom became tighter and tighter.
"Last time." The sweeping man added.
The woman in red didn't speak, her hands hidden in her sleeves were clenched into fists, and her fingers were slightly whitish due to the clenched fists.
After about half a stick of incense, the woman in red let go of her hand.
"How much did the two of us pay to return to our current peaceful life? Do you really want everything to go to waste?" asked the woman in red.
The man who swept the floor fell silent, not knowing how to answer, but he didn't move half a step.
The woman in red slightly raised her hand and put it on her neck. Her thumb and forefinger seemed to pinch something, and she peeled it off.
That is a piece of skin.
After the skin was uncovered, there was a burned face under the skin, similar to a man sweeping the floor.
"In order to hide my name and destroy my appearance, Princess Jiu agreed, and she did. Sheng County is far away, but it is enough for us to live." The woman in red continued.
"I have to repay this debt, otherwise I will be in trouble for the rest of my life." The sweeping man said with a long breath.
At this moment, the woman in red suddenly put the belt back on her face, restoring her original appearance.
She stopped talking, turned around and walked into Chunyu Pavilion.
This action is very strange, but the sweeping man was stunned, unable to understand what happened.
"Go, I'm just telling you the possible price, but I can't stop you, husband and wife, if you really return to the old place, I will accompany you."
In Chunyu Pavilion, the voice of the woman in red came.
There was a hint of helplessness in the voice, but it was more of a kind of calmness.
The man who swept the floor was stunned for a while, finally gritted his teeth, and left Chunyu Pavilion with the broom.
…
Liu Mansion.
The night is dead.
Except for Xu Bai and Wuhua, everyone else has fallen asleep one after another.
Outside Liu Xu's room, a figure flashed past.
The man sweeping the floor came to the door with a broom, raised his hand and knocked gently on the door.
"Hoo..."
A sound of wind passed by.
A few pages of books flew out from the screen and condensed in mid-air.
On the page of the book, beautiful words appeared, sweeping towards the sweeping man.
At this moment, the man sweeping the floor shook slightly, and the pages of the book flew upside down and returned to the room.
There was a sound in the room, and then it fell into silence.
The man sweeping the floor was taken aback.
Before he could react, the door seemed to be loose, and it had been opened. It was empty inside, and there was a big hole in the ground.
"Is there still a tunnel?" The corner of the sweeping man's mouth twitched slightly.
Is this something that scholars can do?
Digging a tunnel in your own room, how cautious can you do it?
"Looks like it's time to pursue." The sweeping man thought.
Just as he thought about it, something happened, which made the sweeping man give up his idea.
"Hoo..."
The sound of the wind came out densely, and the speed was very fast.
The man sweeping the floor knew that it was late at night, so he hurriedly drew on the ground with the broom in his hand.
A word "quiet" appears, and the sound of wind disappears.
"student?"
The man sweeping the floor heard the surprised voice, raised his head, and saw dense lights approaching.
A book flew out from his arms, surrounding him.
Golden light fell on the pages of the book, and the sweeping man took a step back.
"Ding Ding Ding..."
The crisp sound landed on the ground, and the static characters in mid-air radiated light, and the sound was infinitely reduced.
The sweeping man looked down and found a pile of copper coins on the ground.
"It's such an exquisite concealed weapon technique that it can force me to take two steps back. Although it is the second level, but this person has cultivated to the level of proficiency, otherwise it would be impossible to force me back."
The sweeping man thought to himself.
Of course, as soon as his thoughts landed, he saw a head full of blue light.
"Boom!"
He banged his head against the page, but the silent characters in the air lit up again, reducing the sound.
The man who swept the floor took another step back, and finally saw that it was Xu Bai and the three of them, and shouted: "Wait! I'm not yours..."
The hidden weapon is Xu Bai's maple leaves like rain, and the blue light is without flowers.
Before he finished speaking, there was another movement from Liu Xu.
The pages of the book floating around the catkins turned burnt yellow, filled with an evil aura.
"Drawing Yin and Yang." Liu Xu pointed at the sweeping man.
This name sounds very inconsistent with the persona of a scholar.
A sense of drowsiness struck, and the man who swept the floor was startled.
"This is... the ability to absorb souls, aren't you a scholar?"
This sentence was not finished, because Xu Bai moved.
Using herself as a shield, Wuhua hit the back of the sweeping man, causing him to stagger.
And Xu Bai passed by...
Break one style!
The yin and yang are upside down!
At this moment, Xu Bai became illusory, unable to tell the real from the fake.
And this knife slashed fiercely on the pages of the book outside the man's body.
The man sweeping the floor only felt a force coming out of his body, and his chest hurt slightly.
he got hurt?
How can this be? Three eighth-rank ones actually hurt him?
He has already reached the peak of the seventh rank, and is only one step away from the sixth rank. How could he fall here?
The man who swept the floor frowned, trying to move the pages of the book.
But at this moment, Liu Xu held the Qingyun pen and slid in mid-air.
The scorched black pages covered his pages, and they were pulled faintly.
Although it is not strong for him, it is enough for a moment.
The scholar's body is not strong in the first place, but now the body is restrained by Wuhua, and the pages lose control for a moment.
But what made him palpitate was Xu Bai's knife.
As long as you are a smart person, you can seize this moment of loss of control.
The three of them teamed up, and the man who swept the floor, a master who was about to reach the sixth rank, was about to fall.
At this moment, the sweeping man couldn't bear it anymore and shouted something.
