Chapter 82 You Can’t Hide Your Love for Someone

"Get water quickly..."

"Be careful, the beam collapsed..."

Wow…

The fighting has subsided, but the town is still not quiet. The town's police officers and Lifu are running back and forth to put out the fire.

The silver hooked horse face was holding the little girl and comforting the young couple. Tu Jiuji, who was as strong as a hill, although there was still a dead head hanging on the waistband of his trousers, he did not have the brutality of smashing the person into a pulp just now. Standing in the collapsed house where the flames were not extinguished, I was alone carrying the beams, searching for the people who were pinned down.

After Ye Jingtang watched from a distance at the entrance of the town for a moment, he picked up Sanniang, who was pretending to be injured, and walked towards the dim night with his back to the burning town, his expression a little complicated.

Pei Xiangjun leaned on Ye Jingtang's shoulder, looked back at the messy town, and said softly:

"You think there's nothing good about Jianghu?"

"Haha, I was born as a charlatan and I don't deserve to say this."

"I have been in the world for a long time, and I have this feeling. There is an old saying in the world, 'If one day, there is only fine wine and no stories in the world, it must be an unprecedented enlightened and prosperous age.' The fault is never the people in the world, but the people. Someone who becomes a charlatan.”

Ye Jingtang walked out of the city gate with Sanniang in his arms, and looked down at the mature and beautiful girl who was still looking back:

"Sanniang's words are quite philosophical."

Pei Xiangjun let out a faint "Humph~" and raised his eyes to look at the Night Terror Hall. He found that his handsome face was very close at hand, at an angle he had never seen before. Those bright black eyes were like stars in the night sky, which made people feel deeply. Crispy.

"Okay, let me down."

There was something strange in Pei Xiangjun's eyes. He turned over and landed on the ground. He patted some dust on his skirt and rubbed his shoulders:

"Hiss...it's so cruel..."

Ye Jingtang had already returned to normal. Seeing this scene, he came to his side again and held Sanniang's arm:

"Is the injury serious?"

"It's nothing serious, it just hurts a little."

Pei Xiangjun is a martial arts practitioner with a strong physique, but she is not invulnerable in horizontal kung fu. If she is not guarded and is hit hard by a flying hammer, pain is inevitable.

Ye Jingtang raised his hand and touched his shoulder, and found that the skin under the fabric seemed to be swollen. He frowned and said:

"You can just pass by, what's the point of hard connection?"

"Chen Miao is not a nobody. His martial arts skills are even better than Song Chi's. He just rushed to prepare for the rescue. I hid too fakely and could easily be spotted."

Pei Xiangjun said this and glanced at Ye Jingtang angrily:

"You know who I am, why are you rushing here in such a hurry? Let people see you and think that our relationship is unclear..."

Ye Jingtang shook his head helplessly and took out the bruise medicine from his arms:

"Go back to the ship quickly. Although it is a minor injury, Sanniang's body bones don't look like they have been beaten very well. It would be troublesome to leave a scar."

Pei Xiangjun was a little absent-minded and glanced at Ye Jingtang's side face. Without saying anything, he walked slowly towards the river bank, and then...

Where's the boat?

Ye Jingtang came to the stone beach by the river to look around, and saw that the river surface was sparkling under the moonlight. Apart from the dots of fishing fires, there were no traces of ferries anywhere.

"Well……"

It was only at this time that Pei Xiangjun remembered that when he ran out in a hurry to eat melon and watch the excitement, the boat was moving.

The two men watched the battle on the city wall and helped rescue the hostages. It took about a quarter of an hour to go back and forth.

The manned ferry was very light and had smooth winds and currents. Judging from the normal speed, it would have traveled more than ten miles away.

Ye Jingtang looked at the empty river surface, and suddenly felt like a fool who was "carving a boat for a sword", and said awkwardly:

"It seems like I stayed a little too long... Should I take Sanniang and chase after me?"

"Chasing sailing boats along the river is too tiring, so just rest here. There are many boats coming and going on the Qingjiang River. We can just wait for the next ferry to pass by. Xiuhe will definitely wait at the next pier."

Pei Xiangjun looked around and found a stone for washing clothes by the river. He walked over to Rouya and sat sideways, gently stroking her shoulders.

Ye Jingtang stood by the river and looked around. There was no trace of the ferry, so he picked up a few dry logs and hay from the river beach, lit a special fire stick with a fire sickle, and raised a small bonfire.

Pei Xiangjun saw Ye Jingtang's skillful and somewhat distressed look, and said softly:

"This guy is really good at everything. He has suffered a lot in the past, right?"

Ye Jingtang sat next to Pei Xiangjun, with his sword flat on his knees:

"It's not hard work. The border is very poor. If you can eat and drink well, you are considered a superior person. I have been escorting with my adoptive father since I was a child. I saw the scenery, drank wine, and listened to the stories of people traveling from north to south. I was quite happy."

Pei Xiangjun blinked his eyes, leaned a little closer, and said meaningfully:

"Shouldn't there be another saying, 'Look at the girls in all directions'? I'm sorry to say it?"

Ye Jingtang nodded with a smile: "It's true, but I was still young at the time and didn't understand these things. I just watched the vaudeville and singing operas, and I really didn't pay attention to the girls on the street."

"Understand now?"

"..."

Night Terror Hall was speechless.

Pei Xiangjun laughed "Pfft~" and stopped pretending to be a bad sister teasing an innocent little kid. Instead, he said:

"Sanniang, I am not as carefree as you. At a young age, I was brought to the Pei family to become the eldest lady. I never left the house and learned martial arts at home. I didn't know about Honghua House until I was fourteen or fifteen years old. Son. Then within a few years, your master left. Not long after my eldest brother took over, the burden fell on me..."

Night Terror Hall uses a fire stick to stir the bonfire:

"Sanniang has never been through the Jianghu?"

"No one has walked out. The capital has always been peaceful, and there are not many people in the world. After I became the helmsman of Honghua Tower, I didn't dare to show my face because I was not strong enough. I came out alone to watch the fun like today, which is rare. Come to think of it, It’s a pity. Well…”

Pei Xiangjun recalled the past for a moment, frowned slightly, and rubbed his shoulders with his hands.

Seeing this, Ye Jingtang hesitated for a moment and asked:

"Do you want me to show you?"

?

Pei Xiangjun blinked his eyes. His originally charming eyes now had a different meaning. He turned his head and looked up and down at Ye Jingtang.

Ye Jingtang raised his hand slightly: "I'm afraid that it will hurt my muscles and cause problems if it takes too long. Sanniang thinks it's not appropriate, so let's leave it at that."

Pei Xiangjun hesitated for a moment and didn't say much. He looked around and saw no one was around. He turned his back, loosened his belt a little, and then pulled open his goose-yellow shirt along his neck.

Rustling, rustling...

Silver moonlight intertwined with firelight.

Pei Xiangjun, who had his back turned, slightly opened the collar of his right shoulder, revealing his fair neck and round shoulders. His skin was as white and tender as jade under the light.

Half of the beauty's shoulders are exposed on the back, and not much is revealed. The only thing that can be seen is the goose-yellow bellyband tie, which is also obscured by the bun.

But the plump and voluptuous back, coupled with the charming temperament, and this little bit of half-dress, bring an impact that is indescribable, just like a charming fox under the moon.

Ye Jingtang subconsciously sat up a little straighter, but he didn't have the nerve to look around:

"Uh... I'm just talking casually, Sanniang..."

Pei Xiangjun looked back softly, his chin and manly red lips almost touching his fair shoulders, looking towards the Night Terror Hall with a serious and dignified expression:

"Jingtang, you know who I am to you. It's just my shoulders, not my clothes. If you have evil intentions, just think I've misjudged you..."

Ye Jingtang sighed and sat closer to check his shoulders as usual.

Where the shoulder was rubbed by the hammer, there was obviously a bruise, just like an ink stain on a flawless jade. Although it was not serious, it was very dazzling.

In addition, looking over the shoulder, you can see the collarbone, but Pei Xiangjun is covering his collar with his hands, so he can't see anything spectacular.

Ye Jingtang looked as usual, showing no lust. He took out the Jade Dragon Cream and applied it on the bruised area with his fingers.

"Oh~..."

With just a touch, Pei Xiangjun's shoulders shrank and he turned around:

"Take it easy~ Do you think I'm as thick-skinned as you?"

"oh."

Ye Jingtang used his fingers lightly and applied it slowly.

Pei Xiangjun's face was a little red, but he kept the dignity and calmness that a female leader should have. He turned around and looked around, and saw that Ye Jingtang's expression was solemn, as serious as offering incense to his ancestors. While he felt peaceful, he was also a little funny.

Ye Jingtang is a very humble gentleman and knows not to look around. Pei Xiangjun naturally relaxed, looked at the river scene, and asked casually:

"Jingtang, you like that girl, where is she from?"

Ye Jingtang carefully applied medicine to the bruises and said with a smile:

"Why does Sanniang ask this?"

"I'm just curious. You will be the young master of Honghua Mansion from now on. My half-apprentice was abducted by the wild flowers outside. Naturally, I feel distressed. Isn't it okay to ask?"

"Haha, it's the heroine from Tiannan."

"How are you doing? Are you good to you?"

Very cruel to me!

When Ye Jingtang talked about this, he couldn't help but think of Luo Ning's "humiliated chivalrous girl" look with her head tilted to one side and tears in her eyes, and she said with a smile:

"Hmm... I'm usually cold, reclusive, and very green. But in front of me, I'm more lively, clean the house quickly, cook delicious food, and I'm very virtuous..."

Pei Xiangjun quietly turned his head and glanced, and he could clearly see the nostalgia in Ye Jingtang's eyes, as well as the joy when he mentioned his 'love one', which was exactly what he said, 'you can't hide your love for someone's eyes'.

Pei Xiangjun blinked his apricot eyes. After applying the medicine, he pulled up his collar, straightened his clothes, and sighed softly:

"You must cherish such a good girl and find a way to let her live in the capital. Come to Pei's house and I will have a companion. To be honest, I am not worried about a heroine who has conquered the country and is running around alone in the world. You are also big-hearted.”

How could Ye Jingtang rest assured, but Luo Ning's attitude was so stubborn, he had no choice but to say:

"I'll be back at the end of this month. Speaking of which, Sanniang doesn't have a crush on her either. Have you ever thought about getting married?"

Pei Xiang turned around and raised his chest slightly, indicating his strong family background:

"I'm the helmsman of Honghua Mansion. I can't marry outside, I can only recruit a wife. My family is extremely wealthy, I'm very skilled in martial arts, I'm good-looking, and my weight in the world is quite high. What kind of wife do you think I should recruit? Men? I don’t look down on you. A man with ability and status will not be offended by someone who knocks on the door..."

Ye Jingtang thought about it and frowned: "What should we do?"

"What else can I do? When the day comes when I have no choice, I will find a suitable disciple in Qinglong Hall to marry, so as not to let anyone else marry me. Your eldest aunt has a candidate, do you want to hear about it?"

"..."

Ye Jingtang didn't want to hear it, so he shook his head and said, "Marriage is a big deal, but we can't be hasty. Sanniang still has to make her own decision."

"What kind of decision can I make on my own? Regarding marriage, I have to listen to my parents' orders and the matchmaker's words..."

When Pei Xiangjun said this, he saw a brightly lit ship floating upstream of the Qingjiang River. He stopped talking after thinking about it, and stood up with a soft sigh:

"The ship is here, let's go."

Seeing this, Ye Jingtang put out the bonfire, jumped into the river together, and flew away...

OR2 will be released in the early morning of the day after tomorrow!

I have to code every day, but I don’t have the inspiration to write high-quality chapters every day. It’s a very helpless thing to say...
