Chapter 24 First Encounter

The nobles and nobles, the noble families either live in seclusion or clusters. There is Langfang in Wu State, and Dongyuan in Liu State, but it is a long street. The mansions on both sides of the street are all the mansions of important officials in Liu State. The first one on the west side of Dongyuan is the Duke's Mansion. It looks not magnificent outside, but tall and strict. The two stone lions at the door are majestic and majestic, and extraordinary spirit, which is worthy of the identity of Duke Li.

The closer he got to the Duke's Mansion, the faster An Bochen's heartbeat. He had always been here, but he had always been with the young master. He had never been as scared as today. Taking a deep breath, An Bochen was less than ten steps away from the mansion. At this moment, a figure flashed in the afterglow. An Bochen turned around and looked at the end of the street corner, and his expression suddenly changed. Four or five horses were hanging on the street, with cotton cloth wrapped around the horse's hooves, wandering silently. The horse knight was wearing a bronze fang mask and staring at him through the long street. Perhaps because he was afraid that this place was a heavy place in Liujing, he did not dare to approach.

It’s the ghostly Wang Xiner again!

An Bochen secretly shouted that it was not good, and his mind changed rapidly. Soon after, he guessed what she was going to do.

Today, she broke through her and Princess Liu during the day... In Sima Jin's words, it was a "lily" relationship. Since she was with Princess Li Zhu, she must be well-informed. Duke Huo sent someone to arrest "Prince Li", and his methods may be able to hide from ordinary people and ordinary officials, but it should not be a secret thing for a person like Princess Liu. Wang Xiner came this time, first to explore Duke Huo's attitude, and secondly, she saw Duke Huo taking the opportunity to capture him.

Anger rose in his eyes. An Bochen stopped looking at him, and walked straight to the Duke's Mansion, muttering to himself.

"This Wang Xiner may really think she will kill Master Li, but she doesn't know..."

As soon as he opened his mouth, An Bochen vaguely felt something was wrong. He frowned and couldn't help but slow down.

While walking, he thought, just as he was less than four steps away from the stone lion in front of the Duke's Mansion, his body suddenly froze, his face turned pale, and his legs seemed to be filled with lead, and he could no longer move forward.

"Oh no, I'm trapped! If the young master really pretends to die and escape, with his friendship with Duke Huo, most of the food transfer orders may be handed over to Duke Huo early before leaving. What's more, if Mr. Xiao really wants to leave, why would he climb to the seventh floor? This is an extra move... Mr. Xiao, Mr. Xiao!"

An Bochen gritted his teeth and felt a deep depression in his heart. He thought he had been through the trap, but he expected that he would fall into Xiao Hou's trap, and what this trap intended was his life.

The night wind blew, An Bochen's spine became cold, and his expression changed again.

"No, Sima Jin..."

In just a moment, An Bochen was in a mess and wanted to rush back to Moyun Tower immediately, but the knight who was wandering at the end of the street in Yu Guangzhong was clearly visible, suppressing An Bochen's impulse.

If he ran back like this, Wang Xiner would definitely not let him go. Not to mention Sima Jin, even he would be unable to save his life. But if he rashly entered Duke Huo's mansion, he would fall into the trap of Mr. Xiao. His previous words were no longer useful, and he would still be dead in the end.

In front is the dragon and tiger den, and behind is a cliff. The young man in a blue shirt stands in a dilemma in front of the Duke's Mansion and sweats heavily.

The sound of the sound came from a distance. The elderly Dageng man walked carefully on Dongyuan Street with a paper lamp. An Bochen looked up and saw Wang Xiner's men and horses seemingly trying to avoid the lights and hang their horses backwards. An Bochen felt a little moved, and he saw the opportunity to go around the stone lion and run back. After running wildly, An Bochen wiped the sweat beads on his forehead and stopped. Looking back, Wang Xiner's men and horses did not chase him. An Bochen felt a little calm, standing in the back alley of the Duke's Mansion, thinking about whether to turn to Moyun Tower or enter the Duke's Mansion.

"Oh!"

At this moment, An Bochen felt a pain in the back of his head. He screamed and saw a stone rolling to the ground.

Amberchen turned around and glanced around vigilantly.

This is a narrow alley, located deep in the back house of the Duke's Mansion, it is deserted and quiet, how could a stone suddenly fly?

An Bochen was surprised in his heart, subconsciously looking at the sky, thinking that he was so lucky today that he didn't even let me go.

Unpredictable, another stone flew over, hitting An Bochen's shoulder and turned around suddenly. An Bochen saw a head "swooshing" on the high wall behind the left.

"Who is it?"

An Bochen was angry and shouted in a low voice.

But after waiting for a long time, he still didn't show up again. Amber Chen frowned and turned around and pretended to leave. As soon as he took a step, Amber Chen suddenly turned around and his eyes shot towards the wall like an arrow. He saw a young man with disheveled hair showing half of his head, holding the stone at hand high, and sticking motionlessly on the wall, his face was stiff, and he was sometimes blushing and red, as if he didn't expect that he would be caught by Amber Chen.

Thinking of the unlucky things that happened one after another in the past two days, An Bochen felt angry and couldn't help but scold him.

"Why are you smashing me?"

The boy on the wall did not answer, staring straight at An Bochen, with curiosity in his eyes, as if he had seen something very new.

An Bochen subconsciously touched his face and raised his head again, but saw the boy shouting softly, and the stone in his hand suddenly threw at him.

The stone was extremely fast, and An Bochen was stunned for a moment and could not react. As soon as he was about to shrink his head, the stone had already wiped his hair and flew backwards.

A scream came, and An Bochen subconsciously turned around and looked. Within his eyes, three green-faced knights flew backwards and fell to the alley. The movement was heard. The front yard of the Duke's Mansion was brightly lit, and even the ten large mansions on Dongyuan Street were noisy. The guards rushed out of the mansion with torches and sharp knives, and swept to the four directions vigilantly.

An Bochen secretly cried in his heart, and was about to find a place to hide when he saw the boy on the wall wavering to him and signaling him to come in.

When he looked around, there was no place to hide in the deep alley. An Bochen looked at the young man with a look of anticipation on his face, hesitated, and then nodded. The young man was overjoyed when he saw this, shrank his head and disappeared. An Bochen was confused, and the young man came out again, grabbed a rope and threw it at An Bochen. An Bochen caught the rope and was about to speak, but in a blink of an eye, his body flew up, crossed the high wall, and was "stuck" on the ground by the tall boy carrying his clothes collar.

What a lot of strength!

Looking at the boy with a slightly red face in front of him, An Bochen was secretly surprised. He shot down three adult knights at the same time with just one stone, threw out a straw rope and pulled himself through the five-foot wall without any effort, and then put him down like a kitten and dog. His strength has long surpassed that of an ordinary strong man. Could it be that he is also a practitioner?

The boy was only wearing a thin short shirt. The cool night wind blew, but his face remained unchanged. The boy looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, but he was half a head taller than An Bochen, and a little taller than Sima Jin. His slightly scattered long hair was not tied or tied, and he was casually draped on his shoulders. His face was pale but not that kind of sick white, as if he was born like this. Looking closely, his eyes were actually bronze, and his pale face looked a little charming.

Amberchen looked at the strange boy, and the boy was also looking at him, showing a few curiosity in the freshness. He saw the feet from the head, the head from the feet, and then looked at himself, as if he was comparing something.

After being stared at by the boy so straight, An Bochen felt uncomfortable all over his body, and scratched his head and said.

"Just now, thank you for helping me."

Inadvertently, An Bochen used the lines in the play, and the boy opposite him looked strange and lit up, but he didn't speak.

Could it be a mute?

Looking at a handsome young man, who was much more handsome than himself, An Bochen sighed in his heart a pity.

In late autumn, he only wore a thin shirt and had a hair disheveled, and did not sleep for the middle of the night. It seemed that he was not a child of a wealthy family. I thought he was from a poor family like me and wanted to make a living at Duke Huo's mansion.

As she thought about it, An Bochen couldn't help but feel a little sick and pity, and the anger that had been thrown into pieces was wiped out by the stones.

"You can't speak, so you can understand my words."

After patting the boy's shoulder, Amberchen said with a smile.

The boy still didn't say anything, but the curiosity on his face became stronger and stronger. He smiled and patted An Bochen on the shoulder. But he was extremely strong, and this palm hurt so much that An Bochen grinned. If it weren't for the innate true fire, he would probably have been swollen even if his bones were constantly being kept.

"Tap and tap."

An Bochen rubbed his shoulders and frowned. Seeing that the boy took two steps back, he was at a loss. An Bochen couldn't bear it, so he had to force a smile to comfort him.

"I'm not as strong as you, and I don't know you. Don't take such heavy moves next time."

"Next?"

A slightly stiff voice came from his ears. An Bochen thought to himself that it was not a mute. When he looked up, he saw surprise in the young man's eyes.

But in a flash, Amberchen's face froze, and he finally knew why the young man had stopped talking.

The moonlight fell, reflecting the face of the young man with green eyes. Under his high nose, his lips were wide open, revealing a pair of pointed tiger teeth, which shone under the moonlight, destroying his original handsomeness to pieces, and making him look particularly ferocious.

Seeing An Bochen showing a shocked look, the boy also reacted, his face turned red, and although he was forced to calm down, he could not hide the disappointment in his eyes. After a while, he roared at An Bochen with grievance, turned around and was about to escape.

"Are you... born with a bottomless pit?"

After calming down his mind, An Bochen asked in a low voice, and saw the young man stop suddenly.

His chest was slightly ups and downs. The boy turned around for a long time, looked at An Bochen in confusion, and asked after hesitation for a moment.

"Aren't you afraid of me?"

"It's too late to envy, why should you be afraid?"

An Bochen asked in confusion.
