The next day, Qiao Xianyong and Mao Mao went into the inner palace at nine o'clock to do some menial and heavy work. Although Mao Mao looked around furtively in the limited space allowed, he didn't even see the shadow of his godmother.
With.
The third child didn't know what he was busy with, and he rarely spent time with them. Only Manager Yu would occasionally point fingers and criticize when he passed by.
Staying with Mao Mao for the whole day, Qiao Xianyong responded selectively and cautiously to his various conversations. At other times, he pretended not to hear or dealt with the work at hand. At night, the two of them walked towards the escort room together.
As he walked away, Mao Mao couldn't help complaining, "Ayong, you are really the most boring person I have ever seen."
Qiao Xian never took it seriously, but he had no intention of defending it. He had been a taciturn young man since he was a child. Sometimes he didn't feel envious when he saw people who talked endlessly. In his heart, the only hero was probably Wei Hong. Although it was vague.
, he felt that the master also acted in many strange ways, but he had not seen it personally, so he did not feel much about it.
Wei Hong didn't seem to like children. When he was growing up on Broken Moon Cliff, children always had many willful and strange ideas, but Wei Hong never paid attention to him. His senior sister always coaxed him. Qiao Xianyong still remembers when he fell in pain while practicing martial arts.
, Wei Hong watched coldly from the side, but did not say a word. After Qiao Xianyong reached the age of fourteen or fifteen, the communication between Wei Hong and him suddenly became much richer. The two of them chatted as equals as friends, which made Qiao Xianyong's memory
Still new.
The night was already very deep, and all the people in the room were breathing and snoring evenly, mixed with the sounds of farts and teeth grinding. Thinking of the time on Broken Moon Cliff, Qiao Xianyong found it difficult to fall asleep for a while. After lying there for a long time, he felt
Feeling a little relieved, I decided to go out to relieve myself.
Qiao Xianyong gently opened the door, but there was no moonlight that night, and the sky was covered with dark clouds, as if it would rain at any time. The huge Baisha Escort Bureau was silent at this time, without any sound, and there was silence.
Qiao Xianyong looked up into the air, and suddenly his vision froze. He saw a black shadow in the distance tumbled into the wall of the Baisha Escort Agency! Even though there was some distance, he could still see where the black shadow had tumbled.
It should be the backyard of the inner palace that is isolated from the escort’s dormitory!
Who is it? Qiao Xianyong was nervous for a while. He didn't know who was so bold and dared to break into the Baisha Escort Bureau where all martial artists were employed late at night. Qiao Xianyong immediately thought of calling someone from the palace. After thinking about it, he immediately covered his mouth.
First, was it because he was dazzled and saw wrongly? Ever since he lost all his inner strength, he often had doubts about his eyesight and hearing.
What should he do? Qiao Xianyong struggled in his heart. If he didn't care, he wouldn't be able to cope with it; if he didn't care, it would definitely not be the best idea to wake up the people in the inner palace. Qiao Xianyong thought for a moment and had an idea. If this person is someone from outside the escort agency, there is a high probability that he will
He will also climb over the wall from the same place. As long as he waits outside the courtyard, he is very likely to be caught. No matter what, he can clearly see what kind of burglar he is.
Qiao Xianyong's method is indeed a very stupid one. After all, he is young and passionate, and he has never thought about what he should do if this dark shadow is a strong martial arts master and he faces him directly. Or maybe this dark shadow chooses another position to climb over the wall.
, how could he catch it? It’s just that he has a stoic character and is extremely resilient. If he thinks of something, he will do it wholeheartedly.
After Qiao Xianyong made up his mind, he tiptoed to the wall some distance away from the escort room. He took a breath and jumped up with all his strength.
"Pa", Qiao Xianyong fell heavily to the ground. After losing his internal strength, he could no longer be like before, jumping ten feet high. Moreover, he was tall and weighed naturally. No matter how hard he tried, he was still a few feet away from the edge of the fence.
distance.
Should we give up here? Qiao Xianyong probably never gave up on anything easily. He looked around and saw a century-old banyan tree growing more than one meter away from the wall. The branches were so lush that the branches were already dead.
They were densely packed and stretched outside the wall.
It seems that the only way to succeed is to use his childhood skills. Qiao Xianyong is very agile in climbing trees. With long hands and long legs, he climbed into the tree crown in two or two, and carefully grabbed a tree that grew out of the wall.
The branches as thick as the mouth of a bowl moved outward without making any sound. The leaves and twigs kept falling to the ground due to his stepping and grabbing, but Qiao Xianyong was about to climb onto the wall.
"Crack", the branch under Qiao Xianyong couldn't bear the weight of his body, and the place connecting the trunk finally cracked. Seeing that Qiao Xianyong was about to fall to the ground, at this critical moment, Qiao Xianyong dexterously climbed onto the edge of the wall and rode on
Going up, I saw that the branch was completely broken, falling straight through many layers of leaves.
Oops! Qiao Xianyong thought to himself, this branch is so thick, it will definitely make a sound when it falls to the ground, and it might wake up some of the escorts to come out to investigate, but there is no way to explain his behavior. While he was nervous, he saw something to the west
The sky suddenly lit up, and a very long bolt of lightning illuminated half of the sky! Then the roaring thunder was heard, deafening, completely covering up the sound of the falling branches.
I don't know if it's a blessing or a misfortune. Fortunately, no one will notice the strangeness of this tree. Unfortunately, the thunder comes one after another, the smell of moisture is floating in the air, and heavy rain is about to pour.
Qiao Xianyong did not hesitate anymore, jumped from the wall to the outside of the courtyard, and then huddled at the base of the wall, staring motionlessly in front of the inner palace and waiting.
The weather in late summer was really strange. Thunder came one after another, but it didn't rain at Baisha Escort. Qiao Xianyong squatted for about half an hour, and his legs and feet were already numb.
He was about to stand up and stretch his muscles when he saw a black shadow jumping out from the wall not far in front.
coming!
Qiao Xianyong jumped forward in one stride. Although he could no longer jump as far as before, he was still very fast due to his tall height and long legs. He approached the black shadow in just a few steps. As the distance increased,
As he got closer, Qiao Xianyong felt that the figure looked strangely familiar. He looked at it carefully and shouted out in a low voice.
"Xi'er, why is it you!"
The black figure probably didn't expect that someone would suddenly make a sound. After standing still, his body swayed slightly, and he was quickly turned around and pulled out a few golden needles from his bag.
Now when Qiao Xianyong faced this person, his judgment was even more decisive. He had been squatting for a long time and discovered that the person who broke into the backyard of the escort agency and came out again was indeed the young man Xi'er whom he had fought against several times on Mount Dai.
