A gentle breeze blew through the bamboo forest, and the smell of blood filled the woods.
Chen Zhizhou looked around, held Gu Qing in his arms, and his eyes briefly lingered on the little girl next to him.
Even a master of the secret guards like Le Feng had never seen such a tragic scene.
This little girl is really crazy.
"Ma'am, can you still walk?"
Chen Zhizhou was worried that Gu Qing was scared, so he held her tightly in his arms. Liao Feng, who was standing beside him, carried the unconscious Cuiping back to Yinshan City first.
Gu Qing coveted the scent in Chen Zhizhou's arms.
He slowly calmed down, and after a long while he nodded and said, "I'm fine. This little girl helped us solve the problem."
Although he was wary and suspicious of this little girl, she did save his life just now. If she hadn't been there, the situation would have been even more complicated than it is now.
Chen Zhizhou responded and rubbed Gu Qing's head with his large palm: "Okay, let's go back first. The person is already dead, there is no need to worry about it."
As he spoke, he took Gu Qing and mounted the horse. The little girl followed behind them without saying a word.
"Why is she following us?"
Chen Zhizhou didn't know the whole story and felt unhappy.
Gu Qingnifeng turned around to look at her, sighed and said, "Forget it, just follow her. After all, she saved my life. I'll tell you in detail when we get back to the inn."
"good."
Chen Zhizhou agreed and pressed Gu Qing's head back into his arms: "Be careful not to catch a cold."
Tianfu Inn.
In the past few years, Yinshan City has never been so lively, with so many important figures coming in one day.
The servant looked at Chen Zhizhou's men and Gu Qing coming back together, and a hint of embarrassment flashed in his eyes.
The shopkeeper beside him sighed quietly, as if regretting something.
As soon as Chen Zhizhou and Gu Qing came in, the little girl followed carefully, deliberately keeping a distance from them all the way.
Gu Qing couldn't bear to look back, so he glanced at her and said, "Wait outside for a while, I want to talk to her."
"You and her?" Chen Zhizhou looked doubtful, as if he did not agree with Gu Qing's words.
The little girl opposite heard this and immediately said excitedly: "What does the master want to tell me? I will go up and wait for the master now!"
Chen Zhizhou spoke in a deep voice, blocking her way: "Wait."
"What did you call her just now?"
The little girl came up behind Gu Qing, carefully grasped her sleeve, stuck her head out, stared at Chen Zhizhou, and said with her tongue out: "Master! Master! I call her Master! What's it to you?!"
Gu Qing frowned.
Perhaps due to lack of discipline, this little girl's words and actions are very inappropriate and very unpleasant.
“Don’t be so presumptuous!”
Gu Qing shouted sternly, tilting his head and lowering his head in warning: "He is my husband, you should treat him as you would treat me."
The little girl looked at Chen Zhizhou twice and curled her lips: "Okay, Master."
Seeing her reluctance, Gu Qing looked towards the room on the second floor and said, "Go to the room on the left on the second floor and wait for me."
"Yes!" The little girl jumped up the stairs, very happy.
Gu Qing hesitated and comforted Chen Zhizhou: "The situation was urgent before, she pestered me to save her, so I used silver to make money with the Beggars' Sect..."
"You bought her from the Beggars' Gang."
Chen Zhizhou continued Gu Qing's words.
Gu Qing nodded: "You guessed it, that's what happened. Then she saved me in the bamboo forest and wanted to recognize me as her master."
Upon hearing this, Chen Zhizhou suddenly smiled and pinched her face: "Madam, you do have some fate with people in the martial arts world."
"This girl is from the Qinghe Mo family. The Mo family fell into decline in the martial arts world. She wandered around the world without any supervision, and later got into trouble with the Beggars' Sect. If it weren't for you, she wouldn't have survived until today."
Hearing this, Gu Qing nodded slightly, signaling him to continue: "Then, why do you look so happy?"
Chen Zhizhou's smile deepened. He stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes deep and far-reaching. "Just now I thought this girl was going to cause trouble for you, but now I see it's your good fortune."
Gu Qing: “???”
Chen Zhizhou kept talking in riddles, and Gu Qing frowned, thinking that he was deliberately teasing her.
"If Madam is curious, she will know the whole story after she finishes talking to her."
Chen Zhizhou looked towards the second floor with a slight smile on his face.
Seeing this, Gu Qing didn't ask any more questions, turned around and went upstairs into the room.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw the little girl sitting by the window, her legs dangling and half of her body sticking out of the window.
She was horrified. When the words came to her lips, she remembered that she was good at martial arts, so she swallowed them back and asked seriously, "What are you doing?"
"Owner!"
The little girl looked at Gu Qing and immediately jumped down from the window coffin. Her body was as light as duckweed, yet still agile.
He jumped up to her and said happily, "Master, what do you want to tell me?"
Gu Qing looked at her as he sat down on the couch, straightened his clothes and sat upright: "You sit down like me."
"oh."
The little girl imitated Gu Qing's behavior in a dull manner. As soon as her butt touched the chair, she started to stagger from side to side and couldn't sit properly.
Gu Qing's mouth twitched, and he said helplessly: "Forget it, do you have a name?"
"Yes, my name is Mo Yinghong, Master, just call me Yinghong!"
Gu Qing did not respond to her address: "Since you know your own name, you should also know who your parents are."
"I don't have parents anymore." The little girl lowered her head, her loose hair covering her dirty little face.
Gu Qing was silent for a moment, then his expression softened a little: "What do you mean?"
Yinghong took a deep breath, raised her head, and returned to her usual nonchalant demeanor, as if recounting a story that had nothing to do with her: "My Mo family has been known for producing assassins for generations, but due to the accumulated hatred over the decades, we were wiped out by our enemies one day."
"My mother stuffed me into a dog hole and let the beggars take me out."
After she finished speaking, a cold look flashed in her eyes, as cold as a killing god: "One day, I will avenge my Mo family!"
Gu Qing suddenly remembered how she had just killed someone, and her heart tightened: "If that's the case, you have such great abilities, and there must be a place for you in the vast world of Jianghu, so why do you have to follow me?"
Ying Hong suddenly stood up, knelt in front of Gu Qing and said devoutly: "My Mo family has a rule. Whoever saves my life will be my master. Ying Hong will protect my master's safety for the rest of my life. I will kill gods and Buddhas if they stand in my way!"
"you......"
Gu Qing's mood was very complicated, as he really didn't have a reliable guard around him.
After all, Chen Zhizhou's men are all men.
However, the way this girl lost control just now was really scary, and she was not sure if she could control her temper.
"What if I don't keep you?" Gu Qing asked word by word, looking down at her messy head.
Her messy hair was dry and split, and her whole body was dirty. Normal girls of her age would be carefree, but it was hard for her to live such a rough life.
Beneath him, the girl's deadly, deep voice echoed: "If the master doesn't want me, then Yinghong is useless and there's no point in living on."
