It’s Hard Being the Bad Guy

This time, Wenyi went out for a long distance. Although it was called an errand, it was actually more of a trip to the mountains and rivers. You can take a look at the scenery along the way and get involved in any excitement, stop and go, froze. It stretched the one-month itinerary into two months.

After entering the boundary of the Western Regions, there was flying sand and loess everywhere. The three masters and servants crossed the vast desert and finally saw a prosperous city built on an oasis.

After entering the city, Wen Ai jumped out of the carriage excitedly, and walked on the street with two legs upside down, looking around curiously with her sullen eyes.

The Western Regions are of Gentile descent, their pupils are different from those of the Central Plains, and they have high noses, deep eyes, and a tall stature. Wen Ai glanced down the street, only to think that all of them were handsome men and women, but they all looked similar.

The women here are dressed in cool and bold clothes. The plump body is looming under the tulle, the legs and the chest, anyway, Wen Ai blushed and turned her head away. A sister wearing a veil next to him was cute and laughed at him. Tossed a sachet at him, Wen Ai subconsciously caught it, and then embarrassed in place.

Without treatment, he took the previous step: "Master Valley, let this matter be kept by his subordinates."

"No." Wen Ai felt it was not good to do it in front of others, so he hung the sachet around his waist.

Sister Veil was a little surprised, and then put her right hand on her left chest and bowed her head to salute him.

If you don't save it, explain to Wen Ai: "This action means thanks."

Wen Ai curled the corners of his lips and responded with a polite manner.

The three were settled in an inn in the city. They stayed with Wen Ai to protect them and went out to inquire about news.

The Demon Sect is not actually called the Demon Sect. People have a name, called the Holy Flame Sect, but the Central Plains Wulin is too demonized, that's why it gave them such a fierce nickname. The relationship between the torch cult and the local residents is very harmonious.

On the second day, Wen Ai stepped into the territory of the Holy Fire Cult.

The Sacred Fire stood on the top of the cliff, and Wen Ai handed over the greeting card very formally. People did not treat him differently because he was the original Chinese, and soon invited him into the reception hall.

The people of the Western Regions are not happy to make tea, the servants brought authentic milk tea, which tastes quite good. Wen Ai sat down in his seat, sipping milk tea, and wondering how to negotiate terms with the leader according to the plot.

There was a sound of footsteps outside, Wen Ai put down his cup and turned his head to look towards the door. A mighty and tall man walked in stride, making Wen Ai shiver across the distance. It must be the leader Lu Mingxiao who did not run. Up.

When Lu Mingxiao approached, Wen Ai saw a man and a woman behind him. The man's temperament was enchanting, and the woman's dress was rough. It was probably the left and right guardian mentioned by the dead.

Lu Mingxiao had originally walked straight to the main seat at the head of the hall, but Yu Guang accidentally caught a glimpse of Wen Ai in the guest seat, turned around, and stopped directly in front of him.

Lu Ming's whistling line was cold and hard: "It's you."

Wen Ai raised his head suspiciously, and met a pair of clear blue eyes: "Master Lu knows me?"

Lu Mingxiao pursed his lips, succinctly prompting: "Fuyin Town."

Wen Ai was stunned in his seat for an instant.

Lu Mingxiao waved to the person behind him: "You all go down."

As soon as the voice fell, regardless of whether it was the guardian of the left and right temperaments, or the servant who served tea and water, they all hurried out of the hall.

Upon seeing this, Wen Ai also said to his entourage: "If it is dead or not saved, you also go outside and wait."

He gave Lu Mingxiao a vigilant look, hesitated and didn't move, but he was forcibly pulled out by the dead when he was about to speak.

After the two left, Lu Mingxiao sat down next to Wen Yai, and then there was nothing to follow.

Wen Ai was also in surprise here. He really did not expect that the shaggy young man with no skin color was actually the demon leader used by the Central Plains to stop children from crying, and after washing his face, He looks pretty handsome.

The two of them sat like this for a long time, and neither of them spoke.

Lu Mingxiao: "You..."

Wen Ai: "That..."

The two spoke at the same time and stopped at the same time.

Lu Mingxiao coughed unnaturally twice: "You speak first."

On the contrary, Wen Ai seemed more casual, and said straightforwardly: "Master Lu, I am here to exchange something for you."

Lu Mingxiao nodded readily: "Okay."

Wen Ai was taken aback: "I haven't said what I want..."

"Ahem." Lu Mingxiao coughed twice, "Well, you said."

"I recently developed a new medicine that requires Shalian as a drug. I heard that—" Wen Ai looked at Lu Mingxiao, "In Shalian is in the hands of the leader, isn't it?"

"Yes." The words were directed at Wen Ai, but Lu Mingxiao's eyes were looking straight ahead. Anyway, he just didn't look at him. "I'll ask someone to fetch it for you."

"Wait." Wen Ai stopped Lu Mingxiao who was about to leave, "Don't you ask me what to change?"

The arm that Lu Mingxiao was holding by him froze directly: "No, you saved me, it's as a thank you."

The left and right guardians were called in, Lu Mingxiao gave the order concisely, and the right guard immediately retreated to get the medicine.

Lu Mingxiao sat back next to Wen Ai, and said nothing. Zuo Hufa looked at him sitting nervously, and he knew what was going on when he rolled his eyes.

"Master." Zuo Hufa dressed up enchantingly, and his voice was very charming, "Didn't you just received the original cakes from the batch? It's better to order the next person to bring them to Master Yin Gu to taste."

Wen Ai waved his hand: "No trouble—" I took my things and left.

Lu Mingxiao interrupted him, defending the law to the left and said: "You are good at work, you go get it, go and get back quickly."

Zuo Hufa's smile froze, and he digs a hole with me and jumps down: "Subordinates... take the command."

As soon as Zuo Hufa left, the empty hall became quiet again. Wen Ai glanced at Lu Mingxiao's tight-lined profile and asked hesitantly, "Are you not feeling well?"

Lu Mingxiao's face became tighter, and his tone was harsh: "No."

Everyone said that, Wen Ai was too embarrassed to ask further, sitting obediently drinking milk tea.

Not long after, the right guardian who had gone to fetch the medicine returned empty-handed and knelt in front of Lu Mingxiao: "The leader forgive me, the lockyue building was stolen, and Yin Shalian was stolen."

Lu Mingxiao frowned, and his whole body suddenly became frightening: "What's the matter?"

Right guardian: "According to the traces of the scene, that person should have sneaked into the Locky Moon Tower three days ago, and none of the other collections were touched, except that Shalian was stolen."

With a "bump", the table under Lu Mingxiao's palm shattered into powder: "Strictly investigate this matter to the end, and relevant personnel will not be punished severely!"

Right protector: "Subordinates do it now!"

Wen Ai sat sluggishly on his seat with a dumbfounded look: "System, there is a story of'India Shalian being stolen' in the plot?"

The system said painfully: "The little **** of the plot has left home again."

Wen Ai: "I didn't do anything???"

Lu Mingxiao's anger was not only because someone stole the treasure trove without knowing it, but also because the incident was stabbed out in front of Wen Yai, which is a big loss!

Lu Mingxiao turned his head sullenly, seeing Wen Ai with a dull expression, his heart jumped, thinking he was scared.

"You...I'm sorry, I just lost my mind." Lu Mingxiao calmed down his emotions quickly, and said softly, "Did you scare you?"

Wen Ai recovered, shook his head at him: "It's okay, I'm also angry when I change."

Lu Mingxiao solemnly promised: "I will find Shalian for you."

Wen Ai nodded and smiled: "Well, thank you."

Wen Ai has temporarily stayed in the Holy Fire Cult, and it is still a habit. Mainly thanks to Lu Mingxiao, who knows his gratitude, he arranged for him to eat and wear according to the customs of the Central Plains, and the Western Regions. The big grapes and cantaloupes that are abundant are picked and delivered every day, and this day is better than his life in Yinxian Valley.

At first, Wen Ai was embarrassed. In fact, he didn't do anything at the beginning, so he left some silver in a water bag, which was really not worth such a heavy return. Wen Ai went down to ask Lu Mingxiao to mention it in private, but Lu Mingxiao felt that he was worthwhile and looked like he had received a great favor, so Wen Ai didn't know how to refuse it.

Lu Mingxiao's generous hand, the Sacred Fire taught up and down to watch. Before, there was not even a waiter by Leng Ruo Hanbing. Now such a big movement suddenly occurred, the rumors spread naturally.

"Have you heard? Yesterday, Mr. Yin said that he had never seen an alpaca. Without a word, the leader sent Zuo Hufa to take people out to catch him. He caught dozens of them and returned, and he couldn't put them in the yard."

"Where did you hear the nonsense? The yard where Mr. Yin lives is bigger than the main yard, it is impossible to put it aside, but it is for the wife of the future leader."

"You take the word'future' out of the way, and it is the teacher's wife who is properly treated like Young Master Yin."

"Isn't this still unsuccessful? The leader rests in the main courtyard every day, and he hasn't stayed overnight with Lord Yin!"

"That's also a matter of time! Our Holy Flame is not far from the wedding event."

The two laundry ladies buried their heads, you and I gossiping, one of them raised his head, and when he saw the person not far away, his face suddenly turned pale.

"The leader, the leader, please spare your life!" The laundry lady shuddered her tongue, "We have no other meaning. Never, never dare!"

"The leader is forgiving, we don't dare break our mouth anymore!" The other also threw a plop and knelt on the ground, stretched out his hand to hold the left leg of the guardian's trousers, "Left guardian, please help us plead!"

Zuo Hufa kicked the people away, and couldn't sympathize with them at all. The leader has always hated these gossips, which was explicitly forbidden in the early years, and now they deserve it when they hit the gun.

"Master, how do you deal with these two people?"

Lu Mingxiao glanced at them and walked away on his own, leaving two words before leaving: "Continue."

Zuo Hufa froze in place, thinking about it for a long time before recollecting it.

After that day, the rumors about the master’s wife spread even more severely. The last latrine in Wen Ai can be heard two or three times along the way, but Lu Mingxiao has never said anything, Wen Ai is also not good to be passionate and want to be crooked. It was impossible to run to Lu Mingxiao to sue these servants, so he could only endure silently.

That night, Wen Ai thought the house was too boring, and sat alone in the courtyard, looking up at the night sky.

"Appreciating the moon?" Lu Mingxiao walked in from the entrance of the courtyard, "Do you want to go to the roof to enjoy it?"

Wen Ai's eyes lit up: "Okay."

"Offended." Lu Mingxiao grabbed Wen Ai's arm and took him to the roof.

Wen Ai lay down on the spot, resting his head on the ridge of the roof, and moved his body to adjust to the most comfortable posture.

The moon in the Western Regions is very big, and when I lie on my back, I feel that this round rhubarb cake is almost about to hit my face.

"It is said that people in the Central Plains will think of their hometown when admiring the moon." Lu Mingxiao sat aside and turned to look at Wen Ai, "Are you homesick?"

Wen Ai was stunned, thinking of the empty Neigu and the chicken coop full of dangdangs. After a while, he replied, "Somewhat."

Lu Mingxiao was silent for a while: "The case of Yin Shalian hasn't been clear yet, and I will increase my staff to investigate."

Wen Ai stretched out his finger to trace the round edge of the moon: "It's okay, I...not in a hurry."

Hearing what he said, Lu Mingxiao's mood suddenly relaxed a lot: "Want to go down the mountain? Tomorrow I have free time, take you for a stroll?"

Wen Ai lifted his mouth slightly: "Okay."

Lu Mingxiao didn't talk much. After the two talked a few words, there was no sound. Wen Ai lay on the roof and fell asleep.

Lu Mingxiao shook him gently, but didn't wake him up, so he carefully carried him back to the room and put him on the bed.

"Zhuo Yiqing..." Wen Ai whispered in dreams, "I want to eat egg noodles tomorrow morning..."

Lu Mingxiao grabbed the quilt's hand and suddenly paused, and it took a long time to put the quilt on Wen Ai.
