The villain heroine is strong and sassy

That night, in the dark night, there were only two courtyards in the ghost gate, the south and the north. No one slept. Everyone had their own thoughts and lit lamps and candles until dawn.

I don't know how long it took, but Yue Li suddenly woke up from her dream. When she looked up, the sky was already bright. The candles in the candlestick in front of her were almost burned out. The big candle was about to go out at any time. The faint sounds of disciples talking and footsteps in the front yard drifted outside the window.

At this moment, the maid Taohong walked by the window and subconsciously looked inside the window. She saw her sitting under the window thoughtfully, so she asked curiously: "Huh? The girl is still sitting here. Today the young master is leaving for Fenghuang."

"Come on, my servant passed by the front yard an hour ago and saw that the carriage and horses had been packed up. He may be leaving the city soon. You and the young master have grown up together, why don't you go and see him off?"

Hearing this, Yue Li suddenly came back to her senses. She moved her arm to reveal that she was lying quietly on the table with a letter underneath her. She quickly stood up, grabbed the talisman, opened the door and rushed out: "

Taohong, come with me!"

Taohong was holding a water basin in her hand. After pulling it, she threw the basin and the water out, making a loud noise on the ground. She screamed and was blown away by the wind. Before she could see the face clearly, she was dragged along.

Run wildly.

Less than half an hour later.

Yueli pulled Taohong, who was panting and out of breath, and landed on the top of Qiyun Mountain, looking at the foot of the mountain from a distance.

At this time, Taohong managed to stand still, took two quick breaths, raised her hand to point to the three carriages passing below her, and said breathlessly: "Young Master...Young Master is in this car." After saying that, she sat down.

On the ground, he waved his hand and said: "Girl, girl, you can go on your own. I am no longer a slave. Take a rest... rest for a while."

Yue Li lowered her eyes and looked to her side, saying quietly: "I brought you here because I want you to do something for me, and rest after you finish it!"

Taohong was stunned, raised her face and looked in confusion: "Ah?"

Without waiting for her to respond, Yue Li reached out to pick the person up from the ground and handed the letter to her: "Give it to the young master and tell him to deal with it on his own." As soon as he finished speaking, he pushed the person down the mountain without any explanation.

Falling from a high altitude, Taohong suddenly broke into a cold sweat and had to use her Qinggong skills carefully to chase the carriage in front of her.

Bai Ying, with bruises under her eyes, was sitting in the carriage in front of her with her eyes closed and concentrating. Suddenly she heard a horse neighing and the carriage stopped. She slowly opened her bloodshot eyes with a tired look on her face.

When the guard in black saw the visitor dressed as a maid from a ghost clan, he shouted sternly: "How dare you! How dare you stop the young master's car?"

Taohong knelt down in front of the car, holding the letter high above her head, and said, neither humble nor arrogant: "My slave, Ling Fengyuan Taohong, dared to stop the young master's carriage. I am ordered by the girl to deliver this letter to you personally."

Hearing the words "Lingfeng Garden", Bai Ying's heart skipped a beat. She looked out of the car through the door curtain and saw the pink figure kneeling there. She was silent for a moment and ordered: "Come closer."

Taohong then stood up, walked to the window of the carriage, raised her hand to hand over the letter, and then she saw a slender and white hand sticking out of the window, with clear knuckles and round and clean nails, and then a white and white hand was revealed.

With a half-tired face, he quickly lowered his eyes, not daring to look again.

Bai Ying took the letter, opened it, and slowly took out the contents. When he saw a piece of blue talisman paper, he couldn't help but froze on the spot, with shock and worry in his eyes.

She stayed up all night and made a new talisman for him overnight, regardless of her own injuries?

Outside the window, Taohong's voice came again, her tone unhurried: "The girl also said that since this letter has been given to the young master, you can handle it yourself."

Each word was pronounced neither lightly nor harshly, but it made his heart feel sour, and his mouth was filled with bitterness but it was hard to express. He recalled the scene where she tore up the talisman with her own hands last night, and there were mixed feelings in his stomach.

Dispose of it yourself?

Bai Ying closed her eyes, exhausted mentally and physically. Could it be that he wanted to tear her apart with his own hands and trample her again after all his painstaking efforts?

Yueli...

When he opened his eyes again, he carefully stuffed the talisman back into his hands without haste or delay, and asked softly: "Did she send it to you?"

Taohong raised her eyes and looked towards the window, only to see a white figure fluttering in the gap between the curtains. She lowered her head again and said sincerely: "Yes, sir, is there anything you want me to take back to you, or is there anything you want to tell me?"

"Tell her that there is old wine buried under the tree in Tingfeng Garden. Unfortunately, I am in a hurry and can't take it with me on this trip. It will be a good day in two days. Ask her to dig it out for me. Let's set off!"

Taohong responded "Yes" and took two steps backwards: "I would like to send you off to the young master."

Immediately afterwards, the carriage's wheels began to move slowly, rolling up dust all over the ground and swaying toward the distance.

Return to the ghost gate.

Yue Li came to the empty Tingfeng Garden alone. The sycamore tree, which was three people thick, had luxuriant branches. She walked to the tree with familiarity, squatted there and hesitated for a moment, then reached out to pick up a branch and dug down.

More than ten feet deep, my men suddenly encountered an obstacle and struck their hand.

She hesitated for a moment, then started digging faster, and soon a clay wine jar with a palm-sized belly was revealed in the soil. She looked deeply at the wine jar, lost in memories.

Ten years ago, after she entered the ghost gate and lived in Tingfeng Garden, Bai Ying buried it with her own hands in front of her.

She remembered that there were six altars in total.

Yue Li stretched out her hand and took out a wine jar from the soil. She saw a piece of red paper attached to the jar, with the three characters "Nuer Hong" written on it.

In October of that year, Bai Ying was only ten years old. Like a little adult, he told her seriously: After entering the ghost gate, this is her home. Since he led her into the ghost gate, he naturally has to take on the responsibility.

The responsibility of the elder brother, later it was said that the eldest brother was the father, but he actually imitated ordinary people and prepared a daughter, Hong, for Yue Li to get married early.

The moisture in Yue Li's eyes gradually rose.

He is only ten years old, so he doesn’t know what it means to get married, and what does a daughter’s beauty mean? He is just stupidly asking all the disciples of the ghost sect, asking those who have daughters at home, or those with younger sisters, how their families raise girls, and what they need to do

What?

All these things were gathered together and written down on several pieces of paper in a eloquent manner, and she even bumped into her.

Now it seems that those rather ridiculous actions made her lonely and helpless heart a lot more stable at the time. He was sincere and treated her with sincerity and sincerity. He was considerate and considerate of everything, and he always thought about her.

Yue Li turned back and filled back the dug soil, leaving only the jar of wine that he had taken out.

Two days later.

The disciples of the Ghost Sect were summoned and gathered together in the main hall of the Ghost Sect.

The owner of the door, Bai Qing, sat in front of the hall, his eyes stopped at one place, and he opened his mouth and called out: "Yueli!"

Hearing the sound, all the disciples turned their heads and looked behind them.

Yue Li listened to the call, took a step forward, knelt on one knee behind everyone, neither humble nor arrogant: "My subordinates are here."

Bai Qing said: "How long have you been in the ghost gate?"

Yue Li: "Exactly ten years!"

Bai Qing said "Yeah" and nodded secretly: "That's right! It was also the golden October ten years ago, and Bai Ying personally led you into the ghost gate that day. In the past ten years, you have done an excellent job. In the future,

No need to stand there anymore, come forward." He waved with his palms upward.

Seeing this, Yue Li hesitated for a moment and responded: "Thank you, Master." After saying that, she stood up and walked to the front of the crowd.

Bai Qing had a half-smile on his face and waved again: "Move forward!"

As soon as he finished speaking, it was like a firecracker was thrown on the spot, and the hall suddenly became lively.

Going forward means standing in the lower position of the hall, where Bai Ying used to stand. He was a sectarian, but now that she is an unknown killer, standing in Bai Ying's position, some people are dissatisfied.

"Master! This is against the rules."

Yue Li lowered her eyes, and her thoughts came just in time.

Bai Qing was slightly displeased: "Rules? These are the rules in the Ghost Sect! Are you questioning me?"

Someone in the crowd shouted: "Liu'an! The sect master is here, how can I allow you to be so presumptuous!"

Yue Li frowned. She knew that what was said later must have been deliberately arranged by Bai Qing, waiting for someone to jump out and disrupt the situation. She had always been a loner in the ghost gate, and never interacted with others except Bai Ying.

It would have been impossible for someone to jump out to fight for her right now.

Everyone looked askance: Is this going to start a fight?

Yue Li lowered her eyes and remained silent.

Lu'an was dissatisfied, with resentment in his eyes: "May I ask the sect master, is there any disciple of the Ghost Sect over the years who has not tried his best?"

Bai Qing said again: "Not yet!"

"If that's the case, why is she the only one taking care of her but not killing her?!" As soon as he finished speaking, Lu'an raised his hand and pointed directly at Yue Li and said loudly.

Everyone looked at each other and whispered: Among us killers, who doesn't work day and night, in the wind and rain, doing the job of licking blood with the tip of a knife? Why is she so good at it? She only accepts insurance and not kills?

In the end, they all nodded in agreement.

Yue Li took a deep breath and exhaled it, sighing secretly: Time flies so fast.

"Good question! Yue Li has been in Lu'an for ten years, and has received thirty-eight commissions so far. No one has been injured or killed during this period. Can you compare with her?!" the man asked again.

In the main hall, everyone was stunned. They were awakened by these words. They turned to look at the figure standing alone, so thin that a gust of wind could blow away her back. They could not connect her with those words in their minds.

, is this her?

Thirty-eight tasks, no death is the responsibility, no injury, just rely on ability. After all, three days ago, there was a living example of a mission failure that exhausted the client!

Lu'an was anxious: "Even so, the sect master..."

Bai Qing raised his hand to stop the rest of his words and said: "That's enough!" He glanced at everyone with cold eyes. Although he didn't say anything, his eyes were sharp and he snorted coldly, "You think, killing people

It’s easy, or it’s easy to be a guarantor, huh?”.

Gradually, everyone's discussion stopped.

Yue Li raised her eyes and looked at Bai Qing again with a complicated look on her face: Is the sect leader deliberately provoking public anger for herself? As a killer, she has no right to choose tasks, so she never thought about this issue when she received the order from Yama.

.

When it comes to killing, if their skills are not as good as others, they will be killed but not killed. Therefore, they usually kill by surprise, do it quietly, and just complete the task.

Taking out insurance is different. It means risking one's life, but it may not protect the employer from danger.

What's more, in the past ten years, she has achieved the feat of not causing any casualties during the mission. In the entire ghost gate, even if you hold a lantern, you can't find another one.

Yue Li closed her eyes.

For ten years, she lived cautiously on thin ice, just living. Although she did not take the initiative to kill anyone, her hands were stained with blood to protect others, but she did not even have the right to refuse.

Lu'an said anxiously: "Master! Although Yue Li's last mission was completed well, she lost the edict of Yama from the Ghost Sect. According to the rules, you must bring back the token when you complete the mission, otherwise the mission will not be completed. Could it be that the master of the gate

Make an exception for her alone?"

Hearing the sound, Bai Qing looked sideways at Yue Li with a calm expression.

At the same time, Yue Li happened to raise her eyes to look at Bai Qing. When she saw that there was a bit of exploration and playfulness in his eyes, and a bit of sinisterness, she suddenly realized that this was his original intention: to kill someone with a borrowed knife!

After a while, everyone who had just calmed down began to whisper to each other again.

I don't know who it was, but the crowd shouted: "How to hold the gate!" At this sound, everyone followed the mountain call.

Yue Li turned around and looked at everyone one by one. When she saw the eyes of those people who were waiting to see the excitement, or the look on their faces that was adding insult to injury, or they were just following the crowd and being shouted at, she couldn't help but smile coldly: "

Are you worthy enough to make me submit to the law?"
