Chapter 71 [Flying Birds Collection] (1)

Although Arnold was greedy for alcohol, he still insisted until Yan Tianxin drank the glass of wine before he was ready to drink it. Yan Tianxin noticed that neither of them had drunk it and couldn't help but smile: "Are you worried that the wine is poisonous?"

Luo Lie smiled and said, "How could I doubt Master Yan?"

But Arnold said, "Be careful to sail the ten thousand years of ship." He leaned closer to Yan Tianxin and lowered his voice, "It's not the first time you've been betrayed by your subordinates..."

Luo Lie sighed inwardly, this guy really didn't open any pot. Yan Tianxin was in a depressed mood these two days, obviously because of the betrayal of his subordinates. Arnold, the winsless guy, sprinkled salt on the wound again.

Sure enough, when Yan Tianxin heard him say this, his pretty face suddenly turned cold and said indifferently: "No outsiders need to ask about my affairs!"

Arnold smiled and said, "I'm talking too much." At this time, Luo Lie had taken the lead in drinking all the wine in front of him.

Yan Tianxin stared at Luo Lie's eyes and said, "I'm afraid, you still dare to drink?"

Luo Lie said: "I have agreed to live and die together, how can I be so unfaithful?" In fact, although he and Yan Tianxin have not known each other for a long time, they have already seen that Yan Tianxin is cautious. If she sees anything suspicious, she should not drink this glass of wine so happily.

Once Arnold drinks, he will have a tendency to be unable to stop. If Luo Lie had not advised him, he would have to get drunk. Although Luo Lie was relaxed on the surface, he did not dare to let go of his vigilance in his heart. Although he was at the foot of Tianmai Mountain, no one knew what was going on on the mountain. When the Yuman Tower of Lingtian Castle betrayed Yan Tianxin, he almost killed Yan Tianxin. The assassination did not happen suddenly. It was obvious that before Yan Tianxin went to Lingtian Castle to celebrate his birthday, the other party had already carefully planned it.

Arnold said nothing wrong. It was not the first time Yan Tianxin was betrayed by his subordinates, nor the last time.

After dinner, Lao Tong packed the table and Arnold went to the kang to rest early. Luo Lie and Yan Tianxin sat on the table to drink tea. The tea was still Pu'er that Yan Tianxin had left here before. The tea leaves were good, but the tea sets were not so particular. Two small coarse porcelain bowls were temporarily used as tea cups.

Yan Tianxin looked at the oil lamp on the table and thoughtfully, took a sip of tea and said softly: "The life of Lao Tong's family is saved by my father! My father said that even if anyone betrayed him, Lao Tong's family would not be sorry for us."

Luo Lie played with the thick porcelain bowl in his palm. Unlike Yan Tianxin, he didn't know anyone in Yunzhai and did not devote any feelings to him, so he could look at the problem fairly. This perspective was clearer. Luo Lie said: "I just think that his wife is sick a little bit abnormal."

Yan Tianxin frowned. Luo Lie was obviously suspicious of Lao Tong. What else she wanted to say, but suddenly the sound of dog barking came from outside.

Luo Lie suddenly became alert and blew out the oil lamp in one mouthful. The room with the lights on is the most likely target of the enemy's attack, and he made such a reaction that was extremely correct.

Lao Tong's surprise voice came from outside: "Shuanzi, why are you back?"

Luo Lie rushed to the front door at the first time and looked out through the crack of the door. He saw a man walking towards the yard with a sled. He was as strong and honest as Lao Tong. The person who came was Lao Tong's son Shuanzi. He said aloud: "Dad, my mother asked me to come back to help you, saying that the shopkeeper will be back in the next two days, and there is no one to take care of him here."

"How is your mother?"

"It's okay. Mr. Zhuo prescribed two doses of medicine last night. After drinking it, the fever subsided this morning. He was in high spirits. My mother wanted to go down the mountain with me, but I insisted on letting her stay. Dad, I saw the footprints in front of the door. Has the shopkeeper already arrived?"

Lao Tong then remembered something: "You can make a little quieter sound, you can scream everywhere, the shopkeeper..." He turned around and looked into the room, and just saw that the lights in the room had gone out.

However, the room lighted up again at this time, but Yan Tianxin drew a match to reignite the oil lamp. The eyes of Luo Lie under the light were obviously dissatisfied, and he obviously thought Luo Lie had misunderstood the Tong family.

Luo Lie smiled embarrassedly.

Yan Tianxin came to the door and greeted outside the door: "Sunzi, come in!"

The old Tong and his son put the sled and sent the dog into the kennel. Then the father and the father entered the main hall. Shuanzi saw Yan Tianxin and knelt down with a thud: "Sunzi kowtowed to the shopkeeper!"

Yan Tianxin couldn't help laughing: "I'll see you when you see me, you don't have to give such a big tribute."

Shuanzi said, "The shopkeeper is my life-savior, no matter how great the gift is, it is not too much." It turned out that it was not only Yan Tianxin's father who saved the life of Lao Tong's family, but Yan Tianxin also saved Shuanzi's life. No wonder she has such great confidence in Lao Tong's family.

Yan Tianxin asked about the matter on the mountain, and Shuanzi answered one by one.

As an outsider, Luo Lie was not suitable for listening. He was tired and got up and went to the big house to rest. When he came to the big house, Arnold was already snoring loudly. Luo Lie sat down by the window. The north wind was howling outside, and the snow fell even harder than when they came. The blind man and his party should have already left the Pale Mountain. The sparrows were the most worried about. If Luo Xingmu's purpose was the Nine Netherworld Secret Realm, then they should also come to Tianmai Mountain. They would also encounter this storm and snow. They had almost no rest on the way, and perhaps they had already left Luo Xingmu and the others behind? Luo Xingmu set up a plan to catch the sparrows to help solve Xia Wen. The misfortune and fortune depend on each other. It is precisely for this reason that there will be no problems with the safety of the sparrows for the time being. At least until Luo Xingmu has achieved his goal, he will not start to hurt the sparrows.

Luo Lie always hides the fact that he is familiar with Xia Wen. The reason why he insists on not revealing any news is also for the safety of the sparrow. If Luo Xingmu knew that there was another person in this world who was familiar with Xia Wen, then he would not be as concerned as he is now, and the safety of the sparrow would not be guaranteed.

After the old Tong and his son left, Luo Lie walked out of the house again. Seeing Yan Tianxin still had not returned to the room, she sat under the lamp and looked at a book intently. When she heard the movement, she raised her head and whispered: "Yeon Owl, why haven't you gone to sleep yet?" She noticed that Luo Lie limped while walking.

Luo Lie sat down opposite her: "I can't sleep."

Yan Tianxin sighed and said, "You have hardly seen each other these days. People are not machines and can't hold on. Go to bed quickly."

Luo Liedao: "I wonder if Luo Xingmu is here?"

Yan Tianxin couldn't help laughing. From Luo Lie's words, she noticed his thoughts at the moment: "Don't worry, as long as he comes to Tianmai Mountain, he will definitely be able to find his trace." Tianmai Mountain is her territory, and the conversation with Shuanzi just now made Yan Tianxin feel much more relieved. There is no abnormality in the village at present. After this blizzard, she will go up the mountain as soon as possible.

Yan Tianxin poured a bowl of tea for Luo Lie. After Luo Lie thanked him, he took it with both hands.

Along the way, Luo Lie told Yan Tianxin about Luo Xingmu's adventure with Ma Boxuan, and also told her about her experience of being employed by Mafeng to come to Paobai Mountain. However, Yan Tianxin rarely mentioned the incident of Lianyun Village. Luo Lie knew very little about her, only to the descendants of the Jurchen tribe who survived Lingtian Castle back then.

Luo Lie picked up the book Yan Tianxin placed on the table and read it. What Yan Tianxin was reading was an original English version. Yan Tianxin reached out and hid, his expression full of anger.

Luo Lie really didn't expect that this female bandit who occupied the mountain and became king had such a literary side. Tagore had just won the Nobel Prize in Literature and was a sensible figure in the international literary world. Reading Tagore's poetry collection has become a temporary trend, but in China it is still limited to a metropolis like Huangpu and Peking. What surprised Luo Lie even more was that she read it in the original English version, which means that Yan Tianxin should know English. She didn't know where she got this book, and she should cherish it very much and preserve it very well.
