The cold wind is unstoppable, roaring in the sky like an ice knife, but it can't break the loneliness between heaven and earth. The heavy snow wraps everything in silver, but it can't stop the dark night after dusk.

The wide streets of Baojing City were covered with several layers of fallen snow.

It was almost midnight, and there should have been no more pedestrians, but there was a young man in green clothes holding an umbrella walking slowly on the road.

They all say that I feel shy when I'm close to my hometown, but I don't feel it - because this is not my real hometown... Xie Qingyun felt a little melancholy.

Suddenly, a strong smell of blood attracted his attention. He stood still in front of a wealthy family, his consciousness reached out, and his eyes could not help but narrow slightly.

This is a house with two entrances. Several policemen in yellow are moving the corpses one by one to the atrium. One of them is actually a child of five or six years old.

"Sir, no one was found alive."

A man dressed as a police officer came to the atrium and reported to a strong man wearing a black cloak and a black feather hat. He looked like he was a head catcher.

The head catcher had a stern look on his face and glanced around.

"Sir, the catcher is that beast Qi Jun. He defiled me. My father-in-law and mother-in-law were killed by him in order to save me. My husband was beaten to death by his men. My child, my child just cried because

If he spoke too loudly, he would be strangled to death by his men... Please make the decision for civilian women!"

At this time, a beautiful woman in disheveled clothes ran to the atrium with an infant baby in her arms. She knelt down in front of the arrester and cried bitterly. She was extremely beautiful and had a good figure. She was something a man would recognize at a glance.

A beauty born with a desire to protect.

Unexpectedly, instead of taking another look, the catcher's expression changed and he shouted: "Who are you?"

"The folk woman condenses the fragrance." The beautiful woman said with tears.

The arrester's expression changed for a while, and he suddenly said calmly: "The murderer of your whole family is the thief Sha Tongtian. He has been arrested and brought to justice. Do you understand that?"

Leng Ningxiang stopped crying, trembled all over, and looked around with a sad and helpless expression. The policeman who was caught by her moved his face away unnaturally. She suddenly screamed angrily, "I don't understand! The murderer

It’s Qi Jun, that beast, if you protect him, I will report it to the government office!”

The head catcher's expression gradually became cold: "Leng Ningxiang committed adultery with a thief, and after being exposed, he went crazy and killed the whole family. Let me catch him."

The policemen were about to rush forward when they suddenly heard someone outside the door say: "A murder case was solved with just a few words. This gentleman solved the case like a god. I really admire him."

But Xie Qingyun strode in, the front end of his umbrella slightly raised, revealing a cold and handsome face full of sarcasm.

"Who's here?" The catcher turned around and saw this young man. He was wearing only a thin green shirt despite the cold weather. He was slim and tall, with an indifferent expression. His tall nose revealed an extraordinary heroic aura, and his eyes

Ruo Chenxing looked distant. He could tell at a glance that this young man was a very proud person. When you describe a person as being very proud, it means that you think this person is difficult to deal with.

Xie Qingyun said in a mocking tone: "Xie Qingyun, a traveler, looks up to you for your grace."

The catcher pretended not to hear, and asked tentatively: "Are you a relative of this family?"

Xie Qingyun said: "No relatives, no reason."

The head catcher said: "Do you have any grudge against me?"

Xie Qingyun said: "No."

The head catcher said politely: "In that case, the weather is so cold, you might as well find an inn, get a room, order a bucket of hot water and a jug of good wine, and enjoy yourself."

Xie Qingyun said: "It sounds like a good idea."

"It was good." The head catcher smiled, "It's a pity that we are not as lucky as you, and we still have to investigate the case in such horrible weather."

The surrounding police officers also laughed, and the atmosphere became very relaxed.

Xie Qingyun said: "Isn't the case solved now?"

The head catcher laughed and said: "We are going to take the people away now. I hope you can have a good dream tonight."

Xie Qingyun said calmly: "You can't take her away. I'm attracted to her and I want her to accompany me tonight."

The smiles of all the catchers froze in an instant, and the catcher's face suddenly turned as green as iron. He gritted his teeth and said, "If you insist on being shameless, then don't blame us for being rude!"

"You might as well give it a try." Xie Qingyun said.

The head catcher waved his hand, and all the catchers quickly drew their swords and rushed towards the young man.

Xie Qingyun's umbrella sank, and six or seven knives were slashed on the umbrella, making a "clang" sound. The policemen were stunned, the umbrella suddenly rotated, and they saw snowflakes surging in all directions, "Pfft"

With a few pops of pops, the policemen screamed and fell away, vomiting blood and falling to the ground.

The catcher's pupils shrank, but thinking of the consequences of offending the Qi family, he shouted low and drew his sword and rushed forward. He concentrated his inner strength on the sword and flicked it from bottom to top.

The sword flashed rapidly, Xie Qingyun took a step back, and the umbrella opened wide.

Seeing an opportunity, the catcher suddenly changed his move, swung his knife horizontally, and slashed hard at the young man's neck from under the umbrella. Xie Qingyun suddenly twisted a yellow talisman and burned it, and a tree in the courtyard suddenly shot out rattan and entangled it.

The blade was cut into pieces with a "snap".

The broken blade plunged into the catcher's left shoulder with a "pop" sound. He turned pale with pain and stepped back. He was supported by his men before he could stand firm. How could he not know that the other party was a Qi practitioner? His courage was gone.

, without even daring to say more, he led the people and fled in a hurry.

Xie Qingyun ignored them and went straight to the atrium, looking down at the dead body of the five or six-year-old child, anger flashed in his eyes.

Leng Ningxiang knelt and moved over, tremblingly closed the child's eyes, then hugged her tightly, unable to control herself and burst into tears.

The cold current that could even freeze the soul quickly cooled the blood, turning from bright red to purple-black, dotted with the color of cold snow. Amid the grief-stricken cries, it created a sad scene that made people burst into tears.

Xie Qingyun was silent. He held the umbrella tightly, his hands turning pale from too much force.

Leng Ningxiang finally calmed down and knelt down to Xie Qingyun: "Thank you so much for saving me..." Her clothes were disheveled, and her chest collar was low and exposed a large amount of white.

Xie Qingyun just glanced at her and helped her up: "What are your plans next?"

Leng Ningxiang's eyes were filled with tears, and she was soft and timid. Just as she was about to speak, the swaddled baby suddenly burst into tears, and her tears fell like raindrops again, "Poor Han'er..."

The name sounds like it's a baby girl.

Xie Qingyun said: "Maybe I'm hungry."

Leng Ningxiangjiao's cheeks turned red and she whispered: "My dear friend, please come into the shabby room quickly. I'll feed my little girl and then I'll take care of her."

…

The night was already deep, and the snow outside was falling even harder.

This house is very elegant. The heat of the charcoal blocks the biting cold wave, making the whole room as warm as spring. Incense is burning in the corner, filling the house with fragrance, like entering a room of orchids.

Xie Qingyun sat cross-legged on the couch with his eyes closed and meditating.

This is the guest room prepared by Leng Ningxiang for him. It is clean and comfortable. There is a bucket of scalding hot water behind the screen with paintings of beauties. Now he should take off his clothes and soak in the bucket to relieve the fatigue of the journey.

But he didn't do this.

The secret umbrella was placed at his side, and his consciousness would be released to explore every once in a while. But what he waited for was Leng Ningxiang. Leng Ningxiang appeared in the latter half of the night, and when they were about to make an appointment, she came

There was a knock on the door of this room.

"Master Qingyun."

"Enter."

Xie Qingyun opened his eyes and watched Leng Ningxiang push the door open and come in. She had obviously taken a shower and was only wearing a light pink silk nightgown. There was an alluring smell all over her body.

This is a very charming woman, and she is also a very smart and thoughtful woman. The reason why she is so smart is because it is difficult for an ordinary woman to arrange the funerals of her husband, children, and parents-in-law in an orderly manner after encountering such a blow.

, and did not forget to take good care of Xie Qingyun, his savior.

"You shouldn't come at this time." Xie Qingyun frowned.

Leng Ningxiang was about to cry: "There has been a sudden change in the family. I really can't do anything at all. After I settled down, I finally found some time. I hope you will understand me."

Xie Qingyun was startled, then shook his head and said: "Do you think I really want you to accompany me? A smart woman like you will not fail to hear that it is an excuse."

Leng Ningxiang said: "You are a member of the Immortal Sect, and you don't know the suffering of slaves and other mortals. Since you said that, no matter whether it is an excuse or not, if I don't do anything, what will happen if I offend the young master?"

"I only have one question for you." Xie Qingyun said coldly.

"Sir, please tell me." Leng Ningxiang said.

Xie Qingyun said: "You said Qi Jun raped you and killed your whole family. Not only did you not report it to the official, but you also cleared up all the evidence of the crime. What's the point?"

Leng Ningxiang whispered: "The Qi family is the richest man in Baojing City, and they can only go in and out of the government office. How can we, the common people, fight... thinking that the little girl is young and cannot be deprived of support, so the blood of the head has been exhausted.

, it’s hard to mention it anymore...Finally, my family still has a little bit of money to support my mother and daughter."

Xie Qingyun was speechless and remained silent for a long time, then sighed and said: "Since that's what you think, I'll keep it for you until tomorrow, and you can take care of yourself from now on."

Leng Ningxiang said in surprise: "Young Master really doesn't need a slave to sleep with you?"

Are the Qi Practitioners superior to others and can they make such requests casually?

"I'm so big and can't sleep on my own? Go take care of your daughter."

Xie Qingyun drove Leng Ningxiang away and calmed down to sort out the whole thing. On the surface, it seemed like a dandy fell in love with Leng Ningxiang's beauty and broke into other people's homes to commit violence... The head catcher knew he couldn't afford to offend him.

The Qi family, so he casually found a way to deal with Leng Ningxiang, and afterwards he could go to the Qi family to ask for a reward. Unexpectedly, he happened to run into him.

He had seen this kind of thing frequently in his previous life, and it was not something to make a fuss about. But what puzzled him was that after the head catcher left, he stopped coming, and there was no movement from the rich man's family either.

Just forget it if you can't figure it out... Xie Qingyun glanced at the still steaming hot water, and finally couldn't help walking over, taking off his clothes and soaking in it.

"The bathtub is definitely one of mankind's greatest inventions."

He adjusted to a comfortable posture and squinted his eyes comfortably.

"ah--"

At this moment, a short scream came from outside, and then stopped abruptly.
