Li Qiushui bent down to pick up the bowls and chopsticks knocked over by Li Changtian, stretched out his hand to press Li Changtian's shoulder, telling him not to panic, then looked at 'Li Changtian' who just entered the door, and asked softly.
"Ah Wu, can we have lunch now? Would you like to come and have some?"
"Go back to Princess, I've used it." Ah Wu clasped his fists and lowered his head, and replied in a calm tone, not caring about Li Changtian's astonishment at all.
"Then you wait for me outside the house first, I will come out in a while." Li Qiushui said.
"Of order." Ah Wu raised his head, glanced at Li Changtian, then turned and left.
Li Qiushui stood up, took out a pair of clean bowls and chopsticks from the wooden food box on the table, and placed them in front of Li Changtian.
Before Li Changtian recovered from the shock, he stared at Li Qiushui in a daze.
Li Qiushui laughed, and lightly squeezed Li Changtian's face: "That's my bodyguard."
"Guard?" Li Changtian repeated.
"Well, he is very good at disguise." Li Qiushui simply said with horror.
"Yi, Yi Rong..." Li Changtian muttered to himself.
"My sister has something to do, I need to go out, eat well by yourself, eat enough, and when my sister comes back, I will answer your question of why I am in Baidi City." Li Qiushui said, got up and walked out of the wing.
Outside the house, Ah Wuzheng stood at the door and waited quietly.
Li Qiushui closed the door, walked towards Ah Wu, looked straight into his eyes, and said, "A Wu, I know you often change your appearance to make it easier to find him. Now that he has returned, you don't need to change your appearance again in the future. What he looks like."
Ah Wu looked at Li Qiushui, remained silent for a while, and then asked, "Who does the Princess want me to disguise myself as?"
Li Qiushui replied: "You don't need to ask me, you can choose whoever's appearance you think is suitable."
Ah Wu bowed his head: "Yes."
Li Qiushui suddenly felt emotional.
For no reason, she recalled the first time she met Ah Wu.
Two years ago, Han Ya secretly went to Beidi to negotiate with the leader of Beidi the scheme he had carefully planned for many years. At that time, Li Qiushui had been married to Beidi for nine years, so he had some weight to speak.
Under the persuasion and encouragement of her and Han Ya, the leader of Beidi quickly agreed to Han Ya's next series of plans.
Han Ya then left Beidi and left behind a team of guards for Li Qiushui.
Among them, the head of the guards is Ah Wu.
At the beginning of getting along, Li Qiushui felt that this person was really strange.
He disguises himself as a different person every day, and no one has ever seen his original appearance.
Li Qiushui asked him his name, and he replied that he didn't have a name, and whoever he changed into was his name.
It was only later that Li Qiushui found out that this person was originally an orphan living in the streets. He was picked up by Han Ya when he was six years old, trained as a killer, and even practiced a very evil disguise technique.
The reason why I say evil is because people who learn this kind of disguise technique not only have to learn bone shrinkage skills to change their body shape when they are young, but also have to soak a kind of potion every day, so that their skin is soft and fleshy, and their faces are completely unrecognizable. See people as they are.
In other words, this guard, after the age of six, can only live as someone else.
He is a person who both exists and does not exist.
After getting along for a while, Li Qiushui once asked Ah Wu.
"Why are you never easy to be yourself?"
Ah Wu smiled and answered her.
"Princess, I can't remember what I look like."
Hearing this, Li Qiushui sighed and murmured that he is also a person who suffers from fate, then reached out and gently stroked Ah Wu's head: "Forget it, that's all... But you don't have a name, and getting along is always inconvenient. Since you I keep saying that I have no name and no surname, so can I call you Ah Wu from now on?"
When Ah Wu heard this sentence for the first time, he thought it was very ridiculous.
What was the use of giving him a name? On the second day, he changed his face again, who could recognize him, and who could call out his name
But after all, the person in front of him is the Princess, Ah Wu nodded and replied, "Thank you Princess for giving me the name."
But what Ah Wu didn't expect was that.
In the future, no matter who he disguises as, Li Qiushui will always recognize him accurately.
Ah Wu learned the disguise technique at the age of six, and has already mastered it. He is confident that he can deceive everyone's eyes.
But only Li Qiushui, no matter who he disguised as, she would always ask him with a smile after seeing him, "Are you Ah Wu?"
Ah Wu was puzzled, and asked how Li Qiushui recognized him.
Li Qiushui smiled.
she says.
"possible… "
"Maybe it's because I have never regarded Ah Wu as someone else in the past year."
-
-
Li Qiushui and Ah Wu left for some reason, leaving Li Changtian sitting alone in the room.
Holding the bowl and chopsticks, Li Changtian looked at the table full of delicacies, but couldn't eat any of them.
Shit, shit! ! ! Here is someone who looks exactly like me! !
And he is also Li Qiushui's bodyguard! !
The scene when Yan Shu and Li Changtian mentioned this incident, Li Changtian still vividly remembers it.
The two were lying face to face on the narrow bed in the hospital. Yan Shu's face was bloodless due to a serious shoulder injury and he lost a lot of blood, and his thin lips were as white as paper. pity.
With a dignified expression, he said to Li Changtian, "Among Jackdaw's killers, there is one who looks exactly like you."
At that time, Li Changtian's first reaction was: "Fuck! Do I have a twin brother?"
Yan Shu shook his head: "Even if they are twin brothers, it is impossible for them to look exactly the same, there must be some differences."
"Are you sure they are exactly the same?" Li Changtian asked in confusion, "If they are twins, people who are not familiar with them can't tell the difference, right?"
Yan Shu raised his eyes and glanced at Li Changtian: "You and I have known each other for more than half a year."
"Ah..." Li Changtian scratched his head, "I mean you are not familiar with the person who looks like me."
"But I recognize you." Yan Shu said.
"Then this is really a bit mysterious." Li Changtian felt goosebumps all over his body and rubbed his arms with emotion.
At that time Li Changtian didn't think much about it.
Later, every time Li Changtian thought of this matter again, he couldn't help feeling emotional.
Yan Shu believed in herself too much!
Ordinary people encounter this kind of person who looks exactly like him, they must first suspect whether he is playing tricks, right? !
Even if he really wasn't playing tricks, he must have something to do with that person!
Did Yan Shu just tell him so plainly and without reservation? !
hiss.
For a moment, Li Changtian couldn't help wondering whether Yan Shu was playing tricks on him, whether he had a plan, and said it just to see how he would react when he heard the news.
But Li Changtian knew.
Yan Shu is not.
Yan Shu just believed in herself.
Full of enthusiasm, sincerely believe in yourself.
Just like how he asked Yan Shu that day.
"Do you suspect that I am a Jackdaw?"
Yan Shu said.
"Li Changtian, I've never been so skeptical. If I say I believe you, I believe you."
But now...
Li Changtian couldn't help hugging his head and howling.
ah! ! ! So he really has something to do with Jackdaw! ! !
Combined with the clues he and Yan Shu have been pursuing for more than half a year, Li Changtian suddenly understood many things.
Yan Shu told him before that eleven years ago, in order to protect the peace of the frontier, the first emperor ordered a princess to go to Beidi to get married.
This princess is Han Ya's daughter.
Just now Li Qiushui kept mentioning the matter of marrying far away, but what she said was ambiguous, she didn't mention how far it was, nor where she married.
But the guard called her princess as soon as he entered the house!
In other words, Li Qiushui was the one who went to Beidi to get married back then!
But Li Qiushui also said that she was a maid in a mansion.
This certain mansion must be Han Ya's prince's mansion.
Back then, it was very likely that the princess was unwilling to marry a barbaric alien, so the servant girl Li Qiushui married the princess instead!
And the self who depended on Li Qiushui for life must also have something to do with Han Ya.
"ah!!!"
Li Changtian broke down and rubbed his hair with his head in his hands.
Fortunately, Yan Shu has already returned to the capital. After all, if Yan Shu knew that he really belonged to the Jackdaw, he would definitely want to slap him on the head!
Li Changtian thought for a while, and suddenly realized that it was not bad to have a blooming head, at least it could make Yan Shu vent his anger.
What if Yan Shu doesn't even want to beat and scold him, but treats him coldly with disdain...
hiss.
Just thinking about it makes Li Changtian feel extremely uncomfortable.
"Hey..." Li Changtian couldn't help but sighed again, feeling, "What a crime!!"
After sighing, adhering to the life philosophy of "the sky is big and the earth is big, eating is the biggest, and if you don't eat if you have food, you are a fool", Li Changtian picked up the bowl and chopsticks, and hurriedly took a few mouthfuls of rice to fill his stomach.
After a while, a servant came to clean up the dishes.
Li Changtian hurriedly asked the servants: "Excuse me, where is this place?"
The servant looked at Li Changtian in confusion, then pointed to his ear and then to his throat, then shook his hand.
It turned out that this was a deaf-mute person.
The servant left the wing room after packing up the leftovers. Li Changtian sat quietly for a while, then stood up and walked out the door.
He gently pushed the door open a crack, and saw that there was no guard outside, so he walked out of the room cautiously.
The house was located in an attic. Li Changtian found the stairs, went all the way down, turned left and right, and then walked out of the attic by mistake.
As soon as he walked out of the attic, Li Changtian was stunned.
The attic is built on the cliff, leaning on the railing, you can see the prosperous and luxurious Tianque Villa on the opposite mountainside.
Between the two mountains, there is only a wooden stack iron cable bridge connecting them.
There are dozens of guards in front of the overpass here, and they are not from the Central Plains in appearance and attire, they should be from Beidi.
Li Changtian bent his waist and walked a few steps along the stone steps in front of the attic, and came to another attic.
Compared with the attic just now, this attic looks more primitive and more gloomy.
Li Changtian hesitated for a moment, always felt that it was too careless for him to wander around so recklessly, so he turned his head and wanted to go back.
At this moment, a creepy and shrill sound suddenly came from the attic, as if some kind of animal was screaming.
Li Changtian was startled, he frowned first, then ran to the attic without hesitation.
-
The attic was not big, but the windows inside were tightly closed, so the wind and light could not penetrate, and it was pitch black, and the road under our feet could barely be seen clearly.
There are no decorations on the first floor of the attic, and it is empty, as if the place has been abandoned.
Li Changtian found the stairs, held his breath and walked gently to the second floor of the attic.
There is a circular corridor on the second floor. There are many rooms on the right side of the corridor. The rooms are connected to each other. Each room is completely dark, and it does not look like there are people.
When Li Changtian was at a loss what to do, there was another neighing sound.
Li Changtian immediately followed the voice and came to a side room.
To Li Changtian's surprise, the door of that wing room was ajar and unlocked, and it could be opened with a simple push.
And through the slightly opened gap of the door, one can smell a strange stench coming from inside...
