第322章 借(一更)
天色暗沉,对面的人长身玉立,斗笠微倾,只看得那双清冽深邃的凤眸。

叶初棠挑了挑眉。

“好巧。”

本以为离开矿场之后,就不会再见,没想到这才隔了一夜,便又碰上。

她抬了抬下巴:“一起?”

沈延川却摇了摇头:“危险,勿去。”

叶初棠一怔。

他这是……专门为了拦她?
沈延川言简意赅:“南湾巷有人与他们接应,功夫不弱。”

叶初棠立刻明白过来——那些人是在故意钓人上钩!

估计是之前的排查并不顺利,便又用了这种法子,双管齐下。

她眸子微微眯起:“……所以,果然是他?”

沈延川微不可查地点了点头。

虽然他们谁都没有明说那个“他”是谁,但双方都明白指代的是谁。

叶初棠缓缓攥紧手掌,语调听不出情绪:
“但他们身上有我想要的东西。”

她要看看,那木牌之上镌刻的图案,是否与当年出事的时候,她所见到的一样!
今时今日,这件事她非查清不可!

说罢,她抬腿便要继续往前。

沈延川脚步微动,拦在她身前。

叶初棠抬眸,下一秒,却听他道:“危险,我去便是。”

叶初棠愣了一下,剩下的话便堵在了嗓子眼。

“其实——”

“接下来的盘查只会越来越严,该是今早离开才好。”沈延川打断她的话,“城东二十里,等我。”

留下这句话,没等叶初棠反应,沈延川便已转身,身影迅速消失在雨幕之中。

“……”

叶初棠袖中的手指轻轻动了动。

其实……她本来想说,就算对方人多势众,她也有法子拿到东西全身而退的。

她眨了眨眼,将手里的东西收起,唇角极轻地弯了一下。

“好。”

……

雨似乎越下越大,沈延川在雨幕中无声穿行。

转过拐角,前面那几人进入了一条羊肠小道。

沈延川微微抬眸扫了一眼,旋即不动声色地跟随上去。

来到巷道中间的时候,他忽然停下脚步。

前面忽然出现三个黑衣人,将去路拦截,此时正虎视眈眈地盯着他,满身凶戾气息几乎难以遮掩。

“阁下好大的胆子!”中间那人嘲讽出声,“昨夜偷往矿场,让你侥幸逃脱,今日居然还敢露面,真是上赶着送死!”

沈延川站定,微微侧首。

身后也瞬间多出数道身影,人人持刀,杀意凛然!
前后夹击,被困在这狭窄巷道,想要脱困,实在艰难!
沈延川却似乎没怎么在意,目光从那些人身上淡淡扫过,最终又落到了前方正中间那人身上。

——他的腰间,正挂着那块木牌。

“误会。”沈延川开口,嗓音却是与他平日全然不同的微微沙哑低沉,“我这次来,没有冒犯之意,不过是想借一样东西。”

中间那男人拧起眉头:“借东西?你要借什么!?”

他看这人脸容并不认识,从前在这石滦城中也从未见过,但看对方步伐轻盈,显然身手不错,加上对方竟能从矿场全须全尾地离开,他更不敢轻敌。

最要紧的是——还得问出对方底细,才能给上面一个交代!
思量间,便看对面之人微微一笑。

“无他,借你一条命。”

侯爷的掌心娇是朵黑心莲
Author:

Heir of a traditional medical family, Ye Chutang rolled through life for a lifetime, only to unexpectedly die just as she was about to inherit. Reborn, she only wanted to be a slacker and live a carefree life. Unexpectedly, at the beginning, she suffered a critical blow: her parents and eldest brother were assassinated, leaving her with three younger siblings. The third brother was seriously injured, the fourth brother was in a coma, and there was also a baby crying for milk. She weighed the cold steamed bun in her hand, looked despairingly at the sky, and thought that managing three at once was worse than starting over. The little baby tugged at her pant leg. "Hungry." Ye Chutang: "..." Get up and work! ...Ye Chutang’s plan was perfect; once she raised the children, she could retire and enjoy her later years. Yet, a man had different intentions. "Miss Ye, after all these years, shouldn't there be an explanation?" Ye Chutang: "6." You used to linger at my doorstep and now it’s my fault? ... The Ye family was impressive: Ye Sanlang was the top scholar of the current dynasty, Ye Si-lang had made great military achievements in the northwest, and Ye Wu girl had a commercial empire rivaling the rich and powerful. Only Ye Er-girl was busy raising her younger siblings, unknowingly aging and facing difficulties in marriage. Until one day, the powerful Duke of Dingbei, Shen Yanchaun, arrived with a bridal procession ten miles long to welcome her. Ye Chutang remained silent for a long time. "This time, you take care of the kids."
