167 The man was gone

Here, after Shen Muzhi took the Zhengyang Sword Technique, he went back to the cabin by the mountain stream.

Although the cabin is a little dilapidated, it is also complete with beds and tables and other things, and Shen Muzhi has already cleaned it up a little before, so at this time, he just needs to take out some of the things he brought from Xiaomei Garden and put them in place a little.

This is also officially the move-in.

It's just that when he packed up his things, stood beside the mountain stream, and looked at Bai Lian who was rumbling down, Shen Mu's heart was slightly dazed.

This kind of confusion was also experienced when he followed He Xian to the Great Sword Gate on the first day. But at that time, because He Xian was beside him, he was quickly suppressed.

But at this moment, after this blankness appeared, it was like taking root, and suddenly it settled in his heart and lingered.

At that time, when he decided to follow He Xian to the Great Sword Gate, he was thinking that he wanted to find a stable place where he could practice well and break through the realm as soon as possible, and then one day, he would be able to avenge Liu Guan and avenge Qingguo and himself.

But after getting here, it seemed like all of a sudden, things started to change uncontrollably.

First, Zhengyang Peak mainly accepted him as an apprentice.

This is a good thing, at least that's what Brother He Xian told him at that time.

However, the first time he saw the master, he proposed to let him marry Miss Lin. Although he refused at the time, it can be seen from the fact that the master arranged for him to live with Miss Lin in the Little Plum Garden, and the master still did not give up after all.

He can move out without his master now, but how long can he hide this matter?

He couldn't understand why Master would insist on him being with Miss Lin so much?

If it is said that the master really takes a fancy to himself in the matter of accepting apprentices, is it really just because he wants him to marry Miss Lin?

Or is there another purpose?

After experiencing the matter of the eldest brother, he has long lost the innocence of a young man. But judging from the relationship during this time, whether it is the two senior brothers or the master, they are quite protective of him.

Moreover, Brother He Xian also knew that the master asked him to marry Miss Lin, and he didn't say anything to him.

So, these days, he has been deliberately not thinking about this issue.

However, sometimes, just because you don't think about it doesn't mean that these things don't exist.

It's always there, you can't hide from it, and you still have to face it in the end.

So, what is Master for?

Shen Muzhi frowned, but he didn't have the slightest clue.

And now, Mingxi followed Jinghe to the Great Sword Gate, as a swordsman. To put it bluntly, she actually acts as a maid to take care of Jinghe's daily life.

And the maid, life and death are in the hands of the master.

No matter what the eldest lady has done, no matter whether he is familiar with this sister or not, she is also the eldest brother's sister and father's daughter after all. How could he turn a blind eye?

But he also can't interfere with anything, because the Shen family is still in Jinling, because even if he has Brother He Xian and Master and them as backers now, he is still not strong enough to ignore these threats.

I thought that leaving Jinling and escaping into this secluded mountain gate would be a pure practice, but I never thought that where there are people, intrigue is always indispensable.

Shen Muzhi stood beside the mountain stream for a long time before he reluctantly pulled his thoughts back from these sad things.

The clothes on his body have been stained with a lot of moisture and have become damp.

Shen Muzhi went back to the house to change his clothes, and found a long wooden stick in the nearby forest, put the changed clothes in the woods to dry, and then went back to the house and began to flip through the Zhengyang swordsmanship given by the master.

In the Shen Mansion before, although he mainly practiced boxing, he was also slightly involved in swordsmanship. I thought that it shouldn't be too difficult to deal with this Zhengyang Sword Technique, but after opening it, I was dumbfounded.

This swordsmanship is not the other swordsmanship!

Shen Muzhi looked at the words on the page that described the operation of the aura and the change of the sword momentum, and his brows were twisted into Sichuan characters.

Although he has heard a lot of knowledge about cultivation from Zhao Zhengguang these days, he is still a rookie who has just started for less than a month after all!

Shen Muzhi stared at the book and frowned for a while, he was really a little clueless, so he put it aside with some discouragement, raised his hand and rubbed his somewhat sour eyes.

After pondering in his heart whether to take this sword technique now and ask his master to study it himself or go back, Shen Muzhi decided to choose the latter.

At the Little Spirit Sword Pavilion just now, the two questions that the master asked made him still have some 'palpitations' when he thought about it now.

Moving out, he has a weak heart.

At this time, it is better for him to try not to go to the master as little as possible, so as not to be seen by him, and it is estimated that he will have to move back again as soon as he moves out.

When I look back for a long time, I will take the initiative to confess this matter to the master, maybe the master will be able to accept it, and I will let him live outside when the time comes.

Shen Muzhi thought about it, so he continued to study this sword technique.

Time flies.

Shen Muzhi has been living next to this mountain stream, at first when the night was quiet only the rumbling sound of the waterfall next to his ears, Shen Muzhi was still a little unaccustomed, and always felt that it was too noisy. But after staying for two days in a row, he got used to it, and even walked to other quiet places, and he couldn't hear the rumbling water anymore, and he was still a little unaccustomed to it.

It can be seen that habit is actually a very scary thing.

It can make a thing that you were bored with gradually become not bored, and then accept it, and in the end, you may also give birth to dependence and like......

In addition, he discovered one of the wonderful things about this place, which is the waterfall.

Under the waterfall, the water flow is relatively turbulent, standing in the water to practice boxing, not only can exercise the muscles of the whole body, but also can be more calm.

Shen Muzhi already likes to practice boxing and meditation, but now he prefers to stand in this turbulent water to practice boxing and meditation.

Every morning when the morning light is faint, get up to practice boxing, after practicing boxing, wash up with this landscape, change clothes and go to Xiaoling Sword Pavilion to report, and ask for 'some' swordsmanship I don't understand.

The days seem to be very regular and peaceful.

Zhao Zhengguang also did not ask questions like where he went in the morning.

Shen Muzhi, who had always been a little apprehensive in his heart, completely let go of his thoughts.

However, he had only put down his mind for less than two days.

This matter was suddenly exposed.

The reason was that Zhou Yu went to Xiaomei Garden to find him.

Although he had a token on him and sensed it, he didn't care. It was noon at that time, even if the people who went to Xiaomei Garden were looking for him, it was normal that he was not there.

But he ignored a problem.

There is also Miss Lin in the Little Plum Garden.

He hadn't been back to this since he left Xiaomei Garden that day, and Miss Lin had already found out.

Therefore, after Zhou Yu saw Miss Lin, he asked: "Mu Zhi can be in the garden." ”

Miss Lin replied, "No." ”

"Then do you know where he went?" Zhou Yu seemed to be in a hurry.

Miss Lin shook her head.

"Then I'll wait for him in his room. With that, he prepared to walk away.

Unexpectedly, before his feet moved, he heard Miss Lin say, "He may no longer live here." ”

Zhou Yu was stunned for a moment, and asked Miss Lin: "I don't know what Miss Lin means when he doesn't live here?"

"You haven't been here in days. Miss Lin told truthfully with an expressionless face.

Zhou Yu frowned and muttered, "Could it be that he went to live in the Peach Blossom Forest?"

However, he quickly remembered that he had gone to the Little Spirit Sword Pavilion yesterday morning and had met Shen Muzhi. If he went to live in the Peach Blossom Forest, how would he go back and forth every day?

Is Senior Brother He in charge of the daily pick-up, or is he walking the mountain road by himself?

He heard that Senior Brother He has been very busy recently, and this daily pick-up should be impossible. So, did he walk the mountain road on his own?

From Qingliang Peak to Zhengyang Peak, if you take the mountain road, even if Shen Muzhi is a martial artist who is not weak in kung fu, no matter how fast his legs and feet are, it is estimated that he will have to walk for half an hour.

This Shen Muzhi spends an hour walking the mountain road back and forth every day, just to live in the peach blossom forest?

Zhou Yu always felt that this was a bit strange.

At this time, Miss Lin seemed to have no patience to stand here stupidly with him, and said, "If Senior Brother Zhou is fine, Changying will go back first." ”

Zhou Yu hurriedly handed it over.

Watching her turn around and walk away, Zhou Yu's mind suddenly lit up!

This kid didn't want to hide from this Lin girl, so he deliberately hid in the Peach Blossom Forest, right?

The more Zhou Yu thought about it, the more likely it became, and he couldn't help but show a smile on the corner of his mouth. Gradually, the smile expanded, and finally laughed out loud.

Unexpectedly, this kid is quite cowardly! After Zhou Yu said secretly, he turned around and left Xiaomei Garden and went directly to Xiaoling Sword Pavilion.

Before he entered the door, he laughed and shouted, "Master, there is an interesting story, do you want to hear it?"

Zhao Zhengguang was reading a book, heard the voice, frowned, and said unhappily: "If you want to say it, say it quickly, and if you don't say it, get out!"

Zhou Yu was stunned for a moment, but thinking that Shen Muzhi walked the mountain road back and forth to the Peach Blossom Forest every day in order to hide from the forest girl, a smile suddenly climbed to the corner of his mouth again.

"Master, do you know what the junior brother has done recently?" Zhou Yu blinked his eyes and pretended to look at Zhao Zhengguang mysteriously.

Zhao Zhengguang gave him a faceless look, and snorted: "You like gossip kung fu, if you put it on cultivation, you won't be left behind so much by He Xian's kid!"

Zhou Yu was hit again, and the little pleasure in his heart that he wanted to have fun with his master was suddenly scattered all over the ground. Standing there, he lowered his head and remained silent, motionless and waiting for the master to continue his training.

But Zhao Zhengguang saw that he suddenly stopped talking again, and suddenly became angry, and snorted again: "Don't say anything halfway, what's the matter?

After Zhou Yu was stunned for a moment, the joy scattered all over his heart suddenly gathered quickly, and the smile climbed back to the corner of his mouth, and said, "Master, do you guess where the junior brother lives these days?"

Zhao Zhengguang listened to Zhou Yu's deliberate sale, and his face became even more displeased.

Zhou Yu should have noticed it, and after his smile stiffened, he hurriedly said, "I just went to Xiaomei Garden, and I didn't see the little junior brother." Listening to Miss Lin, the little junior brother has not been back to Xiaomei Garden for several days. I guess he has been living in the Peach Blossom Forest for the past few days. Most of this little junior brother fled to the Peach Blossom Forest because Miss Lin lived in the Little Plum Garden. Senior Brother He has been very busy recently, and most of the time he doesn't have time to pick him up every day, and the little brother is estimated to walk back and forth on mountain roads every day. This mountain road goes back and forth, according to the tutorial of the little junior brother, I estimate that it will take at least an hour......" As he spoke, the corners of Zhou Yu's mouth curled up again. But Zhao Zhengguang's face became darker and darker.

Without waiting for Zhou Yu to finish speaking, he suddenly threw the book in his hand on the table and snorted, "Go and find me this bastard!"

Zhou Yu was stunned for a moment, and when he saw Zhao Zhengguang's black charcoal-like face, he was shocked, and suddenly knew that he was causing trouble for his junior brother, so he hurriedly opened his mouth to remedy it, but it was too late.

As soon as he raised his eyes, Zhao Zhengguang came over with a stern look, and Zhou Yu was suddenly silent, and he retreated in a panic and went to find Shen Muzhi.

However, Shen Muzhi was not in the Peach Blossom Forest.

Zhou Yu went to Qingliang Peak, and after pounced, he asked around, and after learning that Shen Muzhi had not been to Qingliang Peak at all in the past few days, he was dumbfounded.

Where did the little junior brother go?

Could it be that Miss Nalin was mistaken?

He hurried to Xiaomei Garden again, and ran to the building where Shen Muzhi lived to take a look, the tables and chairs inside had fallen with thin dust, and there was nothing Shen Muzhi to see, and his brows were really knotted now.

After leaving Xiaomei Garden, Zhou Yu looked at the dense arbor forest around him, and couldn't help but sigh: "Little junior brother, little junior brother, where are you running to hide?"

Zhou Yu was anxious and went to Zhao He for help.

Zhao He heard what Zhou Yu said, and suddenly knew that most of the little junior disciples had secretly found a place to go to the cat. At that moment, after a little silence, he and Zhou Yubing parted ways and went to the peak to find those empty courtyards where no one lived.

But the two of them searched all the vacant courtyards on the peak, but they didn't see Shen Muzhi.

At this time, Zhou Yu was even more anxious, looked at Zhao He, and said anxiously: "You say, the little junior brother won't have an accident, right?"

Zhao He also frowned, with a worried look on his face.

Since the poisoning of Elder Zhang came to light, although the news that the murderer was Elder Hu had already spread throughout the Great Sword Sect, there were still many people who had opinions about Miss Lin. And when Hu Guangyuan questioned Shen Muzhi's identity in the palace, I don't know who spread it, and now there are all kinds of rumors in the door, when Shen Muzhi first entered the Great Sword Gate, he was suspected that Shen Muzhi was Lin Qingfeng's illegitimate son, and even many people believed it. Especially after someone heard that Zhao Zhengguang arranged for Miss Lin and Shen Muzhi to live in Xiaomeiyuan together, many people were convinced of this.

In the case of Elder Zhang, although Miss Lin was innocent, most of the people in the sect were still hostile to Miss Lin. Even Zhengyang Peak, there are a lot, but because of Zhao Zhengguang, they don't dare to show it too obviously. Since Miss Lin moved to Zhengyang Peak, she has basically lived in Xiaomei Garden and rarely left. In Xiaomei Garden, ordinary disciples can't enter, and if someone forcibly breaks in, Zhao Zhengguang can also sense it immediately.

And even if Lin Changying left Xiaomei Garden, with her skills, ordinary disciples would not be able to move her. If the other elders did it, Lin Changying might not have any power to resist.

The biggest reason why Lin Changying was able to be taken away from Zhengyang Peak was that Zhao Zhengguang was guarding Shen Muzhi at Qingliang Peak at that time.

But now that Zhao Zhengguang is in the Xiaoling Sword Pavilion every day, plus there was an Elder Hu as a lesson from the past, even if someone has an idea, they have to hesitate and hesitate.

But Shen Muzhi is different. He is only in the bending bone realm now, if there are people with evil intentions who want to attack him without attracting Zhao Zhengguang's attention, there are countless ways.

And those who are hostile to Miss Lin can't move Miss Lin, and it is very possible to turn to deal with Shen Muzhi. After all, many people now believe that Shen Muzhi is Lin Qingfeng's illegitimate son!

Thinking of this, Zhao He's heart was even more worried, and after glancing at Zhou Yu, he suddenly found that the two of them probably thought of going together.

Zhou Yu suddenly panicked.

If something happens to this little junior brother, although it can't be said that it is his responsibility, but as a senior brother, even if the master doesn't blame him, his heart will not be happy.

"I'll go to Master. If the little junior brother is still on the peak, the master will definitely be able to find out. Zhou Yu said, about to leave.

When Zhao He heard this, after a little hesitation, he hurriedly stopped him.

"What's wrong?" Zhou Yu frowned at him.

Zhao He said, "Don't be too busy telling Master yet. Didn't you just say that you saw the little junior brother yesterday? But Miss Lin said that he hadn't been back to the little plum garden for several days, so the little junior brother might not have had an accident, but was just hiding in a place we don't know! Otherwise, I'll go to Senior Brother Bai and them for help, call a few more people, and look for them in this mountain together. If we still can't find it after an hour, then we'll go and inform Master. Senior brother, what do you think?"

Zhou Yu shook his head: "No." It's too risky. If the junior brother is just hiding, it will naturally be fine. If it was really taken away, it was probably the hand that was used last night. It will take at least four or five hours. It would be too dangerous to delay it for another hour. Otherwise, you go to Senior Brother Bai and they continue to look for someone, and I will inform Master. Zhou Yu's face was full of anxiety, especially when he thought that he had told the master before that the little junior brother had been living in the Peach Blossom Forest recently, and if he went to tell the master again that the little junior brother was gone, he might be taken away, and he couldn't think about what kind of reaction the master would have at that time.

"That's fine. Zhao He hesitated for a moment and nodded.

Zhou Yu left in a hurry, Zhao He frowned, and hurried to find Bai Yu.

And when Zhou Yu and Zhao He thought he was arrested and were extremely nervous, Shen Muzhi was sitting alone on the side of the mountain stream, facing the sunlight reflected from the waterfall, closing his eyes, and carefully investigating the situation in the dantian in his body.
