Back then, there was no way to find out the truth, but now the truth is actually there, and it just depends on which one those people are willing to believe.

Zhou Yu was in a bad mood, so Shen Muzhi didn't ask about it anymore, and after standing downstairs with him for a while, he sent him back to the room.

After sending Zhou Yu back, Shen Muzhi went back to the room by himself, he was going to rest, but he couldn't calm down in his heart, so he went out of the room again, ready to go downstairs to fight another set of punches.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I got out of the room, I happened to see He Xian downstairs, dressed in a black suit, but he had never seen it before, and it seemed that he was going out.

Shen Muzhi was slightly shocked when he saw him dressed like this.

He Xian downstairs had also heard the movement, and when he turned around and saw that it was Shen Muzhi, he smiled slightly and said, "I'll go out and I'll be back soon." ”

Shen Muzhi didn't know why, he felt a little uneasy in his heart, and subconsciously said, "Be careful." ”

The smile on He Xian's face froze slightly, and then he nodded and said, "Okay." ”

Then, with a flicker of his body, he floated towards the peach blossom forest like a ghost, and in the blink of an eye, he had disappeared into the darkness of the peach blossom forest.

Shen Muzhi was already worried, and now he was even more uneasy.

Anyway, I didn't want to sleep when I went back to my room, so I simply waited downstairs while boxing.

In the middle, Zhao He came out of the room, and saw that Shen Muzhi had been boxing downstairs, and he didn't make a sound to disturb, and after watching quietly for a while, he went back.

Time passes slowly.

Overhead, the crescent moon gradually shifted, and quietly reached the west.

Seeing that the sky is about to dawn, He Xian has not come back yet.

Shen Mu's heart became more and more uneasy. When he was hesitating whether to inform Zhou Yu and Zhao He, a figure suddenly walked out of the peach blossom forest, it was really He Xian in a black suit.

He Xian had also seen Shen Muzhi who was still downstairs, and couldn't help but be stunned.

"Have been waiting for me?" He Xian looked at him, frowned slightly, and asked softly.

Shen Muzhi looked at him, saw that his expression was normal, he breathed a sigh of relief slightly, and then grinned: "It's not, it's just upset, I can't sleep anyway, so I came down to practice boxing." ”

He Xian didn't say anything, smiled at him, and went back to the room.

Shen Muzhi's heart that he had been carrying was relaxed, and after practicing boxing all night, he finally felt a little tired, so he also went back to his room to rest.

It didn't take long for the day to dawn.

Zhou Yu cleaned up early and went back to Zhengyang Peak, and when he left, no one bothered, only asked Zhao He to turn around and talk to Shen Muzhi and He Xian.

As soon as he left, Shen Muzhi also got up, and when he came out, he happened to meet Zhao He, who had just sent Zhou Yu away, and after hearing him say that Zhou Yu had left, he suddenly remembered Zhou Yu's sad appearance last night, and couldn't help but feel heavy in his heart again.

Zhao He already knew from Zhou Yu that Shen Muzhi had known about the recent events, compared to Zhou Yu's ability to speak, although Zhao He was not good at words, but in fact, his mind was more delicate than Zhou Yu, and when he saw Shen Muzhi's suddenly solemn expression, he probably guessed what he was thinking, so he opened his mouth to persuade: "Senior brother don't worry about these things, Master and Senior Brother will handle it." ”

Shen Muzhi nodded, trying to squeeze a smile at him.

Zhao He also smiled, even though he didn't know what to say, he was speechless, and after glancing at each other, Shen Muzhi took the lead and said, "Then I'll go down and fight first." ”

Zhao He smiled and said, "Okay." ”

After Shen Muzhi finished a set of punches downstairs, the sun just shone into the peach blossom forest. On the verdant grass on the ground, there were fine dew drops, and in the sun, they were colorful and dazzling.

After resting for a while on the peach blossom forest grass, Shen Muzhi was about to go back to the room to change his clothes, just arrived at the door of the room, and before he could push the door in, he saw He Xian coming out of the next room, and was about to say hello, He Xian first asked: "I'm going to Jianshou Peak, do you want to go with me?"

Shen Muzhi looked at He Xian, feeling that there was something else in his eyes, and his heart suddenly moved, and he nodded in agreement almost without hesitation.

"I changed my clothes and said to Senior Brother Zhao. Shen Muzhi said.

"Good. He Xian replied with a smile: "I'll wait for you downstairs." ”

"Hmm. After Shen Muzhi nodded, he hurriedly went into the house to change his clothes first, and then went to another room to find Zhao He, and told him about going to Jianshou Peak with He Xian.

When Zhao He heard that Shen Muzhi was going to Jianshou Peak, he couldn't help but become worried, and after hesitating for a while, he asked, "Senior brother is going to Jianshou Peak, but is there something important?"

Although Shen Muzhi saw his worries, he didn't understand why he was worried for a while, and after a little consideration, he replied, "There is something." ”

When Zhao He heard this, his brows frowned slightly, and after muttering for a while, he didn't say anything, but just walked out of the room with him, went downstairs, and after seeing He Xian, he suddenly said: "I heard that my junior brother said that you are going to Jianshou Peak, can you let me go with me?"

Shen Muzhi couldn't help but glance at Zhao He in surprise, and there was a faint embarrassment on his face.

He Xian was stunned for a moment, looked at Zhao He, and frowned slightly. He knew what Zhao He's request was, but the reason why he proposed to let Shen Muzhi's companions go to Jianshou Peak was actually for a purpose.

If Zhao He is allowed to accompany him, I am afraid that it will be inconvenient to act later.

With Yun Qian's cleverness, if he learned that Zhao He had appeared at the head of the sword, I am afraid that he would immediately become vigilant.

So, after some consideration, He Xian still found an excuse to refuse Zhao He, and said, "Later, my Elder Shi on the Peak may come over to deliver some things, can Senior Brother help me wait for him here?" ”

Zhao He was originally a person who was not good at words, He Xian said so, so he naturally had to agree, and then watched with sorrowful eyes as He Xian left the Peach Blossom Forest with Shen Muzhi.

From Qingliang Peak to Sword Head Peak, it only takes a moment for Edgeworth.

It's just that after He Xian left the Peach Blossom Forest with Shen Muzhi's imperial sword, he didn't go straight to the sword head peak, but just out of the range of Qingliang Peak, he collected the flying sword, and in a mountain forest, he fell into shape.

The mountains and forests are dense, and the valleys are a little dim because the morning sun has not yet shone into the forest.

Shen Mu was puzzled, raised his eyes to look at He Xian, and waited for him to explain.

He Xian looked at him, smiled a little embarrassedly, then smiled, and said with some solemnity: "You should have guessed that the reason why I asked you to go to Jianshou Peak with me is actually for a purpose. ”

Shen Muzhi nodded, and then said, "Brother He Xian just said it. ”

He Xian smiled, his eyes were warm, and then said, "Your master and I both suspect that Miss Lin may be on the Sword Head Peak. However, the status of Jianshou Peak in the door is different, and it is not good for the disciples of Zhengyang Peak to go directly to the peak to search, so they can only find another way. I had searched most of the places surreptitiously last night, but I didn't find any trace of Miss Lin. Now there are only three places left, but I can't get close to those places directly, so I'll have to ask you for a favor later, and go over and help investigate. ”

When Shen Muyi heard that he was going to find Miss Lin, his heart suddenly became excited. Just when he was about to say yes, he suddenly wanted to say that he was basically unfamiliar with Jianshou Peak, so how could he find someone? If he walked around the mountains and fields, I was afraid that before the person could be found, he would be detained by the people of Jianshou Peak first.

Shen Muzhi thought about it and expressed this worry, and He Xian replied: "Don't worry, I will let Xiaoping go with you when the time comes." If you meet someone on the way to ask you, just let Xiaoping deal with it. ”

When Shen Muzhi heard that he let Xiaoping go with him, thinking of his timid temperament, he was suddenly a little unoptimistic, and after hesitating for a while, he said to He Xian: "Xiaoping is timid, he may not be able to do this." ”

He Xian said: "You don't have to worry about this, I will tell him." If anyone really suspects something, you just have to insist that you just follow Xiaoping. Otherwise, don't say more. ”

He Xian said so firmly, even if Shen Muzhi was worried, he couldn't say anything.

Then He Xian gave Shen Muzhi a small jade talisman and said, "If there is any critical situation at that time, crush this jade talisman." I'll be there right away. ”

After Shen Muzhi took it, he carefully put it away on his body.

He Xian watched him put the things into the placket of his body, was slightly surprised, and said, "What about the things I gave you before?"

Shen Muzhi was stunned for a moment.

He Xian immediately smiled bitterly to himself again, and said, "You haven't seen those gifts yet, right? Go back and sort it out, if you don't know how to use it, just ask me or ask Zhao He." ”

Shen Muzhi didn't understand why He Xian suddenly mentioned the gift, but he didn't think much about it, just when he suddenly remembered, he responded with a hum.

"Gone. After He Xian greeted, he waved his hand to summon the flying sword, pulled him and jumped on the flying sword, and rose into the sky.

In a moment, the two of them arrived at the peak of the sword, and they fell directly not far from where Xia Ping lived.

In the pine forest, Xia Ping was chopping firewood, and when he saw He Xian and Shen Muzhi appearing, he couldn't help but be a little excited, hurriedly threw the firewood knife, and came over to salute them one by one.

He Xian looked at him, smiled and exchanged a few words with him, and then suddenly asked, "Where is Grandpa Qin?"

Xia Ping turned his head and looked around, and replied, "I don't know, it's still there just now." ”

He Xian also looked around, and after confirming that Grandpa Qin was not nearby, he said to Xia Ping: "Xiaoping, I have a few words to say to you, you come in with me." ”

Xia Ping saw that He Xian's expression seemed to be a little solemn, and he couldn't help but feel a little nervous, and hurriedly followed He Xian into the house.

Shen Muzhi didn't follow up with interest, and when he saw the firewood pile next to Xia Ping that he hadn't finished, he picked up the firewood knife and moved.

The two chatted in the room for a while, and when they came out, He Xian said something to Shen Muzhi and went to the Qintian Hall in front, saying that they were going to talk to Yun Qian about something.

Xia Ping, on the other hand, was faintly uneasy in his expression.

Shen Muzhi looked at it in his eyes, and couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive in his heart.

"Brother Mu, let's go. Xia Ping stepped forward, probably pretending to be pretending to be worried, so he didn't even care that Shen Muzhi had helped him chop the firewood almost to the ground, and after speaking, he went to the side and took a back basket and put it on his back, and led Shen Muzhi to the back of the house.

When Shen Muzhi saw this, his heart was even more bottomless.

The house is surrounded by a large pine forest. There are many squirrels in the forest, people have passed, and these little guys on the trees have been alarmed, jumping non-stop, and from time to time they also drop a few pine cones, making a squirming sound.

Shen Mu's heart was worried, and after walking for a while, he couldn't help but ask, "Xiaoping, what did Brother He Xian say to you in the house just now?"

Xia Ping, who was walking in front, paused slightly, and then replied in a muffled voice: "He said that I should help him order Songzhi." ”

Digging up Songzhi?

Shen Muzhi was stunned for a moment.

He was suspicious, and after a little hesitation, he asked, "What is Songzhi?"

Xia Ping replied: "A medicinal herb." ”

After listening to this answer, Shen Muzhi was silent for a while, and then asked, "Is this Songzhi only available on the Sword Head Peak?"

Xia Ping nodded: "Well, and there are only a few places on the Sword Head Peak that will grow." ”

When Shen Muzhi heard this, his heart suddenly lit up.

No wonder Brother He Xian said that if you meet someone, let Xia Ping deal with it.

It turned out that Brother He Xian didn't tell Xiaoping the truth at all. However, it's normal, with Xiaoping's character, if he says something, I'm afraid that if he meets someone, he will make a mistake.

Shen Muzhi thought about it, and breathed a sigh of relief. However, as soon as I thought about it, I had some more doubts in my heart.

He looked at Xiao Ping who was walking in front of him again, obviously in a dignified mood, and couldn't understand why he was so uneasy since Brother He Xian just asked Xiao Ping to dig up some herbs?

Thinking about it, Shen Muzhi couldn't help but ask tentatively again: "Xiaoping, are you in a bad mood?"

Xia Ping didn't say anything.

Shen Muzhi didn't give up, and asked again: "Did Brother He Xian tell you something?"

Xia Ping paused slightly, and then hummed softly.

"Can you tell me about it?" Shen Muzhi was a little faster at his feet, caught up with Xia Ping, and walked side by side with him.

Xia Ping lowered his head and was silent for a while before he finally spoke: "Brother He Xian said that I may not be able to stay in the door any longer." ”

When Shen Muzhi heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked, "Why?"

"I can't practice. In the low voice, there was a lot of loss.

Shen Muzhi turned his head to look at his depressed and helpless appearance, and couldn't help but feel a little distressed, and after sighing secretly, he reached out and hugged his shoulder, and said with a smile: "If you can't practice, you can't practice, and life doesn't have to practice to be meaningful." Let me tell you, the life under the mountain is actually quite interesting......" As he spoke, Shen Muzhi told him about the scenes he thought were interesting when he was a child in Jinling City.

Xia Ping was still young, and after a short time, he was attracted by the interesting scene described by Shen Muzhi, and his mood was not as low as before, and gradually, the corners of his mouth also had a little smile.

The two of them said as they walked, and after about two quarters of an hour, the terrain, which was originally quite flat, suddenly changed, and the bare rocks were getting bigger and bigger one by one.

The old pine trees, which have lived for an unknown number of years, grow between these boulders, and every ravine of the cracked bark tells the vicissitudes of life.

The pine cones, which were bigger than a fist, fell everywhere.

Xia Ping began to look around the boulders in search of pine mushrooms, occasionally keeping an eye out for pine cones larger than his fist, and sometimes picking up one or two in his back basket.

Shen Muzhi, on the other hand, began to pay attention to whether there were any places around where people could hide.

This boulder forest is not very large. Shen Muzhi turned around, and it didn't take much time, he paid close attention to every boulder he felt might be able to hide people, but he didn't find any clues.

And Xia Ping turned around, and after picking up a bunch of pine cones, he also didn't find a single pine tree.

Shen Muzhi couldn't help but be a little surprised: "Is this pineapple so rare?"

Xia Ping replied: "Not really, but if you want to use medicine, the requirements for Songzhi will be higher." So, it's going to be harder to find. As he spoke, he beckoned Shen Muzhi to go to the next place.
