Chapter Seventy-Four: The One-Eyed Conspiracy
Seeing Lin Hao laughing uncontrollably again, Xiang Yantian could only smile helplessly, no matter how mature he became on the outside, he was still as off-line as he was back then. Please remember the URL of this site: .
The night deepened and deepened, and the wind became colder, blowing on Xiang Yantian's somewhat delicate body, and she couldn't help but shiver. There was a tingling pain all over her body, and she stumbled under her feet, almost falling. Fortunately, she still held the slender "Feiyan" in her hand, and pressed the tip of the sword sealed in the scabbard against the ground, and she barely managed to stabilize her posture. At this moment, she is probably not much stronger than the flower in the wind, and she will wither if something happens. But she was already like this, but she refused the support of Ouyang Minghao, who was standing behind her.
Looking at Xiang Yan's swaying body, even Lin Hao, who had carried out the thread to the end, stopped laughing, frowned slightly, and asked, "Xiao Yan'er, why are you injured?" Who the hell hurt you? ”
Faced with Lin Hao's question, Xiang Yantian could only smile bitterly and shake his head, but refused to tell the truth. What does this make her say? Although she subjectively thought that the silver-haired man who injured herself was Gongsun Shang, the commander of the Praetorian Guard in the current palace, the other party did not admit it, and of course did not deny it. She also understood that person should be Gongsun Shang, but a strange feeling emerged from the bottom of her heart, wanting to deny this feeling!
"Hey, the one from the Jiuyang Sect over there, why don't you protect Xiao Yan'er? With your ability, this shouldn't be difficult, right? It seemed that seeing that Xiang Yantian had no intention of answering, Lin Hao suddenly set his eyes on Ouyang Minghao behind her.
Dumbfounded, Ouyang Minghao could only show a wry smile: In the face of that person, what can you let me do? However, he seemed to understand Xiang Yantian's meaning and did not make any excuses for himself.
Since both of them deliberately concealed it, Lin Hao had no choice but to give up. Then, he turned around and walked towards Fang Biao, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Old Fang, prepare two upper rooms!" ”
Fang Biao also understood, and immediately nodded without hesitation: "Okay, good!" I'll send someone to prepare it right away! ”
Lin Hao showed a hint of "you are very interesting" and patted him on the shoulder again: "Yes, this is the demeanor that the lord of a city should have!" ”
Although Fang Biao was not the official who managed the city, as the leader of the largest force in this land, even with the continuous infiltration of the one-eyed forces today, he was still the de facto controller of the city.
After finishing all the dots and lying on the soft couch in the wing, Xiang Yantian remembered why Lin Hao was here? But it was getting late, and she had to suppress this question. After drinking the healing potion, she decided to take care of her injuries, so she slept peacefully.
The next day, Xiang Yantian woke up early, simply freshened up, and walked out of the room with the help of the maid.
Today, the weather is not good, the overcast sky is very low, and the gusts of wind blow through make people feel cold to the bone, obviously it was still moonlight last night, but this morning it has become like this. God is so fickle! Xiang Yantian couldn't help but sigh.
Standing at the door, feeling the cold of winter that had not completely dissipated, Xiang Yantian only felt a tingling pain in the wound. However, this maid invited by Fang Biao was also dedicated, and prepared the cloak to resist the wind and cold in advance.
Last night, before everyone dispersed, Fang Biao said that he wanted to talk to everyone today. Therefore, even if the serious injury has not healed and the weather is not very good, Xiang Yantian still plans to go out.
Putting on a cloak, accompanied by two maids, one left and one right, Xiang Yantian came to the courtyard last night again, pushed the door and entered the main hall, only to find that people had already taken their seats, leaving only a vacant seat above the left hand side of the long table. Obviously, it was for her. Knowing everyone's intentions, she stopped being formalized and sat directly in the vacant seat.
Ah San, who was standing behind Ah Kun, obviously shrunk his neck after seeing Xiang Yantian sitting. I'm afraid he didn't expect that he wanted to bring her back as a gift to the boss, but he brought back a Bodhisattva!
"Haha, Xiaoyan'er, how was your rest last night? Is the injury better? Lin Hao, who was sitting opposite Xiang Yantian, saw her sitting, and immediately asked with a smile.
Tapping his head, Xiang Yantian's gaze inadvertently swept to Ouyang Minghao, who was sitting next to Lin Hao, but saw that he looked sluggish, and the whole person stared listlessly at the table.
I'm sorry...... Xiang Yan poured into his heart and thought silently.
"I'm gathering you today to talk to you about One-Eyes and the Witch Gang. Although Miss Xia and Ouyang Shaoxia have nothing to do with this matter, I still hope that the two of you can observe. On the first seat, Fang Biao stood up and said solemnly. Now he seems to have regained his previous courage as a big brother, and the decadence of last night has been swept away.
Without thinking too much, Xiang Yantian nodded. In fact, she was also a little concerned about this matter, after all, Lin Hao, who was Senior Brother Yan Qing, was also involved in this matter. It's just that she looked at Ouyang Minghao opposite, but found that he was still listless, so she had to sigh in her heart.
"Although I was born as a robber, in fact we have been in the dart game business for a long time. But a few months ago, One-Eye and his bandit bandit went on a rampage around Tiger City, causing our business to plummet. So, we started the battle with them. In the beginning, we were still evenly matched, but then somehow someone from the Witch Gu Gang appeared on their side, and the highly poisonous Gu worms killed many of our brothers, and we were completely suppressed by them. In order to make a living, some of us have started our old jobs. When it came to the One-Eyed and the Witch Gu Gang, Fang Biao's eyes were full of hatred.
"Yes, yes, the little girl's bugs in the Witch Gu Gang are highly poisonous, although as long as I am careful, they won't hurt me, but it's still very difficult, and ordinary people will definitely die if they are right!" As soon as Fang Biao's words were finished, Lin Hao took over impatiently.
Robbers on the run? Xiang Yantian couldn't help frowning, and then she raised her own question: "Since they have developed to this point, have the government and the court not come forward?" ”
However, what she didn't expect was that as soon as her words were spoken, she attracted the incredible eyes around her. Those people were the backbone of Fang Biao's forces, and at this moment they were looking at her with an idiotic gaze.
"Now those officials are busy fighting for power and profit, as long as they have money, they will not take the risk to suppress the bandits!" An older man explained to Xiang Yantian.
"Now, according to the news, the One-Eyed are trying their best to expand their sphere of influence and gather more gangs, obviously there is some kind of conspiracy!" Ah Kun couldn't help but slap the table and stood up from his seat.
"Conspiracy?" Lowering his eyes to look at the "Feiyan" in his hand, Xiang Yan's lips moved slightly.
