Chapter 30: Counting the Stars
After entering the Lan Ye Mansion, the scholar led the way in front, walking all the way, Qingfeng couldn't help but sigh, the owner of this courtyard must be an elegant person, this courtyard is almost a step by step, step by step different scenes.
It didn't take long to come to Lan Ye's study, and the scholar stood at the door and said, "Lan Ye, someone brought it." β
A female voice came from inside: "Okay, you can go too." β
The scholar made a gesture of invitation to Qingfeng and left.
Qingfeng Lan walked in and saw that a woman was standing in front of the table with a pen and writing something, and when she got closer, she saw that her name was actually written, "I didn't expect Lan Ye to be a woman." β
After writing the last word, Lan Ye raised his head and said, "Could it be that the one who is called the master can only be a man?"
Qingfeng Lan smiled and nodded: "Then what does Lan Ye want to say to me?"
The woman's fingers were slightly raised, and a chair appeared behind Qingfenglan, and Qingfenglan also sat down.
Seeing Qingfeng Lan sitting directly on it, Lan Ye was stunned for a moment, and then smiled knowingly: "Sure enough, the young heroes are very confident." β
Qingfeng said: "Thank you Lan Ye for the compliment, don't say anything else, just this wood ability, I know a person who is much stronger than you, he didn't trap me, so you don't have to work hard." β
Lan Ye smiled and said, "I can provide the information you need, and you let me go." β
"That's all?"
"That's all!"
Qingfeng: "Can I know why? Lan Ye doesn't want to try if it's possible to run away from me?"
Lan Ye shook his head and said, "I heard it clearly when you were killing in the Lin Mansion, I wasn't stupid enough to run under your nose." β
Qingfeng: "Then can I know why you talked to me about this condition?"
Lan Ye knocked lightly on the table, and the bookshelf next to him slowly flipped over, only to see a person lying on the bed and being turned out. The person who was transferred out knows Qingfeng Lan and officially declares it!
Lan Ye pointed to Chen Ming on the bed and said: "This person was arranged by me to go outside the Saiwai, and there are several of my cronies who are accompanied by them, all of them are strong, they brought me a good news a few years ago, saying that a group of bandits had seen Phoenix, and then I sent my subordinates to find these bandits, but the news I got was that these bandits all disappeared." Chen Ming told me that he wanted the trust of outsiders, and then inquired about the news of the Phoenix, I never expected that all my cronies betrayed me, they hid Zifeng outside the Fortress, and were ready to wait until the right time to transfer the Phoenix to themselves, and hide from me to steal the sky with one hand. If they hadn't shown up at the appointed time this time, I would have gone out of the city to look for him, and I am afraid that I would not have been able to save him, and it was then that I realized that my subordinates had done so many things without me. After Lan Ye finished speaking, he shook his head helplessly.
Qingfeng: "Do you think it's possible to exchange such a little bit of information for your life?"
Lan Ye: "I can also tell you one thing, the village chief and that old man in Zifeng Village are not my people. β
Qingfeng smiled.
Lan Ye sighed slightly and said, "It seems that you already know, but do you know their identities?"
Qingfeng: "Oh, Lan Ye knows their identity?"
Lan Ye: "I don't know, but I know that they are from the imperial capital. β
Qingfeng Lan: "Lan Ye is really good at trading, saying these inconsequential things, just want to change his life?" Since you are involved, you must know Zifeng's true identity, since you know her true identity, you said that those two people are from the imperial capital, I'm afraid they are not teasing me." β
Lan Ye: "I know, but who do I know they are from the imperial capital?"
Qingfeng tilted his head and didn't speak, waiting for Lan Ye's answer.
Lan Ye: "Those two people are from Shen Lanyuan, the king of the north. β
Qingfeng: "How do you prove that what you say is true?"
Lan Ye shook his head and said, "I have no way to prove what I said, it's up to you to believe it or not." β
Qingfeng Lan raised his head and thought for a moment and asked, "What about you, who is the person behind it?"
Lan Ye: "As long as I tell the person behind me, you will let me go?"
Qingfeng nodded.
Lan Ye: "The Eighth Master and I are both at the orders of the Third Prince. β
Qingfeng: "The Third Prince?"
Lan Ye nodded.
Qingfeng Lan stood up and slapped the table with his palm and said: "I don't believe anything you say, but it is certain that the King of Beibei and the Third Prince must be involved in this matter, and you have helped me a little, so I also promised you that I will not kill you, but I may have to wronged you for a few days, just practice here for a few more days, and you will be free after Zifeng leaves here safely."
Technique: Fire Purgatory. A faint red spell appeared on the ground around it.
Lan Ye asked in disbelief, "Did you really let me go like this?"
Qingfenglan: "I'm not interested in the weak!"
After speaking, Qingfeng Lan turned around and left, leaving Lan Ye alone to stand in place, quietly looking at the door.
After returning to the City Lord's Mansion, he saw Yan Hao standing at the gate of the courtyard in armor, Qing Fenglan immediately walked over and asked, "Is something wrong with the City Lord Yan?"
Seeing Qingfeng Lan coming back, Yan Hao exhaled and explained: "After you leave, I mobilized all the forces of the City Lord's Mansion to protect this courtyard, I am afraid that if you have three longs and two shorts, they will attack the City Lord's Mansion and it will be over." β
Hearing Yan Hao's explanation, Qing Feng Lan sensed it, there were indeed several strong people's breaths around, and the breath of a few people was even deeper, if it weren't for Yan Hao's words, Qing Feng Lan didn't notice the existence of those people at all.
Qingfeng Lan arched his hand and said: "Thank you City Lord, evacuate all the people nearby, now there is no force in the Prison City that will be unfavorable to Zifeng." β
Yan Hao frowned and asked, "Yu Rong is indeed a good teacher, but don't be careless when you are in a gentle grade." β
Qingfeng smiled and said, "Since the city lord doesn't believe me, you can send someone to the Lin Mansion now." After speaking, he ignored Yan Hao and pushed the door in.
Yan Hao knew that Qingfeng Lan was Yu Rong's younger brother, where did he dare to let him go out alone, and when he walked out of the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, someone had already followed, but now that the person had not returned, Yan Hao was still a little uneasy.
After a while, a figure knelt down in front of Yan Hao and said, "City Lord, Gongzi Lan killed all the more than 700 people in the Lin Mansion, and went to Lan Ye's place, and Lan Ye's subordinates couldn't get in." β
Yan Hao asked with a look of disbelief: "Are you sure that more than seven or eight people were killed?"
"The villain is sure, if the city lord doesn't believe it, he can go and see it now, let alone enter the courtyard, even if he gets close, he can smell the strong smell of blood. β
Yan Hao thought for a while and smiled: "Hahaha, it is worthy of Yu Rong's younger brother, it is really a temper, okay, I won't go to watch it, you can deal with it." Everyone else should go back and rest, with him in this courtyard, no problem. With that, he turned and walked towards his yard.
After Yan Hao left, the people around him gathered together and glanced at each other, and then they all flew towards the Lin Mansion.
After entering the courtyard, he saw Yan chatting with Zifeng, but Yan had the red spear at his hand.
Seeing Qingfeng coming back, Yan hurriedly greeted him and asked in a low voice, "How is it?"
Qingfeng ignored the words and walked directly to the stone table and sat down, looked at Zifeng and asked, "What are you talking about?"
Zifeng suddenly covered her nose and frowned, Qingfeng Lan saw Zifeng's expression, and immediately lowered her head and sniffed it carefully, there was no smell on her body, and when she came back, she deliberately blew the wind before coming in.
Yan saw Zifeng's expression and was also dazed, but seeing that Qingfeng Lan didn't say a word, he turned around and returned to his room, and after Qingfeng Lan left, Zifeng let go of the hand holding his nose, took two deep breaths to confirm that there was no smell before relaxing.
Qingfeng Lan returned to the room and sniffed carefully for a long time, still didn't smell anything, Zifeng's nose is really better than a dog's nose, looked at the empty wardrobe, it seems that there is no way to change clothes, and now I am too lazy to go out and buy another set, let's do it tonight, and tomorrow there should be no smell, and then smell the clothes carefully, and make sure that I can't smell before going to bed and lying down.
Lying on the bed, I still can't sleep, and my mind is always thinking about the smell of my body, is it because I have killed too many people? Just like those iron-blooded warriors before? With a trace of blood on my body? But usually Zifeng didn't say anything, she smelled the smell of killing last time, and this time too, will she have to bathe and change clothes after killing people in the future?
I don't know how long later, the door was knocked, and when Qingfeng Lan opened the door, Zifeng stood at the door, but he tied a white cloth on his nose and held a set of black clothes in his hand.
Zifeng ran to the middle of the courtyard and shouted to Qingfeng, "Come to me after you change your clothes." β
Qingfeng Lan was very angry, no one has ever dared to do this to himself since he was born, let alone such behavior, even if he has any disgusted expression, unless he has beaten himself, otherwise he will definitely hit him until he doesn't even know his mother.
Angrily closed the door, threw aside the clothes Zifeng had brought, and lay on the bed angrily.
But after a while, Qingfeng got up and changed into the clothes that Zifeng brought, which was similar to the one he had before, but with some more white patterns, which looked pretty good.
After walking out, I saw Zifeng sitting at the stone table staring at the sky.
Qingfeng Lan walked over and sat next to Zifeng, looked at the sky and asked, "What are you looking at?"
Zifeng pointed to a very bright star and said, "Look at that star, I have also seen it in the village, but I didn't expect to see it here, it's amazing." β
Qingfeng Lan glanced up at the starry sky and asked, "Why are the stars I see almost bright? That one isn't very bright." β
Zifeng grabbed the breeze with one hand and shook it, and continued to point to the bright star with the other.
Qingfeng rolled her eyes when she was shaken, but she still echoed it.
Two people, you quarrel with me and choose a name for every star in the sky.
But Zifeng and Qingfenglan's ability to choose names is indeed a little weak, they are both extremely naΓ―ve names such as bright, crystalline, and shining, but the two of them are happy to take them until late at night.
It didn't continue until Zifeng's sleepy head slammed on the table, and they each returned to their respective rooms and fell asleep.
