In early summer, the willow trees are shady on the official road, and the warm wind hits people, on the fork of the official road to Yingzhou.

Zhou Yin said goodbye to Qiu Jun with a smile, "Let's just say goodbye here, this way the Qiu Hall Master has taken very good care of him, you bothered, thank you!" ”

Qiu Jun's coffin face has remained unchanged for ten thousand years, "No thanks." ”

Zhou Yin sat in the carriage all the way over and felt that he was too tired to ride a horse, and just now he deliberately got down from the car to stretch his muscles and bones and said goodbye to Qiu Jun by the way, seeing that the master of Qiu Tang maintained his usual cold style, concise and to the point, without the meaning of small talk, he nodded and turned around to return to the carriage to continue his journey.

As soon as he turned around, Qiu Jun spoke, "Why did Young Master Yao Han deliberately want to go with me this time?" ”

Zhou Yin turned his head and raised his eyebrows, "How do you know that I deliberately want to go with you?" ”

Qiu Jun looked at him with a deep gaze, "I only decided to go to Xiangxi on the first day, and you proposed to come to Yingzhou in the same direction on the second day, I think it's too coincidental." The little poetry in Yingzhou is not worth going, if you want to learn, you can go to the capital. ”

Zhou Yin generously admitted, "Okay, you say yes, in fact, it's not impossible for me to come out by myself, it's just that the journey is tiring, and I can be more comfortable with the master of the Qiu Hall." ”

The corners of Qiu Jun's eyes twitched faintly, "You mean that the reason why you are with me is because there are a few more people on the road to serve you?" ”

Zhou Yin smiled so hard that his teeth itched, and he said lazily, "Not bad." ”

Qiu Jun's chest rose and fell, "Young Master Yaohan, this is an extra move, you go directly to the owner of the village and ask him to send you two more people, and he will definitely be able to agree." ”

Zhou Yin said, "No! First, I don't want to open this mouth to him; Second, I feel that although the hall master is cold-faced and cold-hearted, he has no ill will towards me, and I am more relieved to let your subordinates take care of me. Speaking of this, he tilted his head slightly, looking at Qiu Jun with a hint of doubt, "Actually, I have always been a little puzzled, the Qiu Hall Master has always been iron-faced and selfless, and he doesn't pretend to be a color to anyone, why is it so good to me?" ”

Recently, the weather has been warm, Yao Han's originally pale and delicate face has a little more blood, Qiu Jun always feels that he is a little different with a smile, and he may not be able to say that there is a big difference compared to before, anyway, his demeanor is very moving, he habitually turns his face sideways, does not look directly, and simply replied, "You have the courage to pierce the Qi Sea Cave with one palm, I respect you as a character!" ”

Zhou Yin didn't expect this reason, he was very surprised, and put away the lazy smile on his face, "Hall Master Qiu, I originally thought that you had taken a fancy to me." ”

Qiu Jun was rarely embarrassed, "I-" I lost my voice for a while, and I didn't defend myself,

Zhou Yin actually nodded and admitted, "Hmm." ”

Qiu Jun's face turned pale, and then he sneered, "I also said that Yao Han Gongzi is quite a character and a character, but it turns out that he is just like this, a person who acts frivolously and shallowly." ”

Zhou Yin said seriously, "Master Qiu, I didn't treat you like that before, but I don't plan to say anything more now, you wait patiently, if I can live to be fifty years old, I will definitely come to apologize." ”

Qiu Jun had never heard such a strange talk, and he had to wait so many years to apologize, and frowned, "What do you mean by this?" ”

Zhou Yin told him, "I wasn't born with such a bad body, it was caused by running out of oil in the dungeon of the Nine Shadows Hall that day, and then I was slapped heavily on the Qi Sea Acupoint, and the injuries I suffered in front of me are naturally not on the head of the Qiu Hall Master, but although the last palm was hit by myself, it was also caused by you, which is always right?" Dr. Kong said that if I don't take good care of it in the future, I will definitely be a short-lived ghost, so I said that if I can live to be 50 years old, I will come to the door to apologize. Otherwise, I'll tease you only a few times and it's nothing, so there's no need to apologize. ”

This is the truth, but Zhou Yin has never said it explicitly before.

Qiu Jun was obviously hit, his face turned pale, he looked at him silently for a long time, and finally nodded slightly, "You be careful on the road, I-I'll go first." He raised his hand and called his two right-hand men, and ordered, "You don't have to go to Xiangxi with me, follow Yaohan Gongzi to Yingzhou, listen to his orders all the way, take care of them carefully, and don't miss anything." ”

Zhou Yin actually didn't want these two of them, it would be in the way to bring them around, but seeing Qiu Jun's expression, he couldn't bear to refuse, so he had to accept it.

Back to the carriage, let the coachman walk slowly, roll up the bamboo curtain on the window, let the warm breeze blow in, and enjoy the green willows and wildflowers beside the official road all the way, the more comfortable it is, and finally stay away from the unlucky place of Qilinzhuang.

Qiu Jun was the opposite of him, rushed to Xiangxi with a gloomy atmosphere, and after completing the things explained by Yuan Chang, he rushed back to Qilinzhuang with a gloomy atmosphere, but when he arrived at Qilinzhuang, he was shocked to learn that the owner of the village, who had always been calm, was losing his temper.

I was busy going to see Yuan Chang, and when I entered Yuan Chang's study, I was shocked, and I saw that the two subordinates I sent to Yao Han and the coachman who sent him to Yingzhou were kneeling on the ground in a row, all of them looked unlucky, and they couldn't raise their heads because of the anger of the owner.

He stepped forward and asked carefully, "Owner, what's wrong?" ”

Yuan Chang had been interrogating these three people for a long time, but he had no clue, raised his hand and pinched his eyebrows, and said in a deep voice, "Yao Han got rid of them in Yingzhou and didn't come back." ”

Qiu Jun's eyes widened suddenly, glared at his two subordinates, and said angrily, "How do you do things!" ”

The two of them were very aggrieved, "Hall Master, you only let us take care of Yaohan Gongzi for a good life, you didn't say that you want to watch him, and we really can't imagine that he will say goodbye without saying goodbye!" ”

Qiu Jun asked, "How did he get rid of you?" ”

The two said, "After returning from the poetry meeting the day before, Yao Han Gongzi said that he was tired and wanted to rest early, so we didn't dare to disturb him more at night, but he was already gone early the next morning, and only let Xiao Er bring us a message to say that he was going to find a suitable place to live permanently, and would not return to Qilin Village, so let us come back by ourselves." In the next few days, we almost turned Yingzhou City over, but there was no trace of Yaohan Gongzi, but I am afraid that he has already left Yingzhou, and we can't just come back to report to the owner. ”

Qiu Jun really never expected this kind of thing, he only felt a chill in his heart, that person left so chicly, and never came back to Qilin Village!

raised his eyes to look at Yuan Chang, and saw that he was no longer angry, but his face was very gloomy, his eyes were so deep that he didn't know what he was thinking.

======

Heming Mountain, return to the Tibetan Palace.

Since the Yunding Palace Lord of the Guizang Palace passed down the palace master's order a few months ago, all the people and horses stationed outside the Guizang Palace have all returned to the mountain one after another to participate in the conferral ceremony of the left protector of the Guizang Palace.

The left protector is a very special existence in the Guizang Palace, not every palace master has it when he is in power, and the position of the left protector has been vacant during the reign of the old palace master, not that the old palace master does not want to set up the left protector, but there has been no suitable candidate.

If you want to be the left protector of the Guizang Palace, you must first be able to break through the defensive array joined by the ten elders, and only after breaking through can you be qualified to compete for the position of the left protector! This condition alone has screened out countless people, and when the previous palace master was in power, no one who could break through the Ten Elders' Great Array had ever appeared, and the Guizang Palace naturally had no left protector.

Now this Yunding Palace Lord only succeeded to the throne half a year ago, and now all the matters of the alternation of the old and the new in the palace have been properly convened, and the disciples are convened to select the left protector in accordance with the old rules.

The formation of the Ten Elders has been laid out on the top of the light for two days, and there are many people who have come up to try their skills, but none of them have appeared so far who can break through the big formation.

The Yunding Palace Lord sat high on the main seat, looking lazy and arrogant, but in fact, the people around him who were familiar with him already knew that the Palace Lord was constantly tapping on the handle of the Yunlong armchair, which was a sign of impatience and worry in his heart.

This one's temper was very evil and uninhibited, and the new palace master soon intimidated everyone to bow down, so the surrounding attendants and guards were cautious, and no one dared to make a noise to provoke him.

It's a pity that they have controlled the near places but can't control the distance, and there was a buzzing sound at the entrance of the light top in the distance, and I saw a cyan soft sedan chair being lifted from the mountain road by a large stab.

At this time, all the important people in the palace gathered from the palace master downwards, and someone dared to sit in a sedan chair like this, which is simply incredible.

The Yunding Palace Lord's eyes sank and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

The guards in charge of guarding the mountain road up and down were panting and hurriedly came to report, "It's the disciples in the palace who want to give it a try." ”

The Right Dharma Protector immediately stepped forward and asked, "Why did you come here at this time, and which part does it belong to?" How dare he be so rude here! ”

The guard shook his head and said, "I don't know. ”

The Right Dharma Protector said angrily, "Look for death!" Don't know how to put him up? ”

The guard said in a trembling voice, "He has a piece of the Halloween Decree personally granted by the Palace Master in his hand, and we dare not stop it." ”

The right protector was stunned for a moment, and turned his head to look at the Yunding Palace Master, "Palace Master, this?" ”

Yun Ding's posture did not move, only a little fun appeared in his eyes, "Interesting, this palace has never issued a Halloween Order since he succeeded to the throne, could it be that the master and his old man have not taken it back?" He waved his hand and ordered the guard to stand down, and said to the crowd, "Just look and see." ”

Looking at the field together, I saw that the cyan soft sedan chair was carried to the edge of the competition platform before stopping, and a closer look found that the texture of the sedan chair was generally very ordinary, and the two sedan chair men stopped and wiped their sweat vigorously, covering up and looking around, their expressions were full of fear, and they knew that they were ordinary mountain people who would not do martial arts. What is this road number?

The cyan curtain of the soft sedan chair was opened, and a thin young man leaned out of it, first looked around, and then raised his face and nodded towards the Yunding Palace Lord, with a snow-white and delicate face with a little lonely and faint smile.

The Yunding Palace Lord sat up straight, the evil arrogance on his face was swept away, and he said in amazement, "Senior brother-?!" ”
