Chapter 34: The Meeting
After Xu Yunxi entered the room, he guessed that there was a secret mystery here, so he squatted down directly to check, and soon opened the secret grid and jumped down the secret passage.
Since Yan Lan picked up the copper coin and cold arrows, there should be a mechanism here, Xu Yunxi opened the door and touched under the candlesticks on both sides, and with a light press, the sound of arrows retreated, and he passed the corridor smoothly, and then paid attention to the place where Qiao Yiling was arrested.
The surroundings were empty, Xu Yunxi could feel as if he had eyes staring at him, so he simply stopped cowering and walked to the chair in front of the hall chair generously, "Honorable, come out!" ”
"Hahaha......" A cold voice sounded from behind Xu Yunxi, "Xu Gongzi, I've been waiting for you for a long time!" ”
As soon as the words fell, a gust of cold wind came from behind, Xu Yunxi flashed to the side, and the silver-faced man was not trying to sneak attack him, but to sit on the chair in the hall.
The two looked at each other, the silver-faced man's eyes were gloomy and cold, Xu Yunxi had never seen the same eyes as him in the rivers and lakes, and his heart was full of doubts.
"You said wait for me, I don't know what's the matter?" Xu Yunxi relaxed from a defensive expression, opened the fan, and calmly calmed down.
"Xu Gongzi, I heard that you have established a Yunxia organization to solve grievances in the rivers and lakes, which is very interesting below." The silver-faced man leaned on the chair frame with his hands open, and his eyes turned to playfulness.
"This silver-faced man, can you talk to me properly, your voice sounds weird." Xu Yunxi didn't answer his words, but suddenly said this, and the silver-faced man's eyes immediately became fierce.
"Young Master Xu, don't you toast or eat and drink!" The silver-faced man raised his hand, and the black-faced man pushed Qiao Yiling, who was tied, and walked out.
Xu Yunxi breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, Qiao Yiling was fine.
"Brother Xu!" Qiao Yiling looked at Xu Yunxi, who came alone, and sweated for him in his heart.
"Xu Gongzi, I sincerely befriend you, I don't know if you appreciate this face?" The silver-faced man was polite in his words, but his words were in a tone that could not be denied, this was Ming Na Qiao Yiling to blackmail him.
Xu Yunxi smiled contemptuously, "Okay, but you have to return this girl to me first." ”
"Not at this time, if Xu Gongzi does something for me, I will send her to you safely." The silver-masked man simply didn't give him room to negotiate.
Xu Yunxi was curious, "What's the matter?"
"Kill Jiang Xiaotian." A chill appeared in the silver-faced man's eyes, and a sneer curled into his lips hidden under the mask.
Qiao Yiling was greatly surprised on the side, she didn't want to drag them down, and asked Xu Yunxi to do such a rebellious thing for her.
Kill Jiang Xiaotian? It stands to reason that Yanyu Villa has already been given to Nie Changnan, and Nie Changnan should be killed, how could it be Jiang Xiaotian? Xu Yunxi was suspicious in his heart, but his face was still silent.
"Gongzi Xu, in fact, I am a person with you, but you were all deceived by Jiang Xiaotian." Seeing that Xu Yunxi didn't speak, the silver-faced man further induced.
"Oh?" Xu Yunxi pretended to be surprised.
The silver-faced man saw that Xu Yunxi didn't want to talk to him, "Xu Gongzi, I don't have time to talk nonsense with you, you only say what you should and shouldn't." ”
Xu Yunxi lowered his head and pondered, Qiao Yiling was a little worried, and called him, "Brother Xu, don't be at his mercy, you go back, I didn't ......"
The black-faced man covered her mouth with one hand, Qiao Yiling couldn't struggle, and Xu Yunxi was worried between his eyebrows.
At this time, Qiao Yiling's struggling hand behind her faintly felt that the rope was loose, and the black-faced man paid attention to Xu Yunxi's movements and had no time to care about her, so she stopped resisting and quietly moved.
Xu Yunxi was about to answer, when he heard an "oops", it turned out that Qiao Yiling untied the rope, and his right elbow crutched back, and the black-faced man took half a step back in pain.
At this time, Xu Yunxi flew out of the folding fan and attacked the silver-faced man, and the two sides were entangled together.
Qiao Yiling lost her weapon and was at a disadvantage with the black-faced man, Xu Yunxi caught a glimpse of her struggling appearance, shook her move, and stepped on the chair to help Qiao Yiling.
Qiao Yiling got a free time, saw her flute on the bookshelf, flew to get it, the silver-faced man stepped forward to stop her, but was intercepted by Xu Yunxi, and he temporarily blocked the attack on both sides.
Qiao Yiling took the weapon and stabbed at the silver-faced man, the silver-faced man dodged, hit a palm, and the long sword slashed towards Xu Yunxi, Qiao Yiling hurriedly retracted the offensive and protected Xu Yunxi.
The four of them were inseparable, and suddenly, the silver-faced man grabbed Qiao Yiling's right shoulder, Qiao Yiling's left hand flute waved to his right shoulder, and the silver-faced man grabbed and pulled hard, and Qiao Yiling was about to be dragged. Seeing this, Xu Yunxi kicked down the black-faced man to save Qiao Yiling, the silver-faced man threw Qiao Yiling to the side, the black-faced man got up and was about to catch Qiao Yiling, Xu Yunxi rushed to the black-faced man again, at this time, the silver-faced man raised a palm and hit Xu Yunxi behind him, Qiao Yiling saw that Xu Yunxi was in trouble, didn't think much about it, ran towards him and took the palm, and immediately spit blood.
In fact, Xu Yunxi was a false move, he expected the movement behind him, and deliberately used his strength to bring the palm wind to the black-faced man, taking advantage of this to escape, who knew that Qiao Yiling misunderstood that he was suffering at both ends, Xu Yunxi turned around and hugged Qiao Yiling, slapped a palm with one hand, and withdrew from the corridor with light power in the back, and fled quickly.
The silver-faced man dodged Xu Yunxi's palm, and the black-faced man was about to chase out, but he stopped him and let the two leave.
Xu Yunxi helped Qiao Yiling back to Yanbo Building, but fortunately, Qiao Yiling's injury was not too serious, and Xu Yunxi breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, Sheng Lingyun and Xiao Ziyan have not come back yet, where did the two of them go, won't they also go to Zhoumen!
Since returning to Siyi Building, the frightening door has been straining his face, packing up things in the room, Yan Lan was annoyed with staring, and he hadn't waited for the news of Yanbo Building for a long time, so he was a little anxious, and went downstairs to take a look.
As soon as he left the inn, he saw Sheng Lingyun and Xiao Ziyan rushing over, "Yunxi, where are they going?" ”
Yan Lan saw that the two of them were in a hurry, and knew that Xu Yunxi had not come back yet.
Yan Lan told the two of them what happened, Sheng Lingyun's mind was hot, and he was about to go to Zhoumen, Xiao Ziyan hurriedly stopped him, "Sheng Gongzi, it's not a way for us to go directly like this, what if we break in and Xu Gongzi comes back?" ”
"Yes, why don't I stay here, one of you will go back to Yanbo Building and wait, as long as one of you goes to investigate near Zhoumen, don't go in, come back and discuss!" Yan Lan came up with an idea.
The two nodded, "Ziyan, you go back." Sheng Lingyun urged Xiao Ziyan, and Xiao Ziyan turned around and was about to leave.
"It's back!" Yan Lan suddenly pointed into the distance, and Xu Yunxi ran towards him.
Everyone gathered and found a hidden place to briefly explain the ins and outs of the matter, the Storm Gate was going to leave tomorrow, and it didn't matter much, Yan Lan went back to Yanbo Tower with them to visit Qiao Yiling.
Xu Yunxi let Qiao Yiling sleep with peace of mind when she went out, but how could she sleep, anxiously waiting for them to come back in the corridor, and finally saw the figures of a few people, she breathed a sigh of relief and greeted them.
"Why don't you get a good rest." Xu Yunxi stepped forward to support her, and the other three were also worried, and you asked her about her injuries word by word.
Qiao Yiling's face was pale, but she still smiled and said that it was okay, Xu Yunxi helped her into the room, forced her to recuperate, and watched her fall asleep before beckoning everyone to go elsewhere.
There were too many things that happened on this day, and Yan Lan said that the Dark Pavilion really wanted to recruit him, but he could help him return to the Flame Knife, and then arrange the next step after he got back the master.
The Dark Pavilion is really step by step, and he is not small, he knows that Yan Lan and Xu Yunxi are in a gang, but he still repeatedly asks Yan Lan alone, if they are suspicious of each other, it is beneficial to the Dark Pavilion, if they trust each other, will they dare to pull Yan Lan into the gang so openly and brightly?
Okay, the psychological warfare of the Dark Pavilion did win, the three of them didn't know whether what Yan Lan said was true or false, the identity of the Dark Pavilion was still unknown, they had been here for a while, but they still didn't get anything, if it went on like this, did he really want to play with it in the palm of his hand?
Yan Lan saw that the three of them were hesitant and unhappy, "You doubt me?"
Xu Yunxi had no choice but to appease him, "Don't worry about it, Gongzi Yan, after all, it is the Dark Pavilion that you went to see alone, and even the Storm Gate failed to meet you in Zhoumen, and our initial plan has been completely disrupted." Now we don't know what the deal between the Storm Gate and them is, and we don't know what their intentions are to win over the Jianghu Sect, and we still need to think carefully about what to do next. ”
Yan Lan stood up, "I have already agreed to the Dark Pavilion deal, if Gongzi Xu can trust me, I will return to the Flame Knife, take over their business, and I will inform you." ”
Xu Yunxi rubbed the bridge of his nose and raised his eyes to look directly at Yan Lan, "But Yan Gongzi, the charter wind is obviously also related to the Dark Pavilion, they naturally know that the charter wind is not the murderer of Shen Shiyi, so can they please you just using the flame knife head as a condition?" ”
Yan Lan snorted coldly, "Do you have a better way now?" ”
"Yan Gongzi, I believe in you." Sheng Lingyun also stood up, "Since the Dark Pavilion can help you recover the Flame Sword as soon as possible, and it also happens to fulfill your wish, you can be even-sided on both sides, we are naturally happy, but we are afraid that we will accidentally fall into the back." ”
"I have my own measure, what about Gongzi Xu?"
"Then I wish Master Yan good luck." Xu Yunxi finally relented, and Yan Lan took the lead to go back to the room.
"Ziyan, have you gained anything today?" Xu Yunxi waited until Yan Lan left before asking.
"We've gone around the city for a long time, and we've even checked outside the city, and I suspect that Zhoumen is just a small stronghold of theirs, not the helmsman."
"Well, there really shouldn't be only two people, it seems that we still have to go through the Storm Gate." After Xu Yunxi thought about it, on the one hand, Yan Lan and the Dark Pavilion were rounded, believe it or not, true or not, at least let the Dark Pavilion come forward, and it was not a way to stay in Dusk Xuan City, so he could only start from the Storm Gate.
Xu Yunxi was tired for a day, lying on the bed, and first remembered Qiao Yiling's slap that he blocked regardless of his body, that stupid girl, I don't know if she really fell asleep. remembered that the silver-masked man wanted him to kill Jiang Xiaotian, what did Jiang Xiaotian stop them from?
After meeting the silver-faced man, the Shocking Wind Gate left quietly the next day, with doubts about Yan Lan, and only after returning did he get the news that Yan Lan had resigned as the head of the Flame Knife, so, did he come to join the Dark Pavilion?
Qiao Yiling rested for two days before recovering most of his strength, they let Qiao Yiling have a good rest in the inn, and the four of them went to Zhoumen again, it was already empty, it seemed that they had changed places again, and the next thing was probably to contact the other eight major sects.
Qiao Yiling waited in the inn, remembered something and walked around the street, passing through the yamen, Qiao Yiling walked in directly, and the official came up to ask her if she wanted to report the case. "Oh, no, I'm from a neighboring town, and I see that the environment in Zhoumen is quiet, and I want to buy that house, so I came to ask whose place it is, and I might buy and sell it?"
"Girl, it has been abandoned over there for a long time, it used to be the residence of the imperial court after Zhou Yuanwai's son was admitted to the champion, and then because he was transferred to the south, this place has been kept, after a while, the county lord said that there is a master, so it has not been sealed, and now I don't know if the name has been changed, if you want to check, you can wait for us to report to the master, please have the results in a few days after the qualifications."
"Not for the time being, I'll go somewhere else to see if there are other houses that are directly repaired." Qiao Yiling thought that the time was too long, and the process was too miscellaneous and gave up.
"The girl can go to Shili Lane, that area is very quiet."
Qiao Yiling thanked the official and walked out, didn't think much about it, and went back to the inn.
