Chapter 26: The Sun of the East (13)
The guards of the South China Sea never stopped the people who approached the villa openly, which was different from the Fushen headquarters and the other three branches, although it reduced the burden on the escort team, but it was also equivalent to the lack of a barrier, and the potential risks still existed.
It's just that the guards in the South China Sea are relatively up and down, and the other four regions are small, and the number of people is not enough to change shifts three times a day, and they are divided into two teams, and one team is worth six hours, which is really hard. With this in mind, Yi Lan still put the physical and mental state of the escort team in the first place, and removed the common practice of "as long as someone comes, the escort team will test it first", and nothing has gone wrong in the past two years, so it is naturally difficult for others to say anything.
However, when he came to the gate of Nanhai Villa, he was quite surprised to see that the first person to greet him was a cat.
The little gray cat, which looked very delicate, walked slowly towards him, rubbed his boots in his slightly lowered gaze, walked around him again, and then walked back to the place where he had been lying on his stomach and continued to lie on his stomach, even if it was to welcome him.
Yu Tingling beside him said with some amusement: "Is this what Brother Xiang said when he went to the headquarters to report on his work before, the ancestor that Feng He brought to the South China Sea?" He tilted his head and looked at the kitten who was already curled up in one place with his eyes closed and enjoying the sun, and couldn't help but wonder: "Didn't you say that you love to ignore everyone, my son-in-law's charm is really impeccable." β
Yi Fenghuan chuckled and shook his head.
When Tongyu Tingling stepped into the open door, a young man who didn't know where he was hiding before suddenly landed in front of them, bowed his head and said, "The guest has a commission?" β
Yi Fenghuan stopped and was noncommittal: "I want to see your deputy leader." β
Xu was touched by his voice, the young man actually raised his head, and the next moment his eyes lit up: "Beauty? Great beauty! β
Yu Tingling was stunned, clenched his fists and stepped forward and said viciously: "Presumptuous-"
Yi Fenghuan raised the folding fan to block the fist she was about to slam up, and still smiled good-naturedly: "I wonder if this young man can report for me?" β
"Of course, of course. You, you, you, all come. The young man nodded quickly, turned around and called in several directions, and immediately several more teenagers in the same uniform descended from the sky, also hanging their heads, "Lead the way to the hall for your guests." β
After saying that, he was about to leave, Yi Fenghuan thought about it, and stopped him first: "Don't worry, please take the young man to go down to the guard area for a tour first." β
The young man was stunned for a moment, and when he turned to look at him again, he already frowned: "We don't have a rule in the South China Sea to let an outsider visit the secret area. After a pause, he glanced at the two of them, "Two." β
"Hey, my temper-" Yu Tingling gritted her teeth, rolled up her sleeves and prepared to go.
Yi Fenghuan stopped in front of her in time, and smiled at the young man slightly apologetically: "It's abrupt, that annoying young man reports to Leader Yi." β
The young man then collected his emotions, nodded, and asked someone to take them to the living room.
On the way, looking at Yu Tianling's bulging appearance, Yi Fenghuan poked her cheeks with a folding fan, and chuckled: "Fang just said that your son-in-law's charm is impeccable, why are you angry again?" β
Yu Qianling glared at the two Nanhai disciples who led the way in front of him, and beeped quietly: "When it comes to 'beauty', who doesn't think of a woman first?" A little shrimp dares to call a big koi fish 'beauty' in front of him, who gave him the guts?! β
Yi Fenghuan didn't follow her, but said, "Yi Lan is doing well here." β
Yu Tingling was stunned: "Can you see this?" "Although according to what Xiang Sai said before, it is indeed true.
Yi Fenghuan nodded and opened the folding fan: "No one will be willing to treat her badly." β
Yu Tingling followed as if he didn't understand.
After sitting in the living room for a while, before even the tea that had just been served could be taken a sip, people were invited over.
It wasn't Yi Lan who came.
"Commander, here the guests are." The young man led the people all the way to the center of the hall, and then turned to them and said, "Forgive me, the deputy leader still has 'important business' on his body, and he will be here immediately." β
Chang Qing looked at the two of them, suddenly stunned, frowned and said to the young man: "'Guest'? β
The boy didn't notice anything wrong, just nodded and said yes.
Yu Tingling said at this time: "Commander Chang, my son-in-law wants to go to your guard area in the South China Sea to have a look." β
Chang Qing, who originally didn't know whether to salute or not, was sure of something when he heard this, exhaled, hooked his lips slightly, but lowered his eyebrows and eyes: "Chang Mou leads the way for the son and the girl." β
The young man who had just rejected the two of them on the grounds that "the confidential area cannot be shown to outsiders" was shocked for a moment, and the other people also looked up in surprise, looked at Yi Fenghuan and Yu Tingling, who had a "successful face", and then looked at Chang Qing, who had a humble face.
ββ¦β¦ Command? β
"It's okay, wait for your deputy leader to come, and tell her the truth." Chang Qing said to a few disciples in a harmonious voice, and finally turned to the two who had already stood up, turned slightly sideways, raised his arm and pointed to the door, "Childe, please." β
There was already some distance from the waiting room, and Chang Qing, who was walking in the front, slowly retreated to the back of Yi Fenghuan's side, parallel to Yu Tingling, and bowed his head slightly: "I hope that the leader will forgive the sin of being inconsiderate below." β
Yi Fenghuan shook his fan and said in a low voice: "The harmonious atmosphere in the South China Sea on weekdays, don't be disturbed by my arrival. β
Chang Qing smiled slightly: "Chief Xie is compassionate." β
Yu Tingling said with a smile: "In the past few years that Lan Lan has been in the South China Sea, Brother Chang and Brother Sai have not bullied her? β
Chang Qing shook his head a little amusedly: "It's quite pleasant to bully each other." He looked up at Yi Fenghuan again, paused and asked, "The leader is so fast, but is it because of the Xuan Pavilion Master?" β
Yi Fenghuan was noncommittal, slowed down slightly, and turned his head and asked, "You may see what kind of person he is?" β
Chang Qing thought for a moment and said in a deep voice: "Peerless." β
Yi Fenghuan's eyes widened slightly, and he suddenly stopped in place, and the two people behind him also stopped.
Obviously a little shocked by his evaluation, Yu Tingling blinked and asked, "You say that, obviously not just because of your appearance?" β
Everyone in the world knows that although the heir of Chongxiao Pavilion is a waste of martial arts, his appearance can rank seventh on the list of beautiful men made by Qionghualou. In fact, to be honest, she has seen the top ten of the male version of the beauty list, one, three, five, sixty, and nine, if she wants to rank it, it is really difficult to distinguish between the high, and many people are the same.
Therefore, the appearance of these ten people is almost the same, but Qionghualou has its own aesthetics, so it is lined up like this.
As for Qionghua's aesthetic ...... Don't mention it.
"Yes, as the leader thought, this Waste Wood Pavilion Lord is not as simple as it is rumored in the rivers and lakes." Chang Qing closed his eyes and said a brief description of the sudden arrival of Yi Lian, who was supposed to go to the Chongxiao Pavilion Forbidden Land yesterday to guard the spirits of the deceased Xuanting couple and his wife.
"According to common sense, Yi Lian shouldn't have learned that the Lord of the Xuan Pavilion was on our side now, and he was calm, as if he didn't care about the fact that the inside of the Chongxiao Pavilion was already in chaos, and wanted to ...... There must be a follow-up. Chang Qing said, "And who his master isβit seems that he can't be someone other than the Xuange master." β
Thinking of something, Chang Qing looked at Yi Fenghuan's back: "The client of this mission in the South China Sea, but the Xuan Pavilion Master himself?" β
Yi Fenghuan paused and nodded slightly.
Chang Qing frowned slightly: "In this way, the leader should know most of the details of the Xuan Pavilion Master." That's why I came in a hurry to discuss a plan with him.
Yu Qianling pursed his lips and hesitated: "Yes, since he can predict that the Lord of Tonghe Pavilion has the intention to seize the throne and place the commission a month in advance, no matter what the purpose is, it can show that this person is not simple."
"There is actually a niche saying about him in the rivers and lakes, saying that he is actually talented, so he practiced the first nine styles of Jiuxiao Qirihua at a young age, but because he was too eager for quick success, he was out of proportion and failed to break through when he practiced the tenth style, which led to the loss of internal strength and became a 'waste wood'."
She went on to add: "In recent years, the main branch of the Xuan clan has only one son in each generation, how can it not be cultivated with heart. If Xuan Yu really caused the loss of martial arts because of this, it was not unworthy of the position of the master of the Chongxiao Pavilion. What's more, this person's mind is extraordinary, even if he has no martial arts, he can't be easily seen through, and he must know the priorities of everything and be cautious and thorough. The leader is worried that he can't find an ally, and he sent an opportunity this time, which he naturally wants to take advantage of. β
Chang Qing thought for a while, nodded and said, "In this way, Fu Shen plays a role in supporting orthodoxy in this internal struggle in Chongxiao Pavilion, and it can be regarded as an alliance with it in disguise, everything is naturally easy to say." After a slight pause, he said: "This is good, but the Xuan Pavilion Lord is not an ordinary person and cannot be 'manipulated', so there is still a considerable risk in forming an alliance." β
Yu Tianling disagreed, and was even a little surprised: "Chongxiao Pavilion is the head of the seven decencies, this kind of thing is not proactive, what kind of decency is it worthy?" β
Chang Qing was speechless for a while, wanting to argue but not knowing whether to say it or not.
Instead, Yi Fenghuan replied: "Whether it is the Demon Sect, the Righteous Sect or other sects and organizations, the most important thing is their own interests. The best interpretation of the so-called 'righteousness of the rivers and lakes' is those truly chivalrous people who have no sect and no faction. β
Yu Qianling pursed her lips, and Chang Qing nodded, remembering something, and looked at her suddenly: "You just said that the Xuan Pavilion Master lost all his internal strength because of the failure of the highest breakthrough of the Nine Heavens and Seven Days?" β
Yu Tingling was a little frightened: "There is indeed such a statement, and the senior positions in the headquarters almost think so." β
His brows suddenly twisted into a knot: "If this is the case, not only will the internal strength be exhausted, but it will not be able to regenerate itself?" β
Yu Tingling nodded: "This is true." β
Probably hearing that there was something wrong with his tone, Yi Fenghuan glanced at him.
Chang Qing gritted his teeth slightly: "The leader may be sure that even Qionghualou's situation in Yilan can't be known, or even if they do, they won't sell this information to any level of resident?" β
Yi Fenghuan turned around, with some frost on his face: "What's wrong." β
Seeing that he didn't say anything clearly for a while with a calm face, Yu Tingling also said anxiously: "Yes, what's the matter, what's the matter with Guan Lanlan?" β
Chang Qing thought for a long time before sighing, but his tone was extremely serious: "There is one thing that does have a lot to do with Yi Lan, and it shouldn't be left to me. But in the past two days, there has been a lot of buzz in the villa, and she has been eating melons all day long, and she doesn't seem to have any intention of hiding it.
Yi Fenghuan frowned slightly, and his tone remained unchanged: "It's okay, there is no difference between what you say and what she says." β
Chang Qing took a deep breath, and finally planned to say it directly: "After being rescued by Yi Lan, the Xuan Pavilion Lord confessed to her and said that he would marry her. β
Yi Fenghuan and Yu Tingling both had a sudden change in complexion.
"I don't know the specific situation, but the leader still asked Yi Lan directly. It's just that the speculation that Fang Tingling said, his subordinates have had it before, and now that he has seen the Xuan Pavilion Master himself, he is even more sure. He said, "The leader and the others all know that Yi Lan's body is a living container for storing internal force, but if this matter is known to others, especially by the Xuan Pavilion Master who is unable to regenerate internal force and will have to take on great responsibilities in the future, then is his purpose of approaching Yi Lan really as simple as 'wanting to marry her'...... wife'?"
"Whether the leader really cherishes Yi Lan, or just uses her as a tool, his subordinates all hope that you will intervene in this matter, at least not let her be injured because of this kind of thing before that day comes."
Yi Fenghuan's eyes widened slightly.
Yu Qianling was also stunned, and couldn't help but say angrily: "What do you mean by this?" β
"What do you mean, naturally it means to pity her. The leader doesn't take Yilan as his family, but everyone in the South China Sea is different. Even if he knew that her fate was decided, he hoped that the leader would keep his original promise and let her leave this world without regrets and pain, instead of using others to destroy her soul for the sake of that plan. β
Chang Qing narrowed his eyes and said with a smile.
"If the Lord of the Xuan Pavilion really just asked the leader for her as a container that could absorb internal force at any time, I hope the leader refuses. After all, to achieve the so-called righteousness by such means is no different from the mad madmen in Biluo Palace, the leader thinks so? β
