The young man looked at the token in Xu Mingyuan's hand, frowned slightly, and looked at Xu Mingyuan with some suspicion, "You really helped Brother Qi deliver something?" How is Brother Qi now, and where is he? ”

Xu Mingyuan put the token away, shook his head and said, "I haven't seen him again since we separated, I don't know what the specific situation is, you take me to see Chen Qiao now." ”

This young man didn't seem to know the news that Qi Haobo was dead, and since someone deliberately hid it from him, Xu Mingyuan naturally wouldn't tell him the news now.

"Okay, I'll take you to the old blind man." The young man nodded, a smile resurfaced on his face, he put away the short knife, approached Xu Mingyuan, rubbed his stomach, and said with a smile: "What's your name, look at your scholarly dress, I didn't expect martial arts to be so powerful, even I can't beat you." ”

"My name is Xu Mingyuan, you can call me Brother Xu." Xu Mingyuan nodded with a smile, his eyes swept over the short knife on the young man's waist, and he was still a little wary in his heart, after all, the young man's sudden attack before still made him feel a little palpitating.

"Xu Mingyuan, I'll still call you Xiao Xu, brother, I only recognize Big Brother Qi." The young man seemed to see Xu Mingyuan's vigilance, the young man pushed the short knife on his waist to the side, took the lead and walked towards the courtyard, and said with a smile as he walked: "Don't worry, I thought you were the scum of Jiannan Dao before, you must know that you are a friend of Brother Qi, I will definitely not stab you." "With a warm smile, where is it like the killer who used to be sharp.

"And what's your name?" Xu Mingyuan followed behind the young man, shook his head with a smile and said, it seems that this young man admires Qi Haobo very much. And the heart is simple, and it can be called straightforward.

"My name is Yi." The boy reached out and broke a willow branch without leaves. He said without looking back.

"Easy? Easy what? Xu Mingyuan looked around and asked casually.

"Yi is not a surname. My name is Yi. The young man stopped, looked back at Xu Mingyuan and said seriously.

"Yi, one-word names are rare." Xu Mingyuan was slightly stunned, nodded with a smile.

Young Yi continued to walk forward, kicked a stone, hit the courtyard wall three zhang away, and said with a smile: "The old blind man said that the killer doesn't need a name. ”

"Then why are you still called Yi." Xu Mingyuan said with a smile, the old blind man in Yikou's mouth should be Chen Qiao, and he didn't know that he was such a character. Hand over Qi Haobo and Yi, the two powerful killers.

Yi waved the willow branch in his hand, rolled his eyes and said, "It's troublesome without a name, you can't let people call that boy and that killer." My name was chosen for me by Brother Qi, saying that it would be easier to do anything with a name like this. At the end of the words, there was a little smugness, it seemed that Qi Haobo really admired him very much.

There are no simple things in this world, but with Yi's temperament, too complicated things are really not something he can handle. Xu Mingyuan shook his head and stopped answering. Instead, he looked at the courtyard.

As soon as I entered this courtyard, a murderous aura came to my face. Gray-and-white ordinary bungalows are staggered, seemingly irregular, but a chill rises faintly in people's hearts.

There is not a single house in sight here. All the houses are separated by the same distance, but in different directions, as if all the houses are the same. But it's all different.

Anyway, this is a very weird courtyard, obviously the same house. But if someone you don't know comes in, I'm afraid you won't be able to find a place at all.

Voices were faintly heard from those houses. Finally got a little angry. There were two rows of willow trees planted next to the courtyard wall, the leaves had long since fallen off, and the bare branches swayed gently in the wind.

On the road, there were occasional people wearing the same blue suits as Yi, but they were also strangers, and no one greeted each other at all. Looking at Yi's demeanor, he is obviously used to all this.

Yi led Xu Mingyuan forward, telling Xu Mingyuan not to look around and speak loudly, while telling him what these courtyards were for and who were staying inside.

Along the way, from Yi Kou, Xu Mingyuan has already figured out the general layout of the Yuntai Division, and looking at these houses again, he can be regarded as able to see some doorways.

This big courtyard is roughly divided into four parts, Xu Mingyuan and the place they are going to now are in the innermost part of the courtyard, and the two of them walked for a quarter of an hour before they arrived.

Along the way, although many people looked at Xu Mingyuan with inquiring eyes, none of them came forward to interrogate, but there was still some curiosity in their eyes.

Yi stopped in front of a house facing north, pointed to the house and said, "This is it." ”

Xu Mingyuan nodded, and glanced at the high wall of the imperial city that was faintly visible not far away, as well as a corner of glazed tiles sticking out of the wall, which seemed to be plated with a layer of gold under the winter sun, and that was the most noble place in Dawan.

Retracting his gaze, Xu Mingyuan pointed to a jet-black building on the other side of the bungalow, and wondered, "What kind of place is that?" ”

The house was quite large, more than a foot high, and was all made of inky black flat stones, standing alone in a clearing, and stood out from the gray-and-white bungalows around it.

Although it was still daytime, the black building had a gloomy and cold feeling, black and rich like night, like something that could swallow everything.

"That's a black prison, don't get close, those people don't look at people, they can't be said to be people at all." Yi glanced at the building, pouted, and said, it seems that he doesn't have a good impression of the black prison.

"Let's go in, the old blind man just said that he was going out to bask in the sun, and I don't know if he has come back." Yi said as he walked towards the house.

Xu Mingyuan turned his head and glanced at the black prison again, and followed Yi into the bungalow.

Although I don't know why the gray and white color is chosen, whether it is the style of the bungalow, or some small details such as the woodcarving of the eaves, all show the intentions of the craftsmen who built these bungalows.

The house sits south and faces north, some of which are not in order, and the floor is paved with flat bluestone slabs, and there are no gaps between the stones.

Xu Mingyuan followed Yi in, there was only one window in the house, but a dark blue curtain blocked most of the light, so it seemed a little dark in the room.

There was a dim oil lamp in the corner of the room, as if it would never go out, and there was a lot of dust on the blackened lampshade, which had not been wiped down for a long time.

There was only one person in the room, standing by the window, as if looking out of the window through the curtain.

Yi walked in quickly, and said with a smile: "Old blind man, Brother Qi has news, Xiao Xu said that he has something to bring to you." ”

Xu Mingyuan squinted his eyes slightly, adjusted to the dimness of the room, and couldn't help but be stunned as he watched the person standing by the window slowly turn around. (To be continued.) )
