Chapter 12: Blood Is Thicker Than Water (I)

There are two thieves in this world who are the most eye-catching. The ghost thief who steals the dead - Yama, and the great thief who steals the living - Feng Zhan. The former is actually said to be stealing, but more precisely, it is stealing.

Both Yama and Feng Zhan are good at stealing, but Yama is quick with eyes and hands, and Feng Zhan is quick with eyes and legs. Yan Luo's ability is actually much more than Feng Zhan, the five elements gossip, Qimen Dunjia, feng shui, metaphysics, architecture and other various things are very proficient, once Ye still commented that this ghost thief is a talent of heaven and earth, knows the hundred schools of astronomy and geography, and says that he is a thief.

There are very few skills in Fengzhan, but it can be better than a pole word. Any ability that has been achieved to the extreme can also break ten thousand laws in one way. The wind exhibition is very fast, and it is almost to the point where it is difficult for ordinary people and even warriors to understand and think that it is incredible. So it's not that he doesn't steal money from the dead, but he can't crack those weird tombs, but it's best to steal money from the living.

Yama is fighting backwards at the moment. No one knows the true name of Yama anymore. But underneath the mask, Yama is said to be a stunningly beautiful man. However, this cannot be verified, because of the extraordinary use of Qimen Dunjia, no one knows the whereabouts of Yama Mo.

At this time, the place where Yama was located was the Mausoleum of the Chu Emperor. It stands to reason that the tomb of the Chu Emperor should not still exist, because the enmity of Qin and Chu will not allow the royal cemetery of Chu to remain intact. It's just that the first emperor of Chu was a metaphysics fanatic. Believe in the doctrine of life and death. Therefore, in the state of Chu, the mausoleum of the emperor after his death was the highest level secret of the state of Chu. The location of the imperial tomb after the death of each emperor is also different.

Now, after seven years of painstaking visits to the north and south of the river, Yama finally found the tomb of one of the emperors, and he judged with his rich experience that the treasures hidden in it were of great value. It's just that now Yama is also in trouble.

Because he met a mausoleum keeper who was not trivial. This mausoleum keeper was dark-skinned, dressed in black fur, and rarely spoke, and he guarded the only entrance to the imperial tomb. There are many tombs of mausoleum keepers, but there is always a way to lure them away.

But this man seems to be able to sleep without sleeping, and he rarely talks to anyone. He hired a lot of people to try to lure away the mausoleum guards with the method of attacking the east and west, but to no avail. The man was as motionless as a mountain, standing motionless at the gate of the imperial mausoleum.

Yan Luomu inquired many times and learned from the local population that this person's surname was Zhang, who usually didn't like to talk, and was a stuffy oil bottle, but he was strong in martial arts and quick to respond. The face seems to not be old, and he has guarded the imperial tomb for more than ten years. It's a mysterious weirdo. (Note)

Yama tried his best to get this stuffy oil bottle to leave, and many of the masters he invited were easily defeated by this mausoleum keeper. As a last resort, Yama suddenly thought of a person, a person who was as famous as himself but loved money more than himself...... Wind Exhibition.

The Great Thief Wind Exhibition, in fact, Yama has wanted to get acquainted with it for a long time. Although Yama and Feng Zhan are equally famous, the two have never officially met, nor have they ever fought each other, everyone steals their own things, they are safe, and the well water does not interfere with the river water. Yan Luomu conservatively estimated that the value of the things in the imperial tomb was not lower than the bounty of any strong person in the martial arts, and he was very excited, but no one could break through the defense of this stuffy oil bottle head-on. And the top powerhouses on the rivers and lakes will not steal the tomb of the emperor of Chu for money. Therefore, like-minded people can only be the wind exhibition. Although Feng Zhan does not have strong martial arts, his super-first-class body skills can allow Feng Zhan to pass the mausoleum guards.

An unfinished plan slowly emerged in Yama's mind. But now, he has another problem. Yama is a very patient person who can lay out a plan for months or even longer. When he thought about asking Feng Zhan for help, he suddenly found that he couldn't find Feng Zhan at all.

is also a thief, when he committed crimes in the past, the frequency of wind exhibitions was much higher than his own, but it seemed to be ...... Since the end of last summer, he has not heard of the name of the wind exhibition.

It stands to reason that if a thief like Feng Zhan is caught, there is no reason for the empire not to make a big splash. Therefore, Yama thought that Fengzhan was not caught. It's just that he doesn't know where Fengzhan went. If there is no wind exhibition, then Yama will only have to devise a scam and let the top masters of the martial arts assist him in robbing the tomb.

But Yama was still curious, where did the thief with the same name as him disappear for nearly half a year?

……

Lianqing, Tang Suo Wild Grass House.

After returning from the Northern War, seeing Yimi again, Feng Zhan felt a stronger sense of longing and happiness than before. In the entire Northern War, he and Zhong Yunxiu did not do much, and the biggest achievement was probably to return Xiang Wu to the battlefield, and when the last few thousand people of the empire were about to fall, Xiang Wu was out of a state of serious injury and dying, and fought again.

In the end, a tragic but ultimately victorious turn came.

But it was also at that time that Feng Zhan and Zhong Yunxiu realized that being able to survive on the battlefield, regardless of the victory or defeat of the war, should be a kind of luck in itself.

So when the people at the inn decided to go to Donghai City for a vacation, Feng Zhan refused, and at his speed, it was only a two-day walk from Lianqing to Donghai City, so he chose to accompany Yimi more. Although Tang Suoye with her puppet is a terrible thing in the eyes of Fengzhan. But there's always more sweetness.

The life of the inn is naturally interesting, Feng Zhan originally thought that running the hall should be a very tiring job, but now it seems that the business of the inn is very tiring and difficult. It's a very pleasant thing to walk around with people like Chenhui in the inn, and once there are no things and missions to carry, Feng Zhan really feels the original...... The sky can be so wide.

He loved life now, and he loved life in the inn. Because I like it, I have some gains and losses.

originated from the words of Xiang Wu in the northern region of Frost River City, broken temple.

"What would you do if one day you faced an opponent who you couldn't defeat even if you fought to the death, knowing that he would endanger more people if he was alive, and knowing that you could kill this opponent if you only had to sacrifice some people?"

"In the future, if one day, you are pushed onto the road of the restoration of the Chu State by the people of the Demon Sect by those Chu people, maybe you will face such a choice, maybe that day, the person who will make you face the predicament will be me. If you lose some of the soldiers of the Chu State or the people of the Chu State, you can kill me, if you don't kill me, they can live for a while, but in the near future, your followers will face an even greater crisis, what will you choose? ”

The conversation with Xiang Wu was a knot in Feng Zhan's heart. Since then, Feng Zhan would think of these things every once in a while, the identity of the royal family of the Chu State did not bring him any benefits, and what was left for him was only the responsibility that he was destined to bear when he was born. and the endless hunt of the Empire. But after all, he is the royal family of the Chu State.

Feng Zhan doesn't understand politics, but even if he is a layman, he knows that the empire is extremely weak now, and although the empire does not need to worry about external troubles, it still has internal worries.

Xiang Wu's words were not groundless, as the number one person in the imperial military circle and one of the strongest people in the world, he naturally knew a lot of secrets that others did not know. Compared to the state of Chu.

Of course, the state of Chu has perished. But in the past few years, Xiang Wu and the Divine Soldier Absolute General Battalion could faintly feel that there was a force slowly expanding, waiting for a fatal opportunity like a dormant snake. That force must have something to do with the state of Chu. And that opportunity may be now.

After the empire lost nearly half of its troops and many famous generals, if there was really a certain force to revive the Chu State, Feng Zhan felt that that day was not far off.

At this moment, he shook his head, although this feeling has become stronger and stronger recently, Feng Zhan may not have the heart to get used to it, but he didn't mention it to anyone.

It's summer now, and it's already a little hot outside Lianqing Mountain, Feng Zhan is bare his upper body, and his even muscles are exposed. During Lianqing's period, Tang Suoye was in charge of cooking, Yimi was in charge of helping and finishing, and the task of finding ingredients fell to Feng Zhan. Because whether it is a cunning rabbit or a fox, whether it is a bird or a swimming fish, at the speed of the wind exhibition, they are like crops to be harvested.

Tang Suoye is a person who pursues beauty, her own beauty is secondary, but the beauty she can feel must not be taken lightly, so her puppets are mostly handsome men and beautiful women, and the cooking skills are not as good as Ding Qiliang, but for Feng Zhan and Yimi, it is an absolute delicacy in the world.

During the hunt, Feng Zhan glanced at the sky and saw a carrier pigeon. Although it does not have the freedom of the wind and the moon like Akas, with its amazing leg strength, the wind exhibition can also jump high in the sky. In fact, not long ago, he was thinking that it seemed that he hadn't seen the shopkeeper and the cook's group for a long time, and he would have to go and meet them in a few days. And it didn't take long for the shopkeeper's messenger pigeon to come. The letter was short, with only a few words:

The Demon Sect is in trouble, so come to the largest restaurant in Nansha City to meet - the shopkeeper.

Feng Zhan knew Chen Hui's speaking style, and he also knew that the Demon Sect was quite special to Chen Hui, so he didn't think too much about it and turned around and went to the grass house, ready to pack up and say goodbye. In fact, he is also a little idle, and his idle days are comfortable, but there is also a part of Fengzhan in his bones that he is eager for adventure.

The speed of the wind only made it clear in an instant that Feng Zhan passed through the woods outside Lianqing Mountain and came to Tang Suoye's hut.

Since the end of the Northern War, Feng Zhan has been training himself, learning a set of breathing techniques to train his internal strength, and at the same time tying heavier pieces of iron to his legs. He wanted to be faster.

What puzzled Feng Zhan was that the door of the house was wide open, and when he walked into the house, Feng Zhan was shocked, and Tang Suoye was knocked unconscious. The hut outside Lianqing Mountain was the secret stronghold of the inn, and Tang Suoye had not told anyone the location for so many years, except for entertaining the people in the inn and the people of the Demon Sect.

Feng Zhan woke up Tang Suoye: "Tang Suoye, where is Yimi?" ”

Tang Suoye shook his head in a daze, as if he didn't even know how he fainted: "I...... I don't know, why did I suddenly faint. ”

Feng Zhan was stunned. Is the other party a sneak attack?

But then Tang Suoye suddenly remembered something, and Tang Suoye suddenly screamed: "Ahhh Xiao Fengfeng, I remember, Yimi was kidnapped by someone, and he is a very good-looking person. ”

"What characteristics?" The focus of the wind exhibition will not fall on beauty or not like Tang Suoye.

Tang Suoye shook his head and said: "Looking at the uncle who has some vicissitudes of life, dressed in black, and then, I don't remember." I should have been knocked unconscious by him, and if Imi was gone, he should have taken me away. ”

Feng Zhan knew that he had always had a lot of enemies, but if he could find here, there should be no one. He was anxious.

But then the wind exhibition saw footprints. On the ground in the hut, there were traces of being trampled, and this person's foot strength should be very strong. Feng Zhan suddenly thought of Akasi.

Akasi did know that the Karasono Huts existed, but Akasi wouldn't attack a weak woman. These footprints are the traces. The wind looked out of the house.

Feng Zhan said: "Uncle Ben went to rescue Yimi, you hide in your puppet house, don't come out." ”

Tang Suoye said, "Won't you take me with you?" ”

Feng Zhan was puzzled: "Why did I take you with me?" ”

Tang Suoye said: "That person took Yimi, you must have to compete with your feet, hehehehe, then it's only fair that you also have to take me." ”

Feng Zhan's head is big, and the focus now doesn't seem to be fair or unfair, and caring is chaotic, Feng Zhan said angrily: "Go aside, don't make trouble for Uncle Ben!" ”

Tang Suoye whispered: "I don't think that person should be right about Yimi......"

Feng Zhan realized that there was something wrong with his emotions, and the other party was originally coming at him, and he didn't blame Tang Suoye, so he said, "Be careful, protect yourself." ”

After saying this, a gust of wind suddenly blew on the spot, and Feng Zhan's figure disappeared.

The fastest in this world is Akasi, but even Akasi can't be faster than Fengzhan with a person, and the footprints show the opponent's strong foot strength, but at the same time, it also shows the whereabouts of the other party.

Feng Zhan did not hesitate to unlock the two locks.

At this time, Feng Zhan was emitting white smoke all over his body, and his calves were emitting a faint crimson light. After the two prohibitions were lifted, no one in the world could be faster than Feng Zhan except for the moon advent of Akasi.

The wind was howling, and everything in the line of sight of the wind was rapidly receding. In just a few blinks of an eye, the wind exhibition has already traveled a few miles.

He concluded that there would be no one in the world who could outpace him even when his two prohibitions were opened, especially with Yimi. Feng Zhan quickly saw the man.

But the situation was different from what he thought. The person on the other side of the forest was as Tang Suoye said, dressed in black, holding Yimi in his arms. He glanced at Feng Zhan lightly, and his long hair was windless. He wasn't hiding from the wind, as if he was waiting for the wind.

In this eye, Feng Zhan inexplicably felt a sense of fear. This fear is related to his dreams these days. He didn't know the man in front of him, this man should be close to the age of destiny, but it seemed that there were only some vicissitudes of life, and he was not old.

Feng Zhan had never felt this way, even in the face of Xiang Wu, he had never had a trace of fear. But this man ...... Obviously there was no kind of coercion like Xiang Wu, but it made Feng Zhan feel instinctive fear.

After seeing Feng Zhan's appearance, the man in black put down Yimi, and his movements seemed very gentle.

"You...... Who is it? Feng Zhan said in a trembling voice.
