In the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, Juzhou, Yuelai Inn. Wu Xi and Zhao Guangbiao and a group of people lived here temporarily, and many seriously injured disciples needed to be well recuperated. Zhao Guangbiao went to a nearby pharmacy to buy medicinal herbs, and on the way back, he saw Wu Shun and a middle-aged man walking into a small alley. Seeing that the two of them looked back from time to time to look vigilant, he was shocked and secretly followed. Wu Shun and the middle-aged man walked all the way to a corner before stopping, and the place they chose was very good. Except for the two entrances, they were surrounded by walls, and they could spot those two entrances as soon as they were in a situation. So Zhao Guangbiao followed here, but he didn't dare to continue to get closer, and found a hidden place nearby to hide.

After a while, Wu Shun walked out, looked around and left. Zhao Guangbiao didn't come out, and it wasn't until a while later that the middle-aged man came out. Listening to his footsteps calmly, he should be a practitioner, so Zhao Guangbiao didn't act rashly, and didn't come out until he walked for a while. He thought about it for a while, pretending to be casual and went to the market to buy some osmanthus cakes before returning to the inn.

When he arrived at the inn, Zhao Guangbiao handed over the medicine to the other disciples and immediately found Zhao Dan. At this time, Zhao Dan was practicing knife skills, this was his habit, and he would think of practicing knives when he was free. He saw Zhao Guangbiao coming, so he stopped and wiped his sweat and asked, "Brother Zhao, is there something wrong?" Zhao Guangbiao replied: "Oh, I'm looking for Wu Shun, do you know where he went?" Zhao Dan was stunned for a moment, thought back and said: "I don't know, it seems that I went out after breakfast in the morning, do you have anything to do with him?" Zhao Guangbiao had been carefully observing his expression, but he didn't see any flaws. He believed that people's first reaction would not be fake, so he said for a moment: "It's nothing, he is very similar to my brother, so I feel very kind when I see him." As he spoke, he lifted the osmanthus cake on his hand before continuing: "I bought some snacks and wanted to give them to him." Since you don't know, I'll look somewhere else. Zhao Dan said in a loud voice: "Why don't you put it here, and I'll give it to you when he comes back." Zhao Guangbiao shook his head with a smile and said, "It's boring if you don't send it yourself." Zhao Dan also smiled, picked up the knife and continued to practice the knife technique.

Zhao Guangbiao then found Wu Xi again, who was sitting by the window and looking out of the window in a daze. Zhao Guangbiao walked to the position opposite him and sat down, put the osmanthus cake on the table and said, "Are you looking at the scenery?" Wu Xi came back to his senses and said, "Well, it's been a long time since I've calmed down like this to see the scenery. Zhao Guangbiao was stunned, and the words that came out of the mouth of a teenager about ten years old made him feel a little weird. After that, he said with a smile on his face: "I heard that the osmanthus cake here is very distinctive, so I specially bought some, you can try it." Wu Xi shook his head and refused: "Thank you, I don't like sweets." Zhao Guangbiao didn't care, and said: "Then do you know where Wu Shun went?" I guess he loves to eat. Wu Xi was also stunned and said, "I don't know, what are you looking for him?" Hearing him say this, Zhao Guangbiao frowned slightly. Between the two brothers, they were away again, and it was almost impossible for Wu Shun not to talk to him when he went out.

So he got up and said, "By the way, I suddenly remembered that I still have some business, so I left first." Wu Xi said: "Go slowly" Zhao Guangbiao nodded and turned to leave. Wu Xi looked at his back and squinted his eyes, he didn't expect this Zhao Guangbiao to feel so keen. Wu Shun had just been away for half a day, and he had already noticed the abnormality, but he didn't know what he had discovered.

Zhao Guangbiao went straight back to the rooms of the wounded and checked the condition of the wounded. Called the third junior disciple Fan Guangren and asked, "How is their situation, can they leave here?" Fan Guangren replied: "It's all been dealt with, but there should be no problem with the action." After speaking, he was stunned for a moment and asked, "Although this is the case, it is always inconvenient to leave now." Why is the senior brother so eager to leave? But Wu Xi, they can't wait? Why don't I beg them again? Zhao Guangbiao was silent for a moment and said, "No reason, I suddenly don't want to go to Wuzhou, let's change the route to the north and set off tonight." ”

Fan Guangren was full of questions, but he had always admired his senior brother and obeyed his words. So he didn't continue to ask why he was leaving, but asked, "Then do you want to talk to Wu Shaoxia and them?" Zhao Guangbiao shook his head and said, "No need, I've already greeted them." Fan Guangren answered yes and went to arrange to leave. Zhao Guangbiao walked to the bed of a wounded man and sat down, looked at his immature face, and sighed softly. Since his master's death, dozens of people in the entire Northern Sect can only rely on him, but this pressure is really too great for him. Originally, his second junior brother was also good, but he was killed by Hal in the last battle. And the third junior brother Fan Guangren is loyal and honest, but he is not a material who can take on great responsibilities. He can no longer be responsible for his own life alone, and the lives of the remaining dozen or so people in the Northern Sect are also pinned on him. So although he was only suspicious, he was still reluctant to take any more risks.

At night, Zhao Guangbiao packed his luggage. Sitting at the table and waiting quietly, the water in the teacup on the table was already cold. At this time, there were suddenly several knocks on the door, and he was startled and shouted, "Who is it?" "It's me," Wu Xi replied outside the door. Hearing this voice, Zhao Guangbiao immediately stood up as if he was furious, and asked in a slightly trembling voice: "It's Wu Shaoxia, what's the matter?" I don't know why, he has long felt that Wu Xi is not simple. Now at this critical moment, Wu Xi actually came to visit in the middle of the night, and he felt more and more uneasy in his heart, and he thought of many bad possibilities in his mind.

"There's something I want to talk to you about, can I come in?" Wu Xi's voice was very calm, and this calmness successfully infected Zhao Guangbiao, so he said, "Come in."

Wu Xi pushed the door and walked in, and he saw Zhao Guangbiao with his left hand on the table and his right hand hidden under the table. He noticed that Zhao Guangbiao's long sword was not hanging on the wall, but he didn't care, since he appeared here, he naturally had the confidence to face all threats. He slowly approached Zhao Guangbiao, calmly pulled out the stool and sat down facing Zhao Guangbiao. calmly flipped up a teacup and poured himself a cup of food, then picked it up and took a sip.

Zhao Guangbiao didn't get up to greet him, which was a bit rude, but he obviously didn't have the extra heart to pay attention to this. Because at this time, Wu Xi's calmness no longer brought him peace, but a signal that their situation was becoming more and more dangerous. He was a very cautious and suspicious person, and Wu Xi knew that. He understood that once Zhao Guangbiao had a sense of danger, it would be superfluous to make any cover-up, so he came.

The moment Wu Xi put the teacup on the table, Zhao Guangbiao suddenly burst out with his sword. Wu Xi looked up at the nervous Zhao Guangbiao, felt the coldness on his neck, and still asked very calmly, "Why is Brother Zhao like this?" ”
