The autumn night is slow, for the several major families in Linyue City, it is torment, longing for the dawn to come in the contradictions, welcoming the dawn, and fearing that the night will end, and the end means that the war is about to break out, the dawn is hard to find, and life and death are unpredictable.

Qingyaoxuan in the early morning is particularly eye-catching on Qinglong Street, today's small vendors are also smart, there is not a stall, even the shops on both sides are also closed, as if they know that there is going to be a war today, they are all quiet, as much as possible to reduce their existence, except for Qingyaoxuan.

Today's Cheng Wenxuan got up very early, the sun has not yet risen, and the morning star has not disappeared, he has already opened the door of Qingyaoxuan, the two heavy wooden doors creaked, and slowly seemed to not want to open so early, but they were pulled away by the stubborn Cheng Wenxuan, and the pale helplessness made them very helpless.

In the past half a month, Cheng Wenxuan's mother's illness has been getting better and better, and it is a little unreal, and the two mothers and sons are still shocked by Mo Lao's medical skills.

Because the two of them have really experienced too much, from the solid family business at the beginning to the shyness in the pockets now, and in the end they are begging for a living, I don't know how much money they have spent, how much they have paid, and there is no turnaround.

As a result, as soon as I arrived at Qingyaoxuan, in just a few days, the whole person changed dramatically, he was no longer so thin, and his face was almost the same color as a normal person.

The reason why Cheng Wenxuan got up earlier than usual this morning was because his mother's appetite had soared yesterday and she had been talking about the water and grass buns in her hometown.

He traveled all over Linyue City yesterday, and finally his hard work paid off, and he found a stall that made water and grass steamed buns, but because the business was too good, it was sold out before dawn.

He is a well-known dutiful son, and he has not given up when he is sick like that, so how can he retreat from this little wish?

In fact, he is not stupid and only cares about his old mother, when he was walking around the street yesterday, he probably heard some rumors, in short, it is not a good thing, but he doesn't think so, and there is an inexplicable sense of security.

Maybe what happened to Ouyang City Lord that day gave him confidence, and with the Guardian Light guarding Qingyaoxuan, he had nothing to fear.

Thinking of this, Cheng Wenxuan stretched his arms, full of strength, and happily ran towards the place where the water and grass buns were sold.

Along the way, he also found that something was abnormal, because in normal times, the street had long been shouting, but today it was quiet, and there was no one on the street, except for himself, of course.

"It's not really going to be a fight!"

Cheng Wenxuan muttered to himself, slowed down, he had already arrived at the place, but today, the vendor who used to sell water and grass buns here was not there at all, and this discovery made him a little disappointed.

But when I thought about it in a blink of an eye, I was relieved, these small vendors were all better than monkeys, and at the slightest disturbance, they immediately shrank at home, and their eyes and speed were more alert than those of them who cultivated.

Cheng Wenxuan had to turn his head and leave, and he didn't stand here and wait, looking at the situation, he couldn't eat water and grass buns today, so he could only wait for tomorrow.

Cheng Wenxuan quickly turned back, his speed was even faster than when he came, as if a meteor crossed the sky, and disappeared in the vendor spot in an instant.

Seeing that he was about to arrive at Qingyaoxuan, Cheng Wenxuan's tense mind just now relaxed a lot, and he didn't know what he was nervous about just now, maybe it was the environmental factors in it, today's Qinglong Street, not as usual, not stunned!

Cheng Wenxuan had already walked up the steps, and after a few more steps, he was about to enter.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew behind him, and he didn't pay attention to it, and fell off the steps, breaking his head and bleeding miserably.

"Why is the little brother so careless!"

An old voice sounded in Cheng Wenxuan's ears, and he couldn't tell whether he was concerned or mocking on the side.

He rolled on the ground with a carp, flipped it up, and when he saw it, an old man in his sixties, wide and fat, with thief eyebrows and rat eyes, was staring at him.

That look made him dare not look at each other, it was not a feeling, as if he was skinned alive by the old man, and stood in front of him bloodily, and the feeling made his blood coagulate.

"You...... Who are you? ...... It's you...... Push me?"

Cheng Wenxuan quickly turned his head, glanced at the door of Qingyaoxuan, and asked with courage.

"The old man came in a hurry just now, I didn't see the little brother, maybe the speed was too fast, and the wind affected the little brother, the little brother is fine!"

Cheng Wenxuan didn't expect the old man to admit it directly, and the smile that squeezed his eyebrows made him unconsciously take a few steps back in the direction of Qingyaoxuan, and this time he went up several steps directly.

"You...... What's the matter with you?"

Cheng Wenxuan saw that the old man was following him closely, and he also took a few steps forward, and hurriedly asked nervously.

"Little brother, don't be afraid, the old man won't hurt you, I didn't control it just now, the old man wants to ask, are you from this Qingyaoxuan?"

The old man raised his hand and beckoned, stepped up the steps, and took a few steps forward, only one step away from Cheng Wenxuan, only to see the old man stretch out his right hand and put it on Cheng Wenxuan's shoulder, and there was no movement.

Cheng Wenxuan only felt a warm air current, which began to flow from the position of the shoulder to the whole body, and the air flow seemed to be conscious, when it passed through the key parts of Cheng Wenxuan, he actually knew how to avoid it, and after turning around his whole body, he disappeared from the position of the shoulder again.

Cheng Wenxuan only felt happy, all the comfort he had never had, and the previous depression caused by the fall had long been swept away.

Now he feels full of energy and can kill an adult fire bull at any moment.

"Well, I'm a buddy from Qingyaoxuan!"

As soon as Cheng Wenxuan's smart brain moved, he knew that the changes in his body were carried out by the old man in front of him, and when he saw that he didn't have any bad intentions, he happily replied, originally he was the guy hired by Mo Lao, which was not bad.

"Then is the shopkeeper of your Qingyao Xuan?"

The old man didn't say a word, he shot directly, combed his body for Cheng Wenxuan, and indirectly apologized, and at the same time tested Cheng Wenxuan, seeing that Cheng Wenxuan's cultivation was indeed as he saw, he completely let go of the guard in his heart.

"No, I'm out of the house. ”

Cheng Wenxuan actively cooperated, he was a person with clear grievances, and he had received the favor of the old man just now, if he concealed it again, it would not be his personality.

It's also Mo Lao, if he really told Cheng Wenxuan where he and Qing Ling'er went, I'm afraid that at this time, Cheng Wenxuan would have been revealed cleanly.

"Oh, when will she be back?"

The old man returned to his original appearance, his bloated body and the obscenity that his smiling eyes couldn't see, Cheng Wenxuan suddenly had an ominous premonition:

This can't be the king of the Huo family that is spread in the city!

"I don't know, how can a young man of mine know the shopkeeper's movements. ”

Cheng Wenxuan was secretly shocked, how mentally retarded he was!

is still talking and laughing with people in front of the door, if this is a careless person who is screwed off his head, then he has no place to cry.

At this point, Cheng Wenxuan really guessed wrong, if he was really the king of the Huo family, he would not talk to him so kindly, although the old man in front of him made his legs tremble unconsciously, but there was no actual injury action, and the only contact was to help him dredge the meridians.

Besides, it is the consistent style of the Huo family to directly arrest and seize, so they will not waste time on a little guy like him.

"That's right!"

The old man listened to Cheng Wenxuan's reply, and sighed secretly, I don't know if he was saying it to himself or to Cheng Wenxuan, in short, Cheng Wenxuan felt that the words were not finished yet, and the old man floated away directly, just like when he came, so that Cheng Wenxuan couldn't figure out the routine and couldn't see the way out.

Xiangyun Inn on Zhuque Street, the VIP room on the second floor, is antique.

An old man knelt on the ground, and a young man sat on it, and on the table next to him was a chessboard, on which the black and white were distinct, falling in different positions, as if in a war, the two sides were desperately fighting.

The man was dressed in a pale yellow brocade robe, with a white jade ring in his hair, his back to the old man kneeling on the ground, holding a black chess piece in one white lacquered hand, staring intently at the chess game on the table in front of him.

A person playing chess there can only solve those ancient endgames, the man frowned, as if he was thinking, a little indecisive, but it gave people a feeling of superiority.

"Master, the master and servant of the young girl in the Qingyaoxuan are not here, and there is only a sick old woman and a guy in the Qingyaoxuan. ”

It turned out that the old man was the old man who had just spoken to Cheng Wenxuan at the door of Qingyaoxuan, and the old man at this time was no longer the arrogant that Cheng Wenxuan saw, but only promised, as if he was afraid of saying the wrong thing, or making a superfluous move, and he would die at any time.

"Well, you go down!"

The man at the top did not turn around, but just said a few words lightly, and then fell silent again, as if there was no one in the whole room, and it was surprisingly quiet.

"What is my ninth brother doing?"

The whole room was quiet for about a quarter of an hour, and suddenly, the man sitting at the top raised his head and said a word to the air opposite, and that look of determination was by no means self-talking.

"As soon as the Nine Emperor Princes came, they went to the Supreme Auction House, but they didn't buy anything, they went crazy for a while, and they stayed directly at the Fengyun Inn on Qinglong Street. ”

At the moment when the man's voice stopped, a hoarse voice came from the opposite direction, word by word, answering the question just now.

It's really strange here every year, especially this year, and it's normal to speak, but it's strange that you can only hear the voice, but you can't see the person who speaks.

There wasn't even a single fly in the whole room, except for the man playing chess, and I didn't know where the person who spoke was hiding?

"Keep an eye on it!"

After the man finished speaking, he lowered his head and began to study the endgame on the table again.

"Yes!"

The man hiding in the shadows in the air answered, and then he stopped speaking, as if he had left, and the whole room returned to its previous silence.
