Nineteen. Flower field

About half a mile away from Guihong Villa, there is an annex, the courtyard is built very secret, backed by a mountain cliff, surrounded by a dense forest, it is difficult for others to find.

Li Shuanglan now lives here, making drugs that confuse people's minds for Qi Li.

How can there be any incomparably effective Red Lotus Lady, and many emotional believers in the temple are just poisoned because they inhaled the incense in the temple.

The incense is filled with the essence of the mandala flower, supplemented by other medicines, and the smell of it can make people confused, immersed in their own joy and sorrow and unable to break free, and after a long time will be very dependent, if you leave this incense, you will be tired and exhausted,

On that day, when Qi Li took Li Shuanglan back from the Red Lotus Niangzi Temple, he talked about it, Qi Li has been hiding the people for many years, waiting for the opportunity to recover the rivers and mountains of the Great Zhou, and the key part of the plot is to grasp the loyalty of the thousands of people in his hands and lay the foundation for him to start in the future.

If you can firmly grasp the people of the world, why worry about the instability of the country?

"There are too few shrewd people in this world, but there are too many fools, and it is very easy to win the hearts of all people, whether it is a good person or a good deed, or a special means to deceive and deceive."

Qi Li opened his bamboo fan, his expression seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and his eyes were full of mockery.

"Because they are really not smart enough, they can win their favor with only a little thought, and they are still dead."

Qi Li shook the bamboo fan, and there were three points of regret in his words.

"If it weren't for the necessity, how could I be willing to calculate these foolish people, and the hard work is really not worth it."

After that, he took the bamboo fan and sighed. "But the matter has come to this point, it is useless to say more, this Red Lotus Sect is getting stronger and stronger, and now I have to bother my sister to work hard to make more exquisite spices for my brother's cooking, how about it?"

Li Shuanglan still smiled gently and obediently, but she just hid in her sleeve and clenched her hands, twisted the Buddha beads she used to calm her mind quickly, and replied respectfully:

"Since my brother has spoken, how can I not do my best?"

So she asked Qi Li for this Zhuangzi, to avoid people's eyes and ears, and built a huge medicine house in the courtyard, hiding in the room every day, studying how to make medicine.

In the days that followed, the courtyard was filled with flames and fragrant fragrance, but fortunately, the trees outside the courtyard were lush and there were large flower fields to cover up, so it was not discovered.

And Li Shuanglan is also a skillful hand, but half a month has developed a more refined incense, this incense can hardly smell anything other than sandalwood, it will not make people suspicious, and it can also make people flutter and feel a hundred times more energetic.

"My sister is really smart!"

Qi Li looked very happy, and took Li Shuanglan to a hollow valley ten miles away from Guihong Villa, this hollow valley was even more secret, Li Shuanglan followed Qi Li to turn a few corners in a group of mountains, and finally arrived at this unique place.

This is a large mandala flower field, endless, the fragrance of flowers overflowing, according to Qi Li said that this flower field has a hundred acres of size, it was originally used for the red lotus to teach incense to protect the left and right, now Li Shuanglan's craftsmanship is more exquisite, this hundred acres of mandala flower field naturally belongs to Li Shuanglan.

Li Shuanglan walked in this sea of mandala flowers, picked one casually and put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it, the flowers were extremely fragrant, but he didn't know how many killing intentions were hidden in this delicate flower, how many people's minds would be lost in this hundred acres of flower fields, and how many people would be killed.

At this time, the mountain breeze is blowing, cool and blowing, and the fragrance of mandala flowers in the wind is stronger, but Li Shuanglan seems to smell some special smells in this mountain breeze.

It seems to be the breath of cold iron, or the smoke and fire of steelmaking and smelting, in short, it is not like the natural fragrance that should be in this group of mountain emeralds, Li Shuanglan was suspicious, but he couldn't press it, and wanted to quietly investigate again.

Li Shuanglan has been trying to find a way to find out the whereabouts of Gao Si Yang in the past few days - Gao Si Yang disappeared in the palace rebellion, and it is very likely that he escaped from the palace with Qi Li, who was still young at the time, raised Qi Li, and supported him to return to the country. But Li Shuanglan has been by Qi Li's side for a long time, and there is no trace of Gao Siyang, which makes Li Shuanglan a little impatient.

And she also wanted to track down one thing, that is, when Emperor Xiao Che gave her and Li Shuangxuan to death, who revealed their true identities to Xiao Che? caused her and her sister Li Shuangxuan to almost die?

Is it Qi Li, or Gauss Yang, who has not yet appeared?

But it doesn't matter who it is, Li Shuanglan raised the mandala flower in his hand to his eyes, carefully observed the veins on the petals, looked at it for a while, and then threw the murderous flower to the ground.

Qi Li and Gao Siyang, she will not let go of any of them.

When the night moon was dark and the wind was high, Li Shuanglan, accompanied by Ling Feng, came to this mandala flower field again by night, when she saw this sea of flowers during the day, she felt a little abnormal, and it seemed that there were more than just mandala flowers hidden in this empty valley.

She had always had a keen sense of smell, and when she returned, she was so relieved that she decided to come back and see.

Now she and Ling Feng are standing in this sea of flowers again, the mandala flowers are becoming more and more bewitching in the night, white flowers are like frost, and red flowers are like blood.

Li Shuanglan looked left and right for a while, but didn't find anything strange, which made her a little disappointed, the night breeze was slightly cool, the flowers were swaying, Li Shuanglan sighed softly, and sniffed carefully, hoping to smell something.

Deep in the middle of the night, there was silence, only the mountain breeze passed by, and after a while, Ling Feng suddenly pinched her hand, put his index finger to his mouth, and "shhh

“……”

I didn't speak, Li Shuanglan muttered in her heart.

Ling Feng followed the sound of the wind carefully for a long time, and suddenly as if he heard something, he hugged Li Shuanglan and flew towards the depths of the flower field with light skills on both feet.

“……”

Don't take me to fly without saying a word! Li Shuanglan helplessly hugged Ling Feng tightly, and muttered in his heart, and then listened to the whirring wind in his ears, and saw the scenery in front of him upside down, about a while, after Ling Feng flickered and moved, the two of them landed on a mountain cliff.

After Li Shuanglan and Ling Feng stabilized, they crouched on the boulder and quietly looked into the valley.

It was midnight, but the valley was brightly lit, and hundreds of men dressed as soldiers hid here, all armed with weapons in their hands, in regular formations, some training, waving their weapons with a loud sound, others patrolling around with torches. There are also countless stoves with strong fires, and some people are banging on the stoves, tinkling.

Ling Feng took Li Shuanglan and flew up the higher cliff, seeing that the flames stretched for miles, and I don't know how many soldiers there were. I didn't expect that there were such a large number of people hidden in these mountains, but looking at their clothes, it didn't look like the clothing of the imperial army, and there was no such dress among the defenders in various places, but it was a bit like the standard of the previous dynasty.

When Xiao Luo was looking for the origin of bows and arrows for their sisters, she brought back a copy of the Great Zhou Dynasty's armament system, and she flipped through it a little and was slightly impressed.

"If it's really the standard ...... of the previous dynasty"

Li Shuanglan's eyes lit up, and a little joy rose in her heart, she squeezed Ling Feng's hand, it was really thanks to Ling Feng tonight that she discovered what she had always wanted to investigate.

These people, I am afraid that they are the rebels under Qi Li, hiding in the deep mountains, training day and night, waiting for an opportunity to move.

In the distance, a wide courtyard could be faintly seen, but the courtyard was far away from them, and they could not tell if there were people living in the courtyard and who lived there.

Ling Feng carried Li Shuanglan on his back, intending to fly to a nearby place with Li Shuanglan on his back to investigate.

"Just hug me, don't look down, don't make a sound, I'll take you to see the yard."

"Good!"

So Ling Feng carried Li Shuanglan on his back, like a silent bird in the dark night, gently stepped on the various steps, held his breath all the way, and finally landed firmly on the roof of the courtyard.

They held their breath and gently lifted a brick from the roof.

In the main hall of the room, beside a square wooden table, there were two people sitting opposite each other, both with solemn expressions, and the atmosphere was not harmonious, and one of them was Qi Li, and the other was lean, a little older, with a goatee on his chin.

"Uncle still won't tell me, how many men and horses do we have?"

After a long time, Qi Li finally spoke, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he called his uncle, Li Shuanglan hid on the roof and laughed silently.

It really didn't take any effort to get it, this Gauss Yang was hiding here!

"Li'er has worked hard lately, I heard that this Red Lotus Sect is quite powerful, you have done a good job."

Gauss Yang did not answer, but changed the topic, picked up the tea on the table and took a sip, his attitude was slightly arrogant, and he looked like a character who was not easy to get along with.

"Uncle why bother with anything else, I know that my uncle has worked very hard over the years, I always want to share my uncle's worries, and when we have trouble in the future, I also need to know how sure we are!"

Qi Li's tone was not good, and he seemed to be very impatient.

Li Shuanglan listened carefully to the conversation between the two people, and after a little analysis, he noticed that there seemed to be some dislike between them.

And it doesn't look like a big gap.

And Gaussjan in the room continued: "What are you doing in such a hurry? Take care of your own affairs first, and then come to your uncle to ask for help! ”

"I killed the imperial doctor and his wife, and then sent someone to blow some wind for Xiao Che, so that that stupid girl has no one to rely on you, and now I hear that this girl is doing things for you wholeheartedly, and you still don't thank your uncle and me?"

Ling Feng on the roof was startled when he heard this, for fear that Li Shuanglan would make some noise when he was emotional, so he covered Li Shuanglan's mouth in a hurry.

"......" Li Shuanglan rolled her eyes at the sky, these had long been expected by her, and now she just heard Gao Siyang say it himself.

"What can that girl do? It's just to make some medicine, if she comes to the battlefield in the future, she can neither carry a knife nor kill the enemy? Besides, this girl has not been approved by my father, who knows if she is my Qi family bloodline! ”

Li Shuanglan snorted coldly in her heart, she was not interested in the emperor of the Great Zhou, even if according to Liu Xiangxi, the emperor of the Great Zhou was her biological father, but she always had a deep affection for Liu Shuang, although she had never seen Liu Shuang, nor had she called her a mother, and in the end, she only met her with a handful of loess.

Qi Li's words were secretly insulting Liu Shuang.

"You're still young, and you're always too anxious."

Gauss Yang laughed, stroked his goatee, narrowed his eyes and smiled:

"This is not the kind of character that can achieve great things, you need to be patient, just do your own thing, you don't have to worry about your uncle's business."

"Uncle!"

Qi Li seemed to be a little angry, and he stood up and wanted to say something, but after all, he suppressed his anger, saluted Gauss Yang, and said goodbye.

After Qi Li left, he heard Gauss Yang smile, flicked his sleeves impatiently, and turned to leave.

"Humph! Yellow-mouthed children! ”

When the sky was bright, Li Shuanglan and Ling Feng came to the flower field again, Li Shuanglan held a torch, and set fire to the 100 acres of harmful mandala flower field, the weather was dry, the sun was strong, the fire was vigorous, and the fire spread after a while, gradually eroding the flower field that was in full bloom.

When Qi Li heard the news, he was very anxious and heartbroken, and asked Li Shuanglan why he burned the mandala flowers he used for medicine.

"Brother, you are really lonely, the medicine I made for half a month didn't use your mandala at all."

Li Shuanglan turned to look at the burning sea of mandal flowers and said:

"Another herb I use, called Hibiscus, is a hundred times more wonderful than a mandala, what? Don't you believe it? As he spoke, he handed a bright red hibiscus to Qi Li.

"This ......"

Qi Li looked at the bright red and dazzling A Furong, and was suspicious, and was speechless for a while.

Although Li Shuanglan was observing Qi Li's reaction, he also noticed that Sheng Jiuchao, who had accompanied Qi Li, seemed to be trembling all over his body in the face of the burned mandala flower field.

What she didn't see was that Sheng Jiuchao, who was facing away from her at this time, clenched his fists, his eyes were full of murderous intent.
