After they left, the black gas that had been shrouded in the mountain all the year round slowly dissipated, and it became very beautiful. After walking in the mountains for a long time, they finally came to the bottom of the mountain, and the abandoned village they had been to had disappeared.

The horse monkey said: "Brother Feng, we were stupid to go to stay before, now it seems that all the things in this mountain are magic obstacles, all of them are obstacles, and now the barriers here are broken, and all of them are gone, although there is no place to sleep this time, but it is a lot fresher." ”

Then he stretched, and the people continued to walk forward, and when they crossed a mountain, they saw a small village at the foot of the mountain, and went in to stay overnight, and nothing happened, and then the next day they traveled several means of transportation, and they arrived at the city where the Zhou family's compound was located.

Before entering the city, Yuelin used smoke bombs to inform the people of the Zhou family, and Lao Zhou took the four masters who had been reorganized by the sixteenth out of the city to greet him. Zhou Yuefeng saw that Lao Zhou was coming, and his heart was at the bottom, and he hurriedly asked the four brothers to take care of the most seriously injured horses, monkeys and Ao Dameow. Several people hurriedly walked towards the Zhou family's compound.

Halfway Zhou Yuefeng saw that Lao Zhou seemed to have something to say, but he just wanted to say it a few times and held it back, Lao Zhou watched Zhou Yuefeng grow up, Zhou Yuefeng treated him like his own uncle, the two of them have never said anything, there has never been such a situation, the brothers slowly walked in front, Lao Zhou and Zhou Yuefeng fell behind the team, Zhou Yuefeng saw the opportunity and asked: "Old Uncle Zhou, do you have something to say to me, you are old and respectful, just say it directly, don't have to swallow and vomit." ”

Lao Zhou paused, and then as if he had made a lot of determination, he said: "Young Master Feng, in fact, I didn't want to say this, but if you let me say it, then I'll say it." I have always taken care of and arranged the business of the Zhou family's compound, and there has never been any mistakes, and the old man believed in me when he was alive. ”

Zhou Yuefeng nodded: "This is natural, Uncle Zhou, you are the founder of the Zhou family compound, when my father was there, I had to discuss with you, after I took charge of the Zhou family compound, I have been looking for family secrets everywhere, and you have always been taking care of the Zhou family compound, and the business is even better than when my father was here, I know all this, and you are a great contributor to our Zhou family compound." ”

Lao Zhou said: "But something seems to have happened recently, and I don't know what the problem is, but ......" Zhou Yuefeng heard that something had happened to the shop, so he asked: "Is it a business matter?" It doesn't matter, as long as you do your best, you are older, don't always put too much pressure on yourself, you can let the younger brothers do it, you can let them do it, you don't have to do it yourself. ”

After listening to Zhou Yuefeng's words, Lao Zhou hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Is this the case? That's because I'm too careful, I should let my younger brothers exercise more, I'm also old, I should abdicate. Zhou Yuefeng didn't hear the meaning, and continued to comfort him: "You are old, you have worked hard all your life for our Zhou family compound, and it is time for us to do our filial piety, you can retire with peace of mind, of course, the Zhou family compound still needs you to preside." ”

Lao Zhou smiled slightly and nodded: "Don't worry, Young Master Feng, the affairs of the Zhou family's compound are my business, and I will definitely do my best if I can do it." After speaking, the two of them continued to walk forward, but Zhou Yuefeng saw that Lao Zhou's appearance seemed to be a little wrong, but he didn't say it anymore, and Zhou Yuefeng didn't ask again, he thought that Lao Zhou was because of a mistake in business, so he didn't want to continue to ask, lest Lao Zhou would be more entangled.

Zhou Yuefeng changed to other topics and asked: "Old Uncle Zhou, during the time when Yuelin and I were away, you have always been to take care of the family and take Yuehai, how about Yuehai?" You're still obedient during this time, right? Have you learned anything in business? Lao Zhou was shocked when he heard Zhou Yuefeng ask about Yuehai, and then immediately relieved himself and replied: "Well, this kid is indeed a businessman, much better than me back then, and I am very relieved that he takes care of the business of the Zhou family's compound." ”

After speaking, he lowered his head, as if he had something on his mind, Zhou Yuefeng was only sullen because of business matters, so he didn't ask again, and then he exchanged a few words of greeting, and smelled the four shops and eight halls, as well as the reorganized sixteen things.

The two chatted for a while about the movements of the county magistrate, and came to the door of the Zhou family compound as they spoke, Yuehai had already been waiting at the door, as soon as he saw Lao Zhou in front of Zhou Yuefeng, his eyes were immediately a little wrong, and then he walked to Zhou Yuefeng's side, pushed Lao Zhou aside unconsciously, and then hugged Zhou Yuefeng's neck and said: "Big brother and second brother, you can be regarded as back, go, let's see how the family's business is taken care of by me!" ”

The tone of his voice sounded confident, and it seemed that Yuehai had really taken care of his family's business during this time. But Lao Zhou's strange behavior made Zhou Yuefeng wonder all the time. Everyone greeted each other, the injured brothers were also treated, and Lao Bai, the private doctor at home, examined all the injuries of everyone, and then prescribed medicine to them.

Zhou Yuefeng returned to his bedroom, and as soon as he returned to the room, he immediately came to the incense burner on the table, and said to the incense burner: "Pei Ling, I'm back, have you been better during this time?" This time it didn't go well, although I got something, but Cheng Jun and Lin Mu died, this time the losses were quite serious, and Ma Monkey and Ao Da Meow were also seriously injured, what about you? How's your cultivation? ”

But after waiting for a long time, there was no sound in the incense burner, Zhou Yuefeng hugged the incense burner and said: "You should still be very weak, I hope you can complete the broken spirit cultivation as soon as possible and enter reincarnation as soon as possible, so being outside the Three Realms is really not an expedient measure." With that, he put the incense burner on the table, and then took a shower and prepared for sleep.

As soon as he came out of the bathroom, he heard someone knocking on the door, and Zhou Yuefeng thought to himself, "Who will come so late?" Could it be Lao Zhou? He has always had something on his mind during the day, and it seems that something must have happened at this stage of the family, and it is quite serious. Thinking of this, he quickly found a garment to put on, and then went to the door to open it.

Unexpectedly, when I opened the door, I saw not Lao Zhou, but Yuehai, Zhou Yuefeng said: "Come in, your kid has been out of a lot recently, and he has grown into a handsome guy, let's talk about your kid and be energetic." What's wrong? Something to do with me so late? With that, Yuehai walked in.

As soon as he came in, he vigilantly closed the door and window, and then pulled Zhou Yuefeng and said, "Big brother, come here, I have something to tell you, the matter is important and must not be known to others, and I can't wait for tomorrow." Zhou Yuefeng saw that his appearance was indeed urgent, so he hurriedly said, "What's wrong?" Is it difficult for the mayor to embarrass our Zhou family again? Or are there other people in the way who are in trouble? ”

Yuehai said: "No, it's Lao Zhou!" Zhou Yuefeng said: "When I came back today, I felt that something was wrong with Lao Zhou, and he always seemed to have something to say, but he never spoke, was there something wrong with Lao Zhou's business?" Lao Zhou is the patriarch of our family, he is now this age, if there is any mistake, we have to get by, otherwise it will hurt the heart of the old man, and Lao Zhou has worked hard in our family all his life. ”

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Yuehai: "It's not brother, it's not like this, Lao Zhou ...... him" Speaking of this, he knelt down in front of Zhou Yuefeng and said: "Lao Zhou, he is a traitor sent by Zhang Xianzhang!" As soon as Zhou Yuefeng heard it, he said, "How do you know?" This can't be said nonsense, although we have internal moles, but it can't be Lao Zhou, Lao Zhou is the old man of our family, how could he do such a thing? Don't talk nonsense without hard evidence. ”

Yuehai said: "I have evidence, you can see if this is Lao Zhou's handwriting." As he spoke, he took out a small note, only to see that there were thirteen words written on it, which was very simple, but it was indeed a leak of secrets, and I saw that it was written: "The praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch is behind, and quickly send someone to answer it." ”

Zhou Yuefeng suddenly thought of what happened to them in Yu Yuan, originally he had planned to make dumplings with Sakuragi and the guide, but then Zhang Xianzhang actually sent a ninja. Judging from Sakuragi's performance when he was caught by him at that time, Sakuragi didn't know Zhang Xianzhang's move, could it be that the people in the family leaked the news?

He carefully identified the handwriting on the note, it was definitely Lao Zhou's right, but Zhou Yuefeng thought about it for a while, if this note was stopped by Yuehai, how did the information reach Japan? Zhou Yuefeng said: "Yuehai, where did you get this note?" When did you get it? ”

Yuehai said: "After you walked for three or four days, I saw that Lao Zhou was mysterious, so I followed him and watched him enter the back garden, I was afraid that he would find me, so I didn't follow too closely, but after I saw him go in, I hurried out of the back garden A person, I saw that I was still mysterious, that person I have never seen, he must be collaborating with the enemy." ”

Zhou Yuefeng asked: "Then did you stop that person and search for this note?" Yuehai thought for a while and said, "I didn't realize that he was a traitor at the time, and I also believed in Lao Zhou like you, and it was only afterwards that I felt that something was wrong." Zhou Yuefeng said: "Then where did you get this note?" ”

Yuehai said: "I followed Lao Zhou that day, and then watched him return to his room, this note I picked up outside the door of his room, I opened it and knew that this note was written by him to the enemy, so he began to slowly take over the rights of the Zhou family compound, and now he is just in vain in the Zhou family compound, and does not have any real power." ”

Zhou Yuefeng said: "I know, you go back first, I will definitely solve this matter before leaving." Yuehai said: "Brother, you rest early, I'll go back, and notify me in time if something happens." With that, he closed the door and left. Zhou Yuefeng always felt that this thing was very strange, he believed in Lao Zhou, and it was also strange that this note appeared at Lao Zhou's door, if he did it, he couldn't be so careless, just thirteen words, and he didn't need to back up the note or type a draft, it seems that if he wants to find out the truth, he wants to talk to Lao Zhou.
