Li Zhubei looked at Dugu Takihyun and said innocently, "It's not me, Takihyun, you believe me",

Dugu Takihyun didn't respond, looking at Zheng Yan's wound for a moment of silence as if to say something, Zheng Yan saw some cold and undetectable hesitation from her side face,

"You guys check the assassin first, you should be prepared, I'll clean it up, I'm really embarrassed to say anything serious about this injury",

jokingly said that Zheng Yan had already walked outside, Xingwei followed closely, Dugu Takihyun looked at the blood on his hand and seemed to change his breath, clenched his fist and put it in his sleeve, then looked at Li Zhubei, and asked calmly, "What can this dagger see?"

Li Zhubei's expression was a little complicated, and he said softly, "It's a divine weapon in the arsenal of Beifu Mountain, I saw it when I counted it before, it should be...".

Here Xingwei accompanied Zheng Yan back to the house, carefully helped him remove the clothes on his upper body, the wound was in the abdomen, it was a stabbing wound, and it was no longer bleeding under Zheng Yan's control, but there was a lot of blood before, Xingwei looked at it for a moment and stretched out a green onion finger to wipe a little bloodstain, and then just held it in his mouth,

Zheng Yan looked at this picture and was a little stunned, and then smiled bitterly, "Xingwei, if you want to eat it, I'll say, I'll see how much I can cut, don't eat it whole",

Xingwei glared at him angrily, "It seems to be poisonous, don't you feel it?"

Zheng Yan felt that he didn't notice anything unusual, and said with a smile, "I have been resistant to poison since I was a child, and the poison of you and Jingshu may not have much effect on me."

Xingwei went to the cabinet on the side and found a box, opened it and saw that there were a lot of medicine bottles inside, "Hmph, let me bite you one day and try it, weren't you stunned by me last night?

Seeing that Zheng Yan was a little unnatural, Xingwei smiled slightly, "What the hell is going on? Heroes saving beauty won't make people catch traitors in pairs."

Zheng Yan didn't have any temper for Xingwei's teasing, but said helplessly, "Dugu Takihyun seems to have some feelings, and then he fell into a state of silence, and then... It may be that her body's automatic reaction to the approaching danger released that puff of black smoke, and I happened to see a phantom about to attack her, so I rushed over, who knew that the black smoke was very powerful, and it was only a short distance in it and all of it was ineffective, so I fought in the dark, and then it was like this."

"It's just a fight? I see that there is more than one footprint on that Li Zhubei's body, and I know that there is no less fist beating when I look at the folds of his clothes."

Xingwei looked like he knew everything, and said with a smile while cleaning Zheng Yan's wounds, Zheng Yan had to smile reluctantly.

After that, Li Zhubei sent a few pairs of good gold sore medicine and two sets of clothes, said a lot of sorry and grateful words, and seemed to say that he and Dugu Takihyun were especially together, and finally briefly said the origin of the dagger, at this time, Zheng Yan also knew that the delicate relationship between Li Shubei and Yuanxian was already the kind of situation where only the last veil was torn, that is to say, this assassination of Dugu Takihyun was likely to be Yuanxian's arrangement.

Xingwei stayed in the house with him all morning, during which Jingshu came to see Zheng Yan, saying that Dugu Takihyun and Li Zhubei were busy arranging the guards of the entire Shengyang City, so they couldn't get out of their bodies and let Zheng Yan say what they needed, Zheng Yan smiled and asked Jingshu to help Dugu Takihyun do things, and also wanted to let Xingwei go to the underground palace below to read the book of heaven by the way, but Xingwei had no intention of going out at all after sending Jingshu away, sitting next to Zheng Yan who was lying down and chatting about some things about Yingyue Xinluo, about Luoyang, and also heard about the strange things about the magnates of the imperial court and temples, chatting and chatting and lying down, just like the beautiful and moving appearance last night, Zheng Yan had to talk as much as possible。

"Xingwei, what happened to your seven fireflies last night? they actually emitted white light, and they are much larger than I have ever seen."

"Well, the seven-star Gu that I sacrificed and cultivated, it is the kind of Gu worm that is specially planted in my man's body, so as to prevent it from being abandoned by others."

"Oh... , haven't you ever been out of the country?, how can you still have this kind of witchcraft of the witches of southern Xinjiang?",

"Don't you know? My master once traveled to southern Xinjiang with your grandfather, hey, are we not of the same generation?",

"Hello Aunt Xingwei",

......

Seeing that Xingwei was suddenly silent, his expression seemed to be a little emotional, Zheng Yan hurriedly admitted his mistake, "I was wrong, it seems that I remember that I shouldn't call the young woman aunt",

"No, I just suddenly remembered an old man."

After lunch, Zheng Yan proposed to go out for a walk, it was really embarrassing for the two of them to lie on the bed like this, and Zheng Yan was indeed very curious about this city, usually there was no such opportunity, Xingwei reluctantly agreed after confirming that Zheng Yan's injury was no longer a big problem.

In this way, the two of them went out of the small courtyard, first looked at the palace pavilion here, and when they first came out, they happened to meet Zi Che, after all, they were also guests and asked if there was any place that was inconvenient to open, and the two of them were good to avoid it, Zi Che only said that they should not go to the place where the female dependents lived, and the rest was casual, Zheng Yan tried not to let his expression show anything unusual, Zhang Caiyun and Bai Bo were in the cave not far away, and there was Lou Gang, I remember that Zi Che This guy does have a lot of wives and concubines left, and Li Zhubei heard that there are also women.

The palace house here should be regarded as the inner city of Shengyang City, and it must have been built as the residence of the owner and family of Shengyang City, so there is a magnificent atmosphere in addition to exquisiteness, not to mention the palace made of boulders more than ten zhang high, as well as all kinds of whimsical or huge or exquisite reliefs, beams and railings, arch bridges, galleries, etc., just say that those windows are very shocking, many people may not pay attention, in a long period of architectural aesthetics, look at the quality of one or several heavy buildings is to look at the windows, a window can often reflect the aesthetic heritage and status of a family。

For example, there is an attic with stone as the main wood supplement, and although the paulownia paint has been mottled for several windows on the second floor, it can also be seen that the wood is made of thousand-year-old red pears, and it has passed through a "vacuum" The red pear handled, this is actually nothing for the big cultivation family, but the style of the window is really rare in the world, the middle one is a peacock open screen, and the two sides are golden roosters to report the dawn, mainly carving and subsequent processing technology, I remember that a few years ago a big salt merchant built a house in Luoyang, just made a window like this and attracted the family magnates to visit one after another, I heard that such a window with a length and width of four feet cost nearly 3,000 gold, how many are here? Zheng Yan didn't dare to count, afraid that he couldn't control himself to tear down a door and carry it home.

Just when Zheng Yan introduced some interesting facts and allusions to Xingwei's architectural layout, he suddenly noticed that there was a woman who seemed to have seen it somewhere by the window of an attic, and then saw that the woman had turned away from the window, leaving only a slender silhouette, and Xingwei next to him chuckled, "It seems that I really like women who are ripe, I said how to sit still with Dugu Takihyun and Jingshu without messing up",

Zheng Yan was a little helpless, and he was very familiar with it? It's just that this one word finally remembered who the woman who turned around and left? Yu Qiu's little concubine, I remember hearing Dugu Longhyun say that it seems to be called Zhong Yao, the daughter of Zhong Shu, the defender of the right pivot city, Yu Qiu forcibly captured the woman who went out on an outing to Shengyang Mountain more than ten years ago, and then became a family, yes, Yu Qiu was killed by Yuanxian, his two wives were also captured, and his son, the somewhat obedient young man named Jingyang, I don't know where he is now.

Just thinking about it, suddenly a shout came from the side and asked, "Bold, my wife is also something you can see?!",

A guy who looked like a mandrill was glaring angrily at Zheng Yan, and when he saw Xingwei behind Zheng Yan, he fell into a stupor for a moment, Zheng Yan pinched Xingwei's arm and signaled her not to do anything, but Xingwei looked innocent,

"Ahem, this big brother, we are the guests invited by your king this time, and Lord Purple Chee also said that you can walk around casually, as long as you don't go in casually",

Seeing that the guy in front of him finally came out of his obsessive look, his expression eased a lot, so Zheng Yan asked curiously, "Whose wife is the eldest brother talking about?"

"Of course it's our lady of the purple claw, let's go, this is not the place for you to come",

"Oh, I thought it was the lady who gave revenge, forgive the little brother's clumsy eyes, hey, by the way, do you have the whereabouts of those two ladies who give revenge? I heard that they are all beauties that are hard to find in the world."

The little demon despised Zheng Yan's ignorance very much, "Tell you that you remember, Yu Qiu has already died, his eldest lady is now the pillow person of our demon king, and the second lady is the one you just saw, hurry up, don't let me say it a second time",

Zheng Yan looked at this little demon and seemed a little proud, still chewing on the word "pillow man" in a mouth full of sharp and broken teeth, probably because he didn't expect that he could say what only adults can usually say.

Leaving the inner city, Zheng Yan was still a little embarrassed, Xingwei chuckled and said, "Do you want to find a chance to grab it out again?"

Zheng Yan said helplessly, "Let's not talk about whether people are willing or not, I am not so kind, the previous time was purely accidental, and I still regret it a little",

Zheng Yan naturally knew that Xingwei was not a good man and a woman, let alone the kind of woman who always put morality and virtue in her heart, so it didn't matter if she said this, at least she wouldn't be disgusted.

"Don't worry about it, it's normal to occupy and rob like this in the demon world, since those two women are standing there, it proves that they have no will to resist, and it's really not your turn to worry",

Xingwei comforted Zheng Yan, but he was a little unimpressed when he heard it,

Zheng Yan nodded and said, "In fact, many times in the world, it is the same in some places where laws and morals do not shine, even if there are laws and morals, the sun does not necessarily shine, don't they all say that there will be shadows if there is light?"

Xingwei took the words and said with a smile, "So we should yearn for the light, and everyone should shine brightly, so that the darkness will retreat and the shadows will no longer be terrifying",

Zheng Yan also laughed.

Li Zhubei said that this city was originally inhabited by ancient immortals, and then after several repairs, increases and decreases, it has today's scale and all kinds of scattered houses and palaces, Zheng Yan also saw a lot of traces of different dynasties in the outer city, the earliest can even be traced back to the Hao Dynasty 10,000 years ago, it is a stone platform that sacrifices to the sky, there are star carvings on the stone platform, and there are many lines that have been blurred, Xingwei also looked at Zheng Yan a few times when he was interested, and said with a smile that it was a place of live sacrifice.

I remember that the Yin Dynasty basically abolished this sacrificial method, oh, this is the remains of the Hao Dynasty, and there is a Xia Dynasty that lasts for more than 3,000 years in the middle, which is easy to understand, but the sacrifice to the sky also needs to be sacrificed by living people?

"This is Shengyang Mountain, at that time, people generally believed that after death, the soul returned to heaven and earth, and the living sacrifice held in this Shengyang Mountain can not only send the soul to the heavens smoothly, but also send the soul together, and you don't think that the living sacrifice is used for slaves and untouchables, and the living sacrifice here is used for princes and nobles or holy people, well, there are more girls who have not left the pavilion",

Xingwei explained casually, looking very determined, Zheng Yan couldn't help but ask curiously, "Xingwei, where did you know this? I thought that the deeds of the Hao Dynasty and Zaiqian were all conjectured by people based on the legends of the stars and a half, and it seems that it is really true to hear you say this, could it be that the demon clan also has a complete historical inheritance?"

"Do you know how writing evolved?",

Xingwei didn't answer directly, but also threw out a question,

Zheng Yan thought for a while and said, "It happened that this problem was perfected again in the underground palace under the dragon gate not long ago, the earliest writing should have been produced 10,000 years ago, in fact, it could not be said to be writing at that time, just some symbols, and then at the end of the Hao Dynasty, the ancestor of the Cang clan created the original writing, and then after several changes, there is the text that we are using now, right?"

Xingwei nodded, " That's basically it, but the text before the Xia Dynasty can't be said to be just a simple symbol, but now people lack the method of interpretation, well, don't look at me like that, I don't know, the interpretation method at that time was only in the hands of a small number of people, that is, the great wizard among the wizards, and even the gods and witches, as you see now, and the witch clan have been lost, in fact, the four volumes of the book of heaven under the underground palace here may be something left over from that period, maybe even earlier, so for us that is the book of heaven, it is normal to not understand, because we don't know the method of interpretation, as for the talisman on this altar, these runes are actually still in use nowIt's just a small niche, and I've only heard some of them from the master."

Zheng Yan thought that if he got one or two wizards in the Longmen Underground Palace, he would definitely be able to unlock the secret of the Book of Heaven, and when he was thinking about it, there were suddenly a few roars of beasts next to him, and the sound seemed to have a great impact on the soul, Zheng Yan was startled, and then looked over, only to see two brown tengu the size of a wolf grinning at himself, this kind of guy had seen it when he saved the soul of Dugu Takihyun Ghost Spirit before, and he also killed a person who had been transformed, probably the ancestor of these two guys, I remember that Yu Qiu cultivated a lot, but I didn't expect that they were all inherited by the new master here, could it be that I have the smell of killing their kindSome beasts do have this sense.

The two tengu looked vicious, but they kept standing a foot away and barking wildly, but they didn't dare to take a step forward, and they didn't know whether they were afraid of Zheng Yan or Xingwei, at this time, two spirits who had not yet fully transformed came from a distance, holding thick iron chains to lassose the two tengus, but they couldn't pull them even if they used their strength to feed, these two guys just barked at Zheng Yan.

Zheng Yan took a step forward, the two guys immediately whimpered and took two steps back, seeing that Zheng Yan no longer came up, they immediately barked again, and the two spirits took the iron chain and pumped it was useless, just when both sides were a little embarrassed, suddenly a warm voice came from the bushes next to them, male voice, listening to a strange feeling, very comfortable, comfortable is a little unreasonable,

"Don't be afraid, the guests won't hurt you",

It's just such a simple single sentence, the two tengus who were barking more than once quieted down, and turned to wagging their tails at the bushes and begging for mercy, only then did they have the appearance of some dogs, and they were simply demon dogs before, no, they were demon wolves.

As the words fell, a man in Tsing Yi walked out from behind the bushes, handsome and slender, just like most beautiful men Zheng Yan had ever seen, but this person in front of him had a special bearing, special? Zheng Yan couldn't help but be a little puzzled.

Zheng Yan didn't notice that Xingwei next to him was a little strange at the first glance when he saw the man, and his eyes gradually gathered a moving look, whether it was charming, infatuation and yearning, and his body seemed to want to step forward.

The young man who suddenly appeared smiled at the two of them, first walked to the two tengu and stretched out his white jade hand and touched the heads of the two guys, and then instructed the two spirits to take them away, and the two spirits were also very respectful and grateful.

"In Xia Qing Zhai, I don't know the names of the two honorable surnames?".
