――――
Zhang Nan was placed under house arrest for three days because of the investigation of the poisoning of candidates. During these three days, Zhang Nan did not worry about Chu Zifeng leaving at all. If Chu Zifeng was really the person he remembered, he would definitely not leave the capital so simply, and he would also take the initiative to complete other aspects of the layout for Zhang Nan.
Chu Zifeng really didn't leave the capital in the past three days, and he was very active. All the manpower he could mobilize was released to investigate who poisoned him.
At first, Chu Zifeng suspected that he was poisoned in the martial arts courtyard, but later he also slowly suspected that he was on the road outside. Although the poison was not found out, the dose was not large, and it seemed that it had no intention of killing him. has just been given a national surname, and directly participated in the assessment of the inner court, plus the Marquis of Heyang is hereditary, there are always some pink eye.
For three days in a row, Chu Zifeng checked all the places he went to after coming to the capital, especially the places with food and drink entrances. Even the Liang Wangfu listened around the corner, and Xu Zhengming, a subordinate official of the palace, jumped to his feet angrily, and he was not by his side, leaving him to toss.
On this day, Chu Zifeng sat in the lobby of the inn, one person at a table, and poured himself a drink.
The scale of this inn is not small, but he was chartered by himself.
"Childe. An old servant walked into the lobby with a look of embarrassment.
"Finished checking?" Chu Zifeng asked.
"It's not ...... yet" The old servant hesitated, but still said: "Son, Gonggong Li is the person in front of His Majesty, and he is an old friend with Hou Ye." I went to visit that day to receive a good fate, and even he checked it, which is really ......"
"How is it really?" Chu Zifeng raised his eyelids: "A mere eunuch is also worthy of such a taboo from you? If you can do it, you will do it, and if you can't do it, you will go back to Heyang." ”
There was a burst of shame in the old servant's eyes, and his body trembled.
Nominally an entourage, but this old servant is a genuine innate realm. followed Chu Zifeng all the way into Beijing and performed guard duties. But this Chu Zifeng shouted and drank, and his words were without respect, and the old servant had long been unbearable. In recent days, it has become even worse. In just three days, the magnates who could be offended in the capital were almost offended. A little persuasion is a scolding.
The old servant almost couldn't help but have a seizure, but finally sighed and turned away.
Glancing at the old servant's back, Chu Zifeng snorted heavily.
"It is said that the Hou Mansion of Heyang is a speculative nouveau riche, and he is only worthy of being a peaceful man for generations in a small broken town. Others say it's someone else's business, and the saddest thing is that they all treat themselves as turtles. Anyway, sooner or later, I have to break into this capital, and this time I just let people know that the tiger whiskers of my Heyang Marquis Mansion are not so easy to handle. ”
In the past few days, Chu Zifeng has been tracking down the poisoners everywhere, which has really offended many powerful people. It's true to be angry and angry, but it's not like you're dizzy, it's deliberate.
If the crown prince of the dynasty is poisoned, the entire capital will inevitably be rumored to dig three feet into the ground to track down the real culprit. He Chu Zifeng is not compared with the prince, but he doesn't want to be ignored as a stinky fish and shrimp.
On this trip to the capital, he originally wanted to be a blockbuster, starting from the assessment of the inner courtyard and gradually reaching the peak beyond the reach of mortals.
But how can I think that I was insulted by a woman when I went shopping before the exam, and I was insulted by another woman in the inner court assessment. was poisoned and lost the opportunity to be assessed, but the magnates in the capital didn't react at all, only the martial arts institute casually checked.
All of these are superimposed, making Chu Zifeng 10,000 unwilling!!
The investigation in the past few days is true, but he is more of a show of his existence. The accumulated criticism is nothing, and no one will really be embarrassed by the Heyang Marquis Mansion because of this. Whether it's a good name or a bad name, he can no longer tolerate that feeling of being ignored.
Lord Heyang has been waiting for generations, and Chu Zifeng is very familiar with the style of the family's magnates. As long as he finally shows the corresponding strength, those who still mock him now will change their flattering faces in the blink of an eye.
"Without the resources of the inner court, it may take a little more effort. But at most, half a year of time will be enough. What is the inner courtyard, if you can't go, you won't go, take another road, and you will still be impressed. It doesn't matter what kind of sword tower daughter you are, or you are dignitaries, you are all prey in my eyes, and you have to lie at my feet in the end!!"
Chu Zifeng's heart was full of unwillingness and tyranny, and he didn't realize that his thoughts had deviated from the normal trajectory. In the past, he only wanted to climb the temple and worship others. But now, he treats all those who look down on him as prey like birds and beasts. He will kill all those who have offended him, and he will crush their bones......
At this moment, Chu Zifeng suddenly found that outside the inn, there was a sneaky peeping. As soon as he turned his head, the man was stunned, and then hurried away.
There are many people who occasionally come to observe him in the past few days, and Chu Zifeng doesn't care. But suddenly, a face flashed in my mind.
Chu Zifeng was startled, and the wine in his hand was half a cup. Hurry to the door and look around.
Fang just peeked at the man who happened to stop at the corner of the street, quietly looked this way, and the two of them looked at each other.
The honest face, the cautious eyes, seem to be wary and scrutinizing everything.
"It's him?!" Chu Zifeng's pupils constricted, and the nerves in his whole body tensed.
The man seemed to be very flustered when he saw Chu Zifeng, and ran away with his body, extremely embarrassed.
Chu Zifeng just wanted to call someone, but after hesitating, he still chased after him personally.
The old servant of the Innate Realm happened to have not gone far, and when he saw Chu Zifeng's strange appearance, he stopped his steps, as if he was about to ask from afar.
"Go about your business, and leave me alone. Chu Zifeng seemed to be nervous, and subconsciously stopped the old servant.
The old servant was annoyed for a while, and walked away.
At about the same time, thousands of miles away in Heyang Town, Heyang Hou Mansion, in a closed secret room, an existence sitting on a futon opened its eyes.
is the same age as Chu Zifeng, and there seems to be some similarity between the eyebrows. But the bridge of the nose is high, and it is not the appearance of the Central Plains. If Zhang Nan saw this person, he would definitely be surprised.
Because this person is suddenly what Chu Zifeng looked like when his appearance had not changed. However, this person's eyes are obviously different from ordinary people. The whites of the eyes are large, but only in the center are small green pupils.
"After going to the capital, my mental state has been up and down, and it seems that I have gone through a lot of things. But what did you encounter this time? It would shake the spirit?" The man frowned, pinched a few legal decisions, and said clumsily, and a large area of mist appeared in front of him, which condensed into a street scene and a portrait......
Regardless of whether the person is still a thing, the details are not very clear, only the general outline. But these alone are enough to determine the situation.
After seeing it clearly, the man looked suspicious.
Ordinary streets of the capital, there is nothing abnormal. The only thing that was strange was Chu Zifeng, who seemed to be chasing someone in a hurry.
"Just seeing a person, it shook the spirit?, who is it?" the man thought for a moment, and his face gradually became difficult to see.
"Didn't you meet someone related to that woman...... That's the only reason, otherwise I wouldn't chase after it in fear...... But who else? Could it be that the servant who fell into the water is not dead...... Damn, this time we must cut the grass and eradicate the roots......"
......
Chu Zifeng hadn't been so flustered like he was now for a long time, and the source of his panic was just a casual follower who followed the woman. He had even forgotten the man's name, but that man made him extremely nervous.
The man could not threaten his life, he could be crushed to death if he raised his hand. But that person evoked a memory that he was most reluctant to recall, and reminded him of his former humility. In a sense, that person represents his past, that experience that he didn't want to be known.
He had to kill the man, before anyone else could notice him.
Chu Zifeng chased after that figure, and in order to avoid being discovered by others, he himself changed his clothes on the way to avoid possible eyeliner. And out of prudence, some sections along the way have left a unique mark of the Hou Mansion of Heyang.
Chu Zifeng wanted to catch up several times, but he deliberately slowed down his pace, like a wild wolf chasing his prey, unhurriedly forcing the other party. The capital is not an ordinary place, and there must be a suitable and safe hunting ground to facilitate him to show his fangs.
Gradually, the man panicked and fled in the direction of the martial arts.
Chu Zifeng frowned slightly, but soon stretched out again.
Chuyun Avenue, where Chuyun Martial Academy is located, seems to be crowded with people. But if you force the other party into the alley, it is an excellent place.
There are mostly martial arts halls there, and even if someone notices that the martial artists are fighting, they will think that the people in the martial arts hall are practicing. And although there is no shortage of eyeliner in the martial arts hall, they mainly focus on the martial arts academy and other martial arts halls, but they don't pay much attention to outsiders.
"Self-defeating. ”
Chu Zifeng slowed down a little, trying to leave some space for the other party.
He was afraid that he would be forced too tightly, and the other party ran into the martial arts academy in a panic. If it is taken down by the two innate powerhouses guarding the door, the consequences will not be predictable.
The strategy seemed to have worked, and after the figure that had been running away fled to Chuyun Avenue, he turned back three times in one step. Confirming that there was no figure of Chu Zifeng, he hid in an alley, as if he wanted to dodge through it.
Chu Zifeng pretended not to know and walked onto the street. The man was startled, turned around and hid deep in the alley.
Chu Zifeng was even more relieved.
Although he didn't know much about the terrain of the capital, he had also gone up to the Martial Academy Mountain and looked out through the Cloud Illusory Array. Although there are many alleys on both sides of Chuyun Avenue, they are all dead ends.
Chu Zifeng followed into the alley, listened to the hurried footsteps, checked the traces on the ground, and chased him until he reached a courtyard.
The courtyard was dilapidated, and there was still a plaque on the door, which seemed to be some kind of martial arts hall, and it was covered with dust and cobwebs.
"The martial arts hall is open in this kind of place, and it deserves to fail. ”
Chu Zifeng didn't take a closer look, sneered, and stepped in.
The man who had fled in before stood in the middle of the courtyard with his back to the gate.
"Long time no see. Chu Zifeng cornered his prey with a relaxed smile on his face.
"It's not long. The other man got up and turned back.
It's still the same face, but the temperament is very different. His expression was calm and his eyes were deep, as if the host was welcoming guests.
Chu Zifeng panicked inexplicably, his face was still the same face, but it was completely different from what he remembered, as if he had become another person. However, it doesn't seem to be a stranger, where have you seen it? It should be the most recent ......
"Muheti, you are really forgetful. ”
Muheti, Chu Zifeng's original name, represents the name of the Heyang Marquis's alien bloodline.
Belch!?
Chu Zifeng thought of it, and his eyes widened in disbelief.
"How could it be you?"
"How could it be me?" Zhang Nan smiled.
