Shenmu Mountain in Huizhou Mansion has always been a holy place for the defense of the country, because it is located here Hongming Academy, one of the seven academies of the human race, so many literati and scholars will come to make a pilgrimage every day.

There are farmers who come to pray for a good harvest this year, there are young scholars who come to ask the academy to bless the state of Kaoshun, and there are also many parents who want their son Jackie Chan to come to worship with their children, and even more exaggerated, there are even many pregnant women who come to visit, hoping that the children in their wombs can also be touched with holy energy.

But in recent days, they all suddenly discovered that they didn't know when a family of granddaughters lived at the foot of Shenmu Mountain.

Shenmu Mountain is the most sacred place in the entire Wei Kingdom, so Emperor Wei once issued an edict that no buildings should be built within a radius of 100 miles from Shenmu Mountain

There was once an opportunistic trader who thought he had taken advantage of the loophole, and even built a pergola at the foot of Shenmu Mountain, hoping to use the fame of Shenmu Mountain to sell tea, but the final result was that he was directly seized by the Holy Inquisition in the black prison and never saw the light of day again.

With the lessons of the past, since then, no one has dared to challenge the authority of Shenmu Mountain.

So, what is the matter with the grass house that has appeared here now?

People with good deeds want to find out, but they find that although the pair of granddaughters seem weak and easy to deceive, they are extremely tight-mouthed, no matter how much they are like lotus flowers, they can't get a word out of the mouths of the two.

At first, there were bets that this cottage would be demolished by the Holy Inquisition, but this time, all the people in the Holy Inquisition became blind and deaf, no matter how many people came to report it. And no action was taken about the shabby-looking cottage from beginning to end!

Not only did the Holy Inquisition take no action, but even the disciples of Hongming Academy's mountain guards also adopted an attitude of resignation to this, so as to do so. Everyone immediately became in awe of this cottage.

They finally knew that the old and the young in the house were not simple people!

Over time, the people in Huizhou seem to be accustomed to it, and even regard this grass house as one of the scenery of Shenmu Mountain, and countless people come to visit it every day.

Such a change was obviously something that Xu Huanyi did not expect at first, fortunately. It didn't last long, and after a few more days, the man he was waiting for finally came.

"Still haven't you found anything today?" Xu Huanzhi looked at the lost autumn leaves on his face. I couldn't help but ask.

Akiba shook her head in frustration and said, "I can't keep bothering the old gentleman like this, if I can't find Sister Qiao'er tomorrow, I'm ready to go home." ”

Xu Huanzhi waved his hand. As if to reassure, "It's okay. Speaking of which, you have been taking care of the old decay for the past few days, and Xu should be ashamed. ”

Xu Huanzhi is telling the truth, in the past few days, in addition to his experience of fighting with Lu Yu on the bed, it can be said that Qiu Ye takes care of all his daily life, and even deals with those curious travelers, Qiu Ye also comes forward.

In the words of Akiba. Along the way, there wasn't much left of her coils. So I can't afford to live in the inn of the state capital, I hope to be able to live in the grass house for a few days, until she finds Lin Qiao'er, in order to express her gratitude to the old man, during this time, whether it is laundry and cooking, or fetching water and firewood, the autumn leaves are all covered, and Xu Huanzhi is not allowed to move a finger at all.

Therefore, Xu Huanzhi finally accepted the existence of autumn leaves, and no longer had the slightest doubt about it.

But I didn't want to, today's autumn leaves suddenly had a sense of farewell, and I couldn't help but feel a faint reluctance in the old man's heart, of course, he didn't force the other party to stay, but said apologetically: "I'm really sorry, I didn't expect that my old friends in Huizhou Mansion all left for some reason, so I couldn't help." ”

Akiba shook his head understandingly: "The old gentleman has helped me a lot, and Akiba has also benefited a lot in the past few days." ”

Xu Huanzhi was silent for a moment, hesitating whether to instruct her on something before Akiba left, but unfortunately, before he could speak, the door of the grass house was suddenly pushed open.

A middle-aged man with a bright face stepped in.

"This gentleman ......" Seeing this, Akiba was about to get up and stop the other party.

"Akiba-girl, this is my friend. Xu Huanzhi smiled slightly, stopping Akiba's next move.

Who would have thought that after the man walked into the grass house, he did not immediately greet Xu Huanzhi, but looked at the autumn leaves in front of him with a bright smile in his eyes.

"This girl is so handsome!"

Hearing this slightly frivolous admiration, Autumn Leaves was slightly stunned, and couldn't help frowning and taking two steps back.

Seeing this, Xu Huanzhi couldn't help but smile and said, "Miss Autumn Leaves doesn't need to mind, my old friend is like this, and he doesn't mean to tease you." ”

Hearing Xu Huanzhi's words, the man couldn't help but sigh again: "The girl was born so delicate, but in the name of autumn leaves, the so-called spring flowers and autumn leaves are scattered, in my opinion, it is really not worthy of the name!"

After a pause, the middle-aged man set his eyes on Xu Huanzhi, and said with a strange face: "Huanzhi, don't tell me, this is your granddaughter?"

Xu Huanzhi shook his head with a smile and said, "No, it's just a chance encounter here." ”

When the middle-aged man heard this, his face suddenly showed curiosity, but he didn't get to the bottom of it, but went straight to the point: "Say, you just came out of the customs and couldn't wait to call me over, what the hell is going on?"

When he asked this, the middle-aged man didn't seem to have the slightest scruples about Akiba's presence, but Akiba took the initiative to say: "Since the old gentleman and your friend have something to talk about, then Akiba will wait outside the door." ”

Xu Huanzhi waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's okay." ”

As he spoke, Xu Huanzhi looked at the middle-aged man again, and then said with a solemn expression: "Two months ago, I sensed a ray of the Demon Lord's breath, and it was from Hongming Academy!"

The middle-aged man didn't expect that as soon as Xu Huan opened his mouth, it would be such earth-shattering news!

After a pause, the middle-aged man, for the sake of prudence, still made a light move, completely isolating the voices between the two from the outside world.

At this point, Akiba could no longer hear the words of the conversation between the two, she lowered her head slightly, and a faint regret crossed her eyes.

After a while, the middle-aged man stood up from Xu Huanzhi's side and walked out of the grass house without saying a word, no one knew what he came and left in such a hurry, and even at this moment, Qiu Ye didn't even know who the other party was.

"That friend of the old gentleman, is it just leaving?" Akiba looked at Xu Huanzhi with doubts flashing in his eyes.

Xu Huanzhi nodded, pondered for a moment, and said: "I'm afraid I will leave tomorrow, and I won't come back after that, if you still can't find Miss Lin Qiao'er, it doesn't hurt to come back and stay for a few days." ”

Akiba knew that he couldn't ask more, so he smiled and said, "Then Akiba is here to wish you a smooth journey." ”

Xu Huanzhi smiled without saying a word, closed his eyes lightly, and said no more.

The grass house of this night seemed extremely silent, as if the last tranquility before the storm.

Tonight's Shenmu Mountain is also a lot more deserted than in the past, at this time Su Yu has already fallen asleep, Lu Yu walked slowly on the side of the medicine garden of the Baicao Garden, looking at the black crowd in front of him, but he was always a little hesitant and did not make a final decision.

In the evening of this day, a piece of news suddenly came back to Hongming Academy, causing an uproar.

Wushuang Academy is actually hunting down the students of the major academies in the Lost Swamp!

This news came from Mo Xun's group!

The specific situation is not known for the time being, but according to Mo Xun, in this trial, Hongming Academy has lost at least a dozen tribute students, and three or four imperial scholars!

They don't know for the time being, even Liu Zide, Academician Liu, who led the team, has already been killed!

But even so, such a loss is also very considerable for Hongming Academy, especially since these students and teachers did not die in the mouths of demon beasts, but in the hands of the teachers and students of Wushuang Academy, which is even more infuriating!

As the dean of Hongming Academy, Lu Yu must make a decision to stop the raid of the Peerless Academy, and the best way is to send the Imperial Book and Hanlin who remained in the academy to the Lost Swamp, so as to resist the deliberate attack of the Peerless Academy.

However, now Lu Yu didn't dare to make such a decision lightly, because Xu Huanzhi was like a fish thorn, stuck in his throat, making him vigilant.

However, the dignity of the college is never allowed to be trampled on by others, and as the dean of the college, Lu Yu cannot turn a blind eye to the danger of the lives of the students of the college.

Therefore, after careful consideration, Lu Yu finally gave the order for the backbone of the academy to rush to the Lost Swamp, but cautiously left Bai Jianqiu and Lu Sanjiao.

Perhaps, no one would have imagined that tonight's Hongming Academy is the weakest and most empty moment since its establishment a hundred years ago!

Seeing the academy academicians leave, Lu Yu's somewhat deep eyes became more and more solemn, he looked up at the dark night with a little oppression, and muttered to himself: "I hope my decision is not wrong." ”

Lu Sanjiao walked to Lu Yu's side and asked, "Why did Wushuang Academy suddenly make a move?"

Lu Yu sighed faintly: "Paper can't contain fire, perhaps, what happened back then was already known to them." ”

Lu Sanjiao was silent for a moment, then suddenly looked up at the low thick clouds in the night, and said intentionally: "It's going to rain." ”

Lu Yu withdrew his gaze from the night sky, looked in the direction of the mountain gate of Shenmu Mountain, and said, "I hope Xu Huanzhi won't do stupid things." ”

In front of the mountain gate, Bai Jianqiu stood there with a solemn face, his eyes had been looking at the direction of the grass house under the mountain, so he knew that someone had visited Xu Huanzhi tonight, and he left in a hurry, Bai Jianqiu couldn't recognize who that person was, but he faintly felt that the peace between the two sides seemed to be finally broken.

The next moment, he watched a fellow disciple come out of the mountain gate, and said secretly in his heart: "Su Wen, don't let me down is ......" (to be continued......
