The coquettish voice of the flower girl came, Chu Li frowned slightly, and the merchant's cry was mixed with the laughter of a child.

The boots under his feet were wet with dirt, and Chu Li walked towards the depths of the alley.

There was the sound of a man's footsteps behind him, and the young man reacted quickly and turned around, his thin lips lightly opened: "I haven't seen you for a long time, Uncle Zhou." ”

Under the hat, a scar that ran from the bridge of his nose to the back of his ear was terrifying, and the man was tall and rough, and he was overjoyed when he saw Chu Li.

"Young master, my subordinates have been waiting for you for a long time."

Chu Li bowed slightly, the man's name was Zhou Qi, and he was the leader of the Cangying Guard in Zhaozhou cultivated by the Xiao clan for generations.

That secret letter was passed on by him, and over the years, Chu Li had secretly contacted Cangyingwei in order to find out the truth about the fall of the Xiao clan back then.

Following the man to a dilapidated courtyard, Zhou Qi pushed open the door and led the young man into the house.

The house is not big, but it is very clean, there are a lot of weapons hanging on the wall, Zhou Qi runs a blacksmith shop in Los Angeles, and the business is not very good, but the location is hidden and convenient for transmitting news.

Zhou Qi poured a cup of tea for the young man in front of him, "Young master, you have suffered all these years. ”

Chu Li's eyes drooped slightly, and he took a sip of the teacup and put it down, "What is Uncle Zhou's news?" The young man had no intention of greeting him, but he was straightforward.

Zhou Qi straightened up, looked serious, took out a small piece of cloth from his arms and handed it over.

Chu Li took it, and the cloth engraved with dark patterns was only the size of a palm, and there were a few dried blood stains, and the words on it were a little difficult to read.

"It was found from the little soldier who escaped in the battle of Tianmen Mountain, he has been seriously ill for many years, and he doesn't know much about the things of that year, and when we found him, he was already dead."

"But what is certain is that Old General Xiao had absolutely no intention of rebelling back then, he was a scout in Long Yinjun back then, and he was stabbed and wounded at all but did not die."

"It was General An under the command of the old general who entrusted him when he was dying, and he wanted to send him back to Yanjing."

"It's a pity ......" Speaking of this, Zhou Qi couldn't bear to continue.

Chu Li took his words, "It's a pity that the 70,000 army in that battle was wiped out, and the entire Pingcheng was burned down in one fire, and this piece of evidence that can prove the innocence of the Xiao clan was also destroyed in that fire. ”

"The letters with the Beirong enemy found in the uncle's study confirmed the Xiao family's treason for collaborating with the enemy."

"This little soldier can only hide all the truth incognito."

Chu Li picked up the cloth in his hand and pointed to the words on it, "This is the secret text in the Dali army, and the cloth is also produced in the north, and the dark patterns on it are only unique to the Beirong royal family." ”

"Young master, this is indeed a love letter left by the old general, but I didn't expect it, just one step away, one step, ......"

"This is the death situation for the Xiao family, the corpse of the year is buried with white bones, and no news can be sent to the Golden Palace." The boy sneered.

"Young master, the Xiao family was victimized by traitors, and now that the young master has grown up safely, it is time for the Yanyun Sixteen Horsemen to welcome back their master." Zhou Qi said earnestly.

"The reward order for chasing me has not been solved all these years, and there are too many people in the entire Dali who want my life."

"When my grandfather died on the battlefield, the whole dynasty thought that my uncle Xiao Huaisang colluded with Beirong to plot the dynasty and usurp the throne.

"The Xiao family was beheaded, and I, a son of evil with the blood of the Xiao family, is not tolerated by the world." A sneer crossed Chu Li's eyes.

"But isn't all this what the one wants to see the most?"

"Single-mindedly wanting to become a Ming monarch but jealous of the power of the minister, the saint is cheeky and evil-hearted, and he is enshrined by the people of the world in the Xuanzheng Palace, showing his benevolence and kindness."

"Hypocrisy at its core." The corners of the young man's mouth sneered, and he carved these words into his heart.

"The young master now has a plan, and his subordinates have been dormant for many years, just waiting for the young master's orders." Zhou Qi's eyes were full of tears, full of hope.

"Your Majesty is now obsessed with the art of alchemy and immortality, three months ago, the third prince was newly appointed as the crown prince, and he entered the East Palace, and Li Guifei of Zichen Palace is now on the rise, and she is bound to find the bones of His Royal Highness."

"The young master is weak now, and he needs to be cautious in everything."

"This time I return to Yanjing, the young master must find an excellent opportunity to restore your prince's throne openly and block the mouth of Youyou."

"Over the years, Uncle Zhou has worked hard for me." Chu Li smiled gently.

"It's all a matter of subordination." Zhou Qi lowered his head and replied.

"You have been dormant alone in Los Angeles for many years, and the tea you drink on weekdays is so bitter, it's really hard." The young man picked up the teacup and put it in his mouth, his slightly drooping eyelashes hiding the chill in his eyes.

"Young master really ......" Zhou Qi's voice did not fall, as if he suddenly realized something, and raised his head in disbelief.

"Zhou Qi, with life as bait, you really look up to me." Chu Li sneered.

The face of the man in front of him changed greatly, "You really know, why do you still come?" ”

"Why?"

From the moment he received the letter, he knew that this situation had begun, and since that night's assassination, his whereabouts have been exposed, but he has not been pursued along the way, which is too unusual.

After so long, even the most intelligent beast will let its guard down and step into the trap unsuspectingly.

What they want is to kill with one blow and leave no respite, but these people will not understand that he is suspicious by nature, even if it is Cangyingwei, who is loyal to the Xiao family for generations, he has never really trusted.

Human nature is changeable, and it is an eternal truth.

The young man poured out the tea in his hand, and a cup of the most ordinary tea was so bitter and difficult to eat, that he had already brewed it before he came.

There was not a trace of mud on the hat, but it made the appearance of rushing back from outside.

"Zhou Qi, you shouldn't be soft-hearted." The strategy full of mistakes and omissions can't be hidden from him at all.

The man knelt on the ground, his face as dead as ashes.

"Why, haven't you come out to see you after hiding for so long?" The boy looked out of the room, his voice cold to the bone marrow.

The time was approaching, and the boy had not yet returned, Jun Chaoyun was anxious, and the people around him began to board the ship one after another.

The girl hesitated, forcing herself to steady herself.

Touching the token in her arms, she suddenly realized something.

A token, with the burden of a woman's dress, but what about it?

When the young man left, he had nothing and didn't prepare for himself at all, Jun Chaoyun had a thought in his heart.

He wanted to leave himself behind.

It's all a lie, this little madman wants to send her to Qingzhou alone.

Jun Chaoyun thought angrily, turned his head and ran back to the inn.

Along the way, she desperately recalled every detail of her previous life in Los Angeles, and suddenly a small thing came to her mind.

Blood.

That's right, it's blood, she was seriously ill in her previous life, and one day Chu Li said that she was going out to buy some dry food, and she slept in the dark after waiting for a long time.

When he woke up again, the people in Los Angeles were disheartened and chaotic, and Chu Li fled out of the city with the displaced people behind his back.

She seemed to smell the faint smell of blood that day, and she thought she was sick and confused, so she forgot about it.

The book said that Chu Li died young due to a recurrence of a dark disease, not because of the injury he suffered that night, but in Los Angeles, Chu Li was injured, and she didn't know it.
