It's the most lively time of Chinese New Year's Eve, and the brilliant and colorful fireworks bloom in the sky from time to time, reflecting Jiankang City as bright as day. It seems to have returned to this moment last year, with loud voices and cheers, and it spread far away to Zhongshan Mountain, where there is still residual snow.

Han Li's robe was blown by the mountain wind, and where the corners were placed, the majestic falcon embroidered with gold thread spread its wings and flew like flying. He quietly listened to the laughter and joy in the distance, and watched Sha'er kneel down in front of a small inconspicuous mound, and Qia Er was also by Sha'er's side, and the two girls began to bow with solemn expressions, but there was a deep sadness and remembrance in Sha'er's solemnity, and Qia Er was simply infected by Sha'er's mood.

Since Sha'er and Qia'er left Luoyang, they have not returned to the Qianjia family with Gan Fei, nor have they returned to Shanzang Village with the old patriarch Yan Wudang, this is Gan Fei's idea, the disciples of the Qianjia family are supporting the coffin to go back, it can be imagined that the grief after entering the courtyard does not seem to be suitable for them to face such a situation. It is also a loss to Gan Fei to feel sorry for his daughter, the bustle and prosperity of the New Year in Jiankang City always have to let Qia'er from the poor countryside see and understand, and the pain of adults should not affect the children, so he entrusted Qia Er and Sha'er to Han Lizhao, who was about to return to Jiankang City, with this Lei Ying and the world's top swordsman by his side, Gan Fei was naturally one hundred and twenty rest assured, and let Yan Haozi also follow, not only the meaning of one more person to take care of him, but also let Yan Haozi be a guide, first let the children have a happy New Year, and wait for a qiē to settle down, and then it is not too late for Yan Haozi to bring the two girls back to settle down。 It just so happened that he had said that Han Li would also come together, so he killed two birds with one stone, and Gan Fei planned it very well.

Yan Haozi's injured half of his wing had not yet healed, but it was much better than when he was first injured, so he could barely glide in mid-air with his body sideways, and this way back was a few days later than expected, and when he arrived in Jiankang City, it was just in the afternoon of Chinese New Year's Eve.

Han Li went to the Great Sima Mansion as usual, and then learned that due to the meritorious service of the Great Sima Northern Expedition, the Son of Heaven Longyan Dayue invited the Great Sima to go to the Gyeonggi Emperor's Mausoleum, one is to worship the heavens and tell the ancestors, the other is to celebrate the New Year, and then in the palace to celebrate the New Year, it is always necessary to come back after the Shangyuan Festival, and even the princess of Nankang and all the swordsmen of the Great Sima Mansion also went with him, and this time it was more than ten days. Although with Han Li's current figure, it is too late to really catch up with the past, but after all, there are many inconveniences, Han Li is also relieved, so he took Sha'er Qia'er and Yan Haozi to have a New Year's dinner in Jixian Garden in Fuzhong, and only spent this year leisurely, waiting for Da Sima to return to the house.

Today is the death day of her grandmother, and she wants to go to the place where Grandma Zhongshan died to pay respects. So, there was this scene before. That small mound is the tomb where Sha'er buried her grandmother's rabbit head last year, even though she forgave Yu Shihuan, but forgiveness does not mean forgiveness, she is still haunted by her grandmother's death.

"They should also come to Qian's house, I think, the atmosphere there will be heavier than here. Yan Haozi said with a gloomy expression, it can be inferred that the sister-in-law cried after learning the bad news, Yan Haozi's heart tightened for a while, he was willing to accompany Sha'er Qia'er to come here, in fact, it was not without the meaning of escape, he couldn't bear to face that kind of sadness directly.

Ever since he saw the familiar old residence of Da Sima Mansion, which stirred his heart, Han Li was stunned when he saw things and people, and at this time last year, accompanied by Yiren, he was also happy and excited with the longing for harmony and the warmth of affection, and the beautiful days were close at hand, but he never thought that it would eventually become such a result. Sometimes, Han Lizhen felt that this qiē was like a dream, trance-like and absurd, and he even preferred that he was not the incarnation of some Heavenly Guardian Divine Beast, but just an ordinary man who never involved in strange things. Of course, this kind of mentality is only occasionally thought of and then put aside, there is never an if in the world, and always sinking into hypothetical dissatisfaction will only make people more depressed and degraded.

"At the end of Ding Si's year, saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new, he can't be so depressed and incomprehensible. Besides, Brother Gan wants me to take them to see the prosperity of the gold dust in the capital, and after the worship, I will take them to Qinhuai River for a walk......" Han Li tried his best to put aside the lingering shadow of Yiren in his heart, a smile appeared on the corner of his lips, but his fingers couldn't help rubbing the pearl between his necks, and when he talked about Qinhuai River, he suddenly thought that at this time last year, there was another person who was also with him.

“...... Ziyan no longer lives on the banks of the Qinhuai River, most of them are among the Mausoleum Captains, but he doesn't know where the Mausoleum Lieutenants are......" Han Li muttered to himself, but Yan Haozi's eyes lit up: "Ah? Brother Lei Ying asked me?"

"Ah, no, I thought about things in my heart, and I couldn't help but say it, but I had the intention to visit an old friend on the occasion of this New Year, but I don't know where he is now, go back to the house and ask, I can always know. ”

"No, you're going to worship the Mausoleum Captain? Yan Haozi pointed to his nose: "I've been with the fat second child from afar, but he doesn't know that I am following in the sky, but I know the direction." ”

......

Even in front of this mansion, which is far away from the city and is located at the foot of the Covered Zhou Mountain, which looks extremely vast and quiet, you can still hear the noise coming from Jiankang City, so the sound of Han Li patting the beast's mouth and banging on the door is not so harsh.

Han Li was very surprised that Yan Haozi actually knew the location of the Tomb Captain, and the Tomb Captain was not far from the Zhongshan Mountain where they were, and they only took off a little bit to ride the wind, and they arrived quickly. When he was in mid-air, Han Li could see the light of the lights emitting from the depths of this mansion, and there was a faint aura of Xuan Ling, which made him believe that the current Tomb Captain must be under the leadership of Teng Xiang.

The echo of the knock on the door was still swirling in mid-air, and two doors were heard creaking and a small crack opened.

"Who is Your Excellency? Why did you come here for the Chinese New Year?" The voice coming from the crack in the door was very magnetic, and Han Li saw a pair of crystal clear eyes.

Han Li took a step back and bowed his hand: "Dare to ask Teng Xiang if Mr. Teng Ziyan is here?"

"You ask Master Teng, he has celebrated the New Year in Jingling, and he won't be able to return until the New Year. ”

Han Li was quite relieved to hear that Teng Xiang was also called an adult, but after hearing the second half of the sentence, he felt a little regretful, how did Ziyan go to Jingling?

The crack in the door did not close, and the pair of crystal clear eyes were very attentive to the person outside the door, not only Han Li, who was standing first, but also Yan Haozi, who seemed to be listless and wilting, and swept past Sha'er, who covered her peerless face with a thick coat of coarse cloth, and Qia'er, who was pulling by Sha'er and was looking around the door with a curious gaze.

Squeak, the crack in the door was opened, and a young man's head poked out, with an aura that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and his face was a little red, as if he had drunk wine, Han Li smelled a slight smell of wine from him.

"Ah, wait, I think I know who Your Excellency is. The young man withdrew his gaze from the corner of Han Li's clothes, and suddenly bowed down to Han Li with a big bow: "Lord Teng has always said that he has a close friend, who is the world's premier knight, and is also the hottest chief swordsman of the Great Sima Mansion. ”

The other party recognized himself from the robe embroidered with a frectory and Han Li was not surprised by this, but although he had a very high status in the Beijing government and the opposition because of the swordsman of the Great Sima Mansion, he never belonged to the official system, but he was just a white ding, and now this young man named Wu Ping called the word adult more affectionately, and Han Li was also a little crying and laughing: "Don't dare, since Ziyan is not here, when he comes back, I will come to visit another day." ”

"Oh, why does Lord Han need to see the outside world like this? Lord Han is Lord Teng's best friend, and in our eyes, he is the same as Lord Teng. If he knew that the villains would let Lord Han go like this, he would definitely blame the villains for treating the guests slowly. Fortunately, it is the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, and the department is having a New Year's dinner, why not sit down and drink a few glasses of water and wine, which is also a gift for the New Year. ”

This Wu Ping is very attentive, Han Li thought about it, even if Teng Xiang was not there, but he was also quite curious about this Mausoleum Lieutenant Office, but he had the heart to see what was going on inside, so he smiled and bowed: "It's okay, it's just to disturb your New Year's dinner, it's a lot of trouble." ”

"Lord Han, where are you talking about? This is a distinguished guest who can't even be invited by the small office. Wu Ping's gaze turned to Yan Haozi and Sha'er Qia'er, and added: "Friends of adults are also distinguished guests, everyone, please, the villain will lead the way." ”

Han Li Shi Ran stepped in, Yan Haozi followed behind, and while Wu Ping was not paying attention, he whispered to Sha'er: "This sycophant is not simple. ”

Sha'er blinked her blue eyes, "What's wrong?"

"He saw what we were, but he deliberately didn't say it. Interesting, I'd like to see what he came up with. Yan Haozi stared at Wu Ping's back, sneering at the corner of his mouth.

"He's also from the Demon Suppression? If you want to do something to us? Sha'er was puzzled.

"You may not be able to do it, but there must be a mystery, you and Qia'er should be careful for a while, get closer to Brother Lei Ying, with Brother Lei Ying, you can't suffer." ”

Sha'er nodded, her heart was so grateful, after the initial slight embarrassment, she was now extremely comfortable with her seniority in front of Han Li and Yan Haozi, they were all fathers, and she was not a well-behaved and lovely junior girl? Qia'er habitually twitched the corners of her mouth, but suddenly pinched Sha'er's hand to signal, and frowned at the person who came out from inside.

"Who is it?" I seem to smell ......" The person who came out was slender and long, with low cheeks, a fusion of wine and the smell of unknown breath on his body, and he was still holding a wine glass in his hand, but before he finished speaking, he was shocked after seeing Han Li, and he was directly stunned on the spot.

Sha'er looked at it, and was also stunned, she had seen this person, no, it was not a person, speaking of which, she still had an old grudge with him, and she was likely to be regarded by him as a mortal enemy--- that Pingtaowu's dust-related demon envoy was scaleless, and he had betrayed him, so that he almost died in the hands of the Absolute Wave God.

But Wu Yan hadn't noticed her yet, his eyes didn't flicker, he just stared at Han Li, his face was full of expressions of shock, surprise and fear and panic, it was no wonder, he was a Blood Spirit Dao demon after all, whether he had reformed or not, in front of the Five Sage Humans, after all, he still had that kind of fear from the bones.

Han Li glanced at Scaleless lightly, his Thunder Eagle Divine Power had already been sent and received from his heart, and he used it freely, directly seeing through Scaleless's true appearance, but he didn't make the next move, but he was very surprised that there could be such a blood spirit demon in the Tomb Commander's Office, and it seemed that he was quite friendly with that Wu Ping.

In fact, he also had a relationship with Scaleless in the past, but after that quick meeting, Han Li had long forgotten it, but for Scaleless, it was still fresh in his memory.

"Lord Teng's good friend, Lord Han of the Great Sima Mansion, Brother Wu has seen it?" Wu Ping noticed the panic of Wu Scale, and deliberately asked as if he was playing a round, but his footsteps towards the guest did not stop.

"See ......" Scaleless only burst out with one word, and after suddenly seeing Sha'er behind Han Li, he was stunned again.

A strange atmosphere brewed between Scaleless and Sha'er, Sha'er let go of Qia'er, secretly lucked her strength, and was ready for the other party to turn against her and fight, she thought to herself that she might not be a scaleless opponent, but by Han Li's side to Uncle Han, she believed that she would be safe and sound.

"Does Lord Wu know, who is this benevolent brother?" Han Li stopped, did not keep up with Wu Ping, stared coldly at Wu Ping, and his tone changed.

"With the same clan as the villain, he is also surnamed Wu, but he is also the lieutenant officer of this department, Sima Wu Ling. Wu Ping snorted.

"Lord Wu doesn't really think you're from the same clan as him, right?" What made Han Li so aggressive was that he had also discovered the hateful look between Sha'er and the other party. In fact, there was no need to be so tight about dealing with such a little demon, but after all, Han Li was entrusted to Gan Fei and could not let Sha'er suffer the slightest damage, which made him decide to teach the other party a lesson first......

Almost at the moment when the words fell, Wu Ping felt that the blue light and shadow in front of him flashed, and his complexion suddenly changed greatly, and he hurriedly stepped forward, but his body moved, and suddenly a strong thunder and lightning light burst out, and the wine glass held by no scales came out of his hand, his body shook, and he fell on his back, and then the wine glass fell in an arc and fell to pieces on the ground.

"Ah, wait ...... slow" but Yan Haozi and Wu Ping rushed over in unison.

It can only be said that Han Li started too quickly, making their speech a beat slower.

A woman's exclamation came from the courtyard: "Brother Ang, what's wrong with you?" I saw a slender figure in a thorn hairpin cloth skirt quickly following out of the courtyard, helping Wu Scale, Wu Scale's face turned pale, and he shook his head and looked at Han Li: "It's okay, his subordinates are merciful, and he didn't want my life." ”

The woman raised her head and glared at Han Li angrily: "Why did you hurt people for no reason?"

Han Li looked at the woman's face in amazement, and his mind was dizzy for a while, this Dai eyebrows were smoky, apricot eyes and peach cheeks, her face was picturesque, and she was beautiful, she ...... She...... Isn't she Wuqing?
