Volume 1: Yuan Guo Chapter 29: How can friends watch when they have something

29How can a friend stand by and watch when something happens?

Looking at each other, Yun Zhi panicked inexplicably.

I don't know how long this man has been standing here, I don't know if he heard their conversation, and how much? He is a person who is familiar with the Lu family's brothers and sisters, will he start to doubt? Will you ask Lu Shenjun for verification?

In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through Yun Zhi's head.

Finally, she settled down, tried to pull out a smile, and greeted him casually, "Xiao Yi, why are you here?" ”

Xiao Yi smiled faintly and replied, "Come and see, how is your eldest sister?" ”

Yun Zhi saw that his expression was not unusual, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "She was probably frightened by that Zheng Ying girl and got feverish, but just now Ah Yu had already boiled antipyretic medicine for her to eat." ”

Xiao Yi snorted, and didn't say that he wanted to enter the door, but just leaned on the door frame and looked at her, his tone was not wavering, "That's good." ”

Just as Yun Zhi passed by his side and handed the water basin in his hand to the maid of the villa under the corridor, Ah Yu suddenly chased after him, still with the curious look and tone just now, "Zhizhi, what is your senior brother doing now?" ”

Yun Zhi subconsciously looked up at Xiao Yi.

He was staring at her intensely, his eyes full of curiosity and inquiry.

Yun Zhi hurriedly looked away.

Handing the things in her hand to the maid, she turned around and smiled at Ah Yu: "I'm talking nonsense, teasing you, where did I come from, what kind of master and brother did I come from, I haven't been out of Anguo Mansion much." ”

Ah Yu's eyes gradually widened, her cheeks bulged, and after a while, she showed a disappointed expression, "What, what you said is good, I thought it was true!" ”

Yun Zhi smiled, "It's all from the book!" ”

Ah Yu snorted, turned around and went into the house to continue to take care of the patient.

Yun Zhi quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, she heard Xiao Yi ask in a low voice, "From which book did you read it?" ”

Yun Zhi's scalp tightened, and he turned his head and smiled at him: "Secret! ”

"Secret." Xiao Yi sighed and repeated, his tone was faint, "Hmm...... You've got a lot of secrets. ”

Yun Zhi looked like he took it for granted, "It's not you who said it, everyone has things they don't want others to know!" ”

As she spoke, she leaned over to him, a sly flash in her eyes, "You must have a lot of secrets, right?" ”

Xiao Yi's eyebrows jumped, and he began to look at the sky.

Yun Zhi stood up straight, looked into his eyes, and asked seriously, "I don't ask you, and you don't ask me, isn't this an agreement between us?" ”

An extremely obvious trace of regret flashed in Xiao Yi's eyes, but he finally nodded, "Yes." ”

Yun Zhi laughed, suddenly frowned, and sneezed heavily.

It was windy in late autumn, and she had just been busy in the house for a long time, sweating a lot, and when she was blown by the wind, she felt cool.

Xiao Yi's fingers had already landed on her coat, but before she could make the next move, she saw her lift her collar and slipped back into the room in two steps.

He tugged at his fingers for a moment, coughed casually, and turned away.

Not long after, Feng Jiangui, the master of the White Tiger Hall, personally brought someone over with a pile of thick clothes and bedding.

Yun Zhi thought that he was worried about Lu Yunsheng's body, and sighed with Ah Yu, saying that he didn't expect Xiao Yi to be quite a philistine, and he knew how to please His Royal Highness the Prince.

Ah Yu didn't see the situation where the two of them were outside the door just now, and muttered in his heart, wanting to say "love the house and Wu", but he was afraid that Yun Zhi would be too careful, so he only echoed her two sentences.

Approaching dusk, Lu Yunsheng finally had a complete fever, and he woke up, looking much more energetic.

Yun Zhi breathed a sigh of relief.

She had been thinking about her sister Yun Jing in her heart, and when she saw that Lu Yunsheng was fine, she went out to find Xiao Rufeng again, and after an afternoon, it was estimated that the group of people in the Medicine King Valley had already left.

The backyard of the villa is very quiet, passing by several courtyards in succession, there is not even a single figure.

And in Xiao Yi and Pei Shun's yard, there were not even lights.

Yun Zhi felt strange, and couldn't help but speed up his pace and walk towards Xiao Rufeng's courtyard.

It was still empty.

Yun Zhi was secretly alert in her heart, and she didn't know where the people in the village had gone until she walked to the square in the middle of the villa.

In the venue where the sword appreciation conference was held a few days ago, there was a large group of people, all dressed in white and holding swords, which were the disciples who could be seen everywhere in the villa on weekdays.

Xiao Yi was standing on the highest platform in front of him with his hands in his hands, and his face was still covered with the mask with the Vermilion Bird pattern. Qu Shaochen stood beside him, with a cloak on his arm. There was no expression on the faces of the two of them, and there were five or six people from the Medicine King Valley standing next to them, the first one was Cheng Wuji, who had seen him in Ming'an City at noon, and the rest looked familiar, as if they were also the ones they had seen at noon.

When Yun Zhi arrived, he heard Qu Shaochen say that the disciples should line up in groups of ten and go to the stage in turn to identify the disciples of the Medicine King Valley.

The disciples of Qingyi Villa did not hesitate or question at all, they all looked serious, and soon lined up and waited for the stage, looking very calm, as if they were vying to clear the suspicion of their own sect.

Yun Zhi couldn't help but widen his eyes, there are thousands of people at this glance, when do you have to recognize this? What's more, it's about to get dark!

She was surprised when she saw that Xiao Yi had already walked towards her, and he was still carrying the cloak that had just been placed between Qu Shaochen's arms.

"Why are you here too?" Xiao Yi said as he wrapped the cloak in his hand around her, a trace of satisfaction flashed in his eyes, and then he glanced away, coughed lightly, and said, "It's cold, wear more when you go out." ”

Yun Zhi sighed, seeing that his expression was a little strange, and he always coughed, he couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong with you?" Are you sick too? ”

As he spoke, he hurriedly took off the cloak on his body and put it on his chest, and said, "I see that you are wearing thinner clothes than me, but don't freeze for you, my uncle will blame me then." ”

Xiao Yi blinked, "Uncle? ”

"Your uncle." Yun Zhi was worried that the cloak would fall, so he pressed his hand on his chest, and explained: "He said that we are your friends, and he called Master Xiao Zhuang too outside." ”

"I'm not cold." Xiao Yi raised his hand to take the cloak and put it back on her before he began to pick up her words, "It's true." ”

Yun Zhihu glanced at him suspiciously, and suddenly raised his hand and grabbed his hand.

Xiao Yi's body froze suddenly, and his eyes instantly became stunned.

She suddenly let go of her hand again, and her expression became surprised, "You're really not cold!" ”

Wearing so little, and the hands are still warm, this physique is really good!

His fingers bent slightly, and he quickly hid his hand back in his sleeve, humming softly, his eyes glancing unnaturally into the distance.

The sun was setting, and the sunset was scattered all over him, reflecting his ears and cheeks under the mask.

Yun Zhi's attention had been attracted by the disciples who had come to the stage in front of her, and she didn't notice his strange appearance, she only wondered, "You really let them recognize each other like this?" When do you have to recognize this? ”

Xiao Yi coughed lightly again and replied, "Just find something for them to do first, so as not to make trouble for them." ”

Yun Zhi instantly understood what he meant, "How do you know that the murderer must not be among these people?" ”

Xiao Yi smiled faintly, "The Ming'an Santang of Qingyi Villa never uses hidden weapons, this is one of them. Second, the disciples of Qingyi Villa are not stupid enough to commit a crime, and they can so easily let people grab the handle. Third, Qingyi Villa and Yaowang Valley both belong to the Martial Arts Alliance, and my uncle is the leader of the alliance, which disciple will find trouble for his own family? ”

"Not necessarily!" Yun Zhi put forward his thoughts, "With so many disciples, what if any disciple doesn't like his uncle, or doesn't have a good relationship with other people in the village, he deliberately looks for trouble?" ”

Xiao Yi smiled, "So, it's even more important to let the people of the Medicine King Valley recognize people one by one." ”

Yun Zhi understood again, "Oh, you actually want to see if anyone is messing around, right?" After a slight pause, she couldn't help but shake her head slightly, "I thought you trusted these disciples a lot!" ”

Xiao Yi said innocently: "People's hearts are unpredictable. ”

Yun Zhi sighed, "Master Xiao Shaozhuang, don't be suspicious of employing people!" ”

Xiao Yi glanced at her in some surprise, and the corners of his lips curled, "Thanks for reminding me." ”

"That's right!" Yun Zhi suddenly asked, "What about Pei Gongzi?" Didn't I come with you? ”

Xiao Yi's eyes changed slightly, and his tone was stiffer than just now when he spoke, "He went to Ming'an City." ”

Yun Zhi sighed, and didn't ask in detail, she only thought about going to Xiao Rufeng to ask what happened later.

So, she asked, "What about your uncle?" ”

Xiao Yi frowned slightly, "You want to find him?" ”

Yun Zhi nodded, but he was still a little weak, "Something." ”

"That's really not a coincidence, something happened to the Yezhou Divine Sword Sect, he rushed over in the afternoon, and it is estimated that he will not be able to come back for a month."

When Xiao Yi spoke, her eyes kept falling on her face, as if she wanted to see something.

Yun Zhi first let out a look of loss, and then felt surprised, "Then ...... this case now?" ”

Xiao Yi smiled helplessly: "Leave it to me and Brother Pei." ”

Yaowang Valley and Qingyi Villa both belong to the Wulin League, to put it bluntly, this matter is a family matter of the Wulin League, and the two Lingguo Mansion officials don't want to take on the work, so in the afternoon, the case was returned to the Wulin League.

At this time, Xiao Rufeng received the news that the Divine Sword Sect had been slaughtered. The Divine Sword Sect is one of the four major sects in the rivers and lakes today, and it is a big deal that a big sect like this is suddenly slaughtered, so Xiao Rufeng immediately took Feng Jiangui and Xu Lianyi, the two hall masters, straight to Yezhou.

And the case of the death of Zheng Ying, the little junior sister of the Medicine King Valley, naturally fell on Xiao Yi, the owner of the Young Village, and Qu Shaochen, the master of the Qinglong Hall, but at the same time, the people of the Medicine King Valley could not fully trust the Qingyi Villa, so as the personal disciples of the Heavenly Doctor of the Medicine King Valley, Pei Shun had to take over the investigation of the case with them.

Pei Shun's reputation in the Medicine King Valley seemed to be very good, and after proposing that he be in charge of the investigation, everyone in the Medicine King Valley was relieved, but they set a three-day deadline for them.

If the real culprit cannot be found within three days, Qingyi Villa will withdraw from the Wulin League, and Xiao Rufeng will also step down as the leader of the alliance.

Time was tight, but Xiao Yi agreed.

After hearing this, Yun Zhi couldn't help but look at the white-clothed young man in front of him again.

I just felt very puzzled: "Xiao Yi, you look very smart, how could you agree to such a nonsensical thing?" ”

Xiao Yi's face was full of indifference, "I'm not the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance. ”

Yun Zhi was even more puzzled, "Is your uncle not good to you?" ”

"Okay." Xiao Yi sighed slightly, "You don't believe me like that?" ”

His eyes were gloomy, Yun Zhi hurriedly shook his head, and smiled all over his face, "How can it!" How powerful our young master Xiao is! Don't say three days, just tomorrow, tomorrow we can solve this case! Right! ”

Xiao Yi snorted softly and laughed.

The two of them were silent for a while, and Yun Zhi still asked, "That...... Is there anything I can do to help? ”

Although she cares about her sister, she knows very well that in this strange place, she alone can't even recognize all the words, let alone arrive in Yanguo smoothly, she needs to travel with people, so naturally she has to help them solve all the things they encounter along the way. What's more, she also really regards them as friends, since they are friends, how can they stand idly by?

Xiao Yi glanced at her, thought about it seriously, and nodded: "Yes." ”

Yun Zhi looked at him expectantly.

"Hmm......" Xiao Yi winked at her, coughed lightly, and said, "Come and have a meal with me." ”

Yun Zhi was stunned, "Huh? ”

Xiao Yi had already started to walk to the backyard, "Let's go, I'm hungry." ”

"That's right, only when you are full can you have the strength to investigate the case!"

Yun Zhi said to himself, and said, "Ah Yu and my eldest sister haven't eaten either, I'll go and ask them to come together!" ”

said that, without waiting for anyone to agree, he ran away.

“……”

Xiao Yi sighed silently and followed.
