Chapter 170: A Gu Master Who Cultivated a Young Hero

When Qi He went out with his face, Yan Yixuan and Jiang Yan were already sitting at the table.

"Brother Lin, Xiao He, come and sit down," Yan Yixuan beckoned, and after Lin Zhi and Qi He sat down, he said, "Qingxun sent buns to Ziheng." ”

After saving Qu Ziheng's life, the foursome's attitude towards Lin Zhi and Qi He became more affectionate, and even Jiang Yan, who had always been guarding against them, was a lot gentler, at least on the surface.

Seeing Qi He holding the noodles, Yan Yixuan looked greedy, and asked the boss to serve a bowl of chicken noodle soup.

Qi He ate noodles quietly, without specifically explaining that this was a birthday noodle, he didn't want others to know his specific age, and when communicating with Qu Ziheng and them, he specially said that his age was one year older, so as to avoid someone correlating him with Qi He of Chunyi.

After a while, Qing Xun came down from upstairs, and while eating, he told everyone that Qu Ziheng was fine, and he would be able to go down to the ground alive in a while.

Jiang Yan played with the jade pendant on the fan, looked at everyone and said, "Then let's go straight to Yicheng?" ”

Yicheng is the boundary of the Red Feather Gate, and the entrance of the second hall is set up there, and the second hall master Jing Weirong is looking for the lair.

"Wouldn't this be too risky, if we don't get out, the risk is too high, why don't we wait somewhere else, let the wind out, and wait for him to come to the door himself?"

Qing Xun suggested that the main reason was that his martial arts were inferior to those of his companions, and he was likely to lag behind.

Yan Yixuan: "He may feel cheating, when the time comes, send someone to touch our details, won't he know everything, and if this fish is not attracted, won't it be troublesome if it attracts others?" ”

"We followed the original plan, we figured out the situation, pretended to be from the Red Feather Sect and approached, and now with Brother Lin and Xiao He, our chances of success have increased again."

Yan Yixuan looked at Lin Weaving, as if asking if her words were correct.

Lin Zhi raised his eyes and smiled: "Naturally, we will not sit idly by. ”

Yan Yixuan nodded vigorously and patted Qing Xun's arm to reassure him.

Jiang Yan went to the shopkeeper to settle the money, and Qu Ziheng, who had changed into new clothes, came down from upstairs.

"Don't you have any horses, we have four horses, otherwise Brother Lin, you and I will ride together, and Xiao He will let Qingxun take it?"

Qu Ziheng watched Lin Zhi make a proposal, the horses of the four of them were previously placed in a family in this town for him to feed, and Jiang Yan went out to lead the horses as soon as he finished settling the bill.

Before Lin Zhi could speak, Qi He touched the white silk on his eyes and said, "My eyes are inconvenient, I'm afraid I can only trouble Brother Qu to let you let us use one." ”

There was apology in his voice, and Yan Yixuan, who listened to it, immediately said: "No problem, it is more convenient for you to have a horse, my horse is for you, and Qingxun and I are crowded." ”

Qing Xun said that he had no opinion, if Brother Lin squeezed him with him, he would be willing, he wanted to ask Lin Zhi about poison arts.

Qu Ziheng scratched his head: "Yes, that's it!" ”

He just thought that with Brother Lin, he could thank Brother Lin well, ignoring this.

Lin Zhi turned over and got on the horse, and Qi He sat behind him.

Compared to back then, their positions have been reversed.

Qi He is now taller than Lin Weaving, and sitting in front of Lin Weaving can block Lin Weaving's sight.

Lin Zhi held the reins, Qi He patted the horse's buttocks, and caught up with the young men and girls in front of him.

Qi He couldn't see what was in front of him, he could only feel the slightly dry wind from the southwest blowing through his ears.

Except when they were eight years old when they hurried back to Miaojiang, he never rode with Master again.

He was sitting on horseback, and the arms of the young Master, who was then a boy, were wide enough for him to be the only person he could rely on when he 'died'.

And now...... Qi He lowered his eyes, and there was no bump in the air, and the master in front of him had already leaned on his arms.

Qi He had an eye disease and naturally couldn't move the reins, so he hugged his master's waist for fear of falling, so he could only hug it tightly.

He hugged him night after night, from immature to juvenile, he naturally knew that Master's waist was slender and flexible, and it felt very good.

The horses galloped, treading the water and raising ashes, and all the way from the southwest, the lake water light could already be seen, reflecting the intimate figure on the horseback.

From the southwest to Yicheng, you must pass through Qinhe Valley.

The Chinhe Valley looks like a flat-cut gourd from the topography, with both the front and back being narrow.

It is surrounded by a straight moat, and there is only one entrance and exit.

Lin Weaving and the others traveled for a few days to get here, and entered the valley before dark.

Although it is called a valley, there is no difference between the interior and the small town, because it is the only way in one direction, so it is still lively, there are often merchants and customers from the two places, and there are all kinds of things sold on the street.

Lin Zhi and the others found an inn to rest, and Qi He followed Qu Ziheng to the shopkeeper and asked for two rooms.

Qu Ziheng: "Xiao He, you are so polite, I don't know how to repay this life-saving grace." ”

Yan Yixuan smiled on the side and said: "I can't repay the grace of saving my life, so I have to promise each other." ”

Qi He's eyebrows wrinkled slightly unconsciously, if it weren't for the snake cloud grass, he would have wanted to part ways with them a long time ago.

This person named Qu Ziheng is too enthusiastic, he is too close to his master, and he has been a little annoying along the way.

Qu Ziheng waved his hand like a fly: "I'm not you, and I'm not a woman." ”

"This woman would like to, but I don't have such good fortune."

Lin Zhi put his things down and went downstairs, just when he heard this sentence, he asked, "What is a good blessing?" ”

Qu Ziheng smiled and said: "Yixuan said that she wanted to make a promise to you. ”

"Qu Ziheng!" Yan Yixuan angrily called Qu Ziheng's name, and hurriedly explained, "Brother Lin, don't listen to his nonsense, I'm just joking, I swear to God that I don't have the idea of blaspheming you!" ”

Yan Yixuan often thinks about what kind of woman a person like Brother Lin will be convinced by in the end, he has a pair of spring water eyes, giving people a soft and harmless feeling of often laughing, but such a beauty is poisonous, it is even more charming.

Yan Yixuan often appreciates it generously, but she doesn't bring her daughter's affection, her intuition tells her that liking such a person will not end at all.

She clarified again: "It's Qu Ziheng who is saying that the grace of saving his life can't be repaid, I'm teasing him." ”

"If Brother Lin doesn't mind, I can recommend a pillow seat at any time."

Qu Ziheng held the sword and smiled, and his tone was full of banter.

Qi He's hand, who was standing by the railing, subconsciously tightened, and the breath of the people beside him in the dark world was so obstructive.

The handsome young man holding the sword raised his eyebrows, and Lin Zhi just chuckled and shook his head.

"Jiang Yan just said that he was going out to buy something in a while, do you want to go with him?"

Lin Zhi didn't continue to spin on this topic, and the thoughts of the two who were originally joking were naturally taken away.

Yan Yixuan: "Of course, there is no curfew in Qinhe Valley, and there are many places to visit." ”

Qu Ziheng teased: "Then you have to be careful, don't get lost and get separated from us again, thinking that we are not waiting for you, and secretly shed tears in the inn alone." ”

"Tell me who is crying!"

"It's not you, it's some woman with a short sword."

Yan Yixuan raised her hand and was about to fight, Qu Ziheng immediately ran away, and the two of them left with a smile.

Qi He turned his head to look in the direction of Lin Zhi and asked, "Does Master want to go shopping?" ”

"No, I have something to deal with, if you are interested, you can go shopping by yourself."

Lin Zhi has a letter to pass out, and he is not disturbed at this time.

"Okay."

Qi He responded like this, but he didn't go out in the end, and followed Lin Zhi upstairs.

When Xiao Er was wiping the railing at night, he suddenly realized that something was wrong and quickly looked down.

Under the heavy wooden railing, I don't know how a few concave fingerprints appeared, which was particularly strange.

Lin Zhi dealt with the backlog of letters, used specially trained carrier pigeons to transmit messages, and then fed Gu worms in the house, meditating and practicing by the way.

In the middle of the night he fell asleep with his clothes folded, and not long after he slept he heard footsteps on the roof.

He opened his eyes, and the footsteps were gone.

[Someone on it just now? 】

01: [Someone flashed by.] 】

The red dot representing the figure moves very fast, and someone should have stepped on the roof with light skills.

Lin Zhi didn't plan to dig deeper, closed his eyes, heard a few more footsteps, and quickly stepped over the roof.

Judging from the degree of hurry and the strength of the rush, the person behind should be chasing the person in front.

Lin Zhi's eyes didn't open, and he didn't plan to meddle in things.

As soon as it was early in the morning, Lin Zhi heard the sound of conversation downstairs before he could open the door.

He pushed open the door, many people were sitting in the lobby, Qi He was also coming out of the room, the sound downstairs was noisy, and the words 'city lord' and 'thief' could be vaguely heard.

Qu Ziheng, who came back from outside, reported the situation and said: "I heard that there was a theft in the city lord's mansion, and the roads in and out were blocked. ”

Jiang Yan frowned: "How can you be in such a hurry, we only came in yesterday, and now we are blocked here, and things will be delayed." ”

Yan Yixuan yawned and asked, "What was stolen?" ”

Qu Ziheng: "I don't know, the officers and soldiers only said that no one can leave here, I went to take a look, and there are still many people in the rivers and lakes guarding the door, which is really strange." ”

Jiang Yan said with a smile: "I really don't know, what's so strange about this, this is Qinhe Valley." ”

Lin Zhi nodded in his heart, it is indeed not strange that the officers and soldiers here have a relationship with the people in the rivers and lakes.

The city lord of Qinhe Valley is surnamed Chen, his brother is Chen Buyu, who is known as the fairy in the rivers and lakes, in the early years, Qinhe Valley was frequently plagued by bandits because of the terrain, the city lord was miserable, and walked one after another, some unlucky ones were even killed, after the Chen city lord took office, Chen Buyu took his friends to slaughter bandits for the safety of his younger brother, and the corpses were connected to put a few streets.

After that, Qinhe Valley was much more peaceful, and the city lord also raised a lot of Jianghu guests in the house, and occasionally met people in the rivers and lakes on the road, and invited them to eat and drink.

It seems that the people who passed by the roof last night had something to do with the theft.

Qi He whispered in Lin Zhi's ear: "Did Master hear anything last night?" ”

Lin Zhi nodded slightly, he hadn't decided whether to meddle in this matter or not.

In such an instant, the heroic young men next to them had already made a decision.

Yan Yixuan proposed: "Hengzhu can't get out here, otherwise let's go and ask what is lost, and see if we can help, Di Zhongxian and my father still have a relationship, although I haven't seen it a few times." ”

Everyone said they would leave, and soon arrived at the City Lord's Mansion.

With Yan Yixuan's father's face, they successfully met City Lord Chen.
