Liu Sheng didn't know what to say for a while, Chen Zhao walked over and said, "The head is no longer alive. ”

Lu Yunxiang was stunned, and Xu Qing hurriedly said: "This is... What's going on? How could the chief be..."Chen Zhao said: "All of us in the rivers and lakes have been poisoned by the splitting marrow, so..." Xu Qing said: "Didn't you say that the master had already retrieved the antidote?"

Zhong Liuyan saw that Chen Zhao wanted to speak and stopped, and then his words replied: "Before the Ye master returned, one of us had an animal who did something against the sky, and killed several heads and the remaining disciples, and the head and the head of the sect were all poisoned and powerless to resist, and they all fell to the ground and died in Jiuquan." ”

The three of them were silent for a long time, and then Lu Yunxiang said: "Who is it, who is doing this thing to punish the heavens? Even if he relies on the head and a few masters, the marrow splitting poison in his body will not be at his mercy to such a situation." ”

Zhong Liuyan secretly wondered if he wanted to inform Fengxuan about the ancient sword, but they definitely didn't believe it, but they couldn't explain it if they didn't say it, Xu Qing hurriedly said: "Miss Zhong, tell us who this person is first?"

Chen Zhao said two words: "Fu Zhen." ”

As soon as these two words came out, a few people were immediately surprised, and Xu Qingyi said: "Master Chenzhai, I heard it right, you are right....." Zhong Liuyan said: "You heard it right, it is the shallow water to help the disciple Fu Zhen." Xu Qing said with a smile: "It is impossible, Senior Brother Fu is righteous and Bo Yuntian, he has lived and died with us, I worship under Ye Yunmen with him, I know his personality very well, if he is.... I, Xu Qing, would never believe it. Zhong Liuyan said: "It's natural that Xu Shaoxia doesn't believe it, but these are all what I and Brother Chen have seen with our own eyes, and there will be no mistakes." Xu Qing said: "Then it must be that the two of you are mistaken, were you two beside the head master at that time?"

Zhong Liuyan and Chen Zhao saw that Xu Qing didn't believe it, so they told the details of Lu Youzi's murder one by one, Xu Qing and Lu Yunxiang, Peng Yulan and Peng Yushan, plus Lu Ziang, all listened carefully.

Chen Zhao said that Fu Zhen held a sword and fought with Wang Qing, the head of the Songjiang faction, and defeated the two of them in a few rounds of fighting with Wei Luan, the leader of the Guming Gang, and he was able to defeat him after fighting with Lu Youzi for a few rounds. Master Chen Zhai, I'm sorry to interrupt you first, you said that Fu Zhen only relied on the strength of one person to defeat several heads in a row, according to Yunxiang's understanding, Fu Zhen's junior brother really can't reach such a profound realm, even if they are all poisoned by the marrow, they shouldn't be able to fight a junior in their later years, which is difficult for me to accept. Xu Qing said: "Yes, Lord Lu Guan is very right, Master Chen, Miss Zhong, the one you see must be a certain supreme master who pretends to be Senior Brother Fu Zhen, Senior Brother Fu will never have such sword power, and he is good at using fists and palms, and does not often use swords, and the shallow water disciples are mainly practicing qigong." ”

Chen Zhaozhong and Liu Yan glanced at each other, secretly thinking that if they didn't tell the matter of the ancient sword now, the two of them would not believe it no matter what, and they were about to say more, but they saw Lin Jing and said: "That's the end of today, the cause of the death of the first master is tortuous and complicated, and it is not something that can be clarified in one sentence or two." ”

Before Xu Qing could say anything more, Lu Yunxiang blocked: "That's it, it's dark, let's talk about it tomorrow." ”

Xu Qing was puzzled, and Lu Yunxiang should also be extremely confused, how could it be a hasty finish, only to see Lu Ziang said: "Look, you are all hungry, I have already prepared dinner, just some home-cooked food, you will use some." Zhong Liuyan said: "Brother Lu is really polite. ”

A group of people came out of the house, Wyeth had already served the food, and several people sat on the stool and threw the spoon, during which they were silent, as if they had something on their minds, and they didn't want to say frankly, Lu Yunxiang secretly thought to himself, remembering that when he was in Qingshui Town, Xu Rin, the eldest disciple of the Guming Gang, was assassinated by a traitor, and Lu Yunqi suspected that there were hidden works in the rivers and lakes, and at that time, she could see from the sword marks in Xu Rin's corpse that he must have killed someone who knew him and had a lot to do with him. 520

Moreover, this sword mark is quite strange, the mark is deep and the mouth is wide, the sword of the sword held by the perpetrator is by no means comparable to ordinary swords, only Chen Zhao and Zhong Liuyan said that when Fu Zhen held the sword and fought to the death with the head of the faction, it seemed that he deliberately concealed it, Lu Yunxiang was puzzled, and thought that he would have to ask the truth later.

Xu Qing didn't believe that Fu Zhen would kill the head of the sect and the heads of the factions plus the children of the rivers and lakes, and no matter if Fu Zhen couldn't do it, even if he was superb in martial arts, he really had the ability to slash the sky and the earth, with his honest temperament, how could he do it.

Thinking like this, everyone has finished eating, Lu Ziang led a few to his cousin's house Lu Zishen's house to sleep, Peng Yulan brought dinner and decoction into Peng Yushan's house, fed medicine to fill her stomach, Peng Yushan heard that Lord Lu had passed away, although it was none of her business, but she also sighed lightly, Peng Yulan said: "Yushan, the cause of death of Lord Lu has Xu Qing and they investigated, you don't need to worry about it, you have to pay attention to your body." Peng Yushan said: "What is written in the note that Brother Xu gave you? Peng Yulan said: "Didn't Xu Qing tell you? It's not a big deal, you also heard it, that is, go to the Void Mountain to pick a herb, bring it back and give it to Mr. Shenyin, and then make it into medicine, let you take it, and the weak disease on your body can be completely cured. Peng Yushan said: "My sister has paid too much for me, if I can be saved here, then this gentleman can be regarded as saving me from fire and water, why would my sister not give Brother Xu a good face so much, if he didn't bring his sister here, although it was a twist and turn, but it was also a bright future." Peng Yulan said: "Sister, sister hopes that you don't have the slightest thought about Xu Qing, this person is different from you and me after all, he is the prince of the previous dynasty, in the current court, in the eyes of Emperor Liang, Xu Qing is by no means a noble royal bloodline, but a remnant of the old dynasty, in the future, he will definitely be chased and killed by the military horses of the entire Liang court, this person has a bad fate, and will bring you endless disasters." Peng Yushan said: "There is a dark nightmare behind his father to protect him, and at the moment the saint does not know, Xiao Song does not know, Brother Xu is worry-free for the time being, even if his life experience is investigated in the future, with his father, he will definitely protect Brother Xu." Peng Yulan said: "My stupid sister, although this dark night is all over the north and south, and it is in the dark, protecting Xu Qing anytime and anywhere, but the paper can't contain the fire after all, if the entire Northern Court is against Xu Qing, once Emperor Liang issues a holy decree, no matter where Xu Qing goes in the future, even if it is the home of ordinary people, he will not get absolute security, and one person plus 10,000 dark nightmares will definitely not be able to withstand the entire Liang Dynasty." Peng Yushan hurriedly said: "Sister, then you should think of saving Brother Xu, can't you bear to watch him fall into the deep valley step by step, and you can't extricate yourself?" Peng Yulan said: " If this person is a confidant and a self-confessor, then it's okay, when I was in Yudi Mountain, I talked to him, this Xu Qing didn't know it at all, and he couldn't see the situation he was in at all, and he said awe-inspiring What kind of husband was born between heaven and earth, how can he be controlled by people, threatening to be chic and arbitrary, I do my own thing, you said that such a person who does not know how to restrain himself will definitely be a puppet used by others in the future, either chased and killed, or bewitched by others. Peng Yushan said: "It can be seen that sister, you have to worry more." Peng Yulan said: "Why, just because he gave you a chance to survive this time?" Peng Yushan said: "Sister, for so many days, Brother Xu has been with us in life and death, and that day at home, Brother Xu is desperately protecting me, Brother Xu has long been a friend and companion of you and me, and you and I cannot sit idly by on this alone." ”

Peng Yulan sighed and said, "Eh, how many crazy men and women in this world, like my sister, I don't know whether it will be a blessing or a curse in the future." ”

The two talked for a long time, and the day finally came night.

But it was said that in the east of the city, Ye Yun's head Ye Ji inquired about the scene in the city, but there was no investigation at all, just sitting in an inn drinking tea and making cups, and after a while, I saw a black shadow running out of the window, the black shadow wore a mask, wiped his forehead, pinned a sword scabbard around his waist, and wore a gold-patterned scarf around his sleeve, which was a nightmare.

The dark nightmare said: "I don't know how to be in charge, and my subordinates are not welcome." Ye Ji said: "Needless to say, the old man returned here this time to ask His Highness about his safety." The Nightmare replied: "Don't worry, your Highness is safe, and the brothers will take care of him day and night to prevent His Highness from being harmed at all." Ye Ji said: "Then where is His Highness now?" Dark Nightmare said: "This ....." Ye Ji said angrily: "Aren't you taking care of it day and night? Why don't you even know His Highness's whereabouts?" The head of the house forgives the sin, I have been paying attention, but His Royal Highness vowed to return to Taihu Lake, and secretly escaped from southern Anhui from Yudi Mountain without permission, I waited for the nightmare to lurk day and night, and yesterday His Royal Highness had been intercepted, how could Lu Yunxiang and Peng Yulan stop it, so that His Highness escaped, but just now he fought with Lu Yunxiang and Peng Yulan for dozens of rounds, and wanted to lead His Highness to appear, but His Highness delayed the future, and I received the news that the head of the house had arrived here, so he stopped fighting and withdrew. Ye Ji said: "Where is your Nightmare Lord now, call me to see me, now His Highness's life history is top secret, if it is known by the people in the court, it will cause a lot of trouble, so His Highness's whereabouts must be controlled in our own hands." The dark nightmare suddenly said: "Master, there is another thing, that is, Lin Jing and Lu Yunqi also came here to support Lu Yunxiang and Peng Yulan, I don't know if you have seen the two of them?" Ye Ji exclaimed: "You said that Lord Lin Guan and Miss Lu?"

Nightmare nodded yes.

Ye Ji pondered for a moment and said, "It's nothing for you here, you can retreat first." ”

Dark Nightmare clenched his fists and said, "Subordinates retire." ”

Running out of the window, Ye Ji walked out of the door, went downstairs to settle the silver taels, and then went out of the stack to one place, and after a while entered another inn, Wu went upstairs, walked to a guest room and knocked on the door, there was a sound of walking in the house, and then the door of the back room was opened, and a person appeared in the house, and that person was Lu Yunqi.

When Lu Yunqi saw Ye Ji, he said happily: "Master Ye, you are back, come into the house quickly." ”

Hurriedly opened the door of the house, Ye Ji stepped into the house, Lu Yunqi closed the door again, Lin Jing was sitting on the bench in the house, Ye Ji was also sitting on the bench, Lu Yunqi poured tea into the cup, handed it to Ye Ji and said: "Master, I have been waiting for you with the Lord for a long time." Ye Ji said: "What do you two have to wait for me?" Lin Jing said: "Just now, I met Lord Lu Guan and Master Xu's nephew, and the second lady of the Peng family, Peng Yulan, and the three of them. Ye Ji exclaimed: "Why are they here?" Lin Jing said: "I don't know the specific details, but Senior Xu's nephew came to look for Master Ye." Ye Ji said: "What are you looking for me to do?" Lu Yunqi said: "Naturally, I am worried about the safety of my master." ”
