There was a dead silence in the dark room, so quiet that Liu Xunyi could almost hear his heartbeat.

Liu Xunyi reached the door with his back, raised his sword and pointed directly at the black shadow in the corner, his cold eyes exuded a faint essence in the dark night, he did not act rashly after shouting, but listened carefully to the every move of the uninvited guest, so as not to respond to all changes.

"Liu Xunyi. ”

The uninvited guest didn't seem to have any intention of making a move, even in the face of Liu Xunyi's sword, he still behaved surprisingly calm, like a sculpture, standing motionless in the dark, silently watching him.

The familiar voice made Liu Xunyi stunned, he slowly put down the sword, frowned slightly and walked forward, every step was cautious, and at the same time asked: "Who are you?" It's a pity that this uninvited guest didn't want to answer him, Liu Xunyi's voice was like a stone sinking into the sea, and there was no response at all.

Walking slowly to the table, Liu Xunyi's eyes were still staring at the figure in the corner, his hands were groping around on the table, and with a soft sound of "snort", the suddenly lit candle flame suddenly illuminated the dark room, and it was dark and yellow.

The face of the uninvited guest quietly appeared in the candlelight, it was the ruthless swordsman who had fought with Liu Xunyi in Quanzhou, Tang Afu.

"Is that you?"

Liu Xunyi never expected that the late-night visitor would be him, so the sword he wanted to put away was raised in front of him again, staring at Tang Afu cautiously, and said tentatively: "You chased here, didn't you want to avenge Quanzhou?"

"Hatred?" Tang Afu's eyes were calm, and there was no trace of emotion in his tone, and he replied lightly, "The person I want to kill is Shen Dongshan, what kind of enmity do I have with you? What's more, if I want to kill you, how can I let you live until now?"

Although Tang Afu's words were quite polite, there was some truth in it, if Tang Afu really came to kill Liu Xunyi tonight, then he would have done it as early as when he had just entered the door, so with Tang Afu's martial arts, why wait until Liu Xunyi fully reacted?

"Then you are ......"

"I'm here tonight to tell you two things. Tang Afu said straight to the point, "When I was in Quanzhou, although you stopped me, you finally let me go in front of Zhong Limu. If you had promised to let Zhong Limu make a move at that time, I would have been unable to get out of the way. ”

Liu Xunyi shook his head as if he didn't understand: "Your grudge with Shen Dongshan has nothing to do with me, so why should I embarrass you......?"

"I have never owed anything to anyone in my life. Tang Afujing interrupted Liu Xunyi's words and said lightly, "You once let me go, and I will return this favor to you, so that I don't owe you anything." ”

"That's the first thing you want to tell me?" Liu Xunyi smiled dumbly, then put away his sword, and asked with interest, "Then how are you going to repay me this favor?"

A cold light flashed in Tang Afu's eyes, and he said faintly: "There is a person...... His name is Feng Tianba, he is an official, do you know him?"

Liu Xunyi nodded undeniably and said, "Could it be that you also know him?"

"Since you left Pingjiang Mansion, this person has been secretly following you, and now he lives in the Longfu Inn opposite. Saying that, Tang Afu also turned his head and glanced out the window, Longfu Inn is located at the other corner of the three-way intersection, and Long'an and Longxiang are at each other's edges.

Liu Xunyi was shocked and asked, "Why did he follow me?"

"I don't know. Tang Afu said bluntly, "But this person is hiding behind you, sneaky, I don't think it's for any good thing." ”

"This ......"

"But you don't need to worry. Without waiting for Liu Xunyi to speak, Tang Afu already said to himself, "I will solve this tail for you tonight, which can be regarded as a favor for you." ”

Liu Xunyi's eyes were strange and thoughtful, and he asked casually, "How are you going to solve him?"

Hearing this, a look of pride appeared on Tang Afu's face, and he snorted lightly: "Don't worry, if I take action, he will not survive tomorrow." ”

"Never!" Liu Xunyi hurriedly objected, and at the same time, his eyes were full of surprise and horror.

Tang Afu didn't seem to expect Liu Xunyi to have such a reaction, and couldn't help but be stunned, and said suspiciously: "Why can't he? Sooner or later, he will be a disaster for you......

"That's my business, too. Liu Xunyi admired the upright Feng Tianba very much in his heart, but he couldn't tell Tang Afu directly, so he had to bite the bullet and say strongly, "Maybe he doesn't have any ill will towards me...... Anyway, you can't kill him, and I don't need you to deal with him for me. ”

The look of astonishment on Tang Afu's face flashed, and he shook his head indifferently and said, "It's your business if you want to or not, but I must kill him and return your favor." ”

Liu Xunyi didn't expect that there would be such a dead-eyed person as Tang Afu in the world, so he couldn't cry or laugh for a while, and hurriedly explained: "You don't owe me any favors, and you don't have to do anything for me." What's more, it may not be a good thing for me to kill him if you kill him......" At this point, Liu Xunyi hurriedly defended, "I mean Feng Tianba is an official messenger, he must be acting on orders to follow me, if he dies in Huodu for no reason, then wouldn't my trouble be even greater?"

Tang Afu looked at Liu Xunyi thoughtfully, and was silent for a while before he spoke: "Whether you are in trouble or not is your business, and it has nothing to do with me." How to repay your favor is my business, and it has nothing to do with you. I owe nothing to anyone, and I owe you the same. In short, I will definitely kill him for you, whether you need it or not, as soon as Feng Tianba dies, we will settle it. ”

"Are you so unreasonable?" Liu Xunyi had never seen someone so forced to repay his debts, and in a hurry, he didn't know how to persuade the obsessed Tang Afu, only feeling angry and ridiculous, but helpless.

However, Liu Xunyi knew that Tang Afu was famous, since he said it, he would definitely do what he said, if he really left here, Feng Tianba would definitely die tonight.

"That ......" Liu Xunyi pondered the wording repeatedly, trying to restrain his emotions, and said slowly, "If you really want to repay me this favor, then please let Feng Tianba go, as long as you don't kill him, let's clear up, how about it?"

Tang Afu frowned slightly, and asked rhetorically, "Why do you insist on saving him? He is now against you." ”

"When I rescued the White Frost Girl from you in Quanzhou that day, weren't you also working against me? You even used a killing move to kill me, but in the end I didn't let you go?" Liu Xunyi explained affectionately, "I don't insist on saving anyone, I just don't want to lead to disasters that have nothing to do with me." It was like this for you back then, and it's the same for Feng Tianba today. What's more, although Feng Tianba is secretly following me, he has not done anything unfavorable to me, how can you assert that he will definitely deal with me?"

Tang Afu seemed to be persuaded by Liu Xunyi, thought for a moment, and then nodded slowly: "I can promise you not to kill Feng Tianba tonight, but I will definitely pay you back." Since you want Feng Tianba to live, then I'll wait for him for three days. If he leaves Huodu after three days, I will let him go, but if he is still staring at you, I will take his life. ”

"Good. Liu Xunyi can be regarded as having learned Tang Afu's temper, this is already Tang Afu's last concession, if he gains another inch, he is afraid that it will backfire. What's more, in three days, Liu Xunyi was enough to persuade Feng Tianba to leave, and he could also take this opportunity to ask Feng Tianba why he wanted to follow him all the way.

"The first thing is said and done, now let's talk about the second thing. Tang Afu said slowly, as if he was speaking for others, expressionless, unhappy or angry, "I know that your purpose of coming to Huodu is not simple, but I can tell you clearly now that if you are here to frighten the wind and rain, then it is best to stop here." ”

"Why?" Liu Xunyi didn't expect Tang Afu to know about the Storm and Rain Map, but because he didn't know how much Tang Afu knew about it, he didn't take the liberty to argue, but asked tentatively, "What does the Wind and Rain Map have to do with you?"

Tang Afu's eyes were like water, staring at Liu Xunyi quietly, and after being silent for a long time, he said lightly: "The purpose of my coming to Huodu is to get the wind and rain map. ”

"Hiss!" Liu Xunyi was taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "You also want to frighten the wind and rain map? Why? Could it be that you are also interested in the legendary Jin Country Treasure and the Golden Feather Divine Skill?" or ......" Liu Xunyi suddenly changed his words and said cautiously, "Desperate Valley is interested in this picture?"

"Do you think I'll answer you?" Tang Afu scoffed at this, a sneer of disdain appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Did you really appear in Quanzhou that day just to assassinate Shen Dongshan? In fact, you were also for Mo Cen's shocking rain map, right? It's just that before you started, you were taken by the man in black, so Feng Tianba came to follow me, but you came to follow the man in black, yes or no?" Liu Xunyi thought about it before and after, and quickly figured out the key to it, so he opened his mouth and said with a smile, "Su Wen Desperate Valley has always been low-key in the rivers and lakes, even if it is regarded as a heresy by the martial arts heroes, he has never come forward to refute it, and it has been looming for so many years. It seems that you have only been married to the Xianwang Mansion, but you have no grudges with other martial arts sects, why are you suddenly interested in such a legendary thing as the Storm and Rain Diagram?"

Liu Xunyi's words are true, although the Valley of Despair is one of the four major pagan religions, it is far different from the other three sects, Tianshan Jade Dragon Palace, Longxiang Mountain and Peach Blossom Island have all killed innocents indiscriminately, and have ill intentions towards the Central Plains martial arts, from time to time they will jump out to cause trouble in the rivers and lakes, and they have also offended many decent people in the martial arts, so their three factions are deserved to be named pagans.

The Valley of Desperation is different, the Valley of Desperation has neither the ambition to dominate the martial arts, nor the actions of causing trouble in the rivers and lakes, and has been low-key for many years, even if there are occasional disciples in the valley who kill a few people in the rivers and lakes, it is not a big evil. But the Valley of Despair is still classified as one of the four great pagan religions, and the root cause of this is only because the Valley of Despair has offended the Xian Wangfu more than once.

Therefore, if the Jade Dragon Palace, Dragon Elephant Mountain, and Peach Blossom Island are notorious for offending the entire martial arts, then the Valley of Despair will be reduced to a paganism because they offended Luo Tianjin.

As for the grievances between the Valley of Despair and the Xianwang Mansion, no one knows. It is said that even Luo Tianjin himself doesn't know why he suddenly appeared in a desperate valley and opposes himself from time to time.

"I've already said what I'm going to say, so you're good at it. ”

Tang Afu didn't pay attention to Liu Xunyi's confusion, turned around and was about to leave, but Liu Xunyi asked first: "What if...... I mean, what if I want to get the Storm Map too?"

When Tang Afu heard this, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he said coldly: "If that's the case, then you are my mortal enemy." Not only will you end up with a frightening rain map, but you'll also lose your life. ”

"Are you threatening me?" Liu Xunyi smiled bitterly, "Didn't you still want to repay my favor just now?"

"If you don't kill Feng Tianba within three days, you will have already paid off your favor. Tang Afu said expressionlessly, "One thing is one thing, if you dare to get involved in my business, I will kill you." ”

Tang Afu's words finally aroused Liu Xunyi's anger, he stared at Tang Afu gloomily, and said with a smile: "Don't forget that I let you go in Quanzhou, not you let me go, if you can really kill me, I would have been killed a long time ago." ”

"It's your luck in Quanzhou. ”

"My luck won't be bad in Huodu. ”

"Then you want to give it a try?" Tang Afu's provocative gaze shot straight at Liu Xunyi like a sharp blade.

"Okay!" Liu Xunyi happily agreed, "If I'm also interested in the Storm and Rain Map, I don't mind competing with the ruthless swordsman." ”

"Are you interested?" Tang Afu raised his eyebrows and asked with interest.

"Who knows? maybe!"

After saying that, Liu Xunyi showed a harmless smile at Tang Afu.

Tang Afu glanced at Liu Xunyi deeply, but didn't say anything more. Suddenly he turned and jumped, flew out of the window, and disappeared into the night in the blink of an eye.
