On the tenth day of October, Pingliang Mansion, Hanxuan Building.

At night, Liu Xunyi held a jar of wine, sat alone by the window, overlooking the empty streets of Pingliang City by the railing, his eyes flickered brightly and darkly, and he didn't know what he was pondering.

"Bang, bang. ”

The sudden knock on the door dragged Liu Xunyi back from the "dream" to the "reality". Before he could get up to greet the guest, the closed door had been gently pushed open, and Xun Qin entered uninvited, still holding a letter in his hand

"Since returning from the Western Regions, you have been preoccupied and depressed. I didn't even eat dinner tonight, and only locked myself in my room to drink, what the hell is going on?" Xun Qin asked curiously as he walked towards Liu Xunyi, "Could it be that you are still blaming yourself for Tang Cong's death?" or...... Are you missing a beautiful woman from afar?"

Liu Xunyi smiled slightly, then picked up the wine jar and walked to the table, and said jokingly: "When did Miss Xunqin be so interested in my private affairs?"

"Because you are important to me. ”

Xun Qin's blurted out, which made Liu Xunyi stunned. She frowned slightly, and seemed to realize that she had made a mistake in her words, and hurriedly explained: "Don't forget the three chapters of the covenant between you and me. Right now, the matter of the Jade Dragon Palace has been completed, and the relationship between the King of Shaoqin and the King of Beixian is undoubtedly further, at this juncture, I don't want you to be sideways. ”

Liu Xunyi smiled bitterly: "You're too worried." I also hope that King Beixian will sit on the throne of the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance smoothly, and he will never lose the overall situation because of his own selfishness. ”

"That's good!" Xun Qin nodded with satisfaction, then his eyes moved, and he said suspiciously, "Before entering Pingliang, you know that there is a Hanxuan Tower in the city, have you been here before?"

"Not only did I come here, but I almost died here. ”

Liu Xunyi laughed at himself, and at the same time, scenes of the past came to his mind again. Although he didn't say much, Xun Qin could still feel a strong sense of melancholy from his tone.

"What can make a man so sad is nothing more than fame and fortune and women. Xun Qin asked meaningfully, "Lord Liumen has never forgotten this place, I don't know if it is for the 'handkerchief' or the 'golden hairpin'?"

In the past in the Tianshan Mountains, Liu Xunyi once left a last word to Xun Qin, in which the handkerchief refers to Zhao Xin who is far away in Lin'an. The golden hairpin refers to the hoarfrost of Quanzhou Sushui Pavilion.

The person who once set a trap in Hanxuan Tower and almost killed Liu Xunyi was Bai Shuang.

At that time, Bai Shuang was ordered by Lu Tingxiang to follow Liu Xunyi all the way to Pingliang City in order to deceive the wind and rain map. Sikong Zhu secretly laid a net of heaven and earth, wanting to ask people to take it all in. Fortunately, Bai Shuang had a thought of benevolence, so Liu Xunyi took precautions early and used a trick to transfer flowers and trees, so that he could escape.

Revisiting the old place today, it is inevitable to see things and think about people, which makes Liu Xunyi think thousands of thoughts and sad.

Although he and Baishuang have drawn a clear line, the longing for Liu Xunyu in his heart has already turned into an unbreakable knot, making him secretly entangled with Baishuang, who is seven points similar to Liu Xunyu, and it is difficult to let go.

Seeing that Liu Xunyi looked lonely and didn't say a word, Xun Qin's eyes couldn't help but change slightly, and then handed the letter in his hand to him, and said with relief: "That's it! Since the lord of Liumen doesn't like outsiders to inquire about his private affairs, then let's talk about some official affairs." ”

"It's ......"

"A letter from King Beixian. Xun Qin explained, "Something happened in Jiangzhou. ”

Liu Xunyi was shocked, hurriedly took the letter, and hurriedly read it. After a moment, the melancholy on his face had disappeared, replaced by a thick sense of solemnity.

"How?" Xun Qin said curiously, "What do you think of the contents of the letter?"

"First, in order to solve the danger of the Desperate Valley, the mansion lord did not hesitate to oppose the Kunlun faction, and it was expected that the relationship between the mansion lord and the ruthless valley lord must be extraordinary. Liu Xunyi speculated, "Second, Jin Fuyu Yue Yue is acting on behalf of the Kunlun faction, but in fact, he wants to take the opportunity to win over and suppress the prestige of the mansion lord in the rivers and lakes." Third, Yin Baimei, the head of the Kunlun faction, did not obstruct Jin Fuyu's sideways, but instead of obstructing it, he pretended to be deaf and dumb, pushing the boat along the river, as if he was dissatisfied with the Xianwang Mansion, and even ...... Heterocentric. ”

Looking at Liu Xunyi, who was convincing in his words, Xun Qin bowed slightly, and answered: "Fourth, Jin Fuyu asked you to go to Jiangzhou to save people, as if you have ulterior motives. The reason why he 'cares' you so much is most likely due to your trip to the Western Regions, and you single-handedly ruined his good deeds. ”

"That makes sense. Liu Xunyi nodded undeniably and said, "To be precise, since the beginning of the competition for the 'Stormy Rain Map', I have repeatedly sabotaged the plan of the Golden Sword Dock. Jin Fuyu is an old man, and he will repay him, I have repeatedly broken his good deeds, how can he not hate me to the bone?"

"There's one more section. Although I don't know what the relationship between Jian Zhong and Jin Fuyu is, he can go deep into Tibet for Jin Fuyu without fear of life and death, which shows that the two have a great friendship. ”

"What do you mean...... Jin Fuyu wants to avenge Jian Zhong?"

"Highly likely!"

"Why?"

"If you talk about destroying Jin Fuyu's good deeds, you Liu Xunyi is definitely not the first, nor the last, nor the most eye-catching. Jin Fuyu can achieve today's status in the rivers and lakes, and there are also many enemies and friends, countless. If he is a narrow-minded person, I am afraid that it is not appropriate. Xun Qin analyzed, "But he doesn't target anyone, but he just names you Liu Xunyi, don't you think that Jin Fuyu's move is very contradictory to his introverted character of Taoguang and obscurity, knowing honor and humiliation?"

"What do you mean...... What really angered him was not that I ruined his good deeds, but that I killed Jian Zhong?"

"That's right!" Xun Qin's eyes flickered, and he said faintly, "Jian Zhong must be extremely important to Jin Fuyu, otherwise he would never have made such a reckless move." ”

"What is their relationship?" Liu Xunyi's back couldn't help but feel a chill, and he muttered to himself, "The two of them have no relatives and no reason, even if Jin Fuyu has a life-saving grace for Jian Zhong, he won't care so much about him......?"

"Unless what?"

"Unless Jian Zhong has great value for Jin Fuyu. Liu Xunyi said in a deep voice, "Losing Jian Zhong is like cutting off one of his arms." Only in this way would Jin Fuyu be so angry. ”

"Use value ......" Xun Qindai frowned slightly, and pondered, "Jian Zhong is not from Jin Jianwu, nor is he among the four masters, what is his value to Jin Fuyu?"

As for this, Xun Qin's eyes suddenly lit up, and he boldly speculated: "Could it be that outside of Jin Jianwu, what conspiracy is still brewing in secret? And this matter is inconvenient for the people of Jin Jianwu to directly intervene, so he handed it over to Jian Zhong, who seemed to have nothing to do with Jin Jianwu, and let him act secretly." In this way, Jin Fuyu used Jin Jianwu to hide people's eyes and ears, so that his secret conspiracy could be carried out smoothly. ”

"Ming Xiu plank road, dark Chen Cang!" Liu Xunyi exclaimed, "Not long ago, when Qingcheng, Emei, and Xianwang's Mansion gradually drifted apart and fell to Jin Jianwu, I boldly suspected that Jin Fuyu might have some hidden strength that few people knew about. And these secrets hidden outside Jin Jianwu may be Jin Fuyu's magic weapon for winning in the martial arts conference. You say, will Jian Zhong have anything to do with this?"

Liu Xunyi's bold speculation is undoubtedly a hammer to the Central Plains martial arts. If what he said is true, the true strength of Jin Jianwu is far from being as simple as it seems on the surface.

According to the pattern of the rivers and lakes, the strength of the Xianwang Mansion is far above that of Jinjianwu, but why are Qingcheng and Emei easily shaken, and even defect on the verge of battle? On the other hand, the four great families are loyal to Jin Fuyu, and no matter how Luo Tianjin separates, they will never be able to shake their relationship with Jinjianwu.

Connecting all these seemingly accidental things together, and then boldly doubting and pondering carefully, Liu Xunyi and Xun Qin couldn't help but feel a burst of fear and coldness.

"It seems that we underestimated Jin Fuyu too much before. Xun Qin muttered solemnly, "If it weren't for you getting rid of Jian Zhong by mistake, I'm afraid that until the day of the martial arts conference, we wouldn't have noticed Jin Fuyu's strangeness." ”

"Jian Zhong's death must have had a great impact on Jin Fuyu. Liu Xunyi said in a condensed voice, "Otherwise, he will never show his feet." ”

"Showing the horse'......s feet," Xun frowned, as if he was thinking hard, "The deceased is gone, and even if he takes revenge, he can't be resurrected." Jin Fuyu is extremely smart, will he really show his feet because of a momentary mood?"

Liu Xunyi was surprised: "Do you think that Jin Fuyu didn't come to me to be angry for a while?"

Hearing this, Xun Qinru drank it as if he was in the head, and he was empowered, and a look of unbelievable epiphany instantly welled up on his face.

"Xun Qin, you ......"

"Liu Xunyi!" Xun Qinmei's eyes turned, she looked at Liu Xunyi meaningfully, and said faintly, "Jin Fuyu named you by name, not necessarily to take your life and avenge Jian Zhong." ”

"What do you mean?" Liu Xunyi perked up, but his mind was chaotic.

"Do you remember the jokes between us?" Xun Qin said with a deep smile, "In a short period of time, he has become famous all over the world." Looking at today's martial arts, the only legendary person who can have a similar experience to you is Jian Zhong. You once boasted that 'you practice a hundred schools of kung fu, learn from the strengths of a thousand schools, know everything in the south and the north, know all the bows, horses, swords and arrows', and Jian Zhong once said that 'your martial arts are the strengths of a hundred schools, all the fists and feet and blades, and all the secret weapons and light skills'...... Don't you realize that you have many similarities with the famous 'Nine Lives'?"

"This ......"

"Although outsiders don't know your true identity, I know that Lord Liu is a henchman of the imperial court. Xun Qin said with a smile, "Thinking about it this way, you and Jian Zhong are more similar." ”

"What exactly do you want to say?"

Liu Xunyi seemed to hear a hint from Xun Qin's words, but his thoughts were like catching wind and shadows, making him elusive.

"I mean...... Although Jian Zhong died, Jin Fuyu's secret conspiracy would never end easily. Xun Qin thought for a moment and replied slowly, "Therefore, I suspect that Jin Fuyu came to you by name with the intention of letting you succeed Jian Zhong and complete Jian Zhong's secret errand for him. ”

"This ...... Is it possible?" Liu Xunyi smacked his tongue in surprise.

"I don't know. Xun Qin shrugged his shoulders lightly and said with a wry smile, "Since it's speculation, why not be bolder?"

"It is said that blessings are incomparable, and disasters are not one-way, but I never expected that my Liu Xunyi would turn into a hot character with bare hands. Liu Xunyi laughed at himself, his face full of bitterness.

"Fu Wushuang is hot?" Xun Qin was thoughtful, and instantly heard the flaws in Liu Xunyi's words, and asked, "What's the matter? Could it be that in addition to Jin Fuyu, there are other people who are interested in the Lord of Liumen...... Hungry?"

Liu Xunyi couldn't help but be stunned, and sighed in her heart that Xun Qin was really smart, and she would be cautious in her words and deeds in front of her in the future. If you slack off, you will see through your mind and see your secrets at a glance.

"I'm not afraid of your jokes, in fact, Ren Wuya has also ...... me" As for this, Liu Xunyi suddenly changed his words and swore solemnly, "No matter what, I will never turn my back on Lord Luofu." ”

"That's nature. Xun Qin Yin Yang smiled weirdly, "The imperial court only let you sneak into the Xianwang Mansion, and did not let you infiltrate the Jade Dragon Palace." ”

In the face of Xun Qin's ridicule and sarcasm, Liu Xunyi could only force a smile and not entangle.

"Lord Luofu made it clear in the letter that it is up to you to choose where to go. Xun Qin looked furious, and said, "What? Do you plan to go south to Jiangzhou, or go east to Luoyang?"

Liu Xunyi chuckled and said, "The letter written by the lord of the mansion is here, can I still choose?"

"You have just made a great contribution to the Xianwang Mansion, so if you don't go to Jiangzhou, the Lord of the Luo Mansion will not blame. ”

"That's it!" Liu Xunyi sighed, then his eyes straightened, and he said faintly, "Even if it is not for the order of the mansion master, just to explore the secret of Jin Fuyu, I will go to Jiangzhou this time!"

Xun Qinliu raised his eyebrows lightly, and said jokingly: "This time to Jiangzhou is isolated and helpless, aren't you afraid that there will be no return?"

"Tubo is not afraid, why is Jiangzhou afraid?"
