Outside the capital, go north to the side of the road and go to the ten mile long pavilion.

The Great Yan Dynasty ruled the Qingming Dynasty for decades, and built many straight roads to the north to connect the cities in the north.

Since ancient times, there is the new and the old.

The path here has been abandoned since the straight road was built, and it has long been dilapidated and overgrown with weeds after decades of wind and rain.

Today, however, there are people waiting.

He didn't have to wait long.

The man who made him wait, his robes fluttering in the wind, flew down in the gazebo with his books.

Chen Songfeng raised his left hand, and the book flew back into his hand.

Although he has cooperated with the person in front of him several times, and even wants to cooperate in the future, Chen Songfeng's eyes are still a little disliked.

This person is the leader of the Great Yan Ryushi, and maybe from today this person will be removed from the Ryushi, but presumably there will not be many.

This person's name is Yan Zishi, although the name is very good, but the person is not very good.

This is also the reason why Chen Songfeng does not like it.

Yan Zishi shook off his sleeves, dragged a seal wrapped in a book in his hand, and said, "Give me an explanation." ”

The book in Chen Songfeng's hand slowly flipped in the wind, and the three pages wrapped in the seal immediately flew back into the book, tightly sealed.

Chen Songfeng said indifferently: "If you kill him, you won't be able to continue the rest of the matter, besides, I don't want to kill anyone." ”

As soon as Yan Zishi flipped his hand, the jade seal disappeared, and he said in a cold voice with a strange yin and yang: "Ridiculous reason, I want to set up an archway when I am a bitch!

Chen Songfeng's eyes shrank slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Pay attention to your words!"

The already unharmonious atmosphere in the gazebo was instantly cold.

After being silent for a long time, Yan Zishi suddenly asked, "Since you don't want to kill people, why did you agree to do this? This is not like the style of your Confucian monks. ”

Chen Songfeng looked at the withered grass outside the pavilion, his eyes narrowed slightly, and said, "I only promise to help and kill people, that's your business." ”

Yan Zishi was slightly stunned, and then smiled meaningfully: "It turned out to be a return of favors." The most difficult thing in the world is to repay the favors, let alone the cultivators, I don't know how long the left resignation will let you pay back?"

Chen Songfeng did not answer this question.

Scholars pay attention to the spirit of the mind, and the wind is fast for thousands of miles. However, when you enter the WTO to study, you will eventually be stumped by some things and become an unspeakable hidden in your heart.

Just as Yan Zishi guessed, he, Chen Songfeng, did owe back the favor of the Yue Peak Lord of Yuanshan Town.

And owed for many years.

At that time, he was just a poor scholar, and when he went to Beijing to catch the exam, he stayed overnight in a broken temple in the suburbs, and was haunted by ghost foxes.

The grace of saving lives should be repaid by the spring.

didn't expect that when he needed to pay him back, he killed people for Zuo Ci.

Is it really a life for a life?

Although Yan Zishi's thoughts are evil, some of his words are very realistic.

This favor, when will it be returned.

Maybe it's once, maybe it's a lifetime, or maybe it's a lifetime.

Chen Songfeng didn't know.

Suddenly, in the woods outside the pavilion, a bird jumped up, and then the whole flock of birds flew away.

Chen Songfeng looked at the woods, retracted his contemplation, and said, "Why did you promise him?"

Yan Zishi looked at the flock of frightened birds, frowned, and said, "Naturally, wealth is in danger. ”

Such an answer made Chen Songfeng a little surprised.

Yan Zishi, as the leader of the Great Yan Fulongshi, is basically above 10,000 people under one person, and this kind of wealth is something that countless people in the world can't ask for, but he gave up easily under Zuo Ci's letter, so what he asked for was obviously not ordinary wealth.

Chen Songfeng is light

He said: "How rich and noble, you need to fight with your life?"

Yan Zishi turned his head to look at him and said with a frank smile: "Lord of the First Peak, breaking through the realm and entering the sky, is this kind of wealth enough?"

Chen Songfeng's eyes shrank slightly, and he was extremely shocked in his heart.

A casual cultivator enters the master to return to the master of a peak in Yuanshan, how big is Zuo's plot?

He turned his head to look north, with some regret.

Yan Zishi smiled and said, "Now that you are in the game, you and I are both chess pieces, and thinking too much will not do you any good." ”

Chen Songfeng said: "Since you want to be different, then do your own thing." ”

The corners of Yan Zishi's mouth twitched, "It should be like this." ”

While talking, an orange-red civet cat ran out of the forest, jumped to Yan Zishi's side, and climbed on his shoulder.

Chen Songfeng looked at this civet cat, his eyes were slightly cold, and said, "Evil animal!"

The tanuki stretched out its paws and licked at its mouth, staring at the reader with its cold vertical pupils, flashing a thick color of longing, as if it had seen a fat big fish.

Yan Zishi turned his face sideways to look at the tanuki and reached out to caress the top of the tanuki's head.

Such a scene is very warm to watch.

But Chen Songfeng knew that this person and cat were extremely dangerous.

He smelled the faint smell of blood on the tanuki's body, and said to Yan Zishi: "Let your cat be at ease, stealing some incense objects can be regarded as invisible, if you let me see the cannibalism again, you know the consequences!"

Yan Zishi turned his head, his eyes narrowed slightly, and said with a smile: "You won't have a chance to see it." ”

Chen Songfeng snorted coldly, turned around and walked out of the pavilion, and went to the mountains and forests, like a scholar's spring outing, taking a leisurely stroll.

Yan Zishi gently scratched the civet cat's chin and said softly: "Don't eat too much, the good things are behind." ”

Tanuki's eyes narrowed, and it was very comfortable.

......

......

Dayan Palace, in front of Kuntai Palace.

The people on the stairs had long since been taken away, and even the ruins of the collapsed Kuntai Hall had been swept away, leaving a wide platform.

The palace wall on the periphery of the square is still collapsing, not because it is ignored, but because the Dayan Imperial Court at this time can't draw too many manpower.

At this time, they were handling the funeral of the first emperor and the enthronement of the new emperor.

Although this panic alarmed the entire upper capital, it did not affect here at all, and there were still two people resting on and under the stone monument, and no one bothered them.

Yuan Tai held the flask aloft high, and the last drop of wine fell into his mouth.

Through this drop, he saw that someone was approaching, it was a woman.

Yuantai stood up, patted the ashes on his body, raised his head and said, "Young master, the wine is gone, the old slave goes to get a pot of wine, and you talk slowly." ”

With that, he turned around and left, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Ning Baifeng opened his eyes, looked at the woman who walked in, was slightly stunned, and then jumped off the mountain and river monument.

It was none other than Princess Xiyan.

Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere was a little cold and a little awkward.

Princess Xiyan looked at the white-clothed young man in front of her, her eyes were very complicated, he slowly raised his hand, took off the veil on his face, and revealed an extremely beautiful face.

The skin that can be broken by blowing, the clear and bright pupils, the long eyelashes tremble slightly under the curved willow eyebrows, the face is like ice, and the temperament is cold, like an empty valley orchid, quiet and beautiful.

Looking at this face, Ning Baifeng suddenly had the idea of calling Nie Hongzhu out and comparing himself with him.

Princess Xiyan was not used to being stared at like this, a trace of blush appeared on her cheeks, and her eyes drooped slightly.

She was a little shy.

The breeze blows the orchid, containing the fragrance of the garden.

Ning Baifeng looked away, took a deep breath, and asked

"What's the matter?"

The stiff atmosphere was broken.

Princess Xiyan raised her eyes to look at him and said, "I ......"

As a woman, there are some things she can't say.

Ning Baifeng's heart jumped, and he remembered the bet he made with the old emperor before he died.

Once again, the atmosphere was awkward.

The breeze stirred their robes.

After a long time, Princess Xiyan plucked up the courage to say what she wanted.

"I don't want to marry you. ”

Hearing this, Ning Baifeng was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and finally let go of his hanging heart.

Ning Baifeng nodded and said, "Okay." ”

Princess Xiyan's eyes widened slightly, she didn't expect things to be so easy.

But she quickly remembered the purpose of her visit, and continued, "I don't want to be a handmaid either." ”

Ning Baifeng said, "I already have a sword attendant. ”

Princess Xiyan continued: "I don't want to be a slave. ”

Ning Baifeng shook his head and said, "I don't need slaves. ”

Princess Xiyan said, "I don't want to be a servant even more. ”

Ning Baifeng smiled bitterly: "It's better not to do it, you always get into trouble." ”

All the questions were answered as desired, and Princess Xiyan's face bloomed with brilliant brilliance, like an empty valley orchid blooming in an instant.

Ning Baifeng looked slightly stunned, then coughed lightly and said, "Then what do you want to do?"

Princess Xiyan immediately came back to her senses and felt a little out of shape.

But he still couldn't hide the joy in his heart, and said with a smile: "I want to fly, I want to see everything in the world, I want to go farther to see." ”

Ning Baifeng shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it won't work." ”

Princess Xiyan's smile suddenly froze on her face, her eyes frightened, and her face turned pale.

Seeing this scene, Ning Baifeng knew that he had said the wrong thing, and immediately explained: "I mean, with your cultivation in the lower three realms, it is impossible to fly at all, unless you take the immortal ferry." ”

Princess Xiyan let out a long sigh of relief.

In just a few words, she experienced several ups and downs, and her mood was difficult to calm down.

Princess Xiyan said: "I know all this, I just don't want to stay in this palace anymore. I've read a lot of books, and I want to see what a talented and beautiful woman is, and what it means to ride a horse with a sword. What is the night judgment of the gods of the mountains and rivers, and what is the food and drink and the wind travel. ”

The more she talked, the more excited she became, these were no longer unattainable dreams.

Ning Baifeng looked at this little daughter's appearance and sighed softly.

He'd seen all of these things, but he never found them so interesting.

Princess Xiyan looked at Ning Baifeng, saluted deeply, and said, "Xie Ning's son is very gracious." ”

Ning Baifeng smiled and shook his head.

In his opinion, this is a solution to his own trouble.

Princess Xiyan turned around and left with a smile, and after taking a few steps, she turned around and smiled: "Young Master Ning, my name is Ji Zhilan, and Xiyan is just my title." ”

After saying that, he ran away happily and disappeared behind the palace.

Yuan Tai turned out from behind the stone tablet, shook his head and said: "It's a pity, such a good orchid, young master, you are willing to let go, I really don't know how to appreciate it." ”

Ning Baifeng turned his head and said angrily: "You understand?"

Yuan Tai rubbed his chin and said with a smile: "The old slave's turtle grandson doesn't know much anymore, do you say I understand." ”

Ning Baifeng was about to kick.

Yuan Tai didn't dodge, pointed to the distance with the wine jug, and said, "More trouble is coming, do you need the old slave to avoid it." ”

At the corner on the other side of the Kuntai Palace, a line of figures turned out.

The young man at the head wears mourning clothes.
