Li Qiufeng slowly held the handle of the knife with his right hand, and said in a deep voice: "Sure enough, it's you!"

The man was extremely tall and thin, wearing a long robe, holding an umbrella in his right hand, and he was the old man who took a young man to the lama temple to chase and kill Murong Danyan that day.

Zhao Zhen saw the old man appear, calmly dusted off his clothes, and said to the old man: "Old man, please leave the matter here to you." ”

The old man nodded, and Zhao Zhen turned his head to Li Qiufeng and said, "Lord Li, we have to see you again in the next life." After saying that, he smiled, turned around and walked towards the rosewood bookshelf.

The rosewood bookshelf was very delicate, but there were not many things on the shelves. In addition to a few books, there is an inkstone and several large pens hanging on it. Zhao Zhen walked to the bookshelf, stretched out his hand and pressed it lightly on the inkstone, only to hear a loud "Titika" sound, and a stone door appeared on the wall on the right side of the stone room.

Zhao Zhen walked in first, and the military attachés under Shaobu and Sang Liangtian followed closely behind him. Zhuang Hengyun and Xu Yingyang glanced at Li Qiufeng, and then followed. After the remaining six or seven Tsing Yi people carried two wooden boxes into the stone gate, the stone gate closed again, and there was no trace of the stone gate on the wall.

The old man walked five steps in front of Cheng Qiufeng, stopped, and said to Li Qiufeng: "Your martial arts are very good, why don't you help Zhao Zhen do things?"

Li Qiufeng said: "Your martial arts are very good, why do you want to help Zhao Zhen do things?"

The old man smiled slightly and said, "Zhao Zhen, what kind of thing is he, you want me to help him do things?"

Li Qiufeng said: "That's right." What kind of thing is Zhao Zhen, who wants me to help him do things?"

The old man said: "Haha, you are very interesting, I don't want to kill you." ”

Li Qiufeng smiled slightly and said, "You can try it." ”

The old man said, "We all underestimated you. I originally thought that you were just a hundred households who wanted to make a fortune, and you could be used as a chess piece, but I didn't expect you to be one of the chess players. ”

Li Qiufeng said: "I don't like to play chess, and I don't want to treat others as chess pieces. You think you're a chess player, but you're just a pawn played by someone else. ”

The old man smiled and said, "Do you know that the person who is playing with me is not my pawn?"

Li Qiufeng said: "If he is your pawn, you have already succeeded twelve years ago, so why do you want to appear here?"

The old man's face sank and said, "Young man, it's not a good thing to know too much. I could have avoided killing you, but now I want to kill you. ”

Li Qiufeng said: "I just told you, you can try it." ”

The old man held the umbrella in front of him and said to Li Qiufeng: "You should feel honored to die in my hands." In the past fifteen years, no more than three people have asked me to use this umbrella. ”

Li Qiufeng said: "Is Xu En worthy of one?"

The old man shook his head and said, "He can only be counted as half." This eunuch's martial arts are good, but there are too many tricks to get on the big stage. ”

Li Qiufeng said: "Why don't you go to Zhang Yong, the governor of Dongchang? What's more, he has been following Emperor Zhengde, if you kill him, you can easily kill the emperor, and the great things you planned have already succeeded. ”

The old man said, "You know a lot. Kill Zhang Yong, I'm not sure. The big thing I want to do is not to kill the emperor and succeed, I want everyone in the world to be happy and convinced. ”

Li Qiufeng said: "Twelve years ago, you didn't succeed. You will still fail today. ”

The old man said: "Twelve years ago, I wanted to win by force, but I was used by others and failed. In the past 12 years, I have learned a truth that it is impossible to do great things by force alone, so I endured it for 12 years. Now that great things are coming, young man, you still have a chance......"

Li Qiufeng didn't wait for him to finish, and said in a deep voice: "You can try to kill me now." ”

At this moment, a loud "boom" was heard, and a large hole was blown open in the wall on the left side of the stone chamber. For a time, the stone room was filled with smoke and stone chips flew sideways.

Li Qiufeng saw the opportunity very quickly, his body was vertical, and he jumped to the side of the bookcase, and with a light kick of his right foot under the bookcase, the bookcase flew up. Li Qiufeng stretched out his left palm and slapped it in the corner of the bookcase. The bookcase fell straight to the ground and stood in front of Li Qiufeng, like a shield. I only heard the sound of "popping" continuously, and the scattered sand and stones hit the bookcase, and the momentum was quite amazing.

After a few moments, there was no more sound of sand and stones splashing. It's just that the smoke and dust in the stone room are everywhere, and I can't see anything clearly for a while. Li Qiufeng stood behind the bookcase, his right hand had already drawn his long knife, and waited for the enemy to appear.

At this moment, I heard the sound of a few stones falling to the ground on the left side of the stone chamber, and then heard the sound of heavy breathing of a person. Li Qiufeng was stunned, the old man's martial arts were superb, and the sound of his breathing was dull, and it would not be the old man's voice. But this stone room is Zhao Zhen's secret room, and it is built extremely firmly, who can enter here?

At this time, the dust and smoke in the stone room had gradually dissipated, and Li Qiufeng slowly walked to the left side of the bookcase, and then saw that there was one more in the stone room. The man was described as withered, with a bloodied face, leaning against the wall, trembling all over.

Li Qiufeng looked at it intently, although this person looked haggard, he was an acquaintance.

"Master He, don't come unharmed. Li Qiufeng said with a sneer.

This person is He Yi. He was tricked into the tunnel by Murong Danyan, and he had no basis for advancing and retreating, as if he was spinning in an impermeable ring. I don't know how many times I walked back and forth in the tunnel, and finally collapsed on the ground with exhaustion, hungry and thirsty, and inadvertently touched the gunpowder on my waist, He Yi scolded himself for being stupid as a cow. He attached two packets of gunpowder to the stone wall, ignited the fire with a fire fold, and finally blew a large hole in the stone wall. He escapes into another cave, only to be attacked by several men in black.

When it comes to real martial arts, although these black-clothed people have strange moves, He Yi is not afraid. It's just that he tossed countless backs and turns in the tunnel, coupled with hunger in his stomach and thirst in his mouth, seventy percent of his martial arts fell down, and he was forced to be in danger by several men in black. Fortunately, the thunderbolt was so powerful that it killed two men in black, and frightened the remaining few men in black to turn around and flee, so he was not killed on the spot.

Since then, He Yi has been running around in this underground tomb, but he has never found Yu Changchang and others. Sometimes, when he walked into a dead end, he would blow up gunpowder everywhere and blow up a way for him. It's just that the gunpowder on his body is getting less and less, and he is getting more and more hungry and thirsty, so he can only lie down for half a day and walk for a while.

In the end, all he had left was a packet of gunpowder and more than a dozen thunderbolts. But they have reached a dead end. He Yi was so hungry that he walked staggeringly at this time, holding on to the stone wall and gasping for a long time, and thought to himself: "I didn't expect that I would die here!

Remorse and rage, he finally tied a packet of gunpowder to a thunderbolt, thinking that if he couldn't find a way out this time, he would starve to death in the underworld. Then it is better to draw your sword and kill yourself, so that you will not suffer from endless hunger and thirst.

When he blew a big hole in the stone wall, he saw that the stone room was gorgeously furnished, and more than ten giant candles were lit. He Yi was overjoyed, thinking that he had finally found a place where there were people. But he was pleasantly surprised, but his feet were sore, and he struggled to climb through the blasted hole into the stone chamber, but he could no longer walk, so he had to lean on the stone wall and pant for breath.

At this time, the smoke and dust in the stone room had already dissipated, and He Yi heard someone greet him, and when he looked closely, it turned out to be a strong autumn wind. He hated Murong Dan in his heart, and even hated Li Qiufeng, and he couldn't kill Li Qiufeng with a sword. It's just that at this time, his whole body is sore and weak, his head is buzzing, and he can't even take a step, so how can he talk about killing people? Moreover, after these days, He Yi also realized that Li Qiufeng's martial arts are extremely high, and he is not just an ordinary brocade guard as the people of the Five Tiger Villa thought at the beginning. Although he was resentful in his heart, he didn't dare to turn his face.

"Brother Li, I didn't expect you to be here. Brother Yu, where are they?" He Yi asked with a pant.

Li Qiufeng saw him describe the withering and knew that it was caused by hunger and thirst. Reaching out and taking out an oiled paper bag from his arms, he took out a piece of beef jerky, handed it to him, and said, "Let's eat something first." ”

He Yi smelled the aroma of beef, his eyes seemed to glow, he reached out to take it, and immediately opened his mouth to swallow it. It's just that he swallowed in a hurry, choking on the roll of his eyes, and it took a long time to swallow the beef into his stomach.

This piece of beef is not too big, but it is better than nothing. He Yi had food in his stomach, and he had strength in his body. He took a few steps with his right hand on the wall and said, "Brother Li, where are the others?"

Li Qiufeng said: "This is hard to say. After a while, you met the owner of Yu Zhuang and asked him how he was. ”

After he finished speaking, he walked around the stone room, but there was no figure of the old man.
