In the inner room of Jingzhuxuan, the sun is one foot slanting, the fragrance of tea is overflowing, the black and white chess pieces on the chess case are deadlocked, and it is about to become a dead end, and the controller of this game of chess is Ouyang Tian. Ouyang Angel is a master of chess, and he has excellent control over the chess game, and few people can usually walk through five moves in his hand, but now he is playing chess into a dead game...

The attendant disciple who served on the side was Wufeng, who was five in Chinese New Year's Eve, the youngest of the disciples of the previous generation, who had followed Ouyang Tian for many years, was loyal, and had an excellent relationship with Ouyang Ze and others. At this point, he looked straight out the door, looking worried.

Ouyang Tian glanced at him silently, and threw a sunspot in his hand into the chess box, "What time is it?" The voice was calm, and he couldn't hear any emotion.

Wufeng came back to his senses and replied truthfully, "It's the end of the time." Wufeng paused, seeing that Ouyang Tian didn't seem to react, he deliberately reminded, "The head has been kneeling outside for two hours. ”

Ouyang Tian frowned, and said in a deep voice, "Mouthy!"

Wufeng closed his mouth and lowered his head silently, Ouyang Tian looked outside the door and took the chess pieces back to the chess box one by one.

If he didn't understand Ouyang Ze's purpose for coming here, it was false. Shen Zhiping and Li Zifeng didn't see anyone alive or dead, so they said that the person was dead based on an official document and a few objects, not to mention Ouyang Ze, even he didn't want to believe it, but the people sent down searched for a few days, but there was still no news back, and after a long time, he didn't have hope.

Ouyang Ze's purpose here is nothing more than to go down the mountain to find it in person, and the time will not be too short. kept him hanging out of the door, just to keep him calm and calm, I never thought that he was so stubborn.

Outside the window, a flock of birds fluttered their wings and flew by, making a crisp call, Ouyang Ze looked at it, and finally sighed unbearably, "That's it, let him in!"

"Yes. ”

In the front yard of Jingzhuxuan, Ouyang Ze knelt straight on the ground, from the sun shining until the sky was dark, the cool breeze swept his face, and lifted his almost gray hair. The occasional disciples and guards passing by bowed to Ouyang Ze and left in a hurry.

The dull pain from his knees reminded him of the time he knelt, he hadn't knelt for so long, he had long forgotten that it would be so uncomfortable, he couldn't imagine how Li Zifeng had survived the punishment of kneeling for two hours a day in the three years he had been imprisoned, and the pain of kneeling for a night was often a night, Ouyang Ze was full of guilt.

The door of the house opened, and Wufeng walked up to Ouyang Ze and bowed, "Master, old master, please come in and talk." ”

Ouyang Ze breathed a sigh of relief, stood up, quickly relieved the discomfort caused by kneeling for a long time, and walked in quickly. Wufeng followed, closed the door from the outside, and ordered the guards and other attendants to retreat.

When Ouyang Ze entered the inner room, Ouyang Tian was fiddling with the chess pieces on the chessboard, and when he heard Ouyang Ze's footsteps coming in, he didn't raise his head, but only asked lightly, "Is it cold outside?"

Ouyang Ze was stunned, and hurriedly knelt on the ground in his robe, and lowered his head, "My son has disappointed you." ”

Ouyang Tian frowned, "It doesn't matter if I'm disappointed or not, the key is that you have to understand what you want to do." ”

The chess pieces in Ouyang Tian's hand landed on the chessboard one by one, making a crisp sound, Ouyang Ze lowered his head slightly, "One is the hall master of Qingsong Hall, and the other is the chief disciple, they are very important in the Hengshan Sect, if I don't go to find them in person, and announce them dead, then I won't be at ease in my life." ”

Ouyang Tian paused slightly, pinched the chess pieces in his hand, forcibly controlled the tears in his eyes, and then, knocked the chess pieces in his hand heavily on the chessboard, frowning, "Just for the guilt in your heart?!"

Ouyang Ze was stunned and silent......

"Chief disciple..."Ouyang Tian muttered softly, holding the chess case with his arms, and sighed softly, "How long has it been since the Hengshan Sect had a chief disciple?" After that, seeing that Ouyang Ze was still kneeling on the ground, he raised his eyebrows, "Get up, as the head of the sect, you kneel at every turn, what does it look like?"

Ouyang Ze hesitated for a long time, stood up, lowered his eyelids, did not dare to meet Ouyang Tianying's eyes, opened his mouth, and didn't know what to say, and the atmosphere suddenly fell silent.

Ouyang Tian stared at Ouyang Ze carefully, his expression was inexplicable, "After all, it's my father's fault, I don't know you too much." ”

Ouyang Ze understood in his heart that Ouyang Tian was saying that he was too uncalm and too emotional. But if he hadn't made this trip, he really wouldn't have felt at ease, if it weren't for his endless persecution. How could Li Zifeng be in a hurry to investigate Hongyuan Villa, thus inadvertently touching the interests of some forces in Wei'an City and ignoring his own safety?

Ouyang Ze was full of guilt, "Dad, I'm sorry..."

Ouyang Tian waved his hand and interrupted Ouyang Ze's next words, "Do you remember the pair of mountains and rivers calligraphy and paintings that your father gave you?"

Ouyang Ze nodded, "Remember, my son has to watch carefully every day, and he understands the hill and the entire landscape." You can rest assured that your son will be cautious and take the safety of the Hengshan faction and the entire martial arts as the most important thing. ”

Ouyang Tian seemed to smile, "What the head of the family said is too high-sounding. Ouyang Ze continued to fiddle with the chess pieces on the chess case, "The head must also be worthy of his own heart." ”

......

Li Shijie returned to Hongyuan Villa alone, at this time, the sky was covered with a layer of mist, sprinkling a little hoarfrost on the newly grown shoots of plants, the breeze Buddha face, blowing moisture, mixed with the smell of earth in the air.

Li Muyang sat in the study, holding a letter from Li Shijie in his hand, saying that it was a letter, but in fact there was only one sentence on it: Your niece killed your son. Li Muyang frowned, crumpled the letter paper into a ball and threw it to the door, and threw it on Li Shijie, who was entering the door.

Li Shijie caught the paper ball, looked at Li Muyang expressionlessly, silently did not speak, Li Muyang squinted at him and frowned, "I will not be able to say anything when I am out for a few days?"

Li Shijie sighed heavily, "Chase Money Village and Hongtai Money Village have temporarily reined in their wings because of a fire at Hengxiang Inn, and Zhou Yixuan's side has also taken care of it. What else do you need to know?"

Li Muyang looked at the paper ball pinched by Li Shijie in his hand, "Is the letter you sent back serious?"

Li Muyang felt incredible, although he felt that something was wrong with Su Kexin before, but he always thought that she was a girl's careful thoughts, and she would never get in touch with Lingye Palace. Even though Hongyuan Villa and Lingye Palace had already been secretly in contact, it was only secretly after all, and Li Muyang did not want to blatantly make enemies with the imperial court and the entire martial arts rivers and lakes.

said that Su Kexin was the protector of Lingye Palace, Li Muyang would not believe it anyway, and besides, was Li Zifeng really dead?

"Our villa is also full of talents, and the Li Quan before was just that, and now there is a protector of the Lingye Palace, and I don't know who it will be next time." ”

Li Muyang slapped his palm on the table, and the objects on the table trembled, "What are you talking about?!"

"Words from the heart. After Li Shijie said lightly, he bowed to Li Muyang, "My son is tired, so he retired first." ”

When he left the study, Li Muyang stopped him from behind, "Is Li Zifeng really dead?"

Li Shijie stopped his steps, forcibly held back the tears that were about to overflow, turned around and stared at Li Muyang, a strange smile appeared on his face, "Dad, when will you care about his life and death?"

After that, without waiting for Li Muyang to say anything, Li Shijie turned around and left.

Walking through the corridor, stepping on the gravel road, ignoring the servants who greeted him, Li Shijie hurriedly walked back to his study, looked at the items on the bookcase, and couldn't control his emotions anymore......

A servant who was about to enter the house to serve tea stopped at the door, hesitating whether to go in, Li Shijie frowned, glanced over, and then roared angrily, "Get out!"

The servant did not dare to hesitate any longer, and ran away.
