Chapter Seventy-Eight: Gathering Momentum

Li Zifeng came to the west entrance of the town non-stop, which is the place where Li Muyang lost his trace last time: Yuanjia Liquor Shop, Yuanjia Liquor Shop is also one of the shops that are allowed to open a night market, but under martial law, there are only three tables of guests in the liquor store at this time who are silently drinking and eating beef, and the shop guys are lazily napping against the counter.

The west entrance of the town is relatively remote, and within a few steps to the west, there is a desolate artemisia meadow and sparse and decayed woods.

Flickering lanterns, dim candle flames, cold winds, and three tables of quiet guests eating meat and drinking. I don't know if it's because I'm too sensitive or too nervous, Li Zifeng always feels that these pictures are a little out of place when put together.

He hid in a hidden place, pinched a stone and flew in, and immediately heard the sound of Qi brushing in the wine shop, like the sound of pulling out a weapon, and then the shop guy who was still napping immediately came out to check.

The movements are neat and well-trained. The corners of Li Zifeng's mouth hooked up a sneer, turned around, and disappeared.

It was getting late, all the inns and restaurants that could stay were closed, and there was nowhere to stay, so Li Zifeng walked into the decayed woods, on the one hand, he could hide well, and on the other hand, it was convenient to observe every move of the wine shop.

A gust of wind silently swept across his cheeks, bringing up an almost unpleasant smell of blood, the smell of blood was very faint, and he couldn't smell it at all if he wasn't careful, but it still couldn't escape Li Zifeng's nose. Probably because of the experience of blindness, his sense of smell and hearing was particularly sensitive. There have been attacks and killings here.

Without hesitation, he drew the long sword at his waist and pointed at the approaching figure.

"Own people. The person who came was making a soft defense, it was a familiar voice, Xu Xiangkun!

Li Zifeng quietly made a tentative move, Xu Xiangkun dodged to dodge, and the move was very clever, so that people had nowhere to start, Li Zifeng made a move with someone for the first time, and suffered a dumb loss, the original fast and accurate swordsmanship, but at this time, he could only cut off a few yellow leaves and bark, Li Zifeng simply withdrew his hand and collected the soft sword in his waist.

"I can't tell you're still a master. Li Zifeng smiled deeply and looked into the depths of the woods, "You did it?"

Xu Xiangkun replied briskly, "Otherwise, let these killers serve as the eyes of Hongyuan Villa?"

"I'm underestimating you, you're right, it's time for us to get acquainted again. Li Zifeng sighed slightly, his expression was inexplicable, and then he asked in a calm voice, "Who are you?"

Xu Xiangkun was dressed in a black suit, with a long sword with him, and his eyes were deep and cold, which was very different from the appearance of the previous handsome son. Li Zifeng suddenly felt that he didn't seem to know much about this person.

"The former leader of Xing Wei's mansion was dismissed from his official position and confiscated all his family property and house because of a willful and reckless action. Xu Xiangkun said calmly, as if he was talking about other people's business, "You know all this!"

"What about what I don't know?" Li Zifeng said, seeing two black shadows walking in the direction of the Yuan family's wine shop.

was about to chase, but was stopped by Xu Xiangkun, Li Zifeng understood something, "Your people?"

Xu Xiangkun nodded, looking at Li Zifeng's questioning eyes, Xu Xiangkun's heart rose to a sense of loneliness, and suddenly said angrily, "What I have done, can't you choose to believe it?"

"What you did for me before, I remember it in my heart, and I promised you that if there is a life in the future, I will never lose you. Li Zifeng paused, "But the premise is that I must understand this person." ”

"Sometimes what a person experiences is not what he chooses, and he or she can't help himself. Xu Xiangkun looked at Li Zifeng deeply and continued, "Just like you, if you had a father and mother's love when you were a child, and a home that made you feel happy, then you wouldn't be Ouyang Ze's apprentice now, would you?"

Li Zifeng opened his mouth, but he was speechless, Xu Xiangkun saw that Li Zifeng's mood was a little loose, and pretended to smile relaxedly, "Don't worry, no matter how I change, I will always be the little clay figure you knew when you were a child." ”

The little clay figure is a joking name, and it was Li Zifeng's only playmate when he was a child, except for Li Shijie and Su Kexin. Because his surname is Ni and he loves to play with mud, he was nicknamed the little clay man by Li Zifeng.

In any case, with someone as a companion, the long night was not difficult, and the two of them sat down calmly, looking in the direction of the Yuan family's liquor store. Li Zifeng thought about asking him about the inappropriateness he had experienced at this time, so he breathed a sigh of relief and quipped, "Forget it, for the sake of your heavy losses for helping me, I won't care about you." ”

"Thank you!" Xu Xiangkun said in a strange voice, "If this matter is over, if you and I still have our lives, I will tell you in detail to dispel your thirst for knowledge, provided that you provide me with food and living." ”

"A dog's mouth can't spit out ivory. This is Li Zifeng scolded fiercely.

In the dead of night, the insects cease to chirp, except for the occasional bird that flies by, making a tireless chirp.

Li Zifeng took out a small box of ointment, clicked it with his fingers, and rubbed it on his temples, exuding a faint smell of grass, this smell is common in the woods, and it will not arouse suspicion, it is what Li Zifeng must bring every time he goes out.

Xu Xiangkun smiled slightly, "What is this? ”

"Refreshing, in case we all fall asleep, we don't know what's going on in front of us. Li Zifeng said and handed the medicine box to Xu Xiangkun, "Do you want to try it?"

Xu Xiangkun was laughed angrily, and after staring at Li Zifeng for a while, he reached out and took it and applied it to his temples unceremoniously, "Isn't it a pity that such a good thing is not needed?"

Li Zifeng frowned silently, and after a stick of incense, Xu Xiangkun leaned against the trunk. Fall asleep. That ointment was not refreshing, but soothing, and it was used by Li Zifeng occasionally when he couldn't sleep because of the pain.

"I'm sorry, sometimes, I don't even believe in myself. Li Zifeng said softly, then took off his coat and covered Xu Xiangkun's body, "Sleep well, I'll bring you some food tomorrow morning." ”

Li Zifeng thought, it was not a matter to be like a headless fly, he suddenly thought that at that time, since Ouyang Ze cooperated with the emperor to act in a play and withdrew from Wei'an City, he would definitely stay in this Qingyuan Town, he had also heard Shen Zhiping say that there was a mansion near here, and the approximate location was vaguely left in his mind.

What he has to do now is to secretly contact Ouyang Ze and see the follow-up arrangements.

Li Zifeng's footsteps gradually faded away, Xu Xiangkun slowly opened his eyes, felt the coat that was still carrying body temperature, looked at the direction of Li Zifeng's disappearance, the sense of loss in his heart was even worse than Fang Cai, and he sighed in his heart: You are too tired to live.

At this time, Ouyang Ze and Shen Zhiping were sitting in the house of Yangui Garden, discussing tomorrow's defensive measures and action plans to deal with various possible emergencies.

The candles burned hard, casting a glow for the night, and the refreshing tea on the table had been changed twice.

After Xu Zining arranged for his attendants Shi Yu and Shi Yi to secretly 'protect' He Yukun, he returned here to keep vigil. The so-called Ouyang Ze and Shen Zhiping left Qingyuan Town, but they were just for He Yukun to see.

A cold wind blew, Xu Zining suddenly came to his senses, and hurriedly looked around, sure enough, a figure flying in was seen by him, he tapped his toes, flew to catch up, and when he chased to the backyard, a distracted person was caught up with his mouth and controlled in the corner of the wall, and under the pale moonlight, the face of the uninvited guest came into view.

Xu Zining's round eyes widened, surprised and delighted, and he wanted to call his senior brother, but Li Zifeng covered his mouth tightly, and could only make a 'woo' sound, Li Zifeng said softly, "Don't make a noise, I'm here to discuss something important with the master, you just don't see me, and I'll explain to you later." ”

Xu Zining was covered a little breathlessly, but nodded hard. Li Zifeng came back to his senses and let go of his hand, Xu Zining saw Li Zifeng standing in front of him well, breathed a long sigh of relief, and smiled knowingly.
