Chapter 80: Phantom Scheme
Above the main hall of the Lingye Palace, it was dark and cold, even in the daytime, you had to light an oil lamp to barely see.
A man in black knelt on his knees, buried his head very low, and said respectfully, "Lord, it is Li Zifeng who finally won the first place in this martial arts conference!"
The Wei robe on top of the main seat is dressed in a black robe, it seems that the people of the Lingye Palace have always liked to live in the dark, from the master to the servant, even the clothes are all black, this group of people wants to subvert the light, but in fact, they are afraid of the darkness in their hearts!
Wei Senran smiled, and knocked on the armrest of the chair decorated by the skeleton with interest, "The apprentice cultivated by Ouyang Ze is really not ordinary, and I don't know if Li Muyang regrets his original decision." β
Everything was expected, not only did Wei Yu not lose his temper, but his tone and attitude were much gentler.
"How are the Cold Rain Protectors doing?" Wei Yuan waved his hand, and the servant who was waiting on the side hurriedly handed over a delicate wine cup with a pattern of gold rim, which contained a blood-red liquid.
"Tell the Lord, Leng Protector took several hall masters to Wei'an City. "The killer of the Lingye Palace who reported saw that today's master seemed to be in a good mood, and even sold Guanzi,
"I heard that a few days ago, there were people from the Zhou family in the family, and it was the youngest son of the Zhou family who went. The nightmare pondered for a moment, and did not ask, "Very good!"
The bright red liquid swayed in the cup in the hand of the nightmare, the glow-in-the-dark cup of grape wine, but unfortunately it was the most evil place in the world, and it was not worthy of such elegant words, and the cup was not fine wine, but the nightmare wanted to taste human blood today.
"The Lord is wise!" The killer turned out to be a master of slapping horses, with a smile on his face, but it was only a scarred face, and the smile looked even more hideous.
"Raise your head!" Wei Yu looked at the kneeling people below with interest, and couldn't remember when there was such a talkative killer in his palace.
What caught his eye was a smiling face, but it was too ugly. Even the dark and ugly Nightmare couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
Although this man is ugly, he is just right for the taste of Nightmare. Wei Yuan's mood today was also unusually happy, "Yes, since Wang Zhuang died, the position of the hall master of the Foreign Affairs Hall has been vacant, and from now on, you will be the hall master of the Foreign Affairs Hall." β
The man in black was overjoyed, and kept kowtowing, his voice was full of excited trills, "My subordinates thank you for the Lord's reward, and my subordinates swear to follow the Lord to the death and serve the Lord!"
Nightmare paused, his eyes smirking elusively through the iron mask, "Good! But you must remember that sometimes, tongues that are too long can be cut off." β
"Yes, keep it in mind!" the man in black bowed again.
"Send a message to those few wastes, if you can make the Hengshan faction mess up, you will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of gold and two concubines. β
The killer below nodded in response, his eyes were hot, ten thousand taels of gold, and there were concubines! But looking back and thinking about the ending of the three hall masters who couldn't complete the task, he suddenly shuddered, and the heat in his eyes suddenly dissipated.
When the man in black retreated, the Dharma Protector Hanfeng, who had been watching from the sidelines, rubbed his nose, and a slightly mild smile rarely appeared on his cold cheeks, and he shook it off with a look, "Why are you laughing?"
Han Feng took a step forward and bowed slightly, "Please forgive the Lord for the sin of courage among his subordinates, his subordinates think that the Lord is too elevated to him, and the position of the head of the Foreign Affairs Hall is not something that a fool can afford." β
"Isn't that just right? Li Zifeng won the first place, and this seat was also happy, and he was ready to give him a big gift. β
The cold wind raised his head, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he soon realized again, "My subordinates understand." β
The next day, Li Zifeng braved the morning light and went out of the mountain gate lightly.
Since the rise of the Lingye Palace, the Hengshan faction has been paying attention to the movements of the Lingye Palace. Although these killers are very secretive, as long as they are not real demons in the dark. You can find clues. Over the years, the Hengshan faction has long mastered several strongholds of the Lingye Palace.
What is not triggered is to prepare for the last time, while once and for all. The Lingye Palace will definitely regain its wings after this operation, and Li Zifeng's purpose in going down the mountain this time is to take advantage of this time to collect the specific location of the Lingye Palace and remove some of the rudders of the Lingye Palace.
Yeyang City is still busy, lively as usual, into the Yunxuan Pharmacy, turn the hall, is a small courtyard, the courtyard and then inside, is a living room, here is the headquarters of Qingsong Hall.
And the hall master Shen Zhiping is not in Qingsong Hall, waiting for Li Zifeng is Shen Zhiping's newly accepted attendant disciple Ye Li, Li Zifeng was a little surprised, "When did Uncle Shi leave?"
Ye Li handed Li Zifeng a brown paper envelope with both hands, and said respectfully, "Senior brother, the hall master left yesterday, but he knew that you were coming early in the morning, so he left this and let me hand it over to you personally." β
Li Zifeng took it, "Well, where are the rest of the people waiting?"
Ye Li's eyes had a different meaning, which seemed to be mixed with inexplicable anxiety, "The rest of the people are in Weijiazhuang, this is dangerous, senior brother must be more careful!"
Li Zifeng was stunned, looked up at Ye Li, and wanted to read something on Ye Li's face, but Ye Li lowered his head slightly, his face was calm, and he refused to say anything more, and then smiled, "Thank you for reminding me." You tell Uncle Shi to rest assured, I have my own plans for doing things, and also, return this box to Uncle Shi. Thank you Uncle for me. β
Li Zifeng took out a dark red wooden box with half a palm from his arms and handed it to Ye Li.
"Senior brother, don't worry!" Ye Li took the wooden box, and suddenly felt that the box weighed a thousand pounds.
The shadow guards around Li Zifeng, Piaoyun, Shen Yu and the guards disappeared. Li Zifeng was dressed in disguise, wearing a linen dress and a hat. Riding a horse from the back door of the small courtyard, I drilled a few narrow alleys, went up the bustling main street, turned a few more streets, and when I reached the street with a little less crowd, I picked up speed and drove towards the outside of the city.
Plain clothes and hats, long swords and short daggers, wind and dew, riding alone.
As night fell, a cold breeze blew. In a small courtyard in the suburbs of an unknown town, the door was closed, and the papier-mΓ’chΓ© windows were faintly lit.
"Hall Shake Master, Li Zifeng has already gone down the mountain. β
"Although the second child has gone to Wei'an City, those people from the family are not easy to fool, and we will continue to track Li Zifeng's whereabouts. Look for opportunities. β
The crickets chirped in the corner, the calm voices of the two men hidden in the darkness and were inaudible.
There was a bit of helplessness in the man's tone, "He has a shadow guard by his side, and we don't have many opportunities!"
The man known as the Hall Master was a little disdainful, "Hmph! stupid, use your brain." What did the intelligence in the palace say? Compared to Li Zifeng's life, we can also live if they are in chaos!"
The man's tone weakened a little, "You're amazing, you still haven't become a Dharma protector!"
"Shut your foul mouth!" the Hall Master seemed to be poked in the sore spot.
There was silence in the room, two figures in the dim light, the stars outside the window were shining, and the moon was bright.
"There is news in the palace that Li Zifeng's life experience is somewhat related to Hongyuan Villa, and this time Hongyuan Villa's performance in the martial arts conference is too ordinary, so ordinary that it makes people suspicious! None of the disciples of this generation of a top force can show their hands!"
The man asked tentatively, "Blame?"
"You've finally got your head open!"
The man understood that sometimes the brain was indeed much more useful than force, and although he had a body of kung fu, he lacked a genius head like the earth-shattering sound, and there were no rumors to refute it.
"Li Muyang and Ouyang Ze have always been inseparable, and they have the revenge of killing their wives and children, we just need to do something here and connect Li Zifeng with Hongyuan Villa!" What these two hall masters didn't expect was that their self-righteous cleverness exposed their master's biggest secret.
