Chapter 144: Night

In the middle of the night, Li Zifeng was lying on the side couch in Ouyang Ze's room, his face flushed, his forehead was covered with a wet and cool veil, and the smell of medicine in his mouth was still strong. Li Zifeng tried hard to open his slightly cloudy eyes, quietly watching Ouyang Ze's figure walk back and forth, and slowly approached the bed.

He was really weak, unable to get up again to say goodbye, he just wanted to sleep quietly, but he couldn't sleep because of the headache and brain swelling. His generous hand replaced him with the steaming kerchief on his forehead, and threw it into the basin next to him to soak it again.

Ouyang Ze sighed, seeing that Li Zifeng was so sick that he still refused to sleep, knowing that he was feeling a little heavy because he was almost killed, "Shang Qingyuan has already made you feel uneasy?"

Li Zifeng breathed lightly, and lightly opened his pale lips, "Those who practice martial arts, when will they really feel at ease? Walking the rivers and lakes is sharp, for fear of being assassinated." is in a high position, and you have to beware of being framed by villains. ”

Ouyang Ze's expression was solemn, "Who is trying to harm you?" ”

"Demons. The demons between us. Li Zifeng's eyes became more and more blurry, "I'm tired......"

Ouyang Ze sighed and tucked the quilt for him, "When you're tired, sleep well, don't think about anything." ”

Just when Ouyang Ze was about to get up and leave, he was suddenly pulled by Li Zifeng's sleeve, Li Zifeng's misty eyes were watery, as if he was trying his best to find something from Ouyang Ze, and said in a hoarse voice, "The moment you lifted the quilt and dragged He Xiang to the ground, did you think from the bottom of your heart that I did that ugly thing?"

Ouyang Ze was stunned, opened his mouth, and finally didn't say anything. Li Zifeng was disappointed, his eyes were dim, and his throat was dry, "I understand." With that, he slowly closed his eyes and slowly slid his arm down.

Ouyang Ze was startled, and hurriedly called Mingsu who was guarding the door, and after Mingsu stepped forward to check the pulse, he breathed a sigh of relief, "Don't worry, Zifeng is just too tired and fell asleep." Poisoning already hurts the root, just now in order to stay awake, and forcibly mobilize internal forces, plus I work too weekdays, so I ......"

Ouyang Ze was stunned, "I understand, I'll bother you to take care of him tonight." ”

"Senior brother in charge, rest assured. Ming Su watched Ouyang Ze walk out of the room and sighed heavily. If you are distressed, why torture, and if you are disgusted, why stay by your side?

Ouyang Ze walked out of the room, his face suddenly became extremely gloomy, and the dark guard immediately appeared, "Master." ”

"Immediately investigate thoroughly, how did such an unclean thing as 'Mixed Heart Grass' enter the gate of Shang Qingyuan?!"

"Yes!" Yu Hao received the order, but he didn't leave immediately, he had been working under Ouyang Ze for many years, and he understood that Ouyang Ze had orders next, "Immediately send a message to the Shen Hall Master of Qingsong Hall and ask him to assist in investigating some things...... As he spoke, Ouyang Ze's voice suddenly lowered a little.

"Yes! Subordinates will do it immediately!" Yu Hao received the order, and his figure disappeared into the vast night in an instant.

Ouyang Ze walked back to the study and picked up a cold official document again, after such a toss, he was used to staying up late, and completely lost his sleepiness......

At this time, a faint figure behind the screen gradually became apparent, Ouyang Ze was not surprised, but just ordered as usual, "Transfer the floating clouds and Shen Yu in the shadow guard team, continue to stay by Li Zifeng's side, and protect secretly." ”

"The subordinates obeyed. "The person who came is the captain of the shadow guard, codenamed Traceless. After receiving the order, Traceless did not leave immediately, but hesitated to say something. All this was seen by Ouyang Ze.

"If you have anything to say, what kind of system will you become?"

"Yes. According to the investigation, there was indeed a mole in the group led by Gongzi to exterminate the rudder of Lingye Palace. ”

The old past was mentioned again, like a thorn in the heart, and it deepened a few inches towards the position of the heart again, Ouyang Ze frowned, his eyes were dyed gloomy, "Everyone knows everything, and you still need to go back and forth?!"

Wuxian lowered his head, understanding that if he hesitated any longer, Ouyang Ze would give an order to expel the guest, so he said as quickly as possible, "It's just that in addition to Gongzi's secret meeting with Li Shijie, there is another person who went out without permission during the period, and his whereabouts are secretive." And once it was after Childe left. ”

Ouyang Ze raised his eyebrows lightly, pinched the teacup on the table and played, "Who is it?"

Wuxian sighed helplessly, "That person traveled in disguise, and his subordinates don't know." ”

Ouyang Ze frowned, "Keep investigating, I want conclusive evidence!"

"Yes!" the light of the candlestick flickered slightly, and disappeared without a trace......

The night was deeper, the sky seemed to be splashed with ink, it was dark and dull and could not find a trace of light, the cold wind was blowing slowly, the branches were rustling, and the door was 'creaking', Shi Shen returned to his room in the miscellaneous workshop with a red face, stood by the bed, packed his bags, and prepared to go down the mountain at dawn tomorrow, a gust of wind rushed into the house along the crack in the door, causing the candle flame on the table to shake violently, and Shi Shen couldn't help but shiver one after another.

The female disciples who lived with her next to her cleaned up the basin and prepared to fetch water to wash, but her eyes glanced at the stone pendant from time to time, muttering......

"If I had done such an ugly thing, I wouldn't have waited for dawn to go down the mountain overnight. ”

"That is, Shi Shen thought that the sparrow flew up the branch and the phoenix, who knew that the wild cat stole the fish. ”

"Yes, even if the son is down, he is now the person next to the head, the head is distressed, how can he condone this kind of thing?"

Stone Pendant wiped his tears as he cleaned up his things

"What are you talking about?!"

A stern reprimand came from the door, the voice landed, and a middle-aged woman came in, it was Xiao Wusleeve, the steward in charge of female disciples in the miscellaneous workshop, Xiao Wusleeve was five years old in Chinese New Year's Eve, medium in size, dressed plainly, with a simple bun on the top of her head, and faint fine lines had appeared at the corners of her eyes.

Xiao Wusleeve scolded, "I've only been listening to it for a long time, what kind of rough things are you talking about? Like a girl saying it? Do you want to be beaten by the board?!

One by one, the attendants went out with basins of water to fetch water. Shi Shen put down the burden in his hand and bowed slightly to Xiao Wusleeve, "Thank you Xiao for taking care of things." ”

"It doesn't matter. Xiao Wusleeve's voice was a little rough, he looked her up and down, and persuaded, "Okay, don't think about it, finish packing up your things and go to bed quickly, Ming'er has breakfast in the morning, go to me to get some silver taels as travel expenses, be a good person in the future, don't cause trouble again." ”

"Yes. Shi Shen rubbed his swollen eyes.

Xiao Wusleeve sighed, turned around and left the room, Shi Shen continued to pack up her things, she was resentful in her heart, she was obviously obedient to orders and secretly cooperated, why did she let herself bear this inexplicable charge, and in the whole incident, she was also a victim, and her innocent body seemed to be gone.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, and the stone pendant shivered again.

One of the female disciples couldn't help but complain, "Why is the lamp dark! ”

The other female disciple was mysterious, and made a silent gesture, "It's better to be careful!"

The two of them muttered, carefully pushing open the door, "Ahhh

"What's the noise?!I don't want to sleep anymore, do you?!" Xiao Wusleeve scolded with a calm face, the two female disciples trembled and got out of the way, Xiao Wusleeve wanted to reprimand a few more words, but found that their eyes were different, so he followed their eyes and looked into the room, and was stunned!

On the beam in the middle of the house, there was a person hanging from the beam, it was the stone pendant! The stone pendant lowered his head, his eyes were closed, his neck was hung on the beam by white silk, and his body hung weakly. Xiao Wusleeve steadied his breathing, and hurriedly beckoned to put the stone pendant down, but it was too late, and the stone pendant was already dead of anger!
