The sunset gradually set, the sky suddenly darkened, the cold wind blew through the branches and leaves, making a 'rustling' sound, Li Zifeng wrapped a thick coat, still felt cold hands and feet, the head of the arrival had settled down one after another, and he didn't need to accompany him all the time, Zhou Wenxian took people to the city gate to check the situation.

Li Zifeng seems to be idle, but his heart is floating uneasily, on the one hand, he is worried about the situation of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and on the other hand, he is afraid that something will go wrong here, he always feels that the seemingly unrelated Prime Minister's Mansion and the head of the house are faintly connected by a line, which makes him uneasy, and he always feels that something will happen, but after thinking about it for a long time, it has no result.

Qingyun is very sensible, and he doesn't want to play like an ordinary child, but after following Xu Zining's side, he can occasionally say a few words, and the more serious boss can't help but praise Qingyun for being transparent and smart.

Li Zifeng watched silently, Qingyun's sensibility made him inexplicably sad, he hoped that Qingyun would gain a foothold in the sect as soon as possible, and on the other hand, he hoped that he could maintain some innocence, but the two were contradictory, Li Zifeng suddenly didn't know whether it was right or wrong to let him join the Hengshan faction at Ouyang Ze's request.

"What do you want to be so obsessed? Senior brother, how old are you, you are so sentimental, be careful of premature aging. Xu Zining bit the apple and trotted over briskly.

Li Zifeng glanced at Xu Zining and deliberately straightened his face, "If you don't finish eating, I have to give you a plate one day." Li Zifeng once again looked at Qingyun. At this time, Qingyun was squatting in the corner of the wall, fiddling with flowers and plants with great interest.

Xu Zining didn't seem to hear Li Zifeng speak, and still chewed the apple flesh and whispered something.

Li Zifeng suddenly shook off a stern look, "How about fasting for three days?"

Xu Zining listened, didn't think about it, and hurriedly threw the uneaten apples into the bamboo basket containing the garbage. Li Zifeng was laughed at angrily, "The reaction is quite fast, but if you waste food, you will also be punished." ”

"Senior brother, when you go out, why are you so exquisite?" Xu Zining muttered quietly.

"If you speak against each other, you will be punished for meditating for an hour before going to bed. ”

"Senior brother!" Xu Zining argued hard

"Two hours!" Li Zifeng showed no mercy. Xu Zining's face was full of black lines.

Just as the two were talking, a dull 'crackling' sound came, and at the same time, Qingyun was gone, the two of them had numb scalps, and instantly gasped, and hurriedly stepped forward to check, it doesn't matter if they don't check, they found that there was a hole in the corner of the wall where Qingyun had stayed, and the size of the hole was just right to drill out of a person.

The two of them followed the entrance of the cave to find out, and after a while, they found Qingyun, who was sitting in the mud puddle and rubbing his legs helplessly, and a secret guard had already stepped forward to check, and when they saw the two coming out, they hurriedly greeted, "The eldest son and the second son." ”

Li Zifeng looked at the entrance of the cave, and then looked at the embarrassed Qingyun, his face suddenly sank, and he said coldly, "Immediately take someone to check the front and back of Zhiyuan, and look carefully at every brick and tile!"

"Yes!" the dark guard gasped, not daring to hesitate, and immediately led people to disperse around to check.

Li Zifeng was silent, and stepped forward to check the situation of Qingyun, and Qingyun was fine, but the skin on his calf was broken.

"Can I go?" Li Zifeng confirmed that he was okay after completing the examination.

Qingyun didn't dare to speak, just nodded vigorously, patted the dust on his body, and followed the two back to the house.

Qingyun has a strong self-care ability, and he scrubs the wound by himself throughout the whole process, applies medicine, and does not use Li Zifeng's help, after finishing the work, he sits quietly on the edge of the bed, and his black grape-like eyes look straight in the direction of Li Zifeng.

Li Zifeng sighed slightly, sat on the edge of the bed and pulled the corner of the quilt for Qingyun, and said, "You don't know, when I couldn't see it at the beginning, I also fell like you, and it hurt, I'll remember it next time." ”

"Uncle. It's not that Qingyun is naughty, it's just that the bricks in the corner of the wall are loose. ”

"I know. Li Zifeng said softly, "Although the matter is small, sometimes your unintentional actions may cause immeasurable consequences. Li Zifeng suddenly felt that it was too heavy to say this to Qingyun now, but this was a lesson from his past, he had suffered because of his carelessness, and he didn't want Qingyun to do it again in the future.

The night was deep, Qingyun fell asleep deeply, Li Zifeng gently closed the door, at this time, Xu Zining was waiting at the door, seeing that Li Zifeng's face was not as deep as Fang Cai, he was slightly relieved, "Senior brother, the matter of bricks is my negligence, if it weren't for Qingyun's unintentional discovery......"

Li Zifeng frowned, suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly turned around and walked towards the place where Qingyun 'disappeared', Xu Zining didn't have time to react, and hurriedly followed.

The night was thick, the insects were chirping, and only the cold wind of autumn was blowing slowly, setting off a chill.

The original entrance to the cave has been built, Li Zifeng surrounded the wall, turned around a few times inside and out, and then walked outside to check the direction of the hole, Xu Zining kept following around, I don't know why.

"What are you suspecting, brother, maybe it's just a state of disrepair?"

"How can the biennial head meeting fall into disrepair?" Li Zifeng said, waving his hand to summon a secret guard, Li Zifeng turned his back to the original cave entrance and pointed to the front, "Where does this lead to?" ”

The dark guard replied, "Eldest prince, further down here is a dense forest, along the forest path all the way north out of Xikip County, and then go down is a wilderness. After the secret guard finished replying, he hadn't heard what Li Zifeng said for a long time, and continued, "As for the farther direction, it has not been marked on the topographic map, so my subordinates will check it immediately." ”

Li Zifeng calculated the time and said, "Give you two days, if you find a suspicious person on the way, take it immediately!"

"Yes!" the Dark Guard ordered to retreat.

"Senior brother, what's wrong with you, why are you so nervous?" Xu Zining clearly saw that Li Zifeng's forehead was already covered with fine beads of sweat, and his tone when he spoke just now seemed to be a little unstable.

Li Zifeng shook his head, feeling very strange in his heart, he always felt that something was going to happen, but there was no evidence, and he couldn't say anything, so he exhaled a long breath and said, "The haze of the martial arts conference five years ago lingers. ”

The fluttering sentence covers the past that Li Zifeng is most reluctant to remember.

After the atmosphere was stagnant for a long time, Xu Zining coughed lightly, "Senior brother, you are just too stressed, just go back and sleep." As he spoke, seeing that Li Zifeng was still stunned, he forcibly dragged him back, "Oh, don't look at it......"

Li Zifeng had insomnia again, and stood by the window all night, revealing the white belly of the fish belly in the dark sky, which seemed to be calm in the garden, but the wind was surging.

Some familiar sects began to communicate with each other casually, or secretly discussed. Li Zifeng maintained a normal mentality and did his best to do what he should do, even if some self-esteemed leaders did not take him seriously.

At ten o'clock in the afternoon, Ouyang Ze hurried over after dealing with Wei Ancheng's affairs, looked at Li Zifeng's red eyes, and sighed, "What's the matter?

Li Zifeng shook his head and looked behind Ouyang Ze, "Pavilion Master Shen, they didn't come?"

Ouyang Ze said, "They have other things to deal with in Wei'an City, and it is estimated that they will arrive early tomorrow morning." ”

Li Zifeng's face was unabated, it seemed that those old and old-fashioned people had thrown Li Zifeng's face, Ouyang Ze sighed deeply and said, "Zifeng, it's too late to regret it now, the affairs are busy right now, it is reasonable for you to leave here to deal with the affairs of this sect." ”

"It's all taken care of, how can you retreat again?" Li Zifeng raised his eyes and looked at Ouyang Ze, then bowed his hand and saluted deeply, "Disciple always remember that the interests of the Hengshan faction should be the most important. ”

Looking at Li Zifeng like this, Ouyang Ze's heart was like a knife, was there only this left between him and Li Zifeng?

"Head Ouyang, there are many disturbances below,......" When the atmosphere was stiff, the heads who were familiar with Ouyang Ze came over to say hello, a little bit of sincerity, a little bit of falsehood, all of which were contained in the smiling greetings, and they all tacitly agreed. After Li Zifeng said a few words respectfully, he excused himself to go elsewhere.
