Chapter 258: Bright Tide and Undercurrent
Uncle Wang was not worried about the situation in the village, and ran in alone regardless of the obstacles, Li Zifeng didn't say anything, the danger in the village has been basically eliminated, besides, it is much easier to find the secret cellar with Uncle Wang to guide the way.
The group followed Uncle Wang's guidance and came to the approximate location of the dark cellar, which is located in the deepest part of Jiuyuan Village, there are no habitable houses, the terrain is flat, weeds are everywhere, and a poplar tree is sparsely planted, the leaves of the poplar tree are yellow, and under the sunlight, it is even more dead.
"Thereβ" Uncle Wang pointed to a small clearing where weeds were obviously scarce, and said as he took the lead and walked over.
Li Zifeng heard an unusual voice and shouted, "Be careful!"
Shen Hongfei reacted quickly, and hurriedly stepped forward to pull Uncle Wang back, only to see that the ground that Uncle Wang was stepping on just now had a board slightly raised, and several sharp arrows shot straight out, flying to the side, and deeply inserted into the trunk of the poplar tree.
A few shadows flickered, Shen Hongfei protected Uncle Wang, and the others clenched the weapons in their hands and entered a state of readiness, saying that it was too late and that was fast, several black shadows flew out, and several people drew out their long swords to fight with them, and under the shadow of the sword, large pieces of withered yellow leaves fell one after another. In less than half a pillar of incense, all the men in black were solved.
Li Zifeng's shoulder was simply bandaged, the wound collapsed again, and the blood couldn't stop flowing out, Shen Zhiping hurriedly sealed the acupoints around the wound to temporarily stop the bleeding.
"How are you?" Ling Xi tore off a strip of cloth from the corner of his clothes and strengthened Li Zifeng's wound.
Shen Hongfei squinted, pretending to be eating, "Hey, I still have wounds on my body! Why don't I see you paying attention?"
Shen Zhiping smiled helplessly, Li Zifeng's ears were red, and Ling Xi said anxiously, "The wound on your body is shallow, you don't have to be deep Zifeng's wound, you bear with it first, and I'll go back and deal with it for you." β
"Yo! have you changed your name to Zifeng?" Shen Hongfei clasped his hands in front of him, squinting his eyes slightly.
"Brother Shen, don't be busy making fun of us, finding Miss Duanmu is the most important thing right now. β
Under the guidance of Uncle Wang, he successfully found the secret door of the secret cellar, the tunnel was very dark, and he couldn't see his five fingers, Shen Zhiping lit the fire fold in his hand, the flames flickered, spreading out a dim circle of light, and several people walked slowly down the stone steps, and after a while, they came to a spacious space, and bursts of fermented wine came to their nostrils.
Several people walked in, and a person appeared in front of them, and by the dim light they could barely see a woman kneeling and sitting, her hair was a little scattered, but she was not embarrassed at all, her clothes were quite neat, her hands and feet were bound by chains, and her mouth was also sealed, and she was crying helplessly at this time. The fire fold got closer, and finally saw clearly.
This woman is the daughter of the Duanmu family, Duanmu is green!
Looking ahead, everyone's faces were a little ugly, they originally really thought that there was really a plague outbreak in Jiuyuan Village, if it weren't for Li Zifeng's repeated insistence, they would almost give up. After entering the village, it was discovered that this was the temporary secret stronghold where Lingye Palace kidnapped Miss Duanmu, and if she really gave up, Miss Duanmu might be transferred to Suffocation, and it would be difficult to find it again.
That Duanmu Fengxun will be tied, and they will lose the powerful assistant of the Duanmu family.
Shen Hongfei stepped forward and tore open the cloth strip sealed on Duanmu Luoqing's mouth, Duanmu Luoqing saw a few people coming, due to the dim light, she could only take a general look, especially when she saw Li Zifeng's black cloth wrapped in eyes, she suddenly showed a look of horror and cried, "Don't come here!"
"How can I save you if I don't go over!" Shen Hongfei said impatiently, pulling out the short knife he carried with him, and cutting the iron chain that bound Duanmu Luoqing's hands and feet in a few strokes.
Duanmu Luoqing trembled and curled up in the corner, his beautiful eyes watery as he watched, but he refused to move. Shen Hongfei didn't have the heart to spend any more time with this eldest lady, so he turned around and walked out of the cellar. Li Zifeng sighed slightly, and instructed Drifting Cloud Dao Shenyu, "Help Miss Duanmu out, and be careful not to fall." β
Duanmu Luoqing was slightly stunned, Li Zifeng was blindfolded, he couldn't recognize it for a while, but his voice was calm and powerful, and gentle, which made her heartstrings move, and she faintly realized that Li Zifeng might not really be dead.
After Shen Hong flew out, he stepped aside and watched from a distance, Li Zifeng walked forward with a blind cane, accompanied by Shen Zhiping and Lingxi, and the clouds and rain helped Duanmu Luoqing to follow behind.
There were earth-shaking tigers on both sides of the drifting clouds and heavy rain, and followed Li Zifeng and his party to the entrance of the village, Shen Zhiping arranged a carriage, and sent Qingying to drive in person, secretly protected by two shadow attendants, and sent Duanmu Luoqing back to his house.
Duanmu Luoqing had been staring at Li Zifeng's back, not noticing Shen Hongfei and Lingxi who were waiting far away, she hesitated and opened her mouth to ask, "This... Childe, do we know each other?"
Li Zifeng's figure paused slightly, turned to look at Duanmu Luoqing's position, and deliberately thickened his voice, "The girl recognized the wrong person?"
Duanmu Luoqing's eyes were sour, and he was dizzy again, "Don't you really know me?" You are very similar to the Li Gongzi I know, I wonder if Gongzi can take off the black cloth that wraps his eyes and let me... Take a look..."
Li Zifeng sighed slightly, "My eyes are blind, and I am very ugly, I am afraid of scaring Miss." In Xia Mufeng, he is not the Li Gongzi in the mouth of the young lady. "Mu Feng is Li Zifeng's pseudonym when he goes out on secret errands.
Duanmu Luoqing got into the carriage disappointed, and Qingying set off with the carriage, and the horse's hooves stepped on the dirt and gradually moved away.
"Hey, don't you really recognize it?" Lingxi walked over at some point, giggling and quipping, "Miss Duanmu thinks you are thinking about it!
"Miss Duanmu..."Li Zifeng was helpless and paused, "It's really a little difficult." β
Jiuyuan Village returned to tranquility, and Uncle Wang knelt on the ground with the few remaining village names, kowtowed to thank the Black-Eyed Man and the others, and begged Li Zifeng to rescue the other villagers who were lucky to survive after being captured. Li Zifeng couldn't bear Uncle Wang's gift anymore, so he hurriedly helped him up, "Don't be like this, get up." I promise you. β
A 'promise' was answered happily, this promise seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and it was pressed on the bottom of Li Zifeng's heart, and it was also what they should do, what Li Zifeng didn't expect was that when he followed the clues to rescue the other surviving villagers of Jiuyuan Village, he inadvertently discovered a shocking secret, the main physical evidence of King Qingping's rebellion!
After the arrangement was perfected, Li Zifeng and his party left Jiuyuan Village, and the Sky Shaking Tiger was escorted by the shadow guards, walking very reluctantly, and his strong body kept tossing.
Shen Hongfei frowned and glared fiercely, "This guy is very noisy, and he won't say anything, why don't you use the method of disposing of Ling Jue and hand him over to my father?"
Li Zifeng's face was calm, "There is no need to trouble the Shen Pavilion Lord in this matter, the Heaven Shaking Tiger is also famous in the Ling Ye Palace, no more than that Ling Jue, he has a little more anger." β
"What a burden, or I'd have killed him. Shen Hongfei gestured to kill someone, but it had no effect on the Sky Shaking Tiger.
Shen Hongfei had no choice but to put down his hand and asked Li Zifeng for help, "Then what do you say?"
The corners of Li Zifeng's mouth hooked up an imperceptible smile, "Untie up, let go!"
Shen Zhiping instantly understood what Li Zifeng meant, and smiled knowingly, Shen Hongfei was confused, and opened his mouth wide, "What did you say? let him go? You don't have a fever, right?"
Li Zifeng slapped Shen Hongfei's hand away, "Don't worry, I'm very sober, it's just a personal favor." β
Shen Zhiping smiled on the side and said nothing, Shen Hongfei and Lingxi waited for Li Zifeng's next words for some reason.
Li Zifeng waved his hand, signaled the clouds and heavy rain to escort the Tianzhen Tiger to his side, and said to the Tianzhen Tiger intentionally or unintentionally, "As the saying goes, if you don't fight, you don't know each other, you and I know each other, I want to sell you a favor, you say yes?"
The Sky Shaking Tiger trembled, feeling like he had fallen into some trap, "You don't want to use any method to get words out of my mouth, I won't say anything!"
Li Zifeng looked at the Sky Shaking Tiger amusedly, "Did I say I wanted to ask you anything?" Don't worry, I just want to give you a ride, and then let you go back to tell your master everything that happened in Jiuyuan Village just now." β
Dark clouds covered the sun, the sky suddenly darkened, the summer breeze blew, it was a little cool, the chest of the Sky Shaking Tiger seemed to be grabbed, sullenly breathless, from the bottom of the heart bursts of coolness, the body trembled slightly uncontrollably.
Li Zifeng continued, "I can't hear you speak, so I just assume that you approve of my idea. Li Zifeng suddenly made a move and grabbed the wrist of the Sky Shaking Tiger, "Your pulse is unstable, you seem to be very excited." β
The Sky Shaking Tiger suddenly stopped, saying that he would not go any further, and was completely dragged by the clouds and heavy rain, and his voice was trembling, "Please let me go! We are just following orders to arrest the common people, I don't know what they want to do!"
Shen Hongfei looked at it incredulously, and after thinking for a while, he finally understood Li Zifeng's intentions, the people in the position of the hall master of the Lingye Palace were never afraid of death, nor were they afraid of being threatened, what they were afraid of was the means of the charm.
Li Zifeng was tepid, "Then what do you know?"
"I know that this matter seems to be related to Hongyuan Villa, and their young owner is also involved in this matter, before our Internal Affairs Hall sent people to cooperate with the Cold Rain Protector to control Hongyuan Villa. β
Li Zifeng's brows suddenly tightened......
