Chapter 149: Drifting Clouds and Heavy Rain
In the inner hall of Luhua Pavilion, the medicinal gas was full of nostrils, stimulating every inch of Li Zifeng's body, especially his nose, which made him dizzy. I didn't expect Uncle Lu to have a better medicinal taste here than Danfang. He endured the discomfort and patiently watched Lu Shiqing carefully study the almonds he had taken.
Li Zifeng originally hurriedly took the almonds and came back, and was going to do the duty of a disciple to serve tea to Ouyang Ze, but he didn't expect Ouyang Ze's study to be closed, and he was also stopped outside by the guards, saying that the head of the house was talking to people, and no one was allowed to enter without being summoned.
Li Zifeng paused with his hand holding the teacup, and suddenly understood everything in his heart, presumably Ouyang Ze and Xu Zining were doing some 'past things' with him, thinking of a series of incidents caused by his concealment of his life experience, he couldn't help but shudder in his heart, he understood that Ouyang Ze hated deception the most on weekdays, and he couldn't help but worry in his heart.
Worrying is also useless, so he can only be in a hurry, it is better to ask Uncle Lu to help check the almonds first, so he came to Luhua Pavilion like this.
Lu Shiqing looked at it for a long time, but he didn't find any problems, and sighed lightly, "This bitter almond has the effect of lowering gas and relieving cough when eaten in dose, but it can't be excessive, otherwise, it will be poison, and there is nothing else." It's normal. ”
Lu Shiqing said that, looked at Li Zifeng, only to see that Li Zifeng had been in a trance, coughing lightly, Li Zifeng came back to his senses, smiled, and asked, "In other words, this almond is fine?"
"Of course. Lu Shiqing feigned anger and said, "I hurriedly returned to the mountain, and as soon as I came back from the master's life, I was entangled by you to study this normal almond, but I didn't expect you to fall into a trance." ”
"I'm sorry, Uncle Shi, the disciple just thought of something else. ”
Lu Shiqing was noncommittal, and quipped, "I think you're worried about your junior brother, right?"
Li Zifeng smiled awkwardly, "Uncle Shi, I'm just worried about the ...... of the 'second son'"
Lu Shiqing deliberately ignored the emotions that Li Zifeng deliberately hid in his eyes, and couldn't help but sneer, "It's really stubborn." I'll see how long you can last. ”
Li Zifeng was dumbfounded, his expression froze on his face instantly, Lu Shiqing glanced over, and sighed helplessly, "Don't worry, Zining will have nothing to do, the head of the family still cares about the brotherhood of the master, and on your ancestor's side, he will definitely try his best to persuade him, but you, who have lived all these years, are not ghosts." Are you going to be decadent forever?"
Li Zifeng was stunned for a moment, opened his mouth, and finally didn't say anything, after being silent for a long time, Li Zifeng saw that Lu Shiqing had nothing else to say, and hurriedly put away the bag of almonds, and was about to take them, but Lu Shiqing stepped forward to stop them, "Keep these almonds behind! It's useless for you to keep them, just give me a study of the poison antidote, maybe it will be of great use......?"
Li Zifeng's expression was awe-inspiring, "Thank you, uncle." ”
......
When I returned to the courtyard, the sun was already shining, and it was rare for a touch of sunset to rise in the mountains, red and bright, very charming, Li Zifeng looked at the sky, it was not yet time for dinner, and Ouyang Ze did not need anyone for the time being, so he was ready to go back to the house to rest, change clothes, and then go to the kitchen to get dinner.
As soon as he entered the small study, he found that there was something wrong with the breath, could it be that Qingyun was not used to the life of the Rite Hall and ran back? Li Zifeng was suddenly startled, with intuition, his conjecture was not right, the first is that Qingyun never plays hide and seek with himself, and second, and more importantly, there is more than one breath in the study out of thin air.
Li Zifeng only hesitated for a while, then walked peacefully to the table and lit the candle, the candle flame 'crackled', releasing a circle of light, trying to illuminate every inch of the study. Li Zifeng sat in front of the bookcase, casually flipped through some official documents about Hongyuan Villa, and said intentionally or unintentionally, "I've been hiding, it's really embarrassing for you, your shadow guards are really patient." ”
Ever since the incident of the shadow guard's black clothes, Li Zifeng has been very concerned about the shadow guards, and he cares that they are secretly watching everything about him, and then report it to Ouyang Ze. Thinking of this, Li Zifeng clenched the teacup tightly and said coldly, "Do you still want me to invite you out?"
The candle flame shook in a slightly invisible state, and then the two black-clothed men gradually appeared, walked in front of Li Zifeng, knelt on one knee, and saluted, "Subordinate Shadow Guard Piaoyun and Shen Yu pay their respects to Gongzi." ”
It's a respectful and polite shadow guard, not like the black clothes before... Li Zifeng was in a trance, and suddenly came back to his senses, drifting clouds and heavy rain? Li Zifeng lowered his head, wanting to see if it was them, and the two of them raised their heads in unison.
The two of them are Shadow Guard Piaoyun and Shen Yu, when Li Zifeng was the chief disciple before, Ouyang Ze assigned them to Li Zifeng's side to secretly protect them, and then when something happened, they returned to the Shadow Guard team again, waiting for a new task. The shadow guard, who has never had any personal feelings and is businesslike, has often thought of Li Zifeng over the years, especially after learning that he is still alive, and he is looking forward to the head of the family to let go of the past and return to Li Zifeng to perform tasks again. Expectation is just expectation, they never thought that this day would really come.
Li Zifeng looked at them in a daze, looked at them in a daze, couldn't help but be excited in his heart, and quickly stood up and helped them up, "Don't be polite, you... How did you come here?"
Piaoyun and Shen Yu understood that Li Zifeng was worried that they would act without authorization for their own disobedience, so Shen Yu bowed his hand, "Childe, relax, we are going to Childe's side on the orders of the master......"
Piaoyun listened and glanced at Shen Yu, he understood how much Li Zifeng resisted the head Ouyang Ze in his heart, saying this would only make Li Zifeng think that they were sent by Ouyang Ze to monitor.
Shen Yu came back to his senses and hurriedly surrendered his hand to plead guilty, "Childe, my subordinates lost their words." ”
Li Zifeng smiled indifferently, "It's okay, there is no need to have any taboos in me, I believe in you." ”
"Thank you, childe. ”
Li Zifeng sighed heavily, "What did the head of the family tell you?"
Piaoyun replied truthfully, "Return to Childe's side and secretly protect your safety." And always at your command. ”
Li Zifeng groaned in a low voice, presumably for the poisoning a few days ago, and secretly sighed that this was a good opportunity. Then he looked at the sky outside and said, "You guys do me a favor first." ”
"Childe, please. The two bowed and waited.
Li Zifeng looked solemn, approached the two, and whispered something in their ears, and then, the two of them commanded, "Don't worry, Childe." ”
The candle flame flickered slightly, and the clouds and heavy rain disappeared again......
