Chapter 127: Lost
Duanmu Mansion of Wei'an City
In the spacious and bright study, Duanmu Fengxun sat slightly lazily in his chair, holding a scroll in his hand, listening to his henchmen replying to the news and instructions from above.
Finally patiently listened to the last one, the attendant quietly exited the room, Duanmu Fengxun sighed tiredly, rubbed his temples, and was about to close his eyes to recuperate, but found a figure at the door shaking like nothing, so he threw down the scroll in his hand and scolded, "There are no rules!"
The man finally appeared, walked in front of Duanmu Fengxun and saluted his subordinates, it was Yinguang who had been sent out to kill Li Zifeng's black-clothed entourage before, Yinguang knelt on one knee and buried his head very low, "My subordinates are not doing their jobs well, please punish the head of the family." ”
Duanmu Fengxun's expression froze, and he said in surprise, "Oh?
Yinguang sighed and buried his head lower, "The subordinates were clumsy, so he lost his trace in Wei'an City, but since he was a person from Li Gongzi's side, his subordinates went to Yeyang City to track, and in a dark corner, his subordinates found his traces, but before his subordinates could make a move, another black-clothed masked man made a move, and killed him with a very fast technique." The methods are extremely cruel. ”
"What?" Duanmu Feng was surprised, "Do you know who did it?"
Yin Guang continued to reply, "Later, my subordinates secretly followed him for a while, and when I saw him going in the direction outside the city, my subordinates didn't dare to follow him for fear of being exposed. ”
Duanmu Fengxun pondered for a while, then waved his hand to signal the hidden light to retreat. Duanmu Fengxun picked up the teacup and took a sip of the tea that was already cold, but before the tea could be swallowed, Duanmu Luoqing trotted all the way over, "Daddy." ”
Seeing his beloved daughter, Duanmu Fengxun disappeared even if he had more worries, and let Duanmu Luoqing sit beside him, "Daddy, what did you just say? Did Li Gongzi have an accident?"
Duanmu Feng nodded her forehead dotingly, "I just separated from him for a few days, and I missed him again? Why doesn't Qing'er know to be reserved? I really spoil you." ”
"Oops... Daddy. Duanmu Luo's white and tender hands kept wrapping around the braids hanging in front of him, round and round, and then grabbed his sleeves and kept shaking, "Is it Li Gongzi who had an accident?"
Duanmu Fengxun smiled lovingly, "Qing'er, don't worry, Gongzi Li has returned to the Hengshan faction well, and he is safe, just now my father was talking about something else with the guards." ”
"Oh. That's fine. After receiving the reply, he still shook Duanmu Fengxun's sleeve unrelentingly, "Then Daddy, if there is any news of him in the future, will you tell the little girl?"
"Nonsense!" Duanmu Fengxun scolded with a smile, "Last time, you followed Li Gongzi to Yeyang City without authorization, and you almost let the people of Lingye Palace catch you, how much trouble did you cause to others?"
Besides, if you get news about Li Zifeng in the future, most of it will be a business matter, how can you tell her in detail one by one, Duanmu Fengxun shook his head helplessly.
Duanmu Luoqing pursed his lips and said angrily, "If you don't say it, you won't say it! Why are you so stingy?"
Duanmu Fengxun feigned anger and said, "This girl...", and then summoned a henchman guard, and instructed him to protect the safety of the young lady.
Mozhou Luojiabao
Xu Zining sat in a still bright room, facing the black cloak, sitting from night to noon, the spices in the stove burned, turning into green smoke and slowly rising.
Leng Wuhei didn't ask anything more. It's just that Xu Zining felt dizzy in his brain, and it seemed that he was out of control, he supported his head with one hand, and his eyelids drooped slightly, but as soon as he closed his eyes, some things from his childhood would appear in front of him, he knew that it was an illusion, but he still felt that it was very real.
"Ping'er, come, come to my mother......" A voice was faint, from far to near.
Xu Zining bit the tip of his tongue and forced himself to wake up, his breathing was slightly heavy, and there was already a slight cold sweat on his forehead, "What did you do to me?"
Leng Wuhei suddenly became extremely gentle, "I'm helping you! Help you recall the events of your childhood, maybe I can help you find the murderer of your father!"
Xu Zining pinched the tea cup tightly, there seemed to be a fire burning in his body, for a long time, there was a crisp sound, the tea cup was crushed by Xu Zining, his body was shattered, and bright red blood gushed out along his fingers......
Stimulated by this pain, Xu Zining completely sobered up, and the scene that had been hovering in his mind was completely shattered, the room was still the same room, his cold eyes were still cold, Xu Zining adjusted his breathing steadily, and looked at the blood on his hand casually, "I'm sorry, I crushed a tea bowl for you." ”
Leng Wuhei sneered, and then extinguished the fireworks of the stove, "It's just a useless tea bowl, if it breaks, it will break! ”
Xu Zining took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped the blood on his hands, "Why are you so curious about me, could it be that you have done something bad and want to find the answer on my body?"
Xu Zining knew that the reaction just now was related to the spices burned in the furnace, and he had to admit that he was almost controlled by the ecstasy just now, and said everything he witnessed when he was a child, but fortunately, Leng Wuhei mentioned the murderer of his father and mother, which made him suddenly resentful, and then crushed the teacup, cut his fingers, and let the pain force him to wake up. Speaking of thanking him, Xu Zining couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
Just then, a black-clothed attendant came in and said, "Chief, someone from there is here." ”
"Oh?" Leng Wuhei suddenly came to his senses, "Where are the people?"
The black-clothed squire replied respectfully, "Waiting in the hall." ”
"Good. The black cloak smiled, and then said to Xu Zining, "I still have something to do, so I'll miss it first." Come on! Entertain Xu Gongzi well, and don't abuse him. ”
"Yes. ”
"No need!" Xu Zining stood up, "Uncle Shi needs manpower there, it's better for me to go back and help." ”
Leng Wuhei's eyes exuded a chill, "I can rest assured that you stay here honestly, and besides, the conversation between us is not over yet." ”
Xu Zining's eyes were cold, and he seemed to smile and said, "But I have nothing to talk to you about, if you continue to talk, I'm afraid that your life will not be guaranteed." ”
Leng Wuhei was not angered by his words, and seemed to appreciate it a little, Xu Zining frowned, puzzled. Leng Wuhei didn't say anything more, turned around and left with the attendant, and the door closed again.
Xu Zining frowned slightly, observing the figures coming and going outside through the closed window. Then he came to the incense burner, then twisted some of the remaining powder, wrapped it in a handkerchief and put it on his body.
