Chapter 225: The Roots
In order to hide people's eyes, Ouyang Ze and his entourage, under the arrangement of Duanmu Fengxun, came to the inner hall located in the backyard of Hengxiang Inn, which is a place to entertain distinguished guests, and it is located in a quiet place, and no one is allowed to trespass without the permission of the host.
The room is spacious and bright, the environment is quiet, but Lan Ying is uncomfortable.
"Master..."Lan Ying opened his dry mouth, raised his head to meet Ouyang Ze's unkind gaze, and there were two cold-faced secret guards next to him, and their bodies were stiff and kneeling on the ground, not daring to move.
"According to the rules, I shouldn't ask where the disciples of your Foreign Affairs Hall are going to carry out their missions. But when it comes to the interests of the Hengshan faction, I can't ignore it. Ouyang Ze had been expressionless when he said these words.
Lan Ying couldn't help but shudder, dodging Ouyang Ze's aggressive gaze, and replied in a respectful manner, "Master, disciple... but he was ordered to go out and deliver letters to the halls. ”
"Go on. Ouyang Ze said this firmly, a simple task of delivering a letter, Shang Huaifeng could not go there in person.
Firmly locked by Ouyang Ze's gaze, Lan Ying suddenly felt that the originally bright and comfortable sunlight had become a little dazzling, and her mind kept flashing, "No, that's all." ”
"How many years have you been getting started?"
Lan Ying was unaware of Ouyang Ze's question, and replied honestly, "Back to the master, by the end of summer this year, it has been six years since the disciple started. ”
Ouyang Ze sneered, "I remember it quite clearly, but why can't I remember this rule?"
Ouyang Ze waved his hand, and Wufeng said, "The rules of the Hengshan faction, the head of the sect must answer truthfully when he asks, if there is deception, he can be punished according to the crime of betrayal, the light one will be assigned to the north peak or expelled from the sect, and the heavy one..." ”
Lan Ying shook unconsciously, swallowed his saliva, and forced himself to calm down, "Master Xie mentions, it's just that the disciple really only has this one thing, and nothing else." ”
Ouyang Ze's cold gaze stared at Lan Ying tightly, and said faintly, "I will send someone to complete the task of delivering letters to the various halls this time, and as for the future, someone will also take over from you." Find a place where no one is there and kill you!" his tone was indifferent, and he didn't blink his eyes.
After speaking, he waved his hand. The two of them immediately stepped forward to hold Lan Ying, grabbed his arm and were about to drag him out, cold sweat oozed from Lan Ying's forehead, he didn't want to disobey Shang Huaifeng's order, but the next moment he saw that he was going to die because of this, he would rather die in the battle against the evil party than die so cowardly.
Lan Ying's mind spun rapidly, and finally when he was dragged to the door, he put his feet against the threshold and said to Ouyang Ze lightly, "Master Rongyu, there is a blind man, maybe it has something to do with what you asked." ”
Ouyang Ze was stunned, his chest throbbed violently, and he waved his hand again, and the two dragged Lan Ying back. Ouyang Ze stepped forward and stared at him deadly, and said in a deep voice, "Tell me the truth!"
Hengshan faction
The sky and the earth are gloomy, the mountain wind hunts, blowing the corners of the clothes and fluttering with the wind, although it is still noon, but under the accumulation of dark clouds, it is still gloomy, and the slightly shaded room must be lit up to see clearly. At this time, Xu Zining stood in the front yard of Yuntian Pavilion and confronted Qingyun for a while.
Xu Zining sighed helplessly, if he said that Qingyun was not sensible, it would be against his heart. Qingyun has passed the study of the Rite Hall, in terms of knowledge and swordsmanship, he has far surpassed the children of the same class, successfully passed the entrance assessment, and temporarily lived in Yuntian Pavilion to wait for deployment.
Qing Yun is about to be in the first year, but his face is full of stubbornness, he really looks like a senior brother, Xu Zining shook his head and continued to persuade patiently, "Does Qing Yun know what I am going to do?"
"I know, Uncle Ning's trip down the mountain is on a mission. Qingyun nodded solemnly, since learning the news of Li Zifeng, Qingyun seems to have grown a lot overnight, no longer has the mind of playing, and his clear eyes are much deeper.
"Then you're going to follow. Xu Zining looked at the sky, he really didn't have time to spend it anymore.
Xu Weixiang packed up and walked out of the door, but the sight of a large and a small confrontation in the courtyard, Xu Zining had already looked at his side, and it was not appropriate to enter the house again, so he walked over and said hello, "Second son, I will wait for you at the first mountain gate." ”
"Qingyun can be a helper somewhat. There are some things that are much easier to clean. Waiting for Xu Weixiang to go away, Qingyun continued, "Uncle Ning's trip is full of dangers, even if Qingyun stays on the mountain, he will not feel at ease. ”
Compared with Qingyun being so sensible, Xu Zining would like to see him coquettish and playful. Xu Zining patted Qingyun's shoulder, "Look, since you enter the door of the Hengshan faction, you have to listen to the elders, don't you?"
Qingyun didn't disobey the teacher's words, Qingyun went to ask Elder Suyan, and Elder Suyan had already agreed. ”
Xu Zining's eyes widened, and he looked at Qingyun incredulously, "Then tell me, how did you ask for it?"
"Uncle had an accident, Qingyun can no longer let Uncle Ning be in a dangerous situation and remain indifferent. ”
A ray of sunlight passed through the thick clouds, sprinkling a faint light, and the heavens and the earth lit up instantly, Xu Zining rubbed his sore and moist eyes, and gently pinched Qingyun's shoulder.
The blue brick wall is two feet high, and the plaque above a heavy black iron door is vigorously inscribed with three words: 'Jingxin Yuan'.
The name of the courtyard is elegant, the stone tables and stone benches, wells, green plants and other arrangements in the courtyard are no different from ordinary courtyards, if it is not for the iron fence separating the outside world from the outside, and the hidden guard masters outside the courtyard, others will definitely regard this place as an elegant small residence suitable for recuperation. But this is actually a prison cell, which is dedicated to the high-level prisoners of the Hengshan faction.
Because of a frame-up, Li Zifeng came in, and now it is another persecution, and the deacon elder Xiang Feng's personal disciple He Yi came in, and in the same way, the deacon elder's personal disciple was just once. The difference is that in the future, He Yi will never have a chance to turn over.
He Yi sat at the stone table, letting Lu Shiqing check his pulse, for a long time, Lu Shiqing let go of his hand and sighed slightly, "You have to relax, otherwise how can your body get better?"
After being locked in for more than half a year, He Yi's mood has been low, his mental state is not very good, and he has lost a lot of weight, and he can't see what he looked like when he jumped into the ring to compete.
Lu Shiqing took out a bottle of antidote pill and handed it to He Yi, "The toxins in the body have been basically controlled, but the medicine needs to be taken for a month depending on the situation, there should be no problem." From Ming'er onwards, the Yaodan Elders would often come to check the pulse. ”
He Yi lightly opened his chapped lips, "Are you going out?" As soon as the words came out, He Yi regretted it, he was a prisoner, what qualifications did he have to ask?
Lu Shiqing didn't seem to mind, but his eyebrows were a little deep, "Yes, before leaving, come and see you." ”
He Yi was not confused, when he heard Lu Shiqing say this, he immediately understood something, and asked tentatively, "Do you have something to ask?"
Lu Shiqing didn't beat around the bush, "Do you know a place called Xiyuan Town?"
"Xiyuan Town?!" He Yi seemed to be frightened, "Are you going to Xiyuan Town?"
Lu Shiqing raised his eyebrows slightly, and looked at He Yi with a little more probing, "You know?"
He Yi's expression was slightly painful, and his body couldn't help but tremble slightly, "I've heard the Eagle Falcon mention it before..."
He Yi clearly remembers that when the eagle falcon threatened each other with his family, he mentioned that his family was locked up in a place called 'Luoxi Village' west of Xiyuan Town.
When he came back to his senses, he saw Lu Shiqing looking at him with burning eyes, and continued, "Xiyuan Town is the place where the Eagle Falcon is holding my family, and I used to think that none of this mattered, so I didn't say it, and I didn't mean to hide it. ”
Lu Shiqing put away the medicine box with an inexplicable expression, "Then can you tell me about it now?"
"I don't know much, only a place called Luoxi Village. When the falcon threatened me before, I repeatedly mentioned Luoxi Village. ”
"Luoxi Village..."Lu Shiqing repeated in a low voice, silently noting down this place.
