40: Open and dark fighting
After Yue Feng heard the strange voice of yin and yang, Jian Ming frowned slightly, with a look of disgust in his expression, he could see that he knew the person, and he was very familiar with it.
After Zhan Feng saw the change in Yue Feng's expression, his palm trembled slightly, and he unknowingly put the jade slip into the white jade mirage, Jian Ming raised it slightly, his expression was a little dignified, Yue Feng's expression, and the voice with the faint smell of gunpowder in the yin and yang weird atmosphere all told him that those who came were not good and those who were good did not come.
A moment later, Guan Wu and Li Longji and the figure of an old man in gray fell opposite Zhanfeng and Yue Feng, Guan Wu stood at the front, with a funny smile on his face, while Li Longji and the old man in gray stood behind him resignedly, with their heads bowed, as if they were hiding from something.
Since Zhan Feng lived in this small courtyard, it has never been so lively today.
"Guan Wu, what did you mean by what you just said?" After seeing Guan Wu, Yue Feng's expression was cold, his eyes were staring at Guan Wu with coldness, and he asked sharply.
"Hmph, what do you mean? Guan Wu snorted coldly, swaggered a few steps, narrowed his eyes, stared at Zhan Feng, and showed a meaningful smile on his face, and his voice was slightly soft.
"What's the matter with me?" Zhan Feng rolled his eyes, it turned out that Li Longji, who was neither male nor female, was disgusting enough for him, but he didn't expect Guan Wu to be the same as Li Longji, could it be that all the Water Spirit Root Monks were like this, neither male nor female, Zhan Feng felt a chill in his heart. I don't know where I got the courage, I glanced at Guan Wu and put on an expression that I didn't bother to pay attention to you.
"Hmph! It's none of your business, only you know it in your heart, Zhanfeng, I am the Guan Wu of Shuikan Palace, and I am responsible for investigating the killing of Yang Hua. As Yang Hua's specialist, Xiao Si naturally can't escape the involvement, and now you will go back with me to be investigated. ”
Guan Wuxiu frowned, snorted coldly, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he waved his sleeves softly, and his tone was as soft as ice, which couldn't help but make people creepy.
He knew that Zhan Feng must have something to do with Yang Hua's death, after all, he also knew about Yang Hua's cultivation of demonic skills, and Zhan Feng was the assimilation target of Yang Hua's cultivation, and he knew it in his heart. The sound transmission jade talisman before Yang Hua's death can also prove that Yang Hua has been following Zhan Feng before his death, but he didn't dare to say it, the Dao and the demons are incompatible, and the famous and decent people practice demon skills, if the sect finds out that they have a relationship with the people who practice demon skills, the consequences are unimaginable, so the cause of Yang Hua's death can only be said from Zhan Feng's mouth to be able to keep them out of the matter, of course, only Zhan Feng knows why there is a reason why there is a red lotus sword qi in the place where Yang Hua died.
Whether it is from himself or the purpose of the Shuikan Palace, taking Zhanfeng back for interrogation is the only choice.
Looking at Guan Wu's domineering appearance, a cold light flashed in Yue Feng's eyes, and a wave of anger jumped on his face, he didn't expect Guan Wu, a core disciple who had just started, to be so arrogant in front of him, and just wanted to open his mouth to reprimand, but unexpectedly, Zhan Feng spoke first.
"I said, this senior brother, is there something wrong with your brain, I was already an outer disciple before I went down the mountain, and I just heard about the killing of Senior Brother Yang. Besides, although I am Senior Brother Yang's specialist, Xiao Si, I have never been to Senior Brother Yang's residence, let alone meet him, I learned everything that Senior Brother Yang explained from Senior Brother Li's mouth, and I heard Senior Brother Li say that Senior Brother Yang seems to be practicing some kind of spell, right, Senior Brother Li. ”
Looking at Guan Wusheng's appearance, Zhan Feng sneered in his heart, his black eyes turned, and his gaze shifted to Li Longji's body, the corners of his mouth bent, and the disaster led to the east, showing an expression on his face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
On the way back, Zhan Feng had already thought about how to deal with Yang Hua's death, but he didn't expect that the matter would cause a battle between the two halls of water and fire, but fortunately, Zhan Feng had evidence of Yang Hua's cultivation of magic skills, and he also knew that this was the only thing he could use to get out.
Li Longji, who was standing beside Guan Wu, saw Zhan Feng looking at him with a smile, he couldn't help but be shocked in his heart, trembling all over, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, but he was also an old man who had been in the mix for many years, and his expression was as usual in an instant, and at the same time he pretended to be angry and ruined, pointing at Zhan Feng and shouting angrily.
"Boy, don't talk nonsense, I've only seen you once, and I haven't said anything about Senior Brother Yang's cultivation. ”
At the end, he seemed to be a little weak-hearted, and he couldn't help but glance at Guan Wu.
Zhanfeng's words didn't sound like much to Yue Feng, but they had a lot of meaning to Guan Wu and Li Longji, although they were not cultivators of demonic skills, but they were accomplices in cultivating demonic skills, if people knew about it, let alone the identity of the inner disciples, I am afraid that even Xiao Si of the Kaiyang Sect would not be able to do it.
As soon as Li Longji's words fell, Guan Wu's pupils shrank suddenly, and a trace of fierceness flashed in his eyes, he felt a kind of crisis from Zhanfeng's words, but he didn't dare to make any moves when Yue Feng was present.
Compared to a real core disciple like Yue Feng, he is just an inner disciple dressed in the cloak of a core disciple, and he can't compare with Yue Feng in terms of cultivation or status.
For the subtle changes in Guan Wu and Li Longji's expressions, they naturally couldn't escape Yue Feng's eyes, and naturally they could feel the solemn smell in the air, although they were curious, they didn't speak, they just nodded slightly at Zhanfeng, with a hint of appreciation in their eyes.
"Oh, that may be my mistake, but you also said that you only met me once, everyone knows that you and Senior Brother Yang are friends and neighbors, and they have always been in and out of pairs, and even you have seen me once, which can prove that I am indeed not familiar with Senior Brother Yang, and I have never been to where he is. ”
Zhan Feng shrugged his shoulders, spread his hands, pretended to look at Li Longji apologetically, smiled slightly, and said noncommittally.
At the same time, Zhan Feng gently glanced at Guan Wu and the others, and when he saw their gloomy faces, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart, he knew that Guan Wu and Li Longji already knew the meaning of his words.
Zhan Feng also knew in his heart that Yang Hua's cultivation of demonic skills was his last barrier, but in this kind of situation, he had no other choice, and he had no choice but to make a desperate gamble when he wanted to solve it privately.
"Zhan Feng, we just ask you to go back to assist in the investigation, the time you went down the mountain is the same as the time when Senior Brother Yang went down the mountain, and during the time of his death, you are most familiar with him in the people who went down the mountain, so you are also the most suspicious, I advise you to go with us." ”
Guan Wu knew that he couldn't be entangled with Zhanfeng, according to the current form, if he was entangled, he was afraid that their affairs would be exposed, but he didn't dare to go to Yue Feng to forcibly take Zhan Feng away, after several changes in his face, he sighed slightly in his heart, glanced at Yue Feng beside him, and put on a fair look.
"Zhan Feng is a disciple of my Huolin Palace, if you want to assist in the investigation, naturally our Huolin Hall will investigate on its own, and besides, Yang Hua is also a disciple of my Huolin Palace, I don't know who allowed the investigation that Senior Brother Guan said?"
A sneer appeared at the corner of Yue Feng's mouth, and he glanced at Guan Wu and the three of them sarcastically, waved the folding fan in his hand, and shook it lightly a few times, pretending to have a puzzled look, but there was a hint of contempt in his eyes.
Yue Feng deserves to be a core disciple, his words not only pointed out that the behavior of Guan Wu and several people was not justified, but also told Guan Wu Zhanfeng that he was a member of the Huolin Palace, and if he wanted to move him, he had to see if the Huolin Hall disagreed.
"Hehe, Senior Brother Yue, I know what you mean, but the matter of the Red Lotus Sword Qi is not a private matter of your Huolin Hall family, but the official affairs of the Kaiyang Sect, and all the disciples of the Kaiyang Sect know it with their power. ”
Guan Wu smiled slightly, he had already thought of words in his heart, and immediately promoted Yang Hua's death directly to the official affairs of the sect, but this move was clever, and even Yue Feng was a little speechless.
"That, Senior Brother Guan, how did you find out that Senior Brother Yang was dead. ”
Zhan Feng's sword eyebrows frowned slightly, his mind turned, he looked at Guan Wu with a smile, a trace of cunning flashed in his eyes, he touched his chin, put on a thoughtful look, and immediately changed the topic and asked.
"I-kid, what do you mean?" Guan Wu was secretly proud, suddenly heard Zhan Feng's words, and subconsciously wanted to speak, but the words stopped when they came to his mouth, the color in his eyes flashed, and he looked at Zhan Feng with a gloomy face and asked coldly.
"It's nothing, as far as I know, during the time when Senior Brother Yang died, you also went down the mountain, since I am suspicious, what about you?"
Facing Guan Wu's gloomy expression, Zhan Feng directly ignored it, but shook his head to himself, as if he was talking to himself, and after finishing speaking, he saluted Yue Feng and said, "Senior Brother Yue, Senior Brother Yang is a disciple of my Huolin Palace, the cause of his death must be thoroughly investigated, I think the Huolin Palace should send people to thoroughly investigate all the monks who came down the mountain during that time to see what their purpose is." ”
Yue Feng was stunned for a moment, squinted at Guan Wu and the others, touched his chin and groaned, nodded lightly and said, "Well, this is a good idea, I will report it to the archdeacon in a while." ”
At this time, looking at Zhan Feng again, Yue Feng's heart gave birth to a trace of appreciation, he knew that Zhan Feng's meaning was to fight poison with poison, and Shuikan Hall checked Zhanfeng, so they would check Guan Wu and others, and act according to Shuikan Palace, Guan Wu would not have any opinions.
"Zhanfeng, what do you mean, do you think that we killed Senior Brother Yang. ”
Guan Wu's expression changed, his face was cold, he walked directly in front of Zhan Feng, stared at Zhan Feng with cold eyes, and asked through gritted teeth.
"I'm not sure, I'm just suspicious, I'm a person who cultivates the three grades of Qi and cultivates is suspected by you, are you not suspicious, or do you have an ulterior secret?"
The corners of Zhanfeng's mouth bent, not afraid of Guan Wu's cold gaze at all, his eyes narrowed, and he looked directly at Guan Wu, and at the same time clenched his hands tightly, as if he was about to make a move.
But a trace of panic suddenly flashed in Guan Wu's eyes, others may not have paid attention, and he was holding a piece of sound transmission jade talisman tightly in Zhan Feng's hand, and this sound transmission jade talisman was very familiar to him, exactly the same as the one in his storage bag.
"Let's go—" Suddenly, Guan Wu gritted his teeth and squeezed out a word from his mouth, immediately turned around, and quickly left the small courtyard regardless of the strange gazes of others.
Li Longji and the gray-clothed old man glanced at each other suspiciously, glanced at Zhan Feng curiously, and then immediately followed Guan Wu.
Yue Feng was also puzzled, holding his hands, folding a fan in his hand and holding his chin, his sword eyebrows were furrowed, and he still couldn't understand why Guan Wu left like this.
Zhan Feng also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, in fact, he was also puzzled in his heart, he didn't know what was recorded in the jade talisman, he took out the jade talisman at the risk of his identity being exposed, just thinking that the jade talisman might record their conversation, but he didn't expect Guan Wu to have such a big reaction after seeing the sound transmission jade talisman.
Seeing Guan Wu's panicked expression, Zhan Feng knew that there must be something in the jade talisman that Wu was afraid of, but he didn't plan to tell Yue Feng about it, and quietly put the jade talisman into the white jade mirage, Zhan Feng gratefully saluted Yue Feng and said, "Thank you, senior brother, for your protection." ”
"Senior brother is serious, we are all in the same breath, and it is also appropriate to help each other, but - Guan Wu has a narrow nature, I am afraid it is not a good thing to leave suddenly today, and I need to be more careful in the future, this is a sound transmission jade talisman, junior brother put it away, once you encounter something, you can stimulate the jade talisman to transmit sound to me." ”
Yue Feng held the folding fan in his right hand and gently tapped his left palm, with a look of appreciation, and took out a piece of sound transmission jade note from the storage bag to Zhan Feng, from the conversation just now, his impression of Zhan Feng has changed greatly, and Guan Wu is insidious and cunning, so he will give Zhan Feng an unexpected sound transmission jade note.
"Thank you, brother. ”
Although it was not the first time he had seen the sound transmission jade rune, Zhan Feng still looked excited, after taking the sound transmission jade rune, and began to study it, firstly, he really did not have a good eye for the sound transmission jade talisman, and secondly, in order to hide his identity, if an outer disciple sees the sound transmission jade talisman like seeing Chinese cabbage, it will definitely arouse Yue Feng's suspicion, Zhan Feng knows that the less people know about him, the better, only in this way is the safest.
Although Yue Feng doesn't look like a bad person, as the saying goes, knowing people and knowing faces doesn't know their hearts, once they touch the issue of interests, they will become enemies, and if they have the same interests, even enemies will become friends.
People's hearts are greedy, even immortal cultivators can't get rid of this innate thing, it's just that some people can restrain it, and some people can't.
Zhan Feng also felt a lot along the way, he understood that if he wanted to take revenge, he must cultivate immortals, and if he wanted to cultivate immortals, he must first learn to protect himself, only in this way can he complete his obsession.
Looking at Zhanfeng's excited appearance, Yue Feng smiled slightly, and the folding fan in his hand danced lightly without saying anything.
Originally, he was just ordered to take care of Zhan Feng to avoid the crime that Guan Wu wanted to add, but he didn't expect that Zhan Feng was thoughtful, even in front of Guan Wu, he did not show weakness, vaguely, Yue Feng was a little admired, looking at the outside, I am afraid that Zhan Feng is the only one who can confront the inner disciples, although he has his support, but the momentum between the words is Zhan Feng's own.
Yue Feng secretly appreciated it in his heart, and at the same time, he also had a hint of friendship.
Cultivating immortals is to go against the sky, if you have scruples in everything, you are destined to achieve nothing, only the mind is firm, stick to yourself can go against the sky, cultivate yourself and become immortals, but now how many people can stick to themselves?
In a daze, Yue Feng shook his head secretly, sticking to nature and doing what he wanted to do, it was easy to say, but it was so difficult to do.
Zhanfeng's unyielding and unafraid of power character vaguely triggered Yue Feng's deep thinking, and he admired Zhanfeng while also envying Zhanfeng.
