Wen Zhiliang's tone was gentle, his eyes were obsessively looking at the pattern that only had a rough outline, and his expression was not as sharp and vicious as Fang Cai, decisive and ruthless, but he was a little more looking forward to gentleness.

Li Xunli's eyes were slightly closed, and he opened his eyes that were about to close, and looked at the surrounding scene vaguely.

Although Li Xunli does not talk about knowing Wen Zhiliang quite well, he has assisted Wen Zhiliang for many years, and he still knows a little about his temperament. In the past, Wen Zhiliang's words were to peep into the hearts of others and see the millions of desires in the world, as for the killing of the gods, they were all done by ordinary thugs such as Wen Zhiliang and Wang Yucheng, and the other Li Xunli did not know in detail. What is just to see one person, what infatuation many words Li Xunli is also puzzled.

Wen Zhiliang saw the dragon and phoenix in the air take shape, and the smile in his eyes was even worse, so he groped in his arms for a moment and took out a painting. The scroll is quaint, with a faint yellowing all around, and the upper and lower wooden scrolls are worn and rotten at both ends, showing that it has passed a long time. He was about to use his own unique method of mental vision to see the truth, but at the moment his body was weak and weak, and his vision was blurred, and he could only faintly see a confused humanoid outline in the painting.

Li Zhiyu could hear vaguely words in a daze, but he didn't know anything about the surrounding situation. With the passage of time, the body has no reaction to the surroundings, the eyes are struggling to narrow a thin slit, and only a picture is seen in the haze, when following the scene, the surroundings are hidden in a haze, how can not see the real, he wants to see but can't.

Li Zhiyu was suspicious, he walked quickly, wanting to find the root cause and see what was going on, but there seemed to be a willingness in the dark to prevent himself from delving into the situation. He couldn't advance or retreat, and he was puzzled. If you want to go forward to find its root cause but can't enter, if you want to retreat, you can retreat, but when you are behind, the path has been hidden in the vastness, and Li Zhiyu has a difficulty in his heart.

"Little layman, I beg you to ignite one person, now is the time, don't miss this opportunity. Li Zhiyu listened to someone in the world who suddenly spoke, and he was both afraid and afraid. Since there was no way forward and backward, he could only sigh and squat in the middle, and follow the prestige, only to see a white-clothed Taoist priest stepping into the void.

The Taoist priest is still dressed in white, but the embroidered pattern on the clothes is different from the previous sleeve Yin and Yang gossip, when you look closely, you can only see a hideous dragon, a black phoenix around a vague phantom constantly swimming and turning. As for the embroidered pattern in the middle, it still seems to be very blurry, vaguely like a woman.

Li Zhiyu saw the old Taoist priest coming out of nowhere, and he was particularly surprised in his heart. I wanted to ask what I should do to get out of this and ignite Wen Zhiliang, but my throat moved lightly, but I couldn't speak. The Taoist priest smiled slightly, looking at the young man's eyes with a little trepidation, he smiled and said, "When you can speak, you will speak." After the Taoist priest finished speaking, he slowly disappeared into the endless void.

Li Zhiyu was in a difficult situation, how to let himself just look and not say, but why he didn't know why, when he thought about it carefully, he found that he had come to a realm that was both vague and familiar.

The night was cold and silent. Li Zhiyu felt sad in his heart, and he didn't wait to look at the surrounding scenery carefully, he just thought that he was still walking back and forth in that painting, so he had to look at the vast night around him in a daze and ponder.

"How the little brother sleeps here. In the middle of the night, the wind is cold, and there is neither the bright moon to lyric poetry, nor the river to write its painting. Could it be that this large field also hides poetry and writings, as well as the writings of sages. Someone said suddenly, with a slight smile in his voice.

Since Li Zhiyu pondered the words of the Taoist priest, he didn't care about the surrounding scenes. He faintly heard someone talking, his expression changed, and he panicked.

He looked at the surrounding scene in a panic, and his heart was terrified, how did he come to this Luohu Village again! He looked at it in a panic, and his body retreated slightly. Look at this teenager who suddenly spoke. Although the surrounding light is hazy, when you look closely, you can see its outline. When he saw the man's face clearly, Li Zhiyu's expression was full of surprise, as if he didn't believe it. He wiped his eyes again and looked around, although the surrounding scenery was slightly blurred in the hazy night, but the ground under his feet was so close that he couldn't figure out. He looked at it for a moment, and the surrounding land was no different from that of Naluohu Village.

The young man was particularly surprised in his heart, and his fingers grabbed the soil under him in a panic, only to feel that the ground was very soft, and put it in front of his nose and sniffed it with three points of moisture in the slippery. The young man has lived in seclusion with Zhao Shuli for a long time, making a living by farming and striking iron, and he is naturally familiar with the acres of land, carefully distinguishing the taste, and already knows three points in his heart. When I took a closer look at the place where I was lying, I found that it was actually the place where I met Stephen Lee and his son before. When he looked at the young man in front of him, his eyebrows were vaguely familiar, and the person who spoke to him was clearly Li Xunli, who was a few years younger!

Li Zhiyu wiped his eyes again as if he didn't believe it, and although the two were close at hand, he still stood up and looked at his face carefully. looked at the young man with a gentle smile in front of him, and his heart was already sure. It's just that this Li Xunli can talk and laugh so gently. Although I didn't say a few words to Li Xunli, I talked with Li Xunli for a while, and I also knew a little about him, and he should be an introverted and shy person listening to his tone and words, and he would never smile and talk to a person he didn't know, so why did he do this. Li Zhiyu was silent in thought, his mind was disorganized.

"What, little brother thinks what I said is wrong?" Li Xunli smiled again. Li Zhiyu said in a deep voice.

Since Li Zhiyu ignored it, Li Xunli should have stopped talking with interest, but he still didn't realize it, and said: "Do you know what it feels like to see in a day? It's so good! This world is full of different forms, flowers and plants are red, white clouds and red suns, black soil and yellow rice, it is really interesting. ”

Li Xunli paused for a moment, and when he saw that the young man still didn't speak, he just thought that Li Zhiyu regarded him as a madman talking nonsense, and his little face turned red. Thinking about the tone of Fang Cai's words, there were indeed many inappropriateness, and after a while, he suppressed the joy in his heart and said with a trembling voice: "In the future, I will no longer have nothing in my eyes, and I will no longer have to grope in the dark alone. Li Xunli smiled maniacally, his eyes were clear and bright. Although the night was dark, Li Zhiyu could also see the glint in his eyes.

Li Zhiyu saw Li Xunli in such a posture, and regardless of whether the words were appropriate or not, at least this kind of words were not shocking in the eyes of the laity, but also a madman, and the two sides were happy. The boy was about to ask what was going on, but the words were already brewing, and when he was about to speak, he was shocked to find that he still couldn't make the slightest sound.

The young man looked stunned, he looked at the young man in front of him who had calmed down a lot, stretched out his hand and pointed to his mouth, and then pointed to his own mouth. Li Xunli didn't know what he meant, he looked at the night sky without the slightest light with a little greed, and his eyes were intoxicated.

Li Zhiyu screamed as if he didn't believe it, and even stretched out his finger and picked his throat, but it was still the same. After a long time, the young man carefully pondered the words of the old Taoist priest in white, and then he remained silent, as if he was discouraged to accept his fate calmly. Looking at Li Xunli with a gentle smile in the faint light, seeing that he was similar to what he had seen before, Li Zhiyu felt a little comforted in his heart. But when he thought about it, he didn't know what kind of means the Taoist priest had used to come here, and it seemed that he had crossed the boundary to go back to the past, and the young man immediately felt bitter in his heart. When I thought of the girl who said that she would never bully her again, she felt two more points of sweetness. Thinking of her uncertain life and death, and not knowing her safety, my heart turned to worry.

"Hmm, the little brother's mind is fluctuating, and the person he is thinking about is in a critical moment at the moment, how can this be good. If the little brother thinks that Xunli has its usefulness, you may wish to inform Xunli, and do your best to help with it. Li Xunli spoke softly, but at this moment, he did not have the crazy appearance he had before.

Li Zhiyu listened to Li Xunli's words, and was surprised in his heart, how could he know what he thought and thought Li Xunli, but when he thought about it, he remembered that the three of them were imprisoned by Na Huijue, and when Li Xunli could see through people's hearts, he was relieved.

"Huijue, Huijue? Could it be that there is another monk in the Luoren Temple? I don't know. However, in this year, the war between my Chu State and Wu Yue was not over, and most of the villagers wanted to escape the suffering of the war, and there were many monks. What's more, our Yanhai County is the border of Nanguan in Longhai County, although there are no famous mountains and rivers, but it is the gateway of Longhai, and it is really a place for soldiers to fight. It is not uncommon for many villagers from near and far to become monks. Li Xunli opened his mouth again, and seeing that Li Zhiyu was still silent, Li Xunli showed a slight puzzlement on his face.

"The little brother must be a newcomer here, and he doesn't know much about the customs of this Luohu Village, and he has doubts about the bottom of the heart, which led to this situation. If the little brother doesn't dislike it, he might as well go home with me, drink water and eat first to relieve his fatigue. When the energy is restored, the body is full of energy, but it is in words. After Li Xunli finished speaking, he looked at the young man with a smile. He seemed to be afraid that the young man was a foreigner, and he couldn't understand his own words until he was so far in exile. He tugged at the boy's sleeve, pointed ahead, and turned away. Li Zhiyu whispered for a moment, and also walked behind Li Xunli.

The two of them walked slowly one after the other, although the road in the field was slippery and the soles of their feet were covered with a lot of mud, but it was also a unique taste to walk and enjoy in the lonely fields at night. It's just that Li Zhiyu was worried about Zhao Qingrou's safety, so he was absent-minded all the way and didn't care much about the surrounding things and scenery.

After walking for a while, the two turned into an alley. The lanes are lined with houses, but most of them are not lit, and most of them are silent. Occasionally, I heard sparse words, but they were all words of beating, scolding, pushing, and shoving, old men begging for mercy and crying, and women and children crying. Li Zhiyu didn't know what was going on, and he couldn't speak, so he couldn't ask Li Xunli what the reason was, and he felt a little aggrieved in his heart.

"Hmm, little brother wants to know why?" Li Xunli smiled, and looked at the young man's expression that turned from doubt to excitement.

The young man's eyes were bright and bright, and after looking at it for a moment, there was a little more pitiful.

Li Xunli smiled slightly, and was about to explain, when he suddenly remembered something else in his heart, and he asked with a little doubt, "Why doesn't the little brother ask how to read people's hearts?" The young man did not move when he heard this, but the corners of his mouth quietly hooked up a trace of arc. Li Xunli was puzzled.

His strange supernatural ability to see through the thoughts and words of others does not even know his parents, except for Wen Zhiliang, who purifies his eyes. Why did this young man look relieved? Li Zhiyu couldn't speak, he was silent.

Li Xunli saw that Li Zhiyu didn't answer, and he didn't force it, he sighed and said: "Yanhai County was originally the place of the Zhongtun Army in Longhai County. Although there is no dangerous terrain, it is the gateway of our Chu State, and it is naturally a place where the military formations of the two countries are united. Whenever Da Chu and Wu Yue are at odds, my Yanhai County bears the brunt. What the little brother saw and heard in the city was just like what the little brother saw and heard at this moment, bandits were rampant, the people were afraid of death, and the people were not happy. The ordinary people in the market have neither rice to nourish their bodies, nor coarse grass to warm their bodies. Coupled with military disasters and natural disasters, it is necessary to take three precautions in this year of war and chaos. Little brother, do you know which two of these three defenses are?"

Li Zhiyu was silent, Li Xunli looked at the sporadic fireworks lit in the distance, and his eyes were gloomy and sad. He paused, then added.

"These three defenses are one defense officer, two defense defenses, and three defense defenses against the enemy. Looking at the little brother's clothing style, it is very different from me, so I don't know why I need a defense officer. In the territory of this Chu State, there are countless counties, counties and prefectures, or there are famous mountains and rivers towering in the sky, or there are beautiful women, fine wines, and rich Jiangnan. The states and counties where they are located are poor or rich, but in the eyes of the priests, they are all happy places. And we have one of them in Yanhai County. He paused slightly, his words full of loss and gloom, and he spoke again: "My Yanhai County was originally a place of wealth, and at that time, there were fertile fields everywhere, and there were a lot of fish and rice. Every summer and autumn two seasons of fish return, through the Yuelong stream of Meiping County, jump down the river, can be seen millions of swimming fish leaping over the stream, the people of the time call it the fish leaping dragon gate, full of rivers and seas. Li Xunli cleared his throat, looked at Li Zhiyu's eyes staring at him motionless, and said again.

At that time, the fish went down one by one, every time the fish spawned, the fish went upstream, crossed the Meiping, passed through the big river to this Yanhai County, the fishermen could catch a hundred catties of fresh fish every day, at that time, every household could eat the fish, drink the wine, but it was very good. Li Xunli paused slightly after speaking.

"As for the place where Dachu dries salt in Yanhai County, but the salt field is under the jurisdiction of the prefectures and counties of Dachu, but the benefit of fish and salt can also be slightly wet with rain and dew in Luohu Village. He paused at this point, cleared his throat, and added: "Although the government strictly prohibits the sale and smuggling of illicit salt, as the saying goes: people die for money, and birds die for food." There are also many people in Luohu Village who dig post roads and sell official salt privately, making millions of profits every year. It's just that because this salt is under the jurisdiction of the government, many people have been arrested and imprisoned. When Li Xunli said this, his face was slightly embarrassed, showing that he was also a little guilty. Li Zhiyu nodded when he heard this, showing that he was listening.

"In addition to the benefits of fish and salt, there is also the flat land of the sea and the official road is extremely wide, and it is convenient for Dachu to use troops to deploy troops and send troops to defend against the enemy. When the two countries used their armies, the sea was in an extremely important place between the two countries, which led to the first defense officer, the second defense against theft, and the third defense against the enemy. Li Xunli sighed softly after speaking, but he didn't say anything, just walked forward, and Li Zhiyu followed quietly.

After walking for a while, the two of them had already left the alley and walked to a relatively wide territory.

Li Zhiyu looked ahead, only to see that there were a large number of houses here, except for a few slightly larger mansions, most of which were low-rise bungalows, surrounded by weeds, and it was obvious that there was no one. Li Zhiyu took a look at the surrounding scene, compared what he had seen before, and walked into the left-hand house, Li Xunli saw this, and did not stop it, but just sighed softly.

Li Zhiyu walked slowly, knocked on the door, and the room was silent, but there was no response. Li Zhiyu's footsteps stopped slightly, neither pushing the door in, nor lowering the steps, but quietly looking at Li Xunli.

Seeing this, Li Xunli smiled helplessly, pushed open the door, shook off a lot of dust, fell into his mouth and nose, and the two coughed slightly. Li Zhiyu's sleeve robe was lightly flicked, covering his mouth and nose, and he looked into the house by the faint light. Seeing this, Li Xunli hurriedly took out a fire fold from his arms, and the two of them looked at the door for a while, and waited for the dust to dissipate, and then they entered together. Li Xunli entered first, his figure wandering, and after a while, the candlelight was warm, and the room was sprinkled with patches of orange.

"It's a good thing that this gang of robbers didn't scrape it all, otherwise they wouldn't even be able to find this candle today. The young man spoke in a voice, and his words were full of sadness and sadness.

There is a candlelight ethereal, and most of the scene in the house is naturally reflected in the eye. Li Zhiyu only saw that the tables and chairs around him were incomplete, and there were half calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall, which was obviously pulled by someone. There were occasional blood stains around the walls of the house, and even the ground had intermittent finger marks, apparently someone was crawling on the ground and scratching like this. Li Zhiyu looked around, although he didn't say that the walls were ruined and the roof tiles were broken, but the surrounding situation was already very shocking.
