On the water of the Qinghe River, a magic boat rides the wind and waves and goes downstream.

This ship is assigned by the old man Zhang, naturally much better than the goods rented at will at the foot of the mountain, although the overall is still simple, but unlike the simple canopy of the previous boat, this ship is equipped with a carved beam and painted cabin, the design is exquisite, the interior decoration is also comfortable and tidy a lot, and the stable performance is extremely superior, such as walking on the ground.

A young man sat sideways by the string of the boat, looking intently at the scenery on both sides of the strait.

Because of the maintenance of the formation, the strong wind blowing was filtered into a gentle breeze, and the waves that rolled up from time to time were also blocked, splashing not half of the clothes.

Lin Pinghe changed into the coquettish clothes of the past, like a traveling son, but his thoughts are thousands.

On the mountain, before leaving Zhang Fuxiang's small courtyard, he also got a dossier, which recorded in detail all the causes and consequences of the incident and the itinerary.

In order to hide people's eyes, this time they kept a low profile, and the group set off overnight, using various modes of travel, to go to the city near the Demon Domain separately.

The cabin is not big, two or three meters away, Xu Chujie, who is dressed in a blue shirt, meditates cross-legged with her eyes closed, her face is delicate, and she looks a little holy in the moonlight, but it is completely different from the cowardly girl in Xu's mansion at the beginning.

Lin Pinghe felt a little bored, and when he came out with Guo Han, it was much more interesting, playing the piano, drinking tea, and joking, which was very cheerful.

Lin Pinghe simply recalled the details of the task file carefully, and couldn't help but think of Zhang Fuxiang's handling method, glanced at the woman not far away, and suddenly had a big head, what is this called?

Lin Pinghe was a little worried that Xu Chujie would do something and mix himself up in Tianfeng City, but what he was most worried about was his cheap father, so he sighed helplessly, turned his head and asked: "Miss Xu Jialiu! You know how to deal with this matter, what do you want to do? If there is anything to say, let's make it clear first, don't fight by yourself when the time comes!"

Xu Chujie opened her eyes and said faintly: "Do you still know how to talk to me?"

Lin Pinghe: ........

Seeing that Lin Pinghe didn't answer, Xu Chujie recovered her indifference and said lightly: "Didn't Hall Master Zhang Fuxiang tell you?

Lin Pinghe still couldn't help asking: "The Xu family is indeed not good to you, and even mean to you, but you also grew up there, now go back, can you do it?"

Xu Chujie looked directly at Lin Pinghe and said coldly: "It's just mean? If you kill your mother, you're just mean, then what is hatred!?"

Lin Pinghe stammered for a while, "Kill...... Murderous mother?"

"My mother was a famous singer, and the head of the Xu family was so bold that he was so fascinated that he actually kidnapped my mother on the way to Mocheng. He was afraid of the forces behind his mother and worried about the East Window incident, so he kept him under house arrest in the Xu Mansion Water Prison. Later, when I was born, their family never looked at our mother and daughter squarely, and oppression was commonplace. Finally...... He once beat my mother to death after getting drunk and accidentally beat her to death!!"

Xu Chujie said at the end, her voice was already a little sharp.

Lin Pinghe didn't think that Xu Chujie was deceiving herself, who would use her biological mother to deceive people? He was stunned, turned his head to look at the beautiful mountains and rivers outside, and said softly: "That's right, you should hate, and you should die." ”

Xu Chujie took a few deep breaths and regained her composure, "Don't worry, my status in the academy is higher than yours, and the people of the Sword Sect want us to die, since we go together, we are grasshoppers on the boat, and when it is time to make a move, I will be more decisive than you!"

Since that trip to the Yellow Smoke Cave, the intimate relationship between the young man in front of him and that Guo Han has made Xu Chujie puzzled, and now the academy has sent him to accompany him on a mission, as long as he is not a fool, he should guess that there are some secrets in the matter of being demoted to a gray robe.

Xu Chujie proposed: "It's not difficult to destroy the Xu family, but the difficult thing is that you can't let go of the person who is behind the ghost, so tonight I will first communicate with the city lord of Tianfeng City secretly, so that the inside and the outside can be together." Tomorrow morning, we will pretend to do other tasks and stay at Xu's house for one night, trying to find clues as soon as possible. ”

Xu Chujie pulled her hair and said with a slight smile: "As for the Xu family, I'll take care of it, you just need to cooperate." ”

Lin Pinghe nodded slightly expressionlessly, but somehow there was a chill in his heart.

After sailing on the water for two hours, the two went ashore, changed horses and galloped, taking advantage of the dark night and high wind, to come to Tianfeng City.

The two of them put their horses back into the mountains, climbed over the wall and entered the city, avoiding the avenue, and drove along the civilian path to the city lord's mansion.

In the center of the city, a vermilion and majestic mansion dominates Tianfeng City.

There are only a few night lights on in the Tianfeng Mansion, and with some martial artists patrolling, it looks solemn, but in Lin Pinghe's eyes, it is easy to sneak in.

"Xu Chujie, is this Heavenly Phoenix City Lord trustworthy? I'm afraid ......"

"You don't know this, the Tianfeng City Lord can serve as the lord of a city by virtue of the Qi cultivation period, not by cultivation, but by his uncle, Tianfeng University Scholar! ”

........

A patrol guard only felt a sudden gust of wind blowing, with a faint fragrance, a little strange looked around, but did not see anything unusual, and asked his companion with some doubts, "Hey, Liuzi, have you smelled any fragrance?"

The patrol warrior known as the "Six Sons" was also stunned, sniffed the air around him, and asked rhetorically, "It's tasteless, what kind of fragrance?"

The questioner frowned, thought carefully, and said slowly: "Strange ......"

Liuzi seemed to think of something, patted him on the shoulder, and sneered: "Haven't you kid been lying on Sister Yao'er for a long time, and your nose is confused, right? Wake up, patrol!"

"Why are you .......so confused," the scolding voice gradually became smaller.

Lin Pinghe spread his consciousness slightly, and was about to directly find the location of Tianfeng Wen, but he didn't find it, but he heard the conversation between the two guards who passed by just now, and he smelled it unconsciously, and found that it was really fragrant, glanced at Xu Chujie who was lurking in front of him, touched his nose, concentrated his attention, and continued to search.

Xu Chujie's voice came softly: "Tianfengwen should be in the secret room, these people are very important to their lives." Come with me, go to his study first. ”

Lin Pinghe followed the woman in front of him without saying a word, and after a while, taking advantage of the blind spot of the patrol's vision, he quietly entered the city lord's study.

The study is elegantly furnished, with a sandalwood burner curling smoke.

Lin Pinghe was extremely familiar with the art of the mechanism, and as soon as he swept his senses, he found that there was something wrong with an inconspicuous book in the bookcase, and secretly complained: The older the routine, the more popular it is.

The boy approached the bookcase and pulled the book out, and suddenly a reaction force came.

Lin Pinghe pulled the book out to the end without difficulty, only to hear the sound of "rubbing ~", and then, a slight sound of stone movement came, and on an inconspicuous ground in the study, a stone slab slowly sank, making way for a black hole.

Lin Pinghe's divine sense swept away, and said to Xu Chujie: "Let's go in." ”

Xu Chujie was very surprised by the young man's troubled methods, but she didn't say much and followed closely.

It is a tunnel staircase that slopes down 45 degrees, and it is completely dark inside, but the light of the moon from the outside of the house makes the entrance slightly colorful.

Lin Pinghe walked to the corner of the stairs, and suddenly, a sharp sword stabbed from the bottom up, and the angle was tricky.

Lin Pinghe seemed to have eyes in the dark, with a swing of his right hand, he lightly clamped the sword body with two fingers, no matter how hard the other end of the long sword was, it was difficult to shake it.

The young man in the dark smiled lightly, "Tianfeng City Lord, this is the second time we have met, and this meeting gift is also chic." ”

After that, his left hand carved the word "fire" out of thin air, and with a flick of his fingertips, with a "whew", the palace lamp that had just been extinguished ignited again.

The whole space suddenly lit up.

The people in the secret room finally saw the infiltrator.

"You are Lin Pinghe from Linjia Village?!" A surprised man's voice came, it was the person with the sword - Tianfeng Wen.

Lin Pinghe had seen this Tianfeng Wen from afar, but the distance was too far and not real enough.

Now that it is so close, I find that although this city lord with a beardless face and a white face is a little blessed when he is close to middle age, he can still see the grace and grace of his youth.

"It's down. After that, he let go of the sword, Lin Pinghe arched his hand and said, "I came uninvited late at night and bothered the city lord, please forgive me." ”

Tianfeng Wen withdrew his sword, and then saw that there was a beautiful woman behind him, who was born for a while, but did not recognize it, and defaulted to Lin Pinghe's maids.

This is not surprising, when Lin Pinghe entered the academy with purple and other talents, Tianfengwen who was present was deeply impressed by this young man who ignited purple light three times, but he didn't care too much about Xu Chujie, who was ordinary red and other talents, plus this woman's personality, demeanor, and clothing changed greatly, and it was natural to misunderstand it for a while.

In the secret room, all kinds of decorations are far more luxurious than the study outside, the seats are wrapped with the fur cushions of unknown spirit animals, but they are soft and comfortable to look at; There are even some pond fish, blooming flowers and plants, which are estimated to be catalyzed by spirit stones.

It's really going to be enjoyable.

The most important thing is that although this is an underground space, what kind of formation should be installed, and the fresh air circulation is very comfortable.

Tianfeng heard that Xu Chujie had seen the Nanhua secret order that Xu Chujie was carrying, and he was really relieved at this moment, and said with a wry smile: "Can't you two go to the main gate in advance to say hello? Why bother to break into my secret room over the wall late at night.......

Xu Chujie said coldly: "The matter is urgent, so I can only do it so cheaply." ”

After some explanation, Tianfeng also knew the reason for the matter, and frowned worriedly: "I didn't expect the matter to be so serious, the academy just reminded me to take more precautions against the family forces in the city." ”

Lin Pinghe smiled, "Tianfeng City Lord, there are many people in your mansion, and it is easy to fall short if the wind blows, and Nanhua Mountain is also troubled if it is not informed in detail in order to be able to clear the infiltrated tumor in one fell swoop." ”

"I know this, but judging from the information in this file, the children of the Xu family who went out decades ago and are returning now are afraid that they are likely to reach the cultivation of the late stage of Qi training, and we are not opponents!" Speaking of the Xu family, Tian Fengwen still couldn't help but glance at the quiet beautiful girl next to her, and it was only through the introduction that she learned that this was the only sixth lady among the current children of the Xu family who was selected into Nanhua Academy. What's more, looking at its momentum, I'm afraid it's into Qi training!

Tianfeng muttered a little in his heart, in addition to the embarrassment of this woman's family identity, he felt more helpless that his cultivation was about to be caught up by one young man after another.

However, since Nanhua Mountain sent her to destroy her own family, she naturally has Nanhua Mountain's intentions, and she just does it, in case she really encounters danger, there is a life talisman given by her uncle, and there is no cultivation in the later stage of foundation building, no one can stop herself who wants to escape!

Lin Ping and Dao affirmed: "If his cultivation is only in the late stage of Qi cultivation, the two of us will naturally be able to deal with it......"
