Reflecting the candlelight, it can be vaguely seen that the person who pushed the door in was Dong Guoxiu!

"Brother Dongguo, why are you here!" Zhou Yi looked surprised, put the sword in his hand back into the sheath, and hung it on the wall not far from the door.

Dong Guo Xiu didn't have time to answer, so he hurriedly made a small gesture, looked back behind him, and then closed the door with his backhand, pulling Zhou Yi inside to speak.

The two sat down at the coffee table, Dong Guoxiu untied the two wine bags from his waist, checked them with both hands, and said with a smile: "This is the best wine in the General's Mansion, and Hou Jing only takes it out during the New Year Festival and when he worships his father, if you come from afar, I will pick up the wind for General Hou!"

Zhou Yi couldn't help laughing, and when he thought of being in the Hou Mansion, he was busy and stopped laughing, poured two bowls with a big bowl, and the two of them drank it all!

At this moment, he saw that Dong Guoxiu was safe and sound, and a stone hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground. However, Zhou Yi was still deeply surprised to meet him here, so he asked: "You and I parted from the inn that day, it can be described as life and death, I didn't expect me to meet my brother here!

Dong Guo Xiu's expression was wandering, and his eyes seemed to be staring at the sword that Zhou Yi hung on the wall. As soon as he heard Zhou Yi ask him like this, his eyes shook slightly, he poured two more bowls of wine, raised the big bowl and hung it between his nose and lips, sniffed it deeply, and said with an intoxicated look: "It's hard to say! Speaking of which, I didn't arrive a few days earlier than you, I just arrived at the Hou Mansion three days ago." ”

The two raised bowls to drink together, and in the blink of an eye, a bag of wine was drunk by the two of them in three bowls, and there was no drip left.

Zhou Yi was curious, but it was rare for the two of his brothers to get together, "How can you talk freely if you don't have a lot of wine!"

So he brought a wine jar from the outside and said with a smile: "Big brother is a saint in poetry and wine, don't bend today." ”

Dong Guo Xiu was stunned for a moment, and smiled reluctantly, "Let's be regarded as a reunion after a long absence, I have a lot to say to you, so I only brought a bag of wine, greedy for a cup and mistaken things, this wine, I think it should end here! I'm just a martial artist, how can I have a poetry and wine Yaxing?"

"Yuan Fu told me, saying that when you were in the Six Hanging Peak, no one could compare with you in poetry, wine, sword and tea, so Wu Ye appreciated your talent, so he married his only female disciple to you, oh, by the way, since you are fortunate to mention your sister-in-law, the younger brother should be given three cups, then you will be led by the eldest brother!"

As he spoke, he poured two large bowls, one of which he did first as a respect, and then asked Dongguo Xiu to order three bowls on behalf of his wife!

When Zhou Yi wanted to respect him again, he seemed to be a little overwhelmed, his eyes narrowed into a line tiredly, his body unconsciously went back, and he let out a long breath. His eyes were still unconsciously looking at the Xuanyuan Sword, and his eyebrows were tightly locked.

Zhou Yi felt strange, Dongguo Xiu was eight years older than him, just in his early thirties, and he was bold by nature, he did not refuse to come to fine wine, and the amount of alcohol was the best among the younger generation. But at the moment, the two of them can't drink five bowls, and it is really unbelievable that he is so tired.

"Presumably, what has the eldest brother been tracking down these days, so he is tired?" Zhou Yi leaned forward slightly and asked in a low voice.

When Dong Guoxiu heard this, he hurriedly rubbed his eyes, gathered his senses, and said with a smile: "Maybe, I moved from Kanto to the Central Plains, passed through Taiji Mountain and came to the capital." I inquired all the way and got some unknown news, because the stakes were important, and I didn't dare to slack off, so I stepped into the capital with my front foot, and found this Hou Mansion with my back foot. I haven't seen Hou Jing's face until now, no, just two days after the correction, I heard that there was a young man in the mansion who wanted to see the general. I thought that you and Brother Yuan Fu had settled the matter at hand in Kanto, and eighty percent would come to the capital, so I guessed that it was you. However, these days are indeed a little tired, otherwise, our brothers repeat today, how can we not get drunk and rest!"

"Oh," Zhou Yi listened to him and nodded slightly, "Big brother went to Taiji Mountain?"

"That night, you went to chase Yuegu, you should have gone all the way north, why did you turn around and return to the Central Plains? What kind of place is Taiji Mountain, it is rumored that few people can get there, but what is the reason for my brother?"

Dong Guoxiu heard him ask, and his drunkenness eased slightly, and his expression was also stretched, "It's a long story, that day I braved the wind and snow to chase the old woman, I thought she was old, and her legs and feet must not be as agile as you and me, but I didn't expect that she was like a wild goose in the sky in the wind and snow, and I chased ten miles before I vaguely saw her footprints." And guess what?"

As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves and wiped the sweat on his forehead, pinched a small teacup and drank a cup of tea, and continued: "That set of footprints went around not far to the north, and I felt weird, so I followed the footprints all the way. However, after leaving the Kanto, it was still the solar term of late autumn in the Kannai, so the clues that had been pursued before were interrupted. However, I inquired in many ways and asked all the liquor stores along the way, and finally followed the man's trail to Tai Chi. ”

"Did my brother go up the mountain?"

"No, as you said, Taiji Mountain is a place of treacherous changes, I asked the local people, and they were silent about Taiji, for fear that if they leaked their mouths, they would encounter some misfortune. ”

Zhou Yi listened very expressively, and when he talked about the fear of the local people, he remembered an interesting story he had seen in a travelogue, "According to legend, Taiji Mountain connects the yin and yang of heaven and earth, and will swallow clouds and spit fog in the middle of the moon every month, and the mountains and rivers and plants there will become extremely strange, and the roads will be rugged and steep than usual. Whoever strays into it has no chance of survival. Later, someone was fortunate enough to enter and come back, talking about what he saw and heard on Taiji Mountain, saying that a mountain peak would suddenly emerge in the clouds, and the temple on the mountain was lined up, and the bell and Ding were ringing, just like a fairyland on earth. His companion was vain about the grandeur of the fairyland, and was slammed down. So since then, the people of that generation have respected him as an immortal mountain, because of false rumors, over time, no one dares to climb it without permission. But these are all legends, how can you solve the mystery without seeing them for yourself!"

Dong Guoxiu smiled: "What kind of travelogue is this, why haven't I heard of it?"

Zhou Yi pursed his lips and shook his head: "It's an old miscellaneous book in my master's study, I looked interesting, so I rolled my eyes twice, thinking that it was also the ignorance of the world, adding a little bit of gods, Buddhas and ghosts to some phenomena that they couldn't explain." ”

"In the era of war and chaos, who can calm down and think about whether what they see is true or false?"

The two looked at each other and smiled, Zhou Yi drank, and Dong Guoxiu treated him with tea.

"Oh, by the way, then how did you get to the capital?" Zhou Yi then asked.

"I've never believed in ghost places, so I spent a few days in that area. Unexpectedly, at the end of the month, a few people suddenly came down from the mountain, with extremely strange shapes, and went straight to the capital. That's it, I tracked all the way to this imperial city. Coincidentally, it was rumored in those days that the general was recruiting warriors to help him go north to fight the Turks. I think that someone came to the capital from Taiji Mountain at this juncture, which must be inextricably linked, so I also came to pay homage to Hou Jing as a Jianghu person. However, he has been very busy these days, and it is easy for outsiders to see him. ”

Zhou Yi couldn't help nodding, thinking that Dongguo Xiu was chasing him here, because someone was leading the way, and the person who pretended to be Yuegu who left from Kanto must have some kind of unknown secret with Taiji Mountain. If he wants to find out any flaws in it, it seems that he is going to thoroughly investigate this general's mansion.

Just as his mind was wandering, Dong Guo Xiu's words almost made his entire mind fall into a kind of chaotic quagmire, "I have something to tell you, yesterday I sneaked into Hou Jing's study and found correspondence between Hou Jing and some people in the rivers and lakes in a secret pavilion behind a wall. Obviously, those people are all people from the rivers and lakes who work for Hou Jing, and among them, there is one person I have to tell you, lest the white crane mountain form be alone and betrayed in the future!"

"Who?"

"Wuxiang Mountain, Yu Guangling!"
