Chapter 245: The highest vigilance, guarding against strong enemies
The three of them talked for a while, Xiao Yao found that Lin Fei had never lifted the veil, although he had doubts, but seeing Zhan Pengfei seemed to be commonplace, he thought about it, and did not ask about it.
According to what Lin Fei said, the people of the evil sect have withdrawn from the dense forest, although they don't know what their plans are, but for the sake of safety, the three of them decided to shuttle between the mountains and forests until they approached the area of Qingyan City and took the official road instead.
After resting all night, Xiao Yao had a lot of thoughts, for the sake of a Tang Dynasty, he broke away from the sect, the master and apprentice broke up, the evil faction made a feud, and he was in deep danger.
With the power of the evil sect all over the four states, I believe that it will not be long before his identity will be found, and then Qingyan City will inevitably have a fierce battle.
Early morning.
The three of them left the cave and set off, Lin Fei was used to being alone, and after a few simple words, he disappeared in place, hiding in the dark to protect them.
This time, Xiao Yao and the others returned quite smoothly, and no abnormalities were found on the way, it seemed that the death of the evil sect and the eleven strong men hit them too hard, but they were much more restrained.
After a five-day journey, it took the three of them ten days to reach the area under the jurisdiction of Qingyan City.
On the official road, Xiao Yao breathed a sigh of relief, turned his head to look at Zhan Pengfei, and said with a wry smile: "Finally go home." ”
"Hey, it's all the blame for the old slave's self-righteousness, it seems that my arrogant temperament will have to be restrained in the future. ”
Zhan Pengfei said with emotion, since he broke through to the Xuanwu period of cultivation, his mood has changed, his eyes are empty, and he regards the strong people in the world like ants.
Eyebrows raised slightly, Xiao Yao said disapprenously: "Why do you want to converge? In my opinion, we should intensify our efforts against them, beat them until they are afraid, and fight until they give in." ”
The beard was curled, and Zhan Pengfei said in his heart, this kid is becoming more and more of a second-generation palace master's character that must be repaid, and the reason why Jiuyao Palace was able to become a transcendent existence at the beginning has a lot to do with the character of the palace masters of previous dynasties.
As he walked, Xiao Yao's footsteps stopped, as if he remembered something, paused, and said, "The death of the Five Elements Peak Lord, I always feel that it was not the work of the evil sect. ”
"The old slave also feels the same way, those guys dare to go to Wudang Mountain to provoke openly, how can they care about the life or death of a peak master, there is no need not to admit it. Zhan Pengfei explained.
"Uncle Zhan, do you remember the secret letter sent by the cold night?"
"Does the master suspect that Wu En is playing tricks?"
Zhan Pengfei suddenly realized and guessed what Xiao Yao meant.
"Being able to kill a peak master with the strength of the Great Martial Period in a short period of time, it is obvious that the murderer has reached the cultivation of the Xuanwu Period, when we were suppressing the bandits in Luoyanling, Wu En had already exposed the strength of the Xuanwu Period, so it is extremely likely that he is the murderer. Xiao Yao said in a deep voice.
"Indeed, it seems that Ng is about to start brewing a new conspiracy again. Zhan Pengfei said.
Taking a deep breath, Xiao Yao said calmly: "No matter what the conspiracy is, sooner or later it will surface, and when Young Master Feng comes out, that is, when his true form is revealed." ”
......
Back home, Xiao Yao hurriedly brought Ling Du and ordered him to ask the best doctor to treat Zhan Pengfei's injuries, and the flying pigeon sent a message to Leng Ye to return to Qingyan City quickly, after thinking about it, he felt that he still had no bottom in his heart, and transferred a hundred members from the Heidu Gang to be stationed in the mansion, increasing from ten groups of patrols to twenty groups, and taking turns to be on duty day and night.
Ling Du was so smart, he knew that something big had happened without asking carefully, put away his naughty character, didn't say a word, and hurriedly did what Xiao Yao told him.
After receiving the news, Zhou Shun also rushed to Xiao's mansion, and was shocked when he learned that Zhan Pengfei was injured.
Xiao Yao briefly told the matter, and the two discussed, Zhou Shun decided to send a large number of secret agents out of the city to investigate the movements of the evil sect, and the other four city defense towers strengthened the guard force, and once a suspicious person was found, he would immediately interrogate to ensure that nothing went wrong.
"The matter is so serious, you might as well transfer Uncle Kun and Uncle Lang back, right?" Zhou Shun reminded.
Frowning, Xiao Yao said lightly: "Absolutely not, who knows how much strength Wu En has hidden behind him, once Uncle Kun and them come back, the Heavenly Fire Domain will inevitably fall." ”
"Uncle Zhan is a penetrating injury, although there is no danger to his life, but it will take at least two months to recover and heal, and during this period, relying on Uncle Lin to deter the enemy is probably a bit too far-fetched. Zhou Shun said.
Nodding, Xiao Yao was noncommittal, Lin Fei was certainly powerful, but it was limited to secretly releasing arrow feathers, to put it bluntly, he was good at long-range attacks, but if the enemy came to attack during the day, Lin Fei would have nowhere to hide even if he had the means to reach the sky, after all, Xiao Mansion was not a mountain forest and did not have so many favorable conditions.
"Hey, it's really a wrong step, and every step is lost!" Xiao Yao said helplessly.
"Money can make ghosts grind, and there must be brave men under heavy money, you let Ling Du issue a recruitment order in the city, and Wan Jin hires idle martial arts powerhouses to work for him, I think it will have some effect." Zhou Shun proposed.
"Idle?" After a moment of silence, Xiao Yao's eyes lit up, and he continued: "This reminds me, Brother Zhou, please send another secret agent to collect news about idle and strong people in Dongzhou, these guys generally live in seclusion in the deep mountains and valleys, unless they are invited in person, it is difficult to take the initiative to take refuge." ”
"No problem, leave it to me. ”
Zhou Shun agreed, hesitated, and continued: "In the near future, you should show your head less, I always feel that Wu En will also send secret agents to keep an eye on our every move." ”
"I also took this into consideration, so the flying pigeon passed the book to let the cold night return quickly, in order to pull out the dark line. Xiao Yao smiled.
"Let's eat a trench and grow wise, I'll go first. ”
After speaking, Zhou Shun said goodbye and left.
Seeing the back of Zhou Shun leaving, Xiao Yao was just about to leave the hall, when he suddenly found Ling Fei'er standing outside the door.
Footsteps Lotus moved in, Ling Fei'er's pretty face showed a worried look, and said, "I have let the servants make arrangements, from today onwards, you and your family will move into the underground palace first." ”
Walking closer, he took Ling Fei'er's hands and smiled indifferently, Xiao Yao said: "It's still thoughtful, but hiding in my own home, I always feel very awkward." ”
"This time and that time, the courage of the moment, that is the practice of the horseman, only by not being surprised, examining the degree, is the wise. Ling Fei'er smiled.
Ling Fei'er's voice was like a clear spring, instantly washing away the exhaustion and worries all over her body, Xiao Yao's heart was full of joy, and her spirit was lifted, anyone can fall, only she can't fall, so many people support herself, there is no reason, no excuse, and she is depressed.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yao laughed, his body gradually surged with a stream of qi and blood, paused, and gently lay on Ling Fei'er's ear and muttered a few words, only to see Ling Fei'er's cheeks crimson, and gently pinched Xiao Yao's waist.
