Zhang Ye explained the situation to Elder Xia, Elder Xia pondered for a long time, looked at Zhang Ye and said, "I won't interfere in the infighting in Biluo Palace, just do what you want to do, I don't know anything." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info" As he spoke, Elder Xia's fingers flashed, and he wrote a few words on the table, which was Cao Ze's residence.

Zhang Ye saluted Elder Xia, left the small courtyard, returned to the inn, and then explained to Xun Qiu what Elder Xia meant, Xun Qiu frowned, and also bowed his head and muttered for a while, and finally made a decision, saying, "Since this is the case...... Then act as soon as possible. ”

Xun Qiu said: "You go and ask for Fang Qianling from Cao Ze, I will go to Meng Wenhou and ask him to prepare the ship, as soon as Fang Qianling arrives, we will set off immediately." ”

Zhang Ye hesitated for a moment and nodded, Xun Qiu had already gone out.

Cao Ze thought that he had something important to do, so he did not return to Biluo Palace, but kept living in a valley outside the city. Zhang Ye rushed to the outside of the city, approaching the city gate, but Zhang Ye suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his heart, and said: "This Cao Ze will definitely not believe us, we must be prepared in advance." ”

Both of them frowned and walked towards the tavern on the side of the street, but after a while, they came out again, but Zhang Ye was the only one.

Zhang Ye hurried for half a day, arrived at the valley where Cao Ze was located, the valley was quiet and quiet, the plants were luxuriant, and it didn't seem to be inhabited, Zhang Ye looked for a long time in the valley and didn't see any traces, and he couldn't help but be very suspicious in his heart.

Thinking that Elder Xia would definitely not deceive himself, Zhang Ye had a change of thought in his heart, and stood in the middle of the valley and shouted loudly: "Senior Zhang Ye, under the orders of Elder Xia of the Jiyun Sect, come to meet the seniors. ”

Sure enough, as soon as Zhang Ye's words fell, he saw a flash of inspiration not far away, and a small mansion was revealed. Zhang Ye was shocked in his heart, he had just looked at that place carefully, but he didn't find the slightest clue.

Zhang Ye walked towards the house, lightly buttoned the door knocker, and the door opened by itself. Zhang Ye walked inward and saw a middle-aged man sitting in the courtyard, wearing a richly decorated white robe, smiling, and his eyes were cold but undiminished.

This person was the person Zhang Ye had seen in Xia Rou's small courtyard, and as soon as Fang met that gaze, Zhang Ye's heart trembled. Zhang Ye calmed down and walked towards the courtyard.

Cao Ze beckoned Zhang Ye to sit down at the table in the courtyard, poured a full cup of tea, and then said, "In the mountains and wilderness, there is no good tea." ”

Zhang Ye doesn't know how to taste tea, but he even says "good tea" in his mouth. The two exchanged politeness for a while before turning to the topic.

Cao Ze asked, "Has Elder Xia thought about it?"

Zhang Ye nodded, not daring to say anything.

Cao Ze asked, "What did he say?"

Zhang Ye said: "He said he could help you." ”

Cao Ze nodded slightly, his eyes showing joy. He rolled his gaze and asked, "What else did he say?"

Zhang Ye said: "He asked me to bring back Fang Qianling." ”

Cao Ze was stunned for a moment, his eyes were cold, and he said, "He really said that?"

"Yes. Zhang Ye said calmly.

Cao Ze was silent for a moment and looked at Zhang Ye, "Do you know what Fang Qianling is?"

Zhang Ye nodded, "I know." ”

Cao Zemo rubbed the teacup in his hand, "What is the use of Elder Xia asking for Fang Qianling?"

Zhang Ye shook his head, "I don't know about this." ”

Cao Ze suddenly chuckled and looked at Zhang Ye coldly, "Isn't it that Elder Xia has a mind about that ethereal Fang Qiandao?"

Zhang Ye was silent for a moment and said, "Since there is a Fang Qian's order, presumably there is no illusory thing on that Fang Qiandao. ”

"You know a lot about the other party's order?"

"I've heard a little. Zhang Ye had already sensed Cao Ze's hostility.

Cao Ze looked at Zhang Ye, his eyes flashed, obviously thinking about this, Zhang Ye took the teapot on the table and poured himself a full cup, his heart was worried, but there was no panic on his face.

In the past few days of life and death, Zhang Ye has indeed grown a lot, and it is not too difficult for his face to change at this time.

Cao Ze said again: "What else did he say?"

Zhang Ye looked up at Cao Ze, and saw that the smile on his face was gone, his brows frowned slightly, and there seemed to be doubts in his eyes. Zhang Ye said: "No." ”

Cao Ze was stunned again and asked, "He only needs Fang Qianling?"

Zhang Ye nodded.

Cao Zeruo looked at Zhang Ye meaningfully and asked, "Is it really Elder Xia who asked you to come?"

"Naturally. Zhang Ye looked at it in surprise, "Otherwise, how could I find here!"

Cao Ze nodded slightly, his eyes even more suspicious.

Zhang Ye asked rhetorically, "You doubt me?"

Cao Ze was silent, but the meaning couldn't be more obvious.

Zhang Ye was stunned, smiled again, and said, "Then do you give it or not? If you don't give it to me, I'll go back." ”

Cao Ze was stunned for a moment, but he also laughed twice, and said, "How can I doubt you, that Fang Qiandao is too illusory after all, since Elder Xia is interested, take it." ”

Zhang Ye also smiled, and his heart was settled.

Cao Ze said: "But Fang Qianling didn't bring it with me, the virtuous nephew may have to wait a few days, and I will have someone send it." ”

Zhang Ye was also stunned, looking at Cao Ze, seeing that he didn't seem to be lying, his heart suddenly panicked, how can he wait? Zhang Ye frowned, his face was entangled for a while, and asked, "How many days will you wait?"

Cao Ze looked at the sky and said, "This is a month's journey from Biluo Palace, I will send a message back at this moment, and let someone send it as soon as possible, at least half a month." ”

Zhang Ye's face sank, how can this be good?

Cao Ze said: "If the virtuous nephew is delayed in my courtyard for a few days, I will also entertain him." ”

Zhang Ye hadn't paid attention to it yet, but he also knew that he couldn't stay here, and said: "Since that's the case, the junior will go back first, and when Fang Qian's order is delivered, the junior will come to disturb again." ”

Cao Ze didn't stay long, Zhang Ye left the house, walked a short distance, and when he turned back, there was no trace of the house.

Zhang Ye walked out of the valley, anxious in his heart, and hurried towards the city.

Zhang Ye and Xun Qiu originally planned to deceive Fang Qianling, and then immediately went to sea by boat, if Cao Ze checked with Elder Xia, Elder Xia would be able to excuse himself, saying that everything was Zhang Ye's own opinion, and Zhang Ye was already at sea at this time, even if Cao Ze didn't believe it, there was nothing to do. But now it will take half a month to get Fang Qian's order, if Cao Ze comes to Elder Xia to check during this period, how can he shirk it? If he shirks, how can Zhang Ye live, let alone go to sea.

What's even more worrying is that if Cao Ze went to Decheng to ask Elder Xia one step earlier at this moment, Elder Xia didn't know that Zhang Ye didn't get Fang Qian's order, and deduced that this matter had nothing to do with him, then Zhang Ye would be even more dead.

Therefore, Zhang Ye returned to the city in a while, so he looked straight at Xia Rou's small courtyard and rushed to the courtyard, Zhang Ye's back was already cold sweat, he walked straight to the house, and when he saw Elder Xia, his heart suddenly settled down.

Zhang Ye took a few breaths and said, "I didn't get Fang Qian's order. ”

Cao Ze said that Fang Qianling was not on him, and it would be delivered after half a month. ”

Elder Xia turned his head to look at Zhang Ye, frowned, and after a while, he sighed and said, "I know." ”

Zhang Ye didn't know what to say for a while, Elder Xia had always been good to him, but he didn't have any direct relationship with him, after all, there was a certain distance. His sigh couldn't help but make Zhang Ye's heart heavy.

Zhang Ye didn't say anything after all, just bowed down, walked out of the mansion, and walked towards the inn.

Xun Qiu didn't know when he returned to the inn, and when he saw Zhang Ye, his face was happy, and then he looked at Zhang Ye's expression, he was slightly stunned, and his face sank.

Zhang Ye said: "I didn't get Fang Qian's order, Cao Ze said that Fang Qian's order is in Biluo Palace, and it will be delivered in at least half a month." ”

Xun Qiu's face changed greatly.

Zhang Ye said again: "I have already told Elder Xia about this, don't worry. ”

"Elder Xia......" Xun Qiu was stunned again, and he already understood in his heart. It was no longer possible for Elder Xia to stay out of the matter.

Xun Qiu said: "I have to go and talk to Meng Wenhou again, lest he show his feet." ”

Zhang Ye remembered that Hua Xiaoyan was still in the tavern, so he also turned around and walked out of the inn and walked towards the tavern. It was twilight, and there were far fewer pedestrians on the streets, but there were many more people in the taverns.

Zhang Ye walked into the tavern, Hua Xiaoyan was still sitting at the table in the morning, there were three wine glasses on the table, and there were two people opposite her.

Zhang Ye turned his gaze and was suddenly shocked, these two people were wearing blue robes, their eyebrows were handsome, but they were murderous, and they were actually from Qingyang Palace.
