Rebellious officials bow their heads

Even the head of the Qingshan faction fell vulnerable, and the challengers who were still eager to try were all extinguished, and now no one dared to play again.

Jing Fuling sat below, almost tilted with a smile, pointing out of breath, pointing to the martial arts platform, and said to the young man beside him: "Hahahahahahahahaha what's going on? It's the first time I know that Ye Liuzhou is here. So powerful hahahahahahaha!"

Jing Yuan turned his thoughtful gaze and landed on Zheng Xu, who was supported by his disciples. The other party wiped the ashes off his body, retreated behind a house, and disappeared.

Standing in the shadows behind the house was a tall man, his brows were stern, and the black wire glistening in his hand was retracted into the ring, he nodded politely to Zheng Xu, "Thank you."

Zheng Xu shook his mouth and couldn't speak, so he had to wipe the cold sweat off his brow.

Here Ye Liuzhou announced his victory after no one dared to take the stage to challenge him, and was ready for the third competition that will start tomorrow.

He walked down the steps step by step, and everyone looked at him in horror like a tiger or wolf, and they all backed away.

Ye Liuzhou really did not expect such a result. The opponents pretended to lose the competition one by one, which made him win inexplicably.

Ignoring everyone's reactions, he crossed the stands, returned Chuan Luan Sword to Jing Yuan, and when he followed them away, he looked in the direction of Wan Hong. At some point, Xu Yan who was standing beside him had disappeared.

"How did you do it, that's it," Jing Fuling gestured, "repelled Zheng Xu with one move?"

Ye Liuzhou spread his hands and said, "He fell by himself."

"How come?" Jing Fuling said, "Why did he deliberately lose the competition? Could it be that he drank too much?"

"Maybe I'm afraid that if I lose, your senior brother will kill him directly." Ye Liuzhou said, "I really want to know, apart from that unnamed sect last night, what kind of horrific things did the coir raincoats do before they can kill you?" Make them so afraid?"

Jing Fuling was overjoyed, and waved her hand carelessly, "Brothers don't kill people for no reason, they are all self-inflicted, but that's not important, it's fine if you win, we must celebrate tonight, what do you think, brother?"

Jing Yuan hung the Chuan Luan Sword on his waist, and nodded upon hearing the sound.

"We can't go to the dinner party at the Yuan Mansion, what should we do? Why don't we go to a tavern in the city?" Jing Fuling asked.

"One of you can't use martial arts, and the other has suffered such a serious injury, it's better not to go out." Ye Liuzhou smiled at them, "I know a good place to go."

In the back kitchen of the Yuan Mansion, there is a pot on the stove, the snow-white fish soup inside is simmering, the exquisite pastries are placed on the plate, the chicken rolls wrapped in sauce on the chopping board have not yet been cooked, the squirrel mandarin The fish was covered with steaming marinade, and a strong aroma of food mixed in the air.

A group of cooks walked out the door while holding baskets, talking, and there was only one boy dozing off in the stove.

Jing Yuan and Ye Liuzhou were sitting opposite each other on a high beam, perhaps because the other person's expression was too unfriendly, Ye Liuzhou coughed lightly, and said: "The cook cooks it right under his nose, it will never be Are you worried about someone poisoning you?"

Jing Yuan was silent for a moment, then looked away slightly, and said, "Last night..."

"Huh?" Ye Liuzhou looked at him.

Before Jing Yuan could finish speaking, there was a soft bang, and Jing Fuling flew up and sat up. Not only her hands, but also her head and shoulders were on the plate. There were five or six dishes in total, and she put all the dishes on the table. On the beam, two carved silver cups were taken out and filled with wine.

Ye Liuzhou took it, clinked glasses with her, drank it up contentedly, and refilled it.

Jing Yuan lowered his thick eyelashes, and sat cross-legged beside him quietly dealing with the shrimp dumplings.

Jing Fuling leaned on the beam, chewed the vegetables and said vaguely: "How do you plan to deal with the third door tomorrow?"

"Are you going tomorrow? Could it be that you expect me to really beat all my opponents and become the number one among the three?" Ye Liuzhou asked.

"Otherwise, why were you allowed to participate? You must know that there is a reward of 500 taels for each entrance. It is estimated that the money has already been sent to our courtyard at this moment."

Ye Liuzhou supported his face with one hand, and said lazily: "With my three-legged cat skills, it is purely accidental that I won today."

Jing Fuling took a sip of the wine, smacked her lips, "I'm sure I can win tomorrow, you know, senior brother lent you the Chuan Luan Sword, and he wouldn't let me touch it on weekdays."

Ye Liuzhou smiled and glanced at Jing Yuan.

After the three of them finished their meal, they got off the beam, cleared away the empty dishes, piled them on the stove, bypassed the dozing boy, and returned to the small courtyard.

The night was dark, Ye Liuzhou was a little sleepy, he fetched a basin of well water into the house, washed his face with icy cold water, waited for both of them to fall asleep, opened the wooden door quietly, and walked out.

Walking along the bluestone road full of green bamboos, the moonlight falls on the ground in fragments through the hidden branches and leaves.

He found Wanhong's residence from a distance, and there were two guards guarding the door. He walked around to the backyard, climbed up the wall carefully, and lay down on the top of the wall to look down.

I saw the figure of a man appearing in the hot spring filled with mist. It was hazy and somewhat unreal. Only his back above the water could be seen. The muscle texture was just right, but it was covered with criss-cross wounds, some even Not yet healed, bleeding and dripping in the water.

Ye Liuzhou recognized Xu Yan just by looking at his back. He was startled by those wounds, and when he moved his feet, a small stone bullet fell to the ground, making a soft sound.

Then he suddenly heard the wind whistling in front of him, and before he had time to dodge, he felt a blur in front of his eyes, his whole body was lifted by a strong force, he strangled his neck tightly, and held himself in the water with a crash.

The water splashed in all directions, Ye Liuzhou sank to the bottom of the water, almost suffocating his breath, death struck in an instant, and he instinctively grabbed the opponent's hand and struggled.

"Ye Liuzhou?" Xu Yan's fierce movements suddenly stopped, and he recognized the man in the water who was almost killed by him, carried him ashore, and raised his hand along his back.

Ye Liuzhou propped his arms on the ground, lowered his head and coughed violently, and asked before he could get his breath out, "You, why did you suffer such a serious injury?"

Xu Yan half-kneeled on the ground, only wrapped a cloth towel around his lower body, he said: "It's just a small injury, why are you here, I thought it was a dead soldier sent by Yuan Xuanfeng."

Both of them were dripping with water from top to bottom, quite embarrassed, Ye Liuzhou broke his shoulder, and the wounds all over Xu Yan's body were torn open because of the action just now.

"Is there any medicine in the house?"

Xu Yan got up, Ye Liuzhou held him down: "I'll get it."

"It's in the cabinet on the left." Xu Yan looked at his back.

At night, the light breeze swayed the bamboo leaves, casting a thick green shadow, swaying and scattered on the two of them.

Ye Liuzhou applied the medicine for him and tied the bandages round and round. Because of his raw hands, he looked messy.

Xu Yan didn't care, and looked down at him, his tense brows loosened inch by inch, and the corners of his mouth were raised up.

"Are these healed scars left by you falling into the sea before?" Ye Liuzhou asked.

"It's not all. After I fell into the sea, I survived a catastrophe, but when I landed, I was hunted down by two groups of people. One was Yuan Xuanfeng's people, and the other was meticulous. I haven't found out yet. I met Wanhong and recruited capable people to replace him. Participate in the three-door competition, take the opportunity to join your subordinates to avoid those dead men, and come to Lingbei with him, I know that if you are okay, you will definitely go to the capital."

Ye Liuzhou fastened the bandage, knowing that he didn't want to attract the dead man, and even finding out that he would drag himself down, so he kept avoiding him.

He thought for a while, and said, "Are you going to win the three-door contest next time, and stay by Yuan Xuanfeng's side and wait for an opportunity to eradicate him? Actually, that's not necessary. Your skill in passing two doors is enough to attract Yuan Xuanfeng's attention. You should be there During the period before the arrival of the officials sent by the Ji family, healed the wound."

He continued: "As for Wan Hong, just kill him directly."

"You've already made up your mind? If I don't do it, who do you plan to kill Wanhong?" Xu Yan's eyes fell on Ye Liuzhou's fair neck, where the bruises were particularly conspicuous, "It's that kid from Jingyuan ?"
