Dragon?

Before Qiao Zhi's cold recovered, a major event happened in the palace. —The emperor was assassinated.

As a result, he had to drag his sick body out of Tianming Pavilion to pray for the emperor.

Among the concubines who were weeping and vying to show their loyalty, Tianshi pressed his drowsy forehead irritably: "If the emperor is injured, can he be honest and let the imperial doctor see a doctor?"What can I pray for?

Qiao Zhi didn't know that the celestial master's blessing was more magical than the prescription given by the imperial doctor, and it was the panacea that most reassured the emperor.After the matter of praying for rain, Emperor Zhengyang's trust in the ability of the Celestial Master has reached its peak.After being assassinated, he took his last breath, not shouting "escort" or "catch the assassin", but "Su Tianshi", as if as long as Tianshi was willing to save himself, he would guarantee that he would not die.

He worked hard to pretend to be a magic stick, tried hard to resist sleepiness while reciting words and closed his eyes, until it was dawn, and Master Tianshi was let go by the crowd who "sincerely hoped that the emperor will recover".

The assassin who escaped last night has not yet been caught, and there are two more patrols in the palace.

Seeing the celestial master, a row of people saluted respectfully.

Noticing this scene, Qiao Zhi became wary, and couldn't help but glance at the rockery when he walked into the courtyard.

There were not so many flowers, plants and strange rocks in front of Tianming Pavilion, because he and Longdandan concealed their identities, they deliberately built it like this, it is an excellent hiding place.

After observing a certain detail of the rockery, Qiao Zhi's heart sank.

The people on the patrol team didn't understand the mystery, but the people who placed the stone formation could tell at a glance—someone had broken into it.

Strictly speaking, the person who assassinated Zheng Yangdi was not his enemy.It's just that if a person is discovered here, it will be more troublesome for him.

Stepping lightly into the rockery, turning a corner, Qiao Zhi saw a small piece of black.

As he approached, a man in night clothes collapsed there.

He looked exhausted, his mask torn off and thrown aside.The man's face was a little horrified, as if he had been severely beaten by someone, it was red and swollen like a pig's head.

"Oh, oh!" The man in black looked at him with trembling lips, and yelled.

"...??"

An assassin with strong martial arts and a sword and a celestial master who has no power to restrain a chicken, logically speaking, he should be the one to be afraid of, right?

"you you you……"

After fumbling around for a long time, he finally took out the long sword that fell beside him. The man raised the sword and waved it in the air, complaining angrily: "Su Zhiyou? I was beaten like this by you, and you still have to chase me out!" Keep hitting me!"

— This man knows himself.

——This person was beaten by Dragon Egg.

Qiao Zhi didn't speak, and quietly looked at the man in front of him.

The rough eyebrows, the sensual thick lips, the air of a bandit that came from nowhere...it does look familiar.

Um, the face is too swollen, it's very difficult.

He wanted to take a closer look, but the man immediately reacted and pointed his sword at him: "Don't come here! I'm calling the patrol team!"

— Cough, brother, you are an assassin, called a patrol team?you sure?

——How could you be beaten like this by Dragon Eggy... Did you hurt your brain?

Qiao Zhi stared at him steadfastly, with puzzled eyes and a bit of bewilderment.

"Why should I hit you?"

The assassin wanted to vomit a mouthful of blood, and the sentence "Don't pretend to be amnesia" was about to blurt out.

However, with a turn of his eyes, the confusion in the boy's eyes instantly dissipated.

Pushing away the sword pointed at the tip of his nose sharply, he said with a half-smile, "Don't you think it's your fault? I never hit people for no reason."

Dare to love is not a question, but an irony, and the man felt aggrieved without confidence.

"I... I'm just excited to see my old friend! I just touched your little hand."

As he spoke, he made a pulling motion.Then it was like touching soft tofu, loving it, stroking and kneading sticking to it.

After watching the whole episode, Qiao Zhi understood everything.

"Oh, you touched my little hand?" He laughed.

The man swallowed, thinking that it was a bit strange for him to call his hands "little hands" together with himself, but this kid Su Zhi was much prettier than when he was a child.That dimple is really indescribably sweet, no matter how you look at it, it feels beautiful.

Before he could comprehend the deep meaning of the words, the man saw the smiling face approaching swiftly.

Then, a pain in the chest...

"Then you should fight."

Qiao Zhi kicked the man to the ground heavily. ——Hehe, only he can touch Longdandan's small hands, okay?

Not interested in fighting, he stared at the man curled up in a circle on the ground, waiting for him to leave on his own.

The assassin clutched his heart in pain, and it took a long time before he breathed a sigh of relief.

The eviction order on the young man's face was quite obvious, and it was his last affection not to call anyone over.

The man stood up with difficulty by the sword, and aimed at the exit of the rockery.

"Su Zhi, you really won't come with me?"

Fangzheng's face was full of solemnity, he gritted his teeth, and tried his best to persuade him word by word.

"Following my master, you will have a better development. I assure you, it will be a thousand times better than staying with this stupid king."

Qiao Zhi said nothing, and made a "please" gesture to him.

"I don't know good people!"

The man spat and took a step forward.

After walking a few steps, he was really unwilling and turned back.

"Aren't you good at divination? Knowing the secrets of the world, can you predict the future?!"

That expressionless, hard-to-talk face made the man completely anxious.

He grabbed the young man by the collar and shouted: "My master is the one you've been looking for! You will transform the dragon on the day of Yulong, you must know what it means!!"

His hands were extremely strong, and he didn't look like he was seriously injured.

Qiao Zhi was shocked.

It was only after this sentence that he realized that what the man was trying to persuade was not Su Tianshi's submission, but what he wanted was the dragon. ——Or, what his master wanted was a dragon.

The day of Yulong will transform the dragon. These seven words remind Qiao Zhi of who is in front of him and who is his master.

It turned out to be my childhood acquaintance, Bi Chong'an, the martial idiot who let Dragon Dandan go in prison.

Bi Chong'an worked for Qiao Xi. According to his status... the noble fifth prince of the former dynasty was his elder brother.

Naturally, Qiao Zhi didn't understand what it means to "turn into a dragon on the day of Yulong", he is not a dragon.

But, listening to Bi Chongan's context, what he said now, he has already mentioned it to the real dragon.

How did Dragon Egg answer?

Qiao Xi is the person it has been looking for?Impossible, Dragon Dandan eats and sleeps every day, sleeps and eats, and never sees who it is looking for.

"What did I tell you before..."

Qiao Zhi repeated his tricks to deceive him: "What I mean, don't you understand?"

His throat was dry, and his voice trembled slightly.

Bi Zhongan stared at him.

Qiao Zhi tried his best to distinguish, but in the end he couldn't understand the look in his eyes.

"Hmm..." Bi Chong'an said, "Okay."

——So you guessed right?Dragon Dandan decisively rejected him?

--All right?What is "okay"?If Long didn't reject him, it seems that he can answer like this...

Bi Chongan turned his head twice, and slowly disappeared into the morning light of Tianming Pavilion.

Qiao Zhi clenched his fists and suppressed it a few times, holding back the urge to rush up and ask for clarification.
