Fan Yang yelled, "Young master is not good, something is not good", while rushing into the courtyard door, only to be empty - the courtyard was quiet and empty, the bedroom door was half-closed, and the table There are still uncollected dishes, the porridge has cooled completely, but no one is there.

Fan Yang wondered, "Where did you go this early in the morning?"

While hesitating, someone shouted outside: "Chief Escort, another letter has arrived!"

Fan Yang hurriedly turned over and walked out the door, saying: "Here it is, show me the letter..."

The Luming Escort Bureau suddenly received an anonymous letter, threatening to come to worship the "Big Dipper Huangu Gong" within three days. Fan Yang felt strange, so he came to Wen Heng to discuss countermeasures.However, he never expected that this letter was just a snowflake before the storm started. Darts, or hang a bloody coat on the gate of the escort agency in the middle of the night... Anyway, there are all kinds of things, all kinds of strange things, but all of them have only one purpose: to get the Luming escort agency to hand over Wen Heng and the "Big Dipper Huangu Magic Art" in his hand.

Fan Yang had no choice but to close the door to thank the guests and suspend all the business of the Luming Bodyguard Agency.

But what worries him the most is not the endless harassment, but the behind-the-scenes owner of the Luming Bodyguard Bureau, his backbone, Wen Heng, who hasn't appeared since the early morning of that day.

Xue Qinglan disappeared with him.

Fan Yang was on the verge of losing his mind every day. He spread his hands to search around, and even went to Yueying Mountain himself, but all of them returned in vain.It was too late when he realized that something was wrong. During the two days when he hesitated and thought that Wen Heng had just gone out for a short time, Xue Qinglan had already left Zhanchuan City with the stunned Wen Heng and set off for the north. Go to Muzhou.

A few days later, outside Yanzhou city.

Yanzhou is the junction of Jiuqu, Muzhou, and Tuozhou. Although it is an important gateway, because it is sandwiched between the three major forces, there is no established martial arts sect. There are, but it is also convenient for those martial arts practitioners who do not want to reveal their identities. As long as they change into ordinary clothes and do not touch anyone, they can quietly blend into Yanzhou City without anyone noticing.

A group of people rode through the woods and rushed to the countryside. After galloping for almost a meal, they saw a manor house hidden in the green shade in front of it. , there are four large characters inscribed on the door plaque, which read "Fengping Mountain Villa".

Everyone reined in their horses and stopped in front of the suspension bridge. One of the men in gray stepped forward and asked who was coming from the other side. Extremely extraordinary.The leader sitting on the horseback replied loudly: "I am here from Siyou Mountain, and I am here to pay a visit to the Dharma protector by the order of the Patriarch."

The two guards exchanged a few words, and made a gesture from a distance, and then someone moved the mechanism from the villa, lowered the suspension bridge, and allowed them to ride their horses through.

Someone in the cavalry whispered: "It's such a big battle, and it's not the Chui Xingzong's own territory, so it's worth mobilizing the troops like this?"

Amidst the clatter of horseshoes, the companion beside him replied in a low voice: "Although it is not an important place for sects, it is also a very important place for contact—didn't you see how many ambush archers went down in the forest when he waved just now?"

The man really didn't pay attention. Hearing what he said, he hurriedly took a look back while crossing the bridge, and this time he noticed that there were dots among the dense branches and leaves around him, like the broken light on the surface of the river. It was the sunlight shining on the arrow. , reflecting a dazzling edge.

After crossing the suspension bridge, everyone got off their horses and walked inside.Walking through the courtyard surrounded by luxuriant flowers and trees and clear streams, and came to the main hall, the attendant in gray made a "please" gesture and said in a calm tone: "Your honored guest, please wait a moment, my master will be here soon."

The leader bowed his hands to him, said "Thank you" politely, and led his subordinates to sit down separately.After a while, a servant brought tea, but the man just sat upright and did not reach out to touch the tea bowl.

After a while, a pale blue figure turned out from the back hall, with almost no footsteps, it was a pale and handsome young man with loose long hair, with a tired face on his face.He looked younger than everyone present, and he was clearly a flimsy, vulnerable little boy, but the leader was extremely cautious, and even a little afraid. Seeing him coming, he hurriedly stood up and said, "I have seen Guardian Xue."

Xue Qinglan waved his hand to signal him to sit down and talk, walked to the seat in front of the main seat, and asked casually, "Who are you?"

"My lord, Li Zhi," the man replied respectfully, "is a disciple of the Chu family's Sword Sect."

"Oh," Xue Qinglan said, "Why isn't the surname Chu?"

Li Zhi: "..."

This was the question he hated the most in his life, but Xue Qinglan had to give him face.Just as Li Zhi was searching for words and sentences in his belly, thinking about how to explain the matter in a tactful and decent manner, Xue Qinglan seemed to have skipped an irrelevant topic, and continued to ask: "What are you here for?"

Li Zhi choked up a bit, and then said: "The Patriarch of our faction had an agreement with the Patriarch of your sect, and I heard that the Dharma Protector has succeeded in one fell swoop, so I take the liberty to come to see you, and I still need to discuss the big plan with the Dharma Protector."

Xue Qinglan sneered, held a teacup and said, "I've already done all the bad things, why don't you dare to say it out loud? Wen Heng has been captured by me, and he is currently locked in the dungeon of the villa—you Isn't that what you want to hear?"

Li Zhi smiled apologetically and said: "The guardian's eyes are as bright as a torch, that's exactly the case. Since Wen Heng has already been arrested without a fight, I also ask the guardian to hand this person over to me, and I will go back and report to the Patriarch."

Xue Qinglan supported his head, as if he was still tired, and said lazily: "The Chu family's sword sect has such a big air, it has stretched out its hands in front of me."

The tone was obviously chatty, but Li Zhi's heart "thumped", and the hairs on his back suddenly rose, and he immediately realized that he had said something wrong and offended this ancestor.

"If Chu Songzheng is really old and confused, he should go back to take care of the elderly as soon as possible, and don't disturb the wind and rain here, and he won't be afraid that the waves will break his bones." Xue Qinglan sneered harshly, "How many people think about Wen Heng's status now? Do you want his head on his neck? You want to take people away from me as soon as you touch your upper and lower lips, do you think I am very easy to deceive, or does your faction simply not take the Hanging Star Sect seriously?"

Li Zhi was covered in cold sweat, he hurriedly got up and pleaded guilty: "Dharma protector, calm down, I made a slip of the tongue, this party has always respected the Chuxing Xingzong, and there is no intention of lying!"

Xue Qinglan didn't speak, just sat high on the chief seat, staring at him indifferently.

Li Zhi arched his back, only feeling that his gaze was so heavy that he wanted to push himself into the dust.The lobby is empty, everyone else is sitting, only he stands in the middle like a clown, obsequiously acting humble, the humiliation brought to him by this scene is almost as great as when he was in Yueying Mountain back then, he repeatedly The shame of being defeated by Wen Heng's subordinates time and time again, and finally being kicked out by the Chunjun faction.

But so what?Time has passed, and now he has become Chu Songzheng's confidant by virtue of his own abilities, while Wen Heng has become a prisoner. Even if Xue Qinglan holds him in his hands, he will eventually be at the mercy of Chu Xingzong and the Chu Family Sword Sect, and die due to his careful planning Down?

Bitter hatred flashed in Li Zhi's eyes, even the shame of bowing his head in front of Xue Qinglan was diluted a little.Speaking of it, Xue Qinglan is not a good thing. When facing him, no matter how he looks or how he behaves, there is always a sense of aloofness and arrogance-but Xue Qinglan always has the confidence to be arrogant, and Wen Heng's poor and white and pretending to be aloof is really impressive. People hate.

"The protector must also know that the "Big Dipper Huangu Shengong" has long been lost and is not in Wen Heng's hands. We just want to use a knife to kill people, so we deliberately spread some rumors outside." Li Zhi settled down, reorganized his thoughts, and said to Xue Qinglan: " I understand the concerns of the law protectors, and our faction also trusts the law protectors. Since the law protectors are determined not to surrender, Wen Heng will stay in Guizhuang for the time being. Let Wen Heng go to the meeting in person, and after the matter is completed, our faction will fulfill its promise to the Chuxing Xingzong."

Xue Qinglan seemed to be reluctantly satisfied this time, and said coolly: "Okay. It's a 'Knife Trial Conference'. The Chu family is going to sing a big show, so I'll come and join in."

Only then did Li Zhi straighten his waist slightly, thought for a while and said: "I have another merciless request."

Xue Qinglan said impatiently: "Speak."

"This..." he said with awe, "I have met Wen Heng once, and I want to go to the dungeon to have a look at him, and I hope the guardian will allow it."

"Do you recognize him?" Xue Qinglan glanced at him in disbelief, and said sarcastically, "I'm still afraid that I will deceive you, and want to go to the dungeon to confirm whether Wen Heng was really captured by me?"

Li Zhi hurriedly said "I dare not", but did not explain further, obviously acquiescing to Xue Qinglan's statement.

Although Xue Qinglan was quite rude to Li Zhi, it was after all the Chui Xingzong and the Chu Family Sword Sect joining forces, and it was impossible for him not to give the Chu family face completely, so seeing Li Zhi's insistence, he nodded slightly and said, "Yes. "

"But you are the only one who can go in." Xue Qinglan nodded at the people behind him, "There shouldn't be any old friends with Wen Heng among these people, right?"

Li Zhi understood it, and said with a smile: "No. Then I will have to protect the law."

Xue Qinglan, the host, led Li Zhi to the backyard. After the figures of the two disappeared completely behind the screen, the rest of the people breathed a sigh of relief. One thing... It's strange that a well-behaved jade tree actually voted for the Hanging Star Sect. No matter which sect he puts in, he will end up with the same goal in the end, running all the way in the direction of the devil.

Fengping Mountain Villa occupies a vast area and has many traps, so it took half an hour to go there.When the two returned to the main hall, Li Zhi bowed slightly to Xue Qinglan, and said, "I've been bothering you a lot today, so I'll take my leave. On the fifteenth day of this month, our faction will be waiting for Guardian Xue at Hengwu Mountain."

Xue Qinglan raised his hand, didn't even look at him, and said indifferently: "Come, see off."
