Murder

Song Beiyan's face was dull.

He learned things from Wen Xuanzhou, and Wen Xuanzhou took him in and took care of him, like a teacher and a father.So he learned whatever Wen Xuanzhou taught him, and never had any doubts.

Gan's happy words did not offend him.According to Song Beiyan, Gan Lele just had some doubts in his heart and raised them normally.Besides, taking a ten thousand step back, even if Wen Xuanzhou is good at using poison, it is not surprising or bad.

Master... is not a bad person.Song Beiyan thought uncertainly.

Besides, Wen Xuanzhou is no longer alive, so how could these things have anything to do with him?

"I don't know." He said cautiously, "But I really saw a three-inch snake with Master."

"Fine." Gan Lele had no intention of getting entangled in this issue, so he turned his head and continued to make his tea, "Hurry up and make the medicine!"

Sima Liangren and Fu Guqing didn't want to delay, so they immediately set off for Qinghe City with Sima Feng that day.Ah Si naturally followed, with a stomach full of words and unable to talk to Song Beiyan, very tormented.

A group of people rode forward and arrived at Pingyang Town where Yingbeishe was located in the evening.Fu Guqing proposed that it would be better to spend the night in Yingbeishe, and continue on the road tomorrow morning, and the time when they arrived at Qinghe City was just right.Sima Liang had no opinion, and Sima Feng would never raise any opinion.

He kept silent all the way, silently sorting out what his father told him in the blinding darkness.

Before he set off, he had a conversation with Sima Liangren. Sima Liangren was also very surprised when he heard that Wen Xuanzhou appeared in Rongqing City, so he told Sima Feng about Wen Xuanzhou from the beginning to the end.

Wen Xuanzhou's ancestral home is unknown, and he said that he left his hometown to wander when he was young, and his life experience is somewhat similar to that of Song Beiyan.It's just that Song Beiyan was taken in by Wen Xuanzhou, a plain-headed commoner, but Wen Xuanzhou was taken in by the captain of the Lu Palace's guard.

At that time, King Lu was out hunting, and the captain of the guard found a dirty child outside the hunting ground, with scars all over his body scratched by wild animals.The captain had no wife and no children. Seeing that the child was only five or six years old but was injured like this by a wild beast, he was very distressed and decided to take him by his side.His surname is Wen, and the master of Prince Lu's mansion gave the child a name, Wen Xuanzhou.After that, the captain taught him martial arts, and the master taught him to read and write.

Prince Lu has only one son, who is about the same age as Wen Xuanzhou, and they grew up playing together since childhood.After Wen Xuanzhou lived in Lu Wang's mansion for two or three years, the father and son encountered a gangster on the way to worship their ancestors in Qingming. The captain of the guard was seriously injured and died. Wen Xuanzhou has never been seen since.

After more than ten years passed, the old prince died, and the young prince who was about the same age as Wen Xuanzhou became King Lu, and the new Prince Lu also had a son.He searched for a suitable teacher for his son, and one day he saw Wen Xuanzhou among the people who came to recommend him.

Wen Xuanzhou didn't say much about the more than ten years of blankness in the middle, he only said that he swallowed his anger and worked as a slave in the gangster's stronghold for a few years, and then he looked for opportunities to escape and wandered outside all the time.Prince Lu missed his old friend very much, and because he was really talented, he happily kept him.The young prince of the Lu Palace didn’t like this teacher, and repeatedly opposed him. Wen Xuanzhou stayed in the Lu Palace for a few years, and the young prince gradually grew up, so he resigned to the Lu King, saying only that he Aim in the Quartet, want to go out and travel.King Lu didn't keep him and let him leave.

Afterwards, Wen Xuanzhou occasionally went to Lu Wang's mansion to catch up with him, and brought some interesting things from the northern and southern frontiers.When Sima Liang came to ask for help, it happened that Wen Xuanzhou was at the mansion, so King Lu recommended Wen Xuanzhou to him.

In this seemingly uncomplicated experience, the only thing worthy of scrutiny is the more than ten years when Wen Xuanzhou disappeared.

And because these things were all reported by King Lu to Sima Liangren, it is unknown whether there are any omissions.After Sima Liangren brought Wen Xuanzhou back to Sima's house, he kept an extra thought and told Fu Guqing to take good care of this distinguished guest, then immediately rushed to Yingbeishe to find Chi Yebai's parents.

The real founder of Yingbeishe is Chi Yebai's father, Chi Xingjian, who has far more resources in the world than the current Chi Yebai.Sima Liangren personally came to the door to inform that he had found a miracle doctor who could cure Chi Yebai. The couple were also looking for strange people in the world at that time, and they were relieved to hear the news.Sima Liangren informed Chi Xingjian about Wen Xuanzhou, and Chi Xingjian and Yingsuo immediately arranged for people to search for information about Wen Xuanzhou.Ten days later, the sub-houses in each city sent eagles back one after another, but the news gathered was surprising.

The more than ten years when Wen Xuanzhou disappeared was completely blank.

Ying Beishe's method of detecting information is extremely powerful, as long as the person who wants to investigate has lived in this world, it is impossible not to leave any traces.Yingbeisheren, who are good at tracking clues, can only trace the clues before Wen Xuanzhou disappeared and after he reappeared. Wen Xuanzhou's so-called bandit village has never taken in such children.

That day, the captain of the guard took a young boy back to his hometown to visit relatives. There were indeed trail-cutters on that road, but the captain of the guard did not die on that road.He died in the mountains less than twenty miles away from Pengyang City, before he even started his journey home.The murder case was suppressed, and no one even investigated the disappearance of the child.And the one who ordered not to be traced was the boss of the captain of the guard, the old King Lu back then.

After spending more than ten years in the middle, Wen Xuanzhou reappeared as a man full of martial arts and knowledge.

When Sima Feng heard it, the strange feeling in his heart became more and more intense.

Wen Xuanzhou was only eight or nine years old when he and the captain returned home, and he did not have the ability to kill the captain of the guard.Who killed his adoptive father?

Such a young child, if he is alone all the time, cannot have the opportunity to take good care of himself and learn.Who is raising him?

"If calculated according to the time, when Wen Xuanzhou followed Rong Jian in Rongqing City, it should be the time when he asked the King of Lu to resign and said that he would go on a tour." Sima Liangren said, "He traveled ten times in this tour. A few years, it is intriguing."

"Father, don't you think it's strange for him to appear in the past ten years or so?" Sima Feng said, "The guards are so lax outside the hunting ground where the prince is hunting? It's too weird for a child to get close."

"What are you suspecting?" Sima Liang asked.

Sima Feng did not answer immediately.He was thinking about many things that had happened recently.

"Father, I'm thinking about Xiaobai's medicine." Sima Feng said in a deep voice, "Uncle Chi and the others tried their best to get a life-saving magic medicine for Xiaobai, and asked him to carry it with him at all times and not show it to others. Don't give it to others. But although Xiaobai's actions in the Jianghu are easy to make enemies, it is by no means so dangerous that he needs to carry this pill with him to save his life."

He couldn't see Sima Liangren's expression, but he knew that Sima Liangren's silence was to allow him to continue talking.

"There is nothing in the world that Ying Beishe can't find, even..." Sima Feng lowered his voice, "Even what kind of shoes and socks you wear under your feet today, what kind of food you eat every day, and what things are hidden under your bed. , as long as Ying Beishe wants to find out, there is no reason why he can't find out."

Sima Liangren said slowly: "You mean, Xingjian said that he couldn't find it, but he couldn't find it, but he couldn't tell me?"

"What else in the world can make Ying Beishe so fearful, other than court secrets?" Sima Feng said.

Sima Liang stroked his beard carefully, and fell silent again.

He admitted that what Sima Feng said had some truth.The child must have thought of the imperial court because of the relationship between Wen Xuanzhou and the Lu Palace, so he felt that Ying Beishe's statement was not credible.

If Chi Xingjian found out Wen Xuanzhou's secret, but refused to tell himself and only used "blank" to prevaricate, it meant that if Sima Liangren found out about this secret, Sima Liangren would be in danger of killing himself.

The more he thought about it, the more it made sense.

The only one who could save Chi Yebai that day was the so-called god-man Wen Xuanzhou.Even though Chi Xingjian and Ying Suo found out that there was a terrible secret in Wen Xuanzhou, for the sake of their own children, they could only bear with his activities, turned around and begged the pen-washer for medicine, as a remedy.

Or maybe Wen Xuanzhou's secrets were related to court secrets, but they would not threaten Chi Yebai and their two families, so Wen Xuanzhou was not alarmed.

The father and son couldn't discuss other possibilities, and they heard Fu Guqing's urging outside the door, so they set off for Yingbeishe, intending to find an opportunity to inquire carefully when they arrived.

As soon as the group arrived in Pingyang Town, they saw Murong Hai riding a tall horse waiting by the side of the road.

Yingbeishe's spies had already sent the news back to Pingyang, and Chi Xingjian and his wife were discussing matters with Chi Yebai, so they sent Murong Hai out to meet him.

"The boat just came back, and it's full of fresh fish and shrimp. Tonight, you will have a good time." After Murong Hai finished speaking, he changed the subject, "But Patriarch Sima can't eat it. You have an injury on your body, I'm afraid it will heal slowly if you eat it. .”

"...I'm not afraid." Sima Feng said, "Eat what you should."

"That won't work." Murong Hai said, "You lose your eyesight, if you get hurt again because of eating fish and shrimp, it will be bad."

Fu Guqing hurriedly said: "Murong's words are very reasonable."

Sima Feng thought to himself that he had arrived at Yingbeishe, what if he didn't eat fish and shrimp? !While thinking about it, he suddenly felt the sound of a whip beside him, and he quickly reached out to grab it.The result was Murong Hai's whip.

"Oh, I made a mistake." Murong Hai smiled, "Patriarch Sima's clothes are about the same color as my horse's, so I missed him."

His words became more and more unruly, Sima Liangren and Fu Guqing's hearts lit up, and they asked at the same time: "Son, are you making Mu Ya angry again?"

Ah Si thought in his heart, that is for sure.It must be the leader of the Rongqing sub-house who returned to Yingbei house and told Murong Hai about the young master belittled young master Chi.

... thin? ? ?

Ah Si was startled, not knowing why he used such a word.

And I don't know how to share my journey with Murong Hai.

A group of people were talking, and soon came to Yingbeishe.

Built on a cliff, Yingbeishe is a vast mountain villa surrounded by the sea on three sides, with magnificent scenery.At this time, the evening clouds are burning, the sea and the sky are uniform, the sound of gulls flapping their wings and crowing is endless, the horn of returning to Hong Kong is faintly heard, the waves are beating against the rocks, and the waves are rumbling.The towering houses are shrouded in the sun, and the white exterior walls glow with warm colors, which is refreshing.

Sima Feng took a deep breath, swallowing the fishy smell of the sea that he was very familiar with.In the thick darkness, he keenly caught a familiar breathing sound, which was very clear among all kinds of sounds.

"Xiaobai!" He greeted with a smile, "Are you here to pick me up?"

Chi Yebai ignored his greeting and only said hello to Sima Liangren and Fu Guqing.

"Uncle came just in time." He said, "something happened in Qinghe City next door, maybe the government will look for you in these two days."
