Shi Yun Ⅱ Sings Crickets Last Night

Baoyu City.

All major sects from all over the world gathered here for the conference, and Baoyu City was unprecedentedly grand.All kinds of entertainment venues, which are already popular, are crowded with each other and are very lively.

The prosperous commerce and trade in Baoyu City also relieved Xiangyu Pavilion of the pressure of entertaining guests. Just throw those sect disciples from deep mountains and old forests into Baoyu City, and they would be able to enjoy themselves for a whole day.

After all, many novel life spiritual tools have not been sold to the outside world, and many spiritual master sects have never seen them.

People say that if there are any spirit implements that cannot be bought elsewhere, it is sure to be rewarding if you go to Baoyu City.But if there is not even Baoyu City, then there is no such thing in the world.

Boss Gou of Chengxi Spirit Tool Factory followed behind a man in black very respectfully, thanking him again and again, "Great kindness, great virtue, I will never forget it! If you hadn't helped Xiaochang get in touch with the supplier of spirit stones, Within three days, our factory will not be able to turn around."

On a normal day, with Baoyucheng's strength, he would naturally lack spiritual tools.But this time, the scale and purchasing power of the sightseeing groups of the major sects are not comparable to those in the past, and they have brought a lot of pressure to this large commercial and agricultural city.

Major vendors and clubs are frequently out of stock.

Several spirit tool factories on the outskirts of the city worked overtime day and night, and the lights had not been turned off for half a month.

The government tax department is also working overtime non-stop, and the abacus in the room is almost sparking.

Although the man in black is covered with a bamboo hat and black gauze, he looks like a murderous person, but he is very easy-going.

He stretched out his leather gloved hand and waved it, "Boss Gou doesn't have to be so polite, it's the right thing to do. In the future, remember to give us a little more discount for the 'Ice Shabu' that your factory sells outside the city. "

"That's natural, that's natural!" Boss Gou rubbed his hands, his face wrinkled with a smile.

When Baoyu City was in a state of desperation, thanks to the support of the "Gonglian" called by the people in black, Baoyu City's trade was not ruined and its reputation was not ruined.

The full name of "Supplier Union" is "Baoyu City Supply and Purchaser Alliance", which is a supply and purchaser organization certified by the Baoyu City government, and has established a business contact network and a goods supply chain covering the entire Baoyu City.

The man in black called out: "Yueran, detached."

A man and a woman following the man in black were summoned to say hello to Boss Gou.

"In the future, the 'Gonglian' will be in charge of the two of them. If there is any need, just go to them. In the future, the four districts of Baoyu City will establish a branch of the 'Gonglian'. Just send people to the branch for small things. .”

After hearing this, Boss Gou showed surprise, "Boss Xuan, are you really leaving?"

"It seems that everyone is well-informed." The man in black chuckled, "It is estimated that many vendors in Baoyu City should know about it."

Boss Gou stayed and said: "Boss Xuan, all businesses in Baoyu City can't do without the 'Gonglian', why are you willing to leave us? Old Gou, I speak bluntly and harshly, but Boss Xuan, you have to listen to my advice. Is there a better place in the world to make money than Baoyu City? Thanks for leaving!"

"Boss Gou has one heart, Xuan Mou understands." The man in black seemed to be smiling and sighed.

Seeing this, Boss Gou's eyes lit up, and he said happily, "So, Boss Xuan, you don't plan to leave?"

The man in black shook his head, with a bit of helplessness in his words, "I still have to go. It's not that Xuan wants to go, he just has to go."

"how do I say this?"

The two buyers, a man and a woman, retreated, leaving enough room for them.

The man in black lowered his voice, and whispered in Boss Gou's ear: "To tell the truth, Xuan has offended Xiangyu Pavilion. Tell me, can I stay here?"

"This, what should I do..." Boss Gou's eyes almost fell out.

"So, in this business, you should not be too greedy. Greed is not enough to swallow an elephant!"

The man in black patted Boss Gou on the shoulder, "But Boss Gou, don't worry, my personal grievances with Xiangyu Pavilion will not affect the 'Gonglian', and Xiangyu Pavilion will not make things difficult for all the suppliers and collectors in the city. Business matters You can rest assured."

Boss Gou looked regretful, "Boss Xuan, Boss Xuan, tell me, why are you... oh!"

The two bosses said a few more polite words, and said goodbye to each other with a few auspicious words of "business is booming" and "financial resources are rolling in".

Walking out of the Chengxi Spirit Tool Factory, two carriages were already waiting outside.

After explaining the final trivial matters clearly, Xuan Zifeng finally finished all the work and bid farewell to his partner.

The night in Baoyu City is always very bright, the soft light of Lingshi lamps sprinkles on the road, one carriage goes south, the other goes north, heading in different directions.

Lifting the curtain of the car window, Xuan Zifeng looked at the street scene of Baoyu City through the black gauze bamboo hat.In the sway of the carriage, the green tiles, red walls and dim lights gradually moved away from behind.Together with those colorful memories, they have gradually faded into the past.

The stall selling sugar paintings is owned by a lame old man named Zhang. He only needs an iron spoon filled with syrup to sweeten everything vividly.Nanze Enxi and Mu Yifan teamed up to fight against Uncle Zhang, and they both lost in a mess.

In the teahouse that has been open for more than 30 years, there used to be thirteen middle school two boys full of passion, planning how to catch the peddler selling bone creatures behind their backs and smashing the shop's tea bowls.

Xu butcher at the butcher shop on the street is never short of catties, no matter what the customer asks for, he can cut the meat exactly.Xuan Zifeng once bought pork legs from his family, and spent half a year making a fire pupil in Donglixia. As a result, he was divided up by 25 disciples just two days after it was made.

At this time, the carriage passed by the best eating place in Baoyu City - Wuweilou.

Xuan Zifeng couldn't help but think of the day he was carried to Wuweilou by Tie Xue...

Meng Yanyu stood in the lobby to greet the guests.Cedar refinement forms old taro, and they go up the second floor.Bei Muling insisted on going in with her teeth in her arms, and even argued with Song Yun for a long time.Yu Shiliu didn't take off his facial mask even when he was eating.Mu Yifan asked "Can I eat, drink, prostitute and gamble", and was dragged away by Ju Qingping, who was full of melancholy...

One pile, one piece, was scattered with the wind, and now it can never be picked up again.

He is just a complete liar and an undercover agent with evil intentions. What face does he have to stay here?

The sourness at the tip of his nose made Xuan Zifeng realize his distressed appearance, and he quickly pulled away from this emotion.

"Ari, stop." Xuan Zifeng told the driver to stop.

The driver's name is A Rui, and he has been with him for a long time. He is a very reliable person, and he often takes Xuan Zifeng to do business around Baoyu City.

"You go to Wuweilou and order two dishes for me. Just...'Crab Pot' and 'Crispy Beauty Ji'."

——Maybe I won’t be able to eat it again in the future.

That was Xuan Zifeng's first taste memory about Baoyucheng. Even if he knew the secret recipe of the sauce, he could make it himself, but after all, he couldn't eat the one made by Wuweilou.

"Okay, Boss Xuan, wait a moment!" A Rui responded, and ran to Wuweilou.

After a while, A Rui carried two food boxes wrapped in dark brocade, which were still warm inside.

"Thank you."

Xuan Zifeng's voice was full of laughter, but his face under the black veil of the bamboo hat had already turned cold.

——Who is it that pretends to be Ari?

A Rui is a commoner with spiritual power. His spiritual power is like a low-profile version of "Virgin King Kong". It can increase the strength of muscles, but it will not change the appearance like Iron Blood.

The spirit master's footsteps are lighter than ordinary people's, and his breath is longer and more stable.The person who replaced Ari was very smart, and adjusted his pace and breathing according to Ari's spiritual power level.

But the fake Ari doesn't know that the real Ari's footsteps are heavier than ordinary people because of his special psychic power, and his step frequency is very fast.

If he hadn't been sent to get out of the car to buy something, Xuan Zifeng would have been easily fooled by him.

This person is probably not an ordinary person with spiritual power, but a well-trained spirit master.

— Could it be the Hall of Listening Winds!

Xuan Zifeng's eyes widened suddenly, a chill ran down his spine, and his brain started to work quickly.

The assassination before entering the cabinet, the unprovoked attack by the education chief after entering the cabinet, the secret letter from the listening hall on the table, the peach wine that was spiked...

There are various indications that he is not the only spy in the Lingfengtang who is active in Baoyu City and Xiangyu Pavilion.

Xuan Zifeng subconsciously put his hands on Qiu Chuan at his waist.

Qiu Chuan was already low-key, but now Xuan Zifeng wrapped him up with cloth strips, making him even more ordinary and a bit shabby.

Xuan Zifeng originally wanted to return Qiuchuan to Nanze Enxi, but the connection between his natal Lingwu and him was too close, and Qiuchuan wanted to cover him life and death.In desperation, Xuan Zifeng took Qiuchuan with him, who knew it would come in handy at this time.

If this person is really an undercover agent of the Leafing Hall, Xuan Zifeng should treat it as helping Xiangyu Pavilion to pull out a moth.

At the gate of the city, the fake A Rui took Xuan Zifeng's passport and handed it over to the guards for inspection.

"Boss Xuan, all the formalities have been completed, here is your document." Fake A Rui respectfully returned the document.

After hesitating for a moment, Xuan Zifeng stretched out his hand to the document.

The city gate can be said to be the most unsuitable place for assassination.There are many guards, and there are even floating surveillance from the Xiangyu Pavilion, no matter how you look at it, it is not a place for assassination.

But Xuan Zifeng's spying instinct still made him more wary of this person, he was afraid that this person would use slow-release toxins on the documents.

If Xuan Zifeng was really accidentally recruited, Renliang will have nothing to do with this person in other cities in a few days.

At that time, guards and floating would not record the criminal evidence of this person, but they were the best evidence of the murderer's "innocence".

Attached to the leather gloves with spiritual power, if poisonous needles come, the spiritual power to protect the body is also ready.Xuan Zifeng raised 12 points of vigilance and took back his pass.

Then, in the car, he soaked the document in water, oil, and high-strength liquor to wash away any possible toxins.

The farther away from the Xiangyu Pavilion, the heavier the sense of crisis in Xuan Zifeng's heart, and the weaker the sense of security.He had to take out the thick armor he had thrown away to protect himself who was extremely fragile now.

As if someone was suddenly dragged out of the warm blanket and thrown into the snow and ice in the middle of winter, the state of stress made him feel like he was in danger.

After processing the document, Xuan Zifeng confirmed that there were no hidden weapons, formations or poisons in it, and opened the document casually.

All kinds of seals are stamped on pages of words with different handwriting and different ink colors.From his records when he entered Baoyu City for the first time, to every city on his study tour, and to his last departure this time.

Before he knew it, the documents issued by this Tongtong Building had accompanied him on a long, long journey.He looked at the stamps on the passbook and thought of those who had stamped them with him on the journey.

Xuan Zifeng stared at the document and stood there for a long time in a daze before recovering to put it away.

The crow controlled by sensibility landed on the top of the carriage to observe.

The fake Ari sat upright when driving, much taller than the real Ari.That person imitated Ari's tone of voice and oral habit, but he was not so skillful in his habitual movements. I don't know if he was inferior to others or was in a hurry.

The crow on the roof turned around and flew in the direction of Baoyu City to check the situation in the city.

There was no sound in the late autumn night, perhaps because the air on the road was too quiet.The fake Ah Rui actually took the initiative to speak and chatted with Xuan Zifeng.

"Boss Xuan, you said that after you left, when will you be able to come back?"

Not knowing the other party's intention, Xuan Zifeng pretended to be helpless and said: "I'm afraid I won't be able to come back."

"Ah?! How could this be...then when will you come back and have a look?" Fake Ari asked again.

"That's not necessary." Xuan Zifeng felt a little heavy in his heart, and didn't want to startle the snake, so he simply said: "I'm back, and I don't have anything to worry about."

The night road is not easy to walk, even if there are spirit stone lamps at the four corners of the carriage, it is far worse than the brightly lit streets in Baoyu City.The two horses had a deep foot and a shallow foot, and their speed dropped a lot.

Fake A Rui smacked his lips "tsk tsk", shook his head and said, "Boss Xuan, you are too ruthless, aren't you? You are so chic, what about those who miss you?"

—How could they miss a spy?

"No one misses me." Xuan Zifeng smiled wryly.

"Who said that! Boss Xuan is leaving, so I have to miss you a lot." Fake A Rui continued: "If you have time, you can come back often. Many people may be waiting for you to come back!"

The official road became a little flatter, and the horse's pace picked up again.

Xuan Zifeng began to talk and try, and even threw out the secret words of Lingfengtang.However, this person did not have any special reaction, and failed to detect the information between Xuan Zifeng's words.

——It’s not Lingfengtang, who is that?

"A Rui, haven't you been engaged to the Xue family's youngest daughter recently?" Xuan Zifeng deliberately tried with half-truths and half-false words.

Hearing this, Fake Ari laughed and said: "Boss Xuan, you are such a noble person who forgets things too much. The second daughter of the Xue family is engaged to me, and the youngest daughter is married to a disciple of Tongshilou in Xiangyu Pavilion. I'm not that lucky."

——But besides the Lingfeng Hall, who can remember these trivial things so clearly?

At this moment, the crow finally flew to Ari's house in the city.

I saw A Rui lying on his back on his bed, wondering whether he had slept too "deadly" or was really dead.

Just when Xuan Zifeng was going to let the crow fly closer to observe, the sense of penetration was cut off because the distance was too far.

"Boss Xuan, Boss Xuan? Can you hear me?"

Xuan Zifeng quickly turned around and said, "I was thinking about something just now, where did we go?"

"I just talked about my engagement to Second Miss Xue." Fake A Rui was gossiping while driving, "Hey, Boss Xuan, let me ask you something, have you...married yet?"

"Not yet."

Fake A Rui asked again: "Do you have a sweetheart? Which family's girl is it?"

When the words "sweetheart" fell on his ears, Xuan Zifeng couldn't help being startled, and his face became hot uncontrollably.Fortunately, the black gauze of the bamboo hat and the car curtain can block his instantly flushed face.

"It's nothing, and it's not a girl."

The heat on his face didn't go away, but the apex of his heart began to ache.

Leaving this road, Xuan Zifeng used other things to distract his attention as much as possible, trying not to think of Song Yun too much.

But Xuan Zifeng still couldn't lie to himself.

His already fragmented longing and love stayed by the bedside of Cedar Fragrance, like an ugly and dirty reptile that was crushed and swept into the garbage dump, but still lingering on, trembling and refusing to turn into ashes .

It was his longing and fantasy throughout his youth, the source of his warmth and secret joy, and the pure land he longed for but could not find.

I didn't even have time to say it.

Fake A Rui saw Xuan Zifeng was silent for a long time, so he changed the subject and talked about other things.

"Boss Xuan, you're away from home. You don't bring anyone with you to serve you, and you don't have a companion. I'm afraid that you will encounter some danger. By the way, I heard that the snowstorm in the north and the thunderstorm in the spirit sky are particularly severe. You have to go around Let's go..."

This fake Ari was really good at chatting, from national affairs to local customs, from health care to basic necessities of life, he could chatter a few words, reminding Xuan Zifeng to pay attention to personal safety and health.

"The world is so big, and Boss Xuan is one of the dragons and phoenixes, so he must go for it!"

On the bumpy carriage, the voice of Bao Yucheng's accent made the night not so dead.

This journey, whether long or short, finally reached the end at dawn.

Xuan Zifeng was not sure whether this person belonged to the forces of Lingfengtang, and he didn't want to scare the snakes and kill innocent people indiscriminately, so let's save this fake Ari's life for now.

While the fake A Rui was tidying up the carriage, Xuan Zifeng lifted the black veil on the bamboo hat and looked back in the direction of Baoyu City.

Under the black veil is a face as gentle as jade.The eyes are like meteors, the eyes are as clear as water, and the eyebrows are neat.There is still some pure youthfulness on the delicate face, which weakens the sense of alienation brought about by the beautiful appearance, just like a banished fairy just rightly dyed with a few wisps of warm human fireworks.

There was no trace of Baoyu City in the vast wilderness, nor could that person or that group of people be seen.

Xuan Zifeng sighed softly, hiding his face under the black veil again.

"Boss Xuan, I wish you a safe journey and a bright future; I wish you good health and return to your hometown."

"You too."

After finishing speaking, Xuan Zifeng turned around and handed the pass to the guards of Xuzhou City, and walked into the strange city in front of him.

As everyone knows, on the carriage, the fake A Rui shook his head with a chuckle, and took off his scarf and cap.

It is impressively snow-haired and red-eyed.

"Go, kiddo."
