after silence

It came from a stone room, and without the hindrance of my physical body, I walked into the stone room through the stone wall.

The person playing the piano turned his back to me, with long black hair hanging behind him, and his long body was wrapped in a black robe.The long and white fingers stirred the strings and made a melodious sound.

Walking into the man's side, looking at the hideous mask on his face, I couldn't help but bend the corners of my mouth.

Unexpectedly, this Yanyang Palace Master is quite versatile, not to mention good-looking, he is also good at acting, let alone he can play the piano so well.

There was a rumbling sound, and the door of the stone room was pushed open from the outside.I turned my head, and Chu Yan came in from outside holding a tray.Yan Yang held down the trembling strings and slowly turned around to look at Chu Yan.

Chu Yan put the tray on the stone table, and put the white jade medicine cup in the tray to Yanyang's hand.

"Palace Master, it's time to take medicine."

Yan Yang gave a cry of grace, covered his face with his wide sleeves, lifted the corner of the mask and poured the medicine into his mouth.

"Chu Yan, what's going on outside these few days, tell me about it."

Yan Yang put down the medicine cup, raised the back of his hand to wipe the corners of his mouth, the wide sleeves slid down his arms, his white jade-like skin couldn't help but dazzled.

For some reason, Yan Yang's voice was a little hoarse, his eyes were full of exhaustion, and the melancholy hidden in the depths made his whole person involuntarily vulnerable.

Is this man sick?

I looked at him and couldn't help smiling.

"Palace Master, the old Palace Master told you to rest in peace, and leave the outside affairs to him."

Hearing these words, Yan Yang held his chest and coughed for a while, Chu Yan next to him frowned at his fragile appearance.

"Palace Master, you should rest in peace and recuperate from your illness. Don't worry about external affairs anymore."

Yan Yang pressed the table and stood up slowly, the fragility in his eyes that looked sideways at Chu Yan no longer had the fragility just now, and the hostility emanating from his body forced Chu Yan to take a step back with a pale face.

"Hmph, Chu Yan, it turns out that the words of the palace are useless in front of you. Would you like to be the palace master instead?"

When Chu Yan heard Yan Yang say this, he knew that he was already angry, and fell to his knees with a plop, and looked up at Yan Yang with panic on his face.

"Palace Master, this subordinate doesn't mean that. Since you were injured that day, you haven't cultivated well. This subordinate wants to take advantage of the old Palace Master's return now, so that you can take a good rest, so that you can go to Dongfang Qi to take revenge To vent the hatred in my heart, my subordinates really have no other intentions."

Yan Yang looked at Chu Yan at his feet, and couldn't help squinting the long and narrow eyes under the mask.He reached out and grabbed Chu Yan's shoulder and pulled him up from the ground.

"Since there is no other meaning, then I can answer well when I ask you, if not, go outside to receive the punishment."

Chu Yan bowed his head and said yes, and then told Yan Yang about the situation outside.When he heard that the Great Xia Yan from the Seven Great Aristocratic Families had been killed, Yan Yang clenched his hands tightly, blood staining the table red.

"Chu Yan, how did that old thief die?"

"It was tortured to death by the old palace lord's Gu, and the head has been brought back by the old palace lord and placed in the mourning hall."

The old palace lord?It turned out that the person who played Gu was actually Yan Yang's master, Yan Yang's own martial arts are not weak, so this master should not be underestimated.According to Su Chen's level of skill, it is impossible to take away the things used to remove Gu Qi from his hands.And now that I don't have a physical body, it's really a bit difficult now.

"What's Dongfang Qi doing?"

Chu Yan, who was kneeling on the ground, raised his head and glanced at Yan Yang, his hands on his knees tightly grasped the hem of his clothes before he said in silence, "The night the old thief died, Dongfang Qi also went. , Dongfang Qi seems to have been poisoned, and now his life is in danger, and it will happen sooner or later..."

I stood by the side, watched Yan Yang's hands on the table tremble, felt his breath suffocating, then raised my head and laughed out loud.

"Okay, okay, okay, God open your eyes, Dongfang Qi, you didn't listen to my advice that day, you deserved to end up like this today."

Yan Yang said hello three times, I couldn't help but feel angry, if it wasn't the time to touch him, I wish I could slap him to death now.

Yan Yang is really the first person who dares to curse me to death!

Yan Yang's laughter fell, and he fell down on the stone bench and waved Chu Yan to back down.Chu Yan looked at Yan Yang's appearance, looked up at him worriedly, picked up the tray on the table and bowed back.

Yan Yang's fingers moved slightly and slowly stirred the strings, and the melodious sound of the piano gradually changed from ethereal and unrestrained to sad and deep.Looking at Yanyang's side face, listening to the sound of the zither next to my ear, my furious emotions gradually calmed down, and my clenched hands slowly loosened.

I turned around and walked out of the stone room, but at the moment I turned around, a drop of tear from the mask on Yanyang's face fell on the strings and turned into misty mist with the trembling strings...

Qingyun disrupts the situation

When they returned to the gate of Rakshasa Palace, Su Chen was surrounded by many people except Song Li and Chu Fei.The leader was a man wearing a black mask and a black robe, because his whole body was covered in it, and I couldn't tell his age from his appearance.It's just that the aura around him tells me that this person should be about the same age as Zhan Lingxian.

"who are you?"

This person has a hoarse voice. If I hadn't seen his lips opening and closing, I really thought that the place where this person made his voice was not his throat, because the voice was like a ghost crawling out of hell, and people could smell it. I couldn't help shaking my body.

Su Chen raised his head and observed the man in black carefully, before saying, "I'm here, Su Chen."

"Su Chen?"

The man repeated Su Chen's name in a suspicious voice, and walked out of the crowd with his hands behind his back.Seeing this, Song Li and Chu Fei, who were pointing their swords at Su Chen, hurriedly bowed and stepped aside.

Su Chen, who was stared at by the man in black, straightened his back involuntarily, his breathing gradually became rapid, and a little sweat leaked from his forehead.The whole person stood on the spot with his hands down stiffly, looking at the person in front of him with a pale face.

The man in black observed Su Chen, and I observed the man in black.I always felt that he was very similar to an old man I knew, but that man was a fairy and could not appear here. More importantly, that man was dead, and he died right in front of me.

"Which sect are you from? What are you doing in Rakshasa Palace?"

The man in black circled around Su Chen, and then stopped in front of him.

"Palace Master, Su Chen is from the Immortal Mansion. He just strayed into the Underground Palace for a while, and has no other purpose."

As soon as Chu Fei finished speaking, a crisp applause sounded in his ears. Chu Fei, who was not far from the man in black, covered his face and bowed to him, not daring to speak any more.

The man in black turned his head to look at Chu Fei who had a fearful expression on his face, and slowly pulled his neat sleeves and said casually, "Chu Fei, you have been by my side since childhood, I thought you would follow my rules. Remember."

The man in black cast a sideways glance at Chu Fei, his hoarse voice was low but full of oppression.For a moment, the bodies of all the people present couldn't help shaking, even Song Li and Chu Fei, who had relatively high cultivation bases, couldn't help taking a step back.

Chu Fei lifted up the hem of his clothes and hurriedly knelt down in front of the man in black. The man in black shook his sleeves coldly and turned his back.

"Missing your first offense, I won't go into it anymore, go and get the punishment yourself."

Chu Fei bowed his head and said yes, got up and looked up worriedly at Su Chen who was in front of the man in black, turned his head and walked into the Rakshasa Palace.

Looking back at the man in black again, I couldn't help but admire him even more.After slapping Chu Fei, his figure didn't move at all.Even standing closest to me, I didn't see clearly how he made the move.

"Immortal Mansion? Hehe, I heard that the young master of your Immortal Mansion is here this time. Zhan Lingxian, who is highly respected by Jianghu Baidao, actually favors him. It seems that Baidao is as dangerous as the rumors..."

The man in black shook his head in regret, but his words were full of ridicule.

"Senior's words are wrong. Although my young master is young, his cultivation and character are not inferior to your seniors."

Hearing Su Chen's words, the man in black froze for a moment, then raised his head and laughed for a moment.Hoarse laughter filled the entire Rakshasa Underground Palace, and the already dark underground palace now became even more terrifying.

"Okay, listen to your doll's evaluation of your young master, I must meet your young master in person some other day, but before that, you should live here for a while with peace of mind, and wait for everything to settle down." It's over, I will definitely go and see what kind of young master you call 'a high character'. Song Li, take him away!"

Song Li clasped his hands and said yes, and waved his hands to ask the two young men behind him to get Su Chen.Just when the hands of those two minions were about to touch Su Chen's shoulders, Su Chen moved his body, and a dagger was withdrawn from his sleeve and quickly pierced into their chests.Both of them fell to the ground softly without even humming.

The man in black with his hands behind his back couldn't help but look at Su Chen's figure, his eyes flashed, he raised his hand and flicked his fingers, only to hear Su Chen grunt, and the dagger fell to the ground with a clang, Su Chen covered his chest and took a step back , staring at the man in black with burning eyes.

"I hate people who are overestimated the most in my life. Since you are not capable enough, don't make unnecessary resistance. Your behavior will only arouse my resentment."

Su Chen put down his hand covering his chest, his eyes were firm.

"I'm not capable enough, but for the sake of the young master, even if Su Chen dies here, it's worth it. The white Taoist cultivation base is not high, but compared to you gangsters who only use those dirty methods, they are much better than you." too much."

Su Chen's words didn't arouse too much reaction from the man in black. He waved his hand, and Song Li tapped Su Chen's acupuncture points and pushed him into the Rakshasa Palace.

I stood beside the man in black, secretly assessing his cultivation.If this person is placed in the heavens, he is definitely a strong opponent, but only relying on the inside
