Fu Qiufeng didn't know how many times he was run over by Shangguan Ning's yin and yang weirdness along the way, he was usually too lazy to argue with Shangguan Ning, but the closer he got to Li Country, the more tense he was.

The sense of danger and keen premonition that has been cultivated for many years has almost never made a mistake. Fu Qiufeng sneered at Shangguan Ning's ignorance: "Oh, dare to ask the little prince who treats people sincerely and sincerely, is there a woodcutter in your house?"

Shangguan Ningxin said that you treat me as a fool, but before he could think of something to refute, Fu Qiufeng had already pushed him into the bushes, silently threateningly, and turned his back to hide behind the tree.

The male woodcutter came over with a sickle, about 30 years old, ordinary in appearance, dressed in coarse cloth and brown, with a small bundle of branches and wood on his back, no different from ordinary villagers.

Shangguan Ning held his breath as he watched the woodcutter slowly leave in front of him. He just wanted to proudly show off his vision and judgment to Fu Qiufeng, mocking Fu Qiufeng for being startled, but when he glanced away from the corner of his eye, he suddenly recalled that the woodcutter was carrying the The firewood seemed to be cut casually, and some of them were branches with green leaves. This kind of branches had a lot of water and could not be used as firewood immediately.

This woodcutter was indeed a disguised identity, and there was no need for Jianghu people to patrol the border in disguise, and there were no sects nearby, so they were probably officers and soldiers.Shangguan Ning quietly glanced at the place where Fu Qiufeng was hiding, his heart skipped a beat, he pretended to relax his vigilance, and inadvertently moved his foot and broke a branch.

This crisp click made the woodcutter, who had already gone away, turn his head in an instant, and grope behind him defensively. Fu Qiufeng took a deep breath and raised his head. At this moment, he wanted to give Shangguan Ning a relief once and for all.

"Brother, strong man, hero! Spare me!" Shangguan Ning stood up suddenly and begged for mercy three times with his hands raised, "We are passing by, and I will give you all the money!"

The woodcutter frowned, he only saw Shangguan Ning, but when Shangguan Ning said "we", there must be accomplices nearby.

"Come out! Tell me honestly who you are? Why did you sneak into Li Country?"

"I'm alone, I'm alone!" Shangguan Ning wanted to cover it up, his eyes slanted towards Fu Qiufeng crazily, "We are ordinary people passing by to collect herbs!"

Fu Qiufeng clenched the dagger in his hand, his knuckles turned white, his eyes showed murderous intent, Shangguan Ning suddenly felt a chill, and he immediately started to run away, as long as the woodcutter could hold Fu Qiufeng for a while... Shangguan Ning just appeared With this thought, a cool breeze suddenly blew up in front of him, messing up the fallen leaves all over the ground and flying in all directions.

Fu Qiufeng's figure was too quick to blink, and suddenly flashed out from behind the tree. The evening clouds and glow poured down from the finely fragmented sky with layers of branches and leaves. , across his throat.

"Tell me who you really are. If you dare to say a word of nonsense, you will die." Fu Qiufeng said gloomily behind the woodcutter, his eyes passed the woodcutter, and quietly fell on Shangguan Ning's face.

Shangguan Ning's footsteps froze, and he didn't dare to move. He slowly withdrew his strided leg and stood at attention obediently, for fear that Fu Qiufeng would throw a knife directly at him.

"I...I am the scout of the Teng Snake Army of Li Country." The woodcutter gently pinched the signal drawstring around his waist with his fingertips, "I can tell you anything, don't kill me, I will answer whatever you ask..."

Before he finished speaking, Fu Qiufeng suddenly drew the dagger.

Lines of blood slowly emerged on the scout's neck, followed by large drops of blood. The scout's signal could not be released in the end, and he fell to the ground clutching his neck in disbelief.

Shangguan Ning's own throat suddenly felt pain like hallucinations. It was the first time he saw Fu Qiufeng kill someone with a decisive and sophisticated technique. Even his eyes flickered for a moment. He was so calm and indifferent. It was a habitual criminal at first glance, as if he fell to the ground and puffed. It was a chicken that was bleeding like a fountain, and more importantly, Fu Qiufeng looked younger than him.

He couldn't help wiping his sweat secretly. Before that, he thought he was ruthless, murdered without batting an eye, and never showed mercy to the target. As he approached, he swallowed his saliva and backed away unconsciously.

"As expected, it is a magic weapon bestowed by His Majesty. It does not stain blood, which saves me the trouble of wiping the knife." Fu Qiufeng smiled and said, "My lord, remember what I said."

"My lord, spare me! I definitely didn't do it on purpose!" Shangguan Ning quickly said, "Your lord has a lot, forgive me this time, I will do my best to guide you to the capital."

Fu Qiufeng flicked his index finger, and the dagger nimbly twirled around between his fingers, and rushed towards Shangguan Ning coldly. Shangguan Ning raised his breath, closed his eyes and raised his hand to cover his eyes. did not come.

"...Master Fu, let's get out of here as soon as possible?" Shangguan Ning cautiously opened his eyes, and tentatively asked, "The Teng Snake is the emblem of the National Teacher. I have never heard of Teng Snake Army before. The sergeant under the control of the National Division, it seems that Li Country has completely fallen under the control of the National Division, we have to be more cautious when we are going to the capital."

Fu Qiufeng nodded: "You are right. The body will be found sooner or later. It is not suitable to stay here for a long time."

Shangguan Ning secretly breathed a sigh of relief, Fu Qiufeng slowly put down the dagger, and he also put down his defensive arm, and then there was a sharp pain in the little finger of his left hand.

"For the sake of your deep understanding of the Li Kingdom, I will spare your life this time." Fu Qiufeng put the dagger back into the sheath at his waist coolly, and turned around with a smile, "If you try to betray me again next time, I will kill you." Use this dagger to challenge Ling Chi for the most number of knives."

Shangguan Ning's face turned pale little by little. It was the first time he realized that a smile could make people feel so creepy. Fu Qiufeng turned around and walked away a few feet before he bent down and squeezed his little finger that had been shaved off with his cuff, and let out a cry of unbearable pain. call.

It was already late at night when we arrived at the village pointed by Shangguan Ning. Fu Qiufeng heard a few barking dogs from afar, echoing empty in the valley. Shangguan Ning didn't say a word all the way. Before entering the village, I saw soldiers patrolling with long guns in the night, and there was also a military flag embroidered with snakes hanging at the entrance of the village.

"Tsk." Fu Qiufeng glared at Shangguan Ning from behind the tree, and instructed in a low voice, "This is already the base camp of the Teng Snake Army."

"The commoners of the Li country here used to live in peace and prosperity, but now they are occupying the magpie's nest. If you don't want our supplies to go to waste, maybe you can try to sneak in and find some dry food and tea in the common people's homes." Shangguan Ning urged in a tired tone.

Fu Qiufeng almost laughed out loud: "Then you betrayed me outside? You really spared no effort."

"How dare you, forget it if you don't go, how dare I have such an idea." Shangguan Ning turned his head, "Then let's continue on our way? We can climb over this mountain tomorrow night, and we can buy dry food after reaching the small town at the foot of the mountain." .”

Fu Qiufeng licked his dry lips. The dry food he brought had already been eaten in the morning, and now there was only some water left in the kettle. In the territory of Li Kingdom, conflicts should be avoided as much as possible. He and Shangguan Ning quietly let go On a long journey, I plan to find a water source for a short rest.

After walking a few miles, Shangguan Ning was completely paralyzed. He leaned against a tree and doubted his life. You don’t have to live and die like today.”

"Heh, I heard from my subordinates that your lightness kung fu is excellent, and you can escape for a day and a night with a leg injury. Now it seems that it is nothing more than that. It is His Majesty's kindness that makes the Frost Blade Platform lazy." Fu Qiufeng said bluntly. Taunting him, he took out the water bottle and took a sip. Seeing Shangguan Ning staring at the water bottle, in order to prevent the guide from burying his bones halfway, he had to reluctantly hand the water bottle to him, "Drink less, or don't blame me for bleeding your blood."

Shangguan Ning took the kettle with a trembling hand, thinking that Fu Qiufeng might really be capable of drinking blood, he hesitated to bring the kettle to his mouth, and when he was about to drink, Fu Qiufeng grabbed his wrist again.

"Don't touch it." Fu Qiufeng warned him, "This pot was bestowed by His Majesty, how could it be defiled by you."

Shangguan Ning: "..."

Shangguan Ning looked at this ordinary kettle, and said in his heart: "Oh, Mr. Fu, I have been a nobleman anyway. I think this kettle is to give you daily necessities in the palace together with pots and pans. What an imperial gift, Dayi is vast and rich in resources, the emperor would not personally bestow such an ordinary water bottle."

"This is His Majesty's simplicity and closeness to the people." Fu Qiufeng said naturally.

The corners of Shangguan Ning's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help provoking Fu Qiufeng again: "Forget it, Mrs. Fu, what you said is so grand, but you were actually brainwashed by those women in the harem. I'm afraid you will be sorry for your majesty the emperor. Madam Fu, I and I If you use the same kettle, His Majesty the Emperor won’t be jealous if he knows it? If we are short of money and food and can only afford one horse, do you still have to let me run with your horse? I should have known better with other men You might as well just stay in the Frost Blade Terrace honestly and send out any manless subordinates to go out on missions."

"You can still speak eloquently. It seems that you don't need to drink water at all." Fu Qiufeng took the water bottle back from Shangguan Ning's hand calmly, put the lid on and hung it on his waist.

He also thought about it during the time he was away from the palace. If he can come back and become Rong Jin's male servant in name and name, those behind-the-scenes comments can no longer be classified as gossip and gossip. He can no longer use the fact that he is the master of Lanxin Pavilion in disguise to defend himself.

He is used to the abuse of being a "treacherous courtier", but can he really calmly accept that there will be more comments like "Israel is the master" in the future?Fu Qiufeng recalled that night when Rong Yan asked each other to calm down, and now that he had calmed down all the way to Li Country, he unexpectedly found that he was able to calm down under Shangguan Ning's irony.

"Save some energy and go on your way. You can only be wronged and chew these useless tongues in front of me. You are just a prisoner with a collar. I am the one holding the reins. I need to care about your incompetence?" Fu Qiufeng patted Patting Shangguan Ning on the shoulder, "See the facts clearly, little prince."

Shangguan Ning's plan to escape and mental attack all failed. He gritted his teeth and followed Fu Qiufeng. After walking for a while, his momentum gradually faded. He leaned on his knees and begged: "I'm wrong, Mr. Fu, Mr. Fu!" , give me a sip of water, I'm a royal family, and I'm still in Li Kingdom, you give me a sip of water, and when I get back to the capital, I'll give you ten water jugs worth of gold in return."

"No, I'm afraid Your Majesty will be jealous." Fu Qiufeng said with a chuckle, "I'm His Majesty's man. There is no gold, silver and jewels in the treasury. The people waiting to bribe me are afraid of breaking their heads in line. I don't care about your teeth. It’s better to wear a pair of golden handcuffs for yourself.”

"...You're really proud." Shangguan Ning had already reached the point where he could quench his thirst with jealousy, and he sighed dejectedly, "Speaking of which, what is your purpose in going to the capital?"

"I'm not afraid that you will know that I'm going to the National Teacher's Mansion." Fu Qiufeng said, "According to the information, the pills refined by the National Teacher are stored in Jietianlou in the mansion."

"To be precise, it is the pagoda of receiving the sky." Shangguan Ning reminded, "I went to the National Teacher's Mansion once to attend a banquet. The magic elixir that can cure all diseases has been refined, and it is hidden in it, and no one dares to sneak in and steal it."

"No one dares, or no one believes." Fu Qiufeng glanced at him.

Shangguan Ning sneered: "Anyway, I don't believe it, but he is good at refining poisons. I have dabbled a little bit in this area, and I am familiar with the nobles and the national teachers of the Li Kingdom. Otherwise, why would Gong Ziyu hire me? If you want to target the national teachers, It would definitely be wise to ask me to help."

Fu Qiufeng stopped and looked at him for a moment, then threw the water bottle: "Do you have a way to sneak into the National Teacher's Mansion?"
