"It's me." Zhao Ping admitted with a slight smile, "I've been here twice in total, but I still haven't found anything. I really have no choice, so I rashly tied Miss Xia."

"The two times you came, is it your own attention?" Interrupting Zhao Ping's words, Li Lizhi asked with a calm face.

Sunan's eyeballs wandered between the two of them. Judging from the situation, there seemed to be many stories.

"One time was me, and the other time was the third elder." Unreasonably and unexpectedly, Zhao Ping told everything truthfully, with a calm expression and slightly raised eye corners, showing that he was in a good mood. "Although the third elder has saved my life, I have helped him for five years, which is enough."

"Hehe, it's a pleasure for you to leave, but you left a lot of mess." Li Lizhi smiled at himself, and Zhao Ping smiled slightly, with a slightly sarcastic look in his eyes: "If you really leave a lot of mess, you will be the happiest." Isn't it you, the owner of the house?"

"Oh? Then shouldn't I thank you?" Li Lizhi said with a slightly raised tone of voice.

What's the meaning?Sunan's eyes rolled back and forth on the two of them, and he was very puzzled by what the two said.

"Okay, Boss Su, give me Hui Chunxiang." The conversation turned to Sunan.Sunan was vigilant, it would be easy for him to hand it over, but what if the other party didn't keep his promise?

It is already dark night, and there is a bright moon hanging in the sky. The moonlight is sprinkled on the river, and the sparkling light is very spectacular. If it is not for today's scene, the moon watching in the middle of the river will have a special flavor.

Sunan didn't want to hand over Hui Chunxiang so directly, and shrank his hands to his cuffs. This movement was caught by Zhao Ping, and with a flash of his figure, he saw him approaching him with an extremely strange pace.

Her movement was extremely fast, and she came to his side almost instantly.Sunan was shocked, what the hell is this? Although he could see the opponent's trajectory in his eyes, Zhao Ping's speed was too fast, even if he reacted, he couldn't avoid it.He saw with his own eyes that Zhao Ping's hand brushed lightly on his arm, followed by numbness, and the box in his hand fell into Zhao Ping's hand.

Sunan could see the opponent's movements but couldn't stop him, let alone Li Lizhi next to him, he couldn't even react.With a little surprise in his eyes, he looked at Zhao Ping.

His martial arts seemed to be higher than what he knew, his eyes gradually darkened, and Li Lizhi felt unwilling.

Just when Sunan didn't know what to do, a strong splash suddenly erupted on the surface of the river, which was particularly noticeable in the dark night. A drenched figure jumped onto the side of the boat. The boat couldn't bear the force and swayed unstable.A dazzling cold light shot out from the water and struck Zhao Ping.

Sunan was anxious, why did Lin Jun come out at this time, Xueyao was still missing, Lin Jun made a move now, is it too impatient.

Although Lin Jun was not with them, he had been hiding under the water, waiting for the opportunity, not to mention the hidden places on the river, where there were many skilled players ambush.With the appearance of Lin Jun, many people suddenly appeared on the bank of the river, boarded a boat, and approached the center of the river. At first count, there were about fifty or sixty people.

On the boat, Zhao Ping looked excited. Lin Jun stabbed him with a sword, cut his clothes, turned over and backed away, looking a little embarrassed.A pair of eyes projected a strong fighting intent, and he looked up to the sky with a long smile: "Hahahaha, good!" A pair of eagle eyes burst into a fierce glare: "I have heard that Wei Guogong is very skilled in martial arts, and now I look at it, and he really lives up to his reputation."

Lin Jun stood on the side of the boat, his body was tall and straight like a pine and cypress, his back was facing Sunan, and his face could not be seen clearly.In Zhao Ping's view, he only felt that Lin Jun exuded a mighty momentum, with a unique bloody ferocity, attacking him, full of fighting spirit.

But he still had more important things to do, so he didn't have time to waste here. When he looked sideways, for some reason on the river, more than a dozen boats quietly appeared on the river, gradually approaching them in a siege.

Zhao Ping wasn't nervous at all, he chuckled lightly, and said to them, "Why don't you ask, where is that Miss Xia?"

Lin Jun's face changed suddenly, Zhao Ping "haha", stomped his feet, and a dull sound of falling into the water came.Sunan's expression changed, it's not good, the voice came from the water, he rushed to the side of the boat and looked around.

Zhao Ping smiled smugly. After finishing all this, he flew into the water and left on the lake. "Goodbye, everyone." Sunan gritted his teeth, took off his clothes and threw it aside, and jumped into the water, the water splashed, and Sunan sank to the bottom of the water, and there was no more sound.

This is still the most ruthless, there was a strange "sizzling" sound in his ear, before he could react, there was a "boom", a burst of fire suddenly rose in the central room, and after the strong impact, the whole ship suddenly It exploded and fell apart in an instant.Li Lizhi was thrown into the water, and immediately choked up a few mouthfuls of water: "Help... help!! I... Gulu... I can't swim."

Li Lizhi really doesn't know how to swim. The river is so deep that he couldn't hold it for a while after falling into the water. Li Lizhi sank straight down with a painful expression on his face. In the river water, his mouth and nose were choked so that blisters popped out.The nasal cavity was flooded with water, and he was so painful that he was overwhelmed and kept struggling.

Naturally, it was impossible for Lin Jun to let Li Lizhi drown, so he quickly entered the water, lifted him up, and then emerged from the icy water, back and forth, unexpectedly losing the best chance to hunt down Zhao Ping.

This guy Zhao Ping is not only cunning, but also not weak in martial arts. The soldiers in ambush are not his opponents. He fell into the water with one blow, but the man went further and further away. The soldiers behind him wanted to chase, but they were powerless. lead him into darkness.Li Lizhi was brought up by Lin Jun, spit water non-stop, more tightly hugged Lin Jun's thigh and refused to let go, with a weak face, then said fearfully: "Thank you, thank you, General Xia, please don't let go. "

Said that the strength in the hand is still bigger.

The boat was blown to pieces. Lin Jun and Li Lizhi stood on a larger wooden plank. The two of them were too heavy to support.

Lin Jun is most anxious about Sunan, he is not like Zhao Ping, who is weird and outstanding in Qinggong, and cannot take Li Lizhi away easily, and Xueyao also has no trace, which makes people anxious.Several small boats that were close to each other approached, and they jumped from the plank to the boat.

Li Lizhi sat on the ground, trembling all over. He swore that he would never take a boat again in his life.

Suddenly, water sprayed from the surface of the river, and the heads of Sunan and Xia Xueyao popped out of the water. The two breathed the air exaggeratedly, looking like they were about to suffocate.Xia Xueyao was drenched all over, looked a little embarrassed, retched a few times, and was rescued by the people on the boat.

"Stop chasing, come back." Sunan waved weakly, lying on the deck of the boat too tired to speak.Xia Xueyao choked on a few sips of water, and after spitting it all out, her hair kept dripping, two strands of hair clinging to her face, her apricot eyes burning with rage, she cursed:

"You bastard...bad boy, can you tie up my aunt too? I..." Xia Xueyao followed up with a series of angry curses, and she didn't look like a kidnapped person in good spirits.

"How...how did you fall into the water?" Li Lizhi asked weakly from the side, puzzled in his heart. They had checked the boat before, and there was no one on the boat, so how did Zhao Ping appear? ?And bring Xia Xueyao on board?Why didn't they find out just now?

Sunan collapsed on the side of the boat, gave him a blank look, and explained: "Actually, Xueyao has been on the boat." Just now he suddenly jumped into the water, just because he heard a dull sound of entering the water from the river.Presumably there must be a hidden compartment on the boat, it should be at the bottom of the cabin, when Zhao Ping stomped his feet, he shook the hidden compartment open, and Xia Xueyao fell directly into the water from the hidden compartment.

After blowing up the boat, Li Lizhi can't swim, and Lin Jun will definitely save him. As for Sunan, he can only rescue Xia Xueyao.Just now when he went into the water, he found that Xia Xueyao was tightly bound, and a stone sank under her feet. If it was too late, she would have to sink straight to the bottom of the water.

Xia Xueyao was wearing a thin blanket, and after scolding, she acted like a baby to Lin Jun aggrievedly: "Brother Jun." The tone was drawn out, but Lin Jun didn't like this at all, and his face sank, saying: "It's all to blame for this. You, if you hadn't played petty temper and insisted on leaving Xia Mansion, how could you let the other party catch you?"

Xia Xueyao was not convinced: "It's not like you haven't missed that man's martial arts. If he wants to kidnap me, there's no way he can use it." She was a little unconvinced, and she felt aggrieved at the end. murderous family.

After she was knocked out that day, she woke up in a dilapidated house. The man looked easy to talk to just now, but he was ruthless.If he got impatient with being scolded by her, he would just stuff a piece of rotten cloth into his mouth, not to mention the stinky, disgusting one would almost vomit.

Not long after that, she was knocked out, and when she woke up, it was dark, her whole body was tightly bound, and the rag in her mouth was not lost.Then, for unknown reasons, after a shock, the wooden boards under him suddenly rotted, and he fell into the water. Not only did he choke on the water, but his feet were still very heavy, and he dragged himself into the water.

Fortunately, Sunan rescued her, otherwise she would have become a water ghost.

On the other hand, Sunan was so tired that he couldn't even lift a finger, raised his eyelids, looked at these old men and little girls, and said faintly: "Let's go back."

Lin Jun was in a daze: "Where are you going back?" He was more ashamed. He had clearly assured Sunan before that both things and people were indispensable. In the end, things were lost and no one was caught.His face turned dark, what is the identity of this person, and his martial arts are so high.Among other things, just stepping on the water on the last road is not something you can do with ordinary lightness kung fu.

"Let's go back, find an inn, and have a good rest." Sunan was so tired that he couldn't lift his hands up. Under the water, it took him a lot of effort to separate the rope from the stone, and then rescue Xueyao.

"Then can we go back to the capital?" Li Lizhi's eyes lit up. The experience of the past two days was a nightmare for him. Now he hopes to return to the capital as soon as possible, and let the third elder, who cares about him, go to the same side.

"Go back, what a fart!" Sunan was so angry that he cursed all the bad words.Rolling his eyes, he said to him: "Find a quiet place, we must find out the real location of the treasure before Zhao Ping."

Lin Jun was stunned: "Didn't Hui Chunxiang be snatched away?" How could he still find it.

"I took most of it away, but I still have some here." The boat sailed slowly on the river, and the cool breeze came, bringing a burst of water vapor and a hint of coolness.Fortunately, I was careful, otherwise, this time I would lose so much that I would not even have any pants left. Xia Xueyao listened all the way, and was a little puzzled: "What are you talking about? What treasure."

Lin Jun glanced at her helplessly, then exchanged glances with Sunan, and finally told the whole story helplessly. When Xueyao found out, she was stunned: "He really only wants that Chunxiang?" She was even more curious One thing: "Then Hui Chunxiang, there is really a secret?"

Beating her chest and stomping her feet, Xueyao regretted endlessly, it was a loss, it was a loss, and in this way, they lost a lot.Looking at Sunan guiltily, he said, "I'm sorry, brother Sunan, I..." Afterwards, the voice became softer, gradually approaching nothing, and he glanced at Sunan guiltily, feeling sorry for him.

The corner of Sunan's mouth twitched, and he said in relief: "That thing is a piece of incense, not a treasure map." As for how to see through the secret of this thing, he shifted his gaze to Li Lizhi, gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Li, please come back to Chunxiang." is you."

When he handed over the things, he cut off some spices in one place. He had seen the originals, and there was no doubt that they were a piece of incense, and there was nothing else in it.Sunan vaguely felt that if there was a secret, it must be hidden in the spices.

The group of them went ashore, and they heard that the loss was heavy this time. Before Zhao Ping left, he injured many soldiers, which made Lin Jun worry about it all the time.

Randomly found an inn, several people had a bath and had dinner, but the subordinates suddenly reported that someone had found them, one old and one young, the youngest was called Su Yang, an old friend of Sunan.

Sunan was puzzled, why did Su Yang come here suddenly?Then they asked Su Yang and his party to come in, only to find that the old man was Su Yang's master Xie Hongyi, whom he had dealt with before.Seeing that Sunan was fine, Su Yang was obviously relieved: "Mr. Su, that's great, you're fine."

What's the matter with him?Sunan waved at him with a smile, in a happy mood, he did not expect to meet two people here.After calling the two to sit down and asking about their intentions, I realized that the master and the apprentice also came for this Zhao Ping matter.

"We've already met him face to face." Sunan and Lin Jun glanced at each other, passing helplessness, Xie Hongyi was shocked when he heard the words: "You have already fought him?"

Lin Jun's face turned ugly, there was a fight, although it was not a matter of winning or losing, but from the overall situation, he lost.

From Master Xie's tone, it seems that he knows Zhao Ping very well, and he is slightly resistant?Sunan asked curiously, "Do you know him?"

Xie Hongyi straightened his face, and said to the two seriously: "I didn't notice it until I saw the wound on the guard's chest, and I didn't think of one person."

"This Zhao Pingyuan's name is Zhao Licheng. At the age of 25, he became the chief guard of the former court. His martial arts skills are superb, and his one move is so unpredictable that he is very famous in the world at that time..."

"Wait..." Sunan hurriedly interrupted: "You just said the previous dynasty?"

"That's right." Xie Hongyi nodded, "I heard that Zhao Licheng disappeared after the Nanchao City was destroyed. He was occasionally heard of in Jianghu, and then disappeared. Over the past few decades, he has gradually been forgotten. "

Sunan looked at Li Lizhi with a strange expression. If it was true, then their family's crimes would be serious, and being in the company of rebellious officials and thieves was a taboo in the eyes of the current emperor.No matter how powerful your family is, how much power Yili has accumulated over the years, with such a hammer, half of it will fall if you don't die.

Looking at Li Lizhi's appearance, he didn't seem to be in a hurry, and asked calmly: "Master Xie, but if you calculate it like this, then Zhao Licheng is clearly over 60 years old, but why does he look like he is only about 40 or [-] years old?" ?”

Sunan didn't seem to care, "There are many people in this world who change their appearance and make up. Their gray hair can be dyed black. As for their faces, they are people who practice martial arts. Youth should not be difficult."

"That's what happened." Xie Hongyi took it for granted. Seeing that the two of them were intact, he seemed terrified: "Fortunately, you are safe and sound." He and Zhao Licheng should be in the same age, but Zhao Licheng had already been famous for a long time. The reputation is very wide, and now so many years have passed, it is really hard to draw a conclusion on which of the two martial arts is better.

After knowing that their Hui Chunxiang had been snatched away, Xie Hongyi sighed: "God, God." It seems that they were still a step too late.

"Why did you come back all of a sudden?" Sunan was curious. They had been working in other places before, and he knew how to come here at this juncture.Su Yang smiled wryly and explained to Sunan.

It turned out that Mr. Xie and Su Yang had been investigating a case of extermination in the south of the Yangtze River, and accidentally discovered that the case involved a secret meeting. The secret meeting not only had rich financial resources, but also had close ties with some court officials.Hearing people talk about the kidnapping of the lady of the Duke's Mansion, I wondered if there was any connection between the two, until I saw the scar on the guard's chest, so I couldn't be sure.

"Is this heart-destroying palm serious?" Sunan asked worriedly, and Xie Hongyi relieved: "It's nothing, I've seen the young man, and it happened to miss the center of the mouth. What's more, he was wearing armor at the time, so a Under the blow, although the wound looks scary, it is not a serious problem."

Sunan's expression relaxed a lot, but Xie Hongyi's expression was a little gloomy. Although he was fine, his things were taken away, and now he is nowhere to be found. Now the clue is broken again.

It's just that the people in Sunan have experienced a lot tonight, and they are already exhausted physically and mentally. No matter what happens, they can only rest for one night and talk about it tomorrow.

Until tomorrow, Mr. Xie couldn't rest assured, and left early to continue the pursuit. Before leaving, Su Yang was left here alone, and only said to meet in the capital.After a night of recuperation, the spirits of several people improved a lot, especially Sunan, who asked Li Lizhi to accompany him to a room earlier, and asked Lin Jun to buy a set of utensils for tasting incense and put them in the room.

"What are you doing?" Li Lizhi didn't understand, so Sunan sneered and said, "You don't really think I just give up so easily, do you?" Many times, if there is any secret, it would have been made public long ago."

"What's the secret in Chunxiang this time, don't you really know?" Sunan looked at Li Lizhi suspiciously, who looked impatient, as if he wasn't surprised at the secret in Chunxiang.

"I really don't know what's in Chunxiang this time." Li Lizhi repeatedly affirmed, but from Sunan's point of view, it seemed that his mouth was stiff, and he muttered a few words, but he didn't hear clearly. "However, I can give it a try."

Skillfully follow the steps of tasting incense, bury the spices in the incense ash and ignite slowly, this is just the simplest method.Lin Jun glanced at Sunan worriedly. He shook his head, indicating that he was fine. The two sat opposite each other, their eyes met, and there was peace in their eyes.

The aroma slowly dispersed, a puff of green smoke hovered faintly upwards, and a wonderful aroma slowly lingered in the room. The two who bear the brunt gradually closed their eyes to slowly feel the rare aroma.

Arguing about fragrance is not difficult for Sunan, after all, this is his specialty, blindly smelling the fragrance spreads and develops in his mind, wisps of hair strands flying in the air spread out, and every hair strand of green smoke It is an independent color that grows slowly.

A string of names quickly flashed through Sunan's mind. This time, the formula of Chunxiang is strange, and the fragrance is long-lasting, not dull, but rather distant. After a long time, Sunan can almost recognize all the spices.Suddenly, he frowned and his face became serious.

Lin Jun's heart was suddenly troubled. He thought that something had happened to Sunan, but saw that he opened his eyes quickly, with distressed brows, touched his chin, and fell into thought for a moment.Immediately afterwards, he quickly picked up the pen next to him, wrote and drew on the paper, and quickly listed the names of many spices.

But the matter was not over yet. What troubled Sunan the most was that there was a spice in the spring fragrance that he couldn't identify. It seemed to be a floral fragrance, but he had never seen it in his spice library.

There are not many such situations. It is very likely that Sunan has never been exposed to this kind of spice, so I don't know.However, this is also possible. After all, Zhou Dynasty and his era have been separated for a long time. In the long river of thousands of taels, no one knows what died out and what grew again.

But is this spice that he can't identify, the key to the secret?Thinking like this, he quietly stared at Li Lizhi who was opposite him, and could only look at him.

It didn't take much time for Li Lizhi to open his eyes with a complicated expression.Sunan asked tentatively, "How are you? What did you find?"

Li Lizhi turned his head to look at the unburned spices, and there were many emotions in his eyes, such as nostalgia, distress, and resentment mixed together, which Sunan couldn't understand.I swear in my heart, but is it just a taste, why is it so complicated?

"This fragrance..." His expression was a little weird, he said something, he was stunned, his face seemed a little embarrassed, he looked at Sunan's expectant eyes, curled his lips, a little unhappy, but still said: " This fragrance, I think I know what's going on."

Sunan's eyes lit up, but there was still one question he was a little confused about: "There is a spice in that fragrance, what is that?" He was fascinated by spices, and suddenly smelled a spice that he had never seen before. Must be a little curious.

"That fragrance is a kind of flower, and the name of the flower is Huihun." Li Lizhi's expression was gloomy, he didn't know how this flower touched his emotions, and the emotion revealed was a little sad.Sunan raised his eyebrows, is this the end?It's just that his mood is not right, so he didn't continue to ask.

"I know where it is." With his head buried, Li Lizhi suddenly said, this sentence startled the two people present, "Really?" Well, didn't the two of them taste the spices together?

It doesn't matter, since Li Lizhi already knows, they have to dig it out when no one finds it. No one can take advantage of the bastard Zhao Licheng.
