The first floor of Tsing Yi.

Dugu Yihe looked at the figure sitting on the stone platform drinking leisurely, shook his head, "I didn't expect it was really you."

"There are always many things in this world that have not been thought of by people."

"I thought we had known each other for decades, and I knew you well, but I never thought..." Dugu Yihe's voice seemed to be a little older all of a sudden, "Has His Royal Highness been murdered by you?"

Huo Xiu was wearing white washed blue clothes, sitting cross-legged on the stone platform, with a copper wine jug by his hand, seeing Dugu Yihe and Lu Xiaofeng walking in, he didn't change anything.Hearing Dugu Yihe's words at this time, he smiled slightly and said, "Back then we went to the desert to look for him, but he avoided seeing him. Obviously he was unwilling to take over the task of restoring the country, so what qualifications do I have for this old man to say His Majesty."

"You don't want to return the treasure to the little prince, I can understand. But why do you want to attack the rest of us?"

Huo Xiu took a sip of the wine, and said with a leisurely smile, "That was originally the property of our Shangguan family. Is there anything wrong with taking it back?"

The two looked at each other for a long time, and Huo Xiu still smiled.Dugu Yihe shook his head, sighed, and put his right hand on the hilt of his sword, "It's useless to talk, let's do it."

"Do it? What hand?"

"Since the old man came to your door, you should know that this matter can no longer be resolved."

"Of course I know I can't be kind, but..." Huo Xiu suddenly smiled strangely, "I didn't say I would fight with you."

As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly pressed his hand on the edge of the stone platform, and a huge metal cage fell from the sky with a "clang" sound and covered him inside.Looking at Dugu Yihe and Lu Xiaofeng who looked shocked outside the cage, Huo Xiu showed a smug smile.

"The entrance to the small building has been sealed, and the underground of this stone platform is the only exit. Now only the old man can go out here, you, you can die here in peace!"

Huo Xiu's self-satisfied laughter echoed in the spacious cave, but after the laugh, the owner of this place found that the two people who had been trapped here by him did not show any panic.

"Why, do you still expect someone to rescue you?" Huo Xiu's expression became a bit more disdainful.

From the moment Lu Xiaofeng walked into this spacious artificially dug cave, he seemed to be amazed, and kept looking up with his head up.Hearing Huo Xiu's words at this time, he finally retracted his gaze from the top of the cave, and turned his gaze back to him.

"I've been thinking that when you saw me walking in with the head of Dugu, you should have expected that what you planned had been exposed. But you still remained calm, and the expression on your face didn't change at all."

"You are so calm, you must be relying on something. I have been guessing who is behind you..."

The man in Tsing Yi turned his eyes around the big metal cage, stretched out his hand and scratched his neck, Lu Xiaofeng said helplessly, "To be honest, I'm a little disappointed."

Huo Xiu's face suddenly darkened, "What do you mean by that?"

Lu Xiaofeng glanced at him, then suddenly asked, "What is the relationship between you and the steward Yan of Zhuguang Baoqi Pavilion?"

Huo Xiu's eyes flickered slightly, "What strict housekeeper?"

"You really don't know." Lu Xiaofeng sighed, his tone was actually quite disappointed.

Huo Xiu's complexion suddenly turned pale, "Lu Xiaofeng, what kind of mystery are you playing?"

The man in Tsing Yi shook his head but ignored him, and lazily moved his hands behind his back, "Come out."

The other two people in the cave were startled, Huo Xiu frowned slightly, his eyes were like lightning, and he quickly scanned around the cave.

There was no movement on the walls of the cave.

Only then did Huo Xiu show a satisfied smile, "Lu Xiaofeng..."

He didn't finish his sentence, because just after Lu Xiaofeng's voice fell, about five seconds later, a secret door on the cave wall suddenly opened.Warm orange light came in from behind the secret door, and a chubby man walked in with a candlestick in his hand, and said coldly, "I'll come out if you let me out?"

"Zhu... Pavilion?" Seeing the ordinary face of the person who walked in, Huo Xiu's smile faltered, and he stretched out his hand reflexively to press the button on the other side of the stone platform.However, the mechanism that would have opened the passageway when he pressed it didn't respond at all, and Huo Xiu's face suddenly turned as dark as the bottom of a pot.

Lu Xiaofeng looked at the person sitting in the cage vividly interpreting what is called a cocoon, and chuckled lightly, "So, there are indeed many things in this world that have not been thought of by people."

Dugu Yihe stared at the familiar yet extremely strange figure in the cage, and suddenly retracted the long sword that had been unsheathed.

"Master Dugu?"

"Decades have passed, and you don't even have the courage to fight me." Dugu Yihe shook his head, ignored the person whose face turned bluer because of his words, and turned around.

"Let's go."

Lu Xiaofeng glanced at the huge metal cage calmly, "The private affairs of head Dugu are settled."

"It's over." Dugu Yihe sighed, "He is no longer worthy for me to use a sword."

"In that case, let's go." Lu Xiaofeng raised his hand and stretched his waist, then turned around very simply, "After working for so long, I should go back and rest. Boss Zhu, let's go too."

Zhu Ting snorted coldly, and left behind him.

A few people talked and laughed and walked towards the secret door where Zhu Ting walked in. Huo Xiu, who was left behind, turned blue and then pale.

He lowered his head and stared at the motionless mechanism secretly, and pressed the start button more than a dozen times in an evil manner before finally giving up, and slapped the cage hard.

The light of the wall lamp hanging on the stone wall gradually dimmed. Huo Xiu sat in the darkness with a sullen face, thinking about the way to get out of here.The candle on the wall lamp was burning and made a slight sound of "Bipping". In the silent cave, Huo Xiu suddenly heard footsteps gradually approaching.When he raised his head and saw the face of the person coming, his expression suddenly became gloomy, and he lowered his head, "Why are you still here?"

In the dim light, the corners of Zhu Ting's chubby face moved slightly, evoking a slightly weird smile, "Of course I came to see you."

Huo Xiu raised his head suddenly, his expression changed completely, "Aren't you Zhu Ting? Who are you?!"

After Lu Xiaofeng and Dugu Yihe walked out of the first floor of Tsing Yi, it was already evening.The orange-red sunset is all over the sky, the setting sun is shining on the ground, and the weeds beside the path are covered with a warm golden layer.

The spring breeze of April was blowing head-on, Lu Xiaofeng stood in the wind and stretched, feeling a rare sense of relief.He glanced back at Dugu Yihe, and said with a smile, "Sect Leader Dugu's phrase 'I'm not worthy of using a sword' is really domineering and elegant, it should be understood!"

"It's just..." Lu Xiaofeng paused, and said with some doubts, "It doesn't feel like your style, Head Dugu..."

Dugu Yihe walked with him on the path down the mountain, and the long sword with a strange shape and a slightly wider blade was hanging on his waist. Hearing his words at this time, he smiled rarely and said, "Why? Only Ximen Chuuxue has the pride of being a swordsman, why don't you let the old man hold back?"

Lu Xiaofeng immediately laughed, "Master Dugu just joked."

"But what you said is correct." Dugu Yihe glanced at him, "That sentence was indeed said by Ximen Chuuxue."

"Forehead……"

Lu Xiaofeng smiled wryly and touched his nose, then his footsteps stopped suddenly.

"What?" Realizing that Lu Xiaofeng didn't follow, Dugu Yihe, who had already walked a few steps, looked back at him.

The man in Tsing Yi who was standing there frowned, "Master Dugu..."

In the middle of speaking, his voice suddenly stopped, and his and Dugu Yihe's eyes turned to the direction from which Xiaolu came.After a while, an old man carrying a load of firewood came along the path, saw Lu Xiaofeng and Dugu Yihe who were standing there looking at him, he stopped and was startled.

"It's really just an ordinary mountain dweller." Dugu Yihe watched the ordinary old man in coarse clothes pass by them, then continued to walk up the mountain tremblingly, "What other gains does Mr. Lu have?"

Looking back at the hunched figure that was gradually going away, Lu Xiaofeng moved his fingers by his side and looked away.

"No more, I just wanted to say that I will go back to Jiangshouju soon, head Dugu, do you want to go to see Boss Yan together?"

Jiang Shouju garden.

When Lu Xiaofeng walked up to Jiahe Tower, he saw Mingyueye sitting upstairs playing the piano alone.

The afterglow of the setting sun was falling from the sky, and the beauty in white sitting in front of the piano case lifted her wrist slightly, and the wide cuffs slid down her wrist, and the dark lines on the sleeves danced up and down rhythmically with her movements of playing the piano, flying out A silver streamer.

The rapid sound of the piano trembled in the air, and the white fingers flicked on the strings. The last note ended, and Ming Yueye finally let go.

"As soon as I came back, I heard you playing "House of Flying Daggers". I really had a bad feeling."

Mingyue Ye looked down at the Guqin and frowned, "It's still not as good as playing the pipa."

"There are so many famous Guqin songs, why do you have to make trouble with "House of Flying Daggers"?"

Ming Yueye finally raised her eyes and glanced at the man in Tsing Yi who had consciously leaned on the soft bed and touched the flagon on the table, "I played it for you."

Lu Xiaofeng silently withdrew his hand that was touching the flagon, turned his head and said quietly, "Mingyue, you are actually joking with me, right?"

Ming Yueye looked at his resentful look, lowered her head and covered her lips and let out a "puchi" laugh.

Lu Xiaofeng breathed a sigh of relief, and continued to pick up the jug and poured himself a glass of wine, "How many of them are there in Huamanlou?"

"Sixth brother and Mr. Ye are very interested in Jiang Shouju's freehand landscape, so I asked Qingming to take them to the garden."

"And you, why didn't you go with them?"

Ming Yueye looked at the man who was holding up the wine glass and talking while taking a sip of wine, and tilted his head, "I'll wait for you to come back to clarify your doubts."
