The wind

What the two of them smelled was the smell of gunpowder.

And what Li Zhongnan fished out from the water was the gunpowder shell, Xiao Zhouheng vaguely remembered that it was called Fire Tribulus*.But the one in Li Zhongnan's hand is simpler, and the built-in ball is not made of iron.This time, because it was soaked in water, it was somewhat out of shape.

But the two tacitly didn't mention how they knew it was gunpowder, but they both knew that it was not a coincidence or an earthquake, it was an obvious and deliberate deliberate attempt to blow up the mountain.

One guess after another exploded in Xiao Zhouheng's mind instantly, and one fragment after another popped up——

The reason why Xiao Zhouheng was able to know was purely because he had been to the Military Weapons Supervision in the capital city and had seen craftsmen and soldiers making those objects.However, it is a felony to sell gunpowder among the people and hide such things privately.

So the first question at this moment is, who planted this fire thorn, which is very amateurishly assembled?Why should it be buried?From Xiao Zhouheng's point of view, Li Yunhong, Zhu Liyou, Tan Zhao and Miaomiao are all extremely suspicious at present.

But Xiao Zhouheng didn't have any real evidence at this moment, so he could only ask: "How do you know that that thing is in the water?"

While talking, the two walked to an unspoiled porch to shelter from the rain. Li Zhongnan put the caltrop shells on the ground, took the clothes in Xiao Zhouheng's arms, and planned to use one of them to dry first. Body: "The deeper the burial, the farther the bomb will be thrown. I just gamble that I will be in the water. Although the perpetrator has a plan, it is not exhaustive."

Xiao Zhouheng naturally agreed, if it is really investigated, it is not that he has no clue, but, can the two of them get involved in this matter?

Just when the two were startled by this discovery, there was a sudden cold wind blowing over there, and a group of black shadows rushing towards this side appeared in front of their eyes.

The black clouds were like black ink, and the murderous aura was approaching between thunderbolts. Li Zhongnan subconsciously pulled Xiao Zhouheng behind him, picked up a broken branch on the ground, and tried to block the man's head-on killing move.But after all, it was hard to block the blow, and the broken branch burst in an instant, turning into a flurry of powder.Although the two managed to dodge, the man let out a breath when the cold light suddenly appeared, and the blow went straight to Xiao Zhouheng's face, cutting his face and cutting off a strand of his temple. Hair, and shattered the carved window behind him.

The black shadow seemed to be coming towards Xiao Zhouheng, not to tangle with Li Zhongnan, that person probably didn't expect Li Zhongnan to intervene at the moment, his stature froze, leaving the two of them a moment to breathe Opportunity.

Li Zhongnan was distracted by that person for a moment, and pushed Xiao Zhouheng violently: "Shu Ting! Take the sword!"

Xiao Zhouheng was stunned, his blood was rushing, he staggered, he didn't care about the faint pain in his ears, he didn't dare to stop, and ran to Li Zhongnan's room at a loose pace.

Li Zhongnan half retreated and half defended, not letting the man take half a step beyond Lei Chi.Only then did Li Zhongnan realize that the man was holding a brightly painted Zhe wooden horse lance. Even though the horse was missing, the long lance still danced vigorously.

The man was wearing a felt hat with the brim pressed very low, and a scarf was tied around his neck.

Li Zhongnan was inexplicably familiar with this person's moves and aura, and a face from a long time ago quickly appeared in his mind.

Li Zhongnan was a little overwhelmed with a false move and a real move.The man's tricks were ruthless, and after false and real trials, he seemed to have figured out Li Zhongnan's way - at a glance, he could see Li Zhongnan's somewhat awkward wrists and the weakness of his waist and eyes.

Here Xiao Zhouheng ran to Li Zhongnan's room out of breath, saw the sword box at a glance, and hurriedly took out the sword.

"Go on!" Xiao Zhouheng yelled, raised his hand violently, and threw the Xunmei Sword towards Li Zhongnan's back.

Hearing Xiao Zhouheng's voice, Li Zhongnan didn't turn around, but leaned slightly sideways, and stepped aside again.With one hand he was still holding the branch he had found from nowhere, and with the other he reached behind his back to grab it, and the Xunmei Sword was firmly held in his hand. Li Zhongnan tilted his wrist slightly, and the Xunmei Sword came out of its sheath in response As soon as he swung it out, the green glow skyrocketed instantly.

The whole movement is done in one go, without any stagnation.

When the swords collide, only the sound of gold and iron can be heard, as if sparks are splashed.

Although it was very inappropriate, Xiao Zhouheng still gasped for breath and sighed that Li Zhongnan's figure was extraordinary.Xu Shen only felt that his cheeks were a little wet, and Xiao Zhouheng raised his hand to wipe it, only to find that it was the blood that was blown out by that person just now.

Li Zhongnan, who got the Xunmei Sword, quickly suppressed the man with incredible strength, although he gradually gained the upper hand, but Li Zhongnan knew that he was indifferent, so he wanted to end this situation as soon as possible.After dozens of times you came and went, Li Zhongnan covered his voice and said: "Senior Huo, this is Amon, the disciple of Jiangshan Jade Physician Li Xiantsuki, there is some misunderstanding in this, I hope senior will stop to avoid accidental injury."

Huo Qichi saw Li Zhongnan's mouth opening and closing, and his attitude was quite respectful. He was obviously a bit of a level, but he showed a full gesture of retreat—however, the mark on Huo Qichi's neck was so itchy that Li Yunjing printed it, so he couldn't hear it clearly. From what Li Zhongnan said, he felt that he was declaring his family name, so he let out a crackling laugh: "What did you say your name is? Make it louder, I can't hear you clearly!"

But the phrase "I am Amon" Li Zhongnan couldn't say it for a long time.

Huo Qichi didn't do what he wanted, and only wanted to break through Li Zhongnan's annoying hurdle. In an instant, the offensive became more fierce, making it difficult for Li Zhongnan, who had no intention of fighting, to continue for a while. He was worried about Xiao Zhouheng's safety, and only hoped that he would be behind Hidden in the house, this room has no choice but to face it seriously——

"Senior Huo, please."

Just as Li Zhongnan finished speaking, Huo Qichi in front of him swayed and fell forward suddenly.

Li Zhongnan was taken aback for a moment, he didn't know why this hero Huo was acting like this all of a sudden, he thought he was using some kind of trick, but he felt that he didn't bother to use it, so he quickly approached him to have a look.

Xiao Zhouheng went to the place where Huo Qichi fell first, and suddenly found a thin needle stuck behind his ear, so he quietly hid it in his sleeve, pretending to be safe.

"What's this on his neck?" Xiao Zhouheng pulled his scarf again, but saw a black and red mark on Huo Qichi's neck, which seemed to have scratches from a knife. It seemed like a totem, but also like a mark.

Li Zhongnan slightly calmed down the somewhat disordered breathing, stepped forward to observe, probed his nose, and found that Huo Daxia passed out because of his internal breath disorder, pulse channels clashing, his body could not bear the huge pressure, and just passed out like this.Looking at the so-called mark again, Li Zhongnan said thoughtfully: "He belongs to the fourteenth brother."

"what?"

"The two characters around the neck are Chuan Jun, and the fourteenth brother Li Yunjing, the word Chuan Jun." Li Zhongnan frowned, "People call Xiong Yuliang Cai Li Chuan Jun."

"I don't recognize the Fourteenth Young Master." Xiao Zhouheng raised his head slightly, his words and expressions were full of confusion, "Why did he want to take my life?"

Li Zhongnan didn't answer this question, and Xiao Zhouheng didn't expect him to answer.

Feeling helpless and helpless again, Xiao Zhouheng couldn't help muttering: "In this whole world, who else can trust me?"

Li Zhongnan quickly responded: "Shu Ting, you trust me, I can trust you."

"Well, of course I believe you."

Because the place where Li Xiao and Li lived was a bit remote, and everyone was busy elsewhere, no one seemed to notice the abnormality here, whether they didn't want to notice it, or really had no time to take care of it, it was difficult for Xiao Zhouheng to tell for a while.

The two dragged Huo Qichi, who had suddenly fainted, back into the room, during which Li Zhongnan told Xiao Zhouheng his identity.

Li Zhongnan still couldn't figure out the matter of Huo Qichi's fainting. Firstly, after all, he didn't have the true biography of the young master of forging swords, and that person taught him to please his master; , he can only display seven or eight of what he has learned in his whole life; coupled with his own understanding of Huo Qichi, he is quite prestigious in the martial arts, and he is by no means an ordinary person.So unless... unless... Li Zhongnan didn't think about it any further.

"It's better to change your clothes first, you will easily get sick when you are hot and cold." Xiao Zhouheng walked over with a towel in one hand and a new dress in the other.

Seeing Li Zhongnan smiling without saying a word, Xiao Zhouheng felt a little guilty: "What do you think of me like that?"

Li Zhongnan leaned forward a few inches, and when his soft lips brushed against Xiao Zhouheng's earlobe, a burst of indulgent laughter sounded in his ear at the same time: "Thank you, Shu Ting, for remembering me so much, and you go to sleep, I'll just watch him."

When Li Zhongnan withdrew, he had already taken the towel from Xiao Zhouheng's hand, his eyes were filled with the starlight that was hidden by the sky tonight, and his voice was still extremely gentle: "Shu Ting, go get me Come to your medicine box, your ear is hurt; go change your clothes, yours is also wet."

Without waiting for Xiao Zhouheng to say anything more, Li Zhongnan said again: "Shu Ting, luckily you are fine."

Suddenly, there seems to be a Midnight Qingge on the other end, but seeing mandarin ducks startling dreams, tall buildings and eternal nights, floating clouds and world affairs.

At the moment when he and Li Zhongnan looked at each other, Xiao Zhouheng felt that he was really finished.

He seemed to be painted with water, when he looked at himself, he turned into thousands of Li Taibai, willing to drown in it over and over again.

Xiao Zhouheng knew that Li Zhongnan was such a gentleman*, no matter how hard he was in the world, he would still smile, fight with those unknown one by one, then pat the dust on his body, put away his sword, and serve a pot of wine , Then talk to yourself about spring flowers and autumn moon.

Then he said, Shu Ting, fortunately you are fine.

This made Xiao Zhouheng feel ashamed for a moment. There are so many Qingluan singing and dancing, neon clothes and copper fairy, and the world of flowers in the world in his writing, but in the end, none of them can compare with Li Zhongnan in front of him.

Maybe I like him more than I imagined.

……

In fact, Han Tieyi noticed Li Xiao's abnormality. After all, he stayed where he was after the few people left, without moving an inch. However, his spirit had already flown away with Li Yunhong, and he couldn't take care of others. Bamboo, rocks and dirt, couldn't get into his eyes at all.

Han Tieyi was extremely annoyed, he had passed his thirties, and felt that these years, no matter whether he was a soldier on the battlefield or a beautiful woman by his side, in fact, after all these years, the so-called food lust was already his own. I saw it lightly, but I didn't expect that it turned out that this car just failed to meet the skeleton that made me obsessed.

He had no choice but to endure this calamity. With a low sigh, Han Tieyi reluctantly returned to the room with rain and despair, took off his coat, and climbed onto the bed.

The rain had stopped, and the moon peeked out from the clouds again, splashing the moonlight, illuminating the whole room brightly, and the scars winding and clinging on Han Tieyi's back were shocking.

Han Tieyi lay his pillow on the third watch of the rain and stayed up all night.

The author has something to say: Why are Li Zhongnan and Xiao Zhouheng so gentle, probably because the author is also a gentle person (mistake).
