When Ji Chaoyun woke up again, he had returned to the bedroom, and when he tilted his head, he saw the figure sitting at the table.
Seeing that he was awake, Feng Qi immediately walked to the bedside: "How do you feel, is there any discomfort?"
"No." Ji Chaoyun shook his head, with a hint of confusion in his eyes, "It's just... I seem to have had a dream."
He dreamed that Feng Xiao was back, and told him that he would never be left behind.
He hadn't had a dream like this in years, let alone a dream so real. Ji Chaoyun subconsciously raised his hand and touched his forehead, as if there was still the feeling of being kissed by that person.
Feng Qi's expression was uncomfortable for a moment, and he changed the topic and said, "You used up too much spiritual energy in the illusion, so you fainted, and it's fine now."
"Yeah." Ji Chaoyun didn't feel any discomfort, he nodded and asked again, "Over there with the fluctuating light..."
"I will make him pay the price." Feng Qi said lightly.
Ji Chaoyun was stunned, and saw a flash of killing intent in Feng Qi's eyes. This man has always had a laid-back look, and has never shown such obvious likes and dislikes to anyone or anything.
Ji Chaoyun paused and asked in a low voice, "...what's the matter with you?"
"It's nothing." Feng Qi looked away, "Since his identity as the man in black has been confirmed, we have no reason to allow him to do anything wrong."
"But... what are you going to do?" Ji Chaoyun worriedly said, "What I saw and heard in the illusion can't be used as evidence, and the illusion has been broken. Even if I enter again, I'm not sure I can go back to that forest."
Feng Qi: "If there is no evidence, let him take the initiative to reveal the secret."
Ji Chaoyun thought for a moment, then suddenly said: "I have a way. Immortal Venerable Yaoguang came to me again a few days ago, I hope I can enter the Inspector's Hall, we can..."
"Impossible." Feng Qi interrupted without thinking, "I won't put you in danger again."
"But until now, what other way can I catch him?" Ji Chaoyun said, "Also, I always feel that this matter is still strange. Immortal Yaoguang has never revealed any demonic breath in the past, if he is really a demon People, how could they not notice that Tianshu Xianzun? Moreover, we have also explored his portable sword, and it is indeed not the one we saw in the illusion."
"... Is that person in the secret realm really fluctuating?"
Feng Qi was silent for a moment and asked, "What are you going to do?"
Ji Chaoyun was led into the Inspector's Hall by a disciple, and His Highness was now empty.
The disciple said to Ji Chaoyun: "Xianzun has been retreating for the past few days, and he should be still in the bedroom at this moment, so you can just wait here."
The disciple who led the way was named Li Hao, and he was handsome and upright. The Inspector Hall did not have a chief, and when Immortal Venerable Yaoguang was away, most of the affairs in the hall were temporarily handled by a few stewards.
"Many thanks, Senior Brother Li." Ji Chaoyun bowed to him and asked, "Xianzun Yaoguang... have you been in retreat these days?"
"Isn't that true?" Li Hao said, "I don't know what's wrong. Immortal Venerable has been retreating more and more frequently recently. I haven't seen him for several days."
"I see… "
"Wait here, I still have something to do, so I won't accompany you."
"Congratulations to send brother."
After Li Hao finished speaking, he turned and left, leaving Ji Chaoyun alone in the hall.
He watched Li Hao's back disappear from sight, and then unfolded his sleeves. A little golden phoenix flew out of his sleeves.
Phoenix shook his feathers and landed on Ji Chaoyun's arm, uttering a human voice: "That guy was fine a few days ago, why did he suddenly retreat?"
"I don't know." Ji Chaoyun subconsciously touched the feathers on Fenghuang's back and asked, "How, have you noticed the magic breath?"
Feng Qi shook his feathers uncomfortably, revealing a jade pendant hanging between the feathers.
"No." Feng Qi said, "A Tao gave me this thing that can identify the demons within a hundred zhang, even if it is hidden by the practice method, it will be invisible. But we have entered the inspector's hall until now, and this thing has nothing to do with it. reaction."
Ji Chaoyun's finger touched the phoenix's tail feather, and the young bird's feathers were soft and warm, and the hand felt incredibly good. He played with it one by one, and said thoughtfully, "Could it be... that person really isn't fluctuating light?"
"..."
"What's wrong?"
"...It's fine." Feng Qi's tail feathers trembled, but didn't tell him that Phoenix's tail feathers were the same as dragon horns, and they couldn't be touched casually.
Immortal Lord Yaoguang hasn't come for a long time. Ji Chaoyun has had enough of his tail feathers and rubbed Phoenix's head.
Feng Qi's voice was flat and a little hoarse, and he said vaguely, "Isn't that what a phoenix looks like, haven't you seen it before?"
"No." Ji Chaoyun said, "Feng Xiao has never changed back to its original form in front of me. Except for you and Tianshu Xianjun, I have never seen other phoenixes."
As the only phoenix Ji Chaoyun has seen in his life, Feng Qi is very easy to satisfy and proudly said, "My original form is definitely more powerful than that guy, and I will have the opportunity to change it to you someday."
"Okay, then..."
His voice paused, and he noticed that someone was approaching here.
Feng Qi also noticed that someone was approaching, flapped his wings and drilled into Ji Chaoyun's sleeve, and hid it safely.
Ji Chaoyun put down his sleeves, and at the same time, the temple door was pushed open.
Immortal Yaoguang stepped in slowly.
Ji Chaoyun bowed to Yaoguang: "I have seen Yaoguang Immortal Venerable."
Fluctlight was the same as before, but it looked a little haggard. He Chaoji Chaoyun smiled and asked, "It's Chaoyun, what's the matter?"
Ji Chaoyun said: "Xianzun mentioned to the disciple about entering the Inspector's Hall before. The disciple has already considered it. I would like to join the Inspector's Hall and serve the Xianzun."
There was a hint of confusion in Yaoguang's eyes: "Do you want to join the Inspector's Hall? The days of choosing deacon disciples are over."
Ji Chaoyun was startled and said, "But Immortal Venerable just came to me three days ago and said that if I think about it properly, I can come to the Inspector's Hall to see you at any time."
"Yes... I told you?" Yaoguang looked hesitant. He habitually stroked the sword on his waist, but felt empty. Fluulight was in a trance for a moment, and smiled covertly, "It seems that I really said it... I don't know why these days, my memory is extremely poor, and I forgot what I said."
Ji Chaoyun frowned imperceptibly and did not answer.
"If that's the case, then you can stay." Yaoguang thought for a moment and said, "It just so happens that there is still a shortage of manpower in the dossier management department in the hall. You will go there to help in the past few days, and I will have someone arrange it for you."
Ji Chaoyun paused for a while, then replied in a low voice, "Yes, Immortal Venerable."
Yaoguang called Li Hao, briefly explained Ji Chaoyun's arrangements, and hurriedly left the main hall.
His attitude Ji Chaoyun had never expected, and what was even more strange was that in the remaining days, Ji Chaoyun never saw Fluctuation again.
In the fantasy world, they had already determined that the man in black was Fluctuating Light. If his goal was the phoenix golden feather, he would definitely attack Ji Chaoyun in the near future. Ji Chaoyun and Feng Qi originally planned to use themselves as bait to lure Yaoguang to attack him, and the two of them would capture him again.
Therefore, after that day, except for the morning and afternoon classes, Ji Chaoyun stayed in the Inspector's Hall in his spare time, but after several days passed, Yaoguang still did not do anything to him.
On this day, the curfew was approaching, and the crowd on the main peak of Hongmeng Academy gradually dispersed.
Ji Chaoyun was walking on the mountain road with the lantern, Feng Qi followed him a few steps away, and yawned sleepily: "You have been patrolling the night for two days, so don't go today. Yaoguang hasn't treated you for so many days. Let’s do it, it is estimated that it will not come today.”
Ji Chaoyun smiled: "There is no reason not to do the assigned tasks, does His Highness Feng Er think everyone is you?"
Feng Qi made a "tsk" and said stubbornly: "I'm not unable to endure it, I'm afraid that you won't be able to endure it. In half a month, the next quarterly test will be, you tell them, don't arrange rotation for you. Anyway, That guy can't run either, the exam is important."
"I see."
They turned around the mountain road, and several disciples of the night patrol of the Inspector's Hall were waiting there.
Someone dissatisfied: "Why so slow, let everyone wait for you?"
Ji Chaoyun paused, and before he could say anything, Feng Qi said, "He's waiting for me."
The expressions of several disciples changed, and only then did they see Feng Qi coming out of the darkness: "Why, the time is right, can't wait for this moment?"
These people are all new disciples who have just passed the assessment and entered the Inspector's Hall.
When they saw Feng Qi, these people were completely cowardly, and did not dare to speak out.
After a while in the open space, a voice sounded behind them: "Are you all here?"
Everyone turned back, and Li Hao was walking towards them with a lantern.
The crowd dispersed, and Li Hao saw Feng Qi standing beside Ji Chaoyun: "His Royal Highness Feng Er? What are you doing here?"
"It's nothing, my junior brother is afraid of the dark, I'll walk with him for a while." Feng Qi said without changing his face.
Li Hao: "…"
Ji Chaoyun, who was forced to be afraid of the dark: "..."
Ignoring the strange expressions of those few people, Feng Qi took out a cloak from the storage ring and put it on Ji Chaoyun's back: "After the inspection, hurry back and don't catch a cold. If you have anything, please send me a message at any time, so don't be bullied. ."
Ji Chaoyun: "... I'm fine, go back quickly."
Feng Qi pinched his face and said with a smile, "Okay, only you dare to chase me, I'll just leave."
He finally glanced at the other disciples threateningly, turned his head and walked towards the teleportation formation of Disciple Peak. It wasn't until he was far away that Li Hao cleared his throat and pulled everyone back from their astonishment: "It's time for the night patrol. According to the divided area, two people will go together. Let's go."
"Yes, brother."
Ji Chaoyun joined later and did not group in advance, so he could only team up with Li Hao.
The two were in charge of the classroom building and the surrounding area of the second class of Xuanhuang. There were no lights at night near the classroom, and they only had two dim yellow lanterns for lighting, which looked very strange in the pine forest.
After getting along for the past few days, Ji Chaoyun has discovered that Li Hao is actually very talkative, and his heart of gossip is even more than Ye Chenxing. Less than halfway through the two of them, he could no longer be idle, and kept pulling Ji Chaoyun to chat.
At the beginning, this person was one of Yaolight's confidants. He had been in contact with Yaoguang a lot in the past, and Ji Chaoyun was happy to inquire about him.
"You ask why Immortal Yaoguang always goes out? In fact, I don't know too much about it." Li Hao walked in front of Ji Chaoyun with a lantern and said, " Immortal Yaoguang has never been like this before, it should be half a year ago, Immortal Venerable Tianshu sent him I went out once, and since then I have left the academy from time to time. Maybe it was also instructed by Immortal Venerable Tianshu?"
"Tianshu Xianzun... Why let him go out?"
"No one knows about this." Li Hao said, "The Immortal Venerables of Hongmeng Academy have extraordinary positions in the entire Immortal Territory. They not only have to take care of the academy's affairs, but also the safety of the entire Immortal Territory. What are they going to do, we disciples How can it be clear?"
Ji Chaoyun was silent for a moment, and then asked, "What's wrong with Immortal Lord Yaoguang recently?"
"Something different?" Li Hao frowned and suddenly remembered something, "It sounds the same."
"What's different?"
Li Hao looked left and right, and said in a low voice, "Xianzun Yaoguang won't let me talk about it, so don't talk about it. About two or three months ago, on the day he first returned to the academy, I happened to have something to ask for instructions at He, went into his bedroom and found... he seemed to be injured."
"Injuried?"
"Yeah, I wanted to find a medical immortal for him at the time, but Immortal Yaoguang wouldn't let him. He said that a minor injury will heal itself in a few days of retreat." Li Hao shook his head and sighed, "Thinking about it now, this should be him. The reason why I have been retreating from time to time recently. Alas, it would have been better if I just asked the Immortal Doctor to take a look, the Immortal Venerable is really…”
Ji Chaoyun closed his eyes and said nothing, as if he was thinking about something.
After the two of them inspected the Xuanzi class classroom, they walked through the pine forest path to the yellow character class.
Li Hao didn't pay attention to Ji Chaoyun's strangeness, and said again: "Don't talk about Yaoguang Xianzun, let's talk about you. I know that there are a few people in the Inspector's Hall who have always disliked you, and I said them in private, don't take it to heart. "
"… no problem."
"However, with Fengqi standing up for you, no one should dare to do anything to you." Li Hao asked curiously, "Speaking of which, you and that flower peacock... cough, what is the relationship between you and His Highness Second Feng, I have been in school for more than ten years. I've never seen him take anyone to heart."
Ji Chaoyun whispered, "Just a friend."
"Friend?" Li Hao didn't believe it and smiled, "I'm afraid it's not as simple as being a friend, right?"
Ji Chaoyun looked back at him and said in a low voice, "What does Senior Brother Li want to say?"
Li Hao was stared at him coldly, inexplicably a little guilty, and hurriedly said: "Don't get me wrong, I have no ill intentions. It's just that the academy has been spreading your story recently, so I'm just curious."
"How did it spread?"
"It's said that you and him actually had an affair."
Ji Chaoyun took a step.
"That's not what I said." Li Hao said, "I didn't believe it originally, but he has been accompanying you to protect you these few days, like a baby. Is this an attitude toward ordinary friends? I have to believe it."
Ji Chaoyun lowered his head and unconsciously clenched the lantern in his hands: "He... He has a reason for that."
"Even if there is a reason, the way he looks at you can't deceive people." Li Hao was quite confident in his inference, and said, "Although I haven't had anyone I care about yet, all these years have not been in vain. , I've seen a lot. Junior Brother Ji, don't lie to me, have you already... "
Before he finished speaking, a dark shadow suddenly flashed across the depths of the path in front of the two of them.
The expressions of the two of them were condensed, and Li Hao reacted more quickly, and quickly ran after him: "Stop! What level are you, and you dare to stay in the classroom under curfew?!"
Ji Chaoyun was about to keep up, when the jade pendant on his chest suddenly trembled violently.
Magic breath.
He suddenly realized something and called out loudly, "Senior Brother Li, come back—"
But it's too late.
The cold moonlight sprinkled on the pine forest path, setting off the opponent's sword edge with a particularly icy coldness.
Ji Chaoyun's voice was choked in his throat, and he didn't even have time to react. He only saw the sword blade penetrate Li Hao's chest, and a harsh muffled sound came from the forest.
The lantern fell to the ground, reflecting the horror on Li Hao's face.
He tried his best to turn back and hissed towards Ji Chaoyun: "Quick, run away!"
But the person holding the sword didn't care, he pulled out the matching sword mercilessly, stepped over the warm body that fell to the ground in front of him, and walked towards Ji Chaoyun.
Ji Chaoyun clenched the trembling jade pendant in his arms, raised his head, and faced the pure white mask hidden under the hood.
The author has something to say:
Li Hao: What is your relationship
Ji Chaoyun: My friend.
Feng Qi: I slept.
Li Hao: ? ?
