When Ouyang Nan and Sun Yongcai were about to fight, before Li Chengfeng could dissuade them, an old voice suddenly came from beside them: "We are both disciples of the Lingshan Sect. Aren't we afraid of the ridicule of the world after such a big fight?"
Everyone followed the sound and saw a thin old man with black eyes covered walking out of the crowd. He had a smile on his face and "looked around at everyone."
Li Chengfeng recognized him. He was Huangfusong's old butler and personal servant!
But, why did this old housekeeper become blind after not seeing him for a night
Su Yuehan, who was next to Li Chengfeng, also leaned next to Li Chengfeng and whispered: "Why is he blind? Could it be that... Huangfusong made him blind?"
Li Chengfeng whispered: "I don't know, but... it's definitely not a good thing."
Li Chengfeng whispered a few words, stepped forward and saluted the old housekeeper, and said, "Old housekeeper, this is just a small friction. We will be on our way soon. I wonder if the old housekeeper has any advice before leaving?"
The old housekeeper laughed and said: "I don't have any advice. You are all monks. Please take care of us servants along the way."
Li Chengfeng immediately grasped the key point in this sentence: "We?"
The old butler smiled slightly and said: "I know that releasing the top task at this time is really arousing suspicion. Therefore, I will personally accompany you along the way to calm the hearts of the monks of the Hidden Sword Pavilion. How about it?"
Li Chengfeng saw a gentle smile on the old housekeeper's face, but he always felt that there was something invisible hidden in the old man's eyes covered under the black cloth.
Ouyang Nan glared at Sun Yongcai fiercely, withdrew his long sword, came to Li Chengfeng, and whispered: "If this old guy is willing to follow all the way, the credibility of the mission will be much higher."
Li Chengfeng shook his head: "I think it's just the opposite. If something goes wrong, it will be a monster! In fact, this old housekeeper doesn't care what we think at all, because we really have no other choice. But he seems to be afraid that we will be afraid Just like he was retreating, in order to dispel our doubts, he took the initiative to participate! It’s so abnormal, how can there be no ghosts!”
Ouyang Nan stared at Sun Yongcai in the crowd, gritted his teeth and said, "I think this old guy wants us to kill each other with these traitorous scum from Hidden Sword Pavilion!"
Li Chengfeng nodded slowly and whispered: "It's possible!"
Tianjun also came up and whispered: "Are we still taking on this mission?"
Li Chengfeng asked: "Do we have a choice?"
Tianjun smiled bitterly: "Yes."
Li Chengfeng whispered: "We will act according to the opportunity on the road, and the soldiers will come to cover up the water and earth!"
On the other side, Sun Yongcai, Zuo Fei and other traitors from the Hidden Sword Pavilion also gathered together, whispering to each other in confusion: "Senior Brother Sun, what is going on?"
"The old bastard from Zangjin Pavilion has no good intentions. He is trying to burn bridges across the river!"
After Sun Yongcai and others betrayed the Cangjian Pavilion, they thought they could go to the Cangjian Pavilion and start over, but they didn't expect that all this was just the beginning of a nightmare.
Qian Shanxue was born as an earl, and Huangfusong was no less good, he was born as a viscount!
Duke and uncle, how many children in the world are born as fourth-class knights
How could a person like Huangfusong, who was born with a golden key in his mouth, look down on lowly people like them who defected from the Hidden Sword Pavilion
They originally thought that even if they could not become disciples of Zangjin Pavilion, they could still become registered disciples. Even if they were servants, that was not unacceptable.
But... After they entered the Hidden Brocade Pavilion, they were quickly dispersed and assigned to the various senior brothers in the Hidden Brocade Pavilion, and became slaves of slaves!
What does it mean
Sun Yongcai and the others knew that when they came to Cangjin Pavilion, they would most likely be working as dogs for the disciples of distinguished nobles like Qian Shanxue and Huangfu Song. But in their opinion, it was better to be dogs for these nobles than to be dead bodies in Cangjian Pavilion!
However, being a dog for a nobleman completely breaks their bottom line!
They are monks, monks who are superior to others!
First-class monks, second-class scribes, and third-class warriors!
They are the highest-ranking monks in the world. They do not kneel before the emperor, do not bow before officials, do not pay food, do not pay taxes, and are not even restricted by the laws of the world. How can such noble people be treated like dogs!
The simplest example is: Huangfusong's servant, the old housekeeper, can easily decide their life or death!
Let them go east, but they dare not go west. Let them go west, but they dare not go east!
Even the other servants dared to yell at them, and the maidservants looked at them with eyes that did not show the awe and admiration of the other monks, but hidden contempt.
How could monks like them endure such days
So Sun Yongcai and the others quickly gathered together in order to protect themselves.
But the more they united, the more they aroused the vigilance of other people in Zangjin Pavilion, and even began to doubt their original purpose of seeking refuge.
Just like the old housekeeper under Huangfusong, he was in charge of the inner courtyard, so he was naturally very wary of Sun Yongcai and others. Although this kind of vigilance was not visible in words, Sun Yongcai and others could feel it openly or covertly.
Seeing the eight Hidden Sword Pavilion disciples talking in a flurry of words around him, Sun Yongcai glared and whispered: "Shut up!"
Sun Yongcai's prestige in the Hidden Sword Pavilion is not low, second only to his senior brother and Qin Mieqin. Otherwise, he would not have climbed up and shouted, so many people left with him. With his low shout, the others immediately fell silent. They all looked at him eagerly.
Sun Yongcai whispered: "Please wake up, this old guy must have bad intentions! I also think he wants us to kill each other, and then use our hands to get rid of these guys in the Hidden Sword Pavilion, or use them to hands, clear us out!”
"This is simply unreasonable!"
These words almost caused the other disciples to explode, and some people started to make noises, but just as they were about to curse, Sun Yongcai shouted angrily in a low voice: "I said, shut up!!"
Everyone was silent again and looked at Sun Yongcai, all of them angry and dissatisfied.
Sun Yongcai sneered and said: "The old guy wants to reap the benefits, hum! Don't even think about it! Everyone, please be more restrained along the way and don't be fooled by this old guy!"
Zuo Fei looked at his former fellow disciples and sneered: "What if they take the initiative to provoke or attack?"
Sun Yongcai whispered: "This is unlikely. They should have taken this task now to prepare for the assessment and rating. Otherwise, even if they completed the task, they would not be able to receive the reward until they had completed the assessment and rating. Therefore, it must have been deprived by the senior brother. They were qualified to participate in the assessment and rating, so they made a desperate move to join the rankings, and then exchanged rewards for qualifications!"
Zuo Fei whispered: "But... why did the old housekeeper transfer us all to Shenjing? What does he want to do? Could it be... there is any evil intention?"
No matter how smart Sun Yongcai was, he never imagined that the old butler had such vicious thoughts. He whispered: "There are dozens of people from the Huangfu Mansion here, and he himself is here. If he attacks us, he won't be able to escape! This old guy , He won’t involve himself in it for us. He is quite afraid of death!”
Zuo Fei nodded and stared at Li Chengfeng and others. He cupped his hands towards Li Chengfeng and said, "Although we have different paths and do not seek each other's will, both sides will benefit from cooperation along the way, and both sides will lose from fighting." How about we stay together for the time being and consider peace as the most important thing?"
Li Chengfeng smiled slightly, saluted Zuo Fei, and said, "What senior brother said is exactly what junior brother thinks. Then we will make an agreement that along the way, we will not infringe upon each other!"
Zuo Fei immediately said: "A gentleman's words!"
Li Chengfeng also said: "Hurry up and whip your horse!"
The two raised their palms, high-fived and swore an oath, and smiled slightly. The tense atmosphere before suddenly dissipated a lot, but none of them knew... what kind of terrifying and terrifying waves were hidden in this short journey, and the blindfolded man The old butler in black cloth, the smile on his lips is so cold and cruel.
