Jiang Fan has seen Zhai Wenhui go to the back mountain twice already.
In the past, he wouldn't have thought about it at all. Ever since his junior brother almost died and the inner ghost was found out among the outer disciples, he has paid more attention to everything.
Except for the disciples who patrol the mountain every day, few people go to the back mountain. Especially after what happened last time, the back mountain is almost becoming a forbidden area.
Jiang Fan didn't want to doubt his fellow disciples, but Zhai Wenhui not only went there twice, but every time he deliberately avoided other people.
What on earth is there to be so sneaky
What should we do now
Jiang Fan was a little hesitant.
Should I go to the senior brother to discuss it, or go to Zhai Wenhui directly and ask him why he did this
Jiang Fan couldn't make up his mind for a moment, seeing that the rain had stopped outside, and when he opened the door, he could see a blue-grey sky. The clouds broke, the sky was shining, and the wind was still cool on the face. After the rain stops, it will be hotter.
Jiang Fan decided to go see the elder brother first.
The elder brother's idea is definitely not wrong. It is much better to discuss it with the elder brother than to think wildly here alone.
Not only about Zhai Wenhui, but also about Master.
Master has been away for several months, and there are only two or three letters in total, Jiang Fan really misses it.
After walking two steps, Jiang Fan turned back again, rummaged through the room, found a bag of dried fruit and put it in his bosom, and then went to the elder brother's yard.
As soon as Jiang Fan entered the courtyard, Xiaodong poked his head out of the window, and shouted with a smile, "Senior Brother Jiang."
Although Jiang Fan was full of thoughts, he also smiled when he saw his smiling face.
"What are you doing in the house? Lazy again?"
Xiaodong frowned: "Who is lazy? I also practiced today."
Jiang Fan happily entered the room, took out the bag of dried fruit and handed it to his junior brother: "This is for you. Even though the fruit is small, it's quite sweet."
Xiaodong was also not polite to him, and said with a smile: "I haven't finished eating the dates I gave last time."
Since the younger brother moved here, Jiang Fan also came here from time to time, and the senior brothers often got together to talk, and every time he came back, he could find some changes in the room.
When Eldest Senior Brother lived alone, there were very few things in the house. Tables, chairs, beds, desks, other than that, there is only a set of tea sets, which shows how simple and poor his life is usually. Sometimes Jiang Fan thinks, Eldest brother is very talented and works so hard, who will become a talent if he doesn't become a talent
But since the junior brother moved here, I saw that the things in this house are increasing day by day. There are many pots today, and many potted flowers tomorrow, and the room is full without knowing it.
As soon as Jiang Fan entered the room, he noticed a stack of books on the desk.
Old books had a damp and musty smell in the rainy weather, Jiang Fan could smell it as soon as he entered the house, and it was impossible to ignore it.
"This is..." Jiang Fan thought it was some important scriptures and sword formulas, but when he looked down, he found that they were all miscellaneous books.
The elder brother will not be distracted by these miscellaneous books, so the younger brother is reading it
But can the senior brother let the junior fellows read these miscellaneous books? Isn't this not doing business properly and wasting time
Jiang Fan was confused, and after sitting down, he didn't bother to say anything else, pointing to those books and asked in bewilderment: "Senior brother, how did little brother read these books?"
He really can't figure it out.
Although the eldest brother treats people kindly, he never allows for ambiguity about such important matters as everyone's swordsmanship and cultivation. Even if he had a preference for the junior brother, he wouldn't let him do such nonsense, would he
Mo Chen only said: "This is what Ning Yu put down when he came over today."
This is quite ingenious.
Mo Chen can't reveal the secrets of junior brother at will, but he is also unwilling to tell lies to deceive junior brother Jiang.
When these words fell into Jiang Fan's ears, he immediately felt relieved.
"It turned out to be him. As I said, these things are what the people of Tianji Mountain are most concerned about. Where is there a ghost again, where is there a monster again, it sounds like the wind is the rain."
"Why are you here now? Is there something?"
Jiang Fan said: "It's nothing wrong..." Seeing Mo Chen's clear gaze, he changed his mind and said: "There is something wrong, let's go to the quiet room to talk?"
That's no small thing.
If it's an ordinary matter, why avoid Xiaodong
Xiaodong consciously picked up the books on the desk and gave them the space.
"I'm going to read a book, brother, you can talk here."
Jiang Fan was rarely so cautious. When Xiaodong went out, he sat up straight and said softly: "Senior brother, I found that some people always go to the back of the mountain these days. suspicious."
Mo Chen suddenly looked solemn: "Who is it?"
"Junior brother Zhai, Zhai Wenhui. As far as I have seen him twice, he didn't take the main road these two times. The previous time he went around from His Excellency Hengshi, and this time he walked from the side of the stone pagoda. Avoid people. If there is nothing strange, why does he deliberately hide his whereabouts?"
"Where did you see him go?"
Jiang Fan shook his head: "I didn't see him. I saw him from a distance and couldn't keep up."
Mo Chen pondered for a moment: "I know the background of Junior Brother Zhai, he should have nothing to do with those people last time."
Mo Chen knew the origins of all the disciples in Huiliu Mountain, maybe even Li Fulin didn't remember as clearly and meticulously as he did.
"Junior brother Zhai's father died early, he was a posthumous child, and his mother also passed away when he was eight years old. He lived by begging, and was seriously injured by a vicious dog raised by a wealthy family. At that time, Master was passing by Beifu City. He healed his wounds and brought him back to the mountain. Junior brother Zhai has a loyal character and good aptitude..."
Jiang Fan also knew what happened later, so his master took him in and became an outer disciple of Huiliu Mountain. Among the disciples of the outer sect, Zhai Wenhui was regarded as one of the top ones. He was also sincere to the master and the sect, without any selfish distractions.
It is said that others may have different intentions, but Mo Chen believes that he will not.
Junior brother Zhai must have some reason to do this.
Xiaodong didn't know what the brothers were discussing. He sat cross-legged, recited the mantra in his heart, and soon forgot about the things outside his body, and practiced his exercises wholeheartedly. (to be continued)
