A snowflake floated into the room with the opened door.
The icy cold wind rushed in, and the only warmth was gone—
Chen He quietly stood behind Shi Feng. He leaned against the screen, neither against the wall nor near the window. Anyone who wanted to sneak up on him or kidnap him had to pass the level of Shi Feng.
Giving his junior brother a calm look, Shi Feng said calmly, "There are no uninvited guests in the first month. Since the door is open, please come in."
Strange to say, more snowflakes floated in, melted quickly, and instantly filled with a layer of water mist.
After the fog dissipated, a figure wearing a long sword on his waist stood with his hands behind his back, and stepped lightly on the threshold.
This time Venerable Huanjian wore a rather festive blessing doll mask on his face, with bulging cheeks, squinting eyes, and a bright red color, against the dark black that even the sword was wrapped tightly. The robe is extremely weird.
Chen He couldn't help but wonder, why are there so many people in this world, for fear that others won't see that he is a demon cultivator
Even if it's a magician, there's no need to dress like this to suit your identity...
The open door closed automatically behind Venerable Huanjian.
Venerable Huanjian nodded arrogantly to Shi Feng, and without seeing anything, he sat down directly on a chair of the Grand Master a few days before the case. Long, pale fingers stick out from under the black robe, resting on the armrest of the dark orange-red wooden chair, imposingly.
Chen He has seen many monks in the Mahayana period, mainly in the Heiyuan Valley.
However, there is a really inscrutable image - only Liang Qianshan, the master of Daxueshan, although this person in front of him seems to be a stranger, but in view of the strange villain who appeared on the window before (haven't seen the shadow play), Chen He touched it again. Nope, he was very worried that this was a magic master who had been robbed outside by his senior brother recently.
"Master Mo?" Chen He asked.
"… "
Rao is Shi Feng, who is well-informed. He didn't know how to explain to his younger brother that the Mo family in the East Village was a demon cultivator, and the Zheng family in the West Village was the righteous way. A group of villagers worked hard to enter the city for this ridiculous joke.
"This is Venerable Huanjian." Shi Feng said.
It turned out to be the one who grabbed the Chinese cabbage with his senior brother at the Cultivation Market—Pfft, of course not. After so many years, Chen He was sitting behind the rocks on the mountain wall holding his bow, and it was enough for him to think about those precious memories that were few in the past. .
When Shi Feng said that he was going to buy things at the Cultivation Market, it was just an excuse. In fact, he was going to the house of Venerable Huanjian to grab the mirage beads.
Thinking of this, Chen He couldn't help being a little nervous. He quietly used True Yuan, but found that Shi Zhonghuo was paralyzed in his dantian like a puddle of loose sand, and he couldn't even lift it up.
Shi Feng held down Chen He's arm again and shook his head.
- Venerable Huanjian is the number one master of the magic way. He changed the previous Shi Feng, and he didn't take this title seriously, because he had seen the so-called master of the right way, the head of the aggregation sect, the cultivation of the late Mahayana, the spells are mysterious, and the foundation is profound. Although Shi Feng couldn't compare, it wasn't that he couldn't do anything about him.
In addition, there are overseas scattered cultivators, the masters who are not born in the southern border, they are both good and evil, and their cultivation is far more than the head of the Gathering Sect.
But after seeing Venerable Huanjian, Shi Feng really felt that this strange and reclusive guy was not the number one expert in the magic way at all, and the title most suitable for Venerable Huanjian should be the number one person in the cultivation world.
When Chen He saw Shi Feng being so cautious, he immediately understood that this Senior Huanjian might not be able to be beaten by his senior brother.
In this case, he simply relaxed his guard, walked out from behind Shi Feng, picked up the empty teapot, and walked out the door to greet the inn's second to bring hot tea again.
Since Venerable Huanjian was sitting not far from the door, Chen He could not avoid passing by him, but even Shi Feng felt nervous at this short distance, but Chen He walked very calmly.
In the end, he even turned around and closed the door, casually talking about what Shi Feng and Venerable Huanjian were talking about inside.
The two people in the room could clearly see with their divine sense that Chen He really went downstairs.
Venerable Huanjian coughed dryly and snapped his fingers.
The puppets that were originally imprisoned around the inn started to move one after another—when Venerable Huanjian came, Shi Feng was just upset, and Huanjian had a high cultivation level, so Shi Feng didn't notice that the puppet he was driving had gone wrong.
With a thought of Shi Feng, those puppets who had regained their freedom immediately changed their positions to protect Chen He.
"Thank you."
"You're welcome." Venerable Huanjian's face behind the mask showed no expression, but his voice contained a hint of ridicule, "Well, are you nervous?"
Shi Feng didn't answer, and soon he found that Venerable Huanjian's last sentence was even more difficult to answer.
"The sword is given to the hero, who is the pearl given to?" Venerable Huanjian asked in a loud voice.
- For the guy who ran to the house to grab the Wannian Mirage Pearl, it must be as cruel as the severe winter.
"Treasures have to be in the hands of the right people to make sense, just like the sword of the Venerable." Shi Feng said lightly.
"It's reasonable, Mingzhu doesn't mention it, let's talk about the fragments of the small world." Venerable Huanjian leaned back on the chair.
Of course, his shadow play is not for nothing. Why he came and what he did have been made clear. As the No. 1 master of the magic way, now it is enough to put on a arrogant and indifferent attitude.
"I smashed the fragments of the Small World with one palm? It's just a rumor, Venerable even believes such rumors?" Shi Feng also sat back at the table, picked up the cup to look at the pattern, and answered calmly.
"I believe Qin Meng's loyalty to me."
Venerable Huanjian refers to Captain Qin of Yuzhou Prefecture.
Shi Feng's eyelids twitched: "Captain Qin doesn't even have a foundation period. His Excellency's use of people is really eclectic."
"Good to say."
Venerable Huanjian will accept all compliments.
"..." Shi Feng didn't want to care about the face of the first master of the magic path, he could only change the statement, "Captain Qin, who didn't even have a foundation stage, left the ruins of the Thirteenth Square in Xicheng at Yinshi today, and the sky is not dark at this moment. , In just a few hours, the news spread from Yuzhou to the capital, and the Venerable came here in person?"
Who are you trying to deceive
Venerable Huanjian laughed and said, "What else?"
"Is there anything in Yuzhou City that attracts the attention of the Venerable?"
Shi Feng's expression turned cold, and his gaze at Venerable Huanjian also became sharp, "A few months ago, I ordered the puppet to capture Captain Qin, and later erased his memory. The trust and surveillance are equally strict, and I am afraid that someone will report to you that Qin Meng has been missing for less than half an hour."
Venerable Huanjian nodded cheerfully: "This is a trivial matter, insignificant."
"Indeed." Shi Feng said without any hesitation: "But when I came to the venerable mansion, and something happened, someone would definitely go forward to track it down. Small things that I couldn't figure out and didn't understand before were also a direction."
This thing seems strange, but it is very understandable.
Qin Duwei disappeared, and the person who kidnapped him must be inquiring about something. At that time, the only thing worthy of praise was that Venerable Huanjian and Liang Qianshan robbed the Beixuan secret treasure outside the pass.
Those who are interested in tracking down are likely to target this bizarre matter - since Qin Meng is only a foundation-building cultivator, it is unlikely that he will be used as a cover. The person who took him was in Yuzhou at the time. obvious.
"There is only one strange thing in the middle. Why is that person so sure that I was in Yuzhou three months ago, and I am still here now?"
"That person?" Venerable Huanjian was very cooperative.
"Your Excellency knows that I only want the Wannian Mirage Bead, and I have no interest in the Beixuan Secret Treasure. How could you involve me in the unknown disappearance of Captain Qin when you got the Beixuan Secret Treasure?" Shi Feng frowned. .
Because of this, he let Chen He live in Yuzhou with peace of mind.
"It seems that Venerable has a good subordinate. Not only does he know about Beixuan's secret treasure, but he can also find out where I am from the clues, and even knows that Shi has concerns and needs to find a place to settle down. Can move easily—" Shi Feng's tone was not good, he stared at Venerable Huanjian and said, "On this last thing, only Liang Qianshan knows, Venerable, your subordinate, how to make Daxueshan Divine Master willing to tell the secret ?"
Contacting the recently rumored Beixuan Secret Treasure in the comprehension world that Shi Feng obtained, the two had a big fight at the residence of Venerable Huanjian. Although the news was released by Daxueshan, some of Venerable Huanjian's subordinates not only acquiesced to the matter, but even There are signs of fueling the fire. The truth behind this is simply intriguing.
"So when I arrived in Yuzhou, I didn't hear that the Small World Fragment was broken by you—" Venerable Huanjian was interested in summarizing Shi Feng, and admitted by the way, "I didn't hear it from Qin Meng to break the Small World Fragment with one palm. Yes, I saw it with my own eyes last night!"
Shi Feng was silent.
Venerable Huanjian touched the mask and said slowly: "Although I am very curious about breaking the world, I am even more interested in that strange subordinate. I declared a retreat to the outside world, but I actually came to Yuzhou quietly. After the accident at the Thirteenth Square in Xicheng, I saw Daoist Shi Feng hurried over, and I saw the little friend just now, why he was so sure that you were in Yuzhou, to the guy who pretended to be scheming and playing tricks."
Shi Feng's pupils shrank suddenly.
He originally thought that Venerable Huanjian had obtained the report from that subordinate and rushed here when he knew that he and his junior brother were in Yuzhou. However, Venerable Huanjian used the retreat as an excuse but was not afraid of being suspected. "The matter, Venerable Huanjian doesn't know on the bright side. So what was the biggest problem that caused Venerable Huanjian to come to Yuzhou
"Little friend outside the door, you've been listening to it for a while. You might as well come in and talk to fellow Daoist Shi Feng. He cares about it and is a little confused." Venerable Huanjian said with a smile.
Chen He opened the door and put the hot tea on the table.
On the second day of the first lunar month, there were not many people left in the inn, and many things had to be done by themselves.
Chen He held the hand that carried the pot and didn't tremble at all, but his face was ugly.
"Senior brother, you got the mirage beads for me... and went out for three days. After I came back, I ate the mirage beads and slept for seven days. Then the senior brother handed me over to Daochang Changmei to look after me, and went out again until I came here last night. In the past ten days What's the biggest thing that happened in Yuzhou City?"
Needless to say, of course it's a demon fox.
Last night, the eight-tailed fox made a riot, but Venerable Huanjian came before that—wait!
"Li Junshou?"
Shi Feng quickly recalled what Chen He had said to himself, that his father, Ding You, the governor of Chen Jun, had left his post. Qin Meng said today that Li Junshou came to Yuzhou for less than ten days! Qin Meng also said that he had deliberately checked the records of Li Junshou's previous appointments. Of course, it would not write about the demise of the small sect in the cultivation world or the inexplicable killing of monks. Unless you specifically compared the time and place, it would be difficult to think of such a thing.
It is impossible for Captain Qin to be idle and do nothing to doubt an ordinary mortal.
It is a common practice in the world of self-cultivation to separate the traces of ordinary people and monks. No one will specifically wake up, and no one will investigate the connection between the two.
"You secretly ordered Captain Qin to investigate Li Jun." Shi Feng stared at Venerable Huanjian.
"good."
Venerable Huanjian said coldly, "Dingyou, the governor of Chen County in Yuzhou, has resigned. It coincides with the severe drought in Yuzhou, and officials cannot be easily replaced. Half a month ago, the officials originally planned to be dispatched by the imperial court to take over the time of Chen County were seriously ill and had diarrhea halfway through." This incident happened on the second day after you came to my house to take the mirage beads. There is a case in this dynasty. There is absolutely no example of officials taking office in the first month of the year. Quick turn to Yuzhou, and Li Junshou, who was supposed to go to Beijing to report his duties in October, for some reason the summoning was dragged down, and he has been delayed at the post at the junction of Yuzhou and Qingzhou."
This is very strange, and the person who took over Chen County Shou before is even more strange.
It was like there was a group of people in the dark. They just didn't want Li Junshou to come to the capital, but they didn't know what to do with him. They suddenly found out that the disappearance of Qin Duwei was related to the Gorefiend, and immediately threw the Li Junshou, who had gone wrong, to Yuzhou. .
In the imperial court, it was supposed to be the sphere of influence of Venerable Huanjian. If such a strange thing happened, it would certainly attract his attention.
Does anyone know the eight-tailed fox...
I also know that Shi Feng and Chen He are in Yuzhou...
"What's the point!"
Shi Feng was furious and shattered the entire wooden table.
Chen He quickly picked up the pot of hot tea, so as not to let it suffer the bad luck of the table.
He leaned in front of Shi Feng, raised his head and said, "Maybe it's just a coincidence, Yuzhou is so big, no one can guess where the demon fox is doing."
When Shi Feng saw Chen He standing in front of him, the impetuous anger in his heart was calmed down.
Chen He looked at Venerable Huanjian with bad eyes: "Is there any basis for what Venerable said? To convince my senior brother to believe what you said, the sincerity you took the initiative to find today must be expressed."
Venerable Huanjian was silent for a while.
He suddenly reached out and took off the mask from his face.
The author has something to say: TO Jihong: Although you have a high double quotient, you have no trace of what you do, and it seems reasonable, but you are just a rebirth, and you have not blessed "the halo of "everyone around you has lost their IQ", others are not stupid, and the process is confidential. , look at the results will find that is wrong.
