After hearing the report from the city guards about Wu Jun's triumphant return, Jun Fengqing quickly packed up the files at hand and rushed to Luo Hou's residence. Along the way, he still had some doubts in his mind.
The secret whistle along the way did not report the news.
This is obviously not normal.
Considering that if the eldest brother was on his way in Huahong, it would be understandable that they couldn't make it. The gap in strength between the two sides was too huge, but he always felt that something was wrong.
No matter what, the eldest brother is back anyway, just ask him.
With this mentality, Jun Fengqing hurried to the courtyard where Luo Hou lived on weekdays, ready to find out.
However, when he walked outside the courtyard, what he saw in front of him made him freeze on the spot, and he swallowed the words he wanted to say.
Even through the wind and snow, Jun Fengqing could clearly see a blond man in a golden shirt holding a blond woman in a white shirt.
"It's over, it's over, it's over!"
In the courtyard, the two people seemed to be disturbed by the sudden sound. They stiffly turned their heads to look outside the courtyard. Jun Fengqing shouted in her heart that something was wrong and used the fastest reaction speed in her life:
"Brother, just come back. Let's talk about it later. I won't disturb you."
After finishing his words quickly, he didn't dare to look at the expressions of the two of them, so he turned around and ran away.
Things are getting serious, all aspects are getting serious.
Now, he was not worried about whether he would be silenced. Instead, he began to worry about Luo Hou. Huai Sheng Qiao's identity was too special. If this matter was not handled well, it would be more serious than the sky falling.
The senior brother in charge is afraid that he will chop the eldest brother to death with his sword.
No, no, he has to go find Li Jing to discuss it.
…………
There was silence in the courtyard, and even the surrounding air pressure had dropped a lot at this moment, and it continued to drop.
After confirming that Jun Fengqing had left, Luo Hou hurriedly let go of him, took two steps back and bowed, his movements were a bit stiff, and he had no choice but to do something disrespectful for the sake of the overall situation:
"Feel sorry."
This behavior was extremely inconsistent with him and made Huaisheng Qiao, who was already a little uncomfortable, even more uncomfortable.
For some unknown reason, Huaisheng Qiao did not pursue Luo Hou's actions just now. His current condition was too bad. In addition to the cold sweat that had been flowing, his breath disorder was even more serious than when he first came back.
In fact, she could clearly feel the destructive force in Luo Hu's body when they made contact just now.
That should be the problem.
The movement of his body calmed down his vaguely hot face and his thoughts. Huaisheng Qiao quickly returned to his usual posture, as if nothing happened just now.
Then, she looked at Luo Hou and asked seriously: "What happened?"
In addition to the support from Confucianism and Buddhism, the greatest success Tian Neng can achieve today is Luo Hou's ability. Naturally, the fewer people who know about this matter, the better.
The situation in Xiwulin is far from harmonious as it seems.
If word spread that Luo Hou was seriously injured, the jackals in the dark would definitely take the opportunity to cause chaos, hoping to get a piece of the pie.
"The evil has been over, but I was careless this time."
Luo Hou spoke with difficulty in a hoarse voice. Before he could finish speaking, he started coughing violently: "Cough cough cough——"
Blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth, dyeing his shirt red, and the blood splashed onto the thin layer of snow on the ground, which was very dazzling.
His current situation is not that he encountered a strong enemy, but simply because of his own carelessness.
At that time, after reading the memories left by Lin Chongyang, he chose to put a dangerous idea into practice without making any preparation, trying to draw the power of natural and earthly disasters into his body.
He never thought that his level was not enough to complete this step.
Then, it became what it is now.
Fortunately, in his first attempt, he didn't pull too much, and there was Blood Sky as a check and balance. Otherwise, his condition might be even worse than now.
The dazzling red color made Huaisheng Qiao a little confused: "Stop talking now, talk to me later, and heal your wounds quickly."
Given her age, her experience in dealing with emergencies is somewhat inferior.
The person in front of him was momentarily confused, which made Luo Hou feel a little strange. He looked at the person and asked seriously:
"Ahem——, please help me keep this matter a secret."
The current situation will not last too long. If Heaven does not need him to sit in and maintain the overall situation, he can even cultivate outside for another ten years. By then, even if he cannot fully recover, there will be no flaws.
Fortunately, my friend had already returned to the De Feng Ancient Road. As long as he could hide this the first time, there would basically be no problems in the future.
Huaisheng Qiao took the Tianji or Tianji and threw it to Luo Hou with his backhand, so that he could use his strength to support:
"You should know that you can't hide it for too long."
Luohou leaned on his halberd and the ground to gain strength, and first began to adjust his own condition:
"Huh-huh-"
The red glow surrounded him with deep breaths again and again, filled with vitality, and the chaotic breath began to calm down.
After a while, as the breathing rate recovered, Luo Hou's complexion also improved a lot.
At least, that's what it looks like on the surface.
He had been forcibly suppressing his injuries all the way, but now that the accumulated waste blood had been drained, the situation had improved a little.
】
Raising his hand to wipe away the blush from the corner of his mouth, Luo Hou slowly spoke:
"It doesn't take long. As long as no flaws are revealed tomorrow, I will take this opportunity as an excuse to stay in seclusion for a period of time."
When he comes out, even if he can't completely solve it, it won't affect his performance, and the rest will depend on hard work.
The ancients said that a blessing in disguise is a blessing in disguise.
Although he was seriously injured this time, the experience he accumulated is also extremely valuable. Even the power of the disaster can help him strengthen his physical body. If it is in the long run, then there is no problem. The problem is now.
…………
At the same time, in another courtyard
After handing the teacup in his hand to Jun Fengqing, Yu Lijing comforted him:
"Don't worry, this isn't necessarily a bad thing."
After hearing the other party's description, Yu Lijing raised her eyebrows slightly. This was indeed shocking news, but the matter was far from as serious as Jun Fengqing said.
With his uncle's character, how could he stab someone with a sword for no reason?
"Isn't this a bad thing? The crown prince of a world, no matter how you look at it, it is a big deal, right?"
Jun Fengqing sighed, he was the crown prince of the world, and the next generation successor who was appointed was unlikely to be a military queen in Tiandu. What a dilemma.
"The two of them should know right from wrong better than you and me."
"I'm just worried about you, brother. Alas."
After a brief consideration, Yu Lijing looked at the person opposite: "What if there is more than one crown prince?"
"Is there such a good thing?" Jun Fengqing raised the cup and drank it in one gulp.
It was about the diplomatic relations between the two countries and the life-long matter of his eldest brother, so he was naturally very concerned about it.
"You can send a flying letter to Chenglin first, but we can't get involved in this kind of thing. It still depends on them."
