The coolness in the villa gives people a comfortable and comfortable feeling, as if you can fall asleep leisurely as soon as you close your eyes.
The owner of the villa is a businessman from Kyoto. He occasionally comes to stay in the mountains for leisure. Most of the time, the villa is used by guests.
Although it is in the mountains, the sparrow is small but has all the internal organs.
Yu Zhi wandered around the villa. Bright candles were lit in many guest rooms, and the sound of reading could be heard.
Once summer is over, it’s been a long time since Qingyun tried. This is an opportunity for these poor students to leap over the dragon gate, and it is also an opportunity to change their destiny.
Listening to the sound of reading, Yu Zhi smiled a little.
About half a year ago, he was also a scholar at Wenwen Academy, and like these scholars, he was preparing for the exam.
It's just that they were preparing for the Qingyun Examination, while Yu Zhi was preparing for the Academy Examination of Dawen Academy.
"I don't know if anyone can re-open the A list in this year's Qingyun Examination." Yu Zhi muttered.
Yu Zhi refused to go back to his room, and the embarrassment of running away could not be dissipated in a short while.
While walking, Yu Zhi suddenly saw someone blocking the way.
"Sorry." Yu Zhi apologized and wanted to avoid the other party.
"You must be Yu Zhi," the other party said.
Yu Zhi stopped and then raised his head to look at the other party.
This is a young man who looks to be only fifteen or sixteen years old. He is not tall and has red lips and white teeth. He looks like a young girl.
"Who are you? How do you know me?" Yu Zhi said doubtfully.
Although the boy is young, there is an inexplicable arrogance on his face, as if I am the best in the world.
"You don't have to worry about how I know you, it's enough that I know you."
Yu Zhi curled his lips and walked away indifferently.
The young man was stunned and said unwillingly: "Don't you want to know who I am?"
"I don't want to." Yu Zhi said boredly.
The young man felt slighted and quickly followed Yu Zhi. "Yu Zhi, nineteen years old, asked about the shame, and is currently the ninth-rank secretary of the Supervisory Yuan. He investigated the murder of a northern official and killed the culprit Cang Shui. But this is not your credit. If it weren't for Li Haomiao, You don’t dare to go to Cangshan Mountain.”
"Cang Shui and others were also frightened by Li Haomiao, so they held back their hands and feet and did not dare to kill you. Otherwise, you would have died in Cangshan. In the end, you are just a villain pretending to be powerful."
The boy followed Yu Zhi and whispered in Yu Zhi's ears.
The contemptuous tone, the arrogant demeanor...all show the arrogance of the young man.
Suddenly, Yu Zhi stopped and turned to look at the young and arrogant young man.
"Have I ever offended you?" Yu Zhi asked curiously. "I have many enemies, but in my impression, there seems to be no brat like you."
Hearing the words "little brat", the young man suddenly became furious and said angrily: "Everyone shouts that it's shameful to be beaten. If you didn't have a good background, you would be a street gangster and a scoundrel in the city."
Yu Zhi didn't pay attention to the young man's words, but he also grasped the key point.
Good background?
What is a good background?
This is something Yu Zhi doesn't even know.
After all, Yu Zhi didn’t even know who his biological parents were.
The young man suddenly felt a chill, which spread from his scalp to the soles of his feet.
I saw Yu Zhi staring at the young man, his gaze seemed to freeze the young man.
"Do you know my origin?"
Suddenly, the young man trembled all over and his eyes were panicked. He knew that he had said the wrong thing, which aroused Yu Zhi's suspicion.
In his haste, the young man immediately said: "There is an aunt who is a great Chu scholar, an uncle who is a swordsman master, any one of them is the supporter that countless students from poor families dream of. If you are not from a good background, who in the world can be better than you?" "
Thinking about it this way, Yu Zhi also felt that it made sense.
Yu Zhi continued to ask: "Tell me first, what grudge do I have against you?"
"No grudges." The young man flicked his sleeves and clasped his hands behind his back. "I just despise you."
"Tch!" Yu Zhi also imitated the young man's posture and expression and flicked his sleeves. "There are so many people who look down on me, who do you think you are? What a childish trick."
Yu Zhi continued to walk forward, not caring.
In Kyoto and at Dawen Academy, Yu Zhi had seen many such tricks, and he had survived for so many years with his self-reliant spirit.
What does the boy's sarcasm mean?
The young man looked at Yu Zhi's back and snorted in a low voice: "Someone has prepared a big gift for you. Just wait. Let's see how long you can be proud of it?"
...
After walking around the villa, Yu Zhi returned to the guest room.
Li Wantong was sitting in the room, looking at Yu Zhi who had returned with a serious expression.
"Tong'er." Yu Zhi said with a smile.
Li Wantong smiled softly, blooming like jasmine. She gently pulled Yu Zhi up and sat on the edge of the bed.
"Why are you afraid when this happens? Isn't this unlike you?"
Yu Zhi is indeed a person with a lustful heart but no courage, but he respects Li Wantong more. It's my wedding day, so there's no harm in enduring it.
"I also want to wait for our wedding day."
Li Wantong understands Yu Zhi just as Yu Zhi understands Li Wantong.
Yu Zhi continued: "Tong'er, you may encounter a lot of trouble after returning to Beijing tomorrow, but you don't need to worry, I will take care of everything."
Yu Zhi gave Li Wantong a foreshadowing in advance. The undercurrent in Kyoto is gradually coming to the surface, and Yu Zhi always remembers Li Haomiao's reminder - don't trust Qiu Jinfeng too much.
At night, Li Wantong slept on the bed, while Yu Zhi slept on the soft couch on the other side.
Li Wantong opened his eyes, clutching the quilt tightly with his two small hands, looking at Yu Zhi not far away from time to time, feeling nervous but also with a faint expectation in his heart.
"Is this guy really asleep?"
"Do we really have to wait until the wedding day?"
"Oh, Yu Zhi is so annoying, I even call him husband."
Li Wantong's girlish thoughts will definitely make her sleepless.
After all, this was her first time sleeping in the same room as a man.
Yu Zhi was equally nervous. He closed his eyes and fell asleep, trying to keep his breathing steady. But Li Wantong was not a practitioner, so he naturally couldn't hear the changes in his breath.
Yu Zhi is nothing more than a guilty conscience and unnecessary action.
Suddenly, Li Wantong spoke softly: "Yu Zhi, are you asleep?"
There was silence in the room, the moonlight filtered through the window and fell on the soft couch.
Li Wantong waited for Yu Zhi's response. The long silence made Li Wantong think that Yu Zhi had fallen asleep.
Li Wantong breathed a sigh of relief, and the tension in his heart eased a lot, and he finally felt a little sleepy.
Yu Zhi was thinking about the immature boy and the boy's words. Now that he thought about it carefully, Yu Zhi felt more and more suspicious.
Who would cite aunts and uncles as their origins?
This young man must know my life experience. If my aunt still refuses to tell me clearly, maybe we can start with this young man.
But why is he so hostile to me?
Could it be another grudge caused by the previous generation?
Thinking of this, Yu Zhi couldn't help but sigh again, "Mom and dad, it's really hard to be your child."
Amid such sighs, Yu Zhi also gradually fell asleep.
In the depths of the villa, apart from the scholars who stayed up late to read, there was also a place where there was a faint candlelight flickering.
Those weak candlelights are like the eyes of lonely ghosts in the deep mountains and old forests. They are sinister and cold and will definitely bring danger to people.
"Are you ready for everything the prince ordered?"
"Everything is ready. We are just waiting for tomorrow morning. Everything will go as we arranged."
"The Crown Prince attaches great importance to this operation and must not make any mistakes."
"Tomorrow, Yu Zhi will definitely die without a burial place."
"Okay, let's inform the people under me that it's time to do something."
call!
The candle went out and darkness returned to the room.
Several black shadows streaked across the night sky, and the sound of slight hasty footsteps was inaudible, lighter than the rustling of leaves in the forest.
The cold light of the blade flashed across the dark corridor, as if the knife was about to split it in half.
Yu Zhi suddenly opened his eyes and was aware of the movement outside.
"Protect Tong'er!" Yu Zhi said softly into the silent darkness.
Although there was no feedback, he knew that the people who should hear this sentence would naturally hear it.
Immediately, Yu Zhi's figure disappeared into the room.
Not only Yu Zhi, but also Lao Huang and Ning Huan appeared in the courtyard, and dozens of masked men had surrounded the place.
Yu Zhi glanced at the other person, feeling the other person's aura. "Old Huang, protect them. Ning Huan, these people are left to you."
Ning Huan nodded, he was a killer, and Yi Shihuan's reputation also held some weight in the Dachu killer world.
Naturally, these little bastards were not taken seriously by him.
At this time, a burst of fire soared into the sky and exploded in the villa. The monstrous flames turned into fire dragons and roared on the earth, turning the entire villa into scorched earth.
The sound of the explosion woke everyone up, and countless screams echoed. There were also people who died in the explosion and could not utter a cry.
The rest of the people also walked out of the room, seeing everything in front of them without any unnecessary fear.
The threat and shock brought by Mr. Third and his group were far stronger than those of these dozen masked men.
Because of the fire caused by the explosion, the entire villa was in chaos, with people running for their lives everywhere. Nothing is more important than life.
Yu Zhi frowned slightly, who sent this killer?
On the eaves not far away, a figure was staring at Yu Zhi, and Yu Zhi was also staring at him.
"If you want to kill me, these people may not be enough." Yu Zhi shouted towards the figure.
The other party also looked at Yu Zhi and said, "You won't know until you try whether you can kill him or not."
Yu Zhi took one step forward and raised his sword to kill the figure. In an instant, a thunder fell. It's exactly where the other person is.
boom!
The eaves of the house collapsed, and countless broken wood and rubble flew.
The man was shocked and realized that he would not be Yu Zhi's opponent.
But he never thought of killing Yu Zhi.
The sword light broke through the night again and appeared behind the man.
escape! This was his only way to survive and it was part of his plan.
Although his strength is weak, his speed is surprisingly fast.
One chasing and the other escaping, the two of them galloped through the burning villa.
"You can't escape." Yu Zhi said.
The other party didn't answer, but just walked through the fire scene. With countless people running away, there was no time to pay attention to these two people.
The figure jumped into the flames, and the figure was covered. The raging fire was like a gate to hell. No one knew what kind of ghosts and monsters were behind it.
Yu Zhi hesitated for a moment. Killing was not Yu Zhi's purpose. The most important thing was to find out who was behind the scenes.
Mr. San and others would not send such a low-level killer. Who do these people belong to?
Could it be that Li Xiuyuan sent him to kill Tong'er?
This old immortal hasn't given up yet?
While Yu Zhi was thinking, a black shadow flew out of the fire field.
Yu Zhi didn't think much, raised his hand and slashed out with his sword.
Call the wind and snow with one sword!
The wind and snow hit, causing the surrounding temperature to drop a few points.
The black shadow was frozen, the sword light fell on his body, and sword marks were all over his body in an instant.
What should have been a shrill scream only came out as a muffled sound, as if something was blocked in his throat.
Until the black shadow fell in front of him, Yu Zhi asked in surprise: "Zhao Jie?"
Isn't this the same Zhao Jie who instigated Wang Xiao in Beiliang Mansion and colluded with Yuan Hongxin to besiege the small courtyard?
Why is he here?
Yu Zhi looked at Zhao Jie who had no breath, but didn't care.
Zhao Jie should have been killed long ago!
