At dawn, roosters crow, the courtyard is bustling with people, birds chirp, and there is a burst of crunching footsteps outside the window.
It’s another brand new day, and people who get up early are already busy with their lives.
Xu Feng got up, put on his clothes, and stood in front of the window. He couldn't close his eyes all night, always having a premonition that something ominous was going to happen. He lay on the bed and closed his eyes to rest. Although his eyes were closed, he did not dare to let himself fall asleep. Always be alert to all kinds of movements outside the window. What happened during the day was so abnormal!
He was thinking about how to find Lei Zhentian today.
At this time, Liu Ruyan had also gotten up, opened the window, and looked towards the courtyard. There were many pedestrians coming and going on the corridor. Most of these people were merchants and merchants dressed in civilian clothes, but there were also some monks and Taoist priests who were indifferent to worldly affairs, and people from the martial arts world dressed in strange clothes.
Suddenly, two strangely dressed men and women appeared in the crowd. The man is of medium build, wearing a bright red suit, with his hair standing straight and pulled into two sharp horns, like a cow's horns. There was a large golden sword strapped to his back. This outfit is very weird and really attracts everyone's attention.
The woman is as tall as the man, but plump and round. Her waist is as thick as a bucket, which makes her look extremely strong. Her hair is high, her face is like a full moon, her skin is white and tender, and she holds a three-foot-long black scabbard in her hand. sword!
Xu Feng looked towards the noisy place and suddenly caught a glimpse of the two people. He couldn't help being shocked: It turned out to be them! Sure enough, they showed up! But I wonder if they have heard any news about Lei Zhentian? We should explore the truth from them!
Liu Ruyan and Luo Xiangxue had naturally seen those two people, but they didn't seem surprised. They had already known that they were from the Flying Eagle Castle before at Guanyun Inn, so it was normal for them to appear here. .
However, what is uncertain is whether they know that Xu Feng and others are also in the Flying Eagle Castle? If they had known it, what would they have done?
At this time, Liu Ruyan planned to tell Xu Feng what he saw. As everyone knows, Xu Feng has also seen these two people.
Xu Feng and Liu Ruyan both pushed the door open and faced each other. Liu Ruyan said good morning to Xu Feng! Xu Feng smiled, straightened his clothes, and suddenly said: "Nephew Liu Xian, did you sleep well last night?"
Liu Ruyan smiled and said: "To be honest with uncle, I didn't sleep all night!"
Xu Feng looked surprised, frowned and asked, "Oh, why don't you sleep? We all had a hard time running long distance yesterday! My dear nephew, are you worried?"
Liu Ruyan thought for a while and said, "I don't know why, but I can't sleep!" His face became serious, because he had not slept all night, and his face looked a little pale and haggard.
Xu Feng smiled and said, "Actually, I didn't sleep all night either."
Liu Ruyan felt puzzled and said, "Isn't it possible that uncle can't sleep too?"
While talking, there was a creak and Luo Xiangxue opened the door. She looked sleepy. She rubbed her eyes and said with a smile: "Uncle Xu, Brother Liu, you are so early!"
Xu Feng smiled lightly and said: "Miss Luo, it's good for you too! Did you sleep well last night?"
Luo Xiangxue shook her head and murmured: "Not so good! I couldn't sleep in the first half of the night, and then I fell asleep at some point!"
In the early morning, the courtyard was misty, the birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant, and the air was filled with a sweet smell of earth.
Xu Feng and Liu Ruyan looked at each other and smiled. Luo Xiangxue thought they were laughing at her. She frowned at the two of them and said, "Why are you laughing?"
Liu Ruyan sighed and said with a wry smile: "My uncle and I didn't sleep all night, and we don't know what happened!"
Luo Xiangxue was even more surprised and joked: "You two grown men can't sleep? It's really unheard of!" She looked around the courtyard and suddenly said, "Uncle Xu, what are we going to do today?" She looked at Xu Feng and straightened her hair on her temples.
Xu Feng stroked his beard and said thoughtfully: "Let's wait for Brother Lu to come before we make plans! If Lei Zhentian is here, he must be able to find a way for us to find it." He suddenly remembered what he saw by the window just now Ye Yuhe and Ding Sanni changed the subject and said, "I just saw the two people I met at Guanyun Inn!"
Liu Ruyan and Luo Xiangxue looked at each other, their hearts trembling, but there was no panic on their faces. They were originally from Flying Eagle Castle, so it was not surprising to see them here.
Liu Ruyan nodded and said slowly: "Yes, these two people are acting strangely. They are also looking for Uncle Lei, but I don't know if they have found any clues! Their purpose is to harm Uncle Lei, so we must find them We found Uncle Lei before. We must also be careful that these two people are not good for us!" He walked to the foot of a weeping willow tree. Looking at the sparkling water, his brows were furrowed and twisted into a knot that was difficult to untie.
Luo Xiangxue walked up to Liu Ruyan and said quietly: "I think these two people don't know our true identity and the purpose of coming here yet. They shouldn't use force against us, but we can secretly Follow them and see what they will do next? We must not let them find Uncle Rei first, otherwise, Uncle Rei might be in danger!"
Xu Feng looked around, and just now Ye Yuhe and Ding Sanni appeared in the corridor beside the waterside pavilion, seeming to be talking about something. After a while, the two people disappeared. Xu Feng looked at the place where they stayed by the waterside pavilion, feeling secretly annoyed that he had not been able to pay attention to their movements at any time.
At this time, Liu Ruyan followed Xu Feng's gaze and saw that the two people had disappeared. He couldn't help but sigh: "Oh, they are gone!" He looked at Xu Feng in surprise.
Liu Ruyan murmured: "We were careless, we should have followed them. Now we don't know when we will meet them!"
Xu Feng pondered and said slowly: "My dear nephew, there is no need to be angry. We will wait for Brother Lu to come and then discuss it further!"
Just as he was talking, a figure appeared from behind the rockery in front of him. Not far away, he could clearly see that the figure was heading south.
Lu Xiangnan looked in a hurry and walked towards this side with long strides. Before anyone could get closer, when they saw Xu Feng, they smiled happily, bowed their hands, and saluted, "Brother Xu, Liu Shaoxia, and Miss Luo, you three are so early! Could it be that you have been waiting for a long time? I really forgive you!" When he saw it, The three of them stood chatting under the willow tree, thinking they were waiting for him. He looked a little embarrassed, so he just apologized to the three of them.
Xu Feng and the other three also clasped their fists and returned the greeting. Xu Feng said: "Brother Lu, why are you so polite? I am so grateful for your care yesterday, and I haven't even thanked you yet! To be honest, brother, we have just gotten up for a while. What can we do this time? With my brother’s help, I think I will be able to find him.”
Lu Xiangnan smiled and said: "Hey, I have already said that the eldest brother's business is the younger brother's business. As long as the eldest brother can use the younger brother's place, just ask. Finally, if eldest brother returns to Cuihua Mountain and sees me, he will immediately Big brother, how about you give me a message for my little brother?"
Xu Feng sighed and said excitedly: "My brother is really kind-hearted and loyal. If you don't mind, can you come with me to Cuihua to seek common development? In this way, I will get a talented person, and you brothers can also get together!" Isn’t it the best of both worlds?”
Xu Feng suddenly received a warm invitation, but he couldn't react for a moment. He was a little confused in his mind, and then he said: "I am very honored to be appreciated by my eldest brother. I shouldn't refuse such a beautiful thing to my eldest brother, but ..." He was speechless for a moment, as if he had something to hide, and he didn't know how to speak.
Xu Feng's heart trembled. Seeing that he seemed to have some difficulty in telling him, he didn't want to ask more questions, so he smiled and said: "Brother Lu, if you haven't thought about it yet, let's put this matter aside for the time being. Let's talk about it another day."
Liu Ruyan suddenly said: "I have something I want to ask Zhuangshi Lu!"
Lu Xiangnan looked at him and said seriously: "Oh, Liu Shaoxia has something to do, but it doesn't matter!"
Liu Ruyan frowned and said, "I wonder if the strong man Lu recognizes the two people named Ye Yuhe and Ding Sanni in the Flying Eagle Castle?"
Lu Xiangnan was startled when he heard this, and was very surprised: How could they mention these two killers?
He then muttered: "Ye Yuhe and Ding Sanni, I recognize these two people. These two are Ting Yuxuan's killers! I wonder what Liu Shaoxia is asking about them?"
When the three of them heard the name "Ting Yuxuan", they were suddenly startled, with doubts on their faces.
Luo Xiangxue couldn't help but ask: "Who is Ting Yuxuan?"
Lu Xiangnan paced, looking at a mountain in the distance, and said quietly: "Tingyuxuan is a killer organization that suddenly appeared in the world in recent years. They specialize in taking over all kinds of killing businesses, and there are dozens of people in the group. There are so many people who can be dispatched by Master Ting Yuxuan at any time. I heard that they not only accept murder missions, but also track, find people, track down and other businesses!"
The three of them nodded slowly, seeming to understand some of the situation.
Liu Ruyan looked solemn and said slowly: "Let's be honest, brave man, we met those two people in Liujia Village, Jianmen Pass yesterday!"
Lu Xiangnan's expression changed and he said hurriedly: "Oh, is there such a thing? Did they say anything?"
Liu Ruyan said: "They stayed at the Guanyun Inn with us and asked us about Lei Zhentian. We heard their conversation in the lobby, saying that they were looking for Lei Zhentian and wanted to intercept and kill him!"
Lu Xiangnan was shocked, opened his eyes wide, and said, "Why did they intercept and kill Lei Zhentian?"
Liu Ruyan said to herself again: "We heard that it was under the instruction of a hall master, so we guessed that the hall master they were talking about must have something to do with Lei Zhentian! They couldn't explain exactly what happened. .”
Lu Xiangnan asked again: "Then did they tell the name of the hall master?"
Liu Ruyan shook his head and sighed: "That's not true. Let's discuss whether we can start with those two people. Maybe we can find out something about them!"
Lu Xiangnan nodded thoughtfully and said, "What Liu Shaoxia said is not unreasonable, but where are those two people now? Ting Yuxuan's people rarely show up, and the tasks they take over are strictly confidential. They will never disclose their plans to outsiders easily! This time you overheard it, it is really an important clue!"
Xu Feng interjected: "Just half an hour ago, those two people appeared at the waterside pavilion ahead!"
Lu Xiangnan was suddenly stunned and lost his voice: "Huh? They returned to Flying Eagle Castle. Could it be that their conspiracy has succeeded?"
Xu Feng stroked his beard and said quietly: "That's not necessarily the case. It's just that we were just talking and failed to pay more attention to their movements. Now they are missing!"
Lu Xiangnan pondered and said, "In that case, we have to go and find out on our own!" He looked around and saw the pedestrians coming and going on the corridor, in groups of three or five, carrying burdens or carrying baskets. They all looked like traffickers and lackeys. , idle people and so on.
Xu Feng looked at Lu Xiangnan and said slowly, "I wonder what Brother Lu has to say about finding Lei Zhentian?"
Lu Xiangnan sighed quietly and said: "I have been here for more than ten years, and I still know a lot about the Jianghu sects hundreds of miles away. In my opinion, the only solution now is to first join the mysterious organizations in the Flying Eagle Castle. Let’s make some inquiries! If we can meet the two killers in Tingyuxuan again, we can follow them, and we can act like a mantis stalking the cicada, with the oriole behind!"
