Lei Zhentian and Liu Ruyan held a candle and talked at night, and before they knew it, it was already dawn.
The window gradually turns white, chickens and dogs are heard in the courtyard, and the huge Flying Eagle Castle looks like a wilderness mountain village.
Liu Ruyan was filled with sorrow, staring at the hazy sky outside the window, and said quietly: "It is getting dark soon. This is not a place where we can stay for a long time. We must leave as soon as possible after uncle's injury is better."
Lei Zhentian pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Young Master Liu, I couldn't save Brother Chu. I'm so sorry for you!" He couldn't help feeling sad, and his voice gradually choked with sobs.
Liu Ruyan straightened his clothes and said: "Uncle Lei, please don't say that. How can I blame you for this! Listen to what you said, those people just came for me. I must find the master and figure it out. What on earth is going on!”
Lei Zhentian pondered: "When I woke up that day, they had disappeared and the thatched cottage was destroyed by them. There was only an iron plate scattered beside me with the words "Hell Gate" written on it. I think this iron plate was scattered around me. They must have left the cards on purpose. The purpose of doing so is self-evident, which is to reveal their identities and let us find them! I guess there must be a bigger conspiracy here."
Liu Ruyan said slowly: "Their purpose is just to force me to show up! But I really can't figure out what kind of organization Hell Gate is? I have never heard the master talk about it, and I have no grudge against them. They Why are you looking for me?"
Lei Zhentian's complexion has recovered a lot, and his eyes are full of energy. He consoled him: "Young Master Liu, please don't get angry in a hurry. This matter is extraordinary and we need to consider it in the long run! Besides, the gate of hell is far beyond the Great Wall, and the Emperor is far away." Yeah, it’s really not easy to find them!”
Liu Ruyan looked at Lei Zhentian on the bed and said with concern: "Uncle Lei, you haven't slept all night, you'd better sleep a little longer!"
Lei Zhentian waved his hands and sighed: "How can I sleep? Although I have avenged my cousin and finally settled this matter that has troubled me for twenty years, I still can't be happy!"
Liu Ruyan looked at his sad face and knew that he still had some unspeakable secrets that could not be easily solved. The old man with a face full of vicissitudes of life in front of him made him feel sad!
Liu Ruyan didn't understand what he was worried about. He had already avenged his cousin, so he should be happy about it, but there was no excitement at all on his face, instead it was full of sorrow and melancholy.
Liu Ruyan did not ask why. It seemed that many things did not need to be asked because there was no correct answer at all.
This close friend of the master, when I first met him, he was so high-spirited, but the old man in front of me looked so down and out. How could this be the famous "Kyuzhou Shot" Lei Zhentian? ?
Lei Zhentian raised his eyes and looked out the window. At this moment, the sky was bright and the fresh morning light had enveloped the mountains and fields. The courtyard was bustling with people, chirping birds and noisy shouts mixed together, and there was a faint sound of hurried footsteps.
Suddenly, a loud voice shouted: "You will strictly guard all the four gates in the east, west, north and south, and you must not let any suspicious people go. All merchants and people in the world will be interrogated, and once suspicious people are found, they will be detained and reported immediately! Everyone, go back Remember not to neglect your respective positions!”
A group of people responded in unison, and after receiving the order, they ran towards the four gates of east, west, north and south.
Liu Ruyan's mind froze and she felt quite surprised. She opened the window and looked around, only to see a seven-foot-tall man in purple standing under a thick ancient cypress in the courtyard dozens of meters away. He was about forty years old. , with slender cheeks and bright eyes, with long silver-white hair draped over her shoulders, holding a folding fan in her hand, shaking it leisurely. His eyes kept looking around.
Next to the man in purple stood a slim young man, holding a long sword with a black sheath on his chest, his face expressionless, looking cold and arrogant.
Lei Zhentian had difficulty moving, coughing and wheezing slightly from time to time. When he heard the noise outside, his heart tightened, and he couldn't help but ask: "Young Master Liu, who are those people outside?"
Liu Ruyan frowned and said: "It's a group of people on patrol. They look like people from the Flying Eagle Castle. The leader is a middle-aged man. From his tone, it seems that he is searching for someone!"
Lei Zhentian had a gloomy look on his face and nodded thoughtfully. He sighed quietly: "Those people are not here to find us, are they?"
Liu Ruyan pondered, shook his head, and said, "I can't say, but it doesn't look like he's coming for us. Let's not show up for now and just wait and see what happens!"
Just as he was talking, there was a knock on the door suddenly, "dong dong dong", and then Xu Feng's voice came: "Nephew Liu Xian, are you up?"
When Liu Ruyan heard Xu Feng's voice, she immediately relaxed and hurriedly opened the door latch: "Uncle Xu, please come in quickly." She welcomed Xu Feng into the door, but there was no trace of Luo Xiangxue. Liu Ruyan looked behind Xu Feng Looking out, he murmured: "Miss Luo, haven't you gotten up yet?"
Xu Feng said slowly: "Maybe she was too tired and fell into a deep sleep. Hey, it's really hard for her to run around with us! Let her sleep a little longer!"
As soon as he entered the door, he greeted Lei Zhentian: "Brother Lei, are you feeling better?"
Lei Zhentian smiled slightly and said: "Thanks to the care of Master Xu, I feel much better after taking the doctor's potion! Master Xu and everyone spared no effort to rescue me, Lei Mou is very grateful!"
Xu Feng said quietly: "It's just a trivial matter, it doesn't matter. You are brother Chu's friend, so naturally you are my friend!"
