"It's so late, why hasn't the Second Young Master made any movement?" At the door of the secret room, the two guards who had just handed over had returned. When they heard that Jin Jinghong had not come out, they were also confused.
"Yes... the second young master is very quick with his hands and feet. Even if he cleans everything up, it won't take so long, right?"
"How about we go down and have a look again?"
"Let's go!" The guard nodded and prepared to open the entrance to the secret room.
But the moment the gap on the ground just appeared, the guard suddenly felt another gust of cold wind blowing behind him, which made him shiver uncontrollably and sneeze several times in succession.
"It's really weird... Where did this evil wind come from?" The guard was very uncomfortable just now when he was blown by the cold wind. He thought he had contracted the cold, so he took advantage of his meal break to go find someone to check. Yes, the result is naturally no different. Unexpectedly, he had just returned and experienced the same feeling again.
"Speaking of evil winds...I suddenly remembered the rumors about this secret room. It is said that there are often unclean things here. Since your body is fine, maybe you...provoked something?" Another guard said in a deep voice. road.
"Really or not? Don't scare me!" The guard turned pale when he heard this and looked around cautiously.
"Of course..." The expression of another guard suddenly changed, and he laughed and said, "Of course it's a lie! Look at how fussy you are! You're wearing so little, it's no wonder you're not cold!"
"I'll settle accounts with you later..." The guard knew that he was being teased and glared at the latter. But before he finished speaking, he heard a subtle footsteps coming from the secret room behind him, and he was shaken and turned around to look. …
"Ah...Second Young Master..."
"It's me, what's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?" Jin Tiaojiang jumped up and saw that the man in front of him seemed to have seen a ghost, and he was also confused.
"No...no...it's just that we haven't seen the second young master coming out, so we two are a little worried." The guard glared at the snickering man beside him and explained quickly.
"Well, I just sorted it out by the way, and it did take a lot of time..." Jin Tiaojiang nodded nonchalantly, "I have something else to do, so I'll leave first!"
After saying that, Jin Tiaojiang turned around and left in a hurry...
…
With a creaking sound, Jin Tiaojiang's door was finally pushed open. The two guards looked over and saw that the table facing the door was empty. They secretly exclaimed that it was bad and walked towards the inside...
However, the two searched for a week but found no one, so they could only return to where they were and whisper to each other.
"How is it?" One of the guards asked urgently. The other guard did not speak, but shook his head with an ugly look on his face. He must have found nothing.
"Are you sure you have searched carefully?" the guard continued to ask.
"How can you be considered careful? After all, Mr. Jin is a big man. You can't let me search all the pots and pans, can you?" The other guard was also a little angry, but what he just said was "Ouch" He said: "I did search every room carefully, but I didn't dare to go near the bedroom..."
"When has this happened! Do you still care about this? What if the eldest son is really no longer here? Do you think King Jinpeng can still forgive us as lightly as last time?" The guard lowered his voice and whispered: "Since the eldest son, The Black Vulture Clan has been looking for something since he came back. He must never give up on this matter! If he really leaves him, it would be great if he can come back safe and sound, I'm afraid..."
When the man said this, he happened to walk to the door of the dormitory and said no more. The other guard also understood what he meant. The two nodded and opened the door with a bang.
"Young Master... um..." The guard who came in from behind was about to speak, but the guard in front covered his mouth. He followed the direction of the person in front and saw a sleeping figure lying on the bed with his head covered. .
The two of them breathed a sigh of relief as they listened to the snoring in their ears. Either because they were too nervous, or because the man's head was covered with a quilt, they were not aware of such a slight snoring just now.
"I'm just talking about the eldest son..."
“Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh”
The two guards did not dare to disturb the "elder master"'s rest, so they quickly retreated and left.
But just when the two of them had just retreated to the door, they saw a tremor on the bed, and the "eldest young master" actually lifted the quilt and jumped out of the bed with a scratch.
"Brother? You're finally back! But it's so hard to hold me back...huh? Why...you guys?" Jin Jinghong's face turned red from holding back his words, and the smile froze on his face just in the middle of speaking.
"Second Young Master? Second Young Master... when did you come? Have you seen the eldest Young Master?" The two guards quietly breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this man's words. They looked at each other, but each saw a trace of doubt in each other's eyes. They had obviously never left, so why did the second young master suddenly appear here?
"This... this..." Jin Jinghong actually woke up early, but he was afraid of being tested again, so he simply stayed in bed and waited for Jin Tiaojiang to return. He originally thought it was his eldest brother returning when he heard the creaking sound on the floor. Unexpectedly, two guards appeared in front of him. For a moment, he didn't know how to answer.
"Second Young Master! Do you know when the Eldest Young Master left? And where did he go?"
"Second Young Master, please answer truthfully...don't embarrass us..." the two guards begged urgently, almost crying.
According to the agreed time, Jin Tiaojiang should have returned, but by this time he still hadn't seen his eldest brother, and Jin Jinghong became a little anxious.
Although Jin Tiaojiang said it lightly when leaving, Jin Jinghong and Jin Tiaojiang were connected by blood after all, so he could naturally feel a trace of unnoticeable tension in the other person's heart. Although he promised to help his eldest brother cover his whereabouts, if something happened to the latter, he would probably blame himself extremely.
"I..." Jin Jinghong frowned and finally said firmly: "Brother, he is..."
"Jinghong...what's wrong?" At this moment, a faint voice suddenly came from the backyard.
After hearing the words, several people followed the sound and saw a figure in the direction of the backyard, holding a book and sitting quietly in the pavilion.
The two guards had clearly checked the backyard, but they did not see the eldest son. Although they didn't know how he appeared, since he was still here, everything was fine!
"First Young Master, Second Young Master. The meal time is almost over, so please go there in time to avoid starving yourself."
"Yes." Jin Tiaojiang in the pavilion did not raise his head, but simply waved his hand. When the two guards saw this, they quickly bowed and said goodbye, not daring to stay any longer...
"Brother! Are you...are you okay?" After the two guards closed the front door, Jin Jinghong hurried to the backyard pavilion and asked anxiously with concern.
"Those who know me are shocked..." Jin Tiaojiang smiled lightly, then his body went limp and he fainted...
…
Three months later.
"Brother! Have you ever thought about where this puts me? You...are you not making it difficult for your brother?" Jin Jinghong's eyes widened and he gritted his teeth and yelled.
"Is it difficult to do? If it's difficult to do, then don't do it!" Jin Tiaojiang said coldly with no expression on his face.
"Okay! This is what you said!" Jin Jinghong shouted angrily when he heard this, punched the stone mountain beside him to pieces, and then turned around and left without looking back.
Recently, Jin Tiaojiang and Jin Jinghong often had disputes, and the guards outside the door heard about them, but as subordinates, it was difficult to persuade them, so they could only pretend not to know anything. Unexpectedly, today's dispute actually lasted longer than usual. In the end, they only heard a loud bang and saw Jin Jinghong angrily running out.
"Second...Second Young Master..." The guard was about to call out when he saw this, but heard a cold snort coming from beside him.
"Hmph! He is a disrespectful person! Let him calm down!" Jin Tiaojiang's eyes were red and he glanced evilly at the guards at the door. "If you guys dare to talk nonsense, don't blame me for being rude!"
"My subordinates don't dare... eldest son!" When the guards heard this, their hearts tightened and they quickly lowered their heads.
"What are you still doing? Go clean up the mess! Bad luck!" Jin Tiaojiang scolded angrily and left the place angrily.
When he saw Jin Tiaojiang, he was about to leave. The guards behind him also looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
"Forget it... The eldest young master is very angry. Let's try not to provoke him..." One of the guards sighed and called the others to the gravel in the courtyard. "The relationship between the two young masters was clearly harmonious before. Just like a person, I don’t know what’s going on recently…”
"As far as I know, it seems that the second young master lost something in the secret room..."
"What is so important? It can turn these two against each other?"
"I don't know what the specific thing is...but I heard that the thing is not very precious. It was just that the eldest son felt that the second young master had neglected his duties, so he reprimanded him..."
"Shh! Work honestly! Don't talk nonsense!" Before the person could finish speaking, the person who spoke before shook his head. The latter nodded after hearing the words and then became quiet. Several people carefully cleaned up the tragic situation in front of them. Come.
…
Not far from the Jinpeng tribe's exit, a figure stared at the situation in front of him while bandaging the scratch on the back of his hand. Suddenly, the corner of his eye moved, he picked up a stone in his hand, and flicked it directly behind him.
"Pa!" As a muffled sound came, the flying stone was actually held in someone's hand, and then a figure walked out.
"Why are you following me?" The man bandaging the wound frowned and asked in a deep voice.
"Why can't I follow?" The latter's eyes flickered when he heard this, and he whispered: "Is there no other way...Brother!"
"Alas..." The man clenched his fists, and then sighed: "Jinghong...I'm sorry! I know you are worried about me, but you must have seen the situation of the Black Eagle Clan...especially recently, a force claiming to be the devil has descended from the sky. ! I’m afraid if this continues, not only the Jinpeng clan, but also the entire Yangtze..."
"...Even the entire Eastern Continent...will suffer!"
