Zheng Ji quickly dodged, his steps inevitably slowing down for a moment.
A gust of wind came from behind, and she quickly avoided it, like a willow blowing in the wind, and then stopped.
She was looking in a certain direction, her heart already highly nervous and alert, but her posture and movements seemed to be becoming more and more calm.
Immediately, a person slowly walked out from the darkness, and the dim candlelight on the street vaguely reflected his appearance.
I saw that he had gray hair on his temples, a fair face, and a smiling face. He looked... extremely beautiful, the kind of beauty that could not be distinguished from male or female.
For a moment, I couldn't tell his true age.
He put his hands behind his back, as if taking a leisurely stroll, slowly approached Zheng Ji, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency, you are so interested. Are you still visiting Jingzhao so late?"
As he moved around, his dark green clothes shone with slivers of silver light, which turned out to be in the shape of flowers!
One step at a time, flowers bloom in the dark night, making people wonder if they are in the human world.
Zheng Ji knew him.
This person's name is Wei Yan. He once served as a prison servant. He is good at torture and even better at... killing people.
It is said that he has a unique skill. Whether it is torture or murder, the wounds on the prisoner's body are connected together like a delicate and blooming peach blossom.
Therefore, this person is also called "Peach Blossom".
When Fengju returned from Hedong, Zheng Ji had expected that there would be someone accompanying him, but unexpectedly it was Wei Yan.
With Wei Yan's ability, it was impossible for him to chase her for two streets before catching up. Most likely, he didn't want to cause any commotion on Xuanping Street.
Her heart became more and more solemn, and she deliberately laughed in a hoarse voice: "You are just passing by, why bother chasing after me? Master Taohua."
As soon as the word "peach blossom" came out, the casual smile on Wei Yan's face froze.
He was stunned for a moment, and then his murderous intent surged.
However, what Zheng Ji was looking for was his hesitation at that moment. She threw a handful of medicinal powder at Wei Yan with lightning speed, then took a step back and fired a pill into the air with a "thud" sound. Ringing arrow.
The high-pitched sound of arrows was extremely obvious in the quiet night, and the footsteps of the Night Guard could be heard not far away.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zheng Ji quickly took another step, and used the Qing Gong mental method he learned from Du Fengju to the extreme. His whole body was like an eagle, sliding forward at great speed.
She didn't have time to look back. She tried her best to adjust her breath, and as she moved, another loud arrow was fired.
Now, she can't compete with Wei Yan. If she wants to escape from him, she has to attract everyone's attention.
Wei Yan showed up two streets away, which meant that he didn't want to appear in front of others and didn't want people to know that he was related to the Taifu Mansion.
So, Wei Yan will stop.
Sure enough, as the fourth sounding arrow rose, the steps that had been holding her tightly slowed down.
Zheng Ji was overjoyed, but he didn't dare to stop at all, nor did he dare to go straight to Princess Changding's mansion. He had to go around various streets in Dongshi, and fired a few loud arrows from time to time.
She single-handedly disturbed half of Beijing.
Gradually, the footsteps of the Night Guard became more and more frequent, the warning calls became more and more frequent, and the tyrannical murderous aura behind him finally stopped.
It wasn't until the footsteps chasing her stopped completely that she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but the speed still continued.
Like a night falcon, she circled several times before finally heading towards Princess Changding's Mansion.
It wasn't until she flew into the house that she felt completely relieved, and at this time, her back was covered in cold sweat.
She actually escaped from Wei Yan!
~~~
Du Fengju was sitting in the room, his half-dry black hair spread casually, and his expression... was unrecognizable.
Only a pair of eyes are black and shining, like still water running deep.
Wei Yan, who was originally chasing Zheng Ji, appeared quietly, bent down and replied: "Sir, I have lost my pursuit."
"Um?"
Du Fengju was really surprised. He wasn't angry, he was just curious: "You can even lose it if you chase it yourself?"
He knew that Jingzhao was a crouching dragon and a hidden tiger, but this was outrageous.
How many people in the Dade Dynasty can escape from Wei Yan? I met one tonight!
who's that person?
Du Fengju never expected that someone would look at him when he opened the window for ventilation because he thought there was bath vapor in the room.
If it weren't for that slight gasp, he wouldn't have been able to discover that person's existence.
That person was here just for him, he could feel it.
When did that person appear? He felt uncomfortable when he thought that he had taken a shower and changed clothes earlier.
Fortunately, he was thick-skinned and still looked calm and steady.
Wei Yanzheng was in a state of shock and did not notice his discomfort.
He suppressed his emotions and immediately replied: "Sir, that person's martial arts is far inferior to that of my subordinate. This time it was my subordinate's mistake. That person called me... Master Peach Blossom."
Wei Yan could no longer describe how her heart was shaken when she heard this title.
If you can call him this, you must be familiar with his origins.
However, the people who knew about his past were either very close to him and are now staying with the young master; or they were all dead, the kind that had long since rotted into the ground.
There is no third possibility.
However, that person smiled and called him "Master Peach Blossom", which was indeed true.
That's why he was stunned for a moment and was taken advantage of.
However, this was not the real reason that made him slow down.
Wei Yan calmed down, looked at Du Fengju, and said in a low voice: "Master, that person's moves are stagnant and his internal strength is not strong, but... he uses Lord Lu's footwork technique."
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the room became stagnant, and even Liu Feng stopped moving.
Du Fengju's expression calmed down and he asked slowly: "Are you sure?"
"It's true, there's nothing wrong with it."
He has followed Master Lu for many years, and he will not be able to misunderstand this. This is the real reason why he is so frightened.
Shen Zhenhun shook, already at a disadvantage, no matter how hard he chased, he couldn't catch up.
In addition, the Xiaowei had been alerted, so he had to give up tracking.
Du Fengju lowered his eyes and thought deeply, then shook his head and said: "Impossible!"
How is this possible that the adoptive father's footsteps and thoughts appear in Jingzhao?
If Wei Yan hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have thought it was possible.
Master Lu's martial arts secrets have been taught to the young master. Apart from the young master, no other person in the world will know about Master Lu's martial arts.
But it is absolutely true that the man used Master Lu's footsteps and mental skills to escape.
Du Fengju knew that Wei Yan would not be wrong, but he really thought it was impossible.
Things are getting weird, there must be something wrong!
He thought about it again and again, and finally said: "That person came for me. Don't worry, after the first time, he will definitely come for the second time."
His bright black eyes looked at Wei Yan, and there was no need to say more.
Wei Yan understood and smiled slowly, so beautiful that it was breathtaking.
"Sir, there won't be a second time."
Once is enough. If that person appears again, it will be impossible to escape from him again.
Who is that person?
Wei Yan thought hard and recalled the situation at that time.
The man was covered with a black scarf, only showing a pair of slender eyes, and his figure was slightly thin, which did not match his speed and reaction.
As for the smell... there was a fishy smell on that person's body. Could it be that this person was in and out of restaurants and fish stalls?
