Bai Yishu nodded in agreement.
The two got off the carriage and walked towards the shop selling rouge.
Zheng Zhizhi bought a box of rouge and handed it to Bai Yishu: "Master, can you try it for me?"
Bai Yizhu smiled and scratched her nose.
"You." He smiled, "I can't."
"Master, just give it a try." Zheng Zhizhi pulled his sleeve and acted coquettishly.
She looked cute and docile, like a docile kitten.
Bai Yishu's mind wandered.
He took the rouge and slowly moved closer to her face.
Zheng Zhizhi held his breath and lightly curled his eyelashes.
She smelled a faint masculine scent on him, mixed with the scent of her childhood sweetheart.
It was the smell of the person she loved.
She closed her eyes.
At this moment, she heard the screams of women outside.
Immediately, a wave of heat swept over her and she was thrown out.
Bai Yishu caught her.
Zheng Zhizhi opened her eyes and found that Bai Yishu hugged her and prevented her from falling.
Her heart was pounding.
"How could someone be so bold and come over here?" Bai Yishu scolded angrily.
Zheng Zhizhi was also frightened.
"I, I don't know..."
His voice had a hint of suppressed breath.
His eyes turned red.
"Master?" Zheng Zhizhi was panicking.
Bai Yishu suddenly put her down.
She fell to the floor, her legs numb.
"I'll take you back home first. I'll go back later..." Bai Yishu gritted his teeth.
His forehead was covered with sweat, his breathing was heavy, his eyes were blurred, and he seemed to have lost his mind.
He wants to kill someone.
He wants to kill someone!
"Master!" Zheng Zhizhi crawled over and held his hand, "Calm down..."
Her palms were cold.
However, when she touched Bai Yishu, his blood boiled violently, his muscles tightened, and every bone in his body trembled.
He held Zheng Zhizhi's hand firmly.
Zheng Zhizhi's hands are very slender, and his nails are rounded and delicately manicured.
Bai Yishu sucked the back of her hand hard.
Zheng Zhizhi trembled all over.
"Master, what's wrong with you? No matter what happens, please don't do anything to hurt yourself, okay?" Zheng Zhizhi tried to persuade him with tears in his eyes, "I beg you."
The redness in Bai Yishu's eyes faded.
He regained his clarity.
He looked at Zheng Zhizhi crying in his arms and felt extremely guilty: "I'm sorry."
He just almost lost control.
Fortunately, Zheng Zhizhi reminded him.
Otherwise, he might actually kill innocent people indiscriminately.
"Master, let's go home." Zheng Zhizhi sobbed.
Bai Yishu helped her up.
The two returned home through the back door without disturbing anyone.
As soon as he stepped into the courtyard, Bai Yishu paused, and a look of anger flashed in his eyes.
Zheng Zhizhi was also stunned.
In the yard, there was a corpse.
The corpse was wearing a blue shirt, which was stained red with blood, with its face turned upward and a dagger stuck in its chest.
"Master?" Zheng Zhizhi shouted, his voice trembling, "What's wrong with you?"
Bai Yishu slowly knelt down and pulled out the dagger.
The dagger was stained with blood.
"Who killed my senior brother?" Bai Yishu's voice was cold.
He stood up and took a few steps forward.
Zheng Zhizhi followed him.
The two came to the small attic in the corner of the yard.
There are various weapons inside.
Bai Yishu waved his hand and an exquisite silver sword appeared. He took it in his hand and turned around to walk out.
He was full of rage, and his eyes were filled with hatred and bloodlust.
Zheng Zhizhi turned pale with fright and hurriedly chased him out.
"Master!" She stopped him, "Master, who are you going to seek revenge from?!"
"Purple Green Sect!"
Zheng Zhizhi shook his head: "He is dead, and his body is too cold. Master, let's go..."
"No." Bai Yishu said, "Ziqing Sect provokes our Xianyun Sect, and my senior brother will die only if he protects the sect. I can't let him die in vain like this! He should be buried in peace."
Zheng Zhizhi's tears fell down: "Okay! I will accompany you to take revenge!"
She wiped away her tears.
Bai Yishu's mood has stabilized a lot.
"I'll change my clothes first." Bai Yi wrote.
He went inside to change clothes.
Zheng Zhizhi stood guard at the door of his room.
…
At Ziqing City...
From an alley not far away, a carriage was speeding towards him.
The carriage stopped at the entrance of the alley, and a beautiful woman stood at the shaft.
The beautiful woman was about twenty-six years old, with stunning beauty, but there was a shadow between her brows.
She got out of the carriage.
Behind her were two maids.
One of the maids helped her.
The two maids were both covered with veils, and their exposed eyes were as sharp as lightning as they scanned the surrounding environment.
"Miss, let's go quickly." Another maid urged.
The beauty nodded and quickened her pace. This person is Su Ziyan!
"Zi Yan, why are you here?"
Behind him, a man's deep voice suddenly came.
Su Ziyan was slightly surprised.
She turned and glanced.
An ordinary carriage with green curtains was parked at the entrance of the alley, and the curtain was lifted, revealing Bai Yishu's handsome profile.
He was wearing a dark blue embroidered robe and a jade belt around his waist, looking tall and handsome.
"Senior brother." Su Ziyan was slightly surprised, "Why are you here?"
Bai Yishu's lips were slightly pink, making his lips even more alluring.
Su Ziyan glanced at him and looked away to avoid falling in.
"I'm here to visit Junior Sister." Bai Yishu said, "I heard that Junior Sister was injured today, so I came here specially."
As he spoke, he also got out of the carriage, taking elegant steps.
He walked in no hurry.
Su Ziyan walked side by side with him: "I'm sorry to bother you, senior brother. If you don't mind me, senior brother, please come to my humble home to get together!"
The two of them talked all the way into the mansion at the end of the alley.
Bai Yishu personally helped her out of the sedan chair.
Zheng Zhizhi followed angrily all the way, glaring at Su Ziyan the whole time.
The maids and servants all retreated.
After entering the hall, Su Ziyan asked Bai Yishu to sit down.
"Senior brother, junior sister will give you some tea." She whispered softly.
After that, he brought Bai Yishu a cup of tea.
The tea is clear, mist rises, and the aroma is thick and aromatic.
When she handed the tea, she deliberately stretched out her right hand and wore a jade bracelet on her tender and white wrist.
Bai Yishu took the tea cup.
He lowered his eyes and drank tea.
His eyes passed over her delicate fingers, and then he raised his eyes to look at her.
Su Ziyan was still smiling: "Senior brother, does this tea suit your appetite?"
Bai Yishu nodded.
"If you like it, drink more. I still have it here." Su Ziyan added, "Master, try this sweet-scented osmanthus cake. It's newly developed by the cook and it tastes sweet. Senior brother, you might as well try it again."
She personally picked up a piece of osmanthus cake and handed it to Bai Yishu.
Bai Yishu opened his mouth and ate.
He eats slowly.
Every move he made was elegant and graceful, which made Su Ziyan's heart beat.
His appearance made Su Ziyan even more confused.
"Senior brother, what's wrong with you?" Su Ziyan asked.
"It's okay." Bai Yishu said, "I heard that your master went to our Xianyun Sect!"
"Oh, really?" Su Ziyan answered vaguely.
"Zi Yan, have you met your great uncle?" Bai Yishu asked again, "Where is he now?"
Su Ziyan's heart skipped a beat.
At this time, Uncle Shi must be sleeping.
Why did Bai Yishu come here and ask about him?
Did he know something?
"Uncle, he is sleeping..."
"Oh? Really! My senior brother died in the yard, but it was your uncle's masterpiece!" Bai Yishu asked coldly.
Zheng Zhizhi is ready with a long sword in his hand.
Su Ziyan was shocked: "How is it possible? Uncle Grandmaster said that he would come to Xianyun Sect to discuss with you. How could he kill senior brother!"
"Ha!" Bai Yishu sneered, "Zi Yan, do you not believe what my senior brother said?"
His expression became serious and majestic.
"Senior brother, please calm down." Su Ziyan quickly apologized, "I really don't know, I just think it's a rumor."
"Rumors?" Bai Yishu asked, "Do you think senior brother will lie?"
Su Ziyan shook her head and said: "Of course not! Senior brother has a gentleman's magnanimous character and absolutely disdains lying."
"If that's the case, why don't you dare to admit it?"
"Senior brother has misunderstood. Junior sister is afraid of unjustly accusing our uncle." Su Ziyan said, "He is quite old and weak. If we unjustly accuse him, wouldn't we kill him?"
What she said was reasonable.
Bai Yishu still stared at her: "Then do you dare to tell me where your great uncle is?"
Su Ziyan bit her lip.
She hesitated for a moment.
"I don't know. He is not allowed to tell others." She lowered her head and said, "My uncle said that my martial arts practice is too shallow and I need to practice my martial arts diligently. My uncle has been hiding in the world all year round and does not come out easily..."
Her explanations were half true and half false.
"Humph!" Bai Yishu interrupted her coldly, "You don't want to tell me where my uncle is! Do you?"
Su Ziyan was exposed, her face turned pale, and her eye circles suddenly turned red.
She was so wronged that she looked at Bai Yishu with tears in her eyes.
Bai Yishu showed no pity at all and instead approached her.
"Zi Yan, why are you doing this? You were never like this before." He murmured, like a sigh and a mockery.
His tone was gentle, but Su Ziyan clearly felt his hostility, even disgust.
Her whole body trembled.
"Senior brother..." She murmured, tears rolling down her face, "Senior brother, I really don't know."
"Hmph! If he doesn't come to the top of the Hengshan Mountain tomorrow! I will wipe out the Ziqing Sect!"
Bai Yishu got angry and walked away with Zheng Zhizhi!
Su Ziyan was stunned.
A bit of surprise and shock flashed across her face.
She had never seen her senior brother so out of control.
"He actually wants to wipe out my Ziqing Sect?" Su Ziyan said bitterly in her heart.
"Girl, what's going on?" A maid next to her came up and asked.
Su Ziyan wiped away the tears on her face and forced a smile to the maid: "It's okay, I just miss my family."
The maid didn't ask any questions and stayed with her silently.
Su Ziyan was restless.
She was waiting for an opportunity to deliver the message.
Bai Yishu had already noticed something was wrong.
This time, I'm afraid I can't hide it.
She couldn't help but become anxious.
*****
The next day, when the sky was dark, Bai Yishu took Zheng Zhizhi on horseback, left the inn, and galloped towards the south gate.
There are guards at the south gate, responsible for maintaining order and preventing bandits from escaping.
Bai Yishu arrived at the South City Gate.
The garrison officer has already been replaced.
He glanced at Bai Yishu, frowned and asked, "Who are you looking for?"
"Let us out?" Bai Yishu got straight to the point and went straight to the point.
The defense officer looked at him suspiciously.
Finally, he had the south city gate opened.
Bai Yishu and the others got on their horses, raised their whips and galloped away.
***
A dreamless night, the morning light broke through the window.
Su Ziyan opened her eyes and saw an old man standing in front of the bed.
The old man's beard and hair are all white.
Looks kind and kind.
"Uncle." Su Ziyan quickly stood up and saluted respectfully.
This is her great uncle Li Yunxiao.
A man in his fifties, energetic and tall.
"Yeah." Li Yunxiao nodded slightly, "Did you have a good rest last night?"
"Very good. Thank you, uncle, for your concern."
"Your senior brother came to see you last night." Li Yunxiao said, "What did he come to do?"
Su Ziyan hesitated slightly.
"Did he mention me to you?" Li Yunxiao continued to ask.
Su Ziyan nodded hurriedly.
"What did he say?" Li Yunxiao asked.
Su Ziyan added more details to the scene last night.
Her account is detailed.
She didn't lie either, so after hearing this, Li Yunxiao's expression was calm and there was no sign of anger.
"He said it was me who killed your senior brother?" Li Yunxiao asked again.
"Yes." Su Ziyan nodded, "Senior Brother died in the yard. At that time, he knew that you were the only one who had ever been to Xianyun Sect."
Li Yunxiao pondered for a long time.
After a while, he suddenly laughed.
He touched his beard and said: "What is supposed to come will always come!".
He arrived at the top of Hengshan Mountain as promised, only to see Bai Yishu and Zheng Zhizhi already waiting there.
Both of them were wearing black outfits with purple bamboo embroidered on their lapels, which was a symbol of their identity.
Li Yunxiao's eyes fell on Zheng Zhizhi.
He looked at Zheng Zhizhi carefully.
Zheng Zhizhi looked dull and his eyes were empty.
"What's your name?" Li Yunxiao asked, his tone gentle, like a kind old grandfather.
Zheng Zhizhi replied: "My surname is Zheng, which is a single word."
"Zheng Zhizhi?" Li Yunxiao asked again.
Zheng Zhidao: "Yeah."
Li Yunxiao touched his beard again.
His eyes were narrowed and shining, as if he wanted to see through Zheng Zhizhi.
"Who is your master?" He suddenly asked again.
Zheng Zhizhi remained expressionless and replied: "Can't you see? Bai Yishu is my master!" Zheng Zhizhi rolled his eyes at him. This murderer was talking so much nonsense!
"Huh! Uncle, long time no see!" Bai Yishu said coldly.
Li Yunxiao stopped smiling and regained his composure.
"My little friend, how come you have the leisure to climb to the top of Hengshan Mountain today?" Li Yunxiao said with a smile.
He remained calm and spoke first.
"I would like to ask my teacher uncle, why did you frame my senior brother!" Bai Yishu asked sharply.
Li Yunxiao laughed and said, "Have I ever framed your senior brother? My friend, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say anything random."
"Uncle, are you still unwilling to admit it?" Bai Yishu said coldly.
His eyes were deep and dark, with a chilling pressure.
Li Yunxiao's smile gradually stiffened, and the muscles in the corners of his eyes twitched.
"I said no, it means no." He denied firmly, leaving no room for Bai Yishu.
He changed the subject and said: "After the competition that day, your senior brother's own blood spurted to death. What does that have to do with me? My little friend, don't spit on others!"
Uncle Master, you are still quibbling! Bai Yishu said coldly, "My disciple saw you kill your senior brother with your own eyes." It's useless for you to deny it! "
"I don't understand what you said." Li Yunxiao said.
"Are you unwilling to admit it?" Bai Yishu pressed forward step by step, "I can now summon my disciples and ask them to testify. Can you plead guilty?"
Li Yunxiao sneered.
He was about to speak when suddenly a gust of wind blew away the mist in the forest.
The leaves in the forest rustle.
Bai Yishu raised his eyes warily and looked in a certain direction in the forest.
A girl came out of the forest.
"Zi Yan!" Bai Yishu's pupils shrank sharply.
He quickly drew his sword and stood in front of Zheng Zhizhi, protecting her.
Zheng Zhizhi looked confused.
