Jinguan City, in the alley.
Leng Lingfeng was a little restless in the room.
He came here as soon as the battle between the Leng family and the Royal Forest Camp began, and his teacher was uncharacteristically not reading a book today. Instead, he asked Leng Lingfeng to sit next to him, brewed a pot of tea, and quietly Quietly looking at the drifting heavy rain outside.
Looking at the heavy rain outside the window, Leng Lingfeng's face was full of anxiety.
On the contrary, his teacher looked calm.
The two of them sat quietly like this for a long time without saying anything. The teacher would take a sip of tea from time to time, then look out the window, and tap his fingers on the table twice every once in a while. His expression was even more penetrating. Then he smiled mysteriously.
The rain gradually stopped.
Seeing that the rain was getting lighter and lighter, the teacher finally put down his tea bowl and said with emotion: "It should be over."
Leng Lingfeng remained silent.
The teacher smiled and continued: "Lu Zhi should have succeeded. I guess I didn't make a mistake. Among the three generations of the Lu family, Lu Zhi is indeed an extremely talented person. More importantly, he is very thoughtful and can wait until Today, this endurance is really commendable.”
In the final outcome of this battle, everything went as he expected.
The teacher stood up silently and walked to the door step by step. After crossing the threshold, he looked at the raindrops dripping from the beams and smiled with emotion: "They all thought they had won, but everything is under my control. Ling Feng , do you think they really won?"
Leng Lingfeng stood up, clasped his fists and said softly: "The students don't think so."
At this point, the teacher burst out laughing.
Immediately afterwards, the teacher's next move shocked Leng Lingfeng.
I saw him walking out of the small courtyard step by step and coming outside.
In Leng Lingfeng's impression, his teacher had never stepped even half a step out of the courtyard, but now that he had walked out, it was undoubtedly a sign that he was also ready to take action.
The teacher who walked to the door took a deep breath of the air after the rain and said with a smile: "It's been a long time since I saw this Jinguan City. It's time to go out for a walk."
At this moment, another footsteps sounded in the alley.
Leng Lingfeng followed the footsteps and was shocked when he saw the source of the footsteps.
Leng Lingfeng walked forward and asked in disbelief, "Is it you?"
The visitor is none other than Leng Qingqiu!
"I have met my third uncle." Leng Qingqiu clasped his fists slightly toward Leng Lingfeng, then saluted the teacher again and said, "I have met my second grandfather."
The second grandfather that Leng Qingqiu mentioned was actually from Leng Lingfeng's father's generation in terms of seniority.
The previous generation of the Leng family produced two geniuses.
One was the previous head of the Leng family, Leng Weidong. Unfortunately, he was jealous of talents. Leng Weidong just passed middle age and suffered from an incurable disease. Although he suppressed the disease with his martial arts, he finally It still took no time, and he passed away, leaving a lot of mess behind.
This is one of the reasons why the Leng family had internal strife in the past.
As for the internal fighting within the family, to put it simply, the family was divided into two different factions.
One group believed that after the previous head of the family passed away, the son of the head of the family should naturally take over the position of the head of the family. This was also in line with the previous rules of the Leng family, and the eldest son should be the head of the family.
The other group believes that the third and fourth sons of the Leng family in the previous generation were not great, but the second son is also an incredible genius, and the second son should take over as the head of the family.
But the rules of the Leng family have been there for generations, and it has never been heard that the second child can take the position of the head of the family, so the head of the Leng family will have the advantage in that internal fight.
Of course, Lu's support at the time was indispensable behind this.
As for the second child, Leng Weinan, after the failure of the internal fight, he disappeared as if he had evaporated from the world.
The Leng family had sent people to search, but after several searches yielded no results, they decided that Leng Weinan should have fled Xishu and stopped caring about the follow-up of the matter.
But Leng Weinan played a trick of darkness with the Leng family.
Over the years, he has been hiding in this small alley in Xishu and has never moved.
If Patriarch Leng came to find him in person, he might still have a chance to find out. However, Patriarch Leng had a lot of things to do and naturally had no time to take care of Leng Weinan, so he let Leng Weinan hide it until today.
"Ling Feng, the reason why I have been hiding for so many years and training you and Qingqiu at the same time is that one day I can return to Leng Mansion openly and sit in that position."
Leng Weinan's expression suddenly darkened, and he stared at Leng Lingfeng and asked, "Are you willing to help me?"
Leng Lingfeng tugged at the corners of his lips. It was difficult to ride a tiger at this time.
Seeing Leng Lingfeng hesitate for a moment, Leng Weinan didn't get angry. He just touched his pocket and put a dagger on the ground.
Leng Lingfeng looked at the dagger, opened his mouth slightly, then raised his eyes to look at Leng Weinan, lost in thought.
Leng Weinan said: "Ling Tian's realm may not be higher than yours. If you are willing to help me, use this dagger to kill him."
"Don't let me down, Ling Feng."
Before Leng Lingfeng could respond, Leng Qingqiu petitioned from the side: "Second uncle, this junior is willing to help third uncle."
Leng Weinan looked at Leng Qingqiu with some doubts, but thought about it carefully before nodding: "It would be safer if you help from the side, but... your third uncle seems to be a little hesitant."
Leng Lingfeng was indeed hesitant.
Let's not talk about whether he can kill Leng Lingtian so easily. As a member of the Secret Investigation Department, he has been lurking next to Leng Weinan. There are some things that he cannot agree to too hastily.
After all, Leng Weinan has been lurking for so long, and Leng Lingfeng has never told anyone about the matter, which is enough to show that Leng Weinan has more than just the position of the head of the family.
There is a big mystery behind him. m.
As for what this mystery is, Leng Lingfeng is still slowly digging into it, and recently he finally got some clues.
Suddenly, Leng Lingfeng noticed that Leng Qingqiu opposite him gave him a wink.
That look seemed to be urging Leng Lingfeng to agree quickly.
Leng Lingfeng frowned, took a deep breath for the last time, walked forward and bent down to pick up the dagger, cupped his fist and said, "Student is willing."
Leng Weinan finally smiled and walked back to the courtyard step by step.
"I'm here waiting for your good news."
…
…
Leng Lingfeng and Leng Qingqiu walked out of the alley together.
As soon as he came out of the alley, Leng Lingfeng immediately looked at Leng Qingqiu and asked, "What did your eyes mean at that time?"
Leng Qingqiu said calmly: "I just want my third uncle to pick up the dagger quickly. If my second grandfather discovers your abnormality, will my third uncle really come out alive?"
Leng Lingfeng kept frowning and asked, "Did you find something?"
Leng Qingqiu said in a calm tone: "I don't ask about third uncle's affairs, and third uncle doesn't ask about my affairs, but there is one thing that third uncle should know very well. Neither you nor I are really on the side of my second grandfather."
Immediately, Leng Qingqiu changed the subject and said: "But the second grandfather must also know this. To the second grandfather, we are just a good chess piece, which can be thrown away after use."
Leng Lingfeng was speechless.
It is true that everything Leng Qingqiu said is true.
Leng Lingfeng knew exactly what kind of person Leng Weinan was.
Leng Weinan had accepted him as a student since he could remember when he was a child, and the two of them had always treated him as teacher and student. This was by no means a sign of Leng Weinan's kindness, but that he knew the position of the head of the family from early on and wanted to rely on his legitimacy. Means, he can't sit on it.
That is to say, when Leng Weidong was still serving as the head of the family, Leng Weinan had already started his own plan.
Such people are the most terrifying people.
Obviously, it took so long just for the position of a family head, but it was unnecessary.
Leng Qingqiu said: "These days, I will always follow you. Since we promised our second grandfather, we must also do it."
Leng Lingfeng frowned and asked, "Are you really planning to kill someone?"
Leng Qingqiu said calmly: "If we don't kill anyone, we will be the ones who die."
Looking at Leng Qingqiu's expression, Leng Lingfeng felt a sense of suffocation.
Why she could maintain such calmness in such a situation, Leng Lingfeng couldn't figure it out.
The two stopped talking and walked slowly towards the street.
…
…
Gu Xiaotian returned to the courtyard.
Then he locked himself in the room alone.
During the process, Yu Huan tried to knock on the door several times to persuade Gu Xiaotian, but was stopped by Xu Ji.
Xu Ji looked at the locked room with a trace of worry in his eyes, but he still blocked the person who wanted to persuade Gu Xiaotian from the door.
At this time, no matter who tries to persuade him, it may not be effective. He can only let him come out on his own.
As the days passed, Leng Lingtian was exactly the same as Leng Weinan back then, as if he had evaporated and disappeared into Jinguan City.
Leng Qingxia was in a worse situation. Leng Lingtian did not take Leng Qingxia with him when he disappeared. So when Lu took over the position of the head of the family, he quickly caught Leng Qingxia and got rid of him.
Although Lu Zhi had previously promised Leng Lingtian not to kill his wife and children, it was just words. Lu Zhi also adhered to the principle of eradicating the roots.
As for Mrs. Sun, no one knows her whereabouts.
The only thing that is certain is that Leng Lingtian did not take Mrs. Sun with him when he left.
The Lu family has been clearing out the remnants of the Leng family these days. Who should be killed and who should be arrested? The Lu family has already made plans in this regard.
These days, people in Jinguan City are also panicking. After all, most people in Jinguan City are actually closely related to the Leng family, and they are afraid that they will be harmed by this incident.
After all, several people who were close to the Leng family had also suffered murderous attacks one after another.
Of course, the Lu family did not do things too absolutely. Those who were killed were just because they could not change their minds. These people were of no use to the Lu family. It was not wrong to kill them to avoid future troubles.
Nowadays, the new king of Jinguan City has just been established, and there are many things to do. Moreover, they have nothing to do with Gu Xiaotian, so naturally they will not come to trouble Gu Xiaotian.
From the outside, Jinguan City looks peaceful.
The autumn rain before was as if it had never rained before.
It has been a week since Gu Xiaotian locked himself in the room, and now even Xu Ji was a little worried.
These days, he has been standing outside the room, but there is no movement inside, which makes people suspicious.
Yu Huan asked: "How about you let me knock on the door and ask about Commander Gu?"
To knock or not to knock.
Xu Ji couldn't make up his mind.
"You are not allowed to move forward. If you take a step forward, I will take action!"
Suddenly, there was a sound from the soldiers guarding the gate.
Yu Huan and Xu Ji quickly came outside to check.
There was a woman standing at the door, her face covered by tulle, and she stood quietly outside the door.
When she saw Yu Huan and Xu Ji coming out, the woman took off her gauze.
The woman asked with a smile: "Why don't you let me knock on this door?"
Some people died, but not completely...
