The young man felt that he had already healed his wounds, so how could he let him ride a donkey, so he said, "How is this allowed?"

Zhu Mingyu replied, "You're welcome, you are injured."

Then he turned over on the donkey and murmured: "Brother Donkey, look at the bad fate between us. You can't do it without riding." Then he said loudly: "Miss Li, let's go to Baiying Villa quickly and follow the official road." Just walk forward, even if it’s a long way around, you can get there in just half a day.”

Hu Bo asked Li Fenglan in a low voice: "Miss, who is this young master?"

Li Fenglan recounted what had just happened, but only how they met, not the fact that they were two minds.

Just as Li Fenglan finished speaking, the young man suddenly said: "Hey, what's your name?"

Li Fenglan knew that the naughty one was coming, so she had no choice but to reply: "My name is Li Fenglan."

Amber smiled and said, "My name is Amber."

Zhu Mingyuxin said: I didn’t even ask you. But Amber had already answered, and Zhu Mingyu had no choice but to follow suit: "Poverty-minded Zhu Mingyu."

Who would have thought that the young man would say inhumanely: "I didn't ask you two."

Li Fenglan was angry: "I'm asking you, can you have a better temper? It was the injury someone showed you just now."

"Huh, I didn't ask him."

"Change it back for me."

"That's one thing."

"Stop playing tricks on me. Let me put it another way. I won't allow you to come out in the future. You can't come out!"

"This! This counts as five!"

"Five is five!"

"Okay, you wait." The boy closed his eyes after saying that.

Li Fenglan said hurriedly: "Wait a minute, what's your name? If you forget, just give it to yourself."

"My name is Chenwu, his name is Muyun, do you have any other questions?"

"No, let him come out."

The young man closed his eyes. After a while, he suddenly opened his eyes. There was some confusion in his eyes, and he almost fell off the horse.

The conversation that just happened made Amber and Zhu Mingyu feel incredible. He was a very reasonable person in the woods, but why did he say something so uneducated when he got on the horse? It's like a different person.

Mu Yun looked around blankly, and when he saw other people looking at him, he understood what happened and said sheepishly: "There is something wrong with my head, and sometimes another person will come out."

Zhu Mingyu became enlightened and said, "Pindao has heard of this disease. He may suffer from this condition if he has a head injury."

Li Fenglan asked: "Is there any cure?"

"It varies from person to person. Some people can recover in three days, while some people...can't recover in a lifetime."

This question was somewhat heavy, so Li Fenglan quickly changed the subject: "Mr. Muyun, let's get to know each other again. My name is Li Fenglan."

Amber, who still didn't understand the situation, smiled and said, "My name is Amber."

Zhu Mingyu had no choice but to say, "Ignorant Zhu Mingyu."



After driving for several days, Bai Boju finally arrived at the Thorn Gate station. At the foot of the mountain, many martial arts people came to express their condolences. In the crowd, Bai Boju recognized a man. This man was dressed in brocade clothes and a crown of jade. He looked like a rich man, but his face was pale and he seemed to be suffering from some illness. He was followed by several people.

"Brother Yang!" Bai Boju shouted.

This person is Yang Fan from the Thorn Clan, and he is very valued by Qiao Fei.

The man turned around, saw Bai Boju, and greeted him with a smile.

"Brother Bai, we haven't seen each other for a long time." Yang Fan greeted him politely.

Bai Boju jumped off his horse, raised his hands and said, "Old Sect Master Qiao passed away unfortunately. Brother Yang, I send you my condolences."

"Thank you very much. Let me introduce you to you," Yang Fan introduced to the people around him, "This is Bai Boju, the eldest son of the Bai family in Luoyang."

After meeting and saluting several people, Yang Fan said, "Brother Bai, let's go up the mountain together."

Walk all the way to the mountain gate.

Bai Boju met Yang Fan when he was in the world two years ago, and they had a bit of a friendship. The two of them were chatting while going up the mountain.

"A few of us went to Songshan Mountain to participate in the martial arts competition under the orders of the old sect master Qiao. Who knew that this departure would actually mean goodbye forever."

Bai Boju said: "The old sect leader helped the Bai family back then, and the Bai family has always been grateful. Unfortunately, the old sect leader left before he could repay his kindness."

Yang Fan asked: "Brother Bai, I would like to ask, how much does the Bai family... know about the old sect leader's poisoning?"

Bai Boju shook his head and replied: "Brother Yang, our Bai family has only known superficial things about Jianghu affairs in recent years. If they go too deep... we don't know either."

"I'm talking too much, and it's embarrassing for Brother Bai."

"Brother Yang, you're welcome. The Bai family will definitely try their best to help Thorn Sect find the murderer."

At this point, Yangfan suddenly coughed violently, took out a handkerchief from his arms and covered his mouth.

Yang Fan has suffered from tuberculosis since he was a child, and he only practices martial arts to keep fit. He has good understanding and good skills, and has few opponents at a young age. Unfortunately, everyone in the world knows that Yang Fan will not live long.

Bai Boju said: "I heard that the old sect leader had just passed away, so I chose a new sect leader."

Yang Fan shook his head: "I have never seen this new sect leader, and there are no rumors about her in the world."

"A few days ago, a group of rabble-rousers from the Caiyun Hui and the Wuhuo Gang besieged the Thorn Gate. Your sect leader killed more than twenty of their masters alone. Your new sect leader is very skilled in martial arts."

Yang Fan nodded and said, "Yes, he is very capable."

While they were talking, the two of them had already arrived outside the gate of Thorny Gate Mountain. The entire Thorn Gate is filled with sadness, the elegiac couplets on the gate, the soul-calling flags inside the gate, and the Thorn Gate disciples walking back and forth wearing sackcloth and mourning. This funeral was extremely sad and honorable.

The two said goodbye at the door. Yang Fan and others were insiders and entered the villa directly. Bai Boju was a guest, and he handed over his famous assassination at the door before entering.

Today is the day of Qiao Fei's burial. Bai Boju arrived relatively late. When he entered, the Thorny Gate Square was already crowded with people. By the time he laid incense, it was already noon and the funeral was about to begin.

The subsequent process is similar to other places, but since Qiao Fei has no heirs, the role of filial son is filled by the new sect leader.

Bai Boju saw Agarwood, the new owner of Thorns Sect, from a distance.

Chen Xiangzhi was wearing a plain white mourning dress. She knelt in front of the mourning hall, with no expression on her face. She didn't seem particularly sad.

At noon, the three-way drum sounds and the spirit begins to rise. The large army that came for the funeral followed the people from the Thorn Gate all the way to the back mountain, where the coffin was buried and everyone returned to the Thorn Gate.

In the main square, the members of the Thorn Sect had already set up a high platform, and Agarwood Zhi slowly walked up. As she stood still on the high platform, the originally noisy crowd fell silent.

Agarwood cupped her fists in all directions and said, "The old sect master has passed away. Thanks to your love, I came to see the old sect master on his last journey. The little girl Xiangzhi thanked you all on behalf of the old sect master."

After saying that, he bowed deeply. Bai Boju is not good at thinking about people. He always relies on first impressions. In his eyes, Chen Xiangzhi is quite beautiful. She is not a lady like his sister, nor is she a natural beauty like Li Fenglan. Who does she look like? She doesn't look like anyone, or she doesn't look like a woman, but she doesn't look like a man either.

For most men, beautiful women turn them on. But Agarwood is different. She is beautiful, but no one dares to take the initiative to like her. She is too cold and arrogant, and she always carries the pressure of a superior. Even when meeting her for the first time, one can see the coldness and cruelty hidden deep in her eyes that she doesn't want others to see.

Chen Xiangzhi said a lot of scene words, and finally finished his speech with the words "Please come to the back hall for dinner."

Bai Boju felt bored. The original plan was for Bai Zhonglian to come to express condolences this time. Bai Zhonglian was more suitable for this kind of social occasion. By chance, Li Fenglan and his party arrived in Luoyang. They had something to discuss at home, so they had to send him, an idler, to attend the funeral.

Not many people came to the back hall to eat. Some people wanted to meet the new sect leader of the Thorn Sect, but when they learned that the sect leader would not see guests today, they had no choice but to leave angrily. Bai Boju originally wanted to leave, but was stopped by a middle-aged man wearing a feather fan and silk scarf.

"Young Master, is this Bai Boju?" the middle-aged man smiled.

"It's the junior."

The middle-aged man raised his hands and said, "I am the master of the Thorn Sect, Feng Yao."

Feng Yao is still very famous in the world, and he is the main one who makes suggestions in the Thorns Sect. When Qiao Fei was seriously ill, he was also taking care of the Thorn Gate.

"I've met Senior Feng."

Feng Yao lowered his voice: "Master Bai, you can go to the back hall to eat first."

"I still have some things to deal with at home, so I won't bother you."

"There's no rush," Feng Yao grabbed Bai Boju, "My sect leader has something to discuss with the eldest son."



After traveling all morning, Li Fenglan and her party finally arrived at Baiying Villa.

Baiying Villa is located at the foot of Yingzui Mountain. There are no homes within a dozen miles, and the environment is very quiet. Looking from a distance, there is only one villa in the mountainous area of ​​Nuo Da.

Zhu Mingyu went to call the door and knocked the door knocker a few times. The door opened and a boy stuck his head out.

"Can you please find..." At this point, after seeing Zhu Mingyu's face clearly, the boy closed the door with a bang and shouted inside the door: "Taoist Master Zhu! My uncle said! No money!"

Zhu Mingyu was embarrassed and wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in. There were three outsiders behind him. This was too embarrassing.

Zhu Mingyu said patiently: "No... I'm not here to ask for money."

"Nothing else!"

"You kid...let my senior brother come out."

"My uncle said he was not at home!"

"Let me tell you," Zhu Mingyu became a little angry, "You need to be beaten, don't you? Believe it or not, I smashed the door of your house!"

"Don't!" Another man's voice came from inside the door, "Old Qi, don't break the door! We have something to discuss! This door was just painted last month!"

The door opened again, but only a crack. A round-faced man poked his head out. The man looked to be in his thirties, with an awkward smile on his face.

"Oh, this is the Seventh Immortal."

Zhu Mingyu said with a smile: "Third senior brother, you are fine."

"It's okay, it's okay. I'm talking about Lao Qi, why do you have time to come to Senior Brother's place?"

"Brother, I have nothing to ask of you."

"Hey, Old Seven, look at you, aren't you here to ask for money?"

"I'm really not asking for money this time, trust me."

"Brother, senior brother, can I not believe you? But senior brother has one thing to say: I really have no money and nothing else."

"Senior brother, this is not interesting enough. We have a good relationship. We slept on the same big bed when we were young. Junior brother, I am coming to find you. Why don't you tell me whether you are allowed to come in? The door is only open just a crack?"

"It's not like you don't know how generous your senior brother is. How many times did your senior brother buy you candies when you were a kid, right? It's not that your senior brother didn't let you in, but your sister-in-law... you also know that women are petty..."

"Who are you saying to be petty, fat guy?!" Another explosive female voice came from inside the door, followed by the sound of footsteps like a storm. Not long after, the door was opened from the inside with a "clang" .
