Early the next morning, a group of them said goodbye to everyone in Baiyun Village. Before leaving the village gate, Qiu Xianrong, who was almost unconscious after drinking last night, also came. The two sworn brothers who had just met each other said goodbye to each other. The scene was very touching. Jade whispered to Li Fenglan to "be careful".
Jade means to leave Xiangyang directly today and return to Luoyang. But this proposal was rejected by Li Fenglan.
"I'm going to Xiangyang. I want to say goodbye to two people."
Feicui was a little excited when she saw her grandma's family for the first time. Chen Ziyang and Chu Jiaoer had also heard a lot of rumors about jade and amber, and they were very happy to finally see them in person today.
Of course, the elders of the Chen family did not dare to meet, not because they were afraid of being known by Jianghu people, but mainly because they were afraid that these elders who had never met before would be unhappy. During the time Li Fenglan was in Xiangyang, rumors about her contact with the Chen family had long been flying. When the Lumen Sect was going to deal with Baiyun Village, they even sent people to the Chen family. The Chen family had to explain to them before dispelling their doubts. There were many people monitoring the Chen family during this period. Fortunately, Chen Ziyang and Chu Jiaoer were careful enough and no one noticed them.
Although Chen Ziyang and Chu Jiaoer are young, they are almost the same age and they can all talk to each other. But these two children were very reserved in front of Amber and did not dare to speak loudly.
Li Fenglan secretly rejoiced that through this period of brainwashing, they had successfully created the image of Amber as a "murderer", thus avenging the "blood massacre" outside Yangzhou City.
I didn't do anything else during this day in Xiangyang City. I just followed Chen Ziyang and Chu Jiaoer around Xiangyang City. Feicui took some time to instruct the two on their sword skills.
After one night, I said goodbye to the two children again, and four people and four horses left Xiangyang City.
Looking at the four figures gradually disappearing from the city gate, a few middle-aged people sat in a restaurant not far from the city gate and whispered something.
"That's Wanru's daughter," the middle-aged man with a square face said calmly, "I always feel like she is still a child, and it has been more than 20 years in a flash."
Chen Tianhe, whose eyes were almost blind, smiled: "It's been so many years, the old people are gone, how can there be so many rules at home?"
A fat middle-aged man smiled and said, "You don't have to talk about the old rules, but it's better for us nieces to have less contact with each other."
Chen Tianhe nodded, and then asked eagerly: "Do you look like my sister?"
The square-faced man smiled and said, "Like, like they were cut out of the same mold."
This answer made Chen Tianhe very happy and kept saying: "That's good, that's good."
…
Outside Xiangyang City, the four people had not gone far when Li Fenglan suddenly pulled the reins.
"Emerald, Amber," she called out to the two of them with a smile, "I have something to tell you."
Jade turned her head and said, "What do you want to say?"
"You two go back to Luoyang."
Jade frowned, but before she could express her opinion, Amber rushed to the side and said, "Sister Lan, what do you mean? Aren't you going back with us?"
Li Fenglan explained: "Don't worry, I won't run away this time. We are going to the next step."
Jade asked: "What do you mean?"
"When you go back, tell Bai Shuyu that in two months, you will besiege Yeyu Xiaozhu in Luzhou and let the Bai family be prepared."
Jade was even more puzzled: "You have been away for such a long time, and now you don't know what form you are in, but you are just giving orders?"
Li Fenglan nodded: "Believe me, it's been more than a year and it's time to settle things."
Jade lowered his head and thought for a moment, then asked, "You really aren't going to run away, are you?"
"real."
Jade slowly walked up to Li Fenglan on horseback, stretched out her right index finger and thumb and placed them on Li Fenglan's cheek. When Li Fenglan was still thinking about what Jade meant, Jade suddenly closed her two fingers, pinched the skin on her cheek and pinched it. One lap.
"Ah!!" Li Fenglan shouted heartbreakingly, "Jade! What are you doing?!"
Jade rolled her eyes, turned the horse's head, and said softly: "I haven't beaten you yet, let's make up for it this time. If you dare to run away again, I will break your legs."
The figures of the two girls, one green and one yellow, gradually disappeared. Li Fenglan rubbed her red and swollen cheeks and complained to Han Lu beside her: "Look at her! It's not a big deal! You're still laughing!"
Han Lu couldn't help laughing: "Okay, stop complaining, it's just a pinch. I thought she would pull your hair and beat you the day before yesterday."
"what's wrong with you?"
"What happened to me?"
"What happened to you the day before yesterday? She was about to come over and beat me up. How did you avoid it?"
"Didn't she beat you?"
"What if she actually takes action? What if she maims me? Didn't you say that you won't let her touch a hair on my head before you die?"
"...To be honest, I feel that if I hadn't stopped, you would have been beaten at most. If I had really stopped, both of us would have been beaten to death by her. What do you think Bai Shuyu ate?" Dare? Dare to chase Jade, hehe, he will suffer a lot for the rest of his life."
Li Fenglan didn't want to pay attention to him, so she pinched the horse's belly and walked quickly towards the south. Han Lu hurriedly caught up and asked: "You said Bai Shuyu didn't tell Jade the real reason why you left, why didn't you tell her either? Did you do that before? I still blame Jade for lying to you, now isn’t this considered a lie?”
Li Fenglan's expression was very serious: "I know this is a lie, but I have no better choice. The Bai family is still useful now... No, the Bai family still has the possibility of changing their minds, and with the current relationship between Jade and Bai Shuyu, I don't want to It's too much of a fight with them. If Jade knows the truth, what do you think she will do?"
"Uh... hit the Bai family directly? Beat Bai Shuyu to death?"
"Hey," Li Fenglan sighed and looked up at the sky, "Maybe you are right... In fact, Jade is not a very independent person, she just seems to be independent. She is a tyrant, and often tyrants The wrong thing she did was not because of her original wish, but because of a female minister. The tyrant has only one way to solve the problem, kill. If she makes her unhappy, no matter how favored the female minister was before, she will be killed. Jade is really If they start fighting with the Bai family, they will legitimately cooperate with Ye Yu Xiaozhu."
Han Lu thought for a while and said, "But Jade has to know about this. You can't hide it from her forever, right?"
"Yes, I will try my best to stop Bai Shuyu from the cliff before Jade knows the truth, but if he doesn't listen... I will kill him myself."
"In that case, will Jade hate you?"
"Hate it if you hate it. To be honest, I really don't like Bai Shuyu. It's okay if Jade leaves him."
"You always think so much, just take it one step at a time, maybe things won't turn out so bad."
"hope so."
…
Chen Zijue was a little anxious.
The weather was getting colder. He was sitting in the yard wearing only a single coat, his eyes closed and his brows furrowed. It was obvious that he was very uneasy now.
"Burn the Bai family's underground palace, assassinate Jade Amber, take action against Li Fenglan... it's not right..."
He has been talking about these words for more than half a month. Ever since the sneak attack on the Bai family, Chen Zijue, who was usually strategizing, suddenly felt powerless.
As he was mumbling to himself, he suddenly smelled a putrid smell. Not long after, an old man in black robe walked into the yard. The old man's footsteps were so light that he seemed to be floating into the yard.
Chen Zijue opened his eyes and looked at the old man in black robe in front of him: "Senior Taotie, we have been looking for you for several months."
"Hehehehe," a scary laugh came from the old man's throat, "You're not just looking for me, are you? Aren't you looking for that little girl with the scar face?"
Normally, Chen Zijue would listen patiently no matter how verbose the person opposite him was, but today Chen Zijue obviously had no patience.
"We don't have the manpower to find her. Chief Taotie, how many people do you have?"
Taotie thought for a moment: "There are more than a hundred people."
Chen Zijue nodded, with a smile on his face: "Among so many leaders, you are the only one who can raise men and horses. Gather your men and horses and transfer them to Luzhou."
Taotie shook his head: "I want to take away at least fifty people."
Chen Zijue slowly stood up, a
The scholar's body exuded the murderous aura of an executioner.
He squinted his eyes, stared at the eyes under Taotie's cloak, and said in a cold tone: "You may not understand what I said. I asked you and all your people to go to Luzhou, not to discuss with you."
"Hehehehe," Taotie sneered again, "I have done my best to Ye Yu Xiaozhu. Now I have a revenge to take. Mr. Chen, I'm afraid I can't fulfill your request, Mr. Chen."
The iconic smile on Chen Zijue's face disappeared, replaced by bottomless viciousness and viciousness: "You can't die even if a sword penetrates your chest. I don't know if you can still stand up if I chop you into pieces." ?」
"threaten me?"
Chen Zijue said in a low voice: "Here comes someone."
In the shadow of the courtyard, two black figures suddenly appeared, one after another, killing Taotie. Taotie was suddenly startled. He opened his hands and black mist began to surround his palms. For a moment, the putrid smell in the yard became stronger.
The speed of the two black figures exceeded Taotie's imagination. Even though he took action quickly, he was still taken advantage of by those two people. Taotie considers himself to be a master of Tianzi. Two ordinary high-ranking assassins cannot do anything to him. Even if he is attacked first, he still has room to fight back.
But gradually, he discovered something was wrong. The martial arts of these two people seemed to be specially designed to restrain him, and he could not use his White Bone Strength at all.
In less than fifty rounds, Taotie had no way out.
"Stop!" an old and hoarse voice sounded, "I agree!"
The two black figures did not stop until the two daggers were placed on Taotie's neck, and Chen Zijue said softly: "Stop."
Chen Zijue slowly walked towards Taotie and said as he walked: "The masters and juniors living today all have countermeasures. Why do you think I have allowed you to do whatever you want in the past few years?"
Walking to Taotie, Chen Zijue took out a knife from his sleeve. He raised the knife and stabbed Taotie's chest.
Taotie grunted: "Hey, Mr. Chen, you know this won't kill me."
"I know," Chen Zijue put away the knife and sneered, "See Xing, have you ever heard of this poison?"
Taotie's body was shaken.
Chen Zijue waved his hand, and the two killers disappeared into the shadows again.
"After three months, if you haven't gotten the antidote, you will die ugly. I guess, Senior Taotie, your body is still afraid of poison, right?"
Taotie gritted his teeth and remained silent.
"Be obedient, Xiaozhu can't support you in vain. Gather your people to Luzhou within ten days. Get out."
