Relief

Climbing up the hillside, there is an open square with a cast tripod standing in the center.

The mountain mist poured down from the top of the snow, soaked in the cool chill, and buried the surrounding scenery.The courtyards of buildings hidden behind the fog were silent, Shi Renyu led the crowd across the square, and met a group of patrolling guards. The fourth child's overly prominent figure made them questioned a lot.Shu Yinzhi had a violent temper, and almost rolled up his sleeves and clashed with the guards.

"Feng Jing originally had the right to supervise the Zongmen's weapon casting, but now he treats us like craftsmen, and even the martial arts field is closed, leaving only the foundry to enter and exit." Shi Renyu said.

This square used to be their martial arts training ground, and they could usually see their disciples exercising in groups, but now it was covered by snow and fog, like an empty lonely tomb, lifeless.

The temperature on the mountain is low, and those who practice martial arts have internal skills and mental skills, and are not afraid of the cold. Only Wu Li and Feng Zhichang are helpless to suffer from the cold.Wu Li was thick-skinned, and hid himself in the black fur of Yueguan Mountain to shelter from the wind. Xie Zhixu only realized that Feng Zhichang would also be cold when he saw him. They are all frozen blue.It seems that Tang Yu didn't expect this, neither of them prepared thick clothes, so Xie Zhixu untied his robe and put it on Feng Zhichang first. gown.

Xie Zhixu was extremely speechless, and said to Xiang Heng: "What's the matter with you, just join in the fun."

In the past two years, he has always paid attention to propriety and etiquette when speaking, but at this time he really couldn't help it.

Xiang Heng smiled brightly, as if the hidden wound left by Yue Guanshan on his shoulder had already healed: "My robe has small sleeves, so it doesn't let the wind out, and it's warmer to wear. Mister, make it a point, and when we arrive at the residence, I still have Mrs. Tang. "

Without saying a word, Xie Zhixu wrapped his robe tightly around Feng Zhichang.Feng Zhichang had no time to refuse, and he didn't.

Talking less and doing more is realism.

Shu Yinzhi came over and put Xie Zhixu's shoulders on his shoulders: "Apprentice, it seems that you have learned the mental method well, and you can already resist the cold with internal strength."

Before he was able to circulate his internal energy around the sky, Xie Zhixu's physique was no different from that of an ordinary person, and he did not know any light work or qigong.As a little master, Shu Yinzhi devoted himself to teaching, Xie Zhixu said with a sincere smile, "Thanks to Senior Sister Shu for her guidance."

He had just finished saying this, and his arm was heavy, but Feng Zhichang threw the robe back to himself, and asked Tang Yu to push the cart to the front of the team, his back was very indifferent.

What's the matter?Thank you Zhixu for being confused.

Xiang Heng whistled at him, and chased after him with the corner of his mouth raised.

The tip of the ear touched someone's breath. It turned out that Shu Yinzhi put his head on his shoulder and said as if blowing into his ear: "Why are you standing there stupidly? Who are you looking at?"

The hot breath went straight into the ears, ambiguous for no reason.

Xie Zhixu's whole body trembled, almost jumping his feet: "Senior Sister, don't hurt me!"

Shi Renyu settled the group in the area where the disciples of the inner sect lived. Those two small courtyards were the residences of Shu Yinzhi and Lu Hui, and now they are moved to the guests to squeeze in.

The neighbors are silent, and the doors and windows are closed.

Xiao Yunwei was checking his luggage outside, Lu Hui closed the door, and the light dimmed.

"Those two bastards can even join the inner sect." Wu Li sat around the table with the others and said sourly.

Suan Tou's crooked melons and cracked dates were stopped outside the inner gate, but Xiang Heng and Li Liang followed all the way in and lived in the same yard.

"Didn't expect that," Lu Hui glanced at him, "Although the boy is not good at beating, he is quite capable." He asked Shi Renyu, "We met Xiang Heng's gang outside the city, and they said they heard some rumors. I dare not go up the mountain. What happened to the two red rivers in Qingyuan Town?"

Shi Renyu's eyebrows drooped, and he sat on the stool without unloading his long sword, the scabbard sticking to the ground, looking strenuous and weird.He is older than Lu Huishu and Yinzhi, and his speech and behavior are much more stable.

"I was just about to talk about this. To tell you the truth, someone from the town has asked disciples to investigate the mountain. The Red River actually flows from the source. Human blood, some disciples speculate that it may be red algae, but it is not a big deal," Shi Renyu was worried, "The most important thing recently is the disappearance of Master, so I issued a summoning order to call back disciples from all over the world. Ba Ye came back a lot. Feng Jing originally wanted to find Qiao with us, and he was unwilling to find someone. Now that we have a large number of people, he is finally willing to cooperate, but because of this, he was forced to call in guards and put the sect under martial law. Alas, everyone It is to find someone, why bother to make such a fuss." Shi Renyu was very worried.

Xie Zhixu and Wu Li looked at each other, and said to himself that Feng Jing is Wang Gan's subordinate, and he sent troops to guard Huangrenling not to find your missing leader.

Lu Hui also said: "Eldest brother, don't be naive, maybe the master just made Feng Jing imprisoned, so that he can act as the head of the sect and completely control the sect."

"That's right!" Shu Yinzhi slapped the table aggressively, "I'm afraid he's a bird, we have a lot of people, arrest Feng Jing and torture him to extract a confession, and ask him to tell the whereabouts of Master!"

The finches that were nesting under the eaves were startled by her slap.

The stone man wiped off his sweat, and persuaded him, "Don't be so reckless."

All the guests present are touching their noses.They didn't come to Huangren Ridge specially to watch the excitement. As the helpers invited by Shu Yinzhi and Lu Hui, if they really wanted to fight Feng Jing, they had to contribute.

Lu Hui said: "Eldest brother is right, don't act recklessly. If Master is really in Feng Jing's hands, it will be his bargaining chip to threaten us."

The stone man said foolishly: "That's right! That's the truth. We've been suffering from headaches for a long time. The second junior brother will come back in time. It's all up to you to make suggestions!"

Some disciples returned to the sect today, and Shi Renyu rushed to pick them up, in case the disciples were stopped by Feng Jing's guards outside the mountain gate.

As soon as the door was closed, Jing Busheng leaned against the fan bone, and said with a half-smile, "This Senior Brother Shi is a good person." She is the leader of the guards, and she can't help but make suggestions on weekdays. She can tell at a glance that Shi Renyu is a master who can't make up his mind.

"Otherwise," Lu Hui sighed, "or call me back in a hurry."

As soon as Master Zhu disappeared, the river in Qingyuan Town changed color.Is there really no connection between these two events?

Xie Zhixu was thinking about this issue while packing his luggage in the room he was given.I don't know how long I'll be staying in Huangrenling, but all the things haven't been displayed.

After packing up and going out, Lu Hui leaned against the door frame of the next room and gave him a wink - a head was lying on the low fence in the yard, and the orange-red phoenix feather was ostentatious.Feng Zhichang's two-wheeled vehicle was parked beside him, and the alpine rhododendrons on the fence made his neck white as porcelain, and he was listening to Xiang Heng's words with lowered eyes.

Xie Zhixu recognized this expression, which meant impatience.

Lu Hui joked with him: "Xiang Heng is a very cunning boy, you should watch him closely."

Before Xie Zhixu could reply, Shu Yinzhi came out of Lu Hui's room. They had just discussed something, and they hugged Xie Zhixu's shoulder affectionately: "Apprentice, let's go, I'm in my territory, I'll take you to visit our emperor." Ridge Armory, I agreed to pick a new sword for you."

As soon as Shu Yinzhi's hand came up, Feng Zhichang turned his head and met Xie Zhixu's eyes.Xie Zhixuan had a bad premonition in his heart, and sure enough, Feng Zhichang, who was still holding back his patience, nodded to Xiang Heng outside the fence.

Xiang Heng got the answer, and with a smile that was sure to win, he came to open the gate of the courtyard, pretending to take Feng Zhichang out.

"Second Brother!" Xie Zhixu hurriedly called, "Where are you going? Don't run around, Tang Haifeng won't let it go."

It was also a coincidence that Tang Haifeng disappeared from the island in the lake. They all thought that he was buried at the bottom of the lake by Fengzhi Chang Zhashan, but they didn't expect to appear in Huangrenling, thousands of miles away, with a thank you note in their hands. The blood abacus left in the cave on the island.According to Shi Renyu, Tang Haifeng joined Feng Jing as his deputy and the captain of the patrolling guard.

Feng Zhichang glanced at Xie Zhixu, but said nothing.Xiang Heng also looked over, the smiling face under the lowered brim of the hat was very unbearable, took the cart and went out with Feng Zhichang, even Tang Yu could only follow behind.

Xie Zhixu fell silent.

The atmosphere was a bit wrong, Shu Yinzhi was so nervous that he couldn't help but let go of Xie Zhixu's arm, feeling a little resentful.

Lu Hui crossed his arms, hating iron for not becoming steel, and said, "You shouldn't have said that just now, you know."

Xie Zhixu looked at him, meaning to give a demonstration.

Lu Hui squeezed her throat: "Second brother, don't leave, people are flustered, the season is bad, there are many bad people outside, it's good to be cheated~"

Bang Dang, Shu Yinzhi's chin hit the ground, Xiao Yunwei, who was squatting on the eaves, fell headlong, and the dust of dead leaves accumulated on the tiles for a long time was shaken off, and everyone stayed away from this shocking Lu Er Senior Brother in the dust .

Of the twelve Xiaoyunwei members, only three remained, and the other nine quietly melted into the mountain mist to disappear, and went to search for news in all directions.The courtyard where the disciples lived was sparsely populated, and they all avoided the patrolling guards under the advice of the senior brother, and each kept a low profile.

The martial arts training ground is facing the sect's meeting hall, only the guards come in and out, and the elders in the sect are not seen.Shu Yinzhi passed by the entrance of the meeting hall with a dagger in his hand, his tiger's head rising and falling, ready to go, as if he wanted to choose someone to eat, the guards' chests were covered with armor, and eagle eyes were staring at her and Xie Zhixu.

The two teams passed each other.

Walking through the meeting hall, Xie Zhixu said, "I thought you couldn't help it."

Shu Yinzhi snorted, thrust the bludgeon back into his lower back, restrained all his sharpness, and waited for the perfect moment to kill him with one blow.

She is not only the junior sister who broke into the houses in Suzhou without asking any indiscriminate actions, and asked Lu Hui to hold the rope.

The meeting hall is located in the front hall of a courtyard with five entrances, and the armory is at the end.The living room of the head is separated by Feng Jingjiu.Shu Yinzhi deliberately avoided it, and led Xie Zhixu into the mansion through the side door.

There is only a simple wooden door under the corridor, which is dusty. If it weren't for the two guards guarding the left and right, it would not be obvious that this is the armory at the core of Huangren Ridge.

"The commander-in-chief has orders. No one is allowed to enter or leave the equipment store." The guards did not look sideways, turning a blind eye to Shu Yinzhi and Xie Zhixu in front of them.

Shu Yinzhi has lived in Zongmen for more than ten years, and Zongmen is her home. She has never been stopped by anyone when she enters and exits her house. Her face changed immediately, and she took out a famous tag from her arms: "I have inner disciples. nameplate, with the right to enter the arsenal."

The guard repeated mechanically: "The commander-in-chief has orders, no one is allowed to enter the equipment storehouse."

Speaking of this point, Xie Zhixu already understood the situation in Huangrenling—just like Guiyi Village two years ago, the sovereignty has changed.

No matter how much Shu Yinzhi wanted to endure, he was a little angry at this time. The armory is the heart of the sect, and Huangrenling became famous all over the world with its casting skills.To control the arsenal is to control the sect's background, is it tolerable or unbearable?

"Feng Jing is only in the position of supervisor, how could he take charge of the authority of the head and be in charge of the armory!" She asked coldly.

The guard at the gate just ignored it, but a voice sounded from the end of the corridor:

"Zhu Dexiang is missing, and the commander-in-chief is acting as the head of the sect. This is what the commander-in-chief negotiated with your masters before he led the troops to settle in. What's your dissatisfaction? Don't break the rules."
