Zhou Mufei hurriedly told Dugu Liuyun: "If you haven't asked, please don't ask for now. When I recover from my injury, I will accompany you there, and then you can ask again."

"Why?" Dugu Liuyun was puzzled.

Of course Zhou Mufei would not tell him that he wanted to hear the gossip with his own ears, so he said bluntly and confidently: "For your safety. Although your current swordsmanship may be a little bit higher than your master's, but here after all It's his territory, we'd better be careful in everything."

Dugu Liuyun shook his head disapprovingly and said, "Mu Fei, you're overthinking. Master is always upright, and he won't use schemes to harm people. Moreover, if he wants to harm me, he had a lot of opportunities to do it when you were injured earlier. , there is no need to wait until later.”

Well, this statement does make sense.But……

"Even so, you still can't ask alone," Zhou Mufei said, "Let's ask together after I recover from my injury in a few days."

Dugu Liuyun: "...why?"

Seeing that he really wanted to break the casserole and ask the end, Zhou Mufei felt very upset: Anyway, I just blocked the knife for you, so why can't you be more considerate and not bother me with a hundred thousand why?

So Zhou Mufei rolled his eyes and said angrily: "Why do you have so many whys? I said to ask together, so I asked together. Don't refute and don't ask why, or I will get angry!"

Dugu Liuyun: "...Okay, I'll listen to you."

That's more or less.

Seeing that he finally agreed, Zhou Mufei's mood improved a lot.

Then he started to feel sleepy.

Probably because he lost too much blood and needed to recuperate, so he was very tired very quickly, so Zhou Mufei said to Dugu Liuyun, "I'm sleepy, let's sleep for a while." After finishing speaking, he closed his eyes and fell asleep not long after.

Dugu Liuyun took his pulse, saw that the pulse was stable, and knew that the injury was recovering well under the effect of the medicine, so he felt relieved.

Not long after, Tang Shu was ordered by Ji Lingxuan to check on Zhou Mufei's situation. Seeing that he was fine, he went back to report with peace of mind.

Dugu Liuyun wanted to ask his master about the old things he had concealed, but thinking of Zhou Mufei's advice, he still resisted going.

Fortunately, Zhou Mufei's sword wound was not at a critical point, and the injury was not serious. With the healing medicine from Fengjian Villa and the decoction prescribed by the doctor for internal and external healing, most of the injury will be healed after seven or eight days. Not only can he get out of bed and walk around freely, And it can transform freely.

So Zhou Mufei, who felt that his injury had healed, began to encourage Dugu Liuyun to take him to find Ji Lingxuan to ask the story behind the massacre of the family.

"But," Dugu Liuyun hesitated, "Your injury has not healed yet, is it appropriate to go now?"

"What's inappropriate?" Zhou Mufei waved his hands nonchalantly: "You didn't say it yourself, your master won't harm you. Go, go, go now."

Dugu Liuyun: "..."

So, under Zhou Mufei's urging, Dugu Liuyun had no choice but to take him to Ji Lingxuan's room.

Because he was afraid that if he followed Dugu Liuyun, Ji Lingxuan would be apprehensive because of the presence of outsiders, Zhou Mufei also specially transformed into a big eagle, planning to hide in the tree outside to eavesdrop later.

One person and one carving walked to Ji Lingxuan's door, and saw that the lights in the house were still on, which showed that Ji Lingxuan hadn't rested yet.

Dugu Liuyun stepped forward and knocked on the door, but no one answered.

So Dugu Liuyun knocked on the door twice, and said at the same time: "Master, I have something to ask." Ji Lingxuan still didn't respond.

Dugu Liuyun was puzzled and worried, and pushed the door with his hands, only to find that the door was locked from the inside.

Dugu Liuyun intuited that something was going on in the house, so he stretched out his hand and drew his sword out of nowhere, cut off the latch with one sword, then pushed the door and walked in.

Zhou Mufei immediately followed him into the house, and told him intuitively that the truth they had always wanted to know might be revealed tonight.

The two walked into the house and saw that the candles on the table were burning brightly, but there was no one in the room, even the bedding was neatly folded.

Dugu Liuyun wandered around, only to see that the furnishings in the house were exactly the same as many years ago, without any change.

He looked at this room where he had been in countless times since he was a child, and couldn't help recalling the situation where his master taught him so carefully in the past, and then recalled the details of how the master and himself got along with each other over the years, and he felt mixed feelings for a moment. .

At the same time, Zhou Mufei was also carefully checking the surroundings for any abnormalities, because the eagle's eyes are far sharper than humans, and they can see everything around them clearly even in the dark, so when his eyes fell on the wardrobe, he found that the wardrobe The position has shifted a bit.

Zhou Mufei stepped forward to take a closer look, and found that the wardrobe was indeed shifted two inches to the right, and at the same time, there was a thin gap in the wall behind the wardrobe.

Zhou Mufei turned his head quickly, and yelled "Ooh" twice to Dugu Liuyun.

Dugu Liuyun understood, and immediately stepped forward to take a look, and naturally found this abnormality.

Dugu Liuyun stretched out his hand to push the closet hard, but the closet did not move at all, it seems that there should be a trap.

Dugu Liuyun turned to the front of the closet for a closer look. After a while, he found that the heights of the two decorative bronze Pixiu on both sides of the closet were different, and one of them seemed to have something embedded in it.Dugu Liuyun was immediately blessed, and immediately held the bronze pixiu with his hands and exerted a little force, and sure enough, he pushed the pixiu in.

Immediately afterwards, there was a slight "click" sound of the mechanism, and then the wardrobe moved to the side, revealing a dark hole.

There is a secret passage!

Zhou Mufei's eyes lit up at the side. After comparing the size of the hole with his own body shape, he decisively transformed into a man, then grabbed a set of clothes from the closet and changed into it, then turned to the table and grabbed it. Picking up the candlestick on the table, he couldn't hide his excitement and said to Dugu Liuyun: "Go, let's go down and have a look!"

Dugu Liuyun also really wanted to know what secret was hidden in Master's secret way, whether it was related to the massacre of Dugu's family, so he nodded and said in a low voice, "Follow me carefully." Then he took the candlestick from Zhou Mufei's hand with his left hand , with his right hand, he drew out the long sword behind his back, and then walked into the cave with the long sword in his hand, and walked in step by step along the secret path that gradually descended.

Zhou Mufei immediately followed closely, while walking, he was careful whether there were hidden weapons or the like in the secret passage.

The two walked one after the other. The secret passage was not wide, but it was very long. The further down it went, the darker it became. In the end, the light from the candle was so weak that it could be ignored, but there was no hidden weapon.

The two walked for a long time, and the front gradually opened up, and then an iron door appeared in front of them.

Dugu Liuyun went up and saw that the iron door was half-hidden, so he pushed it with his hand, and the next second, his eyes were bright.

Dugu Liuyun's eyes were used to the darkness, and he immediately narrowed his eyes when he encountered light.

Before his eyes could adapt to the light, he suddenly heard a familiar voice: "Liu Yun?"

It was Ji Lingxuan's voice.

Dugu Liuyun finally saw the scene in front of him clearly.

I saw a large and spacious room in front of me. The walls around the room are made of white marble. There are lotus-shaped lamps placed at the four corners. However, there are no lights inside the lamps. Instead, there is a night pearl the size of a pigeon egg. It illuminates the interior of the house as brightly as day.

Therefore, he clearly saw the pale-faced master standing in front of him, and also clearly saw the transparent ice coffin in the middle of the room, and the man in the blue shirt lying in the ice coffin.

Through the transparent coffin lid, Dugu Liuyun clearly saw that the man had a face very similar to his own.

Dugu Liuyun was shaken all over, couldn't help but take a step back, and lost his voice: "Master, he is..."

Ji Lingxuan's face has returned to normal at this moment, he quietly looked at Dugu Liuyun, and said indifferently: "He is your father."

Although he had already guessed it in his heart, Dugu Liuyun was still shocked when he heard the confirmation from his master. After a while, he found his own voice and said, "Then, is he still alive?" Ordinary people, as if they were just asleep, a glimmer of hope could not help but rise in his heart.

Ji Lingxuan shook his head and said, "He has been dead for 23 years, and I killed him with my own hands."

Dugu Liuyun turned pale when he heard the words, and couldn't help blurting out: "Master, why did you kill my whole family and hide my father's body here? What kind of grievances do you have with my father..."

Ji Lingxuan stared at him without fear, and said, "Although I killed him, I never regretted it. So, you just kill me to avenge him."

Dugu Liuyun looked at Ji Lingxuan's eyes, and saw that his eyes were deep and calm, as dead as a pool of stagnant water, unable to stir up any ripples, but seemed to hide deep pain.

Dugu Liuyun only felt the pain in his heart, and suddenly raised his head and said: "Master, you have the kindness of nurturing and teaching the disciple, and the disciple will never do such a rebellious and immoral thing as killing the master. The reason why I returned to Feng Jian Shanzhuang, I just want an explanation from you, I want to know what happened back then!"

"There's nothing to talk about back then." Ji Lingxuan shook his head and said, "It's just that Long Tianwei and I coveted the Dugu Sword Book and conspired to kill your whole family. It's as simple as that. Well, if you don't want to bear the charge of murdering a master, I can do it myself." It’s fine to end it. Anyway... I’ve got my wish, and there’s nothing left to miss in this world.” In the last sentence, he was talking to himself, and his voice was so low that only he could hear it clearly.

After finishing speaking, Ji Lingxuan raised his hand suddenly, and a wave of force came.

Unexpectedly, Dugu Liuyun snatched the long sword from his hand.

Ji Lingxuan held his sword horizontally in front of his neck, and was about to wipe the long sword away, so as to end his life, when he suddenly heard a familiar voice say: "Ah Xuan, no!"
