Run the rivers and lakes

Luo Jiuyuan was still drinking tea when he received all kinds of news.

"The spies have already seen Wang Xunfeng! He took Wufangtang to camp not far from the town, and he also brought Gu Xueming."

"I see." Luo Jiuyuan's tone was still calm.

"Wei Shuxing was unconscious in the cell, the person who delivered the lunch told him."

"Are you comatose? Is the little flesh injury he suffered so serious?" Luo Jiuyuan's face showed doubts, "Find a doctor to take a look, and bring more experts by the way."

"Someone from outside the town wants to see you."

Luo Jiuyuan asked, "Who is it?"

"Mo Xingfeng."

Luo Jiuyuan was startled for a while, then put down the teacup, and looked serious: "I'll go see him."

After nearly 20 years of separation, there is no warm reminiscence in the meeting of the old friends, looking at each other like strangers meeting for the first time.I am afraid that the youth's past has been scattered in the shallow stream called time along with the old sweet-scented osmanthus wine, rushing towards the distant old rivers and mountains without returning, leaving only shabby bottles, and what is poured out is full of bitter new worries.

Mo Xingfeng felt a little embarrassed, and broke the silence: "Long time no see, Luo Jiuyuan."

Luo Jiuyuan smiled slightly: "I haven't seen you for a long time, don't you even want to call Second Brother?"

"..." Mo Xingfeng paused silently for a moment, avoiding Luo Jiuyuan's unserious gag, and got straight to the point, "Have you ever seen Bai Shu?"

"No." Luo Jiuyuan shrugged helplessly, and looked at Mo Xingfeng pretending to be honest, "But I heard about some things that happened recently, why, something happened to him too?"

"He betrayed us." Mo Xingfeng looked solemn, his deep voice revealed a tone of disappointment, and he clenched his fists, "We clearly made a promise with Big Brother back then, and we would only guard our own keys. Never get involved in this exercise of Qinglan Villa, but he snatched other keys, and... at any cost."

Luo Jiuyuan was silent for a while, sighed heavily, and said sadly: "You know, I didn't want to believe this, but when it came out of your mouth, I had to believe it,...you always They just tell the truth.”

"...Then, is brother's death related to him?" Luo Jiuyuan asked again.

Mo Xingfeng had no time to think and said: "It should be related, but it won't be him. The elder brother died of the poison on the hidden weapon, and he was obviously attacked by surprise. Even if Bai Shu really became mad, he would not be so useless. I don't even have the courage to face big brother face to face. It's a pity that I haven't found the bastard who sneaked up."

A fleeting wave flashed in Luo Jiuyuan's eyes, his face was unnatural for a moment, and then he immediately returned to normal, saying: "I see, I will investigate this while I will definitely avenge my brother."

Mo Xingfeng didn't notice the subtle change in Luo Jiuyuan, and continued to ask: "You caught Wang Xunfeng's son?"

Luo Jiuyuan didn't deny it: "It seems that things have spread."

"But it is precisely because of this that Wang Xunfeng brought Gu Laowu along, and wanted to blackmail us." Mo Xingfeng looked serious, and his tone became more serious, even with some unreasonable accusations.

"Even if I don't have Wang Xunfeng's son, the fifth younger brother's life is only at Wang Xunfeng's whim. His situation is not as good as you imagined. Wang Junyu is in my hands, but there is an extra room for choice. "Luo Jiuyuan retorted calmly and methodically.

But it may be that when we got along with him when we were young, we always liked to preach a few words. When we met again, it seemed to arouse a long-standing habit. If you don't use your brain and rely on your self-righteous palm technique, you can only pass the Jianghu Xiaoxiao. When you meet Wang Xunfeng, you are like a stone hitting a mountain. When you were young, you used to have a big brother to help you, but now there is no more."

Even though Luo Jiuyuan's words were true, but Mo Xingfeng was overwhelmed with reprimands by an old man whom he hadn't seen for a long time, and Mo Xingfeng's temper was momentary, and he retorted: "Since the incident at Qinglan Villa, I have traveled far and wide and never relied on my elder brother again. ——Oh, you are smart, so you are hiding in a corner where we can't see and plan secretly, what are you planning? How do I know it's not for your own selfishness. "

"Can't you see what I'm doing?" Luo Jiuyuan's tone was firm, like knocking on a piece of wood, "I'm bringing down Wufangtang, and I'm saving you, all the mediocre people like you in the rivers and lakes If you don't want to contribute, don't get in my way."

Mo Xingfeng twitched his brows, with a very complicated expression on his face, as if he had drunk vinegar from a wine bottle, and smiled inexplicably: "Luo Jiuyuan, since you were young, you have liked this, talking big-sounding big words, and then Half of it is fooling around. Your cleverness is stuffed into a pot full of gunpowder, and it explodes if you don't do it. Bang!"

He spread the five fingers of both hands, indicating an explosive movement, and said: "The world doesn't need you to save him. He was like this before you were born, and it may be worse. Although I admit that I am not as smart as you, but I I also have an intuition, I think you are just making excuses for yourself."

He turned around and said again, with a lighter tone: "However, even if you have other reasons, I don't care, at least you are stumbling Wufangtang at present--I just want to rescue the fifth brother and find the brother who killed the elder brother. That bastard, give Bai Shu a lesson, and then take those children from Shuxing to leave safely, and I won’t accompany the others.”

This time it was Luo Jiuyuan's turn to laugh, and his words were sarcasm: "You really don't want to do much, I don't know who is the one who talks big. ——Why, the passionate and generous words suddenly gave a step down, It seems that there is still something to ask, and you also know that you can't save Lao Wu by yourself."

Mo Xingfeng raised his eyebrows: "Don't tell me you don't care about the fifth child?"

"I will come up with other ways." Luo Jiuyuan deliberately emphasized the word "other", meaning that he would not hand over Wang Junyu easily.

Gu Feiyu sat obediently in the corner and watched them all the time, not daring to show his temper, for fear that they would blow up the roof all by themselves.After a long time, Luo Jiuyuan seemed to have finally noticed her, his face became gentle and kind, and he waved to her: "You are Feiyu, don't worry, I will find a way to bring your father back safely."

Gu Feiyu stepped forward and nodded obediently. ——Actually, she doesn't look so cute, but it's not a bad thing to be cute in front of the elders, and it can relax the vigilance of others.

She thought for a while, and asked a question she had been curious about for a long time: "Second Uncle, do you know the whereabouts of Big Brother Wei and the others? I got separated from them in Zhangshan, and I'm a little worried."

Luo Jiuyuan's face was a little dazed, but no one noticed because of the short time.With a gentle tone, he said: "I will teach people to look for it. I don't think anything will happen to them. ——These days, you just stay here, don't go anywhere, don't run around, it's safer."

"Okay." Gu Feiyu scratched his head and smiled, "Anyway, I can't help much. In order not to delay, I just sleep in the room for a few days."

Luo Jiuyuan felt more at ease with her for a moment, and rubbed the top of her head: "A sensible girl."

After leaving Luo Jiuyuan's room, Gu Feiyu asked Mo Xingfeng in a low voice: "Fourth Uncle, don't you trust Second Uncle?"

Mo Xingfeng moved his nose: "It doesn't look good to him."

"..." Gu Feiyu didn't know how to evaluate Mo Xingfeng's attitude, and in view of the lessons learned by Bai Shu, he told him with some concern, "Anyway, fourth uncle, you have to be careful, it's easy to hide from the open sword, but hard to guard against the dark arrow. "

——After all, Mo Xingfeng really doesn't have much talent in scheming.

"Understood." Mo Xingfeng replied quickly.

Not long after Gu Feiyu returned to her room, she still chose to sneak out and wandered around the town furtively, only to discover something important while walking around.

If it weren't for her sharp eyes, she wouldn't have noticed it.A boy who looked to be about seven or eight years old was playing with a sword in a corner under the eaves. It would be fine if it was an ordinary sword.

——But that sword is the Tianjie Sword.

The first thought that came to Gu Feiyu's mind was: Brother Wei finally gave birth?Still growing so fast?

The second thought is: They are finally so poor that they have no money to use, and they come out to sell their property?

Maybe she also felt that she was too ridiculous, so she immediately dispelled these strange thoughts, walked up to the child and squatted down, putting on a friendly smile: "Child, can you tell sister, where did your sword come from?"

"I picked it up." The child replied childishly.

"Pick it up? Where did you pick it up?"

The child replied: "A lot of people were fighting last night. After they finished fighting, this sword was left on the ground, still shining. It took me a long time to successfully put the sword back into the scabbard, and then hugged it back."

After hearing this, Gu Feiyu pondered for a moment, feeling bad.Although it is said that children speak without restraint, sometimes children's words are more reliable than adults.Gu Feiyu speculated that Wei Shuxing and the others had already arrived here, and, for some reason, they had fought with the people here... A lot of things came to a conclusion: Luo Jiuyuan was not credible.

But she didn't want to tell Mo Xingfeng right now that Mo Xingfeng was not a calm person, and if he went to confront Luo Jiuyuan in a moment of anger, it would be bad to startle the snake.

In short, let's redeem Wei Shuxing's sword now.

Gu Feiyu coaxed: "Child, how about this, sister will give you some money, you can go buy some food, in exchange, you can give sister the sword, okay?"

The child's eyes rolled, and there was a little lewdness in the innocent smile: "No, sister, give me money and let me kiss again, and I will give you the sword."

Seeing the child's drooling mouth, Gu Feiyu twitched his brows. He didn't know whether to be angry or to laugh. His gentle expression was instantly shattered, and his tone became fierce: "Ha, you little rascal. Now, you have two choices." , [-], sister gives you money, you give me the sword, [-], sister knocks out a row of your teeth, and then takes away the sword."

The child might have been frightened by Gu Feiyu's sudden change of demeanor, so he chose the first option tremblingly.

"Be obedient." Gu Feiyu smiled triumphantly, gave the child some silver coins, and took the sword away.

Gu Feiyu: The wind is so strong, I am so tired
