The mountains and rivers are quiet and broad

"You should still have an impression of the Blue and White Club."

"Um……"

"What do you think of the weapons hidden under the surface?" Chen Ke sat up straight, and called Eunuch Quan to come in and exchange a cup of hot tea for Chen Mao.

"The Blue and White Society is a chamber of commerce, and those prohibited items are either sold or used by themselves. Will a chamber of commerce have any disagreements?" Chen Mao really took the matter of the Blue and White Society to heart and asked Guan Hanzhong to go there Zhuozhou investigated.

"Who sold it to?" Chen Ke asked again, "In the case of the devil's rebellion, there are also inextricably linked with several people in the court."

The Linjiang Town case was like this, and Guan Hanzhong left Beijing to investigate for this reason.

"You want to talk about the Devil's Cult...and Yan Keqing?" Chen Mao shook his head while saying, "I can't." If so, "a huge situation" is not enough to describe it.

Temples are temples, and rivers and lakes are rivers and lakes. The two are related, but they cannot be compared on the same level.

The imperial court is concerned about the world's major events, the world's capable people are gathered in the Jianghu, and the common people are located neither in the imperial court nor in the Jianghu.What is the plan for arranging a bureau that runs through the world?

Chen Mao was lost in thought.

At the climax of the moon, Chen Ke quietly left the palace. Although he was injured, it did not affect his westward plan.

Chen Mao didn't ask him to stay, and he didn't say anything else. The two brothers didn't say goodbye, so they split their ways.

But the next day, new rumors spread in the capital—King Ren attacked the Holy One at night to try to kill the king, but his plot was revealed and he was captured.

At this time, Chen Ke had already left the capital, and he only frowned when he heard the rumors.He was on his way with all his heart, and Chen Mao had to make his own decision on matters in Beijing.

Chen Mao was indeed "furious" at the first moment to clarify the rumors, but this time the rumors were menacing, not just jingles and doggerel as before, but a clear description of how to assassinate and how to be captured, As if seeing it with my own eyes.

The wise does not buy rumours.But wise men are in the minority. As long as there is a deliberate move, the public will easily be convinced of the general trend of speech, join in and speak out.

Along the way, Chen Ke heard many versions of rumors and saw the imagination and creativity of the people.

Some spoke convincingly, as if they had seen it with their own eyes, while others were vague and made people laugh.

Just for a moment, the undercurrents in the court were turbulent, natural disasters came one after another, and the rivers and lakes were imminent—the world, which had been peaceful for more than ten years, suddenly became turbulent again.

The night Xu Qingfeng was in Shangfeng Town, Chen Ke had already arrived in Qingzhou, not far from Xu Qingfeng.

When leaving Beijing, Chen Ke had already sent a letter to Xu Qingfeng. Chen Ke calculated the time, and the letter was almost delivered to Xu Qingfeng.

After Xu Qingfeng found out, he would definitely stop his trip and wait for him in Qianzhou, while Chen Ke could reach Qianzhou in ten days at a fast pace.

Eunuch Quan was worried about Chen Ke's injury. "My lord, if you keep going like this, your injury will never heal, and the big guy won't be able to take it anymore..."

Guan Hongfeng didn't speak, and stood quietly aside, running around for days, Guan Hongfeng also looked dusty.

Chen Ke subconsciously caressed the wound on his arm, wondering if it was the influence of golden bell flower poison in his body, which made the wound on his arm not only heal slowly, but also always aching at night.

As long as Xu Qingfeng stopped and waited for them, the schedule could be slowed down, but Chen Ke remembered the night dream and wished to see Xu Qingfeng immediately.

Perhaps it was the affection of lovers, or it might be because both Xu Qingfeng and Chen Ke were reborn. In short, Chen Ke's dream at night was very close to reality.

It's just that Chen Ke couldn't imagine how tragic that night was.

The demon cultist who used the innocent child as a shield gave Xu Qingfeng a blow. Although the method was despicable, the effect was still there-Xu Qingfeng suffered serious injuries, and was singled out from the left abdomen to the ribs. a wound.

Xu Qingfeng endured the pain, hugged the child with one hand, and dealt with the madman at the same time.Aroused by the madman, Xu Qingfeng gave the opponent thirteen knives, which was fatal.

However, when the madman fell down suddenly, Xu Qingfeng couldn't hold it any longer, and managed to stabilize his body with the sword as a support.

"Hoo-hoo-ahhh..."

Xu Qingfeng heard his panting, gasping for breath, there was still a strong smell of blood in his nasal cavity, the blood gushing out from the wound on his abdomen stained his clothes, sticking them wet and hot, he even struggled with his hand Holding the child, unable to cover the wound.

The fighting and mourning all around intensified, and there were flames and shaking figures everywhere.

There were more than a dozen demon cult lunatics, but another group came at some time, and the residents of Shangfeng were slaughtered. Xu Qingfeng didn't bring many guards, and he was exhausted from dealing with all kinds of pursuits in the rivers and lakes.This fight, which hurt both sides, lasted until the sky was light.

There are not many people alive in Shangfeng Town.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Xu Qingfeng suddenly remembered his father's words: "Take the responsibility of the common people in the world, not only the hope of making the people of Liming prosperous and happy, but also their pain and suffering. For hundreds of years, the tribe has borne It has always been this bitterness, but the more bitter it is..."

——The more painful it is, the harder it is to let go.

During his lifetime, Xu Qingfeng fell in love with Chen Ke accidentally, and was tormented between love and the world, and no one could understand him.

And after his death, Xu Qingfeng saw the scene of people's lives being burnt, like a huge boulder weighing heavily on the bottom of his heart.After regaining his first life and being favored by Chen Ke, Xu Qingfeng just wanted to cherish it.

Whether he was alive, after death, or after rebirth, he never dared to forget his mission as a member of the Zhou clan for a moment.

"Young master." Aman staggered two steps and ran over. She also dealt with a Demon Cult lunatic alone, and after struggling for a long time to win the opponent, she ran two steps like a headless chicken and saw Xu Qingfeng.

Xu Qingfeng looked at the blood-stained Aman, who was in a mess, and thought for a while before he recognized Aman.

Facing Xu Qingfeng's gaze, Ah Man's footsteps froze.Xu Qingfeng's expression was cold and desolate, his body was covered with blood, and there was a murderous and tragic look in his eyes.However, in the next second, Aman saw a puddle of blood under Xu Qingfeng's feet.

"My lord, you're injured!" Aman rushed forward, and only when he got closer did he realize that what Xu Qingfeng was holding in his arms was a young child.

Xu Qingfeng wanted to shake his head to show her not to worry.

Aman stretched out his hand, wanting to take the child in Xu Qingfeng's hand first, but Xu Qingfeng didn't let go, just stared blankly.

Hugging the child's thin body, Aman saw that the child was missing a hand.For a moment, Aman's hands also trembled, "Master, let go. Son, it's already..."

Xu Qingfeng looked down, and saw that the child was in pain, his eyes were closed tightly, the color on his little face had long since disappeared, and he was no longer breathing.

Such a small child suffered from that knife, and at some point, he lost too much blood and died.

Xu Qingfeng didn't notice it all the time, let go of his hand, and the child was taken away by Aman.

Aman looked around and saw a small stone pile, which happened to be the place where the child was hiding earlier.Without knowing it, Aman put the child beside the stone pile and arranged the child's clothes.

Xu Qingfeng stood in place and watched Aman do all this, his eyes gradually blurred, the wound on his stomach was burning like fire, before he fell unconscious, Xu Qingfeng saw Aman running towards him with a face full of panic.

When he was a little conscious, Xu Qingfeng felt a sense of chaos.

When he was a child, his father and Xu Qingfeng talked about Qu Zi's "Heavenly Questions". Xu Qingfeng has always had a deep impression on this episode: "In the beginning of ancient times, who preached it? The ups and downs have not been formed, so how can we test it?"

Who can investigate what the beginning of the vast universe looked like?When there is no sky and no earth, what is chaos, who can describe it?

Is darkness just chaos?Or is darkness the beginning of it all?How did the universe conceive and how did life arise?Xu Qingfeng thought about these questions countless times, but couldn't find a reasonable answer after all.

Xu Qingfeng tried to open his eyes, and saw a vast expanse of white mist.Xu Qingfeng was no stranger to the scenery in front of him, even Xu Qingfeng had walked this loess road twice.

The first time, he went to see a terrible human tragedy; the second time, he walked for a long time in the fog before he saw Chen Ke's back, and followed the back that he couldn't catch up for a long time before meeting Chen Ke. Here comes a new life.And now, Xu Qingfeng was standing on this road again.

There is a white mist everywhere, and I can't see the direction clearly. There are familiar loess roads under my feet, and there are trees on the side of the road. This road seems to have no end.

Xu Qingfeng just wanted to cry.

Did he die again?He and Chen Ke had only been together for a few months, and after communicating with each other, they had many concerns, and finally told all the truth, and Chen Ke went back to Beijing.

And now he's dead again?He hasn't found the golden bell flower for Chen Ke yet, who knows what will happen if he moves forward?What if he went to a place without Chen Ke?What if he was back in that fire again?

Maybe everything was just a dream. When he opened his eyes, Chen Ke was still the king of benevolence, and the Xu family had never been destroyed.

Xu Qingfeng had countless guesses in his mind, his eyes became more and more sore, but the tears could not shed.He didn't even dare to take a step, he didn't know where to go.

A road divides into two ends, when you open your eyes, you face the front, and behind you, you face the back.

There is fog ahead, and I don't know where it leads.There is also fog in the future, and I don't know where it leads.

Xu Qingfeng looked up, but there was still white mist, only the empty dirt road under his feet was clearly visible.

After wandering for a long time, Xu Qingfeng turned around, as if he had chosen a way back. He walked fast and hurriedly, with a decisive attitude.

Xu Qingfeng kept walking for a long time, this time without Chen Ke's back as a guide and motivation, Xu Qingfeng almost suspected that he had chosen the wrong direction.Until a clear female voice sounded from the front:

"Son..."

"Son—"

"Young master, young master——"

This voice was very familiar, and he kept calling him anxiously. Xu Qingfeng had been walking for so long, and the surroundings were forever silent. At this moment, a voice sounded, and he chased after that voice, running forward without hesitation.

who is it?Xu Qingfeng wanted to ask, but couldn't make a sound.He had no choice but to keep going, he didn't pay attention to his feet, he stumbled, and when he fell, his body fell heavily.

The pain in his abdomen was severe, and his body was also very heavy. Xu Qingfeng only felt that there was tens of thousands of pressures pressing on him and his eyelids.

"Son..."

Xu Qingfeng opened his eyes with difficulty, the blur faded away, and the surroundings were no longer white, replaced by Aman's joyful expression.

"Ah...full?"

"Young master, don't talk, just wake up!" Aman shed tears gratefully, folded his hands together, and bowed in an unknown direction.He hurriedly fetched a glass of water again, and half-supported Xu Qingfeng, "My lord, drink some water."

Xu Qingfeng was already awake.He looked around quietly, this is a room with earthen kang and earthen walls, it doesn't seem to be an inn.It seems that it is not too early, and candles are lit in the house.And apart from Aman and him, there was no one else.

Xu Qingfeng drank a cup of tea with Aman's hand.The jade stone he had been wearing around his neck didn't seem to be tucked under his collar, but when he lowered his head, the jade stone on his neck slipped off.

The jade looked different, brighter.

Xu Qingfeng wanted to ask a lot of questions, but he didn't know where to start.My mind is dull and dull.

Aman supported Xu Qingfeng to lie down again, covered Xu Qingfeng with a quilt, put the jade on Xu Qingfeng's chest again, and said gratefully: "I see that the stone of life and death keeps shining, so I know you will be fine, my lord."

After speaking, Aman showed a smile.

Seeing Aman Mingli's face, Xu Qingfeng was stunned.

Stone of life and death?

Just as Xu Qingfeng was about to ask, there was a light knock on the door, and Aman almost jumped up, running happily to open the door.

"Brother Zuo! Young Master is awake!"

"Really?" Zuo Ming hurried to the bedside, "My lord!"

Xu Qingfeng smiled weakly.

Zuo Ming looked very embarrassed, not to mention the blood stains on his clothes and messy hair, like a refugee fleeing for his life.Only then did Xu Qingfeng realize that Aman was similar, his eyes were bloodshot, as if he hadn't slept for a long time.

"Where is this? What's going on?" Xu Qingfeng said, his voice was a little astringent, and his voice was floating.

Ah Man's face wrinkled, and he burst into tears: "My lord, you have been injured and have been in a coma for a long time..."

Zuo Ming also had red eyes, "My lord, you were seriously injured, your wound was poisoned, and you fell into a coma for three days and three nights, we are going crazy..."

"How many days?"

"Three days."
