Qingfeng decided to study the contents of the book carefully after returning home. He clearly followed the instructions in the book, so why was Feng Zuxue still unhappy?

But now is not the time to worry about this, the most urgent thing is to check this monk named Huo Xian, who has a close relationship with the City Lord's Mansion, maybe he can find something new.Feng Zhuxue also had this intention, so the two turned back and followed Huo Xian.

Fortunately, Huo Xian was dragged by the monks to have a conversation and left late, so Feng Cuixue and Qingfeng had just returned to the original meeting place when they saw Huo Xian leaving the hall door and leading Zhang Wenyan to the east of the street.

Forgive Huo Xian, he didn't expect that he failed to send someone to follow him, but was followed instead.

According to previous experience, Qingfeng thought that Feng Zhuxue would follow up with a big swagger, and "follow" him openly, and he was already prepared in his heart to catch him in time.

But I didn't expect Feng Cuixue to be very proficient in tracking people, making full use of all the bunkers on the street, the distance is just right, not too far away to follow the target, and not too close to be noticed by the other party.Even the pace was always consistent with Huo Xian's, and the inaudible footsteps were hidden in the footsteps of the predecessors.Even though he has no cultivation base, he can hide his aura to the point where it is almost undetectable.

Feng Zhuxue seemed to be aware of it, and raised his eyebrows at Qingfeng proudly, with a bright expression on his face: I am amazing!

Feng Cuixue was also a little surprised, since he was so proficient in tracking skills, it must mean that he was an all-around talent who knew all [-] skills in the past!

Thinking of it this way, Feng Cuixue was even more proud.

Huo Xian, who was walking in front, didn't talk too much, Feng Jixue was far away from Qingfeng, and he could only roughly hear that Huo Xian was asking about Zhang Wenyan's affairs in the city, and it really seemed that he had just been in the city not long ago.

Zhang Wenyan was still half a step behind, with his shoulders shrunk slightly, he looked a little more cautious than when he was in the hall before, as if he was afraid of being alone with Huo Xian.

On the way, Huo Xian also entered a jewelry store, but walked out after a while.Qingfeng and Feng Zuixue followed Huo Xian all the way to the east, and after walking for about a stick of incense, they came to a luxurious courtyard with red walls and green tiles.

In front of the vermilion lacquered gate stood several monks with swords, all of whom were in full battle and guarded tightly.Seeing Huo Xian and Zhang Wenyan approaching, he respectfully saluted Huo Xian and made way for them.Huo Xian stepped into the door first, and when the vermilion lacquered door was about to close, he looked back as if feeling something.

Seeing this, Zhang Wenyan also looked back suspiciously, and saw that the alleyway behind him was empty, and there was nothing there.

Zhang Wenyan's head was full of question marks, and when he turned his head again, Huo Xian had already gone far, so he hurriedly rushed up with small steps.

street corner.

"Oh, I was almost discovered." Feng Qixue poked his head out and looked around, and the gate of the city lord's mansion returned to the heavily guarded appearance just now, "The last time Brother Junmei brought me here, the guards were not so strict. .”

Qingfeng: "..."

Feng Cuixue didn't know why Qingfeng suddenly "...", so he also "..." with a bewildered expression.

Feng Cuixue didn't bother to deal with Qingfeng, and quickly put his doubts behind him, and then focused on the City Lord's Mansion - he didn't expect that Huo Xian lived in the City Lord's Mansion, which was exactly what he wanted.Feng Cuixue had originally planned to go to the City Lord's Mansion to check if there was any trace of the Heart-eating Vine, but now the two things were combined into one, which saved a lot of trouble.

The monks guarding the gate are all dressed in azure robes that belong to the Seven Stars Gate. It's hard not to recognize them. These monks are obviously brought here by Huo Xian.With so many guards, it was obviously impossible to sneak in, so Qingfeng pointed to the walls on both sides, signaling to climb over the walls.

It's just that the two of them didn't expect that even the wall was guarded by monks at intervals, and there was also a team of monks patrolling back and forth, as if the entire city lord's mansion was besieged with iron barrels.

This battle is too exaggerated.

"This is treating yourself as a treasure." Feng Cuixue mocked.

The two evaded the patrolling team. Qingfeng quietly brought down a monk and cast a small spell on him. When he woke up, he would only think he was asleep.

"Let's go, let's go." Feng Zhuxue urged, then raised his head, looked at the three-person-high courtyard wall in front of him, and fell silent.

At this time, a big hand with distinct bones stretched out from the side, Feng Zuxue looked at the courtyard wall, then at Qingfeng, tangled in curiosity and disgust, and reluctantly put his hand on it.

Then, Feng Zhuxue felt his body suddenly soaring into the air, Qingfeng's hand was extremely steady, and he wrapped around Feng Zhuxue's waist with one hand, and after a few ups and downs, he landed on a tall eaves in the courtyard.

Looking down from the eaves, you can have a panoramic view of the small half of the City Lord's Mansion. This mansion was built in a dignified manner, with brackets and cornices, majestic and majestic.

Coincidentally, as soon as the two of them landed, a team of guards walked up to them!

Feng Zuixue: "..."

With quick hands and quick eyes, Qingfeng pushed the wind into his arms and hid behind the tree. The trunk was not too thick, and the two of them had to face each other close to each other to barely hide their figure.

The warm and light breath fell on the side of Feng Zhuxue's ear, and the chests of the two of them were pressed against their chests, and their shoulders were pressed against their shoulders. Because of the closeness of their bodies, Feng Zhuxue could clearly feel Qingfeng's steady heartbeat. Xue tilted her head, her eyes reflected Qingfeng's side face with distinct features, as usual without any disturbance.

After the guards passed by, Qingfeng decisively let go of the wind and snow, lowered his eyes slightly, with a serious expression, "Sorry."

Feng Cuixue felt that Qingfeng's words were not sincere, and glanced at the corridor door on the other side, "Why don't we hide over there?"

Qingfeng followed the direction of the wind and snow, and there was a corridor on the right side of the two. The two sides of the arched corridor door happened to be the best shelter. Here, they will definitely not be as close as before, and they will always worry about being discovered by the guards.

Qingfeng said calmly, "Really? I didn't see it."

The two quickly walked through the corridor, avoiding a group of patrolling guards. Outside the corridor, a hundred flowers were blooming. It was clearly the depths of winter, but the City Lord's Mansion was full of spring and scenery, full of vitality.

"Huo Xian really doesn't treat himself as an outsider." Feng Cuixue chuckled, no matter if it was the guards outside the gate or the attendants in the mansion, all of them were dressed as disciples of the Seven Stars Gate, and it was obvious that Huo Xian brought them from the Seven Stars Gate The accompanying disciples who came over.Such a big change of blood in the city lord's mansion with such great fanfare obviously did not take the city lord here seriously.

"Go to the study to have a look." Qingfeng agreed.

The mansion is quite big, but fortunately, the layout is neat, and the location of the study is easy to find. With the wind and snow, Qingfeng quickly found the location of the study.

There is an enchantment outside the study room, but unfortunately, one of the two is immune to the enchantment, and the other is much stronger than the person who arranged the enchantment, so they completely regard the enchantment as nothing, and without disturbing the people in the room, lightly fell on the roof.

As soon as they landed on the roof, the two heard Huo Xian's voice coming from the room. It seemed that they had indeed found the right location.

"It's such a big city, four gates are closed, where else can people hide?" Huo Xian sat on the main seat, his voice was still gentle and peaceful, but there was a trace of majesty for no reason.

One of the servants in the hall said: "The hidden stakes of the Fang family are all over the city. The crown prince has the help of the young master of the Fang family. It is really hard to find a hiding place. Just give us some more time..."

Huo Xian was fiddling with the jade butterfly pendant bought in the market, raised his eyelashes, and interrupted casually: "I found the trace the day before yesterday, but someone ran away from you, how much more time do you want me to give you?" ?”

The subordinate was stunned for a moment, and broke out in a cold sweat, "It will take another three days, and we will definitely catch them!"

Huo Xian laughed when he heard the words, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, and the subordinate immediately became more nervous.But then Huo Xian waved his hand magnanimously, "I'll give you three more days, go."

The subordinates did not expect that they would be let off so easily, they hurriedly thanked and saluted, and exited the door.

Feng Cuixue on the roof was slightly surprised, no wonder Fang Jianhong and the prince disappeared, were they being chased by Huo Xian?

After the subordinate left, the voice in the room sounded again, and Huo Xian mocked lightly, "It's impossible to be lazy and shirk."

"The Fang family's hidden stakes are all over the city. I don't know if there are his hidden stakes around me. It took me so long to find no trace of them."

Zhang Wenyan hurriedly said: "Hahaha, with you here, the City Lord's Mansion is impenetrable, how could there be spies."

Huo Xian glanced at him noncommittally, and called the name of another person in the room, "Xuan Qing."

The young monk on the other side responded in a low voice.

"kill him."

Zhang Wenyan's face turned pale instantly: "!!!"

"Master Huo Xian! Never! My loyalty to you can be learned from the sun and the moon!" Zhang Wenyan knelt down on the ground, tearfully trying to hug Huo Xian's thigh.

Of course, it was impossible for Huo Xian to be hugged by him. Zhang Wenyan struggled forward with both hands on the ground, and from the corner of his eye, he saw a young man named Xuan Qing walking past him to the door.

It wasn't until Xuanqing opened the door and left that Zhang Wenyan realized belatedly, he seemed to have misunderstood something...

Huo Xian's voice sounded like a smile but not a smile, "Mr. Zhang, what are you doing?"

Zhang Wenyan choked: "..."

Just now that subordinate didn't go far, Xuan Qing went back quickly, the knife on his waist was still clean and bright, it seemed that he hadn't done anything bloody with it.It's just that the faint smell of blood on Xuanqing's body made Zhang Wenyan unstoppably terrified.

Huo Xian was still playing with the jade butterfly between his fingers, and told Xuanqing: "Go and bring the city lord here, whether it's by coercion or temptation, or soul searching, within two days, find out the whereabouts of the prince."

Xuan Qing had no objection and silently nodded.

"If there is no progress this time, I'll take you as a questioner." Huo Xian spoke softly.

Zhang Wenyan couldn't help shivering when he thought of Huo Xian's ruthlessness when he ordered Xuan Qing to kill his subordinates just now.

However, looking at Xuan Qing's silent and calm expression, as if what Huo Xian said had nothing to do with him, Zhang Wenyan couldn't calm down. After all, Xuan Qing came to the City Lord's Mansion four or five years ago to work, and he Assisting the city lord together, although the relationship between the two is not close, but they are not strangers, at least they can be regarded as colleagues.

...Although, Zhang Wenyan did not expect that Xuan Qing was Huo Xian's eyeliner.As soon as Huo Xianfang entered the city, Xuan Qing went out to greet him, and reported their recent movements to Huo Xian in detail.That is to say, they have been living under Huo Xian's surveillance all these years.

However, Zhang Wenyan was not surprised. After all, Xuanqing was a disciple of Qixingmen, so it was only natural for him to work for Qixingmen.But he didn't expect that Huo Xian would be so ruthless that his subordinates would kill him whenever he wanted, without any reason.Zhang Wenyan glanced at Xuanqing involuntarily, and said in his heart: Listen to Huo Xian, if Xuanqing can't kill the prince this time, Xuanqing will also be dealt with.

Concerned about this fellowship in his heart, Zhang Wenyan hesitated, but still tentatively opened his mouth, "I have a plan, maybe it can relieve Huo Xianshi's worries."

Huo Xian was surprised, his gaze shifted from Zhang Wenyan's trembling legs to his sweaty round face, and he smiled, "Let's hear it."

Zhang Wenyan swallowed nervously, "The city owner may not know the whereabouts of the prince, and the prince doesn't trust him." Seeing Huo Xian's expression of interest, Zhang Wenyan regained his composure, and then said: "The prince is coming to Danxia City It has been many days, but I have never met the city lord, and the only few times I let my subordinates pass on the message, so... Maybe the city lord doesn't know where he is now."

"According to the plan below, we can invite you into the urn."

"We don't know the location of the prince, but the prince knows where the city lord is. As long as we release the news to let the prince know that the city lord is dying soon, we will definitely come back to save him."

Huo Xian didn't take it seriously, "Since the prince doesn't trust the city lord, why did he come to save him?"

Zhang Wenyan smiled mysteriously, "The immortal master doesn't know something, the city lord still holds a copy of what the prince wants, so the prince will definitely—"

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Wenyan saw Huo Xian's eyes narrowing slightly, and raised his hand, so he stopped talking abruptly.

……what happened?

The author says:

Feng Cuixue: "The last time Brother Junmei brought me here, the guards weren't so strict."

Qingfeng: Feng Cuixue always talks about 'brother handsome', I really don't want to hear it at all, but I dare not say it.

Feng Cuixue: "You got the backup script, right?"
