Text Chapter 884 There is a Hou Ye in Qianzhou
Yu Xiang lingered on the tip of his nose, and his delicate face appeared in front of him, Ye Yinfeng couldn't help but lose his mind, he stood on the pontoon bridge in a daze, looking at the smoky river. At this time, the drizzle was pouring down, the wet and cold breath rolled up bursts of white fog, and the wisps of smoke on the pontoon bridge rose and fell, and gradually the pedestrians on the pontoon began to increase. There are people carrying baskets, there are people driving ox carts, there are students carrying bookcases, and there are silver-haired old men carrying children.
"What's the situation?" Ling Tianyun took Old Man Zhang to Ye Yinfeng, who was looking at the river in a daze, and he couldn't help but ask curiously. However, what responded to him was a blank eye, Ye Yinfeng recovered from that trance, he didn't explain anything, just shook his head and walked in the direction of Naqianzhou City.
Ling Tianyun smiled helplessly, he took the old man and followed behind Ye Yinfeng, and the three figures quickly merged with the figures on the pontoon. The fog is thicker, and the dense drizzle is also falling more urgently, the spring rain is like the literati waving the pen and ink in his hand, the smoke is foggy, the pontoon bridge rippling on the river surface is embedded in the smoke and rain confusion, the clear river water is gurgling and flowing, reflecting the figures of people, the rain is like a thick mist, and the smoke is like a blank.
The city wall is not too high, and Ye Yinfeng is not the first time to enter Qianzhou City, but the second time. Although he had a clue to the Southern Barbarian Wilderness for the first time, he almost died under the Gu worm of the one-eyed old man, but this time he was determined to get the path to the Southern Barbarian Wilderness, and he had to rush to Linglong Valley. He knew that the people of the Firmament Gate should have left a long time ago, if he and Ling Tianyun hadn't been chased and killed inexplicably along the way, they should have already arrived in the Southern Barbarian Wilderness.
In a hurry, he and Ling Tianyun fled to Qianzhou, which had deviated from their route to the Southern Barbarian Wilderness, and when they came to this unfamiliar Qianzhou, they naturally had to find a new path to the Southern Barbarian Wilderness. The difference is only a thousand miles, this is their biggest problem now, and in this Qianzhou on the border with the Southern Han Kingdom, it is very rare to find people who know the wilderness of the Southern Barbarians, although the one-eyed old man knows, but he has never taken a stand, and he is also suspicious, which makes people have to guard against it.
There was a cold light in the eyes of the one-eyed old man, and he looked coldly at the three people standing in front of the dark mottled courtyard. Then he opened the door of the courtyard, and returned to the courtyard alone without saying a word, as if the three people outside the courtyard had nothing to do with him, and how could he have already calculated in his heart that the old man would definitely take the blue-shirted young man back to the coffin shop full of gloomy atmosphere again.
Ling Tianyun looked at the courtyard full of all kinds of coffins with great curiosity, and the coffins exuded a thick dead aura, as if the coffin contained dead people waiting to be buried in the earth. The gloomy aura was blown by a gust of cold wind, which made Ling Tianyun shiver, and then his gaze fell on the one-eyed old man who stood under the eaves with a gloomy face, he felt that the gloomy aura of all the coffins in this courtyard was not as good as that weird one-eyed old man.
After a few words, the one-eyed old man naturally didn't have a good face, and one of his remaining eyes was shining with a faint life-like light staring at Ling Tianyun's body. Like a poisonous snake locking his terrifying aura, Ling Tianyun's heart tightened, he subconsciously took a step back, and pressed closely next to Ye Yinfeng. The one-eyed old man exuded a strange aura all over his body, like a poisonous snake that had lived in the depths of the earth for a long time.
Although he knew about this one-eyed old man from the mouths of Ye Yinfeng and Old Man Zhang, he still subconsciously condensed the true qi of his whole body. As soon as the pure Jiuyang True Qi was turned on by him, the wet and cold breath began to change slightly, and the gloomy cold air was stirred by the blazing Jiuyang True Qi around him, and the breath became a little violent, and the cold breath suddenly rushed in all directions, and he was like the scorching sun, and the breath of the Supreme Yang enveloped him.
Feeling the blazing aura that was rolling around Ling Tianyun's body, the only remaining eye of the one-eyed old man shrank slightly, and a faint dark light flashed and disappeared. Then his gaze fell on the calm blue-shirted young man again, and after sweeping his gaze, he finally fixed on the white-haired old man Zhang.
"Old man Zhang, you are willing to brave this rain to come, presumably just to intercede for these two little guys. The old man said last time, you will definitely come back, it seems that the friendship between us is really not as good as these two little dolls, this time I can help them, but there is one requirement, that is, you must bring the old man. The old man went to Linglong Valley with them, and if he didn't agree to this request, then the old man wouldn't say anything. The one-eyed old man's tone was tough and confident.
Ye Yinfeng looked at this coffin with black paint, and he found that there seemed to be an extra coffin in this courtyard, and only one night later, there was another coffin. He clearly felt a wisp of dead air oozing from the extra coffin, it was the real dead air, the dead air emanating from the dead man. He had a keen sense of breath, and he suddenly felt that this courtyard had a little more strange aura, but as for what was weird, he couldn't say.
"Ye Gongzi, what do you think?" After the old man listened to the one-eyed old man's words, he asked Ye Yinfeng who was contemplative. "This dare is good, Senior Guan personally led the way, our brothers naturally can't ask for it, but why do Senior Guan want to go to Linglong Valley?" Ling Tianyun, who was beside him, took Old Man Zhang's words and replied.
"If you are allowed to go to Linglong Valley, will I be allowed to go to Linglong Valley as an old man? Since you agreed, then let's discuss when to set off, of course, we are a small team on this road, both of you have to listen to the old man, otherwise it will delay your journey, and the old man doesn't care. The one-eyed old man rolled his eyelids and snorted coldly, and replied very unpleasantly.
"Yes, but the seniors must not harm us brothers, although we are a small team, but we do not restrict our freedom. Since the seniors also want to go to Linglong Valley, they must have their own affairs, although the strength of the two of us is insignificant, but some emergencies can still be dealt with. Ye Yinfeng pondered for a while, and then he continued.
"Ye boy, sometimes you can't be too smart, it's always good to be confused." The one-eyed old man smiled coldly and said something inexplicable. Only Ye Yinfeng could understand this sentence, but Ye Yinfeng didn't have any expression, and a confident smile swept into his breezy face, as if he had already made up his mind. But Ling Tianyun could hear it in a fog, he didn't know what kind of dumb riddle Ye Yinfeng and the one-eyed old man were playing.
"Old man Zhang, you can bring their two little babies in five days, and in five days we will set off for the Southern Barbarian Wilderness. Remember that after five days, obsolescence does not wait. If you have the opportunity to solve your own affairs as soon as possible, these two little babies have the ability to explain your affairs, and I hope you have a happy ending. The one-eyed old man finally gave the order to evict the guest, and after saying this, he went straight into the dark room.
Ye Yinfeng's mood had a feeling of sudden enlightenment, and a big stone that was pressing on the bottom of his heart was finally put down. Although the one-eyed old man's gloomy tone was very displeasing to him, he finally agreed to take them to the Southern Barbarian Wilderness, and they didn't have to be like headless flies without their way. Everything seemed to be going smoothly again, but he knew that all this was not as smooth as it was indicated, and there was a more brutal battle waiting for them, and they would have to face the Firmament Gate, one of the four ancient martial arts.
"We've been followed." Ling Tianyun cautiously said to Ye Yinfeng, and the two of them protected Old Man Zhang in the middle. The three of them walked on the long drizzly street, and as the figures of the three of them blended into the crowd of passers-by, there were a few figures following them unhurriedly. Ye Yinfeng had naturally discovered these stalkers a long time ago, but his face was still calm and pretending to know nothing.
Ling Tianyun, who had always been unable to hide things in his stomach, was not like Ye Yinfeng, who hid things in his heart, although his voice was not loud, but it still spread. As he said that, the figures who followed closely behind them paused slightly, and finally the figures unscrupulously accelerated their pace.
"I said, old man, didn't I warn you yesterday, you still dare to come to the city, but your luck is very good today, our Hou Ye wants to see you. Do you go with us or let the master take you to see the Hou Ye, I said how can you be so lucky with this old man, the Hou Ye has just returned to Qianzhou from the imperial capital, and the first thing is to see you. A wicked man suddenly ran in front of the three of them, and then the wicked man clasped his hands around his chest and said to Old Man Zhang.
"The old man is a grass man, where is this qualification to make Hou Ye worry, this master is not joking like this." Old man Zhang's expression was very natural and he didn't have the slightest fluster, and he said lightly to the evil man. Ye Yinfeng and Ling Tianyun beside him had calm expressions on their faces, they naturally knew the identity of the Hou Ye, but they also wanted to know what the Hou Ye had to do with this old man Zhang Yuxian.
"I said old man, I was missed by our marquis, what a kindness that is, you don't want to toast or eat, but you have to eat and drink. My lord said that I will invite you to the mansion of the lord of Hou no matter what, for the sake of your age, our lord is soft-hearted, so he will not be rude. When the wicked man heard this, he immediately said angrily. He also glanced at the other wicked men who were standing close to him, and they immediately rolled up their sleeves and came to catch the old man.
Seeing this, Ling Tianyun was immediately furious, he stepped forward, and the violent aura around him rose, and the pure yang aura enveloped those evil men like a ball of fire. Feeling a blazing aura in front of them, the footsteps of those villains couldn't help but pause, a flash of horror flashed in their eyes, but their bodies didn't dare to take another step forward, the young man in front of them seemed to use some kind of witchcraft, and the blazing breath made them unbearable.
Old man Zhang waved his hand gently, and he said to the villains: "Since the Hou Ye is invited, then this is the blessing of the grass people, and the old man will go to the Hou Mansion with you." ”
Blue bricks and red tiles, leisurely and quietly, drizzle, smoke like jade, withered branches spit green, this is the palace of the soil emperor of Qianzhou. The three of them followed the wicked men for about half an hour, and finally came to this Hou Mansion. It is worthy of the Hou Ye's mansion, the scale of this Hou Mansion almost gathers the wealth of the entire Qianzhou, the tall courtyard wall, the mighty and angry stone lions, and the vermilion lacquer courtyard gate.
Several menacing house slaves looked at this old man and young man with unkind eyes and swaggered into the Hou Mansion. Welcoming Ye Yinfeng and the other three into the Hou Mansion, those villains fled like a pardon, they still had a frightened look in their eyes, but they didn't dare to look at Ling Tianyun and Ye Yinfeng.
There is a Hou Ye in Qianzhou, a rich party, willing to give, and has the reputation of a good Hou, and there are naturally rumors about this Hou Ye in Qianzhou City. It's just that the people in Qianzhou rarely see the Hou Ye himself, and the daily good deeds are all done by the Hou Mansion steward, and this Hou Ye who only hears his name but rarely sees his true face.
