Inside the city, Yuanshi Mansion.
In the large living room, Marshal Hong had a happy face. He was sitting on the large wooden chair at the top of the living room with a piece of paper in his hand. "Junior Brother, there is news. Li Yan finally left the Military Advisor's Mansion and entered the city today. I’m here, I don’t know what I’m doing here.”
Under the shadow of one of the four thick pillars in the hall, the vague figure of an unusually stocky man in a soap robe slightly emerged. The hall pillar he was hiding in at this time was no longer where it was last time. It seemed that he randomly picked a hall pillar every time to hide his figure behind it, and the sound of the urn echoed lowly in the hall.
"Brother, if you calculate the time, this person has stayed in the valley much longer than the last disciple. According to the last calculation, the previous disciple should have been in the valley for seventy-seven forty-nine days. The question arises at this time, which is also consistent with the Buddhist and Taoist teachings on building a stove in thirty-six, forty-nine, and eighty-one small weeks."
"Well, I think so too, and say so. Come on, there are two things that can be confirmed. One is that the exercises Ji Wenhe practiced are legally required to be the Little Zhou Tian's Heart Method that can be used in seventy-seven forty-nine days. This is undoubtedly a Taoist method; the second is that Li Yan should be a small person. "Zhou Tian has already mastered it."
"Brother, these two points should be certain, but there are still two points that are still uncertain. One is that if Li Yan can cultivate to the point where he is successful in Little Zhou Tian, then Is Ji Wenhe really used as a successor, or is Li Yan not good enough to use as his poison-inducing body? Secondly, if Li Yan can succeed in cultivation, then the death of the previous disciple can show their inner strength. Is the Dharma really profound and difficult for ordinary people to understand?"
"Junior brother is right, these two points will still have a great impact on the next actions. If Li Yan is still used as a poison, If his skills are unique, then we must make good use of Li Yan and learn about them slowly, so that even if we get the skills from him, we will not know the secrets of it. " < /p>
"Then what should we do now, in the opinion of senior brother?"
"Well, since he can enter the city today, then there will be a next time, and the next time, this time There is no immediate contact, so as not to overstep Meng Lang and make him suspicious, and it will also alert Ji Wenhe, so the people below should keep a close eye on him to see what he is doing this time, and then we can make the next plan. "
"Yes, senior brother"
The hall was silent, and after a while, Hong Linying disappeared.
"Captain Liu, you don't have to be like this. Fortunately, you gave me some advice last time I entered the city. I haven't had the chance to thank you yet."
Li Yan quickly took a few steps and helped him Hold Liu Chengyong's arm.
"I don't dare, I don't dare. I don't have anything to say. I'm just saying a few words." Liu Chengyong couldn't help but feel overjoyed when he saw Li Yan's sincere face. He had also heard about the third runner-up some time ago. When the master accepted another disciple, it was said that he was from Daqingshan. At that time, the road guide that Li Guoxin showed him that day flashed through his mind, but he was not sure. When he saw Li Yan arriving today,Also accompanied by Chen An and others from the Military Advisor's Office, they naturally immediately understood that what they guessed was true.
Although he belongs to the lineage of Marshal Zhonghong, no one in the powerful army of the third army knows what a benefit it is to be able to make friends with his disciples at the same time.
Chen An and Li Yin couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this. They looked at each other and felt sad in their hearts. Recently, they had not seen many opportunities to show a good look to this man. Today, My nerves are on the line again, why are the two of me so unlucky?
Liu Chengyong withdrew the gesture of crossing his hands and secretly raised his eyes to look at Li Yan. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart that the boy from the mountain village he met back then was now an official of the eighth rank. He was said to have made a meteoric rise. It's not an exaggeration. This is because there are people in the court who want to be officials.
Li Yan had something on his mind and wanted to see Li Shan and Li Yu as soon as possible. He didn’t know what etiquette he should show at this time, so he could only hold his fists and said, "Captain Liu, I have some things to do when I enter the city now." We have something to do, how about we talk about it next time?"
"Oh, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, I would like to send you a respectful greeting, Lord Li." Liu Chengyong stepped out of the way, and the soldiers behind him also retreated. The spear returned.
Li Yin stepped forward and handed the horse rein to Li Yan, "Master, please mount the horse."
Li Yan smiled awkwardly and said, "Let's tie the horse here for now. , let's walk over to the city."
After being stunned, Li Yan understood. Li Yan was afraid that his riding skills were too bad and he would break into the city if he couldn't control it well. A disaster.
Chen An laughed when he saw this, "Old Liu, we have put these horses here. You can arrange it. If we haven't shown up when you are on duty, please contact the back. The brother on duty informed me."
Liu Chengyong was also a sophisticated man, so he agreed with a smile.
After they left, except for a few soldiers who were still checking people entering and leaving the city, the rest of the soldiers moved closer to Liu Chengyong. "Liu Tou, is this person really the person we met some time ago? We haven't seen each other in February, and he has changed a lot."
Liu Chengyong also sighed, "Seriously, it's so strange. Yesterday."
"Liu Tou, you were very fond of him at the beginning, but you still have these old friends, and you may not be able to take care of him in the future," said the first soldier, who was also on duty that day. of one person.
"Liu Tou, it was not the turn of the brothers to work with you that day. Have you really met Mr. Li?" Another person said.
"Liu Tou, is this Mr. Li the disciple accepted by Mr. Ji, who has been widely spread recently?" Several more soldiers asked.
After Liu Chengyong finished sighing, he was immediately asked by several of his subordinates. He felt that his brothers were good at everything. When war came, they would do what they were ordered to do and they would fight when encountering the enemy. However, they were usually too lax and even They all lacked the concept of hierarchy, waved their hands and said, "I really have a chance encounter with this Mr. Li. He is undoubtedly Mr. Ji's disciple. Okay, okay, you don’t need to ask around, you are on duty, you, you, and you, lead these horses to the doorway and keep them under good supervision. "
Li Yan and the others walked quickly on the street. Li Yan was anxious and asked Chen An and Li Yin to lead the way to the "Natural Wine House". After half a cup of tea, they arrived in front of the wine shop. Li Yan found the street store he visited last time and walked in, followed closely by Chen An and Li Yin.
As soon as they entered, the sharp-eyed waiter greeted them. Come up, "Hey, three officials, do you want to drink or eat here?" "
These waiters are so discerning. They are used to seeing people coming and going from north to south, and their thoughts are extremely exquisite. When they saw Li Yan and the three of them had no luggage, one of them was wearing a black robe. The two military masters followed closely behind, so he knew that they were not VIP guests, but came to drink or eat.
Li Yan stopped and looked around, oh, he was just watching from a distance last time. When they came in today, it turned out that what they entered was just one of the street facades of this restaurant. There were seven or eight facades arranged horizontally inside, and each one was connected. It was already late afternoon, and many diners had almost finished eating. , but there is still a lot of guessing, talking, and laughter, and it is still very lively.

"Oh, I'm here." I'm looking for Li Yu, who is studying here. Please look for me. "Li Yan said politely.
The waiter in the shop was stunned, and carefully looked at the three people in front of him, and thought to himself, "Could it be that Xiaoyu caused trouble outside? That's not right, Xiaoyu, a child, rarely goes out.
Li introduced the waiter in the shop to be in a daze. He stepped forward and patted his shoulder with his hand, "Our young master is talking about something. Are you deaf or mute?" "
The waiter in the shop was startled, and immediately recovered from his confusion. Seeing Li Yin, who looked unhappy, he even apologized: "Master, calm down, sir, calm down, I will call him now." "He didn't see Li Yanzheng looking at him apologetically, turned around and walked towards the back hall.
Li Yan acted so innocently and unreasonably, and he only had no choice but to go to him in the valley. Chen An, Li Yin and a few women who are familiar with their nature have only acted arrogantly a few times. However, people like Chen An and Li Yin, who are used to fighting and killing all day long, are not so good-tempered towards these ordinary people. They usually There was a murderous spirit in his words.
Chen Anke saw Li Yan's apologetic look, and thought of his attitude towards Liu Chengyong just now at the city gate, and thought that this man was crazy. Now that he was on the normal line, he smiled and said, "Master, these thieves are just messing around, but don't miss the master's business. "
Li Yan watched Chen An look at him with some doubts, and his heart trembled. He also understood that something was wrong with his performance today. Now he is a person with a cruel temperament, so he squinted his eyes. He glanced at the two of them.
"I still need you to teach me. Okay, you two stay away from me. I want to talk to my brother, so don't disturb my peace." ”
When Chen An and Li Yin saw it, their expressions turned bitter and they thought, "Okay, this man is sick again. Why can't he understand what he said?"
After a while, The waiter brought Li Yu over. Just now he went to the back hall to find Li Yu. Because Li Yu is the nephew of Manager Li here, and Li Yu is usually very diligent and conscientious as an apprentice. As for his position, he is also very popular among people.
After finding Li Yu, the waiter asked Li Yu if he had gone out recently and if he had caused any trouble. Tell him that there is a man who looks like your noble son, and he has brought two military masters to look for him outside.
The timid Li Yu's face suddenly turned pale with fright, and he pointedly said that he had never gone out recently. He had been in the back hall and had not even had time to go to the front hall to help deliver it. Tea and other things, this made the waiter feel relieved.
At first Li Yu didn’t understand, what does it mean to be like a noble son? It's okay, it's okay if it's not, but when he came back to his senses, he thought of one person and suddenly became happy. In the past few months, people in the village had told him about Li Yan. After joining the army, he also They worshiped the famous Master Ji Jun as their master. With the temperament of Li Yan, himself and Li Shan who were born in a rural mountain village, not to mention the past two months, even if it comes to the previous year, does it mean that wearing luxurious clothes means that he is a noble son?
Li Yan felt excited when he saw Li Yu. He had not been out of the valley for several months, and now he saw his childhood playmate again. Nostalgia suddenly rose in his chest, making him miss his hometown again. He took a few quick steps to meet the green hills, the small mountain village, his father and mother, and the people and things in the village.
Li Yu came to the front hall and saw a person standing at the counter from a distance. He was wearing a black robe and had an ordinary appearance, but he was so familiar. Although the temperament exuding from his body had changed somewhat, he still recognized him at a glance. , tears suddenly flowed out, and he ran over whining. The waiter next to him sighed, this child is good at everything, but he loves to cry. Every time someone from his hometown comes to see him, he always bursts into tears. It seemed like I had been wronged a lot in the store.
"Brother Yan, Brother Yan, wuwu..." Li Yu wiped her tears while running, which immediately caused the surrounding diners to stop their movements and start to watch.
Li Yan was also excited, his eyes were a little red, and he hugged Li Yu who rushed over.
Chen An and Li Yin looked at each other, and then Chen An quickly walked to the waiter.
"Xiao Er, there is still a private room. Let my young master and his old friend come in and talk!" They both saw that there were too many people here and it was not a place to talk, not to mention that half of the older children were there. There is so much crying here that others don’t know what to do when they see it.
The waiter quickly replied, "Yes, yes, yes, there are some on this floor and some on the second floor."
Chen An looked at the busy diners on this floor, "Then there are those on the second floor." Go downstairs!"
He walked up to Li Yan who was comforting Li Yu, "Sir, there are many people here, let's go to the private room on the second floor to talk."
Li Yan I just feel that hereNoisy, when I couldn't talk to Li Yu, I was very happy to hear Chen An say this, and thought in my heart, "This Chen An is really a good person, with a clear mind."
They followed the waiter here. In a private room on the second floor, the waiter brought a pot of tea and was invited out by Li Yan. Then Li Yan asked Chen An and Li Yin to wait for him outside the hotel, but he never expected to be rejected by Chen An and Li Yin. On the pretext of protecting Li Yan's safety, they could not leave Li Yan's side for a moment. In the end, they had to be locked out of the door, leaving only Li Yu talking to Li Yan in the room.
After two cups of tea, Li Yan caught Li Yu's reluctant gaze again, and then rushed to the "Iron Pavilion" with Chen An and Li Yin. He was also very happy to find Li Shan. After the meeting, Li Yu left dozens of taels of silver to be taken back to the village to his parents the next time someone came to the village. Then he wandered around the city again. Li Yan bought a set of clothes and went with Chen An and Li Yin. After leaving the city, he took the horses and returned to the Military Advisor's Mansion.
As soon as he entered the valley, Li Yan felt a spiritual consciousness coming from Jijun's room. It quickly scanned his body, and then carefully passed it on the newly bought clothes and packages in his hand. After one lap, it disappeared without a trace.
Li Yan pretended not to know, and deliberately glanced at the first stone room. When he saw that the door of the stone room was closed, he muttered a few words and walked towards his own stone room.
After entering the room, Li Yan poured a glass of water and drank it with a relaxed expression. He sat on the chair and rested for a while, then stood up and closed the door.
After closing the door, Li Yan felt it again and found that there was no consciousness, and his face darkened.
Today's move into the city made him confirm the following points
Firstly, Chen An and Li Yin were indeed the surveillance people placed around him for the third army division. Don't look at them. On the surface, people are respectful to themselves and look a little afraid, but when they are outside, these two people will not let themselves escape their control. Needless to say, they almost sandwiched him in the middle to "protect" him to avoid Meng Guo's "careful assassination".
Even when meeting Li Yu, the furthest distance between them was outside the private room door of the wine shop, and through the cracks in the door and the window, Li Yan also found that one of them was outside the door and the other was downstairs of the wine shop. Opposite the private room, if he secretly jumped out of the window, he would be discovered immediately. The same was true when they were in Li Shan's "Iron Pavilion". They stood dozens of steps away from where he and Li Shan were talking, and their every move was within their sight.
The second is that Ji Junshi has taken precautions against himself. He deliberately bought a set of clothes today. When he came back, he found that his consciousness would detect new items that suddenly appeared, so that he would be aware of everything. Under control.
Li Yan frowned when he thought of this. He was under house arrest. How could he escape from this deadly valley?
