One or two branches of plum outside the bamboo

Chapter 379

Yan Qingzhi finished taking a shower, changed into new clothes, wrung out her hair, and brushed a man's bun before walking out from behind.

As soon as he went out, he saw that Mei Heng was still reading a book there. Tables and chairs were already placed in the veranda not far away. Yan Qingzhi looked around and walked straight to Mei Heng's side.

"Let's go eat! I haven't eaten properly for days!"

Mei Heng looked at her with a smile, nodded and put down the book in her hand, and was about to sit up straight when Yan Qingzhi bent down and picked him up.

Mei Heng: ...

Yan Qingzhi hugged him a few steps and walked to the table, put Mei Heng on a chair, and after she put it down, she helped him tidy up the hem of his coat, and then sat down not far away. Invite Mei Heng.

Although Mei Heng is a fifth-rank official, Yan Qingzhi is not a servant of his family. He didn't feel that there was anything wrong with him and him sitting at the same table for dinner. Of course, Mei Heng didn't think it was abnormal. Pick up the bowl and start eating.

Mei Heng didn't eat much, so he ate slowly. Although Yan Qingzhi ate fast, he was, after all, a child taught by Su He for many years. There was nothing wrong with the rules and etiquette. After Yan Qingzhi finished eating, Mei Heng just put down his chopsticks, and the dishes on one table were almost empty.

Yan Qingzhi waited for Mei Heng to rinse his mouth and wipe his mouth, and then carried him back under the flower window before, while she called someone to clean up.

After having enough to eat and drink and nothing to do, Yan Qingzhi also moved a chair over and sat next to Mei Heng not far from the eaves to bask in the sun.

Mei Heng was very calm. He was almost finished reading a book. Yan Qingzhi sat there very bored, glanced at the book he was reading, and scratched the hair behind his ears.

He is used to being active on weekdays, but Yan Qingzhi is still not used to it after such a free time, but if he wants to read a book with Mei Heng, Yan Qingzhi can't help shivering, let's forget it!
Without Feng Shanchang and Yan Qingzhu by his side, Yan Qingzhi would not even read a book, except for drawings.

But it's really boring to sit. Yan Qingzhi's buttocks are like nails, swaying back and forth on the stool, no matter how they sit, they feel uncomfortable.

It wasn't until the book in Mei Heng's hand turned to the last page that Yan Qingzhi turned around and spoke to him.

"Why do you think so many people from the rivers and lakes suddenly came to Linan City? Did they know about me and came to hunt me down?"

Mei Heng had already discovered Yan Qingzhi's uncomfortable appearance, but Yan Qingzhi didn't say it, and he didn't care. In terms of calmness, most people couldn't compare to him.

"Thinking too much! It's true that the people from the Feng family want to kill you, but the people who opened the door are just for the keys to the underground palace. Everyone can't wait to rot in the pot of these private news. Who will spread it out!"

Yan Qingzhi nodded when she heard what Mei Heng said, but she immediately reacted.

"I didn't tell you about the key to the underground palace?! How did you know?"

For Yan Qingzhi's keenness, Mei Heng did not feel guilty at all.

"You can run out with my Tianjingsi's horse. I know about you, isn't it normal?"

While speaking, he quickly flipped through the book again, and finally put it slowly on the coffee table beside him.

"You're right, so you're here to save me?"

Mei Heng took the teapot from the coffee table, poured water for himself, and looked at Yan Qingzhi suspiciously.

"If you ask me that, I'm not going to say yes!"

His eyes were full of sincerity, but the words he said were a bit heart-wrenching. In theory, there is really no need to push such human feelings out.

Yan Qingzhi felt that the other party seemed to be mocking her own IQ, but she thought about it again, it was just a small talk, and there were so many intrigues. Seeing Mei Heng take a sip of tea, she stretched out and pushed Mei Heng's arm.

"Pour me a glass too!"

In that tone of voice, without the self-consciousness of being ridiculed at all, Mei Heng deliberately looked at her with a straight face.

"I'm a fifth-rank official anyway. If you don't flatter me, it's fine, but you still instruct me to work!" Having said that, he still turned around and picked up another unused teacup from the tea tray, and rinsed it with tea. After a while, he poured Yan Qingzhi a cup.

In this midsummer season, the tea is slow to get cold. The tea that has been put here for more than an hour is still warm. Yan Qingzhi also took a sip, and felt bored. After drying it, he handed it to Mei Heng again. .

Mei Heng: ...

"You said that if these people outside are not here to hunt me down, what are they here for? Has there been anything more sensational recently?"

Yan Qingzhi continued to be curious. After all, Mei Heng, as the second-in-command of the Tianjing Division, would not be surprised if there was any news.

"It's not a sensation. It's just that the daughter of a small school here is recruiting relatives by martial arts. Seeing that there are so many people, in fact, no one with a name or a surname in the rivers and lakes has come. If you want to make a name, this is not a good choice."

"I'm just curious, but how did you know I wanted to be famous?"

Yan Qingzhi didn't deny that he wanted to be famous, and it's not shameful to chase after fame and fortune, so there's no need to deny it if the other party finds out!

Mei Heng did not lie back on the rocking chair, but turned to lie on the armrest on Yan Qingzhi's side, and said mysteriously.

"Actually, I really know something about you. Do you want to hear it?"

Yan Qingzhi sensed something keenly, but she thought about it and came up with nothing. In the end, she just looked into Mei Heng's eyes, but she didn't realize what trap the other party had buried for her, so she asked vigilantly. .

"You know what's wrong with me?"

Mei Heng raised his hand, leaned on his face, and said with a smile.

"Then let me talk about Poyun Gun first!"

As soon as he opened his mouth, he poked at the point that Yan Qingzhi was most interested in. Yan Qingzhi's boring feeling disappeared instantly. Unclear look.

Mei Heng didn't sell anything. When Yan Qingzhi was honest, he talked about a past event that Yan Qingzhi was most interested in.

"As Senior Su's niece and a descendant of Poyun Gun, you should know that you once had a senior brother named Chang Xiao."

Yan Qingzhi knew this person too well. He was the last disciple of Su He, and he had placed all of Su He's trust and expectations. In the end, his death was a great blow to Su He, and even Su He had once lost all hope. Because of his desire to live and die, Yan Qingzhi heard stories about Chang Xiao from many people.

In fact, he is also a member of the Tianjing Division, but he is not an emissary, but an emissary of a higher level.

"It's my third senior brother."

"Chang Xiao is a magnanimous person with a deep understanding of righteousness. He was born a good seedling of martial arts. It's a pity that he didn't get a good teacher when he was young.

"I heard that the two hit it off at first sight, and they wanted to be friends with each other, but Senior Su passed on the Poyun Gunjue to him, so he disregarded his fate and apprenticed on the spot."

"Senior Su once refused, but there is hope in my heart. The two have been together for many years, until Chang Xiao died at the hands of the corpse master."

Although Yan Qingzhi had never heard of these things, he had some guesses in his heart. If it weren't for the matter of Chang Xiao, Uncle Su would not have been so resolute about accepting disciples.

In fact, Yan Qingzhi had also asked, if Yan Qingzhi had not had an idea to recognize an uncle, Uncle Su was preparing to accept apprentices on behalf of his apprentices and bring them to Senior Brother Chang Xiao, but he still had expectations in his heart. Can really cool down.

No one really wants to be lonely all his life, even if he leaves without any entanglement, the same is true of Uncle Su.

"I know about this. Later, my uncle went to the ancient Nanhuang family to make trouble for the third senior brother."

Mei shook his head.

"This actually has nothing to do with Poyun Spear. What is really related is that it happened after a few people from the Gu family were forced to death, and all the people who were on the bright side of the Corpse Control Sect were beheaded."

Yan Qingzhi frowned, always feeling that Mei Heng was cheating on her, but following Mei Heng, he talked about the key points, and the doubts that had just arisen in her heart dissipated immediately.

"When Senior Su came out of the Gu family, he originally planned to bury Chang Xiao's body in the ancient family's ancestral tomb."

Yan Qingzhi was stunned, this was the first time someone had told her about Chang Xiao's body.

"Can the Gu family agree?"

"You've seen the style and style of the people of the Gu family, of course you don't agree, but at that time, Senior Su had the world's best martial arts, and he was wielding a spirit Gu. He beat up the famous people in the Gu family village one by one, and said that he would take his own tomb. The position was given to Chang Xiao, and the great elder of the ancient family at that time intervened, and the matter finally came to a conclusion."

Yan Qingzhi took a deep breath, thinking about how strong Uncle Su was more than 20 years ago with so many people in the Gu family! ?
"What happened after that? What happened to Poyun Gun?"

"Afterwards, it naturally changed, and I don't know if the people from the Gu family invited the people from the Feng family, or if the people from the Feng family heard the news and came to the door by themselves. The night before Chang Xiao was buried, they said that Chang Xiao was this person. It was because Senior Su ordered Geke to die, and after his death, he also wanted to protect Senior Su from disaster, and he had to suffer [-] tortures before he could be reincarnated."

"If you want to protect him, there is only one way, and that is to find a high-quality golden nanmu coffin. There must be enough rituals for seven, seven, and 49 days. At the same time, the location of the burial must be a geomantic treasure that matches Chang Xiao's fate. It needs to be nurtured by family ancestors who have been passed down for more than a thousand years, and more than thousands of younger generations are required to enshrine it every year, and most importantly, this location must be overseas."

Yan Qingzhi raised her brows, feeling a little speechless and a little funny, did this Feng family have trouble getting along with Uncle Su?
"Aren't these people getting paid?"

How could this be such a coincidence, how could it have to be overseas!
Mei Heng shrugged, and he obviously didn't trust the Feng family to be innocent.

"Some things are like this. If you haven't heard of it, you haven't heard of it there, but if you've heard it and can't prove it, you can only believe what it is, not what it doesn't."

Yan Qingzhi understood instantly, Su He had always felt that Chang Xiao's death was closely related to him for the rest of his life, and suddenly heard that this person would not be at peace after his death, the guilt was only at its peak, let alone let him go When Chang Xiao was buried overseas, he said that he might work hard to let him go to heaven.

"So Uncle Su exchanged it with Poyun Gun?"

After thinking for a while, Yan Qingzhi guessed where the only place here that could be related to Poyun Gun was.

"Forget it! There is an island in the south of Yunhai Continent. They make a living by casting swords. Their family is very famous and has a good reputation. Coercion, anyway, in the end Chang Xiao was buried there, and Poyun Gun was also left there. At the same time, it was agreed that Senior Su would not be able to retrieve Poyun Gun for eternity, and only juniors who had inherited Poyun Gun Jutsu could have the qualification to retrieve Poyun Gun. "

Yan Qingzhi was amazed, she never thought there would be such an outrageous agreement.

"Then if Uncle Su never met a suitable junior in his life, wouldn't Poyun Spear belong to them!"

"That's right!"

Hearing Mei Heng's affirmation, Yan Qingzhi's face was instantly ugly, and she immediately patted the chair, wanting to say that the other party was shameless!
But when she thought that Senior Brother Chang Xiao was still buried in other people's ancestral graves, it was a bit false to say that, but Senior Brother Chang Xiao was too far away from her, and she still felt irritated by the predicament she was facing now.

"This condition is not fair at all!"

Seeing her angry appearance, Mei Heng guessed what she was thinking.

"It's not right to say that. In fact, apart from the matter of burying Chang Xiao, Senior Su may not have entrusted the Poyun Gun to them."

Su He had already wanted to die at that time, and had no hope of accepting apprentices. If he wanted to find a home for Poyungun, such a family that made swords for a living, had an excellent reputation, and passed it on for thousands of years, it might really be the best choice.

At least he doesn't have to worry that those people will destroy the Poyun Gun. That long gun will be taken care of in a thriving family until it finds its final destination and sees the light of day again.

Yan Qingzhi was depressed at once. This long spear was integrated into the stories of too many people and pinned on too many people's emotions. She suddenly felt that although she had achieved a little in martial arts, she still had a long way to go.

She sighed deeply, this time Mei Heng didn't guess what was on her mind, she just thought she was worried about how to find Poyun Gun.

"You don't have to worry. The Zhu family is the most trustworthy. As long as the news of the birth of Poyun Gun's successor reaches Zhujian Villa, they will soon take action."

Yan Qingzhi turned to look at Mei Heng, feeling that the other party was trying to comfort her, and a little happiness rose in her heart.

"Actually, it's okay! I just don't know what conditions they will put on me, and I don't know if I can meet them."

"Speaking of this, I have some guesses!"

Yan Qingzhi didn't expect that Mei Heng had even thought about this, so he stretched his neck forward again excitedly.

"What guess?"

The distance between the two was only two feet at the moment, and the emotions in each other's eyes were clearly visible. Yan Qingzhi could naturally see the narrowness of Mei Heng's bad taste.

"This... You can't say it casually! Our Tianjing Division has rules. Outsiders will be charged for inquiries!"

He finally straightened up and lay down on the reclining chair as lazily as usual, and Yan Qingzhi finally remembered what he felt when Mei Heng just spoke!
Damn it!This kid has so much foreshadowing, just waiting for the end at this time!
