Zhao Zhongzhi stood up holding the tree and said in a trembling voice: "I am responsible for all this.

"The sun was shining unknowingly from the sky, and the fragrance was overflowing in the courtyard. The former good friends stood under the unknown big tree with complicated expressions.

After a long time, Xiao Wuyi took a deep breath: "I don't blame you.

" "I know.

I know that you were hesitant at first, Zheng, and showed mercy to me and let me escape.

"Zhao Zhongzhi smiled calmly, "It seems that now you have figured it out, and you must finally eliminate the roots without leaving any future troubles.

Yeah? " Xiao Wuyi was silent for a few breaths, gritted his teeth and uttered one word: "Yes.

" Zhao Chongzhi slowly shook his head: "It's not that I am greedy for life and afraid of death.

My father had bad intentions, and the entire Zhao family suffered retribution. I just don’t want the Zhao family to die.

It's a pity that this wish cannot be realized now..." "Forget it, since you have decided, Azheng, let's do it.

The feud between our two families was settled.

" He looked directly at Xiao Wuyi calmly and smiled with relief, as if he was not the one who was about to be killed.

Xiao Wuyi raised a scimitar to his eyes, stretched out his hand to touch the handle, and slowly pulled it out. He only pulled it out by an inch, and then sheathed it with a clang. The bright sword light that flashed by reflected his deep and complex emotions. Eye.

"never mind.

Letting you go this time is just a way of repaying the kindness I showed you when I was young.

You take care of yourself.

"Spitting out a sentence with a cold face, he glanced at Zhao Zhongzhi.

"Next time we meet, I will kill you.

"Xiao Wuyi turned around and was about to leave.

"Bang!" Just as he took a step, his body suddenly went limp and he was about to fall to the ground. He subconsciously hit the ground with a knife, and Xiao Wuyi knelt on one knee.

"Puff"! An extremely sharp flying knife shot from his back, directly canceling out his last bit of resistance.

"You! Zhao Zhongzhi..." Everything in front of him was changing rapidly. The ground near the stone table suddenly flipped, and the strange formation waves and the sound of mechanism changes swayed back and forth in front of his eyes and ears.

Xiao Wuyi's nose smelled the faint fragrance of flowers and tea again, and then, he suddenly fell down with the collapsed ground and fell into darkness.

The moment he fell, he vaguely saw heads emerging one after another from the walls around the courtyard.

Those seemingly ordinary villagers had long since changed their appearance and were surrounding the courtyard with great vigilance. It seemed that they would rush in at any time and attack him together.

"Azheng, don't blame me.

"Xiao Wuyi's body fell rapidly, and Zhao Zhongzhi's voice came faintly from above, "I only blame you for being too naive.

”…Three days later.

On the surface, Wanjia Village is just an ordinary village. After taking off its disguise, it turns out to be a special stronghold.

Beneath Zhao Chongzhi's small courtyard, deep underground, there was a secret underground palace.

In the underground palace, in a certain dungeon.

Xiao Wuyi, whose hands and feet were tightly locked by black iron shackles, leaned against the wall with an indifferent expression, staring at the empty ground.

It wasn't until he heard footsteps that he raised his head, his voice hoarse: "...Zhao Chongzhi?" "It's me.

The visitor walked up to him and said with a smile, "How is Ah Zheng doing?" " "I am fine.

Xiao Wuyi said coldly, "I finally eliminated some unnecessary delusions. I'm fine."

"I have thought carefully about it these past few days. From the moment I stepped into the yard, I fell into your trap."

" He spoke in a very calm tone, and I don't know if he has given up the struggle, "Those trees, firewood stacks, and even the direction of the door opening, every decoration was carefully designed by you, right? They are part of a certain formation.

" Zhao Chongzhi nodded: "Yes.

"There is also the fragrance of flowers, tea, and maybe other things. In short, each of them alone is fine, but when combined, it is a mixed poison."

The reason why you said so much to me is just to delay the time for the poison to take effect.

" Zhao Chongzhi smiled: "That's right.

"The few subordinates who followed me secretly were also dealt with by the 'villagers', right?" "Zhao Chongzhi smiled and nodded: "Azheng is right.

"Xiao Wuyi also looked at him and laughed. He laughed so hard that the chain rattled: "Hahaha, I underestimated you! Even though you knew that I might not be able to find you, you were able to guard a trap for four years, just waiting for me to come to you one day? This is the first time I know you have such perseverance, and it seems you hate me too! "That's not right."

"This time, Zhao Zhongzhi shook his head and said with a smile, "Azheng guessed wrong. I don't hate you.

"Besides, I brought you here specially this time."

The clues you found were all given by me.

"Chapter 57 Returning (11)"...? "Xiao Wuyi's eyes moved, and the indifference on his face finally faded, revealing some confusion.

Since Zhao Chongzhi didn't hate him, why did he take so much trouble to lure him here? Nowadays, he is no longer the rookie who knew nothing back then. From his observations in the past few days, he knows that Zhao Zhongzhi has a considerable force in his hands.

It was so deep that even he didn't notice it.

Although this is far from being comparable to the Beidou Demon Palace, if it continues to lie dormant and expand secretly, it may develop into a behemoth in the future.

Why should Xiao Wuyi confront Beidou Demon Palace alone and be exposed in advance? This doesn't seem like something a wise man would do.

Unless Zhao Chongzhi determines that the value of Xiao Wuyi is worth the high price he pays.

"Ah Zheng, after all these years, you are still as naive as ever.

"As if seeing Xiao Wuyi's doubts, Zhao Zhongzhi sighed softly.

His eyes slowly traced the familiar face in front of him, and he smiled and said: "You have always thought that you know me very well, but in fact you do not.

You think I don't understand you, but that's not true either.

"The reason why I took the trouble to set up a trap to lure you here is of course the same as my father, for the secret that he has been pursuing all his life to break through the heavenly beings - that is a heavenly being!" Who would not want to take the place of a transcendent saint with a lifespan of eight hundred years and a land god? "When he learned the truth, he deeply understood what Zhao Qian was thinking.

Everything the other party pursues, a long life, great strength, a high status... all these are just the desires that exist in everyone's heart.

It's just that those mediocre people have never encountered such an opportunity and can only live a mediocre life.

But Zhao Qian encountered it and caught it at all costs! "...It's a pity that his luck was not good enough and he was too stupid. In the end, he let the opportunity slip away in vain - until now, I caught it again!" The dungeon was dim, and the chaotic and inexplicable light fell on Zhao Zhongzhi. On his face, his originally gentle face had an almost twisted paranoia.

Xiao Wuyi looked at the unfamiliar face in front of him and suddenly asked: "When did it start?" He asked this question without any clue, but Zhao Zhongzhi understood what he meant. He was asking when he started scheming against him: "From the day you were about to escape from the Zhao family and say goodbye to me, I realized that you had a secret.

"So, you were the one who put the medicine in the tea?" " Zhao Chongzhi did not deny it.

When he was young, all his kindness to Xiao Zheng came from the bottom of his heart.

If there were no accidents, he would be willing to maintain this friendship.

But Xiao Zheng never trusted him, he just took him as a scapegoat.

What's more, he later learned from Zhao Gan that Xiao Zheng was related to the secret of heaven and man. Compared with it, what was a fragile friendship? Although he only had a heartfelt dislike for Zhao Chongzhi, Xiao Wuyi still did not want his past feelings to be trampled on or misunderstood.

He frowned and said: "Back then, I really regarded you as a friend.
