"When do you two plan to leave? Do you want to leave overnight? When Xie Chi heard the footsteps, he didn't even raise his head to confirm who was coming, and said:"I have asked the disciples in the village in the past two days. Mr. Li has never been to Wuzhou. If you two are in urgent need, go there as soon as possible." Let’s go to Taiyuan Prefecture."

"Didn’t Master Xie go to work? Why are you still here?"Xu Qingjiu asked instead without answering.

"There’s nothing to be busy with, it’s just that the room is too stuffy, come out and get some fresh air." As he said that, Xie Chi unfolded the fan to fan himself,"Besides, how can anyone who has a birthday be busy by themselves?"

"So what Master Xie just said is to urge us to leave?"

"The two of you were originally here to do something, but now that you have a clue, why are you not in a hurry?"

"There are already clues, so why worry?"

"It seems that the two of you are going to stay at the manor to have a banquet. We just have some wine, so it’s better not to drink it."

"Owner Xie advised us not to drink, so why did he take the initiative to find someone to drink with us?"

"The key point is that people don’t drink. Some people can drink wine, some people can’t, and some people have finished drinking. If you don’t toast them a few more glasses, they will have to pay back twice as much in the end. Xie said this, if you two want to leave, you can take advantage of the dark night"

"Now that we already know the news about Jihua, my senior brother and I can wait until tomorrow to congratulate and thank the owner of the village before leaving. Thank you very much to the owner today for informing us about Jihua’s news."

"You're welcome, it's just a piece of cake. Since you're not in a hurry, you two might as well visit Wuzhou City more. After spending a day here and there today, how do you feel? Have you seen many interesting things?"

"I did see a lot of interesting things...and people. Wuzhou City is so lively. I think tomorrow’s banquet to thank the owner of the village will be even more lively."

"Yeah? As long as it's lively, you two can just have fun, but I'm afraid Xie may not be a good entertainer, so please bear with me."

Xu Mulin and Xu Qingjiu's original intention was to set off as early as possible, so as not to cause any trouble when they arrived, but when they thought about the missing waist card and Qiu Ji, the two of them could only calm down and wait and see what would happen tomorrow.

Originally He thought he was just looking for someone. He might encounter some obstacles along the way, but Xu Mulin expected that they would all be within the limit of what he could handle. However, after meeting Xie Chi or arriving in Zizhou, everything seemed to be in the right direction. As it develops in an increasingly deeper and more complex direction, Xu Mulin feels that he is increasingly unable to control it. He is especially worried that if he encounters any danger again, he is afraid that it will be difficult to guarantee Xu Qingjiu's safety. Thinking of this, Xu Mulin can only I feel a headache, and I feel a little uneasy.

"Senior brother, how about we separate into two groups, with one person setting off to the high balcony tonight and the other staying to ensure the development of the situation tomorrow."The two returned to the yard. Seeing that there was no one around, Xu Qingjiu suggested.

"No," Xu Mulin immediately denied,"We can still take care of each other when we are together. If we are separated, we will not be able to cope with danger. It is better not to take the risk.

"It's just that I didn't think carefully." Xu Qingjiu thought it might not work before he suggested it, but there was really no other way at the moment."Now that the two things happened at the same time, it's probably not a coincidence."

"But now these two things, I prefer the Luoqiugu side. Just now Xie Chi took us over to find Qi Kaiyuan. On the surface, Xie Chi was talking about the fact that Qi Kaiyuan entrusted him. It seems that the two of them have a good relationship, but Qi Kaiyuan just made things difficult for Xie Chi inexplicably. Although the clues they gave us are not the same. The clues I got earlier are correct, but I always feel that there is something hidden in it, maybe it is to lead us to the high balcony immediately, so we might as well settle down and wait until tomorrow to see if it will work. If there are other changes, it would be better to understand the situation more clearly. What do you think of Qingjiu?"

"Previously, we felt that the involvement of the young master from Gao Balcony was unclear, but if Qi Kaiyuan's clues are true, it may now prove that he is not on Du Shengyang's side. Ji Hua has also successfully escaped the pursuit, as well as the little boy. As you said, Gaoyangyang has nothing to do with the Yuanyang sect, so Jihua should be safe now. Senior brother is right. It is safe for us not to separate. We will make plans after the banquet tomorrow."

"good. Then you stay at the farm obediently while I go out to buy wine and send it to Qi Kaiyuan."Sending Xu Qingjiu to the door of the room, Xu Mulin thought about the promise he had just made to Qi Kaiyuan. Although it was all polite words, Xu Mulin thought that he might be able to get some other clues from Qi Kaiyuan.

"I'll go with my senior brother"

"No need, you stay in the village. If Qiu Ji and the others come today, leaving someone here may be able to help."

"Well, senior brother, come back soon. By the way, I left the fried fish you brought me in Qi Kaiyuan's room. If senior brother comes along, please bring me another one, okay?"

"How do you know it is...Qingjiu should be a puppy, right? Why is your nose so sharp? Okay~ I'll bring it back to you. Is there anything else you want to eat?"

"Everything is fine, the puppy is not picky about food.

Xu Mulin chuckled and said,"Okay~ I'm leaving then." Please be safe alone. If something happens, protect yourself first."

"Brother, I'm hungry"

"I'll be back as soon as possible."

After Xu Mulin left quickly, he was stopped again as soon as he left the yard.

"Xu Gongzi"

"Master Xie is indeed not busy. Do you have anything to do with me?"

"this. Xie Chi picked up the two jars of wine in his hand and walked up to Xu Mulin,"Aren't you going to give Qi Kaiyuan wine?" I asked my disciples to buy it back.

Xu Mulin took the wine and said,"Thank you very much." After saying that, he turned around to leave, but when he saw Xie Chi looking like he still had something to say, he stopped and asked proactively:"Master Xie, if you have anything else to warn me, you might as well speak up.""

"Mr. Xu is in a hurry?"Xie Chi fiddled with the fan in his hand, walked to the side and leaned against the wall and looked at Xu Mulin,"Since I'm in a hurry, I'll speak out. It can be regarded as a rare good deed in Xie Chi's life."I don't know why, Xie Chi seemed to feel stuffy in the weather that was about to snow. He opened the fan and fanned it. His eyes followed the surface of the fan. He didn't know which inscription was written on the fan. Thank you very much. Chi likes,"Qi Kaiyuan is not as kind as he appears. It's best to stay away from Mr. Xu if we meet him in the future. Mr. Xu doesn't need to ask me what I know. Xie can only tell you that everything is just my end." It's just speculation so far. It's hard for him to hide it for a long time. Mr. Xu can only watch from a distance. It won't be long before he knows."

"Thank you."Xu Mulin looked at Xie Chi and saw that Xie Chi seemed to be attracted by the fan,"Master Xie knows that disguise cannot last long, so when will Master Xie plan to take off his disguise?"

"The mask has been worn for so long that it can no longer be taken off, and Xie doesn’t want to take it off. One day, if someone wants to take it off, they will take my life with them."After Xie Chi finished speaking, he walked away, walked more than 20 steps, and said to Xu Mulin behind him from a distance:"Wuzhou Night Market is good. You can go out for a stroll at night. Is it convenient for me to use my belt?"

"certainly. Thank you."

About a stick of incense ago

"So, what did you find?"After Xie Chi separated from Xu Mulin and Xu Qingjiu, he just entered the study and asked the person waiting there.

"The two men who attacked Master that day were missing in Xiaoxiang Garden today, but they were also there at the same time, as were the two Mr. Xu. Master ordered me to just search for their traces, so the disciple did not dare to act rashly. Later, the two Mr. Xu left first. I chased the other two women through two alleys and lost them. When we were in Xiaoxiang Garden, because the two Master Xu had profound skills, the disciple did not dare to get too close for fear of being noticed. Therefore, what did they say inside?...I didn’t find out, so please forgive me, Master."

"How many times have I told you, don’t call me Master, call me Master"

"...Owner"

"I don’t blame you, I didn’t want you to find out anything. However, has the waist card been confirmed?"

"I only confirmed that the young master didn’t have it on him, and the other one...Almost, but before they went out, I saw that the young master was keeping it. Master, I'm sorry, I didn't do it well"

"...Okay, you go down, I'll go check it out later. Have you bought the wine?"

"Bought, bought two jars"

"Well, I originally wanted to respect him myself. Even though he was returning a favor to them, he got them involved in this matter. Xie Chi picked up the wine and walked out the door, saying to the person behind him:"Tianxiao, after dinner, help me deliver the letter on the table to Guxia Village in Shuzhou overnight. You can get it yourself from the cabinet next to it." Some silver taels for travel expenses"

"Just get it. I just hope you can be patient for a little longer. When tomorrow comes, I will give you a result on this matter."After Xie Chi took a few more steps, he turned around and looked at Xu Mulin who was walking away, muttering to himself,"I'm just not entirely sure whether they believe me or not. I don't know if they can help you then, but I There is only time to do this. I have strengthened my defenses in the past two days so that you can't sneak in and risk getting hurt. I hope you won't get hurt tomorrow and can escape intact after this is over."

After saying that, Xie Chi walked in the other direction while waving the fan.

Xu Mulin carried the wine given by Xie Chi to Qi Kaiyuan's door. He was about to raise his hand to knock on the door when he faintly heard voices inside. Xu Mulin was about to knock on the door. I was hesitating whether to come back later, but the person inside had already opened the door.

"May I ask who you are looking for?"A fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy in white stood at the door and asked Xu Mulin

"I'm Xu Mulin, find the leader"

"It's Mr. Xu. What do you want from me? Qi Kaiyuan asked as he stood up and walked towards the door.

"Master Qi, I brought two jars of wine. Please don’t dislike it, Master Qi."

"It turns out that this is the case, Mr. Xu is really true to his promise. Then I won't be polite to Mr. Xu. Lingxi, take it"

"Yes, Master."The young man in white replied, bending slightly towards Xu Mulin and taking the wine.

"Mr. Xu, is there anything else you can do?"

"there is none left. Excuse me, I will take my leave this junior."

Qi Kaiyuan stood at the door. It wasn't until Xu Mulin walked through the corridor and turned the corner that Qi Kaiyuan's chilling gaze finally stopped, but his tone was still very cold, and he said to the young man beside him:"Lingxi, Go over there later and check to see if he just overheard something."

"Yes, Master."After hesitating for a while, the young man finally said:"Master, this person has great internal skills. I'm afraid my disciple won't be able to get too close, and I'm afraid I won't be able to detect anything by then."

Qi Kaiyuan closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, then took a deep breath and said:"That's all, if he doesn't hear anything, it's not good if I leak the trace first. I will be myself tomorrow...Forget it, for now, I’d better prevent Xie Chi from causing trouble for me. Du Shengyang is a waste, and he raised waste. Today, he directly told those two people the news I falsely revealed to him. I don’t know what he is doing. What's the purpose? You just talked to me like that. It's really ungrateful."Qi Kaiyuan was angry in his heart, but he was helpless at the moment,"I can't care about it for the moment. I just hope those two people don't get into trouble. How about Lingjun? Have you found those two women?"
