Feng Ci has thousands of years of knowledge, but he has never seen such a terrifying scene.

He secretly scolded Pei Qianyue for not being a human being, sitting on the head of the bed in black clothes at night and not making a sound. If he was a little more vulnerable, he might have scared him to death on the spot.

But he didn't show the slightest bit on his face, and asked calmly, "Why is Lord City Lord here?"

"I also want to know, why are you here?"

The tone is cold, indifferent and alienated, a familiar yin and yang strangeness.

Pei Qianyue was completely awake.

Feng Ci stayed with Ruanmeng, cute and unconscious little snake for several days, and he was not used to his cold appearance for a while.

But he will ask the question...

It proves that most of his memories of the past few days are gone.

Feng Ci thought for a while, and said, "The city lord is not awake, and Senior Brother Xiao sent his disciples to take care of the city lord."

Pei Qianyue didn't speak again, as if he was thinking about the truth of Fengci's words.

The room was very dark, and Pei Qianyue's expression was completely hidden in the darkness, so he couldn't see it clearly. But Feng Ci could feel an invisible gaze that was always watching him, tracing his outline inch by inch, as if scrutinizing.

"This seat has previously ordered that no one except Xiao Que should step into Linxiantai without authorization." After a long time, Pei Qianyue said softly, "Why did he let you in?"

"But, it may be..." Feng Ci laughed dryly, "It may be that the disciple is especially good at tidying up the house."

With the cold breath blowing towards his face, Pei Qianyue suddenly leaned over and slammed Feng Ci back into the soft bed.

That handsome face was instantly close at hand.

He was angry, and not so much.

Feng Ci stared at the other party's tightly pursed lips, but he didn't want to get angry with the person who was finally cured, so he resolutely admitted: "This disciple is wrong."

"Wrong?" Pei Qianyue's voice sounded in his ears, without the slightest emotion, "What's wrong with you?"

Feng Ci: "The disciple should not enter Linxiantai without permission, should not read the city lord's scriptures, should not steal the city lord's bath, and should not sleep on the city lord's bed!"

Pei Qianyue: "..."

The atmosphere in the hall was so dignified that even the air was stagnant.

Feng Ci tried hard to search in his mind, besides playing with snakes, what else has he done to make this person angry. Before he could think of it, Pei Qianyue spoke first.

"You seem to have forgotten what I said to you when we first met." Pei Qianyue's voice was cold and forbearing, as if he was trying his best to restrain something, which made his voice sound a little hoarse.

"Then I will say it again."

"...Don't lie to me."

He spoke very slowly, one word at a time, and his voice echoed in the empty hall.

really weird.

Feng Ci thought in his heart that he broke into Linxiantai without permission, slept in his bed, and maybe even knew his secret, but Pei Qianyue didn't care.

What made Pei Qianyue angry was whether Feng Ci lied in front of him.

Feng Ci said: "The disciple dare not deceive the city lord."

Another long stalemate.

After a while, Pei Qianyue suddenly smiled softly.

The laughter was very low, and it was a little itchy when it fell into Feng Ci's ears. Then, he let go of his hand, and the oppressive feeling that followed him disappeared.

Pei Qianyue said, "This seat will ask Xiao Que for the specific reasons. If it is confirmed that you have told a lie, this seat will definitely deal with you personally."

After speaking, he ignored the rumors and got up and walked out.

Wind Ci: "?"

Does that let him go?

He didn't throw him out of bed, his temper improved, Xiao Hei.

Feng Ci suddenly found that he had gradually become accustomed to this person's uncertainty.

He sighed, rolled over and got out of bed, picked up the coat that had been thrown aside, put it on, and walked out while tying his belt.

Pei Qianyue had already sat down in front of the table outside.

On the table was half a book that had not yet been bound, the one Fengci was sorting out during the day. At that time, he accidentally stimulated Pei Qianyue to wake up and was busy trying to appease him, so he forgot about it.

Pei Qianyue raised his hand and stroked the book gently, Feng Ci was heartbroken, for fear that this person would fall ill in the next second and throw all the book out, he hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed the book back from his hand: "City Lord Do you want to read a book? What to read, this disciple will help you find it."

Pei Qianyue paused with his fingers in mid-air, then took it back: "You made all this?"

"Yes." Feng Ci raised a smile on his face and explained patiently, "Senior Brother Xiao asked the disciples to come to Sendai to serve the city master. These are what the disciples should do."

"Serve..." Pei Qianyue repeated gently between his lips and teeth, "Very good."

Then, he sat up straight and said lightly, "Then read it."

Wind Ci: "Huh?"

"Aren't you here to serve this seat?" Pei Qianyue said, "Just this book, read it."

Feng Ci slept until the middle of the night, and it was already dark outside, and even the disciples who were guarding outside Linxiantai had already taken a shift.

But it was such a quiet night, the first of the dignified Immortal League, the lofty city lord of Langfeng in the realm of self-cultivation, but after sleeping for several days, the first thing he woke up was to ask his disciples to read to him.

outrageous.

Feng Ci took a deep breath and recited it several times in his heart.

This is the little snake cub who has been waiting for him for three thousand years. It is his own cub. Even if he grows crooked now, he has a responsibility. Don't be angry, just coax him.

Then turn the page and read slowly.

There was silence above the main hall, only the gentle sound of reading echoed in the void, and it rang like this all night.

The sky was lit up, and Feng Ci was so dry that he finally put down a book after reading it. Before he had time to take a sip, another book was thrown in front of him: "Continue."

It's not over yet!

Feng Ci was so angry that he almost crushed the cup in his hand.

All night, he read four or five books all night, but Pei Qianyue listened carefully. Occasionally, he would point out and reread the wrong words or miss a sentence.

Why do you want him to read to him when you are so familiar with these books? ? !

This bastard might as well go back and continue to lie down!

Feng Ci buried his head in the book, his hands were itchy with anger, and he didn't even notice a faint, shallow smile on the corner of Pei Qianyue's lips.

The smile almost melted the ice all over him.

He wanted to say something else when a voice suddenly sounded outside the door.

"City Lord, Elder Commandment invites you to meet at the Council Hall."

Pei Qianyue's expression froze, and he returned to his icy look.

Even Feng Ci noticed the change in the temperament of the person beside him, raised his eyes to look at him, and heard Pei Qianyue say: "No one will be seen during this retreat, get out."

Wind Ci: "..."

I've listened to him reading a book all night here, and I'm still in retreat.

But the man outside the door said again: "It's Senior Brother Xie Wuhan who is back, he... he seems to be seriously injured."

This time, even Feng Ci's face changed.

Langfeng City Council Hall is behind the main hall, but it is rarely used on weekdays.

It's just because the Lord of Langfeng City is a loner with a "nature". Therefore, there is no place to use the council hall.

But today, it was full of people.

"The city owner is here!"

A disciple outside the door shouted loudly, and the crowd gathered in the main hall separated from both sides and saluted: "I have seen the city master!"

But the one who walked in first was a young man in the outer sect disciple uniform.

Feng Ci had not seen this battle for a while, and after a pause, Pei Qianyue walked in behind him.

"Get up." Pei Qianyue said.

Everyone got up, but their eyes fell on Feng Ci unconsciously.

Feng Ci understands why they feel strange.

Only the first elder or the core disciples of the minority sects can set foot in the discussion hall. He is an outer disciple and should not appear here. Not only are they strange, Feng Ci also finds it strange.

Well done, why did Pei Qianyue bring him here too?

But City Lord Pei always follows his "nature", and Feng Ci is too lazy to ask too much. Anyway, he also wanted to know what happened to Xie Wuhan.

Xie Wuhan is also in the council hall now.

He was sitting on the chair beside him, his bare arms and neck were bandaged, and he looked seriously injured. When Pei Qianyue came in, he wanted to stand up and salute, but he couldn't get up, and his face paled and fell back.

Pei Qianyue asked in a deep voice, "What's going on?"

Xie Wuhan coughed twice, his anger like a gossamer: "It's Wuya Valley."

Xie Wuhan was ordered to investigate the disaster of Xianmen. Yesterday, he received Feiyuan from Wuyagu for help, saying that they had been raided and suffered heavy casualties. Xie Wuhan immediately led his disciples to the rescue, and actually saw the real murderer behind the scenes in Wuya Valley.

Pei Qianyue: "So, the murderer hurt you like this?"

"Yes." Xie Wuhan said, "The terrain of Wuya Valley is steep, and it is even more 'mysterious' fog, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. When they were attacked, they opened the great formation to seal the mountain, so the murderer did not succeed. But at the same time... ...cough, they are also trapped in the big formation, and they are very critical."

Feng Ci narrowed his eyes, thoughtful.

"It's crazy!"

The speaker was an old man with white hair and beard. He wore a crown of snow-white silver threads and looked majestic and solemn: "The murderer has repeatedly slaughtered fellow disciples of Xianmen, and now he dares to hurt my disciples in Langfeng City. Report, how will I, Langfeng City, gain a foothold in this world of comprehension in the future?"

Pei Qianyue ignored it.

He just stood quietly in place with his head lowered slightly, as if he was thinking about something.

"In the past five months, you are the first person to fight against the real murderer and escape from him." After a long time, Pei Qianyue said slowly, "Can you see what he looks like?"

Xie Wuhan shook his head: "Last night, the sky was too dark, and the other party covered his face with a mask and a hood. The disciple didn't see it clearly. Only... the other party seemed to be a man."

There is no difference between saying this and not saying it.

Feng Ci wanted to ask more, but saw Pei Qianyue nodded: "Okay."

"Immediately select a group of disciples and go with this seat to Wuya Valley. This time, the real murderer must be arrested." Pei Qianyue turned back and faced the old man just now, "Elder Commandment, in this way, Langfengcheng's face can be improved. Recover?"

The precept elders leaned over and gave him a salute: "The city owner is wise!"

Others in the hall also leaned over: "The city owner is wise!"

Above the entire hall, only Feng Ci did not kneel and salute. He tilted his head to look at Pei Qianyue's profile, and frowned slightly.

Pei Qianyue has just woken up, and the sea of ​​​​knowledge has not fully recovered. He is actually not suitable for going down the mountain, let alone to track down the real murderer behind the scenes.

and……

For some reason, Feng Ci always had an ominous foreboding.

Pei Qianyue suddenly said, "You go too."

Feng Ci was stunned for a while, and then realized that Pei Qianyue was talking to him: "Me?"

"City lord, this is not right." The precept elders in charge of the inner sect rules immediately objected, "Outer sect disciples are usually not allowed to go down the mountain to experience and perform tasks. This"

"Not right?" Pei Qianyue interrupted in a low voice.

His tone was light, and he couldn't hear the anger or anger, but he made the elders of the precepts tremble, and quickly lowered his head: "This rule was set by the former city lord who passed away, and my juniors will not dare to disobey."

There was a dead silence in the hall, and the wind words at the center of the topic didn't care much.

Pei Qianyue's physical condition is unknown, and Feng Ci is not at ease. Naturally, he wants to go to Wuya Valley together. It would be best if they were willing to let him follow, if not...he had other options.

After a while, Pei Qianyue said, "You're right, it's really not right."

Then, he turned around, faced Feng Ci, and said calmly: "From today, you are the direct disciple of this seat. Good disciple, follow the teacher to Wuya Valley."

Wind Ci: "...???"
