    The old master said hurriedly: "Don't be rude! You... oops! How dare you be presumptuous in front of saints!"

    Then there was chaos, all the school children screamed in fright, the footsteps were getting closer and closer, Li Yan stood up suddenly, her whole body was tense, her palms were sweating, her heart was beating wildly for a moment, and she tried to close her eyes and concentrate, Heart said: "Fight, I might as well start first!"

    She was about to raise the knife and stepped forward when she took a step under her feet. Suddenly, a figure fell in front of her like lightning. Li Yan was so startled that she almost screamed, and someone raised her hand to cover her. mouth, and made a silent gesture at her.

    Li Yan's eyes widened, she saw who was coming, and she almost burst into tears, but it was Zhou Fei who arrived!

    Zhou Fei let go of her, nodded at Liu Youliang calmly, and leaned against the wall next to her with the shattered cover.

    She stood very relaxed, as if she didn't pay any attention to the near footsteps and the chaos ahead.

    This caused Li Yan to relax for no apparent reason, as if there was a Zhou Fei here, and she didn't care whether the sky was falling or the ground was sinking outside.

    At this moment, the old master suddenly shouted: "Stop! You... these... Nanguo Zijian is more than ten miles away, how dare you be so polite!"

    Zhou Fei leaned against the wall and smiled indistinctly upon hearing this.

    Li Yan thought she was laughing at this old master being pedantic. Although she also found it a bit amusing to call Beidou "savvy", she couldn't help but feel a little worried, and said to herself, "What if the old nerd offends Beidou like this for no reason? What if they kill them?"

    She anxiously reached out to pull Zhou Fei's sleeve, and was about to open her mouth when she saw Zhou Fei shaking her head at her.

    ☆、Chapter 125

    When the old master shouted "Nanguozijian", the arrogant Beidou stopped for a while. After a while, another person spoke up. This time he sounded a lot more polite.

    The old master continued with his scratchy throat, "This old man is Nanguo Zijian who really speaks about Lin Jin. Although he is a humble person, how can he just sit back and be presumptuous? I want to ask which general's path is today. , what a big move, what a big official prestige!"

    Beidou, who had spoken out earlier, said: "But the little one is honest, if you let the imperial court prisoners go, will you be responsible for this?"

    The old master immediately retorted with plausibility: "Since you are catching the criminal, you will go to catch the criminal, and what is the reason for running here to find a schoolboy's bad luck, I think Your Excellency is the one who wants to let the criminal go!"

    Li Yan was stuck in her throat and felt that she could hear screams in the next moment. Unexpectedly, after a moment of awkward silence, Beidou, who spoke up later, drank the indignant companion, who was probably one of Tong Kaiyang's subordinates. The little boss, listening to the voice, must be able to tell that he must bear a heavy load, and said: "It turns out that it is Mr. Lin, who has long admired his name. Since he is Mr., naturally he will not hide anything. If there is any disturbance, let's go!"

    Li Yan didn't expect this reversal, and her eyes widened in shock.

    But after a while, the footsteps gradually faded away, and the menacing Big Dipper actually withdrew.

    Li Yan: "Just...that's it..."

    It was quiet for a while outside, and then, the old master maintained the order of the school children for a while, and then began to lead them to recite the scriptures.

    It was only then that Liu Youliang breathed a sigh of relief, leaning his neck that had been stubborn on one side, and he said angrily: "Cao Zhongkun's name for the throne in his early years is not right, and when he first took power, many lives were on his hands. , But the lives of the people in the rivers and lakes have been touched, and the lives of scholars are more precious. Later, he grew older, after all, he did not have the courage to 'burn books and pit Confucian scholars', and he was afraid of being bad for a thousand years.

    "I can't keep my clothes on," Zhou Fei said, standing aside, "so they created two Guozijian, the north and the south. In order to show that they can listen to both, the teachers and students of the northern and southern Guozijian can regularly submit books to the old capital, these nerds. Sometimes the bite is stronger than the censor station. It is said that the reason why the Zhao family rushed to the south is that the old emperor's reckless actions shook the foundation of the powerful and civil officials in the court. With this experience, Cao's has always been very careful, Beidou's name is the emperor Guards, in fact, are just dogs who do business, and may not dare to be arrogant in Nanguo Zijian... Is that right, Master Liu?"

    Liu Youliang put one hand on the wound on his waist, smiled hard, and said in a low voice, "Yes, although this old Mr. Lin is only a little truthful, he has a great reputation. Sometimes it is even upside down, it is really unbearable to be an official, but luck is very good. In the early years, he opened a private school to accept school children, and it was just to teach some literacy lessons such as thousand-character script. Unexpectedly, he has opened four or five one in a row. Jia Dengke, even today’s wine-sacrifice adults have studied under his door, and many children of scholars feel that if his old man leads the door, they will have great literary talents in the future, and it will almost become a local allusion.”

    Li Yan was stunned.

    Zhou Fei lifted her eyelids and glanced at her: "What's so strange? Do you think your brother would dare to throw yourself here wherever he goes?"

    Li Yan was suddenly speechless.

    In the past few years, she could count the number of times she saw Zhou Fei on one hand, but her impression of Zhou Fei still remained in that long girlhood - Li Yan remembered that Zhou Fei didn't lift her head when she walked, and often looked like no one else was around. She is immersed in her own world, so she neither recognizes the road nor the person. Every time during the festival, she follows Li Sheng with a face of indifference. What's it called... I even called the big boss "Auntie" after Li Sheng inadvertently once.

    When you tell Zhou Fei the secret, you never have to worry about her telling it out, because she doesn't care at all, and she doesn't listen to it when she listens to it. She turned her head and forgot about the girl's mind that she told her the day before.

    Li Yan didn't know Zhou Fei... and her brother, how did they know so many things, and they thought about these many twists and turns calmly.

    Li Yan couldn't hide her words, so she could clearly see what she was thinking on her face, Zhou Fei put the broken cover on her waist, put her hands on her chest, and said with a smile, "What's the matter, I didn't think about anything when I first came down the mountain. , if no one leads the way, you can't find Bei. Granny Li is even more outrageous than me, so I won't mention the bad things he did."

    Li Yan said sullenly, "Then how did you find Bei?"

    Zhou Fei paused for a moment, her eyes fixed on Li Yan's face for a moment, and then she said, "Because the people who brought me across are no longer around."

    Madam Wang, Senior Brother Chenfei, Ma Jili...

    And Xie Yun.

    After Zhou Fei finished speaking, she quickly looked back, changed her voice, and said to Liu Youliang, "I know that Tong Kaiyang might be afraid of Nanguo Zijian, but I didn't expect him to be so easy to pass up, so he left in a few words. , then there must be a reason."

    Li Yan immediately remembered what Liu Youliang almost said before, and hurriedly introduced: "This is my sister, who is the head of our family..."

    "Nandao." Liu Youliang continued without waiting for Li Yan to finish, "I know that you are more famous in Beidou than in the martial arts in the south. After all, not everyone dares to set fire to Tong Kaiyang's mansion... Miss Zhou is indeed meticulous— Tong Kaiyang doesn't dare, because now Nanguo Zijian's sacrifice wine is the prince's uncle, and there is no such thing as being honest... As for why Tong Kaiyang doesn't want to offend the prince at this juncture, cough..."

    He half-closed his eyes, coughed out of breath, and said, "Because Cao Zhongkun is dead."

    Zhou Fei: "..."

    Li Yan: "..."

    Across a wall, the old master recited "Peace for all the world" in his voice, and the word "ping" dragged in a long tone of thirty miles. And in the backyard of the disrepaired saint temple, a middle-aged man with only half his life left lying on the ground, lightly released this earth-shattering news.

    Not to mention Li Yan, even Zhou Fei was stunned.

    "The capital is now secretly not mourning. Only the Queen, the Crown Prince and our few guards who happened to be present know the news. The Crown Prince wants to take this opportunity to pull out King Duan's henchmen in Beijing and take the throne first. It is strictly forbidden to put this The news came out that we were all detained in the palace at the time, and those who dared to leave half a step were punished as a certain crime." Liu Youliang spread his hands, "So Liu 'treached'."

    Li Yan was stunned for a long time, and then said unexpectedly: "Do you want to tell Cao ... that fat man?"

    Zhou Fei whispered, "Li Yan."

    Li Yan stuck out her tongue and didn't dare to say nonsense anymore.

    Zhou Fei walked over, leaning on the broken cover, half-kneeled in front of Liu Youliang, stared at him and said, "If it's just a piece of news, Master Liu can spread the word out without knowing it.

    "Yes, I have managed to pass the news to the Xingjiao Gang as early as in the old capital. At this meeting, Ling Zun must have already received it. It was just that I was a little oblivious at the time and was framed by the villain, otherwise it would not have been so easy to be hit by Tong Kaiyang. Broken." Liu Youliang stretched his hand into his arms with difficulty, touched it for a long time, and took out a small box the size of a palm with faded flowers painted on it, like an old rouge box, "But it doesn't matter, I originally... "

    Liu Youliang moved with difficulty, panting like a rotten bellows, and shoved the rouge box into Zhou Fei's hands: "This place is dangerous, although the girl has the name of Nan Dao Ling, it would be inconvenient to carry me, so don't... Don't worry about me, you take this thing back with Ling Zun, my wish will be, and I will die..."

    Zhou Fei asked, "What is this?"

    "It's the covenant between the sea and the sky." Liu Youliang said.

    Zhou Fei's face changed suddenly.

    Seeing Liu Youliang gasping for a few breaths, he added: "No...cough, the sea and sky you are talking about, the water ripples you are fighting for, I don't know what it is, and I don't know why it wants to be. Follow the name 'Hai Tian Yi Se'."

    "...In those days when the old capital changed, some people left, escorted the young master to the south, sacrificed their lives for justice, and some people stayed, endured the burden, we all know that if we go and stay for a while, maybe we will never see each other again, so we will leave when we leave. Make a covenant named 'Sea and Sky One Color'..."

    Those who sacrifice their lives and those who live hard, those who endure pain and those who endure rǔ, are like autumn waters that grow together.

    "The last person alive will send this covenant and list to the south, so that even if we die silently, there will always be a public opinion in the future. What is the most important secret, I want to get this list from me, so that I can follow the chart and clear it one by one."

    Zhou Fei opened it and glanced at it. Even though she now has the meaning of seeing all directions, many of the names on the list are still very unfamiliar to her, because some people probably have no achievements in their lives and have not been able to climb like General Wu. When they reach a high position, they do something useful, but they are powerless and low-ranking officials, dying of old age quietly amid year after year of doubts and anxiety, and some people are simply involved in other incidents. In the quirky Northern Dynasty, like countless people who were drowned in the fly camp and vying for power, they carried a deeply suppressed loyalty and died in discord.

    Liu Youliang said, "I've been looking for someone I can entrust to, and finally God has mercy on me. Miss Zhou, I rely on you."

    Li Yan looked at Zhou Fei at a loss, and then looked at Liu Youliang - Zhangqiu City has been under martial law, and the surrounding area must have been surrounded by Beidou's spies. With such a seriously injured person, there are people like Tong Kaiyang. The enemy, even Zhou Fei, might be powerless.

    Li Yan wanted to pat her chest and say, "Uncle, don't worry, I will protect you completely", but she couldn't—even if she was willing to risk it herself, she couldn't do it for her eldest brother and sister, so she could only stare at Zhou Fei.

    Zhou Fei didn't say a word, thought for a while, put the old rouge box in her arms, stood up and shouted outside, "Old man Lin, have you finished reading the scriptures?"

    Li Yan: "..."

    I saw a small closed door on the door pushed open from the inside, and an old man with a goatee and five short stature pulled the spider web on the door with one hand, leaned on the wall and walked out, shouting at the drake, pointing at Zhou Fei and saying, "Audacious, disrespectful. First grow, neither big nor small!"

    The noisy schoolchildren in Fangcai Temple had already disappeared. The old master walked over with a walking stick. He was full of white hair and looked quite old. Just walking these two steps made Li Yan look like I was worried, lest he would throw himself to pieces.

    Zhou Fei said impatiently, "I didn't eat your rice, and I didn't read your books. I'm not a senior like me, come and help!"

    Lin Jin poked her with a cane, and his goatee lifted up playfully: "I'm your uncle!"

    Zhou Fei said with a faceless expression, "Who are you, master? I don't have a monk master."

    Lin Jin listened, with a very wretched smile on his face, dressed in the skin of an old school, and performed a show of what it means to be "righteous" and said, "Sooner or later you have to admit it, hehe."

    Li Yan felt that she saw the blue veins on Zhou Fei's forehead, and then she saw the old man who was trembling while walking took a step forward, as if picking up a piece of paper, avoiding Liu Youliang's wound, and easily grabbed his The belt carried the five big and three thick men on his shoulders.

    Li Yan stared at him dumbfounded, and the old master winked at her and smiled: "Hey, this little girl is also very handsome. Have you read the four books? Which one of the Five Classics do you like to read?"

    "She likes the Three Character Classic," Zhou Fei said coldly, "Don't talk nonsense, let's go!"

    Lin Jin glared at her and said, "People's hearts are not ancient, people's hearts are not ancient! Zhou girl, if you can't learn to be sensible, don't even think about entering my house."

    It can be seen that Xie Yun's "cheapness" is by no means natural, and has a history.

    Zhou Fei shattered the cover and said angrily, "Go dreaming!"

    Lin Jin dodged like an old monkey, laughing, carrying a commander Liu who was so shocked that he couldn't find the north, he went up and down and disappeared in a hurry.

    Li Yan pointed to the direction where the old master disappeared: "He... he..."

    "A senior, although he's a bit sleazy, he's still reliable. You can rest assured if you give him a jiāo." Zhou Fei paused, glanced at Li Yan, and said, "I won't wait for Granny Li, you tell him. As soon as I say, I still have something to do, I will go home in a few days on Chongyang. Be careful on the way, see you later."

    Li Yan hurriedly said: "Hey, wait..."

    But Zhou Fei didn't wait for her to speak, the figure flashed and disappeared.

    A day later, in the evening, a small boat was leisurely crossing the waves. Zhou Fei was no longer a landlubber who was turned around by a long oar. She sat leisurely on the side of the boat, and occasionally fiddled with her hands, and the boat went straight. Going forward, walking against the current for a whole day, came to a large island and reef.

    Zhou Fei did not know how many times she had traveled. She didn't need a map or Sinan. She could make the boat turn left and right with her eyes closed. She drove the boat into a dazzling array of stones, and then got into a She put down the oars and let the current push the boat forward. It turned a few corners, and the waterway became narrower and shallower until the boat could no longer go. Zhou Fei put The boat stopped in the shallow water, and jumped lightly onto the dark shore. Without the ignition, it groped and pushed on the stone wall a few times. After walking through the door, walking into it and walking about a stick of incense, the front suddenly opened up, revealing an island house.
