Above the stars

Fenghuang had already left, and Zhong Daolong walked to the front desk to relight the cigar that Fenghuang had just cut off.

Zhong Daolong took a deep breath, looked at Chen Fenglei and asked, "How is the investigation going?"

"The situation is getting more and more complicated." Chen Fenglei stepped forward and reported in a low voice: "According to the news from the old land, not only the expedition team from the Phoenix Empire is going to Shennongjia to search for the tomb, but also the The Sri Lankan Empire and the Kaman Federation have also sent manpower to the Old Land. Obviously, someone deliberately made the map public in order to make the water as muddy as possible. The pursuit of evil in the Old Land, this line has been abolished .”

"The Sansou Palace assassin brought back by General Bai Qi also died in the prison. The clue that the ghost didn't know was also broken. I'm afraid it will take some time to pick it up again."

Zhong Daolong looked gloomy and said: "No matter how cunning a fox is, he will show his tail. The most successful thing I have done over the years is to learn to be patient."

Chen Fenglei didn't dare to speak and remained silent.

Zhong Daolong took a puff of his cigar, puffed out a big puff of smoke, and asked, "You heard everything Xiu Xue said, what do you think?"

"The king is talking about inviting some friends from her old land to Xinxing?" Chen Fenglei asked with a smile.

"You are also an old fox. What else can you do besides this?" Zhong Daolong looked at Chen Fenglei with doubtful eyes and said, "What? Is there anything in this that makes you taboo?"

"I'm just a servant, how can I arbitrarily discuss the master's family affairs?" Chen Fenglei avoided answering.

"No, it's not that simple." Zhong Daolong waved his hand, looked at Chen Fenglei and said, "With your cautious temperament, you must be worried about being implicated in the future, otherwise you wouldn't be allowed to fight on this issue. Haha. "

"What? Do you believe Bai Qi's report? Do you also think Xiuxue will have any emotional entanglements with that boy named Tang Bandit?"

"I don't really believe this. Princess Xiuxue's vision is first-class. There are so many outstanding boys around her in Phoenix City, and I haven't seen anyone she would value more. If she goes A few days in the old land is enough to treat a refugee in the old land."

"I'm sorry, I'm used to it. If it's so easy for her to develop a crush on a boy from the old land, wouldn't that make those young men in Phoenix City who call themselves geniuses embarrassed?"

"I think Princess Xiuxue fell into danger. This was the first time in her life that she encountered such a big obstacle. When she felt lost and helpless, that boy happened to appear."

"In the process of getting along later, some trust and dependence developed, which is human nature. When I was a child, I went to my grandma's house to pick fruits with my friends in the orchard for a few days. When we were separated, we cried and refused to leave."

"When Princess Xiu Xue returns to her familiar environment, with one person under her, and over ten thousand people, with flowers and wine everywhere, and friends wherever she goes, how can she still think of those little friends from the old land? They are there again What can it bring to Princess Xiuxue? How could a phoenix flying in the sky fall into a pheasant's nest?"

Zhong Daolong nodded and said, "I think so too. So General Bai Qi, what's the meaning of such a sentence?"

Chen Fenglei said with a smile: "Do your duty faithfully and report whatever you see to the king."

"I'll leave this matter to you." Zhong Daolong finally made up his mind and said. "People are also given into your hands."

"Leave it in my hands?"

"Yes." Zhong Daolong looked at Chen Fenglei and said aloud: "Although I don't believe that my Zhong Daolong's daughter will fall in love with a savage from the old land, but you should be prepared. You can still make people look like you under your nose. Isn’t he going to get angry?”

"I understand." Chen Fenglei nodded with a smile and said, "What if, I mean what if there are any sparks?"

Zhong Daolong glanced at Chen Fenglei and said, "I allow my daughter to be sad for a while, but I don't allow her to be miserable for the rest of her life."

"I understand." Chen Fenglei's expression became serious and he said in a deep voice: "My subordinates will definitely handle things beautifully."

"Yes." Zhong Daolong nodded and said, "I always feel at ease when you do things."

——

On the old soil, the night is as dark as ink.

When the old man was sleeping soundly, a faint sound came from his ears.

The old man's face changed slightly and he immediately got up from the bed.

He tiptoed to the yard and listened carefully for a while. Both Tang Bandit and Xiaopang were breathing very steadily. It seemed that both of them were sleeping peacefully.

So, he stretched out his figure, jumped over the wall, and disappeared into the darkness without a trace.

In the depths of Mount Hate, on a raised boulder, stood a middle-aged man in Tang suit.

He was holding a flute in his hand, and was quietly waiting for something.

"Lovesickness is introverted, fresh and elegant. After not seeing each other for many years, this song "Remembering Old Friend" has become more and more refined." The old man's figure appeared on the boulder and looked at the man in front of him and said.

"My eldest brother taught me this song "Remembering Old Friends". I use this song to express my nostalgia for my eldest brother. How can I not do my best?" The middle-aged man looked at the old man and said aloud.

The old man waved his hand and said, "Let's get down to business, how did you find me?"

"When I came to take Princess Snow back to the capital, I was in the Undead Army." The middle-aged man said loudly: "I took a quick glance in the air and spotted the figure of my eldest brother. When I was looking for a chance to reminisce about the past, I found that my eldest brother was nowhere to be found. trace."

The old man looked at the middle-aged man in surprise and said loudly: "I have become like this, and you can still recognize me?"

"Because when I saw my eldest brother, he was standing on the stage singing an opera." The man said in a deep voice.

"For a while, my eldest brother liked to drink and sing at the same time. He took a sip and sang a line. I can't remember the words, but the singing tone and the posture and expression while drinking are still deep in my memory."

"So, I recognized my eldest brother the first time I saw him. Others can't recognize him, but I can."

"So what if you recognize me?" The old man smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying, "I am not the same person I was then, and you are not the same person you were then. Go back and pretend you have never seen me before."

"Brother."

The old man waved his hand and said: "For my sake and for your own sake. Go back and pretend you have never seen me."

"Brother, when I come this time, I must invite you back." The man said firmly.

"What?" The old man sneered and said, "If I don't go back, why don't you arrest me? Oh, I almost forgot that you are now serving in the Undead Army. Is the dog food delicious?"

Click!

A top-quality Dongxiao in the man's hand was broken into two pieces, and he shouted angrily: "Brother, how can you miss me so much?"

"Knowing people but not knowing their hearts. After so many years, who knows what you have become? Back then, you kept saying that you would die for the Marshal, aren't you now working in the Undead Army and are prospering?"

"You" the man was speechless.

The two stared at each other, neither of them admitting defeat.

a long time.

The old man sighed softly and advised: "Zhiyong, go back. I know me and you know me. There is no need to hurt the feelings of brothers by saying these angry words. Let me leave you with a little thought. I have become In this way, this is the only thing left.”

"Brother, even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about those two children."

As soon as Lu Zhiyong finished speaking, he felt that the skin and flesh all over his body were tense and the hairs on his body stood up.

The air around him seemed to freeze, and waves of coldness like cones and swords struck the vital parts of his body.

He knew that he had been locked by a fierce energy.

Murderous intent appeared in the old man's eyes, and he asked in a deep voice, "What do you mean?"

There was a blue light on his hand, and if Lu Zhiyong's answer didn't satisfy him, he would slap it down.

Can't take risks.

This kind of thing must never be taken risk.

If this big secret is exposed, he will die, neither Tang bandit nor Xiaopang will survive.

thump!

Lu Zhiyong knelt on the ground and said loudly: "Brother, as far as I know, Princess Xiuxue has made a request to Zhong Daolong to repay her savior and take the three of you back to Xinxing. If the welcome team takes it seriously Here we come, where will you go then? Go back or not?"

"Oh?" The old man was quite surprised, and asked aloud: "Is that girl really so kind?"

"Yes, it's absolutely true." Lu Zhiyong felt his body relax, and the aura that locked him disappeared without a trace.

"If that's the case." The old man thought carefully about the doorway, and said, "It's really not suitable for me to go back with them."

"Yes. When the time comes, they will definitely investigate your identities and backgrounds. It's easy to say that the two of them are okay. No one above Xinxing knows them anyway. The words "Old Orphans" are enough to explain everything. But how can you What should I do? If those caring people know that you are together, what will they do?"

"I understand." The old man nodded and said, "If your news is true, I will leave before the people from the Phoenix Empire arrive. I am already a dead person, and there is no need to appear in front of people again."

"So, after I heard the news, I ran over to pick you up as soon as possible." Lu Zhiyong said aloud.

The old man looked at Lu Zhiyong and asked, "Does the Patriarch know I'm here?"

"I don't know for the time being." Lu Zhiyong shook his head and said, "Since you disappeared, the Patriarch has often lamented that you are the most amazing and talented person in our Lu clan. If you can go back, the Patriarch must be very happy."

"You won't exchange my head for wine money?" the old man said sarcastically.

"Brother." Lu Zhiyong became anxious and said angrily, "How did you become like this now? Everyone doubts it? If we want to kill you, it's not me who came alone, but a group of people."

"If you live here for a few years, I'm afraid you won't even believe it yourself." The old man said aloud. "The matter has come to this, and there is no better choice. I will go back with you. However, before that, I have to deal with some things."

"Okay, I'm here to pick you up this time." Lu Zhiyong said loudly: "We will go back together after you finish handling things here."

After a pause, he asked again: "Brother, what are the backgrounds of those two children?"

The old man stared at Lu Zhiyong with a smile and asked aloud: "What do you mean?"

"I know the character of big brother, and I know that your heart was ashamed at that time. If there is no special reason...how could you come here and adopt two children?"

"What can I do?" the old man said angrily: "I just wanted to find a place where I don't know anyone and spend the rest of my life in obscurity, but unexpectedly I found these two bastards. Can I throw them to feed the rats? I just thought Just keep it up, keep it up, it will grow like this. And it saved your little phoenix princess. Do you think this is ridiculous?"

"This is life." Lu Zhiyong said aloud: "Brother, go back, we are all waiting for you to go back."

"us?"

"Yes, us." Lu Zhiyong looked directly at the old man's scrutiny, with flames burning in his pupils, and said in a firm voice: "Wait until you return to take charge of the overall situation."
