Chapter 371 If the enemy doesn't move, don't you just move in vain?
If you only learn light work
Xu Fengnian's persistence for a long time was a little shaken, he looked at Zhou Ji with a complicated expression, and sighed, "Why are you so kind to me?"
"I just want you to be able to protect yourself in the face of danger." Zhou Ji said calmly and sincerely with his usual expression.
"." Xu Fengnian's heart warmed, and he couldn't help feeling a little moved.
As the eldest son of Beiliang, Xu Fengnian feels that he has been living in a big net woven by Xu Xiao. Only Nangong Pushe and Zhou Ji are the two who accidentally broke into his world.
Turning his head to look away, for some reason, Xu Fengnian actually felt his nose a little sore, "Why did you suddenly stir up emotions, you have a wife."
"Ah~" Jiang Ni had never seen Xu Fengnian lose his composure since he was a child, and he couldn't help but widen his eyes and cover his mouth, and his eyes lit up with a light that he had never imagined before.
"What's the name of the monster?" Xu Fengnian glared at Jiang Ni, reprimanded him, and said to Zhou Ji, "Is it because of the person who resembles me?"
"Otherwise?" Zhou Ji nodded slightly and said with a smile, "You two look so much alike, and your words and deeds are also quite similar. Seeing that you are in such a dangerous situation now, I want to give you a hand."
Some people have practiced for a long time, and their emotions gradually degenerate.
Too ruthless, too forgetful.
Zhou Ji didn't want to do this.
Born as a human, he wants to retain his humanity, not a cold-blooded, indifferent fairy god.
Zhou Ji doesn't know the future direction of this world, nor does he know what difficulties Xu Fengnian will face in the future. If he refuses to learn martial arts, even if he is the son of Bei Liang, it will be difficult for him to gain a foothold in the world dominated by martial arts.
If you want to learn lightness kung fu, you must practice the matching mental method. Even if you reach the level of Zhou Ji's soul piercing thief saint, it will be difficult to catch him at the first-grade diamond state.
In this way, it is enough.
Xu Fengnian was silent for a moment, suddenly seemed to think of something, and said in surprise: "The person you are talking about is my mother?"
"." Zhou Ji shook his head and said, "No."
"That's Xu Xiao?" Xu Fengnian frowned slightly and shook his head, "According to others, I look more like my mother."
"Neither." Seeing that Xu Fengnian wanted to brainstorm wild guesses by himself again, Zhou Ji interrupted his thoughts, and took the initiative to explain, "His name is Fan Xian, he is the first friend I met, and he is also the best. one."
"Fan Xian." Xu Fengnian read the name in a low voice, inexplicably feeling a sense of deja vu familiarity in his heart, as if it was a misty cloud, unfathomable.
They are not twins. How can there be two people who look and behave the same in the world?
Xu Fengnian suppressed the messy thoughts in his heart, glanced at the young fish Wei who was fixed in place, slapped his forehead, and then remembered the business.
A few days ago, I was assassinated by a Western Chu euphorbia outside the city. Tonight, Yu Youwei performed the Western Chu court sword dance. According to the questions that Yu Youwei asked when chasing and killing people all over the house, Yu Youwei was obviously used by others , thinking that Xu Xiao slaughtered the palace of Chu State and cut off the head of the princess, so he was willing to be a dead soldier and hibernate in the brothel.
Asking Zhou Ji to unlock the acupuncture points on Yu Youwei's body, Xu Fengnian looked at Jiang Ni and asked her to take out the strange short dagger that she carried with her.
Yu Youwei recognized at a glance that this dagger was the supreme treasure of the Chu State, the 'Shen Talisman'. After carefully examining Jiang Ni's appearance, she found that she was quite similar to the Queen of Chu whom she had seen when she was young.
Zhou Ji glanced at Xu Fengnian and Jiang Ni with some surprise. He could feel that the two had a mutual affection and an extraordinary relationship, but he didn't expect that this thin and small girl was actually the princess of the Western Chu Kingdom.
Zhou Ji was holding a flowerpot, eating a big melon with Si Teng, turned his head to look at Nangong Pushe, who seemed to have nothing changed, and said, "You knew about this a long time ago?"
"Who she is has nothing to do with me." Nangong Pushe shook his head, stared at Zhou Ji with cold and sharp eyes, and said in a deep voice, "Compared with that, I want to know your strength more?"
Got~ I met another martial idiot.
Wait, why did I say again?
Zhou Ji caressed the branches and leaves of the vines, felt the fierce fighting spirit in Nangong Pushe's gaze, and said with a smile: "Since Miss Nangong wants to go to the Chaoting Pavilion to read books, you might as well wait until you read all the books and walk out of the Chaoting Pavilion , how about I tell the girl again?"
"Okay!" Nangong Pushe lowered his hands from the handle of the knife and nodded seriously.
Since Jiang Ni is hiding in Xu Fengnian's mansion, Yuyouwei naturally wants to be there to protect her, and with the assassination of Xu Fengnian just now, no matter what happens next, she is no longer suitable to stay in the brothel.
After the farce, Xu Fengnian took Yuyouwei back home and ordered Sweet Potato to arrange a place for her. Zhou Ji and Nangong Pushe also returned to their own rooms to rest.
Only Chu Lushan took off his armor and knelt in the Shiziyuan overnight to make amends. He didn't dare to get up until it was bright.
Xu Fengnian had just gotten up when Zhou Ji finished picking the morning dew to clean the branches and leaves for Si Teng and was about to go back to his room.
Seeing that he was in a hurry as if he was looking for something, Nangong Pushe agreed to his **** contract, so he came to the yard early in the morning and stood under the corridor to watch his performance.
On the open space, tables, chairs and tea sets had been arranged long ago. Xu Fengnian flicked the python whip in his hand, and there was a crackling sound in the air. He paced up to Chu Lushan, and said with a half-smile, "Hey, why is General Chu still here?" Kneeling in my yard? Are you not going back to the barracks?"
Chu Lushan lowered his head, knelt down in the tunnel, "Your Majesty, just call me Lu Qiuer."
"Don't dare." Xu Fengnian sat on the armchair in front of Chu Lushan holding the python whip, looked down at him and said, "If you dare to scream again, you don't know which assassin's house you will take me to next time."
Chu Lushan said anxiously, "My lord, I really didn't know Yu Youwei was an assassin!"
"General Chu, please go back. I have no official title and no military position. I'm sorry to let you kneel down here." Xu Fengnian put the python whip on the table, and the sound of the rivets on the handle hitting the table was transmitted to Chu Lushan He was so frightened that he couldn't help shivering, and lowered his head a little.
"Chu Lushan is willing to be punished." Chu Lushan said loudly.
Xu Fengnian stood up with a cold snort, picked up the python whip again, and saw Zhou Ji walking towards him from a distance.
Zhou Ji glanced at Chu Lushan who was kneeling in the open space, then at the python whip in Xu Fengnian's hand, and said with a smile, "What kind of drama is this? It can't be a trick, right?"
Xu Fengnian's originally calm and confident expression became a little stiff, and Chu Lushan's deeply buried head also froze when he was kneeling on the ground.
"It makes sense." Zhou Ji nodded in agreement, and did not say anything to refute Xu Fengnian. He came to the bottom of the corridor with the flowerpot in his arms, but the python whip that Xu Fengnian raised again never came down.
Everyone knows that Xu Fengnian and Chu Lushan have the closest relationship, and Chu Lushan is also one of the few Xu Xiao's six adopted sons who stand on Xu Fengnian's side.
Chu Lushan and Xu Fengnian can turn against each other with just one whipping. Perhaps outsiders can believe it, but the mastermind behind the scenes who has been hiding in Beiliang for so long, even Xu Xiao can't be sure, will never give up the caution he has been doing for so long. Just expose yourself in front of Chu Lushan.
Even if, even if Chu Lushan really resented Xu Fengnian because of this, the mastermind behind the scenes just needs to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, hiding in the dark and doing their own things.
Why is it necessary to take this muddy water?
In short: If the enemy doesn't move, don't you move in vain?
"Hit!" Chu Lushan lowered his head, squeezed out a few words from between his teeth, "Hit, son!"
Xu Fengnian slowly lowered the python whip he was holding high, and returned to his seat to support his forehead to reflect. Only then did he realize that his calculation was too superficial, and he could only passively wait for the opponent to join the game. It's all self-directed and self-acted useless work.
If you want the opponent to make a move, you must block all the opponent's escape routes, forcing it to make a move.
But right now Xu Fengnian doesn't have enough chess pieces at all. If he doesn't do this, he doesn't even know what else he can do.
While he was hesitating, General Wu Dian of Fengziying, who had escorted him back, begged to see him outside. Not only Ning Emei, but also many generals in the North Star Army were begging to see Xu Xiao outside the gate of the general's mansion. Only those who dared to confront Xu Fengnian directly Ning Emei was alone.
"Could it be that the black hands hiding behind the scenes are stupid?" Xu Fengnian had met Ning Emei before, knew that this person was arrogant, upright, and always looked down on him, so he didn't have much doubt about him.
After some confrontation, the legal principles do not make sense, so it can only talk about will.
Xu Fengnian looked at Ning Emei who was kneeling beside Chu Lushan, snorted coldly, and said with a flick of his sleeve, "Since you want to kneel, then kneel with him!"
Ning Emei people, as the name suggests, would rather fold than give up, kneeling upright on the spot, looking at Xu Fengnian resolutely and proudly, if Chu Lushan does not leave, he will not leave!
After a while, a maid in the front yard ran to Qingniao to send a message, and Qingniao stepped forward to report, "My lord, Chen Zhibao is on his way."
Zhou Ji put the flowerpot on the fence beside him, looked at Nangong Pu who was leaning on the red pillar with his arms crossed and said, "If I remember correctly, Chen Zhibao is also Xu Xiao's adopted son, right?"
Nangong Pushe leaned against the pillars of the corridor, glanced at the flower pots on the side, changed another pillar and moved it to the other side, "Chen Zhibao, the immortal in white clothes, is the number one general of Beiliang under Xu Xiao, and the head of the six adopted sons, Bei Starling Dinghai Needle."
While speaking, a figure in white armor came from the front yard, the cloth bag in his hand was already soaked with blood, and a strong smell of blood came over his face.
Nangong Pushe subconsciously put his hand on the handle of the knife, but Zhou Ji let the opponent pass behind him, his expression unchanged as usual.
Chen Zhibao casually threw the bag in front of Xu Fengnian, and Jade Bird subconsciously took two steps forward to block between the two of them.
Knowing that Chen Zhibao had decapitated the prisoner who released his portrait and arranged for the oiran to enter the Zijin Building, Xu Fengnian's eyes instantly turned cold.
‘Big fish. Take the bait? '
Chen Zhibao glanced at Chu Lushan disdainfully, and was not afraid of Xu Fengnian's cold gaze, and said calmly, "Shall we talk alone?"
In Beiliang Palace, under the watchful eyes of everyone, even if Xu Fengnian doubted Chen Zhibao, he believed that he would never dare to hurt his life at this time, so he agreed to his request without hesitation, and the two walked towards the back of the corridor. go.
Zhou Ji glanced over, and a familiar little girl tiptoed behind them, but they didn't know that their whereabouts were already in their eyes.
Turning his head to look at Nangong Pushe, Zhou Ji held up a flower pot and invited, "Xu Fengnian was dragged away by Chen Zhibao to whisper, and it's meaningless to stay here. I plan to go out for a walk, isn't it your first time in Lingzhou?" City? Go for a walk together?"
The corners of Nangong Pushe's mouth curled up slightly, his clear and bright eyes were obviously smiling, but his tone of voice was inexplicably cynical.
"Your wife is here~ it's inappropriate."
Nangong Pushe finished speaking, put his hands on the blade, got up and walked in front of Zhou Ji.
"Forget it if you don't go, what's wrong with Yin and Yang?" Zhou Ji lowered his half-stretched arm, shook his head and said, "At worst, I'll ask Lao Huang to go with me."
The vine stretched out and wrapped around Zhou Ji's fingers, the swaying branches seemed to agree with Nangong Pushe's words, and wanted to go out alone with him.
"All right, all right, I'll listen to you." Zhou Ji showed a helpless smile, fondled the swaying buds lovingly, explained to Qingniao, and walked out of the mansion with the flowerpot in his arms.
Believe partly and you will be dark, but listen to you will be bright.
Needless to say that Lingzhou is prosperous, the main reason why Zhou Ji left the mansion was to get in touch with ordinary people in this world, instead of nesting in a corner of the general's mansion and watching Xu Fengnian fighting against the air every day.
Every world has its own characteristics, whether it is humanities or other things, there are both similarities and differences.
Zhou Ji was wandering around the market with a flower pot in his arms, and walked to the busiest main street, when he suddenly saw a crowd gathering in front of him, a scholar in a Confucian shirt climbed onto the carriage, and made a speech on the roof, denouncing Xu Xiao as a serious threat to the imperial court , Thief who steals the country.
‘Is this the common knowledge of this era? '
Zhou Ji looked interesting, and after listening for a while, it was mostly Xu Xiao who supported himself and threatened the government and the public; he also disrespected the etiquette of Confucian classics and books, and was barbaric.
If it’s just the visit of the Lin family, it’s not that interesting. Is the girl under the carriage handing him water to wipe his sweat, which caught Zhou Ji’s attention.
Appearance looks gentle and pleasant, understanding.
But there is always a feeling of 'emptiness'.
Zhou Ji used to be a saint of robbers, wandering the rivers and lakes for many years, he had never seen any kind of liar, and he could see at a glance that this girl had ulterior motives for Lin Tanhua, and she was not as admiring as she appeared on the surface.
And Lin Tanhua herself is not as weak as she appears on the surface, and her martial arts should be in the lower third of the nine ranks. It should be no problem to kill Xu Fengnian.
Wait, why did you kill Xu Fengnian?
Zhou Ji twitched the corner of his mouth, raised his forehead and said, am I infected by this stuff?
As the distance grew, there were more and more people, pedestrians pointing and discussing. It seems that there are not many people who agree with Lin Tanhua, but those who laugh at him account for the majority.
