Heavy snow

Daiqing Lou has not opened its door to welco and Susu, three people were hiding inside a s by the front courtyard, waiting quietly for the clothing store delivery boy

Peipei has beco was seriously wounded, relying on Kou Zhong’s strength alone, it would be i fro the roster, Shen Luoyan would definitely do everything in her power to hunt them down, because thisArainst theand looked out; he said in low voice, “I aht that you died, she was acting differently fro”

Xu Ziling was sitting cross-legged to recuperate; hearing Kou Zhong, he opened his eyes and said i! Whenever I re his head, Kou Zhong warned hiht suffer fire deviation”

Xu Ziling was shocked He realized that after sustaining serious injury, his strength was in decline, and his state of mind was prone to fluctuate Hastily he focused his attention to recover his inal crystal clear condition

Her pretty face blushi+ng slightly, Susu said, “Shen Luoyan did ask about Jiejie’s relationshi+p with you then I told her, she did not seem to be convinced Come to think about it, aze returned to the floating snowflakes filling the heaven and the earth outside He nodded and said, “Shen Poniang once said that if she , but she wanted , but now I think there is 30 truth in what she said Ha! If we can create distress in her mind, all enmity is paid in full!”

And then he excitedly said, “Hey! He’s here!”

‘Bang! Bang! Bang!’ there was a knock on the door The shop assistant holding a bundle of cloth in his hands shouted against the cold wind, “Satin brocade delivery!”

A big man came out of the main hall’s door He walked across the front courtyard, and pushed the ate a little “What is it?” he asked

The shop assistant handed the bundle over to the big hest quality silk fabric; it’s for Miss Peipei” Finished speaking, without even turning his head around he hurriedly trudged away, braving the snow

The big man was stunned; he stared blankly for half a day before carrying the bundle back into the building

Kou Zhong quickly dropped down on the floor and stuck his ear to listen to the activity downstairs

He heard a woman asked, “He Fu! What is it?”

He Fu replied, “Really strange! Sohest quality silk fabric and specifically indicated that it is for Lady Boss!”

“That is strange indeed!” the woreet the guests for a long ti to curry favor with her Just deliver it to her place, we’ll talk about it later when she co flashed out of the side-room A moment later he came back and said, “Turns out Peipei is the lady boss of this place She lives in a secluded rooht now I don’t knohere she went”

“This is not a good place to hide,” Xu Ziling said, “We’d better go to hide in her private cha Carrying Susu, he left first to lead the way Xu Ziling had no difficulty running after hi Xuyan were to personally witness the current situation, he would be shocked and would not dare to believe his eyes

Because he did not know that the ‘Secret to Long Life’ was Taoist School’s secret, which was not passed on throughout the ages It was also the secret that controlled nature; that Gods and ghosts could not co’s lower abdomen, it was blocked by the roster, so that the speed was soh for Xu Ziling to prevent the sharp tip fro fatal qi into his body

Lower abdomen was like the sea of qi, if this part ounded, it would be very difficult to recover To martial art practitioners who cultivate qi, it would be especially devastating

Yet the ‘Secret to Long Life’s’ function was precisely to save one’s life and to prolong it On top of that, there was Kou Zhong’s true qi, which ca the injury Therefore, within a period of one night, Xu Ziling was able to recovera miracle, which other people found it hard to believe Meanwhile, Kou Zhong, Xu Ziling and Susu naturally thought that it was as it should be; they were not surprised at all

It was Shen Luoyan who has miscalculated; she had the search concentrated in the dense lanes, alleys and houses within two li radius fro the three people could easily coirls of Daiqing Lou have not gotten out of bed for too long, everybody was taking a bath and changing their clothes, and have not left their roo along the corridor, so that the three people could arrive at the Lady Boss Peipei’s building without any surprise, without any danger Avoiding two young maids at the anteroom, they slipped into her personal cha pulled open the bedspread and asked shi+vering Susu to get into the quilt first, and then he had Xu Ziling lying down on the other side, while he hihed and said, “Looks like there is nothing special about the Wagang Ar to us”

Susu angrily said, “The worst thing about Xiao Zhong is that you are very easy to be co proud about yourself at that ti said, “Since leaving Yangzhou, night and day we lived a fugitive life I really e could find a place with verdant hills and li a quiet and peaceful life”

Susu excitedly went into detailed discussion on what kind of place would be ideal for the asked about Yang Xuyan’she knew, as if he was still terrified he said, “This person’s internal energy has reached the ‘following-one’s-heart-desires’ level; not only the tip of his sword could spit out qi power, it was even divided further into hundreds and thousands strea force, so that I was completely unable to displaymuttered to himself, “This is very unusual for sure, but since he could achieve it, we ought to be able to do the sa,” Susu was curious, “You really could not see his appearance clearly?”

‘That’s what ht was dark without any light, but clearly my vision was filled with sword rays, plus his host or a demon; I could not even tell whether he is tall or short, fat or thin”

Kou Zhong slapped his thigh, “I understand,” he said, “Try pressing your eyeball with your finger; very quickly you will see stars Yang Xuyanthis principle; he used the sword qi to create pressure to your eyes, so that your uy can be considered really for nodded, “Perhaps it did happen like you said,” he said, “But his sas even et, but suddenly it hit empty air, and the real strike came, it was so slick that I could not block it No wonder there are so e under his sword”

Kou Zhong breathed out a uy is really proficient Huh?”

The three of the from afar, even Susu was able to hear it Followed by the two maids in the outer hall spoke in chorus, “Madame is back!”

Inside the roo that finally they were going to find Peipei

A somewhat cold and detach, deep, but pleasant to hear female voice spoke, “What is this?”

One of the ht a bolt of silk fabric fro clearly that it was for Mada”

Peipei was silent for half a day before finally spoke cal for me”

The twohis ears to eavesdrop, Kou Zhong heard Peipei sat down; he whispered, “Let’s hear what they have to say first”

Xu Ziling said, “Isn’t Yun Niang the flirtatious lady who received us the other day?”

Kou Zhong nodded

Suddenly the three people felt soht now it could be said that Peipei was their last hope

If this road is blocked, then they could only rely on their oer to escape

Previously, when Xu Ziling was not injured, it was already hard to accoht not it was evenarrived After dis the tworespectfully replied, “I have investigated thisthe cloth must be Susu, the time was yesterday afternoon It appears that the two boys are using the ‘toss a stone to find out what’s ahead’ trick trying to find Mada inside the roo about the’s voice did not have any trace of politeness

Chapter 5, Part 2

Peipei was silent for half a day; she said, “It should be so But I a is injured by Yang Xuyan, whether he will live or die is still to be seen Shen Luoyan is going all-out to search for thedared to interfere, she would not be polite Therefore, we si and the others, three people, heard this, they looked at each other, their hearts sank

Outside, Yun Niang griped, “This ti Ar?”

Peipei said, “The only way is to cooperate nicely with Shen Luoyan Just noent out bywould show himself to meet with me And noe have confirmation that he has not come, I will notify Shen Luoyan about this matter If they did come, you have to try to detain them here; wait for , she went out of the room

Now that the three people’s last hope was dashed, after putting everything in the rooinal condition, they quietly left

Using the heavy snow as a cover, with Kou Zhong carrying Susu on his back, they swiftly traversed several buildings, and reached the large garden of Xu shi+ji’s official residence

After surveying the surroundings for ato Chen Laomou’s instruction, Xu shi+ji’s office must be in one of the side roo’s city blueprint ought to be there as well”

Xu Ziling said, “That will be easy to find out Let’s go!”

The three crossed the garden and headed toward the front courtyard

By this ti’s experience was already very rich; they knehen to come and when to leave, hence they stopped and proceeded accordingly After avoiding several servants and maids of the mansion, they arrived at Xu shi+ji’s study, a room filled with scroll after scroll of docu Chen Laoh the docuinal conditions so that not a trace of sign would be found that they have been manipulated
