Li Tian Zodiac

Chapter 19

"Are you going to see Second Brother?" Duan Shuangming looked at Shen Changling and asked.

It's been a long time since that attack, and it's not unimaginable to meet someone you haven't seen for a long time. Speaking of it, it seems that there has been no news about Duan Fengya for a long time...

Hearing this, Shen Changling nodded, a little hesitation flashed in his eyes.

I don't know what's going on with him recently. The last time something happened suddenly, and I don't know if I can know his details this time.

As long as I can know that he is safe and sound...

Thinking of this, Shen Changling then said hastily: "Actually, I don't have to see him, I... just a little worried, um... so I want to know more..."

There are rare interruptions in the words, showing the rare and complicated mood of its owner.

"It doesn't matter. I just want to go over to see how the situation is going. It's okay to take you there." Duan Shuangming said in a nonchalant tone.

Anyway, the second brother will definitely not meet people, and his current situation cannot withstand more interruptions.But it's not impossible to understand his current situation.

Moreover, a complex meaning flashed in the man's eyes, and he looked at Shen Changling inexplicably: I think the second brother would also like to know how this person's current situation is.

"Second brother probably also wants to know, you...our current situation." With a light smile to comfort the person in front of him, Duan Shuangming got up elegantly, and took him to Dongnuan Pavilion with big strides.

If he is already familiar with this place, he nodded skillfully to the leader of Anbu who was on duty, Duan Shuangming didn't say anything more to him.

After all, the dark part of Qianji Pavilion has always been managed by the second brother, while Duan Xuehuai is in charge of the hidden guards on the bright side. He has always been inseparable from the two.

Pushing open the door that had been waiting outside for a long time, this time Shen Changling really entered here.

It is said to be a warm pavilion, but in fact it is not much worse than those palaces. He only saw the exquisite murals covered by the hanging curtains extending gracefully to the interior separated by the screen.

It's very warm here, this is Shen Changling's feeling as soon as he stepped in, there is no charcoal-burning stove, and there are no heating pipes, but it is very warm here.

As if seeing the other party's doubts, Duan Shuangming looked at the tall hollow wooden door casually, and after shutting everyone out, pointed to the ground and explained: "Dongnuan Pavilion is located in a remote place, but there is a huge hot spring nearby, and Underneath, some of the hot springs are drained by pipes to make earth dragons, so it is very suitable for sheltering from the cold in autumn and winter."

"But this place is really too remote. Except for him..., very few people like this place." As he spoke, Duan Shuangming's eyes flashed, and an inexplicable sigh came out of his mouth, which seemed to bring With this to go through the vicissitudes of the years.

It was impossible for ambitious people like them to choose such a place that seemed to be isolated from things.

Only he, and only he would like it...

He kept walking, but Duan Shuangming's walking speed seemed to be slightly stagnant because of this, as if he had sunk into the diaphragm of his memory.But Shen Changling was not careful enough to notice this tiny difference.

He looked up to the back of a mural of flowers, birds, fish and insects, and his heart moved: that should be Duan Fengya's residence for healing. Although we can't meet each other, it's good to know his current condition.

"Look at this screen. It's placed just right. It can block sight and cover certain sounds. If someone hides behind, the people in the front hall probably won't be able to notice it." Noticing his Duan Shuangming smiled, and said somewhat ambiguously.

The screen he pointed to was on the passage from the empty front hall to the back room. Shen Changling found that the screen was almost as high as the roof, and it was inlaid with unknown wooden carved patterns. Beautiful and heavy.

At least to him, it looks very heavy, and it does feel like one man is in charge of the gate, and ten thousand men can't open it.

"That's right, so if you hide here, you won't be discovered by the people in front?" Shen Changling turned around and asked after he pushed tentatively, and found that it was indeed very important.

With such a decoration, if there are any strange killers hiding behind, wouldn't it be easy to be ignored.

But when he walked to the back, Shen Changling realized again, it turned out that behind the screen was a long corridor leading to the backyard.

Since it is not a completely independent space, the people who use this place to hide will probably be discovered soon.

"If it's just for a while, I guess no one will notice it, so generally speaking, there will be someone on duty here." Duan Shuangming nodded at the door, and pointed to the surrounding directions.

Following his guidance, Shen Changling immediately sensed the mystery: if the person on duty at the back was replaced, the attendants behind the screen and the main hall must be able to find out, and their The same thing will be clearly seen by the people on duty in the temple.

In this way, there is no need to be afraid of being taken advantage of.

"I remember that he doesn't seem to be able to let strangers get close, isn't it appropriate for us to go in now?" Shen Changting asked as he walked into the corridor.

He found that the Eleventh Palace seemed to like to build corridors, and what he was walking on now was a wooden corridor, and two people would make a slight clicking sound when stepping on it.

"At that time, the servants who were in charge of serving only stayed outside for a short time. After the things were arranged, no one was allowed to enter here again. It was not because they would disturb the second brother, but because different people would bring different things. There are all kinds of qi, and too complicated qi is not suitable for him to cultivate." After walking through this empty long corridor, Duan Shuangming led him to the door of a room.

As soon as you get close, you can feel the heat rising from there, and it seems to have a very quiet medicinal fragrance.

Shen Changling sniffed, not sure if it was his own illusion.

"This is the medicine spring, and this room is where the second elder brother cultivated." Duan Shuangming explained, and under Shen Changling's sight, he lightly knocked on the heated wooden door.

"Second Brother, we're here to see you." Duan Shuangming said.

Shen Changling couldn't help being surprised, the person in front of him was too indifferent and casual, as if he had been here many times and was very familiar with it.

But doesn't it mean that strangers should not come to visit at will?

"I have already greeted my second brother before coming here, otherwise, do you think we can come here if he disagrees?" Duan Shuangming seemed to have a sly look in his eyes. Knocking on the palm of his hand, he looked at him with a smile.

After all, it is a place for healing. If no precautions are taken and anyone can enter, wouldn't it be a mess of the original intention.

So before he came, he had already asked the second brother, so that the other party could open the protective barrier and let them in.

"Please come in." A peaceful and lonely voice came from inside, which seemed a little erratic under the steam.

Pushing open the door, Shen Changling walked in nervously, and then the door was opened a crack and then closed.

Very dark, that was his first impression.

It seems that there is no light in the room, and the doors and windows are tightly closed. Looking over the past, you can only see the hazy arrangement of tables and chairs in the darkness.

It was damp, that was his second impression.

But it's not surprising, Shen Changling thought, after all, it's where the hot springs are, so it's inevitable that there will be a lot of humid air.

But the furniture here should be quite waterproof, otherwise I am afraid that there is no way to withstand the long-term moisture intrusion.

They waited behind the screen by the door—screen again, and the other seemed to be speaking to them at a distance, and no one thought to come any closer.

"How are you all? I heard that you were also attacked that night. Unfortunately, I fell into a coma too quickly and didn't have time to tell you in detail." The still peaceful voice floated with the water vapor, that lonely and cold voice It felt as if it was soaked in water vapor, and it became a lot gentler, and there was a hint of apology in the voice.

"Fortunately, the other party just tried it out, and didn't make too much entanglement. Moreover, Chang Ling is good at using his spiritual power. It seems that the second brother taught you very well. Are you right, Chang Ling ?” The people around him responded, Shen Changling couldn't see his expression clearly, but he could feel the eyes falling on him.

The other party also seemed a little surprised. In the dark, he didn't speak, but waited silently for an answer.

This was the first time someone around him called him so intimately, Shen Changling was slightly surprised, but he continued: "Yes... yes, those people suddenly appeared at that time, it was really very dangerous..."

It seemed that he was a little shy, he spoke intermittently, but then he got better again, like a friend whom he hadn’t seen for a long time, he would feel a little strange at first, and then after finding the familiar feeling in the past, he would not be there again. There is a gap.

The other party seemed to chuckle slightly, and then separated by a screen, in the steamy dark room, although the two could not see each other, they still communicated with each other for a long time.

Duan Shuangming waited quietly by the side, answering a few words casually from time to time, as if she didn't feel anxious at all, and just let the two of them get along with each other to their heart's content during this rare time.

After all, if you want to meet next time, you have to wait until the next stage, and I am afraid it will take a long, long time.

Duan Shuangming raised his hand to disperse the moisture on the two people's clothes. He didn't know what he was looking at through the darkness, and then turned his head to stare at the people around him.

The look in his eyes flickered, countless emotions flowed through, and then he hid it - it seems that the second brother really likes this person beside him, after all these years, he has never seen him be so dedicated to any friend Try to be considerate...

However, he suddenly smiled, the curvature of the corner of his mouth was enough to fascinate thousands of girls, and he said silently: I am not bad, at least the other party still has a good impression of me, if there is really a competition...

Heh, he smiled slightly, after all, the future is long...

After everything was over, Duan Shuangming walked out of the room with the reluctant Shen Changling.

There was a lonely sound of water coming from inside the house, and the sun was already setting outside the house.

"Xue Huai was called out to deal with some matters. Recently, you need to practice your spiritual power well. In a few days, I will take you to the market together."

The author has something to say: there is no small theater today (Duan Fengya is watching you~), and please remember the huge and heavy soundproof screen in the hall, maybe it will come in handy in a long time, a long, long, long time ~

(Duan Shuangming: Hee hee hee~ Duan Fengya is still watching you~)
