Shao Zhi continued, "The refining process of the Gu worm is going on in a mysterious courtyard. Last night, an outsider went to that courtyard and even stole a lot of my things. Who do you think made this?"

Zhang Yi thought about it and said, "I don't know."

Shao Zhi sneered, "It can't be someone close to this old man, right?"

He had used the word "close" in a particularly forceful way.

Zhang Yi's heart trembled, and said: "It should be... "It can't be?"

"Don't tell this old man that someone is trying to steal from me!" Shao Zhi coldly said, "Will you?"

Zhang Yi quickly said, "Your subordinate would never do that!"

Shao Zhi looked at Zhang Yi, slowed down, and said, "What are you afraid of? This old man didn't say it's you!"

"Yes, this subordinate is ignorant!" Zhang Yi was so scared that he had no choice but to obey.

Shao Zhi glanced at the roof and said, "Then tell me, who is most likely to do this kind of thing?!"

"This subordinate is not ?"

"This old man will let you guess!" Shao Zhi angrily interrupted Zhang Yi and said, "Analyze it, isn't this what you scholars know the most!"

Zhang Yi trembled and said, "Your subordinate's conjecture ? "I think Dugu Wuye sent someone to do it."

"Humph!" Shao Zhi said, "Can this Dugu Qiye really do that much? Can he break the Eight Trigrams Formation that I invited experts to modify?"

Zhang Yi said, "Dugu Qiye has countless geniuses, so this subordinate feels that it is not impossible. Besides, other than Dugu Qiye who knows some inside information, almost no one in this martial arts forest knows about Lord Dugu's refining of a Gu worm, right?"

When Shao Zhi heard this, he felt that it was reasonable. He turned around to look at Zhang Yi and said, "Get up. Even if I hang you won't dare to steal my things!"

Zhang Yi stood up, patting his knees, and said: "Thank you, master."

"How could this Dugu Qiye invade my mansion?!" Shao Zhi angrily said, "This old man has ambushed many trusted experts outside the mansion, how can he come in without leaving a trace!"

Zhang Yi said: "This subordinate has heard that Dugu Qiye is proficient in the art of altering the appearance of his subordinates, so I presume that his subordinates are also 'faceless' people. I'm afraid that there might already be a traitor within the manor!"

Shao Zhi said, "Impossible, many people in the mansion have been restricted from going out by this old man recently, it's absolutely impossible!"

She then frowned and mumbled, "Could it be..."

"I think so too. It's possible that Dugu Qiye is one of those tycoons."

Shao Zhi stroked his beard as he coldly said, "So many groups of heroes, how do we investigate?"

Zhang Yi said, "It is indeed a problem, and secretly, if someone were to investigate this matter, they should have already escaped. Wouldn't it be dangerous if they didn't stay here?"

Shao Zhi didn't say anything as he pondered about something.

At this time, Zhang Yi suddenly asked, "Then, is the Six King's Ring still there?"

When Shao Zhi heard this, he laughed out loud and said, "You little rogue, it's absolutely impossible for you to steal my Sixth King's Ring! It's just that this old man has been robbed of a few rare treasures! "

Shao Zhi looked at Zhang Yi and saw that he was covered in cold sweat.

The two of them pondered for a moment, then Shao Zhi said, "You can leave first, just go inform Fan Erhu and Zhenke, telling them to get ready immediately. I think those people from the Blood Devil Sect should be arriving soon!"

Zhang Yi nodded and backed out of the door.

Shao Zhi picked up the teacup from the table and coldly looked at the door as he muttered, "This old man wants you to continue pretending."

"..."

Heroes' Hall.

It was afternoon and the sun shone brightly under the gentle autumn light. The four courtyards were all blessed. As the old trees scattered in the wind, rings of light could be seen on the ground. The sky was endless, like a torrential river. It stretched as far as the eye could see, with numerous clouds and white, feather-like like feathers. Borrowing the sunlight to display its beautiful ornament, it moved through the vast sky, as though it was a lifetime ago.

A courtyard was the busiest, the group of people began to compete with each other, looking displeased.

The sound of the cars and horses coming in could be heard. After less than four hours of sleep, he had become a little listless, but if he continued to sleep, he would lose his interest. Outside, he would be constantly disturbing the situation, causing even the Saints to feel sad. Zi You had to wash his face and pick up the book of ancient poems from the table to look at it. I want to know the relationship between the two kings, and I want to live a long and eternal life. Mausoleum without mountains, exhausted rivers, shaken winter lightning, summer rain and snow, the combination of the heavens and the earth, do you dare to be together with Jun Jue! " After this line, Yang Tian let out a long sigh, as if he wanted to look at the face of the person in his heart from this world. Like this, time flew by, and several hours passed before the afternoon arrived.

On the other side, when Chu Ming woke up, he looked much more spirited. He looked outside and guessed that it was probably the end of the day and the beginning of the time. He must have slept for several hours. He could not help but sigh.

Gold flapped his wings as he welcomed Chu Ming. Chu Ming grabbed it and stroked its head, saying, "I'll take you to look for food."

Jin cleverly rubbed against Chu Ming.

Chu Ming put the gold on his shoulder, washed his face, and went out of the room. Just as he went out, he saw Xue Bailing already sitting on a stone bench. He couldn't help but say, "Bailing."

When Xue Bailing heard this, he turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"

Chu Ming laughed, "Seeing you sitting so obediently on the stone bench, I feel very strange."

Xue Bailing rolled her eyes at him. "I'm thinking about something!"

"What are you thinking about?" Chu Ming walked up to her and sat opposite her.

"I miss home." Xue Bailing said, "We've already been out for two months."

Chu Ming held the words and calculated, then said with a smile, "It's about time."

Xue Bailing said, "There's still Mt. Tai. I wonder if he's been saved."

Chu Ming patted her head and said, "Don't worry, your father and the people from the Hall of Rejuvenation are experts in this area. Nothing will happen to them."

"I hope so." Xue Bailing pulled Chu Ming's hand away and said, "Do you take me for that bird? Why are you rubbing my head?!"

Chu Ming grinned and said, "That's different."

"What's the difference!" Xue Bailing said angrily, "I'm not talking nonsense with you!" Tell me about your next plans. "

Chu Ming looked at Xue Bailing and asked, "What other plans do you have?" One step at a time. "

Xue Bailing asked, "You're not really planning on fighting Dugu Qi Ye, are you?"

"How could that be? Brother Ziyou and I don't have to risk our lives." Chu Ming shook his head and said, "We wanted to wait until the battle between Dugu Qiye and Shao Zhi started before taking advantage of the chaos to run away. Otherwise, with so many experts waiting outside to ambush us, if we managed to escape, we'll be treated as thieves and killed."

Xue Bailing smiled. "We were the ones who stole it."

"That's why we're letting Dugu Xingye pay the bill." Chu Ming laughed, "You're too straightforward, it's impossible for you not to understand scheming."

"Humph!"

At this moment, Zi You walked into the courtyard. When he saw the two of them, he hurriedly said with a smile, "You two sure love each other. Did you flirt around so early in the morning?"

Xue Bailing and Chu Ming both blushed when they heard this. At the same time, they said, "Nonsense, how could that happen!"

When Zi You heard this, he waved his hand and said, "Hahaha, the word 'don't attack' is broken."

Chu Ming quickly changed the topic, "Brother Zi You, why are you looking for us?"

Zi You said, "It's neither. I've come to look for this courtyard."

The two of them were puzzled.

Zi You explained, "The courtyard is quiet, but Miss Xue has good eyes. That courtyard of mine is very noisy. Today, I've only slept for less than four hours."

Chu Ming laughed, "What a tragedy."

Zi You waved his hand and said, "Don't mention it."

"Then how about we discuss tonight's plan?" Xue Bailing asked.

Zi You was surprised for a moment before he smiled and said, "Good, good, good. I also want to specifically explain this matter to you so that you don't have to make any mistakes."
