Xiaoshengxianzhuang, front courtyard.

Brothers Yan Lu and Zhang Liang walked side by side in the corridor.

The sun in the sky was just right at this time, shining on the pool in the courtyard, reflecting the sparkling waves.

"Zifang, have you heard everything about the past few days?" Yan Lu put one hand behind his back and asked with a smile on his face.

Zhang Liang raised his eyebrows, as if he was suddenly aware, "Senior brother, are you talking about General Meng Tian leading his army to retreat to Xianyang overnight?"

"Of course I've heard about this. After all, there was such a big commotion."

Looking at Zhang Liang pretending to be stupid, Yan Lu did not expose him and continued:

"Do you think General Meng's withdrawal means that the situation in Songhai will stabilize?"

"Safe..." Zhang Liang pretended to think for a while, nodded, and then shook his head.

"What does the ovary mean?"

"Haha, Liang means that for ordinary people, General Meng's withdrawal does mean that the situation is beginning to calm down."

"But if we really want to restore the peace of the past, I'm afraid we have to wait until the mirage officially sets sail."

"As for us 'extraordinary' people, I'm afraid everything is just the beginning."

"It seems that Zifang has some ideas?" Yan Luyi asked pointedly.

"Idea..." Zhang Liang pursed his lips and smiled, and suddenly changed the subject, "Senior brother, do you know who the guests Haiyue Xiaozhu will receive tomorrow!"

"Tomorrow?" Yan Lu was stunned and asked, "Isn't it a good day tomorrow?"

"Senior brother, please don't forget that there are several distinguished guests in the city who do not need to abide by the rules of Haiyue Xiaozhu."

"Zifang, please stop showing off." Yan Lu simply didn't want to think about it anymore and urged directly.

"Tomorrow, Prime Minister Li Si will host a banquet for His Royal Highness Fusu, the eldest son." Seeing this, Zhang Liang stopped talking nonsense and made everything clear.

"Li Si..." Yan Lu suddenly caught the key.

Little Saint Xian Manor is currently experiencing a troubled time, and the greatest source of danger is none other than Li Si, the Prime Minister of the Empire.

"Did Zifang know anything in advance?" Yan Lu blinked and asked pointedly.

"I can't say I know it. Just like what you said, senior brother, I just have some ideas." Zhang Liang responded with a smile, "Confucianism and Mohism have always been regarded as prominent schools by the world, but now the Mohists have become out-and-out rebellious traitors. Senior brother

How do you think Confucianism should deal with it?"

"Is the ovary starting to worry?" Yan Lu turned his eyes to the front and asked calmly.

Zhang Liang shook his head, "I'm not worried, but thinking about how to deal with it."

"Some things are destined to come."

"After the recent encirclement and suppression operations, although the Mohist family has not been directly uprooted, it has been forced to enter a state of dormancy to the greatest extent."

"Nowadays, the most conspicuous thing in Songhai is the Little Sage Village."

"Since Zifang knows this truth, why should he get involved?" Yan Lu asked rhetorically.

Zhang Liang smiled when he heard this and replied, "Senior brother, do you regret supporting my nonsense?"

"There's nothing to regret." Yan Lu shook his head indifferently, "I'm just supporting my fellow disciples."

"If we really want to discuss this topic, it's something you and senior brother should consider."

"Zifang, will you regret what you did today?"

"I..." Zhang Liang pondered for a long time, then shook his head, "I don't know."

"I always feel that what I did was never wrong and I will never regret it."

"But when the words came to my lips, I couldn't say them out for some reason."

"Hahaha..." Yan Lu couldn't help laughing after hearing this, "If senior brother hears this, maybe he will feel some comfort."

Zhang Liang could only smile bitterly when he saw this, and then asked, "Speaking of Senior Brother, I have been busy in the past few days and have never seen him."

"I wonder how things are going lately?"

"Elder brother, you understand." Yan Lu replied, "His mood is rarely affected by external objects, let alone for a long time."

"Everything is normal for him now. He just asked me a few times about the situation of Ziming and Ziyu."

"Ziming Ziyu..." When Zhang Liang heard these two names, a smile flashed in the corner of his eyes, "Both of them are fine, but they will not return to Little Saint Xian Manor in a short period of time."

Zhang Liang emphasized the pronunciation of the word "short time" very strongly, and it is not difficult to tell that what he actually meant was a long period of time.

Yan Lu naturally understood what his junior brother meant, and couldn't help but ask, "What's going on with the two of them now?"

"What's the situation?" Zhang Liang's smile became even brighter and he replied cheerfully, "It's hard to say. The current situation between the two of them is something I never expected before."

"But for now, it seems that at least people are safe."

Yan Lu basically couldn't understand Zhang Liang's first sentence, but the meaning of the latter sentence was very clear.

This was enough for him to let go of his worries about the two teenagers.

Although he didn't know the specific situation, he was still willing to believe in his junior brother.

"People safe is good."

Zhang Liang smiled and said nothing.

It is true that nothing happened to the person, but it is estimated that only the three parties involved know whether it is OK or not.

Zhang Liang was really surprised when he first learned that Tianming and others had run up to the mirage.

This was not within the scope of his expectations. After all, he didn't know that White Tiger Zero was actually a winged tiger.

What’s more, I didn’t expect that these three little ones were so decisive in doing things. They dared to jump into the sea even when they saw a dead end.

However, after carefully understanding the situation on the mirage, Zhang Liang was not in a hurry to get the three children off the boat.

Not to mention that the attitude of the Yin Yang family members on the ship towards the intruder was very subtle. The most important thing was that Gu Xun would never let anything happen to the three of them.

When ancient people were searching for people in Songhai, mirages were undoubtedly his key observation targets.

He may not be able to understand everything that happened on the ship in detail, but the noise the three people made when they boarded the ship at Tianming was not small, and he would not fail to notice it.

………………

It was night, inside the temporary stronghold of the Mohists on the outskirts of Songhai City.

Master Ben and others gathered in a circle, with an oil lamp lit in the middle, and the flickering light of the fire shone on everyone's face.

Master Ban was the first to speak:

"There is news from the ovary."

"First of all, Tianming Shaoyu, Shi Lan and the others are safe at the moment, but they are just temporarily trapped in the mirage."

"According to what he learned, there won't be any problems in a short period of time... He did not suggest that we try to carry out rescue. It is too difficult."

Sledgehammer touched his head and shouted, "Is it safe for the three children to go to that ghost place in the mirage?"

"Are you sure Zhang Liang is not fooling us?"

Hearing this, Thief Zhi interjected, "Although I don't think it's reliable, judging from the information I got, the mirage was surprisingly peaceful, and there was no aggressive search for intruders."

"What are the people of the Yin Yang family thinking about?" Big Iron Hammer muttered in confusion, and then suddenly raised his voice and exclaimed, "Could it be that they have secretly captured Tian Ming and the others!?"

Gai Nie suddenly interjected, "I think you can trust Zhang Liang on this matter."

"Ah?" Big Iron Hammer was stunned and asked with wide eyes, "Why?"

After Gai Nie looked around, he explained in a deep voice:

"Leave aside the relationship between Tianming Shaoyu and Zhang Liang, at least that girl from Shushan - the little girl named Shi Lan, Zhang Liang will never let anything happen to her."

"So, he probably won't talk freely about this matter."

"Shi Lan?" Tuozhi raised his hair and asked in surprise, "Isn't she from Shushan? How come she is still related to Confucianism?"

"It's not related to Confucianism, but... other aspects." Gai Nie turned his gaze to Xue Nu, "Miss Xue Nu should understand this."

"Um?"

Gai Nie's words aroused greater doubts in everyone, and they all looked at the snow girl.

After Xue Nu hesitated for a moment, she asked Gunie:

"So...that girl is also the sword master?"

"It should be right." Gai Nie nodded.

After a conversation between the two, Master Ban and others all came to their senses.

The word "sword master" obviously corresponds to a sword.

As for the sword related to the snow girl, do we need to talk about it?

Of course it was the green light sword given to her by Gu Xun.

In this way, according to Gai Nie, it means that the Shushan girl Shi Lan also has a sword given to her by Gu Xun.
