Jiang Lingxi walked out of the back kitchen with soy milk, Huang Zicheng and Yun Ze also finished washing, changed their clothes, and sat next to and opposite Zhu Yunwen respectively, waiting for dinner.

Yun Ze was dressed in white as usual, and his long half-dried hair was casually draped. He didn't sit straight like Zhu Yunwen, but put his two forearms on the table, his upper body bowed forward slightly, and the moderate relaxation made him exude a kind of lazy, how to say, similar to a fairy.

Jiang Lingxi couldn't help but take a second look, and found that his appearance was actually not lower than Zhu Yunwen.

sat down next to him, put down the soy milk, touched his arm with a homemade straw, and raised his eyebrows slightly teasingly, "Yun Xian'er, this is all at the border of Yizhou, you are tired to pinch your fingers, can we really go smoothly this time, and fight against Pixi without blood?" ”

Yun Xian'er's nickname comes from the fact that in order to pass the time along the way, the four of them often get together to make a game, Jiang Lingxi found that whether it is mahjong, cards or dice, no matter what kind of play, as long as he tells him the rules, it is easy for people to play is nine wins out of ten, and the remaining one time does not rule out the suspicion of deliberately releasing water.

In terms of academic qualifications, Huang Zicheng is considered to be the elite of their contemporaries, right? How conceited he is about his own brain, compared to him, he immediately turned into a bowl of tofu flowers, and was even crushed by Yun Ze to the point of doubting his life.

Later, Jiang Lingxi thought about it, Bai Zheng once mentioned to her, Yun Ze was born in a family of divination, so he should have some kind of talent in this area, this kind of innate advantage does not mean that you can catch up with it casually with how much higher education you have. Huang Zicheng also reluctantly accepted this setting, so he did not continue to be decadent.

Yun Ze's eyelids slowly rolled down to Jiang Lingxi's side, with a hint of playfulness in his eyes, "Didn't they tell you when you came?" ”

"Of course, they are full of self-confidence, especially Huang ......"

Jiang Lingxi thought at first that the "they" in Yun Ze's mouth were referring to Zhu Yunwen and Huang Zicheng, but halfway through speaking, he found that his eyes didn't fall on the two of them for even a moment, and even shook his head very slightly. I realized that this "they" probably meant something else, but for a moment I couldn't think of anyone else who could tell her about it.

Yun Ze saw her doubts, and straightened up with his hands behind his head, looking his usual lazy look. "Forget it, my mission is just to make sure you're safe."

After finishing speaking, he drank tea by himself, and had no intention of continuing the topic at all.

Jiang Lingxi was so angry that even Zhu Yunwen couldn't stand it, and frowned: "You person, why bother talking about half of people's appetite." ”

Yun Ze raised his eyes and glanced over, and smiled with some bitterness that others couldn't understand, "It's not interesting to know too much, wouldn't it be nice to leave a little expectation for the unknown." ”

Jiang Lingxi pondered for a moment and pursed his lips disapprovingly. Pointing a finger at Huang Zicheng on the other side, he shook his head with emotion: "That's not what he said, you see, he would have known that he would fall into this fate one day, and he would definitely not have been so active in agitating the cutting clan next to him." ”

“……”

Huang Zicheng, who had been watching in the clouds and fog, suddenly put on a face: "Lao Tzu was shot while lying so far away?" With a particularly sad expression, he threw the teacup on the table, "Get out!" ”

*

The next day, at dusk.

A small sedan chair carried by two people fell inconspicuously outside the back door of the inn, and the prefect who was not wearing official clothes opened the curtain and walked out, went in very low-key to communicate with the shopkeeper and went upstairs, and went to the third room to the west of the stairs and knocked on the door carefully.

It was Jiang Lingxi who opened the door, and Yun Ze, Zhu Yunwen and Huang Zicheng were all behind him.

After the prefect entered the house, with a kind of excitement of "I can hope that the savior is coming", he couldn't help but be a little suspicious, "Look, you are all sent by the emperor to suppress the bandits, you should have stayed at the county government openly, and the lower officials treated each other as guests. ”

Huang Zicheng patted him on the shoulder with a deep face, "We naturally have our purpose in arranging this, you just need to reply to us in detail with the questions listed in the previous letter." ”

At this time, the prefect also calmed down from the initial excitement, and saw that these people were all very raw, and they had not taken a photo when they returned to Beijing to report on their work, and except for Huang Zicheng, the other three were young people who didn't seem to have much experience, and they were not very trustworthy, so they inevitably muttered in their hearts: Is this Qincha really reliable?

It's just that he thinks so in his heart, but it's not easy to reveal it on his face, since Huang Zicheng opened his mouth, he reported what he knew to the four of them...... It should be three to be exact, because Yun Ze maintained a kind of indifferent dissociation from beginning to end, crooked in the chair to let go of various things.

When it came, the prefect was still a little worried about their safety, and emphasized that it was almost the end of the year, not only to prevent pirates from coming ashore to grab things, but even the robbers on land were also rampant.

Jiang Lingxi blindly told him to feel at ease, there was such an elite master as Yun Ze to protect him closely, and more than a dozen top masters were arranged in the "caravan", among which the little emperor specially borrowed two female shadow guards from the Empress Dowager have been in the same room with Jiang Lingxi, Zhu Yunwen and Huang Zicheng also arranged two internal guards in the house, and another 4,000 army troops were stationed nearby, and there were really 6,000 navy, she didn't believe that any robber was so short-sighted, put soft persimmons and didn't pinch, and crashed into an aircraft carrier with a super luxurious configuration like them.

After sending off the prefect, everyone was a little tired from running all the way, so they went back to the house to rest after a brief dinner.

In the middle of the night, Jiang Lingxi was woken up by the female shadow guard in the same room in a daze, and then heard the sound of weapons colliding outside, mixed with some frightened shouts: "Ah——, there are thieves!" It's a robber! ”

Behind it seemed to be a series of scoldings from the Ouchi masters: "Go back!" Let's all go back to the house! Close the doors and windows and don't run around! ”

The chaos lasted for about a quarter of an hour, and then it slowly quieted down outside, and the two female shadow guards leaned on the door and listened for a while, and only opened it after confirming that it was safe.

Jiang Lingxi put on some clothes and followed, and saw four black-clothed people lying on their backs outside the door, one of the shadow guards sniffed one by one, turned around and shook his head at Jiang Lingxi.

Jiang Lingxi was a little sick to his stomach by the bloody smell that permeated the surroundings, and Huang Zicheng next door walked out, and after looking around, he couldn't help but sigh: Hey, there are really people who don't have long eyes!

Zhu Yunwen then came out of the other room, shook his head and sighed: "The people are like this, and the country is unfortunate. ”

Yun Ze arranged for some guards to dispose of the corpse, and the remaining few looked around to see if there were any fish that had slipped through the net, and then turned back to confirm with Jiang Lingxi and the others: "Are you all right?" ”

All three said they were safe.

As he was talking, he heard a bang behind him, and something seemed to roll into the room.

Yun Ze identified it and was the first to rush into Huang Zicheng's house.

Several people hurriedly followed, and couldn't help but be taken aback by the scene that caught their eyes. I saw that the two windows at the back of the room seemed to have been forcibly smashed open from the outside, and one of them was hanging down listlessly, barely connecting a little window frame. There was a man lying on the ground, and it was obvious that his clothes were the same as those just now.

After confirming that the person had been hung up, Huang Zicheng sighed and hurriedly called someone to come over to dispose of the body. Two guards walked up to this person, one of them just squatted down, and his eyes inadvertently fell on this person's heart, he was stunned for a moment, then leaned over to take a closer look, and muttered "strange".

Yun Ze immediately looked over vigilantly, "What's wrong?" ”

The guard tore off a piece of cloth from the man in black's clothes, wrapped it in his hand, probed into his heart, pinched something and pulled it out, and then presented it to Yun Ze, and said with some doubts: "It doesn't seem to be ours." ”

Driven by curiosity, Jiang Lingxi and the three of them invariably leaned over and hugged each other.

Afterwards, Zhu Yunwen and Huang Zicheng retracted their gaze with some interest: it was just an ordinary hidden weapon.

Only Jiang Lingxi's eyelids trembled subconsciously: This thing, where do you seem to have seen it?
