- Mo Ye originally planned to use Tao Yin's words, and then take the opportunity to hit him a few words, who told him to be so difficult when he was in Peach Village! Now it's on its own turf, huh......

However, seeing Tao Yin's angry appearance, she suddenly changed her mind again.

Now Tao Yin is a guest, she sits in the position of the master's house, and the friendship of the landlord does not come from this. However, the root cause that can make her ignore her previous suspicions is that she still doesn't know when it started, maybe when she returned to Kyoto and returned home, or maybe when Tao Yin appeared in time and saved her from her urgent need, she was already angry.

……

……

After arranging the trivial matters at hand, when Mo Ye came to Wu Shu's residence, he was standing on a wooden ladder to repair the broken corner of the eaves.

When Mo Ye raised her face and looked at his face from the angle of Wu Shu's jaw, she found that Wu Shu was also slightly bowing her head, and her gaze fell from her forehead.

Wu Shu hesitated for a moment, and then said slowly: "Maybe this year is the last time I go to sea." With that, he gently pushed Mo Ye away.

Mo Ye was also about to consciously move away from Wu Shu's body, she took a few steps backwards and continued to walk backwards towards Wu Shu as she did just now.

She felt that Wu Shu's voice was rarely softer when she spoke just now, which should have been a discovery that she felt novel and happy about, but when she heard what he said clearly, she couldn't help but look slightly gloomy, and naturally thought of something bad.

"I mean, after this year, I might listen to you and stop going." Seeing the gloom in Mo Ye's eyes, Wu Shu added. At the same time, there seemed to be a smile floating in his eyes.

Mo Ye perked up and said with a smile: "You have to listen to me about this!" ”

Wu Shu didn't pay attention to her words, and his tone became flat again, but he just said: "Come to me, if you fall again, I won't pull you." ”

Mo Ye didn't squeak, his body was deviant, and he moved to Wu Shu's side and walked side by side with him.

Her eyes drooped slightly, and she bit her lower lip. Thinking that I almost fell on my back just now. In the end, she bumped into Wu Shu's arms, and she couldn't help but feel a ripple in her heart, but she quickly smoothed it out by herself. She felt that the strange feeling of being a flash in the pan in her heart was a bit nonsense.

Luckily, it just felt like it was floating by chance. Leave no trace. She will soon fade into oblivion.

Settle your mind. Mo Ye only began to think about Wu Shu coming to her today. It's not because she loves to play too much, so she didn't think about it until now, but because she just met Wu Shu before. It's a bit too much, so I'll put down business for the time being.

During this period, Wu Shu did not take the initiative to mention this matter.

Seeing that he had already walked to the city gate and began to line up with the crowd to enter the city, Mo Yecai couldn't help but tug at the corner of Wu Shu's sleeve and asked softly: "Uncle, you haven't told me yet, what are you going there to find me for today?" ”

"Take you to a place and you'll know when you get there." Wu Shu glanced sideways at Mo Ye, although he was selling off the guanzi when he spoke, but in his tone, there was no hint of joking.

So Mo Ye didn't play tricks with him, waited patiently, and began to adjust his mentality. She faintly felt that the place where Wu Shu was going to take her might not be very simple.

It should be somewhere in the inner city, what will it be?

After passing through the city check, Wu Shu took Mo Ye through a few streets quickly, and finally stopped behind a high courtyard wall.

The courtyard wall in front of me is much higher than the general residential wall, although it is an auxiliary building secondary to the house wall, but I see that its wall brick patchwork pattern is rigorous and thorough, vaguely revealing a solemn and heavy architectural temperament, without the slightest feeling of random patchwork.

If it weren't for the open outer part of this courtyard wall, the neighboring residential courtyards, and the screams of ghosts crying wolves from inside the high walls, Mo Ye would almost have thought that Wu Shu had taken her to the back of the Kyoto Prefecture prison.

- It's not like he didn't take her to do this kind of thing.

After Wu Shu stopped, his eyes swept around the periphery of the high wall, and then his gaze returned to Mo Ye, and said in a suppressed voice: "I know that I was in the suburbs before, why did I suddenly plot against you?" ”

Mo Ye didn't think much about it for long, and quickly shook his head.

She felt that the atmosphere of the place was a little tense, and it seemed that it was not suitable to stay longer, so she didn't waste time and brains when she couldn't think through the problem for a while, and only considered not delaying the time for the two of them to stop here as much as possible.

Wu Shu didn't sell it anymore, and immediately said again: "I counted you as a pass for the test just now, so I can bring you here." But when we're in a little bit, you'll still have to pay attention. ”

Mo Ye didn't speak, just nodded with a serious and cautious expression. In fact, she was already adjusting her mind before she even got here.

At this time, when Wu Shu said this, Mo Ye could roughly understand in his heart that Wu Shu was going to take her over the wall again.

It's just that I don't know why Wu Shu chose this mansion. What the hell is this place? Before Wu Shu climbed over the wall this time, her expression and attitude were more serious and solemn than when she took her to the prison.

When she and Wu Shu crossed their arms and interlocked their shoulders, borrowed the traction projected by the small box in Wu Shu's hand, and crossed the high wall at a height that absolutely exceeded the upper limit of human vertical jumping, the scene in the mansion surrounded and protected by the high wall came into view, Mo Ye seemed to understand in an instant, and his heart suddenly panicked.

"Don't panic." Feeling Mo Ye's hand on his shoulder grip for a while, Wu Shu suddenly whispered quickly, "I have found a good place to stay, it is very hidden." ”

When Mo Ye heard this, he immediately strengthened his figure.

Subsequently, the two landed on a small tower.

It's a lighthouse and it's a watchtower. The area on the tower is very small, allowing two people to settle down, and the position seems a little reluctant. Underneath the stone slab on which Mo Ye stepped was a lamp, which was extinguished during the day and only lit at night.

And when night falls, the light on the small tower can be cast on half of the area of the mansion under the tower. The sentinel standing on the lighthouse, as long as the eyesight arm is far enough, the area where the bow and arrow in his hand can pierce the area. It should also be able to be distributed to half of the house. However, if the people below the lighthouse want to aim at the sentries on the lighthouse, most of them are easily forced by the lights to be blinded and lose their agility, so that the sentries on the lighthouse have more time to take precautions.

At the top of this lighthouse, it is one of the two excellent vantage points of this mansion.

But this heavily defended place was not guarded by sentinels at this time.

Mo Ye quickly realized the abnormality in the current situation in front of her, and her thinking direction was generally not wrong. This lighthouse will indeed have sentinels standing guard during the day, and the unmanned state at this time is only because Wu Shu has "dotted" it in advance.

Wu Shu shrunk at the top of the tower and squatted for a moment. Then he suddenly raised his arm. The clenched fist in one direction stretched out his index finger and hooked it, and quickly retracted it.

This kind of time password, Wu Shu also taught Mo Ye. The fist is for one hour, and the palm is for half an hour. A finger to the sky is a quarter of an hour. Wu Shu should have borrowed the lighthouse from the helpers he had "dotted" in this mansion for a quarter of an hour. He was just doing a double confirmation.

Confirmed. Wu Shu retracted and glanced at his surroundings.

The shape of the empty space above the lighthouse is close to a shrunken castle tower. And the whole lighthouse is like a basket held up by a juggler with a smooth wooden pestle, and it is not easy for ordinary people to climb it. And those who are above, squatting in the square groove at the top of the tower, can borrow the jagged stone bricks that resemble battlements on the edge, not only to cover themselves, but also not to hinder their vision to expand and observe the environment below.

When Wu Shu cast his gaze from afar and glanced around, Mo Ye also silently ran the "Qianzhao Sutra" exercises in his body.

Although she had only been practicing this exercise for nearly three years, and the results she had achieved had only accumulated some foundations, she still had to do her best to keep the sound of her breathing to a minimum, and although Wu Shu took the initiative to bring her here, she still didn't want to cause him any trouble.

Because this mansion is the headquarters of the Kyoto garrison.

The Commander-in-Chief is in charge of the military power on the outskirts of Kyoto, so he is sometimes called the Commander-in-Chief by his subordinates. During the extraordinary period, even the officers and soldiers of Kyoto Prefecture, who belonged to the Inner City Inspection Army, had to be transferred to a subordinate nature, participating in the garrison to be deployed, and working together on the defense of the city. At that time, the power of the Kyoto Prefecture Yin to control the army will be hollowed out by the commander-in-chief, and he will be relegated to a purely civilian rank such as a staff officer.

Even at that time, half of the Imperial Forest Army in the Forbidden Palace, and the emperor's close guards, could be deployed by it.

Every capital city with a complete system at or above the county level in Nanzhao will have a garrison army, and all of them will be garrisoned and commanded, but it is unique that the autocracy and privilege can reach the height of the commander of the Kyoto garrison.

This is all because of the emperor's trust in the commander.

At the beginning of the "entrepreneurship", the love forged by time and life and death between the two of them is unparalleled. For this reward, even the royal family's descendant army killed all the way from the north to the south has no opinion, who can and dare to have an opinion?

The emperor almost didn't give the commander a marquis, but he didn't want the commander.

Although the grocery store has a clear identity, in the inherent composition of the Kyoto business district, it already has a certain store seniority, there is no need to hide its identity, and the source of customers is stable, but after three years of contact with it, Mo Ye has roughly figured out the true "role" of this grocery store.

After seeing Wu Shu nodded, Mo Ye couldn't help but say again: "This kind of life is no different from when you didn't retire?" ”

"Yes." Wu Shu said calmly, "You don't need to go around, at most you can scrutinize and count some of the information that has been made." ”

Mo Ye pondered Wu Shu's words carefully, and gradually showed a hint of joy on his face, and asked, "You don't have to go to sea again?" ”

The Commander has not yet married, and he has no collateral relatives, and he is too lazy to take care of the rewarded land, and he has no other hobbies except for occasional drinking. His perseverance, will, and belief are tougher than those of an ascetic, but his desires are simpler than that of an idiot: to defend Kyoto and protect the emperor's brother!

He is like a tiger skin on the back of the emperor's seat, like the jasper wrench on the circle of the emperor's thumb, and like the flying dragon dagger that the emperor pulls out. His loyalty to the emperor's brother was simple and direct, and he never thought of leaving.

He is obsessed with exploring the mysteries of martial arts, so he controls his desires and gives up many of his habitual hobbies as a human being.

He is obsessed with the friendship between him and his brother-in-law. In his childhood, he often survived in the fight of wild beasts, and when he gained the civilization and emotions that belonged to him, he would cherish it extraordinarily. Wang Chi is the first friend and brother he gained when he returned to the human living environment, and the depth of this feeling in his heart is like a man's virgin heart, which can be remembered for a lifetime.

He's stupid, but he's not stupid. Stupidity is the result of his control of his mind, and his stupidity is only the product of his obsession.

Sitting in the position of commander, the tens of thousands of soldiers stationed in two places near and far in the garrison, must be loose and flexible, and make the defense of Kyoto airtight, but it must not affect the daily frequent pedestrian movement in and out of the city in this second largest commercial capital in the country, and those who can do this job can live a life that is not only superficially rich, favored, and pompous, and the person who sits in this position has to consume no less than any of the six supreme commanders every day.

Li Gai doesn't want to make himself so hard every day, and there are often a lot of troubles, can't be like cutting people with a knife, everything is done, and he must take his time to minimize the damage to the society and people's livelihood.

Everything is for the sake of the dynasty's strong plan, and in his opinion, the belief that supports him to continue to work every day is actually only for the emperor's brother.

If you can only be the shadow guard of your brother-in-law like before, how simple should life be?

It's just that he must have another way to expose himself, and he can't continue to be invisible, so he can't be a shadow guard. And the only way to leave him is to take up an official position on the surface.

Even if he can escape his well-intentioned design a few years ago, it is estimated that he will not be able to escape the first few decades, he has so many strategists, but he only has one brain.

Every morning, a thick stack of official books is piled on the desk. They come from the 12 castle gates in and around Kyoto, and also include a record of events after a one-night tour of the four castles. This is only a day's work, to review the first batch of official documents related to the security and order of the whole city.

Even if the war has stopped and the world is peaceful, as a professional soldier who has been honed from more than ten years of war, he will not relax his military vigilance just because he has lived in a stable situation for several years.

Although the attack is defended, for the work of defending the city and maintaining order in the inner city, the commander is in accordance with the steps of advancing in batches. Morning, noon, and evening in batches, and the three-hour document shelving time is already the limit of his "delay".

If he piles up all the official documents of the day until the afternoon to check them, he thinks that this is likely to miss some key business opportunities-
