The nightwalker dressed in black couldn't help but laugh silently when she heard her cautious and vigilant voice in the room.

Chu Qing couldn't imagine that the person outside the door would only answer her, "It's me!" For a while, she was also a little speechless, me? I know who you are?

Isn't this nonsense?

"Who are you?" She decided to break the casserole and ask to the end.

"Gongsun Ju!"

When Chu Qingruo heard this name, he couldn't help but be pleasantly surprised. This, isn't that the name of the little cousin? Could it be that the person outside the door is her brother-in-law with strong martial arts, Ye Yan, who is not in tune?

Hurriedly opened the door and saw that under the moonlight, there was a tall man dressed in black with his back to him.

"Ah...... Die young? She was a little unsure.

The man turned around, pulled down his scarf and showed a mouthful of small white teeth at her, and smiled innocently: "Cousin! ”

The person who came was Chu Qingruo's cousin, Gongsun Ju's father-in-law, Ye Yan!

After quickly pulling him into the room, bolting the door, and looking at the window to see that he didn't alarm others, Chu Qingruo asked him to sit down and asked him, "Why are you here?" Did Wenyuan ask you to come? ”

Ye Yan didn't answer her, just stared blankly at her belly that was about to give birth, and asked in surprise, "Cousin, are you about to give birth?" Am I going to be an uncle? ”

Chu Qingruo covered her mouth and chuckled: "Yes, Ah Ju is going to be an aunt, Donglin is an uncle, you are going to be an uncle!" ”

Ye Yan was a little at a loss for joy: "Yes, yes, uncle, uncle." ”

"Well, you haven't answered me yet? How did you end up here? ”

Ye Yan scratched his head and slowly told her what had happened to him since her disappearance.

That day, after Chu Qingruo was taken away, Fu Lingyun's old illness relapsed, and everyone was collecting medicinal materials for him everywhere to treat his illness. I tried hard, but I still lacked a few herbs.

So Song Xiuzhu asked Ye Yan to take the risk of sneaking into Damo to collect medicinal materials for Fu Lingyun.

Fu Lingyun and the others all knew that Ye Yan often disappeared inexplicably. Everyone just thought that this was due to his unobtrusive temperament, but it was not.

It was a secret he had never told anyone.

Everyone knows that he is a martial artist, unfathomable, and weird, but no one knows who he is learning from, and he has never mentioned it to others.

Because for him, it is not only an unforgettable blood feud, but also the biggest stain and shame in Master's life.

So, he didn't want to mention it, and he didn't want others to know.

He would rather others guess who his master is forever, rather than let others know about his master, and finally end up with such a tragic ending.

Therefore, as long as he goes out on a mission, he will secretly search for this murderer of his master.

It's just a pity that in the vast sea of people, he has been looking for so many years, and he has stepped on almost every inch of land, but he has not found this enemy.

He had also guessed more than once that perhaps the person who killed his master might not be someone from the Great Mo Kingdom. It is also very likely to be from Yanguo or Sangyun.

Because the last place where Master appeared was the Bison Valley in Antang. It is the junction of the three countries. This time, it was also because he was looking for medicinal materials for Fu Lingyun, since he came to the country of Mexico, he would like to find a clue here to find the enemy.

After Ye Yan infiltrated Damo, while looking for medicinal materials, he was looking for the enemy he had been looking for for many years, but he was still nowhere to be found.

Medicinal herbs, when it comes to Damo, it is easy to find.

After asking someone to take away the medicinal materials that Song Xiuzhu was urging urgently, he happily inquired about the whereabouts of the enemy, but in Huyang Town, he accidentally found the secret mark that Chu Qingruo left in the corner of the inn, and hurriedly repaired a book and sent it to Fu Lingyun and the others who were anxious.

Later, after receiving a letter from him, asking him to help inquire about Chu Qingruo's more exact whereabouts, Ye Yan traced all the way to Shengjing and found that she was in the mansion of Baili Sheng, the prince of the Mo Kingdom.

As a brother, he knew that if Fu Lingyun knew his wife's whereabouts, he would definitely take the risk to come to the rescue. Ye Yan originally planned to wait quietly for their arrival in Shengjing, so that he could make a contribution to Chu Qingruo for them.

Unexpectedly, while he was waiting, he passed by an antique shop one day and found that this store was selling a saber made of good materials! And this knife turned out to be exactly the same as the one that Master used back then.

After careful identification, Ye Yan can say with great certainty that it is his master's saber!

But how did Master's saber end up in the antique shop?

So he followed the path of this knife and traced it all the way to the Ninth Prince's Mansion. All the evidence he had collected in his hands proved that the murderer of his master was in the mansion of Baili Sheng, the ninth son!

It's just that before he could take action, the Ninth Prince's Mansion became heavily guarded because he had escaped from the two Great Yan Kingdoms. If you want to visit the Shizi Mansion at night, it is already impossible.

Moreover, Ye Yan knew that one of the two Da Yan who had escaped must be Fu Lingyun. So he secretly found them and secretly sent them all the way back to Dayan safely. Then he himself turned back again.

First, it was to continue to track down the murderer of his master, and secondly, he was also worried that Chu Qingruo was alone as a woman after all, and it was always uneasy to have no one around to protect him.

But the Shizifu is now as tightly guarded as an iron bucket, how can he blend in and protect her closely?

Fortunately, there is no end to it.

The owner of the antique shop where his master's saber was found that day, seeing that he loved it and knew how to use it, suggested that he buy it.

Ye Yan played a scoundrel, saying that he had no money, and asked the boss to point out a clear way to make money. The boss was also righteous, and within a few days, he took him to the Ninth Prince's Mansion and recommended him to a small boss.

The little boss also had a personal relationship with this boss, and when he heard that he recommended him, he was also happy, so he accepted him without saying a word, and advanced a year's salary, handed it over to the owner of the antique shop, and paid the money for the knife.

In this way, Ye Yan held his master's knife and entered the Shizi Mansion, staying for half a year.

After entering the mansion, when he learned that Chu Qingruo was arranged in Minghua Palace, the master of this Shizi Mansion, Baili Sheng's dormitory, he didn't think of a way to sneak into Minghua Palace and take the opportunity to rescue her.

It's just that she has such a big belly, and she can't take her out, and second, the enemy who killed the teacher hasn't been found yet, if she takes Chu Qingruo away at this moment, if she wants to come in again to track down the enemy's clues in the future, I'm afraid it will be impossible.

In this regard, he is also at a loss and in a dilemma.

Moreover, now that Chu Qingruo is under house arrest in Minghua Palace, the security there is the strictest in the entire Shizi Mansion, and if he is not summoned at ordinary times, no one can get close to half a step.

Ye Yan, who wanted to get close to Chu Qingruo and protect her closely, had no good solution for a while. Until a few days ago, the leader came to ask if anyone could use the art of disguise.

Only then did he remember that he still had in his arms the two human skin masks he asked for from him when he was idle in the Antang camp and pestered Song Xiuzhu to teach him the transfiguration technique.

He then volunteered to take on the task, and things turned out to be what they were.

After listening to him, Chu Qingruo breathed a long sigh of relief, her brother Wenyuan finally went back safely, now her father-in-law and mother-in-law must be very happy, right?

It's good, she's content, and now she doesn't want to do anything, she just wants to give birth to the child safely, and then look for an opportunity to take the child away from Damo and go home. Now that Ah Yan is by her side, she doesn't have to worry about it anymore.

After Ye Yan finished speaking, he showed unprecedented seriousness, and said to him in a somewhat pleading tone: "Cousin, I hope that after you go back, you won't mention the matter of my master to anyone!" ”

Chu Qingruo saw that his eyes were red when he said this, and he couldn't help but nod distressedly: "Ah Yan, you can rest assured, I will never say it to others, not even Wen Yuan." ”

Ye Yan arched his hand to her: "Thank you!" He stopped talking, grabbed the saber at his waist with one hand, and stared blankly at the window. In his mind, he couldn't help but think of the bits and pieces of his life in Lianyu Town when he was a child.

At that time, Lianyu Town was still a small town in Damo, and his master should be regarded as a person born in a county near the sea in the Great Yan Country.

At the age of nine, his mother lost his father at a young age, and he wandered all the way to Lianyu Town from his hometown where he could no longer remember.

One day, while begging for food on the street, he was bullied and beaten by a group of naughty children. The boys, all several years older than him, surrounded him with three or four men, punching and kicking him. And he tightly guarded the two steamed buns that he had just begged in his hands and wanted to honor his mother, let them beat them, and did not resist.

It wasn't until a little fat man who beat him together snatched two steamed buns from his hand that they were like treasures, threw them on the ground fiercely, and trampled them with his feet, Ye Yan couldn't hold back anymore.

He jumped up, picked up the long stool on a vendor selling pasta on the side of the street, and smashed it hard at the naughty children.

After being hungry for several days, he finally ran out of strength and fainted on the street from exhaustion.

When he woke up the next time, he saw himself in a simple room, and the dim light reflected a tall, warm back.

That person was his future master, Zhao Yinchu.

Zhao Yinchu, who was about thirty-five or sixteen years old at that time, had dark skin, a Chinese face, big eyes, and a strong and tall body, like a majestic hill, which made people daunting.

"Are you awake?" Zhao Yinchu's majestic and deep voice sounded in Ye Yan's ears.
