Since Mao An had already said so, Xiao Nansheng didn't continue to ask.

Then he suddenly said, "That Master Tao has already been recruited."

This shopkeeper Hao is the messenger in charge of his contact with the people in Kyoto.

From this, it can be seen that the person is very cautious.

In this way, even if something really happens to Lord Tao one day, no one will be implicated. ”

Mao An nodded, pondered for a moment, and then said, "So this shopkeeper Hao is a very key person. ”

Xiao Nansheng nodded, and at this time, Xiao Nansheng had already opened the door with a blade.

The two walked in slowly, and the room was silent, as if there was not even a sound of breathing.

Xiao Nansheng slowly approached the bedside, still without any sound.

Shopkeeper Hao was lying with his back to him, just when his hand inadvertently touched the back of Shopkeeper Hao.

Xiao Nansheng couldn't calm down anymore, and saw that he immediately turned over the body of the shopkeeper Hao.

I found that he had a long knife stuck in his chest.

Taking advantage of the lightning and thunder outside the window, he vaguely saw the round eyes of the shopkeeper Hao, full of surprise and fear.

Mao An saw that Xiao Nansheng suddenly didn't move, and he also came over.

Then he whispered: "It seems that we are late, and someone has taken the lead." ”

Xiao Nansheng was stunned, suddenly turned around and ran out of Hao's shopkeeper's room, and came to the room of the shopkeeper next to him.

only to find out that even the shopkeeper was dead.

Immediately afterward, they found out that the people on the third floor of the entire inn were all dead.

The guests on the second floor slept as heavy as pigs.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier outside, but the thunder was gone.

Xiao Nansheng and Mao An saw that they had lost the opportunity and could only leave in a hurry.

They braved the heavy rain to escape to a ruined temple outside the town.

Fortunately, in ancient times, it seemed that there were always many broken temples, and they could finally have a temporary place to live at any time.

At this time, after tossing for most of the night, the sky was almost dawn.

The rain is getting lighter and lighter, and Xiao Nansheng looked at Mao An at this time.

Then he asked, "Master, shouldn't you be in prison...... Oh, no.

Aren't you supposed to be in a prison cell? How did it end up in a tavern? ”

Mao An glanced at Xiao Nansheng, and there was a little more guilt in his eyes.

After pondering for a moment, he suddenly said, "Nan Sheng, it's because the teacher is wrong.

What did you say...... Later, I thought about it and felt that it made sense.

Many times, we also need to make some changes with time and environment. ”

Suddenly hearing Mao An say this, Xiao Nansheng suddenly felt a little unaccustomed.

After a long time, he said, "Master, you say this...... Speech......

I'm a little uncomfortable......"

The two looked at each other, and finally they both laughed at the same time.

At this time, Mao An's face suddenly sank, and then he suddenly said: "Shopkeeper Hao is dead."

Nan Sheng, it seems that we are afraid that we will really get nothing when we come out this time. ”

"And Jing Chi is also dead, how should we explain to the fifth uncle when we go back?"

Xiao Nansheng stared at the courtyard outside the door that was gradually brightening up and muttered.

In the end, this shopkeeper Hao is obviously the most important hub in the things they want to investigate.

But this hub has now been broken.

Xiao Nansheng and Mao An stayed in the town for another two days.

Then I found that there was really nothing superfluous to check later.

Only then did he get up and return to the imperial capital and return to Zhang Meng's garden.

After they had told them everything.

Of course, this also includes the killing of Jing Chi's entire family.

Wubo looked calm, and there were no unnecessary mood swings on his face.

When he found that Xiao Nansheng was staring at him, he smiled and said, "Young master, don't worry about me.

People always die, and I have seen too many life and death partings in this imperial capital city over the years.

This heart is no longer as soft and active as it used to be. ”

Listening to Wubo's words, Xiao Nansheng suddenly felt a sense of desolation.

What kind of experience can make an old man with gray temples have such a calm heart?

This peace of mind has transcended even life and death.

At this time, Zhang Meng suddenly moved the wheelchair lightly and turned it repeatedly in the room.

After a long time, he frowned and said, "You guys go to Jingchi's house with your front feet."

Maybe someone has already hurried to Jing Chi's house faster than you.

This means that ...... Ming"

"Does it mean that the young master has been exposed?"

The fifth uncle immediately answered.

"That's right, the young master must have been exposed.

First of all, the young master entered the prince's mansion and almost died.

That prince is not to be afraid, but Shanwei is a little smart.

But the Tuoba Yu beside him should definitely not be underestimated.

The young master set fire to the entire prince's mansion, and Tuoba Yu will definitely investigate it thoroughly.

The fact that the young master is not dead must not be hidden from him.

Maybe...... We're not safe here anymore. ”

Zhang Meng's speculation is not unreasonable, in fact, he still missed a little.

The strong man of the dog fighting ring on the border is actually a person from Tuoba Yu.

The purpose of his installation of Zhuang Ye to make waves is not to be said for the time being.

On a series of things that Xiao Nansheng and Mao An did on the border.

The strong man who escaped will definitely flee back to Kyoto, and the names Xiao Nansheng and Mao An will be put together at that time.

With Tuoba Yu's thoughtful and suspicious nature, I'm afraid I've been suspicious for a long time.

But at this moment, Xiao Nansheng suddenly had a little admiration for that Tuoba Yu.

The whole thing can be said to be a coincidence and a calculation.

But he counted almost every move he and Mao An might make.

In this way, it is always possible to shoot them one step ahead of them and cut off all the clues.

With such a seven-trick exquisite mind, I'm afraid even Xiao Nansheng can't reach it, right?

At this time, Xiao Nansheng suddenly said: "Since the clues are all broken."

I don't think I'll be able to find out anything in Kyoto in the future.

After all, my master and I have been exposed. ”

Zhang Meng nodded, and at this time, the fifth uncle suddenly said: "I don't think it's as good as this, how about the young master and Master Mao An go out first to avoid the limelight?"

I just received news yesterday that Qiang Di is adjusting the army, and it seems that it is about to move on our Great Zhou border!

If this is the case, the imperial court will inevitably send troops to the battle.

At that time, the two of you can go to the army, if my expectation is correct.

The one who led the troops on this expedition must be Qian Xun.

Because Qian Xun also fought with Qiang Di in the first few years, and won the battle.

Tuoba Yu knows you, but Qian Xun may not be, and he is a reckless man.

I don't think it will be difficult for you to approach him and figure out something.

Now it seems that if you want to find out the ins and outs of everything back then, it is the safest thing to start with him. ”
