"By the way, did you find anything in that cult's incense hall?" Ye Guan suddenly remembered that there was still a group of people who had gone to search the cult incense hall.

"Your Excellency......" The official in charge of the search stopped talking.

"Say whatever you want." Ye Guan thought that there was also some useful news in the soup.

"My lord, the people in that incense hall went to the empty building, and the lowly officials did not find any useful information, but they found a letter on the table of the eight immortals in the living room." As soon as the official finished speaking, he handed the letter he had found from the White Lotus Sect to Ye Guan.

It is said to be an epistle, but it is actually a piece of paper with a few words written on it. There are not many words on it, only a few words are written.

"Thank you Lord Ye for your advice, you will be rewarded in the future."

Looking at the letter in his hand, Ye Guan sneered, and then tore it to pieces.

"Challenge the book? I followed! ”

The snow is too late in spring, so it wears the garden trees to make flying flowers.

The old year finally passed, and on the first day of the new year of the seventeenth year of Hongji, the heavy snow fluttered down the sky, covering the layers of mountains, and adding more joy to the new year.

This is the first New Year that Ye Guan has spent since he came to the Ming Dynasty.

At the beginning, he was just a master in small Huating County, and he was very excited. Now he is in the Jinyi Guard, a high and powerful position, and is gradually approaching the ruling center of this era, and gradually gaining a foothold in this Brilliant Heavenly Empire.

It is said that life is like a play, if there are no people of all kinds and strange things, it is really like the world in the Buddhist scriptures or doctrines, thinking about it, in fact, how boring and boring life should be.

If you are poor, you will be good alone, and if you are good, you will help the world. Whether you want to or not, in fact, when you get to this position, it is often just an inadvertent action, which may change the lives of many people.

Just like those refugees outside the city, if it weren't for the conflict between Ye Guan and Zhu Qinglin and the prefect of Baoding, maybe many things would not have happened, maybe these people are still on the way to escape.

It was also because of the arrival of Ye Guan that there was a big earthquake in the officialdom of Baoding, relying on the half of the paper in Qiu Chuchang's mansion, Wang Jing Shun Teng found out a total of more than 20 officials, large and small, some of whom also participated in the activities of the White Lotus Sect. Among them, there was also Lu Hua, the envoy of Beizhili, who was cut to the people.

The earthquake in Baoding officialdom made the officials of Baoding Mansion hate Ye Guan and were afraid, and some of the officials who had not been found out told Amitabha Buddha in front of the incense hall every night to quickly take Ye Guan to the West Heaven Elysium.

……………………

Just when Ye Guan was returning to the city, in a teahouse on Baoding Mansion Street, a pair of cold eyes stared fiercely at Ye Guan who was laughing with Zhu Qinglin, those eyes were like the eyes of a poisonous snake, as if they were ready to burst out at any time to choose someone to devour.

"Smack." A teacup was slammed to the ground, and a man in his early twenties stared fiercely at the backs of Ye Guan and Zhu Qinglin, who were gradually moving away, and the corners of his mouth gradually condensed a hideous smile.

"Not only did he ruin my good deeds again and again, but he also dared to rob me of women. Boy, I still take care of your identity as a Jinyiwei in the capital, and when you leave the capital, you're not bullshit! Chen San! The young man called.

"Yes." A man with bulging temples, wearing only a single coat in the winter, and exuding heat all over his body, replied.

"Find a chance to do it for me! Send the heads over, and I'll be their greeting to their master! The man squinted.

"What about the woman?" Chen San asked.

"If she loses a hair, I'll bury your whole family!"

………………

"Qing'er, what kind of knife technique did you use when you picked up that villain with a knife a few days ago?" Riding on the horse, Ye Guan suddenly asked Zhu Qinglin, who had been smiling every day since he left the capital.

"It's just a simple ** knife technique, what are you asking for?" Zhu Qinglin replied while humming an unknown song.

"I want to learn some self-defense, so as not to be pointed at with a sword like last time, but I can only wait for death. If you learn a trick or two to defend yourself, you may be able to dodge it if you react faster. You can't always be there to protect me, can you? Ye Guan recalled the gangster's moves, and his mood at that time was a cold sweat. If it weren't for Zhu Qinglin's daring to come fast at that time, maybe he would have been in a different place a long time ago.

"I, you!" Zhu Qinglin heard Ye Guan's unintentional words, but suddenly became angry. This idiot, I'm a girl's house, and I can't help but come to walk with you in the Guogong Mansion, don't you know my intentions? Why can't I be around to protect you, I've been here for so long, have you ever given me a little promise? But she couldn't say that she could protect her for the rest of her life, so she had to swallow the following words back.

Thinking of this, Zhu Qinglin lost his temper, felt disappointed, and didn't speak, so he shook the horsewhip, turned the horse's head and ran outside the city.

"What's wrong? You go back to the yamen first, and I'll see for myself. Ye Guan, a foolish person, didn't know what kind of temper this eldest lady had, so he had to let everyone go back to the yamen first, and go after Zhu Qinglin alone.

"Hey, what are you running? If you have anything to say, you can say it? How do I know if you don't say? Ye Guan was choked by the horse, and he hadn't figured out what nerves Zhu Qinglin was experiencing, so he could only ask panting.

"I just don't think it's boring, I want to go home." When Zhu Qinglin heard Ye Guan say this, he suddenly said excitedly.

"Hey, I can tell you, get on my boat, but don't even think about going down, it's only been a long time since you wanted to run away alone. It's not interesting. ”

"Be careful!" Zhu Qinglin just wanted to say something, but suddenly his eyes froze, and he pushed Ye Guan away beside him, Ye Guan was just pushed away, and a flying knife accurately passed through the place where Ye Guan was standing just now. If Zhu Qinglin's eyes are not fast, maybe Ye Guan will be "cold and his heart is flying" at this time.

"What people!" Zhu Qinglin protected Ye Guan behind him, took out his Pu knife, looked at a masked man who suddenly appeared in front of him and asked.

"Who? Naturally, he was the one who killed the dog officer! The man laughed, then raised his knife and slashed.

"Qiang, Qiang, Qiang," although Zhu Qinglin's martial arts were good, he was not the masked man's opponent at all, and he was beaten and retreated, and he was about to be defeated.

"Run up the hill!" Ye Guan saw that Zhu Qinglin was gradually falling behind, and hurriedly shouted at Zhu Qinglin.

"Split up, I'll lure him away!" Zhu Qinglin said such a sentence to Ye Guan.

"No, let's go together! I'm not going to let you be the bait at this time! When Ye Guan heard this, he suddenly thought that he had just arrived in Beizhili last year and was forced to go up and disperse with his guards, and they didn't escape in the end in order to cover themselves.

And now that Zhu Qinglin said such a sentence again, he immediately let Ye Guan reject this proposal without thinking about it, and a big man asked a girl to help him lead away the pursuers, so just don't live, and let that person kill him with a knife.

Zhu Qinglin saw Ye Guan's expression and words, but suddenly laughed.

"Okay, let's go together!"

The two men fled to the top of the mountain with all their strength. At first, Ye Guan pulled Zhu Qinglin to escape, and when he was still more than thirty zhang away from the top of the mountain, Ye Guan, who had not exercised, began to be pulled and run up by Zhu Qinglin.

"No, I can't run!" Since Ye Guan came to the Ming Dynasty, this body has not done much exercise, and this body is a four-body talent who is not diligent and does not distinguish between grains, and it has just snowed a goose feather, and the entire mountain is covered with thick snow, and every step is very painful. At first, he could still run a few steps, but after running up the mountain for a while, Ye Guan felt that his heart was like a drum, his ears began to hear heavily, and the muscles of his thighs were beating suddenly, and the pain of being out of breath and suffocating made him almost give up running for his life.

When they ran to the top of the mountain, Ye Guan really couldn't run. He could only sit on the ground panting like a cow, no matter how Zhu Qinglin pulled, the muscles of his legs jumped suddenly, and he couldn't exert any strength at all.

"Run, why don't you run?" The masked man was tired and out of breath, but his physical strength was still much better than Ye Guan and Zhu Qinglin, and when he saw the two of them stop, he immediately stood up and looked at the two people in front of him.

His master had told him not to let the girl suffer any harm, otherwise he would have killed them one by one when he was down the mountain, and there was no need to chase them like rabbits until they were exhausted and then catch them.

"Who the hell are you? Why kill me? Ye Guan was delaying time, while thinking about seeing if he could repeat his old tricks and jump down the hillside on the other side.

"You just know that I'm here to kill you, because you've messed with someone you shouldn't! And do you think I can't see your delaying tactics? Below the hillside on the back is a rocky beach, and jumping off it is a death. Do you think you'll be able to find another river to escape? Not all hills have a creek for you to jump in! "That person is not only strong in martial arts, but also not stupid, Ye Guan's idea he quickly understood after just one glance, so he said with a sneer.

"You're from the court!" Although the man saw through Ye Guan's thoughts, Ye Guan heard from his words that this person must be related to some people in the imperial court, because the last time he escaped from the mountains from those horse bandits, he escaped by jumping into the river, but these situations are absolutely unknown to ordinary people in the rivers and lakes. This person not only saw his thoughts, but also said such a sentence, he must have clearly investigated all his circumstances, maybe it was Dongchang or Shouninghou or the White Lotus Sect.

"It's useless to say that, as long as you obediently suffer death, I promise not to move this woman at all." The man didn't answer Ye Guan's words, only said that as long as Ye Guan died, he would be able to move Zhu Qinglin.

"Sure enough, it was someone related to the court, he knew Zhu Qinglin's identity, and he didn't dare to touch Zhu Qinglin." Ye Guan thought in his heart that Zhu Qinglin would probably be fine, but he was going to die.

"Okay, I'll come here, you swear not to move her!" Ye Guan said these words as he slowly walked towards the man.
