Chapter 69: The Land of the Warriors
Since Kai regains her memory, Luna and her brother have been as close as they were when they were younger.
She also learned a lot about the truth from her brother. It turned out that the elder brother was framed by people back then, and the reason why his parents were killed was related to the disappeared Book of Heaven, which was brought into the Land of Warriors by his father's old friend Jayne, Marco Polo's father.
Therefore, as long as Jayne is found, it is possible to understand the truth about the murder of his parents. My brother went to the Western Regions to find the murderer who framed him, but he may not be able to find it. After much deliberation, Luna finally plans to find out the truth about the family while dealing with the family's affairs.
It took a lot of time for Luna to find out. Jayne went to Datang again ten years ago, when his parents were killed, for some reason, and never came back, whether he lived or died is unknown. Because of this, Jayne's only son also left the Land of Warriors not long ago and went to Datang to find his father's whereabouts.
Although Jayne and his son are not yet in the Land of Warriors. Luckily, however, Jayne's master, a teacher named Finch, remains in the Land of Warriors. This also leaves a glimmer of hope for Luna to unravel the truth of the past.
But where is the teacher named Fincher hiding? Luna scouted all of her family and sent them to the land of the Warriors, but she still couldn't find his whereabouts.
On this occasion, Luna receives a letter from her brother from the Western Regions.
The letter said that the murderer was not in the Western Regions now, but was very likely to be wandering in the land of warriors, and the letter also stated that his brother would rush back soon.
The murderer is still in the Land of Warriors, which makes Luna's heart tremble, but more of a stealing joy. As long as the murderer is in the land of warriors, then relying on the power of the family, it is easy to capture him. Luna thought.
Later, Luna sent someone to paste the portrait of the murderer all over the Warrior Land.
This directly attracted the attention of the northern nobles of the Land of Warriors, the Miladyi family. Because Miledi discovers that the murderer that the Luna family wants to arrest is her lover, Yuan Ge.
Fortunately, her lover Yuan Ge traveled to the Far North not long ago. Therefore, Milady did not take any rash action. It's about choosing and waiting to see what happens. This is also limited by the power of her family, and the power of the Luna family, which is almost equal in the land of warriors.
One day, a scout came to report that Marco Polo had gone to Miledi's mansion before leaving. But the exact reason for going is unknown.
The more Luna thought about it, the more strange she felt, how could an ordinary young man have a relationship with the nobles of the north, this must have something to do with his eastward journey to the Tang Dynasty.
So Luna secretly plans to visit the Milady's mansion at night.
At night, Luna changes into casual clothes and a veil over her face. Eight or nine people were brought with them, and they were hidden outside the Milady's mansion.
However, Luna decided to climb over the wall alone to prevent her from being overcrowded and prone to revealing her whereabouts.
Luna's phantom moved slightly, flying off the walls, and with the help of the cover of the towers, she evaded the patrols of the guards and infiltrated the depths of the mansion.
To the northeast, a five-story building with a brightly lit attic caught Luna's attention. And there are the most patrols around it, like a tight cage.
Could it be that there is an important person imprisoned here, could it have something to do with the purpose of Marco Polo's visit? If you want to sneak into the attic and find out, you can only wait until the change of guard. Luna thought to herself.
Luna has no choice but to hide in a dark corner, observing, and waiting for the best time to come.
Half an hour later, the guards who were guarding the entrance to the tower really wanted to turn around and leave. As they left, Luna stepped lightly on the eaves of the attic in the pale white moonlight, leaping from one to the top of the attic in a ghostly instant.
Luna flicked her fingers at the foam, gently piercing the candlelit window paper.
Through the entrance of the cave, I vaguely saw a white-haired old man sitting at the desk reading a book. "This old man is obviously detained here by Miledi, rather than wait and see, it is better to dare to ask, find out the hidden situation, maybe not in vain." Luna thought to herself.
Having made up her mind, Luna uses her short blade to gently tangle the door into the door. The steps were light, like a weak willow in the wind, flashing behind the old man.
The old man didn't notice that someone had entered the house behind him, and he was still reading a quaint book with relish. Luna gently put the cold light faint protective short blade on the old man's neck, "If you scream, I will kill people." Luna threatened in a cold tone.
An indescribable cold chill struck from his neck in all directions.
The old man did not lose his voice at all, he was still calm, as if nothing had happened, lying there and continuing to watch. Luna was surprised at how calm the old man was.
In fact, the old man mistakenly thought that she was the minions sent by Milady, who tried his best to extract the whereabouts of the Book of Heaven from his mouth. Therefore, turn a blind eye and hear but not hear.
Luna was surprised, and immediately came to her senses, and said sharply: "I don't want to see blood, so I will summon it truthfully and say, who are you, how can you be imprisoned here by Miledi?" ”
