Chu Yunwu and his party returned to the post house, and Zhang Nanzheng wanted to ask the people left behind if Situ Xia Zhen had come back today. www.biquge.info didn't expect that as soon as he entered the door, he saw Situ Xia Zhen sitting in the lobby.

"Mr. Zhang. Situ Xiazhen stood up and nodded slightly, with obvious exhaustion in his expression.

Leng Moxue and Lin Qingqing followed behind Zhang Nan, and Situ Xia Zhen also nodded in greeting.

Lin Qingqing was a little tired from visiting the Southern Tang Martial Arts Academy, and shouted Sister Situ, and then leaned on a table and waited for dinner. Indifferent Xue sat aside, indifferent.

"I haven't seen you in days. Zhang Nan walked over with a smile and lowered his voice: "Did you encounter any difficulties?"

"It's okay, Mr. Lao is worried. Situ Xia Zhen said: "I just have some clue now, and it may take some time." ”

Zhang Nan still wanted to ask something, but there were too many people around, and it was not the place to talk. I could only suppress the doubts in my heart, chatted a few words, and turned to leave. I plan to find a time to talk to Situ Xia Zhen later.

Seeing Zhang Nan leaving, Situ Xia Zhen sat back in his chair, and his tired expression was even stronger.

Not only are she having trouble these days, she's just having a big problem.

After connecting with the Situ family's dark pile at the earliest, everything went smoothly. But within two days, Situ Xia Zhen sensed that something was wrong.

The dark pile respects her as the eldest lady very much, but when it comes to doing things, she does everything she can to prevaricate and deceive. Although it was very hidden, it was still detected by Situ Xiazhen.

After noticing, Situ Xia Zhen didn't dig deeper. Because she knew that no matter what the reason was, it was not for her to find out, and she didn't have the time to investigate it now. But for her to give up, again, is even more impossible.

Situ Xia Zhen decisively gave up all the clues provided by the dark pile, and instead found other channels again.

Street vendors, frolicking children, Situ Xia Zhen hired a lot of people through various means. She doesn't have to look up what those people look for, she just lets them look at everything they can see, and then extract useful things from them.

She does not choose blindly, every person she hires, she will carefully observe before hiring, and even follow the other party's home.

Situ Xia is really not good at treacherous things, let alone how smart he is. But she does not lack the tenacity of a soldier and her determination to move forward.

What she is doing now is actually more akin to a battlefield battle. From the minutiae such as personnel mobilization, food and grass supply, collect all kinds of information from the enemy, and then screen and analyze to extract valuable information.

This kind of thing should have been done by scouts, staff officers, and so on. But in the past few days in Anjing, it has been done by Situ Xiazhen alone.

Situ Xia really didn't think about complaining to Zhang Nan or asking for help. Even if Zhang Nan asked just now, she didn't think to say it.

Since he has been ordained, he should do his best to complete it. Always thinking about asking others for help and waiting for reinforcements, what use do you want her?

Situ Xia Zhen came back today, just thinking that he hadn't returned to the post house for a long time, which might make people worry and suspicious. Now that she has taken the picture, she will continue to do her business.

After drinking the tea in the cup, Situ Xia Zhen got up and left. When I went out, I subconsciously looked up, and my eyes were fixed.

Yuan Yansheng, who was carrying a sword on his back, came from a distance.

Situ Xia really recognized Yuan Yansheng, but what attracted his attention was a person in the distance.

The man seemed to be just walking on the street casually, but his eyes always fell on Yuan Yansheng's body inadvertently. This kind of thing, which is difficult for ordinary people to find, is very eye-catching for Situ Xiazhen. Seeing the man's face again, Situ Xiazhen's eyes lit up slightly.

In the past few days, through the eyes of the streets, dozens of targets who have been in and out of the city guard barracks have been locked, and one of them is the person who follows behind. Now that person actually followed Yuan Yansheng to the post house, the suspicion naturally increased.

Situ Xia really acted as if nothing had happened, and walked to a shop near the post house. There are a lot of students who have been shopping on the street these days, and Situ Xia's behavior is not noticeable.

"Is the guard Xue available?" Yuan Yansheng walked to the door of the post house and asked the guard.

Indifferent Snow turned into men's clothes and made a pseudonym with her mother's surname. After fighting with Yuan Yusheng that day, many people investigated, and the Chuyun Martial Academy replied with the title of Xue Guard.

The guard of the post house was from the Southern Tang Dynasty, and he recognized Yuan Yusheng, so he hurriedly went in to report.

After a while, a large group of people walked out of the post house.

There's no way, it's okay if you look for someone else, but if you look for Xue Guard, dozens of them will be considered less.

Indifferent Xue rested in the lobby, and when she heard that Yuan was looking for it, she went upstairs and took the Frost Sword and went out. She is even more unfamiliar and unfamiliar, and the other party's purpose for looking for her is as the name suggests.

"It seems that you are not prepared to run away. Yuan Yansheng saw that Indifferent Xue was raising his sword, and nodded slightly: "This time, I won't be careless." ”

Indifferent Xue glanced at Yuan Yansheng twice, and then turned around and walked into the post house. The fan group didn't know why, and turned around and walked back. Yuan Yusheng hung on the street by himself, only feeling the cool breeze.

"The surname is Xue, what do you mean?!" Yuan Yansheng was furious.

Zhang Nan stopped Lin Qingqing and the fan group who wanted to try it inside, and personally came out to negotiate with Yuan Yansheng.

"Let's go. Zhang Nan said: "Guard Xue won't do anything with you anymore." ”

"Why?" Yuan was angry: "Afraid of losing?" or running away?"

"Because you're stupid. Zhang Nan looked at Yuan Yansheng like an idiot, and did not hide the contempt in his eyes: "Guard Xue was originally going to take your challenge, but you yourself lost the qualification for the challenge. If you have to do it, it's not a fight, it's a duel. ”

Indifferent Snow is not afraid of any challenge, but it is impossible to take on everyone's challenge either. For Yuan Yansheng, Indifferent Xue originally had a recognition, so he was willing to give him a chance. But Yuan Yansheng opened his mouth to say those two words, which made Leng Moxue feel that he had seen the wrong person, so he naturally would not accept his challenge again.

Those who make excuses for failure are cowards and are not qualified to be opponents. Unless there is a fight to the death, Indifferent Xue will no longer pay attention to this person.

The reason why Zhang Nan came out to negotiate was not how much he treated Yuan Yansheng, but because he didn't want to be indifferent to Xue Zhen to come out and stab him to death.

And after a few days of communication with the Southern Tang Martial Academy, Zhang Nan faintly saw something. I'm afraid that the government of the Southern Tang Dynasty has really fallen into the control of demons. He didn't want to wade into this troubled water, but as a member of the human race, and now that he was in troubled waters, there were some things that he couldn't escape.

Yuan Remnant cultivated demon martial arts, and his identity was obviously extremely special. might as well take this opportunity to bury a thorn in him. Whether it will be useful in the future or not, it will not hurt in the end.

"Do you understand?" Zhang Nan glanced at Yuan Yansheng, who was still angry:

"I've been in Nantang for a few days, and I've heard your name many times. The closed disciple of the dean of the Southern Tang Inner Academy, the first swordsman of the Southern Tang Martial Academy, it is said that no one in the same realm can take your three swords. It seems that both yourself and others who mention you have a high opinion of you. It's just that it seems to me that you're all a little bit sitting on the sidelines. ”

"It's useless to talk more!" Yuan Yansheng was really angry: "Since Xue Guards can't come out, then ask Mr. for advice." I missed it last time, and I just ...... today."

"Just what? I suppressed the realm and fought with you? Why?" Zhang Nan interrupted Yuan Yansheng: "You are good, and other people are good, it's right to be self-reliant and enterprising, but why do you think that others have to act according to your rules? You should really go outside and take a look, although Nantang is caught between the two great powers, it has not closed your border.

Take yourself as an example, you really think that you are invincible in the same realm, what is the first sword of the Southern Tang Martial Academy? If it weren't for the fact that you are the disciple of the dean of the Inner Court, you really can't take your three swords when someone else? And what kind of inner court assessment is that swinging for 100 days, you just talked casually when I was that day? In addition to being cruel and brainless, what kind of talent can be selected by such rules?

Whether you or that brainless assessment, they are all products built within the rules! Rules that belong to you, rules that belong to the Southern Tang Dynasty. But once you leave the land, or people like us come in, who will follow your rules?

Feeling that he was careless, he came to challenge Xue Guard. But if you lose again this time, you're afraid you'll find other excuses. Not to mention that you can't get back into this field, even if you are killed by Xue Guard's sword in the battle, you won't realize where you lost. ”

Facing Zhang Nan's series of mouth artillery bombardments, Yuan Yansheng was stunned for a while. He wanted to refute, but suddenly found that he didn't seem to have anything to refute.

Over the years, the Southern Tang Dynasty has been striving for self-improvement, and the training of the students of the Southern Tang Martial Arts Academy is even more severe and cruel. But as Zhang Nan said, no matter how cruel they are, they are only in their own one-third of an acre, and they have not undergone the real test at all.

Even the powerful demons, including the powerful demons, have only cowered in a corner of the Southern Tang Dynasty over the years. Yuan Yansheng knew that the demons were planning something, but before he only didn't like it at most, and didn't feel that it was wrong.

Because no matter what the demons do, Nantang will grow with it, and it will change the situation of today's small country. But after listening to Zhang Nan's reprimand, Yuan Yansheng felt as if he was wrong, and everyone was wrong.

Whether it was the imperial court or the demons, their horizons had never been opened, and they had never really looked at where Wei Wu and Chu Yun were so powerful. I only believe in my own strength, and the reason why I am weak now is that I have not really brought these powers into play. As long as you go out, you will definitely succeed, and as long as you expand the territory of the Southern Tang Dynasty, you will definitely be able to become a powerful country in the world.

Vision determines thoughts, and thoughts determine direction. If you take the wrong path from the beginning, how can you bring a bright future to Nantang.

Yuan Yansheng left in a daze, and he didn't know how he left.

A hidden thorn can be regarded as buried, but what role it will play in the future, Zhang Nan can't say at this time.

Looking at the back of Yuan Yansheng leaving, Zhang Nan sighed faintly and turned around to go back to the post house.

Zhang Nan didn't notice that with Yuan Yusheng leaving, Situ Xiazhen followed. However, the person Situ Xia Zhen was following was not Yuan Yansheng, but a figure who had been hiding at the end of the street, sneaky and unnoticed by others. (To be continued.) )
