On this silent official road, outside the field of life and death.

At this time, there were two Soul Condensation Realms standing in the air, looking at the transparent Life and Death Shura Field in front of them with a solemn face, as if they were integrated with the surrounding environment, and the two of them had been unable to break it with all their strength before.

One of them, standing on the edge of the Shura field, stretched out his hand to touch the edge wall, with a cold face, a grim face, and muttered to himself: "Xiao Wu, you must not have anything to do, I have just experienced the pain of losing a child, and I don't want to experience it again." ”

This person is Chen Jiemo, isn't Chen Jiemo in Xiangyang Pass, thousands of miles away, investigating the death of Qi Ming, why is he here?

......

Time goes back to before Ji Xiaowu set off, Chen Jiemo sat alone in the lamp and meditated.

In order to find out the death of Qi Ming, Chen Jiemo came to Xiangyang Pass a few days ago, making a big fuss about the Confucian handsome account, since the Confucian Shuai has been in charge of the military power of Xiangyang Pass for a hundred years, and dares to make a big fuss about the Confucian handsome account, Chen Jiemo is the first person, the death of Qi Ming really touched Chen Jiemo's bottom line, and he swore when he came that he would not give up if he did not find out the death of Qi Ming.

Although Chen Jiemo is over 100 years old, he is still a junior in front of Confucianism, and he is one of the best in Jizhou, and he is respected anywhere in Jizhou.

Two days ago, he received a letter from Mu Yingtian, telling Chen Jiemo in detail about the plan, and wanted to hear Chen Jiemo's opinion, after some careful consideration, Chen Jiemo felt that the matter was quite safe, so he wrote back to Mu Yingtian to explain the matter.

Chen Jiemo looked at the night outside the window, and when it was over, he secretly pondered: "If there is no accident, today is the day the plan begins, success or failure is in this move, and the four Condensing Soul Realms are in charge, there should be no accidents." ”

At this moment, there was the sound of horses chirping outside, Xiao Qingmo came from outside, and after a few days of cultivation, his injuries were no longer serious.

"Master. ”

"Why are you here at this hour?"

Xiao Qingmo was wearing armor, and the death of Qi Ming seemed to have hit him very hard, his face did not have that kind of bohemian and uninhibited color, a little more calm, a little less free, raised his hand and saluted and said: "Master, the disciple's injury is no longer serious, this time it happened that the ministry changed guards and patrols, and set off after half an hour, the disciple plans to go back, so I want to say goodbye to the master before leaving." ”

After a few days of investigation, Chen Jiemo always felt that the matter of spies would not be so simple, although Xiao Qingmo's strength was not weak, it was better not to get involved, so he said to Xiao Qingmo: "Go, business matters, you don't care about the affairs of your famous junior brother, you know it in your heart, understand?"

"Yes, Master, disciple understands. ”

Hearing that Xiao Qingmo was not as reckless as before, Chen Jiemo felt very relieved, if it was before, this kid would really not agree easily, he was bound to check it out by himself, nodded, and asked casually: "Well, where are you going to change guards this time?"

"This, the disciple really doesn't know, I heard the brothers in the ministry say, this time it was General Yao who personally led the team, and they didn't know where to go, Shizun, you also know that since the last time the spy was exposed, the military order is now very secret. ”

"General Yao?"

The general surnamed Yao seems to be the only one Yao Luanshan, seeing Xiao Qingmo nodding, Chen Jiemo was a little puzzled: "It is said that this kind of patrol does not need him to be a general at all, he does it himself, why does Yao Luanshan personally lead the team, strange?"

Seeing Chen Jiemo's brows frowning slightly, Xiao Qingmo asked in a low voice, "Master, is there anything wrong?"

Xiao Qingmo's question interrupted Chen Jiemo's thoughts, and he came back to his senses and said, "Ah, it's okay, you go, be careful on the road, I won't send you as a teacher." ”

"Yes, Master. ”

After speaking, Xiao Qingmo said goodbye to Chen Jiemo.

After Xiao Qingmo left, Chen Jiemo fell into contemplation because of this incident, and subconsciously Chen Jiemo felt that something was wrong with this matter, his fingers were regular, he lit it on the table, and muttered to himself: "Yao Luanshan, Yao Luanshan, patrol." ”

Chen Jiemo kept in his mind, recalling what Xiao Qingmo said just now, Yao Luanshan is General Zhonglang, and his position is only under the general and marshal of the four towns, this kind of patrol and change of guard does not need him, General Zhonglang, to go on personally, but why that?

Leng Buding Chen Jiemo had a bold idea, and after this idea was born, even Chen Jiemo was taken aback, immediately stood up from his seat, and shouted: "Someone." ”

As soon as the words fell, a soldier outside the door came in and saluted, "Master!"

"You go and invite General Mu Yingzhen to come, and say that I have something important to discuss. ”

"Whoa!"

After a while, a thin man who exuded a cold aura came to Chen Jiemo, this person was Mu Yingtian's clan brother, Mu Yingzhen.

Although Chen Jiemo did not serve in the army, his special status as a member of the Dharma Circle, his status in the army was directly equal to that of General Zhonglang, and since the establishment of the Great Xia Empire, the military title has been perfected, forming a hierarchical system from soldiers to marshals.

Mu Yingzhen, as a partial general, was second only to General Zhonglang, so he came forward and respectfully saluted Chen Jiemo: "Master Chen." ”

The two families are harmonious, Chen Jiemo is the master of Ji Xiaowu, Mu Yingzhen naturally knows that whether it is public or private, Chen Jiemo is worthy of Mu Yingzhen's gift.

Seeing Mu Yingzhen coming, Chen Jiemo hurriedly stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "Ying Zhen, I have an important matter that you need to do, and this matter may be related to the survival of the Mu Li family. ”

Hearing this, Mu Yingzhen raised his eyebrows, looked at Chen Jiemo, and saw that his face was condensed, not like a joke, and said, "What's the matter?"

"Today's big tent discussion, is there any need to change the guards? And Yao Luanshan personally led the team. ”

Mu Yingzhen looked at Chen Jiemo suspiciously and said, "It's true, what's wrong?"

"Such trivial matters are generally the responsibility of Sima or Du Wei of other departments, and it is also the responsibility of generals like you to support death, he Yao Luanshan is a general Zhonglang, why do you suddenly care about this kind of thing?"

Hearing Chen Jiemo's question, Mu Yingzhen thought for a moment and said: "At that time, I was also a little puzzled, but Yao Luanshan said that he hadn't come to Xiangyangguan for a long time, and he wanted to survey the terrain or something, and we also felt reasonable, and Rushuai didn't care about it, so he agreed." ”

As soon as he turned to look at Chen Jiemo and continued: "What's the matter, Landlord Chen, what you just said about the matter related to the two families of Mu Li has anything to do with this?"

These words made Chen Jiemo muttered even more in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "This matter is a bit complicated, I will explain it to you later, Yao Luanshan will set off with the team in about half an hour, what I need you to do is to keep an eye on Yao Luanshan, ensure that he is always in your sight, as long as you find that Yao Luanshan is missing, come back and tell me immediately." ”

Mu Yingzhen took a deep look at Chen Jiemo, based on his trust in Chen Jiemo, he didn't ask much, nodded, and left.

Looking at Mu Yingzhen's back, Chen Jiemo sighed: "Hey, I hope it's not what I think." ”

An hour later, Mu Yingzhen came in a hurry, his face was gloomy and terrifying, he forgot to even salute when he came up, and hurriedly said, "Master Chen, Yao Luanshan is gone." ”

Seeing Mu Yingzhen's expression, Chen Jiemo chuckled in his heart, knowing that he had guessed correctly, and after listening to Mu Yingzhen's words, he said, "Are you sure?"

"Sure, I went to investigate in person, Yao Luanshan was indeed not in the camp at this time, and it was his subordinates who disguised themselves to replace him. Master Chen, where did Yao Luanshan go, he actually had such the courage to ignore the military orders of the Confucian Marshal and leave the camp without authorization, isn't he afraid of the Confucian Marshal's punishment?"

Chen Jiemo made a cold face, looked at Mu Yingzhen and said: "If Yao Luanshan succeeds this time, it is indeed not worth mentioning the punishment, and if I hadn't asked you to investigate in person, who would have known that Yao Luanshan was not in the camp at this time." ”

"What should I do now? What happened to the owner of the Chen building?"

"You and I go to see Rushuai together, let's talk while walking. ”

Saying that, the two of them went out of the mansion and went straight to the camp of the Confucian military tent, and on the way, Chen Jiemo told Mu Yingzhen about Mu Yingtian's plan, and after listening, Mu Yingzhen was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Do you suspect that Yao Luanshan has seen through the big brother's plan, is he going back to help the Yao family? But what does this matter have to do with the Yao family? Big brother, are they dealing with the man in black?"

"Don't forget that there is also the Double Shadow Alliance, as soon as Yao Hanqi died, Xiao Wu was assassinated by the Double Shadow Alliance, if you want to say that there is no cat in it, do you believe it?"

"What do you mean is that it is entirely possible for the Yao family to take advantage of this time and unite with the Double Shadow Alliance, not only planning to get rid of Ji Xiaowu, but also taking the opportunity to get rid of the eldest brother, but the eldest brother is not a vegetarian, I'm afraid their strength is not good, I still don't believe that the Double Shadow Alliance dares to come out?"

The two chatted while walking, and after a while, the handsome tent was in sight, and after listening to Mu Yingzhen's words, Chen Jiemo said quietly: "So with Yao Luanshan, it is unknown." ”

At this time, Confucian Shuai was still dealing with official business, and heard the soldiers outside the door report that Chen Jiemo and Mu Yingzhen asked to meet, Chen Jiemo has not seen him in the past few days, for the death of Qi Ming, and even dared to make a big fuss about his handsome account, if it weren't for his own heart of cherishing talents, he really wanted to march the military law to Chen Jiemo, so late, Chen Jiemo came here may be these things again.

For that spy, he also investigated, and finally found out a person, that person's position is in the staff of the military affairs department, and it is indeed possible to have access to confidential documents, but when he found this person, he had already committed suicide by taking poison, and there was no evidence of his death, and the clues were also interrupted since then, but judging from his experience for so many years, there are still big fish behind this person, but after further investigation, there is no clue at all.

"Let them in!"

After a while, Chen Jiemo and Mu Yingzhen came to the handsome tent and saluted Chi Yuzhen one by one, Chi Yuzhen looked at the two with a smile and said, "It's so late, what's the matter with looking for Ben Shuai?"
