(Cold, fever, runny nose, the writing is a little rough, please bear with me.) ）

The night sky is like ink, splashing the world.

Looking at the soldiers who had been on guard, Cai Mingquan smiled bitterly, although he didn't understand what was going on, but Cai Mingquan felt that it was better to leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible, thinking of this, Cai Mingquan looked back at the food he had prepared, the food was rice soup and green vegetables, without a single bit of meat scrap and fishy oil, like a dinner prepared for whom.

Gritting his teeth, Cai Mingquan decided to continue to take the food away, even if he would be punished for it to reach Chu Yan's ears.

But when Cai Mingquan came out with the food in both hands, he was greeted by an unfamiliar face, although there was a kind smile on that face, but Cai Mingquan did not feel the good impression that the person showed to him at the moment - there are hundreds of people up and down the Chu Mansion, Cai Mingquan not only knows them, but even the seven aunts and eight aunts of some people inquire clearly, and the strange young man in front of him has an old scar on the corner of his mouth, and although there are many smiles on his face, he is a little cold.

Since he didn't know him, and appeared in front of him at such a moment, Cai Ming was not a fool, and he guessed Su Qin's identity in just a face-to-face time, and he wanted to open his mouth to shout that he was here and was frightened by what Su Qin was holding in his hand.

What Su Qin was holding in his left hand was a green blade, and the silver wire carried by the handle of the green blade had been wrapped around Cai Mingquan's neck, Cai Mingquan believed that as long as he shouted even a syllable, he would definitely be greeted by the person in front of him without hesitation.

Feeling the strength coming from the back of the Huangquan knife in Su Qin's right hand, Cai Mingquan's body involuntarily took a step back, Su Qin stepped forward, and then closed the wooden door of the kitchen with his hand.

"Take me out of here. Looking at the frightened Cai Mingquan, Su Qin didn't give Cai Mingquan time to think about it, and said his purpose cleanly.

"You can't escape. Cai Mingquan saw that Su Qin had a request for himself, and his heart was a little more stable, after all, he was over forty years old and had seen a lot of big scenes in the mansion, and he still had a trace of luck in his heart at this moment.

"Want to bargain?" Looking at the vitality that appeared in Cai Mingquan's eyes, Su Qin sneered, slowly raised his right hand, and swept it hard, the Huangquan knife seemed to blow a fresh wind, but this breeze was like a knife, and it fell on a stone slab not far from Cai Mingquan's eyes, leaving a deep dark groove.

Although he didn't say a word, Su Qin's actions at the moment made Cai Mingquan a little irrepressibly terrifying, seeing Su Qin's strength, Cai Mingquan was a little surprised and a little unbelievable at the same time, this, is this the legendary sword qi?

It's just that Cai Mingquan can't understand why if the young man in front of him has such strength, why is he afraid of those soldiers outside?

No matter what Cai Mingquan was thinking, the green blade in Su Qin's hand shook in front of Cai Mingquan's eyes, "I advise you to make a decision quickly, if you don't want to die." ”

Cai Mingquan heard the impatience in Su Qin's words, and looked at Su Qin's face with hatred in his eyes, but this hatred was quickly replaced by helplessness, "Where do you want to go?"

"Safe place. Su Qin replied seemingly casually - now the City Lord's Mansion can be called a safe place, only those places that the soldiers will not search, these places, I am afraid only Cai Mingquan knows.

Cai Mingquan was silent, did not resist or move.

"Take me back to your residence first. Looking at Cai Mingquan's appearance, Su Qin raised his green blade and gently stabbed into the skin on Cai Mingquan's chest.

Although it hurt, Cai Mingquan didn't scream.

Su Qin didn't notice that when Cai Mingquan, who was bowing his head, heard Su Qin say that he should take him back to his residence, Cai Mingquan's expression changed suddenly.

Su Qin didn't know that Cai Mingquan at this moment clenched his hands, and Cai Mingquan, who wanted to shout about the jade burning, finally hung his head helplessly for some reason and gave up the idea.

Seeing that Cai Mingquan didn't speak, Su Qin didn't talk nonsense, looking at the silver wire wrapped around Cai Mingquan's neck, Su Qin used the green blade to pass through Cai Mingquan's back brocade clothes, held the green blade in his hand, and then stuffed the Huangquan knife on his lower waist, and finally held up the tray where Cai Mingquan prepared food, just like this, holding the green blade in one and a half hands, and lifting the tray with the other hand to follow Cai Mingquan's back and walk outside.

There was much less noise in the city lord's mansion, and the soldiers put their hands on the intersections, just like those male lions running on the grassland, without prey, no matter how terrifying the male lion's minions were, they would be useless in the end.

Cai Mingquan walked all the way, and he was terrified - Cai Mingquan was not afraid of death, otherwise he would not have stayed in the City Lord's Mansion for twenty years, and the reason why Cai Mingquan covered for Su Qin when the soldiers looked at Su Qin was because in Cai Mingquan's opinion, there were things more important than his own life waiting for him to do.

"It's here. Looking at a small but secluded courtyard in front of him, Cai Mingquan stopped and said coldly.

Su Qin silently observed the surroundings.

"Don't worry, no one is going to lay a secret whistle here. Cai Mingquan thought that Su Qin was worried that there were soldiers in ambush around him, although his heart was full of indignation, he still reminded him loudly, he wanted this person to disappear from his eyes immediately, or die.

"Do you live alone?" Looking at a lone lamp in the small courtyard in front of him, Su Qin's gaze paused on the tray in his hand, and then frowned.

"Alone. Cai Mingquan subconsciously finished speaking, and only after finishing did he realize that he seemed to be ...... Looking back at Su Qin, Cai Mingquan asked angrily, "What does it matter to you whether I am alone or two?" Since I have brought you here, I want to kill or scrape you." ”

"Your position is not low in the City Lord's Mansion, but you have not married a wife, as the head of the City Lord's Mansion in charge of food, but you went to the kitchen in the middle of the night to steal food, and the amount of food you eat seems to be for two people?" Speaking of this, Su Qin's eyes were confused, and he looked at Cai Mingquan and said with curiosity, "I'm curious, are you hiding in the golden house or do you have something else to hide?"

"You ......" Cai Mingquan's face changed sharply when he was told by Su Qin's words, but he couldn't find an excuse to refute it, and he pointed at Su Qin with his finger, and finally only spit out the word you, and then closed his eyes, it seemed that he didn't care about Su Qin.

Su Qin looked at Cai Mingquan's appearance, shook his head secretly, and followed the man in black here, just to see what the man in black was staring at Li Haoran, but now not only did he not find out about the conversation between the man in black and Chu Yan, but he also didn't see Qi Luoge, and he also leaked his figure, it was useless to stay here, Su Qin, who was about to wait for the opportunity to leave, retrieved the silver wire wrapped around Cai Mingquan's neck, but before Su Qin could turn around, he heard a sound of footsteps not far away.

Glancing at Cai Mingquan, Su Qin frowned, didn't care about what to say, just tapped the bluestone under his feet with his toes, and his figure shot towards the small courtyard where Cai Mingquan lived like an arrow off the string.

Su Qin, who had just closed the chai door, saw a group of soldiers coming to Cai Mingquan.

The person at the head was the man in black that Su Qin had seen before.

The man in black looked at Cai Mingquan who was holding the tray in his hand and frowned, and then waved his hand, a soldier behind him stepped forward and whispered a few words in front of the ear of the man in black, the man in black nodded, and then looked at Cai Mingquan There was a little more chill in his eyes, "Master Cai is really good Yaxing, the third watch cooks and eats by himself in the middle of the night?"

"Of course you have to eat when you're hungry. Looking at the man in black, although Cai Mingquan knew that this man in black was trusted by Chu Yan, but if he didn't show his confidence at this moment, I was afraid that what would happen next would make him even more passive.

With a soft sigh, the man in black looked at the food in Cai Mingquan's hand, and then his gaze stayed on Cai Mingquan's face, "There was a strange assassin in the mansion just now, I guess Master Cai has heard about it all the way." ”

"I've heard a little, but I'm a powerless cook, I can't care about those fights and kills, I don't know what the strange assassin looks like when I see it. ”

"Good, good, very good. The man in black looked at Cai Mingquan, who was talking without leaking, and said in his heart If he hadn't been confident that he was really blinded by your humble and non-arrogant posture, he said three words in a row, and the man in black followed and pointed at Cai Mingquan and said with an angry smile, "You said that you can't control those fights and killings, then I have to ask the last question, where is the person who carried the food behind you just now?"

"My lord said with a smile, you see that I am the only one who is carrying the food now, I don't understand what you mean. ”

"You'll understand. The man in black looked at Cai Mingquan, and the murderous aura in his eyes flashed, "Come on, take down this old puppet for me first, and then search around." ”

"I want to see Lord Chu, I want to see Lord Chu. Looking at the soldiers who came to bind him, Cai Mingquan shouted with unwillingness in his heart, his voice was very loud, and there was a bit of a heart-rending taste.

Signaling his subordinates to plug Cai Mingquan's mouth with rags, the man in black, who felt that his ears were much cleaner, raised his eyes to look at a small courtyard with a lone lamp dimly lit, and walked forward.

Su Qin looked at the man in black who was walking towards this side step by step, and Su Qin suddenly had an extra question in his heart: Why didn't Cai Mingquan say that he was here just now, was it to hide something?

Glancing back at the humble hut, Su Qin didn't notice anything unusual, but just as Su Qin was clenching the Huangquan knife in his hand and waiting for the man in black to enter the house to give the man in black a fatal blow, he heard a slight whimper.

Whimpering came from underground.

Su Qin, who had experienced underground tunnels in both Lihuo City and Guangqi City, lit up in his mind, and said that there was a secret passage underground? And at this time, Su Qin naturally related Cai Mingquan's small courtyard to the dark incense team, because in Su Qin's impression, these strengths that have been hidden on the mainland for twenty years always like to take shortcuts underground.

Where is the switch to the underground tunnel?

Su Qin didn't know.

Coming to the window and looking at the man in black who was getting closer and closer, Su Qin stepped forward and blew out the candle.

Seeing the lights suddenly turn off in the hut, the man in black paused, and slowly pulled out two scimitars from his sleeve.

And Cai Mingquan saw the hut where the lights were out, thinking of his mission, he couldn't help but feel sad and helpless, and as he struggled violently, the man in black turned around.

"Cai Mingquan, what else do you have to say. After the man in black finished speaking, he looked at Cai Mingquan, who seemed to be about to say something, and motioned to his subordinates to take away the rags in Cai Mingquan's hand.

The rag in his mouth was taken away, Cai Mingquan lowered his head and breathed in the air, and then saw him look up at the man in black and smile sadly, and then shouted sorry.

I can't help but say anything, Cai Mingquan didn't say anything, because he bit the poison hidden in the dentures and died with hatred.

Seeing Cai Mingquan commit suicide, the man in black actually sneered out of surprise, without too much surprise and anger.

It seems that he already knew that Cai Mingquan would die.
