"Our Master... Anyway, it's an old man, not tall, skinny. Mo Min replied.

"What kind of characteristic is this?" Chen Ruoping couldn't help laughing, "Such old men are everywhere, and they are all over the capital, and they are looking for them one by one, so when will they be found? What is his name and what does he look like, you should always know, right?"

"We don't know what his name is, he's our master, and we don't dare ask. There's nothing special about his looks, it's just that his eyes... It's very special, when he glares at you when he's angry, he gets scared and uncomfortable. Mo Cong added next to him.

"Oh?" Chen Ruoping was stunned for a moment, and the appearance of an old man involuntarily appeared in his mind, his eyes were very sharp, and when he was angry, he looked at people, ordinary people didn't know how to place their frightened hands and feet, and even his own cultivation would feel uncomfortable. But that person has lived in the capital for a long time, and he is very tall, and he is completely incompatible with the master that the three people are looking for.

"It's okay, Brother Chen, you don't have to worry about our business. The three of us can just look for it slowly in the city, so we don't need to bother you. You've done us a great favor by letting us live here. Mo Min looked at Chen Ruoping's thoughtful appearance and said.

"I'm not worried, but when I heard your description, I suddenly remembered someone. Chen Ruoping said, "Although you have described it like this, the scope has been narrowed, but in fact, it is still very broad and difficult to find." Well, did your master say that he was going to come to the capital to do something when he left? Maybe it will be easier to find it by following this clue. ”

"Hey, we just don't know what he's doing in the capital, so we don't know where to start. Mo Min sighed and asked, "Brother Chen, what happened in the capital in the past year, you tell us about it, and we can also sort it out." ”

"Coincidentally, I've been outside for the past year, and I really can't tell why what happened in the capital. The only big thing you know has nothing to do with martial arts people, and it won't help you to say it. Chen Ruoping said.

"The three of us have lived in Montenegro for a long time, we have never seen much of the world, and we don't know anything about the affairs of the capital. Brother Chen, you can talk about it, and you should give us a long insight. Mo Cong said.

Chen Ruoping nodded and said, "This major event is that the first emperor died and the new emperor ascended the throne. ”

"Plus 360,000 central troops, heads on the ground!" she sighed and added silently in her heart. When it comes to military secrets, this sentence is naturally inconvenient to disclose.

"Oh, such a big thing, it must have nothing to do with our master. Mo Cong nodded.

He said so on his lips, but he was thinking in his heart: When the old man left, he said that he was going to the capital to do a big thing, and such a big thing as the change of the throne might really have something to do with the old man.

The four of them chatted while eating, and continued to talk about some things in Ruiguo. During the conversation, the Mo family brothers and sisters learned that after the new emperor ascended the throne, the new calendar had been implemented, and now it was not September, but November.

After eating, Chen Ruoping let the three of them have a good rest, and he took the black cloud out, rode on a horse and hurried to the station of the third battalion of the left guard.

It was already late at night when he arrived at the station, Chen Ruoping walked around the camp, explained a few words to He Ming and Deng Yong, the new deputy commanders of the Central Army, and hurried to another place.

Chen's house.

Chen Zhu took a few maids to clean up three guest rooms for the Mo family brothers and sisters, and after a few words of greeting with the three of them, he said goodbye and left.

"Second brother, what should you do next, have you thought about it?" When the people from the Chen Mansion dispersed, Mo Min couldn't wait to ask Mo Cong.

"Didn't you listen to Brother Chen, more than eight months ago, that is, about a month after the old man went down the mountain, there was such a big thing as the change of the throne in the capital. I think this matter must have something to do with the old man, but how it is related, given that we have too few clues at hand, it is useless to guess. Mo Cong said: "In this way, let's go around the capital early tomorrow morning to see if we can find the traces left by the old man on purpose or the traces left by using true qi, and then look for it for a few days." If we don't find anything by then, let's sneak into the palace and go there to see if there are any clues about the old man. ”

"Okay, that's it. Mo Min nodded, "But we must be careful when we act." The capital is not as good as ours, and I saw soldiers everywhere on the street just now, patrolling back and forth in teams, and I don't know what to guard. Although we are not afraid of these people, we can't arouse suspicion, otherwise once we are targeted, many things will be tied. ”

"Well, let's just keep a low profile anyway. Mo Cong said, "Speaking of which, we are still a bit ostentatious about what happened at noon today. I also blamed me for being too angry at the time, although I didn't use my true qi when I kicked that stone out, but my strength made it a little bigger, and it was a bit obvious. Later, Brother Chen took the initiative to return to find us, probably because of that reason. We still have to take care of the injustices in the future, but we must use some more low-key, clumsy and less noticeable ways. ”

"By the way, second brother, why do you say that Brother Chen would help us so much? He asked us to come to live at home, and he offered to help us find the old man. Why is he so kind to us?" asked Mo Min.

"Maybe he's taken a fancy to you, that's why he's helping us like this. Mo Cong smiled.

"Oh, I'm here to tell you seriously, what are you kidding?" Mo Min's face turned red.

"I'm not kidding, it's because this incident is so strange and other reasons can't be explained, so I guess like this. Mo Cong said innocently, "What do you think, Brother Chen is a young general, and he doesn't lack anything in terms of food and clothing." And he himself is a martial arts master, and there are so many people under him, even if there is anything, there is no need to ask for help from a country knight like us who claims to come down from Montenegro, right? ”

"The more I talk about it, the more I don't like it. You are completely living in the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain. Mo Min pursed his lips and said, "Brother Chen, as a native of Chen, can come to Rui Country thousands of miles away to defend the people of Rui Country against foreign enemies, which shows that he is already very noble." Such a high-spirited person, maybe he usually likes to help others. ”

"Well, I don't rule it out either. Mo Cong nodded.

......

The two of them were talking and guessing nonsense, and Mo Xiao looked at the candle flame on the table in a daze without saying a word.

East 4th Street, Yan Mansion.

Chen Ruoping was talking with Yan Tao at night, discussing the upcoming recruitment of recruits.

At the meeting of the Military Aircraft Department, Hang Xiao has made it very clear that this recruitment should not only consider the quality of the soldiers, but also investigate the background clearly. Regarding the population of each county and its relationship with the old army, there is no one who knows the situation better than Yan Tao, the commander of the intelligence department. So Chen Ruoping rushed over overnight to discuss with him.

The two of them screened the situation of each county in detail, and a recruitment blueprint was sketched out little by little in the dialogue between you and me.

"Hey, it's almost there. Chen Ruoping rubbed his hands happily and folded up a few pages of paper full of place names and numbers. "Lao Yan, after finishing the business, I have to trouble you to help with a private matter. ”

"Haha, you kid doesn't delay. Yan Tao scolded with a smile. "If there is a fart, let it go, get out of it after it, Lao Tzu is good to sleep. ”

"Help me find someone. Chen Ruoping said indifferently.

"Oh, who is so important, I have to let Lao Tzu find it. Yan Tao looked surprised. Using the intelligence department to find someone, and it's a private matter, does sound a bit like killing a newborn chick with a knife.

"I'm also helping my friends. Anyway, I've promised people, and I'm still praising you for how powerful you are. The cowhide has been blown out for you, so don't lose face. Chen Ruoping said with a smile.

"Hmph, if you want to lose it, you will lose your face, what is the matter of Lao Tzu?" Yan Tao snorted lightly, and suddenly changed his words and asked, "Your friend? Those three stunned greens at the north gate?"

"Do you know those three people too?" This time it was Chen Ruoping's turn to be surprised.

"Nonsense, what is Lao Tzu doing?" Yan Tao glanced at him disdainfully. "Let me guess, are you so concerned about the affairs of those three people, do you fall in love with the little girl of the other family, or do you fall in love with the kung fu of that young man? ”

"Hey, you old guy, I can't hide anything from you!" Chen Ruoping shook his head and sighed. This Yan Tao is best at deducing the outline of the whole thing through the clues of one scale and half a claw, and his insight is so strong that people have to be convinced.

"Now that you can see it, I won't hide it. In short, although this matter is a private matter, it is a public matter, so you must help with this favor. ”

"Okay. Name, age, characteristics, I'll keep an eye on it. Yan Tao readily agreed.

"I don't know the name, it's an old man anyway. This old man is said to have lived in Montenegro for a long time, but his accent is a pure Beijing accent. In addition, this old man is very thin but has very special eyes, and it is said that you will feel uncomfortable when you stare at him. Chen Ruoping synthesized Mo Min and Mo Cong's statements to depict the image of an old man.

"Oh?" Yan Tao was stunned. "What do I think about ...... when you say that?"

"Hehe, but it's impossible, right?" interrupted Chen Ruoping with a smile.

"Well, it's kind of interesting!" Yan Tao nodded thoughtfully. "I'll take over this job, you go back and wait for news. ”

※※※

It was already midnight when he came out of Yan Mansion, and Chen Ruoping did not go home, but went directly back to the station of the third battalion of the left guard.

She was sleepy and tired after a day of traveling, but she still insisted on washing up before going to the commander's tent to rest.
