Chapter 57: A Bigger Stage

At night, the exercise temporary command.

Two gray-haired old men sat opposite each other, one drinking leisurely, and the other intently looking at the two reports of the first phase of the exercise for recruits by the light.

"This old thing, how can he be eyeing Xiao Qi?" Du Yu put down the teacup and looked at Qin Dufeng opposite uneasily.

In the entire Heavenly Dragon Empire, except for Long Xiaoyun, only a few people knew Qin Dufeng's true identity. On the surface, he was a court painter of the royal family, but in fact, he was not only a powerful cultivator at the level of a holy sword, but also the leader of a mysterious force on the continent. In the first thirty years of his life, he was Long Xiaoyun's most feared enemy, and he would want to get rid of him as soon as he went to heaven and earth. In the next thirty years, he became Long Xiaoyun's close comrade-in-arms and staunch supporter, and guarded the Tianlong royal family with all his might.

Du Yu didn't know what kind of story was hidden behind this bizarre turn of events, he only knew that this man who stood behind the supreme imperial power like Long Xiaoyun's shadow was an extremely terrifying being, and all the things that Long Xiaoyun couldn't do were done by fake hands. Thanks to his clean and tidy style, some things become mysteries that can never be solved.

Because he understands him, Du Yu doesn't want Mu Bai's righteous son to have anything to do with him, or be picked by him to perform any shady tasks. Therefore, when he sent Zhu Xiaoqi's report, he took Mo Tianci's copy with him.

"Lao Du, I've finished reading the report. I'd like to hear what you have to say about the two of them. After reading the report, Qin Dufeng raised his head and smiled.

He just wanted to know about Zhu Xiaoqi's situation, but Du Yu also brought Mo Tianci's assessment report to him, and the old boy's heart for Zhu Xiaoqi's protection was clearly revealed. Since everyone was on the same page, he thought the conversation would be lighthearted.

"The ox man uses strength, the lazy man uses his brain, the two of them should be considered to have their own strengths!, but what about ......" Du Yu smiled.

"But what?"

"If the purpose of your trip is to select materials, I'd better consider Mo Tianci. If you choose Zhu Xiaoqi, I'm afraid you will regret it. Du Yu kindly reminded. Although he had the intention to defend Zhu Xiaoqi, he didn't have any selfishness when he said this. There are too many unstable factors in Zhu Xiaoqi's body, and it seems that he basically belongs to the type that may explode at any time and may hang up at any time.

"Regret?" Qin Dufeng said in surprise, "Why?"

"Lao Qin, haven't you read that kid's assessment report for the first stage? I don't rule out the possibility that Zhang Tianwei, the commander of the first company, deliberately smeared him, but on the whole, this kid has an evil spirit in his bones, and he is a guy who doesn't play cards at all!"

"You mean this!" Qin Dufeng smiled, smiling widely.

What a precious temperament! Without this temperament, how could it be possible to gain a foothold in Blackwater City, which is known as the city of sin? It's good not to play cards according to the rules, the place where the fish and dragons are mixed in Blackwater City is the talent who needs this kind of indiscriminate punch to kill the master!

"What are you laughing at?" Du Yu was so laughed by him that his scalp tingled.

"I laugh because a wise man will make a mistake in a thousand thoughts. You must not have thought that your words strengthened my idea of choosing Zhu Xiaoqi, right?"

Du Yu was confused when he heard this, and looked at him blankly.

"In that place in Blackwater City, if you let a righteous gentleman go, it will definitely be a meat bun and a dog and never come back. Only this kind of steamed bun that looks thin and thick but is actually poisonous can kill a bunch of people!" Qin Dufeng smirked.

"Do you want to be so ruthless? poisonous is poisonous, and Nima poison is poisonous....... which vicious adjective was invented by dog X?" Later, one day, after Du Yu relayed Qin Dufeng's description of his image to Zhu Xiaoqi, he was strongly complained by Zhu Xiaoqi. When he learned that this word was the work of a group of bored birdmen in a place called Longkong, he directly led his troops to rush over, arrested all the birdmen, and then fed them a large mouthful.

"Blackwater City, do you want him to die?" Du Yu said abruptly. At the junction of the four countries, nine deaths and one life, the evil Blackwater City, the horror that normal people can't avoid, the paradise of the world in the eyes of the wicked and the bad, this little fresh meat is swallowed in, and it is estimated that it will become the excrement of a lot of wicked people when it comes out.

"General Xiao found the clue that the Li family's father and son were killed, and the weapons used by the bandits under the Yinshan Blood Tomb seem to be from Blackwater City. Qin Dufeng looked at him and said solemnly, "Your Majesty is determined to investigate this matter thoroughly. He asked the recruit Zhu Xiaoqi to go to Blackwater City to participate in the investigation, in order to comfort Mu Bai's spirit in the sky. However, His Majesty also said that you are Mu Bai's teacher, and he will respect your opinion. ”

Du Yu listened to his words and had mixed feelings in his heart. Xiao Wanli is a real man! He not only blocked the wind and rain in the northwest with his sick body and won more than ten years of peace for the empire, but also took the great risk of offending Tianwei to speak up for the Li family, who did not have much contact with him. You must know that after the Li family tended to decline and the Wu and Lan families rose, few of the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty would still mention the old affairs of the Li family. After that, let it be calm, they don't know the true attitude of Long Xiaoyun towards the Li family in their hearts, they don't want to expose his wounds, and they don't want to blame Wu Lan, the two new forces that share the power of the Li family, because of meddling.

It's just that the events that the Li family has encountered in the past 20 years have been treacherous and foggy, can they keep the clouds open and see the moon this time? Does this mean that the bloody and shameful past that has been sealed in the history of the empire may also reveal its unknown side?

"Old Qin, to be honest, to this day, I still can't accept Mu Bai's fiasco outside Flying Dragon City!" Du Yu sighed.

Qin Dufeng smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty can't accept it either. In front of us is a huge mystery, and the best person to uncover him should be General Mu Bai's righteous son. ”

"He's too weak, I'm worried about ......"

"With me here, you don't have to worry. ”

"Then it's up to you!"

"You've been waiting for me to say that, haven't you?"

The two looked at each other and smiled, sending a certain recruit to a bigger stage.

In the evening, Dark Fragrance Yaju welcomed the first guest of the year - a man who was so handsome that Xiangxiang who was used to seeing handsome guys had to marvel. However, at the first sight of him, Xiang Xiang knew that this was an extremely dangerous person, and his handsome appearance was like the pattern on the body of a poisonous snake, but it was just a decoration to confuse its prey.

The reason why she met him was because this person was the biggest customer of Dark Fragrance Shadow in the past two months, and it seemed that there was still a possibility of long-term cooperation between the two sides.

"Mr. Xuanyuan Yu, it seems that the time we agreed on has not yet arrived, right?" Xiangxiang gently cocked her legs, revealing her slender white thighs, which looked particularly attractive in the blurry light.

Xuanyuan Yu enjoyed this way of talking about business. After staying with the violent woman Cang Yuyao for a long time, the gentleness of the woman in front of him made him feel relaxed and happy.

"New assignments, double the honorarium. He smiled in response.

Xiangxiang couldn't help but be moved. Last time, she took a few silk threads to check on someone, and the shot was 100,000 gold coins, and this task was completed by her subordinates in less than a week. This time it was more atmospheric, and the shot was 200,000 gold coins.

"Xiangxiang is rude. She smiled, "It seems that Xiangxiang will have to look forward to the arrival of Mr. day and night in the future." ”

"Find out all the information about this man's life for me. Xuanyuan Yu's hand shook slightly, and a note floated to the coffee table beside Xiangxiang, and landed accurately next to her hand holding the cup.

"Zhu Yunzhao. Xiangxiang looked at the note and couldn't help frowning, "Only his name, no other information about him?"

"Yes. However, after you read it, you must keep it secret. Xuanyuan Yu said solemnly.

"Since you can find Dark Incense, you should know Dark Incense's style. Xiangxiang said proudly, "Since its establishment, Dark Fragrance has never lost its trust in any customer. ”

"I know that, but this matter is very important, and I have to remind it. Please forgive Miss Xiangxiang!" After Xuanyuan Yu finished speaking, he stood up and walked to her side.

"This man, the weapon he uses is a big sword. On the sword, there is a special pattern. He took a pen and drew lightly on a piece of paper.

That familiar pattern made Xiangxiang's heart tremble.

What is the origin of this young man, and why is he looking for the last Iron Guard?
