But not all of them went into the yard, there were still three people left on the roof, and five on the ground.

Such a layout shows that it acts cautiously and vigilantly.

Xie Yunxiao avoided these people and came to the nearest evergreen tree in the courtyard, hidden among the luxuriant branches and leaves.

The situation inside the yard is unobstructed.

"Found it, this old horseman was killed!"

A startled sound came from inside the courtyard, and then there was a cacophony in the courtyard.

Xie Yunxiao's heart moved, and he whispered to himself: "Kill people and kill people? ”

Xue Ju and King Ning were still looking forward to starting with Yuan Cao and finding out Xiao Mo's hiding place.

Who would have thought that Xiao Mo would be so decisive and ruthless that he would directly kill Yuan Cao.

"Oh no, how do you explain to the commander now? How to explain to Your Majesty? ”

"Damn Blood Moon Cult demons!"

In the courtyard, there was no sound coming out.

Xie Yunxiao was about to go over to the courtyard to take a look, when suddenly, he sensed an inexplicable qi machine that suddenly appeared, and the moment he lost his mind, he was locked.

"Who are you? Why is it here? ”

The indifferent voice pierced through the dark night, pouring into Xie Yunxiao's ears like water waves.

Xie Yunxiao didn't move, because he knew that anyone who had the slightest abnormal move and locked him with his qi machine would instantly launch a stormy attack.

This is a master at the peak of the Seven Realms, and an inexplicable iron-blooded killing intent was released from his body, causing the temperature around him to drop suddenly.

Xie Yunxiao's divine consciousness set off from the sea of consciousness and submerged into the void, and the master who locked him with his qi machine could not perceive Xie Yunxiao's divine consciousness power at all, and it had already penetrated into the void.

At this moment, a figure came out of Xie Yunxiao's mind.

It was a man of about twenty-seven or eighteen years of age, dressed in black armor, with long black hair tied up high, a bronzed complexion, sword eyebrows flying obliquely into his sideburns, and his eyes were like cold stars.

There was an indescribable arrogance between his eyebrows, and his straight body stood in the void, like a sharp sword, and the edge was so strong that it stabbed straight into the void and sneered.

"Under Xie Yunxiao!" Xie Yunxiao did not hide it.

Because he made a guess, this young man should be King Ning's person, and faintly, Xie Yunxiao could also guess his identity.

There are many capable people around King Ning, but there is only one person like this young man, and that is Meng Tian, the leader of the Xuanjia Guard.

Those people in black are naturally Xuanjiawei.

"Xie Yunxiao? The master of the Great Prince? Meng Tian's eyes suddenly showed a little more surprise, but he didn't let his guard down or remove the lock on Xie Yunxiao's qi.

"You're Mr. Xie, why are you here?" Meng Tian's expression instantly became serious, and every word he said was like a heavy cone, knocking Xie Yunxiao's heart.

If Xie Yunxiao was just an ordinary Great Zhou Heavenly Realm, he would probably vomit blood in these few moments.

Meng Tian saw that Xie Yunxiao was not affected, and there was more surprise in his eyes.

The qi that locked Xie Yunxiao also dispersed at this time.

Xie Yunxiao smiled indifferently and said, "Why did the general suddenly believe me?" ”

"Being calm and calm in a crisis, not moved by external objects, I have long heard Mr. Xie shine in the Chengtian Palace, and I can see it with my own eyes today, and I know that the rumors are true!" Meng Tian's cold and arrogant face had a little more smile.

When Xie Yunxiao said his name, he had already believed seven points, and he used ninety percent of his divine sense to coerce, but Xie Yunxiao was still unaffected.

It is not difficult for such a character to break away from the control of his qi engine.

Therefore, Meng Tian believed that Xie Yunxiao was Xie Yunxiao.

Xie Yunxiao had a smile on his face, he looked at this arrogant young man sideways, and thought that this was indeed a very interesting person.

"Mr. Xie appeared here, he must have been chasing that Yuan Cao!" Monty said.

Xie Yunxiao nodded: "Yes!" ”

"Then Mr. Xie followed Yuan Cao just to find Xiao Mo, or did he have other intentions?" Mengtian's words were not polite at all.

Xie Yunxiao said: "Does the general know what happened to Zai Xia and the eldest prince in Zhao State?" ”

Meng Tian was stunned for a moment, and there was a look of doubt in his eyes.

Xie Yunxiao said: "The Blood Moon Sect has designed to assassinate the eldest prince many times in the Zhao Kingdom, as the master of the eldest prince, I am just doing what I should do!" ”

"Then sir, do you know why Zhao Guo is willing to let you come back?" Monty said.

Xie Yunxiao sighed and said quietly: "The snipe and the clam compete, and the fisherman profits!" ”

"Since Mr. knows this truth, we should understand that no matter what we do, we should consider the overall situation of Ningguo!" Meng Tian said lightly.

Xie Yunxiao chuckled: "What does the general think, before the eldest prince comes back, how is the Ning Kingdom court?" ”

Meng Tian frowned: "What do you mean by this, sir?" ”

Xie Yunxiao said: "The eldest prince is the prince of Ningguo, naturally he wants to come back, as for the reactions or actions of the Chinese military officials, princes and princesses, what does this have to do with me and others?" ”

Before Qin Zheng returned to Ningguo, the battle between the second prince and the third prince was very fierce, each with victory and defeat, but it formed an inexplicable balance.

And after Qin Zheng came back, he invisibly broke this balance.

"General, I know that you are worried about the future of Ning Kingdom, but please believe that the same is true for the eldest prince!" Xie Yunxiao said this very sincerely.

Meng Tian's brows furrowed even deeper, but after a while, he smiled indifferently: "Sir, I admire this speaking skill, but I am His Majesty's person, and I am only loyal to His Majesty, and I am and will be in the future!" ”

Xie Yunxiao nodded, Xue Ju and Meng Tian are both such people.

But above the court, people like them are a minority after all.

For example, Prime Minister Yu Buwei, Imperial Historian Gan Chenlan, these ministers in power, seem to be calm and do not make any moves, in fact, if they don't stand in line, there are a few people in the court who dare to stand in line easily.

Xie Yunxiao knew that the road he and Qin Zheng had was difficult to take, but since Zhao Guo, they had no choice, no matter how difficult the road was, they could only move forward bravely.

"Let's not talk about the court for the time being, since Mr. is here, why don't we go and see this abandoned chess piece first?" Meng Tian said again.

Xie Yunxiao nodded, and the two jumped off the roof together.

When the Xuanjia guards in the courtyard saw Meng Tian, they all turned around and saluted respectfully: "I've seen the commander!" ”

At the same time, they were all curious about who this young handsome man standing beside Meng Tian was.

"No need to be polite, I already know the situation here, take me to see Yuan Cao's corpse!" Meng Tian said indifferently.

"Yes!" The leader of the Xuanjia Guard replied respectfully, and then walked towards the back with Meng Tian and Xie Yunxiao.

This is an extremely clean courtyard, with a total of five or six rooms, this kind of courtyard in the capital of Ningguo is also rare, it can be seen that those who once lived here are not idle people.

The place where Yuan Cao was killed was the middle room.

He lay on the ground, a sword stabbing from behind and piercing his heart.

A puddle of blood was left on the ground, and the whole room was filled with the smell of blood.

"Looking at his blind look, obviously until he died, he didn't expect that the people in the house would kill him!" Xie Yunxiao said.

Meng Tian nodded: "And it should be an acquaintance!" ”

"After the murderer kills someone, why do you have to arrange a protective formation?" Xie Yunxiao said.

Meng Tiandao: "If this formation was arranged after killing Yuan Cao, then it doesn't make sense!" ”

The words fell, and the two looked at each other, and their eyes were as bright as stars.

According to this speculation, there is only one explanation, the formation is arranged in order to buy time for himself to leave after killing Yuan Cao.

Under the shroud of the formation, there is only one possibility to leave the courtyard, there is a dark room here, or a dark passage.

Meng Tian's spirit couldn't help but perk, if it was a dark room, it was very likely that the murderer was still hiding in the dark room, as long as he found the dark room, he could catch turtles in the urn.

Xie Yunxiao also looked forward to it a little more.

"Someone!" Meng Tian's voice sounded, and several Xuanjia guards entered the room.

"Find, find me the dark room or the dark passage here!" There was an irresistible majesty in Meng Tian's voice.

Without any suspicion or hesitation, these Xuanjia guards took action.

Xie Yunxiao nodded secretly, the horror of the Xuanjia Guard is not only the Xuanjia Guard, the unfathomable depth of the sky is also a key factor.

His men, when given orders, will only carry them out and never suspect them.

However, this terrifying Xuanjia guard has a big flaw and is also very vulnerable once it is caught by the enemy.

Because this army has achieved prestige because of Mengtian, once something happens to Mengtian, the strength of Xuanjiawei is estimated to be attenuated by more than average.

Of course, even if it is attenuated by half, the Xuanjiawei is not comparable to ordinary armies, but at that time, it is no longer today's Xuanjiawei.

In less than a cup of tea, the dark passage in the house was found.

There was a look of regret in Meng Tian's eyes at this time, if it was a dark room, the clue would not be broken, but if it was a passage, the murderer would have fled a long time ago, and the chance of seizing it was too slim.

"Mr. Xie wants to go in and have a look?" Montei asked.

Xie Yunxiao said: "Since they are all here, there is no reason to go back to the house!" ”

Meng Tian smiled indifferently, at this time, Xuanjia Wei came over with torches and walked in front, while Xie Yunxiao and Meng Tian followed into the passage.

"This passage, I don't know where it leads!" Monty said.

Xie Yunxiao said: "Go out and take a look!" ”

There is also a passage in the Humble Garden, and under normal circumstances, this kind of passage that is a little old leads to the outside of the city, which is used to escape in times of war.

Nearly half a pillar of incense time passed, and this passage had not yet been completed, but at this time, some sounds were heard coming into the passage, and the cool breeze blowing in Xie Yunxiao's black hair shook gently.

In such a situation, Xie Yunxiao clearly understood that the passage was about to come to an end.

Those sounds, Xie Yunxiao had already heard clearly at this time, they were the rattling sound of the flow of water.

At the end of this passage, could it be a river?

Walking out of the passage, the darkness of the night enveloped the land, and the light released by the torches illuminated the surroundings, and a wide river came into view, and the exit of the passage was the place where the river narrowed, so that the sound of the water could be heard.
