Midnight, Matsumoto Castle Higashi.

A black cross-country car was parked on the side of the street, Li Jun leaned on the driver's seat, put his left hand out of the window, and a fire point between his fingers, rising white smoke.

"That's how the whole thing happened, we set up an ambush and killed the peacock after we got the news in advance. Then Chen Qisheng left Inuyama Castle without stopping, and went directly to the direction of Himeji Castle to chase Akechi Nagano. ”

The impermanence ring worn by Li Jun on the middle finger of his right hand shot out a misty light, interweaving a slightly illusory graceful figure in the co-pilot seat.

"Known as the strongest general flag of the Jinyi Guard in the Japanese District, it died so lightly?"

Concubine Yuan Ming smiled faintly, "You also said that it was just a title, if she was really that powerful, she wouldn't be just a general flag." ”

"And"

Concubine Yuan Ming blinked: "Are you underestimating me a little?" ”

"Not really."

Li Jun's face was silent, and the corner of his eye glanced at the long leg embedded with gold thread without a trace.

"If you are still the same as when you were in Chongqing Mansion, I am afraid you will not be able to escape the pursuit of Sangyan Temple. By the way, the news that the peacock infiltrated Inuyama Castle to kill Ling really came from Edo Castle? ”

"I was surprised by that, too, but it was."

Concubine Yuan Ming shook her head: "Originally, I was just guessing, but it wasn't until Xie Bi'an compiled a false news that 'Peacock Died by a Rogue Samurai' and sent it back to Edo City's hundred households, and the other party just calmly asked Inuyama City to help send the body back, and I confirmed that King Ming deliberately asked her to die!" ”

Concubine Yuan Ming's phoenix eyes were slightly closed, and a faint palpitation appeared on her face.

In the big cities in various parts of the Wa District, only 100 households and two general flags are set up in the Jinyi Guardian House, and no more than three small flags are set up under the general flag.

It can be seen how high the gold content of the general flag of a local household is.

But such a general banner who has been born and died for so many years, and is also a confidant and right-hand man, King Ming betrayed the other party so without hesitation.

King Ming's indifference and ruthlessness have to be shocking.

Li Jun took back his left arm that was sticking out of the window and rubbed his eyebrows, "Then why did he do this?" ”

"Who knows."

Concubine Yuan Ming pursed her lips and smiled: "Maybe it's to show favor to you?" You must know that in the entire Jinyi Guard in the Japanese District now, who doesn't know that Su Ce of Qianhu treats you differently? ”

"King Ming is not like the kind of person who grovels and will easily admit it."

Li Jun grinned, King Ming's tough attitude at the New Dan review meeting, he still remembered it vividly.

A character who dares to make a small hill under Su Ce's nose and test the other party's bottom line, how can he choose to break his arm and surrender because of a 'different eye'?

"But beyond that, I really can't figure out why he betrayed his own flag."

Concubine Yuan Ming emphasized: "And this is still at the risk of offending Sangyan Temple." After all, he was the location of one hundred households in Edo City, but the two families of Hanshan and Sangyan exchanged real money from Su Ce. If there is the truth in Sangyan Temple, that group of nuns will not give up easily. ”

Li Jun raised his eyebrows when he heard this, "That"

Before he could say anything, Concubine Yuan Ming guessed his thoughts, shook her head and said, "The 'meat letter' that delivered the news self-destructed, and there was nothing left. Even if you splash dirty water, it won't have much effect. ”

"Okay."

Li Jun scratched his head and laughed, and the car fell silent for a while.

"What did you think about what I said earlier?"

Concubine Yuan Ming pondered for a moment, and suddenly said: "Now that the peacock is dead in Inushan City, Sangyan Temple will definitely continue to attack." If you don't want to, I'll run away as soon as possible. ”

Li Jun was silent for a moment, then smiled sideways: "Do you really want to join Jinyiwei?" ”

"Women, always find yourself an eaves to cover your head."

"The wind and rain in the area are strong, and my eaves are not spacious, so I can't guarantee that you won't get wet."

"I've lived a lot of stormy days. I'm good at it. ”

Concubine Yuan Ming's tone was soft, but Li Jun still saw a trace of hidden nervousness in those trembling eyes.

Li Jun grinned and said, "Concubine Yuan Ming, the second small banner of the Jinyi Wei of Inuyama City, this name is even more ugly than the special guest secretary." ”

"Is it unpleasant?"

Concubine Yuan Ming smiled: "I think it's very good." ”

Click.

The sound of the car door pulling suddenly sounded.

The light emitted by the Impermanence Book Ring suddenly faded, and Concubine Yuan Mingfei's figure disappeared in an instant.

The co-pilot's door was opened, and a middle-aged man with cold features wrapped in a cold wind sat in.

Matsumoto Castle 100 households, leopard tail.

The person Li Jun is waiting for here today is exactly him.

The distant lights shone into the dimly lit car, reflecting two equally grim faces on the windshield.

"I didn't expect to see you here."

Leopard Tail stared ahead with both eyes and said with a smile: "Since you came to Matsumoto Castle, why don't you sit in the house and come to this kind of place instead?" ”

"I want to too, but it's a pity that Lord Qianhu doesn't have much time for me, so I can only do the things in front of me first, you won't mind if you have a leopard tail Baihu?"

"Of course not."

Leopard Tail laughed, "Yan Jun, you are now a celebrity in front of the eyes of the Thousand Households, and the things arranged by his old man are naturally the most important, you can understand." ”

"Where there are no red people, sinners are still the same. The blame for this is mine, and of course I have to deal with the aftermath. ”

Li Jun smiled wryly, and lifted a box of white brocade clothes in his right hand and handed it to Leopard Tail.

With a flick of the wrist, a cigarette bounced off the box.

"So this time, I hope you can help more with the Leopard Tail Hundred Households."

"Heh, this is a rare thing specially supplied by the Imperial Ministry of Industry to thousands of households, I didn't expect you to smoke it all, Yan Jun."

The leopard's tail sourly took out the cigarette, not holding the corner of his mouth, but twisting it between his fingers.

"We're all colleagues, and it's only natural to help. But there is one thing I still have to ask first, Yan Jun, where did you get the news from, is it a bit too outrageous? ”

"Jinyiwei has rules, I can't tell you the source. At this point, you have to bear with the leopard tail. ”

Yikes!

A cluster of fire lit up in the dimly lit carriage, and the orange flames cast a dappled shadow on the leopard's face.

Li Jun's action fell in the eyes of the leopard tail, which made him feel comfortable.

The Yan Jun in front of him now has a transcendent position in the Jinyi Guard of the Wa District, but it seems that he still understands the rules of the strong dragon not to suppress the head snake.

However, the leopard tail does not mean to put the cigarette butt on the corner of the mouth.

I saw him block the match handed over with his hand, and the expression on his face disappeared into the black shadow again.

"You have to keep the informant safe, of course I understand that."

Leopard Tail was puzzled: "But if your news is not accurate, Chu Ke, one of the three leaders under the command of the King of Kamakura, is not hiding in my territory. You and my brother are so excited, don't you want to become a laughing stock within Jinyiwei? ”

"What do you mean?"

Leopard Tail smiled: "What I mean, can you let me send someone in to check first, and then we will do it when the news is confirmed?" ”

Li Jun frowned slightly: "The people of Honghu have always been cautious, especially after the 'Edo Rebellion', they have completely lurked. If it continues to be delayed, I am worried that there will be variables, if Chu Ke smells the smell and runs away, who will bear this responsibility? ”

"You don't have to worry about Yan Jun, this is Matsumoto City, if Chu Ke really dares to lurk here without knowing whether he is alive or dead, then he will definitely not be able to escape."

Leopard Tail's tone was cold and hard: "But if I can't be sure whether the news is accurate, I will definitely not let my brothers rush to participate in it." At this point, please also take care of Yan Jun. ”

For the hidden thoughts in the leopard tail's heart, Li Jun is clear at a glance.

A leader of the Koko who participated in the rebellion with Edo, if he was really hiding in Matsumoto Castle, but the leopard tail who was the hundred households of Matsumoto Castle did not know it.

If this is known to Qianhu, it will be enough to convict him of dereliction of duty and incompetence. With Su Ce's temper, even if he doesn't take his official position on the spot, I'm afraid there will be no possibility of going further in the future.

Therefore, the leopard tail would rather take the risk of startling the snake and personally confirm whether the news is accurate.

At that time, the truth or falsity of Li Jun's news, whether Chu Ke is in Matsumoto City or not, will be decided by him.

The flame flickered and moved away from the leopard's tail.

Li Jun lowered his head, one hand protected the edge of the flame, and the orange tongue of fire ignited a fire point in front of him, and then slowly extinguished.

"I said it, you don't have to doubt the accuracy of the news, Chu Ke is hiding in the block in front."

When Leopard Tail heard this, his face suddenly became gloomy, and he said coldly: "Yan Jun, I support King Ming at the Xindan review meeting, and that is on a case-by-case basis. If you want to make trouble for me in the name of clearing out the Honghu like you did with Jiaomujiao, then I advise you to put out this thought. ”

"If you can't produce evidence, then don't fake it here!"

Yikes!

"It's really annoying to do this kind of thing with a hot face and a cold ass."

Li Jun laughed at himself, flicked his fingers, and the cigarette butt between his fingers drew an arc and hit the curb, exploding a dense spark.

He slowly stretched his waist and looked sideways at the leopard tail: "I'm going to fake the tiger today, do you have any opinions?" ”

The face is arrogant and domineering.

The cramped carriage suddenly set off an invisible chill that lingered in the heart of the leopard's tail.

In an instant, the leopard's tail stood on end. In the midst of the horror, he actually felt a heavy sense of oppression from Li Jun.

It's like facing Su Ce in a thousand households.

He was in Osaka Castle and killed Hyaknohe Shin-kun.

Leopard Tail realized it later, and suddenly remembered a rumor that had been circulating within Kinyiwei after the 'Edo Rebellion'.

But so what?

That Zhenjun was looking for death by himself, and he first colluded with Honghu in front, so Lord Qianhu would let Yan Jun kill him.

If you sit upright, do you dare to really do it with me?!

The leopard tail had a sharp thought in his heart, gritted his teeth violently, and straightened his neck: "I"

As soon as a word came out, it was directly interrupted by the whistling fist wind.

The leopard's tail's sternum was concave in an exaggerated amplitude, and the sound of the bones shattering was particularly clear in the confined space, and the seat beneath him also tore and collapsed with the harsh tearing sound.

Bang!

The body shook violently, and the four tires burst at the same time, and he collapsed on the side of the road.

"Poof!"

The leopard's tail vomited a large mouthful of blood, and the whole person lay on his back in a cold mechanical wreckage, his eyes hollow, and he fell into a brief trance.

When he came back to his senses, he only felt a trace of coldness close to his ears.

Before he could tell what was in his ears, the leopard's tail opened his eyes angrily, staring at the face above his head that could not be seen clearly.

"Yan Jun, you dare to make a move on your colleagues, do you know that this is a big crime in the Jinyi Guard?"

The leopard's face was blood-red and iron-blue, and the blood in his mouth continued to splash out as he spoke.

In response, all he received was a 'click' of the gun's spring.

"What are you going to do?!"

The leopard's tail pupils trembled, and at this moment he finally knew what the coldness in his ears came from.

His arms were bruised, and he struggled desperately. It's a pity that with the strength of his agricultural order, he can't break free from the foot that stepped on his chest.

"Among today's Jinyi Guards, how can there be such a simple hundred households as you? Well? ”

The body of Wei Wu's gun in Li Jun's hand was attached to the leopard's tail ear, and it sounded without hesitation.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The leopard's body stopped struggling, and the splatters of rubble cut the side of his face to blood, and a scarlet line of blood flowed out of his left ear, staining half of his shoulder blood-red.

"The people who called you have fenced this neighborhood for me, and if you lose a bird, then I will wonder if you are a collaborator. When the time comes, you will be no different from the true ruler of Osaka Castle. ”

Li Jun threw away Wei Wushu, who was emptying in his hand, patted the cuffs on both sides calmly, and raised his eyes to look at the brightly lit and lively neighborhood in the distance.

As far as the eye can see, there are countless crooked shanties and low buildings under the cover of the lights.

Empire-style signboards are crowded with carp streamers unique to the Japanese district, and wooden row houses are next to the top of a hilltop with blue bricks and blue tiles.

At the entrance of the block, there is a gatehouse welded from steel pipes, wrapped in dense luminous tubes, and the waves of greasy colors continue to surge back and forth. Two rusty chains hang a sign with three large characters written in plain language: Samurai Town.

Simple, dilapidated, and congested, but there is a fresh smoke and smoke that Li Jun is familiar with.

This neighborhood called Samurai Town is very similar to the Ji'e District in Chengdu County.

Li Jun followed the bustling flow of people through countless casinos, Goolan and Huangliang Dream Pavilion, and turned into an alley next to the main road.

It is the same as the chicken and goose area, but the two-zhang wide alleyway is crowded with people and vendors.

Mechanical prosthetics, brain cleverness, artificial organs from agricultural order enterprises. I don't know where to get it.,There are very heavy traces of artificial Daoji and Huigen.。 There is even a black mess where flesh and blood and machinery coexist.

These things are laid out on the ground in a grand manner, and they are left to passers-by to choose.

However, only the stalls selling prosthetic limbs, mechanical hearts, and artificial organs were stopped, but those Daoji and Huigen were not cared for at all.

This is not difficult to understand, after all, this is the Wa District, and the Huangliang Dream Realm of the Empire is not open here at all.

Even if you implant Daoji and Huigen, and step into the two sequences of Dao and Buddha, there is no possibility of promotion.

Li Jun strolled through it, a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, reminiscing about the past days on Jiulong Street in Chengdu Mansion.

Passing through this alley, the alleyway into which you turn into is even narrower, and on both sides are temporary shacks made of iron sheets, which are connected by black pressure, and the gaps between the houses are full of debris and garbage.

Li Jun stood still in front of a featureless shack, looked up at a red-eyed crow standing on the eaves, and picked his chin.

After a while, the door of the shed opened, and a huge barrel three fingers thick stretched out, directly in front of Li Jun's eyebrows.

"Who are you, what are you doing in front of my house?"

The man holding the gun was a young man with a flat head, his shirtless upper body was full of crappy remodeling, and the head of a man wearing a crown of heaven was tattooed on the shoulder of his right arm.

Li Jun raised his eyebrows, he knew this tattoo, it was Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youzhen.

"I'm looking for you."

"Looking for me? That's looking for death? ”

The young man sneered, and his index finger on the trigger was about to be pressed down.

Xiaobai's informant is a bit of a tiger

Li Jun suddenly reached out, and in the shocked gaze of the young man, he grabbed the barrel of the gun and folded it upward, twisting the unrecognizable firearm into a ball of scrap metal.

"I came from Inuyama, and it was your cousin who asked me to come to you."

"I don't know what cousin you're talking about, but you have the strength, you can be my own father."

The young man's expression was strange, his eyes were calm, but his face was full of fear and surprise.

"If you don't believe me, check this out."

Li Jun threw his brocade guard waist card over, "There is a dynamic key linking the empire's 'Punishment Realm' and Beizhen Fusi on it." But I advise you not to try it here. ”

In fact, Li Jun didn't have to say the follow-up words at all, because this flat-headed young man had already been stunned in place the moment he took the Jinyi Wei waist card, staring at the waist card in his hand with straight eyes, and kept muttering to himself.

", there's really a daddy."
