Choice is something that we have to face every day in life, and there are gains and losses when there is a choice. Every choice means giving up something when you get it, but not everyone can choose to have a clear conscience.

Money, power, status, etc., not everyone can be distracted when facing them, and to a greater or lesser extent, they will affect the final choice of their heart. It cannot be said that every choice is right and wrong, because everyone has the right to choose independently, but not all choices can be made without regrets.

Longmen Town is still the same as before, the streets are full of caravans coming and going, people come and go, and it seems that there will never be a quiet and leisurely day. The fight that happened last night didn't seem to attract much attention, and people continued to live their lives as usual.

In a guest room on the second floor of an inn, Wuxin sat on a chair by the window, looking through the window at the crowd coming and going below, looking for the person who had not appeared for a long time.

Several days have passed, and according to what Zhan Ying said in his heart, Gong Jiu should be almost there, either today or tomorrow, he has sent all the "shadows" out, hiding in various parts of Longmen Town, monitoring every move in the town, and if he finds a suspicious person, he will come back immediately to report.

Wuxin suddenly felt that he seemed to be more and more dependent on them, no longer like when he was alone before, this habit is not good, it is time to control and control, he knows that people can't rely too much on others.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, the day is almost gone, and the sun has lazily moved to the edge of the sky, and soon it will be dark. The streets are starting to run thin, and some caravans that haven't been cleared out are still using this last bit of time to shout, hoping to make a lot of money before the sun goes down.

A whole day passed, and none of the thirteen "shadows" came back to report, and it seemed that nothing had been found. Wuxin shook his head, a little anxious in his heart.

This trip to Yanmen Pass is likely to find out some unknown things about the Xianwang Mansion, and I don't care about it very much, looking forward to Gong Jiu appearing sooner.

Just as he shook his head unintentionally, a team of people and horses stepped on the last trace of afterglow before sunset and slowly walked through the street, more than a dozen people, a dozen horses, at a glance, they knew that they had just arrived in Longmen Town. They didn't look like caravans, because there were weapons hidden on the horses under each of them, and although they were well hidden, they were unintentionally discovered.

Perhaps because the wind and sand here are too strong, these people all wrapped themselves tightly and covered their heads with black veils. The sun was about to set, but this group of people didn't seem to have the idea of stopping to rest, and they didn't even look at the inn sign next to the street, it seemed that this was not their destination, but went directly to the south gate of Longmen Town.

Looking at this group of suspicious people, a smile appeared on the corner of Wuxin's mouth, he knew that the person he was waiting for had finally come, although he hadn't found Gong Jiu yet, but he was sure that Gong Jiu was hidden among those people. Seeing that the group of people walked in the direction of the south gate one after another, disappearing from sight, the unintentional smile deepened, and the anxiety in his heart disappeared.

It didn't take long for Leng who was lurking in the town to come back, and after seeing Wuxin, he bowed and said slowly: "I found a group of suspicious people going in the direction of Yanmen Palace." ”

Wuxin nodded and said lightly: "Got it, send someone to keep an eye on them." "Since it's a secret investigation, you can't go in blatant daylight, and you have no intention of acting after nightfall tonight.

Leng nodded and slowly retreated.

After Leng left, Wuxin slowly stood up, walked to the side of the bed and lay down, and slowly closed his eyes, since he knew that Gong Jiu had arrived, there was no need to be anxious. I don't know what to expect tonight, so I'm going to recharge my batteries first.

The sun soon set, and night fell again. The moon seemed to be extraordinarily round and bright tonight, and it seemed that he had forgotten what happened in the alley last night, but he didn't know that tonight would be a hundred times more dangerous than ever.

Finally, there was no movement on the streets, and people had returned to their inns or homes, and the whole Longmen Town seemed unusually quiet, and the silence was unusual.

Wuxin, who was lying on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes, looked at the roof and paused for a moment, then slowly sat up, moved his muscles, slowly pushed the door open and walked out, he felt that it was time to prepare to go.

When I walked near the south gate, a dark shadow slowly came out of the darkness, it was cold. Seeing Wuxin approaching, he bent over coldly and said slowly: "There is news from the front, that group of people have entered the Yanmen Palace, and it can be determined that they are the people from the Xianwang Mansion." ”

"Okay, let's go. Wuxin responded lightly, and took the lead in the direction of Yanmen Palace, and Leng also hurriedly followed.

Along the way, there will be a "shadow" person hiding in the dark at intervals, and there are constantly people converging with Wuxin and Leng. Looking at these people who kept popping up, a smile appeared on the corner of Wuxin's mouth, it turned out that they were using this way to deliver news.

At this time, the Yanmen Palace, the lights are still brilliant, and there seem to be more people patrolling than before, perhaps because of the suspicious thing that happened last night, so the vigilance has been strengthened.

There seemed to be guests here tonight, and there were two tables of guests sitting in a hall, and the people at one of the tables were covered in dust, and it seemed that they had been in a hurry for a long time, and each of them had a black veil on their shoulders to cover their faces, and their status seemed to be relatively low, sitting in the nearest place to the door, no one spoke, and they were all eating slowly with their heads bowed.

There were only three people sitting at the other table, one of whom was burly, and he was wearing a golden armor when eating, showing the domineering spirit of the king in his gestures. The other man was dressed in a green power suit, with a cold, angular face, and an aura very similar to that of the man in the golden armor.

The rest of the man looked to be the lowest-ranking of the three, with a respectful and somewhat cautious demeanor, and he also had a black veil on his shoulder, and the face that was exposed had no expression on it, and his face was like ashes.

I saw the man in the golden armor shaking his head and drinking a glass of wine, and then looked at the middle-aged man with a dead face and said slowly: "How is King Xian lately?"

The middle-aged man with a dead face hugged his fists and said softly: "Thank you for your concern, King Xian is very good, but there has been a rising star in the rivers and lakes recently, and he is always looking for trouble with the prince. ”

"Oh, who is so bold as to dare to run to the Xian King's Mansion to spread wild?" the man in the golden armor laughed twice and asked curiously. The young man in a green suit sitting next to him glanced at the middle-aged man with a dead face, and a sneer appeared on his face.

The middle-aged man with a dead face glanced at the young man with a sneer on his face, looked at the man in armor and said slowly: "This person's name is Blood Knife Wuxin, I wonder if the prince has heard of it?"

As soon as the middle-aged man's words fell, before the man in armor could speak, the green-clothed young man next to him suddenly frowned, looked at the middle-aged man and asked suspiciously: "Are you talking about the bloody knife that fought Red Feather alone and killed six of the seven masters on the Red Feather Killer List with his own strength?"

The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "What the young general said is right, it is this person." Obviously, he didn't expect that the name of the Blood Knife could spread to such a remote place.

Hearing the middle-aged man's answer, the young man showed a trace of excitement on his face, and said coldly: "I really hope that he will make trouble, just let me meet him for a while, I see if he is really unfathomable or your Central Plains martial arts are all some wine bags and rice bags." When he said this, a hint of competitive desire appeared on his face, and there was a hint of arrogance.

"Cheng Bi! The man in the golden armor glared at the young man in green and said in a deep voice, obviously thinking that the young man in green was a little rude when he said it, but he only glared at it, and he didn't really blame it.

This person who wears gold armor even when he eats is none other than the master of this palace, the king of Yanmen, and the general who commands the 100,000 troops at the border pass. Just by looking at his appearance, he can know that he is an arrogant person, but because he has guarded the border for many years, he has become murderous and ruthless.

And the young man in the green power suit is the young general Hu Yan Chengbi, who grew up freely in the barracks, and began to fight on the battlefield with his father when he was young, and he is a ruthless person, arrogant, with no one in his eyes, except for his father, no one cares about him.

Because he loved to learn martial arts since he was a child, his father often invited some masters inside and outside the gate to the palace, and carefully trained Huyan Chengbi, so that Huyan Chengbi's martial arts continued to rise, and gradually even the master who taught him martial arts was not his opponent, and it was slowly difficult to find someone who could serve as his master.

Because he has always been full of yearning for the Central Plains martial arts, he knows more about some of the things that happen on the rivers and lakes, if it wasn't for Huyan Zhulie to stop him, he would have run to the Central Plains martial arts to show his skills.

"Lord Wang, I think it's better for us to be cautious, this person's martial arts are indeed unfathomable, if he really comes to make trouble, I'm afraid it will be very unfavorable to our plans, and King Xian doesn't want the agreement between us to be known by outsiders too early. The middle-aged man turned his head sideways, approached Huyan Zhulie, and said softly, with a cautious expression.

Before Huyan Zhulie could speak, Huyan Chengbi on the side had already spoken, only to see his face gloomy, and he looked at the middle-aged man coldly and said: "The surname Gong, if you are so afraid of him, then you can get out of Yanmen Pass, this is not a place for people to be wild, and you don't need your guidance on how to do things in Yanmen Palace!"

Just as Hu Yan Chengbi's words fell, more than a dozen black-clothed people sitting at the door not far away stood up almost at the same time, looking at the green-clothed young man coldly, as if they were ready to make a move.

The middle-aged man who saw this scene immediately waved his hand, looked at the dozen subordinates with a pale face and said, "It's none of your business, sit down!" The dozen or so black-clothed people heard the middle-aged man's words and slowly sat back.

Immediately afterwards, the middle-aged man hurriedly hugged Huyan Zhulie and Huyan Chengbi, with a hint of apology on his face, and said softly: "Lord, prince, my subordinates are not sensible, I hope you two will not be surprised." ”

Huyan Zhulie waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's okay, since you are here on behalf of King Xian, you are the guests of the Yanmen Palace, and you are the godson of this king." Although he had a smile on his face, there was obviously a hint of anger in his words, as if he was warning the middle-aged man not to have a next time.

This is still for the sake of King Xian's face, otherwise he would have had a seizure, in his eyes, the middle-aged man in front of him can sit on an equal footing with himself and eat at the same table is already a great favor, how can he allow him to be so presumptuous in front of him, and dare to use the Seven Sage Kings to suppress himself.

The middle-aged man hurriedly nodded, said yes again and again, and then reached out and took out a letter from his arms, handed it to Huyan Zhulie's hand, and said softly: "This is a letter written by King Xian himself, I hope that the prince will make a decision as soon as possible." ”

Huyan Zhulie put the letter away, smiled and said, "Tonight is just for Brother Gong, don't talk about business, and I'll talk about the rest later." As he spoke, he picked up a glass of wine and drank it all.

When the middle-aged man heard this, his face showed a trace of embarrassment, and he opened his mouth to say something, but he heard Hu Yan Chengbi on the side speak again.

"Who is it?!, who dares to trespass into the Yanmen Palace!" Huyan Chengbi said loudly, and at the same time rushed out like lightning. The middle-aged man and Huyan Zhulie were taken aback at the same time, they didn't know what was going on, and hurriedly followed, the two of them were talking patronizing just now, and they didn't pay attention to the movements around them.

I saw a figure just fall from the roof of the house, and was about to rush towards the outside of the palace, but suddenly dozens of archers rushed out of the shadows, and at the same time pulled their bows and arrows, and pointed at the black figure that suddenly appeared.

When the black shadow saw the archers who suddenly appeared, he immediately frowned, stopped, and stood motionless in the courtyard, as if he didn't expect so many archers to be hidden in the dark.

The black cloak couldn't hide the pitch-black knife in his hand, a person, a knife, was facing away from Hu Yan Chengbi and the others who had just rushed out of the house......
