In the middle of nowhere, in a remote part of the border city, this is an abandoned temple, surrounded by wild grass, even the incense burner.

Looking down from here, you can see most of the border cities. The sunset did not enter the distant mountains in front of the red dyed half of the sky, and a red glow shrouded the border city, which was very desolate and charming.

In front of the temple, under a locust tree, a man wearing a black face and a mask sat on the root of the locust tree's bare ground, looking down the road from time to time, as if waiting for someone.

After a long time, there was the sound of footsteps below, and Liu Zhen stepped on the steps leading to the temple, and saw the person waiting for him under the locust tree wearing a mask. His expression became a little displeased, and standing a few meters away from the mask, Liu Zhen remained on guard, and his big hand never left the hilt of the sword. The sweat on the palms of the hands is a little slippery, and a little exertion will make a discordant sound.

The masked man sat still, and through the mask, he saw his lips squirming, and a voice came immediately: "Lord Liu is very punctual, but it seems to be a little hostile!"

The voice behind the mask carried a faint coldness, Liu Zhen took a deep breath, and replied to the masked man: "There is no hostility, it's just that Your Excellency asked me to meet, but I am wearing a mask, this is a little inappropriate, right?"

"Hahaha" The masked man let out a sneer, reached out to untie the mask rope behind him, and when the mask fell to the ground, he slowly stood up and limped towards Liu Zhen. At this time, Liu Zhen's face was shocked, and the lame man in front of him was the chief doctor of the Frontier Protection Camp that he was familiar with.

"Doctor?" Liu Zhen said with a furrow of disbelief.

Everyone knows that there are doctors who have lived in the general camp for decades, and I heard that he was exiled by the royal family, and no one has seen him walk out of the barracks.

But the person in front of him at this time is indeed the doctor himself. Why did he ask himself to come here? Could it have something to do with the murder in the city guard barracks in the afternoon? But he was just a doctor...... In just a few moments, Liu Zhen thought about several possibilities in his heart, but he still couldn't believe that this afternoon's incident had something to do with the doctor in front of him.

At this time, the doctor had already walked in front of him, staring at Liu Zhen with those sharp eyes, as if he had judged the doctor he usually saw, and looked at Liu Zhen who was a little nervous with a faint evil smile on the corner of his mouth, and reached out to pat him on the shoulder. It looked light and casual, but Liu Zhen felt all the heaviness, the strength of his own Sword Venerable realm, when the doctor gently patted his shoulder, his legs involuntarily trembled slightly, and his whole body suddenly felt weak.

"Lord Liu, since you have taken off your mask, it shows that I can trust you, and today's incident is what I did!"

The doctor's words were like thunder, and Liu Zhen was covered in cold sweat at this time, and the sweat rolling down his forehead flowed into his eyes, and there was a spicy feeling. Raising his hand to wipe away the sweat, Liu Zhen's voice trembled a little, and he didn't dare to look at Mo Qian: "Doctor, why is this?"

"I was originally a medical apprentice, and I am considered a genius in the royal family. When he was exiled to this, he couldn't leave the border city for eternity. All these years I have been alive because of my legs. Mo Qian's face was angry but sad.

Liu Zhen's feet were like being nailed to the ground, and he didn't dare to move away at all, and the aura exuding from Mo Qian's body was much stronger than his own. Until he was forced to do so, Liu Zhen did not dare to act rashly. At this time, I didn't know what to say, but I still stubbornly asked, "What is the doctor going to do next?"

"Hehe, hahaha......" Mo Qian was inexplicably rhapsed again, and continued around Liu Zhen: "Mu Xiao, this son, I was bad a month ago

It's a good thing, I suddenly came to the border city today, I'm afraid there is an ulterior secret in it, I want you to help me keep a good watch on him, don't let him leave the stone cave half a step. ”

"Is it ...... bad for you?"

Liu Zhen thought about the rebellion in the Xinjiang Barracks a month ago, and he couldn't calm down anymore, he took a few steps back, and became a little angry and looked at Mo Qian: "The conspiracy a month ago was actually planned by you?"

"Yes, He has been loyal to the royal family for three years, and he does not enter oil and salt. Over the years, I had to secretly cultivate Li Baiya and want to replace him. It's hateful that he was messed up by Mu Xiao's guy. Mo Qian clasped his fingers together and looked Liu Zhen up and down: "You have been in business for a few years, and you will not be promoted in the past three years, but Han Yu from Shayan has become a deputy general all of a sudden, and you have no red eyes during this period?"

When Liu Zhen heard this, although he knew that this was a trick of the Mo Qian, his expectations for power were more than just the position of a thousand-commander. Of course, it must not be shown easily, so he pretended to be calm and said: I Liu Zhen has little ambition, and now that the position of commander has made me satisfied, if the doctor has nothing else to do, I will go back first. We haven't seen that today.

As he spoke, Liu Zhen was about to turn around and leave, but Mo Qian's voice behind him came again, and it became even colder at this time: "Lord Liu, are you willing to be a thousand commanders in the branch camp for a lifetime? As long as we cooperate, in the near future, you will be the number one in the border city, enjoying endless glory and wealth, are you not tempted at all?"

As for Mu Xiao, since he didn't do it, then fulfill Liu's promise and let him go. At a critical time, Liu Zhen still held the last trace of the bottom line.

Although the Mo Qian in front of him is very strong, this place is not far from the barracks, and if he makes a move, it will soon attract people's attention.

Of course, Mo Qian also knew that killing Liu Zhen in front of him was not as simple as killing Lu Meng and them in the afternoon, and those people in the afternoon were a disgraceful sneak attack, if it was normal, it would not be a matter of two hits to deal with Lu Meng. Although the illusion he exuded just now somewhat frightened Liu Zhen, once the effect of the medicine passed, Liu Zhen's physical strength would be restored, and if there was a real conflict at that time, it would definitely not be cheap.

After thinking about it for a while, Mo Qian smiled bitterly: "If Lord Liu is like this, I don't have anything to say, of course, I have to remind Lord Liu, if Mu Xiao walks out of the stone cave, I'm afraid that the Xinjiang Protection Sub-camp will cause a lot of trouble." Just like Lu Meng and them today, it is impossible to say that they will suddenly disappear in the tent without a sound, so I advise Lord Liu to wait for a few days. ”

"Hmph!" Liu Zhen snorted coldly and walked down the mountain.

At this time, Mo Qian, who was standing at the door of the temple, raised his hand and stuffed a pill into his mouth, and then put the remaining two black pills in his hand back into the bottle, sighing and muttering: "There are only two, if this guy Liu Zhen lets Mu Xiao go before He returns in the third year, it will be a big deal." ”

It was night, the lights of the border city were flickering one after another, and the flow of people on Niluo Street began to increase, Jiang Qiaoqiao and Yi Ling did not intend to enjoy the night scene of Niluo Street, but hurried to the back.

"Qiaoqiao, according to the soldier's description, this should be Lord Taidong's home from here," Yi Ling said, standing at the entrance of the alley, pointing to the quiet alley in front of him.

It took more than two hours for the two of them to come here all the way from the city guard barracks. At this time, I suddenly remembered that the two of them were a little dirty, and just when they were frowning, an obscene voice came from behind: "Two beauties, this big night is here."

It's a place to hang around, but it's very dangerous, why don't you find a place to talk to you?

The two looked back, and two men in their thirties were looking at each other, their eyes full of color, so obscene that they couldn't be described.

Yi Ling strode towards the two men and circled around them. The two men were happy in their hearts: "Look at how familiar this girl is, let's go! ”

One of the big men put one hand on Yi Ling, Yi Ling flashed lightly, and said with a coquettish appearance: "People don't like to go to crowded places!"

"Okay, then it's up to you where to go. As long as you are happy, gold is not a problem!" A big man laughed, as if he was eating Yi Ling and Jiang Qiaoqiao's feelings.

"It's not far away, it's where we live, safe!" Yi Ling said in a coquettish voice, pointing to the dim alley ahead.

Jiang Qiaoqiao, who was standing on the side, listened to Yi Ling's words, goosebumps grew all over her body instantly, I really don't know when Yi Ling learned this set.

Yi Ling walked in front to lead the way, and the two men were defenseless, and they didn't feel something was right until there were some dark alleys: "Girl, it's not good to bring us to this kind of place, if it's dark, it's ......"

Smack

Before the big man could finish speaking, his stamina was slashed and he fainted. The other was also knocked unconscious by Jiang Qiaoqiao in the corner, and the two tacitly tossed on the big man, and when they walked out of the alley after a while, they were already dressed as two men, but their clothes were a little loose.

"Yi Ling, where did you learn all that just now, why are you so disgusting!" Jiang Qiaoqiao looked at Yi Ling's back and asked. At this time, the loose clothes made her have to lift them up with her hands.

Yi Ling turned around and smiled dumbly: "I said you, your clothes are so loose, you won't tie your belt?"

"The belts are tied to the two of them!" Jiang Qiaoqiao replied helplessly, he wanted to clean it up and then go to Taidong's house, seeing that he couldn't wear this dress anymore. He took off his clothes and threw them aside.

Yi Ling also had no choice but to follow suit, and finally got two men's clothes, but he couldn't use them, and then he looked at Jiang Qiaoqiao with some complaints and said, "What now?"

"Let's go like this, if it's dirty, it's dirty!" Jiang Qiaoqiao replied.

After walking in the forest for a few days, my clothes were already dirty. There are a lot of people who buy clothes on Niluo Street, but there are many people there, and I wanted to go to a remote place to change, but there were no shops all the way, all of them were private houses, and now I can only go to Taidong's house like this.

The two walked along the alley for about two hundred meters, and finally saw the courtyard of the house that the guards said, which was brightly lit, and a woman was playing with a child in the courtyard.

The two guards at the door saw Jiang Qiaoqiao and Yi Ling approaching, and the two stepped forward to stop them together. One of the guards looked at it and said, "Where is the name Hanako, hurry up, you can't get close here." ”

Yi Ling was furious when he heard this: "Behind your eyes and buttocks, is there such a beautiful flower child?"

Jiang Qiaoqiao looked even more calm, stopped Yi Ling and said to the guards with a smile: "We are here to find Lord Tai, by the way, we are friends of Mu Xiao!"

"Mu Xiao's friend, I heard that he killed several people in the city guard barracks in the afternoon, and Lord Taidong has already rushed back, since you are accomplices, then don't think about leaving!" said the guard, squandering his broadsword.
