The moment Zhang Peng stepped out of the Valley of No Return, it was the beginning of his career in the rivers and lakes, and Zhang Peng still remembered the last time he went out of the valley, he was so small and fragile. But now he is completely different, after eleven years, he already has the capital to break into the rivers and lakes, and after that, no one can play with him like an ant.

And when Zhang Peng came out of the valley, he already had a clear goal, that is, to find his good brother who was born and died in the Liu Mansion with him eleven years ago, Zhang Jie. In the past eleven years, Zhang Jie's figure has always lingered in his mind, especially that night, this brother, who had known each other for less than a few days, actually gave up his life to win precious escape time for himself. Although eleven years have passed, I don't know if Zhang Jie is still alive, but there are some things that need to be explained!

Maple Leaf City.

It only took Zhang Peng a day to rush from the Valley of No Return to Maple Leaf City. It's just that at this time, Maple Leaf City has already been a thing or a person, and Zhang Peng is also full of emotion in his heart, the current Maple Leaf City is much more lively and prosperous than eleven years ago.

Zhang Peng put away the emotion in his heart and strode into the city. Nowadays, the streets and alleys in the city are not much different from those in those years, and there are some vendors along the streets, and most of the pedestrians on the road are from the rivers and lakes. At this time, Zhang Peng came to the place where he was almost collided by Liu Yuan's horse, and remembered that if it wasn't for Zhang Jie's appearance at that time, I am afraid that he would have died here.

At this time, Zhang Peng is no longer the immature child he was back then. He clearly knew that his first task was to inquire about the things at that time and the current situation of the Liu Mansion. Zhang Peng walked and walked, and suddenly saw two big characters of hired workers hanging on the door of a shop, which instantly reminded him of Sun Fu and his father and son who had helped him at the beginning, but when he thought that he and Zhang Jie had done such a big job, they might also be affected by Sun Fu and them, and he couldn't help but feel a trace of guilt in his heart.

Looking at the sign of the hired worker in front of him, Zhang Peng couldn't help but think about whether he could use the same way to infiltrate Liu's Mansion again? Thinking of this, Zhang Peng showed a wicked smile and strode towards the store.

At this time, there was only a middle-aged man who seemed to be in his forties in the store, who was clearing the account books in his hand at the counter, and there were two guys on the side, wiping the tables and chairs and cleaning. The middle-aged man felt that someone had entered the store, and immediately raised his head, and when he saw Zhang Peng, who was dressed plainly, he immediately lost interest, lowered his head and continued to calculate the accounts in his hand, and asked lightly, "Is there something wrong?"

Zhang Peng didn't care about the shopkeeper's attitude, and said with a smile: "Shopkeeper, don't you want to hire a worker? It just so happens that I want to find a job, it doesn't matter how much the salary is, as long as I can fill my stomach." As he spoke, Zhang Peng's stomach was still very cooperative, and he screamed twice.

Hearing Zhang Peng's words, the shopkeeper slowly raised his head, looked at it carefully, and then said lightly: "Where are you from? Why have I never seen you?"

Zhang Peng said: "This is the first time the kid has come to this Maple Leaf City, and he fled from a small village in the Southern Wilderness, and you also know that the Southern Wilderness is famine at this time, and those of us who are able-bodied escaped just to make ends meet." ”

The shopkeeper walked out slowly, spared Zhang Peng for a turn, patted his shoulder and arm with his hand, and said with a smile: "I can't see it, your body is still quite tough." I can introduce you to an errand, but in terms of wages..."

When Zhang Peng heard this, he immediately felt that there was a play, and hurriedly said: "Shopkeeper, you can just look at this salary, as long as you can eat enough!"

"Don't worry, your stomach won't be hungry. In this way, I'll ask the guy to make you something to eat first, and then you'll go wash up, and I'll take you to Liu's Mansion to report. The shopkeeper said with a smile.

"Liu Fu?" Zhang Peng pretended to be puzzled.

"This Liu Mansion is the largest and most powerful mansion in our Maple Leaf City. The owner of Liu's Mansion is called Liu Qingfeng, forget it, you don't know if you are an outsider. Listen to me, fill your stomach first, then wash up, and I'll take you to see. The shopkeeper looked at Zhang Peng and said with some disdain.

"Okay, good!" Zhang Peng was happy in his heart, and secretly said in his heart: It really takes no effort to come here.

Subsequently, after eating a few white-flour steamed buns prepared by the guy and then washing up, the shopkeeper led Zhang Peng to Liu's mansion. At this time, the Liu Mansion has expanded a lot compared to that year, and it has obviously been renovated later. Just like back then, Zhang Peng was also led by the shopkeeper into it through the side door. After communicating with a burly middle-aged man after the shopkeeper, Zhang Peng became a member of the Liu Mansion Nursing Hospital. What I have to do every day is to patrol the three courtyards of this Liu Mansion, which is relatively easy. And Zhang Peng's name was changed to Liu, as before, and his name was Liu Dao. The place where Zhang Peng lived was arranged in a small wooden house in the middle courtyard, and with him, there was an old guard named Liu Shui. At first, the old guard still wanted to bully Zhang Peng, a newcomer, but he never thought that he would be beaten by Zhang Peng all over the ground to find his teeth. You must know that this Liu Shui is a few years older than Zhang Peng.

In the evening

Zhang Peng and Liu Shui began to patrol the house, and the two chatted without a word.

"Brother Dao, I think that according to your skills, even being a guest of this Liu Mansion is more than enough, why do you want to be a guard. Liu Shui patted his ass and said.

Zhang Peng smiled and said: "With my skills, it's okay to deal with people like you, but if I meet a master, I'm afraid I'll have to take a break." ”

"How can it, how can there be any masters in this Maple Leaf City, haven't those masters been recruited by the Liu Mansion. Liu Shui said disdainfully.

Zhang Peng is also noncommittal about this. In this Maple Leaf City, I'm afraid only this Liu Qingfeng can handle it. Although Liu Yuan's skill is not low, but for the kind of person who likes to eat, drink and have fun, I am afraid that his kung fu has already been stranded. And the most powerful among the Keqing, Li Yi, the deadly flying knife, was also seen by himself back then. These people are in their own hands, and they are no longer qualified to face them squarely.

"How long have you been in Liu's Mansion?" Zhang Peng asked casually.

Liu Shui returned: "It's been almost four years, it's not long, it's not short." ”

"Four years, then you should know Liu Mansion very well. ”

Hearing this, Liu Shui smiled and began to boast again: "Hey, Brother Dao, although I have only been in the Liu Mansion for less than four years, but my Lao Tzu was also a person in this Liu Mansion before, and I Liu Shui dare not say anything else, but if I want to talk about this Liu Mansion, I really know almost everything." ”

When Zhang Peng heard this, he slowly stopped, looked at Liu Shui and smiled: "Oh, you really know everything?"

Liu Shui suddenly patted his chest.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Peng said slowly: "Then do you know that in the eleventh year, the dragon and phoenix jade pendant in the Liu Mansion was stolen?"

Hearing Zhang Peng's words, Liu Shui was slightly stunned, and then looked at him with an expression of looking at a monster, his eyes unblinking.

Zhang Peng was a little uncomfortable by Liu Shui's eyes, then touched his face, and asked suspiciously: "Why are you looking at me like this?

"Brother Dao, you're not kidding me, are you?" Liu Shui said.

"Hmm, why do you say that?" Zhang Peng was puzzled.

Liu Shui slowly approached Zhang Peng and whispered in his ear: "More than ten years ago, the theft of Liu's Mansion was such a big thing, and the entire Maple Leaf City was already well known. Didn't you knowingly ask and make fun of me? ”

Zhang Peng hurriedly took a few small steps back, distanced himself from Liu Shui, plucked his ears and said, "If you know, you know, why are you so quiet." ”

Liu Shui sighed and said slowly: "Brother Dao, you are an outsider, so it is understandable that you are not clear about this matter. Let me tell you, after the Liu Mansion was stolen back then, the Liu Mansion was very busy, it was a lockdown again, and it was sending people to find out the whereabouts of the thieves. And when the old man came back from the Dragon Villa, he was even more furious. Or even an order, if anyone mentions it in the future... My life is in jeopardy. ”

"It's that serious. Zhang Peng said indifferently.

"Not really. This Liu Mansion is a well-known existence in Maple Leaf City after all. The theft of Liu's Mansion was even done by two seven or eight-year-old children, which undoubtedly gave Liufu a shave on his ears and made Liu's Mansion lose face. So, Brother Dao, listen to me, it's better to discuss this matter less in the future. Liu Shui said solemnly, even with a hint of fear on his face.

Hearing this, Zhang Peng undoubtedly became even more worried in his heart. At the beginning, Zhang Jie covered himself to escape, but in the end, he must have been caught by Li Yi who was chasing. And this incident made Liu Qingfeng so angry, according to the style of the people of Liu's mansion, Zhang Jie is afraid that his life is really worried.

"What else do you know? Zhang Peng's face suddenly became gloomy. Even the tone of his voice became a little cold. Although he and Zhang Jie have only known each other for more than ten days, the experience of experiencing life and death together is unforgettable.

"Brother Dao, you...."Seeing Zhang Peng's expression, Liu Shui instantly felt that this matter might have something to do with him. After looking around and finding that there was no one, he pulled Zhang Peng to the corner of the side, hesitated for a while, seemed to have made up his mind, slowly spoke, and said in a low voice: "Brother Dao, the two people who stole the dragon and phoenix jade pendant of Liu Mansion back then were captured by Keqing Li Yi, but they did not find the lost dragon and phoenix jade pendant on their body, no matter how the people of Liu Mansion tortured him, that person was silent. Later, I heard that ,...."

"What did you hear!" Zhang Peng said hurriedly.

"Finally... In the end, I heard that the person who was captured was beaten to death by the master who returned to Liu's mansion, and his body was thrown in the woods. ”

"Bang!"

As soon as Liu Shui's words were finished. Zhang Peng couldn't control the anger in his heart anymore, and slapped his palm on a rock behind him, and the rock suddenly fell apart. Zhang Peng's eyes were cold, and terrifying killing intent slowly poured out from his body. Liu Shui, who was beside him, felt the biting cold, and suddenly stumbled and fell to the ground, his body couldn't stop trembling, and he looked at Zhang Peng with horror in his eyes.

"Knives... Brother Dao..."Liu Shui shouted tremblingly.

After a long time, Zhang Peng calmed down his emotions, and a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, which made Liu Shui on the ground feel very frightened.

"Okay! Okay, you Liu Fu! actually take my Zhang Peng's words as child's play!" Zhang Peng said coldly.

After listening to this, Liu Shui on the ground suddenly understood, looked at Zhang Peng and exclaimed: "Knife.. Brother Dao, are you the kid who escaped back then? Is that Zhang Peng who released cruel words to keep Liu's chickens and dogs behind?"
