In the dark night, the moon is accompanied by black clouds, and there is a mountain cliff in Gwangju with the inscription "Black Wind Cliff" on the wall. It's a strange place, sometimes it's frighteningly quiet, sometimes it's a remnant cry and a strange birdsong, and it's so remote that people who don't know it.

A dark shadow flashed over the edge of the cliff, and it was not clear what it was, but when the black shadow came inside, it could be seen that it was a huge fortress, brightly lit and well guarded, and this was the place of the Thieves' Alliance.

The black shadow was a man, dressed like a guard, and he said the same slogan to the gatekeepers, and went in.

The top of the fortress is called "Jade Pavilion", and there is a man in the age of a sixtieth year, with a very thin beard, tied hair, and clothes that seem to be noble. At this time, the person who came asked to see him, and after calling in, he knelt on the ground and arched his hand, "Alliance leader!

"What kind of news?" said the man who called the leader of the alliance casually, presumably it must be the one who joined the sky.

"It's news from Wang Yang and others!".

"Oh, tell me..."Zhang Hetian still didn't care.

"Then Wang Yang has been moving a lot these days, maybe he has to do something...".

"Hmph, it's just a rat crossing the street, what can you do."

"But...".

"Say!".

"Recently, Wang Yang has a newcomer...".

"Who?".

"Han Shengchen...".

After Zhang Hetian listened, he didn't speak immediately, but just fell into deep thought, and after a while, he said slowly: "Hmm... Wang Yang's old man was able to find the world's first thief... It seems that the matter of the Western Regions Mausoleum Palace is going to be a little complicated...".

"Alliance leader... Why don't you let me kill him?".

"Don't be reckless, Han Shengchen is famous for his martial arts in the rivers and lakes, and he also has a phoenix on his body, if you go, I'm afraid there will be more than lucky."

"Then what should we do? Let him join Wang Yang and go to the Western Regions Mausoleum Palace?".

"No, if you want to break him, you must observe for a while, and you should step back first, and then I will have my own way."

"Yes...".

The man left the jade pavilion, came to the courtyard, took off his hat, and showed a man, not very old, with bright white skin, his eyes were very cold, and his expression was cold, as if he didn't like to laugh, but he was handsome. His name is Zhang Qian, his birth date is unknown, taciturn, like a ghost, in fact, the strongest is his secret weapon, which is in the competition, if it is used, it can be compared with the secret weapon gate Tangmen, of course, his theft is even more powerful, but he is low-key in the rivers and lakes, and there are few deeds about him. Maybe it's intentional, or not.

"Ah, father-in-law?" Zhu Ling and Han Shengchen were still on the top of the mountain outside the cave, and Zhu Ling screamed in surprise after hearing Han Shengchen say about what he had with Wang Yang.

"Yes, I will be filial to my father-in-law in the future!" Han Shengchen said firmly, with a serious face.

"Okay, why do you keep a straight face and smile" Zhu Ling pinched Han Shengchen's face with her hand, unscrupulous.

Shisheng was lying on the tree on the edge of the cliff, and when he saw the two of them like this, he felt unhappy in his heart, and mocked: "Hmph, I don't know where a shameless one came to recognize his father!"

"Hey, Brother Shisheng, what do you mean by this?" Han Shengchen was also a little unhappy, "If there is anything Han can't get by, I hope to tell you."

Shi Sheng snorted coldly, jumped down from the tree, landed steadily, walked in front of Han Shengchen, and looked at him: "It's still the first thief in the world, I think you must have bought it in this name."

"You...."Before Han Shengchen finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhu Ling: "How can you talk about people like this!"

"Zhu Ling, don't believe this liar, be careful of what tricks he uses to poison you one day, go, let's go elsewhere!" Shisheng said that he wanted to pull Zhu Ling away, and Zhu Ling immediately slapped his hand away.

"If you want to go, you can go by yourself," Zhu Ling looked at Shisheng with her chin up, ".. Anyway... Anyway, I'm going to stay with Han Shengchen!".

Seeing this, Zhu Ling smiled and took Han Shengchen's hand, Han Shengchen said: "Hey, how can you say such things to your senior brother."

"I don't care, it's better to stay with you than with him anyway, and since you came, I've always kept a straight face in my life."

"Oh?".

Zhu Ling saw Han Shengchen's puzzled face, and said with a big grin: "Oh, you just ignore him, go, I'll take you to a place."

"Go... Where to go?".

Zhu Ling didn't answer, just took Han Shengchen's hand and ran into the mountains, which made Han Shengchen feel strange, Zhu Ling was also familiar with the road, pulling Han Shengchen to run among the trees, smiling, as if he was very happy.

I don't know how long the woods were, the two stopped, at this time, in front of Han Shengchen's eyes was a beautiful scene: the partial land was flowers, neat, dense, the flowers flowed with a stream, crystal clear, there were fish in the stream, there were saucers on the flowers, there were birds in the wind, and the beauty of nature.

"This is...".

"This one, I planted it myself!" Zhu Ling said, smiling sweetly.

Han Shengchen looked carefully and found that it was Xiangqinghua, puzzled: "But what kind of Xiangqing are you?"

"Because I like it, I remember when I was a child, there was a wild chrysanthemum in front of my house, and it was beautiful."

"Your home?".

After Han Shengchen asked, Zhu Ling suddenly stopped smiling, and kept a calm face, as if she didn't want to say, so Han Shengchen was busy saying, "I'm sorry... Miss Zhu Ling....".

"You still know that I'm sorry" Zhu Ling crossed her shoulders and put on a proud look, "Okay, it's okay to apologize, but you have to promise me one thing!"

"What's the matter?" Han Shengchen was at a loss.

"You are not allowed to call me Zhu Ling in the future!"

"Huh, what's that called?".

"Called..."Zhu Ling thought for a while, "Call Ling'er!" and then squinted at Han Shengchen and smiled, looking naughty.

“... This....".

"Don't do this and that, you'll have to call me that in the future!".

Han Shengchen had no choice but to nod: "... Well, Ling'er...".

Zhu Ling hadn't given up yet, thought about it again, and asked, "Then what else do I call you?"

Han Shengchen didn't speak, he looked at Zhu Ling quietly, and Zhu Ling continued: "There you have it! I'll call you Ah Chen!"

"That's a terrible name, isn't it...".

"No, no, no" Zhu Ling shook her head, "I don't care, anyway, I'm going to call you that in the future!"

In this way, Han Shengchen accompanied Zhu Ling in this flower, watching her laugh, and felt a lot more comfortable. Shisheng peeked in the forest, and his eyes were even more resentful.

The two returned to the cave together, and at this time, a thief under the door came, Han Shengchen saw this, and hurriedly asked what was the matter, and the man replied: "The doorman wants you to go see him immediately!"

Han Shengchen did not slack off, and immediately went to the direction of Wang Yang, at this moment, Wang Yang was already waiting for him in the cave, Han Shengchen greeted: "Father-in-law, why are you calling me in such a hurry?"

"Ha, boy, it's coming very quickly!" Wang Yang is still the same old naughty boy as before.

"That is, I have said that I will be filial to my father-in-law, and whatever the father-in-law does, the child must do!"

"Well, I don't need to say that kind word here, come, I'm about to consult with you about something."

"What's the matter?

"Boy, do you know what I mean by looking for you?"

"Isn't that a family search?".

Wang Yang nodded and touched his beard: "Well, that's just one of them, in fact, I still have something to entrust to you."

"Father, please speak."

"Have you ever heard of the Western Regions Mausoleum?"

"The Mausoleum Palace of the Western Regions?

"This Western Regions Mausoleum Palace is located in the territory of the Black Khan, and no one knows where it is."

"Then what's in this Western Regions Mausoleum Palace?"

"Nobody knows...".

"Then why are you looking for it again?".

"It's because the League of Thieves is also looking for this place."

"Oh, the League of Thieves?".

"Well, the Thieves Alliance has been hostile to our sect for many years, and now that they are going to the Western Regions Mausoleum Palace, we will naturally not sit idly by."

Han Shengchen listened, pondered for a moment, and said: "By the way, father-in-law, when I stole the secret treasure of Kaifeng Mansion, I had a friend named Luo Chong, and now I should go to find him in the Thieves Alliance, ask one or two, and then I will know what is in the Western Regions Mausoleum Palace."

"But the empty-handed white wolf rushed?".

"It is this person, he is a righteous person, and he has a very good relationship with me, I was trapped in Kaifeng Mansion that year, and it was he and others who came to save me."

"Okay, but how do you find him?"

"Yes, that's exactly what ..... the problem."

"Hmm... Stand down."

Han Shengchen left with his hand.

At the Black Wind Cliff, Zhang Hetian had ordered his subordinates to prepare, at this time, the Luo Chong in the alliance came to Zhang Hetian, he had been in the Thieves League for a few years, because of his reputation, he also became one of the twelve leaders of the alliance, he asked: "The alliance leader is so prepared, is he going to the Western Regions Mausoleum Palace?"

"Well, this matter is not suspicious, presumably Wang Yang Lao'er already knows about it."

After listening to this, Luo Chong couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha, how can Wang Yang and the thieves under his door compare with our alliance."

"If there was only Wang Yang, it would naturally not be enough to worry about it, but now he has another person, which is very powerful."

"Oh, what kind of man is so good, wait for me to fix him!".

"Have you ever heard of Han Shengchen who stole the Kaifeng Dragon Tooth?"

When Luo Chong heard this, he was immediately shocked, and he didn't say anything, Zhang Hetian saw him like this, and couldn't help asking: "Could it be that you know each other?"

Luo Chong swallowed his saliva slightly, and pretended to laugh: "The first thief in the world, who doesn't know."

"Well, this person is very dangerous, there are often his deeds on the rivers and lakes, I heard that he dares to confront the major sects in Tianguang Mountain, if this person really wants to help Wang Yang, I will wait to take the Western Regions Mausoleum Palace, it will be even more difficult."

Luo Chong wasn't listening to Zhang Hetian's words at all, he just pondered by himself, and then he arched his hand and said: "Okay, alliance leader, we will find a way to leave this guy in the future!"

Zhang Hetian nodded, and Luo Chong retreated. At this time, he came to the mountain behind the Black Wind Cliff, saw that there was no one around, took out a small paper roll, and first brought a pigeon, and put the paper roll on the pigeon's feet, so that it left.

The pigeon does not know how long it has been flying, through thousands of mountains and rivers, and at dusk came to a Wangfeng Mountain in Xiangzhou, this mountain is tall, surrounded by mountain roads, extremely chaotic, but there is a village on the mountain, it is "Wangfeng Village", it is very huge, there must be a noble person here, there is a person dancing in the courtyard of the village, the fallen leaves are falling, and the sword is cut messy, that person is not someone else, it is the void ghost hand is nameless, he noticed that the pigeon flew by, a light jump, he grabbed it, took the letter on the ankle, opened, saw the text on the top, and looked up at the sky with a solemn face.

Han Shengchen stayed in the mountains, smelling the birds, leisurely. Soon Zhu Ling also came to talk and laugh with him.

"Ah Chen, what are you doing when you say that the birds in the mountains are so happy every day?"

"I think those birds can soar thousands of miles into the sky and see the wonders of the world, and they must be happy and happy."

"Then you say... If we can't soar into the sky, can't we be happy?".

"No, humans and birds are not the same. Each has its own thing, and the happy thing is naturally different."

Zhu Ling nodded lightly, and suddenly said, "Hey, by the way, Ah Chen, you wait for me here."

"Where are you going?".

Zhu Ling didn't stay, she left, Han Shengchen had to wait in place, suddenly, a flying blade attacked, Han Shengchen quickly dodged, and when he looked again, he saw that ten lives were hating not far away.

"Ten lives, what do you mean by this?"

Shisheng looked annoyed and said, "Hmph, Han Shengchen! After you came here, neither Master nor Zhu Ling paid attention to me! You took everything! I will finish you off today!"

"Ten lives are wrong, I came here to assist my father-in-law, and I have no second heart!"

Han Shengchen said so much, Shisheng didn't listen to it at all, pulled out his dagger, and rushed towards Han Shengchen: "Take your life!"

Han Shengchen was helpless, but he didn't want to hurt Shisheng, so he had to defend everywhere, and the more Shisheng fought, the more angry he became, but he couldn't hurt Han Shengchen at all, so he had to say: "Hmph! Han Shengchen, why don't you fight back! Is it because you're afraid of me!"

Han Shengchen didn't answer Shisheng, concentrating on defense, and at this time, a voice came: "Stop!"

The two stopped, and looked, it was Wang Yang, who walked over solemnly, so that the two of them greeted him.

"What's going on?".

Shisheng had nothing to say, he was nervous, and Han Shengchen said: "Oh, father-in-law, just now Shisheng said that he wanted to teach me martial arts, and I tried it with him here, if you disturb your old man, I will blame you."

Wang Yang laughed after hearing this: "Well, the two of you are as harmonious as brothers, this is the best, okay, you continue to practice martial arts" After speaking, he left.

Shisheng waited for Wang Yang to disappear, and then turned into arrogance again: "Hmph, if it wasn't for Master's persuasion today, I would have killed you a long time ago, but don't worry, our business is not over yet!" Shisheng threw down this sentence and left angrily.

Zhu Ling happened to come back, holding some wild fruits in her hand, and when she saw Shisheng leaving like this, she was puzzled, so she came over and asked Han Shengchen: "This....".

Han Shengchen pretended to laugh: "It's okay, you came to chat with me just now."

Zhu Ling nodded unknowingly, and gave the fruit in her hand to Han Shengchen: "Ah Chen, look, this fruit is everywhere on the mountain, but it's delicious."

Han Shengchen smiled and picked up the fruit to eat, Zhu Ling saw that he was eating with relish, and became happy: "If you don't eat enough, I'll help you again."

"Thank you, Ling'er".

When Zhu Ling heard this, she suddenly became shy for some reason, and her face was slightly flushed.

It rained heavily in Gwangju tonight, and there was no way to see the road in the street, at this time there was a man in a straw coat and hat at the city gate, walking in this rain, there was no one on the street, he came to an inn, there were only two or three tables of people eating and drinking, and there was only one person at one table, that was Luo Chong, and the one in the straw coat took off his straw hat, it turned out to be a name, he saw Luo Chong, and sat down together.

"Xiao Er, find some more wine and two catties of beef" Mo Deming sat down, Luo Chong shouted, and poured wine for Mo Deming.

"Why did you call me?" asked Mo Deming, taking a bowl of wine.

"Alas, it's Brother Han's business," Luo Chong replied, eating the beef and vegetables on the table.

"Isn't that Han Shengchen?" Mo Deming was excited.

Luo Chong sighed and said softly: "You should be quiet, there are many eyes and ears of the Thieves Alliance here."

Mo Deming agreed, Luo Chong continued: "That's right, it's Brother Han's business, now that he has entered Wang Yang's thieves to stop him, he wants to confront my thief alliance, and my alliance leader is trying to find a way to control Brother Han."

"What about you and me?".

"I'm a member of the Thieves Alliance now, and it's inconvenient to talk to him, so I made this decision and asked Brother Mo to come and help."

"You mean you want me to go looking for Han Shengchen?"

Luo Chong nodded, and in order not to be bluff, the two stopped mentioning the matter and went to eat and drink and talk elsewhere.

The rain fell not long after, when the two of them said goodbye, Luo rushed out of the door, was about to go to the Black Wind Cliff, just arrived at a dark place, I saw Zhang Qian waiting on the side of the road, Luo Chong was shocked and suspicious, for fear of being recognized, pretending to step forward and smiled: "This is not Brother Zhang Qian, I thought there was a thief on the road."

"Where have you been...."Zhang Qian didn't say much, and asked coldly.

"Didn't I just come back from drinking, you see, I still smell of wine!"

"Eat wine, heh, who do you drink with".

"Of course I'm alone when I go to eat, if it weren't for Brother Zhang Qian's not eating, I would have called you along."

Zhang Qian was obviously suspicious, and rushed around Luo, saying, "Didn't you drink with others?"

"No, I'm alone."

Zhang Qian couldn't ask anything more, so he rushed back: "It's been a good rest these days, and the alliance leader is about to go to the Western Regions."

Luo Chong left with his hands. Zhang Qian went down the mountain, not long after the rain, the ground was full of puddles, he looked around, the doors were closed, only an inn not far away was still open.

Zhang Qian entered the inn, which was the place where Luo Chong and Mo Deming came just now, Xiao Er saw him come in, and stepped forward to greet him with yellow teeth: "Guest officer, do you want to live or eat wine, we have good Du Kang wine, but it's fragrant!"

Zhang Qian didn't speak, just looked at Xiao Er coldly: "Did a person in his twenties with a white face and black clothes come here just now?"

"This guest officer, our inn is full of people every day, let's just say that there are more than a dozen tables tonight, how can you let the villain remember them one by one."

The shopkeeper also looked at Zhang Qian nervously at the counter, but Zhang Qian found out and said that it was late, but it was fast. A hidden weapon shot and hit the shopkeeper right next to him, obviously deliberately missed.

The shopkeeper trembled, sweating a lot on his forehead, Zhang Qian came over and said, "Say, yes and no."

"Hero... The villain really doesn't know....." The shopkeeper's teeth chattered.

Seeing the shopkeeper like this, Zhang Qian quickly pulled out the short knife and pointed at the shopkeeper's forehead, which made the shopkeeper even more scared, Zhang Qian continued: "This knife, called 'Zhenyang Knife', is extremely sharp, I have used it to kill many people, and I don't mind if it has one more today."

With a plop, the shopkeeper knelt on the ground, crying: "The hero spares his life!

"Then do you say it or not!".

"I said, I said..... A man in black and white came here just now, and he gave me some silver when he left, so that I should not talk about ...... with others."

"How many people is he with?".

"It's... This—" The shopkeeper hesitated.

"Say!" Zhang Qian roared.

"I said, I said!" said the shopkeeper, but now life was worse than death, "and the man came for an hour, and a man in straw came and sat with him, as if he had made an appointment, and the two of them ate and drank here, and when the rain stopped, they dispersed.... The hero spares his life, the villain has already told everything he knows."

After Zhang Qian finished asking, he put away the knife, secretly thinking about something in his heart, and turned around and left the inn.
