Xiong Wei looked at Xiaoyaozi and said, "Master, we were ordered to come to Yangzhou to arrest the officials and profiteers who smuggled the salt tax. ”

"Did you catch it?" Xiaoyaozi sat down again, still looking unhurried.

"I got it. Xiong said proudly.

"What about people?" Xiaoyaozi didn't seem to be satisfied with Xiong Wei's achievement.

"Of course, we were ordered to escort them back to Beijing. ”

"Hehe!" Xiaoyaozi sneered, "Since you have already caught someone." And they were escorted back to Beijing. I remember the direction of returning to Beijing, not this direction. Are you on the wrong track!"

Xiong Wei was tormented by Xiaoyaozi's tone, but what Xiaoyaozi said was reasonable, and he didn't grasp any opportunity and reason to refute. He added: "I have already sent someone to escort it. ”

"Then why don't you come to Taihu Lake with the escort?" Xiaoyaozi asked knowingly, against General Xiong Qi's army.

"I ......" Xiong Wei especially wanted to say, because the emperor also asked me to kill three people. However, he knew that he couldn't say it, not even Xiaoyaozi.

However, if he didn't ask things clearly, he was unwilling. He rolled his eyes, and finally found an opportunity to ask Xiaoyaozi rhetorically.

"Master!" Xiong Wei asked very seriously, "Just now, did you rescue the three people from Donglin Academy, and you are still fighting me on the way?"

Xiaoyaozi hesitated, he didn't expect Xiong Wei to ask this question directly. He always thought that he was leading Xiong Wei's thinking, but now that he thinks about it, he still underestimated Xiong Wei.

"Which eye of yours saw me save people? That eye of yours saw me fighting with you?" Xiaoyaozi was too lazy to look at Xiong Wei, and turned to look at the night view of Taihu Lake.

In fact, both the master and the apprentice both know what the other wants to say and what they want to ask. No one is going to pierce this fog.

Xiong Wei said firmly, "Master, let me tell you clearly. I already know that you're the one I'm fighting against. I've been with you for so long, and your martial arts are all handed over to me by you. If I can't even guess your moves, then I've been following you for so many years. ”

Xiaoyaozi was afraid that his moves would be seen by Xiong Wei, so he hid it when he fought with him, and he didn't dare to say a word, and covered his face.

Xiong Wei looked at Xiaoyaozi's expression and knew that he guessed 100% correctly. He continued: "Master, when we were fighting, Yun'er and I both knew each other's moves and attack methods very well. It's not you, it's someone else. ”

"Moves can be imitated. Xiaoyaozi saw Xiong Wei asking so aggressively, and he had to refute himself, and said a word tentatively.

"Master, the moves can be imitated. Even voices can be imitated, and even human faces can be imitated with a human skin mask. But there's one thing you can't imitate?"

"What?" said Xiaoyaozi in amazement, he didn't know where Xiong Wei saw his flaws.

"Body shape and temperament cannot be imitated. Xiong Wei said very seriously. When he first met Xiaoyaozi, he was shocked by his temperament.

Xiaoyaozi's unrestrained and free temperament that emanates from his bones is not something that anyone can imitate so similarly.

As soon as these words came out, Xiaoyaozi was silent. He thought to himself: I won't admit it to death, even if you are sure that it is me in your heart. So what?

"Hehe!" Xiaoyaozi's eyes lit up and he said with a smile, "You are all your words." How can you be sure of me?"

Xiong Wei took a deep breath and thought: This master really didn't admit it.

He said, "Master, although I have no proof, I am very sure that it is you. It doesn't matter if you don't admit it, there's one more thing, I wanted to ask you for a long time, but I haven't opened my mouth. ”

"What's the matter?"

Xiong Wei finally asked the question he had wanted to ask for a long time: "I heard you tell the governor to let him pay the salt tax. How do you explain this? ”

Xiaoyaozi really didn't know how to tell Xiong Wei, this matter was too wide-ranging, and even related to the social affairs of the entire country.

Xiaoyaozi also sighed, and all he could say at this time was this: "Xiao'er, I hope you don't get entangled in this matter anymore and stop it as soon as possible." You're not from the court yet!"

The more Xiaoyaozi spoke, the more excited he became: "Even if you really become a third-grade guard with a knife in the future." It's just a three-grade guard with a knife. It's not a useful thing!......"

Xiaoyaozi wanted to say that the official that the emperor gave me was much higher and bigger than yours, and my identity was much more noble than yours, but the words came to his mouth and swallowed back.

I didn't want Xiong Wei to ask Xiaoyaozi again: "Master, the guards with knives in the third rank can't be regarded as anything useful. What about you and me?"

"I, I'm your master! First, I'm a teacher and a father for life! Today, I'm going to fulfill the responsibility of being a master and teach you the way of being a human being and the way of the world. ”

"I don't want you to ask about these officialdom things. Your task is to protect the emperor and protect the crown prince!"

Xiong Wei had never seen Xiaoyaozi so excited. In Xiong Wei's eyes, no matter what happens, Xiaoyaozi is very calm. No matter what he asks, Xiaoyaozi answers that you have a lot of questions.

Xiaoyaozi seems to be a little abnormal today, to be precise, he has not been normal since this time. This time, he didn't help himself with advice, but also went to the other party's to report and help them find a way.

The more Xiong Wei thought about it, the more excited he became, and the more he spoke, the more anxious his tone became: "Master, I don't know if you heard any rumors again. I hope that Master, you will stand by my side and stop ventilating the news. ”

Xiaoyaozi roared angrily at Xiong Wei in a commanding tone: "Qi'er, don't be obsessed. I repeat, there are things that can be done and things that cannot be done! Especially in royal affairs, power struggles, you don't interfere much. It was because Master had taken care of too many royal affairs that he planned to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests. But ......"

Xiaoyaozi remembered his life, many helpless stories.

More than 20 years ago, he was as stupid as Xiong Wei, and the path Xiong Wei is walking now is the same path he took more than 20 years ago.

More than twenty years ago, he made a mistake. Now, he can't let Xiong Wei repeat the mistakes he once made.

"Master, people can't help themselves in the rivers and lakes. I don't want to care, but since I agreed, I'm going to do a good job!"

He muttered to Xiaoyaozi again: "Master, don't forget, the hidden dragon is known to you, and I only know it." This task was also told to me by you. ”

"You!" Xiaoyaozi was completely angry with Xiong Wei this time.

Xiaoyaozi shook his head, he couldn't tell Xiong Wei for a while, what was going on.

He had no choice but to throw a sentence coldly: "Qi'er, since you have already arrested the governor and the prefect." That's how the salt tax matters. Don't involve more people, I'm afraid that if you continue like this, you will not be able to protect yourself in the end. ”

When Xiong Wei heard the words "it is difficult to protect himself", he "chuckled" in his heart. Xia Yun also said the same thing to herself.

Xiaoyaozi reminded Xiong Wei excitedly. "Qi'er, since you have escorted those people, hurry up and escort them. Maybe it's too late, and those people are dead. You can't afford to pay even more. ”

Xia Yun was stunned when she heard this. I thought: What else does he know?

"Master, what do you mean by that? How do you know they're going to die?" Xiong Wei looked at Xiaoyaozi suspiciously, "Master, do you know something?"

"I don't know anything, it's just my judgment from experience. Xiaoyaozi said lightly.

"Master, experience cannot be used as a basis for judging things. ”

"You don't believe me?" Xiaoyaozi looked at Xiong Wei suspiciously.

"It's not that I don't believe you, it's that you don't have evidence that convinces me. ”

"You don't believe me, and I can't help it. I don't have any evidence to convince you right now. ”

Xiaoyaozi paused for a moment and continued: "It's better for the two of us to bet." ”

"Bet?" Xiong repeated suspiciously, "bet on what?"

"Bet, if you don't go. Will those people be killed? Xiaoyaozi said with certainty.

Xiong Wei hesitated for a moment, but in fact, he didn't have a bottom in his heart.

"No!" he said firmly, "unless you go and kill them now." Xiong Wei thinks that as long as Xiaoyaozi doesn't kill them, nothing will go wrong.

"I'm going to kill them, I'm not going to do such a thing!" said Xiaoyaozi disdainfully.

"But what if you kill the three of them before we get away while you're gone?" asked Xiong Wei again.

"And what do you want?" asked Xiaoyaozi rhetorically.

"Unless, you come with us now. ”

Xiaoyaozi didn't hesitate for a second, and said, "Okay, then I'll go to Jingshi with you now." Look if a few of them were dead when we arrived!"

"Okay! Xiong Wei looked at Xiaoyaozi.

"Okay! Xiaoyaozi said, and added, "Xiao'er, but if you lose, you have to promise Master one thing." ”

"Master, how do you know I'm going to lose?" Xiong said unconvinced.

"You're going to lose this bet. Xiaoyaozi said confidently.

"Master, why don't you believe me like this?" Xiong Wei was anxious, he didn't know what medicine Xiaoyaozi was selling in the gourd.

He never thought that Xiaoyaozi had already sent Wang Dong to kill these people. Even if he keeps staring at Xiaoyaozi, what will happen?

"Qi'er, with your current experience, every gamble will be lost!" Xiaoyaozi looked at Xiong Wei with disdain.

Xiong Wei took a deep breath, he was very unhappy about Xiaoyaozi's words. He also looked at Xiaoyaozi unreasonably and said, "Master, you are too confident!"

"Okay! Let's go now. Xiaoyaozi also continued.

They rowed the boat to the shore, and as soon as Xiaoyaozi whistled, four fast horses galloped out of the grass.

Xiong Wei looked at the four fast horses and said, "Master, this is the evidence that you saved those four people just now. ”

Xiaoyaozi didn't bother to speak, jumped on the horse and said, "It's better to hurry up, if you don't leave, those three people will be killed." ”

Xiaoyaozi pinched the horse's belly with both feet, and the horse "shouted" and ran quickly forward.

He thought to himself: Right now, as long as the bear is removed, the three adults will be safe. Now, the most important thing is to know if Wang Dong arrived before him and killed the three adults.

Xiong Wei watched Xiaoyaozi run away on horseback, jumped on the horse himself, and chased after him.

Xia Yun also chased after him.
