    Following closely behind a most powerful assassin, Zhu Yuyan, Shi Feixuan, and I arrived at a dense forest outside the city.  The assassin in front turned over and stopped suddenly in front of a dead tree stump that no one could hug. He looked around vigilantly, then jumped onto the stump and disappeared from our sight.  The three of them looked at each other, waited for a while and estimated that the assassin was far away from the entrance. Then they jumped onto the tree stump and walked in. The secret passage was narrow and not wet. It was obvious that the ventilation design was quite exquisite. I don't know whose hand it was.  .  When we came out from the other end of the secret passage, we were surprised to find that we were in the same courtyard we came to explore yesterday.  However, he was surprised to find that not only was there no guard in the courtyard, but there was not even a single person in the secret room.  Shi Feixuan said with confusion on her face: "We clearly saw the assassin sneaking back here through the secret passage. How come we didn't even see a single figure in the blink of an eye?" Zhu Yuyan pondered for a moment and said: "Assassin  With his skills, it is absolutely impossible to find the three of us following him. And since he went through all the trouble in a big circle outside the city before sneaking back through the secret passage, this should be where they are hiding, so why are they defensive.  It¡¯s so sparse, and there¡¯s not even a single figure in the secret room?¡± I didn¡¯t answer Zhu Yuyan¡¯s question, because I was also very confused at this time, and the enemy¡¯s actions were really beyond my expectations.  He frowned and walked back and forth in the secret room, carefully observing every item in the room with his eyes. He also touched the cabinet shelves and antique utensils from time to time, never missing a suspicious place.  After checking it out, I twirled the dust on the porcelain bottle with my fingers. A flash of light flashed in my mind, and I couldn't help but search the ground.  "Haha, it's true." After discovering the secret, I smiled.  Zhu Yuyan walked up to me, lowered her head and looked at the ground under her feet. She didn't find anything that could be found. She asked me puzzledly: "Did your husband see through the secret? Why didn't I find it on the ground?"  "What?" I glanced sideways at Shi Feixuan next to me, and saw that she didn't have the slightest surprise on her face when she heard Zhu Yuyan call me "husband", so I guessed that the girls must have been there last night.  Told her.  Then he looked at Zhu Yuyan and said with a smile: "Yan'er, take a careful look at the dust on the ground and the surrounding furniture and you will understand." After I mentioned this, Zhu Yuyan immediately understood, turned her head and looked at me, and said suddenly:  "Husband, you mean" "This is just a disguise to confuse us, but the real hiding place is somewhere else!" Zhu Yuyan was just halfway through her words when Shi Fei Xuan also saw the secret.  He has already said it first.  "Yes, that's right." I nodded, stretched out my hand and pinched Zhu Yuyan's tender face, full of teasing feeling. I saw the look on the side of Master Feixuan, who was stunned, and her pretty face turned slightly red.  I laughed and continued: "Although in order to make the illusion very realistic, people will come to clean here every once in a while. But as long as someone walks around here, it is inevitable that the dust on the ground will not be evenly distributed." After finishing speaking,  He pointed at the ground to the two women beside him and said: "Look from here to the wall opposite us, the dust on the ground that is about a foot wide is obviously much thinner than the surrounding thickness. Hehe, so I'm sure it's there."  There must be a secret passage hidden behind the opposite wall, and the switch must be on the wall." Although he said it so casually, he secretly said "lucky", but he didn't expect the enemy's thoughts to be so meticulous.  , if my eyes were not extremely sharp, other people would never be able to tell the thickness of the dust on the ground if they came here.  Shi Feixuan followed the path of my fingers and walked under the opposite wall, explored it carefully, and patiently tapped each brick.  When he heard the crisp sound from above, he turned his head and waved to me and Zhu Yuyan excitedly: "Brother Tian is right, there is indeed a mechanism here." Unintentionally, he already called me "Brother Tian",  After speaking, he stretched out his hand and pressed hard on the blue brick judged as the mechanism. After a deep muffled sound, a secret door slowly rose up on the opposite wall.  Behind it is another narrow and long secret passage.  ¡° Seeing this, I couldn¡¯t help but think of the dungeon where Shen Luoyan was imprisoned. The structure was also very similar. I wonder if it was written by the same person.  Rou Yi, who held Zhu Yuyan's hand, gave a thumbs up to Shi Fei Xuan, who was full of joy. Then she took advantage of the situation and tightly held Shi Fei Xuan's soft and boneless hand, and pulled the two of them into the secret passage without any explanation.  I secretly rejoiced in my heart, at such a great opportunity, it would be a fool not to take advantage of it!  Shi Feixuan didn¡¯t expect me to be like this. Her face was flushed, and her heart was itching. She couldn¡¯t tell whether it was because she was shy or excited.  I wanted to break free from my hand, but I was a little reluctant, so I obeyed.He followed me closely, too shy to look up at me.  Because we were worried about triggering the mechanism in the secret passage, the three of us moved very slowly. In fact, this was also intentional on my part.  Of course, Zhu Yuyan and Shi Feixuan knew it well, but they just didn't reveal it.  Master Feixuan's face was flushed, and she accompanied me shyly and obediently, like a newly married daughter-in-law.  The sweet time always passes quickly. After about an incense injection, we came to the end of the secret passage.  He released his huge spiritual consciousness, knocked down the four secret sentries waiting in the dark in the courtyard, led the two women to fly out, and jumped directly to the roof.  I was surprised to find that I had arrived in the Dongcheng area of ??Jiujiang.  Zhu Yuyan said calmly: "I didn't expect that the enemy's real hiding place was in the East City. No wonder we didn't find any traces of the enemy there yesterday."  He pointed to a house in front of him and said softly: "There is a faint smell of blood in the air above that house. It should be the enemy's hiding place." I looked in the direction of the concubine's finger, and I nodded.  , said: "Feixuan is right. Let's go over and inquire to see if we can hear some useful information." Shi Feixuan frowned slightly and said: "How many of these assassins are there?  His skills are really not weak, and the security here must be very tight. It may not be easy to sneak in. " Zhu Yuyan smiled coquettishly after hearing this, and said, "Don't worry, Feixuan, there is nothing that can't be done here if you have a husband.  "As soon as she finished speaking, Shi Feixuan was surprised to find that the night around the three of us was slowly "dancing", and the scenery in front of her gradually became unreal, as if there was a layer of water in front of her.  If there is a fourth person beside us at this time, we will see that the bodies and breaths of the three of us are gradually swallowed up bit by bit by the surrounding night until they disappear completely.  After using energy to lay a layer of "mirror enchantment" around the three of them, the three of them quietly fell into the courtyard pointed by Shi Feixuan, and unknowingly avoided the eyes and ears of all the secret whistles.  , standing on the roof tightly, eavesdropping on the conversations in the room through the subtle vibrations of the tiles.  "Sigh, it's such a pity that such a well-thought-out plan failed. I hope that the Third Order will give me a few words of praise for my subordinate Duoduo in front of the young master." The person who spoke was Qiu Feng, the leader of the "Long Sword Club"  Ling.  "We still underestimated Lin Shihong's strength. We didn't expect that he could withstand a few heavy blows from you and only suffer minor internal injuries. He also had the ability to fight the 'Thirteen Blood Kills'. We were about to succeed, but we didn't expect that Lin Shihong had something secretly in store for him.  Experts help me. I have checked the wound on Thirteen Blood Killer¡¯s forehead, and it is just a bamboo chopstick. You have personally experienced the martial arts of the thirteen of them. This person who fired the bamboo chopsticks can actually kill Thirteen Blood  It was simply unbelievable that he was killed without any reaction. Moreover, we didn¡¯t find anyone suspicious in the school grounds, so the person who sent the chopsticks must be hundreds of steps away.  In a restaurant across the street from the school grounds. With such a long distance and the interference of night, this person was not only able to hit Thirteen Blood Killers on the forehead at the same time, but also nailed them firmly to the city wall.  It's so high that it's hard to imagine. "The person who spoke was another person, and by capturing this person's aura, it was the assassin we were tracking.  "As for the young master" The man deliberately protracted his voice, paused and asked Qiu Fengling greedily: "I heard that Yang Guang's 'Emerald Glazed Cup' has been turned over several times and is now gone."  In the hands of Brother Qiu, this Brother Qiu also knows that this envoy has such a hobby and likes to collect those weird things. I wonder if Brother Qiu can let me take a look. " Qiu Fengling has already considered these three in his heart.  The envoy cursed like crazy, are you looking here and there?  It's obviously a robbery!  But people had to bow their heads under the low eaves. At this moment, the fate of the whole family was all in the mouth of the Third Order, and he hurriedly smiled and said: "What did the Third Order say? My subordinates know what the Third Order is saying."  It is your hobby, this 'Emerald Glaze Cup' was originally planned to be delivered to you by a subordinate on a certain day." Seeing Qiu Fengling's understanding of current affairs, the Third Order laughed heartily and said, "Where are you, young master?  Brother Qiu, you can rest assured that this matter was all due to the poor planning of those bullshit advisers and wise men who underestimated Lin Shihong's strength, which led to the final failure. What does it have to do with Brother Qiu? I will report the truth to the young master, but the young master has always been the case.  Rewards and punishments are clear, Brother Qiu's physical suffering is definitely inevitable." When he heard the words "skinful suffering," Qiu Fengling's face immediately turned pale, and goosebumps appeared all over his body, and he hurriedly asked in fear.  The Third Order envoy begged: "I also hope that the Third Order Envoy can say a few kind words for his subordinates, and I will definitely repay him one day." "In this case Brother Qiu's matter will be taken care of by me, and I will definitely not complain.  Brother Qiu is ugly." The third order hesitated.He lowered his head and patted his chest in assurance.  Then he changed the topic and said: "Young Master has left Jiujiang yesterday. The things here can be suppressed for the time being. Brother Qiu has exposed his identity in front of Lin Shihong. There is no need for the 'Long Sword Society' to exist, so as to avoid long nights and dreams.  I think Brother Qiu will leave Jiujiang tonight and go to Lingnan to help the seven and eight messengers. " Qiu Fengling lowered his head and thought for a while. It took him many years of struggle to develop the "Long Sword Club" to where it is today. Although this is the case.  It's just a small detail in the plan, but people are brave, and they have been with the disciples of "Huizhong" for such a long time. Besides, without the "Long Sword Club", naturally there would be no "Long Sword Club" like him.  "Chicken head", I have to live a life of being dependent on others and not even a "phoenix tail", but it is difficult to let go.  Finally he sighed, "Long Sword Club" Compared with his own wealth and life, Qiu Fengling was still able to distinguish which was more important. He raised his head and said to the Third Order Envoy: "With this matter, can the Third Order Envoy give it to his subordinates?"  When it's time to pour incense, let me explain to the subordinates of the 'Long Sword Club'. After all, they are all brothers who have followed me through life and death for several years." The third commander frowned and sneered: "Brother Qiu.  It's really unnecessary, they are just insignificant chess pieces. If Brother Qiu goes back like this, isn't he trying to get into Lin Shihong's pocket? Your life is small, but if the news about my teaching is leaked, what will happen to you?  I know!" After saying that, he suddenly changed his tone and said: "With Brother Qiu's ability, as long as he can serve the young master faithfully and achieve great things, isn't it easy for him to gain wealth and glory? Why should Brother Qiu care about temporary gains and losses?  ?¡± Under the persuasion of the Third Order, Qiu Fengling calmed down, as if he saw the dream of being clothed in gold and silver, with money and beautiful women under his control, and said with determination: ¡°Okay! Thank you, the Third Order, for your advice.  , I will leave Jiujiang immediately and go to Lingnan. I will leave the matter here to you." After saying that, he opened the door and disappeared into the distant night.  I flicked a touch of tiller incense on Qiu Fengling's body with my fingers to facilitate the tracking of "Eagle Eye". Qiu Fengling was already in a state of embarrassment, so naturally he didn't notice it at all.  The third commander watched Qiu Fengling disappear from sight, his face full of friendly smiles suddenly turned cold, with a cruel smile on his lips, he put down the teacup in his hand, and said to himself sinisterly: "The chess pieces are just after all.  Once the chess pieces lose their function, they are destined to leave the chessboard Hehe. "Haha, I love hearing this. It's time for you, the chess piece, to leave the chessboard." A joking voice came from the rumor.  Like a saw tooth, it cut off the evil and proud laughter of the Third Order.
