Just after midnight, a cloud came from nowhere and covered the moon in the sky.

Lin Yue sat in the shadow of the roof of the building on the side of Jinyiwei's case library, throwing the peanuts in his mouth into his mouth from time to time.

In the past, when I watched costume dramas, I thought the people in them were handsome, and the architecture and scenery were unique and interesting. However, after living in the world of costume dramas for a while, the novelty wore off and I felt bored again.

Fortunately, there was a Sword of Damoris hanging above his head, which prevented him from slacking off and gave him a place to vent all his energy.

As the patrol's footsteps faded away, a sneaky black shadow slipped into the courtyard of the case library.

Covering his face with a black scarf, carrying an oil can on his back, and a knife in his waist,

Ha~ Jinyiwei Shen Baihu came to burn the case and document treasury.

Watching him tiptoeing to open the lock, enter the warehouse, and gently close the door, a faint light came on from the window. Lin Yue sat up straight, stretched for a long time, and felt a little numb after moving. neck and shoulders.

At this time, there was a burst of human voices from the front door, and then the sound of rapidly approaching footsteps. It must be that the manager of the East Factory, Zheng, realized that someone had entered the warehouse and was rushing here.

Lin Yue took out a piece of black cloth to cover his mouth and nose, walked quickly with his waist bent, and arrived at the small courtyard of the case library. He deliberately made a soft sound when he landed, and then ducked and hid in the shadow in the corner.

Shen Lian, who was checking the documents of the internal officials and supervisors in the warehouse, was startled. He quickly blew out the fire folder, put away the treasure ship supervision minutes, walked to the window and looked outside, and saw a figure standing near the gate of the inner courtyard.

Broken, discovered.

Shen Lian felt guilty, and when he was considering whether to hide or fight, he heard a soft sound of rolling stones coming from the side and in front, and a person walked out from behind the lampstand.

What's going on?

Shen Lian frowned.

"Did you light the incense in the front yard?"

At the sound of the sound, the man at the door took two steps forward, and the moonlight fell, illuminating the round-cap soap boots. Shen Lian recognized him—Zheng Zhengban, who was sent by the Dongchang to check the documents of the internal officials and supervisors.

The person next to the lampstand said nothing, and after two breaths, he suddenly ran to the left corner.

"Want to run? Dreaming."

Commander Zheng snorted coldly, exerted force with his feet, and moved to the right. The chain rang softly as he flicked his wrist, and the meteor hammer drew a half circle and swept across the masked man in front.

The person who sabotaged the most handsome fight scene in the movie with a sideways kick was naturally Lin Yue. Seeing the meteor hammer blocking the way forward, he thrust his toes into the gravel and raised his head and bowed using the force.

Whoosh~

The meteor hammer scraped close to the tip of the nose.

Zheng Zhangban's attack failed, so he pulled back the chain with his right hand, stepped on the ground with his foot, and extended the spiral cone forward with his left hand.

There is a pulled back meteor hammer at the back and a cone in the front.

Lin Yue moved his hands to his waist, holding the short knife in his hand. He slid to the side and drew out the two swords in succession.

Zheng Zhangban turned his wrist to meet the cone, and blocked it with a chain. He forced Lin Yue back with his luck and kicked with his right foot. The meteor hammer turned into a black light and went straight to the opponent's chest.

It was no longer possible to dodge, so Lin Yue had no choice but to cross his swords and resist the meteor hammer's pursuit.

When~

The blade of the sword trembled slightly, and the palm of the hand felt numb.

"A couple of times."

Lin Yue said in a low voice and waved to Zheng Zhangban.

"Huh, you're asking for humiliation."

Commander Zheng turned the chain a few times, then swung it forward, and the meteor hammer flew out with a whine.

The two of them went back and forth for a while. Zheng Zhangban bullied Lin Yue and attacked the lower lane several times with his feet. Suddenly, when the spiral cone thrust out and the meteor hammer fell, he raised his foot and hooked it.

This move was so tricky that Lin Yue was caught off guard. The short sword in his left hand was knocked off, and he lost the chance to parry the spiral cone.

Commander Zheng narrowed his eyes, moved his left hand horizontally, and thrust forward, with the tip of the awl pointing directly at the enemy's throat.

Bang~

At this moment, a hand grasped the cone body.

Zheng Zhangban was stunned for a moment, because no matter how hard he tried, the spiral cone could not move forward.

There's obviously less than an inch left, but it seems so close.

No, the spiral structure of the cone body is specially designed and is very sharp. An ordinary person's palm would have been cut if he held it, but the person opposite showed no signs of pain at all.

Just when he was stunned, Lin Yue scratched the dagger in his right hand against the chain, bringing a string of sparks towards his hand holding the weapon.

Commander Zheng could only retreat quickly, and his hand holding the chain shrank to the side of the meteor hammer.

Lin Yue sealed the spiral cone and held the meteor hammer, looking like a tug of war.

"You're a little more powerful than I thought."

To the surprise of Commander Zheng, he actually let go of the spiral cone, threw the short knife in his right hand to the ground, stepped back a few steps to the lampstand, and grabbed a gun from behind.

When it comes to the masters in Xiuchundao movies, aside from the halo of the protagonist and taking Shen Lian as the benchmark, there are three people who are better than him in pure martial arts, Ding Xiu, Zhao Jingzhong, and Zheng Zhangban.

Whether he wanted to test his weapon fighting skills or not admit defeat, in short, he did not use the ghost gloves to defeat his opponent, but took out the long spear that he had bought all over the capital.

Lin Yue waved again with a gun and flowers on his arm.

"Come again."

Commander Zheng's face darkened, and he started a new offensive with his meteor hammer.

At the same time, Shen Lian, who was hiding in the document library, was confused because the scene of the masked man using double daggers to fight with Zheng Zhangban reminded him of the person who rescued Yin Cheng on the day of the murder in Jinling Tower. According to Pei Lun According to the theory, the person who castrated Ling Yunkai also used two short swords. Unexpectedly, today he came to set fire to the case library and met the man with short swords again.

The treasure ship sank and Xizong fell into the water; in the Jinling Tower murder case, Guo Zhen disappeared; Beizhai brought calligraphy and paintings to Guo Zhen, so that the Bian Army Swordsman forced him to burn the case library; he found the treasure ship supervision minutes in the case library, and Zheng Zhangban When he was about to break into his hiding place, the man with the short sword appeared at the right time... If these events were connected, a conspiracy to assassinate the emperor was formed in his mind.

Could this man with a short sword be an accomplice of the woman who used the sword technique? If so, since he could sneak into the inner courtyard of the archives without anyone noticing, why didn't he set fire to the books himself?

Shen Lian found that he couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he tried, and his mind was in a mess.

When~

The sound of gold and iron coming from the courtyard called back his attention.

The two people over there were already fighting each other for several seconds. Lin Yue knocked the meteor hammer away with the tail cone of his spear. He thrust the tip of the spear forward and then in a clockwise circle, wrapping the chain around the handle of the spear.

Commander Zheng reacted quickly. He yanked the chain, grabbed the handle of the gun and pulled Lin Yue forward, and stabbed Lin Yue at close range with the spiral cone of his left hand.

Huh~

Huh~

Lin Yue continued to evade, found a gap, then pressed forward with all his strength, bent the spear in an arc, and hit the soft armor on the opponent's chest with a very tricky punch, and finally grasped the part near the head of the spear.

"snort."

Commander Zheng groaned and took three steps back.

Just when he stabilized his body and planned to fight again, he saw Lin Yue let go of his right hand, and the U-shaped gun body swept across under the action of the elastic force, hitting his lower abdomen with a snap.

A strong force came over him and hit his body heavily against the lampstand.

Lin Yue walked up to Commander Zheng who was paralyzed on the ground and could not get up, leaned over and said a word.

This time he didn't deliberately change his voice.

"Is it you?"

The moment Commander Zheng opened his mouth to shout, Lin Yue pointed his fingers downward, broke the enemy's spine, and took the opportunity to put something into his mouth.

This scene is a long story, but actually it takes less than one stick of incense.

After taking care of Mr. Zheng, he turned to look at the warehouse and said, "Hurry up and leave."

Shen Lian knew that it was not advisable to stay here for a long time, so he opened the door and walked out of the case library, took a deep look at the masked man holding a spear, quickly ran to the front door, and disappeared with several leaps in a row.

Lin Yue took out the fire certificate, blew on it, threw it into the warehouse, jumped up on the courtyard wall, and went further and further away in the rising firelight.

…

There was a fire in the Jinyiwei case library, and the relevant documents were seriously damaged.

Lin Yue came to Dongchang early in the morning and heard from people in the yamen that the factory boss was very angry and the consequences would be serious, and he scolded Tian Ergeng, the commander of the Jinyiwei, in front of him.

A fire broke out in the archives sooner or later, but it happened to catch fire when the Dongchang was investigating the documents of the internal officials and supervisors. Moreover, the supervisor in charge of the investigation, Zheng, was found lying in the yard. He was still alive, but he was paralyzed and his throat was damaged. Dumb.

This is a provocation to Dongchang.

Near noon, Zhao Jingzhong's people carried Chief Zheng out of the Yamen. The roomkeeper and foreman, who were usually close friends, headed to Nancheng together.

Lin Yue also pretended to follow him. On the way, he heard from people around Zhao Jingzhong that Zheng's subordinates found a short knife in the inner courtyard of the archives. Ling Zongqi confirmed that it was the weapon used by the man with the birthmark who had castrated him. Lu Qian The household has sent a painter to Mr. Ling Qi's house, preparing to issue a notice that the birthmark man and Yin Cheng are wanted throughout the city.

…

Half an hour later.

Everyone came to Zheng Zhangban's house.

What greeted them was a woman in her twenties, with a beaded hairpin stuck in the back of her head, a rosy mouth, and bright almond-shaped eyes. She paired it with a moonlight skirt, which gave her an alluring and chic look.

After learning about Boss Zheng's situation, she cried very sadly. Her good friend, the foreman, persuaded her for a while and left some scraps of money.
