The girl put one hand on her waist and pointed at Ding Kui with the other: "I have been chasing him out. There is no one else here except you. Who else could it be if you weren't?"
After standing still, Ding Kui saw the girl's appearance clearly. She had a pair of almond-shaped eyes, a straight nose bridge, a small tip of the nose, and rouge-like lips. She was 1.7 meters tall and was fifteen or sixteen years old. ???? ???? Maybe.
Due to long-term training, my body is a bit strong, but my legs have no fat at all.
"Before I met you, a figure did run past. He went to the playground. If I were that person, would I still be waiting for you here?" Ding Kui looked directly into the girl's eyes.
The girl lost her temper and had a doubtful look in her eyes.
At this time, a man came from the men's bathhouse. Seeing a girl dressed coolly, he asked in surprise: "Senior Nie Ling, why are you here dressed like this?"
The person who came was known to Ding Kui and considered an acquaintance of his - Zeng Jian.
"Hmph, you have to ask him!" Nie Ling pointed at Ding Kui, "I saw someone peeping in the women's bathhouse just now, so I immediately chased him out, and I saw him alone here."
Zeng Jian looked at Ding Kui suspiciously, and Ding Kui rushed to say: "Zeng Jian, you came just in time, I can't tell her clearly."
So Ding Kui told Zeng Jian one by one about how he had just finished practicing and was about to come to take a bath, when a figure ran past him on the road, and then he ran into Nie Ling.
Zeng Jian knew it clearly as soon as he heard it. He smiled slightly and said to Nie Ling: "Sister, I think you have misunderstood. This Ding Kui is a trainee knight in the same period as me. I believe he will not peek at you girls taking a shower.
.You said you were chasing the person who was peeping here just now. Did that person have a barrel in his hand?"
Nie Ling rolled her eyes, stretched out her hand to pluck the wet hair on her shoulder, and said, "That's not true, but we can't rule out his suspicion. Maybe he hid the bucket nearby in advance."
Ding Kui was also drunk. He reached out and pinched his chin with a wry smile on his face.
"Haha, senior sister probably didn't see that person clearly. Since he had time to find the hidden barrel and met you here again, why didn't he just run away? He would meet you face to face and let you recognize him.
, do you think it’s reasonable to still be suspected?” In the dim light, Zeng Jian’s teeth were exceptionally white when he smiled.
In fact, Nie Ling already had suspicions in her heart, but she was unwilling to catch the peeping thief. Just as she was thinking about it, two more girls ran over.
Coincidentally, one of the two girls was Shuiyu. They heard Ding Kui tell the story again, and Shuiyu said: "Senior Nie Ling, you are really mistaken. I can see the figure of the peeping thief."
At a glance, he looks taller than Junior Ding."
Nie Ling said to Ding Kui with some embarrassment: "I'm sorry, junior, I misunderstood you. Did you see that person clearly just now?"
"I was a little far away at the time, and the light here was too dark. I could only vaguely see that it was a man, about the same height as Senior Zeng Jian." Ding Kui did not say what he was thinking. The figure looked familiar, but he didn't dare
Sure.
"I'm going to talk to the instructor now about going to the playground and have a look. Senior Nie Ling, please go back first. You are too easy on others when you dress like this." Zeng Jian said to a few girls.
"Humph, how can you two young boys take advantage of it?" Nie Ling said this, with red clouds flying on her face.
After she finished speaking, she quickly turned around and ran back to the women's bathhouse. Shuiyu and another girl came after her with her clothes on. They looked at Nie Ling covering her mouth and laughed. When Nie Ling ran away, the two girls had a fight with Zeng Jian and Ding Kui.
Say hello and walk back to the women's bathhouse.
"Thank you for speaking up for me this time, otherwise I would really be regarded as a peeping thief." Ding Kui looked at Zeng Jian and said.
"Young man, don't be polite. You didn't do this. I just said what was fair. As instructor Huo said, we are comrades in arms. If I don't help you, who will I help?"
"Okay, good comrade, I will never forget this." Ding Kui stepped forward and lightly punched Zeng Jian in the chest.
Zeng Jian smiled and patted Ding Kui on the shoulder; "You go take a shower quickly. I'm going to find the instructor now to see if I can catch the peeping thief."
Nie Ling knew that Zeng Jian was the grandson of the guild president, and she felt that he was the best candidate to come out to catch the peeping thief, so she had no objection.
After this incident, Ding Kui's impression of Zeng Jian greatly increased. He felt that Zeng Jian was a person who was eager to help his friends and was a friend worth keeping company with.
Let's not mention how Zeng Jian searched for the peeping thief. Let's take a look at the depressed Ding Kui. After taking a bath, he walked back to his room with a dejected expression. He was about to open the door when he suddenly stopped.
After the Funiu Mountain incident, the awakened Ding Kui became much more cautious when he was out alone. The door of his room was opened to the outside. When he left, he would put a few weeds on the top of the door. If someone opened Ding Kui's door during this period,
Those few weeds will fall off.
Now those few weeds are not on the door, which means someone has opened the door.
Ding Kui gently put down the barrel in his hand, stood up on tiptoes and took a few steps back, preparing to run away. He shouted to his door: "Who is this person? What do you want to do hiding in my room? Let me know to you."
His identity, otherwise I will call for help!"
A familiar voice came from the room, "It's me, Kui'er, don't be nervous, come in first and then talk."
For Ding Kui after his awakening, the person he is most familiar with and the strangest in the room is Ding Qi.
Ding Kui's parents were still alive before he traveled through time. After awakening, he would often think of his former family members. He would feel a little awkward when facing his father from the Shenyuan Continent.
Entering the room, Ding Kui saluted Ding Qi and asked respectfully: "Why are you here?"
Ding Qi sat on the bed, looked at Ding Kui with sharp eyes, and said, "I went home yesterday, and I knew you had been promoted to a trainee knight, so I came over to take a look.
Have you been to the portal?"
"Yes, I followed you that day because I wanted to see where you were going, but I found the cave and the portal." Ding Kui answered honestly.
Ding Qi patted the bedside: "Come and sit down and say, how did you know someone was in the room just now?"
Ding Kui came to sit down next to his father, straightened his waist, put his hands on his knees, and said: "When I went out, I marked the door. When I came back, I saw that the mark on the door was gone, so I knew someone had opened it.
Door, no one usually comes to me at this time, so I guess someone came in."
Ding Qi's eyes lit up and he said: "There are some things I want to tell you in a few years, but since you discovered the portal and are so careful in your work, I will tell you in advance.
In addition to serving in the Commander-in-Chief's Office and the Eighth Army, the Ding family also had a secret mission, which was to be in charge of the Lu State's intelligence line.
The director of the Intelligence Department is from the Shaodian clan, and the heads of the various halls abroad are all relatives. We in the Ding family are also considered relatives, so we serve as the head of Lu Guotang.
The Lu Kingdom is different from other countries. It is a kingdom that specializes in commercial activities. It is sandwiched between two empires. No matter how powerful the force is, it cannot stop the empire's attack. Because it specializes in trading companies, the two empires do not want to be annexed by the other.
After conquering Lu State, the two sides restricted each other, and the three kingdoms formed a delicate balance.
Another very important feature of the Lu Kingdom is that intelligence can also be bought and sold. Intelligence agents from various countries in the Shenyuan Continent are present in the Lu Kingdom, selling and selling the intelligence in their hands. Any information of some value will be sold, and will
There are irregular underground auctions that specialize in selling information.
The purpose of the intelligence agencies of various countries in Lu State is basically to buy information, and to prevent the leakage of their own country's intelligence. All our country's spies in Lu State are retainers of the Ding family, so Shaodian Dan has never leaked our intelligence.
This position has been removed. The former head of the hall in Lu State was Lao Qiantou. Later, I personally went to Lu State to preside over it and replaced Lao Qiantou.
The cave in the Poisonous Mist Canyon was discovered by the ancestor of Ding Zhen, and it is said that the "Thousands of Hammers and Hundreds of Refinements" was also found there. Since there is a portal in the cave, it is classified as the highest level secret by the family. It is only revealed when the head of the family changes.
If you can tell it, only the head of the family is qualified to know this secret.
When your grandfather asked me to return to my old house, it was also because this portal made it easier for me to go to Lu State to take charge of intelligence work. In order to hide from others, I often pretended to leave Xiaxi Town through the official road, so that people would see me going out, and then sneak back secretly.
, go to Lu State through that portal.
Since you have already shown up there, I don’t have to wait until you are passed on as the head of the family. This Lu State’s intelligence line will also be handed over to you in the future, and I will let Old Qiantou teach you."
At this point Ding Qi paused, and then said to Ding Kui in a very serious tone: "The secret of this portal is the Ding family's last escape route. You must treat this matter very carefully. If it is leaked, it may even
Changing the pattern of Shenyuan Continent will bring about peerless experts, which is simply not something we can handle.
No one can tell this secret, including your future wife and children. It can only be told when you choose an heir and pass the title of head of the family to him. Do not use the portal to go to the Hengduan Mountains before you are promoted to Shieldbreaker Knight.
, the beasts and monsters there are not something you can handle now."
All known teleportation gates are in the hands of the state. No noble family has its own teleportation gate. Once the king discovers that he has secretly built a teleportation gate, he will send powerful magicians to control it, which will cause great harm to the royal family.
He will also be punished with treason.
Ding Kui had a bigger secret hidden behind this portal. He was more cautious than anyone else, so he calmly said to Ding Qi: "Don't worry, after I discovered that cave, I didn't mention it to anyone when I came back.
People know that I have been to Poison Mist Canyon, even Grandpa Kun, I didn’t tell anyone."
"Very good. You are much more sensible than when you were your father. You should have inherited your mother's character in this aspect."
The reason for sneaking into his son's room secretly this time was that Ding Qi wanted to tell the family secrets clearly in private, so that even the closest people around him could not know.
