Salang explained: "Mr. Zhuang's realm is extremely high, so he should understand what I say... To put it simply, this knife is not mine."
Zhuang Junji looked at Salang's sword and nodded after a moment of silence: "Someone sealed the power of this sword."
Salang said: "He is also a friend of mine. He has rushed to Yunzhou. There may be danger in Lin Ye, so he went to take a look."
"But he didn't trust Lin Manting City, so he stored the inner strength of the sword in the sword and told me to use it only when necessary."
He said: "I saw that the man was frightened away by the breath of the sword when it was unsheathed, so I put the sword away."
Zhuang Junji was greatly shocked.
The power of the sword was stored in the sword, and the sword was only half out of the sheath, which frightened away the imperial guards. Zhuang Junji knew very well that based on this alone, he was far behind.
He can seal the inner energy somewhere, but the power of this inner energy is not on the same level.
Zhuang Junji said: "That friend of yours...must be a senior in the martial arts world."
Salang said: "Even if it doesn't count, it doesn't count."
He put the knife aside and pointed to the other side: "I saw Yu Lingwei's people coming out in large numbers, so I went to their hiding place to do some things before it would be too late to save you."
Zhuang Junji thought there would be someone there, but it turned out there was only one box there.
Salang said: "The people of Yulingwei captured some Lou Fan spies from Dongbo, as well as some Dongbo people, and secretly sent them to Dayulai in order to frame Prince Cheng."
He walked to the box: "The things here are all forgeries. They are letters between the prince and the people of Loufan and Dongbo."
Seeing that there were only these letters, Zhuang Jun guessed the fate of those Lou Fan spies.
Seeing that his eyes were a little erratic and he should be thinking, Salang explained: "My strength is limited and I can't take so many people away, so I have to kill them all. Besides, they are all innocent people."
Zhuang Junji looked around: "Where is this place?"
Salang said: "This dilapidated courtyard was once home to a wealthy family. Later, the family was abandoned due to great changes. In order to hide some things, we took advantage of this place and dug an underground darkroom in the well."
"you?"
Zhuang Junji looked at Salang.
Salang said: "Mr. Zhuang, does he know that Linmanting City was originally Lin Ye's hometown?"
Zhuang Junji shook his head: "I've never heard him mention it."
Salang said: "There are many things related to Lin Ye here, including this underground darkroom..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhuang Junji shook his head: "You don't have to tell me anymore. Ye Zi is my younger brother. If he hasn't said anything to me, others shouldn't tell me either."
Salang sighed: "He didn't tell you because he didn't know what happened here."
Zhuang Jun was stunned by these words.
"He himself doesn't know anything about him?"
"yes."
Salang found a place to sit down: "Actually, there are many people who are secretly helping Lin Ye to do things. No one has told him because the time has not come yet."
Zhuang Junji: "Why do you tell me?"
Salang said: "Because this is a very critical moment for Lin Ye."
Zhuang Junji: "What you mean is that his brothers and friends can know in advance what he himself cannot know about."
Salang: "Yes."
Zhuang Junji: "Why?"
Salang said: "Because it would be a bit cruel for him to know the truth at this time."
Zhuang Junji: "He doesn't even know his identity?"
Salang said: "I know one, but I don't know the other."
Zhuang Junji: "Identity matters, why is there one or two?"
Salang was silent for a moment and told Zhuang Junji a story, a story that actually wasn't that long ago.
After Zhuang Junji heard this, his expression changed obviously.
He asked: "So, Lin Ye only knows that he must take revenge, but he doesn't know..."
Before he finished speaking, Salang nodded: "Yes."
Zhuang Junji asked: "Why not let him know."
Salang said: "If you don't see it with your own eyes, experience it, or understand it, if you tell him directly, he will not be firm. If he is not firm, he will definitely fail."
Zhuang Junji thought for a long time and nodded: "Okay."
He asked Salang: "Since you can make it clear to me, you want me to do something for Lin Ye. What is it?"
Salang said: "Sir, please go to Geling in advance after finishing this matter."
Zhuang Junji nodded: "Okay."
Salang: "It will be dangerous."
Zhuang Junji: "It doesn't matter."
The two talked about Lin Ye for a while. During the break, Zhuang Junji looked at the knife again.
He asked: "Who is the person who sealed the inner strength in the sword?"
Salang replied: "My uncle."
Zhuang Junji said: "When I asked you just now, you are a senior in the world. What do you mean when you say it is, but you say it is not?"
Salang replied: "To me, he is a senior, but he is a senior uncle. To Mr. Zhuang, he is not a senior. After all, he is not much older than me."
After he finished speaking, he stood up: "Sir, please rest here. I'll go out to investigate. Prince Chengjun Xie Fulan has a plan, but he doesn't want to be exposed. So, sir, you can rest here for the time being and see what he's hiding."
Something."
After saying this, he bowed and bowed, and then left the dark room.
In the city.
Returning to the station, Bai Sheng took a slow look at the corpses in the stable, then looked at the Yu Lingwei whose heads had fallen to the ground, and his expression darkened.
Something happened to the Lou Fan spies over in Yunzhou City, and even Wang Lian died.
Now, something happened on their side, so there is basically no need to carry out the plan against Prince Cheng.
The only option is to drag it back, or simply break up and take the person directly. As for the evidence...I don't think about it at all.
As a Yu Lingwei, go directly to Chengjun Prince's Mansion to pick up the person, and then send the person to Beiye Prince's Mansion in Yunzhou City.
Give the problem directly to Tuoba Lie and see if Tuoba Lie can handle it or not without any evidence.
Even if there is no evidence, since it was Yu Lingwei who took action, it means that this was the emperor's intention.
Tuoba Lie must not have any reaction.
But in this case, the case may continue to be handled, but the emperor will definitely be furious.
Not to mention whether they have any merit, even if Tuoba Lie really complies with His Majesty's wishes and makes a confession in Yunzhou and submits it to Ge Ling, His Majesty will still kill some people in the Yu Ling Guards.
His Majesty's plan was perfect, but the people who executed it were too incompetent.
However, he did not dare to make the decision on these matters himself, so he had to ask the governor for instructions.
"You... all stay here and wait for my news. I'm going to Yunzhou now."
Bai Sheng gave the order slowly, without any hesitation, and immediately turned around and left.
It takes more than a day and a half to get from Linmanting City to Yunzhou. In addition to their Yuling Guard people, there must be His Majesty's people secretly watching.
Even if they don't report their incompetence, someone will report it exactly as it is.
When the emperor is angry, Yu Lingwei will bleed into a river. Bai Shengman doesn't want to be one of those people who die. He is too unjust. After all, he has just returned from Dongbo.
He left Linmanting City overnight, without any of his men, and rushed to Yunzhou City alone and on two horses.
After two days, drink regular water.
This is the largest river in Yunzhou that can be ranked among the top three. It is said to start in the northwest and enter the sea after 4,700 miles.
When Bai Sheng arrived at the south bank of Changshui, it was noon, the sun was shining brightly, and there were not many boats visible on Changshui.
Bai Sheng was slow and impatient. He couldn't see the ferry and was even more irritated.
On weekdays, there are always many boatmen waiting for work on this shore. Today, at a glance, there is not a single boat docking as far as the south shore can be seen.
He had no choice but to shout loudly towards the boat floating on the water, but the distance was too far and no one responded in time.
He hesitated again and again, so he had to mount his horse again and prepare to rush more than ten miles downstream, where there was a ferry.
As he was about to turn his horse away, suddenly a small boat came toward him in the middle of the river. The boatman shouted something, but he didn't hear it clearly.
But when a ship came, he reined in his horse and waited by the river.
After a while, the boat arrived at the shore, and the captain asked him: "Where are you going, sir?"
He answered slowly in a white voice: "North Shore."
The boatman shook his head repeatedly: "Then you can find someone else to go to. My boat will not go to the north shore."
Bai said slowly: "If you don't go to the north bank, what are you doing at this ferry?"
The boatman said: "Their boats may all go to the north shore, but my boat cannot."
Bai Sheng said slowly: "I will give you five times the silver and you will take me across the river."
The boatman shook his head: "Not to mention five times, even ten times can't take you to the north bank."
Bai Shengman's expression changed. He looked around and saw that there was almost no one around, so he began to have murderous intentions.
If there is a boat here, what does it matter if there is no boatman?
He got off the horse and walked to the riverside: "I am an official of the imperial court. I have important matters to go to the north bank. If you don't take me across the river, I will deal with you according to the rules."
The boatman sighed: "My boat really doesn't go to the north shore."
Bai Shengman quickly flashed and landed on the boat: "You don't have to go to the North Shore, but your boat must go to the North Shore."
The boatman said: "No one else can handle my boat except me, because the water is so strong, but I am the only one doing business."
Bai Sheng slowly: "Then don't blame me."
How could a strong man in the Wuyue Realm care about an ordinary person punting a boat? How could a commander of Yu Ling Guard care about a human life?
The boat was too small to accommodate the two horses. Anyway, Bai Shenghuan didn't care. It was not difficult to find horses when we arrived in the north of the Yangtze River.
He pushed outward with the force of his palms, and the boat left the shore and sailed straight forward through the waves.
The boatman sighed.
He stopped talking, didn't speak in vain, just stood there in a daze.
This Changshui is a big river. Where it is suitable for ferry crossings, the water flow will inevitably slow down, and places where the water flow slows down will inevitably be wider.
Approaching the middle of the river, Bai Sheng slowly looked around. The nearest ship was at least several miles away, and he immediately smiled.
"Do you know that this world is actually unfair?"
he asks.
The boatman nodded: "I know."
Bai Shengman said: "Then tell me, how is it unfair?"
The boatman said: "For example, in this constant water, many people drown every year. Some of them are men and women, some are overworked and some are young. From this point of view, it is not really unfair."
Bai Sheng smiled slowly and said, "If you say that, it's not unfair."
The boatman said: "But the locals don't think so. They think that the water god doesn't want to harm the local people, but the water god needs sacrifices."
"So, they thought, as long as they bring sacrifices to the water god every year, it doesn't matter where he is from, as long as he is not a local."
He looked at Bai Shengman: "So on certain days every year, there are fewer boats on the river."
Bai Sheng frowned slowly, he already roughly understood what the boatman meant.
The boatman asked him: "Some lone travelers from other places were sacrificed, and they died in confusion. Is this fair to them?"
Bai Sheng smiled slowly: "You mean, I am a sacrifice?"
The boatman said: "I told you, in this section, my boat is the only one doing different business. I am the only one not going to the north shore, so you have to get on the boat."
Bai Sheng smiled slowly again: "You just said that it is just a sacrifice anyway, anyone from anywhere can do it, anyone can do it."
The boatman nodded: "Yes."
Bai said slowly: "Can you do it?"
The boatman also laughed: "Guess."
Two breaths later, a white light shone on the boat, and on the river, a line of horses broke through the water and went straight.
One sword cut through ten feet of water.
After two more breaths, the two pieces of white sound were slowly thrown into the river.
Soon the water surface started to churn, and fish big and small were competing for food in the red water.
