Chapter 11 The Man in Black

Covered by the darkness, the man was dressed in black and sneaked into the woods.

Seeing this outfit and wretched image, Qi Yue subconsciously felt that this person was not from Changlin Villa.

"Shen Jinyu!" Qi Yue hurriedly told Shen Jinyu to turn around to look. Shen Jinyu frowned when he saw the disappearing figure of the man, "That's the direction of Changchun Hall, the master's yard."

"That man is shy and shy. He doesn't look like a good person. People from the imperial court are now living in Zhuangzi. Will there be some disturbed and kind people mixed in?" Qi Yue asked in a low voice.

Shen Jinyu grabbed the knife almost subconsciously, "Let's go and have a look,"

"So sloppy?" Qi Yue watched as Shen Jinyu followed with a stride of his long legs, and hurriedly followed without asking any more questions, "Why are you so active?"

Shen Jinyu didn't answer, she turned her head and made a silence gesture to Qi Yue. The two of them slowed down and followed behind, passing through a forest and stepping over a wooden bridge. The rush of the stream under the bridge was particularly eye-catching at night.

The man in black walked to the Changchun hall, looked around, opened the door and walked in.Immediately, there was the sound of chairs moving and rustling voices in the room.

Shen Jinyu and Qi Yue hid under a kapok tree, a little distance away from the house, and the people in the room deliberately lowered their voices, so they couldn't understand a word.

In the Changchun Hall, the man in black opened the chair and sat down with his legs wide open. He removed the mask covering his face, revealing a dark-skinned face, which was tanned in the battlefield all the year round. On his right cheek Crawled a hideous scar like a centipede.

"How do you think about it? If you agree to us, then you will be a lieutenant of the Heaven Breaking Army. From an official to the second rank, even if you are not under one person, you can still be above ten thousand people."

Duan Cang picked up the white porcelain cup of tea in front of him, lifted the lid, flicked the tea foam, and took a sip. It was the magnolia fragrance grown by Changlin Villa itself, and it was very fragrant.He knew what this man was planning. Changlin Villa, as a Jianghu sect, was growing day by day, and the man in the palace was worried that they would not be able to deal with these Jianghu sects once they rebelled. Soldiers, if their gate can be included in the imperial court, then other small sects will naturally be able to handle it.

Duan Cang can tell the difference between being a courtier of others and being a leader in one's own territory, whether it is better to be restricted in every way.

He put the tea on the table and said with a slight smile, "Master Zhang, didn't we agree? Every year you can come to Changlin to select disciples to join the camp. There are 100 students each year. If it is not enough, you can add 20 more students every year." People, as for being a lieutenant, Duan has no intention of becoming an official in the court, "

The man in black in front of Duan Cang was none other than Zhang Yin, the commander of the left and right forward battalion of the second rank of the imperial court, and he was the current emperor's favorite.

Zhang Yin snorted coldly, "Master Duan, don't forget how you got your position today. I seem to have seen that young man named Shen Jinyu in the training ground today. I haven't seen him for many years and he has grown so big. If I accidentally know Knowing the real cause of his parents' death, I don't know what will happen?"

Hearing this, Duan Cang's face turned cold all of a sudden, "Master Zhang, what is the meaning of this? We just take what we need, why is this now a threat?"

"Let's get what we need now," Zhang Yin was still smiling, "I want to set up the Heaven Breaking Army, and you have to keep your secrets,"

Duan Cang looked at Zhang Yin's fearless appearance, and his heart was ablaze. His hands on the table were clenched into fists, but he didn't dare to show too much expression on his face.

Zhang Yin lowered his head, straightened his mask and put it on again, before leaving, he said, "Master Duan, don't worry, I'll give you time to think about it slowly."

The wooden door opened and closed, and Zhang Yin's figure turned around and disappeared into the night. Duan Cang violently smashed the teacup in his hand, and let out a pee angrily. If there is any news there, he will just remove the trash.Besides, Zhang Yin also participated in the events of those years. The imperial court ordered officials to stir up disputes in the Jianghu.

Thinking of this, Duan Cang heaved a sigh of relief, he stood up and walked into the inner room of the study, found a mechanism from the bookshelf, pressed the mechanism, and a book at the bottom of the shelf was slowly moved out, Duan Cang squatted down , took the book away, revealing a wooden box under the cover of the book. This wooden box is controlled by an agency and embedded in the wall. There are bookshelves and books as a cover outside. All the evidence of the face-to-face incident is hidden inside.Originally, these evidences should have been destroyed long ago, but because of today's situation, he kept hiding them.

He opened the box, and there were several letters inside, as well as a seal of the owner, with the words Shen Yuntao engraved on it.

After Zhang Yin left Changchun Hall, Shen Jinyu and Qi Yue followed him and watched him enter the courtyard dedicated to the imperial court.

Qi Yue: "People of the imperial court, why are you so sneaky?"

Shen Jinyu stared closely at the direction where Zhang Yin disappeared, frowning, but did not answer.

"Shen Jinyu? Shen Jinyu?" Qi Yue didn't get an answer, so he turned to call him. Shen Jinyu looked down at Qi Yue and shook his head, "Let's go."

The night was deep, and the bell for the evening rest in Changlin Villa rang. The two of them walked back side by side. When they were about to say goodbye, Shen Jinyu suddenly said, "Qi Yue, tomorrow you will practice the sword by yourself first."

"Huh? What's the matter? Aren't you coming?" Qi Yue asked puzzled.

Shen Jinyu: "Tomorrow is my parents' memorial day, and I will go to worship them tomorrow."

"Oh, okay, you go," Qi Yue watched Shen Jinyu leave after finishing speaking.

Shen Jinyu's back is always full of loneliness.

The next day, I didn't see Shen Jinyu all day, and I heard gossip from other disciples. The current owner and the other three sect owners would go to pay respects to every owner's memorial day in Changlin Villa.Qi Yue also wants to go and see, but after all, her identity is here, and on this special day, she still doesn't want to cause trouble for herself.

Shen Jinyu knelt in front of the ancestral hall, and sat on the altar with two spirit plaques engraved with the names of Shen Yuntao and Xiao Lan, accepting the worship of the audience.

Duan Cang was the last one to offer incense. He twisted up three incense sticks, lit them in front of the candle, made three bows, then inserted the incense sticks into the stove, and sighed sadly, "Brother, sister-in-law, time flows like water Ah, it's been 17 years since you all died in a blink of an eye, and Jinyu is also 17 years old, and now he is a handsome and outstanding man, and I, Duan Cang, have finally lived up to the entrustment of my elder brother and sister-in-law, and raised Jinyu. "

Shen Jinyu knelt down, listening to Duan Cang's "heartfelt" sigh, with a very indifferent expression on her face.
