Chapter 394 Chapter 397
Shen Mu said: "Killing Anlong is imperative. It must be carefully planned and hit in one hit, otherwise it will be difficult to have another chance. You have fought against Shi Zhixuan, according to your estimation, whether Yun Shuai's lightness ability can restrain Shi Zhixuan's 'Phantom magic body technique'?"

Xu Ziling frowned and said: "It's very difficult to judge. If Yun Shuai and Shi Zhixuan fight to a certain destination, maybe Yun Shuai can win. But when it comes to dodging and moving, Shi Zhixuan will definitely win, plus his immortality Yin Qigong, we really can't keep him."

Shen Mu's eyes lit up, and he said, "If we were in the plains and wilderness, wouldn't we have a good chance of killing him?"

Xu Ziling said unhappily: "First of all, you have to break his seal of immortality. How do the three of us compare to the four great monks? Tell yourself!"

Shen Mu said dejectedly: "Is there really no way to kill him? The problem is that the entrance to the treasure house is most likely in the abbot's room in Wulou Temple, so we have to try our luck and hope that he is not in the temple when we go in."

Xu Ziling said: "In order to hide and hide, Shi Zhixuan will not leave the temple unless necessary."

Shen Mu felt a big headache, and said with a wry smile: "Our good luck seems to be in the past. In the past, even if we had no clue about the treasure house, there was always hope. But now the only clue is Shi Zhixuan's lair. With the architectural style of Master Lu?"

Xu Ziling sighed: "Maybe I read it wrong! No! I should not be wrong. Especially the form of brackets protruding from the eaves must be the handwriting of Master Lu. He once drew and explained in the remains of the building, and the patterns are decorated This is the only one, there is no other semicolon.”

Shen Mu's spirit was lifted, and he said, "It's useless to think too much. After killing Anlong, we will go to explore the bridge in the dark, and search brick by stone. There is no need to worry about other things."

Xu Ziling murmured: "Are we asking too much? You have just exposed your identity. With Li Yuanji's character of winning and winning, you will do everything possible to find us out, but we still want to kill Anlong blatantly."

Shen Mu said: "This is called seeking victory in danger. We are surrounded by enemies. If we can't take the initiative, we will only be waiting to be cut off. The best strategy now is to make Shi Zhixuan believe that An Long was raped by the Yin Gui sect." Harmful, is there any way to deceive Shi Zhixuan, a big killer?"

Xu Ziling smiled wryly and said, "Unless you understand the Great Law of Heavenly Demons and do not let anyone see you when you do it, how can you blame Soochow?"

At this time Lei Jiu pointed back and said: "There is news, Yang Wengan is really cunning."

The two were overjoyed when they heard that, and hurriedly poured tea and water, and waited for him to sit down.

Lei Jiu pointed to Xu Ziling and said, "Do you still remember Li Xiong?"

Xu Ziling nodded and said: "He is the deputy leader of Jingzhaolian. He once led his men to grab Xingchanglong's salt goods and was injured by me."

Lei Jiu pointed out: "People from the Hongnong Gang have been watching his movements secretly, and finally detected a batch of salt goods that were shipped from nowhere, and sent to Hongnong to be accepted by Gu Tianzhang of Guangsheng, and then transported to Guanzhong. .”

Guang Shengxing is Xingchanglong's deadly enemy.

Shen Mu asked, "What's wrong with this batch of salt?"

Lei Jiu pointed out: "Of course it's a fake salt product. It's full of arrows. The bow and arrows should be transported separately."

Xu Ziling said: "Why would people from the Hongnong Gang be suspicious?"

Lei Jiu pointed out: "It's all because Gu Tianzhang came to Hongnong to preside over the delivery in person, and the Hongnong Gang guessed that there was a problem."

Shen Mu said: "Where will this batch of goods be sent to Guanzhong?"

Lei Jiu pointed out: "After entering the customs, I lost my shadow, because I was never a local. The Hongnong Gang, which has great powers in Hongnong, has to rely on other friendly gangs when they arrive in Guanzhong. For fear of overthrowing others, Chen Shi dare not invite other people. helper."

Chen Shi is the head of the Hongnong Gang.

Lei Jiuzhi added: "It was quite a turning point to find out that there was something wrong with this batch of salt shipments. In order to deal with the Xiang family, the Hongnong Gang never let go of their surveillance on the Baling Gang, but they accidentally discovered several people who had always been related to Xiao Xian. The close gang sent people to manage and take care of the salt cargo along the way, only to find out that the salt cargo was actually arrows."

Shen Mu said: "This matter is getting more and more fun! Shen Faxing sent the firearms to the Yingui faction, and then the Yingui faction transported them into Guanzhong; Xiao Xian provided arrows to Yang Wenqian, and Xiang Yushan personally went out to help Yang Wengan rebel. If the firearm hadn't fallen into our hands, and Li Shimin didn't know it, maybe Yang Wenqian could really evade the eyes and ears of Tiance Mansion and kill Li Xiaozi in one fell swoop."

Xu Ziling said: "This is called another plan if one plan fails. The host behind the scenes should be Shi Zhixuan. He planned to cooperate with Song Jingang and the Turkic people to kill Li Shimin on the way back from Luoyang, but failed. Of course Li Shimin Therefore, the vigilance was heightened, and Shi Zhixuan had no choice but to arrange a large-scale sneak attack. If we assume this, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji should have been kept in the dark and didn't know about it."

Lei Jiu pointed out: "But if Li Shimin can really be killed, Li Jiancheng will cooperate with Yang Wenqian, and force Li Yuan to abdicate and ascend the dragon seat himself. Li Shimin has gone, who dares to object."

Shen Mu smiled and said: "It's a pity that we messed up the situation. This time Yang Wengan is destined to end badly."

Lei Jiu pointed out: "Don't get complacent too early. Just now Li Yuanji summoned the leaders of all the local gangs and said that the two of you have sneaked into Chang'an, and ordered them to mobilize their forces to find you out. It must be because of Yang Xuyan last night. The loss of the seal made Li Yuanji vigilant."

After Shen Mu told the real reason, he snorted coldly and said, "As long as he doesn't suspect me, he won't be able to find me. On the contrary, Young Master Yong Qin will be more dangerous."

Lei Jiuzhi slapped the table and said: "I still want to make a difference. If Ziling turns back to nothing, it will be seamless."

Xu Ziling said with a smile: "The reason why Zhong Shao can deceive people is because no one thinks he understands medical skills. As for the younger brother, no one will associate the identity of a gambler with me or Shen Mu. Especially Xiang Yushan, who knows better We don't know anything about gambling. Alas! It seems that we are going to join in the fun with Mrs. Hong. With her cover, we can avoid people's eyes and ears."

Shen Mu concluded: "There are two most urgent things in front of us. The first is of course to find out where the treasure house is hidden, and the second is to kill An Long. After these two things are done, we can make a plan to leave this dangerous place as soon as possible. "

Lei Jiu pointed out: "Let me take care of Anlong's side. Xiaozhong had better go back to Shafu. You have a lot of friends now. Someone came to pay New Year's greetings to you but you disappeared mysteriously. That's not good!"

Turning to Xu Ziling, he said, "Why don't you go to see Mrs. Hong today to see what she has planned. The situation is critical, and I will do some tricks at the interface between your fake face and your real face. It might work if necessary. "

After finishing, the three of them split up.

Just as Shen Mu stepped into Sha's house, Sha Fu greeted him and said, "Mrs. Li is waiting for you in the east hall."

Shen Mu asked in astonishment, "Who is Mrs. Li?"

Sha Fu said: "It's General Li Shiji's wife."

Only then did Shen Mu realize that it was Shen Luoyan who came to look for him. He secretly complained of a headache, but said: "Why is she looking for me? I don't know her! The Chinese New Year shouldn't be the day to seek me for medical treatment!"

Sha Fu apologized and said with a smile: "This villain doesn't know either. Miss Wu was chatting with her, and I heard that Li Shiji is a big celebrity today, with military power in his hands. Master Mo wants to give his wife some face."

Outside the door of the East Hall, Sha Fu said: "There are so many people who come to pay New Year's greetings today, and the villain has to go outside to do some shopping. Master Mo will go to see the second young master when he is free. He said he has something to look for you."

Shen Mu agreed, and stepped into the east hall. After introducing the two of them, Sha Zhijing, who accompanied the absent-minded Shen Luoyan, said with a smile: "Madam Li is here to pay New Year's greetings to Mr. Li sincerely, and there are some medical questions that I would like to ask Mr. about."

Then he found an excuse to leave, and when there were only two of them left, Shen Mu smiled wryly and said, "Mrs. Li knows that it is very dangerous to touch the door to find my little brother."

Shen Luoyan said lightly: "You play so well, who would doubt you. Your abilities are always unexpected, and Luoyan has long seen it."

Shen Mu knew her wayward and self-willed style, and sighed: "Madam Li, what advice do you have?"

Shen Luoyan looked out of the window at the fine snow that was still falling intermittently, showing a tired look, and her face was a little haggard and lost that had never appeared on her body.Shen Mu recalled the scene when she fought with Li Mi in the past and ruled the world. Compared with being willing to be a wife and giving up all official positions and powers now, what else can she say to comfort her.

Shen Luoyan sighed lightly, and said softly, "Where is Ziling going? Are you avoiding me on purpose?"

Shen Mu was taken aback. Under such circumstances, Shen Luoyan's entanglement with Xu Ziling, who was already a married woman, had unimaginable consequences.

Shen Luoyan's face turned cold, and said: "Just now there was news from the Tiance Mansion: Ziling left a letter in the name of Gong Chenchun and left without saying goodbye. This matter immediately brought trouble to the emperor. I thought King Qin would be severely punished, but the emperor did not blame him. Come down, it's nothing."

Shen Mu thought that Li Yuan was dealing with the siege of the three giants of the Demon Sect, so he would not be interested in taking care of such trivial matters.

Shen Luoyan looked away at him, slightly annoyed, "Why did the eloquent young commander suddenly become dumb?"

Shen Mu really searched his brains, but couldn't find a word to deal with her, so he was speechless for a while.

Shen Luoyan smiled coquettishly. In the past, when she was talking and laughing and using soldiers, the arrogance of a woman who would not give in to a man seemed to reappear on her body. She slanted Shen Mu's charming look and said, "Why don't Luoyan go to the young commander's banner to be a horse?" Former pawns, or waving flags and shouting from the sidelines, watching the young generals fight chess and dominate the world."

Shen Mu felt a sense of emotion in his heart, although he knew that Shen Luoyan was joking, but he was not without seriousness.As Li Mi's military adviser for many years, Shen Luoyan has always been loyal to Li Mi and regards him as the Allah who can unify the world.

Once this unshakable belief is burst like a bubble by the cruel facts, one can imagine the frustration and decadence in it.

For Shen Mu, the arch enemy who defeated Li Mi, Shen Luoyan has changed from hatred to respect, and changed to another mentality.

Until now, Shen Mu still didn't know what to say.

Shen Luoyan sighed again, his eyes moved out of the window, and said quietly: "To tell you the truth, when the army was defeated, I really didn't want to believe that the world was still bright and beautiful the moment before, and it turned into a completely different world the next moment. The appearance. Everything has completely different meanings. The past and the future have become worthless! At that time, I only felt that my limbs were weak and my heart was in a mess. No one knew what it was like without going through that miserable situation. It's over! It's all over."

Shen Mu wondered if he faced Shen Luoyan's crushing defeat, would he feel the same way?
Shen Luoyan's beautiful eyes were covered with a mist, and she was bewildered and confused. The shrewdness in the past was now replaced by confusion.

Shen Mu felt that what was facing him was no longer a lively and charming military commander, but a body that had lost its vitality and only had a beautiful appearance.

Shen Luoyan hung her head lightly, with a bitter expression on the corner of her mouth, and said in a low voice: "I keep reminding myself to be strong, but I know that the general situation is over, and Mi Gong, who has never been defeated, will behave so badly after a fiasco. , lost grounds, missed a good chance of rehabilitating. All hope is lost, I have to marry Shiji, do you understand? The servants have never said these words to Ziling, but they can’t help but confide in you, young commander, is it strange?"

Shen Mu clumsily said: "Because we are old friends who have known each other for many years."

Shen Luoyan coldly snorted unabashedly: "Friend? You are my nemesis. That's all! Everything is in the past. I want to see Ziling again, can you make arrangements?"

Shen Mu smiled wryly and said, "My little brother just exposed his whereabouts and was almost slaughtered by Li Yuanji. Now the whole city is in a commotion. Can Big Sister Shen gather with Ziling after the incident in Chang'an?"

Shen Luoyan's eyes flashed brightly, and he said: "Do you think I don't know about this? The young commander is indeed powerful. Da Zhi, who has always regarded himself as higher than the sky, actually let the young commander break out of the encirclement and escape without losing a single hair." , This matter immediately spread throughout the city. Until now, people in Chang'an City have realized that the young commander's reputation is well-deserved."

Shen Mu smiled lightly and said, "This is just a fluke, I hope there will be no next encounter like this."

Shen Luoyan shrugged and said, "I still insist on seeing Ziling, what does the young commander say?"

Shen Mu said distressedly: "Don't forget that you are Mrs. Li, going to see Ziling like this is not good for anyone."

Shen Luoyan said fiercely: "I don't care! Tell Ziling that when he dies tonight, I will wait for him at the ferry in and out of Yong'an Canal."

After saying that, he ignored Shen Mu's reaction and walked out of the hall.

Shen Mu slipped back into the room, hesitating whether to find an excuse to leave, when Chang He came beaming.Shen Mu is best at looking at people's brows and foreheads, and said with a smile: "Master Chang looks like a spring breeze, this year will be lucky and auspicious."

Chang He smiled and said nothing, and after a long while he said: "Why don't you take away the peach blossoms, and go to the house on the first day of the Chinese New Year to meet Master Shang."

Shen Mu's heart moved, and he said intentionally: "What kind of intrusion? Did Shang Xiufang tell you personally?"

Chang He said with a smile: "If you want people not to know, you have to do nothing. The news came from the Qi Palace, and it was said that your brother was the first man to come to Xiufang's family's boudoir. Everyone envied you." It's too late."

Shen Mu wondered: "Why is Master Chang in such a good mood, teasing my younger brother so much; and unless the King of Qi sent someone to Shanglin Garden to investigate, how would he know about this?"

Chang He said in surprise: "Listening to what you said, it's true! I thought those people were exaggerating on purpose because of the shadows." Then he showed a sudden expression.

Shen Mu understood what was going on.

Li Yuanji still couldn't clear up his doubts about this fake genius doctor.So after the Persian Temple incident, he sent someone to look for him. Fortunately, he rushed to see Shang Xiufang immediately after saying goodbye to Yun Shuai, so no flaws were revealed.And it was a good time for the Spring Festival, everyone had a carnival last night, and when they woke up in the morning, everyone was still confused, and no one should pay attention to when he went and when he left.However, the spies of Prince Qi's mansion only found out that he had been to Shanglinyuan, so they could make an appointment.Otherwise, Li Yuanji would have come to seek his bad luck.

Chang He was afraid that he would continue to ask, and changed the topic and said: "I really got promoted!"

Shen Mu said happily: "Congratulations! Congratulations!"

Chang He Zhi said proudly: "The emperor announced a series of promotions and transfers this morning, and my younger brother is on the list. Starting today, my younger brother will be one of the four major commanders in the capital. He belongs to the emperor's close generals, thanks to my brother." .”

Shen Mu humbly said: "I'm just pushing the boat along the way, if Mr. Chang hadn't always been favored by the emperor, how could he be in this position today."

Just as Chang He was about to speak, the second young master Sha Chenggong hurried over and said, "Mr. Mo, I had a hard time finding you! Don't you want to go out again?"

Shen Mu hurriedly said: "I was going to find the young master, and happened to bump into Mr. Chang to talk to the villain. Isn't the second young master in a hurry?"

Sha Chenggong said to Chang He: "Master Bai from the Ministry of War has just arrived, brother-in-law is still not going to greet Master Bai?"

Knowing that Sha had managed to get rid of him, Chang He still had nothing to do with him, so he had to plead guilty and leave.

Sha Chenggong sat down and said: "Mr. Mo will do me a favor this time."

Shen Mu asked patiently, "Is it about Xi'er?"

Sha Chenggong said: "It's not because of her. Sigh! How should I put it? Dazhi is a Turkic ghost who is notorious for playing with women in Chang'an. I heard that there are women who committed suicide after being abandoned by him, but Xi'er is like It's like I don't know."

Shen Mu wondered: "Since there are such things, the second young master can just tell Xi'er directly, why should I help?"

Sha Chenggong said: "Just now I went to look for Xi'er. She and Mrs. Qingqing went to the Foguang Temple outside the city to return to the gods, and I was about to go out, so Mr. Yang gave Xi'er a warning on my behalf."

After Sha successfully left, Shen Mu stepped out of the room, just bumping into Chang He who led Li Yuanji's general Yu Wenbao to look for him, so he had to call the two of them back to the small hall to talk to each other, muttering in his heart that Yu Wenbao and Yu Wenbao were only the same as going to the Linyuan night banquet. Yuan, why did Yu Wenbao pay a special visit.

After drinking two sips of hot tea, Yu Wenbao said with a smile: "King Qi ordered my younger brother to come and ask Mr. What kind of disease do everyone in Xiufang suffer from?"

Shen Mu still couldn't figure out the meaning behind his words.

There are two possibilities: one is that Li Yuanji is Shang Xiufang's admirer, and he cares about everything about her, so let's see if there is anything he can show his attention to.

Another possibility is very worrying, that is, Li Yuanji clearly grasped that he didn't know where to go for a period of time between seeing Li Xiuning leaving the palace and going to Shanglinyuan, and that happened to be the moment when Shen Mu was in the Persian Temple, so he sent Yu Wenbao is here to test.

But after thinking about it, it doesn't seem like the second possibility, because Yu Wenbao is a relatively straightforward and rough guy, and he is not suitable for this kind of task of sniffing out the wind.If it was Mei Xun who came, the situation would be very bad.

In fact, Shen Mu and Shang Xiufang never talked about treatment. Fortunately, Shen Mu knew from Sha Chenggong that Shang Xiufang had been suffering from migraine all along, so he was not left speechless, or prevaricated indiscriminately, and said bravely: "Miss Xiufang is suffering from migraine, but after I gave acupuncture, it has improved a lot. King Qi really cares about Miss Xiufang very much."
