My house was confiscated and I was exiled. I emptied the emperor's warehouse and fled.

"The disciple has met the master."

When Wu Shaohan saw someone in the room, he immediately calmed down and walked into the room, bowing to Qingxuan who was sitting there.

Shi Er, who was opposite Qing Xuan, had already stood up and stood beside Qing Xuan. His usual laughter and fun had long since disappeared, leaving only a solemn look.

"You came back so late, where have you been?" Qingxuan asked seemingly casually, turning the tea cup in his hand.

However, Wu Shaohan's expression changed slightly, and he leaned forward and replied: "Disciple, I went to transfer the internal energy to Jiang Xiaoliu, which made the master wait for a long time."

"His uncle Zhong Wei will do this kind of thing on his own, so you don't need to worry about it." Qing Xuan's voice suddenly turned cold, "Master gave you leave, not to let you run around."

Wu Shaohan immediately knelt down and said, "Yes, I know my mistake, please master to punish me."

"I won't do it next time." Qingxuan rarely relaxed his control and just stopped.

After Wu Shaohan thanked him, he stood up and poured tea for Qingxuan.

"Eighteen new shadow guards have been released this year, and they will report in soon. When the master has finished selecting the shadow guards, you will be responsible for assigning the remaining ones to their places."

"Master..."

Wu Shaohan's hand holding the pot trembled slightly and he looked at Qingxuan in surprise.

The master's broken body has been restored, and he can remain in power for several more decades. There is no need to transfer power now.

Qingxuan glanced at him: "Why, you don't want to share the burden for me?"

"Disciple doesn't dare, I will obey my master's orders." No matter what Qingxuan's plan was, Wu Shaohan could only agree to it for this reason.

Qingxuan said again: "Do you still remember the recall?"

Wu Shaohan and Shi Er were immediately frightened and said "yes" at the same time.

The strict rules of the Shadow Guards returning to the camp once a year, confessing their mistakes and subjecting them to torture are enough to frighten all the Shadow Guards who leave the camp.

At the end of last year, due to the great changes in the Qin family, they moved to Youzhou. The headquarters had not been rebuilt yet, so it was not implemented as scheduled.

Now that the camp was completed a month ago, the headquarters staff have been transferred here one after another, and we can get back on track.

Qingxuan said sternly: "Tomorrow you go to the master to ask for instructions, and then issue a recall order, and try to complete this long-delayed matter within the period of filial piety of the master."

The blood on Wu Shaohan's face faded, he stood stiffly, and forgot to respond for a moment.

He has always behaved himself and abided by the rules, and he has never lied or concealed anything during his recall.

Xiaoliu was a girl, and his affection for her was already against the rules. If he confessed, the consequences would definitely not be something he could bear.

But if he conceals it, he will have no place to stand as the executor of the recall.

For a time, he was pushed into a dilemma.

"Huh?" Qingxuan didn't get a response for a long time and glanced away.

Wu Shaohan suddenly came back to his senses, he had already made a decision in his heart, and said as if he was about to die: "Yes, my disciple will return to Beiling Village early tomorrow morning."

At this time, Shi Er, who was anxious for him, walked up to Qing Xuan and plucked up the courage to say: "Commander, can you postpone the recall until the end of the year, so that we can be held accountable after two years."

"You want to change this rule?" Qingxuan asked displeasedly.

"I don't dare! It's just..."

Before he finished speaking, a palm filled with strong wind waved towards his face.

Shi Er didn't dare to dodge, so he was slapped hard and his whole body tilted to the side.

He immediately stabilized his body and knelt on the ground, reluctantly begging for mercy: "I know my mistake, please forgive me, Commander."

"Master, calm down..." Wu Shaohan just said, but he saw a silver light flying out from Shi Erxiu and heading straight towards Qingxuan's front door.

"Xiao Yin!" Shi Er rushed forward in shock, but missed.

Wu Shaohan stood in front of Qingxuan with an arrow, reached out and pinched the little silver snake that was coming, and started at the seven inches of the snake.

As long as he exerts a little force, the little silver snake will be killed on the spot.

The little silver snake's body was completely frozen, not daring to move. It can be said that it was full of desire to survive.

"Brother Wu, please be merciful, that's Madam's snake!" Shi Er raised his head and prayed nervously, his exposed side face was red and swollen, his palm prints were clearly visible, and bloodshot eyes were faintly oozing from the corners of his mouth.

Wu Shaohan naturally knew that this was Madam's snake, otherwise he wouldn't have grabbed it with his bare hands, but would have cut it in half with a dagger.

It's just that Shi Er's concern caused chaos, and the person he was supposed to beg for mercy from was mistaken.

Seeing that Little Silver Snake was not in danger for the time being, Shi Er leaned over to Qingxuan and begged for mercy: "My subordinates were unlucky in guarding Xiao Yin and almost injured the commander. I am willing to accept any punishment. Please spare Xiao Yin's life."

Wu Shaohan also held up his hands and begged for mercy: "Master, Xiaoyin is just a small animal that has not yet been tamed. Please consider its ignorance and spare its life."

Qingxuan narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Shi Er who was kneeling on the ground with his head buried low, and asked in a cold voice: "Is it a poisonous snake?"

Shi Er's sweat dripped to the ground, and his voice trembled: "Yes, but I carry the antidote with me and will never let Xiao Yin bite innocent people to death."

After hearing this, Qingxuan decided not to pursue the "assassination" of Little Silver Snake and returned to the original theme, "I know that you are extremely opposed to the recall, but!"

Qingxuan paused for a moment, looked at the apprentices and subordinates who were standing and kneeling with majestic eyes, and reprimanded: "Go and see other similar organizations. Are there any of them who don't raise gu by using their hands to dye the blood of their companions? Only by fighting hard can one survive?

You have not been completely trained into an inhumane tool, and you have been able to retain your human nature, but you still dare to complain about the strict rules. Are you tired of living? ! "

Shi Er immediately confessed: "Commander Rong Zhen, my subordinates are grateful for the kindness of their master and have absolutely no complaints. Please be aware of this, Commander."

Wu Shaohan was ashamed and knew that Shi Er was beaten because of him. He was just about to take the blame, but after hearing what Shi Er said, he had to swallow his original words and said: "Disciple, too."

"It's best this way!" After Qingxuan finished speaking, he gave the two of them a warning look and walked towards the door.

Wu Shaohan returned the small silver disguised as a ribbon to Shi Er and sent the master to his residence.

Before retreating, Qingxuan said: "Xiao Wu, if you want to lead the entire shadow guard camp, the first thing you must do is to be merciless. Otherwise, once a shadow guard turns against you, you and I will not be able to bear the disaster of eating the master." Got up."

"Yes, I will keep this in mind, my disciple. Thank you Master for your teaching." Wu Shaohan responded respectfully.

It seems that the master realized that he hesitated just now and mistakenly thought that it was because he couldn't bear to carry out the recall.

That's fine too.

When Wu Shaohan returned to his room, Shi Er was sitting on a chair, muttering to the little silver snake lying on the table.

Seeing Wu Shaohan come in, he immediately stuffed the little snake into his sleeve, stood up and asked, "Brother Wu, did the commander punish you?"

"No." Wu Shaohan closed the door with his backhand, took out a bottle of medicine from his body and handed it to Shi Er.

Shier waved his hand: "I've already applied it."

Wu Shaohan took back the medicine bottle and sighed: "Don't disobey the commander next time."

Shi Er grinned, then touched the wound in his mouth, gasped with a hiss, and asked worriedly: "What are you going to do?"
