"This sound of footsteps rushing against the speed of the wind can be heard by no one except Third Brother." Zhu Youjiu stared at the map, "We will be out soon. There are dozens of secret passage exits in this dungeon. If Third Brother can It will probably take another moment and a half to accurately find the passage to the land where we are now."

The three of them stood there, waiting for the torches at the underground exit to light up.

But he didn't expect that a white-yellow light suddenly exploded not far away, and then the mountains began to shake violently.

Pei Yan grabbed the door bolt of the dungeon, "What's going on?"

"I'm afraid the old guy is bringing someone over -" Zhu Youjiu stopped abruptly.

He looked around, and finally his eyes fell on Pei Yan, "How about, Ayan, you go and meet him first? To delay the time or something?"

Pei Yan glanced at him incomprehensibly: "Why me?"

Zhu Youjiu shrugged indifferently, "We are not high-ranking officials, and he will not look kindly on us."

Jing Changkong waved the spear in his hand, "If you want me to go and cut off that old guy's head..."

Pei Yan's heart tightened.

After all, Duan Xunan was also the commander of the Imperial Guard. If he died in Tanzhou like this, Pei Yan, as a person from Jialing Pass, would have to write countless reports. By then, the documents sent to Jialing Pass by the imperial court would be enough to bury him completely alive. I'm afraid he would be buried alive. He was locked in a water prison and couldn't finish writing for three days and three nights... He didn't want to end up not being able to live in peace for the rest of the year just because his second brother showed off his anger.

He raised his hand and forced the rest of Jing Changkong's words into his stomach.

"No, no, no, second brother, are you happy or angry?

, I’ll go, I’ll just go. "

Pei Yan retreated at an extremely fast speed. He rushed from behind, grabbed the door bolt of the cell door, jumped forward, and rushed out dozens of meters away.

Zhu Youjiu and Jing Changkong stood there and covered their mouths and noses with some foresight.

The next second, Pei Yan seemed to have two accelerating air bombs on his back, and suddenly rushed to the mountains far away.

......

Pei Yan waited outside the camp for a long time.

Finally, he saw the old Duan Xunan from a distance.

Duan Xunan walked like an old turtle. Although he was far away, he glanced up and down and looked at him several times. However, this Duan Xunan's eyes didn't seem to be in front. Haven't seen him yet.

Boring people.

Pei Yan leaned against the tree and was about to fall asleep.

Duan Xunan came closer and saw Pei Yan in dark blue official uniform.

He stepped forward quickly and greeted earnestly: "Mr. Pei, what brought you here?"

It's Mr. Pei, not Mr. Pei.

Pei Yan could clearly see Duan Xunan's guilty conscience.

He's getting close.

Pei Yan reluctantly opened his eyes and looked at him with slightly drooped eyelids.

Pei Yan raised his hand slowly, "Second Master Duan, wasn't this place in the Snowy Land sealed off a few years ago? It's rumored that His Highness the Crown Prince is going to build a holiday home here... Why are you here?"

Duan Xunan smiled and replied: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince just said a word, and I will naturally do my best. I, this time, I came to investigate the smuggling of incense under the orders of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Pei Yan smiled half-heartedly and said, "I remember that Mr. Duan was not in charge of the case of smuggling incense, right? Mr. Duan felt that the Ministry of Punishment was not doing well.

profit? "

Duan Xunan lowered his head further and said, "I don't dare."

Duan Xunan pondered for a moment, "It's just that His Highness the Crown Prince suspected that the smuggling of incense was not simple. It might be related to the smuggling of jewelry caused by the theft of Queen Lu's funerary objects, so he specially sent a subordinate to investigate... It was the Jialing Mansion. Why is Master Pei here?"

Pei Yan glanced at Duan Xunan and said leisurely: "Has the incident of perfume smuggling escalated and turned into jewelry smuggling? Mr. Duan is really leisurely. Our Jialing Prefecture has withdrawn the case, but you are still so embarrassed." Are you rushing to check? What are you looking for? "

Duan Xunan was not annoyed and said: "What Mr. Pei said is wrong. The woman suspected of smuggling incense is really strange. Now she has not only received the blessing of the Holy Spirit and resigned from the country, but she has also opened an academy in a key place like Tanzhou. It is really strange. She has ulterior motives, and I do have actual evidence here that proves that she is closely related to perfume smuggling and jewelry smuggling. Why Jialing Prefecture withdrew the case is really difficult to understand."

Duan Xunan turned his gun to crush Pei Yan, but Pei Yan didn't bother to pay attention to him. He only said: "I am not questioning His Highness the Crown Prince, I am just questioning Second Master Duan."

Pei Yan saw all the panic on Duan Xunan's face. He tilted his head and his eyes fell on the sword on his waist. "Second Master Duan, you are already old. I see that your arms are already old." You’re not very flexible anymore, and you’re still swinging around with a knife, and you’re not afraid of hurting yourself?”

As the bright flame burned, the boy beside Duan Xunan was already frightened.

Duan Xunan was not angered by him, but just cupped his hands and said: "Wei Chen received a secret edict saying that an outsider broke into the dungeon.

The offender brought someone here to investigate. I don’t know why Mr. Pei appeared here. The official did not hear any announcement from Jialing Mansion that Mr. Pei was coming to visit. "

Pei Yan didn't have the patience to continue listening to him and glanced at him lazily, "Where am I going and I have to report to Mr. Duan?"

Duan Xunan's face turned pale.

Pei Yan continued: "Mr. Duan is very strange. He is the commander of the Imperial Guard, but there is no Imperial Guard accompanying him?"

Pei Yan looked at the young man behind him: "Hey, you are away from home, doing official business, and bringing servants from the palace with you? It seems that there is no one trustworthy in the Imperial Guard Department."

The boy took a few steps back in panic.

Instead, Pei Yan took a few steps forward and stared at him: "Are you a servant of the Duan family?"

The boy nodded nervously.

"How is that guy Duan Wenyi doing lately?" Pei Yan greeted casually, "I haven't seen him come to race horses for a long time."

The boy hesitated for a moment: "It's very, very good."

Pei Yan kept silent: "What's a good idea? Are you serious about studying?"

The boy's mouth was faster than his heart: "Seriously."

As soon as these words came out, Duan Xunan's expression changed. He knew that a catastrophe had been caused and that all mistakes were irreparable.

Pei Yan chuckled: "A person's first reaction is the most true. Do you think he is serious about studying? But he is a martial artist and never studies, so how can he be serious? Or are you not from the Duan family at all? Then I Let’s take a guess.”

Pei Yan's eyes fell on his chest, "You seem to be dressed the same as us, but in fact you made a big mistake in how you dressed. If it were someone else, you might have gotten away with it, but by chance, I am a I pay attention to people

These...ah, so why do waist badges hang around your neck? Such strange customs seem to only exist among people from the Western Regions. "

Before the boy finished speaking, blood splattered from Duan Xunan's sword. The boy's head immediately fell to the ground with blood dripping from his head.

Duan Xunan sheathed his sword: "Master Pei, this servant has never seen the market. Please forgive me if I was rude to you just now."

Pei Yan said: "Why forgive me? Everyone is dead."
