"……it is good."

In the end, it was Shui Miaoer who broke the silence, and a beautiful smile appeared on her delicate face, and said: "Shuijinglou claims to be the best in the world in inquiring information, but now it is trapped by its own murder case, I am really ashamed." It's tight. Now that someone has the clue, how can the little girl have any reason not to listen?"

She lifted her eyelids and gave Xu Mingxi a wink, and the latter immediately made a decision, saying: "Xu is the same, it seems that this time the sewage on the Xuyang Sword Sect has to be helped by Palace Master Chu." Wait until it's washed."

Chu Yan slapped the table, "Okay, you two are really refreshing."

Xu Mingxi smiled slightly, and narrowed his eyes calmly, "Now the situation is complicated and confusing, let alone Shuijinglou, the elder who died had a sword wound caused by the Xuyang swordsmanship. It stands to reason that the Xuyang swordsmanship is extremely suspicious. But Palace Master Chu did not hesitate to join forces with me... Hehe, it shows that Palace Master Chu must have full confidence in the identity of the real murderer."

There was a warm smile on Xu Mingxi's face, only he knew that he still had a word buried in his stomach - there was another possibility, that Jiuzhongdian was the real culprit.

Only the real murderer can conclude without any hesitation that everyone else is pale!

Seemingly seeing that Xu Mingxi was suspicious, Chu Yan squinted his eyes slightly, leaned forward, and said in a low voice, "...Because I know why the jade plaque of the Nine Layers Hall appears in the murder case."

Mo Ren has been silent by the side, but at this moment he raised his eyes and glanced at the Lord.Chu Yan caressed the back of the guard's hand, but said in his mouth: "...Yingfengyingyu, you two should retreat first, go to the city to find a place to stay, and don't bother the water host tonight."

"Yes." Yingfeng Yingyu stood up together, bowed neatly to Chu Yan and walked out.

Shui Miao'er understood, turned around and pushed back the servants of Shuijinglou.Looking at the black-clothed guard beside Chu Yan, he vaguely felt that the Lord of the Jiuzhong Palace didn't seem to have any intention of avoiding this pale and cold young man.

Sure enough, Mo Ren changed from sitting to kneeling without any trace, maintaining a posture that could get up at any time, and whispered to Chu Yan: "Please allow me..."

Chu Yan interrupted him: "I can't stand alone."

Mo Ren paused, then sat back down with his head down: "...Yes."

Shui Miao'er couldn't help laughing, and vaguely knew that this person might have an unusual status in Chu Yan's heart, so she just pretended not to see it, "Master Chu, can you make it clear now?"

Chu Yan lowered his head and smiled, "Well...it's nothing special, it's just that there is a little spy in the Jiuzhong Hall. Gu came to Changqing this time in person, just to follow the vine and find out what is behind the little spy. something."

Shui Miaoer and Xu Mingxi looked at each other unexpectedly again.

The luster in Chu Yan's eyes turned: "Of course, there is no basis for empty talk. But before I explain more, I have a few questions, and I hope the landlord of Shuijing will answer them truthfully."

Shui Miao'er's demeanor became serious, and said: "The little girl must know everything and say everything."

Chu Yan pondered for a while, tapped the table with his fingers lightly, and asked, "What are the names and identities of the two elders?"

"The two elders downstairs in Shui Jing who control the intelligence network of the dark department have been stationed in the secret branch that specializes in coordinating intelligence for many years. One is Zheng Yu and the other is Zhang Ke."

"Is there any enemy?"

"There is no enemy."

"Where did you die?"

"In the wilderness not far from Evergreen City."

"Why are these two people in a remote place in the outskirts?"

Shui Miao'er's expression changed slightly, "This is a long story, and it involves the operation of our Shuijing Building. The main building of Shuijing is located in this small city of Changqing, but the sub-buildings are scattered all over the world. Strange stories and strange things in the world are all in my Shuijing."

She took a sip of the tea in front of her eyes, staring at the shaking tea leaves, "According to the rules, if the sub-floor gets any top-secret information, it will be escorted to Evergreen City by the elders, and handed over to the little girl for decision."

"Oh?" Chu Yan's eyes flashed, he nodded and smiled, "Well, kill people to silence them. It seems that the problem lies in the news, it was robbed."

Shui Miao'er's face was covered with a cloud, and her voice became difficult: "Shuijinglou is doing news business, but it has always been measured, and it is tacit understanding in the world... Although this kind of thing is not the first time. Once, but the elders sent to escort the news are all first-class martial arts figures, and no major incidents have occurred."

"Let's take a step back and say that in the early years, there were people who intercepted news and killed people to silence them. Later, Shuijinglou found out their family background one by one and sold them to their enemies... After several times like this, no one dared to touch the water. Information about the mirror building."

She sighed heavily, and said in a distressed low voice, "And like this time, the two elders died, and we couldn't even find out the opponent...it has never happened before."

Chu Yan sighed secretly when he heard the words.That's true, if you mess with a force that relies on news for a living, don't you end up with the fate of [-] generations of ancestors being picked up and sold?

Dare to attack Shuijinglou and do it so recklessly, there are only two possibilities - either, the opponent is so strong that the whole world doesn't pay attention to it; or, there is someone who will never be found out by Shuijinglou confidence.

Judging by Shui Miao'er's despondent look, it is undoubtedly the latter.

"Tsk." Chu Yan was speechless, "The news escorted by the two elders must have been lost?"

Shui Miaoer nodded, acquiesced.

Chu Yan asked again: "How many murderers are there?"

"...It is impossible to speculate."

"What was the fatal cause of those two elders' deaths?"

"Die from poison."

"Poison? What poison?"

"...haven't found out yet."

Chu Yan raised his eyelids: "Why, is there any difficulty?"

Xu Mingxi said in a low voice: "It's not a common poison in the Central Plains. Miao'er is sending more people to track it down."

Chu Yan's thoughts moved slightly, and he thought of a person, and said: "There is no need to worry about this matter, I will send the shadow protector from the Nine Layers Palace over here."

Shui Miaoer curled her red lips, "Yeah" and said with a clear smile: "I've heard that the shadow protector with the word 'dian' in the Nine Layers Palace is the best at using poison. It seems that I can see it this time."

Chu Yan knew that the owner of Shuijing was well-informed, so he laughed it off, "As for the little spy, I will also call him together, so that you two can have a look."

……

In the end, the three of them made an agreement to rectify and investigate separately first.Wait for the movie to arrive in Changqing, find out the source of the poison, discuss it again, and then make a plan.

So everything settled, Chu Yan and Mo Ren left Shuijinglou.Shui Miaoer sent it outside the gate, "I still need to worry about the drug investigation, the little girl here will thank you in advance." After saying this, Chu Yan was not polite, accepted the gift with a nod, and readily agreed.

Chu Yan and Mo Ren were not far from the exquisite building, and they saw Ying Feng Ying Yu waiting.The two bowed to meet the palace master, and then led them to the inn where they stopped.

At this time, it will be sunset, and it is the time when ordinary people start to go home one after another, and there are many pedestrians on the road.

The lights on both sides of the road were turned on, and all the shops and stall owners, as well as the stall owners pushing the carts and setting up the seats, all seized the last moment before closing the stalls and yelled hard, so it was very lively.

The people in the small town of Changqing are enthusiastic and enthusiastic, and there are especially many people and miscellaneous people these days. For Chu Yan, who has lived in a quiet place for many years, it is no less than falling into the world of fireworks from a fairyland, which is not interesting.

With his hands behind his back, Chu Yan walked unhurriedly, and the scenery along the way came into his eyes one after another.

Joining forces with Shui Jing Xuyang today, everything went smoothly as he wanted for the time being, which made Chu Yan feel very good. He reached out and brought the ink blade behind him to his side, bent his eyebrows and smiled and said: "Ah Ren , I haven’t walked through ordinary neighborhoods in such a leisurely way for a long time, and you should be too.”

Mo Ren took a deep look at the Lord, and there seemed to be some tenderness in his eyes as quiet as the night, and he replied softly: "Yes."

He felt the temperature of Chu Yan's palm, and meditated in his heart, it had been too long, it was like a dream for a long time.

But he himself doesn't know whether the past is like a dream, or the present world is like a dream.There are some things that he really can't think about carefully, for fear that his mind will be disturbed when he thinks about them.

He also heard Chu Yan say: "It's been a long time since Gu has walked side by side with you like this... Ah Ren, do you like it now?"

The two Fengyu and Fengyu were shocked when they heard these words, they quickly pretended to be deaf, and deliberately stepped up a little bit to move forward.

Mo Ren's heart trembled even more. What does the Lord mean by this? Could it be that he would like to... be side by side with the Lord?

He subconsciously felt that it was very inappropriate, but Chu Yan was so obviously happy that he didn't seem to be half-fake. He couldn't bear to sweep away the rare interest of the master, so he simply pursed his lips and remained silent.

Chu Yan didn't get an answer, but he didn't seem to care.His tone seemed to be warmed by the setting sun and colorful clouds, and his phoenix eyes turned to Moren, like ripples in a deserted icy lake: "Today I asked you to sit by Gu's side and walk by Gu's side... because of Gu I think it's good to have you by my side. For some reason, Gu likes it very much when I think I can see you in a blink of an eye."

At the last word of liking, Chu Yan chuckled a few times to himself, feeling as if a feather brushed across his heart, soft and itchy.

Looking at Mo Ren again, he really has lost his soul, showing an expression of disbelief.

Chu Yan couldn't help laughing again, thinking that he probably scared him, but he just relaxed his mind and said those words inexplicably.

He patted the back of Mo Ren's hand, and said: "Don't panic, think it through tonight, don't walk behind Gu from now on, just stand shoulder to shoulder with me, huh?"

Mo Ren's heart tightened suddenly, as if he had just realized what Chu Yan said, he backed away suddenly in shock.

With this retreat, he broke away from Chu Yan holding his hand again, Chu Yan paused, stopped and looked at him in surprise.

Mo Ren was even more at a loss. He looked at Chu Yan, his whole body froze with tension, his light-colored lips opened and closed several times, let alone a sentence, he couldn't even utter a word.

It's not that he doesn't know that the intimacy with the master these days has long surpassed the boundary between master and servant.

It's obviously not that I don't know... just thinking about it, maybe the Lord cherished it for a while, and then unknowingly yearned for the warmth of the previous life that could not be broken even if he was smashed to pieces.

Mo Ren suddenly panicked, he didn't expect that he would be like this... greedy and greedy, and walk to the position of treason alongside the lord?

And the meaning of the Lord is clearly to continue pampering him...

He frowned, thinking how could this be possible?

The author has something to say: some deletions have been made to the conversation between the three of them.
