ink blade

After a while, a blueprint was spread out in front of several people.It outlines the simple terrain, the shape of the corpse lying on the ground, and the sword marks on the surrounding surface and the corpse.

"Master Chu, please look," Xu Mingxi said, pointing, "Thanks to Miao'er's carefulness, someone drew the appearance of the murder case at that time."

"This sword technique is indeed a technique of my Sunshine Sword Sect," he said with shame on his face. "When the headmaster heard the news, he was furious and thoroughly investigated the whole sword sect, but so far...the sect has not found any thieves."

Chu Yan took the drawing and looked at it for a while, but didn't see anything special.Just as he was about to return the blueprint, he suddenly noticed that Mo Ren was leaning towards him, pursing his lips and giving him a wink.

Chu Yan's heart moved, and he said, "Ah Ren, do you have something to say?"

Mo Ren whispered: "My lord, let me tell you."

This person refused to speak when he was asked to speak just now, but now he speaks on his own initiative, it must be something really important.Even if it was so prudent and repeated, Chu Yan couldn't help feeling sour, and said in a low voice, "Just say it."

Moren nodded lightly, tapped the blueprint with his index finger, and pronounced the words clearly:

"To kill, don't use your sword like this."

"This is planting."

The tone of these words was calm, but it fell into the ears of Xu and Shui, but it was no less than thunder on the ground!

Especially Xu Mingxi, who has been in a state of desperation for many days, can't help but see a light of surprise in his eyes at this moment: "Mr. Mo's words are serious!?"

The corners of Chu Yan's lips raised uncontrollably, and he squinted his eyes leisurely and said: "With the ability of Master Shui, I must also know that Ah Ren was born as a secret guard of the Nine Layers Palace, and has followed Gu for many years since he was a child. It's not as good as him, in the Jianghu..."

——As a result, before finishing a sentence, Mo Ren turned over and knelt down first:

"My lord praises me, my subordinates are mere killers, how dare I compare with my lord!"

"..."

Chu Yan is so angry...

He opened his eyes angrily in an instant, and slammed his palm on the table: "What absurd praise, why do you only praise the Lord's wisdom one by one, and you can't boast if you want to boast? You still care about boasting you alone!? "

Mo Ren was speechless, and it took a long time before he said: "...Subordinate, I dare not."

Chu Yan poked his sleeves over, grabbed Mo Ren's shirt and picked him up: "Still kneeling? Get the hell out of here!"

"..."

Xu Mingxi and Shui Miaoer looked at each other in astonishment, and they both saw confusion in each other's eyes.

This Palace Master Chu... What's going on? ?

It was mentioned just now that Bai Hua didn't even frown, why did he suddenly get angry now, because - his guards wouldn't praise him? ?

The relationship between the master and servant from the Nine Layers Palace is too weird...

On the contrary, Mo Ren was much calmer. He obeyed the order and got up quickly, sat back on the chair, and then continued to bow his head in silence.

After so many days...he felt that he was used to it.

I have been with the master for a long time, from a secret guard who can only kill people to a personal bodyguard who serves tea and pour water to coax the master to check for spies, from being under the master of the palace to a slave who is demoted to humiliation, after being reborn, his mood fluctuates greatly ...

Guard Mo felt that his ability to adapt was better than assassinating and detecting enemies.

Sure enough, Palace Master Chu quickly extinguished the fire by himself, poured two sips of herbal tea, and coaxed him with a pleasant frown: "Forget it, I don't want to scare you... Tell me more? "

——This has almost become the way the master and servant get along.Specifically, if Mo Ren thinks that what he said is good, the Lord himself will be inexplicably angry.

Then he calmed down inexplicably, and finally came to coax him inexplicably.

In this process, Mo Ren only needs to keep silent after pleading guilty.When the lord calmed down, he continued what he had just said.

At this time, Mo Ren continued to talk: "The murderer chooses to kill people on a dark and windy night for concealment. If you want to conceal, the first choice is poison killing. Poison killing can not reveal whereabouts, do not reveal martial arts skills, or even It can be done not by personally poisoning, but by borrowing the hands of others."

"Arrows and flying knives are the next best thing. A wise man doesn't need to show his face, but he personally wields a sword and fights short-handedly. It is the next choice. The murderer obviously has poison, but he still chooses to use the sword. It is unreasonable."

Mo Ren raised his face as he spoke, the silent young guard in black always restrained his aura almost non-existent when he was beside the Palace Master.Until now, when he raised his face from the shadow of the hall master, outsiders caught a glimpse of his cold eyes.

...It seems to be an ancient sword that has gone through vicissitudes and has been washed by misty rain several times.The long wind blows, the dust is scattered, and it is still sharp when it is unsheathed.

"Even if you are holding a sword," Moren stated unhurriedly, his fingers slid across the blueprint, "you should hide in the dark, waiting for an opportunity to kill with one sword, so as not to cause trouble. There are traces left on the body and the surrounding ground, obviously intended to frame the blame... just like the Jiuyun jade tablet that appeared at the murder case."

At some point, only the voice of the guard in black was speaking in the inner hall.

Chu Yan leaned back, bent his fingers to support his forehead, fixed his eyes deeply on Mo Ren's face, and sighed unintentionally between his teeth.

... In his previous life, he failed to listen to Ah Ren's advice, so he really lost his mind.

But Mo Ren suddenly realized that he thought he had made a mistake in his judgment, so he immediately bowed his head and said, "This subordinate is lying, please correct me."

Chu Yan raised his hand to caress his shoulder, and sighed helplessly: "Gu thinks Ah Ren is powerful, you don't call Gu to praise you, can't you just sigh?"

Mo Ren was silent for a while, and said in a low voice: "Now the ingredients of the poison have not been found out, and all the above are just my subordinates' private guesses."

Chu Yan sighed again, pulled Mo Ren's cold hand over, wrapped it between his closed palms, and stopped talking.

Xu Mingxi and Shui Miao'er gradually came back to their senses, and then looked up and down the ink blade again, their eyes were completely different.

Born in the dark hall of the Nine Layers Palace, the personal bodyguard of the owner since childhood, the first sharp blade of the Nine Layers Palace... Also, to be favored by Chu Yan so far, is it really not an ordinary person?

Afterwards, the few people talked a lot more openly, and even had dinner directly at the Shuijing Building.

In the end, it is tentatively decided to remain unchanged to meet all changes. If the people behind Bai Hua really colluded with the emissary of the lord's mansion, it would be difficult to find evidence to scare the snake away.It's better to stand still for the time being, and let's see what the purpose of the trip to the lord's mansion is.

At night, Chu Yan finally took his ink blade and left.When I left the Shuijing Building, I saw the clouds outside and the wind calming down, the moon was on the branches, and the small town was peaceful at night.

Xu Mingxi and Shui Miaoer sent him out of the building, and then watched the two figures disappear at the end of the alley.

The evening wind blows the blue shirt and purple skirt.After a while, Xu Mingxi asked in a deep voice: "Miao'er, what do you think of this Palace Master Chu?"

Shui Miaoer bit her lower lip and said hesitantly, "It seems... that there is some deviation from the news I got in the building, no, the deviation is too big. I thought this person would be more..."

"What's more?" Xu Mingxi smiled, his eyes were deep, "Greedy for beauty, domineering, moody? You've been going back and forth, and you've tested him several times in an open and honest manner, aren't you afraid that Chu Dian will take the initiative to get angry?"

Shui Miao'er secretly covered her lips, her eyes flickering: "How can it be, isn't he only angry because Mr. Mo doesn't praise him?"

After a few breaths, he shook his head again, and said calmly: "Actually, I never thought that the Lord of the Nine Layers Palace would come in person."

"After all, the suspicion of the Nine Layers Palace is no better than your Sunshine Sword Sect. Your family has left a real sword move... But any killer will carry the highest token of his sect with him and throw it away. At the scene of the crime? This is not even like setting the blame, but more like insulting or mocking."

Shui Miao'er spoke slowly, rubbing her sore waist from sitting for a long time, "I thought that the master of Jiuzhong Hall would be so angry, but I didn't expect this person to go out to investigate in person..."

"But like this," she suddenly looked back with a smile, and touched Xu Mingxi's chest affectionately, "it's more like what you told me...that young man who overthrew all the young talents of the Sunshine Sword Sect with a sword... The proud son of heaven, isn't he?"

Xu Mingxi said in a low voice: "That's true."

"As for that Mo guard..."

Shui Miaoer raised her head and looked at the crescent moon hanging above her head.She said softly: "Perhaps, that is a sword in a sheath."

"And in this world, perhaps the only one who can make the blade of the sword come out of its sheath and be stained with blood is the Lord whom the sword personally recognizes."

……

But it was said that Chu Yan and Mo Ren left Shuijing Tower and walked all the way back to the inn.

Too many things happened today, Chu Yan was preoccupied, he walked while thinking, and his steps slowed down unconsciously.

The Alliance Lord's Mansion suddenly intervened... After thinking about it, about [-]% of this unprecedented change happened to Bai Hua.

Before he left, he had deliberately entrusted Yang Yifang to relax the vigilance in the palace.Presumably, the little spy spread some news when he and Ah Ren left the palace together, and unexpectedly pushed Huang Tianyou, the leader of the martial arts, to make a move.

I don't know the power behind Bai Hua, and what is the relationship with the leader's mansion... I don't know when the film will be available, let's take a look at the poison that killed the elder of Shuijinglou...

Chu Yan thought about it and stopped.Suddenly turning around at a certain moment, I saw that Mo Ren was following upright, just two steps behind.

If the master walks slowly, he will slow down too; when the master stops, he will stop accordingly, raising his eyes to ask.

It was obviously a expressionless face, but it was obedient from head to toe.

Chu Yan's heart was so soft that he thought about all kinds of things during the day, and suddenly an old shadow appeared in front of his eyes.

It was the silhouette of a cold and dignified young man in black, with long hair tied high and a black sword at his waist. He stood two steps behind him all the year round, and could speak in his ear just by bending over.

It was someone who was once young, who hadn't been urged yet, enough to bear a high-spirited... ink blade.

After all, there was a layer of identity, and Mo Ren didn't talk much when he was a teenager, but at that time he was really favored by Chu Yan, and in fact he rarely had any extra scruples.

Whenever he noticed something, he leaned lightly into the little master's ear and spoke, his voice was really pleasant, cool, faint, but very firm, with a sharp edge.

——"My lord, Ah Ren feels..."

——"No, my lord, please listen to Ah Ren."

——"Master! How can you be so reckless..."

——"Thank you, Lord, for your concern. It's just a minor injury, and Ah Ren is fine."

Scattered in the memory, "Master" and "Aren" one after another.

Chu Yan gritted his teeth violently, his chest sore and cracking.He couldn't even remember how such a distinctive voice was gradually obliterated over the years.

I can't remember when in the previous life, Mo Ren called himself "subordinate" more than "A Ren", until he never heard the latter again...

At the entrance of the quiet alley, two shadows staggered and fell on the ground.

Mo Ren couldn't help but took a step forward to see Chu Yan's expression.

He didn't understand why the Lord's expression became so...sad for a moment.

It seemed as if something precious was just passing away at the fingertips, and it couldn't be kept no matter how hard it was grasped.

Is it for Bai Hua?

Because Bai Hua was mentioned today?

After all, he is someone who has loved for ten years, even though Bai Hua's love is false, the Lord's love is true.

Is the Lord sad because of this, for a traitor, no, for a spy who had ulterior motives from the beginning?Bai Hua is just a villain who can only use his sincerity, how is it worth it...

As a result, Mo Ren's chest also felt a dull pain, and he chopped Bai Hua into pieces thousands of times in his heart, but he called out cautiously on his face:

"...My lord?"

Chu Yan came back to his senses all of a sudden, and the cautious expression of the black-clothed guard in front of him came into view.

Feeling pity and remorse at the same time, he waved to the guards and forced a smile: "It's nothing, I'm distracted. Ah Ren, come to Gu's side."

Mo Ren obediently walked to Chu Yan's side, and sure enough, his wrist was gently pulled up again.

The guard thought about it for a while, and decided to have a rare chance to find out, and not to ask more questions.

Unexpectedly, the master looked away inadvertently, sighed and said, "You... being a lonely bodyguard, I really wronged you."

"When this matter is over, how about isolating a deputy hall master for you?"

The author has something to say: Palace Master Chu is about to step on thunder again...
