Chapter 4: The last clue to Sunrise City, the master is hard to be a confidant

Zhuo Fengyu recognized at a glance the villain with unknown motives who was brought in by his disciples and was hiding in Wuming Mountain. Kang Ningjing stared at that person for a long time, as if confirming something, then turned to ask Zhuo Fengyu, "Senior Zhuo , What is the relationship between Qianlong Jianzong and him?"

"Master Kang Ning knows him?" Zhuo Fengyu asked without answering.

Perhaps the disciple of Qianlong Sword Sect carelessly opened the wound when he was carrying him up, and the blood that had been stagnant began to flow out from the wound again, gradually converging into a puddle from dots of bright red.

After taking a bath, Kang Pingjing changed into clean Qianlong Jianzong disciple uniforms, and the Qianlong Jianzong disciple uniforms were all moonlight white, which contrasted extremely sharply with the bright red on the ground.

"My master said that seniors should call me Ah Jing. If seniors call me the owner of Kang Ning, the master always feels that his seniority has been called a generation higher by you." Kang Ningjing walked around the man twice, " I'm not sure if it's him...but if it's him, why would he appear in Wuming Mountain..." Suddenly thinking of something, he half-kneeled beside the man, and started to untie the man's belt .

The blood stained Kang Pingping's hem, but Kang Pingping didn't care: it was Qianlong Jianzong's clothes anyway.

Qi Haoan saw that Kang Ningjing pulled out the man's belt and threw it casually, and was about to take off the man's clothes. Regardless of Zhuo Fengyu's presence, Qi Haoan shouted, "Master Kangning, you have such a strong taste! You like to do this You should be more subtle about such things, choose a time when no one is around!"

"Don't talk nonsense." Zhuo Fengyu glared at Qi Haoan, "Ah... The owner of Kang Ning is here to check if there are any obvious signs on his body." Although Zhuo Fengyu's first reaction was the same as Qi Haoan's.

Rather than calling Kang Ning the owner, Zhuo Fengfeng would rather call Kang Ning Jing A Jing, but since it is Tianjizi's request, it is better not to bother.

There were many old scars on the man's back, and Kang Ningjing turned the man's front side upside down.

A strange pattern branded on the man's chest can be seen impressively, and there are also two deep scars on this pattern.

"Sure enough, it is Sunrise City." After confirming, Kang Ningjing quickly got up, stood a little further away from the man, and said to Zhuo Fengfeng, "That brand should be imprinted on the prisoners who were exiled to Sunrise City."

Sunshine City was originally a barren land. Although it was close to the capital Luocheng, the people's customs were outrageous, the economy was underdeveloped, and the city was extremely chaotic.Every few years, the imperial court will escort some criminals with high martial arts skills and heinous crimes to Xuyang City to be branded, and then stay in Xuyang City under the supervision of the city lord.But most of the prisoners are brutal, bloodthirsty, and difficult to control. Some even dared to kill and plunder at the gate of the city lord's mansion. They were so arrogant that even the officials appointed by the emperor were not in their eyes.

It was such a dirty place, but Tianjizi insisted on building the disciples' Kangning Village nearby.

Therefore, Kang Ningjing sometimes wondered whether Tianjizi and Jiang Da, the founder of the Qianlong Sword Sect, had a spiritual friendship. Their vision was so far-reaching and unique that ordinary people like them couldn't figure out the meaning behind it.

Kang Ningjing never expected that Ye Lingyun, the desolate prince of the former dynasty, would be entrusted to Xuyang City, and he never expected that Grand Tutor Gu Bai, who is respected as the world's Confucian teacher, would also follow Ye Lingyun to take office in Xuyang City, and even more so. It was never expected that under the rule of the new city lord Ye Lingyun, in just two years, Xuyang City will take on a new look, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the order in the city is orderly.

Kang Ningjing originally thought that with such a big change in Sunrise City, it would not be too much to sing praises to this little prince Ye, but now that he thought about it, he seemed to have overlooked a very important thing: where did the prisoners brought by the court go? ?

The previous city lords of Xuyang City all died at the hands of those prisoners with strong martial arts skills. After Ye Lingyun took office, he never heard about those prisoners.

Zhuo Fengyu had heard about the achievements of the new city lord of Sunrise City for a long time, and talked with Kang Pingjing for a while, but found that Kang Ningjing knew nothing about him except that he was a prisoner of Sunrise City. It was still the Lord Ye.

In desperation, he wanted to know the prisoner's sleeping hole and ask himself, but he saw that the color of the blood under the prisoner's body was different, from red to black, and the prisoner's lips changed from white to blue, which was a sign of poisoning.He reached out and probed the prisoner's nose again, and found that the prisoner had already lost his breath.

No one expected this mutation.

The sky was about to brighten, but Kang Ningjing didn't expect that it would be nothing in the end. He only knew that it was related to Xuyang City, which cast a veil on the already unclear matter.And when the veil is lifted, they may find nothing, or more complicated relationships may be involved.

Kang Ningjing covered his mouth, as if he didn't want people to notice that he was yawning, but doing so was often more obvious and attracted more attention from others.

After Zhuo Fengyu ordered his disciples to take Kang Ningjing back to the room to rest, he went to Duan Tong's room, wanting to talk to Duan Tong, but unexpectedly, as soon as he reached the door of Duan Tong's room, Qing Xiao's voice came from inside.

Qing Xiao asked Duan Tong back, "Brother, do you think that person seems to have been seen somewhere?"

Zhuo Fengfeng remembered that he had sent Qing Xiao and Duan Tong to Xuyang City, so he pushed the door open and asked, "Do you also think it is Xuyang City?"

Duan Tong Qingxiao in the room was shocked.

"Why do you have such an expression?" Zhuo Fengfeng asked Qingxiao interestingly.

Because no matter what Duan Tong is thinking in his heart, whether he is happy or sad, there is only one expression in Zhuo Yufeng's eyes, that is expressionless.So Zhuo Fengfeng didn't realize that there was something strange about Duan Tong.

"It's just that I suddenly remembered that the wanton people from Wuming Mountain had met in Xuyang City." Qing Xiao deliberately missed Zhuo Fengyu's searching eyes and replied, "Brother and I were in Xuyang City at that time, and I happened to see him and A group of prisoners were escorted into Sunrise City."

Seeing Qing Xiao's eyes dodging, Zhuo Fengyu naturally didn't believe it, but when Qing Xiao mentioned that the two of them were present when the criminals were taken into Sunrise City, he asked, "Then where did you take those prisoners after they were branded?"

Qing Xiao thought about it for a while, and looked at Duan Tong with a questioning look.

Duan Tong shook his head without thinking about it.

"Master, why don't you ask the owner of Kang Ning? The owner of Kang Ning came from Xuyang City." Qing Xiao suggested.

Zhuo Fengfeng had no choice but to say, "He also doesn't know anything about it." No, to be more precise, up to now, Zhuo Fengfeng has not discovered that Kang Ningjing knows everything well. Tianjizi has been taught like this, Tianjizi will only mislead his disciples!

"The things on this table..." Zhuo Fengfeng glanced at the table, then at Qingxiao Duan Tong.

Qing Xiao was afraid that Zhuo Fengyu would ask about Duan Tong's hand injury and she would not know how to answer, so she cleared away the bottles and cans on the table, and retreated from Duan Tong's room.

As soon as I breathed a sigh of relief outside, Gu Xu's voice sounded in my ear, "Senior brother, what are you doing with these things outside the door of Senior Brother's room at this hour? You want to go in and find Senior Brother?"

Qing Xiao turned around, Gu Xu seemed to be smiling, not knowing where he had just come back from.

"I'm about to go back to my room, junior brother looking for senior brother?" Qing Xiao replied.

"I'm going back to my room too, let's drop by."

In Duan Tong's room, Zhuo Fengyu waited for Qing Xiao and Gu Xu to go far away, and he couldn't hear the slightest footsteps before asking, "Qing Xiao gave you Jinchuang medicine, are you injured?"

With a serious and upright face, Duan Tong answered Zhuo Fengyu, "I was careless for a while, and was injured by a hidden weapon." It was exactly the same as the answer to Qing Xiao just now, and looked directly into Zhuo Fengyu's eyes.

Zhuo Fengfeng still couldn't find any other expressions on Duan Tong's face.

"How is the Seven Changes of Returning to Yuan?" Zhuo Fengfeng said what he really wanted to ask.

Hearing the words "Guiyuan Seven Transformations Jue", Duan Tong was taken aback, and then thought of the absurd scene that appeared in his mind when he was practicing Guiyuan Seven Transformations Jue last night.

Even if Duan Tong's expression remained unchanged this time, Zhuo Fengyu could still see that something was wrong.

That feeling of uneasiness arose in Zhuo Yufeng's heart since Duan Tong broke through the fourth layer of Guiyuan Seven Changes Art, and it spread day by day.

Zhuo Fengfeng remembered that he also went through a very difficult time in confusion and choice when he was practicing the fourth to fifth layers of the Seven Changes of Returning to Yuan.Looking back now, I feel even more ridiculous what I thought at that time.

Duan Tong's gaze became deeper and deeper, but he didn't speak.

Seeing Duan Tong like this, Zhuo Fengyu knew that he had also encountered some troubles, and it was troubles that were difficult to talk about.

"I've taught you for so many years, I thought you had the way of the sword in your heart," Zhuo Fengyu shook his head, "I didn't expect there to be other things."

Duan Tong remained silent, his posture and expression in front of Zhuo Fengyu remained unchanged, even the arc of his frown remained unchanged.

Zhuo Fengyu finally found that the more painful thing than teaching martial arts to a stupid piece of wood was trying to relieve Duan Tong, who was expressionless, to help him break through the bottleneck.

The long silence made Zhuo Yufeng unable to sit still, and when he stood up and was about to push the door out, he finally heard Duan Tong ask, "Then what should I do?"

"Give it up," Zhuo Fengyu said, and after waiting for a long time, Duan Tong didn't respond, so he could only say, "Or grasp it, it depends on your choice."

Duan Tong thought about Zhuo Fengyu's two words several times, and said in a firm tone, "Master, you give up."

Zhuo Fengyu didn't expect Duan Tong to say that, he froze in place, then opened the door, leaving a sentence, "I have to let go, your question makes me wonder what else do you want besides swordsmanship?" .”

Duan Tong looked at his left hand, which had just been medicated, the fragments of fallen leaves on the wound were removed very cleanly, several scars were intertwined and it was impossible to tell whether they were caused at the same time.

He closed the door, and there was no light in the room. With the only light being blocked by the door, he fell into the unknown darkness.

Zhuo Fengfeng doesn't need to be curious about what else Duan Tong wants, because Zhuo Fengfeng will definitely know.
