Jingkou is located in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River and is an important hub for water transportation.The town is densely populated, and restaurants, inns, banks, and escort agencies can be seen along the street.

The day was sunny and cloudless, people were coming and going at the pier, boats were gathering on the river, with tall wooden masts and unfurled flags and sails. Some ships were fully loaded with cargo and were preparing to sail, while others were berthing. In tense unloading.The boatmen were busy and shouting tunes, it was really lively.

At a corner of the pier, after Luo Xunfeng said goodbye to several warrior-like men with knives hanging from their waists, he turned around and walked towards the trestle extending from the pier. The sleeves and tunic gown made him tall and slender. Behind him was the vast river, where clouds and water meet, making the handsome young man look like he came from a painting.

When the two came together, Su Yu asked, "What can the young master gain?"

Luo Xunfeng shook his head, "Not at all, it seems that the people who asked the Cao Gang couldn't find any clues."

Su Yu sighed, "I haven't found any useful information from the boatman these two days."

Luo Xunfeng said, "The other party intends to smuggle, so they must have disguised Long Jinshi as something else to hide it from the eyes of ordinary people. After the incident, they must have destroyed most of the evidence. It seems that it is not an easy task to find someone who knows the relevant information."

Su Yu asked, "Then what should we do next?"

"We have been inquiring for several days, why don't we go back and rest early today." Luo Xunfeng said.

Su Yu wanted to say something more, but found that Luo Xunfeng glanced sideways at him. He subconsciously stretched out his hand and touched his neck. There seemed to be a hot spot on the side of his neck. The scene of passion last night suddenly flashed In his mind, his ears instantly turned red.If it was said that when the Gong family brothers talked and laughed and taught him before, he didn't quite understand, in just a few days, Luo Xunfeng had brought him to experience an unexpected world full of shame and strange joy.

Luo Xunfeng noticed the change in him, the corner of his mouth curled slightly, and he said in a low voice, "Thank you for your hard work last night."

"Ah, no, it's not hard..." Su Yu dodged his eyes.

"Oh?" Luo Xunfeng raised his eyebrows, "If it's not hard, let's continue tonight, we can try again..." He leaned close to Su Yu's ear and whispered.

"..." Su Yu's expression instantly became embarrassed, and his pace secretly quickened.

Luo Xunfeng smiled lightly, and stepped up to follow.

It has been more than a month since the two of them left Cloud Village.

In order to track down Ge Mo's whereabouts, the two decided to start with the smuggling line of Long Jinshi, so they traveled south to Jingkou.

After confirming that Su Yu had fully recovered, Luo Xunfeng asked him for the "double refund" that he said before.

After that, it got worse and became more and more lingering.

He loves the young man's reaction so much, as long as it is his own request, no matter how shameful or embarrassing he is, the young man will cooperate obediently and accept him infinitely.

Because of the shadow of the first time, on the day of "Double Repayment", the young man obediently opened//opened himself, but his small expressions and movements revealed a look of death, Luo Xunfeng felt distressed and funny, exhausted The gentle means let the young people also get a taste of it.

Every time Luo Xunfeng saw the young man's expression mixed with distress and joy, Luo Xunfeng couldn't help kissing his frowning brows, the wet and red corners of his eyes, prying open his clenched lips, and kissing the fine beads of sweat on his body With every mottled welt, he felt a kind of double satisfaction when he saw the young man go from restraint and forbearance to indifference.

He never knew that the connection between body and heart is such a sweet thing, and the ecstasy of the bone is probably the case, and they still have enough time to explore more about each other's taste.

"It's still early, do you want to go shopping?" Luo Xunfeng asked.

The street was crowded, he and Su Yu were very close, their hands touched slightly from time to time.

"Listen to the young master." Su Yu said.

Luo Xunfeng raised the corner of his mouth, "Then take a stroll."

He looked around, and suddenly pointed to one place and said, "Hey, there are many people over there. I don't know what they are looking at. Let's go and have a look." He rushed over.

Luo Xunfeng dragged Su Yu into the crowd, it turned out that everyone was watching the latest notice posted by the government.

Literate people enthusiastically helped everyone read the big red notice, and people started talking after hearing it——

"Oh, the coastal frontier has won another victory. Since the imperial court sent General Dinghai to fight at the beginning of this year, we have good news again and again!"

"Yes, yes, I was still worried when I heard about the defeat last year. It seems that the days of peace at sea are coming soon."

"Isn't that right? I heard that when General Dinghai came, he was even afraid of the enemy's fire/cannon, and each of them exploded//exploded or became a squib."

Hearing this, Luo Xunfeng couldn't help interjecting and asked, "Brother, did General Dinghai send the enemy artillery explosion you mentioned?"

"This is not very clear, but I heard from my friends in the military camp that the enemy is imitating our firearms and making artillery, some are similar to ours, and some have been improved. It is far and powerful, but it will cause problems after only a few times, so how can the fake one compare with the real one?"

"That's right, what's fake can't be true, what's real can't be fake!" At this moment, an old man next to him heard it and interjected.

……

The two stayed in the crowd for a while, and when there was no more news, they turned and left.

"What did you think of, young master?" Su Yu asked Luo Xunfeng.

"It seems that Xunqiu has studied the firearm improvement plan for several years, but he didn't really succeed. His failure is now good news."

Su Yu pondered, "The enemy is defeated, will their spies take more actions in our court? In this case, maybe we will have more chances to find clues of 'Ge Mo'."

"Hmm." Luo Xunfeng frowned slightly.

The two talked while walking, and when they saw an interesting pavement, they stopped to take a look, and walked leisurely along the way.

And at this time, behind them, there were two passers-by walking in the same direction as them, keeping a close distance from them all the time.

……

At the entrance of Rouge Shop in the south of the city.

The two men stopped and lingered for a long time.

"I said, it took too long for the two big men to go shopping in the rouge shop, right? You should buy them all for your three aunts and six wives, right?" One person said to the other, "If it weren't for us two men It's too conspicuous to go in, I just wanted to follow in."

The other person suddenly rolled his eyes after hearing his words, said "no", and rushed into the rouge shop.

The rouge shop was full of female customers, the two of them glanced all over, but there was no sign of Luo Xunfeng and Su Yu, they asked the shop owner, "Where did the two men who came in just now go?"

Both the boss and the customers were taken aback by the fierce appearance of the two men, and many customers dropped the things they were choosing and ran out.

"They, as soon as they came in, they borrowed the back door and went out." The boss shrank his head and pointed to the door beside the counter.

The two looked at each other and chased out through the back door.

As soon as you go out, there is an alley, with a dead end on the left and an alley on the right.The two cautiously approached the entrance of the alley on the right, and stretched their heads to see that it was only a short alley, and they could return to the main street in less than ten meters. They rushed into the short alley, but they only took two steps. Suddenly, a figure descended from the sky, blocking the two of them.

"Hehe, it seems that instead of stepping on the iron shoes, it's better to wait for the news and come to the door." Luo Xunfeng looked at the two people in front of him, and said with a smile.

"Young master is wise." Su Yu said, looking sharply at the two people following them.

The two people were back to back, exchanged glances, and rushed to attack Luo and Su respectively.

However, they soon realized that they had underestimated their opponent's strength. When one of them was beaten to the ground by Luo Xunfeng, the other's long sword was snatched back by Su Yu and lay across his throat.

"Say! Why are you following us?" Luo Xunfeng asked, stepping on the chest of the man on the ground.

"Hmph, villain, let us go, or you will look good!" The man who fell on the ground replied without showing any weakness.

"A villain?" Luo Xunfeng raised his eyebrows, "I've seen a thief shouting "Stop thief", but I've never seen one shouting so confidently."

"Su Yu—" He winked at the young man, Su Yu shot like the wind, and instantly touched several acupuncture points on the man he subdued, the man suddenly screamed, his whole body twisted strangely and fell to the ground .

"Bastard, what did you do to him?" The man on the ground struggled and shouted, but Luo Xunfeng stepped on him and couldn't move.

"It just made him feel a little pain." Su Yu said.

It was definitely not a little bit of pain. From the ferocious expression of his companion, the man who was subdued by Luo Xunfeng knew that he had encountered a master who extorted a confession. He gritted his teeth and said, "Quickly let us go, dare to hurt the officials, are you sure?" It will end well!"

"Official messenger?!"

Luo Xunfeng and Su Yu were both startled.

Su Yu squatted down, touched the person whose acupuncture points he had tapped a few times, and took out a token with the word "Du" printed on it from his arms.

"Are you people from the Imperial Court's Metropolitan Procuratorate?" Luo Xunfeng was surprised, and instantly thought of a bad possibility about the reason for being followed.At the same time, he also saw a gloomy killing intent on Su Yu's face.

"Humph, that's right!" said the man at his feet, "We have left traces along the way, you can't escape, if you are the truth, please obediently go with us, and explain your relationship with Long Jinshi!"

"Dragon Gold Stone?!"

Luo Xunfeng felt that he was confused by these two people.

At this moment, several figures fell on the walls on both sides of the alley, surrounding him and Su Yu.

Su Yu quickly rushed to Luo Xunfeng's side, with Hengjian on his chest, looking around vigilantly.

"My two friends, I advise you not to resist, and to be captured obediently." At this moment, a young man's voice sounded from the entrance of the alley. Luo and Su followed the sound and saw a man wearing a jade crown and a dark red brocade coat. A man in plain clothes came in from the alley.

Against the light, the man walked closer and closer.

Su Yu's hand holding the sword turned slightly. Obviously, the man in red was the leader of the crowd. Then, to capture the thief, the king should be captured first——

Just when Su Yu was about to make a move, the man in red suddenly stopped in his tracks, and said to them with a slightly excited tone, "Brother Wangan, is that you?"

Luo Xunfeng was stunned, "Wang'an" was his name, and he couldn't remember how many years he hadn't heard someone call him that, he frowned and recognized the face of the man in red, hesitantly said, "Are you... …Brother Zehao?”

……

Deyue Tower in the south of the city, in a private room on the second floor.

Luo Xunfeng sat around the table with a man in red named "Fang Zehao", and Su Yu stood silently behind Luo Xunfeng.

The soup is boiling in the copper pot on the table, and the table is full of thinly sliced ​​mutton, seasonal vegetables, wine and dishes.

"Come on, brother Wang'an, I respect you with this cup to celebrate our reunion after a long absence." Fang Zehao toasted Luo Xunfeng.

"Okay, brother Zehao, I also congratulate you for being young and promising, and having a successful official career." Luo Xunfeng clinked glasses with him, and the two of them finished it off.

Fang Zehao took a long breath and said with emotion, "We haven't seen each other for seven or eight years, right? I remember the last time we met was half a year before you left the villa. In those years, my father was the governor of Jiangnan, and I could go to your casting every year. Playing at Rongshanzhuang for a while. At that time your brother Xunqiu was also there. I remember he was not very talkative. Later... After you left the villa, my father was also transferred to the capital. After that, I never I’ve been to Zhu Rong Villa.”

A slight wry smile appeared on Luo Xunfeng's face, "Things are different now, I am no longer the young master of Zhurong Villa, and the villa has been destroyed. In the final analysis, I also want to thank you, the right deputy of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Du Yushi was merciful and did not execute me, a traitor, on the spot."

"Hey," Fang Zehao waved his hand and said in a low voice, "Actually, when the Zhurong Mountain Villa incident happened, some of our colleagues privately felt that something was wrong, but... the holy decree, it is not allowed to speak rashly...you left the mountain villa back then , whether it is a blessing or a curse, maybe God has his own arrangement somewhere in the dark. I am afraid that not many people can recognize you now. I have retreated to the left and right. You can rest assured that today, you are just my 'Brother Wang'an' , I don’t know anything else, I don’t know anything else, haha…”

"But there is something I still want to ask you." After laughing, Fang Zehao returned to the topic.

"what?"

"My subordinates said, you and your followers have been inquiring about the smuggling of Longjinshi for the past few days. What do you want to do?"

"So your unannounced visit to Jingkou this time is also investigating this matter?" Luo Xunfeng asked back.

"You answer my question first."

Luo Xunfeng thought for a while, then nodded, "To be honest, my mentor Situ Yi disappeared in Xiangxi a few months ago. Before that, he sent a letter asking me for help. A case of privately digging a dragon goldstone mine is related to..."

Luo Xunfeng then gave Fang Zehao a brief description of the destruction of the Longjin Stone Mine in western Hunan, but did not mention Luo Xunqiu in the whole process.

"The last clue is at 'Jingkou'. Situ Yi is my mentor. I am really upset. I want to find the real mastermind behind the scenes, so as to comfort my mentor's spirit in heaven."

After Fang Zehao heard the story, he looked at Luo Xunfeng with eyes full of approval, "Brother Wang'an, you really haven't changed. You are affectionate, righteous, smart and passionate."

"Where is it?" Luo Xunfeng smiled, and at the same time peeked at Su Yu from the corner of his eye, and found a not so obvious arc at the corner of Su Yu's mouth. Su Yu felt his gaze, and it seemed to him that Luo Xun Feng hurriedly took back his peripheral vision.

"However, you'd better not interfere in this matter." Fang Zehao's expression suddenly became serious.

"why?"

"..." Fang Zehao hesitated and did not speak.

"Hey, Brother Zehao, I've already told you everything you want to know, so you can't keep it out." Luo Xunfeng raised his glass to him.

The two clinked glasses and drank each other.

Fang Zehao thought for a while and said, "I can only tell you a little information."

"En." Luo Xunfeng nodded.

"You should know the current war on the sea frontier. We seized imitation firearms made of dragon gold stones by the enemy. The question is, how did they get the dragon gold stones? Since September last year, I have been appointed by the imperial court to secretly investigate the smuggling of dragon gold stones. One thing. More than a month ago, I got a clue from the local report, oh, it was the report from Xiangxi. From this point of view, Brother Wang'an really contributed a lot. I learned that Jingkou is the transit hub for smuggling Longjinshi, so I came to investigate , Through the investigation of the Water Transport Yamen and black and white, I finally got a key clue..."

"What is it?" Luo Xunfeng asked.

"Entering the East China Sea from the Yangtze River, there is an unnamed island in that sea area. A group of rogues gathered on it, all of them are desperadoes. The leader is a man named 'Sha Chongtian'. He made a fortune, and now he is involved in the smuggling of Longjinshi."

"If it was a group of pirates that appeared long ago, why hasn't the imperial court wiped them out?" Luo Xunfeng asked.

"Cough..." Fang Zehao coughed lightly, and said, "Firstly, the island where Sha Chongtian is located is extremely secret, and no one has found it so far; Specially deal with them. But it is different now, since they have harmed the interests of the frontier, then I must find a way to wipe them out this time."

"Then is there any whereabouts of the nameless island?"

"Not found yet."

"So that's how it is." Luo Xunfeng thought thoughtfully.

"Brother Wang'an," Fang Zehao reminded him, "You must not spread rumors or nonsense about the unnamed island. You can't find that island on your own. According to me, wait until I wipe out the sand. Soaring to the sky is equivalent to helping Mr. Situ take revenge."

"Thank you, brother Zehao, Xunfeng has his own measure and will not mess around." Luo Xunfeng raised his glass again.

The two drank it all, Fang Zehao said, "That's the end of the topic just now", he pointed to the table, "Look, we were too busy talking, and the dishes on the table haven't been touched, let me tell you, Deyuelou's The hot pot is paired with their special iced sour plum soup, which is perfect for summer.”

He looked at Su Yu who had been standing behind Luo Xunfeng, and said, "Brother, don't just stand there, come and boil meat for us."

"Yes." Su Yu stepped forward according to his words, and stood by the table to cook meat and vegetables for the two of them.

Fang Zehao recalled, "When we were in Zhurong Villa, we also ate hot pot together. Ah, I really miss the days when we practiced martial arts and talked at night while holding candles. Oh, and behind your villa, the mountains are full of people at night Firefly, I remember it was beautiful..."

I don't know if it's the alcohol or the heat of the hot pot, Fang Zehao's young and energetic face is slightly flushed, before he finished speaking, a steaming bowl was suddenly smashed onto the table in front of him, saying "smash" , because the sound of the bowl being put down was really not light.

"Drink sour plum soup." The person who put the bowl was Luo Xunfeng.

Fang Zehao looked at him, and always felt that his expression was a little weird, but he couldn't tell what was weird.

It must be an illusion, Fang Zehao thought, picked up the bowl with a smile and started to drink.

"Master, the soup is almost dry, I'll call Xiao Er to add more soup." At this time, Su Yu who had been silently serving their meal said to Luo Xunfeng.

"Oh, okay..." Luo Xunfeng touched his nose.

Fang Zehao looked at the young man and saw that his eyes were slightly lowered, he looked no different from all the respectful and obedient servants, but he always felt...

"Wait—" Fang Zehao suddenly stopped Su Yu, stood up and walked in front of him, staring at his face carefully.

Su Yu was very uncomfortable being stared at by Fang Zehao, and slightly lowered his head.

"Hey, brother Zehao, why are you staring at my followers?" Luo Xunfeng stood up and blocked Fang Zehao's sight.

Fang Zehao suddenly patted him, and said, "I thought this little brother looked familiar just now, and now I finally remembered! Brother Wang An, it seems that the owner of Luo Zhuang was not so heartless when he drove you out of the village, and let you take him away." The shadow guard you want most."

"Gudu, Gudu", the soup base of the hot pot was tumbling and boiling, and a bubble exploded with a "pop".
