Luo Kedi finally stopped looking at the moon in the sky. Instead, he lowered his head and looked at Zhang Ren and said, "Go ahead, just follow your heart, but be careful in everything."
Zhang Ren bowed his hands towards Luo Kedi and left the small courtyard.
After drinking all the wine in the wine jar, Luo Kedi jumped off the wall and said unconsciously: "Hey, this apprentice is really careless. He could have chosen a shortcut, but he chose a muddy path full of thorns. Road, but this is how I, Luo Kedi, look like a disciple, not bad."
As Luo Kedi spoke, the corners of his mouth turned up unconsciously. If Zhang Ren saw this, his jaw would definitely drop.
Wasn't Luo Kedi a passionate young man back then? He admired Zhang Wuji, followed Zhang Wuji's orders after Zhang Wuji left the Ming Cult, and was willing to serve as the master of Xiao Ming King Han Lin'er. At that time, Luo Kedi was definitely a hero for the country and the people, but too many things happened later, and Han Lin'er died. Unexplainedly, in order for the world to no longer fall apart, Luo Kedi had no way to take revenge, and he finally realized that personal bravery was useless in many cases.
Luo Kedi was finally defeated in the face of reality. He was unable to display his martial arts skills in vain. His martial arts were superb but could not defeat the conspiracy. Luo Kedi started drinking. It seemed that only in a drunken dream could he numb himself better. At the same time, in order not to Having failed Zhang Wuji and Han Lin'er, he lost all his passion and only took it as his own duty to protect Han Qin's safety.
Luo Kedi thought that this would be the end of his life, but unexpectedly, under Jiang Wei's introduction, he accepted Zhang Ren as his disciple.
In fact, Luo Kedi didn't pay much attention to Zhang Ren's apprentice at first, but he found that Zhang Ren was favored by Zhang Wuji and Zhang Sanfeng. He had learned the Nine Yang Manual and the Great Shift of the Universe. In the face of evil forces and conspiracies, he Zhang Ren never bowed his head and gave in. His passionate energy was so similar to his back then.
So Luo Kedi didn't want Zhang Ren to die. He was not only protecting Zhang Ren, but also protecting the blood in his heart that had not completely dissipated.
Luo Kedi threw the wine jar in his hand and disappeared into the vast night.
…
Zhang Ren hid in the darkness all the way, trying his best to avoid the soldiers patrolling the city at night. The curfew did not impose any restrictions on him. He had the status of a royal guard. As long as he showed his waist card, the soldiers of the city patrol department naturally did not dare to embarrass him. But now Zhang Ren didn't trust the City Patrol Division at all. After all, a noble son like Li Mao, as the City Patrol Division, Cao Du, had something to do with the Jiumen. Zhang Ren was afraid that the other officials of the City Patrol Division would also collude with the Jiumen.
In that case, as long as Zhang Ren shows his Jin Yiwei waist card, I am afraid that the city patrol department will immediately pass the news to Jiumen, and then alert the snake. How should Zhang Ren act?
Zhang Ren's goal this time is very clear, which is the Feitanmen of Daisy Lane. These people are all professional pickpockets. There are only a few people with strong martial arts skills. The most powerful one is the deputy sect leader Gao Jian, who is best at just Qinggong.
Of course, Zhang Ren didn't plan to completely wipe out Feitanmen in one night. After all, Gao Jian was good at Qinggong. If he wanted to run away, Zhang Ren knew that it would be difficult to catch him. He just wanted to tell Jin Changchuan through his actions that he had no intention of surrendering to Jiumen or the Dark Master. Now that Zhang Fu had made arrangements, Zhang Ren no longer had any worries.
Just like Ji Gang told Zhang Ren, Feitanmen is easy to find in Daisy Lane. After all, there is only one decent house around here.
Zhang Ren jumped onto the wall and found that this place was just like a secret door. It was completely dark and there was not even a lighted room.
Zhang Ren observed it and found no useful information, so he jumped down.
Before he came to the main house, he planned to capture the thief first, but when he entered the house, he found that there were no people in the house, and there were no daily necessities left.
Zhang Ren searched several other houses and finally determined that there was no one inside Fei Tanmen.
It seems that the Nine Sects are still quite vigilant. Even if Zhang Ren deliberately spread the news of being banned, for the sake of safety and unnecessary losses, the Feitan Sect still moved all members.
Zhang Ren still refused to give up and started searching Feitanmen again. After searching for a long time, he couldn't find any useful information or letters. Come to think of it, Feitanmen is full of pickpockets and they do all kinds of things. How could such petty theft work leave any useful information?
Zhang Ren had no choice but to leave.
He planned to go to Chunhua Lane to have a look again. After all, Jin Changchuan lived there, and Jin Changchuan relied on his martial arts skills, so he probably wouldn't evacuate.
But when Zhang Ren arrived at Chunhua Lane, he was disappointed. Jin Changchuan was not there, and he seemed to have left in a hurry. He didn't even close the door to his home.
This is very unreasonable.
Jin Changchuan said that the Nine Sects wanted to cooperate with Zhang Ren. Feitanmen withdrew out of caution. Then it would be unreasonable for Jin Changchuan to withdraw. He left. If Zhang Ren agreed to cooperate, where would he be found? go?
Zhang Ren also searched around Jin Changchuan's residence, but also failed to get any useful information.
There was really nothing he could do now, so Zhang Ren had to go back to Jinyiwei to sleep, but he tossed and turned on the bed and couldn't fall asleep no matter what.
When it was daylight, Zhang Ren went to James's house to study. Zhang Fu did not follow Zhang Ren to James's house in order not to hinder Zhang Ren.
Fu Rang arrived relatively early today. When he saw Zhang Ren come in, he sat next to Zhang Ren and asked, "Do those assassins have any clues?"
Although the assassins rushed towards Zhang Ren that day, Fu Rang was also injured. Fu Rang also saw the atrocities of those assassins with his own eyes. As a nobleman, it was the first time for him to see that kind of situation. Those splashing The blood spilled and the innocent people who died in vain made Fu Rang feel uncomfortable when he thought about it. He was also eager to find out the identity of the assassin.
Zhang Ren shook his head and said: "The identity of the assassin has been found out, but the person behind them has not yet been found out."
Hearing what Zhang Ren said, Fu Rang lay down on the table behind him like a deflated ball.
"I didn't expect that even Jin Yiwei could find something unclear." Fu Rang sighed and raised his head.
However, Zhang Ren said: "It's not that the Jin Yiwei couldn't investigate, it's that the Jin Yiwei never investigated. I have been investigating this matter alone."
Fu Rang was puzzled and quickly sat up and said, "You are the only one investigating? Why is that? You are also the flag of Jinyiwei after all."
Zhang Ren then explained: "Those assassins are attached to a huge organization, and many courtiers have been bribed. Otherwise, why do you think so many people would file a petition to impeach me? So I don't trust the Jin Yiwei people at all."
Fu Rang looked like he suddenly realized, "No wonder, when my father saw that I was injured, he went to the government office in person. The government office also promised well, saying that the culprit would be arrested, but now the government office Then I didn't do anything. I thought someone in Yingtianfu Yamen was bribed. I asked why my father told me not to worry about this matter. My father is a keen and careful person. He must have smelled something unusual in it. place."
