When Lu Chun returned to his residence, he met his neighbor who greeted him with a smile, looking happy and easy-going.
When the door closed, Lu Chun's smile disappeared and he straightened up. He took a basin and was about to pour water to wash up. When he noticed someone in the room, he immediately used the basin in his hand as a weapon and threw it in the direction where he noticed the smell.
The basin was caught in the dark, and the middle-aged man's voice came:
"it's me."
Lu Chun's tense and sharp expression turned respectful after hearing this:
"I didn't know it was you who came."
"What about An Zhixian?"
Lu Chun: "Yesterday, I heard the tea guest talk about Tianjimen. He was dragged out of the city by his friend named Mr. Xiao to watch the fun. He came back in a carriage this afternoon. He seemed to be seriously injured. I looked at the anxious look on the face of Divine Doctor Wu. Meng Jie He also poured a basin of blood, he must have been seriously injured, he was still awake when I left."
"Since he was seriously injured, why is the teahouse still open?"
Lu Chun: "The teahouse is run by the shopkeeper Zhu Qing. Some old teahouse guests are talking about things, so it's not closed. An Nanfeng settled down with An Zhixian, reported it to the official in person, and followed the official's mission out of the city to investigate the case. It should be back soon."
"How are the people sent by King Jin? Have they discovered you?"
Lu Chun: "That Xu Yan still doesn't know my identity. As usual, every time when Master Yao and others go to the teahouse, he rushes to bring tea to find out the news."
"You're keeping an eye on me, don't let your identity be discovered."
On the outskirts of Beijing, at the entrance of Tianjimen Hall.
The man wearing a smiling mask was lying on the hillside, staring at the bright lights below.
The masked man in black clothes beside him asked in a low voice:
"Master, the young master of Tianji Sect has already fought against Pluto here during the day. Do you still think there is anything wrong?"
Masked man: "I can't tell, I just think it's strange. Is the young master of the Tianji Sect who dominates the world really such a second-generation ancestor who does things regardless of the consequences?"
Masked man: "Probably because of Tianji Sect's strength, life goes smoothly, and he develops his current temperament."
Masked man: "Why is it that every time he makes a mistake, it's because of Mingye Pavilion? If he really has this temper, why have I never heard of it before?"
The masked man thought for a while and then said:
"Perhaps... no one dared to provoke him before? There are rumors in the world that Pluto only acts based on his preference. It is normal for these two thorns to come together and pinch each other."
The masked man thought for a moment, then stood up from the hillside and dusted himself off with the back of his hand:
"Although everything makes sense, I still feel something is wrong... An Zhixian and that Feng Xiaoran are both present... Could it be that I am wrong?"
The masked man said: "Master, you saw the fight between the two. Although there was no winner and the two disappeared during the fight, the young master's kung fu skills did come from Tianjimen. How about that Pluto? I fought against him years ago, and you said his kungfu is the same."
The masked man's mind was in a mess, he thought about it and ordered:
"Continue to explore the whereabouts of the two of them and send people to keep an eye on this place. How are Song Yi and Wuwei Pavilion's investigation going?"
The masked man said: "Wanyuan Sect had dealt with Wuwei Pavilion many years ago, but we found some clues. The master of Wuwei Pavilion seems to be a woman."
The masked man was puzzled: "How could it be a woman??"
The next day.
An Zhixian was seriously injured and bedridden. The news that An Nanfeng reported to the official to investigate the murderer reached the emperor's ears:
"When I was injured, my first reaction was to report it to the official. It seems that it has nothing to do with the Jianghu. There is no need to test it anymore. He is just a slick businessman with some means to save his life. Let him be."
