"As soon as the shadow master waved his hand, the two powerful cavalrymen in my eyes and their horses were torn apart and turned into corpses scattered on the ground. Then the shadow master asked me if I would like to learn skills from him and become a better person. people?
I nodded in agreement without any hesitation. The Shadow Master is so powerful, like a god. Follow him and become as powerful as you can one day. As for being a master, I have no interest in it. I only want to avenge my dead relatives. "
"Wait a moment."
Rong Fei suddenly raised his hand to interrupt Zheng Ziqiu's memories and spoke in a serious tone.
"Fortunately, you are also a scholar. You should know that when you praise a person, you can't just use monotonous and unpicturesque words like strong. You should first introduce the person's appearance, such as sword-shaped eyebrows, starry eyes, and a nose as bold as a gallbladder. , and then describe the height, fatness and thinness, specific characteristics, etc. in detail. This makes it easier for the audience and readers to understand and imagine more intuitively."
"Haha! Rong Baotou doesn't need to use such sweet words and beat around the bush. First of all, even if I know the identity of the shadow master, I won't tell you. Secondly, I have never seen the true appearance of the shadow master. So Rong Baotou, you are wasting your efforts. .”
"In ten years, I haven't figured out the true identity of the Shadow Master. It seems that you are not a core figure in Shadow Killing."
Rong Fei continued to stimulate the general.
"Yes, in terms of intelligence and cultivation talent, I am average. This is an indisputable fact. The Shadow Master knows people well and makes good use of them. I have no dissatisfaction. Besides, even those who are ranked before me are the same. I don’t know the true appearance of the Shadow Master. In this regard, the Shadow Master has always treated everyone equally, without favoring one over the other.”
"So mysterious? Then how can you tell that the shadow master you see is not someone else pretending to be someone else?"
"momentum!"
Zheng Ziqiu replied without hesitation.
"The aura that the Shadow Master exudes all the time is unparalleled, and no one in the world can imitate it."
Zheng Ziqiu's face showed a look of fanaticism.
"Let's continue talking about Shadow Kill."
Rong Fei curled his lips and said.
"From that day on, I followed Shadow Master and officially became a member of Shadow Kill. Shadow Kill is different from ordinary sects. It has no fixed location. All members are named by numbers and are arranged in order according to their personal strength. The higher the status, the more resources can be mobilized, and at the same time, one can gain the attention of the shadow master, practice more advanced techniques, or receive rewards such as spiritual treasures and elixirs.
When I joined, there were only twenty-three people in Shadow Kill. They were distributed in Kyoto and surrounding prefectures and counties according to the shadow master's orders, and they were each planning things that could leverage Dayan's luck. Initially, the members of Shadow Kill did not know each other, and only the Shadow Master knew everyone's identity. In recent years, as more and more people join, the things they do become more and more complicated, and the original rules are gradually no longer followed.
The original twenty-three Shadow Kill veterans have died and been injured over the years. Currently, eleven of them are still in Shadow Kill. They still strictly abide by the rules of non-interference and non-recognition of each other, and their identities remain mysterious. The film owner also has great trust in them and has great authority. "
"So, you don't know the true identities of these eleven people, right?"
"Haha, I will naturally say what I can and need to say. Don't have extravagant hopes for the rest."
"Okay, you continue."
Rong Fei said while pouring wine for Zheng Ziqiu.
"No, that's all I can say about Shadow Kill."
When Rong Fei heard this, he immediately stopped and put the wine bottle and wine glass in front of him.
"Are you so stingy? With the crimes I have committed in Kyoto over the years, if you catch me, I will definitely die. Can't I just drink a few more drinks before I die?"
Zheng Ziqiu shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"This monkey wine was obtained with great difficulty by someone hiding it in a manure pit. It is extremely precious. The ones you just mentioned are only worth two glasses."
Rong Fei said seriously.
"That being the case, I do have some things that Captor Rong is more interested in that I can exchange for. Just wait."
After that, Zheng Ziqiu stood up, picked up the drunk and unconscious Ling Xujie, and walked towards the house.
Rong Fei did not stop him.
"Bah! You just hid in the grave. I just..."
"Shut up!"
The voices of Bai Zizai and Murong Canghai came from outside the courtyard gate.
Not long after, Zheng Ziqiu came out of the house holding a book. He glanced at the courtyard door, then sat down on the stone bench and handed the book to Rong Fei.
"These should be exchanged for two glasses of wine."
Rong Fei opened the book, glanced at the contents, and handed the porcelain bottle of monkey wine directly to Zheng Ziqiu.
"Drink as much as you like."
"Thank you!"
Zheng Ziqiu thanked him with a smile, and then drank directly from the bottle without using a cup.
"What a waste of natural resources!"
Bai Zizai's voice of condolences came from the outer gate of the courtyard again.
"Ahem!"
After drinking the entire bottle of monkey wine in one breath, Zheng Ziqiu seemed to be choking and couldn't help coughing violently.
As he coughed, purple-black blood flowed from the corners of his mouth.
Rong Fei, who was flipping through the book, looked up at Zheng Ziqiu, shook his head and sighed.
"But do you have any last words?"
"Ahem...if one day you find out the truth about the Dunzhou disaster, write it down on paper and burn it in front of my...ahem...grave."
Zheng Ziqiu said while coughing up blood, his body swayed and he fell on the stone table, no longer breathing.
The courtyard door was pushed open from the outside, and Bai Zizai and Murong Canghai walked in one after the other.
"What a powerful poison! Are you just going to watch him commit suicide out of fear of crime?"
Bai Zizai asked Rongfei after checking Zheng Ziqiu's body.
"It's a little selfish. Although it is not an exaggeration to punish him for the crime he committed, I still can't hate him, alas!"
Rong Fei sighed after putting the book into the storage jade ring.
"It's a waste of time for you two. I'm afraid I won't be able to repay this favor."
"You're a female businessman! Even if you don't fight and you don't help much, you still have to work hard. You can't expose it with such a light sentence. You have to have a drink to console yourself. And Ah, don’t arrange it for me next time. After all, I am also a handsome and elegant sword-gear walking around the world, so I have to show my image. As long as you know about the dung smearing thing, I know the heaven and the earth, but you are not allowed to talk to other people. People mentioned it.”
Bai Zizai muttered unhappily.
Upon hearing this, Murong Canghai stepped sideways and distanced himself from Bai Zizai.
"It's okay to drink, but not tonight. I have to visit an old friend later."
"Okay, let's get in touch then."
Bai Zizai waved his hand towards Rongfei, and then reached out to pull Murong Canghai's sleeve. Chinese website
Murong Canghai, on the other hand, avoided it in disgust, raised his hand to Chao Rongfei and jumped over the courtyard wall.
Not long after the two left, a group of detectives from the Ji Xian Division arrived.
After Rong Fei said a few words, he left the small courtyard and went straight to Jinfeng Xiaoyu Building.
"I have met Uncle Fencheng."
The turtle man who was in charge of reception at the door quickly saluted Rong Fei and said respectfully.
"Miss Yunxiang, do you have any guests tonight?"
Rong Fei took out a five-tael banknote and handed it to Mr. Turtle and asked.
"Oh, this is unfortunate. Miss Yunxiang is not feeling well today and did not come downstairs."
Turtle Gong did not refuse, and replied with a smile after thanking him profusely.
Although Chang Huaien is the biggest playboy in Kyoto, he has a very good way of doing business. He will never play with girls from his own brothel when playing with women. Moreover, he also takes great care of money trees like Yunxiang, and specially prepared a house for him in the city for him to rest after work.
After Rong Fei asked about the specific location of Yun Xiang's house, he said goodbye and left.
After finding the house according to the location provided by Mr. Gui, Rong Fei stood in front of the door and knocked on the animal head knocker.
After a while, the door of the house opened a crack, and a little firelight shined through the crack in the door, illuminating Rong Fei's face.
face.
The elderly concierge looked Rong Fei up and down and asked cautiously.
"May I ask, sir, what do you want me to do?"
"My father-in-law, you are polite. I, Rong Fei, am an old friend of Miss Yunxiang. We have something important to discuss with you. I hope that I will let you know."
"It turns out to be Mr. Rong, please wait a moment."
The concierge responded and closed the door again.
Rong Fei stood outside the door and waited for almost a cup of tea when he heard rapid footsteps inside. Then the courtyard door opened, and a figure rushed out from the crack in the door.
Rong Fei took a closer look and saw that it was Yunxiang's personal maid. She was breathing rapidly, her hair was disheveled, her face was red, and she looked frightened.
"Mr. Rong is in trouble, my girl...she is missing!"
"Don't be anxious, speak slowly."
Rong Fei patted the maid on the shoulder and comforted her softly.
After hearing this, the maid took a few deep breaths to calm herself down.
"Uncle Zhang just informed me that Mr. Rong is here to visit you, so I went to knock on the door of the young lady's room. There was a bright light in the room, but I knocked on the door for a long time but there was no answer, so I pushed the door open and went in. The result was There is no one there. Miss...Miss, she...is missing. Mr. Rong, will Miss be kidnapped by the gangsters?"
The maid grabbed Rong Fei's lapel and asked with tears in her eyes.
"Don't worry, your lady will be fine as long as I'm here. Stop crying now and take me to your lady's room."
"Yeah, yeah, Captain Rong, you must get the lady back."
The maid nodded repeatedly and ran towards the room where Yunxiang lived with Rong Fei in a hurry.
It was already late at night, and the whole house was almost dark, with only the light in the room where Yun Xiang lived.
After following the maid into the room, Rong Fei smelled a light and elegant aroma, and then glanced around the room.
The layout of the room is very simple, with a couch, a table and a chair. There is a dressing table opposite the bed and next to the window. The wall on the left is a whole wall of bookshelves, which are neatly filled with all kinds of books. and picture scroll.
The bedding on the bed was neatly folded, and there was no sign of anyone having slept on it.
There is a candlestick on the left and right corners of the desk, with half-lit red candles inserted in the candlesticks. There is an open book in the middle of the desk. Next to the book are papers with writing on them, a brush dipped in ink, and an inkstone.
Rong Fei walked to the book desk and picked up the upside-down book. There was no name on the cover of the book, but the content inside was very familiar. It was the thirty-five poems that Rong Fei recited in the Golden Wind and Drizzle Building that night. and an article "Yueyang Tower".
What is written on the opened page of the book is the song "Qing Ping Diao" that Rong Fei gave to Yun Xiang.
"Happy May Day to all my book friends!"
