After saying goodbye to the Ge family, the three of them still returned from the same road from the backyard. After leaving the door and returned to the inn, Yun Yi looked at Chu Ling and said with some depression: "You don't plan to sell my face when you see him." Chu Ling smiled and touched his head, and said with a smile: "If we agree as soon as we say it, that's stupid. Even if he wants it, I won't dare to agree."

Yun Yi slapped her hand away and said, "What does it mean?"

Chu Ling sighed and said, "Think about it, a person who has been incognito for more than ten years, suddenly one day he met someone who looks very similar to your former relatives. It happened that this person is really your relative. What do you think? Do you feel very happy that your relatives have been reunited or do you think that your identity is exposed and someone wants to test you?"

Yun Yi frowned and said, "If he doubts my identity, why would he invite us to meet? Isn't that arousing the enemy? Why isn't he more convenient and secretive than sending someone to investigate secretly?"

Yun Xingyue held his chin and smiled, "Young Master Yun, it is not that easy to find news in this world. Mr. Ge Er is just the deputy commander of Si'an's southern army. Even in this small Si'an County, there is a commander to restrain him, let alone outside?" Yun Yi has either followed Jun Wuhuan or Chu Ling these days. Even in the Baili Family in the Southern Dynasty, although it is not as good as before, it is still a century-old family. Yun Yi is afraid that it is difficult for an ordinary person to find out the news in this world.

Yun Yi frowned and looked at Chu Ling, "What should we do now?"

Chu Ling said: "Wait."

Yun Xingyue said: "We have time to wait, but Mr. Ge probably doesn't have time to wait."

Both of them were stunned and looked at Yun Xingyue. Yun Xingyue raised his eyebrows and smiled at Chu Ling with a smug look, and the light seemed to be flashing in his eyes, "Please beg me, beg me." Chu Ling was speechless, slowly pulled out the dagger in her sleeve and smiled sweetly at Yun Xingyue.

Yun Xingyue felt a chill on her head, and she touched her nose and flashed to the side, saying, "Don't you two see it? That Ge Danfeng is seriously ill."

"Are seriously ill?" Yun Yi was shocked and stood up to hold Yun Xingyue's sleeve, "Brother Yun, what disease does he have?"

Chu Ling also frowned slightly. Ge Danfeng's face did not look very good, but it was not as good as he could tell that he was seriously ill. After all, only a few people look good these days.

Yun Xingyue patted his hand away and thought, "It can't be said that he was sick, right? To be precise... he should be poisoned."

"Poisoned?" Chu Ling frowned, "Where is someone poisoning him in this kind of place? Did he block someone's way?" Yun Xingyue spread her hands and said, "I don't know this. Isn't this your business?" Chu Ling nodded, "What poison has he been infected? Can it be cured?"

Yun Xingyue said: "It's not a powerful poison, but it's hard for ordinary doctors to detect it. I'm afraid it's treated as ordinary wind and cold. When the poison is really emitted, the gods can't save it. Then again, this poison... is actually quite common in the Tianqi Dynasty."

"Common?" Yun Yi said: "Why haven't I heard of it?"

Yun Xingyue smiled and said, "Of course you have never heard of it. Most of the people who use this poison are in the deep palace or the inner backyard. This poison needs to be continuously drained for a long time to be effective. The effect is too slow and troublesome. Few people have the patience. Anyway, if I want to kill someone, I will never use this poison."

Chu Ling said thoughtfully: "So, is the one around him who wants to kill Ge Danfeng?"

Yun Xingyue said: "It can only be the people around him. There can be no one who sneaks into him every day and stuffs the medicine into his mouth."

Yun Yi could not help but listened to the two of them discussing slowly how Ge Danfeng was poisoned. He couldn't help but say, "Let's go and ask him, can't you know?" Yun Xingyue said, "What's the hurry you are? You can't die for a while. Moreover, if it's someone he trusts very much, do you think it's useful to say it? Why did he keep the people around him and trust you, a cousin who has just met?"

Yun Yi gritted his teeth and said nothing. He understood the truth, but he still couldn't help but worry about Ge Danfeng.

Chu Ling whispered: "Yun Yi, don't worry. Since the other party wants to kill Ge Danfeng without any trace, he must have something to do. The other party has not got what he wants yet, so he will not easily kill him." Yun Yi nodded and asked: "What are we doing now?"

Chu Ling said: "Young Master Yun, please help me find out the news about Si'an County. The more careful the better. Yunyi, stay in the inn and don't run around. I have something to do."

Yun Xingyue nodded, and he naturally understood what Chu Ling wanted him to inquire about the news. It was not really asking her to inquire about it, but asked him to go to Lingxiao Trading Company's spies in Si'an County to inquire about the news. Although Lingxiao Trading Company could not have spies in all counties, there would definitely be places like Si'an with 20,000 troops stationed there.

"Okay, what are you going to do?"

Chu Ling smiled at him and said, "I'll go to the magistrate's office."

Yun Xingyue thought about it and said that with Chu Ling's strength, a small county government office was naturally not a big deal. So she nodded in agreement and just said, "Be careful."

"Thank you, I understand."

Even though Wu Nuo made the county government like an iron barrel to ordinary people, the county government was just a county government, not a palace. Wu Nuo was not a Ming king, so it could not help the masters of the underworld. So for experts of Chu Ling at the level, there was actually no difference. After dark, Chu Ling sneaked into the backyard of the county government. The quiet air in the backyard was filled with a strong aroma of wine and powder. It seemed that there was a faint smell of blood. Chu Ling frowned slightly, stood in the shadow under the low wall and listened carefully to the movements around the person. After a while, he decided to go towards a small building at the junction of the backyard and the front yard.

This is a three-story building. It used to be a library or a place to store documents in the county government, but it is obviously not the use now. There were many guards guards guarding the entrance of the building. Chu Ling did not alarm these people, but went around behind the building and quietly rushed to the second floor. As the weather was cold today, the windows on the second floor were closed, and only a faint light was found through the window paper. Chu Ling leaned against the bed, listening to the laughter and noise coming from inside, and was obviously having a banquet.

Chu Ling was about to poke a hole to see what was inside when he heard a sharp and short scream from a woman from upstairs. The people inside obviously heard it, and only a man laughed and said, "I don't know what kind of way my father came up with to look back and ask for advice."

Several other people also agreed.

Chu Ling narrowed his eyes slightly, no longer stayed on the second floor, but quietly went up to the third floor.

The third floor seemed much quieter. Even Chu Ling leaned against the window and could only hear the short breath of a woman and the voices of two men.

Chu Ling reached out and poked a hole in the window paper. Looking through the small hole, he saw a girl wearing only a thin red dress lying on the ground trembling under the dim candlelight. Not far away, there were two middle-aged men, one of whom was a member of the Clan, and the other of whom were from the Central Plains.

The man from the clan laughed and said, "Brother Cheng, this girl woke up today. Since you like it, you will take it back."

The man of Tianqi looked at the girl on the ground with dim eyes but full of disgusting lust. He took a sip of wine and smiled, "Then I'm not polite." The man of the tribe smiled, "You and my brother, you are naturally blessed to share the same politeness. But this girl is very keen and needs good conditions. Don't let her hurt Brother Cheng."

The man of Tianqi smiled and said, "What's the fear of a weak woman?" After that, he suddenly picked up the knife placed beside the table and picked it up into the charcoal basin next to him. A burning charcoal fire flew towards the girl. The charcoal fire fell on the girl's smooth back, but the girl once again let out a tragic cry, rolling on the ground in pain. The place where the charcoal fire was touched, had already become charred black in a moment.

The two men looked at the trembling girl in pain on the ground and laughed loudly at the same time.

"Brother Cheng, don't you Zhongyuan people say...what, do you pity the fragrant jade? It's meaningless to burn a little beauty like this."

The man Tianqi looked proud and smiled, "He is just a pretty girl, so how can he be considered a beauty? It's her use to make us smile."

When the man from the clan heard this, he was very interested, "Oh? It turns out that Brother Cheng doesn't like this girl. What kind of girl is that Brother Cheng said to be considered a beauty?"

The man of Apocalypse smiled and said, "If you want to talk about beauty, the best one in my life is a pair of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law I met more than ten years ago. Although I looked a little embarrassed at that time, I was really good-looking. Especially the mother-in-law, although she was a few years older, she really... tsk, it's a pity that the two women were both strong and died by disagreement."

Whether it is the man of the gentry in the room or Chu Ling outside the room, he can naturally hear it. What this person regrets is not that these two women died, but that he died before he succeeds. It is probably because he can't get it, that he has been thinking about it for so many years.

The man from the clan smiled and said, "Those who can be praised by Brother Cheng must be a rare beauty. It's a pity. If Brother Cheng is interested, I will choose a few girls with good looks and send them to serve you another day."

The man of Apocalypse raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Thank you then. Brother Wu invited me here, it's not just for women, right?"

The man from the clan smiled and said, "It's still Brother Cheng who understands me. I really have something to ask my brother for help."

"Even if you say it, I'll do it for you if you don't make things difficult for you." The man of Apocalypse said generously.

The figure of the man from the clan became a little gloomy and said, "Brother Cheng, the one named Ge under your command..."

"Ge Danfeng? Why, did he offend you?" The man of the Apocalypse said in a deep voice. The man of the Clan sneered and said, "It's not considered offending me, but... he ruined me a good thing a few days ago."

"Oh, what do you mean?" The man of Apocalypse said with great interest: "Ge Danfeng has never liked to get involved in things, so why did he dare to ruin your affairs?"

The man from the clan sneered and said, "The people under my command went to do business and were killed. I sent someone to check it out. That day, he was the only one who led the people to pass by that place. Who do you think he is not?" This statement is actually a bit far-fetched, and the man of Tianqi didn't care. He nodded and said, "So that's the case. Killing people at will is really lawless. I will definitely give Brother Wu an explanation." Ge Danfeng looked like a taciturn person who didn't like to manage things, but his reputation in the army has been quite low in recent years. He had long disliked him. If he could find a reason to keep him, it would be better.

Chu Ling leaned against the window and watched the man Zhitianqi get up and say goodbye. The girl in red was naturally taken away by him. The man from the clan sent the person to the door and turned back and joined the lively banquet on the second floor. With his joining the second floor, it immediately became lively. After a moment, all kinds of ambiguous voices sounded inside. Chu Ling disappeared from the upstairs with expressionless face and disappeared into the night.

Chu Ling followed the man from Tianqi out of the city all the way, and the girl in red dressed in thin clothes was still on the horse's back. No one remembered to give her one more piece of clothing during this cold weather. Before she left the city, she was so cold that she could not speak.

Chu Ling followed the group slowly with the night hiding, looking at the girl's pale and slightly frowned.

The man of Tianqi was originally sitting on the horse's back all the way and didn't know what he was thinking, but suddenly he came to his senses and his eyes fell on the girl and suddenly laughed twice. The laughter seemed particularly loud on the quiet night, making the girl who was already dying from the cold and could not help but shivered, and her eyes looked at the man were full of fear.

The man glanced at the girl, sneered and said with a bit of contempt: "The people of the Clan are shallow and have no knowledge. Do you dare to come and give it to others?"

The man who followed him quickly smiled and said, "What the commander said is, how can such a person be appointed to serve the commander?"

The man snorted, "Okay, give it to you. If you are still angry in the future, throw it into the tent." The tent he mentioned refers to the red tent, where military prostitutes are specially placed in the army, but even in places like Apocalypse, there are no red tents. Only troops stationed on the border and fighting for many years will have it. But now, naturally, there are no one to control it, and everything is casual.

"Yes, commander. Thank you for the reward." The casual people said happily, looking at the girl on the horse's back became more and more lewd. The guard who was sitting on the horse was carrying the girl was already up and down without hesitation. The girl was already tortured and ruthless, but now she was frozen to death and struggled at all. She could only cry silently, and the night of tears quietly slid from her cheeks.

Chu Ling looked at the girl's desperate face and looked slightly dark. A hidden weapon had been locked in her hand but suddenly stopped. She looked forward, but saw a group of men in black at the intersection ahead and blocked her way.

"Who?!"

The man in black didn't say anything, and rushed towards the people.

Chu Ling narrowed his eyes slightly, "People in the army."

There are few ordinary killers or people in the world who are good at fighting immediately. Even if the opponent is riding a horse, the killer will choose to knock the opponent off the horse or pounce directly on the same horse and fight against the opponent head-on instead of riding the horse. Without a very good horsemanship, even the horse cannot control it, let alone killing people?

"You are from the army and said you were sent here!" the man said sternly.

The answer to him was the sharp blade coming towards him. He gritted his teeth and raised his knife to meet him. The other party obviously wanted his life and had no intention of talking to him. Chu Ling stared at the man who was fighting with the man, and gradually a smile of interest appeared on his lips.

The man in black was not weak, and as if he was determined to die, his blade ruthlessly slashed at the person opposite. The man who should be the commander of the Southern Army was forced to retreat step by step several times and was almost injured. Finally, he could not dodge the knife that was swung over again, and slashed on his shoulder with one knife. The man in black roared and slashed hard with his other hand. The man in black succeeded and was about to take another step to deal with him. Two cold winds came from behind him, and the two guards had already slashed over from left and right. There were enemies in front and behind. In desperation, the man turned around and hung himself on the side of the horse to avoid the knife. But at the same time, his horse died under the enemy's knife.

The man fell to the ground and rolled a few times, and the sword wind behind him came again. He gritted his teeth and stood up to block it, but he heard a light sound of the two swords that swung him at him suddenly stopped in the air as if they were blocked by something. The man in black made a quick decision and swung his sword without hesitation, directly sending the two guards who chased him into the Huangquan.
