Lin Xiaoxiao expected it well, the letter was not hot in Wuqing's hands, and Wuqing immediately re-wrote a secret letter, and sent it to the first person in the six doors, the hands of Zhuge Shenhou.

Zhuge Shenhou's real name is Zhuge Zhengwo. In the past, he and the other three were also called the Four Famous Detectives. He is also the master of the current Four Great Famous Detectives.

Because this time, firstly, the family of the servant of the household department, Mr. Lin, was exterminated, and then there were the Church of the Virgin Mary, and then Shi Guanyin and others were involved. He was already full of doubts, and he felt that there was a bigger conspiracy behind it.But before he got the ruthless secret letter, he never expected that it would involve treason!

Quietly, what is written on it, even the dragon chair and the dragon robe have been made out of the deadly things, Nan Wang is so impatient? !

Under Zhuge Shenhou's confusion, he heard a click, the teacup in his hand shattered into several pieces, and the warm tea was poured into his hand immediately.

The servant saw it and hurried forward, Zhuge Shenhou waved his hand to indicate that he was fine.He casually wiped the water on his hands twice, took a deep breath and said.

"Prepare the car, I want to enter the palace!"

It’s autumn, the weather is getting cooler, and some trees on the mountain have begun to shed yellow leaves, like flying butterflies, and finally fall into the embrace of the stream, watching quietly, this desolate mountain is also more poetic, but come here People are not interested in feeling these things.

A group of people with serious faces came here. It can be seen that dozens of people are officers and soldiers with swords, and several people have tokens of six doors hanging on their waists.

The leader is an old man in a white robe, his face is full of weathered wrinkles, he has gray hair and a silver beard.But you can vaguely see his youthful handsomeness.

They entered the mountain forest all the way, and reached a high slope with green tree crowns everywhere, and then they jumped down without hesitation, and groped all the way, only to find a very hidden rock wall, no, it should be said that it was a trapped rock. A hole blocked by a huge stone.

The opening of the hole is too small, but the stone is as tall as a person. It is rigidly inlaid, and the seams are tight, and the surroundings are covered with vine leaves, so that even if people who don't know the mystery stand on this wall, they will only see it. This is regarded as a rock wall, how would anyone know that it is a cave, and there are hidden things that can kill many people's heads.

The officers and soldiers cleared away the vines and grass leaves on top, and surprise flashed in their eyes.I saw countless friction scratches in the gap between the hole covered by vines and the stone.If you look carefully, the hole is only half the height of a person, and the stone forcefully stretches the periphery of the hole.At this moment, the boulder seemed to be integrated with the entrance of the cave!

Someone carefully touched the gap between the rock and the entrance of the cave, and even with all their strength, the boulder could not be shaken.The huge boulder was already very heavy, but now it was stuck in the hole, making it even more difficult to handle. What should I do?

Zhuge Shenhou saw it and suddenly realized.

No wonder they have to ask if their manpower is strong enough.

Fortunately, he still has some strength.

He made everyone retreat, and with enough internal strength, he struck out with a heavy palm, and the huge boulder was shattered immediately, and countless stones flew out.Everyone was so scared that they quickly took a few steps back.

Zhuge Shenhou withdrew his hand and raised his hand to grab a flying stone.It was only after he took a closer look that he was sure that he was right.There are slender finger prints clearly printed on this stone, judging from the size, it seems to be the girl's hand.

Thinking of the friends that Zhui Ming and Ru Qing had mentioned in their letter recently, Zhuge Shenhou stroked his beard and smiled.It's really talented people from generation to generation.

Soon, the smoke and dust faded, and the appearance of the cave was finally exposed to everyone.Looking at the bright yellow dragon chair and the dragon robes on it, they couldn't help holding their breath for a while.

Zhuge Shenhou personally sealed the dragon robe in the treasure box, and then asked someone to respectfully lift the dragon chair into the carriage he brought.But that's not all. There are physical evidences, but human witnesses are needed.

The night is dark and windy.

The three of Lin Xiaoxiao sat on the roof of the inn, looking in the direction of Nanwang Mansion from a distance.

They are waiting for a good show.

Soon, they will be waiting.

A group of officers and soldiers wearing armor and holding big knives and long bows surrounded the place, and the light of the torches they brought illuminated the whole street.

Zhuge Shenhou was at the forefront, and the subordinates beside him kicked open the gate of the Nanwang Mansion unceremoniously.

The concierge wanted to run away, but was pinned to the neck with a big knife.In shackles.

Not long after, there was a figure trying to escape from the Nanwang Mansion, but just as his head appeared, the arrow flew towards his head unceremoniously.That guy seemed to be a practitioner, with some martial arts skills, but he knocked down the arrow in time.But in the next moment, he was defeated by the people with six doors, and was immediately locked in the prison car.Looking back, there are dozens of prison cars made of such strong wooden cages.

All of a sudden, the flames and screams and cries came from the Nanwang Mansion, and probably half of the city was woken up, but except for the noisy Nanwang Mansion, everything was still quiet.In the darkness, countless pairs of eyes looked in the direction of Nanwangfu.

"I am the King of Nan! I am the King of Nan! If you dare to arrest me, I will execute you all!"

There was an angry roar, and then a lump of miserable green humanoid was dragged out by two people with six doors.

Zhuge Shenhou originally thought that he had never seen such a big storm in his life, but tonight, he had to say that he had never seen this thing.

The thing that was dragged out had a strong figure, not to mention the bulging fat on the stomach, but the most important thing was that it was covered in green, and it was not a uniform green, but darker, shallower, very mottled.But this guy was still wearing a snow-white undershirt, which made his whole body green and weird.

Looking to the left, I only felt that this thing was ugly, and when I looked at it again, I only felt that this thing was disgusting.

It's like that green and smelly ditch, bubbling with disgusting bubbles.

Zhuge Shenhou hesitated.

"This is……"

Nan Wang, who had been humiliated because of his green body in the past two days, suddenly exploded in anger because of Zhuge Shenhou's words.

"Bastard! I'm Nan Wang! I'm going to kill you all!"

"be honest!"

The subordinate who dragged Nanwang out scolded, and then looked at Zhuge Shenhou in embarrassment.

"My lord, those servants and himself all say that he is King Nan, this...we have never seen it before." After all, I have never heard that King Nan looks like this.But for the sake of caution, they still brought people out for Zhuge Shenhou to have a look.

Zhuge Shenhou had seen Nan Wang before, and after a careful look, he merged the miserable green middle-aged man in front of him with the easy-going and refined Nan Wang in his impression.

"It really is King Nan."

He waved his hand, and his subordinates quickly took Nan Wang down.

After a while, another person came out escorted by two people from six doors.When Zhuge Shenhou saw the man, he was startled.

The one who was escorted out was a young man wearing brocade clothes who was cursing furiously, but this is not the point, the point is that the face of this young man is almost exactly the same as today's face.

Seeing this face at first glance, how could Zhuge Shenhou not be surprised.

The subordinates came to report.

It turned out that the person who was caught was the prince of Nan Wang, and he was leading a few confidants before, and even ignored Nan Wang, the old man, and wanted to escape.

This is the frail and sickly Prince Nan who has never appeared in front of others? !

At that moment, Zhuge Shenhou's expression was quite ugly. After all, with such a face, there are too many things he can do.

"take away."

It took two full hours before everything was over.Naturally, it took so much time not only to arrest, they also turned Nan Wang's mansion upside down, and they must find out all the clues and Nan Wang's accomplices.

At this moment, the sky was slightly bright, Zhuge Shenhou led his people away, and looked to the west from a distance.

Lin Xiaoxiao sat on the eaves.

"He must be watching us."

Chu Liuxiang was a little happy, and drank the wine in his hand.

"Unexpectedly, I could see the old Zhuge in my lifetime. I grew up listening to his rumors when I was young."

Lin Xiaoxiao didn't expect Chu Liuxiang to have such an experience, so she looked at him inexplicably.

"Growing up listening to the stories of a generation of famous arresters, did you grow up like this?"

Ye Gucheng chuckled suddenly.

"After all, his personality is not suitable for being a policeman."

Chu Liuxiang was helpless.

"Besides, not everyone can enter the six doors. It's not that I haven't thought about it, but I gave up as soon as I thought about it."

"You're not bad now." Lin Xiaoxiao patted Chu Liuxiang's shoulder and encouraged her earnestly.

"If you are not a famous arrester, you will be a man who cannot be caught by a famous arrester!"

Chu Liuxiang: This sentence... why does it seem a bit wrong?

He looked sideways at the sly smile in Lin Xiaoxiao's almond eyes, and knew that his lively friend was teasing him again.

He smiled helplessly.

"Then I will take your word for it."

"You're welcome."

Lin Xiaoxiao laughed.After speaking, looking at the slowly rising sun in the sky, I couldn't help but let out a hache.

Ye Gucheng turned his head sideways.

"Sleepy? Go and rest first."

Lin Xiaoxiao was indeed sleepy, and fell asleep shortly after returning to the room. When she woke up, the sun was already high.

She stretched.

【When is it? 】

System: [It's time to have breakfast and lunch together. 】

After sleeping for so long, Lin Xiaoxiao washed up and went downstairs, and saw a lot of people downstairs in the inn, all the tables were full, and they were eating.

Her eyes glanced over the waists of those people.The man with six doors?

She immediately realized something, Zhuge Shenhou probably came, after all, the matter of treason was too big, he naturally wanted to meet the person who reported it.

Seeing that the door of the box on the second floor was closed, she thought for a while, and immediately went back upstairs.

Then he hurried to the backyard of the inn, and with a strong arm, he grabbed Chu Liuxiang's window sill. Although the army ants can't do light work, Lin Xiaoxiao's strong body makes it easy for Lin Xiaoxiao to fly over the eaves and walls.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Xiaoxiao knocked on Chu Liuxiang's closed window like a thief.Mouth breath sound.

"Are you there?"

Seeing that no one answered, she quickly knocked again.

"Are you there? Just make a sound."

Chu Liuxiang came out of the kitchen.

"……What are you doing?"

Lin Xiaoxiao looked back and found that the Chu Liuxiang she was looking for was in the backyard. She lowered her head and faced Chu Liuxiang who was eating a bun.

"I'm checking to see if you've been sent to prison by the Lord Zhuge you worship, but it seems that you're still a long way from being sent to prison."

While speaking, she jumped from the top.

"Anyway, I've helped the six sects quite a bit. At least judging from these favors, the Lord Zhuge hasn't reached the point where he has to send me to prison."

Chu Liuxiang smiled.

"However, their identities are different, so as soon as I saw the person from Six Doors entering the inn, I greeted Ye Gucheng and hid behind here."

Maybe it's not called hiding, after all, Zhuge Shenhou is well aware of his existence, so every person from the six doors tries to enter the backyard, this is a tacit understanding.

Lin Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows.

"Then Ye Gucheng is chatting with Lord Zhuge now? How long have they been chatting?"

Chu Liuxiang frowned upon hearing this.

"It seems like it's been a while."

What are you talking about for so long?

Lin Xiaoxiao was muttering in her heart, but her stomach started to growl.

She looked sideways at the bun in Chu Liuxiang's hand.

"You eat this for lunch?"

"People from the six doors squeezed in together. They are having lunch outside now. The back kitchen is busy. I watched as I couldn't take care of me for a while, so I took two steamed buns as padding."

It's not that the people in the inn deliberately treat them differently, but after all, the six doors belong to the imperial court, and the people in the six doors are regarded as officials and lords in the eyes of ordinary people. Since ancient times, people have not fought with officials.Especially last night, these people ruthlessly captured the Nanwang Mansion.The innkeeper who was frightened last night had no choice but to serve him tremblingly.

Chu Liuxiang didn't think anything of it, anyway, it's good to eat something.He ate the last bite of the bun.

"It happens that I'm not full yet, so I'll go get some more."

So when Ye Gucheng came, he saw a handsome man in blue and a beautiful girl in white for a month sitting carelessly on a tree stump made by the store, eating buns.

Seeing Ye Gucheng coming, Lin Xiaoxiao immediately stuffed the remaining buns into her mouth, then stood up and said vaguely.

"Why did we talk for so long, what did Zhuge Shenhou say to you?"

After she finished asking, she saw Ye Gucheng hesitate.

Lin Xiaoxiao immediately became vigilant.

"Did he make things difficult for you?"

"No, he just sent me a message for the emperor."

Ye Gucheng spoke with a serious expression, and recounted what Zhuge Shenhou said just now.

Today's message is very simple. After discussing with Zhuge Shenhou, he hopes that Ye Gucheng will lead people to the desert to destroy Shi Guanyin's lair.

The main reason for this is that it is not easy to kill Shi Guanyin. First, she is a master of half-step masters. Second, she lives in a dangerous desert.

It is so difficult to kill a half-step master, one way is to find someone who is also a half-step master, and one half-step master is not enough, after all, the desert is Shi Guanyin's home field, a half-step master went alone, It's just to give away people's heads.

The second is the human sea tactic, grinding the stone Guanyin to death a little bit.But the problem is still the same, Shi Guanyin lived in the desert of the Western Regions, and [-]% of the troops in the Central Plains used to be buried elsewhere. What's more, if they openly sent troops to the desert, what do the small countries in the Western Regions think?Will there be panic, will there be unity?

In short, the latter is absolutely unacceptable in every respect.

So today, I have to count down the half-step masters who can be used. The three enshrined in the palace can't be moved easily, and Zhuge Shenhou can't do it. This top spot of the six doors sits in town.

The generals guarding the Northland are also not good, they are all guarding the Northland, so naturally they cannot be transferred easily.

What's more, these few are all elderly people who are over half a century old, and the Son of Heaven also knows how terrible the desert is. No matter how powerful a half-step master is, he is still a mortal, and if he goes to the desert, it will not be the same as death if he is not careful.Is it so easy to collect and enshrine a half-step master?To die is a huge loss.

This doesn't work, and that doesn't work. In the end, when the emperor made a decision, isn't that sword fairy a half-step master?It is said that his lover is also suspected to be a half-step master, and that bandit commander Chu Liuxiang is also a first-class martial arts master. It is time for them to be loyal to the country!

Zhuge Shenhou: Let me remind you, except for Chu Liuxiang, the other two are not from the Central Plains.

Tianzi said generously that after all, this task is more difficult and dangerous, and he is naturally not that iron rooster who does not pull out a penny.As long as these three people complete the task, Feixian Island will reduce the tax by 20% on the maritime trade with the Central Plains for the next [-] years.The Central Plains' trade with Feixian Island will also be reduced by [-]%.

The maritime trade in the Central Plains implements a points system.Even when merchants bring their goods to the sea for trade, there are special agencies along the coast to take a commission, and cargo ships carrying goods from other countries also have to take a commission.Generally, it is [-]%, of course which country the Central Plains wants to target.The commission will naturally be higher.

The higher the commission, the less profit the businessman gets, so he is naturally unwilling to take risks to trade there.On the contrary, if the commission is reduced, the businessman will make more profits.At the same time, Feixian Island can also get better development.

Don't look at it as just a [-]% concession, but the benefits are enough to make people jealous.

As for rewarding Chu Liuxiang, it was simple, just a box of priceless jewels, plus a promise, the emperor promised that if Chu Liuxiang was caught for theft in the future, he would let him go.

Lin Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows.

"It seems that the emperor is very well informed."

The fact that Ye Gucheng has become a half-step master has not been spread in Jianghu, the emperor already knew about it, and Ming Wuqing concealed the existence of Chu Liuxiang in the report, but the emperor obviously knew about Chu Liuxiang, a bandit commander.

But judging from the benefits promised by the emperor, he seems to be not bad?At least he didn't overwhelm others.

Chu Liuxiang felt that his reward was quite interesting, maybe the emperor who could come up with this reward was also an interesting person?

"20 years is actually a bit short, but unfortunately the emperor is not something we can bargain for."

Lin Xiaoxiao spoke a little greedily, and then looked at the other two.

"Then when are we leaving? Without further ado, just tonight?"

Ye Gucheng pursed his lips: "Actually, I haven't agreed yet. After all, this is not my business alone. I need to discuss it with you."

Lin Xiaoxiao smiled.

"Is this still negotiable? I will definitely agree."

Chu Liuxiang also smiled.

"I was planning to go to the desert. I never thought there would be such a benefit. I definitely can't miss it."

Ye Gucheng was silent for a while, and said in a low voice.

"But those benefits are not what you need. You were planning to set foot on the desert for the sake of chivalry, but now you agree to it, but you have become people who use the court's money to do things."

This is a nice word to say, but in the mouths of some harsh-speaking Jianghu people, this is a purebred court lackey.

After all, how could the unruly Jianghu people help the court because of the favor of the court?

Among them, the one who really made the most profit was only him, the Lord of Baiyun City.

"What you, it's us!"

Lin Xiaoxiao stared unhappily.

"What are you thinking about? Do you think I'm the kind of person who likes fame? It's no good. We are indeed going to the desert, but it's not for some chivalry worth promoting. Our goal is to get rid of the scourge of Shi Guanyin. It’s even better if it’s good, now it’s like a pie in the sky, I’ll definitely pick it up and run away when I see it!”

By the way, thank you for the gift of nature.

Chu Liuxiang said with a smile.

"I don't even care about false fame. After all, the thief commander is still stealing."

Ye Gucheng's eyes moved slightly.

"I understand."

Seeing Ye Gucheng reappear, Lord Zhuge smiled.

"It seems that little friend has figured it out."

Ye Gucheng nodded.

"we agree."

Zhuge Shenhou nodded, and pushed the box on the table towards him. Inside was the imperial decree of the emperor, and what was written on it was about taxation.

The emperor is not afraid that Ye Gucheng and others will take things and not do things. After all, there is no doubt about employing people, and doubting people will not be used.

The wind and sand blowing on his face felt very uncomfortable, and this wasn't a desert yet, it was just a city on the edge of the desert.

The temperature difference between day and night in the great desert is very large, even if it is only on the edge, it has already begun to show its power.

During the day, it freezes into a dog, and at night, it freezes into hard shit.

"Boss, get us some hot water. It's so cold at night, we want to take a hot bath."

During the day, she was still so sunburned that she wanted to peel off her skin, but at night, she was so cold that she looked like this. Chu Liuxiang couldn't help but couldn't bear it, and said to the proprietress.

The proprietress is dark and thin, which is probably the case for people who live here all year round.

"It's your first time here. Wait, I'll call my boy to deliver water right away."

Lin Xiaoxiao entered the room and checked the room curiously, because it was on the edge of the desert, where there was a lot of sand and dust, and the air was much dry.

Of course, the most striking thing is the thick quilt on the bed.

[Is this too thick? 】

Lin Xiaoxiao held it in her hands curiously, then opened her eyes wide in surprise.

[I'm afraid you will weigh twenty catties in this life, right? 】

This is not a quilt, it is simply a big stone slab!

Covering my body at night, is it really sleeping instead of a dim zone with difficulty breathing? !

At this time, hot water was brought up, and Lin Xiaoxiao put the heavy 'warm' back on the bed, and was about to take off her clothes and wash the fragrance, when she suddenly heard movement outside, and then a healthy figure came in from the window .

Oil lamps were lit in the house, but it was very windy at night, and when the windows were opened, the wind swept in and extinguished the candles.

In the darkness, only one voice apologized.

"Sorry, brother, let me..."

As a result, before he finished speaking, he heard a soft drink.

"Where did the color embryo come from?! Eat me a quilt!"

quilt?How to eat the quilt?

The man was taken aback for a moment, and then he felt something covering his head.Immediately afterwards, a heavy fist hit him.

"A street in the south of the city and north of the city, you don't even ask who is the father when you come out!"

"Ah! I'm not..."

"Can you peek at me taking a shower? If you don't want eyeballs, just give them to those in need?!"

"Ah! Let go, it's broken, it's going to be broken!"

"It's true that there is darkness everywhere in the world. It's all in the desert, and your grandson will come out at night, why don't you freeze to death!"

"Ah, it hurts, it hurts, my aunt spare my life, I really didn't mean it!"

"You didn't do it on purpose, you did it on purpose! You like to climb the windows of girls' houses, don't you? You like to take an unusual path, don't you? Life is so short, and you still have to take shortcuts, so let me help you!"

"Ahhh!"

Screams resounded through the sky.

With a snap, the door opened.

"Are you okay?"

Lin Xiaoxiao recognized Ye Gucheng's voice, and hurriedly said.

"fine."

As he said that, he quickly lit the oil lamp again.

Lin Xiaoxiao stood there with a bulge covered with a quilt beside her.

Ye Gucheng saw that the tub in the house was still steaming, and when he thought about what Lin Xiaoxiao was doing just now, his complexion turned black, and the long sword in his hand was unsheathed.

"It's really okay. Before I took it off, this guy broke in. It's you, put your shoes on quickly."

Lin Xiaoxiao looked at Ye Gucheng with a smile at the corner of her mouth. He was afraid that he was taking a bath just now, and his clothes were put on in a hurry, and his clothes were disheveled. He even stepped on the ground directly with a pair of feet, without shoes at all.

There is a difference between men and women in this era, Ye Gucheng suddenly looked a little unnatural, and subconsciously wanted to put on his shoes, Lin Xiaoxiao hurriedly stopped him.

"Don't run around, be careful of catching a cold, I'll get it for you."

The weather is so cold, she is now a marching ant, resistant to cold and heat, but Ye Gucheng is different. Although she has internal strength to protect her body, she has shortcomings.

At the door, Lin Xiaoxiao met Chu Liuxiang who hurried over again.Got another question of concern.

"It's all right. What can I do? It's the thief who should do something."

Lin Xiaoxiao waved her hand gracefully, and helped Ye Gucheng take the shoes over.

Lin Xiaoxiao also handed over the hurried cloth by the way.

"Remember to wipe your feet."

Her attitude was so natural, as if it was a normal thing for a girl to hand shoes to a big barefoot man.

Ye Gucheng hummed in a low voice, took the cloth, noticed the sight from the side, and swept it coldly.

Chu Liuxiang quickly lowered her head and looked at the quilt on the side.

"Is he still alive?"

There was a dying sound from under the quilt.

"And... one more breath..."

Unexpectedly, Chu Liuxiang was taken aback when she heard this, and then suddenly lifted the quilt.

"Old drunkard?!"

Everyone in Jianghu knows that Chu Liuxiang has two good friends, Ji Bingyan and Hu Tiehua.As the saying goes, "geese and butterflies have two wings, and the fragrance of flowers fills the world." ’ It was the three of them.

And because Hu Tiehua disliked that the tulip fragrance on Chu Liuxiang's body was not masculine enough, he called him an old bug, and Chu Liuxiang laughed at him as an old drunkard not to be outdone.

But Chu Liuxiang never expected that he would reunite with his old friend in this situation.

Hu Tiehua, with a bruised nose and swollen face, opened his eyes and was shocked.

"The old bug is you?"

As he spoke, he looked at the pretty girl beside him, and suddenly said sadly and indignantly.

"Is this your friend? This friend of yours is serious enough to almost turn an old alcoholic into a dead alcoholic!"

Lin Xiaoxiao didn't expect such a coincidence, she hurriedly said.

"Who told you to come in when I was about to take a shower."

"It's really my fault. I was chased by people these few days, and I hid here yesterday. At that time, the person who lived here was still a little brother. I didn't expect to become a big girl today."

Hu Tiehua knew she was wrong, but when she spoke, the wound on the corner of her mouth was involved, and she hissed in pain, wanting to cry but without tears.

"But you hit too hard, too."

"Is it heavy? I'm just a straight punch. Then a left hook, a right hook, an elbow, a knee kick, a back throw..."

Lin Xiaoxiao recalled her actions in the dark just now, and as she spoke, she slowly lost her voice under the sight of everyone.

"Cough, it seems that there is... so a little bit too much."

She said in embarrassment.

"Maybe it's because the desert is too hot during the day, I'm a little angry, I'm sorry."

Ye Gucheng turned his head sideways.

"It was him who flipped the window randomly, why do you have to apologize."

Then, he looked at Hu Tiehua again, his eyes turned cold.

"Forget it today, I remember that we haven't learned swordsmanship for a long time."

Ye Gucheng's words were familiar, obviously he also knew Hu Tiehua.

Hu Tiehua immediately made a bitter face.

"It's my fault, I just apologize, I'm afraid it's just a matter of discussing this..."

Chu Liuxiang laughed while reaching out to pull Hu Tiehua.

"You deserve it for being beaten over the window of the girl's house. Let's learn from each other... Hey, what's wrong with your hand..."

Halfway through his speech, he found that Hu Tiehua's right hand was hanging straight down, dangling by his side.

Hu Tiehua looked at Lin Xiaoxiao silently.

Lin Xiaoxiao: "Hey, I'll connect it for you right now."
