On April 18, just after noon, two fast horses were galloping on the country road in the field. The horses' hooves trampled quickly on the grass and mud of the road, leaving two lines of footprints on the ground.

After two days of riding on the road, Ye Dangting and Lin Manliu finally succeeded in taking a detour into Hengzhou, successfully avoiding the boundary of Yuezhou that they passed through on the original route. From then on, they only had to enter central Guizhou first and then Jiannan, leaving south of their destination.

The border is not far away.

Along the way, I didn’t hear much news about the Slaughter Evil Sect or any turmoil in the world. I mostly lamented that in recent years, Hengzhou and its surrounding three states have enjoyed good weather. It was said that it will be decided after autumn this year.

It was a good harvest.

While resting at the post station, I heard the old people chatting and talking about how they all praised the governor of Hengzhou for his good governance over the years. It was thanks to the governor that he survived the droughts and floods in the previous years, so that we can look forward to the good things this year.

"Listen to what those old men said, the governor of Hengzhou can be considered a good official who helps the world and saves the people..." Lin Manliu, who was riding a horse to chase the yellow figure in front, suddenly sighed.

"That's right," Ye Dangting said after being silent for a while.

It didn't take long for the two of them to enter Hengzhou City together. The news they heard recently had made little progress, so they really needed to go see the governor.

After the two placed their horses, they headed to the street where the governor's mansion was located. However, before they even got close to the three streets where the mansion was located, they discovered that something was not going well on the street. The patrolling soldiers were in a different state than before.

There are many more cities in Hengzhou City. In Hengzhou City, whether it was the lively market just now or the city gate we just entered, there were not as many soldiers patrolling the streets at this time.

Ye Dangting was fiddling with small objects at a stall and winked at Lin Manliu beside him. The boy in a short shirt understood that the two looked at the things sold on the street for a while, then turned and left the street.

, and then walked around the county governor's house for a while and found that there were soldiers patrolling and inspecting everywhere.

Finally, the two of them found a two-story restaurant. After ordering their food, they went up to the second floor and sat down by the window, waiting for the food to be served. The waiter of the restaurant went upstairs first and packed the utensils for the two of them.

, seeing that he was right next to the window, he quickly went to open the window, and the scenery in Hengzhou City was instantly opened, giving a panoramic view.

"Two guests, please wait a moment. The food will be here soon. Let's drink some tea and wait patiently! If you need anything, just call me." The waiter said with a smile, without stopping, holding a pot and a cup in his hands, and quickly got there.

So the young man in the short shirt and the man in yellow filled up the tea twice as much. Maybe the restaurant owner was a bit rough and didn't have all the convoluted tea ceremony thoughts.

Ye Dangting and Lin Manliu naturally didn't pay much attention to these things. They just raised the bowls of tea they had just poured and drank it into their throats. Then the two of them turned to look at the scene outside the window and walked on the street.

I couldn't notice it carefully, but now I climbed up and saw that there were indeed soldiers patrolling and inspecting the three streets surrounding the governor's mansion.

The streets near the Governor's Mansion were patrolled more frequently. Under this influence, no people around dared to take a step closer. There was a coldness in the streets that seemed to drive everyone away from the Governor's Mansion.

"The governor's office is a little weird today...but the situation is urgent and we have to figure out some things." Ye Dang said in a deep voice, still playing with this tea bowl in his hand.

"How about you return to Hangzhou first, and I from Nanjiang will inform Master about the relevant matters, and then we will make a decision." Lin Manliu thought about the proposal for a moment.

"... Even if the hair is not fully grown, don't you know how much further we have to go? Your master has already started the game. All we have to do is wait for Mr. Mo to observe the situation. We also have our own things to do.

"Things," the old liar in yellow shirt stared back at the young man at the table and said.

The young man in a short shirt remained silent, just rolled his eyes and continued to look out the window. It didn't take long for the food to be served on the table. After looking at each other, the two picked up the chopsticks together, as if ignoring the existence on the other side of the table, and began to be embarrassed.

Jin put some vegetables into his bowl, and then wolfed it down without any taste at all. Thinking about it carefully, this seemed to be a decent meal for the two of them after a long journey of more than ten days.

After the two came out of the restaurant, they went directly back to the inn where the horses were housed to rest. They did not step out of the door until evening. Only when night fell did the closed door in the inn quietly opened.

In Hengzhou City at night, only wealthy families would hang up lanterns in front of their houses, and the governor's mansion was no exception. The front of the house was brightly lit, and if any soldiers on night watch passed by the house, no matter what shape they were.

Photo clearly.

Compared with the daytime, there were one or two less patrolling soldiers, and the patrol intervals were also a little longer. Two figures were shuttled through these streets. When they were about to meet these soldiers, the two figures quietly disappeared into the road.

In the alleys on both sides, it was like a sudden breeze blowing in the dark night and disappearing without any trace of passing by.

Not long after, the two figures were obscured by dark clouds as the moonlight in the sky jumped into the governor's courtyard wall. When the moonlight illuminated the earth again, nothing seemed to appear around them.

Pass.

In the Hengzhou Governor's Mansion, all the courtyard corridors are brightly lit, as if it were daytime and there is no darkness at all. Some of the mansion's official servants and nursing staff will walk around the corridors to patrol and inspect from time to time. Under such an environment, before

The two figures who flashed into the Governor's Mansion did not stop their actions.

The person who led the way climbed up to the roof of a courtyard first, and then the people who walked with him also stepped on the tiles, but maybe because they were not very skilled, they made a slight stepping sound.

"I'm thinking you're quite thin... How can you be so miserable climbing up on the roof? If the nursing home finds out whether we can run out is another question." A subtle but very sarcastic voice

The words came to mind between the two figures.

"Old liar! Even if I was really naughty and mischievous before, I never went to the house to lift the tiles..." Then another small voice responded.

The two figures walking through the night were naturally Ye Dangting and Lin Manliu who had just left the inn. There was no change in their attire, except that Ye Dangting changed from the yellow shirt he usually wore to a black robe.

, even the Huang Lu that I carried with me was wrapped in black cloth.

Lin Manliu did not change at all. The blouse he originally wore was black, and he had lowered the sleeves that had been rolled up all year round. Some of the wrinkles with a sense of age were particularly obvious on this worn blouse.

"That's all, let me check the situation. I'm wondering if I should show up to reminisce with the governor." After saying this, the two figures stopped communicating and walked together through the roof corridor of the governor's mansion.

The dark clouds in the sky seemed to be helping these two figures traveling through the night. The bright moon, which had originally emitted bursts of light through the clouds, was covered by dark clouds after a while, preventing the moonlight from shining for a long time.
