Volume 1: Youth Tour, Long Journey, Far Away, and Quartet Chapter 63: Encountering Others' Quick Footsteps

The two of them took advantage of the dark clouds in the sky to fly over the eaves of the Governor's Mansion, and soon arrived at the main hall. At this time, the main hall of the Governor's Mansion was brightly lit, and the candlelight in the hall was even brighter, and it was almost over.

The entire Governor's Palace was illuminated.

The governor's palace was still in such a state of affairs late at night. There must be people there discussing important matters or something that had to be done at night.

Ye Dangting led Lin Manliu to a secluded place, which should be the corner of a corridor on the west side of the main hall. There were fewer patrolling guards than in other locations.

When the two of them stood still, the old liar stretched out his hand to the young man next to him and said, "Lend me a ride in the mountains."

After hearing the news, the young man in short shirt took out the Shanye Xing and handed it to the other party. Ye Dangting took the sword in his backhand and slowly embedded half of the sword blade into the tiles at his feet. As the man held the sword harder, the tiles were slightly propped up.

A glimmer of light emerged from it.

Then he motioned to Lin Manliu to get close to the gap between the tiles and listen carefully to the conversation. The subtle sounds in the main hall finally reached their ears, but the conversation was obviously halfway through.

"The governor has benefited all parts of Zezhou City in recent years. The two neighboring states are vying to imitate Hengzhou, which is why we have the current situation..." A slightly feminine male voice came from the gap.

.

"Don't take it seriously or not, it's all because of your support... It's a small honor to be able to serve that gentleman now... From now on, I'm willing to work hard and just hope that I can see the peace with you."

The prosperous age..." What followed was a slightly nervous response.

"From now on, we are all members of the same family. The governor was so open-minded before. From now on, we have to work together. The governor should not be so reserved."

"It's because I was too surprised that I became so ugly... I hope you can forgive me. These days, incidents have happened so frequently that I thought it was going to be a troubled world again... If adults hadn't solved my doubts, I still wouldn't know.

The recent events are all the work of that gentleman."

"It's good to know now. Don't say it's the land of the three states until April at most. As long as the governor wants, we can grant it. The premise is that the governor needs to pay more attention to this matter. After the talks in the future

I also hope that the governor will be cautious and be careful that the walls have ears...".

"That's nature...that's nature...".

There were no other words after that, and then there was the sound of two people discussing in the room getting up. They heard footsteps walking outside the room. Lin Manliu and Ye Dangting also followed the direction of the two people in the room and turned to look at the master.

The location at the entrance of the palace.

After a while, two people appeared at the door of the governor's main palace. One of them was slender, although he was dressed in casual clothes, but he looked very feminine, especially his face, which seemed to have some makeup and powder, showing a sickly look under the moonlight.

of white.

The other person is dressed like those rich gentry, and his figure is also extremely fat, like a meat ball. His hands are attached to his round belly, as if he wants to stand respectfully aside, and his waist is half-bowed.

He looked very funny. From the conversation just now, it was easy to tell that this fat man was the governor of Hengzhou.

The slender man turned his head and glanced at the governor, then glanced sideways at a spot on the roof of the main hall and said, "I've been bothered by these days for a long time, so I won't bother the governor to see me off."

"Then I won't send you off. Recently, more Master Zhu has been taking care of the mansion." The governor of Hengzhou hurriedly bowed his hands and said. He originally wanted to press his waist lower, but he might be hindered by his belly and could not press it down.

Go down.

Seeing this, the person opposite smiled and waved his hand, helped the governor up, then turned and left.

After the man left, the governor of Hengzhou breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeves, then began to breathe heavily, and waved to the servant next to him.

After these things, we returned to the main palace room.

On the eaves of a certain place in the Governor's Palace

"We have to go. Do you remember the location of the restaurant during the day?" Ye Dang asked softly without looking back.

"Well..." Lin Manliu listened to the words of the person in front of him that seemed to be somewhat unkind, and responded after a moment of silence.

"It should be quite safe in the mansion now. After leaving the mansion, we will go eastward of the city, then go around two streets and alleys to find a place to hide for half an hour, and then find a way to meet up at a restaurant. If I am not there, we will hide immediately and wait.

I'm going to find you." I saw the old liar casually talking about his upcoming itinerary, and when he said we would meet, he turned to look at the young man behind him.

"I'll go with you..." the boy in a short shirt said immediately.

"There are some things I need to ask clearly. It's hard to get away without you."

"Well, I listen to you."

Ye Dangting returned the Shanye Xingtou to Lin Manliu, and then the whole person slipped under the eaves and disappeared. Lin Manliu then started to shuttle back and forth on the roof of the Governor's Mansion, following the route he had just sneaked in.

Prepare to exit the Governor's Mansion.

Just as he was about to climb over the wall to the east of the city and leave the Governor's Mansion, shouts came from behind him, shouting that there were assassins and people going to the Governor, and so on, and then a large number of soldiers and guards rushed towards the main palace.

Go, Lin Manliu turned his head and looked for a moment, then climbed over the wall without any hesitation and headed straight to the east city.

Along the way, there were city guards rushing back. Although the lights kept flickering on the streets, they seemed very urgent. No one noticed that a black shadow would flash from time to time on both sides of the road. Just like that, the young man was escaping.

I didn't meet anyone on the road, and soon I reached the east of the city. When I looked back towards the direction of the Governor's Mansion, the surrounding streets that were already lit by fire looked like daylight.

Lin Manliu cursed in his heart what this old liar was going to do, and then he could only follow his instructions and continue walking until he reached an alley. There were some debris around him, and the boy in a short shirt squatted down next to a clay pot.

I planned to hide and wait for half an hour before returning to the restaurant.

In the courtyard of the main palace of the Governor of Hengzhou, in the middle of the courtyard stood a figure wearing black robes but holding a golden scabbard. He was surrounded by soldiers wearing armor and holding swords or carrying torches. The surroundings were reflected by the torches.

It was extremely bright, except for some darkness in the middle of the courtyard.

Surrounded by a group of soldiers, the feminine man surnamed Zhu looked at the figure in the field evilly, and said in a penetrating voice: "I wonder if the hero is suddenly visiting. If we have something to discuss, why bother with swords?"

Facing each other."

The black-robed golden sword in the courtyard didn't say anything. He just raised the long sword in his hand and looked around half a circle, and then pointed the sword at the man named Zhu.

The man surnamed Zhu then raised his hands to his face, clapped his hands and said, "You are so generous - come with me." He clapped his hands back and forth three times to make a clapping sound, and then made a gesture to the soldiers in the rear.

The soldiers wearing armor directly mentioned the black-robed figure with a golden sword who rushed towards the courtyard. The soldier who came into contact with the black-robed figure first was slashed and knocked down by the golden sword. The armor on his body was also damaged instantly, and he was a little out of touch.

The sleeves of the soldiers who were slightly closer to the sword showed signs of being torn. Seeing this scene, the soldiers and guards who came up afterward couldn't help but slow down a bit.

"Come up to me. Those who retreat will die. Those who cut off their sleeves will be rewarded and can follow me north. Those who seize the weapons and equipment will be yours and will be promoted to one level. If you can damage their body, they will still need money to serve as officials in the future.

You can mention it at will," the man surnamed Zhu shouted from behind the soldiers, but his voice was very sharp and harsh, not at all like the rich voice of a normal man.

There must be a brave man under a heavy reward. The soldiers and guards seemed to be slashing their weapons at the man in the middle of the courtyard as if they didn't care about their lives, but they were all blocked by the man in black robes with the golden sword in his hand.

Seeing this scene, the man surnamed Zhu was not angry at all. He knew that these people would definitely not be able to deal with the black robe. He was just hoping that these people could consume more of that person's physical strength.

However, as time passed, the man surnamed Zhu felt something strange. The black robe in the middle of the courtyard did not slow down or slow down at all in terms of the speed or timing of his sword. Even the sword intent felt from him was not slow at all.
