Jianming Chaos

"You don't need to thank me, I didn't come to save you, I just found out that a spy sneaked in, I happened to see someone here, I thought it was a spy, but I didn't expect it to be you!" Gan Ning was very surprised.

"Are we... still friendly forces?" Zhiming asked cautiously.

"Of course! I believe you are not a secret worker, but please tell me, what are you doing here?" Gan Ning asked Zhiming, taking him to a deserted place.

Zhiming breathed a sigh of relief, and said adaptably: "I wanted to ask Governor Zhou about something, but I couldn't find his tent. Can you take me there?"

"You want to see Lord Zhou Yu? Uncle Liu Huang asked you to come? You don't want to come in openly, but you want to sneak in this way?" Gan Ning was quite vigilant.

"No, this matter has nothing to do with Liu Beijun. I came here by myself. Because it was late at night, I was afraid of being misunderstood, and it was inconvenient to enter through the gate." Zhiming found an untenable reason.

"Can you break away from the organization and act privately?" Gan Ning questioned.

"It depends, occasionally." Zhiming said casually.

Fortunately, Gan Ning didn't go any further, and continued to ask, "What do you want to do with the governor?"

"I want to find out the whereabouts of a person." Zhiming wanted to get some information by the way.

"Whose whereabouts?"

"A young woman from the Central Plains, named Cai Yan, or Cai Wenji."

"Cai Yan?!" Gan Ning's eyes lit up, "What's the secret behind her? Why do you all want to find her?"

Knowing that he had asked the right person, Zhiming said, "General Gan, it's not that I want to find her, it's just that a friend is dying and needs her rescue."

"Is she a doctor? Master Zhou Yu sent someone overseas to save her, to help him cure his illness?" Gan Ning just finished speaking, and then covered his mouth again, for fear of saying too much.

"It's okay, I know everything. She's just an ordinary woman, a celebrity around Cao Cao back then. I don't have time to say more about it. Can you tell me where she is?" Zhiming was eager to know her whereabouts.

"As far as I know, she is..." Gan Ning hesitated to speak.

Zhiming understood what he meant and said, "Is the general worried that speaking out will be bad for the army? Tell the general the truth, I must take Cai Yan away, or my friend will die. In the Jianghu, I can't help myself. It's not an official matter, I hope the general understands my difficulties."

Gan Ning was originally a Jiang bandit, he was chivalrous, and he didn't quite follow the army's set of rules.In his eyes, apart from being an ally, Zhiming is also a military friend to a greater extent. The two met each other because of martial arts, and became attached to each other because of martial arts, not to mention that Zhiming also saved his life.

After thinking for a while, Gan Ning said: "I did meet her not long ago, but she is not here, she should be sent to Chaisang, and it is very likely that she is by our lord's side."

"Cai Yan is in the Wu Palace? That's great, maybe I can ask Sun Shangxiang for help!" Zhiming thought excitedly, and cupped his fists to thank him, "General Xie told the truth, I owe the General a favor!"

"There is no need to repay the favor. I hope General Lei will give me another chance. How about we have a third battle?" Gan Ning's palms were hot again.

"Three battles? Today...it's really inconvenient, how about another day?" Zhiming was afraid of being entangled by the other party again.

"Another day? You and I are not in the same camp. We don't know when we will meet next time. It's better to hit the sun than to choose another day, right?" Gan Ning's fighting cells quickly assembled.

Zhiming didn't want to reveal his whereabouts, and he was afraid of affecting Liu Beijun, so he said, "It's really inconvenient today. It's hard to show your true strength because your vision is limited late at night. I guarantee my personality, and I will definitely come to ask for advice in person someday!"

"You know I'm impatient, and I can't wait. Let's do a few tricks in the dark, I know you can sense the enemy's position through your breath." Gan Ning punched him without waiting for the opponent's response.

Zhiming blocked easily, and then used his lower body to stabilize the ground, and Gan Ning was forced to take a few steps back as soon as the punch was delivered.

Unconvinced, Gan Ning used "Tou Jin", his powerful fist penetrated Zhiming's body, smashing the wooden barrel more than ten meters behind him.

Gan Ning thought he had killed Wu You by mistake, but when he looked closely, what penetrated was the afterimage of the other party.

"Here." Zhiming's true self flashed out from the nearby grass without haste.

Gan Ning said in surprise: "When did you leave my sight? It seems that your physical skills have improved again. Can you use the trick from last time? Let me try again."

Just as Zhiming was about to reply, Gan Ning had already danced the Heavenly Dragon Bafeng Knife. His cool moves created a powerful knife aura, tamed the night wind, which was not easy to be manipulated, and turned the air particles into countless streaks of light in the darkness.

Zhiming didn't want to fight, so he blocked it with his shield.He used the mind movement technique, Gan Ning suddenly felt a heavy blow in the back, and fell in front of Zhiming.

Zhiming quickly reached out to help.Gan Ning couldn't let go, he threw his hand away, and just about to attack, he looked behind him and said to himself, "Strange, who was sneaking up on me just now?"

At this time, someone in the distance called him again.Gan Ning replied, and when he turned around, Zhiming had disappeared without a trace.

Gan Ning looked around, but not only couldn't see anyone, he couldn't even feel his breath.Zhiming disappeared perfectly as if he had never appeared before.

"This man's physical skills are even better than martial arts! He has a divine power, and he comes and goes without a trace. How can I defeat him?" Gan Ning felt very frustrated, feeling that the gap between himself and the opponent was getting wider and wider. .

Lu Meng came over and said: "Xingba, what are you doing here? The governor called you over, I have something to explain."

"Have you caught Xizuo?" Gan Ning asked.

"No, this person is like a shadow in the wind, and he can't catch up at all. But fortunately, we have no casualties."

"Where do you think Essay came from?"

"I don't know. According to the governor, it's from Cao Jun's camp."

"Cao Jun? Master Zhou Yu really has a clever plan!" Gan Ning admired him from the bottom of his heart.He could only let go of his worries for the time being and follow Lu Meng to see Zhou Yu.

…………

Zhiming "airborne" to Wugong.As soon as he landed, he had a very strong feeling: "Cai Yan" was in the palace.

"It's late at night, where can I find her?" Zhiming was troubled, "What if she is arranged to live in Yuqing Palace? I can't break into Yuqing Palace in full view and take her away by force." ?”

After much deliberation, he decided to ask Sun Shangxiang for help.Even though the time was tight, he still didn't want to go into the boudoir late at night to wake her up, in case he was treated as a flower picker, he would be embarrassing.

Zhiming temporarily found an empty corner and had a sound sleep.Although Night Breeze was biting, he didn't feel the chill at all, and he only wanted to rescue Gubosi as soon as possible.

I don't know how long it took, in the dimness, he heard a child laughing, opened his eyes and saw a little girl standing beside him, it was Xiao Miao.

Zhiming immediately jumped up and asked, "What time is it? Xiao Miao, why are you here?"

Xiao Miao looked at him with a smile and said, "Good morning, brother Zhiming, why are you sleeping here?"

"Are you with Sister Shangxiang?" Zhiming looked around, but he didn't see Sun Shangxiang.

"Yeah, she wanted to take me out, but she didn't expect to see you sleeping here. She asked me to watch over you here, so I can't let you run away. She went back to get something." Xiao Miao looked at Zhi with innocent eyes. Ming, say.

Zhiming heaved a sigh of relief, fortunately no one else noticed.He asked, "When did you find me?"

"A quarter of an hour ago." Xiao Miao squatted beside Zhiming, resting her chin on her palms, staring at him with watery eyes, and said, "Brother Zhiming, can't you find a place to sleep?"

"This...Of course not. I just came to ask Sister Shangxiang something, and I was afraid of disturbing her rest in the middle of the night, so I slept here first." Zhiming was a little embarrassed.

"So you came here in the middle of the night?"

"...That's right. By the way, did she say to go back and get something?"

"No, anyway, she told me not to wake you up and wait for her to come back."

After a while, Sun Shangxiang came and said, "You finally woke up, great martial artist."

"I... dare not be. Good morning princess!" Zhiming bowed to Sun Shangxiang, "It's a miracle that you can find me! I thought this was the most secret place."

"Is this place called secret? Let me tell you, the most secret place is the roof. No one will find out if you sleep on it. Just be careful not to fall down in the middle of the night. You are a martial artist, and you have never done this?" Sun Shangxiang teased him .

"I did it when I was a teenager, but I quit now." Zhiming also half-jokingly said, "By the way, princess, Xiao Miao said you were in a hurry to go back to get something. Is this a gift for me?"

"I told you earlier, don't call me Princess anymore, call me Shangxiang, and forget?" Sun Shangxiang pouted her lips with dissatisfaction, and said, "You haven't told me, what are you doing here?"

"I just came to ask you about something." Zhiming said solemnly, "This matter is related to the life and death of a friend of mine."

"What's so serious?" Sun Shangxiang also became nervous.

"I want to inquire about Cai Wenji, I don't know the princess... No, Shang Xiang, do you know?" Zhiming looked into the other's eyes and said.

"Cai Wenji? This name is so familiar, it feels like..." Sun Shangxiang's eyes suddenly lit up, and said, "I remembered, Mr. Tai Shixiang told me last time that he was going to some overseas country to save a woman from the Central Plains, could it be Is that her?"

"Taishixiang? Could it be the son of that Taishi Cigong?" Zhiming asked.

"Yes, that's right, Master Zhou Yu arranged for him to save that woman surnamed Cai some time ago." Sun Shangxiang knew quite a lot.

"Why did Master Zhou Yu arrange for him to save people? Did you explain why?" Zhiming wanted to know more.

"I don't know the details, or you can go directly to Mr. Xiang." Sun Shangxiang pointed in one direction and said, "He lives nearby, you go through here..."

After getting the detailed address, Zhiming said excitedly: "Thank you, Shangxiang, you have helped me a lot. I will teach you more martial arts some other day. By the way, I taught you the last time, did you practice it by yourself later?" ?”

"Of course I have, I'm ashamed to say it! Look at my hands!" Sun Shangxiang showed him his calloused hands and said, "My slender hands have turned into rotten cabbages!"

"I have wronged you, but you have to continue to practice. Martial arts cannot be developed overnight. If you want to become a master, you must learn to persevere." Zhiming began to preach again.

"Okay, go get busy, I have to see sister Xiao Qiao, she is not in a good mood these days." Sun Shangxiang issued the "exit order".

"Miss Qiao? Mrs. Zhou Yu's wife?"

"That's right, I went back just now to get something for her. You should know about Lord Zhou Yu, right?" Sun Shangxiang's face darkened instantly.

"I know, he is not in good health. He came back from the front line in a carriage early this morning." Zhiming blurted out.

Sun Shangxiang was taken aback, and asked, "How do you know?"

"I just came from there." Zhiming regretted it as soon as he finished speaking, and changed his words, "I only got the news two days ago. I heard that after the Battle of Chibi, Lord Zhou Yu's body fell immediately. There are signs, but God is merciful to him and specially let him command the battle before he gets sick."

"Sister Qiao knew about this early in the morning, and she also persuaded Lord Zhou Yu, but she knew that he was stubborn and could not prevent him from going to the battlefield. If the Lord is willing to rest at home and recuperate, the situation may be much better." Sun Shangxiang said for Zhou Yu Pity.

"Yeah, what should come will always come, there is a destiny in the dark. Speaking of this, what happened last time... have you verified it?" Zhiming remembered the shadow assassin.

Sun Shangxiang was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "It's confirmed, it is indeed the people below me; however, I have educated them well. They said that they also have difficulties, and it was all ordered by Master Zhou Yu. It seems that they did not kill innocent people indiscriminately." Come on, forget about it."

"It's okay, it's okay," Zhiming waved his hands quickly, and said, "I don't want to pursue anything. You go to work first, I have to find Tai Shixiang, I'm afraid he won't be here when I go late."

"Although I don't know what happened to your friend, I hope everything is fine. And..." Sun Shangxiang stopped talking and said, "Forget it, let's talk about it later."

Zhiming saw that she had something on her mind, so he didn't want to ask more questions, so he said, "I'll hang out with you when I have time, so I'm leaving."

After leaving the two of them, Zhiming headed straight to Taishi Mansion.It is broad daylight now, and his mobility is somewhat inconvenient. He must finish his work as soon as possible and leave.
