It was already three o'clock, and the capital Luoyang was already in darkness and tranquility. Only the soldiers patrolling the night were still walking along the established route, illuminating that small section of the road.

But they didn't notice it at all. In an alley not far from themselves, three night pedestrians in black were walking quietly with the help of some buildings.

It is obvious that these three people know the streets and alleys of the capital well. Every time they hide, a turn is extremely suitable. They can always avoid the eyes of the night patrol officers and soldiers and head towards their destination. Soon, they appeared in front of Li Ling's residence. Looking at the courtyard wall that was more than one person high, there was a flash of light in their eyes, and then they jumped over and flipped over without any hindrance.

When they landed, there was no other movement except for a slight thud. After the three of them had already understood each other's eyes, they pulled out a sharp steel knife from their backs and quietly touched the inner courtyard.

At this time, Li Ling had not yet gone to bed, but sat in the study, looking through some files at hand, and muttered: "The Imperial City Department is indeed extremely efficient in doing things. It only took one day to collect all the things I needed. It seems that if you have any needs in the future, you can really ask them for help."

He subconsciously muttered, but Li Ling's mind quickly turned, thinking about what he should say after seeing Zhang Hefeng tomorrow to completely impress him and fulfill his promise to the emperor. This not only affects Zhang Rushi's life, death, honor and disgrace, but also has a link to his future.

Suddenly, the door was knocked gently, interrupting Li Ling's thoughts. He said a sound and came in. The door was opened, but Li Moyun, who had brought a bowl of hot porridge, walked in: "Young master, it's getting late, so let's take a rest as soon as possible."

"You haven't slept either? You just want to prepare some things at hand, so you forgot the time." Li Ling smiled at him, nodded and took the bowl of hot porridge, and ate it with a plate of pickles, "Have you eaten it?"

"I'm not hungry." Li Moyun shook his head, but waited on the side for Li Ling to finish eating and leave.

Li Ling smiled again when he saw this: "I'm sorry for you. By the way, I have always forgotten to ask you, do you want to have a serious background, such as if I arranged you into a certain yamen or even the army to let you gain a future?"

In his opinion, Li Moyun is extremely powerful and has good martial arts skills. It is too incompetent to be a trusted chief by his side. Unexpectedly, Li Moyun shook his head: "Young Master has always been very nice to me, and I also think that life is very comfortable and you don't have to worry about food and clothing. It's very good. As long as the young master doesn't dislike me, I will always be by my side and drive for you..."

Li Ling was a little surprised at first, but then he felt relieved. Not everyone had the idea of ​​making a name for themselves. Li Moyun's choice was actually good: "As long as you want, I naturally hope to keep you by my side."

As soon as he said this, Li Moyun's brow suddenly frowned, which made Li Ling curiously: "What, is there any problem with my words?"

"No, it's because my stomach is a little bloated and painful. Go out first." Li Moyun clasped his fists at him, then hurriedly turned around and went out, and at the same time helped him close the door. Li Ling did not doubt that he was there, but when he saw this, he just smiled and started drinking porridge.

Naturally, he would not notice that Li Moyun's face turned and went out had become extremely solemn, and his steps were quickly moving forward. When he passed through the Moon Gate in front, he had picked up a whistle stick leaning against the corner in his hand, and then spread his body again and rushed forward.

In just a moment, he had met three uninvited guests face to face. Without saying too much, Li Moyun's whistle stick in his hand had already whistled straight into the person in front of him.

His appearance was indeed a bit unexpected to the other party, and he made a choice without saying a word, and even caught them off guard. The man hurriedly raised a knife in his hand, and the other two rushed forward from left to right, and the two steel knives also whistled across Li Moyun's waist and abdomen.

Unexpectedly, Li Moyun's seemingly fierce stick was a false move. Just as the three of them had tried all the tricks, the stick was suddenly recycled and sank under his fiddling. The others also retreated fiercely, avoiding the two seemingly fierce swords. As for the whistle stick in his hand, it hit one of the forearms of the forearms, and made a crisp sound, making him make a muffled groan, and the knife also clanged to the ground.

At this moment, the three assassins finally knew that they had met a master and did not dare to advance again. They hurriedly retreated at the same time. Although they had only met for one meeting, they had already figured out that Li Moyun's martial arts was definitely above them, and they had to combine the power of the three to kill him.

And just so happened that the three of them had been walking in the world for many years, and they had always had a method of combining attacks when they fought with others, which was enough to deal with this person. But before they could retreat into formation, Li Moyun shouted softly and pounced on him again. The whistle stick swayed a row of phantoms in the air, and greeted the guy who had lost his knife, which made him hurriedly dodge to the other side, and widen the distance from the other two.

At this point, the assassin finally didn't care that the shouting would attract more enemies, and immediately shouted: "Don't fall into a trap, he is a false move..." When he said this, the two of them rushed to that side, obviously they had to get along with the Darling to deal with the next battle.

And this sentence also made the dick's heart move, and his body, which was already dodging quickly, paused. But at this slow moment, the stick had arrived, and another bang, thrusting hard between his waist and ribs, making him snorting and his body slammed out of the ground, and he was in a mess.

If Li Ling had seen him right now, he would have found that Li Moyun's martial arts was much better than when he was in Jiangbei. Such a free-to-release stick technique was much better than the fight that only knew how to open and close.

"Kill--!" Seeing this, the other two were even more angry and shouted loudly, not caring about cooperating with their companions anymore. Taking advantage of the moment when Li Moyun took out the stick, he rushed to him.

At this moment, because he had all his strength to attack one person, a huge flaw was revealed on Li Moyun's left side. As the cold light flashed, two quick knives had stabbed in front of him.

...

In addition to Li Ling and Li Moyun, there was actually another person in this house who had not fallen asleep late at night, and that was Yang Qingxiao.

Just like before, she was sleeping with Yue'er at the same time, but her face turned a little red, but she couldn't calm down because of the conversation with Yue'er before going to bed.

"Sister Yang, do you like my brother?" Yue'er, who blinked her eyes, suddenly asked her this question, which made Yang Qingxiao stunned for a while, and then said, "What are you talking about?"

"It's not nonsense, I can tell that every time you meet your brother, there is light in your eyes and you smile very well. Also, every time you meet my brother, you will dress up specifically..."

"Don't talk nonsense, I haven't..." Yang Qingxiao was really panicked and subconsciously denied.

Yue'er giggled, but looked at her very seriously: "I can see that Sister Yang, you really like your brother, otherwise you wouldn't have lived here all the time. Moreover, I also like your sister, you like your brother. If you don't dare to say something, let me tell you for you?"

"Don't--!" Yang Qingxiao's pretty face turned red with shame. She hurriedly grabbed Yue'er who was about to leave. Her other hand subconsciously covered her mouth, "Don't do anything random..."

"Then tell me, do you really like your brother?" Yue'er didn't insist, just stared at her with wide eyes and asked.

Yang Qingxiao's face turned redder, but somehow, she actually nodded gently and silently admitted this feeling. Seeing this, Yue'er giggled again: "I just said I wouldn't read it wrong. Since that's the case, why don't you tell your brother?"

"I..." Yang Qingxiao didn't know why she didn't dare to say what she liked, it was not like her decisiveness when she was doing things in the tutor. And when she thought about it carefully, she couldn't remember when she fell in love with Li Ling, whether it was after the two sides helped each other that night, or when he blocked her that night...

"Sister Yang, if you really like your brother, you should tell him quickly. I believe your brother will also like you, just like those books, as long as the young master and the lady talk about each other, they will definitely be together."

Yue'er's encouragement before going to bed was still echoing in her ears, but after more than an hour, Yang Qingxiao still couldn't make a decision. She was worried that once she said it and Li Ling didn't accept it, the two of them might not be able to meet again. Moreover, she was just a woman in the martial arts world, but he was an official of the court. Can the two really get together?

The entanglement in his heart made Yang Qingxiao completely lose her mind and sleepy. At this time, a few hums suddenly came from the front yard, and there were also the faint sound of fighting...

Fighting sound - At this moment, Yang Qingxiao suddenly woke up from her random thoughts, quickly turned over to put on her clothes, looked at Yue'er who was still sleeping, and then quickly went out.

But just as she closed the door, Yue'er woke up in a daze while sleeping soundly. When she saw that there was no one around her, the little girl was stunned at first, and then she thought of something and smiled at the corner of her mouth.

The good things that Yue'er imagined naturally did not happen. Yang Qingxiao had already followed the sound after leaving the door, and then saw three people fighting in the darkness. She could see clearly at a glance that Li Moyun was fighting against three, but because of her rush to hurt the enemy, she made a huge flaw on her left.

Two steel knives were already roaring, and he was about to be injured under the knife, Yang Qingxiao did not hesitate at all. With a cold snorkeling, her slender hand raised, and a little cold light was already flying out under the cover of the night. She was one of the four great masters - Xueli Needle!
