Chapter 374

Although the words were spoken sincerely, White Tiger and Suzaku were still slightly suspicious. Hearing that he was not a stranger, Liu Zhiyuan also walked out from behind the screen. After examining the visitor, he casually sat down and drank tea.

"Don't you two believe me?" Looking at the suspicious expressions of the two, the man spread his hands and asked in disbelief.

Bai Hu didn't say yes or no. He turned around and found a chair to sit down, remaining silent from beginning to end. Suzaku, on the other hand, felt helpless and raised his head and sighed.

He said angrily: "I believe it, I definitely believe you."

Without waiting for anyone to react, Suzaku walked to the side and sat down, drinking tea silently.

This made the visitor a little at a loss and could only sigh quietly. Fortunately, he soon noticed that Youdao's curious gaze had been falling on him.

He raised his eyes and met Zhao's eyes. He smiled politely and asked: "Oh, this young man is handsome and handsome. He has an extraordinary temperament at first glance. You must be General Liu Zhiyuan Liu, right? I didn't expect to reach the first rank at such a young age. You are really formidable!"

Zhao raised his head and looked into his eyes, unable to understand what he was saying for a moment. Next to him, Liu Zhiyuan pinched his sleeves nervously, his expression dull, and he didn't know what to say.

White Tiger and Suzaku were already laughing.

"Pfft."

"puff."

The visitor was not affected at all, and continued to praise Zhao Jiu non-stop. All kinds of complimentary words continued to flow out, such as his elegant and suave temperament, and the pillar of the country that held up the sky.

Zhao was so praised that he felt embarrassed. He pointed at Liu Zhiyuan next to him and reminded him loudly: "Hey, little brother, you got the wrong person! I am not Liu Zhiyuan, he is Liu Zhiyuan!"

"Hello, I am Liu Zhiyuan." Liu Zhiyuan waved.

After saying this, Bai Hu, Suzaku and Zhao all tilted their heads and suppressed laughter, and the room was filled with an awkward atmosphere.

Hearing this, the visitor straightened up the corners of his mouth, scratched his head and said with a smile: "My eyes are clumsy, my eyes are clumsy."

He wanted to speak, but didn't know what to say. At this time, Suzaku saw that he was at a loss and quickly spoke to save him, "Brother, it's better not to say anything."

"Okay." The visitor smiled gratefully and sat down in front of Zhao Ju.

"Who is he?" Zhao raised his chin and asked.

The visitor quickly stood up, cupped his hands and said awkwardly: "The Jin Yiwei command Qian Shi, Qinglong. Since you are not General Liu Zhiyuan, you must be Zhao Muzhi, right?"

"It's me. Are you the only one here?" Zhao asked.

Qinglong said frankly: "Yes, I am the only one here."

Hearing this, Zhao looked slightly sad, glanced at Liu Zhiyuan sitting next to him, and shook his head.

"What do you mean?" Qinglong asked strangely after seeing Zhao Jiu's little move.

"I don't mean to look down on you, it's just that Jiangnan is not peaceful, and more people will make it safer."

"Hey. We don't have many soldiers, we have elites! Those stragglers in the south of the Yangtze River are just embroidered pillows, useless! Don't worry, I am enough!" Qinglong waved his hands disdainfully and walked out of the passage.

But what he didn't expect was that the sadness on Zhao Jiu's face not only did not diminish, but actually increased.

"If it were Lu Wenyu who came, I would believe it."

After the words fell, not only Qinglong, but also Baihu and Suzaku all looked at him, their eyes full of doubts.

Jiang Nan didn't seem to have much trouble, so why did the trouble get to the point where he wanted to ask the Fifth Master to take action?

The three of them couldn't figure it out.

Suzaku simply asked: "Old Jiu, have you discovered anything? How can the situation in Jiangnan be so serious? Don't be alarmist."

"Haha." Zhao smiled bitterly.

He stood up and walked to the window, saying as he walked: "The situation in Jiangnan is more serious than you think!"

After glancing outside the window a few times through the cracks in the window, he closed the window and turned back to Qinglong and asked: "Did you conduct any advance inspection when you came to Jiangnan this time?"

"No." Qinglong said.

"Then, has Fifth Master ever confessed anything?"

"No."

"Is there any news from Jinyiwei in Jiangnan recently?"

"Nothing either."

The four people in the room frowned slightly, really unable to understand the meaning of the words. On the other hand, the expression on Zhao Jiu's face became increasingly ugly, and later he became as sinking as water.

"What do you want to say? You might as well say it bluntly." Qinglong was a little impatient and simply said in a deep voice.

Hearing this, Zhao felt a little helpless, "I'm curious, why don't the Jin Yiwei know anything? How can we escort General Liu to Beijing if we don't even have information?"

"They are nothing more than top-notch warriors. We three little masters can't send General Liu to Beijing?" Qinglong said nonchalantly.

"A top-grade martial artist? Oh, you really don't know. Is there a great master in Jiangnan?" Zhao tilted his head and asked in surprise.

"What?" Bai Hu exclaimed.

"Grand Master?" Suzaku was equally surprised.

Qinglong couldn't sit still anymore and stood up holding on to the table. He looked at Zhao Jiu in horror, with disbelief written on his face.

But Zhao found it a bit funny. They don’t know anything, they don’t know anything, they don’t understand anything, they can’t even find out anything, isn’t this just asking them to die!

He shook his head and explained with a wry smile: "Besides, I suspect that Jiangnan... has more than one great master!"

Forget it, there is more than one Grand Master! The three of them were stunned for a moment. Even Liu Zhiyuan's hand holding the tea cup was trembling slightly and he swallowed unconsciously.

There seemed to be an invisible heaviness pressing down in the room, and all four of them felt more depressed than ever before.

"Are you coming for us?" Qinglong's tone was trembling.

Zhao shook his head, "I'm not sure yet, but I have to guard against it."

Suddenly Zhuque seemed to have thought of something, and asked faintly: "You mean..."

"Yeah." Zhao Jue interrupted.

He explained softly: "The matter on the mountain, and the reappearance of the Bu Tian Bao Jing, I don't think it's that simple."

"Are you having an ulterior motive?" Baihu asked.

"Yes." Zhao Jue nodded.

"Master He and I were being hunted down, maybe... someone is making trouble, but I really can't think of why they would set up such a deep trap."

He touched his chin and said affirmatively: "If you say it's just to kill people, I don't believe it. There must be another hidden story, maybe the plot is very big."

Looking at the serious expression on Zhao Jue's face, Qinglong was also a little shocked. He didn't want to know what the plot was, but if there was really a grandmaster in Jiangnan, then things would be complicated.

It must be investigated, at least to find out why the grandmaster came. Otherwise, the next matter of escorting Liu Zhiyuan to Beijing will definitely be difficult to handle!

Qinglong kept a gloomy face and said nothing, silently considering how true and false Zhao Jue's words were.

"Brother..." Zhuque reminded softly. She knew Zhao Jue was cautious and extremely cherished his life. If there was any basis, he would definitely not speak easily. Besides, there were indeed many abnormalities along the way, so she believed it.

"Alas." Qinglong frowned.

After a little thought, he said, "No matter what, the Fifth Master will not come to Jiangnan, but the Grand Master has to pay attention to it..."

"Let me write a letter to the capital and let them check it out."
