Moonlight and wind

Shan Zimo walked to the small flying knife. The sharp blade was inserted straight into the wall. Shan Zimo took a closer look, but he couldn't see anything special about it. It was just a small flying knife. He turned back and looked out the window, to be careful of another hidden weapon flying in. He found a rag for wiping the table from the cupboard in the room, wrapped the flying knife and pulled it off the wall, holding it in his hand and looking at it carefully for a while. Suddenly, he felt sleepy, so Shan Zimo got up, closed the window, wrapped the flying knife and hid it under the bed, and fell asleep on the bed.

He slept so well that Shan Boyu came into the room and woke him up. Shan Zimo sat up from the bed dazed and felt his head was extremely heavy and painful as if it was about to split. "Master, are you okay?" Shan Boyu was worried. "It's okay, maybe I caught a cold from the wind last night?" Shan Zimo reached out and touched his forehead, "It's not hot! Ouch! I feel like all the bones in my body are going to fall apart!" This movement made Shan Zimo feel pain all over his body.

"Master Shan," Jian Yun, who was standing behind him, seemed to have noticed something, "What happened last night?" "Oh, now that you mention it, I remember it," Shan Zimo stood up shakily, lifted the bed board with difficulty, and fumbled for a while, "Hmm?" Shan Zimo frowned, "Where is the flying knife I hid here last night?" "What flying knife?" Shan Boyu hurriedly helped Shan Zimo lift the bed board. "Last night, a flying knife flew in and stuck in the wall board over there!" Shan Zimo pointed to the wall board opposite, where there was a deeper hole, which was the mark left by the flying knife.

Jian Yun stepped forward and touched the hole on the wall panel, "This man has strong internal strength and is an expert in using hidden weapons!" "But where is the flying knife? I clearly wrapped it up and put it here last night?" Shan Zimo tried hard to recall, "Could it be that someone came into this room last night?" "I told you that I was in the same room with you! You just wouldn't listen!" Shan Boyu quickly checked Shan Zimo's whole body again to see if he had any external injuries.

"Someone has been here!" Jian Yun looked around and found a clue. There was a little stain on the windowsill. After careful identification, Jian Yun determined that it was a stain left by the dried river mud. Last night, someone came from the other side of the canal through the half-open window and into Shan Zimo's room.

"How is it possible!" Shan Zimo was surprised and a little scared, "I slept so soundly?" "It's not that you slept deeply, you were drugged!" "Love Incense?" Shan Zimo was suddenly a little excited. He actually got to experience the props in the TV show. "Love Incense, that's too low-level. Since the young master is unconscious, plus your symptoms today, it might be the rare Qi Luo Incense in the world." Jian Yun analyzed. "In other words, the flying knife was not meant to take my life, but to deliver incense?" Shan Zimo drank a sip of tea and felt better. "Exactly!" Jian Yun suddenly reminded him, "Young master, since you are unharmed, see if you have lost anything?"

As soon as he said this, Shan Zimo felt a chill on his back, and he quickly leaned over to touch his boots. "Oh no!" Shan Zimo was shocked, "The dagger is gone!" "Huh?" Everyone in the room questioned at the same time. "Well, on the first day of going out, I lost the mission props!" Shan Zimo suddenly found it a little funny, "What should I do? Can I report to the police?" "Young Master, it's already this late, and you're still joking!" Shan Boyu's forehead was sweating, "Let's look for it again, maybe we put it in the wrong place last night!" Everyone in the room began to look for the dagger, but in the end, they found nothing.

"It looks like this guy is here for the dagger." Yu Wenlin said as he sat aside, "If it were someone else, he would take your life and become famous, which would be worth the trip!" "I have to thank him!" Shan Zimo rolled his eyes. "He came here for the dagger, could he be a member of the Luohui Cult?" Jian Yun questioned. "That doesn't make sense. We are giving them the dagger, why do we have to rob it?" Shan Boyu shook his head.

Everyone in the room sat in a circle, frowning and thinking. "We can think about who would care about this dagger, or who are the famous thieves nowadays." Xuanyue proposed his own idea. "There are really a few famous thieves in Wu State nowadays," Jianyun stroked his chin and thought hard. "The most famous ones are the Thief Saint Brothers, Wu Fa and Wu Tian." "From the name, it seems that they are not law-abiding people!" Shan Zimo laughed.

"Although this brother is a thief saint, there is a code of conduct for thieves. He robs the rich to help the poor." Xuanyue added. "You know this too?" Shan Zimo asked curiously. "Although we have never seen his true face, we have helped the same group of refugees." "Then why did they steal my dagger?" "To sell it!" Jianyun and Shan Boyu said in unison. Suddenly, it seemed as if all the problems were solved, and the whereabouts of the dagger became clear.

"Let's go back again." Shan Boyu stood up and went back to the room to get his bag. "We can't avoid this Mei Ye You City!" "Will they take the dagger to Mei Ye You City to sell it?" Shan Zimo asked, "Aren't they afraid of being recognized?" "So what if they are recognized? Mei Ye You City is a lawless place, and it is a perfect match for Wu Fa and Wu Tian!"

"In that case, I'll go first. I don't think there's any need for me." Yuwenlin stood up and said, "I'll take the water route and go to the East China Sea first. When you arrive, our tea shop should be open!" "Okay! You go first, I'll be there soon!" The two said goodbye, and Yuwenlin took his carriage and went to the East China Sea first.

After seeing off Yuwenlin, Shan Zimo and his four companions walked back the way they came. "We can go to the fun places I mentioned yesterday tonight!" Shan Zimo said to Xuanyue in the carriage. The carriage twisted and turned, passing through a forest. "Heh," Shan Zimo shuddered on horseback, "Why do we suddenly feel so eerie here?" Shan Boyu ignored him on his horse and led the way.

Shan Zimo felt bored following Shan Boyu, and looked around, as if he wanted to remember the way to Meiyeyou City. Suddenly, Shan Zimo caught a glimpse of a few balls hanging on a tall tree in the depths of the dense forest! "What is that?" Shan Zimo pointed to the big tree in the distance. "It may be a bird's nest, nothing to see." Shan Boyu still led them forward. Shan Zimo raised his head and looked at the sun. It was just past noon, and it was still early for Meiyeyou City to open. "It's still early, let's go and take a look!" Shan Zimo pulled the reins, and the horse turned around and walked towards the direction of the big tree. "Don't!" Shan Boyu couldn't persuade him behind him, so he had to let him go.

Soon, Dan Zimo and his group approached the tree. Dan Zimo squinted his eyes and looked up at the tree in the sunlight. "Oh my god! So many heads!"
