After a few days of great joy and sorrow, I am very tired.Despondently, I finished my lunch with a spoon, just wanting to go to sleep again.

Ye Tan raised his eyebrows and said, "Master's physical condition seems to have improved suddenly."

Yes, I can sit on a table and chair and eat like a normal person at the moment, which is already a great progress.

Rubbing between his brows, Ye Tan asked again: "Master, what's wrong?"

"I have a question to ask you." After eating this meal, my mind was rested for a moment, and I sorted out the things of the past few days in detail, "I don't know if these things are related to me. If you don't If you want to mention it, you don’t have to force it.”

Ye Tan respectfully said: "Master please show me."

I nodded: "First, I went back to the inn to pick up the books yesterday, why would someone want to arrest me? Who is Ze Que and what is his purpose? He mentioned Yue Chang Sheng in his words, and who is Yue Chang Sheng?" Second, Zeque said that you were expelled by the second young master. Who is the second young master? Was he also your former master? But a few days ago in Yexing, the shopkeeper clearly said that the shadow guard is employed for life, but why did you change the master? ?besides……"

I paused, I didn't want to touch his past, but I was really surprised: "Ze Que seems to be very interested in your swordsmanship, why did you lose all your martial arts?"

The questions were all gone, and there was no sound.Ye Tan seems to have completely forgotten the etiquette of avoiding my eyes, staring at me in silence.

"I'm sorry. It may involve your sad past..." I quickly waved my hands, "If you don't want to say it, forget it, I'll just ask casually."

"The master misunderstood. The subordinates are just... a little surprised." Ye Tan said meaningfully, "It turns out that the master is so thoughtful, and the subordinates are blind."

I muttered: Is this a compliment or a detriment to me?

"This first incident is indeed entirely the fault of my subordinates. According to the written records of the day, my subordinates indeed wrote Zhongliyuan Yuechangsheng. Yuechangsheng is the most favored guest of Zhongliyuan's young master Zhong Zixu, and eats and wears everything inside and outside the city. Fees, as long as you give your name, Zhongliyuan will take care of it. It is the subordinates who have the courage to misjudge the master as him, because apart from Yue Changsheng...the subordinates can't find another person with the appearance of the master. "Ye Tan bowed his head and pleaded guilty, "It's a pity that the subordinate is stupid, and he guessed wrong. It also made the master risk his own life, and it is hard to absolve himself of the blame."

"Where is Zhongliyuan?"

"Zhongliyuan is a hundred miles east of Changluo City. It is a century-old famous family with great prestige in both black and white. Now the eldest young master is a prodigal son and indulges in having fun. Everything inside and outside is managed by the second young master. The second young master is unparalleled in intelligence and business. In addition, he recruited many sects of the Jianghu, and got acquainted with the rich and powerful, and these two years have become even more prosperous. Ze Que is one of the best swordsmen under the young master's command, and he is famous all over the world."

"That's weird." I touched my chin, "Don't you think there's something wrong?"

Ye Tan said: "The master's mind, the subordinates dare not speculate."

I sighed: "Can you still have a good conversation?"

Ye Tan respectfully said: "Ye Xing admonishes, just kill people, don't ask right or wrong."

I suddenly felt that the road was long, and I covered my face and sighed.

Ye Tan hurriedly said: "If the master has an order... the subordinates should try their best."

Only then did I nod my head in satisfaction: "A child can be taught."

Ye Tan lowered his head and thought for a while, and said: "Subordinates dare to guess, since Yue Changsheng is a favored guest, if he is still at the mansion, Ze Que should know that the master is a fake before he comes."

"Yes, Yue Changsheng is not only not in Zhongliyuan, but no one knows his whereabouts." I nodded in agreement, and said, "But it doesn't have much to do with us."

Ye Tan said worriedly: "But the master repelled the Ze sparrow, and it can be regarded as refuting Zhong Liyuan's face. They have been going smoothly for many years, and I am afraid that they will not be able to swallow this breath."

He was willing to speak normally, so I became happy and asked: "Is that second young master your original master?"

Ye Tan was dazed for a long time before answering: "...Yes."

I waited quietly for a long time, and he said again: "Second young master, he... Zhong Ziqi, is one of the best heroes and talents today, literary and martial arts, not to mention. It's a pity that my skills are not good, and I am not good at protecting my master, so I was abolished in martial arts .The second young master is so talented that it is useless to keep me, so he sent me back to Yexing."

I wondered: "Then why did the night walk boss say that he is employed for life?"

"Actually, these two sentences are not wrong." Ye Tan sighed, "The shadow guards of Ye Xing can indeed be returned. It's just that since Ye Xing was established, no one has ever been returned.  …Subordinates It is the first case in history.”

"Then why?"

"Because..." Ye Tan looked out of the window, as if his thoughts were flying, "The procedure of going back to the night walk is a thousand times more troublesome than killing the shadow guard directly."

I frowned.

"Dark guards like us who don't deserve a name, casualties are trivial matters. But to return the shadow guards, the owner has to take the shadow guards back and forth to the sub-helm and the main rudder several times, consuming a lot of material and manpower to do various things. It proves that you have to get through the night walk and agree to take back this humiliating scum. People who can buy shadow guards are either rich or expensive, who would waste their energy running around for a worthless pariah? It's easier and easier to kill."

I can't help but dumbfounded.

"...Second Young Master, he spared no effort to spare your life, so he must really like you." I curled my lips.

Ye Tan seemed surprised: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

I tilted my head again: "Night Tan, tell me the truth, if I hadn't bought you that day, what would have happened to you?"

Ye Tan said calmly: "This subordinate will definitely not survive two nights."

"Isn't that weird?" I shrugged, "Zhong Zixi insists on saving your life, but he refuses to heal your wounds. What's on his mind?"

"Second Young Master is a dragon and phoenix among people, his thoughts... His subordinates have never understood."

I chewed it several times with my eyes closed, and I felt more and more that there was something in the night tale.

Without disturbing his memory of the old man, I got up and went out leisurely.

After I got out of the courtyard, Ye Tan realized: "Master is going out?"

I hooked the corner of my mouth: "Drink tea and pick up girls."
