It is almost dusk. The last afterglow of the autumn sunset falls on a lonely and deserted hill several miles away in Tokyo, shining between the tombs that can only be restrained for various reasons.

Sun Tu slowly poured a glass of wine into the mud in front of one of the small graves. Who would have thought that Zhou Tong, a master who has been famous in the world for decades, would have been so silently buried in such an unknown cemetery that he had only sloppyly engraved his name on the tombstone.

And just this is thanks to Cui Lue Shang and others who raised money to bury him, otherwise... as soon as he thought of this, Sun Tu's guilt became stronger and stronger. He hated him for not caring about his master so much, and why he had not learned about this matter until today.

In fact, Sun Tu is not a bad person. He has returned to Bianjing for a long time and has not yet visited his master. On the contrary, it is precisely because he cares enough that he dare not come to the house. Because he knows very well how many powerful officials and treacherous officials in the court over the years. Sun Tu has a marquis and great achievements, and those people dare not take revenge. But if they know Zhou Tong's existence and let them know that this is a person he attaches great importance to and cares about, it will probably bring him a catastrophe. Even if Zhou Tong is famous in the world and has high martial arts skills, it is still not worth mentioning in the eyes of those senior officials in the court, which makes him effortless.

However, this good intention was so bad news that Sun Tu could not accept and forgive him at all. At this time, he stood in front of the grave in a daze. After a while, he knelt down and knocked three times hard: "Master, my disciple is unfilial and cannot protect you. I know that no matter what I say to you today, I cannot make up for my mistake. I can only promise you that I will find out the real murderer who killed you. No matter who he is, I must make him pay ten times a hundred times a price to comfort your spirit in heaven!"

What Sun Tu said was actually quite calm, and there was not much anger or gritting teeth on his face, and his tone was even more plain. But when he heard Cui Lue Shang and others who saw him, he felt a chill involuntarily, and he faintly saw a bloody storm about to blow in Tokyo.

This made them dare not come forward to comfort him, and they could only stand by silently. It was not until the sky was completely dark that Sun Tu stood up, patted the dust on his body, and looked at Cui Lue Shang with a nervous look on his face and said, "Thank you for your willingness to help Master and his old man be buried in peace. I, Sun Tu, have recorded this love. Do you have anything else to tell me about this?" As he said that, his eyes were directly focused on his eyes.

This made Cui Lue Shang even more palpitations. He wanted to shirk, but he didn't dare. Finally hesitated and said, "I dare not hide it from the Marquis of Yue. In fact, something happened after this incident. A man named Zhou Xiong was suddenly taken into the prison by my Kaifeng Mansion. It is said that he was taken down because of beating and killing people in the street. The ones he killed were just a few of the thieves from Guifanlou... This matter was nothing, and he could even be regarded as a brave act, but Zhong Tongzong, who was in charge of the criminal prison, suddenly changed his words and convicted him of a serious crime. He was still detained in my Kaifeng Mansion prison today..."

When he heard him mention the name Zhou Xiong, Sun Tu's eyes sank. Although he didn't have much contact with Zhou Xiong, he remembered clearly that this person was his nephew who had been following his master for a long time. Does he killing people at that time mean that he had found out the truth of the matter and had no way to ask for advice, he could only take the risk and kill people himself?

This also made him feel a little anxious and asked, "How can I see him now? No, I have to find a way to save him. What crime did he be convicted of?" In a hurry, Sun Tu's mind was a little confused, which was extremely rare.

"Even the youngest people in the prison can't get in, so it's up to Punishment Zhong Tong to decide. Moreover, because he has a big backer in the court, even the prefect Zhou sometimes has to avoid three points, so it's very difficult to start from here."

After Sun Tu looked at him for a while, and confirmed that what he said was not false, he could only suppress his anxious mood for the time being. Then, he thought of a more important thing: "Where is Wan'er? Where is she?" Seeing that the other party was a little confused, he explained again: "Zhou Xiuwan, that is, a young woman who has been following his master... "Thinking that more than ten years have passed, Zhou Xiuwan is no longer a girl, Sun Tu quickly changed his words.

Cui Lue Shang shook his head: "I don't know this. When we arrived, there was only Master Zhou inside and outside the yard, and there was no one else."

Sun Tu walked two steps a little uneasy. If she thought about it well, maybe Zhou Xiuwan had already been married, so she had nothing to do with this, so it would be a blessing in disgrace. But if she was involved, and even fell into the hands of some people, as long as she thought about her situation, Sun Tu was anxious and wanted to turn over the Tokyo city completely and find someone.

After taking a few deep breaths and forcibly calming himself down, Sun Tu patted Cui Lue Shang on the shoulder: "Fortunately this time, I wouldn't know when I would be hiding it. Don't worry, I won't let you take risks in this matter. I have a way to find out everything!"

"Mr...." Cui Lue Shang hesitated for a moment and said something in his heart: "Although the villain is dull, he also sees that the inside story is very deep. Maybe it involves some extravagant figures. I hope you can think twice before you act. Don't ruin your future because of a moment of anger."

Feeling the other party's sincere concern, Sun Tu felt warm again: "Don't worry, I, Sun Tu, have never been a reckless person. What's more, my status is not low now. In this Tokyo city, there will not be too many people who can fight me!" As he spoke, he turned around and looked at the dimly lit Tokyo Bianliang in front of him. The murderous aura in his eyes could not be covered.

Beside him, the guards stood up like javelins, each with a firm face, without any worries at all, as if they were telling their general that no matter what he did, they would go up to the mountain of swords and down to the sea of ​​fire, into the dragon pond and into the tiger's den, and they would follow them and defend to the death.

Seeing all this, Cui Lue Shang was both envious and frightened. He was afraid that this matter would really cause a big mess. He didn't even know whether he told the truth or not...

￥￥￥￥￥￥￥

It was not until the beginning of the day that Sun Tu returned home with heavy steps. Seeing that he looked depressed, Ya'er and Hu Rong didn't dare to disturb him too much. They just thought he was busy with business affairs recently, so they were a little tired. Even his son Hutou was only in front of him for a while, and was taken down by the wet nurse.

It was not until the couple were left in the room that Sun Tu revealed the bad news he learned today and mentioned that Zhou Xiuwan was missing. This time, Ya'er was so sad and worried: "Grandpa Zhou was just here? I have been in Tokyo for several months, but I didn't know anything..." I don't know how to judge the seniority, but Ya'er has always called her husband's master like this, and then she said even more worriedly: "There is Wan'er, the third brother, she, she won't have any trouble, right?"

Sun Tu shook his head helplessly: "I don't know, I just hope she can be lucky. But tomorrow I will ask someone to find the relevant news, at least I will find Wan'er. Also," he remembered another thing and looked at his two wives solemnly: "You must be careful when going out in the future. It is said that the Gui Fanlou, which I destroyed, has been revived, and they seem to want to seek revenge on me. Of course, I am not afraid, but you may become the target of them, and there is also a tiger head. In this way, starting tomorrow, I will ask a few brothers to follow you closely, and not give them any opportunity to take advantage of it."

"Yeah." Ya'er nodded sensibly: "We won't go out if we have nothing to do, and we won't let them succeed."

However, Hu Rong turned her eyes at this time and wanted to try: "Sanlang, this may be a chance. If I go out and lead those people to appear, can you help you find the murderer who killed his master?" Since marrying Sun Tu, she has been at home, but she has never put aside her martial arts practice. Sometimes she has thought of trying her own skills as before, but now she seems to have found a reasonable excuse.

Sun Tu immediately shook his head and objected: "If it doesn't work, that's too risky. Although you have good martial arts skills, you don't have enough experience in the martial arts world. Especially if you don't know the despicable methods of those guys, you can't be guarded against. Even the master and his old man have excellent abilities... Now it's the most important thing to ensure your safety, and you can take your other things slowly."

Although Sun Tu rejected his proposal a little disappointed, feeling the concern from him still made Hu Rong feel happy and nodded and responded: "Then I will listen to Sanlang and don't take risks."

Seeing the two women's well-behaved and obedient appearance, Sun Tu's sadness, self-blame and anger improved a little. Then, he had calmed down again and thought about the responsibility of rectifying military affairs on his back, getting back military rations, and fighting with those guys who were greedy for military pay.

Thinking of this, I suddenly felt that the burden on me was heavier than I thought. Judging from the current situation, the most urgent thing is to put down the trouble that I had already provoked, otherwise, as long as I reveal my flaws, I will be caught and attacked, especially when Gao Qiu is there.
