The hand gradually came closer to Minte. If he felt something, he quickly rolled to the side and jumped up. He found that it was a man covered in black like himself. His face was also covered. An ice sword immediately formed in his hand. , across the chest.

The moans and gasps of men and women continued to be heard from the direction of the big bed, but in this corner of the tent, two men in black were facing each other with only one meter apart, but they did not dare to make a sound, so as not to alarm the people in the room.

After a long time, the person who came after him suddenly bent his eyes and pulled down the black scarf covering himself, revealing a face full of beards. Minte's eyes flashed and he relaxed a little, but he still didn't dare to be careless.

Jie winked and pointed at the document in his hand. Minte didn't know what he meant, but he suddenly revealed a bronze wristband on his left arm, shook it towards the box, and then disappeared it. Then he took out another one that was exactly the same.

Minte's eyes widened. What was he going to do

Jay put the box back in its place, waved to Minte, and went to the back of the tent. Minte hesitated for a moment, then followed, and found that he had followed her through the crack.

The two left the main tent, and Jie quickly rushed to the tent area where the guests lived. After a while, they came to a second-class tent. An oil lamp was lit inside, the light was dim, the clothes were bulging, and it seemed that someone was lying there. .

Jie looked back and saw Minte staring at the bed, smiled, walked over and lifted the quilt, and Minte found that there was only one pillow, and then he realized that Jie had deliberately made it to deceive others.

Jie said: "This is where a friend of mine lives temporarily. He is not here right now, so he is lending it to me." Then he said to Mint sternly: "Give me what you got. I think your employer should Isn’t it necessary?”

Minte paused: "Something? What thing? I only saw you took away a whole box." The documents had already been stuffed into the ring, so he couldn't get it.

Jie poured himself a cup of tea and said: "Your employer seems to be very extraordinary. He actually gave you a little guard equipped with storage equipment. I'm afraid his status is not low, right? Or..." He rolled his eyes, "Your identity is more than just a guard?"

Minte was shocked. But his face showed nothing: "I don't understand what you mean. I am just a guard. I am just trusted by the master. I came to investigate this matter. The master specially lent me the storage device that he finally got. Yes. I'm just afraid that I will delay my trip because of some trivial things." In short. I just borrowed the land because I was afraid that he wouldn't have anything to eat or drink when he was following someone else. This excuse is a bit forced. But it is related to the secrets of noble families. What can anyone say

Jay stared at him for a few moments. He smiled and said, "Whatever you say. But I must get that thing. Whatever you, or your employer, want, feel free to ask. I dare not say that I can do anything for you. But the advantage is There will never be a shortage of land. I believe that if the young master of your family was here, he would know how to make the right decision."

Minte sneered and said: "It's a pity that the young master is not here now. No matter how much you say, it's useless. I got this thing. Why should I give it to you?" These words were exactly the same as when he first met Jie that night. What Jie said to little Duras was almost the same.

Jie's smile became a little cold: "You should have read the first few pages just now. Do you know that what is mentioned has nothing to do with you? I remember. You are just a little guard of a noble family. That document means nothing to you. Worthless. But very useful to me. I remember we still have a cooperative relationship. Are you going to change your mind now?"

Minte raised his eyebrows: "It's just those pages. Who knows if it really doesn't matter? I saw that Paro holding this thing and looking at it for a long time. Maybe the people behind him were mentioned in the following pages. Who is it! I was entrusted by my employer. I must find out the landowner who kidnapped and trafficked my future young lady!" He glared. Just stick to the fake identity to the end!

Jay chuckled. Pull out the dagger from your waist. Playing with it with interest. But he said casually: "Honestly. I think you are pretty good. You dare to come alone to investigate at such a young age. If you don't have to, I really don't want to hurt you."

Minte sneered: "What? You want to threaten me? My swordsmanship may not be as strong as yours, but it's not that easy to deal with!"

"Don't be nervous -" Jie said slowly, "We all do things secretly. It's not fun if people hear any noise. Even if my identity is exposed, they don't dare to do anything to me. But you, a guard, can't do anything to me." Dress like this and run into the guests’ tent. Those people will surely become suspicious, right?”

Are you saying it's not a threat? Minte snorted coldly and turned his wrist. Conjures an ice sword. If he really wants to fight with force, he may not be an opponent. If he can't beat him, he can just run away. With that thing, there is no need to continue to lurk.

Jie smiled nonchalantly and glanced behind him suddenly. Minte felt something and was about to avoid it, but was a step too late. He felt a chill on his neck. A black sharp blade was placed on his neck, and the chill spread everywhere.

He recognized that this was the weapon used by the ghostly black shadow he had seen that day. He couldn't help but regret it. How could he forget that there was such a person? Moreover, when did the other party run behind him, he didn't notice it at all? !

Minte looked at Jie who was smiling happily to himself, and glanced at the dark figure behind him from the corner of his eyes. He gritted his teeth with hatred. After weighing the balance, he said, "Okay, I can give you the thing, but I want Take a copy with you!"

Jie stared at the pattern on the dagger carefully: "Xiao Minte - your name is Minte, right? Have you forgotten what I said? Those things have nothing to do with you, there is no need to know too much."

The black blade scratched the skin, leaving a thin trace of blood. Minte took a deep breath: "I understand." He had already read a few pages. As long as he reported the contents, even if he didn't know it comprehensively, Milo There will be a way. The most important thing now is to spread the information!

With a flip of his hand, he took out the document from the storage ring. The chill on his neck disappeared immediately. Then with a flick of his hand, the document was snatched away by the shadow and sent to Jie.

Jie flipped through it a few times, then took out the box from the wristband, opened the lock, took out the ID, looked at it for a few times, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

Minte stared at his wristband, and with a thought in his mind, he asked: "Why did you change the whole box? Just take away the useful things, right? Also. How can you have another one that is the same?" ?”

"The box is made by my uncle's craftsman. If he can make one, he can naturally make another one." Jie just looked at the things in his hands, a little casually, "There are several of our cousins. Everyone has a box like this. , but the patterns are different. The workmanship of the one just now is actually much rougher, but you can't tell it at first glance." After a pause, he was a little confused: "Speaking of which, how did you open the lock? I don't seem to know. Saw the key."

Didn't he see Namu peeking at the file? Minte immediately decided not to tell the story, after all, there was one more trump card. Just one more chip. He said: "When the people in the main tent opened the box, I did something to make the lock unable to be locked. By the way. Is that your cousin? I heard that he is a close friend of Prince Noga." He changed the subject.

"What kind of close friend is a fair-weather friend?" Jie sneered, "How could that idiot be my cousin?!"

Minte sighed secretly and kept staring at Jie, who felt a little uncomfortable: "Why are you looking at me?"

"You've lost your beard."

"Eh?!" Jie was startled and touched his beard. Sure enough, it was a little loose. It seemed that it had hit the ground when he was pulling the towel. But...he turned and glanced at Minte: "It seems...you guessed it?"

"As long as you take off your beard, you can probably tell your age, and with what you said just now, your identity will be revealed. And your wristband has a pattern of a eagle-headed griffin engraved on it, which is Nuo The symbol of the Jia royal family." Minte pointed out the other party's flaw keenly, "Judging from his age, status and swordsmanship, the most likely candidate is Duke Jada." There were two things he didn't say, which was the other party's voice. . There was also a chance encounter a few years ago.

Jay, or Duke Jedda, glanced at Minte in surprise, with admiration in his eyes: "Not bad, it seems you are smarter than I thought."

Minte twitched the corner of his mouth and said: "Since you are the Duke of Noga, why did you come to Weisha? If it was to save Miss Junia, why did you come here in disguise? A person touched someone else's room in the middle of the night. Stealing things...isn't what a duke should do, right?"

Jie was stunned for a moment, with a hint of bitterness in his smile: "This matter is very important. It's not surprising that I will carry out it myself."

Any inside story? Minte's mind quickly recalled the intelligence from the Security Agency regarding the disputes in the Noga royal family.

at this time. Suddenly there was the sound of galloping horse hooves outside, and then someone rang the big bell at the door. Wake everyone up.

Minte hurriedly approached the door to see what was going on. Jada glanced at the shadow, who then ducked out and came back shortly to report: "It's the West Guards, they've arrived at the gate." , seems to surround the entire entertainment oasis.”

West Guards? Minte cast his eyes on the document, wondering if it had something to do with it

The main tent was alarmed when the bell rang. The noble young man cursed and put on his clothes: "What's going on?! Why did the West Army come?!" He touched Namu's pretty face next to him. The latter had already put on the red gauze, combed her hair slowly, and smiled sweetly at him.

The man in gray clothes standing on the side was a little unhappy when he saw this, and said dryly: "Obviously the news has been leaked. We must leave quickly. If we are found by the Weishaar army, the consequences will be serious."

Although the young man was mediocre, he knew that this man was someone trusted by the prince, and what he said must make sense, so he had to quickly arrange his clothes, ask someone to pick up the box containing the documents, and leave. After taking just two steps, he stopped again and looked back at the beauty he had just enjoyed: "Namu, come with me. Anyway, you can only be a dancer for the rest of your life if you stay."

A trace of astonishment flashed across Namu's face, but she quickly calmed down: "I'm very willing, but...can you let me tell the class leader? It will be done soon."

"I can't wait any longer, let's go now!" Without saying a word, the young man pulled her up and got out of the tent. A group of followers outside the door had prepared carriages, and everyone was waiting for them with their horses. She looked back anxiously, but was forced into the carriage and left with the young man and his party.

Minte hid on the edge, hesitating whether to follow or not. At this moment, he caught a glimpse of Esparo running out of the tent, getting into the carriage with the man in gray, and driving away. Looking back at the commotion in the direction of the gate, he boarded the carriage without thinking for long.

Before he ran far, two more people appeared beside him. When he turned around, he saw that it was Jada and his shadowy follower! He asked angrily: "What are you doing here?!"

Jada hissed and said with a smile: "That kid actually dared to come to the interior of Weisha. Maybe there are border guard leaders helping him. I want to know who they are."

This was Nuojia's internal affairs. Minte snorted coldly and did not ask further. He just followed the group of people under the moonlight, getting farther and farther away from the entertainment oasis.

As he was running, he found that the seventy-eighth horsemen running in front suddenly slowed down, ran to both sides, then made a big circle, and then ran back to the road, but there were a few fewer horses on them. Where did they go

Minte was suspicious, and suddenly felt a little bad, so he shouted: "Be careful!" At the same time, he jumped up and dodged the knife cut out of the sand. Jada and Black Shadow also rolled to avoid the sneak attack. Suddenly, more than ten or twenty big men on horseback surrounded them, some holding scimitars and some using broad and straight swords. Minte recognized that the former was from the Entertainment Oasis.

A man with a machete smiled sinisterly at Minte: "You are indeed a spy. Mr. Nick has long wanted to get rid of you." The other man with a broad straight sword saluted Jada respectfully. : "I'm sorry, Your Excellency Duke, now that you have discovered it, we can't let you leave here."

Jada sneered and whispered a few words to the black shadow. The latter nodded and ran out of the encirclement in a flash, drifting towards the carriage team. The man holding the broad straight sword cursed a few times and said fiercely: "Kill me! Don't leave anyone alive!" Everyone responded in unison, swinging their weapons and slashing at Minte and Jada.

Jada grinned: "Although we had some unpleasantness before, now, I'm afraid we have to fight side by side."

Minte didn't respond. He quickly drew his ice sword and stabbed an attacker less than two meters away from him.

(It turns out...I can't accumulate manuscripts...why is it indispensable?!)
