As the night progressed, Sun Tu was in no rush to go back after breaking up with Di Yingyang. He walked slowly alone on the streets of Tokyo with alternating light and dark, appreciating another kind of quiet beauty of this great city. He used this to search for memories from many years ago. As for Tang Feng and other personal guards, he was left behind in Fanlou. It was the first time for them to enter such a famous and prosperous place, so it was natural for them to have a good time.
Calculating carefully, the last time Sun Tu left Bianjing was eight or nine years ago. If it were placed a thousand years later, the appearance of a city would have changed drastically in eighty or nine years, and the scenery in front of you would probably be completely different from what you remember. But in the Song Dynasty thousands of years ago, there was no such problem. Everything seemed like yesterday. The same streets, the same quietly flowing river, and even the shops on the other side of the street looked unchanged. .
With a faint smile on Sun Tu's face, he strolled, looking around casually, but finally landed on the underground river ditch not far ahead. If there was anything I could be proud of in Bianjing back then, it might be that he followed the clues, struck hard, and completely eradicated the worry-free caves that had plagued the local area for many years. I guess the women in the city now have to pay back their children. Much safer…
Just as he raised the corner of his mouth slightly, feeling proud of his deeds back then, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a black shadow in the dark ditch in the distance. This made his heart skip a beat, and he quickly stretched out his body. Just go to the corner over there. But when he got there, he found that there was just a culvert with water flowing out underneath, and there was no other abnormality.
Seeing this, Sun Tu's brows furrowed even deeper. He knew that he could never be wrong. Someone did flash past the ditch just now, and the reason why he disappeared must have gotten into the culvert. The man was so familiar with the road that he had an extremely familiar feeling: "Wuyou Cave, Ghost Fan Tower... Could it be that a few years have passed and these things have resurfaced again?"
Although there was hesitation in his heart, Sun Tu had no idea of venturing into the cave at this time. Although he is not afraid, after all, his status is different from before. The son of a rich man cannot sit down in court, so his current status is more than ten thousand gold? After staring at the dark culvert again for a long time, like the open mouth of a beast, he finally turned around and left. Even if there was a problem, it was not something that he had to find out now. He could find an opportunity to go to Kaifeng. Please tell me everything.
In the culvert at the rear, a man in black was covering the mouth and nose of the thin woman in front of him with his hands, making her unable to speak. His eyes were fixed on the guy above who had turned and left. He didn't look up until he saw her leaving. He let out a long sigh of relief. If I hadn't been alert, reacted quickly enough, and dragged the person into the cave in time, I would have been caught by that troublesome guy. Looking at that man's speed, I'm afraid I might not be able to take him down.
"If you dare to speak out, I will kill you with one knife!" After whispering threatening words in the woman's ear, he removed his hand from her face and loosened the other hand around her shoulder. Then, the woman in his arms fell softly...
It was only then that the man in black suddenly realized that because he had used too much force just now, he had actually suffocated the person to death. This made his face suddenly show annoyance, and he was very annoyed
He sighed and said, "It's bad luck. If grandpa knows who you are, you will regret it!"
After saying harsh words, he dragged the woman into the cave for a while, then abandoned her and followed the complicated underground river here to go elsewhere. And this poor woman disappeared from the world so quietly, and by the time she was discovered, she would be reduced to a pile of bones.
Under the cover of the prosperous appearance of Bianjing City, evil continues to breed. The evil forces that were once eradicated have resurfaced unknowingly...

It's nearly three o'clock at night, and most of the people in the city have fallen asleep, but many people have not yet gone to bed. They are either indulgent or busy with affairs. Gao Qiu, who came back from the banquet, was a combination of the two. He was a little drunk, but his steps were still steady, but his slightly red face showed a bit of joy.
Seeing this, his confidant Pei Donglai hurried forward and reported the news he had just received: "Lieutenant, someone just sent news that Sun Tu actually met with the rest of the dandy subordinates of the Huben Army at Fanlou tonight. I don’t know what we talked about, but in the end Sun Tu and Di Yingyang, who was newly transferred to the Huben Army, left there first."
Over the years, he suffered several losses at the hands of Sun Tu. Seeing him constantly getting promoted, Gao Qiu had to face up to, and even take seriously, this young man. Even though he had returned to Tokyo this time and seemed to be completely under his control, Gao Qiu no longer dared to relax, so he sent people to secretly follow Sun Tu early and asked people to report his specific itinerary every day. Report to your place with the people you have met.
After listening to Pei Donglai's words, the smile on Gao Qiu's face faded, and he was no longer in a hurry to drink the sobering soup brought by people. He squinted his eyes and frowned and thought for a moment: "This Sun Tu is not a worry-free person." Damn, you can actually do something like this under such circumstances."
"Lieutenant, don't worry too much. Those dandies are just little people who don't deserve to be on the stage, and none of them have much ambition. Their father and brother at home only raise them as idlers, so it's hard for them to be successful."
"Having said that, Sun Tu can often turn corruption into magic. Sometimes it's really hard to guard against it." Even Gao Qiu himself didn't expect that his evaluation of Sun Tu had reached such a high level until he said it. , only then did he realize that something was wrong, and his face became more and more gloomy.
I can only change the topic: "What's going on with Di Yingyang?"
Pei Donglai did not dare to say anything and quickly replied: "He was transferred to the Huben Army a few days ago, and now he has become Sun Tu's subordinate."
"I'm asking why he has such a close relationship with Sun Tu? Only he can help Sun Tu gather this bunch of dudes together, right?"
"This... it seems that the Di family has some kind of relationship with Sun Tu. There is no detailed information about this matter yet." Pei Donglai answered carefully. At least not many outsiders know about the relationship between Ya'er and the Di family. After glancing at his master with a gloomy face uneasily, he added: "However, it is reported that Di Yingyang has visited Sun Tu's residence many times in the past few days. The earliest time was before he was transferred to Before the Tiger and Ben Army."
"Hmph, so they've hooked up a long time ago? The Di family... Di Huchen, what does he want to do?" Gao Qiu lightly touched the case with his fingers, showing a vigilant expression. Although Di Huchen was not a high-ranking official and only served under his subordinates, he relied on his ancestors to
On top of that, as well as the relationship between several brothers in the border army, it is really an extremely difficult nut to crack.
Pei Donglai naturally understood this and wanted to dissuade him, but in the end he endured it. Fortunately, Gao Qiu knew at this time that it was not an accident, so he snorted again: "No matter what their plan is, the key is to suppress Sun Tu first. As long as Di Huchen doesn't come forward on his own, let him do it." go."
"Captain Yingming, the top priority now is to let Sun Tu make a big fool of himself first, so the key point is with the Huben Army."
"Yes, Tiger and Ben Army, a puddle of mud, can't they really climb the wall?" Gao Qiu muttered softly. And Pei Donglai hurriedly said: "Lieutenant, we have to take precautions, so I think we should put some more pressure on him so that he has no time to worry about anything else."
"you mean?"
"The murder of Yan Ziliang has already caused uproar in the city, and it's time to put it on the table."
"Yes, let's ask the Yushitai to launch an impeachment, and then let Yan Ziliang's family go to Kaifeng Mansion to beat drums and complain, and accuse Sun Tu of killing people at will. With this two-pronged approach, I can intervene in this matter and deal with him properly." In order to deal with it. Sun Tu, this time Gao Qiu used all kinds of methods and really treated him as his biggest enemy.
When Pei Donglai heard this, he felt at ease in his heart, and he quickly praised him again: "The Taiwei is wise, this will ensure that everything is foolproof!" In exchange, Gao Qiu laughed proudly...
Under the same night sky, Lieutenant Gao in the luxurious mansion in the deep courtyard was plotting against Sun Tu, while another group of guys hiding deep in the ditch and never seeing the light of day also focused their hateful eyes on the long-lost name of Sun Tu.
"Sun King of Hell is back again..." Several men gathered together with pale faces, their words filled with fear and resentment.
These people were all the fish that slipped through the net when Sun Tu suppressed the bandits in Wuyou Cave. It can be said that they are the ones who have truly learned Sun Tu's thunderous methods, so they hate and fear him, and they don't even use his name. He called him Sun King of Hell.
"Not only did he come back, he also became a Yue Marquis and led a forbidden army. How many brothers died because of him. Who would have thought that after so many years, he would become such a wealthy and important minister of the court."
"The blood of those brothers cannot be shed in vain, and revenge must be avenged!" Someone expressed his thoughts through gritted teeth with burning eyes. Although the others did not speak, their eyes showed deep hatred, and they all wanted to avenge themselves.
"But can we really make it happen?"
"Today is different from the past. At that time, we could only rely on that money king, but it is different now. Our backers are much stronger. As long as Tai Sui Ye says a word, the Sun King of Hell will die. .”
"Yes, let's beg Tai Sui and let him stand up for us. Isn't it just a matter of helping him find more good-natured beauties? Isn't this something we can easily get?"
"In addition, we can also let our brothers watch secretly and look for opportunities. He, Sun King of Hell, would never have thought that we would seek revenge from him many years later!"
That night, Sun Tu, who was walking on the streets of Tokyo, had no idea that from the temple to the rivers and lakes, his enemies were already ready to attack him...
