Chapter 327: A big smokescreen!

The morning a few days later.

Zhang Cheng, holding his waist, walked out of the brothel.

Ding Xiu beside him was using his Miao blade as a cane.

Looking at the two, the procuress waved her handkerchief and said: "Guest, come again next time!"

Ignoring the procuress's words, Zhang Cheng looked at Ding Xiu and said: "How is it, listening to music in the brothel is good, right?"

"It's good, it's just a bit harmful to the body; we martial arts practitioners avoid it the most!"

Speaking to Zhang Cheng beside him, Ding Xiu's face was full of serious expression.

But looking at Ding Xiu, Zhang Cheng frowned and said: "You can say such things, it really opened my eyes!"

"Don't underestimate Ding, fighting two of you is not a problem!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng with a full face of seriousness, Ding Xiu couldn't help but puff out his chest, but the next second, he continued to lean on the Miao blade.

Twitching his mouth looking at Ding Xiu, Zhang Cheng didn't know why, but in some aspects, he was really stubborn!

Finding an inn, the two stayed temporarily.

After resting for two days, Ding Xiu found Zhang Cheng and said: "Tell me, what exactly do you want me to do!"

"I haven't thought about it yet, but I want you to help me get promoted!"

Looking at Ding Xiu earnestly, Zhang Cheng turned serious.

And looking at Zhang Cheng, Ding Xiu hesitated for a long time and said: "Who do you want to kill?"

"Let me think for two days before saying!"

Refusing Ding Xiu's idea of going to take action now, Zhang Cheng turned serious.

Because if he kills the Battalion Commander now, it won't be his turn anyway; he has to clear the connections first!

Looking at Zhang Cheng before him, Ding Xiu doubted: "Your personality is not suitable for being an official, you should be an assassin!"

"How do you know I'm a part-time assassin?"

Taking out a Black Stone, Zhang Cheng placed it on the table.

And looking at the Black Stone, Ding Xiu revealed disbelief: "Black Stone?"

"You know?"

Looking at Ding Xiu with a full face of playfulness, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but chuckle.

"Nonsense, in the entire Great Ming, who doesn't know Black Stone? They are even more evil than the Embroidered Uniform Guard and the Eastern and Western Depots!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng before him, Ding Xiu played with the Black Stone and said: "I really don't know how you joined such an organization!"

But just as Ding Xiu's words finished, Zhang Cheng said: "According to what you said, if I climb up from Black Stone, wouldn't I be able to hold the handles of many people?"

"Don't think about some things that don't exist; the leader of Black Stone, no one knows their true identity to this day!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng seriously, Ding Xiu squinted and said: "This world is not as simple as you think!"

"Could it be that there are land immortals in this world?"

Looking at Ding Xiu playfully, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but tease.

If there really were, Zhang Cheng wouldn't run around the world, he would just start researching flintlock guns.

After all, no matter how well you can fight, you can't withstand bullets, right?

Zhang Cheng: My lord, the era has changed!

"There are no land immortals, but there are quite a few experts who can break a hundred alone!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Ding Xiu ate a steamed bun, his eyes full of smiles.

And hearing Ding Xiu say this, Zhang Cheng asked: "And you?"

"Me? Twenty cavalry is about it; any more, and I can't win!"

Speaking indifferently, Ding Xiu clearly had a clear understanding of his own martial arts.

"Twenty cavalry?"

Looking at Ding Xiu, Zhang Cheng knew the opponent wasn't lying to him.

After all, this ruthless person is a ruthless person who dared to charge at Mongolian cavalry.

Single blade breaking a spear, the single blade might be a unique skill, but the spear is not necessarily.

Just like on the grassland, if you fight Mongolian cavalry, as long as people maneuver, if you don't die, then you are truly amazing!

"Then I'm a bit better than you, fifty cavalry!"

Looking at Ding Xiu with a full face of smiles, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

And after hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Ding Xiu looked at Zhang Cheng in disbelief: "You have this strength, why look for me?" "Some things, if I take action, will leave a lot of trouble!"

Looking at Ding Xiu, Zhang Cheng smiled.

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Ding Xiu hesitated for a moment and said: "You don't want to dirty your hands, so you found me!"

"Hey, you kid is too smart!"

Looking at Ding Xiu with surprise, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but smile.

"Cut the crap, you find me to do things, whether I do it or not, you have to pay, if you're short one cent, I'll chop you too!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng earnestly, Ding Xiu turned serious.

Facing Ding Xiu saying this, Zhang Cheng spread his hands and said: "I just want to find an insurance!"

But just as Zhang Cheng's words finished, a knock on the door sounded.

Vigilantly placing his hand on the Miao blade, Ding Xiu looked at the door.

Signaling Ding Xiu to calm down, Zhang Cheng walked forward silently.

And just as he opened the door, a waiter smiled and said: "Guest, someone asked me to send this to you!"

Picking up the letter, Zhang Cheng looked at the stone mark on it and immediately said: "Alright, you can go!"

(Reading)

Returning back, Zhang Cheng closed the door and opened it.

Looking at the handwriting on it, Zhang Cheng immediately frowned and said: "Zhang Haiduan?"

"Isn't that the Chief Grand Secretary?"

Hearing this name, Ding Xiu couldn't help but be surprised.

"It seems this Black Stone is even more terrifying than I thought!"

Revealing a confused expression, Zhang Cheng fell silent.

Because as an assassin organization, Black Stone even dares to move against the Chief Grand Secretary, doesn't that mean how arrogant the aura behind them is?

But thinking about it, Zhang Cheng turned his head and said: "What big things have happened in the court recently?"

"You're asking me?"

With a face full of confusion, Ding Xiu was astonished.

And looking at Ding Xiu, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but roll his eyes, because he really asked the wrong person.

After going out in the afternoon, Zhang Cheng first went to the Jin Ling Battalion Commander's office.

And after careful registration, he successfully entered the job again.

As an Embroidered Uniform Guard in Jin Ling, if his life didn't have a "big change," he would likely end his life here.

However, Zhang Cheng was clearly not a person who would settle down, because when he was checking the court gazette, he found that Chief Grand Secretary Zhang Haiduan had fallen out with the Emperor because of some things, the reason being the Ning Prince at the border!

Looking at this court gazette, Zhang Cheng squinted; he suspected there was a huge problem inside.

Because Zhang Haiduan didn't want to move against the Ning Prince, he wanted to ensure the stability of the Great Ming empire.

But the Emperor wanted to move against the Ning Prince, that was to seize power.

But now that the Chief Grand Secretary is blocking in front, what should the Emperor do?

"Black Stone, could it be the Emperor's blade?"

Thinking of the Son of Heaven currently on the throne, the cultivation expert Jiajing, Zhang Cheng felt a tingling scalp.

Because other emperors, Zhang Cheng is not clear, but Jiajing is definitely capable of doing it.

Just think about it, an emperor who hasn't held court for twenty-four years but can balance the court—what a terrifying wrist!

And as Jiajing's chess piece, Zhang Cheng could also figure it out.

"Really interesting! A Bodhidharma's remains, not only solved the Chief Grand Secretary, but also easily eliminated the forces of the world..."

The corners of his mouth rose, Zhang Cheng squinted.

A few days later, Zhang Cheng, who was on duty, was resting at the Battalion Commander's office when he suddenly saw a knight rush in from outside.

When he ran in in a panic, a quarrel came from inside: "What, the Japanese pirates have landed!"

"My lord, we must pass the order down, otherwise the big matter is gone!"

Looking at the Battalion Commander before him, the messenger Embroidered Uniform Guard couldn't help but shout.

And hearing this sentence, the Battalion Commander also hurriedly rose and said: "Quick, tell everyone along the way, evacuate as soon as possible..."

"Japanese pirates?"

Suddenly hearing these two words, Zhang Cheng's eyes instantly shone.

Because he felt he could get promoted again!
