Du Si? Hearing the name of the two women saluting Nian Jiu, Yu Shiqi's mind buzzed as if something exploded.

As far as he knows, there is only one kind of person in the world who can use such a title, and there is no doubt that he is the assassin of Wangchuan. The organizational structure of Wangchuan is divided into two levels. The ferry leader and the left and right ferry leaders are the ones at the upper level who give orders, while the lower level

The members of the organization are controlled by the branch leaders in each region. The title of the branch leader is Dusi.

"Okay, get up, don't scare Mr. Yu." Nian Jiu waved to them both, "You should also salute him. He is Yu Yanzhi, and you must have heard this name not long ago."

The two women turned their gazes, each with a look of surprise and joy in their beautiful eyes. They bowed to Yu Shiqi as instructed and said in unison: "See you, young master."

There was no joy on Yu Shiqi's face. He held down the hilt of the sword at his waist and asked coldly to Nian Jiu, who was sitting on the edge of the bed with his head tilted and looking at him: "Who are you?"

"Young master presses the sword, do you want to kill me?"

Yu Shiqi was stunned for a moment, and slowly released his hand holding the sword hilt. Although he was angry in his heart, he was not ready to kill Nian Jiu, who had just saved his life.

He just doesn't like the feeling of being deceived.

Ever since he was ordered to join Nian Jiu's team from Shanzhuang, he has always regarded Nian Jiu as a trustworthy colleague of Yunzhong Sword. He was once a comrade in the 11th edition of the sword team. Until a moment ago, Nian Jiu had to save him even if he was injured.

The friendship still moved him so much, but now everything seems to have changed.

"Du Si? Special task force? Let me ask again, who are you?"

"Asking a man wearing a mask that question..."

"Don't use the same excuses as before to deal with me." Yu Shiqi interrupted him sharply, "I didn't ask before because I thought you were Yunzhongjian and a survivor of the Battle of Jiangzhou."

"what about now?"

"You are from Wangchuan and an assassin..."

"Is it the assassin who deserves to die, or the Wangchuan people who deserve to make you so angry?" Nian Jiu sighed softly.

"I hate it when people lie to me."

The two women on the side listened to the increasingly heated conversation between them, both of them shivering in silence, and no one dared to speak out at this time.

"Yanxun, my right foot is injured. I'm not sure how serious it is. Can you help me take a look?" Nian Jiu did not continue talking to Yu Shiqi, but turned to the woman nicknamed Xiao Yan'er and asked.

.

"I'll help you take a look, Du Si." Xiao Yan'er stepped forward and carefully took off Nian Jiu's shoes and socks. Xiao Tao'er also stepped forward to help gently support Nian Jiu's right foot with both hands.

Yu Shiqi saw the bruises and swelling on Nian Jiu's ankle, and remembered that he was injured because of himself, and the resentment that had been pent up in his chest just now that was difficult to express suddenly dissipated on its own.

He walked forward and knelt down next to Xiao Tao'er, and said to her: "Let me do it. I have learned some medical knowledge in Yunzhongjian. If you hold the spell like this, it will cause him pain."

Xiao Taoer lowered her head guiltily and stepped aside: "Young Master, if you need anything, please just tell me, I'll be right by the side."

"Don't call me young master, I haven't promised Zhong Lingqi to inherit his things." Yu Shiqi held Nian Jiu's right foot firmly with one hand, and helped Xiao Yan'er roll up Nian Jiu's pants with the other hand.

"They respect you just because you are the son of the ferry master. It has nothing to do with whether you want to inherit the ferry master's things or not." Nian Jiu said lightly.

"Absurd." Yu Shiqi refuted, "Does a person's bloodline also have high or low status?"

"Who knows?" Nian Jiu leaned back, propped his arms on the bed, and murmured: "Maybe this is the way the world is."

"That's why this world is ridiculous."

The conversation between them was suspended due to Xiao Yan'er's diagnosis. After carefully examining Nian Jiu's ankle injury, a woman named Yan Xun in Wangchuan came to a definite conclusion: "Du Si, although your injury is a sprain,

The injury, the bones are fine, but the muscles and veins are also injured... The most important thing right now is not to move too much and you need to rest."

"How long does it take to recover?"

"It can be as long as a hundred days, or as short as more than a month... It varies from person to person, so I can't say for sure."

Nian Jiu smiled bitterly: "I understand, thank you for your hard work."

"Du Si, I'm going to get you some hot water. I'll apply it to the injury first to see if it can relieve the swelling and pain."

After Xiao Yan'er finished speaking, she left the room. Xiao Tao'er stood aside awkwardly, feeling that she could not help, with an expression on her face that looked like she was about to cry.

Fortunately, neither Yu Shiqi nor Nianjiu focused on her, which made her feel a little more relaxed.

"Why go to the imperial capital when you're injured like this?" Yu Shiqi said angrily.

"Of course I'm going for the mission."

"You are an assassin from Wangchuan. Why do you fight so hard for Yunzhongjian?"

"It's true that I am from Wangchuan, but I never said that Yunzhongjian's identity is fake." Nianjiu replied, "I am Wangchuan and I am also Yunzhongjian. Do you understand this?"

"I don't understand. Wangchuan and Yunzhongjian are like night and day. How can you have two identities at the same time?"

"You don't want to believe me."

"You're not even willing to take off your mask, how can you be sincere to me?"

Nian Jiu fell into silence, Yu Shiqi didn't speak, and the room was silent for a while.

"Believe it or not, it's up to you." After a long time, Yu Shiqi heard Nian Jiu say this as if he had given up.

"I must go to the Imperial Capital, you don't need to persuade me."

Yu Shiqi looked at him in surprise, wondering why he was so persistent.

"Didn't you say you owe me a favor? Please, keep my identity a secret until the mission is completed." Nian Jiu pleaded, "If Yu Youci and the others knew that I was also Wangchuan's Dusi, our team would still be

You will become disloyal before you reach the imperial capital."

"Okay." Yu Shiqi agreed happily.

"Thank you."

At this time, Xiao Yan'er came back with a basin of hot water. She wet the towel, wrung it out, and applied it to Nian Jiu's ankles.

"Du Si, do you have any other instructions?"

"Have you heard anything strange from the guests recently?" Nian Jiu asked them.

"Something strange?"

"Anything related to Yuan Ye in the Imperial Capital, or the Dragon Blood God Cult, is fine."

The two looked at each other and shook their heads in confusion.

Nian Jiu didn't have much hope at first, so he nodded and said: "One more thing, please go outside and see if there is a big man with a bronze ax and an enchanting woman with red hair and red clothes nearby. If so.

, don’t alarm them.”

The two women agreed and left the room to inquire about the news.

Yu Shiqi had calmed down at this time. After some thinking, he had basically ruled out the possibility that Nian Jiu was a spy planted by Wangchuan in Yunzhongjian. The members of Yunzhongjian were either orphans raised in the villa or their identities were unknown.

He is a son of a good family, and people like him and Yu Youci who joined the Yunzhongjian from the Tongfeng Sect were strictly investigated for their identity and background when they joined the team. If Nianjiu had become Wangchuan's assassin first, it would have been absolutely impossible for him to do so again.

Recruited as Yunzhong Sword.

Unless someone in the sect leader association gives permission, how could such a person normally participate in the Jiangzhou operation that year as a newcomer to the 111th Sword Team?

As long as Nian Jiu did participate in the Jiangzhou operation, Yu Shiqi can be sure that he must have become Yunzhongjian first, and then acquired the identity of Wangchuan due to some unknown chance.

"Stop guessing." Nian Jiu's voice suddenly sounded.

Yu Shiqi suddenly came back to his senses, his expression seemed a bit disbelieving - could Nian Jiu see through his own thoughts?

PS: The recent rise in popularity is a bit scary. Do you all just read and not talk? (hint)

Recently I'm thinking about writing a side story about Yu Shiqiu's trip to Jiangzhou two years ago, which will probably be released at the end of this volume (if it's finished)
Chapter completed!
