They rested for a day on the second day, and on the third day Qi Yunfei came over and brought a message from Cui Yilin, asking Tang Ning to go see him when she woke up.

Tang Ning followed Qi Yunfei to the backyard of the caravan and entered the room. Cui Yilin was holding a book in his hand and looking at it intently. Seeing the two of them coming, he closed the book and said with a smile, "How is it? How does the sunset red taste?"

Tang Ning guessed that Sunset Red must be the name of the wine. She lowered her head rather awkwardly and said, "Disciple has lost his composure."

Cui Yilin waved his hand: "Walking around the world, sword and wine are indispensable. If you have free time, don't forget to read and cultivate yourself."

"Disciple noted it down."

"I heard from Yun Fei that you don't know how to control your internal energy yet. I have a Ziyun Secret Book here, which is a high-level internal energy and mental method. You need to practice it day and night."

Tang Ning took the book. The writing was yellowed, and the cover had four big characters written on it, Ziyun's Mental Technique.

"Thank you, Master."

"Since you are my disciple, you naturally have to learn swordsmanship. I took this Meteor Sword Manual from a swordsman master in my early years. You must study it carefully. If you have anything you don't understand, feel free to ask me." Cui Yilin added.

He took out a book and handed it to Tang Ning: "Since you are here today, we, master and disciple, are here to have a simple meal."

Tangning thought to herself that she didn't tell Liu Ruhan that she wouldn't go back to eat when she went out, so she would be waiting for her. But when the master spoke, he couldn't refuse, so he could only nod in agreement.

"Yunfei, are things going smoothly in the gang? Your Uncle Yin is stubborn, but he is a very good person. I heard that you had a dispute with him the day before yesterday, right?" Cui Yilin asked after the three of them sat down.

"It's just that we have different opinions, so we discussed it for a long time and didn't argue." Qi Yunfei said, his body as straight as a pine tree.

Tang Ning has also inquired about some situations within the gang in the past few days. Although Cui Yilin is the leader of the caravan, he does not actually manage the specific affairs of the gang. The affairs of the gang are handed over to the four elders Yin Zhengxian, Dong Shuhai, Mo Qianshan, and Hou Yutang.

reason.

As for why he does not manage the affairs of the gang, it is said that he is a martial arts fanatic who is obsessed with martial arts and does not pay attention to such trivial matters.

"Well, you should listen more to your uncles. Let go of those things if you can. Spending more time on the path of martial arts is the right path."

"yes."

"Ning'er, I heard you say last time that your parents were killed by thieves. Do you know who they were?" Cui Yilin looked at Tang Ning.

"I didn't know that that day when a disciple went up the mountain to cut firewood, he was attacked by a wild beast and fell off the cliff. When he returned home the next day, he found that his parents had been killed." Tang Ning concealed part of the story.

He really didn't want to mention this matter again, and even if he told the truth about that day, it would be useless. Now he no longer thinks about things like the Luoyun Mountains, but only thinks about living a stable life.

"Do your parents have enemies? What was the murder weapon?"

"My father and mother are human beings. They are villagers and have no enemies. The murder weapon is an ordinary sword."

Tang Ning simply hid it. Now that she had finally found a stable life, if she told the whole story, it would arouse others' doubts. Besides, others already thought it was strange that he had developed his inner strength so quickly. Adding on those things, he didn't want to be "remembered" by others.

"It's also difficult.

"I think you are the thief of Luo Cao. The world is in trouble now. Fortunately, you survived the disaster. You must be blessed..."

The door opened, and several maids brought in the food and wine.

After the three of them finished eating, it was already dark. Tangning said goodbye to Cui Yilin and Qi Yunfei and returned to the room. Liu Ruhan was sitting at the table looking straight at the door.

When she saw him coming back, she hurried to greet him. Tangning closed the door and held her hand: "Ruru, the master asked me to stay for dinner today, have you eaten?"

Liu Ruhan nodded.

"I told the master, let's go back tomorrow and see Uncle Min. Aunt Min, what do you think we should buy?"

……………

Time passed by like a flash, and two years passed in a blink of an eye. In the courtyard, a disciple dressed in black walked forward and said to Tang Ning, "Deacon Tang, the leader invites you to go to the meeting hall."

"Okay." Tang Ning put the sword back into the sword post. He was known as the deacon in the caravan, and he was mainly in charge! Well, to be honest, he didn't know it himself.

The two came to the meeting hall, and the disciple retreated. In the hall, Cui Yilin sat in the upper seat, and next to him was Yin Zhengxian. Below stood a man in black, who was Qin Luo.

"Master, Uncle Yin." Tang Ning saluted the two of them.

"Ning'er, I have asked you to come here this time because I have something to tell you." Cui Yilin said.

"Master, just ask."

"Your martial arts have improved rapidly in the past two years. I think it's time for you to go out and experience things. Experience in the world is very important. Although you are still young, it will never go wrong to get in touch earlier. It's just right.

The annual tour is coming soon, so go with Qin Luo!"

"yes."

"Well, let's go back and prepare for departure tomorrow."

"Disciple, please leave." Tangning retreated.

The annual inspection is the annual regular inspection of the caravan. The caravan has influence all over the Chu State and has halls in many places. These halls are all affiliated to the caravan, but they usually go about their own business. Because of the long distance, the caravan has no control over these halls.

We don’t know much about the specific situation, so we conduct inspections.

The job of the inspection is to report the specific situation of the lower halls to the gang. To put it more simply, it is to check whether they have deceived the superiors and deceived the subordinates.

Tang Ning returned to her room. Liu Ruhan was sitting on a stool knitting clothes. Tang Ning sat in front of her: "Ruru, let me tell you something."

Liu Ruhan put down the needle and thread in her hand and looked at him

"Master called me just now and asked me to go on inspection with Senior Brother Qin. It will probably take two months."

Liu Ruhan became anxious upon hearing this and made gestures repeatedly.

Tangning looked confused: "You want to go too? But we are doing serious things, not just having fun, so Master won't agree."

Liu Ruhan became even more anxious, looking at him with big watery eyes and gesticulating with her hands constantly.

"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious!" Tangning quickly held her hand: "Then I'll ask Senior Brother Qin."

Liu Ruhan nodded, tears still rolling in her eyes.

Tangning had no choice but to go to Qin Luo's residence and knocked on the door, but no one responded.

Tang Ning was waiting at the door. After a while, Qin Luo came back and saw Tang Ning waiting for him at the door. He smiled and said, "What's wrong? What can I do?"

"Well, Senior Brother Qin, let me ask you something." Tang Ning lowered her head and said.

"Tell me! What's the matter?"

"Um, how long will it take for us to come back this time?" Tangning swallowed the words as she was too embarrassed to speak.

"I can't tell, maybe one or two months, maybe two or three months."

"oh."

"Any thing else?"

"Gone."

"Is everything okay?"

"Gone."

"Then I'm leaving. I've made an appointment with someone to go drinking tonight."

Seeing him walking away, Tang Ning breathed out softly.

After returning to the room, Tang Ning, who had secretly breathed a sigh of relief just now, now looked at Liu Ruhan's hopeful eyes and felt a little guilty.

"Ruru, I've found Senior Brother Qin, but I'm too embarrassed to tell him."

Upon hearing this, Liu Ruhan burst into tears.

Tangning quickly wiped her tears: "Don't cry, I promise to come back as soon as possible, okay?"

Liu Ruhan ignored him and just kept crying.

Tang Ning was also in a panic and was in a hurry. She didn't know what to do and kept wiping her tears.

It wasn't until the night when the two turned off the lights and fell asleep, Tangning hugged her tightly that she stopped, her little nose still twitching.

Tang Ning kissed the teardrops on her cheeks. The two of them had never been separated. They were together every day and slept with each other in their arms every day. He felt bad that they were suddenly separated for so long.

But he knew in his heart that there was nothing he could do about it.

………

"Vice Hall Master Qin, the brothers are here, why don't you start?" A man in black said in the caravan Juying Hall.

Qin Luo yawned: "Wait a little longer! Yesterday, the gang leader asked Junior Brother Tang Ning to follow us, but he hasn't arrived yet."

"This Tangning is too arrogant. He makes so many of us wait for him because of his status as the gang leader's disciple. He is so arrogant at a young age. He will pay for it in the future." After waiting for a while and no one was seen, one person said angrily.

"I guess I overslept! Ah Lian, go and see what's going on..."

Before Qin Luo finished speaking, Tangning appeared at the door and trotted in: "I'm sorry, Senior Brother Qin, I'm late."

Qin Luo smiled and patted his shoulder: "I thought you overslept and forgot! Let's go."
