Chapter 35 third quarter

Without hesitation, Liu Yin pushed open the secret door, got in, and closed the secret door.A small lamp was lit inside the secret door, and there was a ladder leading straight down. Liu Yin quickly climbed down from the ladder and came to a utility room. Liu Yin called out in a low voice: "Brother Xianliang!" A person flashed out of the utility room, it was Zhang Xian, who made a shush gesture to Liu Yin.But Liu Yin's originally cold face immediately melted away, and when she saw clearly that it was Zhang Xian, she didn't care about it at all, she ran up two steps, hugged Zhang Xian tightly, and big tears poured out immediately , cried silently.

Tears were also in Zhang Xian's eyes, he gently stroked Liu Yin's hair, and whispered: "Liu Yin, Liu Yin..." Liu Yin raised her head, with tears on her face, and said, "Brother Xianliang, I always thought you were dead! You know how hard it has been for me these years! I miss you all the time." Zhang Xian said: "It's hard to say! Liu Yin, are you willing to go far away with me? Go to a place where no one can find us anymore!" Liu Yin cried: "I think! I think about it every day! But Duan Shizhang sent someone to watch me every day. He is very capable, and we can't escape from his palm! Brother Xianliang, my body has already been taken over by Duan Shizhang. I don’t want you to lose your life because of me, who is no longer innocent! If Duan Shizhang finds out our secret, he will kill you immediately!”

Zhang Xian wiped away Liu Yin's tears, and said with a slight smile: "Liu Yin, you still cry so much, don't cry, be good." Liu Yin held back her tears and said, "I don't want to cry. I haven't cried for a long time, but I can't help it. Why is my life so hard? Why is God so unfair to us?" Zhang Xian said: "Liu Yin, let's not believe that fate is predestined by God, and fate is in our own hands. Do you believe me?" Liu Yin nodded fiercely and said, "Believe me! I will always believe you!" Zhang Xian looked into Liu Yin's eyes and said affectionately: "I will definitely take you away, safe and sound! I have been using it for many years, and I am ready. You just need to do what I say."

Liu Yin put away her tears, and a bright smile appeared on her face. Butler Liu stood anxiously outside the bathroom door, applauding and applauding came, and he knew Zhang Xian had appeared from the sound.Although Butler Liu didn't wait too long, he was always a little restless. Now that Zhang Xian's magic had begun, Butler Liu couldn't bear it anymore, walked to the door of the bathroom, knocked on the door lightly twice, and said with a low voice. He called out, "Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Liu? The magic has already begun." The door opened with a bang, causing Butler Liu to take two steps back in fright.

Liu Yin still walked out coldly, Liu Butler hurriedly said: "Mrs. Liu, I'm really sorry, because it's the beginning..." Liu Yin snorted coldly: "I know the time, thank you!" Liu Yin walked quickly back to the private room, followed closely by the bodyguards.Butler Liu walked a few steps, touched his face, his face was gloomy and uncertain, he looked back at the door of the bathroom, clicked his tongue lightly, and followed quickly. Ten days later, at dusk, in Duan Shizhang's house, Steward Liu led the mayor of Peking, Feng Congwen, to the door of Duan Shizhang's room in a hurry.Butler Liu knocked on the door and said, "Master! Mayor Feng Congwen is here."

Duan Shizhang's voice came from inside: "Come in!" Steward Liu pushed the door open, followed by Mayor Feng. Duan Shizhang was holding a slender cigarette holder, holding an ancient book in his hand, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, walking and watching while walking, and said without raising his head: "Sit!" Mayor Feng thanked him repeatedly with his briefcase in his arms, and sat respectfully in the guest seat at the side of the hall. Duan Shizhang came over and sat on the dragon-tiger chair in the middle, still concentrating on reading, and said in his mouth: "Wonderful! Wonderful! Well said!"

Mayor Feng didn't dare to disturb him, so he glanced at Butler Liu beside him for advice. Butler Liu said with a smile, "Master Duan is in a good mood recently." Duan Shizhang snorted, "Steward Liu, go get some tea!" Butler Liu said "Yes" repeatedly, and stepped aside. Duan Shizhang put down the book, took off his gold-rimmed glasses, threw it on the book, looked at Mayor Feng, and said, "Mayor Feng, what are you looking for me today? It's not a good thing, so don't talk about it." Mayor Feng hurriedly took out a stack of papers from his briefcase, stood up and handed them to Duan Shizhang, and said politely: "Master Duan, with your presence, the charity donation in Beiping City has been a great success. Five million yuan, this is the list of charitable donation merchants."

Duan Shizhang took it, casually flipped through a few pages, chuckled, put it on the table without looking carefully, and said, "That's good! I've seen a lot of iron cocks, but this time they all plucked their feathers!" Mayor Feng retreated to his seat and sat down, smiled cautiously and said, "It's all thanks to Master Duan, and it's all thanks to Master Duan." Duan Shizhang said: "Mayor Feng, you have to use the money well. If you let me know that someone is seeking personal gain from it, and it can't all reach the hands of the army, you know the consequences."

Mayor Feng hurriedly said: "Don't dare!" Steward Liu served tea, and the three of them chatted about other things. They had finished talking about a cup of tea. Mayor Feng didn't dare to stay for a long time, so Duan Shizhang ordered Steward Liu to see off the guests. Just as Mayor Feng walked to the door, he came back again and said, "That's right! Master Duan, there is one more small matter. Give me your idea." Duan Shizhang was holding up the book, and said impatiently: "I have to make up my mind on small matters?" Mayor Feng hurriedly said: "If you say it's not small, if you say it's big, I think this matter has something to do with Master Duan, so..."

Duan Shizhang snorted, "Then just say it!" Mayor Feng took out a piece of paper from his briefcase, with densely written English on it, walked up two steps and handed it to Duan Shizhang.Duan Shizhang glanced at it and scolded: "It's all in foreign language, I can't understand it, you just say it." Mayor Feng said: "The British sent us an invitation, saying that the United Kingdom will hold the five-yearly International Magic Conference, and we are asked to send magicians to participate, and the people above arranged for me to organize it. But I thought about it, no Go, the British look down on us again, go, the journey is far away, and there may not be any gains. What's more difficult is that we don't have suitable candidates."

Duan Shizhang said: "The World Magic Conference? What kind of thing? I haven't heard of it before." Mayor Feng said: "It is to invite magicians from all over the world to compete in magic and juggle tricks. Whoever becomes better will win a medal. This is the fifth session. We were not invited to the previous four sessions. It is said that this International Magic Conference is It is the most authoritative and magical competition in the world, each country can only send one magician, if they can get the top three, it can give the host country a big limelight." Duan Shizhang hummed for a long time, and said: "It's interesting, go, you should go, we can't let the British look down on us, thinking that there is no one in China!" Mayor Feng said: "I think so too, it's just a question of candidates, Master Duan..." Duan Shizhang sneered, and scolded: "Is there any need to think about it? Zhang Xian! Who else is there besides him!" Mayor Feng smiled and said: "Zhang Xianhao is good, but Lord Duan, don't you and Mrs. Liu often go to see his magic tricks? If he goes, it will take at least four or five months before he comes back. You and Mrs. Liu On weekdays..." Duan Shizhang was taken aback, frowned, stood up, walked two steps with his hands behind his back, and said, "This is a difficult problem. How about it, Mayor Feng, you go back first, and I will find someone to inform you another day."
