A few seconds after the message was sent out, No. 2 was the first to reply, “[ Emperor Yuan jing was assassinated? ]
….. No, what’s wrong with you, little brother? you always talk about Emperor Yuan jing. Did he eat your rice or steal your silver?
Xu Qi ‘an labeled ” number two ” as a nationalistic youth in his heart.
The ancient version of a nationalistic youth.
[ 9: yesterday, the inner and outer cities were all sealed off. No one was allowed to enter or leave. I knew that something had happened. ]
Daoist priest Golden Lotus was still hiding in the capital, recuperating in silence.
Xu Qi ‘an received the message and only wrote half of it. Number one, who was used to peeking at the screen, actually took the initiative to show off and threw out the truth that shocked the owners of the fragments of the nether world Book.
[ one: sang Bo was blown up and the temple of Yongzhen mountain river was destroyed. The thing sealed in sang Bo is missing. ]
Such explosive news was met with silence.
The Earth Book chat group fell into three minutes of silence. No one sent any messages, and no one expressed their shock.
[ 2: what did you say? Sang Bo was blown up? Yongzhen temple of mountains and rivers was destroyed? [ number one, are you sure you’re not toying with us? ]
Number two’s reaction was reasonable. It was as if Emperor Yuan jing had been killed by a man who had broken into the palace alone.
It was just as unbelievable.
It was simply nonsense.
Number four was in disbelief as well. He knew better than number two what kind of place sang Bo was and how heavily guarded it was.
However, number one would never shoot without thinking.
[ four: three, is this what you wanted to say? ]
[ 3: yes, sang Bo has been destroyed. The sealed artifact under the mountain river temple of Yongzhen is unknown. ]
With number three’s endorsement, no matter how hard it was to believe, it was almost a definite fact.
number 1 and number 3 were both in the capital, so they knew the situation in great feng capital the best.
[ 9: what an unbelievable piece of news. Do you have any relevant clues, number one? ]
‘Interesting. The Golden Lotus Daoist priest didn’t ask me, the night watchman, but directly asked number one. Does this mean that he thinks that number one has a higher chance of knowing the relevant clues than me?’
But saying it like this was too careless … On purpose? Or was it because the impact of the explosion of sang Bo was too great that he did not think carefully enough?
[ No. 1: this case has been handed over to the night watchman’s Yamen, the Ministry of Justice, and the government office to handle. I don’t know the specific information. ]
The people in The Earth Book chat group could not hide their disappointment. If even number one, who had an extremely high status in the Imperial court, did not know the specific details, then number three would definitely not know either.
[ 3: what a coincidence. Our Academy has learned a lot of secrets through the corresponding channels. [ I’ve roughly understood the case. ]
Number three knew?
Number three actually knew!
He had just said that he had obtained the information through the Academy’s channels. It seemed like the Yun Lu Academy had planted many spies in the various government offices in the capital.
Hearing what number three said, number five, who was originally not very interested in what happened in the capital of great Feng, also jumped out to watch the show.
[ five: number three, your Academy’s hands are a little too deep. Even number one doesn’t know about it, but the Academy does. By the way, what’s your status in the Academy? ]
Could ordinary students really know such an important secret?
[ 3: I naturally have my ways. ]
Xu Qi ‘an didn’t explain. The importance of leaving a blank was that the smarter a person was, the more likely they would overthink.
They would suspect number three’s identity as an ordinary student, but they would also suspect if number three had other identities. In the absence of strong evidence, the more they thought about it, the more confused they would be.
Yes, number one was a problem. He (she) was not that easy to fool. It doesn’t matter. Number one and I don’t have any conflicts for the time being. Furthermore, I’m getting more and more aware of their identity. At the very least, I’m able to draw a boundary.
[ 3: so, what are you going to use in exchange for my information? ]
Seeing this sentence, everyone felt strange. They felt that the debt was increasing inexplicably.
If No. 3 were to do business, he would definitely be a successful merchant … Number four sighed in her heart and replied, [ I’ve only been focused on cultivation recently and haven’t obtained any valuable information. [ I’ll owe you first. ]
[ two: I’m busy clearing the bandits. Well, when I figure out the forces behind Yunzhou that are manipulating the various strongholds, I can pay off the debt to number three. ]
At this point, number two felt sad for his inexplicable debt.
[ 5: I have an important piece of news, but it will expose my identity. ]
[ 4: heh, you’re from Nanjiang, right? ]
[ one: it should be a noble from a certain Gu clan. ]
[ 2: he seems to be a little warlike. ]
[ five: … ] [ you, you all know about it? ]
Isn’t this obvious? you know the history of the thousand demon Kingdom like the back of your hand, and you keep calling yourself ‘mother’. Moreover, you have also revealed that your father’s status is quite high!
Number five did not seem to be very smart … She’s on the same level as my miss Caiwei … Xu Qi ‘an commented in his heart.
He re-defined the characters in The Earth Book chat group:
Number one had a high status in the Imperial court and was a spy demon.
Number two was a heaven-tier angry youth, but he was very intelligent. He (she) was the one who tested her and number one at the ancestral worship ceremony.
Number four had a good relationship with the head of the human sect. He had once been an official in the Imperial court and was now wandering the world.
Number five was a girl from the southern border’s Gu clan. She was not very smart.
Number six was a highly respected version of Lu Zhishen with a very high cultivation.
No. 7 had run away, and the fragment of the Book of the Netherworld was in No. 2’s hands. The relationship between No. 2 and No. 7 was extraordinary.
Number eight had been in seclusion and had been diving for a long time.
Number nine was the founder of the heaven and earth Association, Golden Lotus Taoist priest, old silver coin.
Number five shut himself in for a while before sending a message, “[ alright, I’m a member of the southern border’s Gu clan. I’m an upright and aboveboard person. I have an important piece of news to tell you. [ number 3, I’ll use this to exchange for the Sang Bo case. ]
[ nine: number five, my injuries have yet to recover. [ if you want to say it, first get everyone to agree that they owe you a piece of information or silver of equivalent value. ]
The members of the Heaven and Earth Society were silent for a moment, indicating that they agreed to owe number five an information.
[ 5: the poison God has started to recover. ]
Gu God? An existence that surpassed his rank, the founder of the Gu Master System? Xu Qi ‘an was taken aback. Although he knew a little about the existence of “Celestials and Buddhas” through the internal information of the White Nightmare Heaven and Earth Society, he was still shocked.
But he still felt it was absurd.
No one spoke in The Earth Book chat group for a long time. It seemed that the shock this news brought to everyone was no less than the explosion of sang Bo.
[ 5: yesterday, a trace of the poison God’s aura seeped out of the abyss. All the low-level venomous insects raised in the village died suddenly, and the high-level venomous insects went crazy and attacked the clansmen. My life’s origin Gu also almost went out of control. My father said that after thousands of years, the poison God has finally recovered, but this is not a good thing. ]
[ 2: not a good thing? ]
[ 5: yes, the poison God is the root of chaos. Devouring and reproduction are imprinted in his instinct. If he revives, all the creatures in the southern border will become his mating and devouring targets. It would turn the entire nine regions into a world with only Gu! [ thus, the Gu clan is gathering experts. We plan to sneak into the abyss in a few days to check out the situation. ]
F * ck, there’s such a thing? The poison God was such a creature?
Xu Qi ‘an was shocked. He was not imagining things like tentacles or silver demons. He was really shocked by the evilness of the poison God.
Xu Qi ‘an was eager to know more about the poison God, but no one asked.
[ 9: this is indeed shocking news. ]
[ three: Taoist priest, is the reason why the poison God is in a deep sleep because he is also sealed? ]
Xu Qi ‘an tried to get information about the poison God.
[ 9: I don’t know. The poison God has existed for a long time. Before humans learned how to use words, the poison God already existed. You can ask No. 5, but I’m afraid that the resurrection of the poison God alone is more valuable than your sang Bo case. ]
The Sang Bo case that’s worth more than me? Xu Qian was unconvinced.
[ five: haha, number three, if you want to know more about the poison God, you can choose to trade with me. ]
[ 3: what do you want? ]
[ 5: my brother is not married yet. I heard that the princess Consort of zhenbei in your Da Feng is the most beautiful woman in the world. I want her to be my sister-in-law. ]
You’re daydreaming … If I have this ability, isn’t it better for me to be alone? why should I let your brother have the beauty … Xu Qi ‘an replied, [ a Princess Consort is not enough. The eldest Princess is also a beautiful woman. I will also send you the state preceptor of our Da Feng. ]
[ 5: sure, sure! ]
[ one: if that’s all, then I’m going to rest. Please keep your mouth shut. ]
Number one jumped out and interrupted the conversation.
No. 5 stopped making a fuss because she also wanted to know the course of the Sang Bo case.[ I only know that the Gu God is the origin of the Gu Master System, the origin of all the Gu in the world. ]
Seeing that No. 5 had finished his speech, Xu Qi ‘an changed his words and began to share his knowledge of the Sang Bo case.
[ the thing sealed under sang Bo might be related to the demon race. Currently, the officials of great Feng have already confirmed that the force that destroyed sang Bo is likely to be the demon race. [ but I don’t know if they are from the North or the remnants of the thousand demon Kingdom. ]
Xu Qi ‘an wasn’t afraid that the news would leak and lead to others guessing his identity.
There were many officials in the meeting hall, including the Ministry of Justice, the government, and the night watchmen. Yun Lu Academy didn’t necessarily obtain information through the night watchmen’s Yamen.
Demon race?
How did it have anything to do with the demons? why did the demons want to blow up the sealed artifact under sang Bo?
The members of the heaven and earth Association were confused.
However, they realized one thing, and that was that the inside story behind the Sang Bo case was definitely not simple.
The only way to solve this was to figure out what was sealed under the Sang Bo.
[ one: impossible. Sang Bo is heavily guarded. Even high-ranked powerhouses can’t sneak in. How can the demons blow up sang Bo? Where does the gunpowder come from?
[ three: the Imperial court has already investigated this matter. A saltpeter mine was found on the great Yellow Mountain in Taikang County, but it has been completely mined. The miners were the demons. ‘Number one, your information channels aren’t good enough.’ [ in addition, we’ve also found out about the demonic disc. It’s the Golden Guard’s Centurion, Zhou chixiong, but he’s on the run with his family. ]
[ one: then this lead is cut off. ]
[ three: heh, that might not be the case. Soon, the Imperial court will definitely issue an arrest warrant. Zhou chixiong will either leave great Feng or hide in a safe place. Where do you think he will hide? ]
Number two was the first to answer, [ that goes without saying. It’s definitely Yunzhou. ]
No one in the nether world Book, Heaven and Earth Society, knew the situation in Yunzhou better than she did.
At this point, Xu Qi ‘an had achieved his goal. He wanted to use this opportunity to start a conversation and ask number two to help him keep an eye on Yunzhou and see if he could catch Centurion Zhou.
But according to his character, he shouldn’t be so concerned about a fugitive. Was it because he loved his country? This reason was too perfunctory.
[ number one: number two, you have quite a bit of power in Yunzhou. Can you help me keep an eye on Zhou chixiong? ]
Well done … Xu Qi ‘an was excited.
In number one’s mind, number two seemed to be more reliable than the government?
[ 2: I refuse to help you. ]
[ 1. I will provide remuneration. ]
[ 2: no, I refuse to help you! ]
Number one stopped talking, and the earth Book group fell into a short silence.
Number one and number two did not seem to be on good terms … The others didn’t try to persuade him … Is it because they had a conflict or grudge before I joined?
Uh … This won’t do, if number two doesn’t help, Yunzhou is so big, how can we find Zhou chixiong?
I should step in. This way, I can sell number one a favor and also collect the ‘debt’ from number two.
It was a huge profit!
Xu Qi ‘an entered the message, [ No. 2, help me keep an eye on Zhou chixiong. Just take it as paying off my debt from last time. ] As for number one, I’m sorry, but you owe me another favor. [ what do the two of you think? ]
