Heavenly Genius

Chapter 135 Changed Your Mind Again?

Leaning over, he lifted the jug of wine and put it on the counter. The clerk waved his hand to call another clerk in the hall to come over, and told him to deliver the wine to the designated guest room.

Bai Yulou turned around and walked out of the inn slowly, standing on the steps outside the inn, looking up at the vast starry sky with his hands behind his back, his mind was uncertain.

The people from Xuanyuan Dao and the people from Liuxianzong kept in touch with each other frequently. Xuanyuan Dao himself began to exert his strength in secret. Even he, a bystander, was involved.

The night sky is full of stars twinkling, the lights of the ancient city are dim and beautiful, and the mountains are high and the night is cold.

In this quiet night, in his heart, under the tranquility, the clouds and waves are treacherous...

"Shanhu County?"

Inside the shop of Liuxianzong, after hearing Cui Yuan's report, Gao Sucong, the shopkeeper, frowned and muttered, then turned his head and said to Huang Enping, "Take a look at the map."

Huang Enping entered, and soon took a map, spread it out on the counter, and three moon butterflies with vertical wings perched on the silk thread above, illuminating the area below without needing to use additional lights for lighting.

The three of them searched around the picture for a while, Cui Yuan pointed to a place and said, "Here, Master, Shanhu County is here."

The three of them focused their eyes on the same place. Huang Enping stroked his chin and pondered: "Meet here... This guy ran from Jinzhou to Zhaixing City, and now he is going to Shanhu County. Where is he going?"

Gao Sucong moved the map, looked all the way in the southeast direction, seemed to understand something, pointed at Shanhu County and said: "Yes, there is no mistake, unless he walks in a straight line on foot, or takes a long detour, if he returns to Jinzhou or Canglu County, he cannot avoid Shanhu County, and he must pass through this place when returning by riding."

The two took a look at the route as he said, and suddenly realized, Cui Yuan said: "It seems that they are here to pick up the Star City to buy things. After walking around, they still have to go back to Shang Chaozong."

Huang Enping snorted coldly and said: "Shang Chaozong's so-called severing ties with him can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye. It is nothing more than superficially getting rid of responsibility, so as not to fall into the truth. It is not surprising that he continues to hook up with Shang Chaozong." Looking up at Gao Sucong, "Uncle, you can't let him hide back with Shang Chaozong, otherwise, with the protection of Tianyumen, it will be difficult to start again."

In fact, the people of Liuxianzong knew that Liu Ziyu and others said that they died at the hands of Niu Youdao, but the real killer was Bai Yao and others from Tianyumen.

Cui Yuan: "The key now is that he will let Hei Mudan and others go first. The spies we have placed beside him can't know his specific whereabouts. No one knows when he will leave. It is possible to sneak away tonight..." Pointing to Shanhu County, "We can only wait here for him to fall into the net."

Gao Sucong stared at the map and sighed: "Let's just run once. In short, we can't let him run away anymore. If we let him run away when it's just him and the bear demon, the teacher has no way to explain to the Song family, and we have no face to explain to the teacher."

He raised his finger and pointed at the two of them, "You two, one sits in the store and maintains internal and external communication, and the other continues to go back to the inn to watch. If there is any change, I will notify you in time. I will take the other four people to Shanhu County in person. This time, we must solve this problem."

Huang Enping hurriedly said: "How can a mere Niu Youdao let the uncle run errands in person, let us solve it."

Gao Sucong shook his head and said: "There's no such thing as running errands, let him run away again, Liuxianzong can't afford to lose that person, if it's not that the division is too far away, and it's too late to dispatch people, I will definitely ask the division to send more people to help, to ensure nothing goes wrong. So this time, I will not only go out personally, but also find the people from Lingxiu Mountain and Fuyunzong to attack together.

The two of them looked at each other, Lingxiu Mountain and Fuyunzong were also considered to be the forces of the Song family, and the relationship between the three factions was not usually good, and there was even competition. But then again, Lingxiu Mountain and Fuyunzong must not dare not do their best in this kind of matter. Although Song Jiuming has stepped down, there is news that Da Sikong Tongmo will still call him frequently. This shows that Song Jiuming may come back at any time, and no one dares to despise him.

This time the master uncle actually wanted to ask people from these two factions to assist, it really wasn't the usual attention, which made the two of them feel like making a fuss out of a molehill.

Now that Gao Sucong has already spoken to this point, the two of them can only follow orders.

Gao Sucong wrote a secret report, asked someone to capture another golden wing, and sent another message to Liuxianzong to report the situation.

Then Gao Sucong got up with four disciples and set off overnight. As Cui Yuan said, he didn't know when Niu Youdao would leave. It was possible to sneak away tonight. They had to arrive in Shanhu County in advance to make arrangements.

They carried two golden wings with them, quietly left the shop through the back door, and then went straight to the shops of Lingxiu Mountain and Fuyunzong, and quickly gathered ten or twenty people to leave Star Picking City...

Beside the lamp, Niu Youdao was still holding the sword.

Yuan Fang didn't know what Niu Youdao was doing, holding a sword in his arms and wiping it repeatedly for so long, he felt that Niu Youdao's calmness was a bit outrageous, and it was the first time he saw Niu Youdao in such a state.

There was a knock on the door, and Yuan Fang got up to check the situation.

"Guest officer, your wine."

"Wine? We don't want wine!"

Niu Youdao, holding the sword to wipe it, said lightly, "I want it."

So the movement at the door stopped, and the sound of closing the door, Yuan Fang walked over with a wine jar, put it beside Niu Youdao, and asked strangely: "Master Dao wants to drink?"

Niu Youdao said calmly, "I'll give you something to drink."

"Hehe, Daoist, don't make fun of me, you know I don't drink, I usually just pretend to hide my identity."

"You goblin is so boring, you don't drink wine, you don't eat meat, if you don't drink, just leave it here."

Niu Youdao said indifferently, and at this moment, his eyes fixed on the sword body moved to the wine jar, and a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes.

The light of the sword in his hand flashed, he sheathed it with a swipe, he threw the sword aside, swung his sleeves and swept out a gust of wind, turned off the lights, and said in the dark, "Rest early."

They were joking just now, but they suddenly fell into darkness, and Yuan Fang was speechless.

The time he spent with Niu Youdao was still too short...

The next morning, several people met in the inn for breakfast, and then went back to their rooms.

After a while, Hei Mudan and others who were ready came to Niu Youdao's side, knocked on the door, and said goodbye first.

"Master Dao, let's go ahead and wait for you in Shanhu County." Hei Mudan and others bid farewell together.

Niu Youdao, who was standing with his back to the window, turned around slowly, with his sword in front of him, he said to Yuan Fang: "Pack up your things, let's check out too, let's go together."

"..." Hei Mudan and the others were stunned, they thought they hadn't left when they had breakfast together just now, why did they change their mind now?

Changed your mind again? Yuan Fang was puzzled and said: "Master Dao, don't we have to stay for a few more days?" He asked other people's doubts.

Niu Youdao: "I thought about it, it seems that there is no need to be so troublesome, as long as you leave this place secretly, there shouldn't be any major problems, everyone can take care of each other on the road together."

Several people looked at each other, and Lei Zongkang asked, "Master Dao, do we still need to go to Shanhu County?"

Niu Youdao: "It's not necessary to meet, but we still have to go through Shanhu County." He waved his hand to signal Yuan Fang to pack up quickly.

Yuan Fang said oh, in fact, there is nothing to pack, so he packed the package and carried it on his back, and it was over.

Several people left the guest room, went downstairs and went straight to the inn lobby to check out.

Cui Yuan, who was sitting in the garden drinking tea slowly, noticed them. Drinking tea was superficial, and surveillance was real. After seeing Yuan Fang also carrying a package, he was stunned.

His eyes quickly fixed on Lei Zongkang, and Lei Zongkang's eyes were intertwined with his. There were people around him, and it was difficult to convey any obvious news, so he gave him a wink that he didn't know if he could understand.

When he came to the lobby, Yuan Fang naturally took out the receipt of 1,800 yuan. If you want to refund more, you should pay less. For a rich man like him, it is impossible to throw away the money.

Bai Yulou, who was sitting behind the counter, stood up and motioned for the waiter beside him without handling it himself.

After the settlement was clear, the clerk asked, "Should I follow the open path or the secret path?"

Black Peony said: "Secret way!"

The guy immediately called someone to lead the way and see him off.

Bai Yulou cupped his hands and said to the group: "Ladies and gentlemen, go slowly!" Their eyes met Niu Youdao's, and the two of them did not see anything unusual on the surface.

A clerk led the crowd away from the side hall, entered a closed corridor, and finally entered a mountainside, and descended the steps.

After walking for such a long distance, I heard the faint sound of rushing water.

Goodbye to the sky, everyone has already appeared at the exit of a cliff cave at the bottom of a cliff. In front of them is a rushing river, which happens to be the intersection of two rivers, and the water mist is stirring. It is said that there are people from Star Picking City guarding the surrounding area to prevent anyone from sneaking in through it. At least at this exit, everyone saw a monk sitting cross-legged in meditation, sitting cross-legged on a stone platform on one side.

After negotiating with the monk, the guy officially let him go.

Niu Youdao pointed to the downstream, signaling to go downstream. Several people nodded, cast spells on their bodies, and jumped into the turbulent river together, disappearing in it.

As soon as they entered the water, their bodies quickly followed the current as if they were wrapped in air bubbles.

From now on, the few people are considered to be out of the protection of Yaoyue Inn, and if anything happens, Yaoyue Inn will not be responsible.

However, under normal circumstances, the possibility of accidents along this river is very small.

The water flow in this canyon channel is very fast. If you hide in the rapids for a long time and make piles to forcibly resist the erosion of the rapids, not many people can bear it. If you are farther away in this water, your vision will be affected, and there are many monks coming and going in this river. It is easy to be misunderstood if you intercept it at will. Unless you find out the specific time to leave the inn, the ambush may be successful. Coupled with the upstream and downstream tributaries, it is difficult to figure out which route to take, making the ambush more difficult.

The large and small tributaries of the river basin are also long, and it is not easy to figure out where people go ashore. Once they go ashore, it is very convenient to sneak away with the help of the vertical and horizontal ravines that exist everywhere in the mountains, and it is indeed not easy to be discovered.

If you don't know the specific situation and don't have a lot of manpower to set up a net, it will be difficult to catch anyone here. This is one of the important reasons why the Star City can become a gathering place for monks from all over the world.
