Chapter 1125 The Shocked Xiaoyao Sect
In the past, he was forced to be cautious when facing Tiangong and Bejia; but he would not let go of any opportunity that passed by him.
He told no one about this, not even Jing Jing or Dong Rui knew about it.
At this time, Jin Bai took out King Fan's official letter from his arms and tore it open. The officer who searched for the bodies of the Shadowfang Guards at that time was illiterate and thought they would end up in a mass grave anyway, so he didn't bother to take away the letter.
Several pairs of eyes came over to read the letter together.
Although the content above has been modified, and the wording is official, gorgeous and euphemistic, the core meaning is still the same:
Bright lamp, don’t give it!
It's about King Wei's bloodline, and he won't hand over Ming Dengzhan easily.
Jin Bai read it in a few seconds, and then thought of the fallen Shadowfang Guards, and couldn't help but sneer.
He Lingchuan said: "King Wei took out this letter, which means that when we entered the palace, he had not yet had the intention to kill."
It shows that the accidental killing of Shadow Yawei by Yu Wei was really an unexpected incident. Otherwise, King Wei would have said "no" and it would have been over. Why bother?
Dong Rui asked: "The troublemaker can put Mai Liansheng's things into the Yingya Guard's guest room, and then lead the officials and Yu Wei to arrest him?"
"It's possible." He Lingchuan raised the water bag and took a sip of water, "But there is another possibility: these people lurked among the Yu Guards or official officials, and when they rushed into the Rulin Inn to capture the Shadow Fang Guards, they were framed. "
"These people?" Dong Rui suddenly asked, "You mean, they commit crimes in a gang?"
"If you want to go against the king, how can you do it alone?" Even when He Lingchuan made trouble in the Heavenly Palace, he had to rely on the power of Aunt Zhu, Dong Rui, Fang Canran and others, directly and indirectly. "Dare to do this, which shows that they are familiar with Yu Wei and Nangong Yan's style."
Dong Rui laughed: "I'm afraid everyone knows their style, right?"
If your style and characteristics are too distinctive, you will be easily taken advantage of.
Jin Bo gritted his teeth: "When I find this person, I will cut him into pieces!"
Seeing the fierce look in his eyes, Dong Rui broke into a cold sweat for Cao Yanhua.
King Wei accused Elder Cao of stealing the treasure, but the matter has not yet been investigated.
Jin Bo sneered: "Perhaps it was King Fan who did it. He wanted to kill us all because of his guilty conscience!"
Dong Rui and He Lingchuan looked at each other and shrugged. Jin Bai was filled with anger and hatred, but it was still possible to say it out loud.
He Lingchuan seemed to mention it casually: "The causes of these accidents are all bright lights. Commander Jin, do you know the purpose of your country's collection of this tribute?"
This is the information he really wants to find out!
Jin Bai was still angry and replied without much thought: "This is a secret. The emperor has never told me."
As a subordinate, he only follows orders and doesn't talk too much.
He Lingchuan asked him again: "How do you expect Emperor Mou to decide on this matter?"
"I can't make any assumptions, but I think the emperor will not let a small country bully him!"
When the two countries are at war, the envoys will not be killed. But King Wei even wanted to kill the special envoy of Mou State!
That is too disrespectful of Mou Guo.
The three of them walked in silence for a long time before Jin Bo's mood gradually calmed down.
"Go to Xiaoyao Sect first, and then I will spread the news of what Fan Guo has done to the imperial capital!"
At this time, even if King Wei held the heart lamp in front of Jin Bai with both hands, he would not give up.
Blood debt must be paid with blood!
Perhaps Mou Guo wouldn't do it either.
He Lingchuan glanced back at the country of Fan and knew that the direction of this matter was finally going to fulfill some people's wishes.
…
Xiaoyao Sect is located in the northeast of Fan State and borders it.
Its area is less than half that of Rongshan Mountain, and most of it is mountainous. Two mountain ranges meet here, and the highest peak is called Baimaofeng, which is the habitat of the light grass.
Xiaoyao Sect has too little flat land and does not produce much food, but it is a natural treasure house of medicinal herbs.
Upon hearing Jin Bai's arrival, Head Li personally welcomed everyone into the mountain gate.
The Xiaoyao Sect stands on the hillside. Today it is covered with clouds and fog, and it really looks like an immortal.
The back mountain is Baimaofeng. He Lingchuan walked with him and often encountered guards patrolling the mountain.
This is because the Golden Gold Plains are not peaceful, and thieves often sneak in to steal medicine.
Head Li looked shocked when he heard Jin Bai explain his intention.
"The Ming Deng Zhan is approaching maturity, and the whole sect feels as if it is facing a formidable enemy, fearing that something unexpected will happen. Elder Cao and I have to go up the mountain to patrol many times a day. After Commander Jin successfully takes away the Ming Deng Zhan, we are all in a state of relief. The tone." Head Li's brows almost knitted together, "I didn't expect something to go wrong like this, let alone that King Wei actually accused Elder Cao of being a traitor. It's incredible!"
"how?"
Head Li sighed, "In the five days after Commander Jin took away the lamp, Elder Cao happened to have a class to explain the cultivation of herbal medicine to his disciples. How could he have time to go out?"
"In those days, Elder Cao never left the Xiaoyao Sect?"
"He also came to me to discuss some sect affairs. The disciples have also seen him." Head Li spread his hands, "Unless Elder Cao really has the cloning technique, and the clone can be hundreds of miles away from the main body, otherwise let He rushed to Julu Port to steal the tribute from Commander Jin, and then returned to Xuncheng to sell it to King Wei. This trip would take at least three or four days. "
He Lingchuan interrupted: "But in the past three or four days, Master Li and his disciples have met Elder Cao?"
"Exactly."
Jin Bai and He Lingchuan looked at each other, and things were getting weirder.
Soon after receiving the news, Elder Cao hurried over.
This man was slightly fat, but his legs and feet were very nimble. When he saw Leader Li and Commander Jin, he had no time to salute and shouted directly:
"It's absolutely not the case. It's absolutely not the case. How dare people accuse me falsely!"
Jin Bai of course recognized him: "Why don't they accuse others, but you?"
Cao Yanhua opened his mouth in the wind, and was speechless for a while.
Yes, why did the King of Biao only accuse him?
He Lingchuan suddenly said: "Does Elder Cao recognize the King of Biao?"
Cao Yanhua was stunned and shook his head: "No, no, we have never had any contact!"
Jin Bai continued: "The envoy of Biao said that he was rejected by Master Li and was about to leave, and Elder Cao caught up from behind and proposed a deal with him."
Cao Yanhua was so angry that his face flushed: "Absolutely not! How dare they slander me!"
It was He Lingchuan who spoke again: "How long has Elder Cao been in the sect?"
Cao Yanhua didn't think twice: "Thirty-nine years!"
Master Li introduced: "Elder Cao joined the sect at the age of three. He practiced martial arts in Xiaoyao Sect for the first half of his life. He usually teaches disciples full-time and rarely goes down the mountain."
The income of the Taoist sect must include at least two parts, one from the territory and the other from the apprentices.
Needless to say, the territory, such as Xiaoyao Sect and Rongshan, has its own territory, and normal operation will bring income, just like the country and the city; another important income is to accept disciples.
High-ranking officials usually let their children worship in famous families. It is best if they can achieve the right result. If they can't, they can mix in the circle and accumulate connections, so this money must not be saved.
Elders like Cao Yanhua, if they don't go down the mountain to operate, they will teach on the mountain.
