"Okay, let's not talk about this matter for the time being. Besides, Tang has one more thing he wants to discuss with the noble family." Tangning didn't want to make a fuss here, so she put this matter aside for the time being.

"Several fellow daoists know that the rebel army occupied Xuantang City before and destroyed the resources under the headquarters' jurisdiction. Although the seeds of various spiritual vein herbs have been re-sowed now, it will take a long time to wait until they mature, and The medicinal herbs in the various spiritual veins of the noble sect have not been damaged and are growing normally."

"The headquarters hopes that your sect can sell some of them to us. I wonder if it is possible?"

Du Yuanhai pondered and said: "All the spiritual veins and elixir planted by our sect are purchased by the Qianxuan Chamber of Commerce. The two parties have signed a contract. Our sect cannot unilaterally decide this matter, otherwise we will have to pay high-priced breach of contract fees. Go! Fellow Daoist Tang, please let your ministry and the Qianxuan Chamber of Commerce say hello first, if they agree, our sect will naturally have no problem."

Tang Ning sneered and said, "Fellow Daoist Du used the Qianxuan Chamber of Commerce to prevaricate me! As far as I know, the Guizong used to do business with the Canglang Sect in the business of elixir. Went to Qianxuan Chamber of Commerce and signed a contract with them?"

"That's true. If Fellow Daoist Tang doesn't believe it, our sect can now find out the contract signed with the Qianxuan Chamber of Commerce and show it to Fellow Daoist."

"If that's the case, let's forget about it and pretend I haven't been here today, everyone, please leave." Tangning got up expressionlessly and said.

"I'll send off fellow Taoist Tang." Du Yuanhai got up one after another, and several people filed out of the hall.

"Fellow Daoist Tang, I'm really sorry. Our sect really can't be the master of the elixir. Let us discuss the business route." Outside the light curtain, Du Yuanhai said apologetically.

"Forget it, since the noble sect is unwilling, we can't force others to make things difficult for us. Let's leave." Tangning replied perfunctorily, and fled away.

Seeing his disappearance, Du Yuanhai's complexion gradually turned gloomy and sank.

"Hmph, this Tangning, last time I came to our sect to beat the autumn wind and took the spirit stones to pay taxes. Today, I want to take advantage of it again. I really treat this sect as a persimmon they knead at will." Yuan Yi Diandian advocated Yang's expression was unhappy , snorted coldly.

Xu Chang, the owner of Qingxuan Palace, frowned slightly: "Looking at this person's behavior, he can be described as arrogant and cruel. Last time, because Jingyuezong refused to exchange business routes with them, Tangning led people to blatantly seal off his business routes. , Fang Liang, the head of Jingyue Sect, was seriously injured and vomited blood, and he is still recuperating in bed. I am worried that we have offended him this time, and he will take action against this sect soon."

Zhang Yang said angrily, "Nowadays it's really lawless. Tangning blatantly hurt Jingyue Sect Master, but no one is going to investigate, and let him do his best. It's really abominable."

"Now the situation has changed drastically. Donglai County is no longer what it used to be. Taixuanzong's family dominates. Since Jingyuezong surrendered, they have been very docile and low-key. Without the power to check and balance, they are not Lawless?"

"Warning all departments, especially the disciples outside, let them be careful not to provoke Taixuanzong, even if they provoke you, you must endure it and don't act rashly."

The three turned around and entered the formation, Du Yuanhai said.

The two nodded and said yes.

Fengji Mountain, where the fourth brigade was stationed, in the majestic cave, Tang Ning and Xu Yuan exchanged greetings and divided their seats.

"Liuyunzong won't eat the toast, it's time to show them something." Tangning briefly told the story.

"What's the order of Deputy Team Tang?" Xu Yuan is an old man in the alliance. As a newcomer, he is ashamed of being called a senior and has always been called the deputy team.

"I want the disciples of the fourth brigade to have some friction with them first, and then intervene to force Liuyunzong to agree to our terms."

"I understand, come here." Xu Yuan called out, and a disciple from the outside pushed the door in and bowed to salute: "Master, what do you want me to tell you?"

"Call Xu Xing here."

"Yes." The disciple went away in response.

Not long after, a tall and handsome man entered from the outside. It was Xu Xing, the deputy captain of the Fourth Brigade.

"Disciple pays respects to Uncle Tang." Xu Xing bowed and saluted. As Xu Yuan's grandson, grandparents and grandchildren naturally wouldn't see each other that way, so he only saluted Tangning.

"Xing'er, Vice-Team Tang is here, and there is a task that needs to be completed by the headquarters, so I will leave it to you to take full responsibility for it!" Xu Yuan said.

"Yes, Master Tang, please tell me."

"Liuyunzong is a little disobedient and needs to be beaten and beaten. You go to create a little trouble for them, but don't make too much noise. You can handle it yourself. In short, I need an excuse to intervene and give them some color."

"The disciple knows, the disciple will do it immediately."

"Senior Brother Xu, I'll take my leave first. Xu Xing, if there's any progress, you can just go to the Tianniu Mountains and report to me. You don't need to trouble Senior Brother Xu."

"Yes."

Tangning left the fourth team and returned to the Tianniu Mountains without mentioning it.

……

In Yuanxian County, Youminghai Branch, Xu Wenruo and Xue Jing were sitting opposite each other in a dark room.

"That's how it happened. Ma Shouyang disappeared. Combined with multiple clues, I suspect that there are high-level officials in the Yuanxian County branch involved in the corruption of Xuantang City."

After Xu Wenruo listened, he pondered for a while and said, "If Ma Shouyang killed Wei Ting as you speculated, do you think he would not guard against the people behind the scenes and kill him to silence him?"

Xue Jingdao: "So the people behind the scenes carefully planned and designed this so-called trap left by the Qianjiazong's materials. Ma Shouyang must not have known about it. He became greedy and wanted to secretly take away the materials left by the Qianjiazong, so he fell behind the scenes in the trap of a man."

"Ma Shouyang's cultivation is not weak, and we didn't find any traces of fighting near Yueming Lake, and the witness monk who passed by that day said that there was a tear in space hundreds of feet long around Yueming Lake. Therefore, we deduce that it is Lian Brother Xu made a move and killed him in Yueming Lake."

Xu Wenruo said: "How can the people behind the scenes be sure that Ma Shouyang will sneak out of Haimang Mountain? If Ma Shouyang can't be greedy, then wouldn't all his hard work be in vain? Once he is found out, both sides will suffer."

"Besides, Xuantang City is Ma Shouyang's territory. It is not easy to carefully plan a flawless drama and hide it from Ma Shouyang."

"Just now you said that Ma Shouyang acts more cautiously. How could he commit crimes against the wind when the surveillance team is investigating the corruption case?"

Xue Jing said: "Then what do you think is going on?"

"I'm not sure. There may be key clues that we have missed, so there are obvious logical loopholes in various inferences. I think we still have to break through from the inside of Xuantang City. If it is as you guessed, Ma Shouyang was arrested by the senior management of the headquarters. harm, then there must be someone inside Xuantang City cooperating with this behind-the-scenes helmsman."

"Yeah." Xue Jingjing nodded: "Okay, I will continue to investigate other corruption matters in Xuantang City. We already have several clues."

"I'll check later on who has left the headquarters during this period of time. Leave the matter here to me. If there is any news, I will pass it on to you. Xuantang City will focus on investigating Ding Jianyang and Wu Chong. As the person in charge of commercial affairs, Ting has been reselling elixir for so many years. Would Ding Jianyang, who is in charge of finance, and Wu Chong, who is in charge of commerce, have not noticed at all? I think there is something wrong with these two people."

"Okay, I see."

……

In a blink of an eye, more than ten days passed in the blink of an eye. In Xuantangli City, in front of the majestic attic, more than a dozen monks were arguing fiercely. One side was dressed in Taixuanzong costumes, and the other was dressed in Liuyunzong costumes. They were divided into two groups. Faint confrontation.

"The slaves of the three surnames of the Liuyun Sect dare to bark and speak wildly here. It is not because of our pity that we would have uprooted your sect long ago." A disciple dressed in Taixuanzong's costume said loudly.

Liuyunzong's disciples all blushed, dared to be angry but did not dare to speak, one of them couldn't help but refute: "What's so great about Taixuanzong, he only bullies the weak, a few big men bully a weak woman in this sect, Don't you have any shame on your face?"

"Forget it, Junior Brother Yan, don't argue with them, let's go." Another Liuyun Sect disciple stepped forward and pulled him away.

The disciple of Taixuanzong winked at this side, another person suddenly rose up and punched the man.

Everyone on Liuyunzong's side was unprepared, they didn't expect him to attack suddenly in broad daylight within the jurisdiction of Lishi.

"Be careful."

"Be careful, Senior Brother Yan."

With a few shouts, the man flew out, spurting out a mouthful of blood.

"You dare to hurt people with your hands." Several people on Liuyunzong's side were furious.

"Don't do it, don't do it, calm down." The man headed by Liu Yunzong hurriedly shouted, but the situation was out of control.

A Liuyunzong monk turned around and attacked the Taixuanzong disciple who was hurting someone. Soon, such a movement attracted the guards of the chamber of commerce in charge of Lishi.

After Xu Xing reported the matter, Tangning immediately led two teams directly under him and set off to Xuantangli City, where they smashed down the shop that Liuyunzong belonged to.
