The sword is the devil

Chapter 625
The floating raft set off again, and this time the danger came and went quickly, and when they recalled it, they couldn't help feeling terrified.

"Has the animosity between the north and the south of the Daoist sect reached this point?" Hou Tiao was curious.

Lan Ruo's eyes turned on his face, "This uncle black is looking for you, brother, don't get confused."

The two watched Hou Tiao skilfully plunder the gangsters, "Three ones add three, one for each, you pick first."

... One day later, the floating raft sailed into Sanjiang Mansion, which is theoretically considered completely safe; although the Anhe Taoist sect has now been divided into two branches, it is far from clear-cut, and these Taoist priests are still in chaos throughout Anhe. Jump up, not their own people can not completely distinguish, the lower the realm, the more blurred, plus there are still many who have not made a final decision.

Hou Niao was arranged by two daughters in a manor, which belonged to the Wen clan, but those Wen clan members who didn't know how to advance or retreat had long since disappeared.

Taoist Ai heard that she was very busy, and that she was the de facto No. 1 in the Three Realms of Tongtian in Bei'an and a series, and there were too many responsibilities on her, so her whereabouts were not sure.

He waited for three days, if it was less than three days, he could only say that he was still missing.

His current identity is still a bit sensitive, and he can be regarded as an extroverted border official in the Yan family system. It is not good to be too unscrupulous in contact with Bei'an and Yimai, so he can only use his private identity.

He was ordered to guard and deal with the affairs of Pingliang Prefecture, not to communicate with the outside world of Anhe Daomen; within his scope of power, he could investigate the fact that the Central Military Government of Pingliang Prefecture colluded with heretics, but there is a limit here that needs to be determined by oneself.

On the third day, his last day in Sanjiang Mansion, he stood alone on the Wangyuan Tower in the city, expressing his condolences.

As he was staring into the distance, a familiar voice came from behind him.

"I heard that you were almost killed by the leader of the underworld of the Wu family? Did you also implicate my two closest disciples?"

Hou Tiao turned her head and smiled, "As an old friend, wouldn't it be more polite for the fairy to take off her veil?"

Taoist Ai snorted and took off her veil. She always felt uncomfortable in front of this guy, an inexplicable feeling.

"Tell me, what can I do for you?"

"Can't you come to see you if you have nothing to do? Chat, talk, we haven't seen each other for decades, if we delay any longer, we will lose our youth."

Taoist Yao shot him a sideways look, "What does my youth have to do with you?"

Hou Tiao looked at the face in front of her, which was both happy and angry, and there was no change due to the change of time. She sighed in her heart that there was still a change, which was the residue in the depths of her eyes after the precipitation of years and experiences.

"There are two things that make me have to come and see you."

Hou Tiao was very serious, "One is what you promised me, about the truth about Taoist Chong Ling's murder, I think I have the ability to know the truth now, you can't let me guess by myself, if I guess wrong, it will be very troublesome.

One more thing, regarding Nan'an and or Wumen's business dealings in Pingliang Prefecture, especially the Geng Concentrate Mine, I was ordered to rectify the cultivation order in Pingliang Prefecture. This is an unavoidable hurdle, and I just want to hear your opinion . "

Taoist Yao glanced at him, "You are really stubborn, it is inappropriate to entrust this kind of thing to outsiders..."

"I'm not an outsider! I'm also from Anhe, and Daoist Chong Ling promised me that he would pick me up one day."

Taoist Yao was speechless, "You are justifying yourself, it is a nonsense, you were asked to come back earlier and you didn't come back, and now you are using this as an excuse, do you think I am stupid?"

Hou Tiao smiled lightly, "This is not a joke, and Taoist Chongling not only promised me, but also others."

Ai Taoist looked suspicious, "Who is it? Dare to make such a promise?"

Hou Tiao smiled without answering, just raised a finger and pointed upwards, Taoist Ai was a little helpless,

"Well, I hope you're not talking nonsense!"

A carved boat floats across the river, the boatman is silently pointing the pole, and the singer sings softly. It is the most common sightseeing boat in Sanjiang Mansion, and it is the favorite of literati. But the time is not right now, it is still early, and the boat looks empty. .

Yao Taoist leaped lightly and was already standing on the bow of the boat, followed by Hou Tiao.

The surface of the water is like a mirror, the god of wind stands tall, and the two god-like figures make the boatman dare not speak too much; but a place like Sanjiang Mansion is used to seeing people who practice cultivation, so it is not surprising.

"...Chongling Daoist's difficulty, among them are three most important people, two are Wo Anhe Taoist, one is Wumen Shangxiu, and now they are all in the Jindan realm, living in secluded places, you need double the number of people to find them Be careful……"

Hou Tiao smiled, "Don't worry, this kind of thing is fun when you take it slow, just like hunting, let them run and struggle desperately, and I will follow behind..."

Taoist Yao sighed, "You, you are no longer the original you after all these years in the Yanmen."

Hou Tiao shook his head, "No, I have always been like this, and I have never changed. It is like this in Yanmen, and it will be no different if I stay in Anhe Daomen."

"We know something about the Wumen's control of the Geng Concentrate Mine through the Chamber of Commerce, and it has a direct relationship with Nan'anhe. In fact, many casual practitioners in the Zhongjun Mansion of Pingliang Prefecture have more or less connections with Nan'anhe. Relationship, I will tell you everything I know, and I hope you can coordinate with us, after all, we also need such a business line..."

The carved boat slowly passed by the river, and the two had an in-depth communication on the information they had with each other; as the most potential cultivator of the Heaven-reaching Realm in Bei'anhe's lineage, Taoist Taoist himself also intervened in a lot of Anhe's upper class The same is true for Hou Tiao, who guards one side, he is now on the same level as Taoist Ai in terms of status, no difference.

"Are you going to do it soon? Is it too hasty?"

Hou Tiao never hides from her, both public and private, this woman is his most trusted person. "I'll take another look for the time being. The key is not the lackeys of the Zhongjun Mansion, who eat inside and out, but the Langzhong natives in the Mushuai Mansion. This is what bothers me the most, so I need to be careful..."

Taoist Yao understood what he meant, "Knock the mountain to shake the tiger? Kill the chicken to scare the monkey? It's not bad. You can't offend all of them."

After thinking about it, I still explain a little bit, "Although the situation of Anhe Daomen is divided into north and south, it is still unclear. No matter which side is doing its best to control the risk of civil war, so the differences will remain for the time being. Conceptually, because of this, it is difficult for us to give practical help when you do it."

Hou Tiao nodded, "I understand, I am also from Anhe, and I don't want Anhe to become a mess in the country. I hope that at some point in the future, some kind of external influence can be used to promote reconciliation between the two parties, or there may be a relationship between the Yanmen and the Wumen." clear result."

Taoist Ai apologized a little, but from the point of view of everyone being Anhe, these scruples are not too much.
