Chapter 1436 Pounce
  Xiaoyaozi stroked his beard and nodded, "In this case, the day when the mirage goes out to sea is indeed the time when Ying Zheng arrives at Songhai."

Gao Jianli answered in a deep voice, "It's also the time for Qinglong to activate!"

Xiaoyaozi nodded slightly, "It seems that the Qinglong Project is imminent and must enter the implementation stage."

Master Ben nodded and said with a sad look on his face, "Yes, this is also the reason why the old man and I are eager to inform Mr. Xiaoyao that you are here for an interview."

"After all, things don't seem to be peaceful at the farmhouse these days. I'm afraid...it's going to be a lot of trouble."

When Master Ban mentioned the farmhouse, Xiaoyaozi also looked unhappy and sighed softly:
  "Ever since Xia Kui Tian Guang disappeared, the farmhouse has become a piece of disorganized sand. It has become more and more shabby. Alas!"

"This matter really needs long-term consideration."

Then Xiaoyaozi asked, "I wonder what you are going to do next?"

Gao Jianli took over the conversation and replied, "Since we don't have exact information about the time when the mirage will sail, we can't determine the time when Ying Zheng will arrive, so we decided not to rush to Dongjun to deal with the farmers' problems."

Xiaoyaozi pondered for a moment and asked, "Will it delay the critical opportunity?"

"We have also taken this into consideration." Gao Jianli replied, "According to the information provided by Mr. Gai, Imperial Prime Minister Li Si must return to Xianyang before the start of the eastern tour."

"As long as we use his departure as the time benchmark, it shouldn't delay anything major."

Xiaoyaozi nodded in approval, "In this case, it is indeed appropriate."

"Then, the key issue now is to figure out when the mirage will sail."

Big Iron Hammer spread his hands and interjected, "So, when will the mirage set sail?"

Gainie responded, "On this point, perhaps only one person knows the exact time."

"Who is it?" Big Iron Hammer asked carelessly, rubbing his head.

Xiaoyaozi raised his eyebrows and answered for Ge Nie in a tentative tone, "Elder Jin of the Yin Yang family... Mr. Yun Zhong?"

Gai Nie nodded in agreement, "That's right."

"He is the captain of the mirage. He is highly relied upon by Ying Zheng. He is the person with the highest status within the Yin Yang family, second only to the two guardians of the left and right."

"He may know more about the mirage than the two guardians of Moon God and Star Soul."

Taizhi, whose left arm was still wrapped in gauze and placed on his chest, interrupted and asked, "So he is the breakthrough?"

Gai Nie responded after a few breaths of hesitation, "He is the most suitable breakthrough I can think of."

"Other people who may know the time of Mirage's departure are not easy to deal with."

Not to mention Ying Zheng who is far away in Xianyang, but who is there in Songhai City who might know this information?

Gu Xun, Fu Su, Meng Tian, ​​Li Si, Yueshen, Xinghun... maybe Zhao Gao, and finally Yun Zhongjun.

No matter how you look at it, Yun Zhongjun is like the softest persimmon - Fusu Mengtian, Li Si and others may not be strong in themselves, but their protective power is strong!
  Master Ban looked at Xiaoyaozi, "What do you think, Mr. Xiaoyao?"

Xiaoyaozi pondered for a moment and chose to agree with Gai Nie, "Mr. Gai knows more about this, and I have no objection."

"Okay!" Master Ban nodded, "Then let's find a way to get the information about the mirage's departure from Mr. Yun Zhong."

The most important thing has been settled for now.

Xiaoyaozi thought for a moment and asked, "I wonder if you have found any signs of Shushan tribe activities in the city?"

Master Ban was stunned for a moment, then nodded and replied, "I discovered it. Shao Yu was the first to discover it. There is a girl from Shushan pretending to work in Fatty Ding's inn."

Gai Nie interjected, "Their purpose should also be a mirage."

Gao Jianli added, "Judging from this point, they are not hostile to us."

"Tianming Shaoyu has had private contact with the girl from Shushan, but she seems to be somewhat resistant to us and is not willing to communicate and cooperate." Xiaoyaozi pondered for a moment and chose not to explain the relationship between Renzong and Shushan for the time being. Their words say:

"Shushan's specific purpose is different from ours. Since there is no hostility and no willingness to communicate, let's ignore them for now."

Master Ben stroked his beard and nodded, "We think so too."

Bang! Bang! Bang! stare!
  At this time, there was a sudden sharp sound outside the door - someone knocked on the door, and he was very anxious.

Big Hammer quickly went over to open the door, and a Mohist disciple rushed in and shouted to everyone:

"Commanders, it's bad!"

"Letter from outside the city, the stronghold has been raided!"

When everyone heard this, they reacted violently. The big hammer grabbed the disciple who reported the message by the collar and asked:

"What's the specific situation? How are the brothers? Is the loss big?"

Unfortunately, the disciple who reported the message didn't know it either. He just knew that the stronghold had been raided, so he hurried over to deliver the message.

However, among the people present, Gao Jianli and Master Ban looked much more relaxed, and did not appear too anxious. Instead, they looked at the expressions of others with hidden eyes.

It seemed that they both had expected this.

………………

Songhai City, outside an inn.

It was approaching dusk at this time, and the number of pedestrians on the street began to increase.

There is an inn on a relatively busy street, and usually there will be people coming and going at the door at this time.

But today, there was almost no pedestrian at its door, but there were still many people.

A large number of imperial soldiers formed a tight circle around the door of an inn.

Surrounded by many soldiers, Li Si slowly walked out of the carriage, while Cook Ding was standing in front of the closed door of an inn with a forced smile on his face.

Li Si walked to the door and stretched out his hand towards Chef Ding, "Please, Shopkeeper Ding."

Cook Ding nodded and bowed his head and said, "Yes, yes, please, Mr. Xiangguo."

As he spoke, he reluctantly pushed open the door of an inn, and the scene in the hall suddenly came into Li Si's eyes——

I saw a long table in the middle, and a group of people wearing black cloaks sitting in a circle around the long table.

It seemed that Li Si's goal of arresting Xing was achieved, but his face instantly darkened, as dark as if water was dripping from his face.

Because he saw a person sitting at the end of the long table, the only person in the room who was not wearing a cloak.

The national teacher Gu Xun!

Although it was said that Gu Xun was from the empire, Li Si was convinced that it was definitely not a good thing for him to see him in this situation!

Sure enough, when he heard the sound of the door opening, the cloaked man sitting at the head of the long table with his back to Li Si stood up and turned around to face Li Si.

When others saw this, they also stood up and looked at Li Si.

Li Si caught a glimpse of the long gray beard that was faintly visible under the hood of the cloaked man at the head. His eyes narrowed, he had a guess in his mind, and his face became even more ugly.

At this time, the man reached out and lifted the hood covering his head, revealing his true appearance - the little sage Xianzhuang, the great scholar Xun Kuang!
  Li Siduo finally met his teacher here unexpectedly, after he had been begging to meet him but failed.
