Please ask the dream.

Chapter 632 Familiar Stranger
"You seem to know I'm coming?"

Pushing open the seemingly simple door, Feng Xue sniffed the fragrance of tea, looked at the man sitting beside the small red clay stove in the house, slowly brewing tea, and raised his brows slightly.

"I'd rather you didn't come." The man didn't look up, just raised his eyelids and continued with his hands.

"I heard that nothing in Qingyun can be hidden from your eyes?"

Feng Xue knew that he would definitely not be able to beat the opponent in a tactical attack, so he pulled out a chair next to the table and sat down. Upon hearing his straight shot, the man just pushed a cup of tea towards Feng Xue, picked up another cup and took a sip, then said:
"If I could really see everything, I would have been beaten to death a long time ago. Tell me what you want to know. Sigh, I really don't want to do this unprofitable business of yours..."

"How can you lose money before you even bid?" Feng Xue grinned, but the man waved his hand and said:
"You don't know whether it's a loss or not? Forget it, if you have anything to ask, just say it now!"

Seeing this, Feng Xue's expression straightened up: "Who is behind my old man's affairs?"

A year has passed since he made that boast, but he is becoming more and more confused about the current situation.

Spies were arrested in batches, but each one of them was like a tangled mess that could not be untied or cut. Moreover, whenever they reached a key point, the clues would suddenly break. Although news of someone's misfortune could be heard later, Feng Xue naturally understood that it was just the gecko's tail cutting off.

Feng Xue's strength is getting stronger and stronger, but he is also becoming more and more aware that not everything in this world can be solved by strength. Even if he has the power to kill gods, it is meaningless if he can't even find God.

Therefore, today, near the end of the year, he finally found Qingyun's strongest intelligence dealer through some channels, hoping to get the key to a violent breakthrough from him.

When Feng Xue asked this, the man's hand holding the tea trembled slightly, but he did not give an answer for a long time.

Feng Xue frowned upon seeing this and immediately urged:

"Can't tell? Don't know? Or do you have to pay extra? Why don't you just ask?"

"Don't worry, I'm still counting!" The man rolled his eyes, but Feng Xue was slightly stunned and frowned:
"That joke isn't funny."

"Who told you this is a joke? If you ask me who didn't participate, I might be able to answer you faster." The man retorted unhappily, but Feng Xue remained silent for a long while before saying:
"Are you serious?"

"I never lie."

"..."

There was another silence, but the man could no longer sit still and frowned:

"Are you still not leaving? Do you really want me to write a list for you? I'm going to die too! Don't blame me for not reminding you, now is the best time to go back to Suqin. If you miss it, ha..."

"Thank you." Feng Xue took out a card and put it on the table. He turned around and was about to leave, but heard the person behind him repeat:
"Remember to go back quickly!"

"Just say it once!"

……

"Interesting!" Returning to the node selection interface, Feng Xue recalled the intelligence he had obtained before with interest. If nothing unexpected happened, this intelligence dealer was the "Peeper" he had seen once before in the exploration.

"But I always feel that I'm a bit stupid this time! Haven't you realized that the old man is the third-generation creator?" Feng Xue was speechless about himself this time, but there was nothing he could do. In order to experience the power of the Yellow King, he used "Jinchūriki" as the outer packaging of the golden finger, but this also directly distorted his understanding of the ability system, and even his subsequent understanding of architecture. However, for an architect, this kind of world cognition that belongs only to him is not a bad thing. It is precisely because of his special worldview that he can develop those strange architectures that use the Yellow King's code.

After thinking about what he had gained from this exploration, Feng Xue resisted the urge to directly enter the cheat code - "There are still a few nodes left. Let me explore them myself. If I still can't find anything by the end, it won't be too late for me to take over then."

Although he said so, Feng Xue always felt that he was a little unreliable this time, so he returned to reality and added two more codes to the mask, opening up the inspiration of the domineering style, just to give another self a bond with the three major comics.

……

"I'm back again!" Looking at the trees outside the station with only bare branches left, Feng Xue couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

Unlike last year when he brought home a few bottles of good wine, this time he brought back a bunch of documents. It was a long list that affected almost two-thirds of the senior management of Qingyun.

In fact, the reason why he went to find the Peeping Man was precisely because the list was so wide-ranging that he even had some doubts as to whether the mastermind behind the scenes had discovered that he was investigating and deliberately threw out misleading items for him.

But judging from the answers given by the peepers, this does not seem to be the case, or in other words, even this list cannot be said to be complete.

"The officialdom of Suqin... If they kill everyone, I don't know if there are any innocent people, but if they kill every other person, there will definitely be some who slip through the net."

With a sigh, Feng Xue opened the door, but his brows suddenly frowned because he found that besides the old man, there was someone else's presence in the house!

"You are finally back! Where is my daughter-in-law?"

Before Feng Xue began his investigation, the old man's voice was heard. Feng Xue followed the voice to the living room and saw a young man about his age next to the old man.

Although he had never seen it before, Feng Xue always felt a sense of familiarity for some reason.

"You're back alone again?" Seeing Feng Xue alone again, the old man muttered in disdain, then waved his hand and said:

"Forget it. It's New Year's Day. Come, let me introduce you. This is Xiao Li, and this is my adopted son Xiao Feng. You two can get to know each other more..."

"Oh, you are Mr. Feng. Nice to meet you. My name is Li Zhongping. Please take care of me in the future."

The young man stood up and greeted him politely, but Feng Xue frowned. Although at first glance there seemed to be nothing wrong, Feng Xue found that the G·I particle fluctuations of this guy were very similar to those of the old man.

"Jinchūriki candidate?" This thought immediately emerged in Feng Xue's mind, and his expression turned cold. As if realizing the reason for Feng Xue's change of expression, Li Zhongping's face showed a bit of embarrassment, and the old man glared at Feng Xue and said:

"Why are you looking so grumpy? What good stuff are you holding? Bring it out to me!"

"This is not a good thing." Feng Xue did not refuse, and directly put the list in front of the old man. Li Zhongping took two steps back tactfully. The old man rolled his eyes and sighed:

"You two young people go and have a chat! I need to think about it carefully..."

Feeling that the old man's decrepitude had not changed much, Feng Xue breathed a sigh of relief and then gave Li Zhongping a look.

Li Zhongping seemed to feel guilty about this and followed Feng Xue towards the side hall...
