lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapters of the sealing knife!

Ye Fusheng dressed like Chu Xiwei, with Baiguimen's confidant Erniang by his side, leading a group of people down the cliff and dangerous road quietly down the mountain, sneaking all the way, without disturbing any eyes. , Finally arrived at Garan City as soon as possible.

Ye Fusheng understands the truth of the word "hidden" very well. He divided his forty-nine people into groups of three to five, each leaving a secret code to facilitate contact, so that they can dress up as three teachers and nine liu, taking advantage of the early morning. Open, mixed into the flow of people, and broken into pieces.

As for himself, he disguised himself as a sickly old man. Erniang helped him into a seemingly ordinary medical clinic, where the doctor who was in charge of the Hundred Ghosts pretended to show him for a while. Mai, they were prescribed medicine and let them go to the back hall to rest.

Entering the quiet room, Ye Fusheng extinguished the incense sticks in the stove, and shook off the bedding on the couch. Then he lay lazily on the bare wooden boards, resting with his eyes closed, his hands on his abdomen, like a stop Dead man on the coffin board.

Er Niang saw his tired face, frowned, and swallowed when she reached her mouth. Unexpectedly, Ye Fusheng seemed to have eyes on his forehead, and said, "What do you want to ask me?"

Er Niang stood in front of the couch and looked at him deeply, "In addition to me, there are forty-two'ghosts' for you to dispatch this time. The master ordered me to wait and obey you. I don't believe you. Outsiders dominate the scene, you should know."

Ye Fusheng let out a lazily "um": "But you don't accept me, and you won't perfuse me on business matters. It doesn't matter if you do."

Er Niang squinted her eyes: "But as an outsider, you are too familiar with Hundred Ghosts."

Forty-two "ghosts" come from all corners of the world, each with their own strengths, and none of them are powerful and brainless people. If they know that this "Chu Xiwei" is false, even if they obey orders, I am afraid that there will be heretics in their hearts. Looking back, I don't know what will happen.

Er Niang was originally worried that Ye Fusheng would show her stuff. After all, a person's appearance can be disguised, and her voice, handwriting and demeanor can be imitated, but the means of action cannot be accomplished overnight. She has prepared for it, but unexpectedly None of the troubles appeared.

When he is silent, he is as prestigious as Chu Xiwei, and he is more cautious and sophisticated in issuing orders, and he can even make good use of these subordinates like Chu Xiwei—

There are a total of nine spies in these "ghosts" who are doing secret spying and lurking all the year round. They have a good understanding of all kinds of intelligence, and they are in the water. Ye Fusheng allowed these spies to be divided into each group as a guide, but he made nine cautious and credible subordinates to be small bosses respectively. He divided them into groups and controlled the joints. One complemented each other, and the other prevented selfishness. The hidden danger of the joint, the third watch avoids the danger of being caught in the vine.

If Erniang hadn't personally helped them to make changes, I am afraid that even she would have thought that "Chu Xiwei" was real.

It is not terrible for the master to trust an outsider. The terrible thing is that this outsider has all his thoughts and means, and he knows a lot about them. Judging from Ye Fusheng's actions on this day, if this person really didn't have a deep friendship with Baiguimen, Erniang would not believe it.

Slowly clenched her hands in her sleeves, and Erniang's eyes had a trace of murderousness that was not easily detectable, but she pressed it down again, and did not act rashly.

Ye Fusheng stretched out his hand and yawned, and said, "I don't know about Hundred Ghosts, but about your master."

After Chu Xiwei came to power, he made a major rectification of Baiguimen's operational deployment, but his youth was taught by Ye Fusheng, and his behavior was deeply influenced by it, and it was inevitable that he would bring Ye Fusheng with him when doing things. Shadow.

Ye Fusheng was born in the shadow guard, and he is best at guessing people's hearts. What's more, this time he is like guessing himself?

Er Niang was startled, but Ye Fusheng had already turned his back to her, and seemed to have truly fallen asleep.

The rare woman who put on a commoner Jingchai's face changed, she kept a vigilance in her heart, told her to retreat, and went out.

As soon as she left, Ye Fusheng sighed softly.

After all kinds of hardships, Chu Xiwei can still believe in him so much. It is beyond Ye Fusheng's expectations. He also knows clearly that if he fails this trust, no one else in his life will be able to do that. Treat him honestly.

It happened that he couldn't believe in himself.

Ye Fusheng knows better than anyone how much he is involved, especially now that he returns to Garan City, he may meet Dark Feather again, and no one can predict how many changes will occur in the middle. People's hearts are the most changeable, and choices are the most difficult to choose. Ye Fusheng is not afraid of slashing, but he is afraid that he will encounter another involuntary choice and hurt Chu Xiwei again.

Showing her edge to Erniang this time is to make this woman who is in a high position in the Hundred Ghosts Gate and holds a heavy weight to raise her guard, and make Ye Fusheng's thorns on her back to advance the Hundred Ghosts Gate Leave a trail.

Since you can't easily promise to live up to it, let yourself have no room for disappointment.

Set aside the worry, Ye Fusheng was able to rest for a while. He didn't even struggle, and soon fell asleep.

After a nap and Shen Shi, Ye Fusheng woke up from his dream.

Since this period of time, "Near Dreams" have occurred more and more frequently, and Ye Fusheng's emotional upheavals will cause this lingering poison. If you close your eyes and rest, you will have nightmares even more.

He started to reduce his sleep intentionally and try not to give poisons the chance to be a demon, but after all, people are flesh and blood. Ye Fusheng knew that there was a tough battle in Garan City, and he had to adjust his state to fight anyway.

Two hours of sleep, Ye Fusheng dreamed that when he was young, he was still running around the mountain by Gu Qifang holding a scabbard on Feiyun Peak. He was finally arrested and brought to justice with a crying face and thrown into a bamboo house. Copy the "Book of Changes" twenty times.

"The sky is healthy, the gentleman always strives for self-improvement; the terrain is great, the gentleman carries things with virtue..." The young Gu Xiao lifted a face painted as a flower cat with ink, "Madam, what do these two sentences mean? ?"

The Daoist who was still green at the time put down the scroll, wiped his face with the kerchief, and said, "I don't understand either."

Gu Xiao was stunned for a moment: "Is there any scripture that the teacher does not understand?"

"The sage still has nothing to say, let alone I am not a sage?" Duan Qing said, "This sentence has multiple meanings, and there is no conclusion yet, but for you, the original meaning is enough."

"What is the original intention?"

Duan Qing picked up his pen and swiped under the words "unstoppable self-improvement" and "being virtuous", saying: "If you face a thousand catastrophes, you will continue to strive for self-improvement, and you can be tolerant of the difficulties and dangers of the world. Heart, don’t forget the original intention, live up to morals and justice."

"It sounds so difficult..." Gu Xiao wailed and lay down on the table, looking sideways, "Master can do it, right."

"Your master can do it, but I can't." Duan Qing lowered his eyelids, "I did something wrong."

Gu Xiao sat up straight: "What's the matter?"

Duan Qing smiled and shook his head, took the scroll and knocked on his head: "Don't chat any more, continue copying the book."

Gu Xiao copied three or two lines with a squishy mouth, and couldn't help saying: "Actually, everyone will do the wrong thing, but if you make mistakes and know your mistakes, you can change it. It's the teacher's words...change it. , Is it all right?"

No one answered him for a long time.

Gu Xiao waited for a long time before hearing Duanqing's voice, the usual implicit softness disappeared, leaving only the cold and hard like a lonely mountain: "Hmm."

He was shocked, turned his head, and saw that the black hair on the chair had white hair.

Gu Xiao stood up, only to find that he was already tall and long and he was an adult man, who was not much taller than the table. He was shocked and looked out the window. The peach blossom tree that was in full bloom was already scorched, and the woman in red who was practicing the sword under the tree disappeared. When he turned around, there was no one on the chair.

Ye Fusheng opened his eyes and sat up from the bed, his back was clammy and his head was covered with cold sweat.

He was panicked, Ye Fusheng twisted his eyebrows, and finally settled, Erniang pushed in.

Seeing Erniang, Ye Fusheng calmly wiped off sweat from his forehead, and said: "When is it?"

"Just after Shenshi." Erniang handed him a letter in his hand, "The spies sent out have returned the news, you look at it."

Ye Fusheng took the letter, with only three pieces of letter paper. He glanced at it and raised his eyebrows: "Interesting."

Three pieces of letter paper, three pieces of information.

The first is a survey on the movement of martial arts people in Garan City in recent months. It can be determined that all the people of all factions who have appeared on the bright side have gone to Wenchan Mountain, but none of those who have found out in the temple have come down. Appeared in Garan City again.

The second is a brief description of the business situation in Garan City in the past six months. Garan City, as a logistics distribution center on the border of Xichuan, has foreigners entering the city almost every month, but most of them are doing business. They come and go. So, the rest is left to store for long-term business, and Baiguimen has already figured out the current situation of these people.

The third thing is what Ye Fusheng told them to check when he entered the city, namely, the population movement and the changes in commodity prices in Jialan City over the past two years.

Er Niang made an estimate of the first two pieces of information, but did not know that Ye Fusheng asked people to inquire about the picture of the third piece of information. When he saw that his palms worked together to shatter the letter paper, she asked, "You inquire about this. What to do?"

"Since half a year ago, the population movement in Jialan City has become frequent, and the refugees from the west have greatly increased, and they have basically settled in the surrounding areas." Ye Fusheng held a piece of paper between his fingers, "The law of this dynasty It is certain that all migrants must hold official documents issued by the government before they can settle in a different place. If you want to get through, it will take more than a month to talk about it. At the beginning of this year, there was a disturbance in Xichuan by aliens, and the people on the border were disturbed and moved to the interior. It makes sense. However, in less than a month after the turmoil, several batches of hundreds of refugees completed their migration and settlement, and they all settled around Garan City. Don’t you think it’s strange?"

Er Niang was surprised.

"As long as the people leave their homes, most of them drag their homes, from Xichuan all the way to Garan City, and there are many bandits along the way. When they arrive here safely, they lose a layer of skin. Even if the local officials of Garan City have a compassionate heart, It is not an easy task to properly arrange these people within half a year." After a pause, Ye Fusheng narrowed his eyes, "What's more, as far as I know, the Zheng Taishou of Garan City is not an incorruptible parent." /

Er Niang's brows were tightly twisted: "Do you suspect that these refugees have problems?"

"Not only the refugees, but also the merchants." Ye Fusheng raised his head, "The people of the rivers and lakes often look at things in the martial arts with grievances and hatred, but no matter who they are, they like all things first. From the intelligence point of view, Garan In the past two years, the city’s commodity prices have changed frequently. The fundamental reason is that the government has increased taxes, forcing merchants to increase prices and protect their capital. However, this has led to the accumulation of poverty among the poor and the accumulation of wealth for the rich. The money was lost in business and was taken advantage of by foreign businessmen...For example, the foreign merchants who often appeared in the city of Garan."

"You mean... what we really want to watch out for is that apart from the deployment of the Soul Burial Palace in the city, there are foreign races?" Er Niang's thoughts turned sharply, "The soul-burial palace's nest is in Lost Ridge, and that place is right. It is the southwest border, separated from those alien races only by a border, if they secretly pass the song..."

The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became. She was shocked not only by Ye Fusheng's keenness and speculation about these details, but also by the surge behind these undercurrents.

What is the ability of the Burial Soul Palace to be able to associate with the aliens outside the Guan apart from the conspiracy of the Li Wang?

Did they use it for Chu Yuan, or did they use Chu Yuan as a cover for stealing the sky?

He Lianyu, what do you want to do?

"Moreover...I'll be honest, the Hundred Ghost Gate's sphere of influence is mainly in the Central Capital. You are too shallow for Garan City. I am afraid that it is not only my own credit to find these in a short time." Ye Fusheng's eyes Going over Erniang and looking at the closed door, "Friends outside, after listening for so long, won't you come in and sit for a while?"
