Outside Shen's house.

A white-feathered carrier pigeon.

A gray-winged falcon.

Each is divided into two ends, flapping its wings and flying into the far sky.

About two hours later.

Far away from an unknown old mountain on the outskirts of Luodo.

A well-built, small but ingenious thatched hut is located in a dense forest col, and it looks leisurely in the seclusion.

At this moment, in the thatched hut, a man wearing a white robe, a handsome face, a calm temperament, and a little cold, gently wiped his palm.

In an instant, a long letter turned into powder in his palm.

The man in the white robe stood up with his hands in his hands, looked out the window, and meditated silently.

A moment later.

Outside the hut.

Boom, there was a bang, and it seemed that something heavy had fallen.

The white-robed man's brows moved slightly, and then he walked out of the house.

I saw a huge mountain bear with a huge body and an almost water tank-like head falling to the ground. The bear's fur was shiny, but its claws and throat were badly damaged.

Although the bear died, it avoided damage to its fur, indicating that it was the work of a veteran.

"How about it, Senior Brother Xu, autumn is coming in winter, and it is just the right time to make a cloak from this bear skin, hahaha......"

Cao Wuxian rubbed the blood stains on his hands and walked slowly towards the white-robed man.

"You're so interested!"

Xu Xiao's voice was low and magnetic, and he said with a smile, "I know that I can use these tricks to please my teacher." ”

Cao Wuxi suddenly smiled bitterly:

"I thought that my father would scold me and leave, but I didn't know that I would have to patrol the Luodu area. I have no choice but to hide in front of you, a beloved disciple, and use you to block my father's evil spirit. ”

Cao Wuxi said, and immediately asked in a low voice:

"What the hell is it that provoked you two to come?"

Cao Song is one of the six Banner Governors of Jinyi Wei Town, and Xu Xiao is Cao Song's chief disciple, and his identity is the Inspector of Jinyi Wei Emperor's Banner.

In the Jinyi Wei Zhenfu Division of the Qianxi Dynasty, the authority of the Heavenly King was the highest, and the six major flags were the governors, the imperial flag supervisors, the gold flag, the silver flag, and the bronze flag.

The matter of being able to make Cao Song, the governor of the left capital, and Xu Xiao, the superintendent, both dispatched, must be a great event if Cao Wuxian thinks about it.

Sure enough, Xu Xiao said indifferently:

"The New Year is approaching, the 80th birthday of the Queen Mother is approaching, and the war in southern Xinjiang is in full swing. At such moments, I am most careless! Jinyiwei is responsible for patrolling the world, and it is also my duty to travel with my teacher. ”

Cao Wuxi frowned and said:

"Since you came to Luodu, it has something to do with King Fu, right?"

Xu Xiao just smiled faintly and did not speak.

Cao Wuxian suddenly smiled:

"Okay, okay, don't ask, don't ask!"

In Cao Wuxi's mind, this Senior Brother Xu is both wise and brave, and he is a very powerful character. Cao Song is also cultivating with all his might, and in the future, the position of Zuo Du Governor will also be handed over to Xu Xiao.

In recent years, Xu Xiao has been exercising the power of the governor of the left capital, but Cao Song is not very in charge.

Cao Wuxian said a few words, and then he had to peel off the bear skin.

Xu Xiao suddenly asked:

"What do you think of that Shen Lian's doing things for others?"

Cao Wuxian was stunned.

It stands to reason that with Xu Xiao's position of power, it is impossible to inquire about Shen Lian's small role.

Besides, Shen Lian is still a secret spy, when Cao Wuxian arranged this road, in order to avoid Cao Song's worries, he deliberately avoided Cao Song and Xu Xiao's eyeliner.

"What's the matter, did your father mention Shen Lian to you?"

Xu Xiao shook his head and said, "The teacher never said it. ”

Cao Wuxian secretly breathed a sigh of relief, after all, the eldest princess privately cared about Han Zhai and Shen Lian, and this secret matter was only known to him and his father for the time being.

"Then do you know that I made a bet with my father about Shen Lian's investigation of the case?"

Cao Wuxian asked again with a strange face.

Xu Xiao nodded and said:

"Yes, the teacher said that. And I forgot to tell you that I personally came forward to arrange Shen Lian's first spy mission. ”

Cao Wuxi's face darkened.

"Then you, like your father, also think that Shen Lian will lose?" Cao Wuxian asked again.

Xu Xiao was noncommittal, but said indifferently:

"So want to hear what you think about this person. ”

"Then you're asking the right question!"

Cao Wuxian said, "This kid went from being unknown to coming up, and in a short period of time, he actually solved several important cases in a row. And he is bold and ruthless, and his methods are resolute, and he will hit with one blow!"

"Did you see it with your own eyes?" asked Xu Xiao.

"I've been involved in it all and what I've seen with my own eyes. Cao Wuxian snorted.

In other words, this person has never made a mistake or omission in solving the case. Once you get a glimpse of the target, you will definitely win, and every hit will be hit?" Xu Xiao asked again.

"Yes, I lived him for twenty more years in vain, and I can't even understand how this kid investigates and how to solve the methods. Shame, shame!"

Cao Wuxian shook his head with a wry smile.

"Things are abnormal, he is a small nine products, he has no power and no power, how can he have superb means?" Xu Xiao asked again.

"You don't know. Cao Wuxian laughed.

"The Luodu Aquarius Temple is his backing! This kid has good luck and is favored by the Aquarius Temple. And the Aquarius Temple is really good to him!"

Xu Xiao was thoughtful.

After a while, Xu Xiao smiled and said:

"Your evaluation of Shen Lian is so high?"

Cao Wuxi immediately crossed his waist and smiled:

"Of course, although my strength is a little lower than yours, my eyesight is no worse than yours!"

Xu Xiao was still noncommittal, looked at the mountain peak from afar, and said after a while:

"I'll go out and maybe come back later. ”

As he spoke, he made a mistake under his feet, and he disappeared like a fleeting shadow.

Cao Wuxi muttered to himself and continued to peel the bear skin on the ground.

。。

Temple of Aquarius.

In the abbot's ashram, Abbot Keats held a long letter and shook it gently.

In an instant, the long letter came to naught.

After a while, the door to the meditation room opened.

Xintuo walked in slowly, clasped his palms and said, "I've seen the abbot!"

Abbot Keats nodded: "Sit down." ”

There was peace in the room, and he didn't speak, but sat quietly with his eyebrows down.

After a while, Abbot Keats spoke:

"What do you think of Shen Lian?"

Xintuo was silent for a moment, and then replied with his palms folded:

"This son is bold and careful, and has hidden ambitions. ”

After saying that, after the silence, he added: "There are eight points of resemblance to that outcast!"

Abbot Keats shook his head and laughed:

"Xintuo, Xintuo, are you complimenting or depreciating?"

He didn't answer, but sat quietly with his brows down.

Abbot Keats thought for a moment and said:

"If you were sent to do a tricky thing that might offend the Governor of Lodo, would you?"

Xintuo was stunned.

"Abbot, our Xihai Zen monk faction is weak in the land of Qianxi. If it weren't for King Fu's intention to target the national teacher, the Aquarius Temple would not have been built in Luodu City. ”

"It is not easy to establish the Aquarius Temple! how can the abbot shake the foundation?"

When Abbot Keats heard this, he sighed:

"That's true. But Uncle Liu made a promise to exchange the Aquarius Temple to be a villain once. After all, I still choose Uncle Liu's side. ”

Xintuo was shocked and speechless.

After all, Liu Suifeng is the first seat of the Gongye Hall of the 'Shakya Ancestral Garden' in the West Sea, and a big man at the top of the four grades. His promise, whether it is to instruct the exercises or help the Aquarius Temple, is a good thing that the Aquarius Temple cannot ask for.

"Is it for Shen Lian again?" asked Xintuo in a low voice.

Abbot Keats nodded:

"Shen Lian sent me a letter, and he said it clearly and clearly, and I also thought about it in detail. If you agree to this, you don't need to do anything to go, just show up. ”

Xintuo was stunned again: "Show up?"

Abbot Keats didn't know what to think, shook his head and laughed:

"This kid has too many scheming, we have to be a little more careful when dealing with him in the future!"

Xintuo was speechless for a moment, and had to ask: "Since the abbot has an order, Xintuo naturally obeys." I don't know where I want to go, and how?"

Abbot Keats waved his hand and said, "Come, come with your ears." ”

Xintuo approached, and the two of them whispered a few words.

"This ......" Xintuo's face suddenly became bitter.

"Let's go, just to see what tricks this kid plays!"

Abbot Keats smiled and waved.

Xintuo had no choice but to get up and leave.
