The old business of Swallow Hall?

Xiaobao shouted in surprise, but Li Xun smiled faintly. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

At this moment, Li Xun suddenly followed Xiaobao's words and talked about the underground crawling world, which seemed to be a little unintentional, but in fact, who knows?

Originally, such a confidential matter as the underground crawling world should not be talked about in front of many outsiders, especially ordinary people such as Zhao Fatzi and Zhao Xiaomu.

Li Xun chose this time to say, one is because this timing is very good, the so-called is just right.

Second, he originally came to find Ma Sanye, although he wanted to help Zhao Fatzi, but part of the reason was that he came to Yanzitang's old business.

Yanzitang's old business is concise in three words, that is: selling intelligence.

In ancient society, all gangs in the rivers and lakes, such as the beggar gang, the Cao gang, the Qing gang, and even the big factions such as Shaolin and Wudang, must have an economic foundation if they want to survive and grow.

The same is true for Swallow Hall.

Yanzitang originally made a fortune with talent, the founding patriarch Yan Qing was versatile, and Master Li was a famous prostitute through the ages.

At that time, famous prostitutes were not like women who sell meat now, they could make a lot of money by having a beautiful face and being able to gasp a few times.

People like Master Li, they can be called famous prostitutes, in addition to having beautiful appearances, more importantly, they must also have outstanding talents.

Among the famous prostitutes in ancient times, even many of them were not prostitutes.

Therefore, Yan Qing and Master Li's disciples have many brothels and opera troupes, and they train famous singers, kabuki, and even songwriters and novels, and use this as a source of income.

But in ancient times, not to mention Sister Yao, even if she was an ordinary opera artist, her status was actually very low, and she was even derogatorily called "opera", unlike today's stars, who were sought after by tens of thousands of people, making money every day, and the scenery was infinite.

If Yanzitang has been engaged in these industries, they will undoubtedly not be able to go up to the grade and become a climate.

The reason why Yanzitang has some reputation and status in the rivers and lakes is mainly because they are doing other things through these professions.

That's selling intelligence.

The industry they are in gives them the opportunity to come into contact with all kinds of people, and the children they have deliberately cultivated have made their ability to gather intelligence very powerful.

In the old rivers and lakes before, it is no exaggeration to say that there is nothing in the world that Yanzitang does not know.

Therefore, most of the people who mix in the rivers and lakes have to give Yanzitang some face.

Who knows, will he ask Swallow Hall to buy information in the future?

Even if you don't buy information, it will undoubtedly be a headache to anger Yanzitang, deliberately collect your intelligence and sell it to your enemies, or even give it to your enemies for free.

People walk in the rivers and lakes, how can they not have enemies?

Swallow Hall has been doing this business of selling intelligence for nearly a thousand years, and this business has brought rich benefits and lofty status to Swallow Hall, allowing Swallow Hall to stand tall for thousands of years without falling.

Anyone who can stand for a thousand years without falling, such as the four masters of the Hunting Gate, after all, they all have some capital, and the same is true for Swallow Hall.

It's just that in the past seven or eight years, Li Xun is not very clear whether Yanzitang has continued to do this.

After all, the times are developing, and although the rivers and lakes are still there, there are some changes after all.

Therefore, Li Xun's words about crawling the world underneath are actually a stone throwing to ask for directions and make a temptation.

But when the question went out, Ma Sanye's words and expressions made Li Xun a little disappointed.

Ma Sanye didn't even know about the underground crawling world?

Ma Sanye hasn't even heard of this name?

Isn't it, Yanzitang no longer does this old business?

Just when Li Xun was a little surprised in his heart and thinking about how to continue to say this question, Ma Sanye's eyes looked at Zhuo Linglong and asked, "Linglong, do you know about the underground crawling world?"

Zhuo Linglong replied respectfully: "Third master, we know a little about this matter, it is a recent major event in China, but we are not very clear about the specific situation.

It is said that about a month ago, there was a big flood in Changde, and the state deduced that it was the creatures in the water that caused chaos, so they invited Mr. Li and other four hunters to go out to round up and hunt a giant crocodile by the Yangtze River.

Later, I heard that Mr. Li and others followed the clues of the giant crocodile and traced them to Qiandongnan Autonomous Prefecture and found an underground karst cave, which was raised by some people with ulterior motives to raise a group of huge reptiles to conduct secret experiments. ”

Zhuo Linglong said it lightly, but Li Xun and Xiaobao glanced at each other, and they could see the surprise in each other's eyes.

In Zhuo Linglong's mouth, she said that she "knows a little", but in fact, the information she understands can be said to be relatively comprehensive, at least where it is correct.

How did Zhuo Linglong know?

Li Xun couldn't know.

From this moment on, Li Xun suddenly paid some attention to the woman Zhuo Linglong.

The original Li Xun's impression of Zhuo Linglong, a woman, was nothing more than that she was relatively beautiful, an important follower by Ma Sanye's side, and so on.

But now it seems that Zhuo Linglong, this woman, is not an ordinary follower.

She should be another important person in the Swallow Hall, and it is even possible that Ma Sanye has handed over the intelligence gathering work to Zhuo Linglong to deal with.

It can be seen that Zhuo Linglong is a person who is as his name suggests, with seven exquisite tricks.

So what Ma Sanye didn't know, Zhuo Linglong knew.

Ma Sanye listened to Zhuo Linglong's introduction, nodded slightly, and asked Li Xun rhetorically: "Li Xun, are the behind-the-scenes organizations you are talking about those people with ulterior motives that Zhuo Linglong said?"

Li Xun nodded: "Yes!"

"You want to find out what is behind this?"

"Yes, I've been trying to find out about this organization. Li Xun hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Third master, I think you also know that a major incident happened in Huangshan eight years ago. ”

"I know, you hunted the four families in the Yellow Mountain, the domestic hunting door went to seven or eight, the Li Gate was almost wiped out, you alone escaped from the Yellow Mountain, and then the Song family was also wiped out. Ma Sanye said.

Zhuo Linglong added softly: "Third master, the Song family has not been destroyed, and there is still a descendant named Song Junxing, who is now heard to be with Mr. Li." ”

Ma Sanye looked at Li Xun with some embarrassment, and said, "I'm really sorry, in the past five or six years, I have already handed over the intelligence collection work to Linglong to deal with." ”

Li Xun remained silent, but said in his heart that it was true, he had guessed well before.

Ma Sanye continued: "You suddenly mentioned the incident eight years ago, isn't it the behind-the-scenes organization of this underground crawling world, and it has something to do with the Huangshan incident eight years ago?"

Li Xun nodded: "Yes." ”

Ma Sanye sighed: "It's a pity, although we know some about what happened to you in the hunting eight years ago, we don't know much, and we didn't spend the energy to track it down, otherwise we might be able to provide you with some help." ”

Li Xun thanked and said: "I understand the kindness of the third master. ”

Ma Sanye shook his hand with a serious expression: "Don't thank you so quickly, now that you suddenly talk about the behind-the-scenes organization of this underground crawling world, I know it in my heart, do you want to ask us to help you find the whereabouts of this organization?"

Ma Sanye said very directly, and his eyes flashed with wisdom.

Li Xun was stunned for a moment, but he didn't hide it, and said with a smile: "Having this idea really makes the third master laugh." ”

"But I know that the four of you have been working for the country and have been doing things for the country, if this kind of thing happens to you, does the country just ask?" Ma Sanye's tone became a little intriguing.
