Chapter 1178: Snow Tower on the Sand

Originally, Fang Shi planned to return to Qingcheng Mountain early the next morning, but early in the morning, Zhenrong Daoist sent his junior brother Guo Shiteng to visit, speaking of which, Qingyang Palace and Qingcheng Mountain Bidong Palace are still the same spirit and the same sect, although the two sides compete with each other, but in the end, they are from the same door, and Fang Shi can't help but give face to this senior brother.

Guo Shiteng is very respectful, although he is the senior brother of Fang Shi according to his seniority, but the master is the first, he is even a second-rate reluctantly, this is the great master in front of him, in fact, the great master is just an honorific title, Fang Shi is close to the third stage of refining Qi and returning to God, even if Guo Shiteng is honored by the juniors, it is not an exaggeration.

Fang Shi was a little strange when he saw Guo Shiteng, this Guo Shiteng had a grand face, at first glance, he was a person who was obsessed with power, and he could even cultivate to a second-rate level, and he didn't know if he changed his mind halfway, or if he had some adventures.

However, Qingyang Palace sent such a person over, obviously not to discuss academic issues, Fang Shi had some ideas of wanting to push the matter to the Yunshan Dao people, but the Yunshan Dao people ran faster, and they had long since disappeared, obviously, Fang Shi also saw what he saw, or it should be said, what kind of character this Guo Shiteng is, the Yunshan Dao people have long been clear.

Fang Shi invited the guests into the living room to sit, there was no one else in the villa, Fang Shi had to prepare tea by himself, which made Guo Shiteng feel a little frightened.

"Master Guo, what is the matter with your visit today?"

Fang Shi asked bluntly, the demeanor of Guo Shiteng in the tea room just now made Fang Shi understand that this person was a scheming person, so he would be afraid of himself, if he was polite to him again. I don't know if this thing will be scared away. So Fang Shi felt that it was better to put up a shelf. The so-called "talking to people" and talking nonsense is not because you are cunning, but because people don't understand you when you talk to ghosts.

Guo Shiteng subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, and Fang Shi put on this condescending posture, which made him feel at ease.

"Master Fang, I don't know how to go around the corner, I'll just say it directly, I heard that Xie Zhihao and Xie Gongzi came to see Master Fang yesterday. It didn't seem like a pleasant meeting. ”

Fang Shi pursed his lips: "There is such a thing, could it be that Master Guo is here to say something for this Xie Zhihao?" ”

Guo Shiteng shook his head with a smile: "Don't dare, I came to talk about this Xie family, as for Xie Zhihao, it's just a yellow-mouthed child." ”

Fang Shi tugged at the corners of his mouth slightly, from these two sentences, you can see this Guo Shiteng's heart, this person is humble on the surface, but he is very proud in his bones, in his eyes, there are probably only two kinds of people in the world. Those who can be exploited and those who are to be utilized.

However, Guo Shiteng's temperament has nothing to do with Fang Shi. Fang Shi will not clean up the portal for Qingyang Palace, perhaps, Qingyang Palace is going to use such a person, anyway, with Guo Shiteng's ability and ability, he can't jump out of the Five Finger Mountain of Qingyang Palace, so as long as he has the ability, as for the heart, it may not be important.

"Xie family? Okay, tell me what's going on? ”

Guo Shiteng's face was solemn, and his eyes were slightly reserved: "I heard that Master Fang didn't want to see that Xie Zhihao, presumably because Master Fang's physiognomy was exquisite, and he had already seen something on Xie Zhihao's face."

Guo Shiteng said halfway, stopped and looked at Fang Shi playfully, Fang Shi smiled faintly and said, "So, you already knew?" ”

Guo Shiteng smiled proudly and said: "It's not early, it's just a day earlier than Master Fang, it just so happened that Mayor Xie went to ask me to see Senior Brother Zhenrong, Senior Brother looked at it, and immediately understood that the disaster of the Xie family was coming." And Master Fang can draw the same conclusion from Xie Zhihao's face, he is worthy of being a great grandmaster, hehe. ”

Fang Shi frowned slightly, there was something in Guo Shiteng's words.

"What does Master Guo want to say?"

"Master Fang, do you know that this Mayor Xie is very close to Mr. Liu Manfu from your family, but this gentleman suddenly went to see my senior brother, don't you think it's a little strange here?"

"Eccentric? What's weird? ”

Guo Shiteng looked at Fang Shi with some confusion, could it be that what he said was so clear, and Fang Shi still didn't understand? This is definitely not true, the name of the great master is not called in vain, so he pretends not to know?

"Master Fang, didn't you know the relationship between Mayor Xie and Liu Manfu before?"

Fang Shi frowned: "Listening to you say this, is this Mayor Xie very close to Liu Manfu?" ”

Guo Shiteng was stunned for a moment, and then nodded with a somewhat gloating smile: "Yes, the relationship between the two is very close, but what I am even more surprised is that you don't know about this, this is really"

"Yes, then why did Mayor Xie go to see the chief of your town? What is Master Guo here for today? ”

Seeing that Fang Shi deliberately didn't talk about Liu Manfu's affairs, although Guo Shiteng still had malicious pleasure in his heart, he didn't dare to continue to entangle at this time, for fear that Fang Shi would be annoyed and angry, and it would not be good at that time.

Guo Shiteng straightened his body, coughed lightly and said, "Master Fang, Mayor Xie went to see my senior brother really to get closer to my Qingyang Palace in order to seek the protection of Qingyang Palace. ”

Fang Shi smiled noncommittally: "This person is not looking for Liu Manfu but looking for the Zhenrong Daoist of your sect, obviously knowing his own affairs, my Qingcheng Mountain will not help him, can I guess so?" ”

Guo Shiteng sighed secretly in his heart, Fang Shi really understood, and now, it was his turn to express his position.

"Master Fang is wise, my senior brother said the same, this person has a great evil face, and at this time, he suddenly asked for the door of my Qingyang Palace in a low voice, obviously because he was worried that your family would not help."

"Then you're going to help him?"

Fang Shi asked with a smile, Guo Shiteng looked at Fang Shi's smiling face and felt a little nowhere to focus, he still thought that he could use the matter of the Xie family as a bargaining chip to exchange some benefits from Qingcheng Mountain, who knew that people didn't care about the Xie family at all, it was obvious that this plan of his own might be in vain, so it would be up to him to see if another plan could be achieved.

"Master Fang, do you think we will want something that your family doesn't want?"

Fang Shi smiled and said, "That's your business, how would I know." ”

Guo Shiteng was stabbed by Fang Shi, and a layer of cold sweat suddenly broke out on his back, he was a little anxious just now.

"Master Fang said with a smile, the so-called abnormal things must have demons, we investigated a little and found that the matter of the Xie family is not simple"

Speaking of this, Guo Shiteng stopped again, and Fang Shi only felt bored with this guy who liked to sell guanzi and play temptation, so he waved his hand and said: "What's not simple, it can go wrong at this time, it's a big problem, there must be someone behind it." ”

Guo Shiteng's face froze, and he couldn't help but secretly cry bitterly in his heart, could it be that his other plan had also failed? So what is he running for here? Is it just to perform a monkey show in front of Fang Shi?

Guo Shiteng thought about it, and naturally showed a trace of frustration on his face, Fang Shi smiled secretly when he saw it, this product really plans to use the Xie family to bargain with himself? Is this waste utilization?

In fact, the matter of the Xie family is not difficult to understand at all, there was a problem at the juncture of the establishment of the Supervision Bureau, and the Xie family originally had a close relationship with the people of Qingcheng Mountain, but at the critical moment, they ran to Qingyang Palace to try to bet on both sides, which is obviously the behavior of rushing to the doctor shows that things are in a hurry, and what's worse is that the Xie family is not clean on his buttocks.

Such a Xie family itself will not be valued by Fang Shi, and as for the Xie family, Fang Shi does not care if he wants to throw himself into Qingyang Palace, but in the eyes of outsiders, the Xie family, which originally relied on Qingcheng Mountain, was abandoned, and then thrown into Qingyang Palace, plus Qingyang Palace is about to win the first director of supervision, connecting these things in series, it will inevitably make people have the illusion that Qingyang Palace is overpowering Qingcheng Mountain.

If this kind of view spreads, or rather, this kind of view will definitely spread, because someone must be behind the back, and more provocative means will be added, the purpose of which is of course to intensify the contradiction between Qingcheng Mountain and Qingyang Palace, and the direct target is, of course, the Supervision Bureau that has just carried out the pilot.

Therefore, it is probably clear who is behind this.

It's a pity that this kind of technique is actually too low-level, Qingcheng Mountain can see it, Qingyang Palace can also understand it, as long as the two families will not really intensify the conflict, then let him conspire, it's just a bamboo basket to draw water.

Guo Shiteng shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Doesn't Master Fang want to know who is behind this matter?" ”

Fang Shi smiled faintly and said: "I'm really not interested in knowing, these people are probably scared, no matter who they are, since they are scared now, then when the Supervision Bureau is operational, they will naturally jump out, or be arrested, speaking of which, it will take a lot of effort from Lao Guimen, hehe"

Guo Shiteng opened his mouth, feeling that his mouth was full of bitterness, and after a while, he said astringently: "Master Fang really sees thousands of miles, hehe"

Fang Shi smiled and said, "Master Guo, I have a message for you to bring to your senior brother." ”

Guo Shiteng sat up straight when he heard this, looking like he was honestly taught, and he didn't know how to scold Fang Shi Fang Shi in his heart.

Fang Shi said slowly with a smile: "The purpose of the establishment of the Supervision Bureau is to check and balance the government's governance, in addition, the Supervision Bureau has no other role, if someone plans to use the Supervision Bureau to do something else, the result will definitely be very bad, this is not only my opinion, but also the official opinion, please pay attention to this." ”

Guo Shiteng's face turned pale suddenly, Fang Shi's words seemed to be specifically said to him, no, this is a stern warning and threat, Fang Shi is warning him not to use the Supervision Bureau to gain power, let alone use the Supervision Bureau to make profits, otherwise, the result

Guo Shiteng suddenly felt that he was very stupid, he always thought that he was very smart, and he was good at dancing with long sleeves to take advantage of the situation, but unfortunately it was only at this moment that he understood that the root of politics was the confrontation of strength, and he could only borrow strength without strength.
