After entering the city gate, the little maid led Han Xiao to a ready-to-wear shop, and after entering, he walked directly into the back hall, where there was a middle-aged tailor who was still cutting clothes.

Han Xiao didn't know this person, but he always felt as if he had seen it somewhere.

"Han Gongzi is now the man of the year in Hongfeng Fortress, and the streets and alleys are telling you that you are amazing. The tailor put down the scissors in his hand and said to Han Xiao, and as he spoke, he motioned for Han Xiao to sit on the chair next to him, there was already a cup of tea next to the chair, and there was a curling white gas rising from the teacup.

Smelling the fragrance of tea, even Han Xiao, who doesn't understand tea, can feel comfortable, this is not something that a small tailor shop can have, of course, this is definitely not just a tailor shop.

"Your Excellency?"

The middle-aged tailor was stunned for a moment, then seemed to suddenly remember something, and said with a smile: "Oh yes, I forgot to introduce myself." I'm Zhang Duqian, Director of the Tomb Guard's Southern Region Security Division. ”

Han Xiao hadn't heard of this name, but he still knew the head of the Southern Regions of the Tomb Guard, this official position was the same level as the commander-in-chief of the Southern Regions of the Tomb Guard, and he was in charge of the intelligence agencies and armed forces of the Tomb Guard in the Southern Regions, although the system of the Tomb Guard was separated from the official system of the entire Blood Dome, but in terms of the actual power of these two positions, they were now higher than the branch inspector general of the Southern Regions Branch of the Supervision Department, because in fact, this official position was already the head of His Majesty's secret service, and to a certain extent, he was already directly responsible to His Majesty.

"I don't know how the kid can be able to receive a big man like you in person. Han Xiao's face was as usual, neither humble nor arrogant.

Zhang Duqian and Han Xiao only had two contacts, but he still had a very high opinion of this young man, of course, some of this evaluation must come from the rumors in the streets and alleys, of course, as the head of the tomb guard intelligence, he knows more about what happened in Xidaying, and it is closer to reality.

"You don't have to ask me so tentatively, all I can tell you is that my boss gave me an instruction, which is to do my best to help you and a few other remnants of the Red Village, and you are just a key person, as for the authenticity of my identity, I don't need to prove anything, after all, it is a sure thing that I am not your enemy. ”

When Han Xiao heard this, he suddenly stood up from his position and asked Zhang Duqian, "Is there anyone still alive in Hongzhai?"

Zhang Duqian nodded, and then said, "There are a few children who are about the same age as you who survived, and they didn't seem to be with most of them, so they avoided the catastrophe." Would you like to meet them?"

Han Xiao shook his head slowly, and then sat down again.

"You don't have to worry about them, with the secret help of our tomb guards, they will not be in any danger in the fortress, and these children now want to annex the underground forces of the entire fortress, but fortunately, this underground force is actually controlled by our tomb guards, and it has been explained, at the right time, I will choose the right person from among them to be in charge of this force of the fortress." Zhang Duqian took a sip of tea and closed her eyes comfortably.

"Thank you Lord Zhang, I don't know what you need me to do if you help me like this?" Han Xiaozi didn't believe that anyone would help him for no reason.

Zhang Duqian suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Han Xiaodao: "No need, you don't have to doubt it, just like the head of the tomb guard can be a tailor without cultivation, nothing is impossible." What's more, I told you that I got a clear instruction from above, and I really want to ask why you might be asking the wrong person. ”

Zhang Duqian paused for a moment, saw that Han Xiao was still full of suspicion, and then said: "By the way, if you really want to say something, it's not nothing, but it's up to you to decide whether to do it or not, I don't want you to repay the favor or anything else, everything is just up to your will." ”

With a look on his face that was really like this, Han Xiao smiled at Zhang Duqian, this smile didn't mean anything else, after all, the courtesy was mutually beneficial Han Xiao still understood.

"What's the matter?"

"You need to come with me to meet someone, and I promise you'll be perfectly satisfied, because the person you're going to kill will be involved. Then the tailor got up and went out.

Han Xiao looked at the man's back, and then drank the tea and followed.

In a teahouse in the Red Peak Fortress, Pan Cong was busy preparing for something, and the action of looking inside and out from time to time revealed the nervousness in his heart at the moment, which was a relatively rare situation for other members of the fortress tomb guard.

Although Pan Cong is not very old, he has been very outstanding since he took over the Hongfeng Fortress Branch, and it is the first time in these years that his subordinates have seen their own chief officer so cautious, as if they are afraid of doing something wrong.

In the backyard of this teahouse, Zhang Duqian and Han Xiao, who had left, were already sitting together, and the opposite position was still empty.

Pan Cong suddenly came here from the front, pushed open the door and said respectfully to Zhang Duqian, "My lord, the guest has arrived." ”

"Then please come in. Zhang Duqian has always behaved very calmly, and although Pan Cong and Han Xiao who were present were nothing on the surface, they were still very worried in their hearts, one was because of the sudden arrival of the high-level tomb guards, and the other was full of various speculations and ideas.

After Pan Cong left the private room, two figures walked over from the outside without hurrying.

After pushing open the wooden door, an old man and a middle-aged man walked in, and when they saw that the opposite side of the two people in the room was empty, they understood that it was their place, and the two went directly to sit down.

Han Xiao had never seen these two people, but judging from the aura on these two people, the two people in ordinary clothes on the opposite side were enough to pose a threat to themselves, and both of them were masters among the masters.

The more he observed these two people, the more fine the sweat in Han Xiao's palms became.

The two people on the other side were stunned for a moment when they saw Han Xiao, and then they behaved calmly, which made Han Xiao feel a lot more uneasy, judging from the reactions of these two people, they probably knew themselves.

Zhang Duqian got up, poured tea for the two people opposite him like a servant, and then returned to his position and said, "Lord Governor, please don't be surprised if you take the liberty of inviting you. ”

Hearing this, Han Xiao already knew the identity of the old man opposite, in this small teahouse, the heads of the two major forces in the Southern Regions had gathered at this moment, especially the identity of the town governor, and he was a figure who could change the sky with a shake in the Southern Regions.

Looking at the old man on the opposite side whose beard was already white, Han Xiao no longer wondered about the huge pressure that the other party had brought to him, how could the head of the top power in the Blood Dome not have such an aura.

"Twilight, you've been so polite all these years. Zhang Xuanzong behaved very casually, took a sip of tea, and said: "Like your tea, I haven't grown at all over the years." ”

Zhang Duqian laughed.

"My lord laughed, let's get straight to the point. Compared to the news of the imperial capital, the adults have also received it, and I have received instructions from my family to fully cooperate with this matter, and this time I am here to discuss relevant matters with the adults. ”

"Do you already have a plan? Tell me about it?" After Zhang Xuanzong heard what the other party said, he didn't shy away from Han Xiao, and asked directly.

Zhang Duqian shook his head when he heard Zhang Xuanzong's question: "My lord said that I laughed, my lord ordered me to cooperate with the action, this time I just came to hand over to you the power that can be mobilized temporarily in the southern region of the tomb guard, and it is impossible to do all of them, you also know that Your Majesty's gambling contract has restrictions on both sides, although this restriction is not so clear." ”

Zhang Xuanzong nodded and motioned for the other party to continue.

"We can't send any more people because of the power on the surface, and the twelve people given last time are still the same because they preceded His Majesty's bet, and there is no problem. As for the rest, our grave guards can only respond to the perimeter during the operation, and the Security Division can provide all the intelligence information we know. After saying this, Zhang Duqian drank tea.

Zhang Xuanzong's expression on the other side was much more serious, although the tomb guards could not send force, but the sentence that provided all the intelligence information they knew was not insignificant.

You must know that as His Majesty's spy organization, the intelligence information that the Security Division has in the Southern Regions is huge, which is not only of great help to this operation, but if someone has the intention to use this matter to get information from the Security Division, the results must be quite considerable.

All-in intelligence is the maximum that can be achieved for an organization whose job is to spy on intelligence.

"Your family attaches so much importance to this operation?"

"Don't hide it from the town governor, except because of the red village, our company has detected the traces of those rats, and they seem to be involved in this matter. ”

Zhang Xuanzong, who had always behaved relatively easy-going, after hearing the news, the aura around his body stagnated, and there was a faint murderous aura about to burst out.

"I see, so thank you for your support this time. ”

Then Zhang Xuanzong looked at Han Xiao and said with a smile: "This kid should also belong to me, right?"

Han Xiao's hairs all over his body stood up, what does it mean that he belongs to the other party, is he a bargaining chip between the two parties, this feeling of not knowing the inside story at all and being at the mercy of others makes Han Xiao feel very bad.

"Boy, what are you nervous about, I don't plan to do anything to you. Zhang Xuanzong was relieved to Han Xiao.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am a small person, can you explain the matter to me, the boy is grateful. "Han Xiao wants to cry without tears, he is a knife and I am a fish, and I feel that I am dying in vain.

Zhang Duqian said to Zhang Xuanzong at this time: "Lord Zhendu, the people belong to you, but my family also said that I hope that the matter will not be forced on him, everything depends on his own will." ”

"Don't worry, this kid won't refuse. Then Zhang Xuanzong said to the middle-aged man who came with him: "Qiu Zhen, you take him back first, and explain the situation to him by the way, I feel that if you don't say anything, this kid will have to make a big fuss again." ”

Qiu Zhen responded, and led Han Xiao out with a smile, and Pan Cong outside the door saw Qiu Zhen come out, and hurriedly saluted, and then ordered someone to take the two out of the teahouse.

Without the guidance of the tomb guards, it is quite difficult to get out of this small teahouse safely and soundly, at least in this less than 100-meter distance, Han Xiao can feel several waves of people watching.

After leaving the teahouse, there were more than a dozen strong men dressed in servant costumes outside, Qiu Zhen nodded to them and led Han Xiao away sneakily alone.
