Chapter 17 Counting birds with one stone

"It is recorded in the Taoist scriptures that when the celestial beings were still coming and going to this realm, Jianmu was the passage for them to go up and down. In this way, if the Upper Realm is not only a city in the sky, but also a large land river, it should be bigger than our Kyushu, right?"

Yan Kaiting said, revealing a look of fascination, "You see, looking up from here, the sky is like an infinite high, so how vast and vast the land under it is. Mingxuan, you've traveled a lot over the years, right?"

"Except for Hubei and Western Prefectures, the rest have set foot in it. However, most of the people who go out have the task of being a teacher, and they also go to sectarian mountain gates and monk cities, or they are some secret realms, so they can only take a look. ”

Yan Kaiting suddenly thought of something and asked, "How long will you stay this time?"

Fu Mingxuan said in a low voice: "I came back this time to move my family to the location of the division. ”

Both were silent.

After a long time, Yan Kaiting said: "The environment in the land of Xianmen should be excellent, and the godmother can reunite with you, right?" The godmother in his mouth is Mrs. Fu, she was originally a southerner, and she became more and more unsuitable for the winter in the north as she got older, and she had to go back to her parents' home for more than half a year in recent years to recuperate.

Fu Mingxuan's expression moved, and he turned his head to look at Yan Kaiting, as if he wanted to say something, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them back, and only said, "Yes." ”

Yan Kaiting didn't notice his strange appearance, put one hand behind his head, and looked at the starry sky overhead, "When this happens, I have to go out to have a look, I can't stay in Yongzhou for the rest of my life." ”

Immediately, Fu Mingxuan took over the topic and turned to the day's affairs. At present, the news about this matter has not spread, and there is almost no discussion in Yujing City.

After Tu Yuyong went back, the Tu family immediately sealed their mouths, and now there is no movement at all. At that time, the only person who came out and obviously climbed Yan to open the court was Tu Yurong, presumably the head of the Tu family had a headache.

The Yan family's side has always been only when Xia Pingsheng is not doing anything, and since he has already come forward, naturally he can't spread messy gossip. But it is almost certain that Xia Pingsheng will also not do anything to Hu Donglai. After all, Hu Donglai was also on the "Golden Boat" at the time of the incident, and he had no handle on the surface.

As for some of the small local family members present at the time, whether it was a pre-arranged nail or just a coincidence, they would not jump out at this time and attract attention to themselves.

And after Xia Pingsheng went to meet Tan Xiang Ying, he made an appointment with the three big managers of Tu, Fu, and Lu to meet, and the defense arrangements for the "Demon Moment" were the beginning. Obviously, in the face of the upcoming life-and-death situation, unanimity is the most important thing, and all kinds of internal strife must be put aside.

After listening to Yan Kaiting, he calculated the time, Xia Pingsheng should have come to teach him a lesson as soon as he returned to the city, and his heart was mixed for a while.

However, for the sake of the overall situation, it is not suitable for families to attack each other on the eve of the "Demon Moment", let alone family internal strife, but Yan Kaiting, as a person in the bureau, can't be confused, this matter is obviously not over, and if he is pitted again, he is stupid.

Yan Kaiting hadn't talked to Fu Mingxuan in detail about this matter, and when he asked, he told him what happened before Fu Mingxuan arrived.

The latter thing is not complicated to say.

At present, it seems that it is the "Glaive Sect" that has lost important goods, and the cadres led by the "Blood Spear" can't find the culprit, and somehow they hook up with Hu Donglai, and both sides have their own needs, and they hit it off.

The reason why Yan Kaiting was found was not only to pay compensation for someone to take the blame, but also to be able to compensate for the shipment.

The "Glaive Sect" is not a big sect that can be sent casually with money. The batch of goods they lost was a special magic artifact embryo, using the "Wansha Star Meteorite", this material comes from the fragments of extraterrestrial stars, which is not particularly rare, but it has extremely high requirements for the embryo-making process, and it is not something that can be done by any workshop.

Although the "Heavenly Craftsman" is a non-monk craftsman's house, it is a century-old shop, with a profound heritage, and the embryo-making process is more than the general monk's workshop, which is famous in the industry. If you want to make up for the physical object of the "Glaive Sect", and the original monk's workshop can't move the schedule, "Tiangong Kaiwu" may be the best substitute choice in the Yongzhou realm.

However, when you look into it, it's not that simple.

The most suspicious thing is the scene of the "Golden Boat", what Yan Kaiting saw with his own eyes, it was indeed very similar to being smashed open by a large blunt object with the power of thunder and fire. It is said that the large treasure ships that carry goods are also disconnected. In this way, even if the "Selling Golden Boat" is artificially set up, Yan Kaiting still can't get rid of the suspicion on the side of the cargo ship.

Xia Pingsheng went to talk to Xiang Ying and the result was the same.

"Blood Spear" insisted that he was investigating all the suspects with the power of thunder and fire, but the methods used were not very glorious. Everyone knows that this strong man who was born as a water thief is not a good man and a woman, and it is common to arrest people to extract confessions, and it is not uncommon for innocent people to be harmed.

In the end, Tan Xiang Ying only took a small step back, promising that since Yan Kaiting was the proprietor of Xia Pingsheng, he would act according to the rules in the future. But if this case has been unsolved, if the "Glaive Sect" sends someone to ask in person, it will be useless to save anyone's face.

Although Xia Pingsheng explained the negotiation process in detail to Yan Kaiting, he showed his mouth in front of the three managers. The purpose is naturally to warn them not to do superfluous things, if they alarm such a behemoth as the "Glaive Sect", the entire Yujing City will not be able to get rid of it at that time.

Yan Kaiting heard Fu Mingxuan say this, and couldn't help but laugh sarcastically: "This thing is really strange! You can't do it for the sake of harming me, Hu Donglai has the courage to really rob the treasure ship of the 'Glaive Sect', right?"

Fu Mingxuan didn't smile, and said thoughtfully: "Then it depends on who else is behind him?"

Yan Kaiting was taken aback, he originally took this as a joke.

No matter how you say it, "Heavenly Creation" is just a local non-monk craftsman's house, and no matter how good the low-end products are, the value of high-end magic weapons is limited if they can't be produced. In order to seize power internally, to climb a powerful sect like the "Glaive Sect" to kill people with a knife, I am afraid that the benefits of the entire craftsman mansion will not be enough, right?

Yan Kaiting suddenly sat up, frowned, and said, "That's right! And Shen Boyan! Are the people behind Hu Donglai crazy? 'Glaive Sect' is not enough, and you still want to directly climb the 'Yuanhui Gate'?!"

Fu Mingxuan shook his head and said, "Shen Boyan's matter is more like a coincidence. ”

The more Yan Kaiting thought about it, the more angry he became, and said: "No matter who is in charge of the game behind the scenes, one person or a group of people, the heart is quite big, this is not two birds with one stone, but countless birds with one stone." I didn't know that 'Heavenly Creation' was so valuable. ”

Fu Mingxuan said thoughtfully: "This kind of twisting and turning method is indeed a bit familiar, but are you underestimating the Yan family's accumulation of hundreds of years?" ”

Yan Kaiting was stunned.

"Perhaps, you should really think about where you and the 'Heavenly Creation' should go. ”

Yan Kaiting stayed for a while, then leaned back and lay down, and after a long time, he said what he had never said to anyone, "Actually, the craftsman's mansion is very unfamiliar to me, and I don't know what to do with it." ”

Fu Mingxuan nodded understandingly, although this sound very unmotivated, but it couldn't be more true.

When the old mansion master was there, Yan Kaiting had little chance to contact the operation of the craftsman's mansion. After he became the lord of the mansion, people like Hu Donglai had already grown up, and there was not one old man in Mrs. Yan's era. If it weren't for the fact that "Tai Chu" recognized Yan Kaiting as the main court and established the legitimacy of the Yan bloodline, I am afraid that even if Xia Pingsheng was in charge, the "Heavenly Creation" would have been torn apart.

"But you hold the 'Taichu', you are the master of the 'Heavenly Creation', and you can only make your own decisions. ”

A purple lightning flashed, and the phantom of the "Taichu Hammer" slowly emerged, and it was half-empty and half-solid in front of the two of them.

Yan Kaiting stretched out his finger and poked the head of the sledgehammer. The lightning-like purple streamer swam around the hammer body, clearly extinguishing the esoteric and indescribable lines.

Soon an opportunity to make a decision arose.

Even though most people agree that civil strife is not appropriate on the eve of "Demon Hour", for some people who are not afraid of monster invasion, it is just something that ordinary people need to worry about.

Early the next morning, Yan Fu hurriedly sent someone to find Yan for court. Just last night, the workshop of the Craftsman's Mansion in an affiliated town outside Yujing City was attacked, and although there were no casualties, the facilities were badly damaged.

The workshop did not report the cause of the attack in detail, but only asked the owner to go there in person.
