Chapter 69: Intrigues
It was Xia Zhongying who hurriedly called Xia Junhou back, and he invited Xia Junhou to an extremely secret place, which made Xia Junhou feel very puzzled, what made the senior brother so cautious.
In the secret room, Xia Zhongying's frowning team Xia Junhou said, "Senior brother, do you still remember the task given to us by the master ten years ago?"
"Of course I remember, what's wrong?" asked Xia Junhou as he pretended not to know anything, and at the same time he thought to himself, "Senior Brother also found out? Does he know that I took the woman away?" ”
Xia Zhongying thought for a moment and said: "Yesterday, I suddenly found that the torch eye magic weapon had a reaction, but at that time, I was in the Tianwei Hall and the fifth junior brother together to arrange the defense of the Tianwei Army, and after I withdrew, I found that the person the master was looking for was near the Tianwei Palace, and I did not delete it in the inner hall of the Tianwei Palace, and thousands of people outside the Tianwei Hall did not have time, but not long ago, I actually found that the person had disappeared? ”
After listening to this, Xia Junhou also pondered for a moment and said: "I haven't taken the torch magic weapon given by the master with me since I came back, as for the other abnormalities, I caught a stealing woman today, and I interrogated her and found that she didn't have the strength to steal in the Tianwei Palace, so I let it go." ”
"What kind of woman?" Xia Zhongying asked.
"An ordinary Zhurong clansman. Xia Junhou said nonchalantly.
"Zhu Rong, they are still near the Tianwei Palace, and they have never moved around these days. Xia Zhongying muttered.
Xia Junhou asked rhetorically: "Senior brother, will other people also notice this matter?" ”
Wake up the dreamer with a word, why didn't Xia Zhongying take this into account, so he said word by word: "That witch disappeared out of thin air back then, will it be like that back then?"
"Everyone knows in their hearts what happened back then, the fifth senior brother took the female demon head and exchanged it for Ji Shuai's corpse, but this matter is mostly due to the arrangement of the emperor, so no one dares to bring it up, and now if the old skills are from Shi, how good is it, we can't be so passive anymore. Xia Junhou said to Xia Zhongying.
Unconsciously, Xia Junhou shifted Senior Brother's thoughts to the Fifth Senior Brother, as if in his opinion, this was almost, if Senior Brother really cared about this matter, then he would stare at the Fifth Senior Brother, maybe there would be an unexpected gain.
At this time, Xia Zhongying said: "Since this is the case, I will disturb the fourth junior brother, then I will go to the Tianwei Hall first." ”
"It doesn't matter. Xia Junhou said with a smile.
After the two separated, Xia Zhongying thought that today he heard that a magic weapon was lost in Tianwei Palace, and then it was quickly recovered by Xia Yan, but what he knew was that the mortal was taken into the hands of Xia Junhou, but he didn't let her go anymore, and these four junior disciples could no longer be partners.
Xia Junhou did one thing immediately after leaving, that is, he recruited Xia Yan to make an announcement that the people of the Zhu Rong clan had not stolen any items, and the arrested suspects had been released and left.
Then he personally went to the patriarch of the Zhurong clan to inform the scorn that the woman who was arrested had left, which made the scorn confused, and the peck merchant did not tell him, seeing that the scorn had doubts, Xia Junhou said with a smile: "When she left, she said that she never wanted to set foot in the holy capital again, and we blamed us for this, so I hope that the patriarch, you must not take it to heart." ”
Seeing that Xia Junhou said this, he couldn't say anything anymore, and after Xia Junhou left, he hurriedly sent a note to the, but there was no response, which made him feel uneasy.
Xia Zhongying knew that Tianwei Jun had made an announcement not long ago, and he understood in his heart, worthy of being the fourth junior brother of Zhizhi, originally Xia Zhongying planned to inform him of this when he met with the fifth junior brother at night, and let the fifth junior brother intervene as the emperor of heaven, so that Xia Junhou's lies would be self-defeating, but he had thought that this fourth junior brother had made preparations first, so Xia Zhongying had seven points of feeling that the person was hidden by him, but what he didn't expect was that the died not long ago.
The scorn was very uneasy about the, so he asked some of the children of the clan to leave first, and while constantly sending notes to the, he had to prevent some accidents.
Not long after the Zhurong clan left, Xia Junhou found Xia Zhongying, he glanced at Xia Zhongying, and the two came to the secret room again.
"I have a bold assumption. Xia Junhou said.
Xia Zhongying thought to herself: "What tricks do you want to play?" But he said seriously: "Oh? ”
Xia Junhou said: "Just now, there were almost ordinary people from the Zhurong clan who left. ”
"So what?" Xia Zhongying asked puzzled.
"If that person is the one I caught by mistake, she will leave the holy capital after I let her go, so that it can be explained that the person's deterrence suddenly disappeared, the torch eye magic weapon is only effective at a distance of 100 zhang, if he leaves, he will not be able to detect it, and the people of the Zhurong clan feel the danger, so they send some people to protect her, so that everything can be explained. Xia Junhou said thoughtfully.
"You really let her go?" Xia Zhongying said as he looked at Xia Junhou.
"It's true. Xia Junhou said.
Xia Junhou found that his lie had a big weakness when he left and was lost, that is, Xia Zhongying was now working in Tianwei Palace, so he hurriedly issued an announcement, he didn't plan to hide Xia Zhongying, but the departure of a part of the Zhurong clan created an opportunity for him, so he came to Dao Xia Zhongying for the first time to perfect his lie, and it seemed that Xia Zhongying was also moved by this explanation.
"Could it be that I misunderstood the fourth junior brother earlier?" he thought, but the words of the fourth junior brother cannot be fully believed or disbelieved, so let's make preparations with both hands.
"What is the best thing to do now, what is your plan?" Xia Zhongying asked.
"I intend to send reliable henchmen to follow the people who have left Zhu Rong's family, as long as it is that person, we will definitely be able to find him out. Xia Junhou said.
"Only look at it this way first. Xia Zhongying said.
The two left the secret room again, Xia Junhou took advantage of the convenience of doing things in Tianwei Hall at this time, and quietly mobilized some scouts to track down Zhu Rong's clan, no matter what the result was, he could have a reason to explain, and he sent one of his very capable scouts to pay attention to Xia Junhou's every move, and at the same time, he also asked people to inquire about the cause and effect of today's theft.
After he understood the whole story of the so-called theft, he leaned towards Xia Junhou to hide the person, so he sent out a transmission note, and at the same time, the two Su brothers who were far away in Yanzhou took action.
There are three days to the canonization ceremony of the Emperor of Heaven, at this time there is another group of people in the holy capital, they are all sent from various clans, the canonization ceremony came too suddenly, how can it not be said that some treasures are not offered on the ceremony, so each clan sent a message to the clan as soon as they learned the news, and each clan also prepared a congratulatory gift of sufficient weight after receiving the news to send it to the holy capital again.
