Chapter 51: Ahead of the schedule, a precursor to the main story
Zhi Huai brought up Li Yang's matter again at this time, seemingly talking about the 'Qizhou Thieves' back then, but in fact, it was intended to worship the Lunatic Sect.
In the last adventure mission, Li Sixing was able to get Zhi Huai to make a move, and deliberately revealed some of the arrangements of the Lunatic Cult in Beiming, but he did not have the opportunity to discuss it in detail at that time, and only used Lu Dong to convey it.
Now it seems that Zhihuai should have called himself here for this matter.
It's just that Li Sixing was a little surprised that Zhi Huai did not directly say anything about the Lunatic Cult, but continued to preach with Li Yang's matter: "With our intervention this time, what the Lunatic Sect wants should not be obtained, and it is not ruled out that they will return in the future." ”
"Don't hide it from Lord Qianhu, I do have this concern."
Li Sixing sorted out his thoughts a little, but now he is a little unsure of the purpose of Zhihuai calling himself here, how can he talk about a hammer in the east and a mallet in the west.
"Hmm."
Zhi Huai pondered for a moment, put down the teacup in his hand, but changed the topic and said: "In addition, the news that you asked Lu Dong to convey to me before, I have also reported it to the imperial court." ”
"The result?"
With a beating in his heart, Li Sixing's words couldn't help but carry a trace of solemnity.
He had heard about this matter from Lu Dong earlier, but Lu Dong didn't know the follow-up of this matter at that time, only that the imperial court should be screened, and now he finally wanted to know the follow-up progress of the matter here in Zhihuai.
To be honest, Li Sixing didn't know for a while whether he should hope that Jinyiwei would find out something, or whether he should hope that the Lunatic Cult would hide deep enough or simply not take action, so that Jinyiwei's side didn't find out anything.
The former may cause the Lunatic Cult's plan in Beiming to fall short, which will lead to the complete disappearance or change of this main mission of Beiming.
This is definitely not a good change for Li Sixing, he will no longer be able to use the memories of his previous life to dominate this main line, and the advantage of God's perspective brought by being a reborn person will also be lost in this main quest.
What's more, with the characteristics of the game "Heaven and Earth", a change in the main quest may cause a chain reaction, causing the entire world line to change......
"The hands and feet of the Lunatic Worship Sect are very clean, and the imperial court has only found some preliminary clues, so there are no specific gains."
Speaking of this, Zhi Huai's eagle-sharp eyes stared at Li Sixing, and he said meaningfully: "This matter is very hidden in the Lunatic Sect, even Jinyiwei has not been able to find out specific clues, I don't know if you think twice, where did you get the news, is it because of Li Yang and Li Jing's father and son?" ”
That's the purpose!
Li Sixing's face did not move, but he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, this question had already been thought of when he submitted the plan.
In addition, the result that Zhi Huai said should also be the best result for him at the moment.
Maintain the status quo, at least the wind that has been fanned by him this time will not change too many things, and he still has some advantages, at least for now.
"Do you recognize the man who teamed up with Zhi Qianhu against the Lunatic Deacon that night?"
"Is it the Wine Sword Immortal of the Shushan Sword Sect?"
Although there was a slightly questioning tone in Zhi Huai's words, Situ Zhong's identity should have been confirmed.
After all, Jinyiwei's intelligence network is not dry, although he and Situ Zhong did not have the slightest communication throughout the whole night, but the Shushan Sword Sect's signature swordsmanship is placed there, which is very conspicuous, after Jinyiwei's investigation, it is natural to find out who that person is that night.
"Yes, it is the true disciple of the Shushan Sword Sect, 'Wine Sword Immortal' Situ Zhong!"
Li Sixing nodded first, and then pondered his rhetoric and said: "Back then, Li Yang and his wife left the Northern Ming Dynasty for some reason and went to the Southern Song Dynasty. ”
"What I want to say is that in the Southern Song Dynasty, in addition to some conflicts with the Moon Worship Sect, Li Yang also became close friends with Situ Zhong of the Shushan Sword Sect, which is why Situ Zhong appeared in the Northern Ming Martial Arts."
"And the information I know so far is from Situ Zhong, saying that Li Yang accidentally found out from the Lunatic Worship Sect back then."
Zhi Huai bowed slightly, squinted his eyes and said thoughtfully: "In this way, your relationship with Situ Zhong seems to be good?" ”
"There are some friendships, mainly because Li Yang's only son, Li Jing, is currently from our Cunshan Gate."
Li Sixing smiled, but he didn't hide it, and directly brought Li Jing out as a shield.
This Zhihuai's gaze had not left his face since he began to speak, from the expression on his face to the look in his eyes, he observed very carefully, probably to see if he had anything to hide or lie about in this matter.
It's a pity that Li Sixing's demeanor and actions are very natural, even Zhihuai can't see any flaws.
In addition to Li Sixing's own psychological quality and excellent acting skills, the main thing is that he is not afraid of Jinyiwei to investigate this matter.
Not to mention Situ Zhong's own whereabouts, the Shushan Sword Sect and the Moon Worship Sect are both the top sects in the rivers and lakes, and they are far away in the Southern Song Dynasty, no matter how powerful Jinyiwei is, there is no way to go to the Southern Song Dynasty to let the two factions cooperate in the investigation of the case, right?
So this matter is really what Li Sixing said, so he is not afraid of others to check it, and others will not have to check it.
"Alright."
The slightly tense atmosphere in the pavilion suddenly relaxed, Zhi Huai picked up the teacup again, took a sip of tea and moistened his throat and said: "I called you here this time, mainly to remind you that the sudden actions of the imperial court will not be able to meet what the Moon Worship Sect will find, so it is eyeing you." ”
"This ......"
The expression on Li Sixing's face stiffened at the right time, and he looked a little flustered.
The stiffness was true, because what Zhi Huai said was indeed something he had not taken into account before.
The panic is fake, because the Lunatic Sect may not notice itself through this matter, after all, Shi Jie himself, as a deacon, is not sure whether he knows about this matter, how could the Lunatic Sect suspect him who is far away in Beiming?
Seeing the change in the demeanor on Li Sixing's face, Zhi Huai lowered his eyes and took another sip of tea and said: "You don't have to worry too much, my Jinyiwei will naturally follow up on this matter secretly, and I may need some help from you in the future." ”
"Naturally, there is no problem, if there is a need, the Lord of the Thousand Households can just tell you."
Li Sixing's thoughts flickered in his mind, and he realized a little in his heart, this is the precursor of the main quest?
Although it's good to be able to get in touch with the main quest as early as possible, but his progress is a little too advanced, you must know that this is the first version of the game, and it's a version without a main quest.
The progress of my own game is at least one version ahead of other players!
But speaking of which, his strength is indeed a hard injury, but fortunately, the main quest of the Lunatic Cult and Beiming will have to wait until the later version, and he will have some self-preservation power at that time.
It's just that when the time comes, you still have to plan well, with the strength of yourself and Fang Cunshan, or you don't participate, if you participate, it's better to turn passive into active and take the initiative.
