Under the escort of Xu Sheng, the five of Qian Chao returned all the way back to the Five Spirits Sect.

Tang Bonian is in his own cave house, he is the most famous winemaker in the Five Spirits Sect, proficient in the brewing method of various spirit wines, at this time in a wine cellar watching his disciples in rows of wine jars busy, here the rich aroma of wine is like a winter fog pervasive, intoxicating, there are disciples on the side with bamboo wine cups from the wine jar out of some rich wine syrup, respectfully handed to him, Tang Bonian tasted a little to know how the quality of the jar of spirit wine, just when he was talking with the disciples, A voice came from there at the door of the cellar:

"Master."

Turning his face, he saw that Xu Sheng was saluting him at the door of the wine cellar, and then a small head stretched out horizontally against the door frame, looking at the rows of wine jars in the wine cellar with bright eyes, it was not someone else, it was his baby granddaughter Tang Ping.

"Wow! Sixth Grandpa, you still have a wine cellar here! I didn't know it before, but it smells so good...... A lot of wine ......"

Tang Ping said with envy, and then jumped out and was about to walk into the wine cellar.

When Tang Bonian saw this, he hurriedly said to a few disciples:

"Quick...... Fast! Stop her and don't let her in, or anything you lose here will be counted on your heads!" ”

There are no disciples of Tang Bonian who don't know Tang Ping, almost everyone has suffered her loss, even Xu Sheng on the side, before Tang Ping came to the Five Spirits Sect, these disciples of Tang Bonian only do two things on weekdays, one is to practice, the other is to help the master make wine, and after Tang Ping came to the Five Spirits Sect, they will have one more thing, that is, beware of this little girl to steal things. Therefore, Tang Bonian gave an order, and several people who were busy in the wine cellar immediately blocked Tang Ping outside the door of the wine cellar with a smile.

"Hey, you old man, you're so stingy, can't your granddaughter even look at it?" Tang Ping said angrily.

"Hmph, if you come less, you will have one less jar if you take a look, the wine in my cellar is all aged and refined, and the treasure is very good!" Tang Bonian also replied unceremoniously.

Tang Ping was so angry that he said "stingy ghost" and turned around and left, and then listened to Tang Bonian in the back complaining about Xu Sheng:

"You too, it's okay to bring her here for something."

"Uh...... Master, my brothers and sisters are all here, and I can't find you, so I can only find here. ”

Not long after, in the room in Tang Bonian's cave mansion, Tang Bonian sat behind the bookcase and filled the cigarette pouch with tobacco, looked at Tang Ping, who was still a little angry, and asked:

"What about the loose cultivator called Zuo You, why didn't you bring him with you?"

"Let it go!" Tang Ping said angrily.

"Hmph, at a young age, you actually made friends with casual cultivators, do you know that most of the casual cultivators are treacherous and deceitful? You are inexperienced and deceived by him, and if you let him go, you may have endless troubles! ”

"Hmph, is it possible that the children of the family and the sect are all noble and flawless?"

Saying that, Tang Ping also slapped a stack of papers on Tang Bonian's bookcase.

Xu Sheng stood on the side, although he received the news from Tang Bonian that he wanted him to escort Tang Ping's five little guys all the way back to the Five Spirits Sect, but Xu Sheng was a cautious person, he didn't ask what he shouldn't ask, and only did his own thing, so he didn't know what was going on, as soon as he heard the master say that Tang Ping had made friends with loose cultivators, he immediately heard Tang Ping's rebuttal, and threw a bunch of things on the bookcase, so he squinted and looked over, it turned out to be a pile of paper with portraits, and immediately Xu Sheng understood that these were all pictures and figures in the cultivation world, The characters drawn on each piece of paper were rewarded for some kind of evil deeds, and then he further figured out that the characters drawn on the paper must have been sent to the Five Spirits Sect by their respective families two or three months ago because they were going to participate in next year's Chengguan Grace Test.

Tang Ping continued:

"The dignified Five Spirits Sect, located in the south of the Central Continent, the disciples in the sect are uneven, and there are so many evil guys who have been sent to the Chengguan Grace Test every ten years, blatantly snatching the opportunity to apprentice with the disciples in the sect, and those who know will say that the Five Spirits Sect recruits talents in an eclectic manner, and those who don't know think that the Five Spirits Sect is a place to hide dirt and dirt!"

Tang Bonian couldn't say anything about her, and said angrily:

"You ...... shut up"

Then Tang Bonian flipped through the portraits in front of him, and took them with him and looked at the words under the portraits, all of which were records of his crimes, and the more he looked at them, the more he frowned, and simply pushed them with his hands and asked:

"What about the letters?"

"Here."

As she spoke, Tang Ping took all the letters that Zuo You handed over to them from the storage bag, along with the two maps, and put them on Tang Bonian's bookcase.

"It's all here?"

"Hmm."

"Did you search for him? What if he hides some......"

"Sixth grandfather, he almost lost his life because of these things, what are you doing with them, is there nothing to trouble yourself? Of course it's all here. ”

"Hmmm......"

Tang Bonian didn't say anything more, and took apart the letters and looked at them one by one.

After a short time, Tang Bonian's eyes moved away from the many letters and said:

"Well, I don't know what to say, a lot of letters haven't been named yet, how do you know who wrote them."

Tang Ping leaned over, pulled the paper with the previous drawings again, and said:

"Even if I don't know which family wrote to Wen Liang, but I can't escape the family behind these people, Zuo You killed these guys in the sect, and these letters were also obtained from their storage bags, but unfortunately he didn't know in advance that there would be these letters, and he only found out about these letters after the fact, so it was not good to compare each letter with these guys one by one, but if you investigate these families carefully, you will definitely be able to find out."

"Check ...... It's always going to be checked, but it's as simple as you say. ”

As he spoke, Tang Bonian looked at the two maps on the bookcase.

"Well, where exactly is it on this map?"

"I don't know."

"Isn't that kid good at these mountains and rivers? Don't even he know? ”、

"Sixth Grandpa," Tang Ping said in surprise, "How old are you, and what kind of cultivation are you, I'm afraid you haven't traveled to the place where our qi refining disciples often go out outside the sect, what age and cultivation are a few of us, I don't know where it is, isn't it too normal!" ”

Tang Bonian nodded, turned his head to Xu Sheng and said:

"Come, you take a closer look at all of this."

While Xu Sheng was reading those letters, Tang Ping also briefly told Xu Sheng what happened.

"See?" Tang Bonian asked.

"Got it." Xu Sheng replied.

"Well, now that you understand, you have to do two things, one is to check how many children of the family have come to our Five Spirits Sect recently in the name of participating in next year's Chengguan Grace Exam. Then, you're sending people out for a walk, spending more thought, looking for bounties like this outside, collecting more, and seeing how many of them have mixed into the Five Spirits Sect, and then hand them over to me together. Hmph, this is an offending thing, but always remind those guys with shallow eye sockets, don't just stare at the generous gifts given by others, only to accept a notorious scum as an apprentice! ”

"Yes."

Tang Bonian pointed to the dozen or so pictures on the bookcase and said:

"The second thing is that although these dozen or so people died in the hands of that loose cultivator, the one named Yan Jing escaped from the hands of the five of them, if you look at it this way, that Wen Liang will definitely receive the news, he will not give up, recently...... It won't be too quiet, and you have to be a little more careful with the people who come and go to our sect, well, and the people in Fuxuan Town, Xiangxuan Town, and Jixuan Town will be informed, but if there are suspicious characters, you must keep an eye on them, and you must not miss anything. ”

"Yes."

"Last but not least, we only have these few letters in our hands until now, and we don't know much about the rest, before we find out, this matter must be kept secret, and you and the people from the other three towns must make it clear."

"Yes."

"Now that it's clear, then you can go about it, this matter can't be solved for a while."

"Disciple understands."

After saying that, Xu Sheng saluted and left.

Only the two grandparents were left in the room.

Tang Bonian's cigarette pouch was still not finished, and he asked while fiddling with it:

"Did that kid Qian Chao say how Wen Liang would calculate our sect?"

"He has a guess, but it's just a guess, and these letters don't reveal any useful information at all, Qian Chao copied all these letters and maps carefully, saying that he may be able to use them in the future, he told me that what Wen Liang is secretly planning is likely to be related to the spiritual vein."

"Something to do with the spiritual veins?" Tang Bonian was a little thoughtful when he heard this.

"Well, that's what he said when he transcribed these letters, Sixth Grandfather, will Wen Liang want to change the direction of our spiritual veins here, our Five Spiritual Sect is the place where several major spiritual veins converge, if there is a change, it must be a big deal."

"How can it be so simple, you just said that he also drew this map in detail?"

"Hmm."

"Wait a minute."

After speaking, Tang Bonian got up and went to the inner room, and when he came out after a while, he held a thick booklet in his hand.

"Well, in my early years, I was also interested in the study of spiritual veins, but unfortunately, I put these down when there were more things later, but I did collect some distribution maps of the spiritual veins in this area of our Five Spirits Sect, all of which were from the early years, and now it is not easy to find this thing in the sect, and this is also a secret of our Five Spirits Sect, you tell Qian Chao, he can see this thing, but remember not to pass it on, this thing, maybe it can be of some use to him."

Tang Ping took the booklet and flipped through a few pages, then rolled her eyelids and asked:

"Are you planning to ask us little ones to do things again?"

"Hmph, this is called training, how can ordinary disciples have such an opportunity......

"Since it's about the safety of the sect, why don't you elders hurry up and investigate?"

"You have also seen that, with these letters, the most you can do is to beat some restless families, but what about gentleness? Still unfounded, do you think the old man didn't look for him? Hmph, you said it all, the old man didn't even manage to walk through the place where your qi refining disciples went in and out, such a large area, how could he easily find it if he hid anywhere? This matter will not come to light for a while, but you, if you are timid, return this booklet to me, you have broken that gentle thing, it is likely that the gentle will do something to you next, I think you should not go out recently, stay in the sect honestly! ”

As he spoke, Tang Bonian reached out and grabbed the booklet in Tang Ping's hand.

"Don't even think about it!" Tang Ping immediately put the booklet away, "By the way, what's wrong with that hook?" ”

"What else, naturally I will be locked up after asking, that kid is a waste, basically I don't know anything, but I told a lot of the bad things he had done before, and in a fit of anger, I asked people to take him into custody, and when I caught Wen Liang in the future, I will send him down at the same time."

"Oh, then I'll be fine, so I'll go back." Tang Ping stood up as she spoke.

"Wait, what happened to Mr. Zhuang in Ruixuan Town?"

"I don't know, I've never seen that person, but Qian Chao always goes to that teahouse, and he stays for a day, so I can't ask in detail."

Tang Bonian is also full of curiosity about Mr. Zhuang in Ruixuan Town, but the fun of this matter is that people who understand the cause and effect have to pretend to be confused, and those who are in the dark have already seen their minds.

"Well, okay."

"Sixth Grandpa, I think Qian Chao seems to have guessed something."

"Why?"

"No, just because that kid is smart enough, since I swore to you to keep the secret of his apprenticeship, for so long, even if I cover it up well, he will definitely be able to see something, what if he asks me about it?"

"That's what he asked, and you didn't say it on your own initiative, it doesn't count as you breaking your oath, but it also depends on how much he knows, if he doesn't know much or it's just an unfounded guess, you don't have to tell him to understand."

"Oh, okay then."

Walking out of Tang Bonian's cave, Tang Ping deliberately strode all the way out, but before she went far, she dodged and hid behind a low wall, and soon a golden figure jumped over alertly, it was Rhubarb, but at this time, Rhubarb was completely different from the fierceness when he usually helped Tang Ping defend against the enemy, not only a monkey's face was full of thief eyebrows, but also held a big wine jar in his arms, and soon another white shadow flashed over, it was Xiaobai, Xiaobai couldn't steal a whole jar of spirit wine like Rhubarb, However, there is also a jade-white delicate wine cup in his mouth, which is not ordinary at first glance!

Compared with the wine cup, Tang Ping took a fancy to the big jar of wine, and while staring at the wine jar and praising the rhubarb with a smile, she also complained that Xiaobai was not doing her job well, so she only stole a wine cup out.

It turned out that before Tang Ping entered Tang Bonian's cave mansion, he took advantage of the unpreparedness to release Rhubarb and Xiaobai, and instructed them to go to Tang Bonian's wine cellar to steal wine, and now these two little guys came to join Tang Ping, but Rhubarb saw Tang Ping at this time and was a little reluctant to hand over the wine jar in his arms, so angry that Tang Ping scolded a few words, and soon there was movement from Tang Bonian's cave mansion.

I heard Tang Bonian scolding hatefully there:

"Under-beaten thief! It's just a matter of stealing my wine, why did you steal my apricot blossom white jade cup......"

Tang Ping took the wine cup from Xiaobai's mouth in surprise, and understood that this was a good thing, otherwise his sixth grandfather who slammed the door would not be so angry, and then, the three little guys ran away.
