The territory of the Great Qian, the territory is vast, east to the Canghai, north to the barren hills, west to the desert soil, south to the ancient mountains.

Shenzong descended, divided the world into Kyushu, and established a state capital.

Liangzhou General Division, ancient extraordinary.

As the feudal official of the military and political affairs of the commander-in-chief, Li Mo heard this name for the first time, but he felt extremely familiar.

"Ancient extraordinary...... Gu Pingfan...... These two won't ......"

Li Mo muttered softly, and couldn't help but look at Gu Changan.

The name of the master of Hongmen is Gu Pingfan, and the name of the general department of Liangzhou is Gu Feifan.

These two people, one is the lord of Hongmen, one of the eight gates of Xuantian Pavilion, and the other is a feudal official in Liangzhou, comparable to the local emperor.

The names are so similar, Li Mo doesn't think there is such a coincidence in the world.

"You guessed that, too."

Gu Changan nodded, and said in a deep voice: "We, the head of the department, and the master of the Hongmen Sect are the closest brothers of the same mother. ”

"He is the second oldest in the family, and those high-ranking families in Liangzhou call him Gu Er behind their backs."

"It turns out that he is the younger brother of the door master......" Li Mo heard this, and his expression was a lot more relaxed.

Counting, he is also a disciple of Hongmen, and he was selected by Gu Pingfan after the selection and assessment of the world's sects.

Later, when he entered Hongmen, he received a lot of support and care from the master, and he could be called half of his own person.

"I advise you not to be so happy just yet."

Gu Changan looked at the expression on Li Mo's face and couldn't help but remind.

"What do you mean?"

"Brother is brother, brother is brother...... Our Lord General is not the master of the Hongmen...... And I've heard that they haven't been in touch for years. Gu Changan said lightly.

"What? Is there a rift between their brothers? Li Mo was interested and couldn't help asking.

"I don't know about this......"

Gu Changan shook his head, speaking of which, after all, he was just a small official who was sticking to Qingchan City, compared with a feudal official like Gu Feifei, there were still many levels in the middle, how could he know the secrets of the other party.

"I just heard that eighteen years ago, the three of them were in the Xuantian Pavilion in the capital together...... After that year, the trajectories of their respective fates began to change and they took different paths...... Gu Er left the capital and went away......"

"Three brothers!?" Li Mo was stunned for a moment and interrupted Gu Changan's words.

"Yes, they are three brothers, Gu Pingfan, the master of Hongmen, is the elder brother, and Gu Pingfan, the general secretary of Liangzhou, is the second...... I heard that there is also a youngest brother...... Back then, in the Xuantian Pavilion, he had the highest talent, and he was even more dazzling than his two elder brothers. ”

Gu Changan whispered.

In the officialdom, you can't have no understanding of the situation of your boss, otherwise you will accidentally commit a taboo one day and you won't know how to die.

Just these unconfirmed rumors were bought by him for real money.

"And what about the third child in their family!?" Li Mo couldn't help but ask.

The eldest who is still less talented has become the lord of Hongmen, and the second has become the general director of Liangzhou......

Among the three brothers, the third with the highest talent should also have some achievements.

I have to say that this family doesn't know how to give birth, the ancestral grave is on fire, and the seeds born are so outstanding that it is unimaginable.

"I don't know...... It seems that there is no such person, and no one in the officialdom has ever mentioned it...... It is rumored that the youngest of the Gu family has long since died...... Died in the fire in the capital eighteen years ago......"

"Eighteen years ago, the fire shone on the ...... of the Jingshi," Li Mo muttered to himself, thoughtful.

"What do you think?"

Gu Changan's voice pulled Li Mo's thoughts back.

"I didn't expect them to have so many secrets in their house...... If you sell it to the tabloids of the Justice Book Company, you will definitely make a lot of money. Li Mo grinned and smiled casually.

Ordinary people are still very interested in the privacy of these big people, especially when it comes to peach color and ethics, and they are simply curious.

Any adult who has a son can talk on the streets for half a month, let alone this kind of fierce material.

"If you want to die, don't drag me along." Gu Changan glanced at Li Mo and said lightly.

"Liangzhou is not as good as the capital...... There are many nobles in the capital, and there are many rules...... Over here...... The official of the feudal territory is the emperor of the soil...... Spit and foam can drown a group of people......"

The Liangzhou General Division can use many more means than the Hongmen Sect Master, and the most important thing is that the bottom line to be observed by the two is different, and the constraints are also different.

To put it mildly, just talking about Gu Er's means of accumulating money, the Hongmen master couldn't catch up with him crying.

At the mention of accumulating wealth, Li Mo's eyes couldn't help but light up.

"How much did he catch!?"

"Can you tell me how much he caught?" Gu Changan was a little speechless and said, "Let's just say that, have you seen my business in the city?" ”

"Dead?"

Li Mo remembered the funeral parlor located in [Touqi Road], which was doing funeral business on the surface, but secretly it was also doing tomb robbery.

Gu Changan resold the treasures stolen from the barren hill tomb through [Is it dead], and there was a free income every year.

Because of this, his [Great Dream Ten Thousand Ancient Skills] can be cultivated smoothly, otherwise if he cultivates such a mystical skill, he would have already gone to buy pants.

"Ming told you that the business there is only 30% of the net profit."

"Huh!?" Li Mo was stunned for a moment: "Who will take the big head?" ”

"Upper, of course."

Gu Changan raised his hand and said, "Do you think that in the 100,000 barren hills in the north, anyone who comes to find a piece of land can be buried?" ”

"There is no need for formalities for land approval? Do you need to buy or sell land? In addition to this, there are various taxes...... Which one doesn't need to be dotted? ”

"It's still business on the surface...... Steal...... Archaeological excavated treasures, don't go up and down, you want to flow into the market? ”

Speaking of this, Gu Changan couldn't help sneering: "You release it the first day, and you will squat in the bitter kiln the next day." ”

"This kind of business can only be safe and secure if the top and bottom are tied to a line of interest."

At this point, Gu Changan approached Li Mo and whispered, "The big head in this must have fallen into the hands of the General Director...... But he didn't know it yet. ”

"I don't know!?"

"How big is the boundary of Liangzhou? What is Toad City? My little profit is insignificant to him, and the people at the bottom will do it...... But he doesn't know, you can't help but give ...... Otherwise, if something happens in the future, you will have to ask for more blessings for yourself......"

Gu Changan has been in the officialdom for many years, and he has done a lot of things openly and secretly, and he knows the way out.

Third-rate business relies on money, second-rate business relies on resources, and first-class business relies on connections.

"The avenue is all in it......"

At this moment, Gu Changan seemed unfathomable, making Li Mo feel that this thing was shining.

"Sure enough, the avenue is everywhere...... Talent. ”

Li Mo sighed leisurely, changed his words, and suddenly asked, "Why did you take me with you when you went to the state capital to report on your work?" ”

Gu Changan was summoned because of the destruction of Poison King Mountain, and it stands to reason that it should have nothing to do with Li Mo, and he can't be piggybacked.

"It doesn't matter if you know it yourself."

Gu Changan glanced at him, before Li Mo arrived, Qingchan City could be called a smooth wind and rain, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment.

But ever since he came, the chaos has not stopped.

"You were originally a grass standard official issued by the imperial court, and you have a record in the state capital...... It's normal to call you over. Gu Changan said casually.

After all, in the eyes of the state government, the grass standard Lang official is still a guilty person, and every once in a while, it should be reviewed according to the rules.

"When are you leaving?" Li Mo groaned for a moment and asked.

"Early tomorrow morning."

Gu Changan has already made all the preparations, and it is just a notice to ask Li Mo to come over today.

……

That night, Li Mo returned to Biyouju and made arrangements.

When he went out this time, he only brought the understanding pipa, and the other demons and ghosts all stayed in Qingchan City.

The main reason is that Xie Pipa has a special identity, after all, she was the owner of the Poison King Mountain before, the owner of the bottomless pit, and it just happened, and Li Mo was not too relieved about her.

The most important thing is that the atmosphere in Biyouju has been delicate recently, especially Zhu Gangguan, who has maintained a deep hostility towards this newcomer.

Li Mo was afraid that he would not be there, in case of chaos, no one would be able to suppress them, and when he came back, Qingchan City would be gone.

You must know that at the beginning, this group of goods even dared to rob and kill the masters of Yulongtai, and that was the royal internal guard.

"Come with me to [Jiujiang Mansion] this time and talk as little as possible, you know?"

In the early morning, as soon as the east showed a touch of fish belly white, Li Mo waited at the city gate with Xie Pipa.

Taking advantage of the fact that Gu Changan hadn't come yet, he didn't forget to advise.

"Hmm!"

Xie Pipa still seemed silent, but nodded obediently.

"Say um, don't say um!" Li Mo glanced at it and corrected.

"Uh-huh!"

"Long waiting!"

At this moment, a shout came from a distance, pulling Li Mo's gaze over.

Gu Changan was late, but under his crotch was a strange-looking foal, compared to ordinary good horses, his body was as strong as a baby elephant, his white fur was only a little variegated, his eyes were scarlet, and the breath he exhaled was extremely heavy, causing the air to rattle.

"Elephant-maned horse!" Li Mo whispered.

There are many good horses in Liangzhou, most of them are hybridized with demons, and the bloodline is improved, and some are eaten by the essence of the mountain, passed down from generation to generation, and become a special stallion.

Therefore, the wealthy families in Liangzhou mostly take riding horses for pleasure, raising heterobred horses, and gambling blood, which has become the life and game of the upper class nobles.

The elephant-maned horse has a name on the famous [Baoju Lu] in Liangzhou.

It is said that this horse is tall, only needs to be fed once a month, but the amount of food is amazing, often need to use soybeans, wheat bran, ginseng slices accompanied by eggs, each meal has to consume hundreds of pounds of food, run up, can travel thousands of miles a day, and extremely humane.

Just one elephant-maned horse is enough to exchange for ten courtyards where Li Mo lives now, and even more than that.

"Jiujiang Mansion is a long way away, have you ever used horseback riding?" Li Mo couldn't help but say.

According to their ability, they can fly directly in the air, and it only takes half a day to arrive.

"Don't worry, the official document says that you can ...... when you arrive in seven days" Gu Changan waved his hand and said: "You can also see the scenery along the way, which is much better than Jiujiang Mansion." ”

"Huh!?"

At this moment, Gu Changan's gaze had already fallen on the body of the pipa, and a touch of brilliance could not help but swell in his deep eyes.

"Lao Li, when did you have an extra beauty by your side?"

"When you're away from home, can't you take a maidservant with you?" Li Mo said casually.

"You really don't treat yourself badly."

Gu Changan couldn't help but look at the pipa twice, and the latter stood silently behind Li Mo, without saying a word, trying his best to implement Li Mo's advice, reducing his sense of existence.

In this regard, Gu Changan didn't think much about it, but fortunately, he prepared three [elephant-maned horses], just one for each person.

"Why do you have three horses?" Li Mo glanced at it and couldn't help but ask, he hadn't said in advance that he would bring one more person.

"Isn't that right?"

"Forget it, let's hit the road."

As he spoke, Li Mo jumped and jumped on the back of the [Elephant Mane Horse], this thing naturally cannot be compared to the experience of riding Kuigang.

Fortunately, the Elephant's Mane is tall, and it is stable to sit on, and the comfort is better than that of ordinary foals.

"Lao Li, what do you say about this debriefing?"

On the way, Gu Changan finally remembered what was going on, and couldn't help but talk to Li Moxu.

In the 100,000 barren hills in the north, the Poison King Mountain is not an ordinary mountain, the Nine Poisonous Ancient Scorpions are the existence of the Great Demon level, and under the command of the Young Corpse Lord, it can be regarded as the descendant of the [Northern Demon Xuanzhuang].

The most important thing is that this scorpion escaped from the ruins, and it is the target of the Xuantian Pavilion's key monitoring.

Now, overnight, the entire Poison King Mountain is gone, the scorpion is nowhere to be found, and there is no one alive in the bottomless pit.

This thing is too strange, Qingchan City is the closest to Poison King Mountain, if there is no information, it is indeed a little unreasonable.

But the problem is that Gu Changan really doesn't know the inside story.

"How do I know what you're talking about? I don't know what happened to me! Li Mo also muttered in his heart.

"Earlier, I had heard of the scorpion skills of the Poison King Mountain, and it was quite powerful, why did it make people serve it in one pot? The waste is so far, it really doesn't live up to its name. Gu Changan sighed.

It didn't matter if the scorpion was taken by someone, it hurt to put all the pressure on his head.

"Ahem......" Li Mo turned his head and looked at the scenery along the road, as if he hadn't heard it.

"Who the hell did you say? has such ability, it is really idle to step on the horse. ”

Gu Changan smacked his mouth and looked at Li Mo: "You really don't know the inside story?" ”

"You just said I did it, it's okay." Li Mo said casually.

"No kidding, I'll tell you the right thing!!"

Gu Changan raised his eyebrows and said unhappily: "You said that the scorpion in Poison King Mountain is dead or alive now!? ”

"This ......"

"That scorpion is a big demon...... I heard that the bloodline is special, maybe someone has made it into medicinal wine...... It should be very nourishing......"

Gu Changan speculated: "It is also possible that the skewers are ...... I've heard that roasted scorpions are the most fragrant and crispy, and they also have the effect of raising guns......"

As he spoke, Gu Changan squeezed his eyebrows at Li Mo and smiled.

Airplanes......

At this moment, he didn't notice at all that behind him, a scarlet hook tail stood up and poked at the back of his head.
