Early in the morning, after breakfast, Zhu Xiaoqi and others set off to go down the mountain. Yang Zifeng and Zhang Yu came to see them off in person.

"Father-in-law, I'll be with you another day. Standing on the edge of the playground, Zhu Xiaoqi glanced at the statue in the distance and said affectionately.

He liked this military camp very much, and he also liked this group of veterans of the Western Expeditionary Army, and Yang Zifeng's decision made him feel a little regretful in his heart. Daqing Mountain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the mountain should have complete military facilities, but it is an excellent training location. Regret is regret, but he can understand Yang Zifeng's decision. Although he and Gale killed the old wolf's head, they could only be regarded as a new force in Blackwater City, and it was still a little unrealistic to want to swallow the Qingshan Spirit at once. Although he showed his identity, the loyalty of the veterans to the commander does not mean that they will be loyal to him.

However, there are still a lot of gains from this trip. After learning his identity, Yang Zifeng did not hesitate to carry the black cauldron for him, and the matter of the old wolf's head could be pushed to the body of Qingshan Wandering Spirit for the time being. Secondly, with this relationship, this force, which is quite important in Blackwater City, has become his potential ally. He has already made it clear that although he does not know what choice they will make in the future, he will not touch them until the end.

"Zhang Yu, bring the things. Yang Zifeng commanded.

Zhang Yu stepped forward and held a brocade box in front of Zhu Xiaoqi. "A little bit of heart from the brothers of Daqingshan, please accept it. ”

"Thank you!" Zhu Xiaoqi took the brocade box with both hands and handed it to Cang Yuyao's hands.

"Welcome brothers to Fengling Town. Please speak up if you have something. He stretched out his hand towards Yang Zifeng and Zhang Yu and said sincerely.

"Definitely. The two shook his hand vigorously.

After leaving Daqingshan, Zhu Xiaoqi's expression became a little heavy. On the way down the mountain, some subtle changes in Daqingshan caught his attention. The time interval between the patrols had been shortened, the fortifications had been strengthened, and the expressions of the soldiers were not as relaxed as they had been when he came. At the same time, he also noticed some unusual circumstances: after Yang Zifeng learned that they planned to go down the mountain in the morning, he didn't even have a courtesy retention, and the four company commanders were no longer among the people who saw them off.

Daqingshan should have encountered something annoying, he sighed lightly in his heart.

"The atmosphere was a bit quirky. As he rode forward, Xuanyuan Yu looked back at Daqingshan and sighed softly.

"Yu Yao, look at what's in the box. Zhu Xiaoqi said to Cang Yuyao.

"Hmm. Cang Yuyao leaned over and took out the box from the saddle and opened it.

"Yu Yao ......" Hearing this title, looking at Cang Yuyao's docile appearance, Xuanyuan Yu felt sad for a while. Back then, the three of them left hell together and came out to mix, although he didn't dare to mess with Sister Cang, he could still ride on Zhu Xiaoqi's head. However, time has passed, and Zhu Xiaoqi will soon be able to ride on Sister Cang, should we live this day?

There was a stack of golden tickets in the box, and the seductive light of wealth made the eyes of the three of them shine. Cang Yuyao took out the neatly tied golden ticket, looked at it, and flicked it lightly with her thumb.

"Ten thousand gold coins each, about a hundred. ”

Zhu Xiaoqi couldn't help but gasp when he heard Cang Yuyao's words. This Yang Zifeng's shot is really not ordinary, and one million gold coins is not a small amount!

"It seems that your gold-lettered signboard still works, and this million gold coins may have hollowed out the family of the Qingshan Wandering Spirit. Cang Yuyao sighed lightly.

"Oh?" Zhu Xiaoqi looked at her in surprise.

"According to what I know, the Qingshan Wandering Spirit has earned a lot of income over the years, but the expenses are also quite amazing, and the money spent has always been tight, and the money for the purchase of weapons is usually on the account, and it will be settled at one time after a large order is made. I've been guessing what's inside with the brocade box just now, and I've been thinking about everything, but I didn't expect it to be a million gold coins. Yang Zifeng didn't take the Qingshan Wandering Spirit with you, I'm afraid there is another reason. Cang Yuyao lowered her head and looked thoughtfully at the golden ticket in her hand.

"Yu Yao, after returning to Fengling Town, you will pay close attention to the movements of Daqing Mountain for me, especially to pay attention to their material procurement. Zhu Xiaoqi commanded.

"Good. Cang Yuyao suddenly understood his thoughts.

"Xuanyuan, after you go back, hurry up and take the gale with you to familiarize yourself with the terrain around Daqing Mountain, especially to strengthen the training for night battles. ”

Xuanyuan Yu also nodded.

"Brother Daqingshan, let's meet again on the battlefield!" Zhu Xiaoqi raised his horsewhip and rode away.

Money is not important to Zhu Xiaoqi at this time. But the million gold coins that Qingshan Wandering Soul made up by emptying his family made him feel a deep friendship and warmth. From this point of view, Yang Zifeng's refusal was well-intentioned, and he just wanted to protect him. After receiving this heart, Zhu Xiaoqi also secretly made up his mind, he wanted to try to find out what trouble Daqingshan was in, do his best to keep this force, and reserve a seed for the Western Expeditionary Army.

Blackwater.

At the entrance of Ruilian Street, a small street in the southwest far away from the traditional area, there is a quiet independent courtyard. At dusk, two big men dressed in black tights flashed out from the corner of the street and quickly came to the front of the courtyard.

"Knock knock!" one of them raised his hand and knocked lightly on the door three times, and the door creaked open, and the two of them flashed into the courtyard, and the door was then closed.

After the two men in black entered the courtyard, they walked through the garden and came to a small three-story building with an antique taste.

"The eighth master has been waiting for you for a long time. In front of the stairs of the small building, a strong man who looked like a groom leaned sideways to make way for the two of them, signaling them to hurry upstairs.

The two went up to the third floor and walked into a suite. A beaded curtain divides the suite into two rooms, one large and one small.

"Eighth master, we're back. Standing in the small room outside, the two stood respectfully.

"Any news?" a lazy voice came from inside.

"Back to the eighth master, we have checked the two towns of Heishui and Yanxia, and no one has seen the person on the portrait. There is only Fengling Town left, we haven't gone yet, we have to wait for your orders. A big man in black replied.

"Well, it's been hard these days, so let's go down and rest first. I will arrange for you to recuperate in the Divine Residence for a few days in the near future. ”

"Eighth Master Xie!" the two big men replied with a happy face. They are lucky, the long-awaited happiness that has finally arrived.

Shortly after the two left, an obese middle-aged man with fair skin walked out of it and came to the balcony on the third floor.

"O wicked young man, when I find you, you will go to hell. Looking at the lights in the distance, a cold smile appeared on his face.

This city is a city full of sin for the world, but for him it is a city of wealth and dreams. Eighth Master, just his code name in front of that group of villain servants, he is the bishop appointed by the Divine Court, and the true master of Blackwater City.

As a bishop, he loves money more than the Lord of Love, and the unique soil of Blackwater City has allowed him to find a way to preach that perfectly blends the two. He poured the light of God's love on the city, allowing sinners to use their money to make amend their sins and to be reborn under His baptism and guidance. What a touching act of kindness the prodigal son did not change his money! In his loving eyes, only those who cut off his wealth are the most heinous sinners in this world. He believed that God, even if He was merciful, would not allow such sinners to live in this world.

As he walked down the stairs, a copper plate lying quietly on the stairs pierced his heart. He once again painfully remembered Xishan, remembered those lovely thousand-year-old spirit stones, and a small mountain made of gold coins suddenly flew away from his eyes with wings.

"It's all money!" he stooped down, picked up the plate, carefully blew off the dust, and then tugged it tightly in the palm of his hand with great pity.

"My lord, do you want to go back to church?" asked the groom at the top of the stairs as he descended the stairs.

"No, go to Smoky Town. He shook his head. Traffickers, it's time for you to atone for your sins, he said secretly in his heart.

A tightly curtained carriage quickly galloped out of the courtyard and headed for the town of Smoke.
