Chapter 384: Exploring the Foothills at Night

Yanmei thought for a moment and said suspiciously: "Sister Furong, there is some truth in your worries, but there are also confusing places. If we have a spy inside us, and he poisoned us yesterday, we will be wiped out. Why didn't he do it? ”

Fleur was stunned for a moment, she didn't think about this question, so she said: "Maybe he doesn't have a chance to do it, but we must be careful about this matter in the future." But we can't reveal it, otherwise people will panic, and we will be in chaos. ”

Yanmei said: "Then let Chanjuan and others be responsible for food safety, I can definitely trust them." In addition, the people of the whole Xiangmen will definitely hide, how can we find this gang of traitors? ”

Fleur was silent for a while, and said, "There are many of them, unless they are scattered and hidden, they will be discovered sooner or later." I have to think about how to do it. ”

Liu Shui said: "Their identities are now exposed, and their movements are restricted. We've also identified our opponents, and it's much better now than if we didn't know anything. Now that they have no public identity cover, it is difficult for them to make a big difference, and the county lord is relieved. Fleur, don't be in too much of a hurry. ”

Yanmei nodded and said, "Liu Shaoxia is right, I'll arrange for someone to investigate the whole city for a few days to see if I can find anything." ”

Liu Shui walked out of the main hall and saw Hongying patrolling with chrysanthemums and plum blossoms.

Liu Shui hurriedly walked over and said to Hongying: "You are also tired today, rest early." I'll just make the rounds. ”

Hongying smiled slightly and said, "I'm fine, what were you talking about just now?" ”

Liu Shui said: "Now that the people in Xiangmen have disappeared, Furong has not thought of any good way to find this group of people. ”

Liu Shui said as he pulled Hongying and sat on the stool next to him. After a busy day, the two of them didn't talk well.

Hongying leaned on Liu Shui and said, "This is indeed a troublesome matter, but I think that among the people who came today, there is a figure who seems to be the Taoist chief in Yunlu Palace." ”

Liu Shui told Hongying, and he also remembered that at the Lushan Conference that day, he and Quanxiangmen had a very tacit understanding. That's a clue, Liu Shui thought of this, and said: "Or you are careful, let's go and investigate secretly!" ”

Hongying nodded and said, "Okay, let's go take a look now." ”

The two got up, found Fleur and Yanmei, and voiced their suspicions. Fleur thought for a moment and said, "I'm going to go there and have a look, but you can only observe secretly, and you can't be discovered by them." ”

Liu Shui and Hongying immediately left the government and went straight to Lushan. The moon is bright and the breeze is blowing. The two of them mentioned light work, and soon arrived at the foot of the foothills.

Liu Shui and Hongying checked on the ground, and sure enough, they found that there were many footprints heading towards the mountain, so they followed the footprints all the way. Halfway up the mountain, it's hard to see the footprints. The two looked up and saw that it was not far from Lushan Temple. Liu Shui thought to himself that it must be the people of the whole Xiangmen who were afraid of alarming the Lushan Temple, so they scattered.

The two of them mentioned light work and were running towards the mountain. Suddenly, I heard someone shouting: "What kind of person, breaking into Yuelu Mountain at night?" ”

Liu Shui and Hongying hurriedly put away their light skills, stopped, and were on guard. At this time, three people jumped down from the big tree next to them, and Liu Shui took a closer look, and the leader was the master of Lushan Temple.

Liu Shui hurriedly said: "Junior Liu Shui, I have seen the master. ”

Master Lichen glanced at Liu Shui and said, "You are Liu Shui and Liu Shaoxia?" The donor made a direct admonition and asked for the people's life, and the poor monks admired it very much. The two of you came here late at night, what did you do? ”

Liu Shui replied respectfully: "Tonight, the bandits of the whole Xiangmen attacked the government office, and we will track down the whereabouts on the order of the county lord." I wonder if the master has found anything? ”

Master Lichen exclaimed: "We have also learned that someone attacked the government at night, but we didn't expect it to be someone from Quanxiangmen, this Quanxiangmen is really bold." We also heard that there was an accident in the city, so the abbot ordered us to step up our patrols to avoid accidents. Two hours ago, we did hear movement ahead, but since they didn't come to Lushan Temple, we didn't go after it. ”

Liu Shui briefly recounted the incident of the attack on the government and the boat from Xiangmen to the west bank of the Xiangjiang River, and said: "I estimate that this group of people is still hiding in the mountains. The juniors said goodbye and wanted to go up the mountain to investigate. ”

Master Lichen said: "Yuelu Mountain is so big, and it's night, it's only the two of you, how can you track it down?" Why don't you and I go into the temple and see the abbot, do you have any suggestions? ”

Liu Shui asked hesitantly, "Is it too abrupt to disturb Master Wuchen's retreat late at night?" ”

Lichen said, "It's okay. ”

Liu Shui thought for a while and said, "It's better to wait for us to go up and check, and then go to see you when we come down." I'm worried that the longer time passes, the harder it will be to track down the leads. ”

Lichen said: "In this case, the poor monk and the two of them will go and have a look." The poor monk is more familiar with this place than you, and I hope to help you track down these people. ”

Lichen was defeated by the people of the whole Xiangmen at the Lushan Conference, although the monks were indifferent to fame and fortune, but those who practiced martial arts inevitably had some guilt. At this moment, the whole Xiangmen is already a criminal, and he is willing to help him to uphold justice.

Liu Shui thought that he lived in the mountains all the year round and was very familiar with him, so he said, "Then there is Master Lao." Lichen explained a few words to the two people behind. The two monks turned around and went to Lushan Temple, and Liu Shui and the three of them came towards the top of the mountain.

After arriving at Yunlu Palace, Liu Shui and the three of them hid in the big tree and looked towards Yunlu Palace. Yunlu Palace is quiet, and there is nothing abnormal. Liu Shui and the three of them quietly approached the palace gate and flew up to the roof. I saw two people who looked like Taoist children patrolling the courtyard. The wings next to the main hall of the precincts are brightly lit.

Liu Shui thought to himself that since the Lushan Conference, many people have joined the Yunlu Palace, because it announced the creation of the sect. Someone was arranged to patrol so late at night, indicating that there must be something abnormal in the palace.

The three of them glanced at each other, and Liu Shui said softly: "You guys are here to monitor and answer, I'll go down and take a look." With that, he quietly descended from the roof.

Liu Shui used the cover of night to skillfully avoid the patrolling Taoists. Leaning against the wall, he jumped above the measurement, and seemed to hear someone talking in the wing. He was busy and listened attentively.

An old voice inside said, "Door master, are you sure they won't come here tonight?" Won't you search Yuelu Mountain on a large scale? ”

A young woman reassured the Taoist chief, saying that in her judgment, the government would not conduct a major search tonight. First, the movement is so big tonight that the whole Xiangmen is completely exposed. The government will naturally think that the people of Xiangmen will definitely flee in panic, and the farther away the better. That's why she decided to do the opposite, which must have been unexpected by the government.

The second is that the actions of the whole Xiangmen tonight will inevitably make the government suspect that there are spies inside, and the government will inevitably put its mind on the issue of finding out who is the spies. The third is that there is no loss in Quanxiangmen this time, and the people in the government will also worry that Quanxiangmen is using a strategy to divert the tiger from the mountain, and they dare not leave the government rashly.

The last point is that the people in the government should not be so quick to think that Yunlu Palace and Quanxiangmen are a family. Besides, if she is discovered by the people of the government, she also has a way to deal with it, so that the Taoist chief does not have to worry.

Liu Shui heard that the woman's voice was the Xiao Sect Master, and the old man's voice was the Yunlu Palace Daoist. They really went all the way, but I don't know if all of Xiangmen are here. Hearing that they were going to leave Tanzhou for Yuezhou at dawn, Liu Shui quietly retreated.

After Liu Shui saw Hongying and Lichen, he said softly: "The people from Quanxiangmen are really here, and they are ready to leave at dawn." Hongying, you hurry back and ask the county lord to bring people to surround this place. Time is very tight, go and go back quickly, otherwise it will be too late. I continue to stare here. Hongying agreed, turned around and left, and went straight to the mansion.

Lichen hurriedly said: "Young man, where can poor monks work effectively?" ”

Liu Shui said: "There is something I want to trouble the masters of Lushan Temple, but I think it is too troublesome for your temple." ”

Lichen said unhappily: "I also contribute to the stability of the rivers and lakes, and if you say anything troublesome, you can't help but underestimate this temple." ”

Liu Shui hurriedly said: "Master forgive me, I lost my words." I would like to ask the master to go back to your temple to gather people and search the rest of the places where people may be hiding in Yuelu Mountain. With the cunning of the whole Xiangmen, I estimate that the people of the whole Xiangmen will definitely be scattered and hidden, and they will not all be here. ”

Lichen said: "It's a trivial matter, I'll go back to the abbot and search everywhere immediately." We live here all year round, and if these people are hidden here, they will be found quickly. ”

Liu Shui said again: "Master remember, if you find clues, don't startle the snake. You only keep an eye on them, and when the lord of the county comes, you will catch them all, and then ask your temple to help. The dust should be accepted, retreat from the roof, and turn back to Lushan Temple.

Liu Shui saw that the light was still on in the wing, so he quietly touched it again and listened carefully. I heard the chief asking, "Does the master need to rest for a while?" Wait until dawn to act? ”

Xianglan said: "No, it's okay to be imprisoned in the secret room during the day, recuperate and recharge." However, this place may also be exposed, and you will have to leave with us. It's just that way, it's a pity that you've worked hard for many years. ”

The chief said: "Where the master of the door comes from, it is my duty to do my best for the king. I only hope that we can achieve great things, recover the beam as soon as possible, and live up to the trust of the master. ”

Xianglan said: "General Wang Jin is loyal and courageous, and he does not forget his old kindness, which is admirable. ”

The Taoist chief said, "Master Miaozan, this is a matter of duty. ”

Liu Shui listened to their conversation and realized that these people turned out to be Xiao Liang's former ministers, no wonder they were strong.

Xianglan said hatefully: "It's a pity that I was disturbed by that girl this time." I thought that the government had no real evidence to investigate, and I didn't dare to take people at will. Unexpectedly, as soon as the girl made a fuss, Wu Yanmei actually made a move and caught us off guard. ”

The Dao chief asked, "What is the origin of this Liu Shui and Furong?" The things that have sabotaged us several times, could it be that the court secretly arranged spies in the rivers and lakes? ”

Xianglan said: "They are not spies of the imperial court, then Liu Shui is a well-known person in the rivers and lakes. I knew that he had good martial arts skills, and I intended to recruit him, so I didn't kill him. Unexpectedly, he has become a big problem in our hearts now, and there will be no more tolerance in the future. ”
