The great victory of the Great Shang has elevated the reputation of the Book Saint to a terrifying status!

And the chief military officer was just a word of the saint, and the people and officers in Shanhaiguan took the initiative to sacrifice his head.

And the mountains of grain piled up in Shanhaiguan were sent back to Dashang by Shusheng.

After that, Dashang ushered in a five-year period of peace, and the people of the country were able to recuperate.

The northern pass has also ushered in a huge reshuffle.

Shusheng was commended by His Majesty the Emperor, and was exceptionally promoted to the then Prime Minister of Zuo.

Five years later, the Beiman, who had also regained some strength, went south again.

And this time, the northern city walls kept this group of northern barbarians out of the border pass.

Then for three whole years, the Northern Barbarian Iron Cavalry continued to detain the pass and go south.

Three years later, Shusheng fell ill and died, and the northern walls were breached.

The Northern Barbarian Iron Cavalry went south to burn and loot, and the horse's hooves once stepped outside the city of Nanjing.

And that was also the last days of Dashang.

Because of the invasion of the Northern Barbarians, the people of the whole country spontaneously formed a corps.

At the same time as the Northern Barbarians were expelled, the weakened dynasty of the Great Shang was finally overthrown.

A new dynasty is established.

There's not much to say about the history that follows.

However, this sage of books is regarded as his idol by everyone, especially by all readers.

And respectfully call it the book saint.

The books he wrote, the books he compiled, and his brilliant and brilliant short life are remembered by countless readers.

In the last days of that dynasty,

The book saint was the one who supported the building at that time.

He is the one who awakens the blood in the hearts of all Hermes-Epitek.

It is precisely because of his existence that after the fall of the Great Shang, so many people will stand up and expel the Northern Barbarian Iron Cavalry.

A new dynasty was established, a dynasty at its peak.

Great Xia was founded.

The Book Sage is enshrined as a saint for those who read.

Especially in the whole south, they enshrine the tablets of the book saints at home, especially the scholars, three times a day, respectfully.

And this tradition has been carried on to this day.

That is, the Great Sacrifice of the Book Saint.

During this period, scholars from all over the south will gather at the ancestral halls of books established in various places to hold a series of activities.

And the most important of them is, of course, the land of the South Seas, where these most powerful clans will gather together to worship the Book Saint.

This can be said to be a grand event for readers.

Especially under the current emperor's majesty and the policies of the previous emperor, the status of scholars has reached a rare trough in history.

For these readers, the Book Saint Festival is already one of the few grand events for them.

In recent years, the place where the Shusheng Festival has been held has become more and more grand, and this year is no different.

This year's home stadium will be played in Guangzhou City.

The lion dance competition is undoubtedly also a hot spot for this book saint festival.

At this moment, the clans of the entire South Sea Land will send their best young people, and the patriarchs of each family will lead their best young people to participate in this Shusheng Festival.

The arrival of the patriarchs is to show the importance that the major clans attach to this sacrifice, and the best young people represent the future of the major clans.

This was no ordinary sacrifice. There are a lot of ceremonies to be held before and after.

It can be said that the next long period of time was a time for the reading people to revel.

But for Liu Xin, he didn't care about these at all.

What he cares about most is Xiao Qi's disappearance.

Based on information transmitted back by the Covert Investigation Team.

Xiao Qi should have done something for Ma Dakui.

Because the information was transmitted urgently, there was no detailed information on it.

Liu Xin immediately asked Rokuro to quickly pack his bags.

As long as they waited for Fang Zihang to come back, they would immediately set off south to Guangzhou City.

And Fang Zihang also came back a little earlier than Liu Xin expected.

Therefore, the five people who were originally going to set off overnight became smoothly on the passenger ship heading south to Guangzhou City that afternoon.

Dugu Yueyue and Fan Sisi didn't know about the great changes that had taken place in Yongzhou City, and they were very dissatisfied with the three of them hiding from the two of them.

After boarding the passenger ship, the two women hid in the cabin and did not come out to see anyone.

Of course, this ship was prepared for them by Liu Xin and Wu Gonggong.

Knowing that Liu Xin was on a more important mission, Gonggong Wu used his connections to find this passenger ship for them.

Even those clans in the South China Sea can't investigate the details of this passenger ship, and it is absolutely safe!

From Yongzhou City to the south all the way along the river, it only takes two days and one night to reach Guangzhou City.

And Liu Xin did not rush to urge the passenger ship to speed up because of Xiao Qi's disappearance.

Instead, he seemed calm.

Of course, only Rokuro could see that Liu Xin's heart was actually very anxious, but he didn't show it.

Because even Rokuro knows that even if he is anxious, showing it will not have any substantive effect, so it is better to calm down and think carefully about what to do next.

And along the way, the intelligence of the covert investigation team was also sent back every now and then.

Through these constantly supplemented information, Liu Xin had a preliminary understanding of Guangzhou City and what Xiao Qi and Ma Dakui might encounter.

And on his desk, there have been several notes, which write about Xiao Qi and Ma Dakui's robbery, the case of Ma Dakui's brother, and the situation of Ma Dakui's mountain bandit force.

Some important names were also listed separately, and Liu Xin made extremely detailed notes next to their respective names.

Among them, one of the names that Liu Xin paid attention to was Sun Zhanshan!

In the two days and one night of going south, Fang Zihang also took the time to tell Liu Xin about Cai Jing's situation.

Regarding what Cai Jing said, Liu Xin directly expressed his denial.

"What Cai actually did at that time, the situation at that time was simply to take you down.

And if we assume that what Cai Jing said is true, then there is no need for him to arrest you, and even they don't need to slander you at that time, because they are all the people who have successfully cultivated the True Demon Skill.

They can completely say that the killing of the Black Knife Gate is a revenge of the enemy.

Because in that case, the dead man would not speak.

And the government doesn't care much about these things in the rivers and lakes.

So as long as they followed this rhetoric at that time, there was a high probability that a few of them would be able to continue to live as Black Knife Gate.

And if they want to coax you out, it shouldn't be difficult, even if they kill you secretly, it's more reasonable, rather than blaming you for this matter.

The reason why they made things so complicated must be to hide deeper secrets.

And now it seems that only Cai actually knows this secret, Ji Yongyun, Le Zigui and even the underworld old eight may not know the real deep-seated truth inside.

The three of them knew only a few scratches of the story. ”

Hearing this, Fang Zihang was glad that he didn't try to think about this matter with his own head.

Because if he thinks about these things with his own head, instead of being able to think about it clearly, it may make this matter more complicated in his mind.

And Rokuro, who listened to it like a story on the side, admired his senior brother again.

Big brother is really amazing.

I really don't know how the big brother's brain grows.

Everyone has eaten the same meal since childhood, and even lives together, inseparable, why is there such a big gap?

Of course, Liu Xin wouldn't care about Liulang's adoring eyes and Fang Zihang's eyes that found the right person.

He continued to analyze, and most of the truth about this matter has now surfaced.

2 Cai Jing's actions this time also answered some doubts in Liu Xin's heart, although there is still a layer of final fog shrouded in the truth,

But through the analysis of the cocoon, Liu Xin felt that he was very close to the truth.

"Cai Jing's move is to catch you, if it weren't for Nan Chujun, he would suddenly have inserted a lever, and Cai Jing would definitely arrest you today.

And he took you away, for only one purpose, the Void Black Forbidden Technique. ”

"Void Black Forbidden Technique!"

Liu Xin and Fang Zihang said these four words almost at the same time.

"That's right.

The Void Black Forbidden Technique on your body is what he wants most at this moment.

And if this is a fact, then there are many loopholes in what he said earlier.

It is indeed possible that your father, your senior brothers, and even the entire Black Dao Sect are restricted by one exercise, so there is a strong resistance to the improvement of strength.

That's why your Black Knife Sect has generally been relatively low in strength over the years.

But the restriction that affects your exercises will definitely not be the Void Black Forbidden Technique.

And I believe that your father should have only taught you the Void Black Forbidden Technique.

Cai Jing and even Ji Yongyun and Le Zigui, they definitely don't know this secret technique.

As for whether the Black Knife Sect is a branch of the True Demon Sect's inheritance, this has yet to be confirmed.

But I think there is a connection between the two. ”

Speaking of which, Liu Xin obviously saw a complicated look on Fang Zihang's face.

If the Black Knife Sect was really a branch of the True Demon Sect, or that it was just related to the True Demon Sect, maybe it was a fact that Fang Zihang didn't want to accept.

But sometimes facts are facts, and they don't change because you choose to believe or not to believe.

"Don't worry too much, even if you're really an offshoot of the True Demon Cult.

But after all, you are not a true demon cult.

I don't see any trace of anything related to the True Demon Cult from you. ”

Liu Xin opened the attribute panel again and looked at Fang Zihang carefully.

After these two days, he fought with Ji Yongyun, Le Zigui, and Cai Jing.

Fang Zihang's strength has improved a little.

However, the attribute panel did not say that Fang Zihang was the identity of the True Demon Sect.

Even on the side of the camp, he is still his comrade-in-arms.

This is actually enough for Liu Xin.

"The last thing I want to say is that Cai will never give up on you.

There will be a war between you.

Maybe at that time, you will be able to unlock the true secret of the Black Knife Gate.

At the same time, I would like to remind you that perhaps your father has already informed the Black Knife Gate of this true secret.

However, Cai Jing didn't necessarily know this secret from your father, so I said that the Black Knife Sect may really have something to do with the True Demon Sect.

Because according to my speculation, Cai actually estimated that it was from the True Demon Sect that he only learned about the connection between the Black Knife Sect and the True Demon Sect.

The Void Black Forbidden Art is still the most crucial factor in this.

And even more important than that is your strength.

Whether it's Cai Jing or the True Demon Sect, they are all behemoths to you.

are all great threats.

And in the face of absolutely, all these threats are just fleeting.

So you have to strengthen yourself as soon as possible, and we also have to speed up our pace and strengthen ourselves.

The Black Knife Sect includes your father, and I believe they are all on the righteous side.

As long as you believe in your father. ”

In the end, Liu Xin saw a hint of relief on Fang Zihang's face.

"Thank you, Brother Liu!

In the past few days, I have been shocked by what Cai Jing said that day.

I even began to doubt my father.

Entanglements and contradictions have always occupied my heart and made me very painful.

And now this tangle and pain is over.

It doesn't matter if the Black Knife Gate is good or evil.

It's where I grew up.

That's my home.

My father is my father, and there is no other identity.

And Cai turned out to be the real culprits who destroyed my home and killed my father.

I will do my best to avenge my family, my father, and my brothers.

It's like I got rid of Ji Yongyun and Le Zigui. ”

Liu Xin was very happy, and Fang Zihang's heart was relieved.

And for the next day and night, everyone meditated and rested on the passenger ship.

And Dugu Yueyue and Liulang finally got back together.

Only Fan Sisi was left with cold eyes when he looked at a few people.

And what I learned here through reconciliation with Rokuro Dugu Yueyue.

The reason why Fan Sisi was so angry was because she thought that the incident in Yongzhou City was a funny thing.

And because of this idea, Liu Xin spoke solemnly in front of everyone.

"You are all invited by my Liu Xin, or you are willing to follow me to the South China Sea for adventure.

In fact, the situation we are in now has become very dangerous since we entered the scope of Ganzhou or the South China Sea.

What I'm going to do next, including some of the things you're going to do with me, is a very dangerous thing, and the source of danger is everywhere.

Many of the things we do must be done with care.

We are not walking the rivers and lakes now, and the situation we are about to encounter now is more dangerous than the rivers and lakes. ”

"Okay, why are you so serious?

I know you're saying this to me, don't I understand?

When I walked the rivers and lakes, you were just a little kid! ”

Fan Sisi really couldn't listen to Liu Xin's nagging.

So he took the initiative to speak, and everyone nodded at the same time.

Fan Sisi was speechless and snorted coldly.

"I'll listen to your arrangements next, especially you Liu Xin."

Liu Xin nodded very seriously.

"Next we will go to the city of Guangzhou.

And I need a small favor from you. Of course, Rokuro has to follow me to do something.

And this matter is my Liu Xin's private matter, and it is my Holy Sect's private matter.

So, you just have to do your own thing. ”

Liu Xin's gaze swept over Fang Zihang, Dugu Yueyue and Fan Sisi one after another.

As soon as Dugu Yueyue wanted to refute, she heard Liulang say:

"This matter is an internal matter of my Holy Sect.

You can't be a part of it until I marry you. ”

"Who's going to marry you?"

Dugu Yueyue suddenly had a red glow flying on her cheeks, and her voice was subconsciously much smaller.

Her words also became less like a rebuttal, but more like coquettishness.

Fan Sisi couldn't listen to it anymore, so he shook his head and rolled his eyes.

Fang Zihang glanced at Liulang and Liu Xin deeply.

He said in a deep voice: "The matter of the Seventh Master is my business. ”

"Now Xiao Qi doesn't need you to do anything, you just need to follow my arrangement now.

The people you brought are missing, and I need you to investigate their whereabouts.

And I have a key object of suspicion here, and I need you to use your hidden powers to get close to him, to observe him, and to see if he is what I think he is.

And whatever you find, don't act rashly.

Even if there is a revenge, it is also Xiao Qi's revenge, and he must be allowed to avenge it himself! ”

Fang Zihang hesitated for a moment, nodded, and finally agreed.

Seeing that everyone agreed, Liu Xin said the tasks assigned to them.

In fact, the task is not complicated, I have just said one thing, that is, Fang Zihang will be sent to keep an eye on a person.

And Fan Sisi and Dugu Yueyue need to do another thing.

However, the identity of the woman is a little inappropriate after all, so two women are required to dress as men.

When he heard that the woman was dressed as a man, Fan Sisi, who was a little drowsy, suddenly came to his senses.

"I want to look like a scholar."

Little stars popped up in both of Versace's eyes.

But Liu Xin shook his head.

"Sister Sisi, your image and temperament are not suitable for being a scholar.

On the contrary, if Yueyue reins in her edge, it will be a bit similar. ”

Fan Sisi was immediately a little reluctant when she heard this, and looked at Dugu Yueyue for a long time, but finally became discouraged.

Because if you want to tell the truth, her image is indeed too handsome, and she has the momentum of a heroic female general.

And if Dugu Yueyue doesn't show her extremely sharp momentum, her image is actually still very small.

If you dress up like this, Dugu Yueyue may really be more suitable for the temperament of a scholar.

However, just when she was struggling with the comparison of airbags, Liu Xin's words dispelled her doubts.

"This time, the two girls are going to dress up as chivalrous.

The main thing is to participate in the Nanjianghu Conference and see if there is any interesting situation. ”

"That's right, although it sounds like that, but this girl still agreed."

Versace nodded in agreement.

And Dugu Yueyue nodded helplessly after glancing at Liulang.

It can be seen that Dugu Yueyue actually wants to be with Liulang.

So soon, the husband sang and the wife followed.

Liu Xin felt a little bit of unhappiness in his heart.

The time of the day and the night passed quickly.

The passenger ship went all the way south, and arrived at the wharf outside Guangzhou one or two hours in advance.

At this time, the sky will be bright, and the city gate of Guangzhou City has not yet opened.

After getting off the passenger ship, the five of them scattered, and Liu Xin and Rokuro walked in the direction of the city gate.
