Chapter 460: Listening
At this time, in the main hall of the manor, Qin Wen and Lu Mo both listened with solemn faces as a monk below was making a report, and the monk said with an anxious face: "Master Qin, Steward Lu, Zheng Erbiao was arrested by the monks of the Huang Mansion and entered the mansion, I estimate that they will definitely force a confession, what should we do now?"
Since Qin Wen was often not in the manor, he was not very familiar with Zheng Erbiao, so he turned to look at Lu Mo, Lu Mo's brows were almost screwed together now, and said to Qin Wen: "It's a little troublesome now, Zheng Erbiao is still relatively familiar with our manor, although he has not been rewarded with meritorious skills, but he has participated in these few battles against the Zhou family, the Han family and the Fang family." ”
"And although he was not selected for the caravan, and he didn't know the specific situation of the caravan, but before he went out to investigate the situation, he also guarded a teleportation array in our manor, if this matter was interrogated by the Huang Mansion, Huang Wuye would definitely have an idea, after all, in the city of expulsion, no one would set up a teleportation array except for a particularly important purpose. ”
Hearing this, Qin Wen couldn't help frowning, Zheng Erbiao's arrest was indeed too unexpected, and he hesitated for a moment and said: "Since the person has been arrested, we must first find a way to rescue, and in addition, we must take defensive measures to deal with the attack of the Huang family, this time the caravan of the Huang Mansion failed, and he can accumulate enough strength to deal with us, even if Zheng Erbiao is not arrested, the Huang Mansion will not let us go." ”
"The most important thing now is to rescue people first, but if you rush to save people inside the Yellow Mansion, it will cause conflicts, and this matter must be cautious. ”
Lu Mo nodded and said: "The head of the family is right, although it was an accident this time, but it is also my responsibility, although the Huang Mansion is heavily guarded, but now we still have clues." Do you know who caught Zheng Erbiao? We can start with the monk who captured him, and then find out where Zheng Erbiao is being held now, and then find a way to rescue him. ”
The monk who reported thought for a while and said, "At that time, I followed a steward of the Huang Mansion with Zheng Erbiao to the Thorn of the Rose, and when I went back, Zheng Erbiao saw the two monks of the Huang Mansion chatting, so I came back first and prepared to report the matter to Qin Ye." But I didn't expect that just a few steps away, I found that Zheng Erbiao had been arrested by the two monks and then brought into the Yellow Mansion. ”
"I don't know the name of the monk, but if I meet him, I'll recognize it. ”
Lu Mo said to Qin Wen at this time: "Master Qin Dan, leave this matter to me to deal with." Seeing Qin Wen nodded, Lu Mo walked out of the main hall with the monk and came to the eaves of the corridor outside. Lu Mo called Gao Meng and said to him: "You go to find a spirit level monk and two monks from the Xuan Master realm now, take them to the vicinity of the Yellow Mansion to observe, and if you see the Yellow Mansion monk he saw today, bring him back directly." ”
Gao Meng nodded in agreement, turned around and walked out of the eaves with the monk who came back to report, Lu Mo returned to the main hall at this time, and reported to Qin Wenyu: "Master Qin Dan." I have already sent Gao Meng to take people to the vicinity of the Yellow Mansion, as long as we catch the monk of the Yellow Mansion. can find out Zheng Erbiao's current situation. ”
Qin Wen nodded and said, "That's okay, but just now the monk in our mansion said that there was a steward in the Huang Mansion who went to the Thorn of the Rose, I think it may have something to do with Ling Long, Huang Wuye's trade route was cut off, and now Ling Jian will definitely not meet with him." If he wants to get the news of Twin Star City, he must be looking for a monk who has something to do with Ling Dian, and from this analysis, it is normal to find Ling Long. ”
Lu Mo pondered for a moment and said, "In the past two days, I have also asked people to collect information on the Rose Thorn, but it is all ordinary information. There is very little to do with Ling Long, our monk just heard that Ling Long has been coming to the Rose Thorn for a long time, it is estimated that when he first arrived, he was only a monk at the upper level of the Xuan Master, and the advanced spirit disciple monk should be in the Rose Thorn. ”
"Now he is a senior steward of the Rose Thorn management gambling house, but in the past two years, he has been suddenly transferred to the position of purchasing steward, and often goes out to buy some needed spiritual objects in the inner city, which is also criticized within the Rose Thorn. ”
"Being criticized?" Qin Wen frowned slightly and said, "Isn't this kind of personnel change normal?
Lu Mo shook his head and said: "It's not that he has a problem with his behavior, on the contrary, he is a person who does things exquisitely and is very sleek, so he can be in charge of the gambling house, but this person has a shortcoming, that is, his hands and feet are not very clean, and when managing the gambling house, he often embezzles some chips for his own benefit, although in the end these spirit stones are not privately swallowed, but this is against the rules of the gambling house, so he is often criticized by his peers." ”
"A monk like this was finally transferred to the purchase, which also made many stewards of the Rose Thorn puzzled, but after going out this time, he did not return to the city of expulsion at the specified time, I heard that because of this, several high-level officials also held a meeting for this, as for the specific situation, we can't find out. ”
Qin Wen nodded slightly and said, "Ling Long can't come back this time, what is he going to do with someone to Twin Star City as a purchasing manager?" If he said that he participated in Ling Dian's plan to seize the city, he could have handed over the Cold Demon Arrow to Ling Dian and left Twin Star City, didn't he know that it was very dangerous to stay in Twin Star City?"
Just now speaking of this, Qin Wen suddenly remembered something and said, "I understand, Ling Long must have gone to Twin Star City this time to buy Frost Mushroom, because only Twin Star City will produce Frost Mushroom, and he should carry a spar with the Rose Thorn on his body, so it will cause the Rose Thorn higher-level to hold a meeting for this." ”
Thinking of this, it can be regarded as solving a small question in Qin Wen's heart, now he has not had time to send these materials to Twin Star City, only by dealing with these things in front of him first, can he follow the caravan to the country of He Blade, and then go to Twin Star City through the teleportation array.
Although Qin Wen had the teleportation array disk given by Ling Jian in his hand, Qin Wen prepared that array disk that could only be used when it was most critical, and under normal circumstances, it was more appropriate to go through the country of He Blade.
Now the grievances with the Huang Mansion are the most important, Qin Wen turned the topic to the defense of the manor and said: "I went to see the ancient soul just now, he is recovering quite well, but it will take a certain amount of time to detoxify, it is better to let him be the defense of the manor for the time being." ”
Lu Mo hesitated for a moment and said: "Now what I'm most worried about is Zheng Erbiao, if he really said that there is a teleportation array in our mansion, I think Huang Wuye will definitely guess whether there is a trade route to the outside world in our mansion, now that his trade route has been cut off, plus the Dan master has offended him before, maybe he will attack us during this time." ”
Qin Wen nodded and said, "This is very likely, but if we look at the situation we have found out now, even if he attacks our manor, there is no hope of attacking the manor, after all, we have a magic circle monk and ancient soul here, but I don't know if there is anything to rely on in their mansion?"
Lu Mo said hesitantly: "The Huang family can survive in the Expulsion City for so many years, there must be a place for him to rely on, our time in the Expulsion City is still too short, basically we have not seen the Huang Mansion and other families have conflicted, otherwise, Danshi, you go and ask Ji Chang to see if he knows something about the situation in the Huang Mansion." ”
Qin Wen looked at the sky outside, it was already sunset, so he waved his hand and said: "It's getting late now, it's not very convenient to go to Ji Mansion at this time, you get up early tomorrow to prepare some gifts for me, I'll go to Ji Mansion for a trip, by the way, you can now summarize the situation from the Rose Piercing and write it on a piece of paper, and when the matter here is almost handled, I will go to the country of He Blade with the caravan, and then go to Twin Star City to give these situations to Ling Huan." ”
"In the future, with a good relationship with Twin Star City, we will not only have security guarantees, but even if we enter and exit the entire continent, it will be much more convenient to have their teleportation array. ”
Lu Mo nodded and agreed, and Qin Wen walked out of the main hall, returned to his quiet room, sorted out the items he had carried with him these days, and saw how many elixirs had been consumed in them, just enough to replenish them at this time.
Half an hour later, there was a sudden knock on the door outside the quiet room, and a cautious voice from Lu Mo said, "Master Qin, I have something urgent to report to you. ”
Qin Wen was stunned, got out of bed, opened the door, and saw Lu Mo's anxious face, so he asked, "What's the matter?" Is there news from the Huang Mansion?"
Lu Mo nodded and said: "Just now Gao Meng took a few monks to bring back the steward of the Huang Mansion who arrested Zheng Erbiao, and now he has begun to confess, Zheng Erbiao has been searched by the steward of the Huang Mansion with the skills of the demon clan to search for all the information he knows, and the person has turned into a puddle of black water, according to him, now the Huang steward knows that we have a teleportation array, as for whether Huang Wuye knows now, this is still difficult to say." ”
Qin Wen frowned slightly, turned around and walked out of the quiet room and said, "Where is that person?" Let's go and see now, after all, our teleportation array is used more frequently, I think if Huang Wuye knows about it now, he will definitely not let go of this clue easily, how about Gao Meng's interrogation? Don't hurt the life of the steward, we can get more detailed information about the Huang Mansion from him." ”
Lu Mo nodded and said, "Don't worry, I have already arranged it on Gao Meng's side, and that Huangfu steward is a soft commodity, so he basically confessed without much torture." (To be continued......)
