Chapter 459: Confession
After listening to Zheng Erbiao's words, Steward Huang couldn't help frowning, and continued to ask, "Then where is your family master now?
Zheng Erbiao still replied slowly: "I just met the head of the family today, and now he should still be in the manor in Dongcheng, the defense of the manor has become tight since the head of the house came back, there are a total of four teams of magic circle monks patrolling, and there are three spirit level monks inside, I don't know about the rest." ”
Huang Guanshi's face was slightly gloomy, he didn't pay attention to the situation of the Qin Mansion during this time, he didn't expect Qin Wen to develop so fast, when he first sent the Shi family brothers to investigate Qin Wen, it was difficult to say whether the Qin family had a spirit level monk at that time, and now there are already spirit level monks among the monks patrolling, and the strength of this defense is basically on par with the current Huang Mansion.
Thinking of this, Steward Huang opened his mouth and asked, "Do you know what the Qin family manor relies on to maintain the operation of the mansion? Qin Wen gives you so many monthly rules every time, as well as rewards and tricks, where did he get these spiritual things, do you know this?"
Zheng Erbiao paused slightly, but he did not hesitate in his voice: "This family master has never said it, and we don't know either, but I know that the family master has a teleportation array in the manor, and I also served as a protective monk of the teleportation array some time ago. ”
"Teleportation array?" Huang Guan couldn't help but be stunned, the expulsion city was so big, and there were deserts and mountains and forests outside, except for trading outside the desert, it was useless to teleport the array, but Zheng Erbiao said that every half a month, there would be monks passing through the teleportation array, which was very similar to the time when caravans came and went.
Thinking of this, Steward Huang shook his head again. The monks he sent to investigate the Qin Mansion came back to report it, but he didn't find that the Qin family had a shop in the Expulsion City, if there was no shop, even if it was a spiritual object that Qin Wen traded from outside, how would he deal with it? At this time, Huang Guan suddenly thought of the market next to the barracks, but he immediately vetoed the possibility of selling spiritual objects in the market.
Just after the commander of Zhao Wu in the military camp suddenly disappeared from the city of expulsion. Qin Wen's market next to the barracks is basically in a semi-closed state, the main reason is that it is too far away from the city, basically no monks will go there to trade spiritual objects, many monks who buy shops there have already closed, and there are only a handful of spiritual objects traded every month, it is definitely not like there is a caravan to transport a large number of spiritual objects to the market from outside.
So what exactly did Qin Wen do to build a teleportation array? If he didn't trade in the Expulsion City, could it be that he had already opened the passage between the Western Continent and the Eastern Great Qi, allowing goods to circulate from these two sides? Thinking of this, Huang Guan couldn't help but smile. How long has it been since Qin Wen first came to the Expulsion City, how could he be able to open up a trade route so quickly? It took Huang Wuye nearly a hundred years to reach the Land of the Blade twice through the Twin Star City.
"No, absolutely not. Steward Huang couldn't help but murmur: "This kid's teleportation array is at most after taking the Fang Mansion, and getting the trade route from the Fang Mansion to the Hu Clan, he will definitely not have a trade route to the West." ”
Speaking of this just now, Steward Huang also wanted to ask Zheng Erbiao about other things about the Qin family's manor, and suddenly found that Zheng Erbiao's body began to shrink. Under the shroud of the black mist in his palm, he was already exhausted. withdrew his palm, and when Steward Huang's palm left Zheng Erbiao's head, Zheng Erbiao's body seemed to fall apart, and he collapsed to the ground in an instant.
Immediately, under the gaze of the three people in the room, the clothes and body turned into a puddle of black water, and the yellow steward slapped his palm at this time. As if to shake off something dirty, he turned to the two behind him: "You two clean up, by the way, don't tell anyone about today's matter, otherwise." Your fate will be the same as his. ”
The two monks couldn't help but shudder at the same time, and hurriedly nodded in agreement, and after watching the yellow steward leave the room, the shirtless monk asked in a low voice: "Did the yellow steward use the magic of the demon clan just now, I think it is very evil, just like that, what he asks, this kid will answer." ”
Speaking of this, thinking that the person he was referring to had turned into a puddle of black water, he couldn't help but retract his fingers, turned around and looked outside in horror, and asked the monk who asked Huang Steward to come here nodded slightly and said: "In the city of expulsion, it is not uncommon to know the skills of the demon clan, and the northern city is basically a demon cultivator, but Huang Steward is a red person around our fifth master, what he just said, you must keep it a secret, so as not to affect me when you get it." ”
The shirtless monk nodded subconsciously and said: "Don't worry, steward, I will definitely bury this matter in my heart, and I will never reveal anything to anyone, it's too dirty here, steward, you go out first, just leave me to clean up here." The steward nodded in satisfaction, and then walked out of the room.
After Huang Guan was released from prison, he was still a little depressed just now, but with the sunlight outside, he suddenly became lighter, although he didn't get too much useful news from Zheng Erbiao's mouth, but he was also ready to report this matter to Huang Wuye, after all, such a thing as the teleportation array should be related to the outside trade routes, if he could smoothly divert Huang Wuye's attention from being blocked on the trade routes, he would not be so frightened to do things by his side in the future.
Thinking of this, Steward Huang returned to the outside of the study, and after knocking on the door gently, he saw Huang Wuye sitting on the Taishi chair in frustration, so he said, "Fifth Master, I have something I want to report to you." ”
Huang Wuye said weakly at this time: "Why are you back again? Didn't I just say that I want to be quiet? If the matter is not too urgent, you can go out first." ”
Steward Huang hesitated for a moment and said: "Fifth Master, it's about the Qin family, just now the monk in our mansion caught a spy from the Qin Mansion, I learned a secret about the Qin family from him, and I think it should be useful to the fifth master, so I came over to report to the fifth master." ”
Huang Wuye said with a disdainful expression on his face: "The Qin family, a small reptile-like family, what secrets can he have that is worthy of my attention, I didn't want to pay attention to them some time ago, and now that the trade route is temporarily unusable, I can let them disappear from the city of expulsion at any time." ”
Steward Huang shook his head slightly and said: "Fifth Master, I don't think we can despise the Qin family now, according to the confession of that spy, the protection of the Qin Mansion in the manor is basically similar to that in our mansion, there are not only four groups of magic circle monks, but also three spirit level monks, and I heard that there is also a teleportation array in their mansion." ”
Hearing the teleportation array, Huang Wuye's eyes immediately lit up, he sat up straight, and asked Huang Wuye in a low voice: "Is what you said true?
Steward Huang nodded and said: "This is also where I am puzzled, if there is no trade route, there is no need for the Qin family to set up a teleportation array in the mansion, and the monk also said that this teleportation array will have monks come out of it every half a month, think about it, the spars used in this teleportation array are not a small amount, such frequent exchanges, if there is no profit, no matter what family will not do." ”
"And through my investigation of the Qin Mansion during this time, I have not found that Qin Wen has any business to earn spirit stones, this is the biggest suspicion now, there are so many monks in his mansion, and he is still recruiting high-level monks, even if he brings some spars from the outside, how long can he support it, I think this matter is more suspicious. ”
Huang Wuye's mind had been completely mobilized by Huang Guan Shi at this time, so he nodded slightly and said, "What you said is very reasonable, what about the monk who confessed?
Steward Huang hesitated for a moment and said: "Because that monk had a hard mouth at the beginning, so we used some punishments, and in the end he only recruited these situations, and he died of anger, Fifth Master, I think we might as well take down the Qin family now, if there is really a teleportation array, maybe it will be a big discovery, even if the benefits brought by this teleportation array are not as good as the trade routes to the west, it can be regarded as a compensation for our mansion." ”
Huang Wuye pondered for a while, and said with some hesitation: "Qin Wen, this kid has a good relationship with Ji Chang, I heard that he cured Ji Chang's waste son's illness at that time, for this matter, Ji Chang didn't even care about the Fang family who had always shown favor to him, and now Ji Chang is relatively close to the Lu family and the He family, I am afraid that if you attack Qin Wen, it will cause a series of chain reactions." ”
"I think it's easy to deal with Qin Wen, now what we have to do is to find something to attract the attention of the Ji family first, so that he can't be distracted by the Qin family, let's take down the Qin family again, I have endured it for a few years, and I will definitely not let go of this kid Qin Wen this time." ”
Steward Huang thought for a while and said: "Fifth Master, I have a way, now our trade route is useless, it is better to use this as bait and deliberately reveal the matter of the teleportation array to Ji Chang, I think he will definitely be very interested in the trade route, and when he is completely attracted by the matter of the trade route, we will be able to attack Qin Wen." ”
Huang Wuye thought for a moment, nodded and said: "This method is good, maybe Ji Chang will invest a lot of monks and spiritual objects in the trade route this time, and at that time, we will not only be able to take down Qin Wen, but if the Ji Mansion is weak, it will be possible to take Ji Chang in one fell swoop." ”
Seeing that Huang Wuye had returned to his normal expression, Steward Huang hurriedly echoed: "Fifth Master is wise, I'll send someone to investigate first." After speaking, he hurried out of the study again. (To be continued......)
