At some point, there was already a figure in the room, silent, as if he had been there.

The breath is floating, but it is natural, blending in with everything around it.

In the middle of the night, it's a little scary.

"Brother Guo, it's been a long time. ”

Yang Xiu put down the book in his hand, got up leisurely, and greeted him with a chuckle, like an old friend who hadn't seen him for many years.

The person who came was none other than the Demon Sect Venerable Guo Hao.

Guo Hao said expressionlessly: "Between you and me, we are not too familiar. ”

Yang Xiu said with a smile: "Once born, second mature, at least not a stranger." ”

Guo Hao reminded him: "Back then, it was just cooperation, and it was limited to cooperation, and the cooperation was irrelevant. ”

Yang Xiu shrugged his shoulders and said, "Then today's relationship is still cooperation, isn't it the same." ”

The tone remained the same, still very casual.

Guo Hao was silent, did not continue to dwell on this issue, and continued: "You are waiting here, it seems that you have long known that I am coming. ”

Yang Xiu chuckled: "I'm not so sure, but it's just a little guess, but I'm lucky, I guessed right." ”

Guo Hao looked at Yang Xiu for a moment, and said lightly: "If you are an enemy, I will get rid of you as soon as possible." ”

This sentence is the truth, but it also contains a hint of warning, warning Yang Xiu not to make small moves.

Yang Xiu said disapprerovingly: "Cooperation, the most sincere thing, you also know that I am a businessman, how can a businessman smash his own signboard." ”

Guo Hao said without a wave in his eyes: "No treacherous businessman, in the face of interests, businessmen are the easiest kind of people to betray." ”

Yang Xiu said solemnly: "I am an honest businessman, and I have always been able to give a thumbs up and say a good word." ”

Guo Hao looked at Yang Xiu, did not speak, and could not see any expression on his face.

And Yang Xiu met his gaze, looking calm, without any shame.

This kind of person is either a scheming person or a shameless person with no face and no skin.

From Guo Hao's point of view, Yang Xiu is a combination of the two, both cheeky and too scheming, like a fox with sharp claws.

Yang Xiu smiled and said, "Brother Hao, you look at me like this, I am a little uneasy, such a serious gaze, I am still a little panicked in my heart." ”

Guo Hao narrowed his eyes and said, "Then it's better for you to tell me what your purpose is." ”

For Yang Xiu, it was always impossible to fully believe it, as he said, he was a businessman.

In the eyes of businessmen, there is only the exchange of interests, although this exchange is very solid, but on another level, it is very fragile.

Enough chips in exchange for enough goods, but in the face of another huge interest, whether you can maintain credibility is two words.

Yang Xiu opened his eyes and said, "Didn't they tell you the purpose, of course it was for their own safety, after all, I am a person who is afraid of death." ”

Guo Hao faintly: "You are indeed a person who is afraid of death, but you are not an unprepared person, as your enemy, many people are no longer there." ”

Guo Hao didn't believe a word about Yang Xiu's words, so he came here tonight in person to see for himself and verify something.

In this world, except for the people of his own holy sect, Guo Hao will not trust anyone else.

Especially the people in the imperial court, what happened back then was a transaction on the surface, but in the final analysis, it was a calculation, counting himself and others and the entire rivers and lakes.

Guo Hao doesn't comment on the affairs of the previous generation, but the current affairs and future affairs must be in his own hands.

This time, there are too many ambiguities about the cooperation with Yang Xiu, and in Guo Hao's view, these places are all flaws that may fail.

However, I also know in my heart that with the current situation, cooperating with Yang Xiu is the best choice, but this choice is also leeway, not desperate, and it is necessary to leave some necessary back-ups.

And first of all, it is necessary to figure out Yang Xiu's purpose.

Guo Hao said: "As far as I know, even if your current situation is unbearable, but with your ability, it is no problem just to survive, and it is not necessary to cooperate with us, but you still found it, why is this?"

Yang Xiu put away the smile on his face and sank

After chanting for a moment, he said slowly: "If you just survive, you can indeed live, but there are many ways to live." ”

Speaking of this, Yang Xiu couldn't help but show a wry smile.

"If you really say it, you can't be reconciled."

"I don't want to hide, I have to be ready to defend myself against retaliation, and even if I can tolerate it, I can't put my family in that situation. ”

"For me, even if it is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, and eighteen layers of hell, it is nothing, but I can't put my family in danger all the time, and after scheming so many times, it is time to make a plan for myself. ”

Yang Xiu's face is sincere, sincere, and reasonable, which has to be convincing.

Guo Hao said: "But why us, according to what you said, Wanjue Mountain Villa can also be your choice." ”

Yang Xiu shook his head and said, "No, the power of the Ten Thousand Absolute Mountain Villa is indeed not bad, but it is on the rivers and lakes, and they don't have the strength to deal with my enemies." ”

Guo Hao said again: "Then why did you choose us." ”

Yang Xiu groaned: "It should be said that it is a transaction because I helped you, so I use trading as a button, and there is another reason, because you are strong enough." ”

Yes, the Demon Sect is indeed very powerful, not the kind of power that floats on the surface, but is inconspicuous and impermeable, making people feel unfathomable.

Sometimes, the mysterious is more intimidating, and if you are exposed to the sun, everything can be seen at a glance, and then you lose that invisible layer of protection.

However, in terms of real strength, the strength of the Demon Sect is indeed very strong, and in the real rivers and lakes, I am afraid that only Mengshan can suppress them, and this is not because of the overall strength, but because Mengshan has tears in his eyes.

Moreover, Yang Xiu had other considerations, the foundation of the Demon Sect was very clean.

That's right, it's clean, they don't have too much to do with those people, and in this regard, there are no all kinds of messy entanglements of interests.

Those families in the south, as well as those in the court, have deep roots, and their tentacles extend to all aspects of Dahua, and all forces intersect.

And this is extremely unfavorable to Yang Xiu, after all, there are too many people who have offended, and he has lost his biggest backer, and his life and safety are very threatened.

In the past, with the blessing of the first emperor, he didn't have anything to do, but now he can't do it, and before he can pave the back road, the first emperor will become the first emperor.

Alas, this is a little caught off guard, and it can only be said that there are unforeseen circumstances.

Now, although he has the heart to protect himself today, the weight is not so heavy, but he is just an old minister of the first emperor, and the rest is nothing.

Moreover, the detective division can protect himself for a while, and he can't take care of his own life, and it is better to find his own way back.

Therefore, Yang Xiu chose the former Demon Sect, which was simply the best choice.

First of all, the foundation of the Demon Sect is clean, and the reputation is good, and there is no shortage of masters, it is precisely because he cooperated with the Demon Sect back then that Yang Xiu knows the essence of the Demon Sect.

Half-step celestials, you can still take out some.

Isn't this your best shelter, not in the court, and not in the rivers and lakes.

Those enemies, even if they want their own lives, can't be blatant, they can only make small moves secretly, so that the power they can send is limited.

Security is not a problem.

Similarly, because of the events of the year, the Demon Sect can be said to have suffered a great injury, although it has recovered a little over the years, but its name has become a proper villain.

Walking on the rivers and lakes, dare to report the name of the Demon Sect, that is, the old birthday star hanged himself for a long time.

Therefore, they need some channels and some external support, and Yang Xiu has been operating for so many years, and the last thing that is lacking is channels.

To a certain extent, the two are complementary, one is a contribution, and the other is a platform foundation.

At that time, Yang Xiu was a help to the Demon Sect, and the Demon Sect was also an indispensable support for Yang Xiu.

Cooperation is mutually beneficial, and the two sides complement each other to achieve a win-win situation, which is the case.

Guo Hao can also think of these, after all, Yang Xiu is equivalent to clearly marking the price and expressing it clearly, but out of suspicion of Yang Xiu, it is better to ask clearly.

Moreover, although there is no problem with what Yang Xiu said, there must be a hidden place, one

Personally, it is impossible to show all the hole cards.

Everyone will keep a hand, no matter who it is, there will be a layer of insurance.

Thinking of this, Guo Hao shook his head and said: "These are far from enough, what you say is your own business, it is space for us, you must first show your sincerity." ”

Yang Xiu chuckled and said, "Naturally, just saying something out of thin air, I guess you won't believe it, when the time comes to arrange a meeting, then the transaction will begin." ”

Guo Hao's eyes moved, and then said: "I hope it is as you said, otherwise"

Yang Xiu waved his hand and said, "I understand, I understand." ”

"In order to promote further trust in our mutual cooperation and lay the groundwork, I have information here to tell you. ”

Guo Hao said lightly: "What information?"

Although I asked a question, I didn't pay much attention to it in my heart, and I can say that I have collected a lot of information during this time.

Therefore, there is no expectation for Yang Xiu's words.

Yang Xiu said in a flat tone: "Someone transferred five thousand iron horsemen from the northern frontier. ”

What Yang Xiu said was very ordinary, just like asking if you had eaten it, what I ate.

But these words were like Hong Zhong in Guo Hao's heart, and he was shocked fiercely.

Five thousand iron horses, what is that for, is it to prevent the martial arts conference, or because of himself and others

For a while, Guo Hao's thoughts flew in his heart, and he thought of a lot, which was really a little unexpected, and he didn't receive any news about this at all.

Five thousand iron horses, not much, but less is not much, at this time, there is no trace, which is very terrible.

In addition, Guo Hao also noticed a word, northern Xinjiang

You know, those are not ordinary soldiers, but they are all elites of a hundred battles, although in recent years with the Northern Yuan, there have been no large-scale battles, but there are also constant frictions, and there are many small battles every year.

Those soldiers, all through the sword and blood, are different from the garrisons of the states.

And, since it can be transferred, it proves that it is the elite among them, which should not be underestimated.

But at this time, if it is a coincidence, even no one believes it.

Guo Hao's face changed a few times, and then he said in a deep voice: "How do you know?"

It stands to reason that there is no news about such a confidential matter, and I and the others have not heard from it, no, it should be said that the various forces of this martial arts conference have not received any news.

However, Yang Xiu knew that it would be related to him, Guo Hao couldn't help but speculate in his heart.

For Guo Hao's suspicion, Yang Xiu chuckled, then stretched out a finger and pointed at the sky leisurely.

Guo Hao frowned, what do you mean, the secret of heaven cannot be revealed

"The reason I know is because there are people above me. ”

Yang Xiu said the answer with a smile.

“”

The atmosphere paused for a moment, and Guo Hao said slowly: "This joke is not funny. ”

At that moment, Guo Hao really thought so, but then reacted, this was impossible.

The movement of troops, this is such a secret thing, it is not a simple sentence that there are people on it.

There is a lot involved, and it is impossible to make sense in one sentence.

Moreover, with Yang Xiu's former identity and current situation, who can be above him, and who dares to contact him at this time.

The current Yang Xiu is being targeted by many people.

Yang Xiu shrugged his shoulders and said, "Okay, then I'll be honest with Fang Jiuting who told me about it." ”

Fang Jiuting was a member of the Imperial Court Detective Division, so it was no wonder.

With their energy, they will naturally know this.

The detective department is a vicious dog of the royal family, not to mention who bites whom, but it has the role of supervising the world.

It's like a pair of eyes, watching in the dark, I'm afraid there is no organization in the world that can compare to them, after all, they are backed by the royal family.

Whether it is power or money, there is no shortage.

However, the people of the Detective Division protected Yang Xiu, which showed that the new emperor still attached great importance to Yang Xiu.

In this way, there is more to consider about the cooperation with Yang Xiu.
