In the meeting hall of Cao's Mansion, as soon as Su Yi entered the door, he was taken aback. I saw that the hall was full of people, and there were only a few seats. The people who can have seats are all some powerful bigwigs.

Cao Yude, who lived in the first seat, saw Su Yi enter the door, so he laughed and said, "Master Su, come on, come on." ”

Su Yi smiled bitterly: "Master Cao, you can torment the juniors. ”

"I've come to see all the elders, but everyone wants to see what kind of demeanor people can be able to fight ten with one. ”

Most of the people present were elderly, so naturally they didn't have much interest in the rumors between juniors. But he was very curious about Su Yi's identity, and couldn't understand why this kid, who was much younger than Cao Jing, could make Cao Yude value him, and even let him participate in such an important and confidential meeting.

Su Yi hurriedly followed the courtesy, met with the giants, and then stood with Cao Jing behind Cao Yude.

"What's the situation?" Su Yi asked in a low voice.

"It's a long story, let's have a meeting first. Cao Jing also replied in a low voice.

"Why are they all saying that I am 'one against ten', isn't this to kill me?"

"This... You didn't say you couldn't say it. ”

"Big brother, you're a scoundrel. ”

"Okay, okay, I'll admit it was my negligence. When I came back, I met Fu Bo, and hurried back to the house, forgetting to explain a few words for a while. It is estimated that it was passed out by my sister and those guards. ”

"Big brother, who didn't you tell me?"

"I... I just told my father. ”

Su Yi glared at Cao Jing angrily, and couldn't make a loud noise, so he could only stare at him with big eyes to show his dissatisfaction.

"This... Don't look at me like this, can't my eldest brother apologize to you?" Cao Jing said sincerely.

"I almost have to fight Zhuang Yusheng. Su Yi finally turned his head away and stopped glaring at Cao Jing.

"So serious?" Cao Jing said in surprise, "But Zhuang Yusheng can't beat you, what are you afraid of?"

"Big brother, I beg you, you think too highly of me. Zhuang Yusheng is a genius in the Dragon Descending Realm, if he really has the strength to fight with 'one enemy and ten', I will be killed. Su Yi said miserably.

"It's not so exaggerated, is it?" Cao Jing said with serious doubts.

"Otherwise, we'll compete in a while, didn't you say that I can fight with one against ten? Then I'll fight you with the strength of one against ten, how about it?" Su Yi found that the rumors of 'one against ten' had already begun to have a bad impact on him, so he decided to destroy the rumors when he saw them, starting with Cao Jing.

Cao Jing coughed dryly and said, "Big brother understands your hardship, so there is no need for the competition." In this way, the eldest brother will not care about you about using my second brother in the Little Death Mountain, and it will be written off. ”

"Okay. Su Yi said simply. As long as Cao Jing can admit his mistakes, he doesn't ask for anything else.

The attention of the two finally returned to the meeting.

"So, why is my uncle in such a hurry to hold a meeting?" asked Su Yi.

"Those color-robed people we saw on the street earlier are really followers of the Heaven Controlling Sect. If you hadn't found out that the Earth Yuan Sect was related to the Heavenly Sect, my father wouldn't have noticed them. Now that I have discovered this, it is natural to make some arrangements in advance. Cao Jing explained.

"Why didn't you report to the police?"

Cao Jing shook his head and said, "They are legal missionaries, and they are not traitors, so the government has no reason to arrest them." Besides, what happened five years ago, we have no evidence, and we can't do anything about them. ”

"Is it really legal for heretics to run rampant in the city?" Su Yi still didn't believe it.

"At that time, the Son of Heaven exchanged and traded with the countries of the Western Regions and signed many agreements. One of them was the restriction on missionary work, and the religions in the Western Regions could preach in the Great Song Dynasty under the condition of abiding by the laws and regulations of the Great Song Dynasty, and the government was not allowed to interfere, nor treated missionaries in a way different from the local sects, let alone expelled without reason. Of course, Taoism in the Great Song Dynasty was also able to preach in the Western Regions. ”

"This time, a large number of Heavenly Dominating Sect disciples entered Beiyue City, which should be related to the Divine Festival seven days later. Cao Yude said.

"Why have I never heard of it? Everyone looked at each other.

"Because the Festival of the Gods is a festival in the Western Regions, of course we haven't heard of it. This time, the Heavenly Sect transported a large number of statues of gods into the city, and they were to be displayed to the people on the day of the festival, so as to promote their gods and religions and absorb followers. The matter has been reported to the government and the document approved by the Tuzhou government has been obtained. We can't stop it, we have to work from other places. Cao Yude explained.

"Since the Heavenly Sect has a legitimate reason to operate in Beiyue City, what is Brother Cao still worried about?" The one who asked was the leader of the Tuzhou Salt Gang, Zhong Sihai.

Cao Yude replied: "Cao Mou dared to pack tickets to everyone here, the trip of the Heavenly Sect must have another purpose, but Cao Mou was incompetent and could not find any clues. Come, to brainstorm. If you can trust Cao, please speak freely. ”

"Based on Master Cao's guess, he will mobilize the people to fight against the Heavenly Sect. If the Heaven Control Sect had never made any other moves, wouldn't we have erected an enemy for no reason?"

"Who is this fat man?" asked Su Yi.

"That is the shopkeeper of the Tuzhou area of Wanzhou firm, Wan Qingxiang, who is in charge of several branches of Wanzhou firm in Tuzhou. Cao Jing explained.

"Merchants can also be involved in this kind of thing?" Su Qiqi said.

"Before the soldiers and horses arrived, the grain and grass went first. Money is food. Besides, there are many thugs under WH Group, and their strength should not be underestimated. ”

The Wanzhou firm reminded Su Yi of another old thing, an old thing that made him grit his teeth with hatred. But Wanzhou firms are all over the Great Song Kingdom, but I don't know if it has anything to do with Wan Qingxiang of this Tuzhou branch and Wanzhou merchants back then, and whether they are doing the same lack of morality.

He calculated in his heart that he had to test this Wan Qingxiang.

"If everything is okay in the end, that's a good thing. But if you really let the Heavenly Sect succeed, the next one to suffer will be your Changle City. Cao Yude said lightly.

There is only a Crescent Moon Mountain between Beiyue and Changle, if you really let the Heavenly Sect stir up the wind and rain in Beiyue City, and finish this city, it is not good to say that the next stop is to stir up Changle City along Xinyue Mountain.

Wan Qingxiang didn't speak again.

The only one present that Su Yi recognized was Li Zhonghuai of the Golden Lion Gang. I only heard him speak: "The old man thinks that Yude is reasonable, and there are no eggs under the nest." Although we don't know much about the Heavenly Sect, the infidels' wolf ambitions must be guarded against. Now is the time for the big guys to come together, but if you don't want to participate, it's not too late to quit. ”

The Golden Lion Gang is not very powerful, but it has a very wide range of contacts and has some prestige in the rivers and lakes. As the leader of the gang, Li Zhonghuai is also quite popular, and he is naturally tougher when he speaks. Only with his seniority can he cross Cao Yude to speak and calm the field.

"Our Goddess Palace is willing to help Master Cao. Someone immediately said.

The person who spoke was Song Qiuyun, an elder of the Goddess Palace. Although he is an elder-level character, he looks very young and has an outstanding temperament. In the rivers and lakes, there is no trace of anger, but reveals gentleness and nobility.

"When it comes to contribution, our True Martial Sword Sect is naturally fine. But this is a suggestion, please forgive the old man for being blunt, he is not good at it. Ding Lin, the head of the True Martial Sword Sect, said.

"It's okay," Cao Yude said with a smile, "I will gather all of you here today, and I mainly hope that you can make a statement." Since everyone is willing to work together, then Cao Mou will thank you for the people of Beiyue City first. ”

Just as Cao Yude was about to dissolve the meeting, he saw Su Yi stand up and say, "Master Cao, I don't know if the juniors can speak?"

As soon as Su Yi spoke, the eyes in the hall focused on him. Song Qiuyun's beautiful eyes looked Su Yi up and down with interest. It's just that most people don't think that Su Yi can say a reason, just that he is young and vigorous, and loves to be in the limelight.

Cao Yude laughed and said, "Master Su, but it's okay to talk about it. ”

"The younger generation has heard that five years ago, people often disappeared without reason in Beiyue City and Crescent Mountain, and it is rumored that they may have been abducted and trafficked by human traffickers. Is it possible that the Heaven Controlling Sect came suddenly this time and has something to do with this matter?" When Su Yi spoke, his attention was always focused on Wan Qingxiang. Naturally, he didn't have any credentials, but the appearance of the Wanzhou business made him suddenly think of this possibility.

"Why are you involved in human trafficking again? Boy, you can eat things indiscriminately, and you can't talk nonsense. Don't think that you can keep your mouth shut just because you're young. Wan Qingxiang said coldly.

Su Yi caught Wan Qingxiang's application change at that moment, and sneered in his heart. When the goal was achieved, he hurriedly pretended to be frightened and aggrieved, and retreated to Cao Jing's side.

"Brother Wan is a little restless, Su Gongzi doesn't have to be afraid, the old man said what he wanted, naturally he said that it was no problem to say anything. As long as there is the slightest possibility, it must be pursued. Cao Yude said.

Everyone in the hall shook their heads, obviously not taking Su Yi's words to heart, and they didn't think that Cao Yude would really investigate anything, just thinking that he was comforting the juniors.

Only Song Qiuyun showed a thoughtful look, but she didn't say anything more.

"Which play are you playing?" asked Cao Jing.

"I'll tell you in detail later, it's not convenient here. Su Yi replied.
