Chapter 289
Bai Xiaosheng said casually, "This is not something you should think about now. Let me ask you, what do you think of Tatsuroku?"
"Chen Liu?" Mo Ghost asked, "But the disciple has been here for a short time..."
"Don't think too much, didn't you go to the Demon Beast Forest with him tonight?
"He is very familiar with the Demon Beast Forest, and he also knows all kinds of demon beasts, and his basic skills are solid," Mo Ghost recalled, "It's not bad to be a person, and he is dutifully teaching us." โ
"What else?" Bai Xiaosheng looked at her.
Mo Ghost looked at the eyes of his seniors, and always felt that he was waiting for her to say Chen Liu's shortcomings, "Also, his sensitivity to the news seems to be a little worse, the rattlesnake wants to make a move on the golden python, it must be two years ago, it can't be without a clue at all, but they haven't found anything." โ
"Well, it's true," Bai Xiaosheng nodded, "but it's not that I didn't find it, but I didn't see it." โ
"I've gotten the news a long time ago, but..." Mo Ghost said with hesitation, "But Chen Liu's analysis of the current situation is completely accurate when faced with completely known information, and he can make the most correct judgment. โ
"So he can only be a thug forever, and he is still an excellent thug," Bai Xiaosheng did not deny him, "Then what do you think of yourself?"
"I think I'm talented, right? Otherwise, my seniors wouldn't have told me this," Mo Ghost shrugged his shoulders slightly, "You specially called me over to let me listen and watch more, do you want to see how sensitive I am to the news?"
"That's right, now it seems that you are even more talented than I thought," Bai Xiaosheng was very happy, and finally found a seedling who could replace him.
Ten years ago, the head of the family sent her over, but because of her different pupils, Ben didn't have much hope, he had some friendship with Xiang Xuehai before, and he still gave him a chance, but when he sorted out the information, he didn't expect it.
It may seem like a small thing, but it's not easy to do it well.
Complex information can be neatly concise, clear at a glance, arranged by time and sect, without omission or repetition, requiring very strict logical ability and strong memory, and this is the foundation of an intelligence elder.
In order to test her, Bai Xiaosheng specially found this place, and she was very satisfied with her performance last night.
Rattlesnake didn't maintain the environment too much because she caught the little golden python, but she could see the clues at a glance and was not very human, and more importantly, she could accurately distinguish the priorities of all kinds of mixed information.
"In the Demon Beast Forest, the change in information is the largest, so it's time to exercise here. Bai Xiaosheng has also been hiding in the shadows and testing her personally.
"Yes," Mo Ghost gave up his hand, he had a premonition when he came here, Senior Bai would not call her over for nothing, and he also intercepted the matter of the secret guard. Especially in order not to expose her, he specially called Shen Kongming and a few people over, so much trouble must have been planned.
"Chen Wu just asked you to stay in the station recently?" Bai Xiaosheng asked, seeing her nod, "It's okay, but you have to follow you to the secret room to see the news you get." โ
"I heard Chen Wu say that the information obtained by the station is not confidential, and the role of weekdays is more to understand the changes in the city, and the secret guards of the station have no right to interfere with the secret guards in the city. Mo Ghost had a question in his eyes.
"Yes, there is no right, for Chen Liu, they are naturally to get the news, but for you," Bai Xiaosheng pointed at Mo Ghost, "it is to analyze the news." โ
"The news obtained by the secret guards in each city is the most basic, trivial, like what you see in the intelligence tower, it has been screened twice, and what I want you to see now is the most primitive news. โ
"Beiling City is the most special city on the continent, the monks of the major sects are covered, plus the open and secret battles in the Demon Beast Forest, it can be regarded as a small Yunhai Continent, everyone's actions are very likely to be full of deep meaning, what I want you to do is to screen it and analyze the movements of each sect. โ
"Seniors rest assured. Mo Ghost bowed his head and bowed.
"Forest!"
There was a knock from Shen Kongming outside the door, Mo Ghost looked up, and the figure of Senior Bai was gone, he untied the spirit beast bag from his waist, released Xiao Hei Xiaobai, threw it on the wooden bed, and went over to open the door by himself.
"What's wrong?"
"Why did you come up? Chen Liu came out and called us over!" Shen Kongming shouted loudly.
"Release the spirit beast, and this will go down," Mo Ghost turned his head to look inside, "You guys stay here honestly, wait for me to come back, don't run around." โ
Xiaobai lay there lazily, "Got it." โ
"Tatsuroku is going to take us to the secret room. Shen Kongming didn't doubt it when he heard her explanation, turned around and walked downstairs.
When they got downstairs, there was no one in the courtyard, the innermost room was wide open, and the two of them went in directly, and they saw everyone waiting inside, and looked at the two people who came in together.
"This is the secret room where the secret guard messages are kept. Seeing them come in, Chen Liu explained, walked to the bookshelf next to him, took out a token, and placed it on the grid on the very edge, only to hear a click, and the wall behind him opened, "Let's go." โ
"When you're sure you're stationed here, someone will come and give you this token, but not yet," Tatsuroku said, taking out the moonstone from his storage bag and walking all the way down to a stone room, "Here it is." โ
The stone room is not large, and the innermost part is an open space with traces of formations on it, and dense jade slips are hung on the bookshelves on both sides.
"On the left is the introduction of the sects on the continent, as well as the number of demon beast species in the demon beast forest, etc., all of which are summarized by the predecessors, you can take them out, you see all these, but it's a bit messy, you have to find it when you need it. โ
"On the bookshelf on the right is the news from the secret guard in Beiling City, there is everything, generally we read it once and throw it over, it is of little value, but we must remember that you can't take one out, you can only stay here to read. โ
When Chen Liu introduced, a flash of inspiration flashed on the innermost formation, and a brand-new jade slip appeared on it.
"The jade slip is there every day, basically it comes in the evening, this one comes in such a hurry, it should be in the demon beast forest," Chen Liu went over and picked it up, and his divine sense entered it, and sure enough, it was a rattlesnake, "The major sects have already sent people to find out the news, this time it is a coincidence, we happen to be present, we can record the situation on the jade slip and then pass it back, and get first-hand information." โ
As he spoke, he put the jade slip he had just prepared on the formation, and the token was embedded in the wall behind him, and it disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"It's coming every day, wouldn't there be a lot of news, is this wall enough to fit?" Mo Ghost walked over slowly, and picked up a jade slip casually, "This place is cleaned regularly?"
"Clean it up every ten years, that is, before we leave, we have to destroy all the jade slips here," Chen Liu explained, retrieving his token, "If the later monks have any questions, they can send jade slips from the teleportation array to the secret guards here, and they will answer anything that is not confidential." โ
"Wouldn't it be dangerous to do this?" Shen Kongming opened his fan and sat on the stone chair in the middle, "Just like your token, what if someone else gets it?"
"This token is all connected to the blood of the holder, just like whoever among you gets it, can't use it, the only possibility is that I am persecuted," Tatsuroku held up his token, "but as long as you move a little bit during the teleportation process, you can find it over there." โ
"In other words, although you are also in Beiling City, you don't know who the secret guard is at the other end of the teleportation array?"
"That's right, each hall of the secret guard has its own role, generally speaking, they don't know each other, I've been here for ten years, and I don't know which one the secret guard is here, but Jade Jane is often sent. โ
Mo Ghost nodded, "Are we going to be here for the next few days?"
"Well, at least for a month, the Demon Beast Forest can't take you there, if you feel bored, you can go around the city, it should be very lively recently, but you still have to be careful. "Tatsuroku doesn't limit them.
"But how are we going to get in?" Shen Kongming put his hand on the table, "Isn't there necessarily a token here?"
"Don't worry about this, there will be a person left to guard the Escape Station at all times, and if you want to come in, just find someone. Chen Liu walked back, "Tomorrow is when I stay here, you can go and find me if you need it." โ
"Can we stay here today?" Mo Ghost looked at him.
"Of course, at any time. "Chen Liu is so unguarded, and he generously let them in, naturally he got the instructions of Senior Bai.
"Thank you in advance. Mo Ghost nodded slightly.
"No need," Chen Liu waved his hand, "It just so happens that I also want to leave to find some news, and the news we got ourselves will also leave a backup when passing it on to the dark guard, but it's all piled up here, we have to find it carefully." โ
Chen Liu pointed to the wall on the right, he remembered that there seemed to be news about rattlesnakes two years ago, but after checking for a while, he didn't find anything, so he didn't see it.
"The jade slips in this, even if they are piled up, they are still according to the time, right?" Mo Ghost came to the edge and picked up one to see that it was ten years ago, it was written that on the fifth day of the sixth month, a strange man entered the city, the purpose was unknown, and a portrait was attached.
"Almost, not too far. Tatsuroku nodded.
"When you want to find it, we can help too. Mo Ghost put the jade slip back, "Or are you looking for a rattlesnake?"
"What you said is exactly what you said, something so big has happened, you have to figure it out before you can explain it. Chen Liu sighed, "The rattlesnake really doesn't appear in the forest, every time we see it, it's because it's going to hunt demon beasts, or when it's bullied by the golden python, the only impression we have is two years ago." โ
"Two years ago?" muttered Mo Ghost, "when the female golden python laid eggs and was destroyed by the Red Eagle?"
According to what Bai said before, the red eagle should have obtained the blood of the dragon, but judging from the conversation at the time, the rattlesnake should have its own bloodline too low, so it did not absorb the essence blood for a long time, and until today, it succeeded with the help of the little golden python.
Presumably he heard about the hatred between the red eagle and the golden python, and he had already made arrangements, but unfortunately Chen Liu didn't find out.
"Yes, I remember that the demon beast forest was very lively at that time, the golden python was already domineering, and was provoked by the red eagle, and was angry with the surrounding demon beasts, it was chaotic at that time, and the rattlesnake didn't care too much about its actions at that time. Tatsuroku was a little annoyed.
"Let's take a look, then. Mo Ghost took a few steps forward and looked at the jade slips here.

The bustle in the Demon Beast Forest lasted for three months.
The golden python and the rattlesnake fought, fought all night, and the sky was just about to be polished, and finally ended with the victory of the rattlesnake, and the golden python, which had dominated for many years, died. Red Eagle had been watching from the sidelines that day, and at the end of the day, he wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of the rattlesnake as well.
But the rattlesnake had already expected it, and left a hand to block the red eagle, and let it be poisoned, and fled in a gray manner.
All this was recorded by the monks hiding in the shadows with the Shadow Jade, and it spread widely in the city. Just to be able to record this, four of the monks of the accomplice died, and only two ran out, so the price was not low.
But it's worth it, this is witnessing the rise of another high-level demon!
The golden python cultivated high before his death, and his bloodline level was high, occupying the vicinity of the only stream in the forest. But now that it is dead, the rattlesnake has taken possession of it without shame, which naturally causes dissatisfaction.
In the past three months, many high-level demon beasts have taken turns to provoke, but all of them have failed, once again proving to all demon beasts that this rattlesnake is no longer the snake it was at the beginning!
One of the smarter things about it is that it has adopted a policy of softness towards its greatest enemy, Red Eagle.
Before, the Golden Python and the Red Eagle, as the two major bullies, fought happily in the Demon Beast Forest, but because both of them were high-level demons, no demon beast dared to provoke them.
Now the rattlesnake took over the golden python, and also poisoned the red eagle on the same day, I thought it would continue to fight, but I didn't expect the rattlesnake to go to the red eagle's territory in person, detoxified it, no one knows what they talked about, in short, they lived in peace the next day, and the rattlesnake completely stood on its feet.
Now that March has passed, the Demon Beast Forest has gradually calmed down.
The rattlesnake's current cultivation is not weak, the bloodline has also increased by several levels, and there is still room for it to continue to rise, plus it is not as domineering as the golden python, the demon beasts are not angry for a while, and they gradually adapt to it, and the forest seems to be back as usual.
But when Mo Ghost read the message sent back, he always had a hunch that it was not so simple.
With the wisdom of this rattlesnake, there are few demon beasts that are its opponents, and Red Eagle's only chance is to kill it when it is seriously injured in a battle with the Golden Python, but unfortunately, Red Eagle had some scruples at that time.
Maybe it's because I'm afraid of the monsters that are still watching, or maybe I think the rattlesnake is not enough to be afraid of, but in short, I let the horse go.
But it can't be guaranteed, and it will be the next one to die.
