Thirty years ago, the Southern Tang Dynasty had the appearance of rising, and the Northern Liang wanted to raise the power of the whole country to destroy the Southern Tang Dynasty.

The elite of the Traceless Sect who learned this news entered and exited, relying on the unique two major techniques of flying and probing in the sect, and in the case of the loss of hundreds of disciples and the almost collapse of the sect, they heard the distribution of the forces of the Northern Liang.

Later, he used this information to assist the Southern Tang army in setting up an ambush, and severely damaged the Northern Liang in one fell swoop, so that the Southern Tang Dynasty was spared from annihilation.

His Majesty Emperor Zhiwen of the Southern Tang Dynasty was grateful for the kindness of the Traceless Sect and vigorously supported the Traceless Sect, not only helping the Traceless Sect to recover its vitality, but also upgrading the sect to a first-class sect.

This is the first time in ancient and modern times that in order to block the mouths of this leisurely people, Emperor Zhiwen left a privilege for the Traceless Sect to legalize theft, and this privilege is the imperial order issued in the form of theft.

The emperor's order is difficult to disobey the paste, unparalleled in the world, this theft sticker, any treasure stolen, can not be investigated by law.

Speaking of this imperial order, there is another allusion.

When the previous old sect master of the Traceless Sect was young, he had three disciples, all of whom were extremely high-spirited and high-spirited, and the third disciple was the most eye-catching.

One day, Emperor Zhiwen went out on patrol and came to the Traceless Sect. Seeing the three disciples who couldn't help but brag about their friends countless times, they suddenly had the idea of testing it. So he took out his favorite night pearl and let the third disciple, who was still a minor at the time, steal it.

Who knew that the three disciples showed disdain and refused to make a move. Emperor Zhiwen asked him if he was afraid, but he said that the question was so simple that it was not interesting, because if he stole something, just like the imperial order issued by His Majesty, the item would inevitably fall into his hands and be difficult to disobey.

Emperor Zhiwen was aroused and didn't want to end it hastily, so the old sect master asked the eldest disciple with a steady personality to answer the question.

That night, Emperor Zhiwen stayed overnight in the Traceless Sect, put the Night Pearl close to him before going to sleep, and left ten guards in the bedroom to be responsible for guarding.

But even with such a tight guard, at dawn the next day, the Night Pearl was still gone.

Later, when Emperor Zhiwen rewarded the Traceless Sect, he remembered the words of the three disciples that day, and this was the emperor's order.

And those three disciples are the current helmsmen of the Traceless Sect, one of the eight people with the highest status in the rivers and lakes.

The emperor's order is difficult to disobey, and it is easy not to be born. However, the disciples of the Traceless Sect have developed the habit of sticking before each theft, and the style of these theft stickers is not necessarily the same, but without exception, each stolen sticker will inevitably be printed with the logo of the Traceless Sect. So much so that in recent years, there are often people who pretend to be the heirs of the Traceless Sect by stealing stickers.

The stolen sticker that Xue Zheng received before was printed with the mark of the Traceless Sect, he didn't know if it was true or not, but no matter what, he didn't dare to take it lightly.

Thinking of what was written on the letter, Wang Dang smiled dumbly and said: "This Xue Zheng is not as timid as the outside legend says, just after we left, I don't know where he found some helpers, and he will lure out the thieves tomorrow under the pretense of sending silver, once and for all." ”

"Didn't you say that he should wait for a while? What kind of decent master can this water town find?" Fan Guoqiang frowned. If that thief posted it was from a person who deceived the world and stole his name, it would be fine, but if it was really the handiwork of the Traceless Sect, let alone a small water town, even if he searched all over the boundary water city, no one would be his opponent.

The eight major sects have a long heritage, except for those disciples who have just started, but those who can enter and exit freely on the rivers and lakes, which one is not the Qi Acceptance Realm?

If you want to deal with the Naqi realm, I'm afraid there is only the Naqi realm.

Fan Guoqiang hesitated and said: "My lord, if I don't know the day, I will take a look, if something really happens, I can take care of it." ”

He meant to help a group of Xue Pavilion Masters who were in a hurry to go to the doctor, but who knew that the old man who had been escorted by him all the way waved his hand.

"Forget it, you and I don't want to go over. ”

Fan Guoqiang was puzzled: "Aren't you worried about the tax and silver accidents?"

"I'm worried about what's the use. Wang Dang sighed: "Xue Zheng's attitude is very resolute, and he repeatedly emphasized in the letter that we must not interfere so that we can atone for our crimes." It's getting late today, and you and I will stay here for the night, and we will return as soon as it dawns tomorrow. ”

There is no problem with doing your own thing, but the premise is that you have enough ability.

"My lord, isn't this Xue Zheng trying to deceive us and take us away so that he can guard and steal from him?" Fan Guoqiang suddenly thought of a possibility and exclaimed in surprise.

Twenty thousand taels of silver, this is such a huge amount, if it is lost for personal reasons, it is not too much to kill the head. Xue Zheng gave Fan Guoqiang the feeling that he was not like a person who dared to take risks, let alone a desperate bet.

Wang Dang shook his head and said, "If he really wanted to guard and steal himself, he should have done it a long time ago, why did he wait for us to come?"

"That's what I said!" Fan Guoqiang nodded, and then put away the luggage that he had just taken out again, preparing to leave early tomorrow morning.

Wang Dang watched Fan Guoqiang busy left and right, and gradually fell into contemplation, relying on the situation of the Water Martial Arts Pavilion, he had already understood before he came, Xue Zheng was not stupid or crazy, if he dared to fight the idea of tax silver, Wang Dang would never believe it, the only explanation was that the helper he found gave him great confidence.

"Where did this Xue Zheng find a helper?"

For this matter, Wang Dang did not have the idea of overly pursuing it, he came here this time just to find out the reason for the delay in the arrival of the tax silver, as for how to send the tax silver out, it was not his business.

The ups and downs of officialdom are like stepping on duckweed, especially those Beijing officials who are on errands in the imperial city, and the pressure is even greater. Let's just say that the court officials who fall into the officialdom every year because of carelessness may not be able to count them with one hand. Not to mention this turbulent era when His Majesty is about to abdicate now!

Nothing is trivial, and everything needs to be cautious.

These ten words are the cross mantra that Wang Dang has been an official for decades and finally summed up, and it is also his way of dealing with life as a cautious official.

It is precisely because of these ten words that Wang Dang, who is in the second grade, will come to Shui Town, and because of these ten words, he will leave here as soon as possible.

The 20,000 taels of tax silver has now become a hot potato. Although he has a cultivation of the Qi Realm, after decades of pampering, most of his martial arts have long been wasted. If the stolen post is fake, it's fine, if it's really from the handwriting of the Traceless Sect, there is a chance that he can't stop it. At that point, he had a hard time arguing.

Now Xue Zheng is going to take it all in, he is naturally happy to push the boat, and when the time comes, no matter what happens, it will have nothing to do with him.

Sending Yan Xingguan away, Xue Zheng leaned on the chair alone, and the position opposite him was the open door of the living room, and outside the door happened to be the black crystal that fell to the ground.

It wasn't until the little black man who went out to deliver the letter returned and told him that he woke up from this state of confusion.

For Xue Zheng, today's experience is too incredible.

First was a lord Wang who came all the way from Jieshui City, and then a master of the world who couldn't see the depth. Especially the appearance of that master, not only gave him a mention in martial arts, so that he faintly showed signs of improvement in cultivation, but also bent down to the nobles and took the initiative to help him solve problems.

The stolen sticker with the mark has been bothering him for more than two months. Now that this senior has made a move, no matter whether the hidden behind the theft sticker is the Traceless Sect or not, it can be perfectly solved. After all, it is the existence of being able to crush black crystals in one go, and I think I have already reached that realm!

The only pity is that this senior is a little arrogant, except for a few people he brought, he no longer let people interfere, and his idea of pulling the king into the water cannot be realized.

Wang Dang was not involved, the person in charge of this matter was still him, and in the event of an accident, the senior patted his ass and could say go. But what about him? He can't run if he wants to.

"No, I have to think about this again, and I can't put my hope entirely on that senior. ”

Xue Zheng stood up from his chair violently and walked back and forth uneasily around the living room, his eyebrows squeezed together like crumpled twine.

"The second brother's brain is better than mine, I'll ask him, maybe there's a way. ”

Thinking about it, Xue Zheng can only do this, since he can't think of a way to deal with it, finding someone to help him think about it is the only way, but it also responds to the sentence that there are many people and there is great power.

Xue Zheng's second brother is named Xue Qi, who is his sibling, and the difference between the two is no more than five years old.

Xue Zheng and Xue Qi were born in the war era, when they were very young, their parents died due to the war, and the brothers have been dependent on each other since childhood, and their relationship is very good.

The Xue brothers also had a good fate, and after their father died, they were adopted by an old warrior who retired due to injury.

The old warrior not only raised them, but also passed on his skills to them.

When the two brothers were successful in their studies, it was when the martial arts order was flourishing in the world, so the two went to Jieshui City to obtain the qualification of martial arts, and in the end, only Xue Zheng was tested.

The two of them were also content, not to make a name for themselves in the deep and muddy rivers and lakes, but to return to the water town overnight and live a down-to-earth life.

After that, there was a martial arts hall and a dart bureau in the town of Shui Shui, which were managed by the two brothers respectively.

Xue Qi's dart game is only a street away from the martial arts hall, and in the blink of an eye, it has arrived.
