The night is getting darker.

The occasional cold whirlwind that blew up, rolling up the wild grass in the cemetery, making a bleak squeezing sound, making people's backs slightly cold, Jiang Feng leaned on a stone carving nearly a foot high, feeling the residual warmth, rubbing the handwriting on it that had been dissolved by the years, they had long been blurred, and it was impossible to distinguish who was standing to pay tribute. It's just that some words can be distinguished, and the words "virtuous" and "brave" on it indicate that this person may be a noble existence in front of him.

Picking up the scattered thoughts, Jiang Feng carefully sorted out the matter of going south to plan the prefecture-level monk Sun Baotai from beginning to end. From discovering the existence of the problem, to planning and organizing the Helper Monks, to the various changes in Song Weiduo's tomb, as well as the sudden change in the situation caused by the failure of the Ruijin Gate, to the intervention of Su Liqing in the final stage, and the merger of the Asshan Sect through the marriage, the details, the people, things, things, and reasons involved, were investigated one by one to assess the possible impact of this matter.

Judging from the cause and effect before and after, since he discovered the problem of the Asa Mountain Sect Luochuan Great Array, he seems to have been in the game carefully set up by Su Liqing, and Sun Baotai should just be a chess piece of him, but this chess piece may have some ideas of his own, such as vainly trying to raid himself and kill his life in the poisonous spring swamp, turning passive into active. But at the critical juncture, it must have been stopped by Su Liqing, who was in control of the overall situation, and the latter suddenly appeared after he attacked and killed the Xuan-level monk of the Jincheng Sect who had been secretly manipulated, and stood on the moral high ground and trapped himself. Of course, this can only be achieved under the crushing of absolute strength, at the critical moment, he mobilized all the prefecture-level monks of the Jincheng faction, and invited an additional Chamber of Commerce Jin Dan to join, and took advantage of the old friendship of the president of the Spirit Cage Chamber of Commerce to persuade many monks of the Spirit Cage Chamber of Commerce to stop the war.

If it weren't for the pseudo-heaven-level monk Wan Yuting who tried in vain to establish the "Qingyu Sect", and the sudden appearance of the Yuanying Tongguang of the "Tianyin Temple", and the fighting method would have affected everyone, then Su Liqing's plan would have been successful, and now he is probably trapped in the Jincheng faction, and what he can do is to cooperate with the Jincheng faction to act and collect the Qianshan Sect, I am afraid that he can only cultivate in the tightly monitored cave.

In addition, he was later taken away by the two Yuan Babies of Tianluomen and trapped in Bailing Villa, if it weren't for the fact that the Hundred Medicine Old Immortal recognized himself as a doppelganger of the True Spirit Sage and protected himself in advance, I am afraid that the secret of the Ancient Treasure Tower of Eternity would also be exposed, and it is not yet known whether he will die because of this.

At first glance, these are all luck factors, but when you calm down and analyze, everything is due to strength.

Sun Baotai thought that he was at the ground level and his strength surpassed his own, so he wanted to attack and kill himself in the hometown of Heishuimen, so as to disrupt Su Liqing's layout, and take advantage of the chaos of the Asshan Sect for his own use, and he misjudged that he could mobilize forces far beyond the strength of the other party to take advantage of the situation to counterattack, but after encountering Su Liqing, who was stronger and had more cooperation value, the fragile alliance became vulnerable. And Su Liqing, who planned this matter, was in front of the pseudo-heaven-level Wan Lao Mo and Tianyin Temple Yuanying Tongguang, although he would not die on the spot, but if he was not careful, he was escaped by himself.

Although Huang Que was a strong monk in the Tianluo Gate Yuanying Monk, and his brothers worked together to catch themselves and the other three, and he also had the idea of watching from the wall and looking for an opportunity to weaken Tianyin Temple, but under certain circumstances, he was still deceived by the Hundred Medicine Old Immortals, the believers of the True Spirit Sage, and covered up the secret, but the Hundred Medicine Old Immortals relied on not the gift of the "Dragon"? If there was no long life span given by the True Spirit Sage clone, with his qualifications, no matter how brilliant the Danding technique was, it might just be a line of text on the stone tablet behind him.

It's just that there are still doubts about why the old immortal of the hundred medicines is willing to serve the True Spirit Sage, including the other two "same kind of people" he mentioned, Lu Zhongxian of Huadi Gate, and Qing Daozi of Yefan Kingdom, in a similar situation, what is the plan, the so-called no profit, only from the analysis of the instinct of scheming, there must be a secret in this, this point, can not condense the "soul melting bead" of himself, did not ask at the time, maybe "soul melting bead" It is a mystery in itself, and these may be able to unravel the mystery at the secret gathering on January 28 next year.

It's just that before this trip, maybe you need to find a way to cover up the existence of the ancient treasure, otherwise, if Lu Zhongxian or any of the Qing Daozi people break the secret of the Tower of Eternity, they may have to worry about their lives, in the case of not meeting, Jiang Feng can only assume that the other party has malicious intentions, in terms of strength, they are not like the old immortals of the hundred medicines and themselves, only the Xuan level, they belong to the existence that can crush themselves.

Sighing lightly, strength is still the most important determining factor in the monk world, Jiang Feng's desire to improve his cultivation has become more eager, if this battle can get out of danger safely and return to the Qianshan Sect, after solving the critical problem of the spirit stone, I am afraid that he will have to think about going to the West Sea Spirit Ruins in advance.

The "Dream Demon Heart Pill" has arrived, and all that remains is the right time.

Compared with the lessons brought by this incident and the losses caused by the death of Lei Youqi, the consequences of the Jincheng faction's attempt to make this attack are more serious.

Rui Jinmen broke the contract at a critical moment, indicating that they reached a certain sense of cooperation with the Jincheng faction through the channel of foreign affairs, and then decided to sacrifice themselves in exchange for the support of the other party, this is very likely to be related to a third party, such as the Imperial Wind Sect, although there is no intelligence to corroborate, but Jiang Feng faintly guessed that this condition is to cooperate with the blocking of the trade route of the Imperial Wind Sect, once the Jincheng faction agrees to this matter, then the only remaining trade route of the Imperial Wind Sect is the Imperial Wind Sect to the Asakan Sect, and then the Ashala Sect will be transported to the Chixia Gate, and the passage to the south of the Chixia Gate is half blocked by the Jincheng faction

In terms of interests, it is another big blow.

As far as the Qianshan Sect is concerned, after this battle, the relationship with the Jincheng faction will most likely drop to the freezing point, unless Su Liqing and himself are spit on their own and treat each other as if nothing happened, although for the sake of the sect, Jiang Feng asked himself if he could barely do this, the so-called "cold at the top and hot at the bottom", and Su Liqing's contacts were interrupted, but business could still be done, but what kind of attitude Su Liqing would adopt was still unknown.

Su Liqing naturally wouldn't let go of his suspicions because Jiang Feng sent him a "Shouteng" that could replenish Shouyuan, Jiang Feng didn't think so, and Su Liqing didn't promise, in exchange for just a verbal agreement with Pu Tiexin, now that he thinks about it, he was focused on his own safety at that time, and his calculations were very inappropriate, maybe it was the right choice to let him make a soul oath, if he changed positions with Su Liqing, maybe he would be old and blackmail himself with some conditions.

In this regard, there are still many places to learn, their own hearts, or too easy to be disturbed by external factors, maybe the strong at the top of the cliff, still able to turn the tide, surprisingly winning, relying on this meticulousness and calmness.

Sighing lightly, he said in his heart After this incident, if Su Liqing chooses to confront directly, then Donghu County, as well as Tuqiao Town and the entire eastern part adjacent to the Jincheng faction will be greatly affected, and for the Jincheng faction, the impact is controllable, after all, he can cut off the supply of the western Lizong, and instead rely on the trade routes of the eastern power Qi State, and even in Bailing Villa, he has preliminarily reached a cooperation with Tianluomen, after the fall of the Great Wei Kingdom, there is one more trade route to the south to the sea, and this trade route that eventually leads to the southern land of Tianyuan will inevitably be very rich。 As for those few interests of the Asa Mountain Sect, even if they simply give up, I'm afraid there won't be any pain.

When you think about it, it seems that the situation is precarious.

The partial severance of the eastern trade route will affect the interests of himself and the Lingling Chamber of Commerce, the Changning Chamber of Commerce, the partners of Lizong and the Zhong family, and the Lingling Chamber of Commerce may be exempted because of Su Liqing's commitment, but the Changning Chamber of Commerce and other partners may inevitably become victims. The only thing to be thankful for is that if the Kaneshiro faction also joins the ranks of blockading the Imperial Wind Sect, then the relationship between the Asama Sect and the Imperial Wind Sect will become even closer as a result.

It's just that there doesn't seem to be much to be gained in this.

Under the whole world, the interests are the greatest, think about Ruijinmen betraying himself, getting a better situation, changing himself, I don't know what kind of choice he will make, Jiang Feng took out the "Thousand Miles Yin-Yang Mirror", and repeatedly wanted to write something to Li Yufeng of Ruijinmen, but after thinking about it, what should I write?

Scolding, condemning, or reasoning?

Betrayal is betrayal, what is there to talk about, if Ruijinmen is simply, it can be said that the situation has changed, if it is shameless, it can be deduced that the monk has not yet arrived, if it is cunning, it can be said that I will help you mediate the relationship, say a thousand ways and ten thousand, when the matter comes to this field, there is nothing to be entangled, if there is a need for cooperation, the two sides have to continue to talk to each other, if there is a chance to fight, Jiang Feng will not hesitate to stab them in the back to avenge today's revenge.

Thinking of the mediation relationship, if it is really bad with the Jincheng faction, to the extent that the trade route is cut off, for the Assayama sect that is still developing, it will indeed do more harm than good, maybe it really needs a Chinese person to mediate, but this candidate, who is better to choose?

Jiang Feng decided to observe this matter for a while before deciding, maybe the situation was not as bad as imagined. Li Yufeng, if you really need him to mediate, then let him come.

There is no eternal enemy, as the scoundrel Fang Jinlu of the Fang family said, if you can't kill me, then we can still be friends, but the conditions have to be discussed separately. The hatred and old grudges in these past things, Jiang Feng thought to himself that he would never forget, but don't let him lose more in the short term because he is lost and has no strength to anger.

Maybe this is maturity, Jiang Feng couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion, and then remembered that Li Yufeng had visited Nuangu County, and suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, this Li Youde will not be rebelled by Li Yufeng, and at this time when he is away, what will he do in secret, right?

............

Asayama sect, Warm Valley County.

Li Youde was looking at a silver plate presented by the maid with a sad face, with five red lacquered wooden plaques facing upwards on it, sighed in his heart, and reluctantly flipped one at random.

"Study"

The words on the wooden sign were clearly revealed, the corners of Li Youde's mouth were slightly upturned, and his slightly sunken eyes had a little more brilliance, and his mood suddenly improved a lot, "Let's study in the study today, there are just a lot of things to deal with." ”

"Master, you have been resting in the study yesterday, and according to the new rules, you need to turn over another sign. The chubby maid whispered a reminder, but her attitude seemed to be very resolute.

What? I promised such a rule?

The look in Li Youde's eyes suddenly dissipated, and his body couldn't help but tremble slightly, "Eh, I occasionally felt cold last night and was not in good spirits, so let's rest for another night." ”

"Yes, sir, but sick leave is only once a month, are you sure you want to use it tonight?" The fat maid raised her head and asked, a light smile appeared on Wei Shi Fandai's face, as if she was secretly sending Qiu Bo, but it was more like mockery, sir, you must have that heart, and you don't have that body.

"That's it, let's go down first. ”

dismissed the maid, Li Youde said in his heart that he would take a day off first, and then talk about it, it's okay this month

Halfway has passed, there is still one day of "town guard official leave" that can be requested, and it should be passed. Thinking of this, his eyes were black again, and he quickly pinched a few secret pills and carefully contained them, and when the medicinal power was dispersed, he used spiritual power to cleanse his whole body, and his spirit was much better.

"Fifth uncle, you've been slacking off lately. A voice came from the back hall, but it was Li Wen, "If this continues, I'm afraid that I won't be able to get more of the old lady's reward this year." ”

"Hmph," Li Youde leaned back weakly, "Aren't you already pregnant with two, don't be too greedy, if you tire me to death, you will be beaten with chickens and eggs." ”

"Fifth uncle, I don't feel happy to hear this," Li Wen's old face squeezed out a faint smile, "Lingshi is your big head, and I am friendly, but I only take the routine reward." ”

"Hey, forget it. ”

Li Youde knew that what the other party said was reasonable, and when he gave birth to an heir, the old lady would reward him, and it was indeed almost exclusive to him, but together with his original savings, most of them he lent to Li Yufeng, after all, the other party had something, and the favor that saved his life before couldn't be repaid, but he couldn't talk more to Li Wengu and Li Youyou, so he shirked and said, "I'll take a day off, you have such a big opinion." When Li Yufeng visited before, you forgot what he said to criticize you?"

"Of course I haven't forgotten, of course we understand the difference between master and servant, but the ugliness of the family can't be publicized, and it's a guest from afar, so I didn't reason with him in public. ”

“......”

"Other, Fifth Uncle, you borrowed his twelve fourth-order pieces, when will he pay them back?"

"Uh, uh, this," Li Youde's face instantly turned red, and said, how could Li Wen know about what happened when he and Li Yufeng were alone, but he immediately missed this embarrassing topic, "Anyway, Li Yufeng persuaded me, if the Assayama Sect is in turmoil, find a way to replace it, what do you think?"

"Don't even think about it. ”

"Why?"

"Because of your lack of prestige, Fifth Uncle, the people of Warm Valley County do have a lot of respect and trust for you, but if you want them to join you in the rebellion, it is still impossible, not to mention how can a bunch of ordinary people become a big thing? There are only a few monks here. At most, it can add a little chaos to Jiang Feng. ”

"That's right, although it may be cooler to be the head of the sect, but I'm afraid my current cultivation is still too low, at least at the ground level to be able to take charge of a world, and the cultivation time every month is always not enough. ”

"Fifth uncle, this matter does not conflict with the heir. ”

Li Wengu instantly broke through Li Youde's trap of going around and around, knowing that he wanted to have more free time, but now it is different, because of the chaos in the Imperial Wind Sect, the Li family has moved a lot of Dingkou, and all the supplies are paid by Li Youde. The monks in the clan who followed, the supply of spirit stones has always been maintained at a high level, after all, this is the old lady's regulations that cannot be changed, but Li Youde usually spends money lavishly, and more importantly, he has borrowed a huge amount of money to Li Yufeng without returning, and the salary of the county guard is simply not worth mentioning compared to these expenses, so if you can't throttle, you can only open source, so that Li Youde can find a way to give birth to more heirs and prepare for the future in advance, which has become the only choice.

"If it is really like the news given by Li Yufeng the day before yesterday, Jiang Feng is very likely to have an accident, so how should we choose?" Although he is not at home, Li Youde is not stupid, knowing that Li Wen is worried about him, or because of the mundane matter of Lingshi, he is no longer entangled, in fact, he is in good health, but he is a little tired of the old people, so he pretends to be tired and hides idlely.

"That can't be reversed. Li Wengu threw out a flying boat magic weapon, "From this point of view, I think there is no better place in the whole world, unless you want to be the head." ”

"That's right. Li Youde picked up this flying boat, this may only be worth a half-third-order flying magic weapon, the workmanship is not bad, and even the means of refining the weapon are also very clever, but the quality is really average for him. However, this is a flying sword given by the sect, as a town guard, he is naturally qualified to obtain it, and the head Jiang Feng did not save himself because of his generosity, this fairness and selflessness are indeed commendable.

"Didn't I reward you?"

"When you go to Luochuan to handle official business, you still have to keep a low profile. So you have to use this flying boat. ”

"You mean, let me go to Luochuan to investigate?"

"That's right, then Li Yufeng can't believe it, but he can't believe it either. If Jiang Feng really loses, although we are not interested in the position of the head of the house, we can't suffer a loss. ”

"Makes sense. Li Youde raised his head and closed his eyes to meditate for a moment, straightened out the past with the sect and the intersection with Jiang Feng from the beginning, and sighed a lot, maybe there is really no such master in the world, but I, Li Youde, although I convince people with virtue, I must also know how to move with the camera.

Jiang Feng, you can't blame me for this, of course, if you have nothing to do, I have the right to take a casual look at the scenery, and Luo Chuan has not been there for a long time, maybe you can use the excuse to stay for a few more days.

"I have arranged for the Fourth Lady to go with you. ”

“......”

Li Youde's originally cheerful mood was not so refreshing in an instant.

............

In the dark night, Jiang Feng, who had been pondering for a long time, opened his eyes, there were many things, the environment was not good, and it was indeed difficult to sleep here.

He suddenly remembered that the old immortal of the hundred medicines had given him a pill for the spirit of the black snake, which might be able to enhance spiritual intelligence, the "Jade Burning Heart Pill", was now empty, so it was better to give it a try.
