Chapter 158: Vigilance

Zhao Ran persuaded Li Dayin, first ordered all the prisoners in the gambling house to be stuffed into the Fangtang prison, and then re-found Leng Tengxing, Liang Youhe, and a few Taoist priests who were guarding the prison, and asked in detail about the cause of the incident.

After asking, the matter was probably clear, it was a group of monks who did not know their origins, did not know the number, did not see their appearance, and could not distinguish their cultivation, taking advantage of the emptiness of the Xuantan Palace, to break in and empty the prison.

In fact, most of the people who ran away came back and surrendered themselves, and they were all people from the capital, so where could they run away? Besides, what they made was just a small mistake, and they could go home after being locked up for 10 days and half a month, and it was not worth running away at all.

Obviously, the purpose of these monks is not to rob the prison, so who is it?

Li Dayin said angrily that the Xuantan Palace had actually been attacked by a young person? This was the dignified capital! It was the highest institution in the jungle of the Ten Directions of Yingtianfu! It was the territory of the Sanmao Pavilion, the place where Master Shao Da Heavenly Master practiced! It was the place where the Yuanfu Palace was covered! As the palace envoy of the Yuanfu Palace, who was in charge of the upper three palaces, he felt incomprehensible and difficult to let go of this!

After reprimanding Liang Youhe, Li Dayin solemnly promised Zhao Ran that he would definitely give him an explanation.

Zhao Ran thought about it for a moment, but he still held back, and did not tell Li Dayin his tendentious opinions, in fact, he had already determined that the attack on the Xuantan Palace, at least eighty percent of the probability was done by the people in the Third Palace, the reason is very simple, they focused the attack on the Fangtang prison, and it was very likely that they wanted to find Gu Ke to learn from the apprentice.

The reason why he didn't tell Li Dayin was because his position did not allow it for the time being. The two pavilions are stepping up the interrogation of Gu Kexue's master and apprentice, the purpose is to destroy Xiu'an, and at a deeper level, it is to verify the true evidence of the emperor's practice, and the reason why the emperor is able to practice, whether it is the two pavilions or Zhao Ran himself, they all think that it must be related to Shao Datianshi and Chen Tianshi, as Chen Tianshi's descendant, what position should he take to talk about this matter with Li Dayin?

Zhao Ran even guessed that maybe Li Dayin actually knew that Gu Kexue was rescued by him, but he didn't find out. Or maybe there was a reason for Li Dayin's attack on the Xuantan Palace today? Could it be that he told the upper three palaces about the emptiness of the Xuantan Palace today?

Watching Li Dayin check around in the Fangtang prison, seriously questioning the demeanor of the people in charge of the prison, and listening to his interrogation of those who were released and then came back to surrender by himself, Zhao Ran was not sure of his judgment for a moment.

After Li Dayin interrogated for a while, he seemed to notice something, said goodbye to Zhao Ran with a dark face, and hurriedly left the Xuantan Palace. Zhao Ran looked at his back and disappeared around the corner of Xuantan Fang, and said to Pei Zhongxi: "Senior Sister Zhongxi don't go anywhere else during this time, except for the Purple Mountain Incense Burner Xuan, either go back to Baoyue Mountain Villa, or come to my Xuantan Palace." Whoever wants to ask you to go anywhere, try not to agree, and if you really can't shirk it, you must let me know first, and wait for me to hear before making a decision. ”

Pei Zhongxi acquiesced for a moment and asked, "Senior Brother Zhao, is someone going against us?"

Zhao Ran hesitated for a moment, but still replied to him: "Maybe it will be the third palace." ”

Pei Zhongxi asked: "Aren't they under the jurisdiction of the Li Yuan envoy?"

Zhao Ran shook his head: "The relationship between Yuanfu Palace and the Upper Third Palace is very delicate, and it is not what we wishfully think, the Upper Third Palace is at the mercy of the Yuanfu Palace in everything. Zhu Xianjian is not a person who is willing to let others press on his head. ”

Pei Zhonglu said: "Then I will listen to my senior brother, and I will stay in the three places of Xianglu Xuan, Baoyue Xuan and Xuantan Palace, and I will not go anywhere else!"

Luo Zhiqing, who had never said a word, suddenly spoke: "I'll move in with my junior brother today." ”

Zhao Ran said: "Senior brother still go back to Baoyue Villa, where the senior brother needs to preside over the contact, Tongjian and Ma Wangye also need the senior brother to take the lead, otherwise it will be difficult to inform them in case of emergency." As for me here, it should be quite stable, I really don't believe that the people of the Third Palace dare to blatantly attack me, and Chen Tianshi will not allow such a thing to happen. Besides, what I am best at is running, and I have been in the capital several times, and no one can do anything to me. ”

Luo Zhiqing thought for a while, nodded and said, "That's right." ”

Zhao Ran added: "So what I'm most worried about is the side of Baoyue Villa, I'm afraid that the monkeys will be targeted by the upper three palaces, and they will deliberately make something to disgust me." As he spoke, his mouth turned to Pei Xi's side.

Luo Zhiqing nodded and said, "I understand." ”

Zhao Ran sent Luo Zhiqing and Pei Zhongxi out of the city, and then advised: "Senior brother has a high prestige, bring these spirit demons well, and clench a fist, this is our means to save our lives in the capital." ”

Baoyue Villa is located outside the city, and it is Xu Zhenren's farewell, and gathering all the forces there is the best choice at the moment. As for the safety of his own family, Zhao Ran felt that it was not a problem at all, since the completion of the natal talisman sustenance, his escape ability should be the top in the entire Ming Dynasty, at the top level, if there is really a master who wants to kill him, he doesn't mind a real combat drill.

Luo Zhiqing said: "Senior brother be careful. ”

Pei Zhonglu also said: "Senior Brother Zhao, while it's still dark, go back early." ”

So the three of them said goodbye outside the cool door.

Zhu Longxi stared intently at the remote path at the foot of Qingliang Mountain, waiting for the target to appear. This path is the path that all the monks who pass through the city are accustomed to choosing, and for no other reason than that it is less crowded and convenient for moving quickly using spells. Just now, Zhao Zhiran, Luo Zhiqing, and Pei Zhongxi went west from this trail, and logically speaking, they should also return the same way.

According to the news fed back by the Lu brothers who hung far behind Zhao Zhiran, Zhao Zhiran walked back from this road, and it seemed that he was about to arrive. So Zhu Longxi recruited the Lu brothers back, put them on the northeast side, and tied the missing corner of the pocket tightly.

Two ** divisions, four Jindan mages, six Huang Guan, not including Zhu Longxi himself, such a lineup attacked Zhao Zhiran, Zhu Longxi felt full of confidence! Everything was ready, and Zhao Zhiran had already walked to the edge of his pocket, only the last point was missing.

When returning to the city from Qingliangmen and walking to the foot of Qingliang Mountain, Zhao Ran hesitated for a moment, habitually nodded Doudou once, and then chose to go to the fishing village outside Shuibo Gate to see how Gu Kexue confessed.

So he turned north and went out of the city again.

A cup of tea was drunk......

A pillar of incense burned out......

Two quarters passed......

Zhu Longxi couldn't hold it back, and motioned to the Lu brothers to go back and see why Zhao Zhiran hadn't arrived.

Soon, the Lu brothers came back to report that Zhao Zhiran's whereabouts had disappeared......
