Last time, I said: Just when Xu Yuan and Guo Mofan were drinking together, Yan Kuo came to the door of the inn angrily, shouted a few words angrily, and shocked all the guests of the inn, as well as the shopkeeper and Xiao Er, he asked for a side room, and told Guo Mofan and Xu Yuan to go upstairs to talk, on the other hand, Wang Yixin was also asking the shopkeeper of the guest inn if he had found any suspicious people and the intention of the girl who came to the inn just now, but unfortunately they all came to nothing.

Yan Kuo's anger subsided slightly, but he still said sharply: "Xu Yuan, on weekdays, I said that you are a child, you still don't admit it, you don't think twice about doing things, everything depends on your own temperament, how can this be a big thing? Don't think I'll be so bored that I have nothing to say about you, I teach you a lesson, it's for your own good, you are the general of our Zhaoxian Pavilion, if you are framed by others with treacherous tricks, our Zhaoxian Pavilion has lost a strong combat power, how to deal with the Death Gate in the future." When Mo Fan heard Yan Kuo say this, he was displeased, and said: "Deputy Pavilion Master Yan, you and I have known each other for a while, how could I use treacherous tricks to frame Brother Xu Yuan?" Yan Kuo made a stop gesture and said coldly: "Brother Guo, what I said just now didn't mean you, I expect that in the future, if I know Xu Yuan's character, I will definitely make a plan in advance." Since you came with Xu Yuan today, I don't know if he told you about the task I told him. Xu Yuan hurriedly said: "Cold face, I didn't say it." Guo Mofan also nodded affirmatively and said, "Brother Xu Yuan kept it a secret and didn't say half a word to me. Yan Kuo took a heavy breath and said, "Whether he said it or not, I won't hide it from you today, I sent Xu Yuan out to let him monitor every move of the Dead Gate, and by the way, I also want to find out the spies hiding near our Zhaoxian Pavilion." Guo Mo Fan suddenly realized, and the doubts in his heart were also eliminated, and said: "I see, this matter is indeed confidential, no wonder Brother Xu Yuan refused to say more." Deputy Pavilion Master Yan, today's matter is my responsibility, and I am willing to accept all punishments and make up for my mistakes. Xu Yuan also said in a low voice: "Cold face, no, it's me who insists on comparing the amount of alcohol with Brother Guo, it's me who doesn't take care of myself, it's me who forgot your advice, if you want to punish me, punish me." Yan Kuo saw that the two of them said a word, he slapped the table and shouted, "Shut up for me!" The two immediately looked at him silently, Yan Kuo continued: "I tell you, you are all part of the Beijing Zhaoxian Pavilion now, the Zhaoxian Pavilion is good to eat and live to entertain you, and you are also willing to come to the Zhaoxian Pavilion to work for it, I hope you will not have a similar situation in the future, there will be absolutely no next time." Xu Yuan nodded affirmatively and said, "Okay, I promise you, with a cold face, I will never do this again in the future." Yan Kuo snorted coldly and said, "I hope you can remember what you said today, if you continue to indulge your character, you will suffer a great loss in the future." Xu Yuan whispered "oh", and Mo Fan sat silent.

Since Yan Kuo was not upright, he said: "Xu Yuan, brother, you can avoid the death penalty, but the living crime is unforgivable!" Xu Yuan looked at Yan Kuo with a little surprise and said, "Cold face, do you really want to punish us severely?" Yan Kuo frowned and said, "Yes, I have a more important task for the two of you." When Guo Mofan heard the word "task", he naturally knew that Yan Kuo would not inflict any other punishment, so he asked: "Deputy Pavilion Master Yan, Brother Xu Yuan and I will definitely do our best to complete the task you said." Xu Yuan was a little excited, and said in his heart: This cold face is really cold on the outside and hot on the inside, haha, this time it is considered to have escaped, I should pay more attention next time, he can be compared with the master when he is seriously angry.

Seeing that Xu Yuan didn't speak, Yan Kuo glared at Xu Yuan and said, "Xu Yuan, did you hear what I said?" Xu Yuan also nodded violently, Yan Kuo said: "The task of monitoring the Dead Earth Gate remains the same, as the saying goes, knowing oneself and knowing the other is the only way to survive a hundred battles, so this time, Brother Guo, you and Xu Yuan will go together to investigate the news of the Dead Earth Gate." The two of you are now supervising each other, before the task is completed and you report to me, you are not allowed to drink, you have to pay more attention to everything, can you do it?" Xu Yuan said first: "Yes, yes, I will definitely be able to complete the task this time, you can rest assured, cold face." Guo Mofan also said: "Deputy Pavilion Master Yan, I will pay more attention to my words and deeds, and I will also look at Brother Xu Yuan." Yan Kuo snorted coldly and said, "That's the best, if it weren't for Shi Yi coming to report to me the news that the two of you suddenly went out today, I would be very uneasy, so I came over to take a look." Almost, it made a big mistake. Xu Yuan nodded yes and said, "Okay, cold face, I know, let Brother Guo look at me, I will go with him to complete this mission, I will definitely be able to get twice the result with half the effort, and when we come back successfully, you must prepare wine to entertain us." Yan Kuo nodded in agreement and said, "Naturally, okay, you can stay here in the wing of this inn first, and pay more attention to the movements of the Dead Earth Gate." With that, he got up and went back. Guo Mofan said: "Deputy Pavilion Master Yan, don't you stay and eat something?" Yan Kuo said: "I'm not hungry, Brother Guo, you can come out for me." Guo Mofan nodded and followed him out, Xu Yuan also wanted to go out but was stopped by Yan Kuo.

Coming to the door, Yan Kuo looked downstairs and asked in a low voice: "Brother Kui, there are some things I didn't want to talk about. But why did you follow Xu Yuan to the capital this time, what is your purpose?" Guo Mofan looked at Yan Kuo and asked, "Deputy Pavilion Master Yan, are you doubting me?" Yan Kuo Zhengse said to him: "Yes, at this juncture, I do have doubts, I hope Brother Guo will give me a reasonable explanation, otherwise my suspicion of you will not be reduced." Guo Mofan said with a smile: "Since Deputy Pavilion Master Yan doubts me, why do you still tell me the task you ordered to Brother Xu Yuan, and why do you want me to participate in it, aren't you afraid that I will kill Brother Xu Yuan and destroy your plan?" Yan Kuo said with a straight face: "Because in my Yan Kuo's heart, I believe that you are a man, so I am willing to tell you what I just did, and I am more willing to hand over this important task to you to complete together." Guo Mofan said disdainfully: "Since Deputy Pavilion Master Yan said to believe me, why didn't he directly hand over the task to me at the beginning, but to the competitive and anxious Xu Yuan brothers?" Yan Kuo waved his hand and said, "In my heart, Xu Yuan's kid is indeed more reliable than you. Because, I have known Xu Yuan for a long time, and I have known you for a short time, so I give priority to letting Brother Xu Yuan complete the task. But after he made such a fuss, I also figured it out, so I let you go together, so that it would be more foolproof. Guo Mofan asked: "Deputy Pavilion Master Yan, in your heart, the level of trust in me is greater than the level of suspicion, right?" Yan Kuo said: "You know in your heart, I don't want to say more, I just hope you can clearly tell me the secret hidden in your heart." ”

After being silent for a while, Mo Fan finally spoke: "Originally, this is a secret of my sect, and I can't say anything about it, since Deputy Pavilion Master Yan trusts me to avoid suspicion, then I will tell you." Yan Kuo looked back at Guo Mofan and listened to him say, "I did come to the capital for the Death Gate. After thinking about it carefully, Yan Kuo said: "You are from the underground gate of the four factions outside the Guanwai, and this sect in the capital is called the Dead Earth Gate, could it be that there is a connection between this?" I came to the capital this time to investigate the whereabouts of our earthly treasures, the Vajra Knife and the Demon Soul Knife. Yan Kuo suddenly realized and said: "I see, the earth gate, the dead earth gate, hum, Wan Xingyun's old thief is not small. The Vajra Sword is in the hands of Wan Xingyun, and the Demon Soul Sword is in the hands of his son Wan Tianba, this is already an obvious thing, what else do you want to investigate?" Guo Mo Fan said: "I have confirmed that those two treasure knives are in the hands of their father and son, and my most important task this time is to wait for the opportunity to retrieve the treasure of our Earth Gate, so I must also carefully investigate every move of the Earth Gate." Yan Kuo said coldly: "I see, this matter is not easy to complete at present, life is at stake, there will be a chance in the future." Guo Mofan bowed his hand and said, "Thank you Deputy Pavilion Master Yan for reminding me." Yan Kuo patted him on the shoulder and said, "Brother Guo, this mission is handed over to you and him, look at him a little more." Guo Mofan nodded in agreement, and Yan Kuo carried his peerless broadsword on his back and left the inn quickly......
