Chapter 541 I have a small favor
Jiang You'er hurried back to the sacred mountain and headed straight to the North Mountain Center. After meeting Huang Ye on the second floor, he urgently reported: "In Dazhi City, even the people in the library were arrested. Not a single one was left out, including the people we planted there to do odd jobs."
Huang Ye thought about it and didn't care too much. "It's okay. She's just a handyman. Her background is clear and can withstand investigation. There won't be any problem."
Then he changed the subject, "Has Yin Tian Lu recruited yet?"
He was obviously more concerned about this at the moment.
Jiang You'er said, "He has no choice but to confess. There are ways to force him to speak. He has already confessed. The Jihuo Sect has indeed discovered a secret of Situ Gu. They said that Situ Gu's new female disciple is neither human nor demon. She is not someone from the outside world who came to the Divine Fire Domain to attend the meeting, but a fire spirit in the Divine Fire Domain incarnated."
"The fire spirit has transformed?" Huang Ye was quite surprised. It sounded a bit hazy and confusing, so he hurriedly said, "Explain the situation in detail."
Jiang You'er took out a stack of confessions and handed them over, "The details are all in there."
Huang Ye took it immediately and sat beside the couch, flipping through the pages carefully. What was written in it was exactly how Hei Hu, a disciple of Jihuo Sect, smelled out that Zhen'er was a fire spirit, and also how Shi Chun and Zhen'er were hugging each other and their relationship seemed unusual.
After reading it for a while, Huang Ye carefully considered the whole thing from beginning to end, and then he murmured, "So that's it... Why did Situ Gu accept that Fire Spirit as his disciple? There must be some reason behind it, and it seems that Shi Chun knows it."
Jiang You'er nodded, "So the Jihuo Sect wanted to capture Shi Chun and dig out the secret so that they could use it against Situ Gu and obtain the secret method to find the divine fire. At first, they wanted to observe why Shi Chun came here, thinking there was something fishy, but they found that he was slippery, so they planned to attack directly, but they still couldn't stop him, so they had to force it like this. Now, they don't even know where Shi Chun has gone."
Huang Ye shook the confession in his hand and said, "There is another person who knows the secret, Situ Gu's Fire Spirit disciple. Even if we can't find Shi Chun, it is still a direction for the higher-ups to start."
Jiang You'er pointed at the confession and said, "The Jihuo Sect also thought about this, but Situ Gu seemed to be keeping a close eye on that female disciple, so it was not easy to find an opportunity to take action."
Huang Ye said disapprovingly, "We can't always keep him by our side. There will always be times when we can't watch him. Besides, that's not our concern. We just need to guard our own piece of land. The higher-ups will take care of the rest. It's a credit that we can provide this information."
After he finished speaking, he just put away the confession, then suddenly paused, took out a talisman and examined it. He was obviously shocked after reading it and stood up in shock.
Jiang Youer asked: "What's wrong?"
Huang Ye said in a muffled voice: "Something big happened in Dazhi City!"
Jiang You'er was puzzled. "Isn't it just that the Jihuo Sect is arresting people over there? Is there anyone resisting?"
Just as he finished speaking, a loud shout came from downstairs, "Lord, Lou Xiu, the chief of the inner court of Yaoshan City, wants to see you."
Huang Ye responded, "Let him come up."
Soon, Lou Xiu came running over in a panic, reporting: "Sir, something big happened in Dazhi City. The Jihuo Sect has expanded the scope of arrest and arrested the entire family of Chaoyue Pavilion. As a result, the people from the Demon Queen came in person with the "Flower Order". The rumors are true, the owner of the library is indeed related to the Demon Queen. Now it's not the people from the Jihuo Sect and Shenshan who are interrogating them, but the people from the Demon Queen who are interrogating them."
As he spoke, he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. His face did not look good and he was obviously out of control. In fact, he was just scared.
Last time, he also did something dirty to Chaoyue Pavilion. I wonder if he will be discovered.
When Huang Ye transferred him here before, he had scolded him for this, saying that a family that could afford such a large house in a good location in a big city would not move around carelessly without knowing the situation. Now it seems that what the Lord said was right.
"The Demon Queen's 'Flower Order'?" Jiang You'er was shocked and looked at Huang Ye. He understood what he meant by "something big happened in Dazhi City". He was a little bit unbelievable. "Even if the Demon Queen wanted to protect the family in the library, couldn't she just send someone to deal with it secretly? Isn't it too high-profile to use the 'Flower Order' in a small Dazhi City?"
Huang Ye shook his head slightly, "Who knows what they are thinking, but I think it has nothing to do with us. The ones who are trembling with fear now should be those on the mountain and the Jihuo Sect."
Lou Xiu hurriedly asked, "Sir, will the incident at the library be uncovered?"
Huang Ye scolded, "That matter has passed, and what needs to be dealt with has been dealt with. You like to keep making it endless, don't you?"
"No, no." Lou Xiu waved her hands hurriedly, but she felt a lot more at ease after being scolded like that.
"Go and do your own thing!" Huang Ye shouted.
After Lou Xiu nodded and left, Huang Ye whispered to Jiang You'er, "There is only one person coming from the Demon Queen's side right now. He can't accomplish anything by himself and he doesn't seem to be here to investigate the case. If more people come later, you have to be careful. If the Demon Queen really wants to dig deeper for the library, you should try to avoid unnecessary complications if possible..." He tilted his head and raised his chin towards the departing figure of Lou Xiu outside the window.
Jiang You'er took a look and understood, and said: "I will keep a close eye on it. By the way, how do we deal with Yin Tianlu?"
Huang Ye: "You didn't expose yourself in front of him, did you?"
Jiang Youer: "No, we didn't let them see our true appearance."
Huang Ye: "Then let's wait and see what happens."
It was just as what was said here, the sacred mountain was shaking.
After receiving the news from Dazhi City, Qiu Ben also suspended the interrogation of the White Tiger Clan, and left the mountain urgently with the Saint Girl and rushed to Dazhi City.
Qiu Ben had to go. The people sent by the Demon Queen discovered something strange after a little inquiry. It would be fine if the city guards of Dazhi City arrested people for interrogation, but who are you, the Jihuo Sect? What qualifications do you have to intervene in the interrogation as an interrogator?
This matter can be big or small, in short, it is a violation.
On the surface, whether it is Dazhi City or Yaoshan City, whether it is the sphere of influence of the Phoenix Clan or not, that is all under the table. On the surface, they are all under the official sequence of the Xiniu Hezhou Royal Court. If anyone dares to say it is not, the Royal Court will definitely send troops to suppress the rebellion!
The people sent by the Demon Queen are already investigating the matter.
Therefore, before the Goddess and Qiu Ben rushed to Dazhi City, they had already sent urgent messages to the Jihuo Sect and the Phoenix Clan respectively.
The Demon Queen was alarmed. Without someone of considerable importance to step forward, the two of them would not be able to control the situation, and the situation could be overturned at any time.
Only if someone can meet the Demon Queen and explain things to her, and she doesn't care, can the matter be suppressed and not made a big deal.
It was precisely because of this unusual incident that the interrogation of the Bai family on the sacred mountain was suspended. In addition, with the departure of the goddess and Qiu Ben, Yin Fei, one of the three major mountain patrols in the central area, found an opportunity to transfer some of the people guarding Grandma Qi and appeared in front of Grandma Qi in the name of surveillance.
Without anyone around, Yin Fei immediately whispered, "We have a lot of acquaintances on guard here, and we had strict control before we took action. The incident happened suddenly, and I didn't find a chance to inform you. Grandma, someone may come at any time."
Grandma Qi understood what he meant. Since there was not much time left for the two of them to talk, she immediately asked, "What's the situation now?"
"Something happened in Dazhi City, which alarmed the Demon Queen..." Yin Fei first quickly recounted the shocking changes in Dazhi City.
Grandma Qi was also amazed when she heard this. She didn't expect that a small library would alarm the Demon Queen. She didn't know how close Wang Ping was to the library, but she was not more concerned about this now. She asked again, "Are the other members of the Bai family okay?"
Yin Fei shook her head solemnly and said, "The interrogation is going very badly. The Jihuo Sect will not stop until they get the information they want. They will torture them until they speak. Do they know something they shouldn't know?"
Grandma Qi pursed her lips and answered irrelevantly: "Where is the girl in the rice shop?"
Yin Fei said in embarrassment: "I heard that she was also severely punished, but compared to this side, she is still relatively good. After all, she is your granddaughter. Whether it is Po Yuan or Li Xianghong, they did not let the Jihuo Sect do too much. Maybe the goddess gave them instructions in private."
Grandma Qi paced back and forth for a few steps, and after thinking for a while, she asked him for a jade tablet, wrote down the names of several tribesmen, and handed it to him, saying, "The incident happened suddenly, and I was transferred away. I didn't have time to prepare. In order to prevent them from tarnishing their own tribe, I can only wrong them and shut them up forever. You think of a solution."
She wrote down the names of the tribesmen who knew that Gao Heyou was brought to the sacred mountain by her, as well as the names of some people who were aware of related events.
In other words, she still refuses to give up that evil book.
Yin Fei took the list and nodded even though she looked a little embarrassed.
Grandma Qi asked again: "Can you get my Qiankun bag?"
Yin Fei shook her head, "Your things are kept by Feng Jue, I can't touch them."
Grandma Qi: "It's okay. You secretly send a secret letter to the proprietress of Zhulang Pavilion and tell her to tell Gao He one sentence. You must remember this sentence: No two pieces of wood will be wasted, and the cooperation will continue.
The same thing, try to tell Huang Yingying from the Golden Rat Clan."
The Jihuo Sect suspected that Yin Xu helped Shi Chun and the other two leave. Her Bai family also sent people to watch outside Zhulang Pavilion and had the same suspicion, so they thought that Yin Xu might be able to contact Gao He.
It was just a suspicion, so he made an extra preparation with Huang Yingying. Didn't Huang Yingying say that Gao He had a way to save him?
Yin Fei was confused by what he said, but she still nodded after repeating it twice, "I've got it."
"Also, go find someone from the Bai family and get a magical weapon from the Jihuo Sect, and make some noise..."
The top of Dashicheng Mountain.
The matter was almost settled, and the family of Dong Wenshu, who had been acquitted, were about to go down the mountain when suddenly someone came and stopped Dong Wenshu, asking him to go alone.
This move made the family nervous again.
Dong Wenshu, on the contrary, became calm and followed without any concern.
After entering a pavilion, he saw the old man in black who could make the city lord and others kneel down.
He knew that he must be an important person. He asked the person's name before, but the person refused to tell him. When they said goodbye, he could only bow politely.
The old man in black didn't beat around the bush. "I have a small favor to ask, sir. I wonder if you can agree to it?"
Dong Wenshu bowed again and said, "I have no way to repay you for saving my life. If it is something I can do, I will do my best."
The old man in black: "I have learned a lot about the reputation of Chaoyue Pavilion for its collection of books. To be honest, every family has its own problems. I have a distant relative who is used to being lazy and just needs some education in books. I heard that the Demon Queen once studied under your ancestor, which shows that Chaoyue Pavilion is a blessed place. So I decided to send her to work in your library to do odd jobs so that she can be influenced by it."
Dong Wenshu was speechless, and he really couldn't hold back a bitter smile, "Old sir, to be honest, I am short of money, and I really can't afford to hire your relatives."
The old man in black waved his hand, "Money is secondary. Give her the same amount as you give to others. She is not short of money. The main thing is to let her be influenced by you so that she can get some of the influence of the Demon Queen and arrange her future. Besides, she has some accomplishments. With her in the library, if she encounters such a thing again in the future, at least it will be convenient for her to contact me. Of course, this is my personal matter. I will arrange a suitable identity for her. I hope you don't make it public."
