Chapter 67

In front of the Yuelong Inn, a slender woman with a black hat on her head looked around for a while. Seeing that there was no one around, she hurried in, ignoring the shouts of the innkeeper and went straight to a guest room on the second floor. A handsome man also came to this room.

"How is it? Has the transmission note been delivered?" the man asked after closing the door.

The man is none other than He Yingqing, the second son of the He family. These days, he has been staring at the gate of Jingbei Mansion until he saw his maid come out.

In recent years, with the expansion of the He family's influence, the interests of the Xu family have been seriously threatened. Although the two sides have maintained a superficial harmony, the private struggle has become more and more fierce. .After reporting on the misdeeds of the Xu family for so many years, I want to use the hands of Yi Zong to get rid of the Xu family and use a knife to kill.

Since it is to kill with a knife, it is natural not to be noticed, otherwise, the Xu family will counterattack madly. Even if the Xu family is removed, their vitality will be severely damaged, and they will be trampled by the other families.

"Back to the second young master, Immortal Master Tang has been practicing in seclusion a few days ago, and he didn't go out until today. I handed the immortal talisman to the Immortal Master while no one was there," the woman said.

She is an orphan who was adopted by the He House since she was a child. She studies piano, chess, calligraphy and painting every day. She is like a lady. There are many maids like her in the He House. As a maid, she is naturally the righteous daughter of Master He Maocai in name. In fact, he has only seen Master He Fu a few times in the past ten years.

"Are you sure no one saw it?"

"No, Tang Xianshi opened a new house in the back mountain of the mansion, and I went on a tour with Zhao Guang Xianshi. I took advantage of Zhao Xianshi's departure before delivering the fairy talisman to him."

He Yingqing: "Then what did he say?"

"No, I delivered the fairy talisman to Immortal Master Tang and left, and then I found an opportunity to leave Jingbei Mansion all the way here."

"I see, you go back! Remember not to tell anyone about this."

"The maid understands."

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

At night, Tangning didn't tell anyone. She left the Jingbei Mansion and drove straight to Xuanhua County with a flying sword. Dongwei Building is located in Xuanhua County. Poems are right, but today there is no one.

A notice was posted outside the door saying that the shopkeeper of Dongwei Building was entertaining distinguished guests and temporarily closed to outsiders.

The entire lane is under martial law, and no one is allowed to enter.

He didn't want to cause a commotion in the county town, so he got off Feijian in a place where no one was there. He was about to find someone to find out where the Dongwei Building was, but he didn't expect someone to be waiting for him, but a man greeted him and said: "He Yunlin welcomes Mr. Tang, and my father is waiting in the building."

"Let's lead the way!" Tangning followed him around a corner and entered an alley. Several monks from the He family stood on both sides of the alley, and it was strictly forbidden for idlers to enter.

In fact, the moment he received the message of He Maocai's voice transmission, he thought about whether it might be a trap. After all, He Wenwen was killed and disappeared in an unclear manner, and he should maintain a certain degree of vigilance against the monks in Jingbei.

But he relies on his ability, as long as his opponent is not a foundation-building cultivator, even if there is an ambush, it will not be difficult to escape, and he expects that He Maocai will not be so daring.

"Director Tang is really a promise-keeper, please take your seat." He Maocai greeted him at the door.

"What is it that has made it so mysterious, it has to take a lot of trouble to come here, Daoyou He can talk about it now!"

He Maocai winked, and He Yunlin walked out and stayed at the door of the house.

"It's really important, so I have to be more cautious. Forgive Director Tang, since the last time we left the high mansion, Director Tang's words are still in my ears. After thinking about it, I decided to tell the whole thing that I don't feel unpleasant in my heart. Regarding the murder and disappearance of Director He, I do know some insider information, if my expectations are correct, then the Xu family must have murdered him."

Tangning's expression didn't change, she picked up the glass in front of her and took a sip, "Daoyou He, who has taken so much trouble, won't tell Tang that it's good based on your expectations, right?"

He Maocai said: "Director Tang, please listen to me, the Xu family has colluded with the Mozong, and Jingbei has to hand over [-] bigu pills to Qian Yizong every year. I and other seven families have their own divisions of labor, and the Xu family must be completed according to regulations. Four thousand. To tell you the truth, Jingbei is indeed privately planting the spirit herbs for refining bigu pills. Do you know which company manages these spirit herbs? It's the Xu family."

"Four thousand every year? As far as I know, their family refines no more than ten thousand every year, and who do you think he sells the remaining six thousand bigu pills to? They were all bought by Mozong. Xu Qingxian has three brothers, the second brother Xu Weicai. In the early years, he ran away from home and joined the Demon Sect, and the Xu family has been disconnected and colluded with them all these years."

Tangning didn't rush to express her position. He was also dubious about He Maocai's words. He secretly eavesdropped on the conversations of several families a few days ago, and had a little understanding of their respective conflicts. The family has always wanted to replace the Xu family.

And the Xu family!They are also deliberately suppressing the He family. The two sides have a lot of grievances. He Maocai is right. Several families in Jingbei have their own divisions of labor. The Xu family is in charge of the bigu pill. Dan is very profitable on this one.

"You said that Junior Brother He was murdered by the Xu family? Just because the Xu family colluded with the Demon Sect? I'm afraid this is too hasty! Even if the Xu family colluded with the Demon Sect, it does not mean that Junior Brother He was murdered by the Xu family. , killing Junior Brother He will not do them any good."

He Maocai said: "What if the principal found out that the Xu family has colluded with the Demon Sect? Isn't it reasonable that the Xu family is worried that he will report to your sect that he will destroy the family and kill him?"

"It's possible, but the sect sent me to find out about the murder of Junior Brother He. I can't conclude that Junior Brother He was killed by the Xu family based on your own words. Everything you said is just your subjective guess. The Xu family is convicted without evidence."

"It's natural. One month before Mr. He disappeared, he had a big fight with Xu Qingxian in the Xu residence. Mr. He threatened to take out three thousand spirit stones from the Xu residence, or else he would report the matter of the Xu residence colluding with the Demon Sect."

"Oh? Really? How did you find out?"

He Maocai took out an ink-colored talisman. Tangning naturally recognized it as a phonograph. He was able to record the sound. He Maocai tapped the talisman, and a faint light appeared in the talisman, and a voice came out.

The first is the voice of a man: This matter is not negotiable, three thousand spirit stones, not one piece, or you will wait for your house to be destroyed!
Another man's voice came: Mr. He, can this matter be slowed down for a while? I can't take out so much at this moment. For the sake of our friendship for many years, I will give you a thousand first. ?

"Are you begging? Do you think this is doing business with you? One more piece and one less piece, Brother Xu, you Xu family have been in Jingbei for so many years, will you be unable to get three thousand spirit stones? Think about it! If you buy [-] spirit stones from your Xu family, you won’t suffer, I’ll give you another quarter of an hour to think about it.

The sound stopped abruptly.

He Maocai said: "After knowing that the Xu family colluded with the Mozong, I was suffering from no evidence. Over the years, I worked hard and worked hard, and finally managed to insert a chess piece into the Xu family, in order to find the Xu family colluded with the Mozong. It's a pity that the Xu family is really cautious and has never found any direct evidence, but I think this message should be enough to explain the problem!"

Tangning was a little surprised when she heard the conversation on the gramophone. It wasn't that the Xu family had colluded with the Demon Sect, but that He Maocai was able to intercept the message. Such a confidential matter was recorded.

It is conceivable how deep the chess piece He Maocai placed, the Xu family did not even notice it, and it was properly destroyed.

Tangning's face remained calm, "Before I came here, the sect sent two disciples from the Inspection Section to investigate He Wen's case. Didn't they find you? Why didn't they give this message to them?"

"There are indeed two immortal envoys from the upper sect who have come and questioned me, but at that time, there were so many people talking, how dare I say it easily, the Xu family has been in Jingbei for so many years, it is not easy to provoke, I can be with him There is a chess piece left in the mansion, how can I know that he will not have eyes and ears in my mansion?" He Maocai said.

In fact, because he didn't know the details of those two people, he was afraid that they would have an old relationship with the Xu residence, so he didn't dare to give them to them easily, but now he told Tangning because he had already inquired about their origins these days and knew that they were related to Xu residence. The government had nothing to do with it before it came out.

"I understand, this note is important evidence, give it to me! I will report this to the sect as soon as possible. As for how the sect handles it, it is not up to me to decide, and someone may come down to investigate. The sound can only show that the Xu family is currently under serious suspicion, and it cannot be concluded that Junior Brother He is the victim of the Xu family, and there is no clear statement in the note that the Xu family colluded with the Demon Sect."

He Maocai begged: "I have a request. The director of Wanwangtang should keep this matter a secret, and he must not talk to others before he gets to the bottom. The Xu family has been in Jingbei for many years and has many eyes and ears. If you know that it is my secret, I am afraid Will do unimaginably crazy things."

Tangning said, "Don't worry! I said I won't reveal any information. Even if my personal reputation is insignificant, isn't Gan Yizong's reputation enough to guarantee? You just need to take care of your own people. It's just that the sect is far away from this cloud mountain, and it may take more than a month to come and go."
