My apprentice is too diligent.

Chapter 50【050】Cheating

Viewed from the front, the content of the painting is nothing more than an ordinary landscape.

But looking back, the distribution of mountains and rivers in the painting is clearly geographical.

The geography of a certain area in Baishui County.

Even so, most people can't think of anything else. They just think that the painter left the geographical description of the place he visited as a souvenir or collection.

However, Chen Wuji compared the map on this painting with a residual map he had obtained before and made a match.

I was pleasantly surprised to find that the mountains and rivers in the painting in front of me could just fill in a corner.

In other words, the painting Nie Shuangshuang picked up was also a residual painting!
"..."

Chen Wuji remained silent.

He suppressed the excitement in his heart and turned to look at Nie Shuangshuang.

The little girl's timing has arrived, it's amazing.

I was just shopping for groceries, and when I was walking down the street, a broken picture fell in front of my eyes.

"What's wrong, Master?" Nie Shuangshuang was confused.

"It's nothing."

Chen Wuji said calmly, "When you picked up this painting, who else saw it?"

"It's Grandpa Ge." Nie Shuangshuang didn't know why, "I picked it up at the corner, and there was no one else around at the time."

"Where are the windows above the head, on the second floor, on the third floor, on the upper floors?" Chen Wuji asked.

"nor."

Nie Shuangshuang shook his head, "I looked at it when I picked it up. There was no one in the nearby windows upstairs."

"That's good."

Chen Wuji nodded, "Shuangshuang, remember, don't mention this painting to anyone later. Uncle Ge will go and talk to the Master Council. In short, you just went out to buy groceries today and didn't pick up anything!"

"Okay, my disciple only followed Grandpa Ge to buy groceries and did nothing else." Nie Shuangshuang raised her hands to assure, then she blinked and asked in a low voice, "Master, is there anything wrong with this painting?"

"The problem is not small, but don't worry, Master is here." Chen Wuji's tone slowed down, "Master will handle it well."

"Yes, yes." Nie Shuangshuang nodded, without asking any more questions, waving his hand and saying, "Master, you are busy, my disciple went to play with my senior sister."

"Go."

Chen Wuji smiled and watched Nie Shuangshuang skip away.

When the person disappeared, the smile on his face quickly disappeared.

First put away the scroll and hide it.

Then, he left the study, closed the door, and went straight to the bedroom.

Wear a long coat underneath and a long robe on the outside.

Chen Wuji quickly walked out of the Chen family courtyard and went straight to the Sifang Building.

On the way, pass through an alley.

When he came out of the alley, his appearance had changed, his body had changed, and he took off his outer robe.

As an ordinary middle-aged man, carrying a package, he walked into the Sifang Building to inquire about the news.

The incomplete map Nie Shuangshuang picked up would not appear out of thin air.

Apparently someone accidentally dropped it.

And how can ordinary people possess such a incomplete map that hides secrets?

The entire Blood Sword Sect was wiped out because of it!

……

We disguised ourselves in the Sifang Building and walked up and down several times.

Chen Wuji found out the origin of the incomplete map.

Qixinshi!
The son of the county magistrate, Qi Xinshi.

Half an hour ago, Qi Xinshi and a young master from the He family from Linjiang County next door were playing cards in Sifanglou.

I lost all my money, so I used the few scrolls I brought with me to pay off my debts.

As a result, he lost completely.Several scrolls were casually thrown by the young master of the He family to the attendants for safekeeping.

The attendant had a lot of things in his hands, so he held them in his arms and left. When passing by the window, he bumped into someone, and the top few scrolls fell to the ground. Two of the scrolls were thrown up and flew out of the window.

One fell downstairs and the other fell into the street.

The scroll that fell downstairs was picked up.

It fell on the street, the attendant was lazy!

Or, it’s too late!
Otherwise, Nie Shuangshuang would not be able to pick it up at all.

The time will come, the time will come.

Timing is of the essence!

In short, this newly obtained incomplete map comes from Qi Xinshi.

And Qi Xinshi, the [-]% stolen Qi Zhongshan, is the county magistrate of Baishui County!

"I really didn't expect that Qi Zhongshan actually has a incomplete map in his hand."

"Or, more than one serving?"

Chen Wuji is becoming more and more curious now.

What secrets are hidden in these incomplete maps?
County Zun Qi Chongshan is plotting.

The young man from Fucheng is plotting something.

The Wang family, which has been rooted in Baishui for hundreds of years, is plotting.

Even the mysterious forces behind Xiong Zengtong, Yang Qin, and Zhao Feihu are also plotting!

Otherwise, why were they ordered to follow Qi Chongshan?

What does a small county official who has been working for more than [-] years have in his body, and what is the mysterious force plotting by a mysterious force that can only be officially joined by a true Qi state?
Qi Chongshan was not in the True Qi realm, Chen Wuji was sure after seeing it.

This county official has some background, but it shouldn't be high.

Therefore, staying in Baishui County for so many years has a huge conspiracy!
"It's a pity that I was tricked by my own son."

Thinking of the incomplete map Nie Shuangshuang picked up, Chen Wuji wanted to laugh.

Chen Wuji didn't care how Qi Xinshi stole the scroll.

At this moment, Chen Wuji just wanted to see Qi Chongshan's expression when he discovered that the scroll was lost?
Sure enough, cheating is indispensable in any world.

……

Leave Sifanglou.

Chen Wuji did not return to the Chen family compound, but went straight to the Li family.

Still wandering into alleys, changing appearance and body shape.

When he got closer to the street where Li's house was located, he became "Qin Shubao" again.

Knock on the door, state your identity, and walk through the door of Li's house.

Follow the housekeeper and shuttle between the courtyards.

Until we came to the living room.

Before I even stepped in, I heard an oppressive man's voice.

"Brother Li, my nephew is very talented. After joining the Jinyang Sect, he finally broke through to the True Qi realm last month."

"You also know that martial arts training consumes the most money. Entering the True Qi realm consumes even more money."

"It's hard for our He family to produce a Qilin son. Why don't we support him with all our strength and grit our teeth to provide for him?"

"...It requires strong support." Li Changyu's voice sounded, "Brother He, if you have anything to say, you might as well say it directly. As long as the Li family can do it, I will never refuse."

"Ashamed."

"Brother He" said with some guilt, "I made Brother Li laugh. Here's the thing. I came here this time to discuss with Brother Li that the He family does not intend to retain any share of the saltpeter mine in Lianhua Mountain. Sell ​​them all.”

"If Brother Li wants it, he only needs to pay 5 taels of silver, and the entire mine will belong to the Li family!"

"5 taels? You are stealing money!"
