Chapter 115 – Gathering Wool at the Same Time

Chapter 115 – Gathering Wool at the Same Time

This message was sent out, and a few seconds later, the first to respond was number two: [Emperor Yuan Jing has been assassinated?

No, what’s wrong with your little old brother, three or two sentences do not leave the topic of Emperor Yuan Jing’s ascension to heaven, did he eat your family’s rice, or steal your family’s silver.

Xu Qi’an mentally labeled “Number Two” as a cynic.

The ancient version of cynicism.

[Nine: Yesterday, the inner and outer cities were sealed off, forbidding any people to enter or leave, so I expected that something had happened.]

Daoist Master Golden Lotus is still hiding in the capital, quietly recuperating from his injuries.

Xu Qi’an incomes the message and only writes half of it, the No. 1 who is used to peeking at the screen actually snatches a step ahead of the pretenders and throws out the truth that shocks the holders of the Earth Book fragments:

[I: Sangpo was bombed, the Yongzhen Shanhe Temple was destroyed, and what was sealed inside Sangpo is nowhere to be found.]

Such powerful news was met with silence.

The Earth Book chat group fell into a three-minute silence, with no one passing the book or expressing shock.

[2: What did you say? Sampo was bombed? The Yongzhen Mountain and River Temple is destroyed? Number One, are you sure you’re not teasing us?]

It makes sense for Two to react that way; it’s like Emperor Yuan Jing being taken out by a piker who single-handedly broke into the palace.

Just as incredible.

It’s simply eunuch deliberations – nonsense.

Number Four was equally incredulous; he knew what Sampo was and how heavily guarded it was better than Number Two.

But Number One will never be without a target.

[Four: Three, is that what you’re trying to say?]

[3: Yes, Sangpo was destroyed, and the whereabouts of the seal underneath the Yongzhen Shanhe Temple is unknown.]

With the endorsement of number three, as unbelievable as it may be, it’s pretty much a done deal.

Number One and Number Three were both in the capital and knew the most about what was going on in Da Bong’s capital.

[Nine: That’s incredible news. Any leads on that, Number One?]

Interesting, Taoist Master Jinlian didn’t even ask me, who was the night watchman, but directly questioned No. 1, does this mean that he thinks that in this kind of high-level secret, the probability of No. 1 knowing the relevant clues is higher than me?

But it’s too imprudent to say it out loud like that on purpose? Or was it because the impact of the Sandpiper blow-up was so great that it didn’t make him think carefully enough.

[No. 1: This case was handed over to the tri-party of the night watchman’s yamen, the Ministry of Justice, and the Prefectural Government Office, and I don’t know the exact news.]

The people in the Earth Book chat group could not hide their disappointment, the number one who had a very high position in the court did not know the exact details, so the number three must not know either.

[3: Coincidentally, our academy has learned quite a few secrets through the appropriate channels. Probably straightened out the case.]

Does number three know?

It’s amazing that Three knows!

He just said that he learned the news through the Academy’s channels, and it seems that the Cloud Deer Academy has planted many spies in the various government offices in the capital.

Seeing number three say that, number five, who originally wasn’t too interested in what was happening in Dafeng Capital, also jumped out to eat melon at this time.

[5: Number 3, your academy’s hand is reaching a bit deep, what Number 1 doesn’t even know, the academy does. That said, what is your position in the academy?]

Can an ordinary scholar, really know such an important hidden secret?

[III: I naturally have my ways.]

Xu Qi’an doesn’t explain that the importance of white space is that the smarter a person is, the easier it is to overthink.

They would suspect both the identity of Number Three as an ordinary scholar and wonder if Number Three had another identity. In the absence of strong testimony, instead, the more they would think, the more confused they would become.

Well, Number One is a problem, he/she is not that easy to fool. Doesn’t matter, I have no conflict with Number One for the time being, and, I’m getting a better idea of who he/she is, or at least have been able to draw a line in the sand.

[III: So, what are you going to do, in exchange for my information?]

When they saw this, the crowd’s hearts went wacky for a moment, feeling inexplicably that the debt they owed was getting bigger and bigger.

If Number Three were to do business, he would definitely be a successful merchant, right? Number Four sighed in his heart and replied, [I’ve been focusing on my cultivation lately and haven’t acquired any valuable information. Just owe it for now.]

[Two: Busy fighting bandits, well, once I figure out the forces behind Yunzhou that are manipulating the various fortresses, I’ll be able to pay off Three’s debt.]

Speaking of which, Two’s heart sank a little at his inexplicable debt.

[V: I do have an important message lately, but it’s a message that will reveal my identity.]

[IV: Heh, you’re from South of the Border, aren’t you.]

[I: It should be a noble from one of the Companions.]

[II: It also seems to be a bit belligerent.]

[V: . You, you all know?]

Isn’t it obvious that you know the history of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom like the back of your hand, that you claim to be an old mother, and that you yourself revealed earlier that your ahdad is of a rather high status!

Number five doesn t seem to be too smart in the head Yazi . It’s on the same level as my Caiwei girl Xu Qi’an commented in his heart.

He mentally redefined the characters in the earth book chat group:

Number One is well established within the court and is a screen peeper.

Number Two is a great cynic in the sky, but very wise, and it was he or she who tried himself or herself and Number One at the Ancestral Ceremony that day.

The Fourth is well acquainted with the head of the Human Zong Dao, who once joined the court and is now wandering the world.

Number five is a sister, a Southern Border Companion, a not-so-bright-brained sub.

Number six is a big bong version of Lu Zhishen, with a high level of cultivation.

Seven runs away, the Earth Book fragment is in the hands of Two, and Two and Seven have an extraordinary relationship.

Number eight is closed for death and has been diving for a long time.    Number nine is the initiator of the Heaven and Earth Society, Taoist Master Golden Lotus, an old silver coin.

No. 5 shut herself up for a while before she transmitted the book and vocalized: [Well, my mother is a person of the Southern Border Compass Clan, upright and bright, I have an important message to say. No. 3, I’ll exchange this with you for the Sang Po case.]

[Nine: Five, the poor man has not yet recovered from his wounds. If you want to talk, first get everyone to agree that you are owed information or the equivalent in silver.]

There was a moment’s silence from the Heaven and Earth Society crowd, and they agreed that they owed Five a piece of information.

[V: The Compassionate God is primed for revival.]

Compassion God? An existence that transcended grade, the creator of the Compassion Master system? Xu Qi’an was taken aback, even though he knew a little bit of the truth about the possible existence of “Immortal Buddhas” through the internal information of the White Whorish Heaven and Earth Association.

But he still found it absurd.

No one spoke in the Earth Book chat group for a long time, and it seemed that the shock this news brought to the crowd was no less than the bombing of Sampo.

[5: Yesterday, a wisp of the Compassion God’s breath overflowed from the Extreme Abyss, and all of the low-level parasites raised in the fortress died violently, while the high-level parasites went berserk and attacked the clansmen. My mother’s native parasites also nearly went out of control. Father said that after thousands of years, the Compulsion God has finally revived, but this is not a good thing.]

[II: Not a good thing?]

[V: Well, the Compassion God is the root of chaos, devouring and reproducing is seared into the instincts, and if it revives, all the creatures in the Southern Borderlands will become objects for it to mate with and devour. It will turn the entire Kyushu into a world of nothing but compulsion! Therefore, our Compassion Clan is gathering strong men and intends to sneak into the Extreme Abyss in a few days to check out the situation.]

Crap, there’s such a thing? The Compassionate God is such a creature?

Xu Qi’an was startled, and by no means was he brainstorming about tentacles or silver demons or anything like that, he was truly shocked by the evil of the Compassionate God, yes!

Xu Qi’an desperately wanted to know other information about the Compassion God, but there was no one to ask.

[Nine: This is truly shocking news.]

[3: Master Taoist, is the reason why the Compassionate God is sleeping, is it also sealed?]

Xu Qi’an side-stepped the Compass God’s message.

Nine: I don’t know, the Compassion God existed too long ago, before mankind learned to use words, it already existed. You can ask Number Five, but I’m afraid that the matter of the Compulsion God’s revival itself alone is worth more than your Sang Po case.”]

Worth more than my Sampo case? Xu Qi’an was unconvinced in his heart.

[V: Haha, number three, you can choose to trade with me if you want to know the rest of the Compass God’s information].

[Three: What do you want?]

[5: My brother is not married yet, I heard that your Zhenbei Crown Princess of Dafeng is the most beautiful woman in the world, I want her to be my sister-in-law.]

You’re thinking of eating shit. I have the ability to get on my own is not better, why give the beauty to your brother Xu Qi’an replied: [a princess is not enough, the eldest princess is also a great beauty, and our great Feng’s master of the country, I pack together for you to send over].

[Five: Yeah, yeah, yeah!

[I: If it’s just this nonsense, then I’m going to take a break, and I’d like to ask both of you to keep your mouths shut.]

Number One jumped in to interrupt the conversation.

The Fifth stopped making a fuss because she also wanted to know what happened in the Sang Po case, and the transmission said, [I only know that the Compassion God is the source of the Compassionist system, and is the source of all the Compassions in the world].

Seeing that Number Five had finished speaking, Xu Qi’an worded his words and began to share what he had on the Sampo case:

[The thing sealed underneath Sangpo may be related to the Demon Race, and the current Da Feng officials have tentatively determined that the force that blew up Sangpo is most likely the Demon Race. But I don’t know if it’s from the north, or the remnants of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom.]

Xu Qi’an wasn’t afraid that a leak of first-hand information would lead to other people’s speculations about his identity.

This was because there were many officials who were meeting in the council chamber at that time, and the Ministry of Justice, the government offices, and the night watchman were all among them. The channel through which Cloud Deer Academy obtained information was not necessarily the night watchman’s office.

Demons?

How is it related to the Demon race again, and why did the Demon race blow up the seal underneath Sangpo.

The people of the Heaven and Earth Society were bewildered.

However, they realized one thing, and that was that the inside story involved behind the Sampo case was definitely not simple.

The only way to unravel this is probably to figure out what’s sealed underneath the Sampo.

[1: Impossible, the Sangpo is heavily guarded, even a high-grade powerhouse can’t sneak in, how did the Demons blow up the Sangpo? Where did the gunpowder come from?

[Three: this matter, the court has checked clearly, Taikang County within the territory of the rhubarb mountain has been found saltpeter mine, but has been collected empty, the collector is precisely the demon race. One, your news channel is not working. In addition, the saucer of the fornication of the demon race has also been found out, is the hundred households of the Golden Guard Zhou Chixiong, but he absconded with his family].

[I: Then the trail is broken.]

[3: Heh, that’s not necessarily true, soon, the court will surely issue a wanted notice, Zhou Chixiong will either leave Dafeng or hide in a safe place, where do you think he’ll hide?

Number two was the first to snatch the answer: [Then, needless to say, it must be Yunzhou].

There is no one in the Earth Book Heaven and Earth Society who knows the situation in Yunzhou better than (he) she does.

By this point, Xu Qi’an’s purpose had been achieved, and he was trying to use this to start a conversation, so that Number Two could help him keep an eye on Yunzhou and see if he could capture Zhou Baido.

But according to his persona, he shouldn’t be so attached to a fugitive, because of patriotism? This reason is too perfunctory.

[One: Two, you’re quite powerful in Yunzhou, can you keep an eye on Zhou Chixiong for me?]

Nice work Xu Qi’an perked up a bit.

In Number One’s mind, Number Two seems to be more reliable than the government?

[II: I refuse to help you.]

[I: I will provide payment.]

[Two: No, I refuse to help you!]

Number One stopped talking, and a brief silence fell over the Earthbook group.

Number one and number two don’t seem to get along. The others didn’t try to talk them out of it. Is it because they had a conflict or a problem before I joined?

Uh. This won’t work. If No. 2 doesn’t help, Yunzhou is so big, how can we uncover Zhou Chixiong.

I should have stepped in so that I could do a favor for Number One and collect the money owed by Number Two.

Blood money!

Xu Qi’an typed in the message: [Number Two, keep an eye on Zhou Chixiong for me, consider it as repaying the debt from last time. As for number one, I’m sorry, you owe me another favor. What do you two think?
