"According to the position, it is placed under the management of Ms. Zhao, the seven leaders of the Shanzhai. She is responsible for the collection of external information of the Shanzhai."
Tantai Wutian nodded, cupped his hands to the wine priest and said, "Senior, do you have any news about my nephew Rong Xin?"
The wine priest nodded, then shook his head again.
Tantai Wutian asked strangely: "What?"
Zhou Feiyan also looked at him strangely.
The wine priest looked at the two of them and said: "I got Miss Zhao's Feige letter these days, asking me to investigate the whereabouts of my nephew Ling, but there has been no result until today, but I only got some clues. But there is no specific whereabouts of the nephew."
Tantai Wutian hurriedly said: "I don't know what clues did senior find?"
Jiu Dao said humanely: "Actually, Miss Zhao's spies had discovered nephew Ling before, but just when they wanted to get in touch with nephew Ling, he was captured by the people of Changsha mansion in front of them. .¡±
Tantai Wutian nodded and said: "I also heard Liu Chongjiu Liu brother tell me about this."
"Liu Chongjiu?" the Taoist said, "Oh, that's right. Although he is not quite a man in the Jianghu, he has made friends with people in the Jianghu. a safe way."
"However, did he tell you how Nephew Ling was arrested?" the wine priest asked.
"That's not true," Tantai Wutian said, "However, I am still wondering, my nephew said that his martial arts skills are not weak, how could he be captured by a few officers and soldiers?"
The wine Taoist stroked his beard and said: "Nephew, it seems that nephew Ling was not arrested because of inferior skills"
"Did he fall into the trap?"
"It's okay to say it's a conspiracy," the wine priest stroked his beard and said, "Nephew, do you know that there is a weapon called a firecracker?"
"Fire gun?" Tantai Wutian remembered an ancient book from the previous dynasty that he had read in the library of Baihuaguan. The book talked about the Taoist alchemy technique, and it mentioned the alchemy made by the ancestors. Gunpowder was invented during the elixir, and by the way, it was mentioned that gunpowder was used as a weapon to make rockets and firecrackers.
He suddenly remembered the strange weapon pinned to his waist, so he stretched out his hand and pulled it out from his waist, handed it to the wine priest and said, "Senior, is this a firecracker?"
The wine Taoist took it over, squinted his eyes, played with it again, and then handed it back to Tantai Wutian: "Actually, I have never seen a real firecracker, but the shape of this thing should be That¡¯s it. However, your mechanism seems to be rusted, and it should be useless.¡±
Tantai Wutian nodded and said: "Senior, do you mean that my nephew was arrested by them because he was injured by the firecracker?"
The wine priest nodded and said: "It's probably the case. When the nephew Ling was arrested, although the spies sent by Miss Zhao were far away and did not see what happened clearly, someone still heard a loud noise. It was like the sound of a firecracker. At first I didn¡¯t think of the firecracker, but later I found out that the Changsha mansion actually transferred the imperial court¡¯s firecracker team. I realized that my nephew was probably injured and arrested after being hit by a firecracker. .¡±
"Fire gun soldiers? Could it be that the imperial court transferred the firearms camp to Changsha Mansion?" Zhou Feiyan asked in surprise.
"It should be, but I don't know how many people have been transferred" The wine priest turned to look at Zhou Feiyan.
"Is there any major event going to happen in Changsha Mansion?"
"Let's not talk about this first." The wine priest waved his hand.
Tantai Wutian heard that the little monk Rongxin might have been hit by a bullet, so he couldn't help being more worried about his safety.
Zhou Feiyan felt the change in his mood at this moment, patted him on the shoulder lightly and said: "Brother Tantai, the nephew should only be injured"
The wine priest also saw his worry, and said, "That's right, Miss Zhao's spies saw that Nephew Ling was taken away by them, so he should just be injured"
But Tantai Wutian thought to himself, if the character of the little monk Rongxin hadn't been seriously injured, how could he obediently follow them.
But it was useless to worry at this time, he calmed down, and asked the wine priest again: "Senior, what did you say you found some clues?"
The Jiu Taoist didn't speak, but looked up at the sky outside Kuixing Pavilion, and then listened carefully outside.
Seeing that he didn't answer, Tantai Wutian wanted to ask, but seeing his expression, he thought he had discovered something, so he kept silent and listened sideways.
Seeing the expressions of the two, Zhou Feiyan also thought they had discovered something, and listened attentively.
But after a while, there was no movement.
Zhou Feiyan was about to ask a question when he suddenly heard three sounds of "Bang Bang Bang" coming from the street of Your Excellency Kuixing, and a voice shouted, "It's midnight, be careful of candles¡ª"
After yelling, the wine priest immediately came back to his senses, and said to Tantai Wutian and Zhou Feiyan: "Come with me."
Only then did Tantai Wutian and Zhou Feiyan realize that he was listening to the time just now.
After the wine Taoist said that, he carried the big wine gourd on his back, jumped lightly from the third floor of the Kuixing Building, and fell to the ground, and then disappeared into the shadows on the side of the road.
Tantai Wutian and Zhou Feiyan hurriedly jumped down, and also hid in the shadows.
They didn't know where the wine priest would go, but they found him hiding in the shadows and motionless. Tantai Wutian and Zhou Feiyan were about to ask, but they saw the wine priest staring at the intersection in front of him, motionless, as if he was waiting What.
The two of them had no choice but to look at the intersection without moving.
After a while, I heard heavy footsteps coming from the direction of the intersection, and a pair of patrolling soldiers came from the intersection.
It was already the third watch, and the patrolling soldiers looked as if they had just been woken up to change shifts. Although they seemed to be walking in an orderly manner, it was obvious that they were not too energetic. When Tian and Zhou Feiyan were around, they didn't even bother to take a second look, so they just passed by.
And the reason why the wine Taoist chose to jump off the Kuixing Tower at this time is actually because he knew this situation. The patrol soldiers who had just changed shifts hadn't cheered up and would not check carefully. They would pay attention to it when they came back a second time. a little.
However, the patrolling soldiers are mostly routine at this time, unless someone is running openly on the street and let them see them, otherwise they will not search everywhere.
Hearing the patrolling soldiers walking away, the wine priest immediately greeted Tantai Wutian and Zhou Feiyan, ran forward a few steps quickly along the shadow of the street, and suddenly flew onto a roof, ran forward.
Tantai Wutian and Zhou Feiyan couldn't help admiring him for being as light as a swallow while carrying such a huge wine gourd on his back. But seeing that he had already flown to another roof, the two of them didn't dare to neglect, and hurriedly flew to the roof. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
