Treading Blood to Sky’s End Chapter 581: Identity confirmation
, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Journey to the End of the World!
The difference between the Kingdom of Eternal Night and the underworld is that there is matter, but time is still slower than the outside world. Therefore, it takes three hundred years in the outside world, but only thirty years here, so that the trapped monks do not feel the loss of time. At the same time, they can control the evil wind. The speed is the same, and the news from Zhang Tianliu will be delivered to the Yuanji Palace in the capital within a few days.
Yuan Shuang was stunned for a long time after receiving the news.
"My servant?"
"Yes, we can't tell whether it's true or false, so we came here to ask the Yuan Priest Master to find out about this matter."
"Got it, just a moment."
Yuan Shuang gave a few instructions to a serving maid. A quarter of an hour after the maid retreated, the old man in gray robe followed the maid and appeared outside the hall. The old man took a few steps to the center of the hall, bowed and saluted: "Old slave pays homage to the Lord Priest. I wonder what the priest has to do with the old slave?"
Yuan Shuang asked straight to the point: "Have you sent someone to investigate Lingxu City?"
The old man nodded: "It is true."
This kind of gathering information for one's master is the most normal thing. There is almost no need to let the master know. As long as the master asks, if you can answer it, you are a qualified steward.
Of course, the old man still knows very clearly what should be investigated and what should not be investigated. Take the matter of Lingxu City. Although no one cares about it, all the priests' stewards will arrange for people to go and have a look to get a general understanding of the situation. Even if Not participating in this matter is also an exercise for those in the intelligence network.
"In this case, you can talk to him." Yuan Shuang said to the young man sent by Liangchi.
The young man hurriedly explained Zhang Tianliu's matter to the old man, which made the old man confused.
Since he is a secret emissary, he naturally has to disguise himself and hang out in various situations. If he sees what people say, he is forced to be killed, and it is common for him to betray his master. As long as it is not too confidential, mutual verification is enough. But the old man I don’t understand, how could such a good person block the way of the high priest?
The old man seized on this point and asked again and again.
The young man was not very clear and he hesitated: "It seems that when we were cleaning the streets, the ghost general felt uncomfortable and wanted to feed him to the dogs, so..."
"Clean up the streets! Could it be that you are a sanitation worker?" The old man was also confused. No matter whether the emissary was a high-ranking or a low-ranking official, he would be able to get around without any problem.
"I'm afraid we can only call Qin's staff to find out."
Yuan Shuang finally asked impatiently: "I'm just a servant, how can it be so troublesome?"
"The secret envoy is arranged by the Qin staff, and he knows the characteristics of all the secret envoys."
"But I have already sent him to find someone. Just go with him to the mountain snow. You will know if it is right or not."
"Old slave, I obey." The old man immediately asked the young man to lead the way.
After the two of them came to Shanxue City in a hurry, the first person they met was Liangchi.
Liang Chi naturally greeted the old man politely.
How could I know that the old man said unceremoniously: "Where are the people?"
"Mr. Bei Weng, the truth of the matter is that there is absolutely nothing wrong with him. The problem is that he is not a servant of your house..."
"What do you mean by this?" Mr. Weng frowned and stared at Liangchi.
Although he is a servant of the small priest, his status is not as good as that of the aide of the high priest Liangchi. However, Mr. Weng has a high level of cultivation, a whole level higher than Liangchi, and is a strong man of the Seventh Queen.
"Alas, in fact, his identity is indeed a secret envoy, but he is not from your house, but from a higher place!"
Mr. Weng understood, and immediately did not ask any more questions. His expression returned to normal and said: "Well, in that case, just take me to see you."
"This way please."
Liang Chi thought it would be a good idea to ask Mr. Bei Weng to take a look, which would give him an extra layer of protection.
After the two of them arrived at the residence arranged by Liang Chi for Zhang Tianliu, as soon as they entered the courtyard, they made Zhang Tianliu shirtless and practiced a set of simple but standard boxing techniques. They didn’t know what kind of Kung Fu he was practicing. Like a purple gold sculpture, under the light of the moon, its surface glows with a gleaming metallic luster, which is very magical.
Lao Weng was stunned. Liangchi couldn't tell, but he was different. Although his body was not golden in color, it was indeed a golden fluid!
"This person has a close relationship with Lord Lingxu!" Mr. Weng immediately felt certain in his heart.
"Mr. Zhang." Liangchi greeted.
Hearing this, Zhang Tianliu collected his efforts, picked up the clothes on the stone table in the courtyard, put them on, walked to Liangchi and Mr. Weng and said with a smile: "I expected someone to come from the Yuanji Master's mansion, but I didn't expect that it was Senior Weng. I’m Zhang Tianliu, I’ve met my senior.”
"Well, Mr. Zhang holds any position in the inner court."
Lao Weng's direct inquiry shocked Liangchi, but he did not dare to say anything.
Zhang Tianliu said indifferently: "I am just a small secret envoy, and I was ordered to come here to investigate."
"I don't think so." Mr. Weng sneered.
"Ah this..." Liangchi was startled again, wondering if he couldn't say this, what if it was! There is no turning back!
Unexpectedly, Zhang Tianliu did not explain in words, but Mr. Weng smiled and said: "I don't know what your relationship is with Lord Lingxu, but coming here this time is not as simple as following an order. There must be a personal relationship involved!"
Zhang Tianliu looked calmly and said: "I am worried too much. How can the secret envoy of the inner court be disturbed by personal affairs?"
"It is natural to ignore different friendships, but some friendships are unavoidable, and Mr. Zhang does not need to worry too much. I am not responsible, and I have no right to interfere with your inner court affairs, but you are taking my name as the Yuan Priest Master, it is unavoidable..."
Zhang Tianliu interrupted: "I have no choice. Among the priests, the one who is the most indifferent to this matter is Yuanshuang Priestess. Her reasonableness is what I have long been famous for."
"I think you found it in the inner court!" Mr. Weng sneered inwardly.
But Zhang Tianliu was right. Their Yuanshuang priest didn't even bother to ask about matters in the palace, and he didn't care about his reputation. He was an excellent candidate to support him, and it was much easier to explain afterwards.
"I won't disturb Mr. Zhang's martial arts practice. I'll take my leave."
Mr. Weng comes and goes in a hurry, but he is also straight-tempered.
Liang Chi immediately went to see him off. When the two were far away, Liang Chi sent a message: "Mr. Bei Weng, I don't know much about the affairs of the inner court. May I ask if there is any doubt about Mr. Zhang's identity?"
"There is no doubt about it. Look at Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com. Jinji Fluid is a technique taught only by City Lord Lingxu. It is impossible for outsiders to learn it. Look at his skill, which is about 30% of the level of Lord Lingxu. He does not have to suffer for one or two hundred years. Xiu Ke couldn't make it this far. I didn't expect that this old boy would create such a young man at his age and specially arrange it to be in the inner court. It's a pity that he has bad luck!"
"Master Zhang has mastered Jinji Fluid! But it's not like the rumors!" Liang Chi said in surprise.
Lao Weng explained: "This is related to the inheritance he received from Zijin Yunyin, which is unorthodox Jin Yuan Gong."
"I see, it seems that his identity is true. In fact, I was sure when I saw the emissary card, but I was never sure. Now, how should we handle this matter?"
"Since he said he is a servant of the Yuan Festival Lord, let him investigate Lingxu City in this capacity, but you should pay more attention and don't believe it all."
Liang Chi is depressed and asked me to pay attention. Why don’t you send someone to pay attention?
I am asked to do all the dirty and tiring work, and if something goes wrong, I am asked to take the blame. Where is the justice?
Even if he was reluctant in every possible way, Liangchi did not dare to say no!
