, Guan Fangyi had to remind you solemnly, "You have to think clearly, Dongguo Haoran is your legitimate master, and Dongguo Haoran is a disciple of the Shangqing Sect! No matter whether Dongguo Haoran taught you anything or not, Dongguo Haoran has not sorry for you after all. That said This is a bit false, but in life, there are certain honors that cannot be shaken off. No matter how much trouble you make about Tang Yi, it is a private matter between you and Tang Yi. If you destroy the Shangqing Sect, then It is to deceive the master and destroy the ancestors, which is a taboo in the entire cultivation world!"
"They can kill me, but I can't eradicate them. What's the point?" Niu Youdao squinted.
"Yes, it is unfair to you, but there is no such thing as fairness in this world. There are too many injustices that people have to face and endure when they live in this world. If you are not restrained by the morality of the world, you only care about your own grudges and grudges. , it is the evil way in the eyes of the world, and no one will talk to you about justice!"
"Don't worry, I have my reasons for doing this. Since I dare to do it, this matter will have nothing to do with me!"
In short, no matter how Guan Fangyi tried to persuade her, it was of no use.
After the meal, the people in Fufangyuan witnessed Yuan Gang's intention to implement Niu Youdao, asked for the guarded golden wings from Lao Shisan, and sent a message.
Not long after, a figure flashed past in the west corner outside the inn. As he passed by, he clapped his hands and printed a strange-looking insect, a white insect painting, on a conspicuous place in the corner.
However, at some point, the insect was wiped away by a passerby.
After nightfall, people were coming and going on the street. Someone was lighting up three small lanterns in a string and passing by outside the inn. They looked like people from the world in Vientiane City, but the one in the middle of the three lanterns in a string was just destroyed.
The man seemed to be walking carelessly and accidentally bumped into a person entering the inn. The person who was bumped turned around and looked at him coldly. It was Uncle Chen.
The person holding the lantern apologized profusely.
Uncle Chen had no expression on his face and returned to the inn without arguing with him.
The lampbearer continues on the streets.
In the gap of a window opposite the inn, a pair of eyes took in the scene of the unintentional collision in the dark, and then paid attention to the inn to see if anyone was following the person who carried the lamp.
But on the backyard wall of the inn, a figure flashed and climbed over the wall in the blink of an eye. It was Yuan Gang who had changed his appearance.
Yuan Gang avoided the direction of the front entrance of the inn and left the inn from the back door. He quickened his pace and quickly passed through the alleys and detoured to another street, which was also the main street in the direction of the front entrance of the inn. He arrived in front of the lamp bearer in advance. Fang slowed down, a black cloak covering his body.
After a while, the lamp bearer passed by Yuan Gang.
The person who carried the lamp walked all the way east, and finally turned into an alley and entered a small courtyard.
After waiting for a while, a golden-winged black shadow rose into the sky from the small courtyard and swept into the depths of the night.
In another small courtyard nearby, children were playing and skipping rope under the lantern lighting under the eaves. A dark shadow lying on the roof quietly turned over and fell. It hung its hand on the air window on the wall, slowing down the speed of its fall, and landed softly. , wrapped himself in a black cloak, and left quickly...
In the inn, Yuan Gang came back at some point. As he passed by the corridor, he looked up at a bronze mirror on the roof beam at the corner that was not meant to be discovered. When he passed the door of Yuanfang's room, he knocked on the door, and then Go straight to Niu Youdao's room.
In Yuanfang's house, Yuanfang sat by the window in the dark, squatting over two mirrors, staring at the light and shadow refracted in the two mirrors with eyes wide open, barely daring to blink.
There was also a mirror hidden at the end of the eaves with a row of lanterns hanging outside, corresponding to the mirror he was squatting at the window. Although he couldn't see anything clearly, he would definitely be able to detect if someone came in or out of the row of windows outside.
There is also a mirror that corresponds to the corridor in the inn. Although you can't see anything clearly, you can tell whether anyone is leaving the room or not.
These mirrors were set up by Yuan Gang, and Yuan Fang didn't know what Yuan Gang was going to do. Yuan Gang only had one request, which was to remember which room someone came in and out of.
Upon learning that Yuan Gang was back, Yuan Fang, who was sitting still, breathed a sigh of relief. He raised his hands and rubbed his eyes, then looked down at the seemingly irregular beans on the table.
This bean was also set up by Yuan Gang, so that when Yuan Fang discovered the situation, he could easily move the bean to record the entry and exit of people.
After releasing the moon butterfly lighting, he took out the paper and pen, Yuan Fang cleared the beans on the table, and wrote down on the paper the entry and exit status of everyone who settled on this floor, and at the same time, he thought about the approximate entry and exit time.
After finishing writing, he stuffed the paper into his sleeve, collected the moon butterfly, left the room, and walked to Niu Youdao's room under the corridor light.
Knocking on the door and entering, under the soft light of the moon butterfly, Niu Youdao was lying sideways on the couch, supporting his head with one arm and closing his eyes, seemingly in a false sleep.
Yuan Gang stood aside.
Yuan Fang closed the door and came over, took out the paper from his sleeve, handed it to Yuan Gang, and whispered quietly: "Master Yuan, what are you doing? Are you worried about those people in Fufangyuan?"
"You talk a lot of nonsense!" Yuan Gang said coldly, his eyes falling on the paper.
Yuan Fang chuckled, speechless after being scolded.
After reading the contents on the paper carefully, Yuan Gang asked again: "That's it, are there no discrepancies?"
Yuan Fang hurriedly assured, "No, except for you who left the room and didn't remember it, everyone else has remembered it, so there will be no mistake. It's late at night, and we people won't run around if we have nothing to do. We remember clearly who we go in and out of." Chu."
Yuan Gang: "Have you found any abnormalities?"
Yuan Fang: "No, uh... the matchmaker stayed in Master Dao's room for a bit long, does it count?" He looked carefully at Niu Youdao's reaction.
As a result, Niu Youdao didn't react at all.
Yuan Fang just said it casually with a hint of ridicule, but Yuan Gang nodded and said: "Forget it! Any abnormal behavior will count."
Yuanfang was speechless and muttered a few words in his heart.
Afterwards, Yuan Gang waved his hand and sent him away.
After leaving the door, Yuan Fang scratched the back of his head and shook his head, wondering what Yuan Gang was up to.
Inside the room, Yuan Gang studied the content on the paper in his hand again, then looked at the man who was sleeping with his eyes closed, "Master Dao, you can't be wrong, there is indeed something wrong with that Uncle Chen."
Niu Youdao slowly opened his eyes. The moment he opened them, there seemed to be a deep and indifferent cold light flashing through the slits of his eyes.
He put his hand behind his back and took out a piece of paper hidden behind him. There was a strange insect drawn on the paper. It was the kind of insect painting that had appeared on the west corner outside the inn during the day. He held it up and admired it for a while, then lay on his side. Na said slowly: "There is actually a joint code, and both parties used the joint code, which means that the two parties did not know each other before. This is a bit interesting. Just send the joint code anywhere, and someone will cooperate, and they act meticulously, behind the scenes There should be a large-scale organization... Who is this old guy? He has been hiding next to the matchmaker for so long. "
He really didn't expect that the old sweeper of Fufangyuan, Guan Fangyi's confidant, that man who was serious in speech and never talked about anything, who was never troublesome, such a quiet person, could actually be a spy. In fact, It was beyond his expectation.
Yuan Gang: "The Shangqing Sect came here and is related to Zhao Xiongge. Could he be Zhao Xiongge's person?"
Niu Youdao narrowed his eyes and said: "I'm also wondering about this. According to rumors, Zhao Xiongge is neutral between good and evil and has no power of his own. But looking at the situation of this joint, it doesn't look like a small fight. Let's discuss this matter I have no clue, and it’s useless to rely on guessing. Let the matchmaker come over and I’ll ask you in person.”
Yuan Gang had to remind: "Master Dao, it is entirely possible that the matchmaker is in the same group with him, and it is also entirely possible that the matchmaker ordered him."
Niu Youdao supported his head with one arm and shook his head: "If this is true, this organization has set up Fufangyuan in Qijing for so long, it must have its uses, and I will not let me uproot it easily. In the process, I didn’t feel any resistance. Secondly, it’s unlikely that you can stay close to me for so long without revealing any flaws. I’ve been in the world for so many years and I’m not blind.”
This is true! Yuan Gang thought about his words and nodded slightly in agreement.
The look in Niu Youdao's eyes was treacherous, and he continued slowly: "Besides, what if there is a problem? I don't want to antagonize the forces behind them. If there is anything, I might as well talk about it clearly. If it is really for me, I will The fact that I have tolerated them for so long at least shows that I am valuable to them, and the other party should be willing to talk. Our current strength is too weak, and the matchmaker still has some foundation. It is the best choice to keep them to help. Now that they have come to the door, We can't hide. If everyone around us really has problems, we won't be able to bear it if we continue to be on guard like this. I know what's going on, so go call her over."
Yuan Gang said nothing, turned around and left.
After a while, the door opened again, Guan Fangyi twisted her waist and came in, and Yuan Gang then closed the door.
Seeing him coming, Niu Youdao looked like he was lying on his side and fell asleep. Guan Fangyi suddenly said angrily: "Did you call me to see you and pretend to be dead?"
A smile appeared on Niu Youdao's lips without opening his eyes, "Monkey, give her the entry and exit information."
Yuan Gang immediately shook out the paper and showed it to her.
what? Guan Fangyi was suspicious. She took the paper and looked at it. Her expression quickly changed. She looked at Niu Youdao and said in a deep voice, "What do you mean? Are you spying on us?"
Such surveillance makes it clear that they don't trust them.
While she was angry, she was also a little surprised. There were only two or three people here, and they actually knew the entry and exit of the four of them in such detail. The key was that they didn't notice at all.
Niu Youdao didn't reply. He opened his eyes and smiled, then pulled out the piece of paper from behind and held it out, "Look at this, do you recognize it?"
Guan Fangyi took it in her hand, shook it off and saw that there was only a strange insect drawn on it. She turned it over and over to see, yes, there was nothing else on the paper, it was just a bug. The paper was shaking loudly, "Niu Youdao, what do you mean? Don't play riddles with me, just say what you have to say, and if you have any questions, hurry up!"
Niu Youdao looked at Yuan Gang, picked Guan Fangyi, and motioned to tell her the situation.
