"This is not a letter he wrote!" Xie Jingshan said firmly.
Jiang Yuebai was still reading the letter, which mentioned the friendship between Shen Huaixi and Xie Jingshan in Tianyan Sect. It also mentioned that he had some unspeakable secrets about the attack on Shanhai Tower, so he invited Xie Jingshan to Tieyu Country to explain in person.
After reading it, Jiang Yuebai had only one feeling: it’s very grand!
And they are not necessarily sincere, they are just clichés.
Given Shen Huaixi's personality, his relationship with Xie Jingshan, and his later experiences, he probably would not write a letter like this.
"Our whereabouts have been exposed." Jiang Yuebai handed the letter to Xie Jingshan, "No matter who sent the letter, the attack on Shanhai Tower is probably related to Tieyu Country."
Xie Jingshan pondered for a moment and said to the head shopkeeper, "Go and find out if other shops in Shanhailou have received the same letter. This place may have been targeted. You all should continue as usual and be careful. Also, ask Hongyanlou to give me the latest intelligence from various countries."
The chief shopkeeper looked cautious and left temporarily. After he left, he arranged for two people to disguise themselves as Jiang Yuebai and Xie Jingshan. After buying some things in Shanhai Tower, they left and wandered around the city to attract attention.
The weather suddenly changed at noon, and it started to rain. Jiang Yuebai and Xie Jingshan temporarily lived in the backyard of Shanhai Tower, waiting for news and observing the situation.
"What are you going to do next?"
Jiang Yuebai sat at the small table in the corridor, took out the spider silk thread and began to sort it out.
Xie Jingshan stood by and read the letter carefully several times.
"Shen Huaixi might be in danger."
Jiang Yue didn't even raise her eyes. She could guess the message behind the letter. "You know yourself well. You are indeed soft-hearted. What? You want to help him?"
Xie Jingshan sat down and slapped the letter on the table.
"First, he can imitate his handwriting so well, and he knows the relationship between him and me, so he must be someone close to him. Second, if he really did the Shanhai Tower incident, he would be hiding from me, so why would he want to see me? The unspeakable secrets mentioned in the letter clearly indicate that he admitted that the Iron Feather Nation attacked the Shanhai Tower."
"This is equivalent to putting the blame on Shen Huaixi. Third, if you invite me to Tieyu Country, whether I agree or not, if anything goes wrong with me afterwards, the blame will still be on Shen Huaixi, and it will still be Tieyu Country that will bear the wrath of my grandfather."
"So the person behind this letter has great ill intentions towards Shen Huaixi. He may not know anything. Someone wants to use me to get rid of him, or even kill two birds with one stone, catching me and killing him at the same time."
Jiang Yuebai pulled the spider silk with both hands to test its toughness, and said softly, "You can go home now, don't worry about anything, this situation will be solved naturally."
Xie Jingshan frowned, "I can't do it, and this matter concerns Shanhai Tower. If there is no result, all the shops in Yiren Country must be withdrawn, which will also cause great losses to Shanhai Tower. As for Hongyan Tower, the intelligence network of Yiren Country was established by my mother with great difficulty back then, and it cannot be broken like this."
Jiang Yuebai put down the spider silk and looked at Xie Jingshan, "So what do you want to do?"
Xie Jingshan poured a cup of tea for Jiang Yuebai attentively, "I am still inexperienced and I am afraid that my ideas are not thorough enough, so I would like to ask Senior Sister to help me with some advice."
Jiang Yue rolled her eyes, "If you use me, I'll be your senior sister, but if you don't, just call me by my full name?"
Bang!
A storage bag was slapped on the table, "Ten thousand high-grade spirit stones!"
"I think you can make three preparations." Jiang Yuebai sat upright with a serious look on his face.
"On the one hand, find a reliable and powerful person to pretend to be you, and follow the letter to accept the agreement. While keeping the other party stable, find out the person who intends to murder Shen Huaixi. It would be best if we can capture him directly."
Xie Jingshan listened carefully and nodded.
Jiang Yuebai took the storage bag and stuffed it into his sleeve without leaving a trace, and continued to work seriously.
"On the other hand, I have read the intelligence excerpts you gave me. Every time Shanhai Tower was attacked, it was on the way to transport goods. The enemy's ambush location was extremely accurate. Even with a Jindan stage master in charge, they still couldn't catch the person. I believe you can already feel that there may be a traitor in Shanhai Tower."
"Also, every attack involves Feather Tribe aliens. Let's not worry about whether Shen Huaixi knows about the actions of these Feather Tribe aliens. To prevent the tragedy from happening again and to catch the traitor in Shanhai Tower, you can have Shanhai Tower temporarily close all shops, order an evacuation of the alien country, and find a reliable person to spread false news about the evacuation route, saying that you are going to transport the supplies back to the Central Plains."
"Then concentrate your forces and capture these attackers on the evacuation route. Regardless of whether they are related to Shen Huaixi or not, you have these Feather Tribe aliens in your hands, and you have the capital and evidence for negotiation. Finally, the two of us will still follow the original plan and sneak into the Iron Feather Country, hiding in the dark and waiting for an opportunity to act."
"We don't know what Shen Huaixi's plan is at the moment, so the matter of Shanhai Tower cannot be completely resolved in a short period of time. If Shen Huaixi really has no ill will towards you, and he can control and stabilize the entire Yiren Country, then you can cooperate with him to ensure the safety of Shanhai Tower."
After listening to Jiang Yuebai's words, Xie Jingshan sat there for a long time, unable to come back to his senses. He had already thought about some of the problems, but not as comprehensively and long-term as Jiang Yuebai.
In the past, Shanhai Tower was controlled by the reputation of his grandfather Xie Tianbao, who was half a step away from becoming a god. No one dared to take action rashly for fear of incurring revenge from his grandfather.
Now that the Tieyu Kingdom has broken this unspoken rule and has not been punished yet, other forces are bound to become restless.
Especially after his grandfather became a god and ascended to heaven, it would take his parents several years to conceive. During this period of time, Shanhai Tower had to find other ways to gain a foothold in the foreign country.
Either eliminate the culprit to establish authority, or seek reliable forces to cooperate with. After all, the emperor is far away and it is impossible for Shanhailou to leave a group of people here to guard it for a long time. For businessmen, this is a losing business.
Jiang Yuebai opened Xie Jingshan's mind and he immediately felt that the ten thousand high-quality spirit stones were worth spending.
Jiang Yuebai was secretly delighted at the side. It was too easy to earn 10,000 high-quality spirit stones with just a few words. She should be able to do this a hundred times!
Xie Jingshan was quietly calculating, while Jiang Yuebai was quietly weaving a spider silk wig.
The wind rustled the leaves, and the rain made the apricot blossoms fall.
The short and fat manager of Shanhai Tower braved the rain and came in person to deliver the information collected by Hongyan Tower.
After reading it, Xie Jingshan was shocked and handed the top page to Jiang Yuebai.
"The Wind Shoe Nation was almost massacred? Even the leader died!"
Jiang Yuebai's pupils trembled slightly. They had just come out of Fengti Country. "Didn't you find out who did it?"
The chief innkeeper was still waiting nearby and said, "Nothing has been found. Of the three people who went to investigate, only one returned, and he was seriously injured. Judging from the marks on his body, it looks like the Guishui mines from the Lei Ze."
Jiang Yuebai and Xie Jingshan looked at each other, and Jiang Yuebai said, "Lei Ze? Is it such a coincidence?"
The wind was howling, blowing all over the building.
Xie Jingshan looked solemn, feeling that the Yiren Kingdom was becoming more and more turbulent. The following pages of information were all about the migration of various countries to the Tieyu Kingdom. Most of the young and middle-aged people in the Fengti Kingdom had already migrated, and only the old leaders and the elderly who remained in the original village were massacred.
"Why are people from Feiyan Pavilion also appearing in Yiren Country? Are they chasing that fox girl?"
Xie Jingshan handed the last two pieces of paper in his hand to Jiang Yuebai. Fang Ruyan, the head of Feiyan Pavilion, is now the head of the Fang family, so she will definitely take care of this matter.
The chief shopkeeper said in a deep voice, "Only two people came to Feiyan Pavilion. They acted very cautiously and were all new faces who had just entered Feiyan Pavilion."
Xie Jingshan waved his hand, "Let's not worry about Feiyan Pavilion. Do you have a way for us to sneak into Tieyu Country?"
The chief shopkeeper looked embarrassed and said, "This may be difficult. Currently, all countries are migrating to Tieyu Country. Tieyu Country has strict security, and even the spies from Hongyan Tower cannot sneak in."
Xie Jingshan's face was filled with worry, and his tail was wagging in annoyance.
Jiang Yuebai pointed at a few lines of information on the intelligence and asked the chief innkeeper, "What's going on with the strange people of the Feather Clan that appeared outside the city?"
The chief shopkeeper took a quick look and said, "They have been lingering outside the mountain city for half a month. They have not entered the city and have not made any unusual movements. The people at Hongyan Tower have not alerted them, but have just been keeping an eye on them."
Jiang Yuebai tapped his fingers on the table, thinking about the past and the present, and made a bold guess.
"Is it possible that these two Feather Tribe aliens are waiting for the fox girl? The fox girl wants to take Fang's child to the Iron Feather Nation. If this child is used well, it will be a major blow to those immortal cultivation families who like to raise alien slaves."
Xie Jingshan blinked and thought, then nodded slightly.
Jiang Yuebai stood up and said, "I know how we can get into Tieyu Country."
The second update is in the afternoon, please be patient~
