Zuan replied in a deep voice: "Uncle, I have my intentions, but unfortunately it is not convenient to explain at the moment. I hope uncle will not take offense."
Sang Hong took a deep look at him, and finally said, "You called me uncle, so of course I believe you. Since you said that, I won't ask."
I don't know this stinky boy. I was the prefect of Mingyue City at the beginning. Qiu Honglei, the oiran of Shenxianju, has an ambiguous relationship with him. This guy is really very carefree.
Thinking of his daughter, he didn't know why he was a little unhappy, and then said: "I will go to the prefect's mansion now, and discuss with the prefect Zhang about escorting the demon girl. You just ran around outside too hard, go back and rest early. "
"Thank you uncle." Zaan breathed a sigh of relief when he agreed.
Just as he was about to leave, he was stopped by Sang Hong: "Azu, I want to remind you that it is human nature to be young to Mu Ai, but it is also necessary to distinguish the identity of the other party. Some women are best not to be contaminated."
Zuan was suddenly sweaty, and it seemed that he still couldn't hide it from him, so he had to say, "Uncle taught me a lesson."
Seeing that although he said this, he still looked a little disapproving. Sang Hong snorted angrily, and didn't bother to persuade him. Anyway, Qian'er also borrowed him to use it, and he didn't really want to recruit him as his son-in-law. Just the grandson.
Watching Sang Hong lead people to the prefect's mansion, while Zu An went back to the pier, Gao Ying and Pei You asked him if Sun Xun had made things difficult for him before. He gave a general response to what had just happened because he was worried about Qiu Hong's tears. , then went back to the room on the pretext of taking a rest.
Gao Ying and Pei You also tossed around in the middle of the night. They were so sleepy that they went back to their rooms to rest.
Zuan secretly changed into the clothes of the embroidered messenger in the room and came to Xiao Jianren's room.
Because Sang Hong and Zuan left at the beginning, the base camp on the ship needs to be guarded after all, and Xiao Jianren is naturally the best candidate.
He was reading at night with the light on, and his eyes were almost on the table. Obviously, his myopia was quite serious.
But after all, he stood out among the embroidered messengers who came out in large numbers. Although his eyes were not very good, his hearing was very keen. As soon as Zaan entered the room, he noticed the difference: "Who?"
"It's me!" Zu An said angrily, "I reminded you before to stop reading at night, your eyes will be unbearable. After returning to Beijing, ask the college to get you a pair of glass glasses or an ever-bright lantern."
Zuan had specifically inquired before that the academy's disciples who had personally passed on wine for sacrifice had all kinds of inventions, they also had things like glasses, but they were not made of glass, but colored glass, and at the same time they were engraved with special runes and magic circles. It has the same effect as glasses, so the cost is quite expensive.
As for the ever-bright lantern, the one that Zuan gave to Xie Daoyun before was one of them, but it was the most precious and advanced one. Although Zuan sympathized with Xiao Jianren, between men and girls, he would definitely choose girls.
"It's alright, I've gotten used to it for so many years," Xiao Jianren put the bookmark in the place he just saw, and closed it carefully, as if he was treating some kind of baby, "The glass glasses and lanterns produced by the academy are too expensive. It's not something someone like me can afford."
Zuan is also very speechless. In fact, as a silver embroidered messenger, his salary is not low. After saving a few years, he can still get one, but every time he spends the money to buy books for the first time, And he read all kinds of miscellaneous books, as long as there were characters, even the pastry packaging bags of some restaurants in the capital, he could read them with relish for a long time.
Buying all kinds of books made him the most impoverished person in Xiulou, and naturally he was reluctant to buy things from the college.
"By the way, do you know the Demon Cult's stronghold in Yi County?" Zuan didn't forget his business, and hurriedly asked that he needed to contact Yun Jianyue as soon as possible so that he could discuss with her how to rescue Qiu Honglei.
Xiao Jianren couldn't help but said: "Your Excellency is too flattering for me. If the stronghold of the Demon Sect could be easily known, it would have been wiped out by the government. But I can try to contact the local embroidered messenger intelligence network and see if I can find it. Some not-so-confidential strongholds, such strongholds often leave one or two spies in each place within their monitoring range, so as not to destroy them and need to re-explore the new strongholds of the magic sect. Of course, this kind of Strongholds are generally not of much value, so I don’t know if they are useful to adults.”
"You find it first." Zaun had no choice but to try.
If it is a last resort, he can only act alone.
"Okay!" Xiao Jianren cupped his hands and was about to leave when Zu An suddenly reached out and stopped him.
When he was puzzled, Zu An said in a deep voice, "Since Your Excellency is here, why didn't you show up to meet me?"
"Is there anyone?" Xiao Jianren was startled. He was always cautious, and he deliberately put some small organs around the room. It's hard to hide from his ears.
And now even if Master Eleven reminded him, he listened intently and could not hear any breathing, nor could he feel the sound of vitality fluctuations. How high would the other party be to achieve this
At this moment, a cold voice came from outside: "I was careful enough that I didn't expect to be heard by you. As expected, it is a gold embroidered garment."
As soon as the voice fell, the window was pushed open, and a black shadow flashed in. Xiao Jianren was about to draw his knife, but he was suddenly stunned.
Because the shadow directly ripped off the night clothes outside, revealing the clothes inside. Isn't that characteristic cloud dragon pattern the uniform of the embroidered messenger
Moreover, the neckline of the other party is inlaid with gold trim, and he is still a gold medal embroidered messenger!
Xiao Jianren hurriedly saluted, and at the same time asked cautiously, "Is your lord the seventh lord of gold medals in charge of the intelligence network here?"
He has been in the Xiulou Archives all the year round, so naturally he knows these things.
"Gold medal seventh?" Zaan looked at each other curiously, knowing that it was the first time he had seen another gold medal messenger after so long.
The face of the other party is naturally hidden by the mask, but the eyes are bright, and the crow's feet slightly exposed at the corners of the eyes can probably tell that he is a middle-aged man.
Although his stature is small, he has a chilling aura standing there, and Xiao Jianren doesn't dare to let out his air, and he can know a thing or two.
Zuan sensed the fluctuation of vitality on the opponent's body, about the appearance of the ninth rank. However, after so many things, he also understands that with the improvement of the cultivation level, the fluctuation of vitality cannot accurately judge the real cultivation, because unless it breaks out without reservation at the moment of life and death, the fluctuation of vitality will always have a larger intensity. error.
Not to mention that there are still some magical instruments or exercises that cover up the breath in the world.
The thin middle-aged man took out a bright gold medal and showed it in front of Zaan: "Identified, the gold medal is seventh."
The items of the embroidered messenger are all standard, and there is no way for outsiders to counterfeit them, especially the special anti-counterfeiting rune array is engraved on the token, which can be easily judged by the embroidered messenger.
Xiao Jianren hurriedly took out his silver medal, but unfortunately the other party didn't even look at him, just stared straight at Zaan.
It's like this is a high-ranking officer's conversation, and you're going to the side.
Zaan also took out the waist card of the gold medal eleven, and verified each other's identity.
The seventh gold medalist breathed a sigh of relief, but quickly frowned: "Why is your cultivation so low?"
The other party has the white concubine's sachet, coupled with the practice of the practitioner Mingjing Feitai, it is difficult for people to see the real cultivation.
Zaan said indifferently: "You can beat anyone who wants to fight."
Gold Medal No. 7 couldn't help but glance at him, this guy has a sixth-grade cultivation base, and his tone is not small.
However, he does appreciate this kind of temperament a little, if the other party is obedient, he will fall into the prestige of the gold medal messenger.
This person's cultivation base is so low, it is thought that the emperor and the great commander value him more.
"I'm here this time because I want you to help verify one thing." The seventh gold medal slowly said what he meant.
