"Your Highness!" Ren Baqian was lying on the fence on the second floor looking at the hall below, when a man hurried over to greet him.
Ren Baqian smiled, he had seen the other party when he just entered the door before, he was an old acquaintance!
Zhan Changkong!
The master of the Jinhuan Mansion, Zhan Caixian's father, is now serving as the Deputy Qianhu in the Izumo Guard of the Duwei Mansion.
A few years later, Zhan Changkong seemed much more energetic. I don't know if the old tree has bloomed again after being alone in Izumo for so long!
Otherwise, why look at the red face
But these things have nothing to do with him, Ren Baqian turned and entered the room: "Come in and talk!"
Xin Zhe had just stood behind him, and immediately followed him when he saw him enter the room, standing in a corner without saying a word.
Zhan Changkong closed the door carefully, and respectfully said to Xinzhe as if he hadn't seen it:
"Why is Your Highness here? I heard that there was a man who looked like an ancient man heading east from Liangcheng. I thought I had time to check it out, but I never thought it was His Highness!"
Ren Baqian nodded slightly, he didn't tell the people in the Captain's Mansion that he would come, they were able to pay attention to him when most of their energy was on investigating that big case, they did a good job!
After all, they have only been in Izumo for more than three years, and the manpower is not sufficient. It seems that they have developed well locally.
If Ren Baqian remembered correctly, there are now about 10,000 strong men in Izumo, scattered in more than 400 cities, with an average of 20 to 30 people in each city.
The lowest position in the Captain's Mansion is Tiqi, a member of the staff. This kind of wrestlers are non-staff personnel, equivalent to lifelong contract workers, mainly responsible for eyeliner.
"What happened to Izumo recently? How did your investigation go?" Ren Baqian asked directly.
"Your Highness, since before that incident, the number of Jianghu people on the street began to decrease, and after that incident, the idle Jianghu people on the street were almost invisible, only the warriors from those gangs occasionally appeared.
We originally got in touch with some Izumo warriors, and even recruited a few people as wrestlers, and got some news from them, but we haven't confirmed it yet, so we haven't reported it to His Highness yet! " Zhan Changkong said respectfully.
"explain!"
"Many Jianghu warriors who live in remote places have been emptied recently and have disappeared. Looking at their residences, there are no traces of fighting, and they all left on their own. Some masters of sects retreated one after another, but the masters of the big gangs As usual, nothing seems to have changed."
"Izumo's gang, what's going on, you can tell me later!" Ren Baqian closed his eyes, listening to Zhan Changkong's voice.
"Izumo has a total of 127 sects and gangs, among which there are thirteen famous sects, ten of which are righteous sects, two sects that are neither righteous nor evil, and only one sect of evil ways. These thirteen This sect has the greatest strength, status, and influence, and is called the Upper Thirteen Sects. That is, the unaffected ones I just mentioned.
Apart from the thirteen sects, there are 41 sects with Shenlun in charge, and almost all of them have only one Shenlun in charge. The strength of these sects is not low. Together, they have nearly 50,000 disciples.
The rest are mainly gangs composed of some earth chakra masters, or sects that used to have god chakras in charge, but are now declining. The scope of action is limited to one city, or even two or three near a city. These gangs also have a lot of people, but there are not many masters. Especially those gangs, most of their forces are in the market.
The ones we woo are members of these gangs. They don't have the cohesive force of the sect. Most of the masters in the gang are recruited from outside, so they are easier to be wooed. "
"How many sects are not affected now?" Ren Baqian asked after a moment of pondering.
"As far as we know, there are a total of thirty-four sects that have not been affected. Almost all the heads of other sects are either practicing in seclusion or going out for wandering."
"Did these gangs do what happened a few days ago?"
"According to the news we have recently investigated, before and after that, more or less masters from these sects disappeared. As for the others, we still need time to investigate!"
Hearing this, Ren Baqian opened his eyes, and his eyes were filled with ice coldness.
"In other words, all these sects are possible?"
"Yes! But we counted, and these unidentified masters add up to only a few hundred people. It seems that they can't quickly siege the patrol team, and no one has escaped."
"If there are top masters to take action, then it can be done! Is there anything unusual about ordinary disciples in those sects?"
He knows that many things in this world cannot be calculated according to common sense.
Hundreds of people seemed unable to surround and kill those patrols, Wu Kai, Captain Peng Yu, and Li Rui.
But there is a species in this world called top master.
As long as there are two or three masters in the front row of the master list, it is enough.
"No, it's just that the range of activities has been reduced, and there is no sign of a large-scale dispatch."
"Continue to investigate, hurry up, and if possible, directly find a breakthrough in those sects. As for the price, nothing is more important than their lives! In addition, hurry up to find out the situation of the top masters of Izumo!" Ren Baqian said sternly.
"Understood."
"Go!"
When Zhan Changkong stepped back, the coldness in Ren Baqian's eyes gradually subsided, and he frowned.
So many sects are involved, if it is true, it may be difficult to handle!
Even if some masters and ordinary disciples did not participate in it, but now the Empress and Manchu civil and military are all furious, and they don't have the heart to distinguish whether these disciples should die or not. As long as it is involved in it, no one can be let go.
At the beginning, the empress ordered to kill all warriors above the earth wheel, and another order was to kill all sects.
The former refers to those idle Jianghu warriors, while the other refers to these more than one hundred sects.
Are these Izumo masters collectively losing their minds? There are hundreds of sects, and each sect dares to participate in it
Or is there some organization that has extended its tentacles into all sects
If so, this organization is really scary enough!
"What do you think?" Ren Baqian asked without turning his head.
"They should all be killed!" A cold voice came from Xinzhe.
Ren Baqian rubbed his brows, as expected.
Xinzhe knew the purpose of his visit this time, not to mention the other people in the court and the empress.
It is estimated that even the empress did not have any expectations this time. It's not that she doesn't believe in herself, but that the empress just wants to kill them all!
"Tsk tsk, I'm here to save tens of thousands of lives. I'm really a saint. If my wife wants to kill someone, I come here to save her!" Ren Baqian laughed at himself.
The door was pushed open, and Li Yuanzhu walked in and said calmly to Ren Baqian: "This is for the whole human race! The ancients have the same temperament, so it doesn't make sense. You are sensible, and you have a far-sighted vision. You have big plans in your heart, so you are here."
Ren Baqian pondered for a while, then smiled at Li Yuanzhu: "I can give you a few more compliments, I don't think I'm floating yet!"
Li Yuanzhu chuckled lightly upon hearing this. "It's all Yuanzhu's words from the heart."
Ren Baqian said with emotion: "Being praised so much by the third expert in the world, although I have no wine at this time, I am about to get drunk!"
Li Yuanzhu pursed his lips and smiled without saying a word.
Although he wondered why Qi Zixiao chose such a low-strength man as his husband-in-law at the beginning, he must know that Ren Baqian was not a human wheel warrior, but an ordinary person. Compared with Qi Zixiao, one is in the sky and the other is underground.
That's right, underground, not above ground.
However, according to recent contact, Qi Zixiao is not good at other aspects, and his vision is still good.
Although this person's force is not high, he does have talent. But it's not like those scholars are proficient in poetry and poetry, but they are proficient in all aspects.
In terms of the country, he conquered the land of Tianjing, and those Jing clan people are now looking forward to him.
The current situation of Izumo is his plan. If it weren't for this incident, Izumo would have stabilized by half in just two years.
The official road is what he wants to cultivate. Although he hasn't seen the effect of this official road yet, anyone with a little knowledge will know how useful such a road is.
It is said that Dayao planned to build a new capital city along the river, and it was also planned by him.
The shaved ice, glass, street lamps, soap, toothpaste, and even the well salt produced by Dayao himself during the war are all from him.
As the head of the school, he established Dayao's first school, and also cultivated a group of students with practical ability.
Open bookstores, publish newspapers, and open up people's wisdom.
The organization at home also relies on the framework he put up.
He also took out those so-called nuclear warheads.
Now I am running for these Izumo warriors...
It can be said that this person is worth millions of troops...
I have to say, Qi Zixiao picked up the treasure!
