The next day, as dawn rose, people in the village had already begun to work.

Xu Xiang and Feng Baobao prepared to go up the mountain after having breakfast early in the morning. The reason why they went up the mountain after breakfast was because there was almost nothing to eat in the Taoist temple, and they would definitely starve if they went there.

When the two arrived at the Taoist temple, Zhang Song was doing morning lessons. Xu Xiang didn't dare to disturb him, so he sat down quietly beside him.

Long time no see, Taoist Priest seems to be getting older...

Xu Xiang observed Zhang Song who was reciting Huang Ting silently and thought that Zhang Song had white hair at this moment. Although his face was still the same as before, he looked a little older. It gave people a sense of vicissitudes of life.

Xu Xiang originally thought that the Taoist priest and Ah Wu were the same kind of people, but now it seems that the Taoist priest only has advanced cultivation and does not have the magical physique of Ah Wu.

After a while, Zhang Song finished chanting and spoke to Xu Xiang:

"You came back earlier this time. What happened?"

Xu Xiang didn't hide anything. He told Zhang Song about how he almost found Zhang Huaiyi several times and about his suspension. After he finished speaking, he stopped and waited for Zhang Song to speak.

Zhang Song was silent for a moment after listening, and then with a move, a piece of paper flew from the table into his hand.

After the paper was obtained, a blue light appeared, and Xu Xiang could only tell at that moment that the runes that flashed just now seemed to have the effect of blocking the meridians. The other time was too short for him to identify.

After Zhang Song wrapped the paper, he handed it to Xu Xiang and said

"Give him the letter when you get back, and he won't cause trouble for you in the future."

Xu Xiang took it and put it away silently, thinking in his mind that it seemed that the Taoist priest was not going to tolerate the minister's provocation.

But Xu Xiang was also happy to see it. That guy had been causing trouble for him in the past few years, and this time he was directly suspended from his job. If it weren't for the capital department, Xu Xiang would have wanted to take action.

He really thought he had lost his temper. After all, Xu Xiang was one of the best in the department. He had endured his anger for several years just because he wanted to help Feng Baobao find clues to the Thirty-Six Thieves.

But since the Taoist Master took action, Xu Xiang honestly followed the Taoist Master's instructions.

After the main business was finished, there were only some trivial matters left that could or should not be said, most of which were about strangers in the world. However, if it had nothing to do with the Thirty-Six Thieves, Zhang Song was not interested in it; Xu Xiang did not say much.

Xu Xiang took the opportunity to ask for advice on some spells and spells. In recent years, he had been busy dealing with affairs and had put aside his spiritual practice.

If he could still fight with Feng Baobao a few years ago, Xu Xiang might not be able to last more than a few rounds if the two of them fight again now.

Zhang Song casually made a few remarks about Xu Xiang's questions and analyzed the difficulties he encountered. Xu Xiang was enlightened and quickly took the opportunity to ask a lot more questions.

When Xiangwu was approaching and the impatient look on Zhang Song's face became more and more serious, Xu Xiang finally shut up.

Then Zhang Song called Feng Baobao over and asked some questions.

She learned that Feng Baobao was still the same and had no confusion in cultivation, but she still couldn't remember anything. Every time she tried to recall something, she would get a splitting headache.

Over the years, Zhang Song probed Feng Baobao's brain more than once, and finally understood some of the forbidden runes in Feng Baobao's mind, but he still did not dare to try it easily.

If the attempt fails, he is sure to save himself, but Feng Baobao is not sure.

However, Zhang Song had studied some banning techniques based on runes, and the one handed to Xu Xiang this time was one of them.

...

After staying in Qingshan Village for a few days, Xu Xiang was ready to return to the capital after his vacation.

His request for leave is not a resignation. If he really left without saying a word for ten days and a half, then Minister Liu might really take this opportunity to stop him.

Without the help of this department's manpower, Xu Xiang's attempt to find the Thirty-Six Thieves would be like finding a needle in a haystack.

Two days later, Xu Xiang and Feng Baobao returned to the capital.

When Xu Xiang came to the department, he found that the saying "when people leave to drink tea is really good". In the past, as soon as he came in, many people would go out of their way to say hello to him and say, "Hello, Director Xu."

Now when I saw him, I pretended not to see him and hurriedly stepped aside, as if he had an infectious disease.

Xu Xiang ignored these people, put down his things and went straight to Minister Liu's office, then knocked on the door and walked in after getting permission.

After Xu Xiang entered, everyone started talking, some were jealous, some were curious, and some were just watching.

After Xu Xiang came in, the department boss, Minister Liu Jiang, ignored him and was minding his own work correcting documents, as if he didn't exist.

Seeing this, Xu Xiang sighed silently in his heart, took out the letter Zhang Song gave him, put it on the table and said

"This is what the Taoist Master asked me to pass on to you, saying that you will understand it after reading it."

When Minister Liu heard Zhang Song, he finally looked away from the document, with a smile on his old face.

No matter how strong he was, he still had to surrender in the face of the general trend. Minister Liu thought that his actions towards Xu Xiang these days had finally made Zhang Song realize his intentions, and he sent a letter to talk to him.

But a letter alone is a bit too light, and this guy didn't know how to come to the capital to talk to him face to face. It seems that his actions are still too gentle.

Minister Liu thought to himself whether he should be more 'strict' to Xu Xiang later.

Just when he was thinking about how to 'deal with' Xu Xiang in the future, a blue light flashed on the opened letter, and dozens of mysterious runes appeared, and then instantly turned into shackles and wrapped around Liu Jiang's body.

"Uh...ah!"

Minister Liu was stunned by what happened at this moment, and then he reacted and shouted when the runes disappeared.

How audacious, how dare you attack him within the department!!

After coming back to his senses, Minister Liu touched himself up and down with some concern, and found that he was not injured and had no discomfort on his body. He suddenly became furious and slapped the table and shouted.

"Xu Xiang, you are so brave. You disobey the organization's arrangements and you dare to attack me for a crime like this!!"

The department staff outside the room were startled when they heard the minister's roar. Did Director Xu attack the minister?

Then everyone who reacted immediately rushed into the minister's office, but when they entered, they found that the situation did not seem to be the scene they imagined.

Director Xu stood obediently in front of his desk. There were no signs of injury on the minister's body, and even his clothes were not messed up. His voice was also full of energy.

Did Director Xu really take action!?

Everyone was a little suspicious, but they also knew that the minister had been suppressing Director Xu recently, but those things were not something they could understand.

"Suspend all Xu Xiang's duties and take him down! Work in pairs and keep him under my watch."

"Yes, Minister!"

Xu Xiang did not resist and was taken away honestly. This behavior made others even more suspicious.

With Director Xu's strength, even if they were present together, they might not be opponents. If they really took action against the minister, they wouldn't be so honest!

After everyone left, Liu Jiang was still furious and thought, Zhang Song, this bastard, really doesn't know how to appreciate others. If so, don't blame me for being unkind in the future.

However, he still has some understanding of Zhang Song's strength, so there should be no reason to make such boring jokes with him.

There was no damage on the surface, could it be lurking inside the body? Liu Jiang thought of this possibility, so he prepared to go to Zhoutian to check the body.

But two or three seconds later, Liu Jiang suddenly opened his eyes, seriously filled with shock and fear.

Where is his!?

Just now, he didn't feel the presence of it in his body at all! He couldn't move around at all, just like an ordinary person.

Liu Jiang hurriedly picked up the dropped letter from the ground and opened it. There were eight words on a white paper. These eight words were slowly disappearing. If he didn't pick it up and read it after a while, he would be completely destroyed.
