I waited until it started to get dark, and then Lao Mao and Da Huang slowly came over.
Dahuang always said that it was because the old cat slept in and didn't get up, so the two of them came late. However, I saw that the old cat had obviously been groomed, but Dahuang was unkempt and had obviously not even been washed. It was obvious who was sleeping in.
The two of them were not polite and sat down on the sofa as soon as they entered. Lao Mao glanced at Mengyun and Zhang Duo and probably understood what happened immediately.
Dahuang didn't have Lao Mao's observation skills, so he quickly asked: "What's wrong, Lin Yang? What happened?"
I roughly told Lao Mao and Da Huang how I saw the female ghost on my phone, how I fought, how I got on the subway, and finally met Bai Zunyi, one of the five Bai brothers.
The old cat was silent, but Dahuang yelled and kept asking: "How on earth did you escape Bai Zunyi's pursuit? Since he wanted to kill you, it was easy... By the way, that Chen Xuance
Have you told Bai Zunyi about the matter?"
I quickly shook my head and said: "Of course not, how could I betray Chen Xuance so easily? Chen Xuance has always been good to me and helped me twice, and he is probably even stronger than Bai Zunyi, so he offended Chen Xuance
, I'm afraid it will be even more uncomfortable than offending the Bai family..."
Dahuang was stunned and asked: "Since you didn't tell Bai Zunyi that it was Chen Xuance who devoured Bai Zunli, how on earth did he let you go? How did Xiaofeng devoured the female ghost of the Bai family later?"
I smiled and said, "Are you sure you want to listen? On the day Haoran was buried, I accidentally heard a very shocking secret..."
Dahuang punched me on the shoulder and said: "Stop talking nonsense, hurry up, tell me!"
I took a sip of water, sat on the sofa and started telling Haoran's story.
Starting from Haoran’s family, I told Lao Mao and Dahuang that Haoran’s identity is actually very unusual. He is a member of the Wang family among the four major families, and he is also the eldest grandson of the Wang family in the world. The reason why Haoran died in
Near the Bai family tomb, it was not the ghosts of the Bai family who did it, but a blood sacrifice array set up by the Wang family in order to turn Haoran into a powerful ghost. The Wang family even used this to frame the blame on the Bai family, hoping to make the four major families
People are resentful and dissatisfied with the Bai family...
When I finished telling this story, not to mention Rhubarb, even the old cat's eyes widened and he looked very surprised.
It seems that this secret has indeed gone beyond the scope of normal people's thinking.
Old Mao finally changed his cold demeanor. He sat forward and asked, "Lin Yang, who did you hear this secret from? Are you sure this is true?"
I quickly said: "It's absolutely true. I hid in the bathroom and listened to Haotian and Haoran's father from the Wang family. It's absolutely not wrong. Later, the great monk Lingzhao also confirmed my idea. This matter
That's absolutely true."
Old Mao nodded and said thoughtfully: "If that's the case, then the so-called Master Lingzhao of the Eight Great Masters is very likely to have a very special status... When he went to Beijing to build the subway, he originally wanted to invite experts
People came to wipe out the lonely ghosts under Sijiu City, but who knew that in the end it turned into a peace negotiation, and the two boundaries of Yin and Yang were divided and governed. This matter itself is a mysterious case, and everything is unreasonable. The identity of the old monk
, it is very likely that it was an important weight in the peace talks that year."
I couldn't help but think of Lao Mao and Da Huang's desire to investigate the matter of the people carrying the sedan chairs in the Lama Temple. I couldn't help but ask: "Old Mao, who came to ask you to investigate the matters of the people carrying the sedan chairs in the Lama Temple? Why do I think that
It seems that the person is also one of the insiders?”
Old Mao's face became serious, and he lowered his head and said: "Lin Yang, you also know that in our Yin people's business, we only take money to do things and never talk much. We must guard the secrets of our customers. And this time we are entrusted to investigate Yonghe.
The client of the palace is even more mysterious. He has never had direct contact with us and has always been an entrusted agent... so we only know that the reward for this mission is high, but we don't know who this client is..."
Seeing the sincerity of what Lao Mao said, I knew in my heart that Lao Mao definitely did not lie to me. Although the mysterious client knew something about this matter and must be an insider, Lao Mao and the others did not know.
At this time Dahuang suddenly asked me: "Lin Yang, what does this matter have to do with your subsequent escape from Bai Zunyi?"
I quickly smiled and said, "Hey, since the Wang family wants to fall out with the Bai family, I will take this opportunity to tell Bai Zunyi about this matter."
When Lao Mao and Da Huang heard this, they both became nervous.
I continued: "Before, Bai Zunli was devoured by Chen Xuance. People from the four major families didn't know about it. I told Bai Zunyi that Bai Zunli was devoured by people from the Wang family. In this way, we can provoke a fight between the Bai family and the Wang family.
In the midst of the war, do you think my strategy of sowing discord is very clever?"
Dahuang didn't say anything. Old Mao suddenly stood up from the sofa and said repeatedly: "Lin Yang... why are you so brave... you are really good. Originally, we only had to face the Bai family.
, even if the Wang family framed us, we have Wang Haoran's relationship, it is more or less possible to have a good relationship with the Wang family, you are fine now, you have directly offended both families... The Bai family is not enough for you, and you
Adding another Wang family..."
I rarely see Lao Mao say so many words at once. I probably guessed that what I did might not be very appropriate, but given the situation at that time, I really couldn't think of a better way, so I quickly defended: "
But if I don’t say that, I can’t tell Chen Xuance out, right? Firstly, Chen Xuance has always been good to me, and secondly, the consequences of offending the Chen family may not be very good... I can only do this."
The old cat sighed, showing a helpless look, and said: "Okay... Well, you reacted quickly to this matter. No matter what you do, you are destined to offend two of the four major families.
."
I nodded, but I didn't expect that the cold old cat would agree with me in the end.
After a pause for a few seconds, I suddenly said: "By the way, Old Mao, who are the origins of those eight masters? Why were eight of them found when we were building the subway?"
After hearing this, Old Mao glanced at Dahuang and said, "These eight masters are quite mysterious. In fact, I didn't know about them at first. I guess Dahuang might know better than me."
Dahuang didn't expect that the old cat would suddenly throw the question to him. He was slightly stunned and said: "I...I don't know very well..."
The old cat smiled and said: "Dahuang, we are all our own people, there is no need to hide it, just tell it."
When I heard it, it seemed that Dahuang was really related to the Eight Great Masters, but the two of them didn't say anything when they heard about the Eight Great Masters at first. Maybe Dahuang was hiding the matter at that time.
Dahuang took a sip of water and said: "Oh... Lin Yang, we are not outsiders. Let me tell you. Master also said before that in fact he is not my master. I am the successor of traditional Tao Xuan..."
I nodded and said: "I remember this. You showed your hand at the Bai family's ancestral grave. Could it be related to the Eight Great Masters?"
Dahuang nodded with a smile and said: "I didn't tell anyone about this matter originally, but since we encountered such a dangerous thing in Shangjing, I might as well tell you, but you must keep it secret from me."
I nodded solemnly, it seemed that rhubarb was really related to the Eight Great Masters.
Just listen to Dahuang Youyou say: "Actually, I didn't know this Eight Great Masters at first, but then I asked my master..."
"Your master? Isn't that the old cat?" I asked quickly.
Dahuang glared at me, as if he was very dissatisfied with me for interrupting him, and said, "Don't interrupt yet. The master I'm talking about is the master who taught me the Taomu Sword, not Lao Mao."
It suddenly dawned on me that Dahuang’s master this time was referring to his real master. I have never understood Dahuang’s identity and origin, and Lao Mao didn’t seem to understand it very well either. I don’t know how these two people came to be together.
One piece.
But it seems that the old cat admires Dahuang very much. Otherwise, with the cold character of the old cat, he would not let Dahuang follow him.
Just listen to Dahuang continue: "My master has a very weird temper, and he usually doesn't want to talk to me, but if I don't talk to him about this matter, something big will happen, so I asked him yesterday... guess what?"
When Dahuang said this, he deliberately let it slip.
This rhubarb is really good, and even now it is deliberately trying to show off. I quickly urged: "Hurry up and tell me, why are you trying to show off!"
Dahuang crossed his legs, showed an impressive expression, and said with a smile: "My master, haha, is also one of the eight great masters, didn't you expect that?!"
After hearing this, I was dumbfounded. I originally thought that Dahuang was just the apprentice of a powerful Taoist priest, but I didn't expect that Dahuang's master was actually one of the eight masters who had met with the four major families of the Ghost Domain under the Sijiu City.
, isn’t this too ridiculous?
I couldn't help but have some doubts and asked: "No, Dahuang, you must have been quite young when the subway was being built. Did you only know now that your master was involved in this matter?"
Dahuang smiled and said: "What's the matter? My master, that old guy, always likes to hide everything and never tell me anything. If I hadn't asked, he wouldn't have told me this time."
I asked: "Then did your master say any other important information?"
Dahuang said: "Of course, do you know who these eight masters are?"
When I saw that Dahuang was showing off his skills again, I was so angry that I almost fought with him.
Dahuang said quickly: "Don't be anxious, don't be anxious, let me explain slowly..."
