The night watchmen in the Demon Division of Luocheng Town were obviously worried about these situations, so they made a commotion.
The red-clothed envoy was quickly taken to report the situation to Lu Bing, Qi Longfei and others.
The night watchmen of the Demon Division in Luocheng Town gathered together in twos and threes to discuss the matter.
The joy of victory was affected and became a little depressed and depressed.
Even the night watchmen began to make preparations to support other prefectures and counties, sharpening their skills and getting ready to go.
However, it didn't take long for Qin Qiaoer to send someone over and call the night watchmen with official positions above the general banner into Xue Qingshan's mission room. On behalf of Lu Bing and Qi Longfei, he reported the information brought back by the red-clothed envoy.
"Don't worry, let alone think too much. The red-clothed envoy just now did not come back to ask for help, but brought good news."
Everyone was stunned when they heard the news.
Annunciation?
What kind of happy retribution is this? It can't be so fast that the red-clothed messenger put an end to the Black Lotus Rebellion, right?
Qin Shaoyou has a close relationship with Qin Qiaoer, so he asked this question on behalf of everyone:
"Commander Qin, which prefecture and county did they go to and quell the Black Lotus Rebellion there so quickly?"
Qin Qiaoer replied: "They went to Miancheng. However, they were not the ones to quell the Black Lotus Sect's rebellion in Miancheng. When they arrived, the situation there had been brought under control.
According to reports from the local Demon Suppression Department, at the beginning of the Black Lotus Sect’s demons’ rebellion, there was a burly scholar holding a big sword who promptly warned the Demon Suppression Department, so that the Demon Suppression Bureau was on guard and was not attacked by the Black Lotus Sect’s demons.
success.
The scholar at the back, while chanting Confucian mantras and waving his sword, led them in the lead and defeated the rebellious Black Lotus demons..."
Qin Shaoyou knew Miancheng, it was just north of Luocheng, and it was the closest prefectural city to Luocheng, even closer than Mianyuan County to Luocheng.
If the red-clad messenger works hard, he can indeed run back and forth in one night and one morning.
What really made Qin Shaoyou curious was the tall scholar holding a big sword.
Who is this person? Why does his fighting style look so like Xue Xiaobao?
Although he was curious, Qin Shaoyou did not ask in a hurry because this question was not the focus.
After Qin Qiaoer finished telling the good news brought back by the red-clothed envoy, he asked everyone to go out and appease their subordinates, so as not to cause them to misunderstand, let alone cause some unnecessary commotion.
Xu Baan, Lu Xin and others took orders one after another and went out to report the news to their respective subordinates.
Qin Shaoyou did not leave in a hurry, but stayed and curiously asked: "Sister, who is that scholar?"
"have no idea."
Qin Qiaoer shook his head.
"The night watchman of Miancheng Prefecture said that at the end of the battle, the scholar disappeared. They didn't even have time to ask his name or say thank you."
"I know, just ask me."
A voice sounded, it was Xue Xiaobao.
After capturing the white-robed monk alive, Lu Bing and Qi Longfei went to the Confucian Temple and invited Qin Lin and Qin Erlang back to the Demon Suppression Division.
Xue Xiaobao was also picked up together.
When he came back, Xue Qingshan was busy running around and had no time to care about him. And he didn't want to go back to the backyard to mess with his mother, so he simply stayed in the yard of the Demon Suppression Division to watch the fun.
When Qin Qiaoer summoned officials above the general banner, Xue Xiaobao also ran over to join in the fun.
Because this was not a confidential matter, although Qin Qiaoer saw him, she did not drive him away.
And Xue Xiaobao did not expect that the melon he ate would actually end up on the head of an acquaintance.
However, when Xue Qingshan saw him, he frowned and reprimanded: "The adults are talking, why are you, a child, interrupting?"
Xue Xiaobao was unhappy: "I didn't interrupt, who did I interrupt? What I told is the truth, I really know it!"
"You really know?"
Qin Shaoyou glanced at him, thoughtfully.
"Could it be that the senior brother who taught you swordsmanship?"
Xue Xiaobao nodded and said: "That's right! He is tall and strong, uses a big sword, has a bad temper, and can rush faster than anyone else in a fight. It must be my senior brother who didn't run away. I said why didn't he stay with the master? It turns out
He ran to Miancheng. Huh, you didn’t take me there, it’s so uninteresting!”
Xue Qingshan didn't expect that Xue Xiaobao really knew. Thinking of his reprimand just now, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
After hearing what Xue Xiaobao said, Qin Shaoyou remembered that when they first visited the Master, Xue Xiaobao had indeed asked the Master why his senior brother was not there.
The master's answer was that his disciple was out on business.
So, is it a coincidence that Xue Xiaobao's senior brother appeared in Miancheng to help the night watchmen of Miancheng put out the Black Lotus Rebellion and protect the people in the city from harm, or did the Master have arrangements in advance?
Thinking of this, Qin Shaoyou asked: "Xiaobao, besides this senior brother, do you have any other senior brothers?"
"Yes, there are many senior brothers out there, but I haven't seen many of them."
"Have you seen these senior brothers in the past few days since you came back?"
"No."
Xue Xiaobao shook his head and said: "Master said, they have something to go out."
Sure enough.
Qin Shaoyou can be sure that the master has probably predicted that when the demons of the Black Lotus Sect come to Luocheng to arrest Qin Erlang, they will cause the Black Lotus Sect believers lurking in various places in Yizhou to take advantage of the situation and cause chaos.
This not only provides cover for their actions, but also entangles the Demon Suppression Departments across Yizhou, preventing the night watchmen from providing immediate support to Luocheng.
So the Master secretly sent his disciples to various places, overtly or covertly, to help the Demon Suppressors in various places deal with the rebellion of the Black Lotus Sect.
The master did not tell them this matter, probably because he was afraid that when they sent a message to remind the demon-suppressing departments in various places, the news would be leaked and the people of the Black Lotus would know about it, so they made arrangements and preparations.
From this point of view, the master is also an old yin...ahem, a scheming and prepared person.
At the same time, it can also be seen that his disciples are probably not bad in strength.
Qin Shaoyou glanced at Qin Qiaoer. His sixth sister had obviously thought of these situations and breathed a sigh of relief.
If all prefectures and counties can be like Miancheng Prefecture, the people will be safe.
Zhu Xiucai didn't think so deeply, he just marveled: "Xiaobao, your senior brother seems to be quite powerful."
Xue Xiaobao puffed up his chest proudly and looked proud.
"Of course! My senior brother is very powerful, but he once had a serious illness, which caused him to lose a lot of cultivation. It was only recently that he slowly recovered... According to my senior brother, when he was at his peak,
Even my husband was beaten violently!"
Qin Shaoyou looked at him, half-smiling but not smiling: "You seem to be envious?"
Xue Qingshan's face darkened, and he subconsciously pulled out his belt.
Xue Xiaobao was startled and hurriedly hid behind Qin Qiaoer, shouting: "Auntie, save me." He said with a guilty conscience: "How can I be envious? Uncle, please don't talk nonsense!"
Qin Shaoyou hurriedly stopped him: "Brother-in-law, I was joking with Xiaobao, don't take it seriously."
After comforting Xue Qingshan, Qin Shaoyou asked Xue Xiaobao: "Did that senior brother of yours really beat the master? Aren't they masters and disciples? Why did they really beat him?"
Xue Xiaobao explained: "When the senior brother beat the master violently, he had not yet worshiped the master as his teacher. Of course, the senior brother said that he beat the master violently. When the master mentioned this matter, he was saying that the senior brother wanted to beat him, but he ended up being beaten by him.
His virtue convinces others."
Qin Shaoyou glanced at the big sword carried by Xue Xiaobao.
Master’s purpose of convincing others with virtue is not to use this ‘virtue’ sword to conquer others, right?
Don’t tell me, this possibility is very high!
After figuring out these things, Qin Shaoyou did not stay in Xue Qingshan's mission room for long before taking Zhu Xiucai away.
"etc."
He was about to turn around and leave, but was stopped by Qin Qiaoer.
"Just let the scholar report the news brought back by the red-clothed envoy. You have other tasks."
"What mission?" Qin Shaoyou stopped and asked.
"Execution, kill Yang Lianzan, the Blood Sea Buddha of the Black Lotus Sect!"
