"Senior brother, there is something on your mind? Why don't you say it openly? Do you not regard me as your brother?
When I return to the city this time, I will leave soon. If I don’t tell you now, I won’t have the chance.”
After some small talk, Hou Zi keenly discovered Wang Daoren's problem. Of course, Wang Daoren might have let him discover it on purpose, because it was difficult to talk about such things directly, and he always had to find an introduction.
Daoren Wang was startled, shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I am ashamed, my heart is hard, I want to say something but am too timid to say it, and I cannot face it alone if I don't say it. In fact, it is all on my face, it is obvious.
I was thinking about it in my heart, but I still insisted on it with my mouth, which made me feel extremely embarrassed."
After gathering his composure, he decided not to put on airs anymore, "Captain Ouyang gave me a task to evaluate the position of the Commander-in-Chief. If I succeed, I will stay, and if I fail, I will find another way. The task is like this..."
In terms of terrain, the State of Yan borders four countries in total, namely Anhe State, Wei State, Xinye Buddha State, and Shangqiu State.
Hou Zi has stayed in three borders, such as Dafengyuan bordering Anhe State, Yinling opposite Wei State, and Xiong'er is also a place in the Three Realms that is in contact with Wei State Xinyedu.
There is only one border that he has never been to, which is the border between Yan State and Shangqiu State.
The state religion in Shangqiu is the Cult of Worship, which can barely be regarded as a branch of the Demon Sect Alliance, but it is not a core member of the Demon Sect Alliance.
Among the five countries of the Southwest Demon Sect Alliance, the most die-hard ones are Yan Sect Quanzhen, Hu Xia Huncheng, and Yunzhang Hua Xue. These three are very closely connected, and they feel like they are dependent on each other; the remaining two, whether Linhai Wo Sect Whether you go to the upper mound to worship, the overall feeling is always a feeling of being far away.
Both within the order and outside the mainstream;
Linhai Wo Sect is because its huge commercial interests are closely related to Taoism and cannot be separated from it; worshiping at the top of the hill is another reason, historical reasons, which are not enough for outsiders.
Wang Daoren's mission is at the junction of Shan State and Shangqiu, a place called Qiunan Grand Canyon.
"The Qiunan Grand Canyon is a well-known dangerous place in the southwest region. It is not comparable to the Yinling Black Swamp in the Gale Plains. Due to the topography, not only monsters are rampant in it, but also there are swarms of bandits. Because of the dangerous environment, it is also a place between two countries. There is no separation of powers and responsibilities, so the situation becomes out of control."
He took out the map and pointed to a winding line on the map that ran for thousands of miles and said, "This is the border line between the two countries. It intersects with each other; it looks like a line, but the inner space is actually a wide one that can be hundreds of miles wide." The Grand Canyon can hide millions of troops.
According to historical distinctions, this grand canyon should belong to the Shangqiu Kingdom, but because it is an embedded semi-underground space, the ownership is not clear.
I have more than enough desire to learn from you, but not enough strength. However, because the space of the Grand Canyon is not suitable for sword cultivation and vertical escape fighting, I am too lazy to reach out. Slowly, it has become a valley without a master, a place outside the law."
Hou Zi nodded, "Who is going to take action?"
Wang Daoren's face was solemn, "It's because I want to take action. Those guys went too far and robbed and killed a group of Shangqiu caravans passing through. The master behind it was a powerful infant transformation Supreme Elder who was worshiping me." , so he ordered the following to clean up and purge.
You know, after hundreds of years of accumulation, the gangs in the Grand Canyon have long been entangled with the border forces of the Worship Cult in terms of interests. No one knows how many people have been bribed. Therefore, the elder used private The relationship has connected us with the Quanzhen Sect."
Hou Zi chuckled, "Are you afraid that this supreme elder is a supporter of the alliance?"
Wang Daoren lowered his voice, "Yes, the Worshiping Sect is wavering in the alliance. It wants to rely on the alliance to gain a foothold, but it also wants to remain neutral. Among them, the Supreme Elder is a sensible person, and he is also an internal advocate of the Worshiping Sect to integrate into the alliance.
core strength, so we cannot refuse his request.
This elder has a very close relationship with the Quanzhen Sikong Mansion. His request is not that we send many people to assist in the purge, but that he wants the Sikong Mansion to send people to supervise the war to prevent possible fraud and cheating during the purge.
.
The Sikong Mansion was unable to keep up its own manpower, so it asked the capable governors below to send people to assist. Our new officer, Ouyang Duwei, took office at a time of enthusiasm, and of course he would not miss such an opportunity to perform.
So I fought for a spot.
I am the unlucky one. After hiding for five years, I ended up on this job."
Hou Zi shook his head. There were some things he couldn't say. If Wang Daoren had been more proactive and behaved more when the new official took office, he wouldn't have encountered such a big thunder now.
When Quanzhen of the Yanmen went out to fight, most of the time, the Zhongjun Mansion was the main focus, but if the battle got a little bigger, there would be monks from the Duwei Mansion accompanying him to control and restrain possible excesses. This is the meaning of the tripartite confrontation of the three prefectures.
But the extension of supervision to other forces is rare and full of challenges; from an internal perspective in Quanzhen, the Duwei Mansion supervises the Zhongjun Mansion during battles. Such internal supervision will attract monks from the Zhongjun Mansion.
dissatisfaction, there will be all kinds of resistance in the process, let alone supervising outsiders, resistance behavior is almost inevitable.
Such a situation requires the supervising monks to have strong control, a mature mind, and strong strength. Otherwise, they will be looked down upon. Not to mention supervising and guiding, even those with weak temperaments can be led astray.
Wang Daoren was obviously not a good candidate. He didn't believe that Captain Ouyang couldn't tell. Is there such a big hatred between the two parties? As for pushing Wang Daoren into the fire pit? Li Chuping would really push the situation into an uncontrollable situation.
What impression do you make?
Li Chuping now works in the Sikong Mansion and is his boss. Can he be easily offended?
"When did senior brother receive the order?"
Wang Daoren was disappointed, "Just an hour ago, I was asked to rush to the Grand Canyon within five days to meet up. It came very suddenly and I was caught off guard."
Hou Zi nodded, he had some calculations in his mind, but he didn't point it out, "It seems that the scale of this operation is not small. I'm afraid it's not just Jincheng that transfers people?"
Wang Daoren nodded, "That should be the case, but in order to keep it confidential, Captain Ouyang didn't say much to me; but since I am in the Captain's Mansion, I still have some understanding of some special places.
The power of chaos in the Grand Canyon is not weak. There are many human cultivators and monsters in the Three Realms of Tongtian, which form their own system. They even do not rule out the existence of Jindan cultivators. The Sikong Mansion should know these inside stories. It is impossible for them to be in the Grand Canyon without them.
Eyeliner.
So this cleanup will definitely be led by Jindan monks who teach by personal teachings, but I don’t know if there will be supervision by the Jindan judge of Sikong Mansion?”
Hou Zi pondered for a moment and realized that these were the consistent principles of the Duwei Mansion, which were mysterious and strict.
"Senior brother, how about I make this trip for you?"
