A group of people have been quietly discussing how to deal with Hong Ji for so many years, but it turns out that Hong Ji is in front of a group of people, or even next to them. It's exciting to think about it.
As for how Zhang Mingtu recognized it, it still had something to do with the Demonic Blood Sword.
Zhang Mingtu felt the clear breath of the blood knife on the pole on the man's body.
In this case, if you move your head slightly, you will know what the specific situation is.
The other party is Hong Ji, who has changed his identity and appearance, and comes here...
"No, no matter how courageous Xuedao Hongji is, I'm afraid he doesn't have this kind of courage, right? If you walk directly to Jin Yiwei, aren't you afraid of dying immediately?"
Inexplicably, Zhang Mingtu thought of the characters in the Land of the Rising Sun who secretly provided relevant intelligence information.
I thought about the abnormal situation of Xue Cheng’s job promotion before.
"There are situations where an expert in art is bold, but there is also another possibility. The other party has a detailed understanding of the court and the county government..."
Zhang Mingtu will never forget that Blood Sword Hong Ji once hid in the county government office in the future and was killed by him in the palace of the Royal Registrar.
The other party is not unclear about the county government, the imperial court, and various situations.
On the contrary, the other party is likely to be very clear about it.
After all, what the other party does most of the time is quite decisive and sophisticated, even to the point of being exaggerated and terrifying.
When faced with three master-level figures, he did not hesitate, but chose to defeat them one by one. He was quite familiar with the martial arts of the three masters, and even knew their personalities.
The whole battle looked like Blood Sword Hong Ji was cold and bold, but in fact this was the reason why the opponent's intelligence was accurate and true.
"But this time, the information will be unexpected."
Zhang Mingtu raised his eyebrows but didn't say much, nor did he say much.
He had made speculations and suggestions in this regard before. Although he had not mentioned it completely to Xue Cheng, after all, matters related to the Land of the Rising Sun involved too many aspects, and it would be very dangerous if he was not careful.
It's possible to alert the enemy.
However, Zhang Mingtu drew Xue Cheng's attention from another direction. He reminded Xue Cheng that the opponent's strength was extremely high, and big problems were likely to arise if the three masters were hunting him.
Judging from the current situation, the clear information presented by both parties made both Xue Cheng and Xue Dao Hong Ji feel that they had a chance to win this time.
Who will really lose and who wins will only be known once they touch each other.
At night, Zhang Mingtu was still thinking about what happened during the day and further deducing relevant situations.
At the same time, he accidentally discovered that there was a middle-aged man with an ordinary face in Jinyiwei's mansion.
Well, yes, on the first day Zhang Mingtu came to work at Jinyiwei, he couldn't even recognize everyone in Jinyiwei, but he was able to recognize an extra middle-aged man.
Yes, this middle-aged man is tall and strong, but he does not have the special domineering temperament of Jin Yiwei.
Moreover, the exercises running on his body are different from those practiced by many Jin Yiwei characters. Others may not be able to distinguish them, but Zhang Mingtu can recognize them.
This is due to Zhang Mingtu's keen observation and strong memory. Well, it was not Zhang Mingtu's first day working at Jinyiwei Mansion. He had many brothers who had worked here for many years in the future, and he was very familiar with everyone.
He has never seen this middle-aged Jin Yiwei with a strong body and a strong body.
Although there was nothing wrong with his clothes and the long knife at his waist, and he pretended to be presentable, Zhang Mingtu had indeed never seen him in his many years of service in Jinyiwei.
Zhang Mingtu can distinguish this kind of flaw by just turning it around in his mind.
Discovering the flaw in this aspect, Zhang Mingtu immediately carefully sensed the aura and state of the figure, and suddenly his face looked a little off.
The main reason is that the details of the other person's face are extremely slightly different from those of normal people, especially there are some subtle marks on the neck and the junction of hair and cheeks.
"Disguise?"
Zhang Mingtu's heart skipped a beat. He never thought there were so many twists and turns.
This disguise technique is quite skillful. If he hadn't been suspicious and recognized that the other party was not from Jin Yiwei, he wouldn't have been able to see any trace of the other party's disguise in a short period of time.
You must know that Zhang Mingtu is no ordinary person. He is the only person this year who has mastered techniques such as wing disguise, tracking, and stealth. He is an expert in this field.
Even Zhang Mingtu had to detect something wrong in his heart, observe carefully, and stare carefully before he could find some subtle flaws. One can imagine how exaggerated the other party's skills in this area are.
And Zhang Mingtu is not entirely sure yet.
"Are you from the Land of the Rising Sun?"
"No, it's Xue Cheng's."
Zhang Mingtu saw the middle-aged Jinyiwei walking into Xue Cheng's office at the Jinyiwei Clinic, and soon he could hear Xue Cheng's cheerful laughter as he chatted with him.
Zhang Mingtu suddenly knew for sure that the other party was not a spy-level figure sent by the Land of the Rising Sun, but an assistant sent by Xue Cheng from nowhere.
It may play a decisive role in the next battle.
Not only was it the strange middle-aged man, but after Zhang Mingtu gradually recalled it in his mind, he discovered that there was another person in Jinyiwei who was close to Xuecheng in the past, and his behavior was different from usual.
If you observe carefully, you can also find that there are faint traces of abnormality on his face, neck and the junction between hair and cheeks.
Of course, this kind of trace is very slight. Even with Zhang Mingtu's level of disguise makeup identification, he would not dare to make a conclusion easily.
However, combined with Zhang Mingtu's observation of the daily personalities and behaviors of the characters in Jinyiwei, and using it as an auxiliary judgment, it is almost the same.
There was a guess in his mind, but Zhang Mingtu didn't say anything.
He could be sure that the Jin Yiwei who had a close relationship with Xue Cheng had been transferred to someone else, and Xue Cheng himself knew that it was probably Xue Cheng who had done this.
After all, if a person who was very close to him in the past is suddenly disguised and impersonated, it may be okay for a short period of time, but over time, his flaws will definitely be exposed in front of close people.
Today, Xue Cheng has intentionally or unintentionally contacted and met these two disguised figures many times, and the time spent there was a bit longer than before.
Others may think that Xue Cheng's personality has changed drastically due to this recent situation, but Zhang Mingtu is very familiar with Xue Cheng and knows that he is definitely not such a person.
"Is this Xue Cheng's arrangement?"
Zhang Mingtu had difficulty distinguishing the strength of the two disguised figures.
The main reason is that these two characters are both top-notch in hiding aura. If a grandmaster wants to actively hide the corresponding aura, it will be difficult for characters below the master level to distinguish it.
If the master is very good at this, it will be even more difficult.
Zhang Mingtu was able to detect clues in this regard, but others seemed unaware of it.
However, after confirming that the two people were from Xuecheng and not other threatening figures, Zhang Mingtu continued to sit cross-legged in the room and practice.
After midnight, a letter appeared silently on Xue Cheng's desk.
Xue Cheng had just finished correcting the relevant official documents, and when he looked up, he saw the familiar font.
"Xue Chengqinqi."
When he saw those four words, Xue Cheng's heart skipped a beat.
He couldn't help but look sideways at the guard standing in the shadow of the candlelight.
They were elites specially recruited from the family to protect his safety, and they were his confidants.
At the same time, he recently had a makeover, using extremely sophisticated makeup skills to replace him with another person.
Others didn't know the clues about this figure or his details, but Xue Cheng knew it very well. This was a master he invited from his family at a great cost and connections.
He was invited from the Han family, a figure in his uncle's lineage, a figure in his grandfather's generation, and this figure also ensured that he would listen to his words and act according to his instructions.
Such a character is quite rare, and with the blood relationship, and his current position as one of the 100 Jinyiwei households in Jiujiang County, Xue Cheng can ensure that the other person is really dedicated to him.
Just to disguise himself as his bodyguard and have to protect him for a period of time, an ordinary grandmaster cannot bear this situation. After all, grandmasters have extremely high status, so there is no need to suffer such birdiness.
Seeing Xue Cheng looking over, he nodded towards him with his personal guard, still looking around alertly, his eyes were shining brightly, obviously he was still vigilant and had not relaxed.
Xue Cheng's heart skipped a beat.
When a grand master was still extremely vigilant, a letter appeared silently on his desk, and the meaning was self-evident.
The other party's level of strength is obviously higher than that of this grandmaster, or in other words, his ability to conceal himself is better than that of this grandmaster from the Han family.
Although this has been determined for a long time, after all, he is a big shot from Jin Yiwei, and he has become the grand master early on.
And once he was sent to participate in a major event involving land and inheritance, his other abilities were definitely top notch.
But Xue Cheng didn't have much idea in his mind before. Now that he saw that man taking action, he had a new evaluation of the Iron Mask Grandmaster.
"People who are not new to the Grandmaster level should go some distance in the Grandmaster realm."
Making a judgment in his mind, Xue Cheng put on his gloves and picked up the letter on the table. After a series of checks and found that it was not poisonous on the surface, he opened it carefully and took a look at it, his expression turned slightly.
There are changes.
"There is a mole. Hong Ji came to Jinyiwei's residence today."
His heart skipped a beat, but Xue Cheng's expression did not change. He placed the letter under a candle and lit it carefully. After burning it clean, he calmly ordered the guards around him.
"Bring me the records related to the people who have passed by Jinyiwei's residence in recent days."
Well, as a professional intelligence agency, there are people who are responsible for registering this information.
However, these complicated information will not be kept for long. After all, it takes too much paper to register and record this information, as well as the character's experience. It is usually retained for half a month to a month, and the relevant information will be processed together.
Soon, Xue Chengcheng turned to the characters who passed by Jinyiwei's mansion today.
It didn't take long to eliminate the characters who were often drawn from this place, and three suspects were identified.
After further questioning about the new-looking person who appeared nearby, he quickly identified the person who came here in disguise to observe.
"Hongji..."
Reciting this name softly in his heart, Xue Cheng felt a strong sense of crisis explode in his heart.
It was like not long after practicing martial arts, his uncle Han Feng personally captured a mountain soldier from the mountain forest to practice swordsmanship for him, allowing him to carefully understand the posture of the wind from the dragon and the cloud from the tiger, and the moment when the tiger roared and pounced,
He felt trembling all over and stayed where he was.
The panic and uneasiness of that moment was still fresh in his memory, and now he felt this way again.
"When will Mr. Gan Tiehua and the other two arrive?"
"They won't be able to arrive until tomorrow."
"tomorrow……"
Xue Cheng let out a sigh of relief. He wished he could recruit more people and use more promises and costs to get stronger people to protect him.
He seemed to have returned to the moment when he first practiced dancing, being exposed to the tiger's mouth, but now there was no uncle beside him who was holding the tiger's flower skin with one hand.
The feeling that this situation was gradually getting out of control made him feel uneasy.
He knew clearly that there was a terrifying beast lurking not far away, but he still pretended to be fine.
"The blacklist master, the mole."
Chewing these two words in his heart, Xue Cheng's face remained calm, and he did not even order the bodyguards around him to call over another grandmaster whom he had spent a lot of money and paid a lot of money to invite from the Xue family.
When things got to this point, he felt uneasy and surprised.
The price and commitment he made were too heavy, and he did not mention in advance the many risks and difficulties that would be encountered here.
He didn't say that he would fight against a blacklist master. He just said that his safety was greatly threatened and he needed a top person to come over and act as his guard for a period of time. He also had to change his appearance.
Just for this period of protection, he promised many things and paid a lot of money. It can be said that he was gambling.
If Blood Sword Hong Ji didn't come in the end, he would have lost a lot.
Fortunately, he won the bet, but now it was only a small step towards winning the bet. The next step is the real key to the bet.
"Why did you decide that none of the three masters could successfully capture Hong Ji?"
"Is Hong Ji's target that strong?"
The man in the iron mask hiding behind the scenes didn't say many things clearly, but with Xue Cheng's intelligence analysis ability, he could easily tell that the man in the iron mask had basically determined the situation before things developed.
Manpower sent by Liumenmen and Jinyiwei.
And it is certain that those characters are not Hong Ji's opponents, and the operation will fail.
Xue Cheng felt both surprised and reasonable.
The other party is a big shot in Jinyiwei, so he knows the internal work procedures and the corresponding masters. Even the masters of the characters in the six gates know the other party very well.
When facing a character ranked 77th on the Black List, the other party will definitely know which people they will send.
The only thing that makes Xue Cheng uncertain is how this person clearly knows the strength of Blood Sword Hong Ji and has not told anyone about it.
He even knows too much about Blood Sword Hongji.
"Master Han, have you ever heard of Mingyue Sword Technique?"
Xue Chengdu had many thoughts in his mind but did not say them out. He turned around and asked softly to the "personal guard" beside him.
