After Liu Yiyi stepped into Gusu City, the beggar on the roadside was a spy.
From the time he accepted the tokens and reported them to the hall leader Shen Leiyi after hearing the news and preparing to go on a long journey, someone else must have learned about Liu Yiyi's whereabouts.
In fact, this matter is easy to deduce. You can detect the clues as long as you calm down and take a quick look. However, most of the people involved were Liu Yiyi's confidants, so she couldn't believe it for a moment.
But after Chen Tian's straightforward analysis, Liu Yiyi finally raised her neck and drank a glass of red date wine, sighing dejectedly.
"It's such a scandal in our sect. Mr. Laoshang doesn't need to worry about it."
"You should train your troops full-time, refine more Zhen Hua Dan, and strengthen the private army of water demons."
Of course, Chen Tian could tell that Liu Yiyi was feeling very lonely in her words. It was already difficult for her to accept Wong Tai Sin's defection before, and now that the Black Tiger Gang was causing trouble, she couldn't help but have mixed feelings.
However, this is indeed a private matter of the Guzhi headquarters. It is better for her to handle the investigation and punishment of spies personally, and Chen Tian does not force him to go ashore.
But then again.
Without being able to go ashore, he would not be able to contact Wangchen Restaurant and then command the Yongtai Army through Yang Niang.
Nowadays, the situation in Cangxi's northern region is changing, and he has been living in Gusu City for more than half a month. Many strategic policies need to be controlled by himself. Even though Pang Xingyun and Lian Zixin are in charge of the overall situation, he is still a little uneasy.
no.
We still have to find a way to get ashore.
Chen Tian finalized his thoughts, made plans, and prepared to find another opportunity. No matter what, he must contact Yang Niang as soon as possible.
At this time, there was a sudden gentle knocking sound outside the boat. He opened the curtains and looked outside, and found Xie Pengfan resurfaced with an excited face.
"What's the matter?"
"Master Qi, the alchemy tripod has been transported away, but there are still many heavy objects under the water, especially the big bed that is as cold as ice. It still cannot be lifted according to the method just now."
Xie Pengfan was in high spirits, not caring at all about the cold autumn water, but his big face was as red as a soldering iron from the intense work.
It was the first time for him to see so many treasures. They were piled up like a beach and the river bed was covered with nowhere to put his feet.
Using space to store items is extremely labor-intensive. For example, Chentian's Xumi ring can only be used by Yang Niang and Tong Ruoran.
At the beginning, the Twelve Yin Yun elders personally selected the rewards from them. As soon as they touched the Sumeru Ring, they all fainted and fell to the ground.
Compared to them, Liu Yiyi was an extraordinary monk in the Fate Awareness Realm, and was obviously much stronger. She just vomited, which also proved that the treasures under the water were piled up like mountains.
"Isn't there more than a hundred white-flowered Paulownia roots?" Chen Tian smiled, "Tie them directly to the treasure and transport them back to the Guzhi headquarters."
"...The white-flowered Paulownia has great buoyancy, how can it sink like the bottom of the water?" Xie Pengfan looked troubled.
Chen Tian pointed to the pottery urn on the sampan boat: "Put it together with heavy objects and sink to the bottom together, and then unload it."
Xie Pengfan pondered for a moment, feeling that this was indeed feasible, but suddenly added: "The pottery urns are useful for holding water on top of sampans and boats, but they are quite choked underneath."
Hear this.
Chen Tian looked at Xie Pengfan blankly.
Xie Pengfan was very familiar with this kind of look. He also looked like this when he saw Rong Jin acting stupidly.
When Liu Yiyi heard the conversation between the two, she finally couldn't sit still. She leaned on the window edge and raised her hand to hit Xie Pengfan's head with chopsticks: "You are stupid, does a pottery jar have to contain water to be considered a heavy object?"
"There are so many gold bars and silver ingots at the bottom of the water. You can fish them up and put them into pottery urns, then tie them to white-flowered Paulownia trees and sink them to the bottom of the water. Then, using the difference in buoyancy, you can use the White-flowered Paulownia trees to lift the big bed."
Speaking of this, Liu Yiyi still couldn't help but glared and said: "Is this such a small thing so difficult? I have to break it into pieces and tell it to you, right?"
When Xie Pengfan suddenly realized this, he scratched the back of his head in embarrassment. After cupping his fists and saluting, he turned around and dived into the water again.
However, Chen Tian suddenly stopped him and warned: "The salvage matter cannot be delayed. It must be completed as soon as possible. This place is very close to the East Gate Pier. If it attracts attention, it will be troublesome."
"Yes!" Xie Pengfan nodded and left.
It was noon, and the sunlight shone on the water surface even more sparklingly. The trees on both sides of the bank moved in the wind, and the large fallen leaves fluttered through the sieve, making a sound.
As the white-flowered Paulownia rose and floated, a large amount of gold and silver treasures were gradually packed into wooden boxes. However, in order to hide their presence, they were only dragged to the bottom of the water by fishing nets, so Chen Tian did not see the scene of the jewels soaring into the sky.
The water demon private army quickly mastered the salvage skills, and Chen Tian felt that he no longer needed to be there to direct, so he accompanied Zhang Xuanbing to sit in bed quietly and returned to the Guzhi headquarters first.
Halfway through the journey, he saw the water demon cutting through the wind and waves in front of the black-topped boat. He suddenly turned around and asked Liu Yiyi: "Among the 1,200 private soldiers, why is there no Hulu?"
Hulu is also known as Zhupolong.
Folks often call it crocodile.
It is said that there are fierce tigers in the mountains and unruly laws in the water, and ordinary people all talk about it without changing their expressions.
It stands to reason that Hu Lu's combat power is particularly powerful, so Liu Yiyi should give it some thought as he enlightens all kinds of mountain monsters and water monsters.
But Chen Tian carefully looked through the directory of the water demon private army, but found no trace at all. Something was obviously wrong.
"Hu Lu? There was indeed one in our headquarters before. His body was still an alligator, and his combat power was quite impressive." Liu Yiyi fell into memories and said frankly, "Before Xie Pengfan, he was also the commander of the water demon."
"What happened next?"
"Later, the Feng Shui spring was robbed, and Gu Zhi's financial resources were not enough to purchase a large number of spiritual stones. The mountain monsters and water monsters under his command gradually lost their human form, and their realm plummeted. He ended up following Liubo Navy on a reconnaissance mission and disappeared without a trace.
Return."
"Then it is very likely that he has reverted back to his original form, lost his mind, and can no longer find his way home." Chen Tian tried to say.
"Alas -" Liu Yiyi sighed.
Chen Tian pondered for a long time, and seemed to have seen this alligator. At that time, Linjiang City's Anvil Xuanjia Battalion took the initiative to launch an offensive against Makino, and Liubo City's navy was on the side to support it.
Then he ordered Fan Changxiang to lead the Yongzi Battalion to intercept Liubo Navy and test the power of the magical arrows. Among them, Qusi Superintendent Xu Xian led the formation with the Yin and Yang Twin Evil Snakes.
That volley was certainly beautiful.
Han Yuankai, the commander of the Liubo Navy, did not even make a decent counterattack and was killed immediately. The one who beheaded him was an alligator.
However, according to Xu Xian's story, he voluntarily joined Qu Si Prison and was not forcibly tamed.
With his military exploits, he also became the guardian of the Yin and Yang twin evil snakes, and also accepted incense offerings from the Dragon King Temple in Changhe.

As a thought flashed across his mind, Chen Tian was stunned. He never expected that he would unintentionally poach Liu Yiyi.
certainly.
Chen Tian did not explain the whole story to Liu Yiyi, because firstly, his identity would be exposed, and secondly, it would inevitably lead to embarrassment.
"Cultivation is like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat." Chen Tian sighed sincerely, and suddenly asked, "Who is the name of that alligator leader?"
"He Yangxia, what does this name mean?" Liu Yiyi smiled, with bright eyes and white teeth, "When I rescued him, it was the Dragon Boat Festival, and he was chased and beaten by a group of people for stealing sacrificial water offerings."
"The name is good." Chen Tian smiled.
At this time, he couldn't help but wonder, is Guzhi a disgusting intelligence agency, or is it a special organization for the weak Yizhuang?
It’s no wonder that most of the mountain monsters and water monsters within the thousand-mile radius of Gusu City are left to her to punish, and they are so busy that they don’t even touch the ground. If I am also a foreigner who is having a hard time transforming, and suddenly encounters an extraordinary monk in the Fate Awakening Realm who takes action righteously, I will not give up.
If you follow her with all your might, at least you won't turn against her.
