After Yu Jian lightly took the life of the man in black, Jiang Li swept away the sword light and removed the man's face mask, revealing a broad nose, big eyes, protruding cheekbones, and a face that looked a bit old.
"The face is sinister and the brows are sinister. It looks like there are a lot of lives on hand. According to universal values, he should be classified as a villain."
Jiang Li judged it with the eyes of a warlock, then controlled Mengdie to drag out the envelope, wrapped it in sword light, and melted the secret message into the moonlight.
Mengdie flew to the bottom under the bow of the ship and waited quietly.
When the man in black took action, Jiang Li sensed movement inside the Iron Pillar Temple, and he could detect the fluctuation of a cold air even from a distance.
The man in black is one mile away from the shore, but after all, he is not too far from the Iron Pillar View. If you have a keen sense, you can still detect the energy that broke out during the fight.
The main responsibility of eunuchs in the palace is to serve and protect their masters. Therefore, eunuchs are basically martial arts practitioners and are also good at perception and speed.
If you are good at perception, you can detect crises in time. If you are fast, you can prevent crises or act as a human shield for your master. Practicing martial arts can ensure your body strength and can fulfill more of your responsibility to protect your master.
Although the fight between Da Wan Sword and the man in black started and fell, the fluctuations could not be hidden from the eunuch and the temple owner.
Sure enough, after the sword light left, a figure flew out from the Iron Pillar Temple, crossed the river, leaving a long water mark, and arrived here within twenty seconds.
As for the temple owner, matters outside the Iron Pillar Temple have nothing to do with him.
The soap boots with sharp hooks at the top stepped on the boat, and the white-faced and beardless middle-aged eunuch floated to the body like a ghost.
The dream butterfly also turned into nothingness at the same time and flew up from the side.
‘This eunuch’s cultivation is not bad, but...’
Mengdie tilted her head slightly, seeming to express some doubt, 'Too weak.'
In fact, it wasn't really too weak, but it was different from what Jiang Li expected.
I thought that a person like the Fourth Prince would place a fifth-grade master beside him for personal protection. Observation during the day can also detect that the eunuch's own cultivation is not weak. But now that he has been promoted, he is middle-aged.
The eunuch is still at the sixth level, not yet at the fifth level.
For Jiang Li right now, he is a bit weak.
With such doubts, Jiang Li controlled Mengdie and continued to observe.
After seeing the true face of the man in black, the middle-aged eunuch's expression changed slightly, and then he glanced around, as if to detect traces of the murderer, and leaned over to search the body. After finding nothing, he immediately stood up, like a puff of black smoke.
, quickly returned to Tiezhu Temple.
The swiftness of his movements forward and backward seemed to indicate that he had long known that there must be a secret message on this person.
'So, the fourth prince knows that he is being watched?'
The sword light came in from the window, fell onto Jiang Li's lap, and turned into a sword body. The secret letter also fell into Jiang Li's hand.
After Jiang Li scanned it with his innate energy, he found that there was no other arrangement, so he opened the secret message.
——After Zong Ming tested Jiang Li with the phantom spirit formation, he was killed. It was suspected that Jiang Li had done it. I wonder if Zong Ming knew Jiang Li's secret.
Jiang Li was promoted, but Yuan Zhen stood in the way...
What the letter said happened during the day, and also included the movements of the fourth prince in the Iron Pillar Temple in the past few days, and the Taoist priests who had contact with the fourth prince.
As for the others, there are none.
There is no identification of oneself, no mention of the recipient, not even a generational name. Overall, it is quite simple. Apart from knowing that Zong Hai has been transmitting information to the outside world, there is not much gain.
Jiang Li still doesn't know the specific reason why the other party targeted him.
Fortunately, Zong Hai is inside Tiezhu Temple.
'In addition, the fourth prince is also in the Iron Pillar Temple.'
Jiang Li shook his hands gently, and with his innate energy, he crushed the secret letter into powder and floated it away with the wind, "It's a pity that this is the foot of the emperor, and the fourth prince has a special status. I want to deduce that he is the master."
It's hard to do it.'
As the legitimate son of the Emperor and a person qualified to inherit the throne of the Emperor, the fourth prince is protected by the Qi of the Emperor and the Great Zhou court. In addition, this place is at the feet of the Emperor and the center of the Great Zhou. If you want to break through these two "qi gravitational forces"
Even Jiang Li, the unborn son-in-law of the Gongsun family, couldn't do it.
Even Tianxuan's attempt to perform calculations caused huge fluctuations in Qi, leading to detection and counterattack.
'In any case, during the time I am preparing for the war, I may have no shortage of people to test the sword.'
It just so happens that you can also try the interpretation method of Taoguo.

······
The middle-aged eunuch rushed directly into the courtyard of the east wing. When he arrived in front of the room where the fourth prince lived, he calmed down and then gently opened the door and entered.
"Your Highness," he reported, "Chu Jiang is dead."
The lights in the room had been lit before. The fourth prince was holding a book in front of the desk and watching quietly. He didn't even frown when he heard this, he just raised the book in his hand slightly.
Seeing this, the eunuch continued: "There were no internal or external injuries on Chu Jiang's body. The cause of his death is not yet known. The secret message on his body has been taken away. Your Highness, how should we respond?"
"do nothing."
The fourth prince said calmly: "Let the people from Nantiansi investigate. This matter has nothing to do with us."
In the Great Zhou Dynasty, the murder cases of ordinary people were investigated by the police.
The relationship between the practitioners was investigated by Nan Tiansi.
Especially in the Capital of Gods, where the people are at peace at the feet of the Emperor, most murder cases involve practitioners. Generally speaking, Nan Tiansi is responsible for the investigation.
"Luring Yuan Zhen with words has already aroused Yuan Zhen's suspicion, otherwise he would not have asked Zhang Daoyi to leave with him. As far as Yu Gu is concerned, it is best not to cause any unnecessary trouble."
Now that there was no outsider, the fourth prince began to say that he was alone and had few people, truly showing the arrogance of a prince, "I only need to sit back and watch, but it is best for me to sit back and watch."
He reached out and picked up the tea cup next to him, shook it gently, and made light ripples out of the tea, "Son of a rich man, if you can't sit down in the hall, I don't want to continue to get involved in the muddy water."
The fourth prince's eyes were dim, as if the scene of the day was reflected in his eyes again.
"He actually directly challenged Yuan Zhen, regardless of the Tao Te Sect, and forced Yuan Zhen to fight between life and death. He was so bold and had no taboos."
The fourth prince's pupils focused, and there was a gloomy and gloomy color rolling in his eyes, "The Jiang family is really all rebels."
People like him rely most on their status and background, and what they hate the most are naturally those bold people who ignore their status and background. Because in the eyes of such people, there is only a distinction between enemies and friends, not between princes and common people.
Especially when you are against such people who have no taboos...
The fourth prince drank the tea in one gulp and put down the tea cup.
It's late.
I’ll start with two thousand words, because the plot ends here and it’s hard to continue writing.
There will still be 9,000 words today, don’t worry.
