Chapter 294: Layout to close the net, one move is missing
"The best way to let a 'corpse' leave the city silently... then of course is to let it go out as a corpse."
Tie Tang's words were a little difficult to pronounce, but Jiang Yingxue reacted quickly.
"You mean... you want to carry the coffin out of the city?"
"Not bad!"
This trick is not new. Tie Tang also thought of a trick he had seen before and said it appropriately and beneficially at this time.
Jiang Yingxue was silent, and the void trembled slightly. Tie Tang knew that she must be secretly communicating with others to discuss countermeasures.
"Guardian, why don't we divide our troops into several groups and carry the coffin out of the city at the same time, or let this kid try again?"
"Inappropriate!"
"Now is not the time. At such a critical moment, if two or more white-collar teams suddenly appear at the same time, it will definitely attract the attention of the Supervisory Palace.
We can no longer test him... We only have one chance to send him out in the most reliable way."
Jiang Yingxue was struggling there, but Tie Tang was not in a hurry.
He was sure that Jiang Yingxue would still need to rely on the "connections" behind him to not leave him alone and not be afraid of the other party trying to test him.
Because the funeral at this time is an extremely solemn and solemn event, and its importance is equivalent to that of a red event.
It doesn’t mean that if someone in your family dies today, a procession will be arranged to leave the city for burial immediately. There are many rules and regulations involved.
[The book-chasing app recommended to me by an old book friend I have known for ten years, the Changyuan app! It is so easy to use, I rely on it to read and listen to books while driving and before going to bed. You can download it here .huanyuanapp ]
For example, it is not uncommon for a coffin to remain closed for three days, seven days, or even seven or seventy-nine days.
Even the day of burial must be carefully selected and a good and auspicious day will be selected before the procession is arranged.
So it's understandable that a funeral procession appears by chance.
Once there are more teams, something is definitely going on, and others will be able to see the problem at a glance.
For Jiang Yingxue... If this strategy is to be absolutely safe, it can only be used once. It is impossible to divide it into several batches and leave the city in vain. That would be too risky.
"Young master is indeed very talented. If this matter can be solved... I will recommend you as the hall master."
Tie Tang could finally laugh with confidence.
"But..."
"This matter is of great importance. I need to know who the young master has in contact with Guangjiang to see if it can really reassure people."
Tie Tang's laughter gradually became smaller. Firstly, he was not suitable to laugh at this time, and secondly, he really couldn't laugh anymore.
Jiang Yingxue's question is very tricky. At this moment, he is not completely reassured. He wants to see if the forces behind Tie Tang can guarantee the safety of this trip.
But this is something Tie Tang cannot say.
If he said that he had contact with the Supervisory Hall, could Jiang Yingxue still hand over people to him?
As for the other officials, he was indeed unfamiliar with them.
Judging from Jiang Yingxue's hard work in Guangjiang, it is very likely that she also hooked up with some officials and had some contact with them.
If you just say a name and go out, you may just hit someone's knife edge.
Secondly, the official’s position and power are also very important.
The power is too small to ensure travel safety.
If you have too much power, your background will become a problem. If you have friends with this class, why do you want to join a cult?
There are only a few positions in between, those with real power that can influence the entry and exit of city gates without arousing suspicion from the Overwatch Hall...
The magistrate of Guangjiang County, the magistrate of Guangjiang County, the chief arrester of Guangjiang, the commander of the first battalion of the Guangjiang Arsenal Army, etc.
These people are the ones who best meet Jiang Yingxue's requirements, but Tie Tang doesn't know any of them.
Tie Tang was hesitating, but Jiang Yingxue thought he was wondering whether to tell the person behind him. This was also a question, and she didn't think much about it.
At this time, Tie Long pretended to be close to Tie Tang, but actually secretly sent a message: "Sir, just give us your name as Tie Mansion.
I’ll ask Tieniu to come over and build her a coffin later, and I’ll make sure she won’t push back any longer.”
"So confident?"
"Sir, since she is planning in Guangjiang City, it is impossible that she does not know the names of my three brothers. The name of my Tie family coffin shop will definitely have enough weight."
Tie Tang nodded slightly, then unfolded the folding fan with a click: "There are some things that it is not convenient for Su to say.
But I can reveal a little bit...
The man behind Su has some friendship with the third boss of the Tie family Shoufangpu. As long as he arranges it...it will only take a few seconds to get out of the city."
"Oh? Is there an iron coffin... Can you please invite the third master to come and see me?"
"There is nothing you can't do."
It didn’t take long.
Tieniu came to Yanchun Tower in a arrogant manner and didn't take the people in front of him seriously.
"We want to carry the coffin out of the city, but I wonder if Master Tie has a plan?"
Tieniu Da Ma Jin Dao sat there, peeling peanuts with both hands and throwing them into his mouth. He didn't stop after hearing the words, and they all muttered a bunch of words.
"You don't need to say so much, and you don't need to think so much. Since I have been entrusted by others, I will definitely handle this matter properly.
If you can’t trust the name of my Tie family, please hire someone else.”
Tieniu's arrogant words actually gave Jiang Yingxue a glimmer of confidence.
The reputation of the Tie Family's Shoufang Shop is astonishing in Guangjiang, and she has heard about it for a long time. No one would be surprised if the Tie Family were left to handle the business.
"Okay, I'll ask the third master to build a double-layered coffin for me. The dimensions are as follows... I need it as soon as possible. Can it be done in one hour?"
"Put it on me!" Tieniu grabbed a handful of peanuts and put them in his pocket, eating them while walking.
The next thing will be much simpler.
After Tieniu built the coffin, he sent it to the address given by Jiang Yingxue, and at the same time organized a funeral procession of thirty to forty people.
Tie Tang originally wanted to take this opportunity to see the true face of the 'corpse'.
But Jiang Yingxue is also a cunning rabbit. The address to which the coffin was sent is just a false one, and the body is not there.
After the coffin was delivered, someone secretly appeared and took the coffin away again.
In order to avoid alerting the enemy, Tie Tang remained silent. He had to confirm where Luan Kang was before he could truly close the net.
An hour later.
All procedures are completed and everything is ready.
Jiang Yingxue placed several people in the funeral procession, and finally, after careful consideration, handed over this important task to Tie Tang.
"Master Su... Don't make any mistakes on this trip. As long as this matter is settled... it is not impossible for you to be above me in the future."
Tie Tang waved his white paper fan confidently: "It's OK, it's definitely OK!"
No matter how many tricks Jiang Yingxue tried, how could she have thought... that she had already made a mistake in the first step?
Tie Tang and the others transformed into three bodyguards, following the family arranged by Jiang Yingxue, and followed the funeral procession slowly out of the city.
During this period, Tie Tang secretly opened his martial arts eyes and tried to see through the appearance of the people inside the coffin.
It's a pity that this is a double-layered coffin. Inside the white jade coffin, there is also a nanmu coffin.
And inside the nanmu coffin...
It is not a corpse, but a brocade box no more than four feet long.
"So careful..."
On the surface, it was said to be a corpse to myself and others, but in fact it was still a brocade box, which probably contained a head, but I didn't know whether it was Luan Kang or not.
The brocade box is also blocked by prohibitions, and it is overlapping and more than ten times more complicated than the previous brocade box.
Once it is destroyed without authorization... it is likely to cause the brocade box to self-destruct, killing the characters inside.
Seeing that the team was about to block the city gate, Tie Tang still could not confirm the identity of the man in the coffin.
Now it's time for him to make a decision.
Without much hesitation, Tie Tang made a decision quickly.
Since you can't see through the inside of the brocade box, if you want to determine the identity of the person inside... there is another way.
That is to see the strength of the contact person.
If the other party is just an ordinary wizard...then the person in the brocade box will not be important.
If an earth witch, a celestial witch, a shaman from the realm of gods, or even a miscellaneous immortal comes here.
Even if the person in that brocade box is not Luan Kang, he must be an extremely important figure to the cult, with equal weight.
But in this case... the risk is too great, and it is possible to watch Luan Kang slip away in his hands.
Tie Tang looked up at the sky and sensed it secretly, but found nothing.
"Why haven't you come yet..."
The group of people wore sackcloth and mourning, played low-pitched sad music, and accompanied by the sound of crying, finally arrived at the Guangjiang City Gate.
The person who led the way was a well-known figure in Guangjiang City, who was responsible for such trivial matters. The guards guarding the city had seen him countless times.
The guards didn't think much, they simply asked a few questions and waved to let me go.
Red and white things are the worst things to mess with, especially the latter. Their own attributes are inherently weird, making people subconsciously want to avoid them.
The team, like a long queue, slowly passed through the Guangjiang City Gate.
In the meantime.
Jiang Yingxue and others, who were watching from afar in secret, felt as if their hearts were about to jump out of their throats.
Not bad!
I don’t know if it was Mr. Su’s ability or Tie Family Shoufangpu’s skill, but there were no accidents.
The fish talismans were not even examined, and no one would want to open the coffin for an autopsy.
After leaving the Guangjiang City Gate, the danger is not completely over. If you are too close to Guangjiang City... it will be no different from being inside the city.
You have to reach at least one or two hundred miles away before you can truly breathe a sigh of relief.
Jiang Yingxue and others were anxious to see it, and Tie Tang was also impatient.
The person he was waiting for never came.
The further the procession goes, the greater the risk for him. To him, this funeral procession is like heading to the underworld.
"It's really unreliable. Could it be that you are also a member of a cult? No way..."
Time passes bit by bit.
The funeral procession stopped twenty miles outside the city, replaced by four strong men to carry the coffin, and walked towards a high mountain.
Wait until you reach the mountainside.
Jiang Yingxue's arranged host waved away the rest of the crowd, leaving only six people and Tie Tang, who began to run through the mountains carrying the coffin, quickly rushing to the destination to meet the others.
Tie Tang's face became more and more ugly as the journey went further and further.
Seeing that he was already three hundred miles away from Guangjiang, his ears twitched and he finally smiled.
There are ancient trees and shrubs everywhere in the mountains, and there are few human traces.
Fortunately, it was broad daylight. If it were at night, a woodcutter would be scared to death if he saw a group of people carrying a coffin passing by.
It wasn't until they were less than five hundred miles away from Guangjiang that the nine people finally slowed down.
Three idle figures appeared in front.
Tie Tang glanced around and saw the two soul wizards, and subconsciously felt disappointed.
When he saw the cultivation level of the last person... he finally felt relieved.
He can't see clearly or concretely.
The other party is at least at the level of an earth witch or a celestial witch, but he doesn’t have the immortal aura of the Immortal God.
“This time it’s really settled!”
Seeing the nine people from Tie Tang coming, the three idle people suddenly stood up and walked over cheerfully to take over the coffin.
At this time, Tie Tang raised his hands in the air: "Please take action, sir!"
As soon as he finished speaking, several people around him were still confused, and a huge palm appeared in the sky.
As soon as the sky darkened, boundless oppression swept across all directions.
This giant palm filled the sky and the earth, with its five fingers standing straight upright, as tall as a mountain, and the lines on its palm were like mountains and ravines, falling from the sky with a roar.
One palm fell, erasing the hope of all the people in the cult, including the witch and Taoist sect in the secret realm of witches and wizards, who could not escape.
Whoa!
Tie Tang's eyes flashed, and there was a figure in front of him.
"Are you sure?"
"Seventy to eighty percent, at worst it's a role of similar weight, not lighter."
"Okay!"
The visitor reached out and sucked the double-layered coffin over, then cut it with his knife, breaking through the obstacles and taking out the brocade box.
There are complicated and profound restrictions around the brocade box. It's hard to stop Tie Tang, but not the one in front of you...the one in charge, Xiang Tian!
When Tie Tang was sure that Jiang Yingxue wanted him to send people out of the city again, he had already notified Xiang Tian to come.
Only this kind of people can eliminate all kinds of accidents and have the effect of making a plan to determine the outcome.
The square brocade box was held in Xiang Tian's hand, and he didn't see any big movements. He just exerted a little force with his five fingers, and the restrictions of the colorful streams of light melted as quickly as ice and snow.
When all the restrictions disappeared, Xiang Tian flicked his finger and the brocade box was completely opened.
A scarred and unrecognizable head was revealed inside.
If it’s not Luan Kang, then who is it?
"It seems that I have suffered a lot of torture, but it has really hurt this young prince."
"At least he's still alive..." Tie Tang didn't like the prince of Sixiang Hou very much. He saved him for the sake of the overall situation and for the sake of Sixiang Hou.
"Let's go back and clean up the mess." Xiang Tian took Tie Tang and the others together, and the surrounding scenery flashed by like a fleeting light, and he hurried back to Guangjiang City.
Luan Kang has been rescued, so there is no need to worry anymore, and the clues known to Guangjiang City can be uprooted.
Before entering the city, the local supervisory hall has already begun the cleanup work, apparently having been notified by Xiang Tian in advance.
When Tie Tang arrived at Yanchun Tower, he saw a body that was more than half damaged.
"Is this Lord Iron?" A shaman in black robe walked over.
Tie Tang raised his hand and gave a salute, knowing that the other party should be the inspector of the local inspection hall.
"It's Tie, what's the matter?"
"When I arrived here, this person had already committed suicide. Before she died, she left a letter with a note for Mr. Su."
"Oops!"
Tie Tang took the letter from the man's hand and called Xiang Tian to take him to the Hongyan Sect's stronghold.
The two took off again and jumped quickly.
"Sir, there is also a cult within Guangjiang City, otherwise the matter would not have been exposed so quickly."
Xiang Tian also realized the problem.
It’s not just about catching the mole and that’s it.
Whether they can be caught or not is a matter of debate. The evil cult is doing this just to disgust the court.
Tie Tang conspired like this and revealed almost no information except notifying the local supervisory office in advance.
Under such circumstances, the woman was still able to commit suicide in advance.
"If she is dead, she is dead. Could it be that she left you a letter and you are afraid?"
Tie Tang shook his head repeatedly: "It's not that Tie is afraid, but that Jiang Yingxue is a witch and Taoist who knows how to differentiate between gods.
The one in Yan Chun Tower is just her external incarnation. Once her incarnation dies, her real body must be affected.
I'm afraid that the stronghold has begun to be evacuated now, and it was difficult for us to find many clues in the past."
Originally, relying on Xiang Tian's presence, Tie Tang could first wipe out all the cult members in Guangjiang City, and then go two thousand miles away to slowly sweep away the lair.
Little did he know that the news had been leaked in advance before he returned to Guangjiang City.
"It seems that person also has some skills. She must have guessed that the problem is with you."
Only then did Tie Tang remember the letter Jiang Yingxue left her.
There were only a few words written on the yellowed envelope: 'Your Majesty Mr. Su'.
The handwriting was calm and unhurried. It was obvious that in the heat of the moment, Jiang Yingxue still wrote these words calmly.
Open the envelope and pull out a piece of pale golden paper, which also has only a short line of words.
"I will definitely avenge this!"
"Ha, it's a kid's thing." Tie Tang smiled, and a flame arose in the void, completely burning the letter in his hand.
Xiang Tian smiled and joked: "It seems you have an enemy."
"I am worried that the world will not hear Tie's name!"
