Qin Guan understood, but he was still puzzled: "Then why did you tell the truth in the first place, saying that people in the Ming Dynasty do not do secret things and should report to the Holy Lord truthfully?"
Niu Youdao joked: "If we don't scare him, can he be polite to us?"
Qin Guan suddenly realized, first scare, then stabilize... After understanding the truth, he couldn't help but laugh, looked at the things in his hands, cupped his hands and said: "It is our Zijin Cave's blessing to be able to send elders to preside over training matters.
, it is also a blessing for the two of us to be able to follow the elder, and we have learned a lot from the elder. With the elder here, the two disciples are at least not so afraid of the future, and the elder is the backbone of the two of us."
The words sounded a bit disgusting, but in fact, I really admired him sincerely. I found that this elder was really daring to do something!
He was even a little lucky. Fortunately, Elder Niu was here. If it were someone else, even if it was his master, based on his understanding of the master, he really didn't know what the master could do in the situation in front of him. At least he would definitely not dare to act like him.
Elder Niu did this.
Niu Youdao: "Okay, stop talking nonsense and go do things first."
"Yes!" Qin Guan took the order and stepped back, quickly sending out the petition at hand.
Niu Youdao dug out a map, the map given to him by Chang Qingshan, and compared it under the light to find the holy places where each of the Nine Saints lived.
He drew his sword under the lamp, put it aside, and held the scabbard in his hand as a ruler. He pointed his finger at the location of Shou Que Villa and drew a straight line to the location of Wentian City. He stretched the scabbard across the scabbard to measure the distance. Then he measured Shou Que again.
The distance from the villa to the dead end of the wasteland.
After comparing the two places, I roughly calculated the distance between the two places based on the flight time of large birds, and I had a good idea of the scale of the entire map and the actual terrain.
Then he calculated the round trip time of the Golden Wing with his fingers. Based on his experience with the Golden Wing's flight speed, he roughly calculated how far the Communication Golden Wing would fly this time. His fingers made a rough outline on the scabbard.
ratio length.
Afterwards, one end of the scabbard was positioned at the location of Wentian City, and it turned around with the fixed point as the center. The approximate flight range of the Golden Wings was revealed. Niu Youdao's fingertips briefly traced the map, leaving some marks to circle the range for easy viewing.
.
Afterwards, he put his hands on the table and looked at the map.
The flying range of the Golden Wings is fixed in a circle. Daluo Holy Land, Heavenly Demon Holy Land, Ice and Snow Holy Land, Tianmu Holy Land, Wuxu Holy Land, and Wuming Holy Land are all excluded from the Golden Wings' flying range.
There is almost no need to consider those outside the circle. After all, there is still time to receive and check the Golden Wings after they arrive.
Within the flying range of Golden Wings, only the Great Yuan Holy Land, the Sky Blue Holy Land, and the Wushuang Holy Land are left.
Niu Youdao drew a circle with his finger along the nail prints on the map. The one closest to this circle was the Sky Blue Holy Land, that is, the saint who controlled the Boundless Pavilion, Lan Daolin!
Niu Youdao had a thoughtful look on his face. Based on the time calculation, if there were no special circumstances and the other party did not keep the golden wings for too long, then the saint he was expressing his feelings for was most likely Lan Daolin.
If Golden Wings is detained long enough, it is also possible to visit the Great Yuan Holy Land and the Wushuang Holy Land. If it is the Great Yuan Holy Land, Ding Wei is from the Great Yuan Holy Land...
Standing in front of the map, looking at the sword with the light on, I thought a lot, and kept thinking about it. When I was lost in thought, Ke Dingjie knocked on the door and came in. Niu Youdao came back to his senses.
"Elder, do you have any orders?" Ke Dingjie asked. He had been responsible for guarding the surroundings. He had just changed shifts with Qin Guan and saw that the lights in Elder Niu's room were still on, so he came to ask.
Niu Youdao shook his head slightly: "You go to rest first."
When Ke Dingjie saw the map on the table, he asked in astonishment: "Is this a map of the Holy Land?" He seemed to be curious as to where it came from.
Niu Youdao nodded: "It's a map of the Holy Land. I just took it out from the bookshelf. You can also look through it if you have time. It won't hurt you to know more about the terrain of the Holy Land. You can know it well when you encounter trouble.
It can be used as a reference when choosing.”
"Yes!" Ke Dingjie agreed. He actually wanted to know what the overall terrain of this holy land was like, but now that the elder was watching, he couldn't disturb him. Seeing that he had no other instructions, he left first.
Niu Youdao stayed up all night. After turning off the lights, he was still immersed in the darkness alone with his sword on his knees, his eyes deep...
As the rising sun rose, the elders from various factions who met Taishu Shanhai at the Inspection Department yesterday gathered together again.
After some discussion, everyone went out together to go to Yaohu Division to find Niu Youdao.
However, as soon as he went out, he was blocked by people from Piaomiao Pavilion before he had gone far. The visitor cupped his hands and said, "Everyone, Manager Xuan has summoned you."
Everyone looked at each other and had no choice but to follow that person.
When they arrived at the gate of the city's central hub, the group met an acquaintance and saw Niu Youdao also coming.
"Everyone, you look good." Niu Youdao greeted him cheerfully.
Everyone's attitude was indifferent, no one responded, but a few couldn't help but glance at Niu Youdao, staring at Niu Youdao's movement with his sword in hand after letting go.
After entering the main hall of the mansion, everyone discovered that the eight deacons related to them had arrived first and stood in a row on the left.
At the leader's signal, the eight elders stood in a row on the right, corresponding to the eight deacons opposite.
"Brother, how was your rest last night?" Long Fanhai, who was opposite, took the lead in saying hello to Niu Youdao, with a smile on his face.
Niu Youdao handed over his hand: "It's okay, thank you Brother Long for taking care of me."
Long Fanhai chuckled: "You're welcome, if you need anything, just ask."
As soon as these words came out, Taishu Shanhai and others exchanged glances with each other, and they all murmured in their hearts. It seemed that Kunlinshu was right.
Not to mention them, the other deacons of the Seven Divisions also looked suspicious when they saw this situation.
After everyone waited for a while, Xuan Yao came out of the back hall, and people in the two rows on the left and right bowed their hands in salute.
Xuan Yao raised his hand to signal that everyone would refrain from courtesy. Then his eyes fell on the elders of the eight sects, focusing on Niu Youdao who looked calm. Later he asked: "Eight elders, are you used to the station assigned to you?
?”
"It's okay." Eight people responded.
Xuan Yao: "Don't worry. I called you and the eight division deacons who corresponded to you here today to solve the problem face to face. After a night, I found that I am not used to it. If I find any problems, I can raise them.
In order to cooperate with your inspection, we will find ways to solve it. Don't be polite, if you have any questions, feel free to raise them. As long as there are no violations and can be corrected, we will try our best to correct them."
What could be the problem? At most, I feel that the attitude of each department towards me is not good. No one dares to mention this for fear of offending each department. We are all people who have been around for such a long time. What can we say and what can't be said?
, everyone knows what they are saying. Just listen to what is said on the scene, and do not take it seriously, otherwise you will be asking for trouble.
Of course, Niu Youdao did not have this problem with Yaohu Division. Long Fanhai treated him very politely and enthusiastically.
After waiting for a while, Xuan Yao asked: "What, is everything okay?"
Niu Youdao spoke up, stared at Long Fanhai and smiled: "No problem."
Long Fanhai smiled back. On the surface, he seemed satisfied with the other party's answer, but in his heart, he was muttering, "I'll let you relax for now, but you will cry later."
The secret sentinel he arranged had already discovered it. In the middle of the night, Niu Youdao released golden wings again. He didn't know what he was doing, which made him more determined. Niu Youdao was a troubled person and could not be kept any longer.
, must be removed as soon as possible.
Niu Youdao took the lead in saying this, and the other seven people also responded vaguely, saying that it was no problem.
Xuan Yao: "Okay, since everyone expressed their satisfaction with the current arrangements in public, and since there are no problems, I will report it like this. Okay, if there is nothing else to do, everyone will go back and do their own thing."
"Yes!" Everyone shouted in unison and accepted the order.
Just as they were about to disperse, someone strode towards them from outside. The leader was Ding Wei, with his cloak swaying behind him, and four people following him.
People who wanted to leave the main hall rushed in because of Ding Wei's arrival, but were blocked and pushed back.
"Sir." Xuan Yao bowed his hands and took the initiative to step aside from his seat.
Ding Wei walked to his seat, turned around, glanced at everyone, and asked, "Why are you all gathered here?"
"Verified the location of the inspectors..." Xuan Yao immediately explained the reason for summoning everyone.
Ding Wei was noncommittal about this, his eyes paused on Niu Youdao's face, and then fell on Xuan Yao, and suddenly said slowly: "Take down Xuan Yao!"
"Uh..." Xuan Yao looked up in shock, thinking he heard wrongly.
However, it turned out that he was right. The four people who came with Ding Wei heard the order and swarmed forward. They restrained Xuan Yao on the spot. They pinned his arms and held down his shoulders.
Most of the people at the scene were shocked. I don’t know what happened. They saw Xuan Yao standing tall and arrogant just now, but why did he get arrested in the blink of an eye?
Xuan Yao struggled for a moment and said loudly: "Sir, this subordinate has no fault at all. Why is this so?"
Ding Wei: "Whether you are at fault or not, we will tell you after verification. Now you just need to cooperate with the interrogation. If you have anything to say, tell the interrogator. Don't make any noise here. Take it with you!"
The two men who pinned Xuan Yao's arms took him away on the spot.
Xuan Yao looked scared and anxious. He looked back at the expressionless Ding Wei from time to time, but he didn't dare to call out anymore.
The scene seemed to be extremely quiet. Ding Wei said indifferently: "Niu Youdao will stay for a while, and the others will disperse."
"Yes!" Everyone followed the order and left. The elders of the seven sects kept looking back when they went out. They didn't know what Ding Wei was doing when he left Niu Youdao alone.
Niu Youdao was the only one left standing in the hall. Ding Wei waved his hand again, and the followers standing on the left and right also walked out quickly.
There were only two people left in the hall. Ding Wei, half wrapped in a cloak, walked slowly to Niu Youdao and asked expressionlessly: "Did you express your love to the Holy Lord and sue Xuan Yao?"
He came all night, and the reason why he came suddenly was because he received the relevant decree, asking Piaomiao Pavilion to strictly investigate whether Xuan Yao was avenging his personal revenge and retaliating against Niu Youdao. This matter did not require him to come forward in person, but he still did it in person
coming.
He is not sure that it is Niu Youdao now, but this happened suddenly, and he can't think of anyone other than Niu Youdao who is related to it.
Niu Youdao politely raised his hands and said: "Yes!"
