Also because they live by the water, the cities on this vast grassland must be built along the river.
If you want to reach your destination, you can go straight in the direction of the river.
When the horse was tired from running, it encountered a herdsman's fenced habitat on the way. When it stopped, a group of people jumped off the horse and paid money. The owner warmly entertained the horse.
Watching everyone changing horses, Niu Youdao was a little distracted.
He also received news about Danbang on the way, which shocked him. Bingxue Pavilion actually knew that he had killed Zhuo Chao. How did Bingxue Pavilion know?
The situation of the fighting at that time, the killer's death and arrest, it is impossible to leak the situation at the scene.
Naturally, he himself would not go around talking nonsense, so the news could only be leaked in two places. Either the monks from the three sects who participated in the scene leaked it, or the disciples of the three sects passed the news back to the three sects.
Someone within the three factions leaked the news.
He even suspected that Xiaoyue Pavilion also had an informant from Bingxue Pavilion. He got the news from one side and confirmed it from the other side. After all, it was not child's play for Bingxue Pavilion to publicly announce such news to the world.
He immediately sent a message back and asked the three factions to investigate closely. However, the three factions' reply was that they did not dare to investigate!
Regarding this answer, he could only acquiesce. He could understand the fear of the three factions and did not dare to check the people of Ice and Snow Pavilion!
He couldn't help but feel lucky that when he first came up with the idea of Chiyang Zhuguo, he didn't use anyone from the sect just to be on the safe side, but instead used a few casual cultivators around him. He didn't believe that Ice and Snow Pavilion could reach out to every casual cultivator in the world.
.
What worries him is the inside story of the fight with Shao Pingbo. Will someone leak the news at Dachan Mountain?
Black Mudan led the saddled horse over and asked, "Master Tao, are you still thinking about the Danbang?"
Niu Youdao sighed, "This Ice and Snow Pavilion is amazing, it's so pervasive!"
Black Peony: "It's not difficult to understand. With the power of the Ice and Snow Pavilion, if you want to develop a few informants in any sect, it will be easy to find people who are willing to work for them. In addition, it is not necessarily the Ice and Snow Pavilion's hand that has reached out to the three sects.
On the other hand, this pill list is supported by several forces on the Supreme side, otherwise it would not be possible. Therefore, the information may not be obtained personally by the forces of Ice and Snow Pavilion, but may also be provided by other forces. In short, under normal circumstances, as long as
Follow their rules of the game, and as long as you don't offend them, they look down on all living beings from a high place and won't interfere in anything, so it's not a very dangerous thing."
Not dangerous? Niu Youdao raised his eyebrows. This incident reminded him that he should be careful in the future.
"If Bingxue Pavilion wants to develop you as their spy, will you agree?" Niu Youdao turned around and asked.
Black Peony sighed: "If you really find me, how can I refuse? I can't resist, and I can't refuse! But I can promise that I will tell you secretly!" After that, she smiled.
Niu Youdao chuckled, looked up at the sky, saw a line of flying birds, and exclaimed: "This pill list is amazing! Not only can it make people kill each other, it can also scare many people, making people dare not infringe on the interests of those few!"
He was shocked this time. After this time, he never dared to borrow the light of those people easily again. He was afraid when he thought about Chiyang Zhuguo!
Like waves of green grass, boundless, a golden wing fell from the sky and fell into the hands of the Wuliang Mountain disciples.
After the secret message was urgently translated, Gongsun Bu sent it over, "Master Tao, there is news from home."
After Niu Youdao took it in his hand and looked at it, he was silent for a while and said: "Let the family tell them that there is nothing to talk about, let them get out!"
Gongsun Bu asked: "Are you going back like this?"
He was also a little curious. Today, he found out that some of the rumors were indeed true. This person really should be the head of the Shangqing Sect.
Even he couldn't help but secretly sigh, this Shangqing Sect is really short-sighted!
Niu Youdao: "If you send me the words Qingzong, it will be hard to recover!"
"Okay!" Gongsun Bu turned and left.
Black Mudan was curious and asked: "Did the Shangqing Sect come to visit?"
Niu Youdao handed her the secret letter.
Black Peony took it and gave it to her. Naturally, she could see it. After seeing it, she couldn't help but shake her head.
The secret letter said that the Shangqing Sect sent Tuhan to Qingshan County and brought a handwritten letter from Tang Yi, the head of the Shangqing Sect. Tang Yi meant that he was willing to abdicate in favor of a worthy person and return the position of the head of the Shangqing Sect to Niu.
There is a way.
As for her fault, Tang Yi said that she was willing to bear it alone and bear any consequences Niu Youdao gave her!
Black Peony secretly sighed. She holds the power of being the leader, is willing to give up, and is willing to take responsibility. With this alone, it is not easy to do it!
She now looked at Tang Yigao.
He crumpled the letter in his palms and used magic to slowly crush it into powder. He observed Niu Youdao's expression and tried to remind him, "Tang Yi is a great beauty. Is Master Dao willing to give up like this?"
Niu Youdao tilted his head and asked, "Is it okay to live with you?"
Black Peony rolled her eyes, raised her hand and sprinkled the powder of the secret letter with a look of contempt.
Niu Youdao smiled happily. He was bored on the way and it was understandable to have some fun occasionally. The key was that he didn't want to talk about Tang Yi with her.
However, Black Mudan saw that he seemed not as free and easy as he appeared, and seemed to still be concerned about Shang Qingzong.
Niu Youdao looked at the sky with his hands behind his hands. He was concerned. He was fine before, but after what happened at Wubian Pavilion, the Shangqing Sect came to visit him, which made him a little upset.
He will not go back to the Shangqing Sect, and he is not interested in the Shangqing Sect. Even if he excludes the emotional factors of personal preference, he cannot run back to the Shangqing Sect and start from scratch, bringing the Shangqing Sect to the Shang Dynasty Sect.
It is even more unrealistic. Due to the impact of the past, it is really not appropriate for the Shangqing Sect to be involved with people of Shang Jianbo's lineage, otherwise any consequences may occur.
In addition... yes, the Shangqing Sect felt sorry for him and didn't teach him anything, but he owed Dong Guo Haoran a favor. His cultivation can be said to be a gift from Dong Guo Haoran. This time he faced Zhuo Chao, which can also be said to be Dong Guo Haoran's.
The condensed cultivation essence saved his life.
Dongguo Haoran is already dead. If he wants to return the favor, he may not be able to do so!
The endless chatter made him a little upset...
In the vast grassland, a ring of mountains is located in the shape of a basin.
Three rivers flow into the basin and turn into six rivers that twist and flow out. In the center of the basin sits a huge city, the largest city on the entire prairie. It is like a pearl on the prairie and is also regarded by people on the entire prairie.
It is the city of "Pearl".
This is the capital of Qi State. It is located in this basin. The surrounding mountains are natural barriers, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack!
The capital of a country is naturally prosperous, with people coming and going on the streets, rows of houses, and secluded courtyards.
The prosperous capital has its own place for fireworks. 'Baiyunjian' is known as the number one place for fun and entertainment in Qi Jing, a real gold-selling cave. Just looking at the red walls, green tiles, carved beams and painted buildings outside, it is full of luxury, and guests are welcomed at the door.
There is constant traffic, with warblers, swallows, and swallows fluttering to greet and send guests, and the colorful lanterns inside stay on day and night.
Deep in the joyful place, you can find tranquility amidst the hustle and bustle, and the quiet courtyard seems to be far away from the hustle and bustle of the world.
Among the pavilions and pavilions shaded by greenery, the sound of the piano is tinkling solitary, as if there is a melancholy that cannot be dispatched.
Su Zhao, who was wearing a palace dress, was sitting alone playing the piano, her slender fingers moving freely, her face was pretty but expressionless.
She changed her clothes and showed off her graceful figure.
A woman in gorgeous clothes, slightly plump, and painted with makeup came over after hearing the sound. She stood silently outside the pavilion for a while, sighed softly, slowly walked into the pavilion, walked to the piano and said: "If the owner doesn't
If you're in a bad mood, stop playing."
On the surface, Su Zhao is the boss of 'Baiyunjian', but according to some insiders in Qi Jing, the real owner behind 'Baiyunjian' is a certain prince, and Su Zhao is secretly raised by that prince.
of forbidden love.
And this plump woman is the old bustard on the "Baiyunjian" table, named Qin Mian.
As she said, Su Zhao dropped his sleeves, put down his hands, stood up, stopped playing, and walked to the railing to watch the fish swimming in the pond.
Qin Mian walked up to her and asked, "My boss is still upset about Mr. Bai's reprimand?"
"I didn't handle the matter well, and the master's reprimand was justified, as I heard." Su Zhao said coldly, but his mood was hard to cheer.
It was not because he was scolded by the master, but because of Shao Pingbo's analysis, he understood that Linghuqiu was actually from Xiaoyue Pavilion. The master obviously knew about it and was obviously hiding it from him. To put it another way, did he not believe it?
Own?
Qin Mian chuckled, "If my boss is really unhappy, you might as well go out and relax. I know a place with delicious food. How about I accompany my boss to try it?"
Su Zhao said calmly: "It's not just like eating here and there, what else can be delicious?"
Qin Mian smiled and said, "That's not necessarily true. There is a new restaurant called 'Tofu House' in the south of the city. The food there is very interesting and wonderful!"
"Tofu House?" Su Zhao was confused and turned around and asked, "Why does this name sound weird? Is there anything special about it?"
Qin Mian said: "According to the people in that restaurant, the food they sell is made of soybeans, so it's called tofu."
Su Zhao didn't seem to believe it, "I've never tasted soybeans, what other tricks can I make?"
Qin Mian chuckled and said, "My boss, you've really been tricked. Business is booming. Now you have to queue up if you want to eat."
"Oh!" Su Zhao was somewhat interested, nodded and said, "That's fine, just take a look."
So the two of them walked out from the pavilions. Qin Mian waved from left to right on the way, and four men wearing servants' clothes immediately appeared to accompany them.
There is a river at the back door of 'Baiyunjian'. Several people walked out of the water pavilion at the back door and boarded a beautiful flower boat directly, with Baiyunjian's signature lanterns hung on the boat.
The boatman propped up the pole, and the boat left the water pavilion and swayed away.
Su Zhao was sitting in the elegant cabin, looking at the scenery outside the window through the bead curtain, but she was a little distracted and didn't know what she was thinking.
Taking a detour through the city's waterways, it took a lot of time to arrive at Minghu Lake in the south of the city.
The boat was still swinging in the lake. Qin Mian pointed through the bead curtain to a place with a few green willow trees on the lakeside in the distance. "Master, did you see that the place where the queue is long is the tofu restaurant."
