In the Jiedushi Mansion, he had no connections, no background, no one he was familiar with, and the scope of his activities was tightly squeezed. Not to mention that there was no way, even if there was a way, it would be difficult to find out how to operate it.
space.
Such a large Jiedu Envoy's Mansion is carefully defended everywhere, and there is almost no way to escape, otherwise Zhang Jiaquan would have been killed long ago.
One can imagine how difficult it would be for Zhuo Mufeng to leave safely with a group of people.
It's not like he hasn't thought about using force to break out. After all, he has a sister in white by his side, but again, how can he ensure the safety of others?
After thinking about it, I actually had no clue. I originally thought that there was still room for maneuver when I came to the Jiedu Envoy Mansion, but then I realized that this was a dull knife with an invisible force. It seemed to have no sharp edge from the Demon Sect, but in fact it was even worse.
To be irresistible.
It was night, on a certain street in Weiyu City.
A watchman was beating a golden gong, and the clanging sound kept ringing. When he passed a shop, a small paper ball fell from his hand and rolled into the gap beside the steps.
There were still passers-by at night, and a beggar came here and knocked on the door of the shop to beg. Only angry shouts were heard from inside the door, and he finally left angrily.
The beggar made many twists and turns. After looking around, he saw that no one was following him and entered the back door of a house in a certain alley.
Soon after, a person secretly left the house.
There is a huge manor to the east of Weiyu Road. In the inner house of the manor, in a deep courtyard filled with the fragrance of wintersweet, you can see an octagonal pavilion covered with white snow. Nine people are sitting in the pavilion.
"We have fallen into a trap!" Yao Wu put down the ball of paper spread out in his hand and sighed: "Zhang Jiaquan must have guessed that our last answer was intended to deceive, and then he is sure that there must be a Demon Emperor Pearl in the Heavenly Puppet Formation."
The rest were puzzled at first, but after listening to Yao Wu's explanation, they suddenly realized, and immediately became angry and fearful. They had only dealt with Zhang Jiaquan in recent years. The more they came into contact with him, the more they were shocked by his scheming methods. He was worthy of territorial autonomy.
Heroic figure.
Aunt Lei: "What do you think Zhang Jiaquan means?"
The ignorant monk sitting on one side was the first to react: "No, once the truth is told to him, the man named Zhang will definitely embarrass the leader, and then the leader will be in danger!"
Everyone was speechless. If they hadn't known that this bald donkey was just stupid, they would have treated him as a traitor and worked together to kill him. Are you still worried about that bastard Zhuo Mufeng? Don't you think everyone has been used miserably enough?
The Ten Thousand Transformation Demon Art, the Demon Emperor Pearl and the Demon Seal were all promised, but in the end they didn't get any of them, and they also lost Master Tianpuppet and many great masters in vain. Thinking about it makes them heartbroken!
Butcher Li said fiercely: "Bald Donkey, are you having trouble in your head? If you are so worried about Zhuo, why don't you save him?"
The unwise monk frowned and said, "Do you think I'm stupid? How can I save me alone? If you are willing to help me, I'm not afraid of giving it a try."
But seeing everyone else looking at him with a look like "Aren't you stupid?" Wu Zhi Monk's face turned red and he was shaking with anger, but he didn't dare to fall out with everyone, so he slapped his palm on the stone table and groaned heavily.
There was a sound.
Ignoring this idiot, Aunt Lei said calmly: "Judging from the reply given by Zhang Jiaquan, the boy named Zhuo must have handed over the Demon Emperor Pearl, but Zhang Jiaquan cannot be sure of the amount."
Butcher Li said with a cruel smile: "In that case, we might as well falsely report a number and let Zhang Jiaquan kill that bastard!" A typical killing with a borrowed knife.
These words made some people's eyes sparkle. Before the wise monk could stop him, Du Yuehong objected: "No. Just imagine, with Zhuo Mufeng's cunningness, how could he give all eight Demon Emperor Pearls to Zhang Jiaquan?"
?
According to my understanding of that boy, he must have something to hide, and maybe he only gave two or three. However, Zhang Jiaquan is very scheming, so he asked us to find out the situation. Once we tell the truth, we will not be able to get our hands on the Devil's Emperor Pearl.
"
There was silence in the pavilion. Even the murderous Butcher Li didn't refute, he just had a sullen face.
As super masters with strong martial arts, the nine of them had not thought of breaking into the Jiedushi Mansion. They had tried it before, but the power of the Jiedushi Mansion's defense mechanisms was beyond the imagination of outsiders.
That time, before they even entered the interior, the army in the city had received the news and gathered, and they were so frightened that they could only flee in panic.
So this time, even if they knew that Zhuo Mufeng was at Jiedushi Mansion, they could not even think of robbing people.
Heart-Destroying Yama said: "We might as well report the number lower. When the time comes, we will attack Zhuo Mufeng, and there will always be a chance to get some."
As soon as these words came out, Yao Wu immediately objected: "It's inappropriate!"
Heart-Destroying Yama: "What's wrong?"
Yao Wu: "Once Zhang Jiaquan gets enough Demon Emperor Pearls, will he still keep Zhuo Mufeng alive? I'm afraid we won't even be able to find Zhuo Mufeng's body."
Everyone couldn't help but froze, unable to give any reason to refute.
Aunt Lei looked at Yao Wu: "Stupid scholar, you have the most evil ideas here. What do you think?"
Yao Wu pondered for a long time, and then Fang Ning said: "Zhang Jiaquan is by no means an easy person. Let alone Zhuo Mufeng's fate, this place is Wei Yudao, can we defeat him?
No matter how many Demon Emperor Pearls are offered, they will all end up being wedding dresses for Zhang Jiaquan!
In this case, we will simply remain unchanged in response to all changes, and let Zhang Jiaquan hang up first. If you want to spy on the secrets of my magic sect, how can you do it without paying a price?"
Everyone present was Lao Jianghu. How could they not understand the meaning of Yao Wu's words? He wanted to take the opportunity to ask for benefits from Zhang Jiaquan. As for the final decision, it was not up to them.
On the other hand, it can also delay Zhang Jiaquan's attack on Zhuo Mufeng, leaving them more opportunities to plan.
Although it sounds rogue, there seems to be no better solution to the situation at hand.
"Hahaha, stinky scholar, stinky scholar, you scholars are all really bad, very bad!" Wan Jian Yanluo pointed at Yao Wu and laughed.
The others also looked weird, but Nu Yanluo punched the pavilion pillar and gritted his teeth and said: "That guy named Zhang and that bastard named Zhuo are not good things, so let them bite for a while first!
"
Hearing this, the wise monk was not happy and scolded Wrath Yama, not satisfied with his insulting Zhuo Mufeng. The latter got into a fight with Zhuo Mufeng, and finally provoked everyone to try to persuade him, fearing that the two men with bad tempers would get into a fight.
At noon the next day.
Zhang Jiaquan received the news from the Demon Sect and sneered: "Asking for favors from Pindao is indeed a bunch of scumbags with a petty attitude."
Lao Fang cupped his hands and said, "Sir, how should I reply?"
Zhang Jiaquan: "They were sure that Pindao would have no way to deal with them for the time being, so they acted unscrupulously."
His fingers tapped the table rhythmically, and after a while of silence, he sarcastically said: "To satisfy them, as long as they give the answer, they will give away one hundred thousand taels of silver, and 40,000 pairs of long and contradictory cards." The group of people from the Demon Sect were thinking.
I don’t believe they won’t be tempted to regain the world.”
Lao Fang urged: "Sir, what if those villains fool around with an answer?" In his opinion, this is a 90% chance, and those people from the Demon Sect are not good at it.
Zhang Jiaquan: "Sooner or later, they will understand that there is no benefit in hiding it. If you don't hide it, there is at least hope. Besides, isn't a Demon Emperor's Pearl worth the reward for the Demon Sect?
Even if you don't use that thing, you can resell it to the Twelve Holy Lands, and you will get more than what you paid for. Old Fang, you can't even settle this account?"
The words woke up the dreamer, and Lao Fang suddenly understood. He only had full admiration for Zhang Jiaquan in his heart, nodded in response, and hurried downstairs.
At the same time, a group of servants, protected by guards, were purchasing daily supplies in Weiyu City.
When we arrived at a rouge and gouache shop, the customers dispersed, the guards guarded the surrounding area, and the servants entered in a grand manner. This was obviously not the first time.
One of them smelled a strange smell in his nose. For some reason, his stomach began to cramp, and he rushed into the hut behind the shop.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered, he was slapped unconscious, his clothes were taken off, and he was tied to the beam roof of the latrine.
The sneak attacker put on his clothes and took out a disguise mask from his arms. After putting it on, his face was 90% similar to that of the knocked-out slave.
Amidst the clicking sound, the sneaker's stature shrank by two inches for no apparent reason. He thought he was closer to the slaves. He stayed in the hut for a while, then turned around and went out. Just as the servants in the store were about to leave, he followed the crowd.
And out.
The kidnapped people in the hut were quickly taken away by a man and a woman and disappeared without a trace.
After leaving the shop, the purchasers searched around the city for supplies, loaded two large carriages, and then headed back home, which turned out to be the Jiedu Envoy's Mansion.
The supplies in the carriage need to go through rounds of inspections, and even the people returning must be identified one by one.
However, for the sake of safety and preventing infiltration by others, the Jiedushi Mansion had different people going out to buy each time, and the order was irregular, so that although the guards at the door were quite impressed by everyone, they were not familiar with them.
There is no need to be familiar with it, just remember your body shape and appearance.
This made it easier for the sneak attacker, allowing him to sneak into the Jiedushi Mansion in a thrilling manner, which was unpalatable to outsiders.
In the first two days after arriving, this person was very calm and did not dare to wander around. At most, he only observed the Jiedushi Mansion within his own scope of activities.
He can also imitate the voice of the person being impersonated, and he could hear it clearly when tailing him in the city.
At noon that day, he was ordered to clean a wing, accompanied by other servants. When he turned around several corridors, a vast white ice lake came into view.
This person looked around everywhere, and suddenly his eyes focused, with excitement in his eyes. Not far away, by the lake, a man and a woman were swimming hand in hand. The man was handsome and the woman was beautiful, like a golden boy and a beautiful girl. It was Zhuo Mu.
Feng He Wu Yuanyuan.
Even more coincidentally, the two parties were walking on the same cobblestone road, facing each other.
This person quietly moved his steps so that he was walking on the right side of the crowd, but he was still three steps away from the men and women passing by.
His eyes flashed, his feet stepped on a red pebble covered with frost and white snow, and with a sound, he slid towards the man and woman on the right.
Before he fell to the ground, the man grabbed his shoulders and lifted him up. The man hurriedly thanked him and then turned around and walked away.
The servants who were walking in front heard the noise and turned back one after another, but saw that nothing happened and they didn't take it to heart. The identities of Zhuo Mufeng and others were not publicized in the mansion.
"Are you okay?" Wu Yuanyuan looked concerned.
"Are you looking down on your husband too much?" Zhuo Mufeng laughed.
Wu Yuanyuan thought so, so she ignored this incident and continued to take Zhuo Mufeng for a stroll. The two of them walked around in a circle as usual, and then returned to the yard.
As soon as he returned to the room, Zhuo Mufeng immediately closed the door, then opened his palms, and there was a ball of paper in his hand. When he opened it, there was a line of words written on it: Young Master, I am Barong.
