Evergreen Immortal

"Are you talking about Kong Xiannian from Huaqing Sect?"

Wu Tu was stunned when he heard the name, and then hurriedly asked: "Did he attack you?"

Li Rui shook his head: "He just asked me some questions."

He concealed the fact that Kong Xiannian used the magic to deceive him.

Wu Tu was relieved when he heard this: "I have heard of this person. This time, Huaqing Sect sent two agents to Qinghe, and Kong Xiannian is one of them."

"Agent?"

Wu Tu explained: "Those who worship in Huaqing Sect like Zhu Yue are outer disciples. Huaqing Sect has a very strict assessment system, which is held every three years. If you fail the assessment, you have to leave Huaqing Sect. However, there is another way, which is to work for Huaqing Sect and be called an agent outside."

"If the agent performs well, there is a possibility of becoming a disciple again."

Li Rui nodded.

Translated, it means temporary workers who have the opportunity to become regular employees in the future.

Wu Tu continued:

"This time, Kong Xiannian is responsible for arresting the defecting Huaqing Sect disciples, and the other person is responsible for searching for evidence of the Ghost Cult."

"I am working for Liu Xingshi."

Li Rui suddenly realized.

Wu Tu: "Brother Li, we are not afraid of shadows, nor do we need to be afraid of Zhao Wei and the Kong surname. If anything happens, you can go to Deputy Captain Zhang."

Li Rui: "Thank you for reminding me, brother."

Wu Tu told him a lot about the Tiandi League, and he was still not satisfied for a full hour.

Li Rui walked out of the gambling house that Wu Tu was in charge of.

He went straight back to Tianyi Hall.

Tianyi Hall was still as deserted as ever.

Occasionally, one or two disciples from the Chuanfa Hall came to receive the copies of the exercises. Zhou Shulin and Liang He were enough to handle these things.

"Hall Master."

Zhou Shulin stood up and saluted when he saw Li Rui appear.

Li Rui waved his hand.

"You continue."

There are only three people in Tianyi Hall, one of whom is a super-connected person. If Zhou Shulin and Liang He leave, then he, the hall master, will have to register in person.

So Li Rui asked about their well-being.

This touched the two young men who were not very experienced in the world.

They drank several times.

Zhou Shulin and Liang He just felt that their current hall master was a considerate brother. After getting drunk, they said a lot from the heart.

Li Rui wrote down everything.

Maybe it will be useful in the future.

Of course, it is best if there is no chance to use it.

The most taboo thing in the underworld is to talk about deep things with people you just met. He did this naturally to control the only two laborers in Tianyi Hall.

Li Rui will not take the initiative to harm others, but he also knows the principle of keeping a hand.

People's hearts are separated by their stomachs, who can tell for sure.

Li Rui returned to his single "office" in Tianyi Hall.

Just when he picked up the "Shangshan Daojing" that he had not finished reading yesterday, Liu Tong knocked on the door for the first time.

"Liu Tong, what's the matter?"

Li Rui looked at Liu Tong with concern.

For people with connections, the best thing to do is to make as many good connections as possible, which may bring unexpected benefits.

It doesn't matter whether you show up or not.

It's just the concern of an uncle for his nephew.

After not seeing each other for a month, Liu Tong still looked like a young man with kidney deficiency. He laughed and said, "Master, my brother-in-law asked me to work in the Wenwu Hall. The transfer order will come down in a few days. I want to invite Master Li and the two brothers to get together."

Li Rui was not too surprised.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that it is only a matter of time for Liu Tong to leave Tianyi Hall.

"Okay, it's better to do it on the first day than to choose a day. How about tonight?"

"Okay."

Liu Tong agreed immediately.

In the evening.

Huayelou.

"Our old Li has also made progress. He has come to Huayelou twice in a row."

Looking at the familiar room and the familiar round girl.

Li Rui was moved.

It seems that he still doesn't know enough about the feudal and decadent culture. He lives and learns.

There is a beautiful woman sitting next to Zhou Shulin. His face is flushed and he covers his crotch.

As for Liang He.

He still has to be on duty, so he can only regretfully miss this free meal tonight.

Liu Tong is an old hand in the world of romance. He feels more comfortable coming to Huayelou than going home. Most of the women in the building know Liu Tong. When he goes upstairs, at least more than ten courtesans greet him familiarly.

Zhou Shulin was envious.

They are all relatives, but the treatment is simply different.

Liu Tong raised his glass: "Thank you for the support of the hall master and Brother Zhou during this period. Brother Liang is not here, so I will remember it for him and return it another day. I will go to the Wenwu Hall to work tomorrow. It's all my brother-in-law's idea, but our friendship is still there."

"I'm sorry, I said too much. I'll drink this glass of wine first, you can do whatever you want."

Before he finished speaking.

He raised his head and drank the wine in the glass.

Although the alcohol content of this ancient wine is not high, it has a lot of impurities. After a few glasses of wine, Liu Tong and Zhou Shulin were already seven points drunk.

"Brother Zhou, I was wrong before, please forgive me."

Zhou Shulin waved his hand with a red face: "These are all trivial matters, brother Liu, don't worry about it."

Li Rui listened quietly to the conversation between the two teenagers.

He shook his head secretly.

On the scene, Liu Tong seemed to be flattering Zhou Shulin all the time and was in a weak position, but in fact, everything was under Liu Tong's control.

Liu Tong wanted to go to the Wenwu Hall. According to the rules, he needed to send someone to come for the assessment. At this time, if Li Rui, Zhou Shulin, or Liang He made trouble.

In the end, he could get through.

In his brother-in-law's mind, he would definitely leave an image of incompetence.

Liu Tong is indeed very good at managing relationships.

You can also say that he is very cunning.

Li Rui did not feel disgusted by this. He could feel much more relaxed when dealing with such a smart person.

Of course, another reason was that Liu Tong's brother-in-law's surname was Zhang.

He had the same surname as Wu Tu's backer.

Since Zhao Wei was unreliable, he certainly needed to find a new backer in Tiandi League. The relationship with Wu Tu was far from enough.

He needed to have more contact with the deputy helmsman Zhang.

In a subtle way, he naturally became the deputy helmsman Zhang's share. When Zhao Wei really made trouble for him, there would be someone to help him.

Of course, this did not mean that Zhao Wei would definitely take action against him.

It was just that Li Rui had long been accustomed to preparing for a rainy day.

Liu Tong gradually became seven points drunk.

He waved his hand, and the several prostitutes beside him pushed him away tactfully. Zhou Shulin looked reluctant.

Liu Tong lowered his voice: "Master Li, Brother Zhou, we are all family, so I won't hide it.

I heard that our leader has made a breakthrough, and the status of the Tiandi Alliance will surely advance by leaps and bounds, and our status will also rise at that time.

Now that the Qinghe branch is just being built, it is a good time to occupy a position. When the leader really announces his strength to the world, it will be too late to grab it.

I really treat you as brothers, so I said this, but don't tell others."

Zhou Shulin's eyes widened and he nodded repeatedly.

Li Rui suddenly understood.

He suddenly understood why Zhu Ping, the head of a big family, would suddenly show goodwill to him. So this is the reason.
