Monument of Life and Death

   Chapter 1031 Checks and Balances

  Xiaolan seemed to understand what he wanted to say.

   "As the saying goes, those in the authorities are obsessed with bystanders," said Brother Jun, "I think about it carefully, it is indeed difficult for us to start from the inside to find the inner ghost."

   "You want us to help?" Yi Yao asked directly.

  Xiao Kong's brows trembled and he didn't speak, but he could see that he didn't agree with Brother Jun's idea.

   "That's what I meant," said Brother Jun. "It may be a little abrupt, but there is no way out."

   "Brother Jun," Xiao Kong finally couldn't hold it any longer, and whispered dissatisfiedly, "After all, he is an outsider, so it's too bad to trouble him like this..."

   "I think it's not bad," Xiaolan wanted to confront this little hole, "Uncle Jun is right."

   "This logic is valid," Yi Yao also said, "I just don't know... What does Brother Jun plan for me and Xiaolan to do?"

   "Actually it's nothing, I just ask you two to help me pay more attention," Brother Jun said, "Besides... I heard that Miss Xiaolan seems to have some special abilities..."

  Xiaolan's heart trembled heavily.

  It's over, this group of people also know that they can see what other people experience through their dreams.

   Is this thing already known to everyone?

   Will your plan fail?

   "Uh...my..."

   "I heard that you can unlock locks?" Brother Jun turned his head and gave Xiaolan a sly look.

   "Uh... ah?"

   So you heard about this ability?

   "Everyone here has heard of it," Brother Jun said, "Miss Xiaolan is a master lock picker. No matter how difficult the lock is, it will be like a toy in your hands."

   The smile on Xiaolan's face almost didn't look like a smile.

   I really don't know whether to be happy or sad.

   I am actually famous because of this.

   "Also...it's not that magical," Xiaolan could only say modestly, "I can only open some of the locks."

   "Oh? Is it like this?" Brother Jun was slightly surprised, "What type of lock is it?"

which type? Can this be said?

   "Specifically...Me too..." Xiaolan said stutteringly, "Uncle Jun, is this important?"

   "I want to ask you, maybe it has something to do with your ability to unlock locks." Brother Jun said.

   is related to unlocking?

   Xiaolan became curious.

  Xiaolan leaned forward, "Uncle, what's the matter? Tell me in detail."

   "Brother Jun," Xiao Kong suddenly stopped Brother Jun, with a dumb expression, "Are you going to…"

  Brother Jun pulled out a hand and waved at Xiao Kong, blocking his words.

"You should know that our people in Wugengtian are not so powerful as to be able to manipulate magic tools," said Brother Jun, "so, the magic tools in the hands of people of Wugengtian are actually just the same. Equivalent to our psychic power."

   Xiaolan heard about this for the first time, but she nodded calmly when she saw Yi Yao's face, of course she couldn't show any surprise, she could only nod her head confidently.

   "Almost every man's instruments are stored in a specific location..."

  Xiaolan gasped, "Don't you want me to steal everyone's magic weapon?"

   "What? Stealing a magic weapon?" Brother Jun was taken aback by this statement, "Of course not!"

   This time it was Xiaolan's turn to be embarrassed.

   Subconsciously, I thought of such an outrageous thing, what kind of life do I usually live.

   "He should just need your help to open that door," Yi Yao said, seeming to have understood, "Then...it's probably my job."

   "Yes," Brother Jun nodded gratefully, "I wonder if this plan is good?"

   "There's no problem..." Yi Yao still hesitated, "It's just... this is not a trivial matter, does Laoqiao allow us to do this?"

   "Although Tian Yuan didn't agree with him personally, it was basically a default," Brother Jun said, "So..."

"Uncle, you wait first," Xiaolan interrupted Brother Jun, "I didn't understand, after I opened the door, what is Uncle Yi's job? Why can he tell which one is through your magical instruments? A traitor?"

   All three men were a little surprised.

   "Ah... So Xiaolan doesn't know."

   "Because Yi Nian holds the internal information of everyone in the Nine Sects," Brother Jun said, "so only Yi Nian can judge whether there is any other situation with everyone's instruments."

   Another new message!

   "I've never heard of it," Xiaolan was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth, "I only know... Yi Nian is very powerful in legends, and then in reality..."

   "In reality, you don't use abilities, right?" Brother Jun said, "But have you ever thought about why Yi Nian is the boss of the Nine Schools?"

   Yi Yao quickly said a few words "I can't make it", but his self-humility is also to the point. It seems that everyone, including Yi Nian, has tacitly agreed to this.

   "Because...that legend?"

   "The legend is only part of the reason," said Brother Jun. "It's actually because the other eight factions need an extra force to balance them."

   Yi Yao shrugged, "It's serious."

"That's it," said Brother Jun, "if the eight factions do not hand over power to the other party to a certain extent, there will be a situation where there will be no leaders, and infighting will only bring internal friction. The only way to unite is for everyone to make concessions."

  Xiaolan felt that she suddenly understood many profound philosophies in the adult world.

   "Uncle Yi... he's amazing," Xiao Lan sucked in her saliva and looked at Yi Yao next to her, "You know everything."

"No," Yi Yao's self-deprecation this time was true, "Yinian never dared to say that he knew everything, and although theoretically all factions have to submit information, it is actually difficult to achieve in reality. First of all, We know very little about the Sanyan who escaped the world. In addition, Qiqiao has gradually cut off contact with other factions in recent years. Therefore... our information has not been updated for many years. It is only possible to maintain an understanding of the factions to a certain extent.”

   "But it's still better than ourselves," Brother Jun said, "Mr. Yi, please!"

   "Since you have said so, I would seem too clueless if I refuse," Yi Yao said, "I'll give it a try."

  Xiao Kong was so angry that he didn't want to speak.

   "That arsenal... do you carry it with you?" Xiaolan asked.

   Brother Jun and Yi Yao were amused by the word "arsenal". Yi Yao neatly sorted out Xiaolan's messy sweater and hat, and patiently said, "The arsenal in your mouth is on their Tianyuan Laoqiao."

   Thanks for the cute tip with a tail number of 9852!
