Taiping Inn

It is said that a scholar knows everything in the world without leaving home, but this is just an exaggeration. But Li Daoxu has actually done this. Qingluanwei is known for investigating the world. To achieve this, it does not depend on how many masters there are in Qingluanwei, but on the many informants of Qingluanwei, just like a big network, covering the world. Not only does it require huge financial resources, but it also relies on the government offices and post stations in various places of the court to lay out secret points. After years of operation, it can have such a scene. Only the court at its peak could have such a hand. Even the Taiping Sect that flourished everywhere and the Tingfeng Tower that was later separated from Qingluanwei were slightly inferior. Today's Qingluanwei is not so much in the hands of the court as it is directly under the command of Li Daoxu.

In addition, there is the Tianji Hall of the upper three halls of Qingwei Sect. The so-called "Tianji" two words, as the name suggests, also have similar functions. Not to mention Qingwei Sect, there are also hidden players ambushed by Qingwei Sect in other sects.

Li Xuandu knew this, but he didn't expect that what Li Daoxu knew was far beyond his imagination. Facing Li Daoxu's question, Li Xuandu could only answer: "Master, it was Zhang Luanshan who wrote to me and asked me to save Zhou Tingchao's family."

Li Daoxu looked at Li Xuandu and said slowly: "Let alone your relationship with Zhang Luanshan, the relationship between Zhang Luanshan and the Female Sect, even the relationship between Zhang Luanshan and the court, how he fell into the realm back then, all of these are known to the master. The master knows what you know, and the master also knows what you don't know. Don't think that there is anything that can be hidden from the master."

Li Xuandu took a deep breath and said: "Since the master knows everything, why do you still insist on doing it? Why do you let Li Yuanying and Gu Yusheng and others do whatever they want?"

"Insist on doing it?" Li Daoxu narrowed his eyes and said: "Li Xuandu, what qualifications do you have to comment on what the master has done? How did you come to the conclusion that he insisted on doing it?"

Li Xuandu said calmly: "What I see, What you hear is what you feel in your heart. "

Li Daoxu looked at Li Xuandu deeply: "I have read what you wrote just now. I will not approve you now, nor will I deny you. I also believed your explanation just now, and thought that you were just a little luckier than others. I only asked you one last question, why did those people give you the 'Five Qi Pill'?"

Li Xuandu did not answer directly this time, but asked back: "Master, you just let me stand in your position, so I dare to let you stand in my position now. If you were Li Xuandu, without the 'Five Qi Pill' to restore your realm, how likely would you be to enter this Eight Scenery Courtyard?"

"It's good to admit it." Li Daoxu said calmly: "Go find your Miss Qin first, and then you will watch in the back hall, and I will ask you again later."

Li Xuandu responded, slowly left the Jingxin Hall, and went to find Qin Su.

Just when Li Daoxu was causing the celestial phenomena to change with his murderous intention, Zhang Haishi stopped. After standing there and thinking for a moment, he turned around and strode towards the Eight Scenery Courtyard. As for Li Rushou and others, they were already full of fear.

Arriving at the gate of the Eight Scenery Courtyard, Zhang Haishi waved his robe sleeves, signaling Lu Yanbing to leave, and then walked into the courtyard alone, saying loudly: "Disciple Zhang Haishi wants to see you!"

At this time, only Li Daoxu was left in the Jingxin Hall, and he said: "Come in, both of you."

The voice was not loud, but it was clearly heard by the two. In addition to Zhang Haishi, there was another person, Li Rushi.

Zhang Haishi and Li Rushi soon appeared outside the Jingxin Hall and bowed deeply to Li Daoxu who was sitting alone in the hall.

Li Daoxu looked at the two of them: "Master Li, Second Master, you are both old men of Qingwei Sect, you have no shortage of experience and prestige, so there is no need to be so formal, just come in and talk."

"Yes." The two of them answered together and walked into the Jingxin Hall side by side.

Then their eyes fell on the booklet in Li Daoxu's hand. Both of them were experienced people, and they immediately understood that it must be this booklet that made the old sect master so angry, but without seeing Li Xuandu and Qin Su, the two of them were a little unsure of the old sect master's attitude.

Zhang Haishi looked at the booklet in Li Daoxu's hand, hesitated for a moment, and asked softly: "May I ask the old sect master, what is written in this booklet?"

Li Daoxu asked: "Second Master, you mean that you have no idea what Li Xuan will do in advance, right?"

Zhang Haishi said calmly: "I know it, and I don't know it either."

Li Daoxu said: "I understand the answer."

"Yes." Zhang Haishi responded and said: "I know that I do know that the fourth junior brother wants to advise the old sect master, and I don't know that I don't know. What did he write in this booklet? "

Li Daoxu did not answer, but Li Rushi took over: "Second Master, everyone in the sect knows that you have a close relationship with the Fourth Master. Now that the Fourth Master has written this treasonous thing, who would believe you if you say you don't know anything? To put it bluntly, whether the Fourth Master is right or wrong, he dares to take responsibility for his actions. On the contrary, you, as a senior brother, are not even as good as him?"

Zhang Haishi suddenly looked at Li Rushi. Li Rushi relied on the presence of the old sect master and was not afraid of him. He looked at him without showing any weakness.

Li Daoxu looked at this scene coldly and asked: "Second Master, why don't you answer the question of Li Tangzhu?"

Zhang Haishi looked at Li Daoxu again and said: "Replying to the old sect master, Li Tangzhu's words are not worth refuting. Everything must be based on evidence. Just based on Li Tangzhu's words, he wants to convict me and my fourth junior brother. It is against the sect rules. "

"Old Sect Master!" Li Rushi immediately bowed to Li Daoxu and said, "This matter is very strange. Now that the Third Master is not in the sect, there is no one to lead the Tiangang Hall. I beg the old Sect Master to allow me to take charge of the Tiangang Hall and find out the person behind the scenes."

This means that he will take real action. With this excuse, as long as Li Daoxu nods, Li Rushi can openly carry out large-scale implicated activities, killing a lot of people in Qingwei Sect, and after eliminating the Fourth Master's party, he will also eliminate the Second Master's party.

However, Li Daoxu did not agree immediately, but just looked at Zhang Haishi silently.

Zhang Haishi's years of concentration are better than Li Xuandu, he is not frightened, and his face is as calm as a lake.

Li Daoxu, who could not see any clues from Zhang Haishi, glanced at Li Rushi: "I have set the rules, I must abide by them, and everything must be done according to the rules."

Li Rushi did not dare to add unnecessary details, and responded respectfully.

Zhang Haishi still looked at Li Daoxu, motionless.

Li Daoxu did not look at him, but looked outside the Jingxin Hall. The dark clouds in the sky still did not dissipate, just like the haze in his heart.

After a while, Li Daoxu slowly retracted his gaze, and slowly moved to Zhang Haishi in front of him, and finally looked at Li Rushi, raised the book in his hand, and asked: "Master Li, in your opinion, how should this matter be handled?"

Li Rushi was happy in his heart, but he did not show it on his face. He said in a deep voice: "Replying to the old sect master, there is no internal traitor to attract external thieves. Today's incident is unprecedented in our Qingwei Sect, and it cannot be taken lightly. Just now, the old sect master said to act according to the sect rules, so before there is evidence, the second gentleman is naturally innocent. But the fourth gentleman is different, and he must be arrested immediately. Interrogation, people who have contact with Mr. Four on weekdays must also be questioned one by one, and must be thoroughly investigated. "

Li Daoxu asked: "This matter is of great importance, who will investigate it?"

Li Rushi wanted to continue to recommend himself, but when he thought of the snag just now, he didn't dare to speak rashly, and could only say: "Everything is decided by the old sect master."

Li Daoxu said calmly: "Mr. Er is the deputy sect master. When the sect master is away, the deputy sect master will take the responsibility of the sect master. Of course, Mr. Er is responsible for this matter. "

Zhang Haishi and Li Rushi were both stunned. They didn't expect Li Daoxu to say such a thing.

After a while, Zhang Haishi lowered his head and responded: "I will follow the order of the old sect master. May I ask the old sect master, where is the fourth junior brother now?"

Li Daoxu stared at him: "Tomorrow, I will hand him over to you."

When the voice fell, a wind suddenly rose, and the sky above Penglai Island suddenly darkened.

The sky, which was already very dark, seemed to be splashed with a basin of thick ink, without a single ray of light. After a moment, countless raindrops poured down from the sky, as if to cover the entire world in a dense rain curtain.

What a heavy rain.
