Welcoming Nie Xiaoli and the old man behind her into the Qianhu Office.
After a conversation, Liu Xin's surprise was beyond words.
Nie Xiaoli came to help him!
And the true identity of the old man behind Nie Xiaoli turned out to be the elder of the Beast Control Sect.
"Liu Qianhu, little old man Tian is the elder of the inner sect of the Beast Control Sect.
My sect leader asked me to come with the young lady to see if Liu Qianhu needs our help. "
"Miss?" Liu Xin glanced at Nie Xiaoli.
Nie Xiaoli's face turned red, and he said nervously:
"Master, this is what happened..."
Before Nie Xiaoli could speak, Liu Xin had already raised his hand to stop her.
"You don't need to explain these things to me."
As soon as she heard Liu Xin say such words, Nie Xiaoli became anxious.
She quickly explained:
"Master, that's what it is. I only found out in the past two days that the Horse Control Sect is a branch of the Beast Control Sect.
My father is actually a disciple of the Beast Control Sect.
I have asked my aunts, and it is indeed the case, but the Beast Control Sect is not a big sect to begin with.
If our affairs are involved, your coming may have a certain impact on the sect.
Moreover, in the Horse Control Sect, only my father is a true disciple of the Beast Control Sect. But now that my father is gone, other people in the Beast Control Sect can't speak. "
The little old man named Luo Long also helped and said:
"Don't blame Liu Qianhu.
It was also in the past two days that the sect master discovered my whereabouts for my young lady, and then came to recognize her as a relative.
And it also happened that my sect leader happened to be in the imperial capital in the past few days.
Although our Beast Control Sect is not a powerful sect, we still have our own intelligence channels in the imperial capital.
We know that Liu Qianhu is currently investigating Wang Zhongjie's case, so we thought that since you are the young lady's master, we should also give you a apprenticeship ceremony.
Of course, don’t refuse in a hurry. We in the Beast Control Sect don’t have other abilities, but we are quite good at controlling some insects and mice.
These bugs and rats don't have much fighting power despite their inability to fight.
But if used for intelligence gathering, it is definitely a first-rate good method. "
Liu Xin was silent for a moment and did not accept, but he did not refuse either.
Luo Long also knew that Liu Xin would definitely have doubts and would not ask them for help right away, so he said a few words and left on his own.
Nie Xiaoli stayed at Qianhu Station.
"Tell me in detail how you got involved with the Beast Control Sect?"
Liu Xin asked.
Nie Xiaoli then told the story about how she suddenly received the invitation and then went to Huaiying Pavilion to see Linghu Yu.
"Behind Huaiying Pavilion is actually a Jianghu sect, I didn't expect this."
"Uncle Linghu should be a good man. He didn't ask me to do anything, but gave me a lot of help."
"When you say help, you mean helping your aunts?"
"No no.
Uncle Linghu didn't give me any money, he just...he just told me some things about my father and my mother in the past.
Moreover, some of the things Uncle Linghu said were told to me by my parents when I was young, so I think what Uncle Linghu said should be true. "
"That's fine. Listening to your narration, this Linghuyu really treats you like his own nephew.
And to put it bluntly, you don't have any resources that he would like to use. "
Nie Xiaoli was shocked by her master's straightforward words and immediately showed an aggrieved look.
"Okay, you are such a brat, don't pretend to be like this in front of me.
In addition to giving some help to the master today, what else do you want to do? "
Nie Xiaoli immediately revealed her fox tail.
"Master, I want to practice with you.
Don't reject me in a hurry!
After all, I am also a child of a martial arts sect, and I also have some ability to protect myself. "
Liu Xin smiled and said:
"Your bones are indeed pretty good and your cultivation is okay, but where does your ability to protect yourself come from?"
Liu Xin opened the attribute panel as he spoke and took a careful look at Nie Xiaoli's attribute panel.
But if you don't know it, you will be shocked when you look at it. Meteor actually stayed on the spot in a daze.
[Name: Nie Xiaoli
Age: 17
Cultivation level: Early stage of Xiaocheng realm
Specialties: Beast Control
Root bone: 7
Physical strength: 6
Intelligence: 8
Comprehensive ability: 7
Qualification: Strange Pulse [Beast Heart]
Best Kung Fu: None
Evaluation: A natural talent for controlling animals, with a simple mind. 】
It turned out to be another strange pulse that Liu Xin had never seen or heard of.
Looking at the name of this strange pulse and the evaluation on the attribute panel, it is not difficult to judge that this strange pulse should be related to beast control.
Am I a natural beast-controlling genius, but I don’t know how to control beasts...
Liu Xin thought so in his heart.
"Master, master, what's wrong with you?"
Nie Xiaoli asked quickly when she saw Liu Xin was in a daze.
Liu Xin shook his head and said it was okay.
"Since the master of the Beast Control Sect regards you as his nephew and descendant, has he taught you some beast control skills?"
Nie Xiaoli thought for a while and said:
"Uncle Linghu did give me a set of exercises, but he told me not to tell others."
Liu Xin couldn't help but laugh:
"Then why did you tell me?"
Nie Xiaoli said seriously:
"Because you are my master. My father said that once you are a master, you will always be a father!"
After saying this, Nie Xiaoli's face showed a little panic. Perhaps he was already worried about whether his master would ask her for this technique.
Liu Xin immediately consoled him:
"Don't worry. Since your uncle Linghu asked you not to reveal this skill, then don't tell anyone else."
Seeing that Liu Xin had no intention of asking for this skill, Nie Xiaoli immediately felt at ease.
"Master, Uncle Linghu and the others can be considered a help. If you really need it, don't be polite."
Liu Xin shook his head and said with a smile:
"Master, there are some things that they can't help with.
Also, if you want to follow me, don’t rush it.
The things the master has done recently are really too dangerous.
I'll teach you again after the master has finished his work for a while.
By the way, I still have some time today, so why don’t I teach you how to run Little Zhou Tian.
I happen to have a technique here that is suitable for women to practice. Let me first see how the technique you practiced before is. If the master's technique is better, then you can practice it with this new technique. "
Nie Xiaoli immediately showed joy and nodded repeatedly.
Soon after Nie Xiaoli ran the exercises she had practiced, Liu Xin had already judged that the set of exercises he had mastered should be better.
But this is normal. The set of exercises that Liu Xin knows that are suitable for women are just one step away from being called top-notch exercises.
What Nie Xiaoli practiced was just the ordinary skills of Yuma Sect. Even if it was placed in the world, it could only be classified as ordinary and inferior.
It took almost half an hour. Liu Xin helped Nie Xiaoli successfully get started with the new exercises.
After that, I just continued to practice diligently.
Xiaochengjing is actually a process of hard work and diligence.
This realm is different from the Dacheng realm. As long as the six meridians are opened, the small Zhoutian can continuously nourish the internal force. When the internal force develops to a certain level, you can try to open the Rendu and Du meridians.
Nie Xiaoli's talent is not very bad, at least it is considered to be a superior talent among women.
It's just that her cultivation time was a little later, and it would take at least two or three years to polish and accumulate the level of Xiaocheng.
After sending Nie Xiaoli away, Liu Xin also started to plan his own affairs.
Senior Brother Cheng should be fine for the time being.
During the communication with Dai De'an, the other party had already given enough hints.
The invitation given by the Duke of Qin's mansion was tonight, and there was still a little time. He needed to find Kou Gang's whereabouts as soon as possible.
Fortunately, these days, his Qianhu Office has recruited many capable personnel.
They called for Guo Yong and Liu Fu, gave them some instructions, and then they took their orders.
Liu Xin left Qianhusuo alone.
He's going to find some help.
Xuesheng and Liu Li have already left the imperial capital, but as a good brother, Xuesheng gave Liu Xing a way to contact the evil sect before leaving.
In order to supervise the confrontation between the Holy Sect and Emperor Wu City, many evil sects were mobilized in the imperial capital. These people cannot come and go as freely as Xuesheng.
Otherwise, it will be easy for others to discover clues to your identity.
Each of them has their own identity. Enter the imperial capital through reasonable and appropriate channels.
But if the struggle between the Holy Sect and Emperor Wu City in the imperial capital ends, and they all evacuate the imperial capital together, then their identities will be exposed too easily.
Therefore, they actually had their own plans before entering the imperial capital, and they would stay in the imperial capital for different lengths of time.
The longest ones will even stay in the imperial capital for another year or two.
For a short period of time, they may have been evacuated in the past few days, but at least half of the remaining personnel are still stranded in the imperial capital.
This is why Xuesheng gave Liu Xin the contact information of the evil sect.
Because he has already felt that the storm is coming in the imperial capital, these powers are the backup for Liu Xin.
Liu Xin found a contact point for the evil sect through the method left by Xuesheng.
He didn't see anyone here. This was a dilapidated earth temple. There were layers of spider kings in the temple, and the dust was an inch thick.
Liu Xin left no trace here, but left a secret message somewhere in the temple according to the method.
He believes in the evil sect, and the case will soon follow the secret letter's requirements to find Kou Gang's whereabouts.
When searching for Wang Zhongjie before, Liu Xin did not use the power of the evil sect.
That's because Wang Zhongjie's case actually doesn't have much to do with Liu Xin himself. Liu Xin was just doing business at most.
And now Kou Gang is a very key figure to Liu Xin.
Senior Brother Cheng took good care of him when he first came to the Imperial Capital. He has been guiding Liu Xin to grow rapidly.
Liu Xin couldn't let anything happen to Senior Brother Cheng.
Moreover, Liu Xin could also imagine the reason why Senior Brother Cheng accidentally killed Zhang Sunhe.
After leaving the ruined temple, Liu Xin briefly fell into confusion in the huge imperial capital.
In this huge city, without Senior Brother Cheng, there seems to be no place for him to stay.
Liu Xin walked aimlessly in the imperial capital city and came to the outer city without knowing it.
He has Jin Yiwei's waist card and can come and go freely.
The oppressive atmosphere in the outer city is different from that in the inner city.
Although the people also felt the sense of oppression that something might happen at any time.
But there are still a large number of people who are still busy with their own affairs.
This is the case for the common people, especially the people at the lowest level. They only worry about their own livelihood.
As for other things, they can't control it, and they don't want to.
While Liu Xin was walking blindly, a cry of surprise suddenly came from the street in front of him.
Looking up willingly, he happened to see a burly man wearing loose clothing running away in a hurry.
Not far behind him were several Dongchang fans wearing Dongchang uniforms.
I saw a few crossbow arrows coming through the air. The burly man had extraordinary skills, and an iron plate bridge deeply dodged these crossbow arrows.
Although the evasion was relatively close, it took some time after all, and Dongchang Fanzi behind him had already caught up.
Four Dongchang fans in soap uniforms surrounded the burly man.
This burly man seemed a little stretched under the siege of four people.
His own cultivation level may be more than this, but he was tortured in prison, and his food was not good, and his body was already weak.
If he hadn't been in prison for a short time and still had some basic skills, he would never have been able to escape for so long without being caught.
But now it seems that it is only a matter of time before he is recaptured and returned to prison.
But he doesn't want to go back to prison. Going back to prison is a life worse than death.
So he started working hard.
Because Liu Xin was doing his own business, he didn't wear the official uniform of Jinyi Wei Qianhu. Even if he was close, he could still be a bystander.
He couldn't interfere in everything, so he just watched quietly.
Of course he will take action if necessary, but until then he will just wait and see.
Suddenly, several more crossbow arrows shot through the air.
But this time the direction of the crossbow attack turned out to be those Dongchang fans.
Two of them were caught off guard and were hit by crossbow arrows. One of them hit a critical point and fell to the ground.
Another person was shot in the shoulder.
After one round of crossbow arrows, there was another round. The remaining two Dongchang fans hurriedly dodged and retreated. The man with the heavy sword on his shoulder was hit by two arrows in a row and fell to the ground.
Liu Xin squinted and looked in the direction where the crossbow arrows were flying, and saw four or five people with their faces covered on a roof, holding crossbows.
After those people fired two rounds of crossbows, they prepared to retreat.
Liu Xin made a quick decision and opened the attribute panel to take a look at one of the assassins.

Evaluation: An ordinary dead soldier of Du Fu. 】
He turned out to be a dead soldier. Which master named Du would be in the Du Mansion?
Death warriors cannot be cultivated by a small family.
Because if you want to train a dead warrior, you can't just recruit some warriors and brainwash them.
Only those big families have their own vassal forces. These vassals cannot survive without the main family, so they are loyal to the main family.
Among these loyal people, a group must be selected and trained and brainwashed from an early age to meet the basic conditions of a dead soldier.
From the attribute panel, it can be concluded that these dead soldiers should belong to the Du family.
Liu Xin's mind immediately jumped out to several high-ranking officials with the surname Du who were above the third rank.
Among them, Du Weizhong was the first name that jumped out.
Because he is the highest-ranking bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion and the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, and he is also the head of the Du family, a wealthy family in Zhejiang.
It is not difficult to train dead soldiers with the ability of the Du family.
Among the officials of the third rank and above in the court, only two or three officials with the surname Du have this ability.
But only the Du family in Zhejiang can be 100% confirmed to have this ability.
But if it were him, one of the dignified bachelors of the Six Pavilions and the pinnacle figure of the civil service group, why would he do such a thing?
Sending out the family's dead warriors just to save an ordinary prisoner who just escaped from prison?
It would be a bit shameful to do so.
Liu Xin shook his head and watched the big man flee in a hurry. He did not interfere in this matter.
Because he found that this matter had become more and more complicated.
Even the bachelors of Wenyuan Pavilion may be involved in this matter.
The water in the Imperial Capital is really getting turbid.
Liu Xin has already made a judgment in his heart, and this information can be kept. If he fails to catch Kou Gang, then maybe he can keep it as a bargaining chip to exchange for Senior Brother Cheng.
But the more troublesome thing about this matter is that he can't explain how he confirmed that those people were dead soldiers of the Du family.
He has the attribute panel, an artifact, but he cannot directly declare it. Others will not believe his words, after all, they are too fantasy.
He began to make plans in his mind, but his eyes were still focused on the front. Dongchang Fanzi had already arrived to assist him and rescued the two colleagues who fell to the ground. Looking at their angry and angry expressions, it was not difficult to judge that those two people were in danger. few.
Liu Xin walked aimlessly while making crazy calculations in his mind.
The first thing now is to catch Kou Gang.
Changsun He was not from Kou Gang. This was the clearest thing Dai De'an told him.
Therefore, if Kou Gang recants his confession, it will be a huge trouble for Senior Brother Cheng.
Therefore, Kou Gang must be firmly in their own hands. To put it more bluntly, this person must be in Liu Xin's own hands.
And as a Qianhu, he has this right!
Suddenly, Liu Xin thought of a person he had not contacted for some days.
Dongchang was formerly Dongxiang.
He must have been quite busy recently. The arrest of Wang Zhongjie was mostly on Dongchang's head.
And he couldn't guarantee whether Yuan Dongxiang would help him. He had never been able to see this person clearly.
I always feel like there is a layer of mist surrounding this person.
While he was thinking, he suddenly heard someone calling his name.
"Liu Qianhu!"
Liu Xin turned around and saw a very familiar face, but he definitely didn't recognize him.
The person came over in two or three steps, very fast, and it felt like he was shrinking from the ground.
Master!
Liu Xin immediately opened his attribute panel.
