Zhu Liuxiang looked at Zhou Shixun and said with a confused look.
"Oh, there is a girl beside him, called Xiaosi? She is in her twenties and has strong martial arts skills?"
"That's right, that girl should be close to reaching the ninth level, not much worse than my bad disciple Qingxuan."
Zhou Shixun shook his head after hearing this. He seemed to have guessed something, but at the moment he had no confirmation and dared not say anything.
"Okay, Taoist Priest, it's getting late, so you should go back and rest early."
Zhu Liuxiang saluted Zhou Shixun and disappeared into the night.
After Zhu Liuxiang left, Eunuch Wei walked over immediately.
"Your Majesty, do you doubt..."
"Hmph, as long as Shi Ji can do such a heartless thing, even if he escapes to the ends of the earth, I, Zhou Shixun, will have his menstruation and skin peeled off."
After saying that, a warm picture flashed in Zhou Shixun's mind.
But then, his eyes turned cold.
"Old Wei, here's the order, go all out to arrest the Tongtian cult members. Anyone with the sun tattoo on the back of their neck will be arrested."
Eunuch Wei took the order and left.
Zhou Shixun sat blankly in the imperial study room alone, muttering a few times in a daze: "Xiaosi...Xiaosi."
And now on the road from Qingyun City to Andu City.
A fast horse was dragging a carriage and was galloping towards the city of Andu.
Xiao Si in the carriage looked at Chi Yanfei and said, "Sir, do we have to escape?"
"Haha, if nothing can be done, then look for an opportunity elsewhere."
After speaking, Chi Yanfei touched Xiaosi's head: "You should sleep for a while. The journey is long and we still need to travel for a few days."
"Master, you are so kind to Xiaosi!" After Xiaosi said this, he lay down in the carriage and fell asleep.
Chi Yanfei looked at the girl in front of him and felt something unspeakable in his heart.
After a long time, a sentence came out of the corner of his mouth: "Haha, you have grown up in the blink of an eye!"
After saying that, he opened the curtains and stared blankly at the dark night sky outside, feeling an indescribable desolation.
It was not until eight days later that a carriage entered the city of Andu in a dusty atmosphere.
The carriage went straight into an alley.
At the entrance of the alley, Chi Yanfei and Xiao Si stepped out of the carriage, took out a huge silver coin and handed it to the driver.
The two of them walked towards the alley along the route engraved with the moon sign.
The two of them walked to a house, and Xiaosi stepped forward and knocked on the door of the house.
"Da da da."
After a while, the door opened, and a man who looked like a servant came out holding a lantern.
Immediately afterwards, they welcomed the two people inside.
Inside the house, after receiving the news, a figure came to Chi Yanfei covered in dust.
"The leader of the Andu branch, Feng Xiuyuan, met the leader and the fourth girl."
"Okay, let's get up and find a room for Xiaosi to rest first."
Feng Xiuyuan stood up quickly, summoned a female congregant, and led Xiao Si towards the side room.
And he stood in front of Chi Yanfei with a respectful expression.
"Master Feng, you have worked hard, sit down!"
Chi Yanfei waved to Feng Xiuyuan and said with a smile on his face.
Feng Xiu saw the situation and immediately sat down under Chi Yanfei.
"Tell me about the situation in Andu."
"Back to the leader, there are currently more than 3,000 followers in Andu, all of whom are highly skilled in martial arts."
"The previous Tang family has been destroyed, and now a new Shi family has emerged. The head of the family is named Shi Qingshan, and it seems to have some relationship with Qingyun's Chu Chen."
"Currently, you and the city lord Mu Zheng have a monopoly on the entire refined salt business in Andu."
Chi Yanfei laughed after hearing this.
I thought it was this Chu Chen again, how come I could have something to do with him wherever I went.
However, this man named Shi Qingshan was related to Mu Zheng, so if he were to be touched, people like himself would inevitably be exposed.
Even if Xiao Si is very skilled, who can say for sure that there are no masters around Mu Zheng.
"Okay, let's take a look first. In the days to come, brothers should not act rashly. Then the Zhou family may take action against the brothers."
After Chi Yanfei saw Zhou Shixun coming to Mashan Village, he knew that he couldn't hide his coming to Daxia.
Although he, Zhou Shixun, could not find himself for the time being, it was still possible for him to cause trouble for his followers.
But for him, it would be good if he could remind these people.
Feng Xiuyuan saluted Chiyan Fei, summoned one person, and then gave the order.
"Okay, it's getting late, I have to go and rest."
"Here comes the leader!" Feng Xiuyuan heard that and quickly led the leader into a main room.
Then he stepped out and ordered the two of them to guard the door at all times.
He turned around and walked towards the outside of the house.
The next day, Feng Xiuyuan carried a few boxes of gifts and headed towards the house with the Shifu engraved on it.
"Hey, Brother Feng, how can I tell you that the magpies were chirping early this morning? It turns out it was my Brother Feng who came here."
The servants in the house led Feng Xiuyuan to Shi Qingshan.
Shi Qingshan greeted him warmly.
"Brother Shi, I have nothing to do today, so please don't blame me for coming here to bother you."
"Haha, Brother Feng is out. Come on, prepare a banquet. We will not return until we get drunk today."
Shi Qingshan was polite and gave instructions to the servants behind him.
"Brother Shi is polite, but I would be disrespectful to you."
Feng Xiuyuan handed the gift to the servant and followed Shi Qingshan to sit down.
After a while, the two started chatting like old friends.
Afterwards, the servants served a table full of food and wine.
"Brother Shi, with so much food and wine, wouldn't it be a bit of a waste for you and me?"
Then he said: "I heard that brother Shi has a very good personal relationship with the Lord of Namu City, why not introduce him to me."
Feng Xiuyuan said enthusiastically, but his hands kept moving.
He poured wine for Shi Qingshan.
"Haha, City Master Mu is very busy at the moment. I'm afraid he will disappoint Brother Feng today."
"Oh, the Lord City Lord is really a millionaire. He is a good City Lord of Andu."
Feng Xiuyuan laughed, raised his glass, and drank it with Qingshan in one gulp as he spoke.
After a few glasses of wine, he spoke again: "This city of Andu is stable and prosperous, and the city lord is really dedicated to his duties."
"Haha, it's nothing. I heard that the Eighth Prince may be coming to Andu City in the near future. The Lord of the City will be busy welcoming him."
Shi Qingshan was a little confused by the morning drink, and he said straightforwardly.
After hearing this, Feng Xiuyuan pretended to be nervous: "What, the Eighth Prince is coming. That is a big event. We, the merchants, have all received the emperor's favor, so we have to go and greet him when the time comes."
After saying that, Feng Xiuyuan showed an imperceptible smile on his face.
But Zhou Heng, who was far away in the capital, suddenly trembled: "Hey, is my sworn brother talking about me again?"
Feng Xiuyuan poured another glass of wine for Qingshan at that time: "Brother Shi, you are on good terms with City Master Mu. Can you ask me for the specific date, so that we can wait and admire the eighth prince's grace?"
