"You all have worked tirelessly and come thousands of miles away to help me. I would like a glass of water and wine from Zhou to express my gratitude. Please drink!"
"You are polite when you look at things. The countries in the Eastern Continent are united and share the same hatred when encountering foreign troubles. Please!"
"We share weal and woe, so we should lend a helping hand. Please drink!"
"please!"
The banquet hall was full of harmony, and the guests and hosts were having a great time. The wine tables on both sides of the main table were occupied by various forces. The host arranged a free-spirited Taoist cultivator to accompany each table to persuade guests and create a harmonious atmosphere.
Zhou Zhi took the initiative to toast and chat with Guanzhu Zhang, as if all the grievances and grudges from back then had been poured into the wine glass, completely wiped out.
In fact, it is not the case. Being able to sit at the same table and drink together means that we can work together temporarily. When the foreign troubles are eliminated, we will continue to do whatever we want. We will smile and call our "fellow Taoists" to stab us in the dark when we find the opportunity. Be soft-handed.
Unless the two forces sit down and formulate new rules for how they get along.
It was already the beginning of the Haichu period when the banquet was over, and Zhou Fu began to invite several people to the teahouse.
While the tea was brewing, Zhang Wenfeng took a stack of files compiled from the Great Heavenly Master and flipped through them page by page. It contained important information from the interrogation of two living prisoners during the day.
As expected, three groups of overseas rogue cultivators joined in, and those who were crippled by them were two groups of guys, one new and one old, who were eager to take advantage of their merits, in order to ambush Da'an's forces and make Da'an surrender.
There are currently as many as seventeen fourth-level masters of thieves cultivating on the island. The captives confessed each person's characteristics, names, special skills, etc., as well as minor conflicts between the various forces.
"Haha, this confession file is so timely. We must quickly let other fellow Taoists in Da Ying know so that we can deal with those guys in the future. Guanzhu Zhang and the great ancient heavenly master deserve the most great credit and no good deeds."
Zhou Zhi flipped through the files in his hand and couldn't help but cheer loudly, the flame pattern on his forehead fluttering.
The Wu Clan lost a fourth-level master in the hands of overseas thieves. This time he and the newly promoted fourth-level Chu Qing'er came to reinforce him, also for revenge, leaving only the mountain god Mulihua at home to guard him.

The Great Heavenly Master laughed off Zhou Zhi's sarcastic words, whether it was intentional or unintentional, and placed Guanzhu Zhang in front of him. He was so convinced that the credit belonged to the entire Da'an Daolu Academy and had nothing to do with the Wu clan. .
He smiled and said: "Zhou Guanshi has used a proper method to pass the news to Daying Academy this afternoon." Then he looked at Monk Fayuan who was quietly looking through the files in his hand and said: "Mr. It’s strange, he is good at Tianyan calculations, he is ruthless and unscrupulous, and he has to ask Master Fayuan to take the trouble to find his flaws.”
Fa Yuan raised his head and smiled and replied: "The poor monk is not good at fighting, so he tried his best to use the 'Law of Cause and Effect' to interfere with Almsgiver Xue's calculations. He worked together with several other colleagues to fight him in a targeted manner, and he was still somewhat confident. "
With his temperament, this kind of statement is very satisfying.
Zhang Wenfeng looked up at the sky and rolled his eyes at the monk opposite.
You can pretend to be brave, but you are too modest to fight in front of him. Back then, I don’t know who was so crazy that he almost became possessed when fighting.
Fa Yuan smiled and faced each other.
Zhou Fushi has arranged for spies to spread the news in the Daying area this afternoon. He will use slow fire to brew tea slowly to alienate overseas traitors. It will definitely have an effect. He will gradually increase the heat. These top secret things should not be known to too many people.
Looking at Zhou Zhi who was drinking tea, he smiled and said: "The Wu Clan is unique in soul arts. I wonder if Elder Zhou would be interested in interrogating the two prisoners again? I'm worried that today's haste will not allow the interrogation to be detailed and important information will be omitted."
Zhou Zhi smiled and agreed without any shirk.
After drinking tea, he took the file and left.
Zhou Fushi sent the Great Ancient Heavenly Master, Monk Fayuan, and Zhang Guanzhu out of the Taoist Palace Branch, and then returned to accompany Zhou Zhi and Chu Qing'er to interrogate two prisoners who had endured hardships and had no choice but to die.
Ghost cultivation is different from ghosts. Ghost cultivation is when humans or monsters practice skills to become neither human nor ghost. They can walk in the human world and will not be rejected and suppressed by heaven. However, they are more restrained in the face of fire and thunder monks.
Zhou Zhi is gearing up, how can he turn the prisoner into a ghost without squeezing out every last drop of oil and water from the prisoner?
After chatting with the Great Celestial Master and the monk, Zhang Wenfeng agreed to invite Fayuan for tea tomorrow and walked into the guest house to go back to their residences. It was too late today and the Great Celestial Master needed to rest and recuperate.
In the next few days, everything was calm on Dayi's territory, and the overseas thieves disappeared.
Zhang Wenfeng goes to the Daogong Branch every day. Fa Yuan and Bai Lichun, the Daogong Divination Master, and the Witch Clan Divination Master are in the same room doing calculations over the Kanyu map. When they rarely have time to spare, everyone else When something is busy, he has to take care of it, so that he can recharge his energy and have more leisure. Occasionally he can go to the library to read books.
Two fourth-level masters sent by Daqiang arrived with more than 20 people.
Only the westernmost Qianxi Island did not send reinforcements.
That afternoon, with the sun shining slantingly, Zhang Guanzhu stepped into the guest house and heard the chirping sounds of Xiao Ni'er coming out of the pond and chatting lively with the donkey.
Xiao Ni'er waggled his tail and arrived in front of the viewer. A bunch of various storage utensils appeared in his hand like a treasure, such as rings, gourds, jade pendants, small swords, etc. He smiled and said: "Master, let's divide these treasures. , put it in my hands. I have been thinking about running away with the treasure all day long, and I have no time to practice. Throughout the afternoon, Lu Zijin and I erased all the marks on all the dozens of collected treasures. The shiny treasures looked at Greedy."
Zhang Wenfeng said with a smile: "You and Lu Zijin will discuss the division, and each will get what he needs. Don't care if you get more or less." He then threatened: "If you dare to abscond, I will use your mother-in-law to pay for it."
Xiao Ni'er curled her lips angrily: "She didn't even have to pay the bill, she delivered it to her door by herself."
The treasure was so uninteresting and uninteresting that it ended up being tossed around in Xianlingguan's pot. It was all because of the prodigal lady in her family, who also sold her, and she suddenly lost interest. .
Zhang Wenfeng laughed loudly and said: "You are a maid who is determined to control your mother-in-law's heart. You are still on both ends, so why bother yourself?" Seeing that the little girl's face was covered with dark clouds and she was so sad that she was about to cry, he hurriedly comforted her: " Your mother-in-law said that if you don't live in Da'an in this life, she is the one who makes the money. Why did that silly boy Lezi just follow him to the wild Liuzhi River?"
The mist in the little girl's eyes instantly disappeared, she patted her little chest and shouted: "That's not bad, it scared me to death. Did the empress really say such cruel words? Master, you are not allowed to lie to children!"
Donkey nodded and testified: "That's pretty much what it means. I heard it too."
"Let's go, let's divide the treasure and divide the treasure. Lu Zijin, we are siblings and we will settle the accounts. Don't expect me to give you one more thing. Liuzhihe's family is not very well-off. I have to earn more points for my mother-in-law."
Xiao Ni'er's life has taken off, and her eyes are shining brightly.
Zhang Wenfeng hurriedly grabbed the little money fan who got into Qian's eyes: "Have you read the file I left for Luzi this afternoon?"
"Time will tell, is it more important than Bibao?"
"The treasure can be divided at any time in your pocket. If you don't have long legs, you can't run away. You have to hurry up and read the files. Get familiar with the opponent we face this time. Only then can we know ourselves and the enemy when we meet and fight in the future, and have a better chance of winning."
Zhang Wenfeng saw that the little guy was focused on dividing the spoils and was obviously absent-minded, so he took heavy medicine and said: "Last time, we failed to kill all the thieves. One fourth-level and six third-level thieves escaped, and our true identity was exposed. Next time we meet, they will definitely use targeted methods. If they rush into battle like that night, they will only fall into a trap and seek death."
"It's not that serious, is it?"
Xiao Ni'er blinked in disbelief and said: "Based on the abilities of you and Lu Zijin, Master, there aren't many people of the same level who can stop them now, right?"
"You underestimate the world's monks too much. Like Lu Zijin, his attacks are sharp, his speed is much higher than that of the same level, and his body is tempered to be comparable to a magic weapon. It is majestic enough, but what can you do? War is not a one-on-one fight, a duel between masters is even more important. It's a brainstorming job. Just set up a wooden trap formation or a magic formation to limit Lu Zi's speed advantage. Just say hello to other corrosive ghosts and witchcraft, add some powerful poison, and it's ironclad. Lu Zijin can also turn into water."
Zhang Wenfeng's words made the donkey's black hair stand on end and its buttocks tightened.
The cold wind whizzed, and my heart went cold.
Xiao Ni'er said "Uh-huh" for a long time, unable to find the words to refute. She always felt that the viewer was exaggerating, so she rolled her eyes and said: "Aren't you the viewer to save the situation? Master, your swordsmanship is so powerful. , how will they deal with it?"
"There are many ways to deal with them. Two of them are good at swordsmanship. They are more than enough to entangle me. If I fight sword against sword, I have no skills at all. How can I rescue Lu Zijin?"
"Isn't there still me?"
"You? Attack it with fire and drain the lake to catch fish. Little Ni'er, you are in big trouble!"
Zhang Wenfeng chuckled and made a fire gesture with his hand. Seeing that the little girl was frightened, he said: "So, we must in turn improve our own weaknesses in response to possible bad situations, cover them up and improve them into traps, so that they can feel satisfied." Plan, and counterattack again!"
"...Guanzhu, you are so insidious!"
Xiao Ni'er held back a sentence for a while, and was rewarded by the viewer with a loud pop.
