Duan Wenjun definitely didn't know what Chai Jingyun was thinking.

At this moment, I was lying on the hard bed in my room, carefully searching and sorting out every bit of information in my mind.

When he came to Lingxiao City, he only brought Mo Shoucheng and Yun Batian with him.

Moreover, no one in Wangjiang or Duanjiabao has been told yet.

However, when he arrived at Prince Rui's Mansion, Chai Jingyun seemed to have expected that he would come.

Especially, when he asked for information about Shan Fengshan, Chai Jingyun actually brought him here in person.

At first, he felt that it was definitely not Chai Jingyun who was paying attention to him.

Even though they had been relatively close recently, he knew very well that he and Chai Jingyun had not yet developed such a good relationship.

Duan Wenjun has always felt that no matter what happens in the world, if it violates the general principles and appears abnormal, then something will definitely happen behind the scenes.

Although he didn't think that Chai Jingyun would harm him, he felt that Chai Jingyun must have his own purpose.

However, he did not expect that Chai Jingyun would say those words to him tonight, those words from the bottom of his heart.

A drink, a brotherhood.

Live and die together with sincerity and gallbladder.

Sometimes, friendship between men is just that simple.

However, he still had too many doubts in his heart.

Could it be that I am really too careful? Too suspicious?

But Chai Jingyun actually offered to give himself half of Shan Fengshan's gold mine. This was really unusual.

There has never been a precedent for the gold mine in Dashun to be licensed to private individuals.

Moreover, Chai Jingyun is just the second son of Prince Rui's idle family. He doesn't even have a title. How could he promise such a heavy thing?

Even if the eldest princess's face may be involved, Emperor Shun may not necessarily agree...

However, such a big thing as suppressing bandits and recruiting people to Moon Island did not fall on his head, and there were also southern frontier troops to support him.

It seems unreasonable...

Unconsciously, Duan Wenjun slowly fell into sleep.

When I woke up, it was already the next day and it was too bright.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he found someone sitting next to his bed. "Old Mo, when did you come back? Why didn't you call me?"

"I've been back for a while." Mo Shoucheng looked at him, with a rare smile on his face. "I haven't seen you sleeping so soundly for a long time, so I didn't have the heart to call you."

"Two men, don't you think these words are a bit disgusting?" Duan Wenjun felt a touch of warmth and emotion in his heart, climbed up, looked at him again and spoke again, "How are you? What did you find?"

"That old Taoist priest is not blind, and he is a perfectly normal person." Mo Shoucheng slowly replied, "He has a house in Lingxiao City, where he has a woman who has given birth to two children."

"Did you find out that he was in contact with the golden gangster?" Duan Wenjun asked again.

"No, but he went to find Jiu Mianxiao and his wife." Mo Shoucheng frowned.

"Nine-faced Xiao couple? Who are those?" Duan Wenjun was stunned.

"People from the Alchemy Sect." Mo Shoucheng's tone became very solemn, "He is also the person who purchases the most gold sand on the black market."

"So, what you mean is that you suspect that the old Taoist priest is the person responsible for selling gold sand among the gold bandits?" Duan Wenjun immediately reacted.

"Not sure." Mo Shoucheng shook his head, "But it's very possible. Their skills are not weak, so Sister Yun and I don't dare to follow too close for fear of being discovered."

"By the way, there is one more thing that I think you might also be interested in." He changed the subject and continued.

"What happened?" Duan Wenjun was stunned again.

"There is another person following them, that person from Prince Rui's Mansion." Mo Shoucheng said again.

"That's impossible, Lou Loulou was with me all the time yesterday!" Duan Wenjun immediately retorted.

"It's not Lieutenant Lou, but the horseman." Mo Shoucheng shook his head, "Do you still remember, last time Mr. Chai went to Wangjiang, that morning we went to deliver wine, and that man drove the car."

"Why would a groom follow an old Taoist priest?" Duan Wenjun was a little confused.

"To be precise, it is possible that the groom was not following the old Taoist priest, but the Jiu-faced Xiao couple." Mo Shoucheng said, "When we followed the old Taoist priest to his home, the man did not show up. The old Taoist priest went to see the Jiu-faced Xiao couple. , he was hiding in the dark, and Sister Yun and I didn’t notice him at first. I don’t know if he noticed that we were following him.”

Duan Wenjun nodded thoughtfully, and after a long time he said, "Where's Sister Yun?"

"She asked me to come back to report. She is still following those people." Mo Shoucheng stood up and said, "Old Duan, what are your next plans? Do you want us to arrest the old Taoist priest directly?"

"No need for the time being." Duan Wenjun shook his head, "Old Mo, there is one more thing I need your help with."

Duan Wenjun leaned into Mo Shoucheng's ear and said a few words, and Mo Shoucheng's brows immediately furrowed. "Old Duan, what do you mean by this? Do you want to threaten the old Taoist priest with his family?"

"It's not a threat. I just want to ask them to move to another place." Duan Wenjun sighed. "I just don't want the matter of Master Jingxuan to happen again. If we take action, the old Taoist priest might be the second one." Li Deming, maybe we saved three people?"

"Okay! This matter is not difficult, I will do it right away!" Mo Shoucheng nodded, "I just told them that it was the old Taoist priest who asked me to take them away for refuge."

Duan Wenjun didn't care much about how Mo Shoucheng arranged for the old Taoist priest's family. At this moment, he walked to the door of Chai Jingyun's room and knocked on the door.

After a long time, Chai Jingyun got up and opened the door. When she saw Duan Wenjun, she suddenly looked excited, "Brother Duan, what's the news?"

"Old Mo just came back and they found out that the old Taoist priest and Jiu Mianxiao and his wife met." Duan Wenjun did not hide anything.

At this moment, there was no need for him to hide it.

He stared at Chai Jingyun closely, hoping to find something on his face.

After all, the master Mo Shoucheng was talking about was the carriage driver of Prince Rui's Mansion.

However, Chai Jingyun didn't feel anything strange. She stared at him with a horrified expression and said, "You said that the Nine-faced Xiao couple also came to our Lingxiao County?"

"Where are they? Are Mo Daxia and the others confident about subduing them?" Behind him, Lou Loulou's eyes lit up, "Mr. Duan, if we can catch the Nine-faced Owl and his wife, it will be a great achievement!"

"Sister Yun is following them. When Mo Daxia came back, they were still at the Yuelai Inn in Lingxiao City with the old Taoist priest." Duan Wenjun replied.

"Second Young Master, I will go back to the school grounds to rectify the troops and capture the old Taoist priest and the Nine-faced Xiao couple." Lou Loulou's face turned stern.

"No!" Chai Jingyun waved his hand and thought for a long time before speaking, "Loulou, you send someone to notify the people in the city to come and join us. It's better for us to ambush near the Taoist temple and wait for work in leisure!"

"Going to a Taoist temple?" Lou Loulou was stunned, and even Duan Wenjun was stunned.

"Yes, let's go to the Taoist temple!" Chai Jingyun nodded. "You go and assemble the team, and I'll tell Zhang Yucheng to ask Shan Fengshan Battalion to unite with the defenders here to completely block all roads up and down the mountain. Let Wang Haichun follow us."

When doing business, Chai Jingyun's resolute and resolute character suddenly emerged.

Before he finished speaking, he had already stood up and walked towards Zhang Yucheng's residence.
