When night falls, Baidi City bids farewell to the hustle and bustle of the day and starts to shine again with lights, wine and candles.
Looking down from a high altitude, the lights are connected together, and the ink-like night fills the gaps between the lights. The two look like the intertwined chess pieces on a chessboard.
Although the deep palaces of the Imperial City appear colder than other places, it has always been the brightest place in the chessboard of heaven and earth made of night. However, if we talk about where the most eye-catching place is at this time, it is the one to the north of the Imperial City. an area.
Qintian Prison is located between the Imperial Palace and the Imperial Ancestral Temple. There are many buildings without any lights.
At this time, on the highest balcony of the Qintian Prison, the starlight falling as the night fell covered the entire white jade platform.
You Fang, the palm print of Qin Tianjian, sat cross-legged in the center of the high platform. Following his guidance, the falling starlight combined with the formation under him, and bursts of soft light bloomed around him.
After these glimmers of light spread into the night, they continue to evolve into mysterious pictures, sometimes stars moving around the sky, sometimes golden fireworks lighting up the dark earth.
Continuous night clouds came to the top of the star observatory, and the stars gradually dimmed.
You Fang slowly exhaled a breath, secretly glad that he had finished stargazing. He didn't bother to wipe the fine cold sweat on his forehead. He stood up and turned around, then immediately prostrated and said without raising his head: "Your Majesty, from Suzaku City. Although the luck has escaped, I can still barely sense it."
Bai Di stood at the edge of the formation. He cast his gaze towards the night sky in the southwest and asked, "What's the reason?"
You Fang seemed to have expected that the emperor would ask this question. His silver eyebrows moved slightly and he said smoothly: "The thief is just a mess that goes against the law of heaven. The dynasty is what the people of this world want. I guess, as long as the people of Suzaku City If people don’t realize the difference and keep communicating with other parts of the dynasty, then the luck of this city will eventually return to the territory of the dynasty.”
Bai Di looked away, looked at You Fang who was about to bury his face on the ground, and said, "I don't want to hear any flattery when I come here."
You Fang's heart tightened and he quickly responded: "Yes."
"Stand up." Bai Di's figure looked more serious and majestic in the night, and said: "Since you can sense the luck of Suzaku City, you can sense the seal of the city lord, right?"
"Yes." You Fang glanced at Bai Di from the corner of his eye. Seeing Bai Di's expressionless face, he had a bad feeling in his heart.
Bai Di asked: "Now this City Lord's Seal can be regarded as a Dingding device. Can you sense the position of the person who uses it?"
You Fang was shocked, thinking he had guessed something, and said cautiously: "Today is the limit, but as long as there is constant traffic between Suzaku City and other places, it shouldn't be a problem."
Bai Di frowned slightly and looked at You Fang.
You Fang gritted his teeth, raised his head and said, "Okay. In two days at most."
Bai Di hummed, remained silent for a moment, and asked, "What would happen if the person who uses it leaves Suzaku City or even the dynasty without taking it with them?"
You Fang was stunned for a moment, thinking about how this could happen, and said slowly: "If the other party notices something and doesn't carry the Seal of the City Lord on him, as long as he is still in the territory of the dynasty, he can do it even if he holds a lowly position. Sensing his approximate location."
Seeing that Bai Di was silent, You Fang said cautiously: "Does Your Majesty need to take a humble position to monitor his movements?"
Bai Di narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "What do you think?"
You Fang hurriedly said: "I have never dared to forget His Majesty's instructions, and if you want to repair the Dingguo Cauldron, the best way may be to refining the Seal of the City Lord and then melting it into the Dingguo Cauldron, and This also requires killing this thief and completely cutting off the connection between the Seal of the City Lord and him."
Bai Di glanced at You Fang in surprise and said, "Although I have left this matter to you, I also know that it is not an easy task. There is no definite date for repairing the Zhenguo Tripod."
You Fang felt a little regretful, but he also understood the implication of Bai Di's words and said seriously: "My subordinates will sense his location as soon as possible."
"Well, thank you for your hard work, let's go down." Bai Di said to You Fang.
You Fang left the observatory, but Bai Di did not leave. After a while, when there was a slight movement behind him, he turned around, looked at the visitor and said with a smile: "Is Elder Gu still used to living there?"
"Um."
Perhaps because he was used to the nights in the Northern Wilderness, Gu Ci did not live in the palace specially arranged for him by Bai Emperor, but moved to Qintian Prison.
Gu Ci slowly walked to Bai Di, looked at the formation on the ground and said, "This stargazing technique is indeed somewhat magical. The Qin Tianjian's palm print is only a first-grade spiritual being, but it can sense the flow of luck in such a territory."
"This is not the beginning of my Bai family, but it was a coincidence when the dynasty was first established."
Bai Di responded casually, his eyes fell on Gu Ci's face, and he suddenly said: "Counting the time, they should have arrived at the Western Mountains."
Gu Ci hummed, met Bai Emperor's gaze and said, "Your Majesty, are you still worried?"
Bai Di chuckled lightly and said, "I always act according to my ability. I know that the elder wants to kill Mu Qing, and it's not that he is unwilling to help. But shouldn't we be more honest with each other?"
The smile on Bai Di's face faded and he said: "Until now, the elder still refuses to say which member of the Lin family he contacted?"
Gu Ci narrowed his eyes slightly and asked curiously: "Didn't His Majesty not intend to get involved before? Why did he suddenly ask about this matter?"
Bai Di glanced at Gu Ci, turned to look at the night sky in the southwest, and said, "Elder, why are you doing this? Now and then, since I let the caravan go to the Western Mountains, it is no longer possible to stay out of the matter."
Gu Ci suddenly said a name. Bai Di thought it was an illusion and subconsciously said, "Huh?"
Gu Ci looked at Bai Di's surprised expression and said calmly: "You heard me right, the person behind this is this elder."
Bai Di looked thoughtful, thinking about the relationship between these people, and said after a moment: "This is interesting... I am a little curious, if we have the need to kill Mu Qing, what about them?"
"For them, Mu Qing was an insignificant person from beginning to end. Although his relationship with that lady seemed abrupt and special, it could not affect the overall situation after all. Before that incident, they had many choices. And this is definitely the worst kind.”
Having said this, Bai Di seemed to have thought of some seemingly unbelievable but reasonable possibility, and looked at Gu Ci with strange eyes: "Why do the elders think they will do this?"
"It seems that Your Majesty has guessed it?" Gu Ci smiled faintly and said: "Some people in this world die quietly, and some people die in shocking ways. There is a high probability that Mu Qing will have both."
People are killed every day in this world and then die silently.
But just because he died quietly doesn't mean he won't leave any clues.
Killing Mu Qing will most likely involve a very high level of existence. If those people are traced, what's the use of covering it up?
In the end, it will only deepen the rift between the two parties and accelerate the moment when the conflict breaks out.
When Bai Di thought of this, his face became a little ugly, and he said slowly: "It turns out they just want to cause chaos."
Gu Ci sighed: "Chaos leads to change. Some people in the Lin family are unwilling to settle for the status quo, so others will naturally be happy to watch a good show."
"The Gu family can watch a good show? But where are you in the Bai Dynasty?" Bai Di suddenly changed his title and his tone was much colder.
"Your Majesty, please calm down." Gu Ci said, "This is the Lin family's own business."
"It is indeed their own business." Bai Di said with a cold face: "But the Lin family leader made a note of it."
Gu Ci's lips moved slightly and he was about to speak, but was interrupted by Bai Di, "Don't mention that it resulted in killing Mu Qing. You should know why I was able to break through so quickly."
"Killing this person is never something I have to do immediately. A large part of the reason why I sent the caravan to the Western Mountains is because of you."
Gu Ci thought he understood what Bai Emperor meant and said, "Your Majesty, are you planning to give up?"
Bai Di shook his head, looked into Gu Ci's eyes, and said seriously: "I will continue to cooperate."
"Oh?" Gu Ci was a little surprised, and suddenly realized that he had not seen through Bai Di's mind.
Bai Di said: "I suddenly thought that the Lin family master would not be able to see through this. As long as he doesn't move, even that young lady will not be able to cause a bigger disturbance."
Gu Ci frowned slightly, and Bai Di continued: "And if someone comes here to find out, I plan to tell the truth."
Gu Ci's eyes flashed, looking at Bai Di's expressionless face, he sighed softly: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, this kind of thing won't happen."
"Can I still trust the elders?" Bai Di asked.
Gu Ci said: "Of course."
Bai Di knew that it would not happen, but it did not mean that the other party would not know what Bai Di City had done and what role it played in the future. He said softly: "Then bless them. Letting a little girl be the heir is indeed not that popular. "
Gu Ci looked in the direction of the Western Mountain Realm and said, "I hope it will be a result that everyone is willing to see."
Bai Di glanced at him and said meaningfully: "The elder thinks that killing Mu Qing is the best way to help Young Master Gu. Are there many people in the Gu family who have the same idea as you?"
Gu Ci's expression tightened and he asked, "What do you mean, Your Majesty?"
Bai Di said: "It's nothing, I'm just a little curious about how the contact person arranged by the elder will introduce your identity."
…
"I am the contact person chosen by the ancient elder."
In a secluded cave in the Western Mountains, a middle-aged man in luxurious clothes bent over and answered without daring to breathe.
In front of him, the two young men didn't even look at him from beginning to end.
"Brother, this is indeed someone from the Gu family."
There was a gentle smile on the face of the speaker, and he was holding a jade tablet in his hand. After the infuriating energy was activated, a trace of the purest witch blood was exuding from it.
Seeing his response, the middle-aged man quickly put on a smile and said: "I know that this jade tablet is more important than my life, so after arriving in the Western Mountain Realm, I followed the instructions of the ancient elder and kept searching for the two young masters. "
The young man who was called eldest brother snorted coldly: "Are the elders of the Gu family full of sand in their heads? What do you want to do when you come to the Western Mountains at this time? Do you think our place is not chaotic enough? I still feel that the head of the Gu family is a bit regretful for not killing them in the first place. ?”
As he spoke, a bright light flashed across the room, and it was about to cut off the middle-aged man's head.
