There is a big question mark on Sun Dayong's head.
What does this mean?
He was a little confused about the brain circuits of these warriors.
Shouldn't the first thing to do about such rumors and rumors is to block the news as soon as possible? Why did Gu Xiaotian come here and hope that the whole city would know about it?
However, Sun Dayong also recognized his position and nodded in agreement without asking any more questions.
Gu Xiaotian said goodbye and left the inn carrying the box of generous gifts.
Sun Dayong watched Gu Xiaotian walk away from the window. He called the innkeeper and said: "These days, anyone who comes to your inn to have a drink, please mention the Wan Yao Hui more often."
The shopkeeper was also a little confused, just like Sun Dayong at that time.
However, the shopkeeper showed his position correctly and accepted without asking any questions.
…
…
dusk.
Gu Xiaotian and Xiao Yinyin found the Sage Academy.
This academy is called Sage, but from the outside, it seems a bit unworthy of this word.
This is not surprising, after all, in this world, being a warrior is more respectable than being a scholar.
The academy is not big and is located in an extremely inconspicuous location.
At this time, the bell just rang in the academy, and there was a sound of getting up from the academy. Not long after, students came to the entrance of the academy carrying book baskets, ready to go home.
Gu Xiaotian stopped a scholar, took out Xu Miao's portrait and asked, "Excuse me, do you know the person in the portrait?"
There were not many students in the academy, and these scholars naturally knew each other. The scholar nodded repeatedly, immediately turned around and shouted at the top of his voice, "Xu Miao, someone is looking for you!"
Xu Miao came to the door carrying a book basket, looked at Gu Xiaotian and Xiao Yinyin, and frowned.
Gu Xiaotian smiled and said hello: "Is that so Xu Miao? I wonder if you have time, could I buy you a drink?"
Xu Miao looked at the two of them unclearly, and he didn't know the other's intention. He wanted to refuse, but found that Gu Xiaotian suddenly lifted his clothes, revealing a sword and a belt hidden at his waist.
There was a word "demon" written on the waist tag, but Xu Miao couldn't see it clearly. Naturally, this waist tag had been specially made by someone long ago.
After all, Xu Miao didn't join the Ten Thousand Demons Association, so how did he know what the Ten Thousand Demons Association's waist cards looked like.
This is all the bait that Gu Xiaotian spread for Xu Miao.
At this time, Xu Miao's mind was filled with thoughts about the Ten Thousand Demons Association. After seeing the sword and waist badge, most of his vigilance was immediately eliminated. He thought it was the Ten Thousand Demons Association who sent someone to allow him to join the Ten Thousand Demons Association. The demons have gathered.
Xu Miao immediately smiled and quickly said: "Of course I have time, but I have to treat you two to drink this wine."
Gu Xiaotian smiled slightly, did not refuse, made an invitation gesture, and followed Xu Miao.
Xu Miao naturally brought Gu Xiaotian into the inn where he often went. After entering, Xu Miao said: "Shopkeeper, I am happy today, please give me two jars of your best wine! "
The shopkeeper came to the table with two jars of wine and asked with a smile: "Scholar Xu, why are you so happy?"
Xu Miao slapped a few taels of broken silver on the table, waved his hand and said, "Ask what you should ask, don't ask what you shouldn't. Do you need a reason to be happy?"
The shopkeeper chuckled and took away the money. Before leaving, he suddenly remembered Sun Dayong's instructions. He turned to Gu Xiaotian and his group and said, "Everyone, it is said that the Ten Thousand Demons Association has attracted many people in the city. You must be careful. Some."
When he heard the words Wan Yao Hui, Xu Miao's expression suddenly paused. He quickly stood up and pushed the shopkeeper, saying with some dissatisfaction: "Go, go, you are talking too much."
After the shopkeeper left, Xu Miao breathed out slowly, with a smile on his face. He turned back to Gu Xiaotian and said: "You two adults, please don't listen to the shopkeeper's nonsense. Xu admires the Ten Thousand Demons Club. for a long time."
Gu Xiaotian smiled, then acted with Xu Miao and said: "It doesn't matter, our Ten Thousand Demons Association never cares about these rumors, we only care about like-minded people."
As he spoke, he glanced at Xu Miao with a meaningful look.
Xu Miao immediately sat up straight and quickly filled up the wine for Gu Xiaotian and Xiao Yinyin. He raised his glass first, said good things about the Ten Thousand Demons Club, and then drank it all.
Xu Miao wiped his mouth and asked: "I wonder what the two adults are looking for today?"
Gu Xiaotian cleared his throat and said in an official tone: "You have done a good job in the city, and you will be an effective member of the Ten Thousand Demons Association in the future."
After hearing this, Xu Miao was very excited on the spot.
With the approval of these two adults, he will soon usher in the day of success.
Xu Miao immediately drank another cup, stood up, and saluted: "Xu is willing to devote himself to the Ten Thousand Demons Society and die!"
At this moment, Gu Xiaotian's plan had succeeded.
Xu Miao now has no doubts about the identity of Gu Xiaotian's Ten Thousand Demons Society.
Gu Xiaotian couldn't help but find it funny. This person who read the book of sages seemed to have a bad mind. He came to find someone in such a high-sounding manner, but Xu Miao only saw the forged waistband and did not raise any suspicion.
It seems that the conditions offered by the Ten Thousand Demons Association are indeed generous, causing scholars like Xu Miao to lose their ability to think and only think about future glory and wealth.
After Gu Xiaotian took a sip of wine, he said, "Xu Miao, I still need you to do something for me."
"Sir, please speak."
"I need you to help me keep an eye on Lang Ping."
Xu Miao was stunned for a moment, in disbelief.
Who is Mr. Lang Ping? He is an official sent by the imperial court and is the manager of the entire Sage Academy. Although his real power is not great, all the students in Sage Academy cannot avoid him.
Moreover, Lang Ping also has another identity, which Xu Miao also knows very well.
That is a member of the Ten Thousand Demons Association.
It is because of this that Xu Miao feels even more incredible.
He was obviously a member of the Ten Thousand Demons Association, so why did this gentleman let him keep an eye on Lang Ping?
Xu Miao opened his mouth, wanting to ask a few more questions, but in the end he swallowed the question back.
Gu Xiaotian raised his eyebrows and said, "Why, you don't want to?"
Xu Miao nodded coyly, and then immediately opened his mouth in panic: "Sir, it's not that Xu is unwilling, it's just that Dean Lang has a certain say among the scholars in this city, and Dean Lang's identity must be two Your Excellency should know better than Xu."
Xu Miao's words confirmed Lang Ping's identity.
This is certainly a gain for Gu Xiaotian.
At the very least, he already knew who the ghost was hiding in this city.
As for whether this ghost has any other accomplices, there is no need to worry too much now. As long as you hold on to this thread and keep touching, more ghosts will always surface.
Gu Xiaotian coughed twice, pretended to be helpless, and sighed: "I thought you should be an obedient subordinate, but now it seems that is not the case. Forget it, it's okay if you don't keep an eye on me. I'll do something else. If you find others to complete this matter, after the things in the city are completed, you can return to the Ten Thousand Demons Association and I will arrange other matters for you."
As soon as the words fell, Gu Xiaotian was about to get up and leave.
When Xu Miao saw this scene, he quickly stood up in panic.
Seeing that Xu Miao still looked hesitant, Gu Xiaotian waved his hand and said: "No need to send it away, we have other things to do, you can just wait for the next move of the Ten Thousand Demons Association. "
"Sir..." Xu Miao finally spoke. After some inner struggle, he finally made a decision and said firmly: "I am willing to keep an eye on Lang Ping for you, and I beg you to give me this chance."
The corners of Gu Xiaotian's mouth curved.
His strategy of retreating in order to advance seemed to be working.
Gu Xiaotian nodded, pulled off his belt card, threw it on the table, and said word by word: "Don't let me down."
Xu Miao tremblingly picked up the waist tag. Looking at the words on the waist tag, his heart seemed to be more determined. He immediately nodded and said: "Please rest assured, sir, I will never let you down!"
…
…
Xu Miao left the inn with his waist card. In order to show off in front of the adults, he did not return to his small courtyard, but headed towards Lang Ping's mansion.
Arriving in front of Lang Ping's mansion, the guard saw Xu Miao and blocked him from the door.
At this time, Xu Miao looked a bit like a dog fighting for power, and said in a bad tone: "I want to see Mr. Lang, please get out of the way."
Hearing this unkind tone, the guard naturally did not give him a good look, but drove him away: "Any cat or dog dares to see Mr. Lang. If you don't leave, don't blame us for being rude."
Xu Miao threatened: "Oh? Do you want to touch me?"
Upon hearing this, the two guards laughed.
What do you mean, we brothers don’t dare to touch a weak scholar like you?
With that said, the two guards picked up their sticks and prepared to drive Xu Miao away.
In the past, if Xu Miao saw such a scene, he would naturally say something nice and beg for mercy. But things are different now. With the rights given by those two adults, Xu Miao's back instantly stiffened. Facing those two Genzhi didn't panic at all, and said with some anger: "Two unruly people, let Mr. Lang come out to see me in person and say that the Ten Thousand Demons Society is looking for him!"
Hearing the words "Ten Thousand Demons Meeting", the two guards were suddenly startled.
Nowadays, the Ten Thousand Demons Society is well known in the city, and they naturally know it, but they are just guards. Naturally, they don't know that their own adults are also involved. Looking at Xu Miao's life-long appearance as a righteous scholar, they thought it was To provide some clues or something, the two guards looked at each other and then turned and entered the mansion.
Not long after, the guard came out and said softly: "Master Lang, please go to the main room to have a chat."
Xu Miao nodded with a smile, crossed the threshold, and headed towards the main room.
Arriving in front of the main room, Xu Miao pushed open the door and walked in. When he saw Master Lang sitting at the desk reading, he cupped his hands and said with a smile, "Master Lang is so elegant."
Lang Ping slowly stood up, looked at Xu Miao's appearance, and frowned slightly.
Why doesn't he remember that there is such a person under the Ten Thousand Demons Society?
Xu Miao looked at Lang Ping's expression and said with a smile: "Master Lang, you don't have to be like this. Xu also just joined the Ten Thousand Demons Association not long ago. Naturally, he hasn't had time to see you yet."
Lang Ping was dubious about this. After all, among the scholars, there were many people who pretended to be members of the Ten Thousand Demons Society, naturally hoping to gain the support of other scholars.
However, Xu Miao was the first person who dared to come to the door.
Xu Miao slowly walked to the opposite side of Lang Ping, sat down, and said straight to the point: "I won't say much else. Master Lang has sent me to keep an eye on you."
