Ying Eleven was silent for a while, trying hard to suppress his overly excited emotions. He never thought that his dream would come true so soon.
In fact, with his position in the Zhenguo Palace, he could ask Shen Haolin and Shen Cha to make the decision for him and find enemies for him, but he had never done so, nor did he want to do so.
In the eyes of other people, border guarding is just leaving the bustling capital city, living in a relatively desolate place, and occasionally having to deal with invading enemies. This is what guarding the border is all about.
He didn't know what other people thought about guarding the border, at least the people who fled to the border with him and now returned to their hometown thought so, but he knew very well in his heart how difficult and dangerous this job was. It is not as easy or simple as those people think. If it is really just a matter of changing places to live, there will be a large number of people in Xijing City who want to come to Jiapingguan City to gain qualifications for promotion.
It was because he had personally experienced how difficult it was that he was embarrassed to ask the Duke, the General, and the Marquis to help investigate his enemies. The affairs of the Shen Jiajun, the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion, and the Wuding Marquis Mansion were a mess. The Kingdom of Jin, the Kingdom of Liao, and those bastards hiding in the dark all have their eyes on Jiaping Pass, and if there is any oversight, they will be taken advantage of. What's more, his enemy is the Green Lotus Sect, and no one can be killed no matter how hard he fights. He can't cause trouble for the bosses.
But he didn't expect that the last enemy of Zhenguo Duke's Mansion and Wuding Hou's Mansion was actually the Green Lotus Sect, so he had to make this request bravely.
When he proposed it, he never thought that the bosses would agree, but the bosses actually agreed without even frowning, and they didn't even really say his request.
Xue Ruitian looked at Ying Eleven's clenched hands and slightly trembling body, and reached out to pat his shoulder.
"Why are you so excited all of a sudden?"
"I am...I am..."
“I understand what you mean.” , you tell us and we won’t disagree.”
"That's it." Jin Jing also patted him on the shoulder, "Okay, just say it. Since the goal is the same, it saves us trouble, right?"
"Yes." Ying Eleven wiped his eyes and smiled at them sheepishly, "This room is really hot, making me sweat all over."
"..." Xue Ruitian sighed and looked at him, "Forget it, let it be whatever you say, as long as you are happy."
"Master Hou, I'm quite happy then."
"Cry sometimes, laugh sometimes, be careful to be regarded as a little lunatic." Xue Ruitian saw that Ying Eleven's mood had stabilized, and sighed softly, "By the way, have you ever truly followed the Qinglian sect? Have you had any contact with the envoy or his entourage?"
"Contact? What kind of basis?" Ying Eleven looked at Shen Haolin, Shen Cha, and then Xue Ruitian, "The kind that you have spoken to?"
"Absolutely, what you observed will do." Shen Cha thought for a while, "For example, what characteristics they have, looks, accents, accessories, etc., as long as you see them, you can tell me."
"Well... let me think about it, I was young at the time and didn't actually have much contact with them."
"It doesn't matter. If you think about it, just say it. If you really can't think of it, don't force it."
"At that time, my sister and I were still very young, I was about three or four years old, and my sister was more than one year old. We were very strictly disciplined by our family, and we didn't really let the children leave the house. We were a little better at ordinary times, and we could go out to play. For a while, but when the envoys came to collect offerings or stationed there, there were basically no children in the village."
"Then how did you see those people?"
"Lie against the window!" Ying Eleven smiled at Xue Ruitian, "All the children in the village do this. And, as you know, children, the more the adults at home don't let them do something, the more they want to do it. It must be the same when going out. You can’t go out, but you can still lean on the window and take a look. In fact, it’s not just our family, it’s like this in the village, that is..."
"That's what?"
"The situation of the village chief and Li Zheng's family is a bit special. After all, the so-called envoys and their entourage live in these two families. According to what they said, they are two very knowledgeable families who can get along with those people. However, …”
"But what?"
"Even if we get together, it's useless. In the end, aren't we just like everyone else?" Ying Eleven sneered, "We didn't get the slightest benefit. At least there are other families in the village and survivors. Their two families , not a single one survived.”
"This can be regarded as the deserved outcome for helping someone commit evil!"
"Yes." Ying Eleven nodded and reached out to touch his chin, "Although we just leaned against the window and watched a few times without any real contact, we can still distinguish those people to some extent." After passing by Shen Haolin After agreeing, he picked up the brush on the table and drew a pattern on the paper, "This is their totem."
"Hmm!" Shen Cha and Shen Haolin exchanged a look. A Piao also drew this pattern in the secret letter, which was basically the same as what Ying Eleven drew. "I've seen this pattern before."
"This is the symbol of a believer in the Qinglian Sect. Generally, this symbol will appear on the wrist, ankle, back of the neck, or even on the chest. However, the exact location is determined by the believer's status in the sect. But these , I’m not very sure. People in my family are all ordinary believers, and their symbols are on their wrists, and they can confirm their identity by stretching out their hands.”
"It's so obvious because you're afraid that others won't know, right?"
"Because everyone in the village is like this. It would be very colorful if you didn't have it." Shen Cha saw Ying Eleven and nodded, "Can you think of anything else?"
"Hmm..." Ying Eleven scratched his chin in distress, "It feels like nothing else. I really haven't had any contact with you, so that's all I know. However, these people all have the same problem. They are arrogant and have trouble walking. They act arrogantly and think they are powerful, but in fact they are nothing but a bunch of rabble."
"That was their heyday, and they must have been very arrogant." Xue Ruitian chuckled, "When the Green Lotus Sect was at its most powerful, there were people from all three religions and nine schools. If you don't believe it, they would still treat them as enemies." He He sighed softly, "They are like rats in the gutter now. They need to hide in the moistest and darkest corners. They are afraid that others will discover their existence, so they dare not be so public. That is to say, the Kingdom of Jin is now in a mess. Damn, they dare to show even a little bit of their abnormality."
