I'm writing novels in Liaozhai

"Okay, please come with me, both of you."

Under the leadership of the woman, Gu Ming and Bai Suzhen entered the cellar in the backyard together.

There are many large and small wine jars inside, as well as some airtight wooden barrels.

"Young master, there are quite a lot of wine here, at least worth tens of thousands of taels. I wonder if you have brought enough silver?"

"As long as the wine is good, what is a mere ten thousand taels of silver?"

Gu Ming had a rich and powerful tone.

At this moment, the wine in front of him suddenly disappeared out of thin air.

"This"

Seeing this, the woman couldn't help but frown.

In a daze, Gu Ming changed places, and with a thought, he put all the wine nearby into his carry-on bag.

"Bold!"

The woman finally came back to her senses, she couldn't help shouting angrily, and slapped the air, and a faintly visible palm shadow slapped down in the air.

"Finally can't help showing your face?"

Gu Ming smiled sarcastically, raised his hand lightly, and resolved the woman's offensive.

At this time, Bai Suzhen finally understood what Gu Ming meant by not giving money. This woman from the Western Regions is not a good bird.

"Who the hell are you?"

the woman asked murderously.

"It doesn't matter. What matters is who you are? Obviously, you are not a serious businessman at all."

"Why do you say that? We have been traveling for many years, and it is normal to learn some self-defense techniques."

"Stop pretending, you can lie to others, but you can't fool me, including your face."

The woman's face was frosty: "Are you from the imperial court?"

"That's right!"

"Hmph, so what if you are a member of the imperial court? May I ask which law of your court I have violated?"

"If there are too many, first, you are a member of the Holy Fire Cult"

"What holy fire religion?"

The woman pretended to be dazed.

"I don't need to admit it, just listen. Your name is Lucia, and you have an accomplice. Well, to be precise, it's your uncle, and his name is Abu"

"you"

Lucia looked shocked.

How did this guy know such a top secret thing?

This point is exactly the loophole that Gu Ming found. The Holy Fire Cult looks like an iron bucket, but it is not completely absolute.

Especially for these expatriate personnel, it is said that they have a one-way, one-line connection, but after arriving in the Central Plains, the circle of people from the Western Regions is so large, and after a long time, it is inevitable that there will be some intersections.

And some are still friends or relatives, which makes it even more difficult to ensure that their identities are not revealed.

It's just that it's hard for outsiders to know, but in the circle of strangers from the Western Regions, there are always some clues to follow.

"I know it's hard to get you to speak up, but since I have a way to make Abu obediently confess, you are no exception."

"Don't even think about it!"

The woman cursed angrily, and then rushed towards the cellar like lightning.

Gu Ming stood where he was, with a smile on his face, quietly looking at the back of the woman who was about to disappear.

"boom"

The woman had already floated to the entrance of the cellar, and she was about to flee, but a white palm suddenly appeared, and with a light touch, she was thrown back.

"I advise you to be honest!" Bai Suzhen said in a cold tone.

"Hehe, you don't want to get anything out of me."

The woman smiled disapprovingly

At this time, Gu Ming's heart skipped a beat, without thinking, he raised his hand and flicked

At the same time, a trace of blood dripped from the corner of the woman's mouth.

"Damn it, she cut off her heart."

"Fortunately, I didn't feel right, and a dark energy popped out in time to seal her air pocket. Well, it should still be saved."

Gu Ming exhaled lightly.

This can also be regarded as a lesson, if you encounter similar situations in the future, you must take the first step to prevent the other party from committing suicide.

Not long after, Gu Ming and Bai Suzhen took Lucia to the grove near the market without knowing it.

First, Bai Suzhen rescued Lucia with her wonderful hands.

Afterwards, Gu Ming followed suit and began to brainwash Lucia in reverse.

This trick is unique, and it works everywhere.

It didn't take long for Lucia to explain everything in detail.

Although her status within the organization is lower than that of Abu, the information revealed is more important to Gu Ming.

From Lucia's confession, he has a certain degree of understanding of the method and control method of the Sacred Fire Cult in the Western Regions.

Perhaps this is just the tip of the iceberg.

However, as long as there is a tear in anything, the next step will be much easier.

As the saying goes, "a dike of a thousand miles collapses in an ant's nest" is a truth.

As for the accomplice, Lucia has never met her. Her store is equivalent to an information transfer station, and her accomplice is responsible for collecting all kinds of information and handing it over to her.

Of course, it is not handed over in person, but placed in a specific place for Lucia to collect and summarize, then put it in another place, and the upline will take it away.

It is precisely because of this method, coupled with mental control, that these people would rather die than confess, so it is almost impossible to severely damage the Holy Fire Cult in a short time.

Including Gu Ming, they can only take one step at a time, like walking through a maze, slowly breaking down the defense of the opponent until they reach the core layer.

As long as there is a chance to catch a core member, it will be much easier.

Fortunately, although Lucia was not sure who the accomplices were, based on her guess, she still confessed to three people, and believed that the other party was also a member of the organization.

"Very well, then, just like Abu, you pretend to be fine and continue to lurk.

But there is one thing, you have to screen the intelligence, some particularly important intelligence must find a way to intercept it, I will contact you regularly

When the time is right, you will return to the Western Regions."

Regardless of whether Lucia is sincerely willing or not, she has no way to turn back, so she can only do what Bao Ming wants.

Gu Ming is planning to use this method to instigate rebellion one by one among the members of the Holy Fire Sect sent to the Central Plains.

When the time is right, let them return to the Western Regions collectively.At that time, the Holy Fire Cult will inevitably fall into chaos

Next, Gu Ming entered another period of busy days.

Of course, no matter how busy you are, you will still find time to complete daily system tasks, writing, and other personal affairs.

In addition, Bai Suzhen also helped him share some tasks, such as arresting and investigating those aliens from the Western Regions, and confirming whether they are members of the Holy Fire Cult.

After a period of running-in, Bai Suzhen has accumulated some experience, coupled with her impressive magic power, she actually forced the other party to speak without going through Gu Ming.

Snake Princess also received good news in Yangzhou, and two candidates have been confirmed, as well as more than a dozen suspected candidates.

There are at least seven or eight thousand people from the Western Regions in and around Yangzhou City, which is the place with the largest number of people from the Western Regions in the Great Yan Dynasty except for the capital.

Therefore, Gu Ming listed it as a key investigation target.

Gu Ming would not be relieved if it was just the Shence Mansion who went to investigate. After all, although all the people in the Shence Mansion have the power to catch ghosts and subdue demons, they can hardly find a real master.

Snake Princess is different. With more than 1000 years of Taoism, if Master Baiyun, Shifang, and Bai Suzhen hadn't acted together last time, how could Gu Ming tame her?

In other words, with Gu Ming's current strength, he is not an opponent at all.

So, with her here, why is Gu Ming worried?

Another point is that She Ji is also good at mind control, so it is most suitable for her to deal with those people of the Holy Fire Cult.

In the afternoon of this day, a caravan from the Western Regions arrived outside the city of Yangzhou.

Not long after the caravan arrived, Snake Lady also arrived

She had a faint feeling in the city, so she followed her feeling all the way to find it, and finally confirmed that her feeling was right: Xiaoqing was in the caravan.

However, she could faintly sense Xiaoqing's breath, but she didn't find Xiaoqing's figure.

The only possibility is that Xiaoqing was sealed by someone, but the opponent's technique was not clever, otherwise Xiaoqing's aura would not be exposed, and she would sense it.

Of course, the mentality of looking for Xiaoqing this time is completely different from that of looking for Bai Suzhen last time.

The last time I looked for Bai Suzhen, I wanted Bai Suzhen to become her subordinate again and serve her.But this time looking for Xiaoqing, he wanted to make a great contribution.

Although she found Xiaoqing's aura, in order not to disturb the other party and prevent Xiaoqing from being caught in the wrong, Snake Ji kept observing in the dark and did not show her face.

The caravan consisted of about [-] people, brought a lot of goods, and temporarily camped outside the city to rest.

However, after Snake Ji's secret observation, two of them were very suspicious, obviously not serious businessmen, but just a cover-up.

The two had been sitting together chatting, so Snake Ji didn't know which guy sealed Xiaoqing, so she could only wait.

Finally, in the evening, one of the guys got up and left.

At this time, Snake finally confirmed that Xiaoqing was on the bearded man who stayed behind.

Once the goal is confirmed, the next thing will be much easier.

"snake"

"My God, where are there so many snakes?"

A group of merchants who were drinking and chatting suddenly became confused

"Don't be afraid, everyone, use torches, use torches quickly"

The bearded man seemed unwilling to show his strength, and instead of using spells, he directed a group of people to drive away the surrounding snakes with fire.

At this time, Snake Ji transformed into a Hu merchant and took advantage of the chaos to sneak into the crowd.

With her strength, the bearded man couldn't feel it at all. When she was yelling vigorously, she suddenly felt her body go numb, and the whole person suddenly lost consciousness

"call"

At this time, a strong wind suddenly blew up at the scene, which made everyone reel.

When the wind stopped, the bearded man had disappeared

"Say, where did you catch the green snake?"

"Why seal her up?"

The Snake kidnapped the bearded man to a secluded forest, and began to torture her to extract a confession.

The bearded man was quite tough at the beginning, but in the end he couldn't stand up to Snake Ji's various methods

According to his confession, he found Xiaoqing in a desert in the Western Regions.

At that time, Xiaoqing was seriously injured and had almost no strength to resist, and was finally put into a magic weapon by the bearded man and sealed.

And his ultimate goal is to gradually refine Xiaoqing, absorb its power, and sacrifice its body into a special magic weapon.

At that moment, Snake Ji almost couldn't hold back and smashed the bearded man to ashes.

Finally restrained.

Because, she wanted to leave the opportunity to Xiaoqing and let Xiaoqing do it herself.

But Xiaoqing is quite weak now, if she doesn't try to restore her vitality, it will have an irreparable impact on her future cultivation.

So, without any hesitation, Snake immediately flew to the capital with Xiaoqing and Big Beard
