Star Trace Gate

The afterglow of sunset fills the ground with rosy clouds.

Ren Ye stood in front of the fortune-telling stall, staring at the note in his hand. He was very excited, and even felt the excitement of a coquettish old widow meeting a single man.

The note read: "My dear brother, I am writing to you.

It has been several months since we last met in Shanghai, and I miss you very much. I have wanted to return to my hometown several times to meet up with my friends, but my sister Qingning is naughty by nature and will get into trouble if I am not careful.

As a brother, I am grateful for your trust, so I bring my sister to your side and teach her carefully, without any neglect.

Until recently, when Qingning entered the secret realm and was about to break through, I took advantage of my free time to do some private matters.

I never thought that when I followed my 'new boss' to Loushanguan City, I heard that my dear brother would also pass by here. I was very excited, so I asked someone to leave a message.

In Guanzhong, there are many 'friends' waiting for you. After seeing this message, please stay where you are and wait for someone to pick you up.

Big Brother, Little Wolf Warrior has left a message. "

In the note, Li Yan mentioned many things in the "real world", such as the last gathering in Shanghai, and Qingning leaving home to "study".

These things are definitely not something that people in the Star Gate can know, so there is naturally no possibility of falsification.

God will not abandon me!

This Li Yan is actually also in Funan County, and from what he said, he should have been hired by Daqian or Guanfeng, and is currently in Guancheng.

Damn, it turns out that if you keep thinking about it, there will be a response.

I've been fooling around everywhere using Li Yan's name every day, and now he's finally got to me.

My brother Wolf Warrior is at the fourth rank, with extremely strong combat power, and has already infiltrated the "enemy's interior". This way, things will have a definite turn for the better.

Ren Ye immediately put away the cloth strip, looked up at the old man at the fortune-telling stall and asked, "Who gave you this cloth strip?"

"A man who seeks the secrets of heaven. He gave me a thousand star sources and asked me to change the words on the hexagram banner." The old man answered truthfully: "Whoever is willing to pay is someone who is close to the secrets of heaven. Naturally, I will not refuse."

"What else did he say?" Ren Ye asked again.

"If I remove the words on the banner, he will show up in half an hour at the latest." After receiving the money, the old man provided good service.

Ren Ye also gave him another 500 Star Sources and whispered, "I can also pay the money, and I can also get close to Tianji. But when he appears later, you will do this..."

……

Not long after.

Ren Ye brought Erlang to an alley next to the city gate tower.

"Go back immediately and ask Fenglin and the others to disguise themselves and rush here." Ren Ye gently reminded him, "If the disguise charms are not enough, you can put on some makeup to cover your cheeks."

Erlang was a little worried: "Your Highness, can the words on that piece of cloth be trusted?"

"Don't worry, it's absolutely possible." Ren Ye said solemnly: "The southwest direction is full of search and arrest patrol soldiers. If we delay any longer, the Evernight Divine Ship may be exposed. Don't hesitate, go back and call for help immediately, I will stay here and wait."

"Okay, I'll go right away." Erlang nodded and quickly turned and left.

After Ren Ye watched him leave, he looked around.

About a quarter of an hour later, a handsome young man came to the fortune-telling stand and exchanged a few words with the old man.

After a while, he walked towards Ren Ye.

When the two met in the alley, they looked at each other cautiously.

After a long while, the handsome young man was the first to speak: "Your father will be caught in a crackdown on prostitution when he gets on the bus."

Ren was a little confused, thinking that he was right, and then asked, "What should I say?"

"How did my lord know Tang Feng?" the young man asked.

"You will be stripped of your pants if you enter the small garden." Ren Ye said decisively.

When the young man heard this, his eyes suddenly brightened: "Hello, I am the money-giving boy under the seat of the God of Wealth of the Fraud Chamber of Commerce - my name is Mo Youqian."

Isn't that just being poor?

Ren was slightly stunned, and clasped his fists and said, "My wolf brother is in the pass?"

"That's right." The young man nodded.

"Tell me, what's going on?" Ren Ye asked immediately.

In the alley, the two exchanged secret signals and began to communicate quickly.

……

Loushan Pass, in a wing room on the left side of the city gate.

Li Yan sat at the Eight Immortals Table and whispered, "How long has Xiao Mo been gone?"

"It's almost two hours." A feminine-looking boy who was giving out money replied softly.

Li Yan held his chin up and said solemnly, "If we can secretly help King Huai leave, this is definitely the best strategy. But if the matter is exposed, we must also prepare for the worst."

The feminine boy was a little curious: "Master, I don't quite understand, what kind of relationship do you have with King Huai that made you give up the Azure Dragon Letter...?"

Li Yan looked up at him and said helplessly, "He is the biological brother of that little devil. What do you think is our connection?"

The feminine boy was stunned upon hearing this, and couldn't believe it: "Oh, so he is Qingning's elder brother?! If you had told me earlier, I would have died for him..."

Li Yan looked at him speechlessly and said, "Just bear with it for now and try not to die. I'm in need of someone else."

"Master, if you have a chance, please introduce me to King Huai..." the feminine boy replied respectfully.

Li Yan stood up slowly and walked around the room with his hands behind his back: "We must be prepared for both situations. If Xu Ersan and General Wang summon me later, the three of you will follow my instructions and wait for the opportunity to act."

"As ordered."

The three nodded in response.

……

About a quarter of an hour later.

In the county town, in the alley next to the city gate tower.

Ren Ye looked at Mo Youqian, frowned and asked, "So, you are Guanfeng's people, and you came here to cooperate with Wang Shantang and others?"

"We don't know the Guan Feng you mentioned. But the person who led us here is indeed called Xu Ersan." Mo Youqian replied.

"That's right. It was Xu Ersan who escorted Guan Feng away. The fact that he can come here shows that Guan Feng has tried his best." Ren also muttered softly: "How many high-level magical powers are there in the city gate?"

"There are only about twenty of us, but there should be more than this group." Mo Youqian replied, "There are strange supernatural powers walking around the room where we are. It is roughly estimated that there are at least seventy or eighty third-grade supernatural powers. Oh, by the way, from what Xu Ersan said, the leaders of several families have not arrived yet."

"Damn, this is quite a scene." Ren Ye cursed and then asked softly, "Then how did my wolf brother arrange it? What did he think?"

"Leave secretly." Mo Youqian replied truthfully: "Most of the supernatural powers in the city are strangers, and we found that many of them are strangers. After all your friends have arrived, put on the clothes I gave you, and I will lead you in, and then the God of Wealth will meet you on the inside. After entering the city, we will find a way to sneak out from the back door."

"Is it possible?" Ren Ye asked.

"We have just followed Xu Ersan into the city gate, and the captain guarding the gate knew me." Mo Youqian replied: "He even greeted me when he came out. As long as you pretend to be people from the martial arts world who are here to help, they shouldn't think too much. After all, there are many strange people with magical powers in the city gate, and they are all moving around, so they can't keep an eye on them all."

"Okay, let's do it." Ren Ye trusted Li Yan in his heart, and there was nothing wrong with the other party's plan, so he agreed immediately.

After a while, Erlang arrived here with his beloved concubine, Lao Liu, Fenglin and Xu Bangzi.

After the two sides met, they exchanged a few simple greetings, then found a secluded place and put on loose black robes.

When Mo Youqian saw everyone had changed their clothes, he reminded them, "No matter what happens later, don't say anything. Just let me handle it."

"Okay." Ren nodded and asked boldly, "Brother, can you tell me what rank you are?"

"In the Fraud Chamber of Commerce, only those who have reached the third rank are eligible to follow the God of Wealth." Mo Youqian smiled and replied, "I started earlier than you, so I have already reached the peak of the third rank."

Look at Brother Wolf's situation. Not only are his subordinates of high rank, but they also call him "Master" all the time.

"Excuse me, when did you follow Brother Wolf?" Ren Ye asked.

"About seven or eight years ago." Mo Youqian replied.

Ren was also stunned after hearing this: "I remember that seven or eight years ago, Brother Wolf was trapped in Qingliang Mansion?"

When Mo Youqian heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched immediately: "Yes, he disappeared on the fourth day after I was assigned to Wolf Lord. Then I waited for him for seven or eight years, and he only showed up a few months ago. I thought I could learn a lot from Wolf Lord and get promoted smoothly, but who would have thought... I only watched the Temple of the God of Wealth for seven or eight years."

"Brother, you are in a bit of a pity."

"This is not the worst. The worst is that before I came here, Master Wolf told me that he knew some people in the Daqian Tianjian Division, and after getting the Azure Dragon Slip, he could also help me get a necessary item for entering the fourth level." Mo Youqian said this with tears in his eyes: "Then he met you, and then he gave up the Azure Dragon Slip and was ready to turn against the Tianjian Division..."

“……!” Ren was speechless.

Old Liu patted Mo Youqian's shoulder distressedly and said, "Brother, you are so unlucky! Why don't you consider going to the temple to find a nun to see?"

As everyone was walking and chatting, they suddenly saw a commotion on the long street.

Many people shouted, "They are going to kill people!"

"The government has arrested many people and is going to execute them at the gate of the city."

"Look, look, those soldiers have captured so many people and taken them away, and there's even a prison van!"

"...!"

In just a moment, the long street was suddenly like a boiling pot, with many people chasing each other towards the city gate tower.

Ren also frowned and immediately said, "Let's go and take a look."

The group quickly came to the edge of the long street, looked up, and saw thousands of people rushing here.

In front of the city gate tower, hundreds of soldiers were dragging some ordinary-looking civilians, beating and driving them away with whips, while urging them, "Be quiet and don't make any noise, or I'll chop you off right now."

"What is this for?" Old Liu was puzzled.

Ren Ye's pupils shrank sharply: "Why are you arresting civilians?!"

……

Loushan Pass, inside the watchtower.

An old man stood with his hands behind his back and asked Wang Shantang, "There are many gangsters with blood on their hands in this city. Why do you only arrest civilians?"

Wang Shantang drank his tea and replied calmly, "To ordinary people, people with supernatural powers are great figures that are out of reach. They are not in the same class. Therefore, no matter how many supernatural powers die, the people will not be terrified, nor will they hate King Huai to the bone. Only by killing people like them will they be afraid and help you find someone."

When everyone heard this, they were silent.

"Besides, there are many people with supernatural powers in the city who have heard the news and have come here. They are all familiar with the supernatural powers we have recruited, or have close relations with them." Wang Shantang said quietly, "This group of people has the ability to fight back. If we make a big fuss, they might end up in a ditch. Civilians are much better off. Whether it's raining or thundering, no matter how much hatred they have in their hearts, they can only endure it..."

After saying this, Wang Shantang slowly stood up, put his hands behind his back and asked, "How many people are still not here?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a young man in a black robe from the Tianjian Division walked in and said with a fist: "Nanhe Sect Master - Li Baishou, Tianquan Peak - Chishui Niangniang and others are all here."

Wang Shantang stood up and waved his hand, saying, "Let the county magistrate, county magistrate and others in the county government come here to listen to the order. We set the stage, haha, but the bad guys have to be done by them. Officials from Southern Xinjiang killing civilians from Southern Xinjiang, this is interesting...!"
