On the Importance of Chinese Characters

Wu Jiu's report directly made Hallmaster Batang stand up from his seat in shock. If Gao Xi is really a spy, this matter would be too big.

Everyone in the inspection hall, from the elders and deacons to the guards and attendants, all of them have been examined by the Law Enforcement Hall to dig into the ground. There are spies in such a place!

Gao Xi's appearance, no matter because the enemy is too cunning or there are traitors in the palace, is a shocking thing.Because it is possible to forge an identity that cannot be found by the Law Enforcement Hall, such a force must not take it easy. It is not a good thing for Baopu Palace to have such an enemy in the dark.

And if there is a traitor in the palace, it will be even more terrifying. If he can help Gao Xi enter the inspection hall, this person must have a high status.That Gao Xi hasn't missed any clues in the inspection hall for so many years, he is absolutely unable to do it alone.

Hall Master Batang didn't want to take the matter so seriously, he would rather that Gao Xi cooperated like this because he knew he was wrong, and he hoped that the disappearance of that small stone was just a coincidence.

However, in the end things backfired.

The relationship is very important, the Hall Master of Batang let out all his confidantes, and focused on two places, one is the gathering place of the waiters in the Inspection Hall, and the other is the Daji Restaurant in the small town under Baopu Palace.

And as more and more investigation results are reported back, more and more evidence proves one thing——

Gao Xi is indeed a nail buried in the palace by others.

"Master, when the brothers went there, they found that a waiter at the Daji Restaurant had disappeared after quitting his job this morning, and the beastman who took care of the horses in the restaurant also left with him. The waiter was Gao Xi Every time I go there, I always come to wait on him, Gaoxi has a Yitian crocodile, and the person who takes care of it is the beastkeeper."

Gao Xi had just been arrested in the morning, and not long after, two people from the Daji Restaurant disappeared. It was clear that there was a problem, and they walked so swaggeringly, without concealing it, which showed one thing—Gao Xi had probably been given up. up.

"It's really crisp and neat." Hallmaster Batang felt a chill in his heart, such a nail that could be buried in the inspection hall, but with such a little trouble, it was so easily discarded.

Is it because of caution, or...too many chips in hand?

"Go, send this to Jiutang." The master of Batang handed the attention stone with the key of spiritual consciousness to the confidant next to him. Those who do their business can't trust the sound transmission stone.

Jiutang is the best at interrogation in the entire Law Enforcement Palace. The leader of Jiutang who read the letter from Batang didn't dare to delay, so he hurriedly brought Gao Xi for interrogation.

It turned out that not only this time, but even the rumors about the addition of an inspection elder in the inspection hall a few years ago were released by Gao Xi, with the purpose of inspecting the position of elder.

Back then, the tasks of the inspection hall of Baopu Palace gradually increased, and the existing manpower was really a little tight.Gao Xi then released rumors that the palace intends to add an inspection elder. Since the rumors came out, the deacons of the inspection hall have been more dedicated to making progress.Therefore, Elder Xiao and the others did not stop the spread of rumors, but were really seduced by them.

Gao Xi has arranged for this for several years, but he didn't want to break out of Zhuang Yunzhou halfway, so that several years of hard work went to waste.But Gao Xi didn't give up, because Zhuang Yunzhou was too young, he didn't think that Baopu Palace put him into Tuoyuan Palace to really let him inspect the elders, but he came here to be gilded.

How could such a person be able to convince the crowd? He released these rumors to sow discord between the deacon and Zhuang Yunzhou.It was also Gao Xi's handwriting that no one sent Yuanbao to Yunzhou in Zhuangyuan all day long.

How can such an elder with no real talents, stigma, and rejection by all the deacons be able to secure his position?Even if Tuoyuan Palace is willing to offer a vain elder, all the disciples will have doubts about the credibility of Tuoyuan Palace. This is something that shakes the foundation.

Unfortunately, Gao Xi got one thing wrong.That is, Zhuang Yunzhou did acquire this position by relying on his real talents, and even showed the talent that shocked the three elders, so the rumors aroused Elder Xiao's anger as soon as they came out.

Due to the short time, the scope of the rumors is still small, and there are not many people who talk about it. After chasing the past one by one, they caught Gao Xi's tail. If the rumors are allowed to spread more widely, the source will really disappear. disappeared.

Zhuang Yunzhou didn't know what happened in the Hall of Law Enforcement, and returned to Shouzhuo Peak after finishing his work in the Inspection Hall.Fang Qiling estimated the time when he would return home and had someone arrange the dishes, and as soon as they were set up in the courtyard, he saw someone walking in from the door, with a smile on his face when he wanted to.

Zhuang Yunzhou paused, although he still had a grudge against what happened last night, but looking at this face, he couldn't get angry anymore, so he could only smile back to express his reconciliation.

Fang Qiling's eyes lit up all of a sudden, and he said more attentively after contacting the alarm: "Yunzhou, I have someone cook your favorite dish. You have worked hard all day, and there is hot soup on the top of the mountain. After eating, it's just right Go and get tired."

Zhuang Yunzhou sat down at the table: "The soup pool is not used. I will return to the peak after dinner. I will return at the end of a few days. I don't know how Master's injury is now."

When Fang Qiling heard this, his expression became a little strange: "Yunzhou, haven't you checked your sound transmission stone yet?"

"Not yet. What's the matter?"

The inspection hall is a secret place, and the sound transmission stone cannot be used due to the influence of the formation, and special items are required to communicate in the hall.So Zhuang Yunzhou put the sound transmission stone in the storage bag. Anyway, if there is something really important, there will be a waiter to come

"Look first."

Zhuang Yunzhou took out the sound transmission stone and swept it away, and was shocked by the information inside: "..."

Fang Qiling saw his sudden change of expression in his eyes, and looked at him sideways: "Master and uncle have spent so many years, we should be more sensible as juniors. In the past few days, we have wronged us in Yunzhou to stay with me for a while. I'm so clumsy." I don't know if he will agree to form a contract with Yunzhou now?

Fang Qiling looked at Zhuang Yunzhou's handsome face, and his heart beat a little faster.

Zhuang Yunzhou rubbed the sound-transmitting stone in his hands, lowered his eyes and thought to himself: Uncle Jingbo made a contract with his master within a day, and he and Qiling have confirmed their relationship for more than a month, and the elders of both parties have known about it. Isn't it time to formalize the contract?

But... Zhuang Yunzhou remembered what Fang Qiling did yesterday, paused, raised his head and said, "That's it, then ask someone to prepare a guest room for me."

"Guest room?" Fang Qiling was dumbfounded, "Won't Yunzhou come with me?"

Zhuang Yunzhou glanced at him and smiled lightly: "Of course I won't be with you, I don't want to be thrown into the cold pool again."

In one sentence, Fang Qiling was extremely wronged: "I am doing it for your own good, you are going to take office today!"

Zhuang Yunzhou picked up the teapot and poured himself a glass of water, wondering: "What does my taking office have to do with you throwing me into the cold pond?"

Fang Qiling looked at him fixedly: "Baby, do you not know your own charm, or do you not have confidence in my ability? How can you do it overnight? With your alluring appearance, I wish I could crush you on the couch. Ruthless..."

"Ahem!" Zhuang Yunzhou choked on his undisguised words, and the sound of coughing blocked the other party's increasingly explicit words.After all, he was not as thick-skinned as the other party, so he could only change the subject abruptly, saying, "Hurry up and eat!"

Looking at his red ears, Fang Qiling felt his heart itching unbearably, Qisi, who had been suppressed for a long time, was aroused again, couldn't help but leaned closer and nibbled on his earlobe, and said in a hoarse voice: "Why don't you ask for leave tomorrow How are you?"

"What are you doing on leave?"

A cold male voice sounded behind him, and before Fang Qiling could react, he laughed and said, "Of course I did..." Zhuang Yunzhou interrupted him before he finished speaking.

"Master, why are you here?"

Fang Qiling froze for a moment, and his brain full of thoughts realized that the person who spoke just now was not Yunzhou, but Yangming.Thinking of Yangming's cold eyes in the past, beads of sweat burst out all at once.

Standing up from the chair in a hurry, Fang Qiling saluted respectfully: "I have seen the uncle, the master."

Yangming originally wanted to ignore him with a cold face, but thinking that he is Jingbo's apprentice after all, and he will be his apprentice in the future, he still responded with dignity: "Sit down."

"Did something happen?" Zhuang Yunzhou asked.

It was Jing Bo who answered: "Something went wrong in the palace."

Fang Qiling was keenly aware of something immediately: "But Gao Xi? Are you sure?"

Jing Bo nodded.

"Gao Xi? What's wrong with Deacon Gao?" Zhuang Yunzhou raised his eyebrows in surprise. He has no foundation in Tuoyuan Palace. When the Law Enforcement Hall came to investigate, no one tipped him off, so Zhuang Yunzhou didn't know about it at all. .

"Gao Xi spread rumors to slander you in the palace, trying to provoke the dissatisfaction of the deacon of the inspection hall and the disciples in the palace, and drive you out of the position of elder." Fang Qiling briefly explained, "But now that Master has been alarmed, it is It shows that Gao Xi's problems are not limited to these."

Yangming said, "I came here this time to ask you for an original treasure - an original treasure that can distinguish between true and false. I remember you said that there is such a treasure in the inheritance of Master Penggui." Yuanbao."

"Wait a moment, Master." Yang Ming asked for this, and Zhuang Yunzhou guessed somewhat, probably this Gao Deacon is a hard stubble, so he took out the third-level innate 'Cong' character source treasure to Yang Ming, "here Meiyuanbao allows the holder to hear whether the other party's words are true, that is to say, the person under trial must use his tongue to speak."

Yangming took it over: "It will be returned to you in a few days."

"If the Palace of Law Enforcement has this source treasure in the future, it will be even more powerful." After Yang Ming and Jing Bo left, Fang Qiling sat down again and said with a smile, "I'm afraid that the boys in Jiutang will see this source treasure." Le crazy. With it, the interrogation is much easier."

Zhuang Yunzhou shook his head: "This is not the most suitable source technique. If you find the word 'sincerity' in the future, it will be the real interrogation weapon." In "Shuowen", it is explained that sincerity means being faithful and not deceiving, and later extended to reality.

It's a pity that he hasn't seen this word yet.

Zhuang Yunzhou used the word 'cheng' in Chinese, and Fang Qiling couldn't help showing a puzzled expression, so Zhuang Yunzhou explained to him the meaning of the word 'cheng'.

"You mean, this origin technique can make other people tell the truth unconsciously and fully express their true feelings?" Fang Qiling asked with a weird look on his face.

Zhuang Yunzhou looked at him suspiciously: "Yes, what's wrong?"

"Have you heard of the Sharks?"
