Hou Xiaowu didn't dare to make a statement. At least he didn't dare to alarm others before making a choice.

He "locked" himself in a secret room, thought hard, and before he knew it, half a day passed.

It was not until someone contacted him with a message jade slip that he woke up from his petrified state, looked at the hourglass, judged the time, and sighed.

"It's been wasted half a day in a moment."

The key is that he still did not find the balance point between the two bottles of poison and found vitality.

The person who was sent to the message was his subordinate. Today he was going to check a few places where the garbage was piled up.

"Well, go out and have a walk to see if you can get inspiration."

Hou Xiaowu walked out of the secret room and was a little absent-minded when walking. On the way, he met several acquaintances to say hello to him, but he didn't respond immediately, and seemed very slow.

But only he knew that he was not attentive to do other things now, was absent-minded, and was thinking uncontrollably about how to find vitality.

Until the three garbage dumps were inspected, Hou Xiaowu found that there was no inspiration, so he simply sat in the corner, took out a pot of wine and started drinking.

I'm so worried! I don't know what to do.

Hou Xiaowu couldn't communicate with others or exchange opinions, not to mention that he felt that others could not give advice.

After thinking for a long time, he considered going to the sect leader to report directly and telling what happened to him. This consideration was repeated dozens of times. Every time he thought that this would be OK. The sect would protect him, but what followed was that he felt that the sect would not protect him, and he was very unsure.

Reporting that person to the sect will not work. At most, what the sect can do is to call him and that person over, and the sect leader should be a good friend and let the person shake hands with him.

The sect could not allow that man to make a self-demon oath, nor could it allow him to escape from Qizhen Pavilion.

So even if you shake hands and make peace, the person can still have many ways to make himself unhealthy afterwards.

If the method of reporting is ruled out, the rest are just three methods.

The first is that he did not say anything, and he escaped from Qizhen Pavilion without knowing it. But even if he did this, he would have broken away from Qizhen Pavilion. He was extremely unwilling to leave Qizhen Pavilion just like this. After all, once he left, the position he had finally obtained would become a void. The status of this deacon was exchanged for countless things to honor several outer elders. He would never want to leave in shame.

What's more, after leaving Qizhen Pavilion, you may be designated as a traitor and be hunted by Qizhen Pavilion. Not to mention that that person is likely to send someone to chase him.

So he almost eliminated this method.

The second method is to take a gamble. He ignores the tasks assigned by the other party, and then waits for the other party to take revenge. If the other party does not take him seriously and disdains to retaliate against him, he will be able to escape.

But he felt that the possibility of the other party taking him as a fart was too low, so this method could not be used.

The third method is to do the opposite. Since he can't find a helper in Qizhen Pavilion, he will go outside and find a strong man to deal with that person.

Some people have used similar methods, and more than one person has done this in history. Of course, he did not rely on connections or rewards to find strong men outside. He lacked both of them and could not impress the strong men outside, but on intelligence.

That is to say, introduce the characteristics of hunting targets to the strong men outside. The target must be a fat sheep. As long as the strong men outside kill the fat sheep, they can get unimaginable benefits.

So now, he feels that only this method can be used to try it out.

The reason why he can only try is that such a strong man is difficult to find. And once this strong man fails, he will be 100% finished and will be killed by that person, and his hope of survival is zero.

"Can't you really find another way to get vitality?" Hou Xiaowu lamented in his heart, held up the remaining half of the wine pot and drank the spirits inside in one sip.

After drinking, Hou Xiaowu was still a little embarrassed, as if a big stone was pressing into his heart, and outsiders could see his strangeness.

On the way back, Hou Xiaowu happened to meet someone again, who was one of his backers, Elder Kong.

Fortunately, he was not completely distracted this time. After discovering the other party, he quickly squeezed out his smile and bowed his hands and said respectfully: "Greetings to Elder Kong."

"What's wrong with you? What's wrong with you? "Elder Kong asked curiously.

Based on his understanding of Hou Xiaowu, this person is like a monkey, and even if he is not profitable, he will be in good spirits. It is so rare that he looks listless like now.

"It's...it's a matter of cultivation." Hou Xiaowu sighed, only to find this excuse.

"Come and ask me if you have time, don't think about it alone. I can teach you some experience in cultivation." After saying that, Elder Kong left with a smile.

Hou Xiaowu secretly complained to himself. If the other party has time, he can give him guidance and teaching him now. The reason why he didn't do that was to let him visit him when he had time was very clear, and he asked him to bring the "things" so that the other party would give him no hesitation to give advice.

Hou Xiaowu continued to move forward. He met the other party just now, and now he found that he didn't even want to ask for help from the other party. In other words, his subconscious was clear about his affairs and could not let others in Qizhen Pavilion know.

On the way back, he met several outer disciples. Hou Xiaowu once again enjoyed the taste of being treated respectfully. When he encountered this phenomenon before, he would not have any trouble in his heart, but this time, Hou Xiaowu thought of his status. It is precisely because of his current status that he can be treated with courtesy.

"Damn it, I can't abandon my current status!"

At this moment, Hou Xiaowu directly eliminated the first method he had thought of before.

He was unwilling to leave Qizhen Pavilion. After suffering in the outer door for so many years, he finally gained his current status. He gave up and would have nothing!

After making up this decision, Hou Xiaowu found that he had only one method left to deal with the mysterious Nascent Soul cultivator. That is to go to the outside world to find a strong man to deal with that person.

However, so far, I still feel that this method is unreliable and I don’t have the courage to do this.

He returned to his residence almost in a daze all the way, and Hou Xiaowu plunged into the secret room again.

He was unwilling to give up and still wanted to win a glimmer of hope.

Unexpectedly, he thought hard in the secret room, but after only an hour, he was upset and even grabbed a set of tea sets next to him and broke them.

I couldn't think of a solution anymore, and I felt extremely irritated inside, even if I forced myself to calm down.

By this time, Hou Xiaowu knew that there was no luck to talk about. He knew himself. If he had a way, he would definitely be able to think about it when he was alone, or at least he could think of it.

But so far, there is no trace of it.

"There is no other way. It won't work by contacting the strong outsiders to deal with that person. The identity of that person is still hidden. Unless I arrange for the strong outsiders to attack him when I meet him, he will not be fooled easily, and he is very likely to escape. I will definitely die at that time."

"At least the probability of death is not that high if you choose to do something for him."

Hou Xiaowu Sutra

After the ideological struggle, I still chose to complete the task assigned by that person.

There are only six days left, and it is time to start the mission.

The next day, Hou Xiaowu entered the inner gate and was stopped in front of the "Spy Building" commonly known as the "Spy Building" by the monks inside.

The Spy Building is a large building with five floors. Only the first floor has an entrance and exit. The other four floors are completely enclosed and provide air, light and comfortable temperatures by the operation of the internal formation.

It is here that Qizhen Pavilion handles most of the information.

In addition to the information that needs to be discussed by the sect leader or top-level senior management, other information will be summarized here first, and then most of it will be directly dealt with by the people inside. Only a small number of people inside will give opinions and suggestions and submit them to people with higher status for review and decisions.

The person in charge here is Gu Dahui, a deputy sect leader of Qizhen Pavilion. This person has the strength of the late stage of the Nascent Soul Realm and is from the lineage of the sect leader Su Qianchou. He can be said to be the direct member of the sect leader.

Gu Dahui is the leader, and the eight judges are below, followed by the thirty-two secret spies.

The eight judges are specifically responsible for intelligence processing.

You should know that as a super sect, Qizhen Pavilion will definitely send a lot of people to various parts of the spiritual world. They either actively collect some information or focus on the area responsible. When they find something happening in the area, they will report the information. So every day, there is a lot of information on this area.

In addition, Qizhen Pavilion is different from the other eleven super sects. Qizhen Pavilion is mainly engaged in business. One of the main business is to provide various information to customers. Since it is to provide it, Qizhen Pavilion must have the information in this area. However, the information cannot fall from the sky, and it still requires humans to spy and obtain it. This part of the information will not be handed over to the customers directly. It will also be reported to the "Spy Building" and handled by people.

The eight judges do these things. Most of the information is at the ordinary level. They will read it through and then hand it over to their subordinates for processing, or handle it at will. A small part of the information is more important, so they will summarize it, give it their opinions, and report it to Gu Dahui.

The judges can judge cases and life and death, while the eight of them can judge whether an information is valuable.

As for the thirty-two secret spies, they are the ace monks who spy on intelligence in Qizhen Pavilion. There are many secret spies in Qizhen Pavilion, and these thirty-two people are the most powerful.

Gu Dahui, the eight judges and the thirty-two secret spies, is the top figure in the "Spy Building".

Even if Hou Xiaowu showed his identity here, he was still not qualified to meet the spy, let alone the judge.

No surprise, no matter how good Hou Xiaowu was, the guards would not buy it. Even if Hou Xiaowu took out the spirit stone and wanted to bribe the other party, the guards refused directly, saying that he would not be allowed to enter the building without receiving the notification.

Hou Xiaowu originally planned to go in and find a secret spy he knew, and then let the other party make a match to let him know a judge, but he didn't expect that the first level would end before it even began.

He reported the spy's name, but the guard did not agree with it and asked him to either have documents or be able to contact the other party.

"It's really a tight guard."

Hou Xiaowu left and returned to the outer gate to find Elder Xu. Elder Xu is also one of his backers.

The secret spy he knew entered Qizhen Pavilion in the same year as him. Although he was not the same master, his early relationship in his practice was pretty good. Most of the outer disciples had to join him. At that time, they were from the same group. After that, they had different developments and fewer contacts.

Elder Xu is the uncle of the spy. Only by looking for Elder Xu can he contact the other party as quickly and conveniently as possible.
