"The story is good. But what does it have to do with you?"

Du Hong hurriedly said, "Uncle loves me the most! Not only do he give me some elixirs every year, he also gives me a precious talisman to save his life by descending spirit talismans. Even the sword art inheritance he learned from immortals has been passed on to me. Over the years, I have been collecting resources and exchanged many treasures from my uncle. Among the gifts to your lord, the talismans and elixirs are all...my private collections!"

At the end of his speech, he almost burst into tears and felt extremely aggrieved.

But he kept his mouth shut and was still adding weight to himself: "Lord, you must know how rare these immortal resources are! With these things, the speed of martial arts practice can increase countless times. This secret channel is really worth more than the Great River Channel!"

"Well, the value is quite good, it's worth my move." Yan Li nodded and said, "How much have you learned about your immortal swordsmanship? How many tricks can you use to show me how?"

Du Hong did not dare to disobey, so he walked into the yard, drew out his sword, and performed a few sword techniques.

I saw the clear light flowing on his long sword, like the rippling waves under the moon, reflecting the sky and cloud shadows; the sword is like clouds walking in the air, floating on the water, densely packed with a unique artistic conception of floating with the waves.

Of course, artistic conception is Yan Li's deduction, and Du Hong is not able to do this yet. Otherwise, he would not be stuck at the peak of skin tempering.

After seeing just three or five moves, Yan Li had already received Guiyun's voice transmission in her ears and knew the origin of this set of inheritance.

He laughed loudly and said, "Hahaha, I tell you where is the inheritance? It turns out to be the "Qingping Sword Technique" of Jinxiu Palace. It's a real surprise!"

Han Xi next to him also lit up his eyes: Jinxiu Palace, it is indeed a big fish!

Jinxiu Palace.

The woman who betrayed King Shangwu and colluded with the Jade Emperor Temple, and made Ji Dongling's bloodline bullied for a hundred years came from this sect.

And Yan Li's mind had more thoughts in an instant - the vast number of people are like weaving brocades, and the years are like shuttles. So I want to explain this way?

"Ha, I originally wanted to catch a five-flowered python, but I didn't expect a brocade fish came. Whether it was a pot of soup, it was all a pot of soup." Yan Li thought.

Of course, he would not say this to anyone. The goal was slightly biased, but in terms of overall strategy and tactics, there was no change.

Du Hong was even more shocked at this time.

No one has ever recognized these sword techniques he learned. I am afraid that no one except his uncle Yu Changhe will know its specific origin. And the lord Master Yan actually recognized it at a glance!

The lord is indeed unfathomable!

Du Hong finally let go of his trembling heart. Don’t look at his hoarseness when he knelt on the ground and shouted for help before, and he was sincere. In fact, he had no confidence in whether "Master Yan" could block Zou Tong's murderous intent.

Who is Zou Tong? He is the innate master, the helm leader of the Hengjiang Gang, and Du Hong's immediate boss!

Unless he has been hiding in the wind and fire and cannot go out, the murder will be in danger. And he kneels down and asks for help, which is just a matter of this. Even so, he is still afraid that Zou Tong will come to ask for someone - can his cheap lord stop Zou's old man?

However, this is the only life-saving straw, and he has no other choice.

But now it seems...it's quite reliable!

The subtle changes in his expression were taken into consideration by Yan Li.

"What, do you doubt that I can save your ability?" Yan Li sneered.

"I dare not..." Du Hong quickly shrank his neck and bent over. What he said today is more than the previous two decades combined.

"Your secret channel is quite satisfying to me." Yan Li said by himself, "Well, let you see my methods - as long as you are obedient, not only will Zou Tong not be able to kill you, but you can also sit in the seat of the deputy helm leader of Jianchuan."

When this playboy becomes the deputy helm leader, can those noble and pure and innocent palace maids and monks still maintain their current coldness and nobleness?

"Ha?" Du Hong, who was still timid at the last moment, opened his eyes widened the next moment, his mouth grew bigger, and his face was full of disbelief.

"How is this possible? I am the deputy helm leader? Even if Zou Tonggaba dies, that chair won't be my turn!" Du Hong thought to himself.

"What you think is right is to let Zou Tong die." Yan Li said with a stern look, "It's a pity that your cultivation and people's expectations are too low. The rudder leader must have no hope. The deputy rudder leader should be fine. If you don't even have this status, how can your uncle's channel be used for me?"

Du Hong thought, isn't that the case? If Zou Tong doesn't die, his life will not be saved. If he has been hiding in Fenghuobao, how can he exchange resources for the main bus? But how can such an incredible thing be done? Could it be...

Du Hong became more and more excited as he thought about it. All the fear and trembling just now disappeared, and his eyes lit up: "Lord is indeed mighty! It turns out that you can invite the ancestor of the Han family to be Zou Tong!"

"Idiot. If Zou Tong died inexplicably, you are the number one suspect. Where can you get the chance to get to power? This ripe peach must have been picked by someone else!" Yan Li said contemptly, "Shut up your mouth and listen to me."

"Yes, yes." Du Hong was silent.

Of course, the weather was not cold at all at this time. In the afternoon of early autumn, the sun was warm and refreshing.

Yan Li was still sitting at the stone table, and Han Xi and Gui Yun also found a comfortable stone pier.

Seeing this, Du Hong immediately walked forward with a slut, bowed and lit the small red mud stove, and skillfully cooked a pot of fragrant tea.

Yan Li nodded and signaled him to sit down.

The playboy also began to become familiar with Yan Li's rules. He didn't say nonsense and sat at the stone table like a human being.

Yan Li sipped a mouthful of fragrant tea, and then said an extremely terrifying sentence in a leisurely tone:

"Zou Tong intends to rebel against the gang and become independent."

"ah?"

"ha?"

Two surprises were heard at the same time.

One is Du Hong, and this sentence made his thinking blank instantly, feeling quite dizzy.

The other is Han Xi. He is increasingly unable to keep up with Uncle Li’s ideas. He was also talking before that Zou Tong wanted to kill Du Hong as a scapegoat and to keep the rudder's position. Why did this innate rudder master want to rebel and become independent when he turned around?

"Sobert." Yan Li waved his hand and shook in front of the two of them, "Drink a little tea to make your brain work normally, and listen carefully to every word I say."

Han Xi suddenly stopped and replied to the cold image of a young master. Du Hong rubbed his head and nodded with a smile, signaling his lord, please tell me.

"This is also a simple truth." Yan Li said, "The Hengjiang Gang urgently needs the Dajiang Waterway, there is no doubt about it. But what about after obtaining the Dajiang Waterway?

"The sphere of influence of the Hengjiang Gang is equivalent to double. Jianchuan City will transform from the cargo distribution center at the end of the route into the center of the overall channel, becoming the most important stronghold. It connects the Western Qin Ji River upwards and overlooks the long river. Whoever sits here will hold the center of the Hengjiang Gang's power. In other words, the branch rudder of the Hengjiang Gang will transform from a warehouse manager at the end of the channel into a real power figure among the gangs, second only to the leader of the gang."

Du Honglian blinked a few times and nodded in agreement. He grew up in the Hengjiang Gang since he was a child, and he still had some common sense. After the situation was pointed out, he naturally understood it.

"The situation of Dongsha Gang is the same, but they are prepared for it. Fu Jingshui, the helm leader of Dongsha Gang, is the younger brother of Fu Jingyang, and is originally the second-person of the gang. He has no status change among them. But what about Zou Tong?" Yan Li continued,

"Zou Tong was originally a warehouse manager who was squeezed out by the center and was in a corner. How could all the big men of the Hengjiang Gang sit and see him hold the power? Therefore, if Zou Tong gets the Dajiang Channel, his position will be unstable, and even more enemies."

The two young people here have been struggling around the world, and when they hear this, they can hear some meaning. They didn’t think of these before, because their eyes were not lofty enough; after someone pointed it out, they naturally knew it clearly.

Yan Li paused, and waited for the two of them to figure it out before continuing: "So, for Zou Tong, if you get the channel and lose the channel, his status is unstable. The best way is of course to maintain it as it is. So, he needs you, the scapegoat, if you die, the Han family's alliance breaks the deadlock, and the Dajiang Channel flies. His biggest mistake for Zou Tong is that he is improper in employing people, but he is still the leader of Jianchuan."

Du Hong took a deep breath and found that he was so innocent. But... after all, Zou Tong seemed to have no intention of rebeling the gang?

"The problem now is that you won't die." Yan Li said calmly, "If you are not dead, Zou Tong will not have a suitable scapegoat. He will either bear the responsibility of losing the Dajiang River or wait for someone to pick peaches. Advancing and retreating are dead ends, and he is worried that you will fight back. Do he have any other choice besides the rebel gang?"

Du Hong and Han Xi opened their mouths again and finally understood: Yes, Zou Tong had no choice!

Zou Tong planned to rebel and resign himself.

Because he has only one way to survive.

"The question now is: Du Hong, are you planning to help Zou Tong with death, or let him rebel against the gang?" Yan Li said with a smile.

"Lord, don't joke with the little ones. You are wise, Zou Tong is planning to rebel against the gang!" Du Hong said cautiously, "But... there seems to be no evidence..."

"We have evidence!" Yan Li smiled, "The giant clams in the East China Sea, snakes and insects in the southern border, five-color sand, moon grass, and these precious resources of Dongqi and Nanchu are the evidence!"

——…—

Just as Yan Li and Du Hong were plotting against the Hengjiang Gang, someone was also engaged in another conspiracy.

Jianchuan North Pier, Dongsha Gang Staff.

In the small courtyard with green mountains, two evil monks, old and young, were meditating and cultivating their qi, and heard someone ringing a copper bell outside the door.

Immediately afterwards, a member of the Dongsha Gang walked into the garden tremblingly, put down a roll of thick paper at the door of the room, and knelt down and said, "Report to the two immortal masters: The terrain map you want has been collected. The young one will leave."

After he said that, he stood up and ran away from the courtyard.

As Fu Jingshui's confidant, he knew that if he was not lucky, he would become a walking zombie!

A gust of cold wind pushed open the door, wrapped the scroll into the room, and closed the door tightly again.

The whole process looked like the door opened by itself, and the roll of thick paper floated up and flew in by itself. The door creaked and closed again, and it looked like a haunted person!

Of course, the two monks in the room would not have any psychological burden.

The old Taoist priest smiled and opened the scroll with a cold look. He carefully checked it, and finally landed on a small mark, and immediately let out a hoarse grinning like a crow: "Ah hahaha, this is really an unexpected gain!"

"Everyone in the world says that King Shangwu Ji Dongling is an unparalleled genius. Let me ask this elder to test your ghost cultivation!"
