Xu Qi 'an's face froze, as if a tsunami was set off in his heart.
At this moment, his brain seemed to be electrified. Countless pheromones were boiling, and all kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind. Many details that he didn't pay attention to before were surging to the surface.
"I didn't think it was suspicious that warlocks were involved in the tax case before … It turns out that the tax case was aimed at me?"
Xu Qi 'an felt his scalp go numb.
He recalled the situation of the Xu family in the tax case.
Xu Pingzhi failed to protect the money and lost 150,000 taels of silver. The Yuanjing Emperor decreed that Xu Pingzhi should be beheaded in public, the men of his three families should be exiled to the border, and the women should be sent to the Musical House.
That was to say, if he hadn't traveled through time and solved the tax case, Xu Qi 'an would have been exiled.
Exiled to the border, and then get back the luck in my body?
"I used to think that luck would recover with the improvement of my level. A ninth-grade cultivator would pick up one tael, an eighth-grade cultivator would pick up three taels, and a seventh-grade cultivator would pick up five taels …
"Now that I think about it, it's not like that at all. After I was released from prison, I began to pick up taels, and I was still in the Spirit Refining Realm. But why didn't the original owner, Xu Qi 'an, pick up taels?
"In fact, the luck hidden in my body began to recover during that time, so the backstage manipulator created the tax case to 'get' me out of the capital.
"There is a logic bug here. If they want to get me out of the capital, they don't need to go through so much trouble. They can just kidnap me. The Supervisor is in the capital, and the backstage manipulator doesn't dare to enter the capital, because any aura-shielding magic is ineffective for a first-grade warlock.
"But it doesn't need the backstage boss to kidnap a fast guy from Changle County. He can just send a few yellow-haired men to take me away.
"Unless … my disappearance will bring some uncontrollable consequences. So, they have to reasonably make me leave the capital through the tax case?
"But I'm just an ordinary fast guy. Who will care if I go missing? Still the same question, why is the luck on me … "
Xu Qi'an had a flash of inspiration as he recalled Lina's words. "When Grandma Gu learned that I was in the capital, she was extremely shocked and puzzled. I know why the luck is with me.
"Two thieves stole the providence and secretly hid it in a newborn baby in the capital. According to a normal person's logic, if something is stolen, it must have been taken away. How could he still stay at home? This resulted in the darkness under the light.
"The two thieves relied on this trick to deceive the grade 1 Warlock Supervisor?"
Xu Qi'an pinched his glabella and concluded on the Xuan paper, "Why did the fate energy hide in my body? It could be a coincidence, or there could be another purpose.
"After my providence recovered, the Supervisor noticed me and began to make arrangements, regarding me as an important chess piece.
"The warlock who appeared in the Yunzhou case is most likely related to the mastermind behind the scenes …"
At this point, Xu Qi'an suddenly froze, and a doubt flashed in his mind: In the Yunzhou case, I had already left the capital and was out of the Supervisor's sight. Why didn't the mysterious warlock take me away?
This was another logical loophole.
He pressed his aching head and decided to stop thinking about it. When his Primordial Spirit was fully recovered, he would think about it carefully and review again.
Xu Qi'an turned his attention to the words "Gu God's recovery, the end of the world".
"The Prophet of the Heaven Gu Division predicted that the Gu God would eventually recover and turn the world into a world with only venomous insects … It doesn't make sense. Although the Gu God is an existence beyond grade, he is not invincible."
There was Buddha in the West, Witch God in the Northeast, a missing Tao Master, and a Confucian Sages who claimed to have passed away.
Not to mention the latter two, Buddha and Witch God could easily defeat the Gu God.
"But the prophecy of the Heaven Gu Division can't be false, which means there are some secrets that I don't know. The Gu God is the only Divine Demon who survived in ancient times. In ancient times, there must be more than one Divine Demon who was beyond grade.
"But why only the Gu God survived in the end? Could this be the reason why the Gu God will bring the end of the world? Therefore, the former leader of the Heaven Gu Division chose to steal the luck and suppress the Gu God in order to keep the Gu God in a deep sleep … "
Xu Qi'an's eyes suddenly opened wide, as if there was a thunderclap in his ears. A detail that he had forgotten suddenly flashed in his mind.
Number Five Lina once said in the fragment of the Book of the Earth that the Gu Tribe found the statue of the Confucian Sage when they were exploring the abyss.
"The statue of the Confucian Sages is suspected to suppress the Gu God … The Confucian system is related to luck … The leader of the Heaven Gu Tribe drew inspiration from the statue in the abyss, so he wanted the luck of the Daibun?"
"This … So that's what happened." Xu Qi'an let out a long sigh, feeling that he had deduced part of the truth of that year.
"The former leader of the Heaven Gu Tribe wanted to suppress the Gu God, but why did the mysterious warlocks do it? I don't want to think about it, my head hurts. Being an idiot is the happiest … "Xu Qi'an laughed at himself.
With his Vital Spirit in pain, he couldn't fall asleep. Xu Qi'an planned to go to the Yamen to investigate the cause of the Battle of Shanhai Pass, as well as the files of the former assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Zhou Xianping.
Zhou Xianping was the mastermind of the tax case, so he must be related to the warlocks of unknown origin.
Outside the room, he saw Li Miaozhen holding a porcelain bowl in one hand and a piece of rice paper in the other. Tenzō Shōnin snorted coldly.
"Why are you poking Susu? Fortunately, she is just a paper doll, if she was a decent person …"
"Then I have to take responsibility for her?"
"No, I will chop off your claws."
"…"
"Chop off my claws? My claws are not as strong as the Shenshu monk, they can't be reattached once they are broken … "Xu Qi'an complained in his mind. Suddenly, he was petrified.
The Shenshu monk? I was able to return safely from Yunzhou because of the Shenshu monk in my body? This made the mastermind afraid to make a move directly, afraid of the Shenshu monk's retaliation … Yes, when the mastermind was in Yunzhou, he must have observed me from a close distance and discovered the existence of the Shenshu monk in my body.
Supervisor, he already arranged everything? After he saw that I had luck in my body, he started to plot against me. That was why he ignored the plot of the Myriad Demon Country because he knew that Monk Shen Shu would definitely live in my body … Was this also the "bodyguard" he chose for me?
Through the Shenshu monk, he firmly stabilized the luck in my body, so that the mastermind can't take it back …
"Supervisor is too scary …" Xu Qi'an shuddered.
He really saw what a wise man's plan was. Grass snake gray line.
When he came to the front hall, he saw the little beauty, Chu Caiwei, wearing a yellow dress, sitting in the hall. She had an oval face and big eyes.
On the round table, there were all kinds of pastries, desserts, and meat dishes. The amount of food was about enough for five or six strong men to eat their fill. At this moment, sitting at the table to deal with them were three females who looked soft on the outside, but actually had an abnormal appetite.
Chu Caiwei, Lina, and Xu Lingyin.
"Miss Caiwei, long time no see." Xu Qi'an greeted. This girl had not appeared for so many chapters. Ever since I met your Fifth Senior Sister, I wanted to break up with you.
The three females looked at him at the same time, hiding in their eyes the instinct to protect their food that was branded in their genes.
"I often come to Xu Mansion, but you are sitting in the yamen during the day, so you can't see me." Chu Caiwei puffed her cheeks, chewing on her food, and answered vaguely.
As for after dusk, as an unmarried girl, she definitely couldn't stay in someone else's mansion.
Lina continued, "Miss Caiwei and I quite hit it off."
Xu Lingyin said loudly, "Me too, me too."
Hit it off? Was it because they were on the same level of intelligence, or because they were gluttons? Xu Qi'an criticized in his heart. Seeing that the three females were so vigilant toward him, he tactfully did not enter the hall to ask for food.
"Really, I only ate a chicken leg for lunch, and I even gave half to Xu Lingyin …" He left Xu Mansion, rode his beloved filly, and galloped to the yamen.
The filly became more and more spirited. She ate war-horse grade feed every day, so she was in good shape. Her hair was bright and beautiful.
When he arrived at the yamen, Xu Qi'an first went back to "One Saber Hall" and ordered the gongs under his command to patrol the streets and not to be lazy.
The subordinate gongs sighed and said, "Boss, you sit in the yamen for three days and do nothing, but I don't see Yang Jinluo blaming you. If it were us, we would have been fired long ago. "
Xu Qi'an said with a straight face, "Don't talk nonsense, go do your work."
The gongs were not afraid of him at all and made jokes.
A 17-year-old gong timidly said, "Boss, I, I heard that you are a regular customer of the Musical House … I, I want to invite you to the Musical House tonight."
The other gongs laughed and said, "Boss, this kid wants you to lead the way. He is still a virgin, and he just broke through the Qi Refining Realm at the end of last year and joined the yamen. "
Hearing this, Xu Qi'an was a little ashamed. He did not pay much attention to his subordinates' gongs.
"Okay, I will take you there after the duty is over. It's my treat. With your salary, you are not qualified to go to the Musical House. Follow me, the boss, and you will be free for the rest of your life. "
Xu Qi'an patted him on the shoulder.
The gongs cheered and felt that they had followed the right person. There was no Jinluo silver gong in the yamen, but their boss was.
Xu Qi'an was a little emotional. In this era where free love was not advocated, either the family had made an early engagement, or they could only go to the Musical House or the brothel to spend.
He could not help but think of a brother he knew when he was studying in his previous life. A drop of his blood was also given to a similar woman. According to that brother, he was still a hot-blooded teenager who went to school with a suitcase.
It was noon, and he was hungry. When he went out of the railway station, a woman came to him and said, "Do you want to eat fast food?"
That day, his life entered a whole new stage.
He, grew up.
…
There was no file of Zhou Xianping, the former assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue, in the D-class archive, but Xu Qi'an found the relevant files in the B-class archive.
"Normally, the file of an assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue who fell from power due to corruption should not be so high …"
Only Jinluo had the authority to access the B-class archive, but Xu Qi'an's status was too special. Except for the A-class archive, which needed Wei Yuan's handwriting, the materials in the B-class archive were completely open to him.
After reading Zhou Xianping's file, Xu Qi'an finally understood why it was a B-class archive.
"According to the yamen's investigation, the former assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Zhou Xianping, had embezzled more than two million taels of silver in the past twenty years. But when he searched his house, he only found a few thousand taels of silver. Where did so much silver go?
"Even if he indulged in debauchery for twenty years, in this era of cheap prices, he could not have spent two million taels.
"Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Zhou Xianping, died in exile. He was most likely silenced."
Xu Qi'an looked at the file and was unable to speak for a long time.
"The mastermind behind the scenes has some influence on the court. There is no need to doubt that Assistant Minister Zhou is one of his people. Other than Assistant Minister Zhou, are there any other traitors? If there are, who would it be? "
Closing the file, he rubbed his temples tiredly as his spirit was squeezed out once again. He felt an unprecedented pressure.
"I can't muddle along anymore. Listening to music has crippled me. So it was the Supervisor who helped me block the turbulent undercurrents. My true situation is very bad.
"No matter who the other is, they will definitely take back the luck in my body. I cannot sit here and wait for death. En, I still have the luck in the jade seal in my body. This belongs to that Daoist Renzong in the ancient tomb.
"Will he watch as the mysterious warlock takes away his luck? However, I cannot put my hopes on an ancient human whose life and death are unknown.
"Let's set a small goal first. In two years, I have to raise my title by at least one level and gain more power. While Daibun is weak, it still has many talents. There is the Supervisor, Wei Yuan, civil officials like the old silver coin, and millions of soldiers. This is what I can rely on.
"The second goal is to advance to the fourth rank before the end of the year. Strength is my greatest support. With strength, I can turn from a chess piece to a chess player. "
"Hoo …" Xu Qi'an exhaled and summoned an official. He said, "Bring me all the files on the Battle of Shanhai Pass."
The official brought over a thick stack of files.
Xu Qi'an skimmed ten lines at a time. It took him an hour to finish reading. The files recorded that the cause of the Battle of Shanhai Pass was a conspiracy between the southern barbarians and the northern barbarians to invade Daibun's territory.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Daibun quickly called the big brothers from the West and joined forces to defeat the northern and southern barbarians.
However, Xu Qi'an knew that things were not that simple. In the Battle of Shanhai Pass, there were traces of the demon race and the Witchcraft Religion. This was a chaotic war that involved all the forces in the Jiuzhou continent.
The opponents were the northern barbarians, the northern demon race, the remnants of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom, and the Witchcraft Religion.
Daibun and West Fo won the 2v5 battle.
This was equivalent to the Jiuzhou version of the war. Such a large-scale war was definitely not without reason. "Eh … it seems like the war in my previous life was inexplicably fought?
"This is not the point …" Xu Qi'an said to himself.
"I have lost my intelligence. For this kind of thing, I can just look for my father. Why do I have to waste my time here alone?"
After thinking hard for a long time, Xu Qi'an slapped his head and gave up thinking. He left the archive and went to the Lofty Spirit Building.
