Chapter 535

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 unexplained disappearance will bring about some uncontrollable outcome. 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's eyes lit up as he thought of Lina's words. "When the Heavenly Gu Granny found out that I was in the capital, she was extremely shocked and confused. Now I know why the luck is with me.

"Two thieves stole the luck and hid it in a newborn baby in the capital. According to normal people's thinking, if something was stolen, it must have been taken away. "How could it still be at home? It's dark under the light. "

"The two thieves relied on this trick to deceive the rank 1 Warlock supervisor?"

Xu Qi 'an pinched the space between his eyebrows and concluded on the Xuan paper, "Why did the Fate Qi 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 set up a trap, treating me as an important chess piece.

"The warlocks involved in the Yunzhou case are most likely related to the mastermind behind the scenes …"

At this point, Xu Qi 'an suddenly froze. A question flashed through his mind. "In the Yunzhou case, I had already left the capital and was out of the sight of the supervisor. Why didn't the mysterious warlock kidnap me?"

Suddenly, Xu Qi 'an paused. He had a question. "In the Yunzhou case, I had left the capital and was out of the Supervisor's sight. Why didn't the mysterious warlock take me away?"

He pressed his throbbing head and decided not to continue thinking. He would wait until his Primordial Spirit had fully recovered before carefully considering and reconsidering.

Xu Qi 'an turned his attention to the words "Gu God's recovery and the end of the world".

"The Prophet of the Heaven Gu Division predicted that the Gu God would recover and turn the world into a world of Gu … It doesn't make sense. Although the Gu God is a superior being, 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 Sorcerer could easily defeat a Gu God.

"But the prophecy of the Heaven Gu Division can't be false, which means there are secrets that I don't know. The Gu God was the only Divine Demon who survived in ancient times. I suddenly realized that the Gu God was not the only Divine Demon who surpassed the grade in ancient times.

"But why was the Poison God the only one who survived? 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 sleeping … "

Xu Qi 'an's eyes suddenly widened. It was as if thunder had exploded in his ears. A detail that he had long forgotten suddenly flashed through 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 was inspired by the statue in the abyss, so he wanted the luck of Daibun?"

"So … that's what happened." Xu Qi 'an let out a long breath. He felt that he had figured out part of the truth.

"The former leader of the Heaven Gu Tribe wanted to suppress the Gu God. What about the backstage manipulator? I don't want to think about it. My head hurts. Being an idiot is the happiest … "Xu Qi 'an laughed at himself.

His Primordial Spirit was in pain, so he couldn't fall asleep. Xu Qi 'an planned to go to the Yamen to investigate the cause of the Battle of Shanhai Pass and the file of Zhou Xianping, the former assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue.

Zhou Xianping was the mastermind of the tax case, so he must be related to the unknown backstage manipulator.

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.

"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 … "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 caused the mastermind to be afraid of making 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 had already arranged everything? After seeing that I had the luck, he started to plan. That was why he ignored the plot of the Myriad Demons Kingdom, because he knew that the Shenshu monk would definitely live in my body … Is this also the "bodyguard" he chose for me?

Through the Shenshu monk, he firmly stabilized the luck in my body and prevented the mastermind from taking it back …

"Supervisor is too scary …" Xu Qi 'an shuddered.

He finally 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. 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 had 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 imprinted in their genes.

"I often come to Xu Mansion, but you are always in the yamen during the day, so you can't see me." Chu Caiwei puffed her cheeks and chewed on her food, replying 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 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 quality feed every day to recharge her energy. Her hair was bright, and her curves were excellent.

After arriving at the yamen of the night watchman, 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 so dignified.

Xu Qi 'an was a little emotional. In this era where free love was not advocated, either the family 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-level archive, but Xu Qi 'an found the relevant file in the B-level 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 right to access the B-level archive, but Xu Qi 'an's status was too special. Except for the A-level archive, which needed Wei Yuan's handwriting, the information in the B-level archive was completely open to him.

After reading Zhou Xianping's file, Xu Qi 'an finally understood why it was a B-level 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. I've become a cripple listening to music on the balcony. 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 place 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 what I rely on the most. 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 encroach on Daibun's territory.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Daibun immediately called the big brothers in the west to join forces and 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?

"That's not the point …" Xu Qi 'an said to himself.

"I've 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.
