After confirming that there were no problems, Wei Shu waved his hand to release Yang Qing and the others.
Yang Qing and the others immediately looked around, maintaining a high level of vigilance.
Almost at the same time, the Six Path Generals each released two people and made a hand signal. The twelve of them went in six different directions, guarding their surroundings.
Yang Qing asked Wei Shu to confirm the direction, and then pointed in a direction to White Phoenix. "About eighty miles southeast of here, there is a city with many wine shops. Facing the city's entrance is the place where the boats that come and go stop. Xiahou Ta is on one of the black awning boats. The one with the red paint on the bow of the black awning boat is the target. Xiahou Ta, you should know him …"
White Phoenix said impatiently, "Say no more. My ears are getting calluses from your words. The more you say, the more nervous I get."
Yang Qing's expression was solemn as he continued, "Remember, Wei Shu has been to that place once. When you're there, don't look around, it's easy to arouse suspicion. Furthermore, there's a high chance that Xiahou Ta's men are hiding among the secular crowd. Also, before you go see Xiahou Ta, go to a restaurant by the river and buy some home-cooked seafood. Don't need to be extravagant, just buy home-cooked seafood. "
White Phoenix: "Got it, got it."
Yang Qing continued, "Remember, the black bottle is poison and the white bottle is the antidote. You must move quickly and discreetly, don't let anyone see you. Also, remember that the money here is different from other places. Use the money I gave you before … "

Yang Qing: "You can only go alone. We can't go with you or it will arouse suspicion. Don't worry, we will arrive later and lie in ambush around you. Understand? "
White Phoenix pointed, "Don't lie to me, or don't blame me for telling Xiahou Ta everything you know."
Yang Qing frowned, "Now is not the time to talk. Go quickly, or you will arouse suspicion if you don't show up for a long time."
"How unlucky …" White Phoenix muttered as she quickly flew towards the southeast with Wei Shu's appearance.
Yang Qing turned to the Great Generals of the Six Paths and said, "Did you guys hear about the meeting place?"
The six nodded, "Got it."
According to what Wei Shu said, there's a small river not far from the north that connects to the large river in the southeast. Don't go by land, and don't go along the river to get closer. Instead, go upstream and stay away from the target location. Once you're 300 li away from the target location, you'll spread out and circle around the target location. Everyone, stay at the six points of encirclement. You must maintain a distance of at least 300 li away from the target location. I suspect that the Old Thief has already set up hidden sentries in the vicinity, and there's a chance that someone might recognize you guys. Also, your demeanor doesn't seem to be that of an ordinary person. Any approach might be discovered, so we must do the opposite. It's better to stay far away than to get close. I will go into the city to observe. Listen to my orders. If there are any changes, you need to rush over at full speed. "
He also had to be prepared for failure. If White Phoenix failed, then he could only forcefully capture Xiahou Ta as a hostage.
"Got it!" The six generals answered.
Yang Qing looked to the north and said, "From here to the river in the north, you must be careful of hidden sentries. It's better to be slow than to rush. You must also be vigilant in the water. Do not let anyone discover you. Go!"
"Yes!" The six men answered and quickly headed north.
Yang Qing turned to Yan Xiu and said, "If Xiahou Ta has any contact with Wei Shu, inform me immediately."
Yan Xiu nodded. He and Wei Shu had been taken in by Yang Qing again.
Charcoal saw that there was no one else and happily rubbed his hands, "What mission did Mister give me?" He was eager to show off.
Yang Qing was silent for a while, then said, "It is not suitable for you to show your face."
Charcoal glared, "It is safer if I show my face. No one has seen me before!"
Yang Qing said, "There are not many people who have seen me, and even fewer here. If I change my appearance and expression, no one should recognize me." With that said, he waved his hand and put Charcoal away as well. He turned to look to the southeast again. He did not go in the direction that White Phoenix had gone, but chose another direction to take a detour.
The others had to be careful with the hidden sentries, but for White Phoenix, the pressure was not on her. She openly skimmed to the forest near the outskirts of the city before landing. She walked out of the forest unhurriedly and headed straight for the river outside the city.
It was obvious that this was a bustling city. A street was formed beside the river outside the city. Wine shops stood in great numbers by the river and pedestrians weaved in and out. Merchant ships constantly unloaded and unloaded goods by the river.
White Phoenix remembered Yang Qing's warning and kept Yang Qing's reminder in mind. She kept her eyes on the street but did not look around. She charged into the crowd on the street.
Seeing that she was not far from the exit of the city across the river, White Phoenix looked at the restaurant on the side. She went in and ordered a few home-cooked seafood dishes and a pot of wine. Then, she walked out unhurriedly. Even the way she carried the food was in accordance with the real Wei Shu's habit.
She walked to the city gate across the river and saw the steps leading down to the river. She stood on the steps and swept her eyes over the row of boats moored by the river. Her heart tightened and she cursed in her heart. This old fox really did not die!
With a single glance, she saw a red-painted boat with a black awning at the bow. An old man wearing a straw raincoat and a bamboo hat sat cross-legged at the bow. Who else could it be but Xiahou Ta? She had known Xiahou Ta for a long time.
Thinking that there were people lying in ambush around to help her, White Phoenix's nervousness eased a little. She tried her best to calm her emotions and carried her things down the stone steps.
Xiahou Ta looked up and glanced at her. He got off the boat and began to untie the rope.
White Phoenix followed Wei Shu's instructions and did not say anything. She casually ordered and directly boarded Xiahou Ta's boat. She went into the awning and sat cross-legged.
Xiahou Ta threw the rope onto the boat. He got on the boat and pushed the bamboo pole. The boat left the shore and he put down the bamboo pole again. He rowed the boat towards the middle of the river.
When the boat stopped in the middle of the river, Xiahou Ta let go of the oars and turned around. White Phoenix had already arranged the dishes and wine.
Xiahou Ta sat cross-legged on the opposite side of the small table and stared at the dishes with a dazed expression. He let out a soft sigh of old age.
White Phoenix poured wine for him and said in a slightly sad tone, "The restaurant's culinary skills might not be as good as Second Master's."
Xiahou Ta picked up his chopsticks and picked up a small prawn to slowly chew. Finally, he picked up the wine cup and drank it in one gulp. He slapped the wine cup down and continued to eat without a word.
His silence and his long accumulated reputation gave White Phoenix a feeling that he was unfathomable. This made White Phoenix a little worried that she had been exposed. She forcefully controlled her nervousness and once again poured wine for Xiahou Ta.
At the same time, she also picked up her chopsticks to taste and drank a cup of wine. She had taken the antidote beforehand and was not afraid of anything.
Xiahou Ta still did not say a word. He ate and drank a few cups of wine in a row.
White Phoenix was secretly happy. She was worried that the other party would not eat. She did not expect him to drink so happily. She continued to pour wine while muttering in her heart, "Pour … Pour … Almost there …"
After drinking almost half a pot of wine, Xiahou Ta, who had been stifled for a long time, suddenly let out a long sigh and sighed, "Number two's matter is already over. Don't mention it in the future … Don't bring any more freshwater seafood here."
"Yes!" White Phoenix replied softly.
Xiahou Ta also put down his chopsticks and asked, "Where's the Blood Lotus?"
White Phoenix immediately took out a storage ring and handed it over.
Xiahou Ta did not mind the brilliance of the treasure and directly took out the Blood Lotus from the storage ring, as if he was not the least bit worried that it would be discovered.
In reality, there was a black canopy here and ordinary people would not be able to see the situation in the middle of the river. Moreover, this was Xiahou Ta's territory, so there was no need to worry too much.
In the middle of the red jade-like stamen, there was a lotus seed pod without any lotus seeds. It was bright red and glistening, and the white jade-like lotus root was even shining with multicolored light.
Xiahou Ta held the Blood Lotus and looked at it for a long time. He then put it in front of his nose and sniffed it. He could not smell anything when he took it away, but when he brought it closer, he smelled a strong smell of blood. His eyes fell on the white jade-like lotus root that was shining with multicolored light. He nodded and said, "I don't know if it is that magical, but it should be a divine herb without a doubt. It can't be faked. It is a good thing! Wei Shu, what should I say about you? When I asked you to look for this item from the Blood Demon Ancestor, you actually failed. Otherwise, there would be no need to go through so much trouble. "As he spoke, he put away the Blood Lotus and picked up his chopsticks again.
Hearing this, White Phoenix's heart tightened. What Blood Demon Ancestor? He did not tell me about this! She could only reply, "It is this old servant's fault."
At this moment, Xiahou Ta suddenly let out a muffled groan. The wine cup in his hand shook visibly, and the wine in the cup spilled out. Xiahou Ta almost instantly raised his eyes to stare at Wei Shu opposite him.
White Phoenix, who had been paying attention to his reaction, did not know how many times she had complained in her heart that she was about to explode. At this moment, she did not hesitate at all and decisively flicked her finger to hit Xiahou Ta's chest with transcendence energy. A foot also stretched out from under the small table and pressed on Xiahou Ta's leg. She used her transcendence energy to suppress Xiahou Ta and not allow him to move. She was afraid that he would alert Yang Qing's so-called spies in the surroundings.
Xiahou Ta was controlled to the point where he could not move or even speak. A trace of fear gradually appeared in his angry eyes.
Only then did White Phoenix lean over and tap on Xiahou Ta's body a dozen times. After she had completely controlled Xiahou Ta, she took out a white porcelain bottle and took out a pill. She quickly placed it in Xiahou Ta's mouth and used her transcendence energy to help him swallow it.
At this moment, White Phoenix heaved a heavy sigh of relief. She patted her chest and said, "Old thief, you scared me to death."
Hearing Wei Shu speak in a woman's voice, Xiahou Ta's eyes flickered. However, he could not move or speak.
White Phoenix took out a Star Bell and contacted Yang Qing. "I've succeeded. I've already controlled him. Quickly come and support me."
Yang Qing was sitting in a private room of a restaurant and was watching the movements of the black awning boat through the window. He was overjoyed when he heard the news. He did not expect White Phoenix to succeed so easily and immediately replied. "Don't make any more movements and wait! If there are any abnormalities, immediately take the old thief hostage! "
Without saying much, she carefully put away the Star Bell and did her best to control the fluctuations of her transcendence energy so that it would not leak too far.
