Everyone was speechless, and their faces were filled with disgust.
What do you mean you don't know? You are an inspector in the Bewitching Fox Department, if you don't know, who else should I ask?
This guy always wanted to work alone, but they couldn't get him to come. Now that they finally managed to get him to come, he was still trying to brush them off. Everyone had the urge to strangle him.
Wan Shou Faction Elder An Shougui said indifferently, "Elder Niu, we are all stuck here, it's better for us to find a way out, it's pointless for you to keep doing this."
Niu Youdao picked up the napkin on the table and wiped his mouth, "Elder An, I don't understand what you mean."
An Shougui said, "It's been so long, you're such a smart person, how can you not know? If you insist on working alone, why don't you make it clear in front of everyone, there's no need to treat us like fools, we're not fools! "
Niu Youdao said, "It seems like everyone has misunderstood me, I really don't know anything about the Bewitching Fox Department, I really don't know what to say."
Taishu Shan Hai said, "That means you think we're burdens, you think you're stronger and want to work alone?"
"No, no, no!" Niu Youdao waved his hands, "It's a misunderstanding, it's really a misunderstanding, I really don't know anything about the Bewitching Fox Department. To be honest, I've never been an inspector in the Bewitching Fox Department, I've been out for a long time, I've never asked about the internal affairs of the Bewitching Fox Department. Everyone should know about my long time away from home. "
Everyone frowned and looked at each other, it seemed to be the case, but they felt that he wasn't telling the truth.
Heavenly Fire Sect Elder Lu Yao frowned, "Elder Niu, your main job is to supervise the Bewitching Fox Department, why are you out for a long time? Are you going to the Bewitching Fox Department every day? "He was referring to the wedding at the Ice Sacred Grounds.
Niu Youdao sighed, "Everyone, I don't want to run around, but I have no choice, I've had a tough life, I was assigned to the Bewitching Fox Department, I can't find anyone to complain to."
Everyone was puzzled. Lu Yao asked, "What do you mean?"
Niu Youdao: "The situation of the Demon Fox Department is different from the other departments you are in. You should know what the main responsibility of the Demon Fox Department is. Their main responsibility is in the Desolate Swamp Wasteland, and they are responsible for exterminating the Demon Foxes. There is nothing to do in the Heaven Seeking City, and it is so quiet that there is nothing to do. Why should I stay in the Heaven Seeking City to supervise? Was he going to check if they were not dressed properly or if they were eating, drinking, and taking a dump? How can I report such a trivial matter to the Lord? "
Sky Splitting Palace's Elder Yu Hua said, "According to what you said, you should have followed them to the Desolate Swamp Wasteland. However, according to what we know, you seem to be running around everywhere."
Niu Youdao dropped the tablecloth in his hand and tapped the table lightly. "Everyone, this is where the problem lies."
Everyone looked at each other, as if they didn't understand. Yu Hua asked again, "What do you mean?"
Niu Youdao sighed. "You should have heard about the incident between me, Xuan Yao, and Long Fanhai. To be honest, before I came to the Heaven Seeking City, I had already offended them. These people have ill intentions towards me. Do you think it's a good thing that I was assigned to the Demon Fox Department? Everyone, why don't you think about my situation from my perspective? Why was I assigned to the Demon Fox Department? "
"The Demon Fox Department is going to the Desolate Swamp Wasteland. Is it strange for someone to die in the Desolate Swamp Wasteland? Here, our lives are not in their hands, so no one would dare to touch us. However, if we were to go to the Desolate Swamp Wasteland, people might say that I was killed by the Demon Fox. I'm afraid we wouldn't even be able to find any clues about my murder. "
"I suspect that it wasn't a coincidence that I was assigned to the Demon Fox Department. Someone must have done it on purpose."
"Everyone, think about it. Would I dare to run to the Desolate Swamp Wasteland? I wouldn't be able to find anything here, and I don't dare to go to the Desolate Swamp Wasteland either. What do you think I should do? What else can I do other than running around blindly outside? "
Qin and Ke, who were eating outside, pricked up their ears to listen to the commotion in the hall. When they heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other.
The two of them realized that whatever the Elder said made sense. They realized that even they themselves almost believed it.
Everyone in the hall was silent after hearing this. Some of them nodded in contemplation. If they were to think from Niu Youdao's point of view, it was indeed the case. No wonder he had been running around outside for a long time. So this was the reason.
Although it was reasonable, no one believed that Niu Youdao would be so honest. He looked young, but the more they interacted with him, the more they realized that he was a cunning old fox.
Taishu Shanhai said, "Elder Niu is not a fool. You should know that we can't continue to fool around like this. A batch of the inspectors outside has already been killed. If we still can't produce the results that the Holy Venerable wants, I'm afraid it will be our turn next. Elder Niu, there are some things that you can see very clearly. I don't believe that Elder Niu is just running around blindly outside. If you discover anything outside the Demon Fox Department, why don't you inform us so that we can be prepared? Don't you think so? "
"Yes."
"That's right."
Everyone agreed.
Under everyone's gaze, Niu Youdao was silent for a while. Slowly, he said, "I did discover some problems while I was outside."
Taishu Shanhai said, "Why don't you tell us?"
Niu Youdao shook his head. "It's better not to say it. There are some things that I don't want everyone to be involved in. I'm not telling you because I don't want to harm everyone."
Thinking for us? Everyone looked at each other in dismay. The relationship and friendship between them didn't seem to be that deep. If they believed his words, they would really be stupid to believe him.
In other words, if he wasn't afraid, why should they be?
Mei Zhanghong sighed. "We are all on the same side. Elder Niu, you are treating us like outsiders. At this time, there is no need to differentiate between you and me. What problem? Let's hear it. "
Niu Youdao still shook his head. "There are too many people here. I can't say it now."
Taishu Shanhai said in a low voice, "We have already teamed up to fight against the Misty Pavilion. Are you still afraid that we will leak the secret?"
Niu Youdao said, "Some things have to be guarded against. Some things can only be done and not said. When it came to investigating a case, everyone should know that once the secret was leaked, once the case was exposed, it was very likely that their efforts would be in vain. I have already reached a crucial point. There cannot be any mistakes. "
What matter has reached a crucial point? Everyone looked at each other. They were all tempted by the temptation.
Taishu Shanhai raised his eyebrows. "You said nothing. In the end, you still want to ditch us and go alone!"
"That is not what I meant." Niu Youdao waved his hand in denial. After a moment of silence, he said, "It's hard for me to handle this matter by myself. How about this, if everyone is interested, I'll call everyone over in a couple of days. When the time comes, everyone will naturally know what it is. Remember, before we leave, we must keep it a secret! "
…
The marching army stopped and looked at the mountains in the distance. Hao Yun Sheng and Hao Qi, the uncle and nephew, were wearing armor. They led the army in front, looking very dignified.
After a while, a large bird flew over and a person jumped down. He cupped his hands and said to Hao Qi, "Report! Other than the herdsmen living here, there is nothing unusual! "
Hao Qi heaved a sigh of relief. He waved his hand and said, "Continue to investigate along the way."
"Yes!" The person accepted the order and rose into the air. He landed on the bird and went away again.
Hao Yun Sheng chuckled. "Great General, are you relieved now?"
Hao Qi sighed. "Uncle Wang, the mountains of Qing Mu River are continuous. It will take a lot of time to go around it. Jin is in a hurry. The road ahead has become a place our army must pass through. We have to guard against it!"
Hao Yun Sheng was naturally clear about his nephew's mentality. Rebellion, fear, and after listening to the generals' reminder, he was cautious. He was not very good at fighting.
He laughed and said, "Great General, it is your first time participating in a war. How can a small ambush stop my 500,000 strong army? Without sufficient manpower, it is impossible to ambush them. My spies are everywhere. With the eyes and ears of Jin, it is impossible for Huyan Wuhen to not be discovered if he mobilizes his army. According to the intelligence, Huyan Wuhen's army has been disobeying orders. There are no abnormal movements of the army. "
"Also, if there is a considerable number of enemy troops, the amount of supplies won't be small. It is impossible for them to not be discovered. Now that the spies have not found anything unusual, Great General, you are really worrying too much. "
Hao Qi nodded. "It is good that nothing is wrong. Order the army to continue advancing!"
The rebel army set out once again. Hao Yun Sheng, who was accompanying them on horseback, glanced at Hao Qi from time to time and sneered in his heart.
Hao Qi's title of 'Great General' was self-conferred. He looked down on Hao Qi and felt that Hao Qi was an incompetent person. He had no choice but to be under Hao Qi as his deputy …
In a pasture at the foot of Qing Mu River, Huyan Bao, who was dressed as a herdsman, was Huyan Wuhen's eldest son. He was squatting in a pen and milking the sheep.
A soldier, also dressed as a herdsman, rode over to deliver military intelligence.
Knowing that the rebel army was approaching Qing Mu River, Huyan Bao sneered. "A group of mobs dares to rebel! Order Huyan Ding to advance at full speed and attack according to the original plan! "Huyan Ding was the second son of the Huyan family.
Following his order, a golden wing was released.
Immediately after, a whistling arrow rose into the sky above the tent of the pasture.
After that, whistling arrows rose into the sky one after another at the foot of Qing Mu River.
Herdsmen rushed out from all over the pasture area at the foot of the mountain. They carried saddles and mounted them on horseback before jumping onto the horses.
The people spread out over a wide area, reaching as far as a hundred miles. Those who traveled far were well-trained. They led two horses to the gathering point. Those with saddles were on standby, so they rode bareback horses first.
When the bareback horses were tired and they were close to their destination, they immediately abandoned them and switched to trained warhorses.
Thirty thousand herdsmen emerged like ants and quickly gathered in Huyan Bao's direction …
A hundred miles behind the rebel army, Huyan Ding, who was in the 300,000 rebel army, received a message from his elder brother. He suddenly rose in revolt and killed an old general on the spot. He was also the commander of the 300,000 rebel army.
Huyan Ding took advantage of his unpreparedness and personally chopped off the other party's head. No one expected that Huyan Ding would dare to make a move against the commander. He was caught off guard and succeeded.
This slash from his second brother made Huyan Wei, who was following the army, shudder with fear. It was the first time he saw such a scene. It was the first time he saw his second brother's murderous nature. His legs went weak.
This action almost caused a mutiny. First, the mages who followed the old general refused. In a moment of desperation, Huyan Ding took out the secret imperial edict and passed on the emperor's decree to take over the authority of the rebel army.
He also announced that Huyan Wuhen's million troops had secretly arrived and set up an ambush. They had already defeated the rebel army. He ordered the 300,000 rebel army to immediately rush over at full speed to encircle and annihilate the fish that escaped the net.
