Lv Wushuang turned around silently. She recalled the scene when she first met Niu Youdao at the entrance of the Immeasurable Garden.
At that time, her disdain, her high and mighty attitude, and Niu Youdao's respect towards her, could be said to be vivid in her mind now. Compared to the past, her mood was extremely complicated.
Niu Youdao suddenly said from behind her, "Monkey can't show his face outside because of you. He's temporarily in charge of receiving and sending information. You said you would help him, so from today onwards, you'll stay by his side and assist him. I don't want to make too much noise about Officer Feng's matter. I hope you can handle it properly. I won't get involved in your family affairs. "
Lv Wushuang looked back and left the secret room. She met the three people waiting outside and left in silence.
The three people looked at each other and then quickly walked to the secret room. Yuan Gang was the first to ask, "Daoye, how is it?"
He wanted to know if his efforts were worth it.
Niu Youdao: "I've said everything that needs to be said. I know what to do. Monkey, from today onwards, she will assist you in handling information matters. "
Yuan Gang was slightly surprised. "The information we exchange involves a lot of secrets. If she gets involved, won't she find out?"
Niu Youdao: "It doesn't matter. I said I know what to do. She can come in contact with me. You have to understand that no matter who she was in the past, no matter what status she had or how capable she was in the past, if she doesn't know anything, no matter how capable she is, she won't be able to provide useful advice. "
Yuan Gang was silent.
After he left, Guan Fangyi asked tentatively, "Daoye, that woman is not an ordinary person. I'm afraid Monkey is no match for her. She is used to being high and mighty. Aren't you afraid that she knows too much … If one day her ambition becomes unquenchable, will she use Monkey and sow discord between you and Monkey? "
Niu Youdao: "It doesn't matter. At least she should understand one thing. In the future, she will be nothing without Monkey. No matter how she tries to sow discord, it's enough as long as she can protect Monkey. If things can really be delayed to the future, there are many things that we don't need to worry about. "
Suddenly, the sound of footsteps came from outside. Judging from the footsteps, it was Lu Wushuang.
The three of them looked over, and sure enough, Lv Wushuang had returned. She walked to the table and said, "There's something I forgot to remind you just now. When the Holy Rakshasa was rescued, two of your flying mounts appeared. The Six Sages will probably track them down."
Niu Youdao: "Don't worry, they won't be able to trace it back to us."
Lv Wushuang: "That's not what I want to say. After Zhuge Chi was tipped off and escaped, as well as the chaos that followed, I had a discussion with them. In order to curb the power of the chaos and limit the reaction speed of those with ill intentions, we considered whether we should control all the flying beasts in the world. This time, both the Holy Rakshasa and I managed to escape. If we can't find out where the two flying mounts came from, the Six Sages might confiscate all the flying mounts in the world. "
Yun Ji and Guan Fangyi looked at each other.
Niu Youdao: "What are the chances of that?"
Lv Wushuang: "Very high, make preparations." After saying that, she bowed and turned around to leave.
Niu Youdao frowned. If that was the case, then it would be really inconvenient for them to travel around in the future.
The moment they received the reminder, they received news in the afternoon. The Misty Pavilion sent an order to the world, ordering all the flying mounts to hand over to the Misty Pavilion. Be it the various sects or the armies of the various countries, they had to hand over all of them and they weren't allowed to use them privately.
The moment they received the decree, they had to execute it without any delay. They had to hand it over to the nearby Bank of the World and the latter would take care of the aftermath.
Of course, they wouldn't just confiscate them for nothing. They would pay according to the market price and the Bank of the World would buy them back.
The decree was swift and no one dared to delay. Niu Youdao's side was no exception. The people from Thatched Cottage had no choice but to send all their flying mounts to the Bank of the World in Nanzhou Prefecture City.
In the blink of an eye, the various sects and sects were all on the same level as the Misty Pavilion.
Whether the various powers were willing or not, they had to accept this reality. In the future, the important members of the various sects would have to travel on horseback, and their speed would be slow.
This was the same as taking away a special privilege from the higher-ups of the various sects. In the future, many things would be inconvenient.
This was obviously one of the effects that the Misty Pavilion wanted.
After that, they received a message from Xihai Hall. Wan Shou Sect was probably the only place other than the Misty Pavilion that still had flying mounts.
They gave the Wan Shou Sect the right to keep the mounts because they needed them to continue breeding them. It wasn't for the Wan Shou Sect to use. Wan Shou Sect's flying mounts couldn't leave their territory.
Comparatively speaking, the other sects were better off, but the Wan Shou Sect suffered a huge loss. What the Misty Pavilion did was cutting off their source of income.
If they couldn't use it anymore, who would buy it from them in the future? The Wan Shou Sect wouldn't dare to sell it either.
Niu Youdao had no choice but to travel on horseback. He and Yun Ji left the Southern Prefecture City and galloped all the way to Cangwu County.
After getting confirmation from Lu Wushuang that everything was fine, Niu Youdao had to start verifying some things.
Guan Fangyi still didn't get the chance to go treasure hunting with them. When Niu Youdao left, he didn't even say goodbye to her.
He hadn't been on horseback for a long time, and now that he was suddenly back on horseback, Niu Youdao wasn't used to it. Not only was his efficiency a lot slower, there were also many eyes and ears on the ground, which increased the possibility of him being exposed.
Luckily, Cangwu County was in the Southern Prefecture, it wasn't too far away.
With the order from the Southern Prefecture's military, they didn't have a problem changing their mounts along the way. They traveled through the night and arrived at Cangwu County.
The two of them found an inn to stay in and immediately left the city.
They broke into the mountains and traveled through the forest, finally stopping in front of an old tree. Niu Youdao raised his hand and pointed to a mountain villa on the opposite side of the mountain. It was the villa that King Ning had left behind.
Yun Ji was puzzled, but soon her eyes lit up. She realized something and turned around, "Is it the villa that you mentioned on the map?"
Niu Youdao nodded, "There's a secret passage in the villa that leads underground. There's an underground river about a hundred feet underground. There are people guarding the villa, I don't want to alarm them, so it's not convenient for me to enter the villa through the secret passage. Go underground and look for me once you find the underground river. "
Yun Ji nodded, and then burrowed underground.
With the precise direction, it wasn't difficult to find the underground river. In less than half an hour, Yun Ji emerged from underground. "Found it."
"Bring me there, let's go." Niu Youdao called out, and Yun Ji immediately brought him underground.
Not long after, the two of them broke through the wall and entered an underground space. They could hear the sound of flowing water.
The two Moon Butterflies released light one after another. They were already in the space of the underground river. Outside of the light, it was pitch black, giving off a mysterious feeling.
After releasing the Moon Butterflies to illuminate the area, Niu Youdao asked in a low voice, "How far is this place from the villa? Is it going up or down?"
Yun Ji said, "Not far, about half a mile. It's going down."
Niu Youdao observed the water flow and silently recalled the map. He turned around and commanded the Moon Butterflies to illuminate the area. They continued to go down, and Yun Ji followed.
The two of them didn't fly quickly, but looked carefully along the way, as if they were afraid of missing something.
Yun Ji followed closely, slightly on guard. She didn't ask much, knowing that they must be looking for the secret place recorded on the map. Bringing her along was already a great show of trust.
Of course, she also knew that the reason why they brought her along was to let her shoulder the responsibility of protecting Niu Youdao if anything happened.
After walking for a while, there was a huge turn in front of them, and the sound of flowing water gradually became a roar.
When they got closer, they found that they had reached an outlet of an underground river. There was an underground waterfall, and the water was rolling and rolling. The stone walls were dripping with water.
Yun Ji glanced at Niu Youdao, who had stopped, and stopped as well.
Niu Youdao's Moon Butterfly shuttled back and forth in the water. Niu Youdao used its light to observe the surroundings.
Not finding anything, the Moon Butterfly returned. Niu Youdao said in a low voice, "According to the map, if I'm not wrong, the place we are looking for should be here. Nothing can be seen on the surface, but if it really exists, there must be an entrance to the secret passage here. Let's look for it. You take care of the shore, I'll go take a look under the water. "
"Okay!" Yun Ji agreed.
Niu Youdao kept the Moon Butterfly, took out a Night Pearl, and directly jumped into the darkness under the waterfall. Slowly, he landed, shrouded by the rolling water mist, and gradually became a ball of light.
Yun Ji, who was standing on the shore, observed for a while, then turned around and ordered the Moon Butterfly to examine the stone walls. From time to time, she would knock on it, or press her hand to invoke her arts to probe.
After entering the water under the waterfall, Niu Youdao continued to dive through the surging bubbles. The water below was slightly deep, and it was only a few dozen feet before reaching the bottom. Other than the ball of light in his hand, the surroundings were pitch black.
Some strange and unknown fish swam freely in the water, and there were also ferocious ones that attacked him. It was naturally difficult for them to get close to him.
The rocks at the bottom of the water were big and small, and they were rugged. Niu Youdao invoked his arts to investigate along the way, but to no avail. He then invoked his arts to investigate the stone walls on both sides of the waterfall, but he still couldn't find any clues.
After a few hours, Niu Youdao broke through the water and landed on the shore. He saw that Yun Ji was already investigating on the opposite shore.
Sensing that he had woken up, Yun Ji flashed over and asked, "Did you find anything?"
Niu Youdao still wanted to ask her, but upon hearing her words, he knew that there was no need to ask anymore. The other party definitely couldn't find anything. He shook his head and surveyed the surroundings, "There's no need to look too far. According to the map, if the target is here, the entrance shouldn't be too far away. Unless I've made a mistake in understanding the map."
His gaze suddenly fell on the huge drop into the water. Thinking of something, he jumped down in a flash and followed the flow of the water. He touched the stone wall behind the water curtain to investigate.
Not long after, Yun Ji discovered that the light from the Night Illumination Pearl in the water curtain had stopped halfway up the waterfall. She immediately flashed over, piercing through the water curtain and appeared beside Niu Youdao.
Invoking his arts to force the water away, he saw a huge rock embedded in the cliff that was being battered by the water. Probably because of the constant erosion of the water, it was almost one with the cliff. If one didn't deliberately pay attention, it wouldn't be easy to attract attention.
Niu Youdao was circling around that huge rock to investigate.
