Zhuque County.

There are thirteen people in total among the Thirteen Taibao. Luo Fengtang only took the leader with the scarred man, and the others stayed where they were.

After moving away the wooden blocks blocking the road, Luo Fengtang got into the car, waved his whip, and drove the carriage towards Shijiacun.

…

Xuyu Palace.

Feng Bei, Mi Qi, Ouyang Heng and others finally received the letter.

The letter from Luo Fengtang came to them immediately.

"Master Hou is in Lingquan Township."

Mickey couldn't help but said.

In fact, she was very worried in her heart, but she couldn't show it because it showed her distrust of Luo Fengtang's ability.

"Lingquan Township? That place..."

Feng Bei's words came to his lips, but he hesitated.

"What's strange about Lingquan Township?"

Mi Qi, Ouyang Heng and others suddenly became nervous.

They are actually Luo Fengtang's escorts when he returns to Zhuque County this time, and are responsible for Luo Fengtang's safety.

Although Luo Fengtang is a martial arts master, martial arts masters are still human beings. Faced with various secretive methods in the world, one careless move may capsize the boat.

What they have to do is to eliminate various safety hazards in advance.

But now Luo Fengtang is in Lingquan Township. They are in Xuyu Palace, surrounded by mountains. They are at least hundreds of miles apart. Water from far away cannot quench the thirst of those nearby. If there is any trouble in Lingquan Township, they can't catch it.

In the past, it was natural to be anxious in this way.

"In Lingquan Township, there are many sects and sects. There are also many temples and Taoist temples there. There are at least tens of thousands of temples and Taoist temples. Therefore, there are many kinds of things and strange things."

Feng Bei placed his palm on the side of the letter, frowning and thinking.

They have returned to the box at the mountain base, which is also called the West Building. The overall layout is similar to that of the Xuyu Palace headquarters outside.

"More than 10,000 temples? How come there are so many? There should be only a few hundred thousand people in Lingquan Township in total. Isn't it true that just a few dozen people can have one temple?"

Ouyang Heng sat next to him, unable to help but have a look of astonishment on his face.

"There are hundreds of thousands of people. Lingquan Township is a township in name. In fact, it is the Zhuque Mountain Range. It is at the junction of big rivers and is considered a transportation thoroughfare. The population gathered there is about the same as that of a county. The population of Zhuque County is still

Not as many there.”

An emotional expression appeared on Feng Bei's face.

"Xuyu Palace has branches in the entire Sixiang County. There are branches in slightly larger places. There should be branches in Lingquan Township as well."

Mickey asked with raised eyebrows.

She has been observing Feng Bei's expression.

Judging from Feng Bei's expression, he must be very familiar with Lingquan Township.

"Yes, we have a branch. At first, I wanted to develop our power in Lingquan Township, but the situation there was too complicated. In the end, we only maintained a small contact point and did not really develop."

Feng Bei sighed.

Mickey suddenly knew something.

Feng Bei said it very euphemistically, but in fact, the subtext is that Xuyu Palace suffered a loss there, so it did not dare to touch the power there.

"The Marquis is just stopping there for a while. He will be back soon. It shouldn't be a big problem."

Mickey said.

"I hope so."

Mian Cheng, who had not spoken for a long time, spoke a few words.

The most worrying person here is not Feng Bei or Mi Qi, but Mian City.

Perhaps it had something to do with the fact that he had been a criminal police officer for many years. He had an ominous premonition that Luo Fengtang would encounter something difficult in Lingquan Township, and his life might even be in danger.

"Sect Master Feng, please let someone sort out the important information from Lingquan Township. Let's take a look at it first. After that, when we are ready, we will go to Lingquan Township to meet the Marquis." Mi Qi raised her head.

"Okay, I will immediately instruct the disciples to sort out the information."

Feng Bei nodded and quickly gave the order.

The Xuyu Gong family has a great cause and many disciples.

For a place like Lingquan Township that has suffered losses in the past, the collection of information is extremely large.

As long as Feng Bei continues to make arrangements, someone will organize everything and deliver it to them when the time comes.

They waited for a while, and sure enough, a disciple sorted out the relevant information and sent it over. In fact, it was not much. The important ones were only four pages in total. Some disciples worked together to copy and copy, and they could be processed quickly.

After Mickey got it, she took a brief look at it and was a little surprised.

There are more than 10,000 Taoist temples, most of which are small in scale, just built with earthen blocks and wood randomly in the village, and a small number of them were passed down from generation to generation many years ago.

This sounds very bluffing, but in fact it is just that.

However, some of the Jianghu forces collude with the landlords and gentry, which is really frightening.

Sometimes the powerful gentry and the sect forces merge into one, and the leader is both the sect leader and a well-known local gentry.

Often those people have the reputation of being a good person.

"Liu Dashan, Wang Dashan, Li Dashan, all of them are great benefactors. The rich and powerful are all great benefactors. The poor and common people are just unruly people. This place is absolutely rotten."

Mickey sneered.

"Yeah, it sucks. The domestic slave market has been restricted in the capital, but in places like Lingquan Township, there is an extremely prosperous domestic slave market. It is said that the domestic slaves sold there are not only Daqi people, but also domestic slaves.

Even the grassland people, Daliao people, poison-eating people, blond Yajili people, black Kunlun slaves... almost everything is included."

Mian Cheng sighed.

"Has it reached this level?"

Mickey and others were all stunned.

Mian Cheng spread his hands and said helplessly: "I really want to say that I made it up, but in fact, the real situation may be even more outrageous than what I said."

"This is almost as good as Fengtai back then."

Mickey took a deep breath.

"That's not the case. There is filth in Fengtai, and there are many forbidden things hidden there. That's why it was banned by the court. Their domestic slave markets will not have prohibited food on the surface. Those domestic slaves usually go through the formal

Those obtained through channels, I mean Daqi people. No one can tell whether the domestic slaves abroad are regular or not. Generally, the government turns a blind eye and ignores them."

Miancheng also knew about the Fengtai incident back then. He was a criminal head catcher and could access a certain level of secret files.

What ordinary people don't know is that there was a secret place called Fengtai in that part of the capital, where all kinds of weird and weird ways of playing could be found.

"Those great philanthropists also have some good deeds on the surface, such as building bridges and repairing roads, and setting up porridge shacks to help the villagers in disaster years. But their motives are not pure. Making money through these good deeds is their real purpose.

the goal of."

Mian Cheng continued.

“How do you make money by doing good deeds?”

Mickey was a little confused.
