Chapter 13

What happened in the dark night in Hongdu Prefecture did not attract any attention from the official.

Because Hong Yufei just wanted to ask from the thieves who released his news, and had no intention of killing people, although several thieves were resentful, at least they had saved their lives, but they could bear it.

Besides, even if they don’t want to endure it, if they are not Hong Yufei’s opponent, will they still dare to report the case to the government?

They colluded with many yamen runners and clerks in the government, but they themselves knew that they were not allowed to go to the forefront. If they really ran into them without knowing how to explain to the gentry, they would be afraid that the magistrate who was worried about how to explain to the gentry. The magistrate took it down directly, took the blame, and threw it into the prison for two months.

Although Hong Yufei was beaten up and did not know the reason, these thieves did not have much doubt about Hong Yufei's identity.

As local snakes, although they are not allowed to go to the table, they still know very well about the people of all religions and ranks in this world, so they have no clue about Hong Yufei.

They naturally imagined it as the most common character they had seen before:

The new crossing river dragon.

After all, who would have thought that when almost the entire Hongdu Mansion was searching for it and arresting the "Shadowless Rat", the person involved, Hong Yufei, dared to appear in Hongdu Mansion with swagger, and without any scruples, he would "kill" them.

Therefore, when they think about it, this should be another powerful person who wants to gain a foothold in Hongdu Mansion.

After all, Hongdu Prefecture is also the capital of the entire Jiangxi Provincial Administration, and it connects the north and south, with prosperous trade routes. It is also appropriate to attract these experts with means and wise minds.

Of course, this is also because although Hong Yufei is naturally arrogant, he is extremely cautious in the process and has never mentioned anything about "shadowless rat" from beginning to end.

It was just indirect and without any focus to ask the city thieves about the big and small things that have happened in the city recently, especially the news about the thieves with names and surnames in the world.

His approach is indeed very confusing, which is why these thieves think that Hong Yufei wants to gain a foothold in Hongdu Prefecture.

They subconsciously felt that Hong Yufei wanted to come to Hongdu Mansion to get a share of the pie, so they wanted to find out the powerful people and forces in Hongdu Mansion and be prepared in advance.

This is just like the boxers in later generations who had to submit a visit to other martial arts halls before they wanted to open a martial arts hall to open a new place, and even had to "discuss" one or two first.

However, the government forces in Hongdu Prefecture did not notice Hong Yufei's crossing river dragon, but many other people and forces in the dark had clear eyes.

The morning after Hong Yufei had an "in-depth and friendly" exchange with the city thieves, they learned about this and learned that a "newcomer" with a very strong idea came to the city.

The most nervous ones are naturally the other flying thieves who were originally happy in Hongdu Mansion.

Although they have their own names in the world, they are not much stronger than those market stolen, especially at the spiritual level.

Therefore, they are consistent with the city thieves' judgment of Hong Yufei.

This is a Jianglong who wants to compete for territory with them.

After a little thought, they were ready to work together to drive out this ignorant outsider or let it disappear directly without caring about their hatred.

The entire Hongdu Mansion is so big and there are so many businesses. One more person obviously needs to share one more piece of cake, so they naturally have to share one less piece of cake.

They are happy to do things that harm others and benefit themselves, but is it the other way around? Haha...

However, after barely reaching a cooperation, it is obvious that only they know what their respective thoughts are.

Especially those who can get a small cake now and are not satisfied with the situation.

In the eyes of these people, Hong Yufei is a variable. If used properly, it may become a variable that breaks the current inherent situation.

Compared with those who only see the sky as big as the wellhead and can only see the little interests in front of them, Tianyan Sect, who also noticed this matter, has obviously a very different view of this matter from Hong Yufei.

Since the news of the disastrous defeat in Quanzhou Prefecture came, although Ji Tian, ​​the Tianyan Sect, looked no different from before under the pressure of Huanglong, was actually quite nervous when he went up to Huanglong and every ordinary disciple.

Especially Huang Long, since he heard that Mu Yixing had betrayed him, many of his subordinates who had sent to support Mu Yixing were arrested under the joint efforts of Mu Yixing and the Jinyiwei. He was always paying attention to clues that happened in Hongdu Mansion.

Because based on his understanding of the Jinyiwei, he believed that after interrogating the arrested Tianyan Sect leaders and summarizing the information about Zhongjitian, the Jinyiwei would definitely not just sit idly by.

Especially when the team escorting the treasures was likely to pass through Hongdu Mansion, the Jinyiwei would definitely send capable personnel to investigate the news and provide intelligence support for future efforts to deal with Zhongjitian.

He had already formulated a plan to deal with it, even though the two subordinates who had sent to the Fujian Provincial Administration to investigate the news had not returned yet.

But more than a month has passed. Hongdu Mansion has no other movement except for the fact that it was disturbed by a small thief before. This made Huang Long, who had been waiting for a long time, feel as if he had hit a heavy punch on cotton. While he was very discordant, he felt more and more uneasy because of this long calmness.

Especially when he sent people to investigate for a long time, he found that the thief "Shadowless Rat" that made the whole city restless, had actually appeared in other places in Hongdu Prefecture before. The news was not that the Jinyiwei had spread out the suspicion array for the sake of the Jinyiwei, and his uneasiness became bigger and bigger.

So whenever he was lying on the bed and tossing and turning, he felt a little as he could stand in front of Chen Yanqing, the Jinyiwei Qianhu, and roared loudly to ask Chen Yanqing:

"What are you doing? How do you become a Qianhu, the Jinyiwei?"

And just as the uneasiness in his heart turned into uneasy anxiety and even anxiety, Hong Yufei, a behavior that was originally very normal in the eyes of most people, even the "victim", seemed to have become a prelude to the Jinyiwei's attack in Huang Long's eyes.

He urgently needed to use his actions to vent his anxiety and became the person who cares most about this matter in the entire Hongdu Prefecture City.

When he received the news the next morning, he immediately ordered the spies who had already broken into pieces to avoid the Jinyiwei and hid everywhere, and became active again, digging out the "truth" behind this matter as quickly as possible, and finding the "river dragon" that the city secretly stole.

If all underground forces in Hongdu Prefecture who "feel good" dare to call themselves "local tyrants", then the Tianyan Sect, which was established and rooted in Hongdu Prefecture decades ago, should roughly call itself "Ye Mengjiad" in the land.

The Tianyan Sect spies who had "hibernated" before just to prevent the arrival of the Jinyiwei spy, woke up and immediately showed the terrible strength that could not be achieved by multiplying the "local snakes" by several times.

In less than a day, Hong Yufei, who was still a hazy shadow in the eyes of most "local snakes", could barely see but could not catch them, was found by the spies from Jitian in the Tianyan Sect.

Things that followed will naturally become simpler. Needless to say, tracking and investigation are necessary, this is necessary.

In addition, the spies from Zhongjitian also drew a portrait of Hong Yufei, and then used this portrait to use the information spreading from the Tianyan Sect to investigate Hong Yufei's background and identity.

At the beginning, because of Hong Yufei's always mysterious, Tianyan Sect gained nothing, as if there was no such figure in the world.

But at this time Huang Long was excited and determined. Even after hearing the trepidation of his subordinates, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He seemed to be very satisfied with the news, which made Tianzhu Xingjun, who was worried that he would be scolded by Huang Long and even punished him, both fortunate and confused.

He never thought that in Huang Long's opinion, the figure of Hong Yufei was just the right one in the world.

Huang Long had long regarded Hong Yufei as an elite from the Jinyiwei.

It is normal to not find the person. If it can be found, Huang Long would be unhappy.

But Huang Long, who had put all this in his heart, did not expect that his actions made Tianzhu Xingjun, who had not been scolded, feel that he was understanding himself, and that his confusion and glory became the shamelessness and courage after being moved.

In the next two days, under the leadership of the Tianzhu Xingjun, the spies of Zhongjitian worked harder than before. Finally, two days later, they found Hong Yufei's identity.

So Huang Long was really unhappy.

"He is really the Shadowless Rat who made the whole Hongdu City uneasy?"

Although after learning the news, Huang Long immediately wanted to slap the table and curse at these "self-righteous" subordinates, fortunately, he also knew that doing so would definitely make his subordinates' passion and hearts cold. Therefore, he barely suppressed the urge to curse in his heart and asked again in a deep voice.

"I will definitely not be wrong after the Lord. He is indeed the Shadowless Rat."

The spy leader Tianzhu Xingjun, who didn't know that they were already walking further and further on the road to being scolded, replied with a certain expression, and even felt a little proud.

"This is also confirmed by the Tianji Pavilion. More than 90% of this person may be the Shadowless Rat."

Finally, Huang Long could no longer hold back, grabbed the only point in his words that could curse and vent his anger - Tianji Pavilion, and started cursing.

As the scolded Tianzhu Xingjun, judging from the shocking but not panic in his eyes, he had never expected this situation at all, so that he could not care about panic when scolded, but was stunned in place.

Obviously, he couldn't understand why Huang Long looked "affirm" and "conscientious" when he found nothing before. Now he found Hong Yufei's background and identity. For insurance, he also confirmed with Tianji Pavilion to ensure the correctness of the news. Why did Huang Long suddenly change his face and start cursing at himself?

Is it really because of Tianji Pavilion?

He really couldn't figure it out.

Is there anything wrong with going to the Tianji Pavilion, which has the richest and most accurate information in the world, for verification?

Or is it that Lord Huanglong thinks that if I do this, I will leak the information to Tianji Pavilion, so I am so dissatisfied?

The Tianzhu Xingjun, who slowly recovered from his surprise, was obviously a good minister who was very good at "understanding the best intentions". Soon, he relied on his imagination to complete the logic of Huang Long's swearing at him.

After scolding for a while, Huang Long finally stopped talking after he felt dry mouth and was already a little tired.

However, even he himself felt that his cursing was a bit too much, so he felt that he would see him in the eyes of Tianzhu Xingjun, who was resentful or even dissatisfied. After stopping, he was shocked to find that the other party's eyes were not at all resentful, but on the contrary, he looked full of teaching.

"Please rest assured, Lord, my subordinates will never make such mistakes again in the future."

The next moment, the Star Lord of Tianzhu spoke again, assured Huang Long with a sincere tone.

"Well, that's good."

Although Huang Long himself didn't know what the Tianzhu Xingjun did wrong, he naturally couldn't show any of it when facing his subordinates.

Therefore, facing the promise of Tianzhu Xingjun, he pondered for a while before nodding and replied in a barely satisfied tone.

"Since you are sure that the man is Shadowless Rat, then you must be more careful after that and keep an eye on his every move."

It seemed that after he had scolded someone, the depression accumulated in his heart dissipated. Looking at the Tianzhu Xingjun in front of him, he always felt a little apologetic. After Huang Long cleared his throat, he was about to drive him away.

"If you have any news, come and report it immediately."

"Yes, my subordinates understand."

The Star Lord of Tianzhu naturally didn't know what Huang Long was thinking, so he immediately stood up and bowed back, then bowed his waist, faced Huang Long, and slowly retreated to the door.

"That subordinate takes his leave."

"Wait a moment."

However, just as the Tianzhu Xingjun was about to retreat to the door, Huang Long called him again.

"Although you can roughly be sure that the man is the Shadowless Rat, you can't fully affirm his identity after all. And even if he is really a Shadowless Rat, it may be just a fake identity that is covered outside to cover up the identity of the Jinyiwei. So after you go back, tell your subordinates to be careful not to be exposed."

Obviously, Huang Long was still a little unwilling to give up.

"Yes, I know, please rest assured Lord."
