Chapter Eighty Seven: The Follower is Missing
Tan Xiangying pointed to the river channel: "The boat sinks here, and it was split in half, sinking very quickly. The broken wood hits and the whirlpool of the shipwreck. Even the water-quality water-related people have not escaped. Those who survive by chance have been seriously injured, and some people are not awake yet."
Lu Bozhong frowned and said, "Looking at this point, I must not see the reason. I still have to go into the water." After that, Lu Bozhong's seemingly vulnerable old body jumped into the water with a bang and disappeared in front of everyone.
A circle of silver-white light lingered around Xia Pingsheng, forming a closed ball that surrounded him and sank into the water.
Yan Kaiting, Fu Mingxuan, and Tan Xiangying, the three people who had already gotten into the water were waiting quietly on the shore. At this moment, Tan Xiangying suddenly looked at Yan Kaiting, with a little fatigue in his eyes, and there was a hint of pleading?
"If so, if special materials can be found, will Tiangong Kaiwu be willing to help me?"
Yan Kaiting pondered for a while, but did not answer for a while.
Although he was also very curious about who would think of taking on such a special batch of goods. However, taking on this job is not a trivial matter. Not to mention whether it delays the schedule of Tiangong's own business, if you interfere in this matter, you will just wait to wade into the quagmire. Who knows how deep the water behind it is?
Especially when the name of the Yuanhui Sect was released, Yan Kaiting could see that even Fu Mingxuan was a little concerned.
"Well, since Master Xia has intervened at this time, I can't tell you the final word. Although I am the head of the family, I am still a little younger after all."
Yan Kaiting scratched his head without thinking that he was wrong in showing weakness.
When Tan Xiangying heard this, he knew that it would be useless to continue to say it, and he sighed again. At this moment, he really hoped that Yan Kaiting was just a playboy, and he would not be as sloppy as he is now, pushing things completely, and blocking most possibilities.
He thought about it carefully and carefully sorted out the whole story of the incident many times. In the end, he still felt that he was fooled by some people from the Yanyue Sect. If he asked him to find that person, he would not be able to say that the main sect would be the alliance.
At this moment, Xia Pingsheng and Lu Bozhong came out of the water together and arrived on the ground. The white air around Xia Pingsheng dissipated, and his whole body was the same as when he entered the water. His clothes were neat and there was no water droplet on his hair. Compared with Xia Pingsheng, Lu Bozhong was under the surging river bottom, with silver hair and white beard hanging on his head of silver hair and white beard.
Lu Bozhong's managers hurriedly handed him a windbreaker. When Lu Bozhong saw Xia Pingsheng, he couldn't help but sigh: "I'm old, I'm really old, hey."
"How is it? Did Elder Lu see it?"
Tan Xiangying asked quickly.
Lu Bozhong sighed, then gritted his teeth and said, "I want to see who our Yanyue Sect is, is so brave!"
Lu Bozhong is so experienced and is very familiar with his own sect and relationship workshop. He also saw the doubts that Tan Xiangying could find, and Tan Xiangying could eat 70 to 80% of what Tan Xiangying could not be sure of. The wreckage of this underwater cargo ship is indeed a lot of tricks, but he can't figure out who is brave enough to do such a thing, and who treats others as fools, thinking that this matter will not be exposed?
Or is it that the person in charge behind the scenes found a scapegoat? Thinking of this, Lu Bozhong's inquiry eyes faintly swept to Yan to court again. Unfortunately, there was a problem with the scapegoat, and now the matter cannot be covered.
Lu Bozhong thought about the process of this sect for a while, only a few steps would have problems.
Originally, after receiving the goods from the wise craftsman, he passed by his hands. At that time, he was ordered by the head to open and inspect the goods, and there was no problem. Speaking of which, Yanyue Sect and the wise craftsman have worked together for many years, and he can be completely at ease with the quality and quantity of the goods.
At that time, the goods will naturally be sent out, but Lu Bozhong cannot even do such a link. The matter of taking the boat will be handled by his disciples and managers. Originally, delivery was not a difficult task, and it was carried out in the past.
As for cargo ship protection, because most of the waterways are above the black water, it is the territory of Xiang Ying, and he is a peripheral force recently included in the sect, so everything is natural.
It was not until the ship lost its cargo and Tan Xiangying had several twists and turns that he wanted to check the traces of the shipwreck under the water. Based on his decades of experience in sailing, he naturally saw something wrong. It was just that this matter was too incredible. He could only believe it after repeatedly confirming it, so he realized that it was not simple behind the matter.
Not to mention that what he thought was ordinary goods was actually extremely precious. After exploring the entire shipwreck area, it was a different story. Now Tan Xiangying only felt that he had already entered a muddy water of the main sect, and he didn't know whether he could get out, but at present, the situation seemed to be a little clearer.
"Elder Lu, Tan said something you don't like to hear. You should go back to the Yanyue Sect and check all the managers responsible for shipping. Maybe something else can be found?"
Tan Xiangying said that he seemed to be very sure that it was a problem that the Yanyue Sect itself had.
Lu Bozhong was not angry this time, pondered for a moment, and said, "I think this matter is not that simple. If the disciples of the sect have no other reason, how could they be so bold? Most of them have outsiders who have intervened in it."
Tan Xiangying thought for a while and said, "External people? Not necessarily. Is it..." He looked up and pointed at the sky, and said, "Is it quiet recently?"
Lu Bozhong didn't say anything for a moment. He knew that Tan Xiang had suspected that someone had intervened in the Yuanhui Sect. In fact, this thought flashed through his mind. However, he had been in the sect for a long time, and he was not as unstoppable as this thief leader, and there were outsiders nearby, so he could not speak to death.
Xia Pingsheng was on the side and said coldly: "No matter what, this incident involves our natural work and things. Now you have a distinction between them and do your own things. Next, no matter how your sect is pursuing, if you still have the idea of attacking the Yan Mansion, don't blame me, Xia for being rude!"
After hearing this, Lu Bozhong couldn't help but frown. Everyone knew that if the Yanyue Sect had no result in investigation, it would sooner or later in the region. Xia Pingsheng said this to be out of trouble. It was not wrong, but in front of the Yanyue Sect, a non-cultivist workshop spoke so hard that he had not encountered it for many years.
Lu Bozhong was about to speak, but Tan Xiangying winked at him.
After Xia Pingsheng took Yan Kaiting and Fu Mingxuan away, Tan Xiangying explained his eyes just now and said, "Elder Lu, it's a turbulent time, so we should not set up another powerful enemy. I have fought with Xia Pingsheng. Although this person is in the real world, I will lose ten moves under him. Even if it is the Yanyue Sect, it will probably alarm the head and the elders of the Tai?"
Lu Bozhong's face was as gloomy as if water was about to drip out. He left a "goodbye" and disappeared with a few managers.
By the Heishui River, in the village.
Xiang Yao, wearing a feathered suit, stood in front of the woman in a light dress, with a cold look, not at all the doting appearance he faced Linxi.
"Master, I have arranged everything as you ordered. Blood Spear and Yun Duxing are not related to it. If they want to hand in front of the sect, they must use it for us."
The woman in the light-colored dress was the charming woman who had just greeted Yan Kaiting and others. At this time, she did not have the charming expression she had just looked, but was kneeling respectfully in front of Xiang Yao.
"Yunduxing? What do we want Yunduxing to do in the Flower Temple? What we want is the strange fire of the Yan family! Only by breaking or replacing the blood contract of Yan's court can we get the earth fire."
Xiang Yao looked at her, chuckled, and said, "Although you and Linxi are both my disciples, Linxi is a bit more talented than you, and she has taken the lead in her cultivation. She is a bit stricter to you, and it is also for your own good."
"Don't waste your efforts on you."
The woman in the light-colored dress looked shaking, and her face turned slightly red. She couldn't tell whether she was inspired or guilty. She replied softly: "Thank you, Master, I understand."
After saying that, Xiang Yao Yuyi waved her clothes and brought a breeze. In a blink of an eye, the person had disappeared.
The woman kneeling on the ground slowly stood up and looked at the Black Water River that was shining under the moonlight outside Yun Duxing, and her expression became even colder.
In Yan Mansion in Yujing, Yan Kaiting had just returned to the yard and had not sat firmly, Dieyi hurriedly ran over with the hem of her skirt.
"Master!Master! No, then something happened to Li Liang!"
Yan Kaiting almost choked on his throat with a mouthful of tea and said hurriedly: "What's the matter? Tell me slowly, don't scare me."
"Oh, Dieyi did not mean to scare you! Just now, the little lady of the Li Liang family came to the mansion and said that Li Liang hadn't been home for many days, and he didn't care about her. Could it be that there was someone outside? I thought to myself, did Li Liang say that his wife was sick and ran home, but I felt that something seemed wrong, so I scattered the little lady back, saying that Li Liang had something important under his master's hands recently. What do you think about this matter next?"
Yan Kaiting was shocked, pondered for a moment, and said, "How many days have Li Liang been gone?"
Dieyi thought for a moment and replied, "It's been about four days. The night you went to Weiqing to attend the banquet, I said I was going home."
Yan Kaiting asked again hurriedly: "How did he know that his wife was sick? What did his wife ask someone to take for him?"
"Oh, that's right? A little boy came to the door, saying that someone was rumoring his wife from outside the mansion. Li Liang ran out as soon as he heard this. When he came back, he shouted in a hurry that his wife had a fever and wanted to go home. However, I found out from his wife that his wife didn't seem to say this."
Yan Kaiting was suddenly shocked. With such a strange situation, Li Liang probably had someone else's way of doing things. However, although Li Liang had a title of entourage, except for the higher monthly rate, he had no real power in the craftsman's mansion. Who would have to deal with such a person?
Li Liang's personality is considered to be bullying the poor and charming the superiors. He is just a follower who arranges food, drink and entertainment, and has no expertise in the management and equipment making of craftsmen.
Yan Kaiting put him by his side. One reason was that although the other party had all kinds of problems, he was loyal and had no choice but to do things. In addition, he was in the chaos in Yan's mansion, and he could not keep truly talented people around him.
After all, Li Liang has been the person he has been with for the longest time. Over the years, he has been raising a cat and still has feelings for him.
Yan Kaiting said in a deep voice: "Who do you still remember that little boy?"
Seeing that Yan had a court look extremely ugly, Dieyi hurriedly said, "Remember, remember, I'm a subordinate in the east, so I'll call people in."
Yan Kaiting sat there for a few breaths, then stood up impatiently, clenched his fists and looked in a direction in the mansion, and his eyes were about to burst into flames.
If Li Liang had no enemies, there was no need to think too much about it. It must be related to Hu Donglai and his group. But what did they want to get from Li Liang? At this time when he was picking him to Weiqing, Yan Kaiting suddenly had a sense of ominous premonition in his heart.
After a while, Dieyi led the little boy to the yard.
"Hurry, tell Mr. Yan, what happened that day? Oh, don't cry!"
The waiter was still young and could only go in and out of the backyard. At this moment, he saw Yan Kaiting looking like he was trying to eat people. He was so scared that he trembled. The more he was afraid, the more he couldn't speak clearly, and finally he started to cry.
"Who asked you to pass the message that day?" Yan Kaiting relaxed his expression, and did not want to make things too difficult for the child who was in charge of the house.
