Chapter 74: Chapter 74 Only listening to music in a brothel can soothe my soul

[Lu: Don't believe No. 9, don't respond, don't respond, don't respond...]

In the quiet reception hall, Xu Qian'an stared at this sentence, cold sweat on his back.

Unspeakable fear filled his heart.

He drank a sip of tea in a trance, stunned for a moment, and broke free from the weird and terrifying atmosphere.

This "No. 6" should be the light spot I just clicked... What does he mean by this, is No. 9 lying to me?

If No. 9 is lying to me, why? Since No. 6 knew that No. 9 was lying to me, why didn't he tell me earlier?

If No. 9 is not trustworthy, then No. 6 is also worthy of suspicion.

I don't believe anyone.

Xu Qian'an took a deep breath, used his finger as a pen, and entered the information:

[San: Who are you? Why do you say No. 9 is not trustworthy? You are a member of the Tiandihui, right?]

[Lu: Yes. ]

He admitted it so readily...Xu Qian'an was silent for a few seconds and wrote:

[Three: What do you mean by what you said just now. ]

[Lu: The Earth Book belongs to the Tiandihui, and No. 9 is from the Earth Sect. They are a group of cruel and brutal lunatics and cannot be reasoned with. You must not have contact with them, or your life may be in danger. ]

[Three: How do you know that I have a connection with No. 9? ]

Xu Qian'an questioned.

[Lu: The fragment of No. 3 was sealed by the people of the Earth Sect, cutting off the ability to transmit books between us, and the people of the Earth Sect can lock No. 3 through the fragment of No. 9.

[This is why Taoist Master Jinlian gave up the fragment and gave it to you. ]

.... In other words, even if I don't trade with No. 9, he can still lock me through No. 9?

No wonder he didn't rush to urge me to return the item to its original owner, and gave me the initiative to choose the location.

No wonder he changed the subject yesterday when I asked Nine if the people from the Tiandihui could use the "Earth Book" to lock my location... Xu Qian'an recalled more details. No matter what I choose, he will make a profit. If I choose to trade, he can kill me by cheating. If I don't choose to trade, he can also delay time until he locks my location.

Fuck... Xu Qian'an's scalp tingled and he cursed in his heart.

Lu Hao continued to send messages: "But the Earth Book is one, we can still see your communication with Nine through the Earth Book, which is extremely helpless. Until you drip blood to recognize the master and establish a connection with me."

[Three: What should I do?]

[Lu: I hope you can return the Earth Book fragments to the Tiandihui. If you are worried, I will give you an address and you can have someone send it there. ]

Then my five hundred taels of gold... Xu Qian'an stared at the mirror and did not reply.

He doesn't believe anyone!

Lu Hao may not be a good person. He may be trying to trick me.

If I were so easy to fool, I would have gone to police school in vain...Xu Qiyan replied: [Three: The Book of Earth is the treasure of the Tiandihui, and Nine is from the Dizong. Does the Dizong covet the Book of Earth?]

According to the internal records of the night watchman, the Book of Earth is the treasure of the Taoist Dizong, and the Tiandihui is just a gangster organization.

But just now Lu Hao said that the Book of Earth belongs to the Tiandihui, and the Dizong covets it.

If Lu Hao can't give a reasonable explanation, Xu Qiyan will block him.

[Lu: The Book of Earth is the treasure of the Dizong, but that was in the past. It now belongs to the Tiandihui. And the Tiandihui was established by some members of the Dizong.] [Three: Why do you say that?]

[Lu: This matter involves a secret of the Dizong. I am not a member of the Dizong, so it is not convenient to disclose it.]

[Three: I understand, please leave an address. ]

[Lu: Yangshui Street in the inner city, the house opposite Zhang's silk shop, with a loquat tree planted in the yard. ]

Xu Qian'an has completely regained his composure at this time. He took a sip of the tea that was gradually losing temperature and tapped the table with his fingertips.

At present, there are three choices in front of him:

First, recognize No. 6 and send the mirror back. He can pay someone to send it. He doesn't have to consider No. 6's identity, and he is not afraid of No. 9's lock. Get out of it from now on. Second, trade with No. 9. The disadvantage is that you may face the danger of being robbed by the black. The advantage is that once the bet is right, you can get 500 taels of gold. Third, hand over the land book to the night watchman in exchange for merit.

If I were still the little fast hand in Changle County Yamen, I would definitely choose the first method, which is mainly stable.

But I am now a night watchman. In the capital of Dafeng, no matter how powerful the foreign forces are, they have to coil up if they are dragons and lie down if they are tigers... No, they don't even dare to enter the city.

I just joined the night watchmen, I have no merit and no resources, I can just use the earth book to exchange for a bright future.

The government office must be happy to accept this ancient treasure, and Wei Yuan, the great eunuch, will definitely not stand idly by.

Having made up his mind, Xu Qian'an returned the book, took back his waist badge from the clerk who was in charge of the case library, and left the warehouse in a hurry.

In an empty corner, he took out the items inside the jade mirror: military crossbow, bone- eroding poison, heart-protecting mirror, and the four hundred taels of silver notes returned

by Chun Ge.

After putting these things in his pocket, he came to the highest building of the night watchmen's government office: Haoqi Tower.

The guards at the bottom of the building stopped him.

Xu Qiyan took off his badge and said in a deep voice: "Quickly report to Lord Wei, Tongluo Xu Qiyan has a major incident to report."

The guard took the badge, confirmed it was correct, and looked at him: "Why don't you replace Yinluo, who is directly under him."

"Yinluo is not here, the situation is urgent, go quickly." Xu Qiyan was more resolute than him.

He didn't intend to let Li Yuchun know about this matter, or to be more precise, he didn't intend to let more people know about it.

Whether it's the Tiandihui or the Taoist Dizong, they are all big forces.

They may not dare to retaliate against the night watchman, but Xu Qiyan has a family.

This is the truth he understood when he was a policeman in his previous life.

Xu Qiyan must downplay his traces in this matter and let the people of Tiandihui and Dizong

ignore him. The two guards looked at each other, and one of them hurried into the building.

A few minutes later, the guard returned and said, "Go in, Lord Wei is waiting for you on the seventh floor."

Xu Qian'an was relieved. The powerful eunuch was willing to see him, which meant that his plan was halfway successful.

He immediately entered the building and quickly walked up the stairs to the seventh floor.

A black-clad official was waiting at the staircase, leading him through the corridor to a tea

room.

The tea room was empty, and a man in blue stood in the observation hall connected to it. Wei Yuan turned around and said gently, "What's the matter!"

He had handsome features, elegant temperament, white temples, and an indescribable vicissitude in his eyes.

He didn't look like a eunuch, but a scholar.

Xu Qi'an didn't dare to look directly at him, and bowed his head slightly: "I am here to see

Lord Wei. I have made a major discovery and I am here to report it."

As he spoke, he took out a small jade mirror from his arms, raised his hands high, and said in a

deep voice: "This is the Book of Earth, the most precious treasure of the Taoist Earth Sect."

The Book of Earth... Wei Yuan was stunned and stared at the small mirror: "How did you get

it?"

Xu Qi'an did not hide anything, and told the eunuch exactly how to get the mirror, how to receive information, and what happened in the case library.

He had no need to hide anything, because he got the mirror before joining the night watchmen, and it was his private property.

Even if he got the mirror after joining the night watchmen, it was the same reason.

Wei Yuan would not have a negative impression of him because of this.

The blue-clothed eunuch smiled and said: "Five hundred taels of gold?"

.... Boss, is your focus a little strange? Xu Qi'an smiled awkwardly, "I'm just seeking benefits

within a reasonable range."

Wei Yuan smiled gently, his eyes fell on the mirror again, and at this time, a line of words

appeared on the mirror:

[Jiu: Have you considered it? When will the transaction be made?]

The eunuch raised his lips and threw the mirror to Xu Qi'an: "The mirror has already recognized its owner with blood. Only you can reply. Tell him that the transaction location is

in the inner city Guiyue Tower, Luanfeng Heming Yajian. The time is set in one hour."

Xu Qi'an immediately gave a reply in the mirror.

[Jiu: Good! ]

Wei Yuan said: "You didn't reveal your identity and address. You handled it well. Go down.

Someone will take care of this matter."

Then what about my five hundred taels of gold...ah no, merits... Xu Qi'an asked in his heart.

He didn't dare to say it out loud, and said with a fist: "Yes!"

He didn't take the mirror with him and left the tea room directly. After leaving Haoqi Tower, Xu Qi'an felt very complicated. He felt relieved to have let go of the hot potato, but also felt sad for losing the treasure and five hundred taels of gold.

As for merits, although the eunuch did not mention it, Xu Qi'an could understand his status.

It was too cheap for a big boss to discuss the issue of "merits" with him with a small copper

gong.

Anyway, he should not treat me badly... Xu Qi'an left the night watchman's office with a heartache, and planned to go to the brothel to listen to some songs to comfort his mood.
