Chapter 5: Three Shadows
() Enter the stone gate and go down the stairs. After several twists and turns, Ao Jue finally arrived inside the underground palace.
At this time, the underground palace was still in the construction stage, so as soon as Aojue entered the underground palace, he saw many figures working. The workers who worked here would receive generous rewards, and all they paid was for themselves. However, these workers
They all come from poor families and are not young men, so they still like this job very much.
The underground palace was huge and tortuous, and many of the inner chambers were connected. Aojue walked in the underground palace for a while and after several twists and turns, he arrived at his destination. At this time, there were already people here.
"Master." Tie Biao saluted Ao Jue with a boy of twelve or thirteen years old.
"Tie Biao, can he fulfill my request?" Ao Jue sat down on a stone seat and said solemnly.
"Master, this child is the smartest among the many children of the servants in the village, and his martial arts qualifications are also very high. More importantly, he has not started practicing martial arts until now. He fully meets the conditions required by the master." Tie Biao said respectfully.
said.
"What's your name? What do you know?" Ao Bi asked the child next to Tie Biao.
"Master Qi, my name is Xu He. I can read and cook and wash clothes." After saying this, Xu He paused and looked up in confusion and asked, "Can you fight and settle down?"
"Have you ever won a fight?" Aojue asked with a smile.
"I won, but they couldn't beat me, but they often attacked me, but then I fought back." Xu He nodded.
"Call back? How did you do it?" Aojue asked with some confusion.
"I actually beat them sap when they came home. Yes, it's sap. That's what my father told me." Xu He said nervously, as if he was a little afraid that Ao Jue would avenge the other children.
"Master, this boy Xu He is not like other children. He is very active. He often goes outside the village to play with other children. He has been hanging around in the market for a long time, and he has learned to be naughty." Tie Biao added at the side.
Said like.
"Very good, very good. Xu He and I ask you if you are willing to work for me and swear not to betray me for the rest of your life?" Ao asked Xu He seriously.
"I, Xu He, swear to God that I will be loyal to the young master, otherwise I will be struck by lightning." Xu He immediately knelt down and swore. This child who has been in the market for a long time is often bullied by other children. Naturally, he wants to get ahead. Now the opportunity is right in front of him.
There is no possibility of letting go.
"Very good, Tie Biao will take him down, find someone to train him for a month and then send him to Tianxiahui. From now on, his contact with the villa will be at the Sanjue Building near Tianxiahui. His code name will be 'Nighthawk'."
Ao Jue nodded with satisfaction and said to Tie Biao.
Tie Biao took Xu He down, and soon he led a young man in his twenties in. This man exuded the aura of a warrior and was not weak at all.
"Young Master, his name is Tieshan. He is my cousin and a guard leader of Aojian Villa. Their family has lived in Aojian Villa for several generations. There is no problem with loyalty." Tie Biao handed over to Aojue.
said.
"Tieshan, how far has your martial arts cultivation reached?" Ao asked Tieshan.
"Young master, I am ashamed that I am only a second-rate master." Tieshan replied. Seeing that his cousin and young master spoke so solemnly, his tone was also a little dignified.
"According to your estimation, can you reach the level of a first-class master within ten years? I'm talking about a master among first-class masters." Aojue asked.
"Ten years? My subordinate's qualifications are not very good. Unless I have excellent martial arts for me to learn, it will be... very difficult." Tieshan said hesitantly.
"Very good, I will find a way to get you a superior martial arts. I hope you won't disappoint me." Aojue said.
"Don't worry, young master, as long as I have superior martial arts for me to learn, my subordinate will definitely become a master among the first-class masters within ten years." Tieshan assured.
"In two months, you will go to the border to join the army. The villa will provide you with sufficient funds. When you get to the army, you must make friends with senior officials and treat your soldiers favorably. You must slowly accumulate your prestige in the army. The most important thing is
You must control at least 70% of the troops at the border within fifteen years, but from the beginning to the end you cannot reveal to others that you are a member of Sword Worship Villa." Aojue said seriously.
"This, is this going to...?" Tieshan was shocked by Ao Jue's words, but was interrupted by Tie Biao before he could finish his words.
"These are not questions you should ask. You just need to do what the young master told you." Tie Biao said in a stern tone, not being polite at all because Tieshan was his cousin.
"Give him training for two months, then send him to the border. His future codename will be 'Tiemian', and then open a shop there to keep in touch." Ao told Tie Biao.
Tie Biao immediately took Tieshan out, and soon after he brought a middle-aged man in.
"Young Master, he is Huang Quan, the youngest steward of our villa. He loves to make careful calculations and is very smart. His wife and children are also from the villa." Tie Biao pointed to the man beside him and said to Ao Jue.
"Huang Quan, I want you to open a shop in Luo City. Are you willing to go?" Ao Jue asked.
"My subordinates must obey the young master's instructions and work hard to do it well," Huang Quan said.
"Remember, your visit to Luo City is not just as simple as opening a shop. You are also responsible for collecting intelligence about Luo City. Tie Biao will explain the specific matters to you in detail. From now on, you will use the code name 'Qianye' and
Contact the Villa, and remember that without my call, you will never take the initiative to come to the Sword Worship Villa in the future, nor can you tell the outside world that you are from the Sword Worship Villa." Ao Jue added, but he knew that Luocheng was the thousand-year-old demon named Emperor Shitian.
The second lair has to be cautious.
After Xu He, Tieshan and Huang Quan all left, Ao Jue and Tie Biao stood opposite each other in the underground palace, their faces a little solemn. After all, this was the first time they sent spies to the outside world.
"Tie Biao, you choose three more people in the village to follow them and be responsible for surveillance. If anyone dares to betray Aojian Villa, he will be cleaned up, but be careful not to be discovered." Ao said to Tie Biao.
"Don't worry, young master, I will do it even if you don't tell me. I will never let anyone threaten Sword Worship Villa." Tie Biao nodded and replied. Sword Worship Villa is also his home, and he will naturally make every effort to do so.
Come maintain this home.
"By the way, Tie Biao, I have one more thing for you to do." Ao Jue seemed to have remembered something and said suddenly.
"Master, I wonder what you want me to do?" Tie Biao asked.
"You personally collect one hundred boys and one hundred girls aged seven or eight, and then place them in a secluded and remote place, and then ask the two best gentlemen to teach them how to read and write. You must keep it confidential. I want
Cultivate some secret power for Sword Worship Villa." Ao Jue said.
"Don't worry, young master, I know what to do." Tie Biao said.
"Okay, then you go and do your work." I am still very relieved about Tie Biao Aojue, and this guy is also a ruthless person, he will do things neatly and will never leave any tail.
After Tie Biao left, Ao Jue went to the cellar in the underground palace. Here were the wine, grapes and other things that Tie Biao secretly brought. Ao Jue was a good drinker in his previous life, so he wanted to drink good wine when he grew up.
He started brewing it now. Fortunately, he still remembered a few recipes of the wine from his previous life in his mind.
The next day, everyone in Baijian Villa knew that Xu He, Tieshan, and Huang Quan were kicked out of Aojian Villa because they angered Ao Jue. At first, Aosheng and his wife were a little confused, but these people also
He wasn't an important person, so after Ao Jue acted coquettishly, he didn't ask any more questions.
In fact, these three people were sent away by Tie Biao to carry out their mission and complete Ao Jue's order.
