The two children, Zhu'er and Dou'er, nodded solemnly, opened the door and walked out without saying much.
Qiao Xianyong stayed alone in the room, thinking attentively about what Mrs. Wu had just heard in the west courtyard. It seemed that the strategy discussed with the master last night had worked. The Feitian Sect and others had indeed taken the bait, and they couldn't wait to do it tonight.
Go and take action against the Demon Sect. But there is one thing that Qiao Xianyong did not expect. Mrs. Wu was actually jealous of the position of Mu Ye, pretended by her senior sister, in the sect. Therefore, in order to achieve a great feat and win favor, tonight's plan was not approved by Ling Fei'er.
Agreed, it’s really unpredictable.
Qiao Xianyong thought again that his master said that he had other important things to do tonight, and the master and apprentice would find a chance to meet again tomorrow night. If there is nothing to do tonight, why not go out in secret to see the excitement of the Feitian Sect and the Demon Sect. Thinking of this
, I felt a little tired, so I covered myself with a soft quilt and closed my eyes to relax, and fell asleep soon after.
When he opened his eyes, it was already dark outside the window. It was already night, and he didn't know what time it was. Qiao Xianyong got out of bed, put on his robe and opened the door. Qier seemed to hear the movement in his room.
He hurriedly walked out and said with a smile, "Young Master has been sleeping for a long time. I was thinking that there is nothing going on with Madam tonight. It would be better for Young Master to sleep more, so I didn't wake him up for dinner at the usual time. Now Young Master must be
You must be hungry, I'll heat up some food."
As soon as Qier said this, Qiao Xianyong felt a growl in his stomach, and then he smiled slightly and said, "When you say so, I am indeed hungry. Just eat whatever you have to cushion your stomach. I won't go anywhere tonight."
After eating, I will go back to my room to read and meditate." Then he looked around alertly and asked in a low voice, "Where is Mrs. Liu?"
Qier made a face and said, "In the evening, Mrs. Zhang came in a fierce manner. For some reason, her face looked extremely proud. Mrs. Liu made some sarcastic remarks to her. The two had a quarrel, and Mrs. Zhang became angry.
He left with a bang. Now Mrs. Liu seems to be very unhappy, saying that the young master does not need her to take care of him when he is sleeping, so he just ate some porridge and stayed in his room."
When Qiao Xianyong heard this, he was cautious. While following Qi'er into the side room where he usually ate, he helped Qi'er put the porridge, side dishes, noodles, etc. on the table, and asked in a deep voice, "Then
Did you hear what they were arguing about?"
Qier stopped what she was doing and saw that Qiao Xianyong had already picked up the chopsticks to pick up the vegetables, so she recalled it carefully and said hesitantly, "The two of them had an argument in Mrs. Liu's house. I was outside, so what I heard was not the same.
Very clear, but I seemed to vaguely hear them saying that good things don't happen to me, and you want to make great achievements again, so you flatter them and so on. I didn't know what they were talking about, so I simply didn't pay them any attention."
Qiao Xianyong thought about it and roughly understood what it meant. He guessed that it was because Mrs. Wu had ordered Mrs. Wu to monitor her day and night, so she was unable to participate in tonight's big operation. Mrs. Zhang probably used this matter deliberately to annoy her.
She said that she could not achieve any great achievements. Even though they are both old women, it is really ridiculous for them to fight openly and secretly. Qiao Xianyong thought about it while eating, and felt that it was extremely sweet. In the blink of an eye, he had drank two large
A bowl of eight-bean porridge, three large white steamed buns, and two plates of cooked beef cut by Qier. Qier couldn't help but laugh when she saw how delicious Qiao Xianyong was eating.
After the meal, Qiao Xianyong chatted with Qier for a while, and then went back to his room. Before going back to the room, he took a look at Granny Liu's room, but saw that the candles had been blown out, so she probably had a rest.

After Qiao Xianyong returned to his room, he put on his night clothes, counted the time, and was ready to go out at any time. But it was still early, so he picked up a book and flipped through it casually. After an unknown amount of time, he kept reading.
Looking out through the crack of the small open window, I saw that the candles in Qier's house had also been extinguished, and the whole yard was quiet.
I don't know how long it took, but Qiao Xianyong was reading a book in his room with sore eyes. Suddenly he heard a very slight sound of pushing the door. His heart moved, and he immediately put down the book in his hand and leaned to the crack of the window that had not been closed.
Next to me, I looked out. I saw Mrs. Liu's house door slowly opening, and a person emerged from inside. The person was dressed in black night clothes. Although she was tightly wrapped, her figure and hat could not be seen.
Judging from the gray-white hair exposed below, there is no doubt that she is Mrs. Liu.
Qiao Xianyong perked up. It was almost midnight, and Mrs. Liu was out of the room at this time. She probably had no other important things except to secretly participate in tonight's action and want a share of the action. Thinking of this, he saw that Mrs. Liu had already
After walking a distance of more than ten meters, he gently pushed the door of his room and followed softly.
Although Mrs. Liu usually works in the courtyard and looks rough with hands and feet, at this moment she doesn't look like an elderly woman in her fifties or sixties. Her legs and feet are very nimble. Qiao Xianyong didn't notice it at all. He had known that this house
Most of the people were skilled in martial arts, but they didn't dare to be careless at this time, for fear of losing Mrs. Liu. Fortunately, Mrs. Liu was probably anxious, so her steps were unavoidable in a hurry, and she didn't care whether there were other people nearby.
Like the courtyard where Qiao Xianyong lived, Wu Mansion was quiet and dark. Occasionally, there were a few wind lanterns swaying brightly or dimly. There were no traces of large groups of people moving out. Qiao Xianyong thought, either these people had already set off.
, or they left from other places, so there is nothing unusual about Wu Mansion. He stared at Mrs. Liu closely, and saw Mrs. Liu leaping out of the courtyard wall. Qiao Xianyong counted silently in his mind.
At the count of five, he also climbed up the wall and saw Mrs. Liu's short black figure running towards the west of the city.
Qiao Xianyong also jumped off the wall. As soon as he lifted his breath, the internal energy of the Black Stone Spirit immediately surged out from his Dantian, filling his limbs with heat. Qiao Xianyong started Qinggong and followed Po Liu's figure effortlessly.
He went up, but there was always a gap of more than ten meters between the front and back, so as not to be discovered by Mrs. Liu. However, he found that his inner strength at this time was used in Qinggong, and it was not difficult to keep up with the speed of Mrs. Liu. He didn't know why.
Liu Po's Qing Gong was mediocre, but it was because her cultivation of the Black Stone Spirit had reached a certain level.
This was not the time to think about these things. I saw that Mrs. Liu seemed to be very familiar with the route. She must have studied or inquired about it in advance. She only hesitated slightly at a few forks, identified the direction, and continued to the route without hesitation.
Running forward.
The two ran in tandem for more than half an hour, and they could see a lake-like place in the dark distance. Qiao Xianyong murmured in his heart, could this be the "Beihaizi" that the Taoist said?
There was no doubt that it was a lake. I saw that Mrs. Liu had obviously seen this lake in front of her. She seemed to be energetic again, and she couldn't help but run forward faster.
The lake is not very large, but the water surface looks extremely clear at night, with not even a duckweed on it. On the other side of the lake, Qiao Xianyong saw a large row of undulating houses from a distance. What was wonderful was that,
At night, these houses all look the same style, with black tiles and white walls, rather like the architectural colors of the southern water towns. They look very different from many other houses in the capital. If you are right, this large area of houses is Laodao.
This is the resting place for those in the demonic sect.
Qiao Xianyong couldn't help but slow down. In such a large house, not to mention where the main force of the Demon Sect is, there are many elite soldiers and generals under Mrs. Wu who are secretly hiding in the corners. Mrs. Liu, it doesn't matter.
, after all, she was one of their own, and the most they could blame was her recklessness. If she appeared in their sight without knowing what she meant, it might cause serious trouble.

Just as he was lost in thought, his shoulder was lightly tapped. This shocked Qiao Xianyong, who was deep in thought. He immediately stopped in his tracks, and with lightning speed, he drew out the ink sword from his back with his right hand.
I heard a low but familiar voice say, "Brother Qiao, don't worry, it's my old Taoist priest."
Qiao Xianyong took a closer look and saw that the person standing opposite him was indeed the skinny old Taoist priest he had seen in the Nancheng market this morning, pretending to be his master, with a sallow complexion, staring at him with a smile. When Qiao Xianyong saw this, he
He put the sword back into its scabbard, raised his hand to the old Taoist and said, "Taoist Master, you really scared me. Why are you here too? Where is my master?"
The old Taoist patted Qiao Xianyong on the shoulder and said softly, "Don't follow that old woman, come with me. Your master has something important to do, so he asked me to come here first. He said you might come to join in the fun, so
If so, I will help you. Sure enough, hey, a wise disciple is better than a master, so your master must have guessed it."
Qiao Xianyong blushed and said, "The Taoist priest is laughing at me. Sure enough, Master was right. During the day, I heard Mrs. Wu from the Feitian Sect in my house giving orders to her subordinates to attack the Demon Sect at night, so I thought of coming to take a look.
Taoist priest, I don’t know what to call you, but it’s not convenient during the day. My nephew is rude.” After saying this, he bowed to the old Taoist again.
The old Taoist waved his hands and said with a smile, "You don't have to be polite. Your master is my old friend. With this level, we are also old friends. My Taoist name is Chuanyun, you can call me Taoist Master Chuan."
, Taoist Master Yun is fine, Taoist Master Chuanyun doesn’t matter." His eyes suddenly brightened and he said, "Or what name do you think is nice? Just give me one!"
Qiao Xianyong couldn't help crying or laughing after listening to the old Taoist's words, but he muttered "Taoist Master Chuanyun" in his mouth, but suddenly something came to his mind. He grabbed the sleeve of the old Taoist's robe and said, "Taoist Master, could it be that you are the ancient spirit legendary in the world?"
The heir of the sect, Taoist Priest Jiutian Xuanming Chuanyun?" When this name came out of his mouth, Mr. Qiao couldn't help but feel shaken, and his face trembled.
