Datang: Longevity for Thousands of Years, Exposed by Xiao Sizi

Chapter 104 Catch the murderer of Xiao Sizi case and talk!
When the news came back to Wangyun Inn, Qin Changye was tinkering with some things.

Summer is coming, and he wants to get some ice.

Such actions have occurred in other dynasties before, and they are just continuing now.

Qin Changye was writing down the materials needed to make ice when a pigeon flew in with a letter tied to its feet.

Qin Changye saw this and seemed to be thinking about something.

There is a pattern on the dove, and this pattern can only be drawn by the twelve guardian gods, and the pattern that each guardian god can draw is very different.

The pattern on this pigeon is exclusive to the Rabbit.

If he remembered correctly, Maotu was in charge of tracking down Kaiyang recently.

"I haven't received a letter in such a long time, and now it's coming out all of a sudden. Is there a result?"

Qin Changye's eyes flickered.

Maotu is also an immortal person. She was immortal during the Three Kingdoms period. Qin Changye understands this little girl and she will only disturb him when there is a result.

Of course, this was during those years.

Now hundreds of years have passed, they haven't seen each other for hundreds of years, maybe the little girl's personality has changed.

Shake your head and don't think about it anymore.

Qin Changye took the letter from the pigeon's feet and opened it.

[Kaiyang has understood, please come, ancestor. 】

Just a few words, but they contain extremely shocking information.

Qin Changye laughed: "Sure enough, this kid is still the same as before, only bothering me when the results are out."

As Qin Changye spoke, he lit a candle and burned the letter.

After doing all this, he walked out of the house.

"Wait for little Sizi to come over, and tell the little guy that I might be back later."

Qin Changye talked to the air as he walked.

However, is it really air?
Behind Qin Changye's figure that was getting farther and farther away, a man slowly jumped from the roof to the place where he was talking, and half-knelt in front of Qin Changye.

"Take orders."

After that, just a few blinks.

He then disappeared.
.
….…….….….….
Two days later.

At the last agreed time.

The sun hasn't come out yet, it's early morning.

In the early morning, the sunshine enters my ears and the subtle thoughts enter my heart.

Today, the sky is still weary of autumn. The sun is hanging on the horizon, and seems to be about to rise. A few red clouds appear, covering the pale sky on the horizon.

It can be seen that today is an extremely beautiful day.

But for some people, it is not so good.

For example, Bai Yuncai who has been under surveillance.

Bai Yuncai is now in a warehouse, looking as if he is facing a formidable enemy.

The reason why he was like this was because he had been forced into a desperate situation. This was a warehouse. There were several people in front of Bai Yuncai, and they were all masters of the Dali Temple.

There were more Dali Temple masters present now than he had seen in the restaurant two days ago, and Lu Qing was the one who led them.

now,

Lu Qing brought many experts from the Dali Temple and surrounded Bai Yuncai at this moment, leaving him with no way out.

"Bai Yuncai, you are Kaiyang, right? Now you have absolutely no way out." Lu Qing looked at him and said slowly.

Bai Yuncai's face was cold and he said in a deep voice, "Lu Shaoqing, how did you know that I am the legendary Kaiyang?!"

Although the words were questions, he did not deny his identity as Kaiyang.

I was just curious about how Lu Qing saw through me.

"You've been moving too much these past two days."

After Lu Qing finished speaking, he made way for him.

Cao Gongyun, the person who became the most crucial person to destroy Kaiyang, stepped forward.

Bai Yun was stunned.

At this moment, Cao Gongyun had an extremely frightened look on his face. This was mainly because he lived in fear of Kaiyang day and night. Even though he was sure of victory and Kaiyang was surrounded, he was still very scared.

It's a fear that comes from deep within.

"Mr. Kai...Mr. Kaiyang, I once had the honor of seeing you delivering letters to other stars in the Big Dipper. In the past two days, you have released two carrier pigeons, both of which were similar practices."

"In addition, I have also had the honor of seeing the jade ring in your hand once. Only you would wear it, and it is also the most crucial evidence."

Cao Gongyun spoke with trembling voice and was extremely cautious.

"So it's you, Cao Gongyun, ah Cao Gongyun. All my plans were ruined by you."

Kaiyang smiled helplessly, his face filled with sadness.

"Kaiyang, now the evidence is solid. If you dare to assassinate His Highness Xiao Sizi, you should bear the wrath of His Majesty!!"

Lu Qing's eyes were sharp.

The words fell.

Bai Yuncai didn't take Lu Qing's threat seriously, but looked at the sky in the distance.

It was like a memory, but also like Lu Qing’s words, but not as important as what the sky said.

Today's sky is very blue, and the first rays of sunshine have already appeared.

Seeing this, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, he looked at Lu Qing, Cao Gongyun and others in front of him, narrowed his eyes, and said lightly: "Lu Qing, Lu Qing, your intelligence is really unimaginable. Now my Kaiyang has fallen into your hands. You can kill me or chop me up. It all depends on your arrangement."

"Anyway, all my men have been killed or wounded, and there is no way to turn the situation around."

Hearing this, Lu Qing said, "I'm glad you understand."

"Just now, I saw you staring at the sky. When my Dali Temple soldiers were driving you to a dead end, you were also staring at the sky."

"May I ask what is there in the sky that can make you so obsessed?"

When Bai Yun heard this, his expression changed slightly, with a hint of fear on his face.

But soon, he withdrew his fear.

"Lu Qing, stop talking nonsense. I will kill you or chop you up, it's all up to you!"

Bai Yun then changed the subject.

Lu Qing exhaled and said, "Of course, of course."

"Someone, catch him!!"

The words fell.

Several masters from the Dali Temple were dispatched and captured Kaiyang effortlessly.

"This Kaiyang was finally caught."

"Sir Shaoqing, congratulations. When we inform His Majesty this time, you will definitely be included in the reward."

Lu Shi came over with a smile on his face to congratulate.

Lu Qing smiled, bowed and said a few words in response.

Kaiyang...was caught.

Various things indicate that Baiyun is Kaiyang.

only…….
For some reason, Lu Qing always felt something was wrong.

There was always a missing piece in the jigsaw puzzle that should be solved in my mind.

He did not see the immortal person whom His Majesty valued.

"Is this my illusion? Or is there something else going on in this case?"

"Then why is Bai Yuncai staring at the sky?"

Lu Qing couldn't help but look up at the sky.

I always feel that the sky is hiding some unknown secrets.

........................

In the south of the city, next to the Confucius Temple.

Lotus pond.

Early this morning, a man in a purple robe was fishing here.

This person was very strange. He was actually fishing in the lotus pond.

There was also a chessboard next to it, only half played.

And the strangest thing is that because it was too early today, there was not even a single person around to appreciate the lotus flowers. At a glance, there was only one person in a purple robe fishing within a few hundred meters. It was extremely quiet.

"tread……."

At this time, the lotus pond welcomed new guests.

This person was wearing a black robe and holding the necessary fishing tools. He glanced at the purple-robed person in front of him and walked towards him.

She came to the purple-robed man, said nothing, and sat down quietly.

She picked up the fishing gear she had brought with her and installed them one by one. After she was done, she threw it out with a little force.

All his movements seemed natural, and he didn't look like a novice fishing for the first time.

Someone came, a man in a black robe wearing similar clothes to him. The man in the purple robe did not turn around to take a look, and the newcomer did not speak either.

The two of them maintained a quiet environment and a quiet atmosphere, and just fished quietly.

And soon.

The black-robed man took the bait.

He was an old hand and caught the fish easily.

"It's a crucian carp. It's a pity that it's a little thin. Don't you think so, old man?"

The man in black robe had a female voice. He put the crucian carp into the basin and continued to cast for fishing.

The purple robed man smiled and said, "That's true, but it's better than what I have done. I have been here all morning but haven't caught a single fish."

The man in black robe said calmly, "Fishing is a tricky thing. If the bait is too tender, too long, or too large, the fish will either fall off the hook immediately after touching it, or it will fall off the hook before the fish can hold it firmly in their mouth."

The purple-robed man nodded: "I'm grateful for your advice."

"No, this is also what my prince taught me. No matter how much attention and skills are required, sometimes it has something to do with luck. Otherwise, with my prince's skills, he would not return empty-handed sometimes."

The man in black robe talked freely.

After saying that, he took off his black hood, revealing his face.

she was.

It is one of the twelve guardian gods, the rabbit that has been biting Kaiyang recently! !
When she appeared, several men appeared around her and slowly blocked the venue.

The purple-robed man in front of him was not dangerous at all, was very talkative and looked amiable.

But the Rabbit dare not underestimate it at all. As the saying goes, a person's voice is like the shadow of a tree.

She knew very well the identity of the purple-robed man next to her.

The purple-robed man was not surprised by this, and continued his fishing calmly, then said with a smile: "I am very curious about how you, the guardian god, tracked me down."

"Since I entered Chang'an City, I have always been wearing a purple robe. The only people who know my identity are my two trusted subordinates."

"And they will either die or take the blame, but they will never reveal my identity."

"How did you see through it?"

Maotu retracted his gaze and replied: "Kaiyang, you found Bai Yuncai and tried to get him to pretend to be you. This is great."

"Your first move, Li Mo's existence, is just a discarded piece used to set off Bai Yuncai, making everyone think that Bai Yuncai is you."

"Bai Yuncai is patient enough, prestigious enough, and rich enough."

"It fits everyone's speculations about you. It can be said that the various intelligence reports about Bai Yuncai sent back from the Dali Temple were not only from them, but also from me, Maotu, who was known as a man of great insight. I also saw your shadow in Bai Yuncai."

"But Bai Yuncai's existence... is a mistake in itself. Or, you shouldn't have pushed him out as a pawn."

The purple-robed man was stunned for a moment and couldn't help asking, "Why? Isn't he perfect?"

Maotu chuckled and said calmly: "Bai Yuncai is indeed perfect, and he is a miniature of you in every aspect."

"But, until I learned that he had been staying at home for the past two days and had not done anything else, I realized that he was a fake, just like Li Mo."

"He also has a very fatal flaw, which is..."

"He doesn't like playing chess!!"

The words fell.

The purple-robed man's pupils shrank slightly.

He suddenly realized, "So that's how it is. It turns out that I have already revealed my true colors long ago, so that you have a basic idea of ​​me."

"However, you have never met me before, so how did you know that I like playing chess, or even that I am addicted to it?"

Maotu narrowed his eyes slightly and took out a letter from his arms.

"Old man, look at this and you will understand."

The old man took the letter with one hand without even turning his head.

When he saw that the envelope was dark black and had a Yin-Yang Bagua fish pattern on it, his face changed slightly.

but.

Without saying anything more, he continued to open the letter.

[In the Tang Dynasty, on March 3, after confirmation by Beichen and Yuheng, three candidates suitable to become candidate stars have been selected.]

[One of the candidates is the general of Youzhou. According to Yuheng's investigation, he is from a family of three. He likes to drink and often drinks until the next morning. He has a very heroic character, but he is only heroic on the surface. In secret, he is planning how to replace his immediate superior and take over the real power.]

[The second candidate is from a Yangzhou family. According to Yuheng's investigation, this person has accumulated most of Yangzhou's wealth. He is gentle and kind to the outside world, but arrogant and domineering inside. He has many personalities, many capable people under his command, and two sons.]

[The third candidate is a Yizhou merchant. According to Yuheng's investigation, the merchant has an ominous power and a bad family. He left Chang'an City and arrived in Yizhou. In just three years, he became one of the underground controllers of Yizhou. It is predicted that he is related to Chang'an City. There are people helping him in the emperor's land. He likes to play chess and regards chess as his life. He is also adventurous and likes to fight with opponents. He likes to go to the most dangerous place. He calls the most dangerous place the safest place.]

[The three candidates have been selected. We hereby call on all the Stars to gather at the Emperor's Place in Chang'an City on April 4th to discuss who the candidate for the Stars should be.]

Kaiyang finished reading and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"This letter appears to be the highest level letter of the Seven Stars. Only those who are from the major stars can get it. How come you, the guardian of the gods, also have it?"

Maotu took off his black robe, spread it out and said, "Old man, do you recognize this black robe?"

Kaiyang could see that the black robe had the same Yin-Yang Bagua fish pattern as his purple robe, and its structure was even more elaborate than his purple robe.

Black robe….
There are seven star letters in my palm….
The old man narrowed his eyes slightly, as if thinking about something.

Immediately,

As if thinking of something incredible, his pupils widened slightly: "Has one of you, or one of your people, ever been a Star Person?"

"Or did you catch him?"

Maotu took back the black robe, sat down to fish again and said, "We didn't catch him, but he handed him to us personally."

"The old generation Kaiyang is different from you. You were selected by Yuheng and others in this era to replace the old generation Kaiyang."

"It's just because the old generation of Kaiyang was tired of this hundreds of years of confrontation, so he retreated behind the scenes, but for some reason, he handed the letter to us."

"In fact, at the beginning, I thought you were the old generation Kaiyang, our old rival, but after fighting for a few days, I found out that you were not him at all. And when the old generation Kaiyang handed the letter to us, I was even more certain... you were just a substitute."
