She began to explain the reason.
Xu Bai finally understood what was going on after Chu Yu’s explanation.
If the entire tunnel was related to Feng Shui, then Yun Zihai was the most important location in this Feng Shui.
He was the prefecture commander, and when he took over the position, he became the most important component of Feng Shui.
If the other party wanted to completely grasp the situation, he would either get rid of Yun Zihai or lure him out of Yunlai Manor.
“If you know Feng Shui, can you do it?”Xu Bai asked after Chu Yu finished speaking.
Chu Yu shook her head.” I’ve only seen it before, but I’m not a Feng Shui master. I’ve understood it before, but it’s only very shallow. I couldn’t tell what the tunnel was like previously.””
“And we can’t go out either.” “If we go out, Yunlai Mansion will be empty. It’s hard to guarantee that the other party won’t take this opportunity to attack
Lord Yun.””
If what Chu Yu said was true, then the other party only had two motives.
First, lure Yun Zihai out of Yunlai Mansion. Second, find an opportunity to kill
Yun Zihai.
“I understand now. I finally understand why the steward wanted to kill the previous prefecture magistrate.”” It turns out that the previous prefecture order is related to Feng Shui,” the masked leader shouted.” But at the critical moment, he was replaced by Lord Yun. So, even if we kill him, it won’t work. ‘”‘
Xu Bai rubbed his chin and fell into deep thought.
From the looks of it, Yun Zihai was now in extreme danger.
If the other party found an opportunity to kill Yun Zihai, then the plan would be complete. On the contrary, if they could not succeed, it would be equivalent to placing an unstable factor beside them.
“I didn’t expect that I would be so important.”Yun Zihai smiled bitterly and said, “I finally understand why His Majesty said that the waters of Yunlai Manor are very deep.””
It’s not just Deep Waters.” Xu Bai said,” In my opinion, His Majesty should have known about this long ago. As for why he hasn’t moved, I’m afraid he doesn’t know the location of the tunnel. Now, he’s using a trick to lure the snake out of its hole.”
With the Emperor’s temper, how could he let a fierce tiger sleep beside his bed?
He probably knew that there was a tunnel, but he did not know the exact location. And this location happened to be known by the Dark Tower of Great Yue State, so they took the opportunity to lure the snake out of its hole.
Xu Bai believed that it was not just Yunlai Mansion. There were probably important people planted in every place. They were just waiting for Dark Tower to take the initiative to pull in the net.
The Emperor played the role of the fisherman. The net was already cast, and he was just waiting for the fish from the Dark Tower to enter the net.
Old and cunning!
Xu Bai felt that this was the real cunning old fox.
Even though he was thousands of miles away, he still had to cast the net over and control it so precisely.
“I reckon that if we fail, there will be a second plan.”Xu Bai thought.
The leader of the masked men looked left and right. In the end, he couldn’t help but whisper,””l’ve already said what I should say, then… Can’t you give me a quick death?”
Even if they were seeking death, they were still so humble. The masked leader felt very uncomfortable.
Xu Bai saw that the masked leader was indeed not trying to extract any value. He raised his Ghost Head Blade and said,””Congratulations, you are the first one to die so comfortably.”
As the leader of the masked men looked relieved, Xu Bai raised his knife and chopped off the leader’s head.
After doing all this, before anyone could say anything, Xu Bai started doing his old job again.
Put away your saber and start searching!
He searched every corpse carefully, afraid that something was missing. Especially the masked man who used throwing knives. Xu Bai really wanted to
find the progress bar related to hidden weapons to make up for Maple Leaves Like Rain’s weakness.
Unfortunately, he did not find what he wanted.
Other than some money, there were only weapons left.
However, weapons were useless to him. Ghost Head Blade was already very handy now, and these weapons weren’t that great either. He didn’t want to change them.
After taking all the money, he realized that Yun Zihai and the others had turned their heads away as if they did not see it.
Killing and searching corpses, he knew how to do this.
Yun Zihai and the others had actually done a lot of work. Who didn’t have a past?
Chu Yu was the only one who stole glances at him from time to time. It was obvious that she had kept this good virtue firmly in her heart.
When Xu Bai was done, Yun Zihai asked,””Brother Xu, let’s return to the government office first.”
Today’s matter was too chaotic and he needed to hurry up and sort it out. This was obviously not the place to sort it out.
After returning, Yun Zihai planned to thoroughly investigate the government office to at least ensure that there were no more spies around him.
If he really did this again and again, he couldn’t afford to lose face.
After discussing for a while, they did not stay any longer and rushed towards the government office.
After returning to the government office, Xu Bai and the others did not return to their rooms. Instead, they gathered together and discussed the next plan.
This discussion lasted for nearly an hour.
During this period, everyone expressed their opinions and finally came up with a plan.
Since there were no more clues now, he would wait for the other party to attack.
Up until now, the other party’s goal was already very obvious. That was to make Yun Zihai his ultimate goal.
Then, they would use Yun Zihai as bait to fish out the person behind the scenes.
They would see who moved first, who moved first, and who couldn’t hold it in. There would be flaws.
“Turn light into darkness. I reckon that the other party is even more anxious than us.”Yun Zihai smiled.
They could wait and could afford to wait.
During the process of waiting, Xu Bai could keep up with the progress bar, Yun Zihai could handle the important matters in Yunlai Manor, and Chu Yu could attend classes. There was no problem at all..
