Although the cultivator who was taking black life was good, he could not compete with Xu Changqing, not to mention that Xu Changqing was still using a plot, and the man had no room for resistance. After the man came to his residence with the envelope, Xu Changqing cast a spell to make him faint, took out the envelope from him, took it apart without leaving any trace, took it back, and then left without knowing it.

On the way back to the teahouse, Xu Changqing thought about the content on the envelope in his mind, and was also puzzled in his heart who issued this task and what was the purpose of doing this?

It's a coincidence that this black life was related to the Lord of the Rat Nest Cave. The content was to steal a jade plaque from his mansion. In the mission introduction in the envelope, the person who posted the mission introduced the shape of the jade plaque and its specific location in the mansion. There was even a schematic diagram on it that marked the patrol route and the defense array of the Lord of the Rat Nest Cave, which was almost drawing a stealing route for those who took over the black life.

Although Xu Changqing didn't know about such things as taking black jobs in Qingzhou, he could also feel that the black job in his hands is a bit weird now. Not to mention why the task publisher wrote the task introduction so detailed, even the intelligence collection done by the person who should have taken the task was completed for them. Just because the task is so unrigorous, it makes people feel that something is strange.

Since when he had contacted the black life broker before, Xu Changqing knew that there were more than one person who took on this black life, and depending on the situation, there might be more than ten people who took on this life. As the saying goes, there are many people and so many people taking a task, it is enough to make this task without any secret. Moreover, this life also involves a big man in the Evil Fire City who is in charge of real power. The person who took on the task may not report this matter to the Lord of the Rat Nest and get benefits directly from the Lord of the Rat Nest. Even if those benefits are not as good as the final reward of the task, the process of obtaining is very easy and there is no need to bear any danger. You can get it by just walking a little bit and talking.

Once the mission is leaked, the Lord of the Rat Nest Cave will inevitably adjust the guard and defensive magic array of the mansion, and even directly wear the things to be stolen on his body to store. After all, the jade token is not very big, and carrying it with you will not have any impact.

Because this black job itself has too many suspicious points and loopholes, no matter how stupid a person is, he will not do this, so Xu Changqing couldn't help but begin to doubt the real intention of the person who released this task.

"Did you want to use the trick of sounding the east and attacking the west?" An idea quickly emerged in Xu Changqing's mind.

Although this idea is just a guess and there is no substantial evidence, Xu Changqing feels that this idea may be correct.

If those who received this task from the black broker in the teahouse were regarded as targets to attract the attention of the Lord of the Rat Nest, then the extremely strange parts of the task were reasonable. The mission publisher did not care whether the person who took the task could finally obtain the jade tablet. His purpose was to use these baits to attract the attention of the Lord of the Rat Nest and the guards of the mansion. He might even use these people to create some unrest, making the Lord of the Rat Nest and the Lord of the Rat Nest and run, and he could easily sneak into the Lord of the Rat Nest and find what he was looking for.

"It seems that the owner of the Rat Nest Cave will be very busy these two days!" Thinking of this, Xu Changqing couldn't help but smile, followed him into the crowd, and soon disappeared into the dense crowd on the street.

As Xu Changqing expected, the owner of the Rat Nest Cave who returned to the mansion became a little busy, but it was not because of this black life mission, but because of the paper crane that had been passed to his hand before casting spells.

After reading the content written in the paper crane, Wu Lie, the owner of the rat nest cave, did not immediately believe what was written on the paper, but did not ignore it. Instead, he calmly recruited his two most capable subordinates into the study, and then ordered the guards to isolate the outside of the study, activate the isolation array in the study to prevent anyone from eavesdropping. After confirming the safety, he handed the paper to his two subordinates.

The first person who took the note was Liao Xiang, a confidant who was regarded as a military advisor by Wu Lie. This person is also quite famous in the mountain world, and most of his reputation comes from his wisdom. Many people believe that Wu Lie can climb to a high position step by step from the inconspicuous small leader of the Rat Nest in the mountain world and become the owner of the Rat Nest. In addition to his strong strength, it is more due to Liao Xiang's plan.

It is also because of this that when Wu Lie was forced to leave the mountain world and go to Qingzhou to avoid disaster, many people contacted Liao Xiang, hoping to take Liao Xiang back to his command, but they were eventually rejected by Liao Xiang. It is not difficult to see that the relationship between these two is called the master and the subordinate, but is actually brother, and the relationship is extraordinary.

There were not many words on the note. Liao Xiang finished reading it quickly. While handing the note to another colleague, he also expressed his thoughts and said, "This matter has long been as expected. After all, lord, you have mastered such an important rat path now. Not to mention that the guys in the Evil Fire City are coveting this, even the bullshit families in the mansion also want to take this rat path into their own hands. If we had not had a deep background and strong strength, those guys would not just send some people to lurk in the mansion as their eyes and ears, I'm afraid they would come directly to the door and snatch the ownership of this rat path from your lord." As he said, he paused for a moment and said, "Compared to what forces the ears and ears written on the note came from? I'm more curious about where this note came from?"

"Is it important where the note comes from?" The other man put down the note in his hand, looked at his clever colleague in confusion, and asked in confusion: "Shouldn't we focus on how to solve these eyes and ears?"

The person who spoke was named Wu Gang, who was Wu Lie's own brother. He has been with Wu Lie since childhood. Although he was a cousin, his relationship was so close that he was closer than his brother. The two saved each other's lives more than once. If Wu Lie can still believe in a person without reservation in this world, then it is Wu Gang.

Although Wu Gang himself is not weak and has reached the level of being comparable to the elites of the lower realm of heaven, and less than one can beat him in the mountain world, his mind is very simple, he does not have much wisdom, is reckless and direct in doing things, and often causes trouble. Wu Lie will offend the great figures of the Litian Palace, which is largely because of Wu Gang's reckless behavior. Wu Gang is also very guilty about this. After joining Wu Lie to Qingzhou, his personality and temper have been restrained a lot. If he had changed to the past and was still in the mountain world, he would probably have taken people to arrest and execute all the people written in the note, and would not have thought about things calmly like now.

"Compared with those hidden eyes and ears that have been exposed, this mysterious person who has not been exposed is the danger we need the most." Liao Xiang pointed to the note on the table, looked at Wu Lie who was thinking and Wu Gang with a confused look on his face, and explained: "We had expected that the hidden eyes and ears and ears will be lurking in the mansion, but we secretly investigated three times, but we did not find any abnormalities in the mansion. But now an unknown mysterious person or mysterious force easily discovered these things that we investigated several times but did not find out. It can be seen that this mysterious person or force even knows the actual situation of our mansion even exceeds that of us, the owners of the mansion. Commander Wu Gang, do you still think it is not dangerous now?"

Hearing this, Wu Gang couldn't help but take a breath and his face became serious. He did not understand the deeper meaning of Liao Xiang's words, and just considered the issue from the safety of the mansion. Since the other party could silently investigate the situation in the mansion so clearly, he could naturally sneak into the mansion and assassinate Wu Lie silently, which forced him, as the commander of the guard, to worry about the safety of the mansion.

"This should not be malicious!" Wu Lie said abruptly: "From the means of sending this note to me, it would not be difficult for that person to assassinate me on the street, so there is no need to do so much to make us not only alert but also discover hidden dangers in the mansion."

"I agree with this." Liao Xiang nodded in agreement, but then changed the subject and said: "But the other party is definitely not kind-hearted. Although I don't know what the other party wants to do, I can be sure that the other party is staring at our mansion and seeing how we deal with this matter."

"What is the purpose of doing this?" Wu Lie said with a puzzled look on his face.

Liao Xiang said with a serious expression: "I don't know, but I know there is absolutely no benefit to us." As he said that, he looked at Wu Lie and asked tentatively: "My last proposal, lord..."

Before Liao Xiang finished speaking, Wu Lie raised his hand to interrupt his next words and said, "No need to talk about this matter. I also know that the situation in the lower realm of Jiuzhou is a bit strange now, but now is definitely not the best time to return to the mountain world. And although the man said he would not pursue what we had committed, we don't know whether he still had resentment in his heart. If he still had resentment in his heart and wanted our lives, he would not need to do it himself. Others would figure out his mind and attack us. Even if he killed us, he would definitely have a thousand ways to escape the pursuit. So now we have returned to the mountain world and become extremely passive and become fish slaughtered by others."

Liao Xiang didn't say anything else, just nodded.

On the contrary, Wu Gang had some thoughts and said in a deep voice: "Can we stay in this ghost place all our lives?"

"Of course not." Wu Lie gave a definite answer without thinking, and then said with great certainty: "We will definitely go back, but the time has not come yet. Once the time is up, we will be able to return to the mountain world with dignity and get back what we lost back then, and even get more back."
