courtyard.

The night is like water.

Zhou Yi stood in the courtyard with a look of nostalgia in his eyes.

"This identity can no longer be used for the time being. Many people in central Beijing and northern Xinjiang know it, and it is quite dangerous."

Li Hong, Chen Jinyu, the Wei family and others seem trustworthy, but in Zhou Yi and Heavenly Prison's past years, what we have seen the most is that people's hearts are fickle and immeasurable.

One moment we are best friends, the next moment we are sworn enemies.

"The last time I changed my identity, I just thought it would be simple and quick, but it left a big flaw."

"I learned my lesson this time and turned into a person who has nothing to do with Zhou Yi. No one would have thought that the two had any connection. Besides, it doesn't mean that Zhou Yi is dead. He can still show up when needed."

Zhou Yi has made a plan in his mind. He will never return to Heavenly Prison. There are too many acquaintances there.

During the day, Zhou Yi resigned. Captain Yang was not embarrassed, but his face was a little gloomy.

Follow-up revenge would not be a problem, after all, Zhou Yi is just a jailer who is quite proficient in martial arts, and he is not worthy of the hero's hatred.

"It's troublesome to live too long. You have to change your identity every few decades!"

Zhou Yi sighed hypocritically and took out the blue booklet from his arms.

Written in Chinese pinyin, it records the people and places in the Fengyang Kingdom that are most likely to be related to cultivating immortals.

Behind the characters at each location, there are many annotations and analyses, which were repeatedly investigated and verified by Brocade Guard from each state. Zhou Yi Choose stability over danger. He has a plan on how to blend into the spiritual practice world stably, and now he has a general idea.

"Let's put aside these dangerous places for now. Even if they are related to Cultivation World, we don't know the dangers of good and evil, so we must not touch them easily."

"So there are not many choices. Three families who suddenly became rich, and Imperial Prison monks imprisoned underground!"

Zhou Yi asked his subordinate Brocade Guard to investigate strange people and strangers, and at the same time pay attention to those families who got rich for no reason, find out the source of their wealth, and continue to investigate if it is related to immortals.

Monks are also human beings, especially those who are new to Dao Path.

The practice time is still short, and the person still has blood ties to the world, so he usually leaves gold and silver for his family.

Fengyang Kingdom After investigation by Brocade Guard, Fengyang Kingdom found that 99% of the reasons for getting rich were written in the law, including deception, abduction, grave digging and tomb robbery, with various methods.

After all, Fengyang Kingdom's level of class solidification far exceeds that of Zhou Yi's previous life.

"After repeated screening, these three families were found to be the most suspicious. Brocade Guard secret agent Imperial Bodyguards devised a story, all claiming that someone in the family was a wandering Daoist priest."

Zhou Yi pondered for a long time, turned over the three houses, and continued to watch Imperial Bodyguards for the time being.

"The news that Imperial Bodyguards tricked out is that the three possible monks are still young and can live to be at least 180 years old. We haven't seen the monks' methods yet, so there may not be a way to detect them, so we shouldn't just wait and see."

The three monks are young and will come back to visit relatives after completing their studies and perform spells such as detection and induction.

Zhou Yi What is waiting may not be Immortal Opportunity, but a fireball as big as a millstone.

"After repeated inspections and screenings, the safest one is Imperial Prison underground."

"That monk was captured by the Dog Emperor and imprisoned in a mortal prison for decades, which shows that he has low strength and no killing skills."

Zhou Yi pondered for a long time and shook his head slightly.

"I will live in seclusion in the mountains for two or three years for the time being and wait for the results of the Jiangnan Aristocratic Families investigation to come out before making any plans."

"However, there is little hope for this. Back then, the Dog Emperor was so obsessed with Path of Immortality and did not touch Jiangnan Aristocratic Families. He must be afraid."

Orthodox seven years.

Yuan Manor.

Back house.

Yuan Shun saluted respectfully and presented the red sandalwood box with both hands.

"My lord, this is this year's Royal Family tribute tea. I humbly pick out the tea leaves one by one. They are equal in size and uniform in color."

"Little Yuanzi is interested."

Zhou Yi put the tea box into his sleeves. "How is the deputy commander's seat?"

"I have the support of the Lord, so I have done a safe job."

Yuan Shun's stoop became lower and lower. Last year, Feng Zhong died in the palace, which became a sensational case.

Feng Zhong, the dignified eunuch and commander of Brocade Guard, known as the internal minister, died in the palace. Later investigation revealed that two Innate Grandmaster took action that day, one of whom lured away the palace enshrinement responsible for protection, and the other took action to kill Feng Zhong.

Zhou Yi said, "Do you have any ideas about the position of commander?"

"I was about to report to the Lord that the emperor summoned me to the palace for questioning a few days ago."

Yuan Shun said, "Now that Zhang Empress Dowager is old and Feng Zhong is dead, His Majesty has appointed Yu Qingtian as his second assistant. I feel that Zhang Family's ship has come to an end, so I agreed to His Majesty's solicitation."

"As long as you don't delay my business, you can do the rest."

Zhou Yi nodded slightly, Yuan Shun was able to reach today because his vision and ability are not bad.

After Feng Zhong died in the assassination of Chen and Wei in Northern Xinjiang, seven or eight people competed for deputy commander. Yuan Shun did not ask for help from Zhou Yi and successfully competed for the position.

When Chen and Wei assassinated Feng Zhong, they not only followed Zhou Yi's orders, but also gave Emperor Zhengtong a chance to resist.

Shenjing is in chaos, so the imperial court naturally has no intention of paying attention to Northern Xinjiang!

"Don't worry, my lord, now Brocade Guard and all key positions are under my humble control. The newly appointed Duke Wei has only the title of commander, so there is no chance of transferring anyone."

Yuan Shun took out a thick volume and said, "This is the information about the eight major Aristocratic Clan tribesmen in the south of the Yangtze River."

Zhou Yi flipped through it, and every page was filled with records. The whole book contains at least hundreds of thousands of words.

"I can rest assured when you do something, and tell me the key information."

"After a humble investigation, we found that there are three or five strange people in the eight Aristocratic Clan. They usually hide at home and do not show their faces. Occasionally they show off their extraordinary skills when they travel out."

"The identities of these people have special marks in the files."

Envy flashed in Yuan Shun's eyes. At this time, he no longer doubted the theory of cultivating immortals. "They are extremely vigilant when they go out. If the spy Imperial Bodyguards shows a slight flaw, he will either be lost or die."

"Not much useful information was actually obtained, all of it was recorded at the end of the file."

Zhou Yi turned to the end of the book, and there were only about twenty lines of words. They were all words said by someone, and Imperial Bodyguards must have heard them secretly.

"Little Dan Mountain, Mount Qiyun, Dan Ding Sect..."

Three names flashed through my mind quickly. None of the strange and dangerous places marked by Brocade Guard could be matched, or the investigation was wrong, or the names in the practice world are different from those in the ordinary world.

Zhou Yi closed the file and looked at everyone carefully after returning home. "What major events have happened in Beijing in the past few years?"

"Feng Zhong died, Yu Qingtian resurrected, the Lord already knows."

Yuan Shun recalled for a moment and said, "Other events that can be called major events are only from the branch of the Yang family. Yang Zheng was promoted to Imperial Guards capital commander, which is quite a hit among young generals."

Imperial Guards is an official of the fifth rank, and holds real power in the military. He is also considered a figure in Shenjing. However, in the eyes of Yuan Shun, he can only be regarded as a junior, and there is a huge difference in official position and power.

Zhou Yi quickly flipped through the file and found the page Yang Zheng, which recorded in detail what he had done in Beijing.

In three years, Yang Zheng used Happy Forest as the foundation and continued to expand outwards, almost unifying the Shenjing gang, Pleasure Quarter, and gambling stalls. In recent days, it has also gotten involved in the Su River water transport.

On the surface, he is the leader of Imperial Guards, but secretly he is the underground king of Shenjing.

"Yang Zheng wants more than just high-ranking officials and generous salaries!"

The first volume is almost finished, the middle chapters are a bit slow, and the second chapter will be late.
