Profound Pure Guard

"what are you thinking?"

Shen Hao took a sip from the teacup in front of him. The slightly bitter medicinal smell inside made him frown, but there was a sweetness not long after the mouth, and the taste was decent.

It was mainly sent by family members, and Shen Hao did not refuse to relieve the heat.

"If you go back to the lord, the subordinates think they can try it."

Standing in Shen Hao's public house is Wang Jian. This guy was ordered to rest at home for a few days, and only started to go on a job yesterday and found him, just for the new intelligence information from the city of Wounded Death.

The first-line spies have very little news. First, there is no need to let them know too much. Second, they are also building a fire ditch for the intelligence system.

But after the information was summarized up, it was different when it finally arrived in the hands of the four parts of Heishui. It was able to restore a more intuitive result like a puzzle.

Shen Hao got the latest information on the City of Death at noon the day before yesterday. At that time, Wang Jian was still resting, and Zhang Lio sent it over. Combining some inferences that have been made, it was surprising and it seemed that a branch line was brought out in the end, which made Shen Hao amused.

As Heishui’s long-time focus on intelligence, Zhengyang Sect in the City of Vain has always been "cared for", but suffers from environmental constraints. Heishui’s own intelligence channels in the City of Vain have been slow to expand, and he wants to get to the core. At present, no suitable entry has been found.

But the slowness is a little bit slower, but naturally there are gains. In addition to the large number of intelligence dealers and informants in the city of Wounded Death, Heishui's huge investment in the city of Wandering can still be quite rewarded.

For example, the information about Zhengyangzong returned this time mentioned two aspects. One is that Zhengyangzong buys medicinal materials for a long time, but almost never flows out of the medicine. The second is that the state began to reverse the domestic human trafficking network, and at the same time, strictly investigated the people in the weak waters and the waterways of the Gorge River, which caused the human trafficking in the dead city to fall into a dead silence, but Zhengyangzong's abnormal behavior was obvious. The reaction was a little flustered.

These two pieces of information are very interesting, especially the first one.

Where did the medicinal materials of Zhengyang Sect come from? It's not hard to guess at all.

The flow of medicinal materials in the old Jing Dynasty is counted, and large transactions are recorded in the Yamen and strictly controlled. Basically, the medicinal materials were collected by the major sects and the official shops of the old Jing Dynasty. Even though there are still some medicinal materials for private mountain digging in various cities, they are very few in general, and it is not enough to count them.

Including the Changshengmen, one of the three chief leaders of the City of Wounded Death, most of the medicinal materials purchased in the City of Wounded Death did not come from the old Jing Dynasty, but from the Barbarian Realm.

There are generally two channels. The first is to be bought by the caravan from the old Jing Dynasty from the barbarians, and then sold to the black merchants in the dead city or the pursuing disciples of various sects. Then they were transported back to the dead city by water or sea.

The second is that the people in the City of Death go to the barbarian realm directly to find the existing people or tribes of the barbarian to discuss the acquisition.

There are still traces of the flow of the former medicinal material, even with the acquiescence of the border army of the Jingji Dynasty, which is another kind of tacit understanding between the Jingji Dynasty and the city of vain. The intermediary of its transaction is either silver or lingshi.

The latter is one of the few behaviors in the city of vain. Although it will not turn the old dynasty over, the transaction is much more difficult. Because of the direct transaction with the barbarians, it is not money and spirit stones that are needed.

Silver coins and spirit stones are hard currencies, but not many people like them in today's barbarian realm.

The reason is simple, that is, you don’t have enough to eat, so who do you buy money with?

The physical cultivation of the barbarians is about to be killed into a rare species, who will give the spirit stones to them?

Survival, this most basic need is the only theme in the barbarian land today. So if you want to trade with the barbarians, that must be what they need.

Than if the belly of the food, or a sharp weapon that can be used for survival: iron.

In the words of the frontier army in the south, as long as you have food and iron in your hand, you are an ancestor in the barbarian realm. If you want to speak directly, even if you want the wife of the tribal elder, it will be fine.

So here comes the problem. Zhengyangzong's medicinal materials can definitely come from the Barbarian Realm, and they are not in the list of transactions between the Jingjiu Dynasty and the City of Wounded Death. The medicinal materials of Zhengyang School can only be obtained directly from the barbarians in private.

Where does the Zhengyang Sect's food and ironware come from? And still a stable supply?

There is only one answer, and that is to find a way from the old Jing Dynasty.

Long-term, stable, and private delivery of grain and ironware to the dead city, avoiding the investigation of the water gate, and avoiding the records of the entry and exit of grain and ironware by local yamen. This is definitely not something ordinary people can do. There must be considerable power to **** in the old Jing Dynasty.

Then... it wasn’t that Shen Hao deliberately, he just naturally connected Zhengyangzong’s medicinal materials with the Qin family who had frequently appeared in front of him recently, and then he thought about it a little bit, and found that nothing else. , Really can be together without a sense of violation.

Didn’t the Qin family have too many elixirs to be shipped on the black market? And the number is not small and stable. Can this be explained that the source of the pill in their hands is Zhengyangzong? After all, Zhengyangzong's ability to refine alchemy is corroborated. Wasn't Ma Sankui, the former false evil monk, relying on the pill to knock on the door of the black market? It doesn't seem impossible to switch to the Qin family now, but it's more concealed.

Ma Sankui came to the black market to ask for nothing more than food and ironware. Today the largest purchase of the Qin family is also grain and ironware. It's just that the Qin family has more methods. The food channels will turn around and hide themselves under the guise of others.

And according to the information that has been found, UU read www.uukanshu. The end of the com Qin’s food route is likely to be the city of vain.

Doesn't this just close?

After a stroke, a complete closed loop is very clear. Although it is only a possibility, the possibility of being close to the real situation is more than 70%, because even if it is a coincidence, it is impossible to put together one link after another. . In other words, at this time, the Qin family's dossier can already be linked to the large number of fake and evil monks' dossiers.

Even Shen Hao can officially launch investigations against the Qin family at this moment as long as he wants to, including taking people and searching. But he was not in a hurry.

If it had been before the banquet at the beginning of the month, Shen Hao might have really started directly at the Qin family. But now that the situation has changed, Lu Liang's involvement makes him think that the Qin family's case can be dig deeper?

Therefore, the first item of information about Zhengyangzong that was newly arrived in the city of vain stayed still and continued to follow up secretly.

On the contrary, the second piece of information about Zhengyangzong made Heishui Sibu a rare opportunity, and at the same time, he hoped to get Shen Hao's operation warrant. Wang Jian came here today mainly for this.
