Chapter 455 456. There is only one truth!

"there is only one truth!"

Qiao Mu couldn't help shouting the soul slogan.

"But our mission is to help Xu Fu get the elixir. Whether we can find the First Emperor or not is not that critical."

Qianyun picked up another mouthful of side dishes.

"really."

Qiao Mu nodded.

Even if they know who the First Emperor is, they can't change the fact that he finally became the ruler of Penglai for tens of thousands of years. Qiao Mu's investigation now is just out of pure curiosity.

"I'm leaving."

Qiao Mu stood up and left the restaurant.

Although I don’t know why the previous clone disappeared when approaching Fengcheng, but now it seems that there is nothing wrong with this city.

In the inn.

Qiao Mu rubbed his head and his phone vibrated.

"Report to the master that there is a visitor in Hui Jiang's room. Do you want to switch the camera?"

The voice of artificial intelligence sounded, just like that kind of surveillance camera that captured the change in the picture.

Qiao Mu is not a pervert who likes to pry into other people's privacy. The main reason is that the drone accidentally photographed it.

"Switch."

He made a prompt decision.

Now that I've captured it, if I don't look at it, wouldn't I feel sorry for the drone that worked so hard to capture it?

The screen on the phone suddenly changed, and it came to Hui Jiang's bedroom.

Sitting opposite him was one of Bei Luoxi's subordinates.

"Peking University hopes to cooperate with Lord Huijiang to find the elixir together."

That man, Qiao Mu, remembered that when he received them at the city gate, the man standing behind Beiluoxi on horseback was his adjutant, the deputy envoy of Fengcheng.

Although they didn't chat for a few words and didn't even remember his name, Qiao Mu, he vaguely remembered that this person seemed to be a loyal minister of the Bei family.

"This man's name is Shi Bi. He is the adopted son of the Bei family. He and Bei Luoxi are as close as brothers."

Wushan glanced at it and said casually.

"Wow, Ashan, you are so amazing, you can actually find out about such things!"

Qiao Mu praised, just like a kindergarten teacher praising a child for being able to tie his own shoelaces.

Don't put pressure on your teammates and always praise them. This is the secret to maintaining harmony in the team.

"Can you hear what they're saying?"

Wushan did not respond to Qiao Mu's praise, but asked.

"I didn't expect you to be so nosy, Ashan."

Qiao Mu complained and adjusted his voice.

"Sir Huijiang, my sworn brother is sincerely serving the people of Li. I hope you can understand."

Shi Bi said that he seemed to have told Hui Jiang his purpose. He was probably worried that Bei Luoxi and Xu Fu would collapse, so he took precautions and looked for another partner in advance.

Maybe there are people over there in Nanzhou now.

However, the statement here in Shibi is somewhat different from that in Beiluoxi.

Bei Luoxi told Xu Fu that he was not interested in the elixir, but only wanted the treasures in the Immortal Cave to kill evil spirits.

But Shi Bi said that after finding the elixir, he could share it with Hui Jiang, and even if it had to be presented to the emperor later, he could still leave a share for him and his family.

"very smart."

Kiriyama commented.

"Why are you so smart?"

As a professional commentator, Qiao Mu knew that he should insert a question at this time to let Wushan continue talking.

"He probably also approached Nanzhou, and his explanation was similar to the one here, but slightly different, because Beiluoxi Zhizhi and they had different positions and would not be completely honest. They made similar proposals to all three of them. They don’t know how to communicate with each other, so in the end, Beiluoxi will be able to take advantage of the information gap to gain benefits.”

Kiriyama explained.

Just like a kindergarten teacher telling everyone to eat extra food tonight, telling the first child to eat crab tonight, telling the second child to eat fish tonight, and telling the third child to eat potatoes tonight, it is said to everyone. They all eat tonight, but no one knows exactly what they will eat.

Moreover, these three children do not know how to communicate with each other yet. When it is almost time for snacks, everyone is looking forward to it and seems eager to try it.

Applying this to this, after doing this, they will agree to Beiluoxi's proposal to go on an expedition with the medicine seeker's team, and then maybe when Beiluoxi really wants to do something, they will consider the current agreement and stand aside.

Qiao Mu immediately called up the drone from Nanzhou.

Sure enough, someone from Nanzhou also contacted me, and the content was similar to here, but slightly different.

"Ah Shan, tell me, will we be recruited too?"

Qiao Mu asked curiously after watching the video.

"maybe."

As soon as Wushan finished speaking, he heard a knock on the door.

"who?"

Kiriyama asked.

"Two adults, this is Huang Bian. We met at the banquet in the evening."

Obviously, this was a person from the Jiedushi Mansion, and just as Qiao Mu had guessed, he came to recruit them.

"Ah Shan, you stand there later and I'll talk to him."

Qiao Mu called Wushan to come behind him.

"Please come in."

Wushan asked the other party to open the door and come in. This person did appear at the dinner and was a general from Beiluoxi.

This shows the difference in treatment.

Beiluoxi personally found Xu Fu, and the sworn brothers went to Huijiang. When they arrived at Nanzhou and Qiao Mu, they became their subordinates.

As soon as the man named Huang Bian walked in, he saw Qiao Mu sitting on a chair with Wushan standing next to him.

"Two adults, I'm Huangbian. I'm here to discuss matters related to the elixir with you."

Huangbian gets straight to the point.

From his perspective, Qiao Mu and the others should be Xu Fu's personal bodyguards, similar to Jin Yiwei. They have some status, so they also need to be wined over.

"Let me guess, you want to tell us that your master is going to set out with the medicine seeker's team to find the elixir, and wants to use the elixir as a reward in exchange for our support?"

Qiao Mu said solemnly, he was playing the godfather this time, and he pretended to be stroking a cat in his hand.

It's a pity that there is no real cat here, otherwise his restoration degree should be 100%.

"this"

Huang Bian didn't expect that the other party knew so clearly, and was a little surprised.

However, the instructions he received from Beiluoxi were to provide them with benefits instead of elixirs. Qiao Mu blurted out the elixirs, which put people in a dilemma.

Just give it, he is a small general and has no right to make promises on Beiluoxi's behalf.

If you say no, this conversation will not go on.

"Your Excellency, you are aware of everything. This is why I came here this time."

After thinking for a while, Huang Bian said bravely.

He repeated the conditions given by Beiluoxi, neither denying nor acknowledging what Qiao Mu just said.

"You said the conditions are very good."

Qiao Mu nodded and at the same time stroked the non-existent cat in his hand.

"But I think it's not enough."

Huang Bian frowned when he heard this.

He didn't understand what Qiao Mu meant.

"Have you ever thought that princes and generals like Xiang Ning have a certain kind?"

Qiao Mu suddenly leaned forward, looked at Huang Bian and said.
