Heavy snow was blowing, the cold wind swayed over the hills, and the rough outlines of several people were outlined in the wind and snow.

Gao Mang looked down at the Tianshu flowing bead on his arm and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

When he asked the little Taoist boy to pretend to be himself, he was reluctant to hand over the Tianshu flowing bead to the Taoist boy, but unexpectedly, there was a flaw here.

Suddenly, his heart moved, and Gao Mang said to the man in black opposite: "Then let me guess. You must be the Yuheng envoy of the Tianyun Department and the current deputy commander of the Shadow Department, Liu Dinggao?"

The man in black smiled and said, "How can I see it?"

Gao Mang said lightly: "You were also one of the participants when Tianyun Department destroyed the Martial Empress Evil Formation in Longmen Grottoes, so you can find the secret passage of Lushe's Buddhist shrine. Only you can summon people in such a short time and arrange the evil spirit magic array to summon evil spirits."

The man in black shook his head: "There are more people who destroyed the evil formation back then, and more people who know how to set up the formations. This is not enough to infer my identity."

"I know," Gao Mang looked at the old man, "Master once told me that among the Tianxing people in Tianyun Department, you are the most sensitive to Tianshu crystals and iron materials. If it weren't for this, you probably wouldn't be able to find the secret room in the Buddha's niche, and it's even more impossible to sense my Tianshu flowing beads and track me down, right?"

The man in black nodded slightly: "How reasonable is it? What else?"

"And that when we were trapped by giant evil spirits, you didn't take the opportunity to take action. This means you didn't plan to take my life, right?"

"Why is this?" The man in black looked surprised.

“The reason is very simple,”

Gao Mang smiled, "Either Yang Sixu or you have received the kindness of your master, so you can't take action against me. Besides, there is no need for you to kill me. Just drag me to Longmen Mountain and drag it for three or five days."

The man in black looked at Gao Mang with a smile and exclaimed: "It is worthy of being the little immortal master, and Sima's immortal master has one successor."

After saying that, the man in black took off the cloak from his head and said lightly to Gao Mang: "Yes, I'm Liu Dinggao."

Although Gao Mang guessed it, he still looked surprised when he saw Liu Zhigao.

It was an old wrinkled face with gray hair, probably because he walked in the dark all year round, which made his skin feel sickly pale.

Liu Zhigao was one of the first awakened people to awaken. He was only in his forties, but he was believed by someone to be eighty!

No wonder, he was talking about me.

Liu Zhigao noticed Gao Mang's expression and laughed at himself: "Yes, it was probably God's punishment that made me, Liu, so old."

Ten years ago, Liu Dinggao, who was the Yuheng envoy of Tianyun Si, launched a massive rebellion under the command of Emperor Xuanzong. The rebellion came quickly and did not cause any damage to Luoyang City. However, the emperor used this as an excuse to forcefully intervene in Tianyun Si, gradually undermining Sima Chengzhen, and forced Sima Chengzhen to retreat to Wangwu Mountain a year later.

Liu Dinggao and his eight Tianxing people were not punished afterwards, but hid in the darkness. With the support of the emperor, a mysterious organization was created, which is the origin of the Shadow Department.

In the past ten years, Shadow Department has frequently taken action against the Tianyun Department, and even used assassination and other means to weaken the Tianyun Department's strength. It can be said that the Tianyun Department is now fragmented and Shadow Department has made great contributions.

Objectively speaking, Liu Dinggao is not a bad person, and Yang Sixu is not a bad person. After all, they have to obey the emperor's actions, but they are all ungrateful people.

The guilt for Tianyunsi and Sima Chengzhen probably always existed deep in their hearts, and it was so heavy that it was pressing them.

This time, Liu Dinggao prevented Gao Mang from returning to Luoyang City, and he did not mean to kill him. It was one aspect of the loss, but it was not necessary to do so.

Liu Zhigao looked at Gao Mang and said seriously: "Little Immortal Master, you have been staying at Longmen these days. The military achievements you should have will be as bad as rewards as you would. There is no need to go to the muddy waters of Luoyang City."

Gao Mang couldn't help laughing, so if I don't go to Luoyang City, you Shadow Department can enjoy the great achievements of saving the Lord and the great achievements of suppressing the rebellion, but you only leave a little soup for our Tianyun Department and give me the next Tianyun Department's envoy?

At the most critical moment, I was not by the emperor's side and could not play any role. How disappointed should the emperor be with me?

When rewarding merits and merits, will the emperor still want to get me?

The Yin soldiers' chaos incident began to develop from the fermentation and to the current situation, the situation is actually very clear.

Emperor Li Longji allowed the Yin soldiers to gather, and allowed the court ministers to fight and even attack each other, which was nothing more than having the strong confidence that an emperor should have.

For the emperor, whether the mastermind behind the Yin Soldier incident was Crown Prince Li Ying or Shou King Li Feng, there was actually no difference in essence. The emperor just needed to wait patiently for the mastermind to show up and then take action.

It's that simple. This is a big bet. Everyone has completed the deployment and completed their own plans, and are waiting for the last moment when the trump card is revealed.

Who will win and who will lose? Gao Mang dared not be sure, but he chose to believe in the emperor and the emperor Li Longji.

Since he made a choice, he must stand firmly on the emperor's side, so he must return to Luoyang.

Gao Mang said to Liu Zhigao: "Parent Liu, what if I tell you that I am following the will of the saint and going back to Luoyang City?"

Liu Zhigao was surprised and shook his head and said, "There is no basis for nothing, little immortal master, saying these things are meaningless."

In any case, it is impossible for him to let the little immortal master return to Luoyang.

Since the little immortal master went down the mountain to Beijing, Liu Zhigao felt a strong crisis, because the emperor's favor for the little immortal master was beyond everyone's expectations, and his indulgence towards the little immortal master was beyond everyone's expectations.

With the help of the brewing shop of the Vacuum God Liquid, the little immortal master has built a team within the Tianyun Department. As the size of the brewing shop expands, the team is also expanding rapidly.

As the saying goes, one rises and the other falls, once the Tianyun Department grows stronger, the Shadow Department's situation will be in a bad state.

Liu Zhigao must consider himself and his subordinates.

Yang Duke Yang Sixu is old and can retire safely at any time, but Liu Zhigao, a former traitor of Tianyun Department, how can Tianyun Department tolerate him?

Once the little immortal master makes a contribution to the rescue of the emperor this time, the emperor may hand over the Tianyun Department to the little immortal master with a big stroke. This situation is definitely not something that Liu Zhigao is willing to see, nor is it something that the Shadow Department is willing to see.

So this time, even without Yang Gong's secret order, Liu Zhigao would not allow Gao Mang to return to Luoyang City, and he had the opportunity to make great contributions.

Gao Mang knew that he could not speak of Liu Zhigao, so he shook his head helplessly. The Tianshu flowing bead on his wrist fell down and walked towards Liu Zhigao with great strides.
