Chapter 121 Morgan Brotherhood

Sun Zhongnu was originally a small figure. If it were normal times, even if he betrayed, he would not have made such a big fuss. But he happened to be at a critical juncture. Qi Xuansu came to the Northern Continent, Audrey disappeared, and the situation between Steam Gospel and Xidaomen was tense. By chance, the interests of all parties were affected, and he actually stirred up the situation in the Northern Continent, making everyone know the name of Sun Zhongnu.

However, for Sun Zhongnu, this may not be a good thing.

Li Mingzhen wanted to kill him, Huangfu Ji also wanted to kill him, and Qi Xuansu also wanted to kill him.

The more damage he caused and the worse the impact, the more he would die.

Even as strong as Chen Shuhua, he died in the end.

Of course, it can be said that Chen Shuhua was not strong enough, but human power is sometimes limited, and immortals are already the limit under normal circumstances.

Qi Xuansu actually divided his troops into three groups. One group, Wu Niang, went to the sea to attract Sophia's attention, and the other group took Audrey by land, and his original body stayed in St. York.

Whether it was the Gospel Department or the West Dao Sect, everyone thought that Qi Xuansu was fleeing from Saint York, and no one expected that Qi Xuansu himself was still in Saint York.

This is the advantage of the scattered people.

Since the inheritance of the six immortals, there are many scattered people. After all, there are many people who are not qualified enough, but precisely because of the lack of qualifications, there are very few scattered people above the level of good fortune. Therefore, it is really rare to find someone directly based on the corpse-reincarnation immortal. For earth immortals and gods, you can't just rely on inheritance to determine a certain person.

The same is true for the good fortune scattered people, who are even rarer than the exiled immortals. Because there are too few, many people don't know much about the scattered people's military solution. Although the exiled immortals also have the method of beheading the three corpses, they do not rely on external objects, do not seek outside, but seek inside, relying on the three corpse gods. Unless they cultivate to the state of perfection and cut the three corpses into independent individuals, the incarnation cannot survive in the world for a long time.

If it was the incarnation of the Three Corpses, it would not be able to last so long and would dissipate halfway, leaving only Audrey. That would be fun to watch.

On the other hand, although the high-level officials of the Taoist sect knew Qi Xuansu's background, and Wu Niang also knew it, other people did not know it. At most, they had heard of the saying "the exiled immortal from the day after tomorrow", but they did not know what the so-called "exiled immortal from the day after tomorrow" was. After all, there were only two exiled immortals from the day after tomorrow in such a large Taoist sect. How could outsiders know such Taoist secrets?

Not only outsiders, but most people in the Taoist sect did not know the truth, including the real people such as Wang Jiaohe and Sun Heyu.

Since most people did not know what the inheritance of the "exiled immortal from the day after tomorrow" was, they took it for granted that it was an exiled immortal, at most with some special features. When it was passed to the Western Taoist sect and the Holy Court, it was a step further away, and even the saying of "the exiled immortal from the day after tomorrow" was gone, leaving only the saying of the exiled immortal.

It is said that people who are seventy are rare, and sixty is considered old, so people can get married and have children at the age of fourteen, and can call themselves old men at the age of forty.

But if the life span is a hundred years, then twenty and thirty are really teenagers, forty is a young man, and fifty and sixty are only middle-aged and prime-aged. Nowadays, those who call themselves old people in the Taoist sect must be at least eighty years old. People in their sixties and seventies are still in their prime, such as the disciples of the seventh generation, who are completely in the mentality of middle-aged people, without the slightest bit of old age. ….

So Qi Xuansu became famous at a young age, and he had such a realm of cultivation at such a young age, which made others believe that Qi Xuansu was a banished immortal, which was reasonable and reasonable, and there was no doubt about it.

Since Qi Xuansu was regarded as a banished immortal, it was taken for granted that it was Qi Xuansu himself who was fleeing with Audrey, but he did not realize that Qi Xuansu himself was still in St. York.

Now the Gospel Department has focused on the Bingjie Huashen, and the Beichen Hall spies in the North District have been almost cleared, and the survivors have also evacuated. The Gospel Department will inevitably relax its vigilance, and St. York has become a dark place under the lamp.

Since Sun Zhongnu's rebellion, Qi Xuansu has also considered the matter of eradicating this traitor. In terms of his realm and cultivation, this is not a difficult task. The key is to consider two issues. One is to protect Strawney's identity and prevent him from being exposed. The other is to find Sun Zhongnu's hiding place or know Sun Zhongnu's route of action.

Strawney has no intersection with the Gospel Department and cannot know the whereabouts of the Gospel Department. Qi Xuansu has a high level of cultivation, so it is not difficult to find someone, but he has never seen Sun Zhongnu, so he has no way to find him.

However, Strawney introduced him to a way-the Morgan Brotherhood of St. York.

The City Council of St. York is divided into two major camps, namely the Tory Party and the Whig Party. Now the Whig Party is the majority party, and the Speaker Sophia is the leader of the Whig Party. The Tories are the minority party, and Leopold is the leader of the Tories, so Leopold is a strong candidate for the speaker, just a few votes short.

The minority party and the majority party are generally evenly matched, just a few votes apart, by no means heaven and earth, and any bill that requires a two-thirds majority vote to pass still depends on the face of the minority party, which is essentially a rotation of the dealer.

Sophia is the behind-the-scenes boss of the Rekton Detective Agency and can mobilize plainclothes detectives. Leopold, who corresponds to her, naturally has a similar force, which is the Morgan Brotherhood.

This is an organization between thieves and assassins, walking in the gray area and doing some shameful livelihoods. The Morgan Brotherhood is the local snake of St. York. They certainly dare not ask them to assassinate the people of the Ministry of Gospel, but they are not afraid of just selling information and revealing their whereabouts behind the scenes, provided that they are paid enough.

Qi Xuansu thought that instead of searching all over the world, which was time-consuming and laborious, and might not be found, it would be better to go directly to the Morgan Brotherhood and just spend a little money. Although Qi Xuansu himself had no money, this kind of thing must be done with public funds, and Qi Xuansu himself could approve it and had the power to do so.

After all, Qingwei Zhenren was not only the head of Beichen Hall, but also the second assistant Zhenren of Jinque. He was a person who could command thousands of troops. It was a bit of an exaggeration to ask him to approve this little money because it was a waste of energy for such a small matter.

After Qi Xuansu made up his mind, of course he could not go to the Morgan Brotherhood with his current identity. He decided to leave St. York and return to the Old World in the open as "Dachi".

There were certainly some suspicious things in this, such as Dachi came all the way from the Old World to the New World, but he didn't stay for long and hurried back, which was a bit unreasonable. However, as long as you don't think about it in detail, there is no problem, and now it is different from the past. If you take an airship, it is also very convenient to travel between the New World and the Old World. ….

Even if the Ministry of Gospel really wants to get to the bottom of it, the Old Continent is the territory of the Holy Court Inquisition. Given the relationship between the two, the Ministry of Gospel cannot get any information from the Inquisition, let alone get its cooperation. After all, if the Holy Court and Steam Gospel had not had a conflict over the uneven distribution of spoils, it would have been impossible for the Western Daomen to take advantage and establish Tawanting.

After Qi Xuansu boarded the ship, it was impossible for him to really go to the Western Continent. Naturally, he escaped and returned to Saint York. Moreover, he had the ever-changing realm inherited by the warriors, and he could change his appearance and use the alias John Marston.

As for the gold crown, there is no need to worry about it. Qi Xuansu brought enough gold crowns and eagle dollars before coming here to prepare for emergencies. For the dignified Beichen Hall, it is not difficult to prepare some gold crowns that are legal and can't be seen. After all, the trade between the East and the West is close, and the Daomen itself also stores a large amount of gold crowns.

According to the information provided by Strawney, Qi Xuansu went to the Morgan Brotherhood's meeting place - although the Morgan Brotherhood's members are spread throughout St. York and the surrounding areas, it is still difficult to find these members, and they don't like to do ordinary business.

However, those who can find them through various channels are generally big businesses. After all, small businesses are much easier than finding the Morgan Brotherhood. If you have time to find the Brotherhood, just solve the small business.

Precisely because the Morgan Brotherhood only does high-end business, or most of the business is high-end business, their bases are mostly in the upper city, not the gloomy lower city - this is obviously to take care of the guests. Those dignitaries who have issued commissions certainly don't want to go to the lower city, and some secret missions cannot be entrusted to others, and must be done in person.

Qi Xuansu crossed the Central Avenue in Queens and turned into an alley. After turning around, there was a grocery store that looked ordinary, but it was actually one of the Morgan Brotherhood's meeting places.

Through the glass, you can see that the business in the store is very quiet. Only the boss is behind the counter, holding his cheek with his hand and dozing off.

This scene reminded Qi Xuansu of the time when he went to the "inn" and had a grudge with Qingluan Guard for this. In a blink of an eye, time has passed and Qi Xuansu has become a colleague of Qingluan Guard, and he is among the senior officials. He no longer takes ordinary Qingluan Guards seriously and can sit on an equal footing with the commander of Qingluan Guard.

Qi Xuansu pushed the door and entered. The wind chime connected to the door rang, waking up the boss who was dozing off.

The holy emblem of the Steam Gospel is a little special. It is composed of three gears to form an inverted triangle pattern, not the traditional inverted triangle.

Qi Xuansu came to the counter and took out three gold crowns. One gold crown represents one gear, which is also composed of an inverted triangle pattern, which is very similar to the holy emblem of the Steam Gospel.

The grocery store owner looked at Qi Xuansu in surprise, stretched out his hand and wiped the table, and the three gold crowns disappeared: "Please follow me."

Through a secret door and a secret passage downward, Qi Xuansu came to an underground hall.

In other words, Qi Xuansu was in the area between the middle city and the lower city at this time.

This place is beautifully decorated, and it is almost the same as a mansion except that there are no windows.

After Qi Xuansu waited in the reception room for a while, a slender figure came out, wearing a white shirt, breeches, and long boots. A musket was hanging on her waist, and a dagger was put on her index finger. She was turning the dagger quickly, and the cold light was flashing.

These thieves have also kept up with the times. They must have used crossbows before, but now they have changed to muskets.
