Be good, call me uncle

Chapter 1572 Choosing a Breakthrough

It's cold in winter.

In the small stone room, the great elder leaned against the wall in embarrassment.

Several other elders are locked up in the remaining stone rooms.

The door of the stone room was slowly opened, and Chang Sun Tao stepped in, followed by Yun Fei and Jiang Jingqiu.

The great elder raised his eyelids, then lowered them again, ignoring Chang Sun Tao's arrival.

Changsun Tao walked up to him and asked calmly: "Do you want to go back to southern Xinjiang?"

The elder was unmoved.

Changsun Tao didn't say much. He shook his sleeves and turned to leave. Before leaving, he left a sentence: "Then I have no choice but to let the third elder go back."

"stop!"

When the great elder heard this, he reacted very fiercely.

He called to Chang Sun Tao and stood up quickly.

Obviously, he opposed the third elder's return.

Changsun Tao did not look back and stood there with his hands behind his back. He just stood there, feeling a heavy sense of oppression.

The great elder was extremely excited: "What exactly do you want to do?"

Changsun Tao slowly turned around and asked again: "Does the Great Elder want to return to Southern Xinjiang?"

The great elder calmed down a little and asked: "Conditions."

Changsun Tao said quietly: "Tell me everything about the forbidden area."

"Impossible!" the great elder blurted out.

Chang Sun Tao shook his sleeves and wanted to turn around and leave again.

Yun Fei raised his lips: "Great Elder, this is not a discussion."

After that, several people were ready to leave.

The Great Elder stopped them: "Purpose! I want to know your purpose! Tell me why you want to know!"

Changsun Tao took a few steps, then stopped.

Yun Fei turned around and told the Great Elder: "Someone wants to take action in your forbidden area. The matter is not only related to Southern Border, but also to Great Qin, so we naturally care."

The great elder frowned: "Who?"

Yun Fei smiled and said: "The great elder also knows him, the fortune teller."

The great elder looked a little complicated when he heard this.

He was not shocked because he already knew that the Master and the others must be related to the forbidden area.

Ice silkworm Gu is the best proof.Changsun Tao walked out, followed by Yun Fei and Jiang Jingqiu.

The great elder spoke again to stop a few people, but this time, Chang Sun Tao and the others did not stop, which made the great elder a little confused.

Changsun Tao did not go straight to the stone chamber of the third elder, nor to the stone chambers of the other elders, but went to the fifth elder.

Compared to the embarrassed few people, the fifth elder seemed very calm.

Seeing Changsun Tao come in, he raised the corners of his lips: "Your Highness, why are you here?"

Changsun Tao did not go straight to the point and explain his purpose, but told the fifth elder: "Just now, I went to the great elder and got some information from him, but it was incomplete, so I came to the fifth elder to supplement it."

The fifth elder raised his eyebrows: "Oh? What's the matter? My elder brother can actually say that?"

Changsun Tao's voice was still calm, as if he was talking about a trivial matter: "Some strange news about the forbidden area."

The fifth elder burst into laughter: "How is this possible? My eldest brother is an old man, it is absolutely impossible for him to mention these things!"

Changsun Tao said: "What if I tell him that if he doesn't tell me, I will let the third elder go back to southern Xinjiang?"

The fifth elder fell into deep thought, and then said after a while: "As expected of your great uncle, my eldest brother really wants you to hold it to death."

Changsun Tao smiled and said: "There is no such thing as being in control or not, but the shortcomings of the third elder are too obvious."

The fifth elder shrugged and said nonchalantly: "Tell me, tell me what you all know and what do you want to know now?"

Changsun Tao did not tell the fifth elder anything, but asked directly: "If something happens in the forbidden area, how big a threat will it pose to southern Xinjiang?"

The fifth elder was very surprised: "I didn't expect that His Highness would ask this question."

Changsun Tao smiled: "I have always been an upright man, and I don't bother to use despicable means if I want to get anything. Moreover, I don't follow the path of Gu, so why should I be interested in your forbidden territory?"

Wu Zhangsun glanced at him meaningfully: "Then what?"

Changsun Tao said: "The Master wants to complete something in the Forbidden Territory. This matter is related to the Qin Dynasty and may have serious consequences. If there is a problem in the Forbidden Territory, it will have a great impact on southern Xinjiang. Why don't we cooperate? "

The fifth elder stretched himself: "I have to say that His Highness is right to use me as a breakthrough point, but I'm afraid His Highness will be disappointed."

"There are five elders in southern Xinjiang who are in power, plus a highly respected high priest. How can the secrets of the forbidden area and the tricks of southern Xinjiang be in my hands alone?"

"How could we have lived in peace for so many generations if each of us didn't hold a part of the secret? So what I can give to His Highness is only part of it."

Changsun Taofu laughed softly again: "So, the fifth elder does not refuse to tell me the secrets you know?"

The fifth elder shrugged: "Why should I refuse? I believe that His Highness has already seen that I am not one of those stubborn old men, so he came to see me, right?"

Changsun Tao's smile did not change: "As the fifth elder said, this is the breakthrough point. If the fifth elder's side is captured, I believe it will be easy for the other elders."

The fifth elder smiled easily and happily: "I don't like dealing with smart people, so if I finish it earlier, I won't have to face you earlier."

Changsun Tao smiled even more: "It's true. I don't like it either."

The fifth elder said: "Then stop talking nonsense and be ready to listen!"
