Although Zhiyi's words seemed to be a casual question, he directly mentioned Uncle Tian in his words. This was a hint to Bai Qiyun that he and Uncle Tian were very familiar with each other, which was considered an invisible oppression.

But he obviously miscalculated one thing, that is, since Bai Qiyun could learn about Zhiyi's existence from Uncle Tian, ​​he would not take care of him, a small employee.

Hearing this, Bai Qiyun couldn't help but chuckle.

Although it was plain, the smile seemed to be mixed with a little ridicule.

Since this kid wants to play, you might as well play with him.

"Of course Uncle Tian told me. Tell me the whole story. How did you discover the Fools? As far as I know, you seem to have never been out of Liyue Port in recent times. How did you know about the Strata Abyss?

thing?"

Yes, this is also the most suspicious point about Zhiyi.

How could a person sitting in an office know about the conditions of a rocky abyss thousands of miles away, let alone a junior employee?

But Zhiyi seemed to be prepared for Bai Qiyun's question.

I saw him sighing in relief.

"I told Uncle Tian about this matter. In fact, it was mainly the Zhidong people in Liyue Port who exposed their flaws."

According to Zhiyi, his project has always been to connect with the merchants of Zhidong Kingdom.

After all, although the Fools have withdrawn from Liyue Port, the trade between the two countries has not been cut off, and special personnel are needed to deal with these winter merchants.

While processing the files of these people, Zhiyi inadvertently found out about the movements of the fools, so he reported it to Uncle Tian, ​​and this was how he received the subsequent income from the three mines.

According to subsequent investigations, these fools stayed in the Rock Abyss for about half a month.

If it hadn't been discovered in time, allowing Uncle Tian to use a unique message transmission method to reach the Qianyan Army stationed in the Rock Abyss, then these fools would have really escaped under their noses.

"I see."

After hearing the details, Bai Qiyun nodded slightly.

He knew that since Zhiyi could hand this matter over to Uncle Tian, ​​Uncle Tian would naturally investigate the details before and after.

Uncle Tian didn't say anything, which means that what Zhiyi said is basically correct.

But even so, he still felt something was wrong.

A little pawn could have such a keen insight, and follow the clues to find out the traces of the Fools, and then passed it to Tianshu Star for processing with great confidence, and finally added three minerals to Liyue.

At first glance, I thought he was the protagonist from that novel.

With such ability, why do you still work as a clerk in a general affairs department?

Anyone with a little bit of ambition wouldn't be in this position now.

As far as he knew, Zhiyi had been recruited by Uncle Tian to work here since the young master started the monster turmoil.

Calculating this, it has been almost two or three years.

How could such a person, who is both wise and brave, and courteous in dealing with people and things, and even knows a big shot like Tianshu Xing, still be a small clerk after two or three years?

Therefore, the more perfect Zhiyi behaves, the bigger his loopholes are in Bai Qiyun's eyes.

Bai Qiyun straightened up, silently walked to Zhiyi's side, and gently patted his shoulder.

The next second, Zhiyi's vision suddenly went dark, his consciousness seemed to be disconnected, and his whole body fell forward like a green onion.

Bai Qiyun helped the unconscious Zhiyi to the desk and arranged him in a sleeping position on the table.

Since Zhiyi cannot find any loopholes in his words, he can only use other methods.

After covering up his breath again, Bai Qiyun directly put his hand on the back of Zhiyi's head in front of everyone.

This should have been a strange scene, but no one in the office noticed it.

Because he was just asking, Bai Qiyun did not use any technique with serious consequences like searching for souls.

He directly injected his power into Zhiyi's sea of ​​consciousness, making the limitations of his consciousness gradually blurred.

In other words, it was like giving him veritaserum, and no matter what he asked, he would answer without reservation based on his memory.

"What is your connection with the Fools?"

Bai Qiyun went straight to the point and asked his questions directly like he was interrogating a prisoner.

Zhiyi buried his head on the table and responded uncontrollably.

"Fools...have money dealings."

Hearing this, Bai Qiyun's eyes flashed with the color 'Sure enough'.

This method is still fast, but verbal testing is too slow.

No wonder immortals always like to use magic to go straight. This method of breaking the rules is indeed very convenient.

Bai Qiyun calmed down and then asked.

"Did you and the Fools direct and act in this incident?"

"No, it was ordered by the fools."

"Order?"

As soon as these words came out, Bai Qiyun's brows and eyes were filled with doubts.

The Fools ordered Zhiyi to expose them and then compensate Liyue's official Sanzuo Mine.

Are they sick? Do they think they have too much money?

Naturally, this answer could not satisfy Bai Qiyun, so he immediately asked.

"Why would they order you to reveal their presence?"

But this time Zhiyi hesitated and couldn't answer.

Obviously, he did not know the intentions of the fools.

Seeing this, Bai Qiyun immediately changed his question.

"Why do you think they would expose themselves?"

Bai Qiyun's thoughts were very agile. Sure enough, after changing the question, Zhiyi poured out his thoughts like beans poured out of a bamboo tube.

"I think they are trying to cover up their real purpose. As far as I know, the Fools had planned to go to the Layer Rock Abyss half a year ago to find out. However, due to the situation inside Liyue at that time, they did not take action. Knowing that there was someone

They started this matter after Huo Ningguang's cronies left Liyue."

Ning Guang’s cronies? Isn’t that the ‘Silver Flash Wind’ who has been running errands for her?

Bai Qiyun nodded slightly.

It seemed that his guess was indeed correct. The Fools were actually wary of their group's movements in Liyue, so they took advantage of their departure to take action.

After all, he had fought with the young master before, and although the aftermath was fragmented, he still remembered that he seemed to have torn off one of the young master's arms.

In addition, the Silver Flash Wind was traveling back and forth in the Mongolian, Liyue, Daozhu, and Three Kingdoms areas at that time, and it had already gained a great reputation.

Bai Qiyun even encountered a junior adventurer coming over to ask for his autograph.

Under such circumstances, the Fools would naturally not arrogantly mobilize an army of hundreds of people to invade the Strata Rock Abyss without confirming the whereabouts of Bai Qiyun and his party.

If you think about it this way, it's quite reasonable.

"Then why do all the fools go to the Rock Abyss? For example...the Spin Demon Society?"

Bai Qiyun tried to get some hints from Zhiyi again.

But the strange thing is that this time, even if he used insinuations, Zhiyi could not say another word from his mouth.

He didn't hesitate, he simply shut his mouth.
