Chapter 2558 Seven Days

"That's right..." Zhang Yu nodded and said: "The black market is isolated overseas and only opens once every five years. It is not easy to go to the island to check the details. If you go to the island when the black market is open, you will also be subject to the black market. Strict surveillance makes it impossible to move around at will. In other words, outsiders basically have no conditions to enter Laojun Palace to understand the situation. Therefore, it must be an insider who told outsiders the layout of Laojun Palace."

"This should be correct." The young man also nodded, then looked at the Great Protector and said: "The Great Protector invited us here just to tell us this..."

"Of course not. I'm asking you two to help me. I'm not just telling you, I'm asking you to help me find the traitor." The Great Protector said sternly.

"Find the traitor..." Zhang Yu frowned and said, "The Great Protector knows all about the people in the black market. He doesn't even know who the traitor is. How can the two of us find him..."

"I also know that this matter is a bit difficult, but there are really not many people here that I can trust. You..." At this point, the Great Protector suddenly pointed to Zhang Yu and said seriously: "You are the one I trust most at the moment. people!"

"I..." Zhang Yu couldn't help but pointed to his nose and said, "I am just an outsider..."

"It's true that you are an outsider, but you also saved me when I was in the most critical moment... So, I can trust you..." the Great Protector said seriously.

"Thank you, Great Protector, for being considerate." Zhang Yu said quickly.

He also understood the meaning of the Great Protector. To be honest, if he had killed the Great Protector at that time, the Great Protector would have died. Because at that time, the Great Protector had no power to fight back. That's how people are. In that situation, since you didn't kill me, it at least means that you are not on the same side as your enemy.

Especially now, there must be an undercover agent in the black market. The Great Protector doesn't know who this person is, so he chose not to kill him as the person he trusts most.

The young man next to Zhang Yu said at this moment: "Great Protector, we are new here, and we don't know anything about the black market... You know the situation here very well, and you can't tell who the traitor is, so what happens to the two of us? judge……"

The Great Protector put down the hand pointing at Zhang Yu and said slowly: "Many times, a submissive person may not be reliable, and a person who goes against you may not necessarily become a traitor. Although I know the situation here well, let me When I try to judge who is a traitor, I will definitely have a subjective tendency, and that includes other people around me. If they are asked to investigate, they will also be subjective and unable to objectively find the real traitor."

"When you put it like that, I understand. It's because I'm too familiar with you, so I tend to be too one-sided when looking for traitors. In this way, the real traitor will take advantage of the loopholes." The young man said.

"You are also very smart, and I did not misjudge the person. You are right, that's the truth... There is not much food in Laojun's palace now, and we can't keep entangled with our opponents like this... Let's put it this way, on the island There is still a boat in the warehouse, and it only takes half a day to successfully assemble it and set sail... However, this must wait until the water level recedes and the island is exposed before the boat can be pushed into the sea..." The Great Protector said slowly again said.

Zhang Yu and the young people all understand this truth. Now that the water level is so high, we can't just throw the boat into the water on the sloping hillside. Isn't that a joke? Furthermore, this is a big ship. An ordinary small ship cannot sail in the sea at all. If there is a slight wind and wave, it may capsize.

The Great Protector continued: "I analyzed the current water level and found that it will take at least seven days to recede. In other words, we can only leave here when the food is almost exhausted. After all, no matter how good a person's cultivation is, We need to eat. We understand this truth, and our opponents also understand this truth, because if there are their people among us, they must also know that there are boats on the mountain. They must take action within seven days, I don’t know what they will do, but I know they must have a trump card! These seven days must be the last darkness before dawn..."

Having said this, the Great Protector paused for a moment before continuing: "So, I need you two to do me a favor, find the undercover here as soon as possible, and then find those people... let me catch them all!"

The analysis of the Great Protector was so detailed that Zhang Yu could not help but admire him.

But Zhang Yu still said: "Great Protector, we both know nothing about the situation of Laojun Palace, and we really don't have any subjective tendencies. But the problem is that we don't even know the terrain of Laojun Palace, so we accidentally bumped into each other. Yes, I’m afraid I can’t tell the difference between east, west and north. Moreover, there are so many overt and hidden sentries here. Once I bump into them, I’m afraid it will be easily misunderstood by your people, and it might be troublesome if we try again.”

"That's true." The young man also said.

"I have already considered this for you..." the Great Protector said, pointing to a vase next to the bookshelf. In the vase, there was a scroll. He said calmly: "Go and take out the scroll from the vase."

"Okay." Zhang Yu agreed, stood up, and went over to take the scroll out of the vase.

The voice of the Great Protector sounded again, "You two, open it and take a look. This is the topographic map of our Laojun Palace. I will explain it to you."

"Thank you, Great Protector." Zhang Yu returned to the original place and sat down, untied the scroll and laid it flat on the ground.

The Great Protector was blind after all, so he asked: "Where is the mountain gate?"

"On..." Zhang Yu took a look and then determined that the mountain gate was on the side of the Great Protector, "on your side..."

The Great Protector reached out and touched it. His palm first touched the bottom of the scroll, then moved forward, and soon reached the position marked with the mountain gate. He said directly: "This is the mountain gate. Keep going forward. This is the cloister. Next to the cloister is the duty room. Further ahead are the Bell Tower and Drum Tower..."

Good guy, the Great Protector started to explain from the mountain gate and slowly moved forward. Every place was full of treasures. For example, it is clearly stated where Zhang Yu lives now and where other guests are recuperating. Then we continued to the area around Laojun Hall, as well as the Commandment Hall and other buildings, all of which were clearly marked. Further forward, there is the backyard, which belongs to the inner house. There is where the wife of the headmaster lives, and there is the courtyard where he lives, as well as the courtyards of the acting headmaster, the other three guardians and the four main hall masters.

There are clear levels of hierarchy in Laojun's palace. Those above the hall master have their own separate courtyards. At the level of the chief steward, four people live in one courtyard. Normally, there are a total of twenty big stewards in the black market, but now there are only four left.
