Siheyuan: Tathagata's Palm suppresses the entire courtyard!

His every word is still full of wisdom and guidance.

At this time, another problem that troubled Xu Mingjie emerged in his mind: Xu Damao's matter. Xu Damao was a villain who was mixed in the underground world. He was not only connected with the "Black Snake", but also bullied Lou Xiao'e. Lou Xiao'e was a pain point in his heart, and Xu Mingjie could not forget her experience. She had been tortured greatly under Xu Damao's coercion, and that feeling of powerlessness deeply hurt his heart.

Xu Mingjie decided to investigate Xu Damao's background and find the connection between him and the "Black Snake". He began to dig into Xu Damao's past and collect information through various channels. In the process, he encountered many obstacles, but he was not discouraged. Every clue and every detail was the key to his uncovering the truth.

He came to a remote bar where Xu Damao often appeared. The lights in the bar were dim, and the air was filled with the smell of alcohol and smoke. Xu Mingjie sat down at the bar, quietly waiting for the right time. His heart was full of tension and expectation, and everyone might be the clue he needed.

"Are you looking for Xu Damao?" Suddenly, a deep voice came from behind. Xu Mingjie turned around and saw a middle-aged man sitting behind him with a playful smile in his eyes.

"Who are you?" Xu Mingjie asked vigilantly, with a hint of seriousness in his tone.

"My name is Ah Hui, and I'm an old friend of Xu Damao." The man smiled sarcastically, "If you want to know about Xu Damao, you may be able to get some information from me."

Xu Mingjie was shocked. This was exactly the opportunity he needed. He decided to have an in-depth conversation with Ah Hui, trying to get more useful information from him.

"What is the connection between Xu Damao and 'Black Snake'?" Xu Mingjie asked directly.

Ah Hui's face became solemn, and he whispered, "Xu Damao is not a core figure in the Black Snake, but he has had close contact with some of its important members. His methods are extremely cruel, and he often uses the power in his hands to intimidate and blackmail. His cooperation with the Black Snake is more for his own benefit, not out of true loyalty."

Xu Mingjie was somewhat relieved. This information was good news for him. He knew that although Xu Damao was not the real mastermind behind the "Black Snake", his existence was an important clue.

"Have you seen any secret transactions between Xu Damao and other members of the 'Black Snake'?" Xu Mingjie continued to ask, hoping to get more information from it.

Ah Hui's eyes flashed with hesitation, and he was obviously worried about what Xu Mingjie said. "Xu Damao's secret transactions were mainly carried out in some hidden places. I know that he recently had a secret meeting with an important figure in the 'Black Snake'. But I don't know the specific location and details."

Xu Mingjie was excited. This might be the key to him finding more clues. He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. "Thank you for the information. If you have any other information, please feel free to contact me."

Ah Hui nodded and left the bar. Xu Mingjie felt that although his investigation had made some progress, the real challenge had just begun. He realized that the conspiracy of "Black Snake" was much more complicated than he had imagined, and there were more secrets behind Xu Damao waiting for him to uncover.

After returning to the courtyard, Xu Mingjie sorted out the information he had obtained from Ah Hui and prepared to report to his master. He knew that these clues might become an important breakthrough for them to reveal the truth about the "Black Snake". He sat at the table, with documents and notes in his hands piled up all over the table. His mind wandered between these information, trying to find a clear clue.

The master saw Xu Mingjie's nervous look and patted him on the shoulder. "Mingjie, you did a great job. Although this information needs to be further confirmed, we have already obtained some useful clues. Keep investigating, and you will definitely find the truth."

Xu Mingjie nodded, his heart full of gratitude and respect for his master. He knew that his master's support and guidance were crucial to him. Although the challenges he faced were becoming increasingly severe, he never gave up. Every step forward was full of hope and persistence.

He decided not to wait any longer and to take action immediately. He began to connect clues that might be related to the "Black Snake" and gradually narrowed the scope of the investigation. Although he was exhausted, every time he found a new clue, he felt a glimmer of hope.

A few days later, Xu Mingjie finally found a possible important target. He found some important documents related to "Black Snake" in a secret underground trading market. These documents showed that "Black Snake" was planning a large-scale conspiracy involving a large number of illegal transactions and secret capital flows. Xu Mingjie felt a strong sense of urgency in his heart. He knew that this conspiracy must be uncovered as soon as possible to avoid causing greater harm.

He brought the documents back to the courtyard and prepared to analyze them with his master. Although his master was still weak, he still gave Xu Mingjie the greatest support and guidance in his work. Together, they studied every detail in the documents, trying to find the key to reveal the truth about the "Black Snake".

During this time, Xu Mingjie's heart gradually became more determined. He knew that this battle was not only a test of his personal ability, but also a challenge to his inner beliefs. He had to overcome all difficulties, uncover the conspiracy behind it, buy more time for his master's recovery, and find the real answer for himself.

Xu Mingjie stood on the bustling street of the market. The sun shone through the morning mist onto the ground, and the whole market was lit up with warm light. The shouts of vendors, the conversations of customers, and the occasional laughter mixed together, forming a busy picture of life. Xu Mingjie's eyes swept across the various stalls in the market, and a strange solemnity appeared in his eyes. He seemed a little tired because of the intense work in recent days.

He took a deep breath, trying to put aside his inner anxiety and fatigue temporarily and focus on the task at hand. He decided to prepare a sumptuous dinner for the master, hoping to relax his tense mood in such a simple way and also bring some comfort to the master. Today, his task was to buy a fresh fish.

The fish stalls in the market were filled with all kinds of fish, some swimming in the pool, and some already processed and placed on ice. Xu Mingjie walked to a fish stall and saw the bright fish scales on the stall gleaming in the sun. He stood in front of the stall and carefully observed the condition of each fish.
