Chapter 174: Sneaking into the Jiangnan Palace
real?
This was somewhat beyond Li Chu's expectations.
Of course, whether it was true or not, it was just curiosity and had little to do with him. Then, he asked questions related to himself.
"Did you also capture the Koi fish that originally lived in the Blackwater River?"
"Heishui River?" Mr. Wu's pupils dilated slightly, and he immediately recalled quickly in his mind.
After a long pause, he replied, "I can't quite remember. Anyway... a few days ago, I did catch a lot of koi for the King of Jiangnan in the water system of Hangzhou Prefecture. There must be at least 8,000 koi, and there are also several large families. What are the characteristics of the family you mentioned, young Taoist priest?"
Li Chu said: "The leader of that Koi tribe is named Liu Chaoan."
"..." Mr. Wu smiled awkwardly, "Little Taoist priest, who would ask the fish's surname and name when catching it?"
Li Chu glanced at him and asked, "Why do you catch so many koi?"
"It's because I believe in the evil god..." When Mr. Wu mentioned this, he smacked his lips again, "Lord Evil God... No, that guy just now, it forced me to sacrifice my luck, and then cast the power of witchcraft on me."
"And King Jiangnan...he wants to refine the luck dragon."
"The Dragon of Fortune?"
Li Chu's eyes were not sharp, but very bright, as if they could see through people's hearts, making Mr. Wu frightened and dare not hide anything.
Of course, maybe he just made it up in his mind.
It's reasonable to be scared after just seeing such a sword.
In short, he stammered and answered, "I once gave him a small suggestion. It was really just a casual suggestion. That is to say... the dragon of luck can swallow up the fate of the country and become the king or emperor..."
Only then did Li Chu nod.
Mr. Wu advised the King of Jiangnan to refine the dragon of luck and swallow up the national destiny, and he captured the beasts of luck for him everywhere, and all the koi in Hangzhou Prefecture suffered as a result.
He could also take a portion of it and offer it to the evil spirit. And all these evil spells also originated from the evil spirit just now.
In this way, the context becomes very clear.
As for the part about the Creation Pill and the Demon Sect...
He continued to ask: "King Jiangnan is also colluding with the Demon Sect?"
"Young Taoist priest even knows this." Mr. Wu was surprised and dared not lie anymore.
"He does have connections with the Demon Sect, and the Demon Sect has sent a few young men to assist him. But those young men are all good at talking and not reliable in their work. They haven't been seen for many days. I heard that he went out to find someone to deal with a very powerful young Taoist priest. Haha, I don't know which young Taoist priest needs such a big fanfare..."
A wise man named Guo once said that naked hatred exists only among colleagues.
Mr. Wu and the people from the Demon Sect all work under the King of Jiangnan. Although they appear to be friendly with each other on the surface, they are secretly at odds with each other.
The people in the Demon Sect had the support of a big tree, so they were treated with greater courtesy. But Mr. Wu worked hard and put in more effort.
As a result, his hostility towards those from the Demon Sect was particularly strong.
After hearing that Huo Zhuge was wandering around looking for someone to deal with a young Taoist priest, Mr. Wu had always been a laughing stock, and at this time he habitually sneered twice.
Then he looked at Li Chu's thoughtful face.
The laughter stopped abruptly.
No way…
Li Chu frowned and asked, "Who is the Taoist priest he wants to deal with?"
"I heard he's a very handsome guy..."
Mr. Wu's eyes widened. He had never thought of the connection before. If this was the person in front of him, then it would be normal to travel around the mountains and mountains to attract people.
He called over all the evil gods he believed in.
The result is that I have become a non-believer since then.
Li Chu became a little cautious. It seemed that his killing of the sword-drawing enthusiast from the Yanyue Sect had left some trouble.
If a demon sect with such a strong foundation keeps fighting the younger ones against the older ones, it will be really troublesome...
After thinking for a while, he asked the last question.
"What is the relationship between King Jiangnan and the Yiyao Sect?"
In the dungeon of the Yiyao Sect, there is a man who looks similar to King Jiangnan. It is unreasonable to say that they have no connection.
"Yi Yao Men?" Mr. Wu was a little confused when he heard the name and shook his head.
Obviously, he was not familiar with this demon force from the Western Regions.
After a series of questions, Li Chu had some ideas in mind. He picked up Mr. Wu and prepared to go back.
Mr. Wu was startled: "Little Taoist priest, you won't let me go?"
Li Chu also covered his mouth.
Let you go?
How is that possible.
There is still a lot to do.
…
The long night is finally over.
When the morning light shines on Daxiu Mountain again, the morning bell of Shuangfei Temple rings.
Monk Shenmu had already been tempering his body under the waterfall, and his fists and kicks could faintly carry the roars of dragons and tigers.
This has been his unshakable habit for many years.
In his opinion, a monk who has not gotten up to practice at the hour of Mao does not take his practice seriously at all.
Soon, a figure brighter than the morning light appeared on the shore.
Monk Shenmu had sharp eyes and spotted the figure at once. He then laughed loudly twice and jumped to the shore with his upper body naked, with the dragon perched on it.
The person who came was Li Chu.
"Long time no see. How have you been lately, Taoist Li?" Shenmu asked with a smile.
The muscles on his chest bulged as if he was dancing.
"Not bad." Li Chu smiled and nodded, then said: "I came here to ask you for a favor."
"Oh?" The monk's eyes lit up. "Master Xiao Li wants my help?"
His chest muscles suddenly tensed up and his whole body became excited.
It was as if I suddenly found the meaning of life.
pleasure.
"Yeah." Li Chu told him his purpose.
It turned out that after thinking about it last night, he decided to go to the Jiangnan Palace to check on the koi. If Xiaoyue'er's clansmen were there, they would help rescue her no matter what.
but……
He had a vague feeling that something was not quite right with the King of Jiangnan.
So he wanted to invite Monk Shenmu to go with him. If he had the chance to meet the King of Jiangnan, he would be able to tell the real from the fake with his keen eyes.
After hearing this, Monk Shenmu laughed and said, "No problem, it's the King of Jiangnan. I saw him once when he came to Shuangfei Temple to burn incense a few years ago. If I see him again, I will be able to tell whether he is real or fake at a glance."
Li Chu asked, "What was the King of Jiangnan like the last time you saw him?"
Monk Shenmu recalled: "He was young and looked silly."
That's right.
Li Chu became even more suspicious.
"Okay, Taoist Xiao Li, tell us the plan." Monk Shenmu smiled and said, "How do we enter the Jiangnan Palace?"
Li Chu said: "I just went over there and found that the Jiangnan Palace is recruiting servants..."
…
Half an hour later.
Li Chu, who was handsome and elegant in his green shirt and small hat, and Shen Mu, a tall and strong man beside him whose short shirt was wrinkled tightly, appeared on the long street outside the palace.
There was a long queue on the street at this time.
The servants in the palace were paid much more than the menial workers in ordinary households, but the work they did was not much different, so naturally everyone was vying to get a try.
"Wow——" the monk Shenmu exclaimed.
The man in front turned around, and Li Chu took a look and actually recognized him.
"Chen Huaji?"
"Master Xiao Li?"
The two called out to each other, then raised their fingers at the same time, "Sh ...
In the team, three people gathered together.
Chen Huaji whispered, "Why is Taoist Priest Xiao Li here? Is your Taoist temple so bad now?"
Li Chu said calmly: "I want to check some things, what about you?"
Chen Huaji said: "I am here as an undercover agent."
Li Chu nodded and immediately understood.
It seems that Chaotianque still has doubts about the Jiangnan Palace, so he sent people to infiltrate it.
This kind of job is indeed very suitable for Chen Huaji.
He took a special Qi-retaining elixir, practiced a special Qi-retaining technique, put on tattered clothes, and put on a pair of shifty eyes.
No one could tell that this was a public servant.
"I just didn't expect that this palace would have to test special skills to recruit a servant. I wonder if I can pass..." Chen Huaji muttered nervously.
The team moved forward very quickly because nine out of ten people in front were scolded back within a second.
The interviewer was a woman and she looked very stern.
Soon, it was the turn of the three.
The three of them pushed and shoved each other, and finally Li Chu, who did not fight or compete, took the first place.
Li Chu walked forward calmly.
The maid who was dressed in gorgeous clothes and was in charge of the interview suddenly smiled before asking any questions.
She smiled, then raised her eyebrows and asked shyly, "What's your name?"
"Li Chu."
"What are your specialties?"
"No."
"What a unique personality. You passed. Go get your badge."
After a brief conversation, Li Chu passed it over indifferently.
Monk Shenmu looked at it and nodded, as if he had learned something.
When it was his turn, he also walked forward with his head held high.
The maid asked, "What's your name?"
"Shen Damu."
"What are your specialties?"
"No."
"roll."
"No..." Monk Shenmu panicked. This seemed to be different from the reference answer?
He waved his hands and said, "I'm good at fighting."
The head maid frowned and said, "All the guards in our mansion are very good at fighting, so we don't need servants."
Shenmu was embarrassed for a moment, scratching his head frantically, and after a while, he showed an expression of great sacrifice and said:
"My specialty is..."
The head maid's eyes jumped, and she whispered, "Pass."
It was Chen Huaji's turn, and the same problem occurred.
"What's the name?"
"Chen Huaji."
"What are your specialties?"
"Sister, you are so beautiful."
"Haha, I'm asking about your specialty."
"Sister, you have such a great temperament."
"Specialty..."
"Sister, your makeup is so beautiful."
"pass."
After Chen Huaji came jumping over, Monk Shenmu felt indignant.
"Why did I have to sacrifice so much...but he was able to pass this? What's his specialty?"
Chen Huaji said: "I have already demonstrated it."
Monk Shenmu was confused and looked at Li Chu: "Did you see it? What special skills did he show?"
Li Chu coldly spat out a word: "Lick."
