Chapter 226 You actually make friends with such a person...
This day.
There was a knock on the door of Deyun Temple, which had not yet been opened. Du Lanke and Taoist Du, who had just arrived, stepped forward to open the door.
When I opened the door, I saw that the person coming was an elderly woman.
She looks tall and thin, with sharp eyes and fair skin. In fact, if you look closely, she is quite pretty. But at first glance, no one will notice her beauty, but will be frightened by her somewhat cold eyes.
Dulanke did the same and even subconsciously took a step back.
Does he look like he has bad intentions? But Taoist Du is also an old hand, so he won't be flustered by a fierce look. He quickly adjusted his expression, smiled slightly, and nodded gently.
The woman glared at Du Lanke's face and asked, "Are you Yu Qian'an's apprentice?"
Taoist Priest Du denied: "No."
"I was saying..." The woman walked in without thinking, and said as she walked, "You are only a few years younger than him, how could you be his apprentice?"
Dulanke said, "I am his disciple's grandson."
Woman: “…”
Dulanke: “…”
The awkward atmosphere froze for a moment.
The woman broke the silence and asked, "Then...what about Yu Qian'an's apprentice?"
Dulanke looked up at the empty sky and said, "My master just went out."
"he……"
The woman seemed to want to ask something, but before she could finish, she heard a "whoosh" sound, as if something fell from a high altitude.
When I looked up, I saw a meteor! Plop——
In the blink of an eye, the meteor landed on the open space in the yard, causing a small cloud of smoke and dust.
When the dust settled, a figure in a Taoist robe was seen, head down, with his entire head buried in the soil, in a standard "upside-down onion" posture. Next to him was a large sword that was still flashing red light.
Although his head is buried in the soil, one can still feel his extraordinary temperament.
Dulanke then stretched out a hand and pointed, "He's back..."
puff.
After being stiff for a few seconds, Li Chu moved his body, stuck out his butt, and pulled his head out of the soil like an old farmer pulling a radish.
Of course, the whole process was extremely cool.
Although his face hit the ground first, when his head was unearthed, there was no other damage except for some dust.
This made Dulanke feel relieved.
As long as the master's handsome appearance is preserved, Deyun Branch will maintain the greatest market competitiveness.
After Li Chu emerged from the ground, he looked at Dulanke and said calmly, "Flying with a sword is still too difficult to control."
Taoist Du replied weakly: "Maybe it's because you flew a little too fast..."
Actually, what he wanted to say was not a little fast...
It's very fast, extremely fast, so fast that it's ridiculous!
Even if flying a sword is the fastest way to fly, you still have to follow the basic rules, right? He was still saying calmly, "I'll give it a try," and then he disappeared, leaving only a line in the air. You just learned how to fly a sword, and it's a great feat that you didn't die from the fall, okay? In fact, it usually takes at least a year to practice sword-flying to the point of flying with a sword. And the fact that Li Chu succeeded in flying on his first try already surprised Dulanke.
Now there is just a small "flaw" in the landing process, which is fatal to ordinary cultivators, but for Li Chu it is just a little dust on his face. It is normal.
How can you learn to fly without experiencing a few "sword disasters"?
Li Chu asked again: "Then how can we fly slower?"
“Just don’t inject so much energy at once.” Dulanke replied.
Li Chu frowned slightly, "But I only injected half a trace of spiritual power."
At this time.
The woman over there asked directly: "Are you Yu Qian'an's apprentice?"
Li Chu then turned his gaze towards her and replied, "Yes, you are?"
"I came here to see you." The woman nodded and revealed her identity: "My last name is Yang, and I am Guo Xiaobao's mother."
…
The huge room was empty.
The baby-faced young man in a wide robe with big sleeves leaned over the ground, his hands folded, his head resting respectfully on the back of his hands, his demeanor pious.
The desk and stove in the room had been removed, leaving only a large scroll hanging on one wall. The pattern on the scroll was a vast sea painted in ink, with calm waves.
But as he lowered his head and waited, the scene suddenly changed!
On the vast sea, the wind rolled up the dark clouds, and between the dark clouds and the sea...
A tall figure appeared.
There was a sound of splashing water, and the boy smelled the scent of the sea.
Click.
A slightly wet footstep stepped on the wooden floor.
The young man then tensed his body and said in a voice full of utmost respect: "Welcome, Master."
In front of him, a figure dressed as a scholar suddenly appeared out of nowhere, and it looked like he had walked out of the scroll.
The moonlight in the room spilled onto the ground, and the scholar's face could not be seen clearly for a moment, but from the vague and soft outlines, it could be seen that he had a quite handsome appearance.
"Snow God Ling is dead?"
The scholar did not wake the boy, but walked straight to the side of the room and looked out the window at the snow and wind outside.
"yes……"
The boy's voice was trembling.
"Actually, I don't care about his life. There are many people in the world who want to stand out. I can just find another one." The scholar said leisurely.
"But the Xuanbing Jian is lost. This is very serious."
"My Lord!" The young man immediately responded in a trembling voice: "This... this is also something that is difficult to predict."
"Why are you so scared?" The scholar suddenly chuckled, "I am the most reasonable person. It's not your fault, so I certainly won't blame you. Get up."
"Yes!" The young man then stood up.
When I stood up, I found that my back was soaked.
He had also seen the current Demon Sect Feather Emperor before, but he had never been so scared. He could only say that the one in front of him was truly the most cold-blooded and ruthless person he had ever seen in his life.
"But the Xuanbing Tablet must be recovered." The scholar turned around and said, "You are responsible for this matter. You are responsible for mobilizing all the people, including me. As long as there is a clear target, I can personally take action."
The young man bowed his head quickly, "If the Lord is willing to help, then there will be no mistakes."
"oh?"
The scholar raised an eyebrow, as if wanting to hear what he had to say.
"The Xuanbing Jian is on Xue Shen Ling. He can use the Xuanbing Immortal Body to cover up the Xuanbing Jian's aura and avoid the Xuanwu Prison Division's detection, but this effect will not work on others. Although I don't know where the Xuanbing Jian is now, the Xuanwu Prison Division's people will definitely know. As long as we keep an eye on the arrival of the Xuanwu Prison Division's people, we will definitely find the whereabouts of the Xuanbing Jian."
The boy immediately spoke a lot of words.
"Are you sure the Xuanbing Tablet is still in Shenluo City?" The scholar thought for a moment before asking.
"Confirmed." The young man wiped his forehead. "I can calculate that the Mysterious Ice Tablet is in the city, but I can't figure out where exactly... It may be that the owner's cultivation is higher than mine, so I can't locate it."
"Okay, I believe you." The scholar smiled slightly, "We paid a lot of price to steal the Xuanbing Tablet from Xuanwu Prison. If it is lost, I will never accept it."
"I will definitely do my best." The young man nodded again.
"Also, the deal with the Beiming Sect should be concluded tonight, right? Give them the baby thunder dragon and tell them to get lost. I don't want to deal with these lunatics anymore."
"Yes." The young man replied, "Everything is ready at Luoshen Pavilion."
…
Divide and observe the front hall.
Li Chu sat cross-legged on the cushion, feeling a little nervous.
According to Yu Qian'an's description, the girl in front of him was someone who almost became his master's wife. However, she eventually chose the friend of his master named Guo from the two suitors.
This also directly led to the breakup between the master and his best friend.
Yu Qian'an did not explain the emotional entanglement of that year in detail.
It was probably because they came out of the mountain to carry out some important mission related to the rise and fall of Kyushu, and that good friend withdrew after he got married, so the master took on all the responsibilities alone...
This kind of epic storyline.
Li Chu was also full of respect for this woman who had rejected his master.
Madam Yang opposite also had sharp eyes, looking around at every tree and blade of grass in the temple.
Dulanke sat next to him.
She asked Li Chu, "You are a good-looking kid, why did you accept such an old and ugly apprentice?"
Taoist Priest Du quietly stood up and left, squatting at the gate to get some fresh air.
The fox girl comes to serve tea.
Madam Yang took a look and said, "This little fox has good aptitude, but why is his cultivation so low? Is it because he is not putting his mind to the right place, or is it because you, as the master, are not strict in training him?"
The fox girl ran away with her tail between her legs.
Halfway through, Wang Longqi came back from outside and was stared at by her, and suddenly felt cold all over.
Madam Yang immediately asked, "Why does the Taoist temple allow such a dishonest person to walk around freely?"
Wang Longqi also slipped away with his tail between his legs.
Li Chu was amazed at her ability to judge people, but he had to answer, "He is my friend, he is just staying here temporarily."
Madam Yang looked at Li Chu and shook her head. "You actually made friends with this kind of person. It seems that you are not a good person either... I have to reconsider my evaluation of you."
“…”
Li Chu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
"Mrs. Yang, why don't we talk about...Xiaobao's matter first?"
After all, this matter is something that the master attaches great importance to. He came all the way to Shenluo City just for this purpose, and finally waited for the real owner to come.
In addition, I also hope that Mrs. Yang will stop examining the Taoist temple.
in other words.
Please stop scolding me.
When talking about her son, Mrs. Yang's eyes became less sharp, and even revealed a bit of tenderness.
"That little bastard..."
"I think it might be because of his extremely yang body that he was chosen by some powerful evil sects. When I first found out that someone was monitoring us, I realized something was wrong. I also fought with them and found that they were powerful, so I quickly took him and hid."
"I wrote the letter to your master at that time. I didn't know who the other party was at that time, so I took Xiaobao and hid. But the other party seemed to have a master who was proficient in divination. Every time we hid, our location was always found. I fought with them several times, but I was defeated in the end, and they took Xiaobao away."
"But during the several fights, I was able to find out some of the background of those bastards. I feel that they are most likely from the Demon Sect."
"Demon Sect?" Li Chu repeated.
He had dealt with the Yanyue Sect in the Demon Sect before and had witnessed some of the strength of this behemoth.
"I just hate his father, that old bastard. He ran away not long after I gave birth to the child, and told me to go find that old bastard Yu Qian'an if I had any problems. If he were still alive, those bastards from the Demon Sect would never dare to mess with me."
Mrs. Yang paused for a moment and then thought of another output target.
Li Chu rubbed his brows and thought that this Madam Yang looked like a big troublemaker and he had to be careful in dealing with her.
He asked cautiously, "How can I help you? Can we find Xiaobao's location?"
"I only have a clue."
Madam Yang said, "I had planted a talisman on Xiaobao before, so I could sense his location at any time. But the talisman disappeared not long ago, and it might have been broken by someone. I was just about to go to the place where the talisman disappeared to investigate, and at that time I happened to hear about your Deyun Branch Temple, and knew that Yu Qian'an had sent someone here, so I came to find you."
"Actually, I have another question." Li Chu asked, "Since you discovered the traces of the people from the Demon Sect a long time ago and fought with them, why didn't you seek help from Chao Tianque?"
"I do think so." Madam Yang's expression changed, and she frowned and said, "It's because of his father, that old bastard, who did some shameful things and is now a wanted criminal in Chaotianque..."
"Even if it's a prisoner's child..." Li Chu frowned.
"And he is... the most wanted criminal in the world." Mrs. Yang continued.
Then...
etc……
A flash of light flashed through Li Chu's mind.
The people of the Heluo Dynasty were no strangers to Chaotianque's number one wanted criminal. On the walls of any city, the highest and most conspicuous one was that portrait.
"Could it be... Guo Longque?" he asked tentatively.
Mrs. Yang blinked and said, "The child is innocent."
Really! Li Chu was slightly surprised.
No wonder the master only mentioned that he had a friend named Guo and never said his name.
It is illegal to bring up this name!
In the Broken Monument Mountain in the north, there is a piece of land "above the sky, not the land of the king", where a group of thugs who claim to subvert the world gather.
This group of thugs gathered in one place, calling themselves "Human Fire", and did all kinds of things that went against the will of the world. However, due to their powerful forces and remote location, the imperial court had no good way to deal with them.
Regardless of what they called themselves, the Heluo Dynasty had only one definition for them: "rebels."
The supreme leader of this group of rebels was called Guo Longque.
No wonder Madam Yang didn't dare to ask Chao Tianque for help. Rebellion is a crime that will punish the entire clan! Once discovered, not only will her son not be saved, but she will also be implicated.
Li Chu touched his chin.
He was worried about more than that... He couldn't help but think of his master. Madam Yang's words just now appeared in his mind.
You actually make friends with this kind of person, then it seems that you are not a good person either. It seems that I should reconsider my attitude towards my master...
no……
After thinking for a moment, out of trust in his master, he suppressed his worries.
Instead, he turned his attention back to the current situation.
He then asked, "Putting aside other things, where was the last place you sensed the child's presence?"
Madam Yang looked at him deeply, as if showing some rare approval, and then replied:
"Luo Shen Pavilion."
