Chapter 292 Canghai Jun’s Plan
“Flower…”
Sitting alone in the front hall, Li Chu couldn't help but wonder what the little tip that Gu Ying gave him that day meant. The center of a storm that destroyed Shenluo City...
Li Chu would never allow such a thing to happen.
Since coming to Shenluo City, the many struggles Li Chu has experienced have all had the shadow of Lord Canghai behind them, and a vague thread can be formed.
If we can sort out this thread, perhaps we can understand Lord Canghai's conspiracy.
But it is too difficult to just think about it.
As soon as he thought of this, a long-lost voice emerged in Li Chu's mind again.
Why not ask the magical old Taoist priest?
As soon as I thought of this, I lit three long incense sticks.
Wisps of green smoke rose up, and after a moment, they gathered into the shape of a human with an immortal look, and the overflowing demeanor of a master floated throughout the entire hall.
"My disciple..." Yu Qian'an looked at Li Chu and said with a smile: "Today seems to be the day when the Flower City Convention begins. Didn't you go out for a walk?"
Li Chu replied: "Disciple has no intention of wandering around for the time being."
"Oh?" the old Taoist asked, "But is there anything bothering you?"
“…”
Li Chu was silent for a while, then said: "Master, didn't you ask me to help you find your son?"
"Yes!" Yu Qian'an slapped his forehead and then lamented, "My poor little treasure."
"I have been in Shenluo City for many days, but I still can't find Guo Xiaobao. Besides, the Huadu Convention has started..." Li Chu was a little worried: "I am worried that the group of demons will take advantage of this event to stir up trouble, but there are some things...I can't figure it out."
"What do you mean, just tell me what you mean?"
Yu Qian'an nodded with a calm smile, which made people feel at ease.
Then, Li Chu spent most of the day narrating everything related to Lord Canghai that he had encountered since arriving in Shenluo City.
Although the master and disciple have talked several times during this period, they have never discussed it as seriously as they did today.
For a moment, it seemed as if they had returned to the old Deyun period when there were only the master and the disciple, and the scene of the small backyard of the Taoist temple was recreated.
Sure enough, after finishing his speech, Yu Qian'an once again showed that familiar "everything is under control" smile.
"It's just some small conspiracy." The old Taoist priest clapped his hands, "It's very simple."
"Oh?" Li Chu leaned forward.
"Based on the information you have access to, we can actually figure out his general plan."
"He first made a deal with the doctor named Liu Yishou, in order to get the doctor to help him exchange the arm of a dragon servant from the Dragon Country so that he could abduct the baby thunder dragon."
"He used the baby Thunder Dragon to trade with the Beiming Sect. It is unknown what he got from this transaction..."
"Then there is the deal with the Yin family. I don't know what benefits he gave to the descendants of the Yin family, but the descendants of the Yin family looted the Extreme Yang Boy and the Xuan Yin Body, obviously to perform the Xuan Yin Formation. The Xuan Yin Formation can gather the extreme yin energy in the world, and the function of the Xuan Yin Body is to store this extreme yin energy."
"The purpose of his use of these extremely yin energies is probably related to Xuanwu. Because Xuanwu is one of the four symbols and the most powerful fighter in the world, he did everything he could to plunder the Xuanbingjian just to communicate with Xuanwu. But Xuanwu would not be used by him if it was just communication."
"The bargaining chip he used to trade with Xuanwu was the human body that was filled with extremely yin energy! As long as Xuanwu devoured those people, even if his realm could no longer be improved, he could still gain a blessing in terms of strength, and from then on he would be superior to the other three elephants."
"And what he wants Xuanwu to do for him must be of corresponding difficulty..." Yu Qian'an stroked his beard: "It is very likely that he wants to take advantage of the Huadu Conference to destroy Shenluo City."
"Destruction?" Li Chu frowned.
"It's just a guess..." Yu Qian'an shook his head: "What he wants to do, who can be sure? But he called such a big black tortoise over, it can't be to wish the big brother and sister-in-law in Shenluo City a happy new year."
Li Chu frowned and thought for a while.
this……
A little conspiracy?
Is it really that simple?
In fact, he could figure out the general idea with his mind. The reason why he couldn't immediately understand Canghai Jun's intentions like Yu Qian'an was that he lacked a lot of "knowledge".
After thinking for a while, he asked again: "By the way, Senior Gu asked me to give you a piece of linen clothing. Master... can you tell fortunes?"
"Oh? She told you everything?"
The old Taoist priest smiled indifferently again.
"I learned a few tricks when I was traveling around the world. I thought, it's always good to have more skills!"
"I can't say I know it, I can only say I know a little bit."
A little bit...
Can I beat the heir of this generation of Mai Yi just by learning casually? Li Chu couldn't help asking, "Senior Gu told me that day that she saw Shenluo City in a storm during her deduction. Master, can you deduce a hexagram for Shenluo City?"
Back then, Gu Ying's deduction skills were not as good as her master's, but perhaps her master is still better than her now.
"Alas." Yu Qian'an said leisurely, "Disciple, don't think that the Sackcloth Art is omnipotent. The so-called divination and deduction, no matter how strong it is, can only be regarded as nine-tenths of destiny, and the remaining one-tenth of human affairs is the key to everything. Many times, predicting the future is not a good thing. Because of this, the master has sealed the divination for many years."
Looking at Li Chu's eager eyes.
Yu Qian'an sighed again and said, "Forget it, I will make an exception and deduce this once."
But he was seen with his eyes slightly closed, his beard trembling, counting with his hands repeatedly, and changing his hand seals from time to time.
After a while.
The old Taoist priest did not open his eyes, but tilted his head and said slowly: "I saw that in Shenluo City..."
"Hmm?" Li Chu became serious.
"There is a young lady throwing a bouquet. She is so pretty. Her figure and appearance are simply..."
Li Chu: “?”
"Of course, this is not the point." Feeling his disciple's confusion, Yu Qian'an said with a straight face, "There is something wrong with the hydrangea she is about to throw. You have to hurry over to stop it, or else something bad will happen!"
"Something's wrong?"
Li Chu's mind instantly turned to the stage. Sure enough, in the middle of the crowd, there was a figure throwing a spherical object down from the stage.
And within that object... there was a faint fluctuation of true energy.
The flower at the center of the storm...
Are you talking about the oiran Xie Shirong?
Li Chu raised his eyebrows and said, "Okay, I'll go now."
With a whooshing sound.
His figure turned into a streak of fire and disappeared.
What remained there, besides the curling smoke, was the faint voice of the old Taoist priest.
"Disciple...Master can only help you up to this point."
The smoke dissipated in an instant.
…
Yuhang Town, Shilipo, Deyun Temple.
The old Taoist priest squatted in a corner by the wall, spoke stealthily, then quickly stood up and returned to the backyard.
In the backyard, Xie Jinhua, dressed in a mink coat, was sitting on a stone bench with a well-behaved little koi next to her. They were looking intently at a mirror in front of them.
The light and shadow flickered on the mirror. It was clearly the same treasure as Yu Qian'an's bronze mirror, but it was much larger in size.
The scene was a stage with a woman in white on it. It was the scene of the Flower City Convention! Seeing Yu Qian'an coming back, Xie Jinhua glanced at him and said unhappily, "Hurry up! It took a lot of effort for my men in Shenluo City to send us the live footage of the Flower City Convention. Why are you still dithering?"
The old Taoist priest waved his sleeves and said righteously, "I am not interested in these."
After saying.
So he sat obediently on a small stool next to the stone bench.
"Don't give me that." Xie Jinhua rolled her eyes. "I don't know what a jerk you are."
"hehe."
Yu Qian'an watched intently and shook his head and smiled.
"Jinhua, you don't understand me as well as I understand you."
Happy 15th day of the new year to everyone.
