Chapter 273 Tang Wanzhou
The armor on Zuoqiu Cangwu's body was so dark that it could swallow up all the light around him. With his hands behind his back, he looked at the lights of thousands of houses spreading to the end of the night below the mountain, and felt a heroic feeling that the whole world was at his feet.
After listening to Zuoqiu Qingying's report, he said: "Li Weiyi is not a simple person. Even if he is unable to recover due to his lack of martial arts, he should not be underestimated."
Zuoqiu Qingying said: "My daughter will not underestimate the enemy."
"He is still a hidden man of Jiuli Hidden Sect. Even if Jiuli Hidden Sect is only trying to protect the seven strange insects, there will definitely be masters secretly following him. Don't act rashly before entering the underground immortal palace." Zuoqiu Zangwu warned.
Zuoqiu Qingying said: "I will take him to the seventh road to the underground fairy palace."
Zuoqiu Zangwu nodded gently: "Qin Zhihuan's team is on this road, and I personally trained him. With them here, there will be no mistakes!"
"Before you leave, take the Zuo brothers with you."
"Qingying, if you can succeed in this matter, you will definitely be able to sit in one of the top positions in Zuoqiu Sect in the future."
…
"Brother Weiyi, I have always remembered your kindness in saving me at the Qianlong Lantern Festival. It has been more than half a year, and I finally see you again."
Tuoba Butuo is a master at the level of the inheritor of the Northern Territory. He has a pure silver immortal body and a lively personality. However, facing Li Weiyi, who has experienced great ups and downs in life, he is very cautious in his words for fear of irritating the other party's fragile heart.
After all, he had heard a lot about Li Weiyi's suicide and decadence.
It took more than half a year before I got back on my feet.
Li Weiyi smiled and said, "Brother Tuoba has reached the Dao Seed Realm?"
“It’s just a glimpse of the way.”
Tuoba Butuo was a Dragon Seed Daoist, already at the second Dao Seed level, but he tried to remain humble as he led Li Weiyi to the Five Dragon Jade Chariot.
The Five-Dragon Jade Chariot is said to be the ancient emperor's chariot and is a peerless magical weapon and war treasure.
The five snow dragon spirits pulling the cart were each dozens of meters long, with a majestic aura and dragon breath, enough to scare away timid martial artists, making them tremble and dare not step forward.
The carriage at the rear was as big as a palace, magnificent and golden, and one had to climb jade steps to reach the door.
Tuoba Butuo smiled and said, "Go up, the young master has been waiting for you for a long time."
Li Weiyi was naturally not frightened by the scene in front of him. He climbed up the fourteen jade steps and walked into the meter-wide door. Inside was the dark-toned interior space of the car.
It is spacious and grand, but not at all gorgeous, and has a cold and wabi-sabi seriousness.
Tang Wanzhou sat at the head of the table, wearing a dark black suit. The space around him was distorted and blurred. When he saw Li Weiyi coming in, he immediately put down the golden bamboo slips in his hand. This was an ancient secret scroll, which recorded a space-related "imperial technique".
Normally, only the transcendent would come into contact with the imperial art.
The blur and distortion of the space disappeared, revealing Tang Wanzhou's handsome face without any makeup.
Her bright eyes, filled with countless thoughts, stared at Li Weiyi for a moment, then she took out the Lingtai Yanxing Stone fragment from the box and said straight to the point: "Li Weiyi, let's make a deal! Lend me the strange insect, or follow me to the underground immortal palace. As long as you agree, you can take this Lingtai Yanxing Stone fragment now."
Li Weiyi held his breath secretly, feeling that Tang Wanzhou's eyes were as sharp as a sword.
Being stared at by her was like being dissected.
It was as if all the secrets in her body were exposed before her eyes.
Li Weiyi made himself alert, not wanting to be compared to the other party and look like a lackey: "Young Master is not the first person to make such a request. There are too many people who covet the seven strange insects to count."
"I understand your concerns!"
Tang Wanzhou stood up, his back straight. Although he was half a head shorter than Li Weiyi, he had an imposing manner: "You are very outstanding, you have many treasures in your hands, and you face many dangers. But I can tell you clearly that the dangers I face are greater and more numerous than yours, and my enemies are more terrifying. But why would I be so high-profile and drive to Qiuzhou City? Instead of hiding and meeting you in the dark?"
Li Weiyi said: "Young Master wants to tell me that when everyone in the world knows that I went to the underground fairy palace with you, then I will be safe."
“This is just one of them!”
Tang Wanzhou continued, "I always believe that people with an open mind will not hide in the dark forever because of danger. Sometimes, you have to face danger and challenges head-on. Hiding is to stop hiding, not to keep living in disgrace."
Li Weiyi had a feeling that the other party was talking about him on the surface, but it seemed as if he was also talking about him.
Did she see something? Or was she testing me?
“Wow!”
Without seeing Tang Wanzhou taking any action, the wooden box on the table flew towards Li Weiyi.
Li Weiyi raised his hand to catch it, but after catching it, he regretted it.
It's not right to take it, and it's not right to return it.
Struggling...
Tang Wanzhou said: "Since you know about the Lingtai Yanxing Stone, you should also know about the Bhagara religion. It has been almost a year, and many things have been excavated from the underground immortal palace. It is almost certain that that is where the church of the ancient Bhagara religion is located."
"This Lingtai Yanxing Stone fragment was found inside."
"Since you want to be a mind master, you will need more Lingtai Yanxing Stones so that you can catch up with those people who went to Du'e Temple as a mind master. How can someone like you be willing to fall behind?"
"I can smell the scent of my kind in you."
Li Weiyi was finally tempted. The Lingtai Yanxing Stone and Xingzhou Pill were indeed two important resources for his rapid progress on the path of a spiritual master in the future.
He asked, "How deep have you explored the underground immortal palace?"
"The longest road has been explored for four to five hundred miles. For the entire underground immortal palace, the area that has been explored accounts for less than one percent of the total area."
Tang Wanzhou added: "Currently, the vicious insect swarms are causing headaches for all parties, and the losses are not small. It is said that one of your seven strange insects can release an aura comparable to that of a martial artist in the immortal realm. It will surely have a miraculous effect in the underground immortal palace."
"Li Weiyi, whether you believe it or not, in my heart, let alone seven larvae of Junhou-level strange insects, even if they were seven mature Junhou-level strange insects, I would not take them seriously at all."
"Based on your current level of cultivation, would you take seven strange insects comparable to Daozhong realm martial artists seriously?"
"Even if there were seven king-level and emperor-level insects, it would not be enough to shake my inner principles and bottom line and make me do something that distorts my heart. My state of mind has a high price."
"Take this Lingtai Yanxing Stone fragment!"
"If you agree to the deal, in five days, we will meet at the ancient Qifeng County City on the border between Fuzhou and Qiuzhou in Qiubei Plain. I will wait for you for one day at most!"
"If you don't come, just make friends. With just a Lingtai Yanxing Stone, you can make friends with the hidden god of Jiuli Hidden Gate... It's a very cheap price!"
Li Weiyi didn't know how he walked out of the Five Dragons Jade Locket. He landed on the ground, looked at the wooden box in his hand, and then looked back, sighing: "Such aura... Such spirit... What a young prince of the Northern Territory. Compared with her, I still have a long way to go in cultivation."
In front of her, there is simply no initiative at all.
Tuoba Bhutuo stepped forward and asked, "Have you reached an agreement with Shaojun?"
"She has negotiated it! I...I haven't reached an agreement yet..." Li Weiyi shook his head and smiled bitterly.
Tuoba Butuo smiled and said, "You'll get used to it! Even when a giant in the Immortal Realm talks to her, she will often make the decision first, letting the other party think about it slowly."
…
…………
The next day.
It was already afternoon when I finished the procedures for joining the Secret Realm Bureau.
After bidding farewell to Zuoqiu Zangwu, the four men and four horses went out of the north city gate, along the official road, stirring up a cloud of dust, and headed towards the Qiubei Plain.
Shi Jiuzhai had been waiting at the tea stall outside the city since early in the morning, performing the art of disguise to change his appearance and figure. He watched the four directions of dust disappearing from his sight, but did not immediately chase after them, and continued to wait.
He knew very well why Li Weiyi asked him to wait outside the north city gate.
really.
A moment later, three groups of people came out of the city gate and chased after the four people.
Each group of people concealed their aura very well, but Shi Jiuzhai had such a keen eye and experience that he recognized half of them just by looking at their eyes and body shapes.
"Why did the news leak out so quickly? Interesting!"
Shi Jiuzhai took out two silver coins, placed them on the table, then disappeared from the spot and burrowed into the ground.
The mounts of Li Weiyi and his four companions were the Blood-Patterned Tiger Camels, which were four meters long and had amazing speed. However, their endurance was insufficient. After running for more than a hundred miles, the four mounts began to sweat profusely, had difficulty breathing, and slowed down.
The Zuo brothers who traveled with Li Weiyi and Zuoqiu Qingying were two old men who had practiced for nearly a hundred years and had extremely rich experience in dealing with danger.
They were born as rice people, made many achievements, and after reaching the Daozhong realm, they were given the surname "Zuo".
Their names are Zuo Sheng and Zuo Shi respectively.
Although he is over a hundred years old, he looks like he is only in his fifties or sixties. He is vigorous, has strong muscles and sharp eyes.
Li Weiyi pulled the reins suddenly and looked back: "Someone is following us, and not just one way."
"How could this happen?" Zuoqiu Qingying looked unhappy. This was beyond her expectations.
Li Weiyi said: "It should be because of the seven strange insects on my body."
"But, you used the Disguise Technique, so it's impossible for anyone to know our itinerary." Zuoqiu Qingying looked at the Zuo brothers.
Li Weiyi said, "It has nothing to do with the two elders! Taoli Mountain is being watched by countless eyes. There must be spies planted by other forces inside Zuoqiumen. Every time I go down the mountain, I can't hide it from some people."
Zuo Sheng and Zuo Shi hurriedly bowed to Li Weiyi, their eyes full of gratitude.
But they didn't know that what Li Weiyi said was completely different from what he thought in his heart.
Of course, it is impossible that all rice people are followers of the Twin Rice Cult.
However, the two experienced members of the Secret Realm Division did not notice the enemy behind them at the first time, which was really suspicious.
Zuoqiu Qingying asked: "What should we do now?"
"Give up your mount and take a detour." Li Weiyi said.
The four men jumped off the blood-patterned tiger camels and whipped them. The four beasts howled and ran forward wildly.
Li Weiyi led the three of them, using his body skills to take a detour to the town of Qingyi. On the way, he had a good chat with the Zuo brothers, talking about many things related to the rice man, and secretly observing their expressions.
Although the Jiuli Hidden Sect did not dare to explore the Qingyi Town, they had already figured out its location.
As we got closer to the town of Tsing Yi, the sky gradually darkened.
"Those pursuers must be looking for us everywhere. Traveling at night will make us too obvious. There is a market town ahead. Why don't we stay there for a night to avoid them?"
Li Weiyi pointed forward.
In the twilight, smoke rose from the town of Tsing Yi, and the smell of firewood and the aroma of meat and vegetables wafted through the air.
Zuo Sheng frowned slightly, wondering in his heart, thinking that everything was too coincidental, how did he end up here by accident? The two of them had originally planned to kill Zuo Qiu Qingying and capture Li Weiyi after they were far away from Qiuzhou City. Now, they had to move their plans forward.
Maybe God is helping them.
