Chapter 137 Inquiry



"Since the Master Seal Master is unwilling to make this trip, I will go there myself the next day to offer the sacrifice!"

When he said this, Master Zhang did not seem embarrassed at all.

Zhao Ji just watched Master Zhang perform quietly with a faint smile on his face.

Master Zhang originally thought that Zhao Ji would leave after hearing this, but now it seems that Zhao Ji has no such intention at all. For a moment, Master Zhang's eyes narrowed slightly.

"If Master Seal has anything else to do, you can leave first."

To other people, this sentence was undoubtedly an order to expel them, but to Zhao Ji, he pretended not to understand it.

Master Zhang had not expected that Zhao Ji would stay here so shamelessly. At this moment, the smile on his face finally disappeared.

"Since Master Seal wants to stay here so much, then please rest here for a while. I have other things to do, so I will not accompany you for now."

After all, Master Zhang never defeated Zhao Ji.

Zhao Ji, on the other hand, seemed to have come to his own bedroom, wandering around here and there, waving to Master Zhang and saying, "If you have something to do, go ahead and do it first. If not, just leave it to me."

"I came to see Master Zhang. Is there anything you're missing? If so, it's because our arrangements were not thoughtful enough. I'll help you get it all."

"This can be regarded as living up to the emperor's instructions to me."

Zhang Zhenren really couldn't get rid of Zhao Ji, a dog-skin plaster, so he simply left in anger, and only told the little boy who met Zhao Ji at the beginning: "Follow the Master Seal and don't neglect him."

There was clear doubt in the little boy's eyes, but since his master had instructed him so, he could only follow Zhao Ji according to his own understanding.

Master Zhang did have other things to do, so he turned and went into the alchemy room next door.

If it is to be presented to the emperor, this box of pills is definitely not enough. Just now, Master Zhang was just testing Zhao Ji.

What was actually intended to be presented to the Emperor were the Twelve Taoist Pills. There were only eight pills in the black box just now.

What Master Zhang has to do now is to refine the remaining four pills as quickly as possible so that the emperor can take them.

After Master Zhang left, Zhao Ji walked around in the room. Wherever he went, there was a little boy waiting beside him.

"Although your master told you to take good care of me, as an adult much older than you, I can take care of myself very well and I don't need you to take care of me."

Zhao Ji squatted down, touched the little boy's hair, and said kindly.

The reason why this little boy was accepted as Master Zhang's disciple was because he was persistent and obedient enough.

"Since Master asked me to take good care of you, I will definitely follow you and see if you need anything. It's okay. If you feel uncomfortable, you can just pretend I don't exist."

Zhao Ji didn't expect the boy to be so stubborn, so he said, "Look outside, there seems to be someone else visiting!"

The little boy leaned his head to look out the door, and at that moment he felt a pain in his neck, his eyes went dark, and he fainted completely.

Zhao Ji sighed and rubbed his wrist: "I don't want to do anything to a child, but this child is too stubborn, so I can only offend him more!"

Zhao Ji picked up the little boy with one hand and placed him on the bed in the side hall.

After settling the little boy down, Zhao Ji then carefully searched the palace.

It turned out that Master Zhang had not lived in this palace for a long time, so many places were not decorated.

But Zhao Ji's sixth sense told him that there was something strange and wrong with this palace.

Having searched almost all the visible places without finding anything, Zhao Ji had no choice but to turn his attention to the Three Pure Ones enshrined on the table.

Although Zhao Ji did not have any beliefs, he still felt a little strange looking at the statue.

The statue looked as if it was coming alive, and its gaze seemed to be following Zhao Ji.

Zhao Ji suppressed the uncomfortable feeling in his heart. He pressed the statue directly. The statue seemed to be fixed. Then Zhao Ji turned the statue again.

Unexpectedly, I made a discovery: this statue can actually rotate to the left.

As the statue turned, a secret door gradually emerged under the table.

The door is not big, about the size of a book.

Zhao Ji stretched out his hand and pressed the secret door, but he didn't expect the secret door to pop open directly.

The space behind the secret door was not big, and strangely, there was nothing precious in it, just a porcelain bottle.

Zhao Ji reached out and took out the porcelain bottle, placed it in front of him and looked at it. There was nothing inside, and the porcelain bottle looked very ordinary.

It looks like a vase that ordinary people put on the windowsill.

"Such an ordinary bottle is placed here..." Zhao Ji put the bottle back and restored the statue to its original state.

For a moment, Zhao Ji couldn't understand why this thing was placed in such a hidden place?

He vaguely heard footsteps nearby, so he decided not to alert the enemy.

When the little boy woke up from sleep, the moon was already high in the night sky.

He stretched out his chubby hands and rubbed his head, feeling a little pain in his head and neck.

Then he suddenly remembered what his master had told him to do, and hurriedly got out of bed and went to the palace.

However, there was no sign of Zhao Ji in any of the palaces, and he was still in the alchemy room and had not come out.

"Has that gentleman already left? Then I shouldn't have to follow him so closely!"

The little boy rubbed his little head, went to get himself a glass of water, and seeing that the moon was already high in the sky, he went to bed to rest.

After Zhao Ji left the Taoist temple, he immediately ordered his men to find out about Master Zhang's past.

The arrival of this person was very strange. Although the emperor believed it now, Zhao Ji had to be more cautious.

Now the emperor is Zhao Ji's strongest backing, so Zhao Ji will never allow anything unexpected to happen to the emperor.

After taking the elixir presented by Master Zhang, the emperor clearly felt that his spirit and energy had improved a lot.

Once the man's spirits recovered, he immediately wanted to do things he usually wanted to do.

Especially since the emperor has been a vegetarian for a long time due to his illness.

"Suxi, go get the harem cards. I want to flip the cards tonight!"

The emperor said with great energy.

But the chief eunuch Su Xi was indeed very worried: "Your Majesty, the imperial physician asked you to rest during this period of time..."
