Bureau of Anomalous Biological Countermeasures Chapter 8: Smoke
The alchemist bowed and said, "I saw that man on the pier, and he went ashore with several alchemists. When he got off the boat, this man was still wearing alchemy clothes. Although there is no record of this person in the palace, but The minister dares to guarantee that this person is an alchemist. And..."
When he said this, Fang Shi paused. After sneaking a glance at the middle-aged woman's expression, the man continued: "And this alchemist is also full of white hair, the same as Wu Mianyi..."
When the alchemist said this, the middle-aged woman's face became a little excited. She stood up from the cushion at once, stared straight at the alchemist in front of her and said, "You think this person is also an immortal immortal?"
The alchemist lowered his body and said: "The minister has no evidence, but someone has already gone to check the details of this person on behalf of the minister. There will be news soon, whether this person is the same as Wu Mian. Those who are immortal will naturally find out at that time.”
After the middle-aged woman nodded, she said to the alchemist: "This matter must be done as soon as possible, I don't want to wait a few decades before you are about to die before you have the whereabouts of the elixir of life. Remember your agreement with Ben Gong, you don't have much time left - let's go..."
After hesitating for a moment, the alchemist saluted the middle-aged woman. Finally got up and left, and saw that after the man walked three or four steps, his body suddenly disappeared out of thin air. And this middle-aged woman obviously had seen the alchemist's methods more than once. After watching the man leave with a blank expression, the woman got up and walked to a bronze mirror. After carefully looking at herself in the bronze mirror, and seeing a few imperceptible wrinkles in her eyes, the woman sighed softly and said to herself, "It's time to live forever, not old..."
After she finished speaking, the woman sighed slightly, and buckled the bronze mirror on the table. Almost at the same time as she buckled the bronze mirror, the voice of the servant came from outside the bedroom: "Da Sima, An Han Lord Gongwang Mang has been called to visit the Empress Dowager..."
The middle-aged woman calmly sat back on her cushion, and then said to the servant outside the palace gate, "Please come in, please..."
While Wang Mang entered the palace to meet the Empress Dowager, assassins suddenly appeared in his Grand Sima Mansion. These assassins did not expect that Hou Wang Mang was not in his mansion at this time. After rushing into Wang Mang's study, he saw only a white-haired man sitting there. At the moment, these assassins couldn't find Wang Mang and went to the white-haired man. After all, if this person can appear in Da Sima's study, he must be Wang Mang's relatives and friends.
However, after making a move, these assassins discovered that the white-haired man in the study turned out to be a monk. After the spell was deployed, dozens of assassins lost more than half of their casualties in an instant. In the end, with the assistance of the guards in the house, the remaining assassins were captured and locked in the private prison of the Da Sima's house. Waiting for Wang Mang to return from the palace and let go.
At the same time that the assassin was captured, in a vacant room next to the Da Sima Mansion. A person appeared here out of thin air. Just after the person stood still, a man's voice came from the corner of the room: "How is it? That person didn't notice it?"
"I probably didn't notice it, the dead soldiers didn't expose it." The person who came to the corner owed a bow to the person in the corner, and finally, the person continued: "The magic weapon hurt the person's little finger. , the blood stopped instantly. Judging from this, there is no doubt that the physique is immortal."
After listening to the person who came, the person in the corner came out. This man is wearing a cloak, but he can still clearly see the alchemist's costume inside the cloak. After appearing, the alchemist stared at the person who came and said word by word, "Are you sure his wound will heal instantly?"
The visitor nodded affirmatively and said, "I saw it with my own eyes. Although the white-haired man is highly skilled, the neighbors have too little experience, and the magic weapon is mixed with the hidden weapons of the dead. It went out. That person didn't expect that his little finger was injured, but the magic weapon is cleverly made, so he shouldn't be able to see it."
After hesitating for a while, the alchemist continued: "That's not wrong. Last time you said that you found the whereabouts of Liu Xi and Sun Xiaochuan. How is the investigation?"
After listening to the alchemist's words, the person's expression became a little nervous. After hesitating for a while, he said: "The two white hairs are slippery than loach. My people just said a few words, and Liu Xi found them. The two of them escaped from Shacheng that night, and my people were there. They have searched for hundreds of miles. They must have dyed their hair and found a place to hide."
After being silent for a moment, the alchemist looked at the man and said, "If you can't find it in a hundred miles, look for it in a thousand miles. It must be pulled out of their mouths. How did the white hair turn into white hair. Don't worry about the hair, just focus on finding the whereabouts of Liu Xi and the two. I'll give you a one-month deadline, if I can't find them, I'll find you..."
When the alchemist said the last few words, the person's face became ugly. However, his technique differed too much from alchemists, and he didn't dare to resist at the moment. After giving the salute, he turned around and left here using the Five Elements escape method. After watching this person leave, the alchemist walked to the front door and looked at the situation in the Da Sima mansion opposite from the crack of the door. While watching, he said with words in his mouth: "Sun Xiaochuan and Liu Xi now have another Guangzhi, and you have given me more and more surprises. Who will be the next white-haired person..."
Yan Jie was on his way back to his private house when there was a riot of assassins in Da Sima's mansion. When he got the news and rushed back to the mansion, the assassins who had carried out the assassination had already been captured by the guards. At this time, Yan Jie did not dare to be careless and ran to the gate of the palace in person. He escorted Wang Mang back to his mansion, but when he heard that he was not at home, there was an assassin. Wang Mang was a little surprised, but after a while, he ordered his guards to return to the mansion first. The assassin was sent to Tingwei's mansion, and let Lord Tingwei go to trial.
In the middle of the night, before the trial of Lord Tingwei, these assassins suddenly died in prison. At the moment, Tingwei was dismissed by Emperor Ping due to his unfavorable performance. The newly appointed Tingwei was Wang Mang's close friend, but he had nothing to do with this matter, and in the end the matter was left alone.
However, Wang Mang wouldn't let Guangzhi go without saying anything. Without this foreigner, the family in his mansion didn't know what kind of bad luck he would have. At the moment, Guangzhi stayed in the Grand Sima's mansion, and through the mouth of the Grand Sima, he learned some current affairs changes in recent years.
After learning about the assassination in Da Sima's mansion, the old guy Bai Wuqiu came to take a look. With Yan Jie's relationship, the old guy was taken to the study room where the accident happened. After learning about what happened at that time with Guangzhi, Guibugui looked at the weapons and hidden weapons that the assassin left here.
After reading it, Gui Bugui found a double-edged flying knife from the hidden weapon pile. After comparing it with other hidden weapons, the old guy suddenly laughed. Then he said to Guangzhi, who was with him: "When I heard that there was an assassination, you were slightly injured, right?"
Guangzhi's face was a little red. With his identity as a great alchemist, it was a very shameful thing to be injured in such a situation. However, Guangzhi thought he was covering it up very well. Even the guards in the Grand Sima Mansion didn't see it. How did this old guy know about it?
From Guangzhi's eyes, I guessed what the white-haired man was thinking. Immediately he smiled, pointed at the double-edged flying knife in his hand and said, "These assassins really take care of you, and they specially equipped you with this magic weapon. You have been away from the land for hundreds of years, and you have no knowledge about this..."
While speaking, the old guy casually threw the flying knife in his hand at Guangzhi's chest. The first apprentice of the Great Master Erdao involuntarily stretched out his hand to block, and almost as soon as he stretched out his hand, he saw the flying knife that had already been flying in mid-air suddenly disappear. Just when Guangzhi was in a daze, the palm he lifted to his chest suddenly hurt, and then warm blood flowed down...
