Nightwatcher Chapter 160: “Nine States of Beasts”
"After King Huai died, I took the soul pill, took it back to the capital, and gave it to your majesty..." Que Yongxiu's soul answered honestly.
No wonder Yang Yan said that when the blood was sacrificed to the people, the essence and blood floated up and turned into a blood pill, and the soul went underground, but there was no trace afterwards. It turned out to be stolen by Que Yongxiu by the chaos.........
Xu Qi'an suddenly realized that he thought that the soul pill had been taken away by the Dao Sect leader, but he did not expect to enter the Yuanjing Emperor's pocket.
"In that case, the Dizong Dao first participated in this incident for the so-called "evil". Well, the Zhenbei King and the Di Zong Dao head have a certain degree of cooperation. I don’t know if Yuan Jing will also cooperate with the Di Zong Dao head. Frowning?
"This is not good. If this is the case, then I have to pay attention to my identity. At the time of 1v5, the Daoist Master of the Dao Zong noticed that I had the aura of earth book fragments.
"He knows that the mysterious master in Chuzhou is the owner of the fragments of the earth book, so when guarding the nine-color golden lotus, I will erase all traces of "Xu Qi'an".
"Xu Qi'an is in Chuzhou, and a mysterious master appeared in Chuzhou, and there is an atmosphere of earth book fragments. This doesn't mean much. But what if Xu Qi'an is also the owner of earth book fragments? This is too tricky."
Thinking of this, Xu Qi'an asked again: "Is there any secret collusion between Emperor Yuanjing and the head of the Daoist priest?"
Que Yongxiu replied: "I don't know..."
"What did Emperor Yuanjing do to refine the soul pill?"
"I don't know..."
I don’t know, then I don’t know, what use do you want? Xu Qi'an was a little angry, pondered for a long time, and asked very solemnly:
"Do you have any unknown properties or silver?"
Qu Yongxiu honestly explained: "No."
Although Huguo Gongfu is in the capital, Que Yongxiu has been operating in Chuzhou for many years. Even if he has private money, it is in Chuzhou.
唔, the guardian government must be ransacked. Otherwise, I can’t give you an explanation. Unfortunately, I’m not a gangster anymore, and I can’t participate in the ransacking activities, otherwise I will get rich........ .. Xu Qi'an felt a pain in his mouth.
"Cao Guogong, what do you have unknown industry?" Xu Qi'an looked at Cao Guogong again.
"I have thirteen private houses in the capital, raising foreign affairs and luan children. Three of them are idle, and one of the three idles is used by me to store some treasures, antiques, calligraphy and painting, and silver ware."
Treasures and antiques are not stored at home, but are stored outside. These things are not visible, right... What a hateful corrupt official... Xu Qi'an was surprised. , Criticize aside.
"Where are the land and house deeds of those private houses?" Xu Qi'an asked again.
"The land deed and deed of the house where I used to store the antique treasures are in the house, and the rest are in the mansion." Cao Guogong replied.
Damn, the twelve private houses are away from me.........Xu Qi'an's heart sank, and unspeakable sadness surged.
At the same time, he became more and more curious about the private house used to collect treasures and antiques. The house deed and land deed were kept in the private house instead of in the Guogong Mansion. This meant that Cao Guogong completely separated the private house from himself and the Guogong Mansion.
No matter which side has a problem, it will not bring the two parties into contact.
After the questioning, in order to keep some expectations, he did not ask what treasures are in the private house of Cao Guogong.
took the two souls back into the sachet, Xu Qi'an walked out of the secret room and went to visit the three companions of the Tiandihui, they belonged to different rooms.
Xu Qi'an came to Li Miaozhen's room first and knocked on the door.
squeak...The door opened, revealing a face full of beauty. It was Xu Qi'an's wife of a paper man.
"Pop!"
She closed the door immediately.
After a few more minutes, the door reopened. Li Miaozhen sat neatly at the table, and Chu Caiwei was packing ointments, gauze, medicine pots and other items.
Is the dressing changed just now... Xu Qi'an calmly took a glance at Li Miaozhen, and asked with concern: "It's nothing serious, right."
Waiting for Li Miaozhen to nod, he said: "Emperor Yuanjing has committed a crime against himself, and promised not to embarrass you, so you don't have to leave Beijing too early."
In fact, even if he does not forgive you, you are not ashamed. The Taoist head of Tianzong is at the same level as Jianzheng.
Give Emperor Yuan Jing ten courage, and he dare not really kill you.
It's good to have "Dad" backing up.........Xu Qi'an sighed with emotion.
It’s no wonder that when he used to read novels, those villains with backers always liked to jump up and down, arrogant and arrogant, if it weren’t for the bad luck to run into the protagonist, most people were really helpless.
"Anything else?" Li Miaozhen frowned and asked.
Why are you trying to drive me away? Have I influenced you three oranges? Xu Qi'an complained inwardly and smiled:
"Soul pill, I want to know what is the use of soul pill."
Li Miaozhen heard the words and looked at him with a puzzled expression, as if saying: Didn’t Dao Jin Lian tell you?
Xu Qi'an lowered his voice, "I channeled Que Yongxiu's soul just now, and learned from him that it is not the Dao Sect leader who needs soul pill, but Emperor Yuan Jing."
Li Miaozhen's pupils seem to shrink.
Xu Qi'an continued: "According to Taoist Jinlian, the soul pill does not seem to be enough for him to do such a frenzied thing, but it is true, so I guess there may be other soul pill. Known uses."
Li Miaozhen pondered for a long time, then slowly shook his head.
At this time, Chu Caiwei curiously asked: "Is it the kind of soul pill made from soul?"
Xu Qi'an turned to look at her, with a questioning look and tone, and asked: "You know?"
This is not like Chu Caiwei. The big-eyed cute girl is not like a studious who reads books in other fields besides medical skills.
Chu Caiwei said: "When Brother Song was doing research a few days ago, he said that the soul pill might be able to blend the body and soul he refined, but it was just a guess. After all, the soul pill is too cherished and the refining conditions are harsh.
"He can't kill people to make alchemy. Teacher Jianzheng will be the first to kill him. Well, I heard Brother Song say that there is a record of soul alchemy in the library on the eighth floor of the Guanxing Building."
Xu Qi'an and Li Miaozhen said immediately: "Take us."
"This..."
Chu Caiwei looked embarrassed: "Zangshu Pavilion is a forbidden place for Sitian prison. Only disciples in the gate can enter, and you must first obtain the consent of Teacher Jianzheng or Brother Yang. I cannot take you in, otherwise you will be punished. ."
Li Miaozhen suddenly became a little discouraged.
Xu Qi'an stepped forward and patted Cai Wei’s fragrant shoulder: "Whatever you want to eat these days, just tell your brother to satisfy you."
Chu Caiwei opened her eyes and smiled: "I will take you there."
Li Miaozhen is stunned: "Aren't you afraid of being punished?"
"Oh, it's all trivial."
"........"
The three of them entered the library, but Chu Caiwei couldn't remember the name of the book that recorded the soul pill and where it was placed.
Rows of bookshelves are filled with a huge space, and trying to find relevant records from them is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
"I, I'll ask Brother Song..." Chu Caiwei spit out her tongue and jumped away.
Li Miaozhen and Xu Qi'an searched aimlessly with dark faces.
Suddenly, Xu Qi'an was attracted by an ancient book: "Nine States of Beasts: Volume 1".
It is recorded in the book that alien beasts are descendants of ancient gods and devils. According to the different types of ancient demon gods, they can spy one or two according to later generations of alien beasts.
has the largest number and the most proliferation is "Jiao". The book mentions that Jiao’s distant ancestor is a kind of **** and demon called "Dragon".
Another example is the strange beast that appeared in the legend of Yunzhou. It came from overseas. It breathed thunderstorms and torrential rain. The distant ancestors may be the gods and monsters called "Kirin".
Xu Qi'an scrolled through each article, and was surprised to find an "old friend", Linglong.
What is the distant ancestor of Linglong is unproven. It was first recorded in history during the time of the ancient emperor. It was a mount used by the emperor to fight all over the world.
ride the wind and waves, is one of the kings of the water.
"That's not right, the posture of the licking dog dragon is not like a water king..." Xu Qi'an complained inwardly.
With doubts, he continued to look down, and he saw some different messages.
Huaiqing told him that the spirit dragon likes to eat purple gas, so he chases the royal family and becomes the companion spirit beast of the royal family. For the royal family, it is also a symbol of human orthodoxy.
But the book says that Linglong still has another ability, that is, to breathe dynasty aura, making the kingdom of the dynasty longer.
All things will decline when they are prosperous. It is the will of heaven. When the aura of a dynasty is like burning oil, it will usher in weakness. The spirit dragon can swallow and breathe out the air, and if the air is too strong, it will be swallowed. Weak, then spit out.
allows the dynasty to always have a gentle degree.
Qiyun balancer? !
The word flashed through Xu Qi'an's mind.
This, when I first crossed over, I suspected that the dynasty of this world did not conform to the "three-hundred-year law" that I had developed in the literature.
At the time, I thought it was a factor of the existence of extraordinary power, but now it seems that it is the existence of the spirit dragon?
was thinking, Chu Caiwei bounced back, and said crisply: "That book is called "Qidanlu", in the second position, the third shelf, the second frame, I will help you fetch it."
Xu Qi'an converged her thoughts, followed behind Chu Caiwei, watching her pull out a book from the third shelf and the second frame of the second position: "Qi Dan Lu".
The result was disappointing. The role of the soul pill was basically summarized by Taoist Golden Lotus, and there was no omission.
As an old Daoist master, it is indeed impossible to miss the effect of the soul pill. That is to say, either the soul pill is just a cover, or one of the functions of the soul pill is very important, but we did not realize it. .......... Xu Qi'an thought to himself.
He decided that he had the opportunity to find Luo Yuheng for advice and advice, at least to tell Luo Yuheng about this, and let her stare at Emperor Yuan Jing.
Of course, before that, he has to ask Dao Chief Jin Lian first.
"The kind-hearted aunt is not familiar with me. Whether she can believe it or not, Daoist Jin Lian will have to check..." Xu Qianxin said.
Well, tomorrow I will go to Cao Guogong’s private house first, and the day after tomorrow, I will go to Yunlu Academy to pick up my second uncle and aunt, and then contact Daoist Jin Lian to ask if I can believe it.
Also, the wife, the princess, has to take it back, and can’t keep her outside forever. Tsk, there’s so much trouble...
............
夜.
The moon blooms like frost, and the lake surface is coated with a shallow, soft radiance.
Linglong is lying on the shore, looking listless, sometimes slaps its nose, sometimes **** its tail, stirs up the waves, and stirs the waves.
A figure came from the darkness and stopped in front of the spirit dragon.
He leaned over, touched Linglong’s hard mane, and sighed: “The case of King Huai’s massacre was finally made public. I couldn’t change the ending or save the royal family’s face.”
Linglong rattled his nose lazily, as a response to that person.
He continued: "The imperial family has no face, which means losing the heart, and losing the heart, it means that the air is lost. I really want to disperse the air, but this is beyond the limit of what I can bear.
"I, like you, are trying to maintain a balance, no more, no less. But the people outside are too ignorant, and Wei Yuan is even less sensible, and has repeatedly rebelled against me."
He stopped stroking and pressed his palms on Linglong's eyebrows, his voice was gentle and indifferent: "Return part of the luck that I have stored in you."
Linglong’s **** button-like eyes, hatred and resistance flashed, but after all, he didn’t do anything, let him grab luck.
.............
The next day, early morning.
Zaza...
In the sound of the stone gate slowly opening, Xu Qi'an yelled towards the dark underground, "Sister Zhong, I'll pick you up."
After a while, wrapped in a long robe and covered with bells, he slowly climbed the stone steps.
She raised her head, and between her messy hair, those watery eyes were beating with joy.
It has been a month and a half since Xu Qi'an went north.
"You have improved your cultivation again." Zhong Li whispered.
"But you are still the same." Xu Qi'an put his palm on her head.
Zhong Li pats open.
he pressed it up again.
Zhong Li patted again.
"Then you go back." Xu Qi'an said angrily.
Zhong Li was softened and let the man who called his senior sister touch her head.
He took Zhong Li and Li Miaozhen, the wife of the paper man, and Chu Yuanzhen, and the two groups of people stepped on the flying sword and rushed from the Eight Diagrams Terrace to the Yunlu Academy.
"Why do you want to blend in?" Xu Qi'an angrily transmitted Chu Yuanzhen.
"Four people have a sword, how crowded, can I take you a ride?"
Chu Yuanzheng explained innocently, is this person without conscience? He has not healed from his injuries, so he acts as a "car driver" and takes him to Yunlu Academy.
He didn't want to thank, but instead blamed himself.
aware of Chu Yuanzhen’s displeasure, Xu Qi'an sighed, and he could not express his wretched thoughts too naked, helplessly said:
"I just want to recall the feeling of squeezing the subway, I really miss it."
"What is the younger brother?"
"You don't need to know this........."
...........
Gentlemen of Yunlu Academy, these two days have been very unhappy, even impetuous.
Because there is always a couple who don’t know how to promote, catch them and say: teach your children.
teach your mother! ! !
Gentlemen roared exactly in their hearts.
The child knows that the little girls of the Xu family, Xu Ningyan and Xu Cijiu’s Yaomei, are very angry.
I didn't expect that she would come to the college again.
There are more than a dozen gentlemen who have learned the rich and five-cars, teaching the art of war, classics and so on. It stands to reason that to teach a child to enlighten, isn't it easy to come by?
But some people are always gifted and they think differently from ordinary people. The one that applies to ordinary people is not suitable for them.
Xu Lingyin is the kind of child with extraordinary talent.
, taking advantage of the imperial wind, the green hills underneath are like daisies, and the official roads are endless. In just two quarters of an hour, Xu Qian came to Qingyun Mountain.
He glanced down, and saw a child lying in the withered grass beside the pavilion near the college, with a bun like a meat bun~ IndoMTL.com~ I saw Xu Lingyin, go down. "
Chu Yuanzheng lowered his flying sword and landed beside the pavilion.
Xu Lingyin lay on the ground, asleep, covered in broken leaves and grass clippings.
Xu Qi'an went up and woke her up, and said angrily: "If you lie here and sleep again, I will call your mother to hit you."
"It's a big pot..."
Xu Lingyin bravely maintained a slanted posture, ignoring the threat from her elder brother.
"Master and I came out to eat game, and the master disappeared. When I was tired, I would sleep for a while." Xu Lingyin explained clearly.
Then, he raised his brows and added: "I'm not afraid of my mother hitting me."
Xu Qi'an sneered and said: "You are not afraid of your mother playing, are you not afraid of your father using bamboo sticks to smoke you?"
Xu Lingyin's eyes widened, his hands protected his little butt, and he was shocked and said: "Cauldron, my Tuer seems to be hurting."
"What is Tuer?" Xu Qi'an picked her up like a chicken and walked to the top of the mountain.
"Tu'er is the butt, my new word." Xiaodouding finally found the opportunity to educate his elder brother, "Do you know that."
"That's the hip."
"Tuer."
"Hip!!"
"Picture." Xiaodouding read it again. Is there any problem?
.........
PS: Today’s state is very bad. I can’t write anything when I sit down. It’s not that I have nothing to write. The plot is still a lot. It's that my own mind is confused and I can't write quickly. Sorry.
After 12 o'clock in the next chapter, if it hasn’t been updated, leave it to tomorrow.
