At Baiweiju in Kyoto, Xiang Jinghao drank tea leisurely, occasionally looking towards the Weiming Lake to the east.
The weather is getting warmer, and many flowers are blooming by Weiming Lake. Many people are going out of their homes to visit Weiming Lake.
Weiming Lake has always been popular. The spring breeze blows gently, and there is more tenderness and affection between boys and girls.
Xiang Jinghao read two letters, one from the south and the other from the north.
"Zhao Jie is such a loser. He can't handle such a small thing." Xiang Jinghao had a cold look on his brows, "If we capture that woman, why don't I let Yu Zhi kneel down and beg me?"
No one would have thought that Zhao Jie, the son of Zhao Kai, the Minister of Punishment, was actually Xiang Jinghao's son, and Xiang Jinghao had instructed Zhao Jie to go north.
After learning about the relationship between Li Wantong and Yu Zhi, Xiang Jinghao asked Zhao Jie to find an opportunity to catch Li Wantong.
It's a pity that Zhao Jie was helpless as Xiao Jingyao and others were accompanying him along the way.
Until Zhao Jie met Wang Xiao, he began to take advantage of Wang Xiao. If you can't deal with Yu Zhi, you just need to find Yu Zhi's weakness.
Xiang Jinghao threw the letter from the north into the water-heating stove. This is not good news, and Xiang Jinghao doesn't like it either.
Then Xiang Jinghao looked at another letter, the anger between his brows disappeared, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
In the past month, many things have happened in the world. Apart from the appearance of Night Ghost, the opportunity under Gutian Tower is the biggest thing.
King Xiang Ji of Chu and the heads of many aristocratic families in Nanzhou Prefecture had no news after entering Gutian Tower. The opportunity in Gutian Tower can only be obtained by one person, and the chance to enter the tenth-grade master realm is enough to attract all the ninth-grade great practitioners.
The tower guardian opened the Gutian Tower very suddenly, so only the Nanzhou Prefecture family and Chu King Xiang Ji, who had been stationed in Nanzhou Prefecture all year round, entered the Gutian Tower.
After no news for nearly a month, people began to walk out of Gutian Tower. Although he was a little embarrassed, there were no injuries on his body. The strange thing is that no one remembers anything that happened in Gutian Tower.
Until Xiang Ji was the only one left in Gutian Tower...
Everyone knows that the opportunity in Gutian Tower this time belongs to Xiang Ji.
This letter is about this.
And Xiang Jinghao knew that if Xiang Ji stepped into the realm of tenth grade grandmaster, the power of their Chu Palace in the world would increase day by day.
Xiang Jinghao raised his tea cup and threw the good news into the stove. The steaming flames were just like the joy in Xiang Jinghao's heart.
Xiang Jinghao doesn't like drinking tea. After staying in the army for a long time, strong alcohol makes him feel a little bit tasteful. He often comes to Baiweiju just because his mother-in-law is Weiminghu who likes spring.
After about a cup of tea, the door was pushed open. Jiang Xiyue walked in.
"Mom, you're here." Xiang Jinghao knew that he was not Jiang Xiyue's biological child, but since he was a child, his mother had treated him as her own and was excellent in every aspect.
Jiang Xiyue was as calm as ever, and only showed a little joy when she saw Xiang Jinghao.
"Hao'er, among the daughters in Kyoto, which one do you like?"
...
In the small courtyard to the east of Qiu Mansion, Qiu Ruoruo was lively and cute in a light yellow dress.
"Grandpa, do you have any news about Brother Xiaoyu? Just tell me. After this guy left, he never sent a letter. He has long forgotten about me."
The strong autumn wind was lying on the lounge chair, enjoying the spring sunshine. Occasionally, the spring breeze blew and messed up the gray beard.
It's a pity that Qiu Ruoruo's white beard, which should have been free and undisciplined, was tightly held in his hand.
"Grandpa, are you going to tell me or not?" Qiu Ruoruo pretended to pull Qiu Jinfeng's beard.
Qiu Jinfeng opened his sleepy eyes and said, "My dear granddaughter, I know that little baby has a wife and has forgotten your sister. Why are you still thinking about him so much?"
Qiu Ruoruo snorted coldly, "I knew it."
In anger, Qiu Ruoruo pulled Qiu Jinfeng's beard, causing the other party to scream in pain.
Qiu Ruoruo is the only one in the world who can pull Qiu Jinfeng's beard like this.
Qiu Jinfeng sighed helplessly, why did his well-educated granddaughter become so unruly? Alas, it’s all Yu Zhi’s fault.
Seeing that Qiu Ruoruo still refused to let go, Qiu Jinfeng continued: "Yu Zhi and the others have encountered many things, which are a bit complicated to say."
Everything that happened in Beiliang Mansion reached Qiu Jinfeng's ears, but everything was beyond Qiu Jinfeng's expectation. Qiu Jinfeng knew that Yu Zhi was being guarded by Grandmaster Li Haomiao, so he wanted to use Yu Zhi's hand to frighten the northern sects.
But accidents happened frequently, and everything went beyond Qiu Jinfeng's expectations.
Qiu Ruoruo said worriedly: "Is Brother Xiaoyu in danger?"
Qiu Jinfeng glanced at Qiu Ruoruo and said, "Silly boy, Yu Zhi has been surrounded by dangers since he was born."
Qiu Ruoruo was puzzled, but she suddenly remembered that Yu Zhi had always told her that someone wanted to kill him.
"Grandpa, I want Liuying."
Qiu Jin's gloomy eyes became inexplicably energetic.
Liuying, the intelligence agency of the Qiu family, collects intelligence from all over the world. After decades of development, Qiu Family Liuying has developed into an extremely large force. There are Liuying's strongholds everywhere in the Great Chu Dynasty. It can be said that nothing in the world can escape Liuying's monitoring.
At first, when Yu Zhi wanted to find his mother, he asked Qiu Ruoruo to help.
Liuying has always been controlled by Qiu Jinfeng, and Qiu Ruoruo only knows part of it.
Now, Qiu Ruoruo obviously wants to control the entire Liuying.
Qiu Jinfeng said earnestly: "Ruoruo, once you take over some things, it's not so easy to get rid of them."
Qiu Ruoruo looked firm, thinking of the thinly dressed young man, and felt both sympathy and pity in her heart.
"I want Liuying."
.......
In the red leaf forest of Cangshan Mountain, the spring sunshine is difficult to penetrate into the gloomy little courtyard. Countless runes are hung around the courtyard. Various mysterious runes are painted with cinnabar on the walls of the courtyard. They have been modified and modified, and you can tell at a glance. This is the final decision made by the Rune Master after several thoughts.
It's just that these densely packed vermilion runes look like ghostly symbols or ghost faces in the dim light.
Except for the vast forests of red leaves, there are no living creatures here. Even snakes, insects, rats, and ants stay away.
Yu Zhi looked around nervously, and after seeing the vermilion runes all over the wall and the talisman flying in the courtyard, he murmured in his heart, could this place really be haunted?
After learning that Yu Zhi could see the flowing energy, Cang Huo changed his attitude.
What a lesson? This is my grandson-in-law, how can I teach him a lesson?
Cang Huo asked again: "Can your eyes really see the flow of Qi?"
The fifty-first time...Yu Zhi muttered in his heart. "The technique I practice is rather special."
Cang Huo couldn't figure out how he could see the true energy.
Practitioners can only feel the flow of their own true energy, but this is the first time Cang Huo has heard of seeing true energy.
"What does the true energy look like?" Cang Huo asked again.
Yu Zhi thought for a while, but it was not difficult to describe, "Simply put, this is a flow of air that circulates back and forth in your meridians. In my eyes, this flow of air, which should have been invisible, turned white."
Cang Huo was thoughtful, while Yu Zhi was thinking in his mind that Cang Huo changed his normal behavior and brought him here.
Jiang Yi said that Cang Huo wanted to find a disciple to help him.
But Yu Zhi knew nothing about the talisman formation and was not even qualified to attack.
Cang Huo's small courtyard is very large, several times larger than Yu Zhi's. Perhaps because of its size, it looks even more eerie. Through the red leaf forest, an occasional wisp of spring breeze has turned into a dark wind on the mass grave.
Yu Zhi felt a chill in his crotch and back.
Yu Zhi choked up and said, "Elder Canghuo, what exactly do you want me to do?"
Cang Huo's friendly smile made Yu Zhi feel a little strange. Last night, Cang Huo, who was still angry, turned into a kind little old man.
Conspiracy, there must be a conspiracy in this.
Immediately, Cang Huo said, "Follow me."
Under the guidance of Cang Huo, Yu Zhi walked into the house. There was no light in the huge house, as if it was in the dark night. Yu Zhi was furious. He didn't like this kind of darkness, which made people feel particularly insecure.
Cang Huo suddenly said: "Are you nervous?"
Yu Zhi tried his best to pretend to be calm and said: "I was bitten by a dog when I was a child, so I am timid."
"What does being cowardly have to do with being black?"
"I was bitten by a dog at night."
Cang Huo: "..."
After walking downhill for a long time, Cang Huo pushed open a stone door, and a gleam of light poured out from the crack in the door.
Yu Zhi knew that the location of the two of them should already be under the courtyard, but he never thought that Cang Huo would actually dig a cave here.
After following Cang Huo into the cave, Yu Zhi saw countless night pearls emitting bright light.
The cave is very large, even much larger than Cang Huo's courtyard. This is probably the hollowing out of the mountain under the red leaf forest. In sects, such secret rooms are very common. After all, treasures don't have to be hidden in secret places.
In the huge secret room, there are dozens of bookshelves with books and scrolls neatly placed on them. This is equivalent to a small sect's scripture library.
Cang Huo introduced: "This is the place where I usually refine talismans. In the past, I would also study formations and the like here."
But what shocked Yu Zhi was that there were several talismans placed on a four-foot-square stone platform. Just the halo flowing on the talismans allowed Yu Zhi to imagine the power of these talismans.
In addition, there is a crimson talisman placed in the middle of the stone platform. The runes on it are only one-third complete, but the halo it emits is brighter than those refined talismans.
Cang Huo saw that Yu Zhi's eyes had been attracted by the red talisman on the stone platform, and he said, "I came to you for this talisman."
Yu Zhi pointed at himself and said doubtfully: "Elder Canghuo, are you mistaken? I really don't know anything about these talismans."
Cang Huo walked into the stone platform, raised his hand and waved, the red talisman was suspended in the air, and only one-third of the talismans were painted, emitting white light. This is a sign that the talisman has not yet been refined.
If it were a complete talisman, the shining light of the talisman should also be red.
"Take a good look with your eyes."
Yu Zhi knew what Cang Huo meant. The true energy circulated and filled his eyes, like the breeze in his eyes. A magical scene appeared in Yu Zhi's eyes.
"This is......"
Following one-third of the runes on the red talisman, a stream of white air flowed along the runes, but it was intermittent, like a silted river blocking the flow of water.
Cang Shui explained: "To refine the talisman, use true energy as ink to carve the runes. This is a rune I have newly studied, but during the process of refining the talisman, it was difficult to carve it smoothly. But after repeated deductions, there was no Found something strange. I think if you can see the flow of Qi, you can definitely find the crux of it."
Yu Zhi thought about it carefully and looked at the red talisman again. Several places where the Qi was blocked became more and more obvious.
Immediately, Yu Zhi said: "What good can I do by helping you?"
