In Taiyuan City.
Five Elements Sword is communicating with the Linghu family. After all, the Linghu family is not a small sect, and the person here is now the matriarch of the family.
Especially this woman is from the Mei family, one of the eight great families in the world.
The Five Elements Sword cannot suppress others with force, so it can only continue to negotiate, trying to find out from the Linghu family the whereabouts and origins of the person who stole the Kunli Sect's treasure.
After two days, everyone in Five Elements Sword, except the Mountain God, was almost talking to pieces, and still could not get any useful information from the Linghu family.
The mountain god Peng Bing has always stayed behind closed doors. The reason is that as an old man, the Linghu family is now headed by a young man and a woman, and it is difficult for him to come forward.
Otherwise, it will be bullying the young, which will bring disgrace to the face.
But now looking at the situation of the Linghu family, it seems that it will be impossible if he doesn't take action.
Of course, given the mountain god's rank, it's not like he did nothing during this period.
With his qualifications, he had already established his own network without even knowing it.
All the important people in the Linghu family here are being watched.
Some clues were also discovered from it.
Today he was going to have a showdown with the Linghu family.
But just as he was about to finish his meditation practice, a luxury carriage arrived in front of the house where Kunli Sect was located.
This mansion was given as a gift from the Lin family when they first came here.
Now even the land deed is in the hands of the mountain god.
The eldest young master of the Lin family made a mistake, and of course he must be punished.
The two disciples of Kunli Sect couldn't help but look wary when they saw the carriage parked in front of their house.
It has to be said that the disciples of Kunli Sect are of high quality and very vigilant. This is the attitude you should have when walking in the world.
Like Liu Xin and Xiao Qi, their attitudes are too casual.
Opposite the Kunli Sect's house, there is a row of stalls on the street selling snacks such as tea, melons and fruits.
At a tea stall, an old man wearing a newly purchased cotton coat was drinking tea and chatting with the stall owner.
The old man is new here. He just set up a stall on this street. He sells marijuana flowers. He says that he is from Tianjin and speaks a foreign dialect. However, the old merchants on this street don’t know if this is Tianjin dialect. .
I just think the accent is quite good, quite like the storytellers from Tianjin.
Especially the old man talks interestingly and has a lot of jokes inside and outside of his words, which makes these hawkers happy to listen.
At this time, the old man just said: The great disciple of the Holy Sect came down from the mountain and stirred up trouble in the court, and many officials were dismissed because of this.
When he got to the exciting point, the old man suddenly shut up. The two vendors at the table next to him were listening with interest. They suddenly stopped talking and immediately looked at the old man.
But he saw that the old man's eyes had turned to the other side, which was the largest house on this street. At this time, a carriage pulled by two horses slowly stopped at the door of the house.
The old man grabbed a handful of peanuts on the table, rubbed them in his palms, and a handful of peanut pods came out. He stuffed a handful into his mouth and murmured:
"If you drive two horses together, you are at least a marquis."
His voice was not quiet, and the people around him had actually followed his gaze. When they heard the old man's words, these vendors immediately looked away like an electric shock.
Marquis!
Although I don't know if what the old man said is accurate, looking at the two-horse carriage, it is not ordinary people.
If he was really a lord, no matter whether he was a marquis or not, ordinary people like them at the lowest level would not be able to pay attention to him.
The old man turned his head and saw several of his regular customers scattering away, and suddenly felt bored.
Opening his big mouth full of yellow teeth, he drank most of the bowl of water on the table in one breath, slapped two coins on the table, and then came to his stall.
He is a fortune teller, but he is neither blind nor lame, so no one really cares about him.
After setting up the stall for two days, I told the fortune of one person, the tea shop owner, for free.
It is calculated that his tea shop business will be better in the past few days.
As a result, just because the old man was there telling stories, he attracted nearby vendors, and business did get better.
The tea shop owner had nothing to say, but it was free after all, so he didn’t bother the old man.
At this time, the old man returned to his shop. Behind him was a bamboo pole with a wooden stick tied to the top. Hanging from the wooden stick was a foot of linen cloth with four characters for fortune telling and divination written on it.
When the old man sat down, someone walked out of the big house.
"Mountain God Peng Bing... He has entered the realm of Dzogchen through thick soil training. He has good talent. Unfortunately, he is too old and is almost the same as me." The old man muttered. This time his voice was so soft that others could hardly hear it. Listen clearly.
The man who walked out of the big house was the mountain god.
The mountain god heard a report from his disciples that a carriage from the Duke of Shu was coming to visit, and the visitor was very arrogant and unwilling to get off the carriage.
The other four members of the Five Elements Sword are drinking tea and gossiping in the Linghu family at the moment. He is the only one with status here.
Although he was a little reluctant, it was the carriage of the Duke of Shu after all.
Among the eight princes today, apart from the Duke of Wu and the Duke of Qin, the most powerful one is the Duke of Shu.
It's just that because of the emperor's brother-in-law, the Duke of Shu is destined to remain in his current position. No further development is possible until his son or grandson succeeds him.
For this reason, the Shu Kingdom is relatively low-key in daily life, as if it is not well-known in the whole world.
But only those with higher status among some big forces would vaguely know that the power of the Duke of Shu was huge and was expanding all the time.
It's just that the expansion method chosen by the Duke of Shu is relatively low-key and gentle, but the more tentacles there are, the faster the development speed, and the cycle continues. Now, the speed of expansion is actually very terrifying.
The mountain god is one of the insiders.
And he also knew that the relationship between the Linghu family and the Duke of Shu was very good. They were in the same city, and they probably wore the same pair of pants.
The Linghu family might even have become a vassal of the Duke of Shu.
When the mountain god went out to greet him, the person in the carriage couldn't sit still. He was not the Duke of Shu. According to her status, she was almost the same as the mountain god.
As soon as he arrived at the carriage, the mountain god showed an imperceptible look of disgust because the aroma coming out of the carriage was too strong.
And the fragrance lingering around the carriage is definitely not an ordinary spice.
And the mountain god happened to know a sect that had this unpleasant smell.
He secretly thought that it was bad luck and could only hope that he was not from that sect.
As a result, the curtain opened and a scantily clad woman stepped out of the carriage.
Before the person even got out of the carriage, a smooth jade leg had already been stretched out.
The vendors along the street suddenly felt their eyes light up, and they were all attracted by the light. When they saw this beautiful leg, their eyes almost popped out.
Although the people of the Zhengyang Dynasty were open and not as feudal as the previous dynasties, there were still few opportunities to see such a scene.
All the vendors couldn't help but take a few more glances.
The woman in the car seemed to want her beauty to be seen by more people, so she stretched her legs very slowly.
"Are you Granny Gu's disciple or grandson?"
The mountain god said angrily.
The woman's movement of stretching her legs stalled, and then she opened the curtain and appeared in front of everyone.
The woman's upper body is wrapped in fur, the kind of snow-white fox fur.
The fox fur is not warm and the brocade quilt is thin.
In this winter, she is wearing a fox fur upper body, but the lower body is a thin silk skirt, and it is also a short skirt.
The merchants on this street looked up and down at this woman. They said she was a shameless vixen, but their eyes were extremely honest and they searched up and down without leaving any trace.
Only the old man's eyes were looking up and down, but his eyes were very clear and there was no obscene light in them.
"Which family's girl is this, with such incredible cultivation?"
The old man was extremely confused.
Judging from her appearance, this woman should be no more than thirty years old.
Her face is that of a twenty-year-old girl.
There must be some secret method to casting the appearance.
This secret technique is often found in sects where women gather.
However, this kind of sect was relatively common in previous dynasties, but it is relatively rare in this dynasty.
The main reason is that this dynasty is more tolerant of women and is not as harsh, severe and contemptuous as the previous dynasty.
Therefore, in the previous dynasty, many women rebelled and competed with men out of resentment.
On the contrary, the women of this dynasty were more affectionate and affectionate with men.
The old man also met a woman after he came down the mountain, but the woman was followed by another man. The woman said she was unwilling to go up the mountain to practice Taoism with him.
Obviously the man's talent was so good, but both of them said they would either go up the mountain together or not go up the mountain at all.
And the old man could tell that the purpose of these two people going up the mountain was just to travel and have sex.
But our Daomen is not a place for you to fall in love.
Later he met Xiao Qi, whose talent was also the most outstanding among the young people he had ever seen.
He followed Xiao Qi and gradually discovered that this young man's temperament was a bit inconsistent with the Taoist sect.
However, this kid had a chivalrous heart and saw the right thing, so the old man decided to follow him and see if there were any outstanding young people.
As a result, I really discovered a lot this time, especially Liu Xin.
Good talent and smart mind.
It's a pity that he is too smart and very independent.
Such people are already determined, and the old man can't change anything.
Moreover, he learned from Liu Xin that Xiao Qi was also a disciple of the Holy Sect.
He couldn't do anything to steal disciples from that old guy from the Holy Sect.
It’s not that it can’t be done, it’s that it can’t be done.
This matter involves an old incident from decades ago.
The old man only felt that the distracting thoughts in his heart were getting deeper. The past few months of going down the mountain had almost ruined his decades of self-cultivation.
Therefore, he chose to join the world to experience.
Come here to see the warmth and warmth of human relationships, and the various forms of human relationships.
I didn't expect to see such a strange little girl.
He couldn't help but take a second look, trying to figure out where this girl was coming from.
He swore it was definitely not because of those big white legs that could blind one's eyes in this early winter season.
"Granny Gu, who are you talking about? I don't know him.
The Nu family came to find Senior Mountain God on the orders of the Second Young Master. "
The mountain god shook his head noncommittally.
"Stop showing off these ridiculous excuses in front of me.
I know you are from the Duke of Shu.
But it doesn’t affect the fact that you are also from the Gold Cutting Cave. "
In the last sentence, the mountain god uses internal power to transmit his voice.
Therefore, only the girl in front of me heard the voice.
The girl's face changed slightly.
She smiled bitterly and shook her head, then said:
"As expected of Senior Mountain God, you have clearly figured out the details of the slave family."
"Don't forget that our Kunli Sect is one of the auxiliary sects of Emperor Wu City."
The mountain god said matter-of-factly.
"Marquis Wu of Emperor Wu City is pervasive in the entire world, and it's normal for him to know that we are.
In this case, the little girl no longer hides and tucks her away.
Grandma Gu has six disciples, Blue Bird.
Meet Senior Mountain God again! "
"Unexpectedly, the once number one killer organization in the world, the Golden Cave, has now become a minion of the Duke of Shu."
The mountain god's words were still transmitted through his internal power.
"Let's go."
The mountain god said angrily.
After saying that, he turned around and strode inside.
The woman named Qingniao gently jumped out of the carriage, and before crossing the threshold of Fuding, she suddenly stopped and turned around to salute the vendors on the street.
The vendors all over the street looked away at the same time, but they couldn't help but secretly look at the blue bird.
The same goes for the old man.
But he was pretending.
Although the mountain god's internal power of sound transmission is powerful, it is almost difficult for others to detect it.
But for the old man, he has some means to detect it.
"Pinjin Cave, I didn't expect that he would come out of the mountain again after a few years."
The old man shook his head, stood up and started to clean up the stall.
The merchant on the side asked him immediately when he saw this.
The old man just shook his head, sighed, and said something to the vendors on the street.
"The weather is unpredictable. Now the clouds will be overcast and the thunder will roll. It's better for the old man to go back as soon as possible."
After drinking, the old man slowly walked toward the end of the long street carrying the fortune-telling flagpole.
A group of vendors looked up at the sky. It was clearly a cloudless and beautiful weather, but why did the old man say it turned into clouds?
The Golden Cave was the number one killer organization in the world ten years ago.
Because as long as you spend enough money, you can assassinate anyone in the world, even a master. As long as you can afford the money, they will still plan to commit murder.
Of course, no one actually paid them to kill the Grandmaster.
After all, that amount was too expensive, even more than Zhengyang's two years of taxes.
No one in the world can afford this price.
The Pinjin Cave is extremely mysterious. No one knows where their lair is or who their leader is.
The killers in the Golden Cave are mainly women, and their main focus is to have a far-reaching plan to kill people invisibly.
Each of their assassinations will be planned for a long time, creating many exquisite steps.
Therefore, the person being assassinated is often assassinated even if he is on guard.
According to rumors, the success rate of assassinations in Pinjin Cave is over 90%.
This was an extremely terrifying figure at the time. There was no killer organization more powerful than the Jinjin Cave in the entire world.
And there were indeed no other famous killer organizations during that period.
It was as if there was only one killer organization in the whole world, Pinjin Cave.
Some people say that other killer organizations were destroyed at the hands of Pinjinku.
But this is just a rumor, but even so some people believe it.
Until the appearance of the Dog Slaughter Sect.
The first thing the Zodiac Killer of the Dog Slaughter Sect did when he was born was to destroy the Golden Cave.
You must know that although the Pinjin Cave inheritance is not as long as those top sects, it still lasts for decades.
During this time, no one has ever found his lair.
But in the first year after the Zodiac Killer appeared, corpses of some people would appear out of thin air in every city in the world.
And next to these corpses, there is definite evidence that they are killers.
For example, their weapons, and their documents for accepting entrusted tasks.
In short, in just one year, hundreds of killers from the Golden Cave were wiped out.
It was also at this time that everyone in the world knew that the Gold Sales Cave had such a huge reserve of killers.
But what scares people in the world even more is that only twelve people were able to eliminate so many killers.
It is the Zodiac Killer.
Every time they kill someone they leave a symbol next to it.
One symbol represents a different zodiac killer.
They are all simplified animal images.
Among them, the rat symbol appears the most.
Everyone knows that the strongest among the twelve zodiac killers is the rat!
But these are all things for later.
The scene turned to the blue bird who followed the mountain god into the mansion.
Even the disciples of the Kunli Sect under the mountain god couldn't help but cast their eyes on the blue bird with big white legs.
Qingniao's face itself is relatively delicate, but it is extremely gorgeous with heavy makeup.
Coupled with the devil's figure, slender waist and those earth-shattering big white legs.
It's enough to attract the attention of most men.
Except for the mountain god.
The mountain god did not show the slightest interest in the blue bird, and even felt a little disgusted.
Blue Bird felt this very clearly from the former.
But she believes in her ability to play with a man's emotions.
Just when she was planning which method to use next to test the mountain god, she heard the buzzing sound of the mountain god's internal energy reaching directly to her head, which made her scalp numb and made her feel dizzy.
“Don’t try to use your little tricks.
Grandma Gu doesn't even dare to do these things to me. "
The blue bird stayed there for a long time before coming back to his senses.
She smiled bitterly and reached out to rub the center of her eyebrows. The pain in her head still continued, but it was not as sudden and intense as before.
"The skills I practice are just right to restrain you.
Only Granny Gu's lineage is left in Pinjin Cave. You must cherish your little lives.
The Zodiac Killer didn't want innocent women like you to lose a way out, so he left Granny Gu behind.
If you go too far, it may lead to death.
Since you are willing to surrender under the command of the Duke of Shu, then live a good life! "
Hearing this, Qingniao's pretty face showed some complicated expressions.
Arriving at the back room, the mountain god said:
"Hurry up and explain your purpose of coming. Your second young master should be deeply loved by the Duke of Shu.
I heard that the Duke of Shu has twelve guest ministers and many talented people.
But with Granny Gu's ability, she is still among the top batch.
The fact that you can stay with this second young master is enough to explain the problem.
Your sudden visit has disturbed my practice.
So long story short! "
