Zhang Xuezhou's perception has always been very keen. Once he feels something is wrong in his heart, he will change direction.
But Zhang Xuezhou found that things were developing faster than he imagined.
At the third watch, there was an old man with white beard and white hair in the wing of the hotel where he was staying.
"Help me, quickly!"
The old man pointed to his chest.
There was no skin damage on his chest, but there were signs of vomiting blood in his mouth.
Zhang Xuezhou glanced at it and blinked his eyelids.
He's seen injuries like this.
This was the symptom of internal bleeding after Wei Shaoer escaped using the Willow Substitute Technique.
"I dare not save you!"
Emperor Jing's funeral had already been carried out, but Zhang Xuezhou didn't expect anyone to go to the palace to cause trouble.
Without the suppression of Emperor Jing, some people continued to run rampant using various techniques.
Seeing these people going back and forth to the palace, Zhang Xuezhou felt that the palace of the Han Dynasty had almost become the back garden of these people.
But Zhang Xuezhou was not sure whether the old man had completely escaped Li Guang. If Li Guang followed him and saw him giving treatment, it would be a troublesome matter.
Zhang Xuezhou took a few steps back and pulled Rong Tianding up on the bed.
He couldn't help but move back a little and hit the wall with his heels to see if he could borrow Wei Shao'er's help.
"There is a trapped dragon between your eyebrows. If the situation is not broken, you will be trapped in the present for the rest of your life." The old man said quickly: "There are not many people who can give you guidance at the moment. I should be able to give you some tips!"
"You were shot by General Li Guang. He has probably targeted you. My rescue is not a dilemma, but a dead end." Zhang Xuezhou shook his head.
Those who can break into the palace at night need not only strength, but also desperadoes.
If he wasn't afraid that the old man would suddenly attack, Zhang Xuezhou felt that he would probably jump out of the window and escape with Rong Tianding.
At this time, he just wanted to delay it for a while.
If Li Guang comes, he can just arrest him.
If Li Guang doesn't come for a long time, he can perform a spell on the old man.
If the old man becomes more seriously injured or dies while he is stalling for time, he will report it to the official.
It is not difficult to guide things correctly, and it also allows Zhang Xuezhou to delay as much time as possible without angering the old man.
"You are indeed as my senior brother said, with average cultivation qualifications but extraordinary IQ!"
After looking at Zhang Xuezhou for a few seconds, the old man couldn't help but sigh.
"I major in the art of fortune-telling. You should know who my senior brother is," the old man said, "I hope you can help me out of friendship. I will definitely repay you in the future!"
The old man's words made Zhang Xuezhou's expression change continuously.
One Hongku is troublesome enough.
He finally hid in the Han Dynasty to avoid being involved, but suddenly another junior brother Hong Ku appeared.
Judging from the courage of the other party to break into the palace at night, his ability to cause trouble is not inferior to Hong Ku at all, and the trouble he brings will definitely not be less than Hong Ku.
"Why is it being retaliated again?" Rong Tianding said warily.
"This is really a possibility of major revenge!"
It is only half-truth to say that Young Master Wei will be repaid in the future, but it is hard to say what the old man will be repaid in the future.
As long as the old man's personality is similar to Hong Ku's, Zhang Xuezhou feels that there is probably no such thing as a 'future' between himself and Rong Tianding.
"You are right, I do still have some abilities that are enough to kill you," the old man said, "If we work together, we will both benefit, and if we lose, we will both be hurt!"
"Are all of us prime ministers like this?" Zhang Xuezhou asked with an ugly expression.
"You are no different from us!"
"You are no different from us!"
The old man added, indicating that there would be no difference between Zhang Xuezhou's choices after he ended up like him.
"I used Qimen Escape Technique to escape. It will take Li Guang a quarter of an hour to get here. The longer you delay, the shorter the time will be to treat me and deal with the consequences." The old man said: "If you are willing to delay until you and I die together, , then I can’t do anything!”
"Look at what our uncle said, how can our family speak two different languages!"
The old man explained everything clearly, not only telling Li Guang the time of arrival, but also making Zhang Xuezhou's strategy of delaying time useless.
If you want to cooperate, the best choice is to cooperate immediately.
If the fish is dead or the net is broken, or if they pin their hopes on Li Guang, the other party will ask Zhang Xuezhou to get the hammer.
This made Zhang Xuezhou immediately change his expression.
The other party's behavior style was very similar to Hong Ku's. If it weren't for his different appearance and ability, Zhang Xuezhou would almost suspect that he was facing Hong Ku.
He didn't bargain at this time, and he didn't want to get anything in return from the old man. He just wanted this plague god to leave as soon as possible.
His risk perception was indeed correct. He did induce some risks in treating his injuries, and fixing his residence and setting up a stall in the West Market also fell into the eyes of others.
But when Zhang Xuezhou sought to change the world again, he was still a step too slow in changing guesthouses, so he was found here by the old man.
He chanted a mantra in his mouth, wrapped his right hand with mana, and printed the Taiqing Zhenjutsu towards the old man from a distance.
"You are seeking to change your luck and destiny by being tied to the court. Remember not to rely on any force. Relying on any force will bring you irreversible overthrow!"
When Zhang Xuezhou used Taiqing Zhenshu, the old man breathed a sigh of relief, and then gave corresponding warnings.
"What do you mean?" Zhang Xuezhou asked doubtfully.
"Li Guang can't do it, Tian Fu can't do it, Dong Zhongshu can't do it, no one can do it!"
The old man pointed at Zhang Xuezhou and then at himself.
As if he knew some of the senior officials Zhang Xuezhou was currently in contact with, the old man directly named some of them.
"Once you are classified into a certain group, even if you have good luck for a while, you will definitely be involved and die in the future!" the old man said.
"You mean I can only rely on myself?" Zhang Xuezhou said in surprise.
"Some people have two faces, or even two or even three identities, and their motives are complex and changeable. You don't want to die without knowing how you died!"
The old man warned to be extremely cautious.
When the feeling of nausea and vomiting in his chest subsided, he took a deep breath.
He took out a white ball, which quickly turned into thick white smoke.
With a slight "bang" sound, the old man's figure disappeared into the white smoke. When the white smoke dissipated, the old man's figure was no longer in the room.
"Cousin, are we in trouble again?"
Being woken up from his sleep by Zhang Xuezhou, Rong Tianding was a little confused at first, but after a few words of conversation, he was already aware of the risk.
And when the old man performed the magic and left, he couldn't help but become anxious.
"With only a quarter of an hour, how can we escape?" Zhang Xuezhou murmured.
When the slight sound of horse hoofbeats hit his ears, Zhang Xuezhou couldn't help but cursed the liar in his heart.
Obviously, the words of his cheap uncle were not taken seriously, and he could not count the time it took to mention Li Guang's arrival within a quarter of an hour.
The slight sound of horse hooves is not in a distant place, but the horse is running extremely fast and softly. Now it has been tracked to this place.
Zhang Xuezhou didn't even think about it, and then quickly opened the window on the second floor.
"The remnants of the Immortal Court have indeed been here!"
Most of the guesthouses face the street, and the street is below Zhang Xuezhou's sliding window.
When the window opened, he heard Cheng Bushi's low curse, and Li Guang jumped from his horse, then flew up like a big bird and entered the guest room through the second floor window.
