Several people arrived at Lingzhou City in a carriage. It was already noon, and the officials did not speak again along the way.
Lin'er hugged Ta Xue and fell asleep under the bumps of the carriage. Gu Xiao instead observed Shangguan Renyan who had his eyes closed and was concentrating. This man's words were unorganized, but there was something strange in his words. .
Feeling Lin'er's head resting gently on his shoulder, Gu Xiao realized that Lin'er was already fast asleep. At this moment, the girl was sleeping soundly with Texue in her arms. Her long eyelashes covered her apricot eyes. The girl The fragrance of the hair fills the nose, which is endearing.
Gu Xiao quickly took off his cloak and covered the girl. But he didn't see Shangguan Renyan, who was concentrating with his eyes closed, showing an imperceptible gentle smile on his lips.
The owner of Liuzhuang and the old man surnamed Fei came to mind again. Why did these two people want to take Wan Jun's life? Gu Xiao wondered in his heart, since these two people were alive, what happened to the fire in Liuzhuang? Where did the owner of the village get the Mohist Order?
These questions have been swirling in Gu Xiao's mind. He really can't connect these things together. As the carriage bumps, Gu Xiao's starry eyes flash. Gu Xiao keeps thinking about these things. His head hurts and he can't understand them. Get a clue.
Shaking his head gently, it is better to take care of brother Tianya's affairs first, Gu Xiao thought silently in his heart.
Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Xue Hu say: "Master, Brother Mu, we have arrived in Lingzhou."
Lin'er was woken up by Xue Hu, and after rubbing her sleepy eyes, she realized that she had fallen asleep on Gu Xiao's shoulder at some point, and she was wearing Gu Xiao's cloak.
Lin'er felt a little shy and panicked, but seeing him turning his head and looking out the window attentively, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Following his eyes, he could already see the towering city walls of Lingzhou.
There were more and more people entering the city around the carriage, and the bustling crowd slowed down the carriage. Gu Xiao also saw that Lin'er had woken up, so he got out of the car, stretched his body, and rubbed the slightly sore quilt Lin'er was leaning against. Behind his shoulder, Gu Xiao suddenly discovered that Shangguan Renyan had also gotten off the carriage at some point and was standing side by side with him.
"Little brother, thank you for your kindness. Now that we have arrived in Lingzhou, I will say goodbye." Shangguan Renyan seemed to have closed his eyes and meditated on the carriage, returned to his normal state of mind, and said to Gu Xiao.
Gu Xiao hurriedly returned the greeting and said: "Young people in the world, there is no need to be polite. I would like to wish Brother Shangguan a safe journey on your journey."
"Haha, little brother, we are destined. Judging from the hexagrams, our fate is more than that." Shangguan Renyan laughed loudly and was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something. He turned around and took out a bag from his arms. The object was stuffed into Gu Xiao's hands.
Looking down, Gu Xiao found that what Shangguan Renyan had given him was the copper coins he had used for divination on the road. The three copper coins seemed to be a few years old. Despite Shangguan Renyan's shabby clothes, these three coins The copper coins are extremely clean, without a trace of dirt, and shine under the winter sun. The front and back of the copper plate are engraved with "Xiang Zhao Tong Bao" and auspicious dragon patterns.
Gu Xiao was shocked when it came to the coins of Zhao State. Although the dynasty changed, Emperor Qi Yun did not waste money and people by minting coins. The copper coins of the previous dynasty could still be used normally by the people. However, after all, many years had passed since Qi Yun replaced Zhao. The coins were gradually replaced by Qiyun Tongbao and are rarely seen anymore.
Gu Xiao caressed the copper coins lightly and quickly raised his head, only to see the crowd passing by, but Shangguan Renyan was nowhere to be seen.
"It's a weird person he's carrying." Gu Xiao muttered to himself when he saw Shangguan Renyan leaving silently while he was looking at the copper coins. He could no longer find anyone.
"What's wrong?" Lin'er took care of herself a little in the car, got out of the carriage, and saw Gu Xiao looking at the objects in his hands and talking to himself, but Shangguan Renyan had disappeared, so he asked.
"The man said something weird and gave me three more copper coins from the past. When I looked up again, he was gone." Gu Xiao explained and handed the coins to Lin'er.
"Huh? It's really Zhao Guo's money." Lin'er's eyes immediately brightened up, and she looked at the crowd, her almond-shaped eyes clearly carrying some different emotions from those in the car.
Gu Xiao saw Lin'er's expression in his eyes and just smiled and said: "If you like it, I will give you these three copper coins. This thing from the past is now a rare thing."
"Then I'd like to thank Master Gu for the gift of money." Lin'er really liked these three copper coins. Hearing Gu Xiao speak, he immediately replied jokingly.
But after all, it was something someone else gave to Gu Xiao. If he wanted to get it back in the future, Gu Xiao would be embarrassed if he couldn't take it out. So he smiled and put the three copper coins back into Xiao's hand and said, "But this is what someone gave you." , you have to keep it well, in case you encounter it again one day, and someone asks for it back, but you lose it, it will be hard to explain."
After saying this, Lin'er stretched himself and said to himself: "You have to go shopping quickly, otherwise brother Tianya and sister will have to wait in a hurry." With a graceful figure and a slight swing at the waist, she walked towards the gate of Lingzhou City. Seeing this, Xue Hu quickly drove to follow. In Xue Hu's opinion, when he arrived in Lingzhou, he would naturally have a full meal.
Gu Xiao scratched his head. The matter explained by Brother Tianya was indeed more important at the moment, so he carefully put the three coins away, followed Lin'er, and headed towards Lingzhou City.
——
However, it was said that Hu Bao got the news that the person in the portrait had arrived in Lingzhou City in Hutou Village, and without any delay, he immediately set off to Xiaolou Peak and reported the news to Chi Qianren truthfully.
After hearing the news, Chi Qianren was not as excited as Hu Bao imagined. Instead, he sent someone to inform Liu and Fei of the news to observe their reactions.
In the time it took to make a cup of tea, Liu and Fei hurried over. They saw Chi Qianren tasting wine alone in the meeting hall and showed no sign of taking action.
Liu Piaopiao caught a glimpse of Hu Bao also in the hall, so he couldn't tell Wan Jun's name directly, so he could only say: "Brother Chi, since we have information about that person, why not make arrangements as soon as possible to prevent this person from getting away."
Chi Qianren smiled and said: "Don't worry, Master Liu, I will arrange the attack. It's just the news that Master Hu found out. There are more than ten expert guards around this person. Although there has been no rule for employers to take action since ancient times, this time The matter is of great importance, and Chi wants to ask the two of you to stand aside to hold the battle, but I don’t know what your intentions are.”
Chi Qianren's words played right into Liu Piaopiao's heart. He was already worried about how to find a normal reason for himself and Fei Wei to participate in the interception and killing. Now that Chi Qianren took the initiative to speak, he naturally agreed. He immediately said that he could go with the Shake Senren, and even take the man's life by himself.
After hearing this, Chi Qianren clapped his hands and laughed, saying that he was very happy. He immediately ordered Hu Bao to quickly find out when the man would leave the city. At the same time, he summoned a group of Momen traitors and divided more than ten people into two teams, just waiting for Hu Bao's news. You can set off immediately.
Seeing that everything had been arranged, Liu and Fei were naturally relieved, but they heard Chi Qianren say: "There are no outsiders in this hall. In addition to the critical matter, there is one more thing that needs to trouble you two."
From the perspective of Liu and Fei, all they needed to do was coax Chi Qianren into taking action at this time. After all, they would have to silence them after the matter was accomplished. No matter how many conditions there were at the moment, it didn't matter if they all accepted them.
"Since we are traveling in the same boat, we naturally help each other. If there is anything else that brothers Chi need from me and I, just ask." Liu Piaopiao's cold eyes moved slightly and she immediately spoke.
"A few days ago, you two also met my junior brother. To be honest, I have an old grudge with my junior brother. I wanted to use your strength to kill him on the day of the interception." Chi Qian. Blade said calmly.
Liu and Fei thought it was nothing, but it turned out that they were doing it for the life of the ordinary man in the hall that day. Fei Wei was even more disdainful of this person. He was defeated by himself in the ceremony hall that day. If the man accompanying him hadn't taken action, it would have only been a matter of seconds to take his life. However, the man who looked like a night detective Liu The people of Zhuang made him quite afraid.
He immediately snorted and said: "That man is only in the Dengtang realm. Brother Liu doesn't need to take action. I can kill him by myself. If Master Chi opens his mouth, I will kill him now."
"No hurry, Brother Fei, I still need his men to take action to hold back Wan Jun's accompanying guards." Chi Qianren thought about what Hu Bao said about the man whose back resembled Shen Yulou's. Since he wanted to take the remaining After issuing the order of Yin Zi and Mo Zhe, Liu and Fei were silenced, so it would be the best way to let Liu and Fei and Chi Tianya's group kill each other while reaping the benefits.
"However, if the scar-faced man who took action in the meeting hall that day took action, he would probably need the help of the leader," Fei Wei said.
"It's easy to say, I also want to fight with him." After hearing Fei Wei mention the scarred man, Chi Qianren remembered that he had defeated the one-hit killing move he was determined to win in front of the Lingzhou boundary monument, and immediately said.
"Okay, in that case, let's take action together when the time comes and kill that kid." Fei Wei couldn't help stroking his hands and smiling.
The enemy of the enemy is also a friend. Even at the foot of Xiaolou Peak, he almost made a move. Now that he heard that Shachi Qianren was willing to take action against the scar-faced man, he temporarily put aside the small grudges of that day.
The three people in the meeting hall each had their own hidden agendas and wanted to kill each other, but on their faces they remained friendly. Once they had agreed, Liu and Fei left to prepare for the interception.
Only Chichiren was left in the meeting hall. He slowly took out a small bottle from his sleeve and opened the cork. Immediately, the fragrance of elixir overflowed. The elixir was completely blood red, with only an ink spot appearing in the middle of the elixir. , although the house is filled with the fragrance of elixirs, if you smell it carefully, you will find that the fragrance of elixirs has a strange fishy-sweet smell.
Chi Qianren stared at the only two pills left in the bottle and sneered: "Chi Tianya, you can't believe that the old guy didn't even tell you about this thing, but he passed it to me. Mo Ling Dan, In front of the Grandmaster Realm, take one pill and break through a realm. I originally thought that after entering the Artifact Realm, I would rely on this elixir to step into the Realm and know the sky, but don't force me now."
This Mo Ling Dan is Chi Qianren's last resort and his last trump card against Liu and Fei. But you can only take two Mo Ling Pills in your life. If you take the third one greedily, your body will explode and die.
The founder of Mo Sect, Chi An, accidentally obtained this Mo Ling Dan. Seeing that although this elixir was evil but also rare, he did not destroy the elixir, but brought it back to Mo Sect and placed it in the Dan Pavilion. It is strictly forbidden for Mohist disciples to take this elixir.
As the years passed, the disciples of the Mo clan gradually forgot about this elixir, but Chi Baifan accidentally discovered this elixir, and relied on this elixir to break the mirror, and became the most favored disciple of this lineage. Later, the Black Spirit Pill was passed on to Chi Qianren. At that time, Chi Tianya and others had not yet started, so naturally they did not know the existence of this pill.
Chi Qianren thought, if he could make Liu and Fei fight with Chi Tianya by intercepting Wanjun, then he wouldn't have to take this pill to break the mirror and kill people. After he breaks the mirror weapon, he will take this elixir. From then on, relying on the realm of knowing the sky, he can compete with the famous masters in the world. Thinking of this, Jie Jie's laughter of Chi Qianbian spread throughout the meeting hall.
