I immediately asked: "How did you die?"
"I don't know how he died. Anyway, he died on the day he ascended to the top. If one of the eight directors hadn't suddenly died suddenly, Wei Chunming wouldn't have been able to reach the lowest position with his qualifications."
The old Taoist replied to me.
No wonder……
I said that Wei Chunming was young, only in his thirties, so incompatible with Qi Dingzhou, who was about to be buried at an age.
In this way, the rule left by Old Huang is more like a prophecy.
"I guess Jingmen thought he had found a way to defeat the leader who climbed to the top without dying, so he was impatient to peep at the boss's position. This method may also be related to you!"
The old Taoist said again.
I nodded. They sent me to a big funeral for no reason. There must be some conspiracy.
Speaking of this, the old Taoist said: "You are so smart, you cheated death with them! You must find a place for me. They insulted me, scolded me and even beat me. What a piece of shit!"
"When you were looking for them, why didn't you reveal your identity as the Divine Machine Sect?"
At this time, I wondered.
"Hey, you don't know something. There are few disciples in our Shenji Sect, and there are also some enemies. Therefore, there were rules established in the sect a long time ago, and the identity cannot be exposed easily." The old Taoist said.
That’s it, I nodded.
As he said that, the old man played with my human skin mask.
"This human skin mask is exquisitely made, but it has some shortcomings. I know a master of disguise from Baxiamen and Qianmen. I will take this human skin mask away and ask him to help you get a better one." A seamless mask of human skin.”
The old Taoist said.
Hearing this, I immediately became happy and said, "It couldn't be better!"
There are specialties in the art industry, and when it comes to cunning and disguise skills in the world, no one can compare with Qianmen.
I heard that the human skin masks they made were so fake that they looked so real that even the makers themselves couldn't recognize the clues!
"You kid, just wait here at the hotel, and then come with me to see your funeral!"
The old Taoist continued to speak and walked first.
The days flew by.
July 5th.
This morning, I was resting in my room, and there was another knock on the door.
I thought it was an old Taoist calling me, but when I opened the door, it turned out to be Jinxiu.
There was an ugly look on her face.
"What's wrong?" I asked.
"The paper phoenix was stolen! Even the magical door-sealing birdcage is missing!"
Jinxiu whispered.
I was stunned...
Stolen again?
"Qi Dingzhou! It must be Qi Dingzhou! He stole the heirloom of my Jin family last time, and this time he stole this birdcage and paper phoenix!"
Jinxiu's pride was ups and downs, and he was very angry.
This Jingmen director has a criminal record and is indeed the most likely person.
I said, "Just steal it. Since the paper phoenix has no chance of joining your family, there's no need to force it. I won't go and find it for you."
"Chen Qi, it was stolen because of my incompetence. Regarding this paper phoenix, I have no intention of asking you to help me find it. In two days, Jingmen will hold a grand funeral for you and ascend to the position of leader. I I know that as Huang Yongen's apprentice, you will not let it go, and if he takes away this paper phoenix, I am worried that it may pose a threat to you, so..."
Jinxiu seemed to be even more angry and said, "That's why I'm here to remind you!"
"Okay, I get it now."
I nodded and said.
"You didn't take it seriously. Forget it. It's just me being sentimental. It would be best if you died. It's just a pity that no one can help me find the family heirloom."
Her beautiful eyes glared at me.
After saying that, she was about to leave, but I thought of something and said: "Qi Dingzhou has repeatedly stolen treasures. I guess there is a traitor in your family. The news that the Queen Mother of the West's coffin was sent to the tomb last time should not have been stolen by Qi Dingzhou." Knowing so quickly, it was probably the traitor who exposed him."
Jinxiu replied to me and said: "I have already reacted and I am also checking. After my father's health recovers, we will definitely not let go of Qi Dingzhou and this traitor."
I said: "This traitor may be the person closest to you."
"Do you know who this traitor is?"
Jinxiu was stunned and asked me.
"Not sure."
"No, you know, Chen Qi, tell me!"
Jinxiu's eyes are eye-catching.
After hesitating for a moment, I said, "Your personal assistant...Xiao Qin."
"Impossible! Anyone in Jintian Hanoi will betray me, Jinxiu, but she will not!"
Jinxiu denied it without thinking.
I didn't say anything more, knowing that Jinxiu might not believe it if I told her.
However, under such tight security conditions in Jintianhe, the person who helped Qi Dingzhou steal the Jin family heirloom, steal Qian Laosan's paper phoenix, and also knew that I was going to deliver the coffin of the Queen Mother of the West to the tomb, except those who had been following me during that time Apart from our Xiao Qin, there is no one else.
Although I am just guessing, I feel that it is almost the same.
The reason why Jinxiu didn't suspect her for so long was because she was obsessed with the authorities and was emotionally affected.
Then, I said, "I'm going downstairs to have dinner, will you come with me?"
"have eaten."
Jinxiu said, then left the hotel without looking back.
She left in a hurry, and my words seemed to have caused some fluctuations in her heart.
…
July 7th.
This morning, the old man came to the hotel to find me again.
"It will take some time to make your human skin mask. Let's wear this mask first."
The old man gave me a crudely made mask.
Since I haven’t figured out what happened to Jingmen, I can’t reveal that I faked my death for the time being.
"That's right, let's go, you can pretend to be my apprentice."
The old man said with a smile and nodded with satisfaction: "I heard that Jingmen held a condolence ceremony for you at a funeral parlor in Shangjing this morning. After the condolence ceremony, you will be buried and you will inherit the position of leader."
"Okay, let's go to the funeral home first." I nodded.
Then, I took a taxi, and Lao Dao and I headed towards a funeral parlor in Shangjing.
Many people have come to the funeral home.
There was a greeter standing at the door, who looked like a feng shui master.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute! Who are you two? Not everyone can come here!"
He immediately stopped us.
"Didn't you Qi Dingzhou say that all my colleagues in the Jianghu community can come here to express their condolences whenever they are free?"
The old Taoist said angrily.
"Are you also a member of the Jianghu? Which force do you belong to when you are dressed like this?"
Jingmen Feng Shui master frowned and said.
The old Taoist's clothes were really sloppy, and he really didn't look like someone from today's world.
I was thinking in my mind, since the old Taoist can't reveal the identity of Shenjimen, how can he get in?
To my surprise, the old man took out a token.
He held the token high and said angrily: "I'll blind you guys! I am the leader of the important sect! Who dares to stop me!"
