The... reward for that time in the Divine Capital?
In the wing room, after Ji Pingan said these words lightly, he clearly noticed the surprise and consternation in the eyes of the masked beauty in front of him.
Soon, it turned into a hint of enlightenment and "sure enough".
Nangong Wan's expression was complicated, and she suddenly stood up and bowed solemnly to salute. Because her movements were too large, her career line was completely exposed:
"It turns out that Ji Sichen was the one who helped last time. Wan'er was disrespectful."
At the beginning, when the Shendu Grand Prize was held, Tingxue Louzhu, who was deeply in conflict with "Juxian Village", went to the capital to try to find a backer for help, but failed.
When there was no hope, the owner of Juxian Villa was killed by Ji Ping'an, indirectly helping him get rid of a strong enemy. Ji Ping'an even paid a visit and sent him a list of traitors within "Tingxue Tower".
Objectively speaking, the kindness to him is indeed not small.
Ji Ping'an waved his hand and said calmly:
"It's just a matter of convenience, it doesn't have to be like this."
Nangong Wan said seriously:
"Si Chen may not care, but I, Tingxue Tower, have benefited a lot. Wan'er has kept this kindness in mind and has always wanted to repay her, but she suffers from not knowing the identity of her benefactor who took action that night."
While speaking, she could not hide the wonder in her beautiful eyes.
Although they had speculated that day that it might be the Immortal Master from Qin Tian Prison who took action, they never thought that the person who destroyed "Juxian Manor" was actually the young genius who had gained fame in the past.
I still remember that at that time, Ji Sichen had not yet broken through the ninth level and was still stuck at the peak of Qi cultivation, but he was already able to kill people beyond the level.
Nangong Wan had no doubt that even if he tried his best, he would not be a match for the young man in front of him.
Thinking about the power behind it, the tip of the iceberg of the strength revealed by the Qixia Town group... The eyes of the helmsman who ranked high on the Jianghu beauty list flickered, and he suddenly gritted his teeth and said:
"I heard that Xuelou came to Yuhang this time. It was just a matter of convenience to capture the traitors. The real purpose was other. It's just that it's hard to explain in a few words. If Si Chen doesn't give up, he can go to my stronghold in the city and meet face to face if he has time later. tell."
Then, an address was given.
"Yeah?" Ji Ping'an was a little surprised. He didn't know what kind of medicine this woman was selling in her gourd. He said without comment:
"knew."
Immediately, he said again:
"Please come in, Mrs. Fang. I have something to explain to her."
Although Nangong Wan was curious, she was a smart woman and did not ask any more questions. She bowed Yingying and turned around to leave.
After a while, the door of the wing opened, and Fang Ling, who was pale and breathless, walked in with complicated eyes:
"Mr. Li..."
Ji Pingan looked at the woman with a smile and said:
"I know what you want to ask. My true identity is a star officer who went out to practice in Qintian Prison, and I have a few connections with Tingxuelou."
Qin Tianjian... Xingguan... Fang Ling's aura weakened and she looked in a daze.
For a martial arts warrior like her in the Qi-nurturing realm, the five major sects are quite far away from her.
In other words, Jianghu people naturally have feelings of inferiority and awe towards practitioners who come from large sects.
Ji Pingan continued:
"I have fully investigated your son's disappearance. The events involved are too deep to explain in detail. I have repelled the person who kidnapped him, and he is now under the protection of the Academy. I intend to take your son to the imperial prison. , I don’t know what Madam Fang wants.”
Fang Ling was in a daze for a while, worried about the incident Fang Shijie was involved in, and also surprised by Ji Ping'an's inquiry.
She said nonchalantly: "Shijie...can he be a star officer?"
Ji Ping'an nodded: "Of course, as long as he is willing."
Fang Ling said: "Then Tingxue Tower..."
Ji Pingan said indifferently:
"The Jianghu matter has been settled. I, the Heavenly Supervisor, will not meddle in your Jianghu grievances. However, for the sake of your son, I can guarantee your life. Next, are you going to surrender and let them deal with you, or will you? If you continue to resist and try to find a way out, I will not interfere. Of course, before that, if you want to see your son, I can satisfy you."
Fang Ling was silent for a moment, but unexpectedly said:
"There is no need to meet. Mr. Li just came to the rescue. The woman is very grateful. I made a big mistake in the past. I am ashamed of my master and the sect, and I should bear this sin. As for Shijie... If Mr. Li does not give up, I will Keep him by your side, and in the future... if there is a chance, it will not be too late to meet again."
Ji Ping'an was slightly surprised:
"We really haven't seen each other?"
Fang Ling hesitated for a moment, but still shook her head vigorously and forced a smile:
"If he's gone, please tell him that I will go out of the hospital and go back to my parents' home."
It was probably because he was worried that people in Tingxue Tower would see Fang Shijie's appearance and get angry and cause trouble for him... Ji Ping'an had a clear eye and guessed the reason why Fang Ling refused to meet.
He nodded and said, "That's fine."
Fang Ling bowed deeply and said:
"A civilian woman cannot repay Mr.'s kindness."
Ji Ping'an waved his hand: "It's not a favor."
Fang Ling suddenly stared at him and said:
"That day at the gathering place of the Four Holy Sects in the east city, the man who rescued the civilian woman must have been my husband. Naturally, it is considered a favor. If there is an opportunity, I will repay her."
Now, it was Ji Ping'an's turn to be a little surprised.
But Fang Ling simply turned around, walked out of the wing, said a few words to Nangong Wan, entered the room and packed up briefly, then picked up her bags and left with everyone in Tingxue Tower.
Crisp and neat, free and easy, unlike ordinary people.
After the people left, the air in the room suddenly became distorted. Little Fatty tore off the invisibility talisman on his forehead, revealing his figure bit by bit.
The round and lovely face did not show the excitement of being freed from the clutches of the woman, but instead felt a little emotional and sighed:
"What a strange woman."
Ji Pingan joked:
"Can't bear to leave? Why don't you catch up and say goodbye?"
Fang Shijie said angrily:
"I have ambitions in all directions, but I just want to occupy this woman's son's body. After all, I can't bear it."
Ji Ping'an shook his head and said:
"If you hadn't come, the original child would have died due to various accidents. However, I do suspect that Fang Ling actually guessed something, but he just didn't want to mention it.
Do you really think that a mother would not notice a child's sudden change in temperament? "
He remembered that many days ago, Fang Ling had bumped into him. He hesitated and wanted to divination something, but finally gave up.
Looking back now, I am afraid that I had doubts at that time.
Fang Shijie was silent for a moment and exhaled deeply:
"Phew. Forget it...it's all over. Anyway, I will be free next. Did you predict this scene earlier?"
"That's right." Ji Pingan nodded vaguely.
He did see this part of the picture from the astrological results.
Now, Fang Ling was taken back to Tingxuelou headquarters for confinement. For her, it was atonement, and for Fang Shijie, it was also relief, the best of both worlds.
As for some finishing work, it is not difficult.
The worst case scenario is that Fang Ling returns to her parents' home and temporarily fosters her son with the tenants as a little apprentice. Even if the neighbors are surprised and Fang Shijie explains it, there won't be any problem.
"National Master, it's time to tell me how to solve the problem of my body!"
Fang Shijie quickly got rid of his little melancholy and said impatiently.
Ji Ping'an smiled and said:
"Don't worry, since you want to follow me and get involved in the martial arts world in the future, you must have an identity and come here."
…
…
"Da da da."
When Yu Yu rode his little white horse and broke into Laoliu Street, he went straight to Yi Jingzhai amidst the surprised eyes of the neighbors.
When he got off his horse and rushed into the store door with the "Closed" sign, he kicked open the back door leading to the small courtyard.
I saw two butts lying on the roof of the yard.
One is big and strong, the other is small and straight.
"Huang He? Yaoyao? What are you doing?" Yu Yu looked confused and asked loudly.
On the roof, Huang He and Mu Yaoyao, who were lying down watching the show, trembled and slid down from the roof, smiling at Yu Yu:
"The saint (sister) is back?"
Then he explained:
"There were a lot of Jianghu people nearby just now, rushing to go to the landlord. We just left, let's watch the excitement."
What a mess... Why didn't I see it... Yu Yu was at a loss, and then he remembered his great discovery, excitedly dropped his questions, and turned around:
"Where's Ji Ping'an? He should be back early."
Huang He said "Oh" and said:
"Young master came back this morning. I thought the saint would return later. But she went out after noon."
Yu Yu snorted, raised his white chin, and said proudly:
"Then he's missing out on something big!"
event?
When the two of them were at a loss, they saw the side door being pushed open with a creak, and Ji Ping'an walked in with a smile and asked:
"What's the big deal?"
Surprise appeared on Yu Yu's delicate and pink face, his little nose wrinkled, and he hummed:
"You came back at the right time."
Watching Ji Pingan approaching, the girl with a slim figure and good looks raised a proud smile on her lips and said mysteriously:
"There has been another murder of cultivators outside the city! I suspect that a reborn person is involved!"
Huang He and Mu Yaoyao were shocked, looked at each other and pricked up their ears.
Ji Ping'an blinked: "Oh?"
Yu Yu nodded vigorously, stood in the courtyard, and started gesticulating with his hands:
"When this saint came back, she ran into a destroyed caravan. There were corpses all over the ground, and it was still hot. It was obviously the work of practitioners, and the most important thing is that there was a large number of people hidden in the caravan. The soldiers of the Eastern Army Mansion..."
Then, the girl beamed with joy and vividly recounted her experiences and speculations.
He didn't notice that Ji Ping'an had a strange look in his eyes.
At the end, he clenched his little fist, gave it a heavy blow, and said with a serious face:
"I think this is an important clue, and it may involve a conflict between the Dadong Army and an unknown force."
Huang He and Mu Yaoyao also had serious expressions:
"Sir, what do you think about such a thing?"
Ji Ping'an looked at the saint:
"No one knows about this, right?"
Yu Yu was very proud, with his arms akimbo and head held high, he straightened up and faced A with provocative eyes:
"Do you think I would make that kind of stupid mistake? Everyone who saw this scene was fooled by me. I've also dealt with the traces there. I'm sure to get ahead of the government."
Ji Pingan nodded appreciatively and said happily:
"That's good. Your guess is not wrong. It was indeed the people from the military government who captured the reborn person, but they were blocked by the new force 'Human World' on the way. Fortunately, I arrived in time and intercepted the person. return……"
Then, he briefly described what happened.
Huang He said in surprise:
"Sir, are you saying that a new force formed by the reborn people has begun to snatch people? Wait, the one who was caught will not be..."
Mu Yaoyao opened her mouth wide and continued:
"That little fat guy."
They thought of Fang Ling's invitation in the morning.
Correspondingly, the saint standing next to her seemed to have been struck by a petrification spell. She froze on the spot, like a paper figure in an anime that suddenly lost its color.
He still kept his posture with his hands on his hips, but there was no trace of pride in him.
A gust of autumn wind blew by, and the fallen leaves swirled and blew over the girl's head. She opened her mouth and stammered:
"You already knew about this?"
She suddenly became frustrated, like a deflated rubber ball, and slumped down in her chair, feeling hopeless.
Ji Ping'an smiled, sat in the wicker chair slowly and said:
"yes."
The neighbor's chubby boy turned out to be a reborn person...and we never found out...Huang He was stunned.
Ji Pingan added:
"By the way, the landlord is not an ordinary person, but a monk from Tingxuelou."
Then, he recounted the story shared by Nangong Wan.
Ah, this... that shrew is also a practitioner... Mu Yaoyao was dumbfounded, and then said curiously:
"What about the little fat man? Who is he?"
The snack foodie's question touched on the concerns of the three of them, and they looked over at the same time, expecting an answer.
Ji Ping'an lightly snapped his fingers.
The courtyard door creaked and was pushed open again. The first-generation God Emperor, who was only seven or eight years old and looked like a child, walked in with a mature look on his face and a smile.
Chao Jipingan nodded, then glanced at the three of them in turn, and said with a smile:
"Let's get to know each other formally. You may have heard my name before. I was the thirteenth general of the Great Zhou Dynasty."
Thirteen divine generals?
The three people present were stunned at the same time. Yu Yu looked surprised and Mu Yaoyao's eyes were blank.
Huang He is worthy of being a former "doctor" with a solid knowledge base, and he lost his voice:
"According to legend, in the past, His Majesty the First God-Emperor raised an army together with the Imperial Master, and gathered many masters under his banner. Among them, the twelve who were the strongest and had the most military exploits were later awarded the title of Twelve Divine Generals, such as Chen Xuanwu The general was among them.
But few people in the world know that besides these twelve people, there is actually one of the thirteen divine generals. It is said that he was a child picked up by the God Emperor from the pile of dead people in the city where they were slaughtered. He was named by the Imperial Master because of his amnesia. 'Adou'.
With his natural divine power, he first followed the God-Emperor, and then he simply worshiped the God-Emperor as his teacher and was personally taught by the God-Emperor. Unfortunately, historical records indicate that shortly after he was promoted to the throne, he died in an accident on the battlefield... and also died young, His merits were not enough, so he was not officially listed as the Thirteenth Divine General. "
Adou... Yu Yu chewed on this name and his eyes lit up:
"I have also read this record, but there are not many records in the history books. You...are the disciple of the God Emperor, Adou...senior?"
When the saint read out the last two words, she felt a little awkward.
Fang Shijie smiled and nodded: "Exactly."
Adou!
This is the new vest that Ji Ping'an arranged for the God Emperor.
The logic is simple:
The God-Emperor has been captured after all. Although the news has not spread yet, it will be exposed sooner or later.
In addition, if he wants to follow Ji Ping'an and form a force together, he must have an identity.
Instead of covering it up, it is better to use the trick and simply take advantage of this incident to reveal the identity of the "Reborn One".
But the true identity of the "God Emperor" was too sensitive. After much deliberation, inspired by his disguise as the "National Preceptor", Ji Pingan simply slapped his head and asked the God Emperor to pretend to be the "reincarnation of Adou".
This has several advantages:
First, Adou is a real god general in history who can withstand investigation. Although his talent was good, he died young, so his reputation is not great.
Even if the major forces knew about it, his importance would be slightly higher than that of "Xie Wensheng". Even Emperor Yuan Qing would not fight over a young man who died young.
Secondly, the God-Emperor knew Adou very well and would not reveal any flaws. Even if it aroused suspicion, he could still withstand temptation.
Moreover, A Dou died early and had no descendants... This meant that he would be alone after his rebirth and would have little trouble, so he could naturally join the Qin Tianjian camp.
Third, and the most crucial point, Adou learned from the first-generation God-Emperor and practiced the same martial arts and martial arts. After putting on this vest, if the God-Emperor can practice in the future, he can use his power honestly.
In Ji Ping'an's opinion, it is the best disguise.
As for whether the real "Adou" is also reborn...only God knows. He won't meet him for a while, so he will use this vest first.
The worst-case scenario is that when we meet the real "Adou" in the future, the God-Emperor will die again... Anyway, he will be resurrected once and become familiar the second time.
In the small courtyard, the three of them were surprised to see the child admitting it himself.
Mu Yaoyao couldn't hide her curiosity and walked around the God Emperor several times, her eyes widened with admiration on her face:
"Adou...Senior, have you really followed the God Emperor and the Imperial Master? Are you really a reborn person? You are so powerful and you disguise yourself so well, I didn't even notice it."
Fang Shijie's mouth twitched.
I don’t know if this counts as a compliment.
Yu Yu and Huang He were not much better. On the one hand, they were curious about the historical figure "Adou".
In addition, it is curiosity about the "reborn person".
Well, although everyone has seen reborn people before, such as those who were cursed to kill Sanren, they only had one fight, and they were different from the living ones in front of them.
He kept asking and was thrown all kinds of questions.
Especially the two female creatures were overflowing with curiosity. If they had not considered "respecting the elderly", they would even have the urge to pinch the chubby cheeks of the God Emperor.
Ji Pingan coughed and said:
"Senior Adou has no friends, and now he is trapped in the body of a child, making it difficult to practice. Next, he will temporarily stay with us to find a way to break the shackles and restore his cultivation as soon as possible. And it just so happens that the next step in my original plan Target, there is a chance to help him.”
"Goal? What goal?" Yu Yu looked confused.
Huang He and Mu Yaoyao's eyes lit up, remembering Ji Ping'an's previous words to help them improve their strength quickly.
Fang Shijie pricked up his ears and quickly sat down on the stone bench under the tree in the small courtyard. The four of them sat around the round table and looked at Ji Ping'an with bright eyes.
Ji Ping'an smiled, and when his appetite whetted, he said slowly:
"Do you know the legend of the 'Qianyuan Treasure House'?"
Qianyuan Treasure House?
Everyone was startled when they suddenly heard this name.
Immediately, Fang Shijie was the first to react. His eyes lit up at first, and then he frowned:
"Are you going to open a treasure house? But apart from some yellow and white things, what's left in it? Wasn't it all half-waste back then?"
"What are you talking about?"
Yu Yu was confused. She never liked reading. Although she was forced to read a lot of books, her response was very slow.
Mu Yaoyao only had the words "yellow and white things" in her mind.
Dr. Huang said in surprise:
"Could it be the tomb of the Zhennan King of Daqian? It is said that when the Daqian dynasty ruled the Central Plains in the past, near Yuhang...oh, it was still called Qiantang at that time, there was a prince from the Qianyuan royal family who practiced hard all his life. He was greedy for power in the mortal world, and was obsessed with cultivating the Tao. He attracted a large number of Qi practitioners as disciples. This person did have some Taoism, but he was unable to enter the sky-viewing world before his death."
"In his twilight years, he also realized that his talents were limited, and he was afraid that he would never make any progress in his life. In desperation, he sought out the ancient 'Corpse Execution Immortal' practice method, but was deceived by some Qi practitioner. He built a mausoleum in preparation for relying on the terrain of Jiangnan. , build a mausoleum and seek immortality after death.
Not only did the entire mausoleum become a formation hidden in reality, but a large amount of money and even magic weapons were transferred as funerary objects, which attracted people from later generations to explore and try to find it. It was called a treasure house, the so-called 'Qianyuan Treasure House'. prototype. "
"What happened next?" Mu Yaoyao held her chin in her hands and looked like she was listening to the story.
Huang He spread his hands:
"I don't know what happened afterwards. It seems that I experienced something, but the relevant records are very vague."
Fang Shijie glanced at her and said calmly:
"Later, the wise, mighty, domineering, and charismatic God-Emperor and his national advisers raised an army and led the rebel army into Qiantang. Suffering from a lack of military spending, they found a way to find the tomb of King Zhennan and took the money inside. Some of it comes out and enriches the people."
Ah this... everyone looked at each other.
I was shocked by Adou God General's shameless statement. He was clearly robbing tombs, and he was talking about "returning wealth to the people"...
Fang Shijie continued:
"However, there is indeed something in the magic circle of that treasure house. Even the great monks can't see the entrance, so it was not completely destroyed. After the establishment of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it was not touched again... right? It may still be there today. But The remnants inside are all left over from the past, so they are of little use to practitioners."
He was a little confused as to why the Imperial Master suddenly mentioned this.
If everyone is ready to raise troops and conquer the world again, then digging out the Qianyuan treasure house may be of some use, but it does not seem to be of much help to the current situation.
And everyone suddenly understood why the records about the "Qianyuan Treasure House" were vague.
Apparently, the God-Emperor and the Imperial Advisor teamed up to rob tombs to raise military expenses. However, they felt that this incident was disgraceful and tarnished the image of the God-Emperor, so they deliberately erased the relevant records.
Secondly, it may also be to conceal the location of the treasure house.
Therefore, only a very small number of core members of the rebel army, such as "Adou God General", knew this big secret.
In the eyes of the world, I'm afraid they don't know that the "Qianyuan Treasure House" has been stolen long ago...
Ji Ping'an smiled, shook his head and said:
"If it were just the treasure house from back then, it would indeed be of little value, but what if I said that before the Imperial Master passed away in the past, he had secretly sneaked back in and left something there?"
Everyone suddenly looked up.
Yu Yu, Huang He and Mu Yaoyao's eyes lit up and they looked at each other, showing strong curiosity.
As for why Ji Ping'an knew this secret... it was normal for him to be a close disciple of the Imperial Master.
Fang Shijie was also stunned for a moment. He rounded his eyes first and stared at Ji Ping'an with an "Old Yin Bi" look, as if to say:
As expected of you!
When he thought about it, this was undoubtedly the result of the premonition that the stars would return after his death, so he made early preparations.
Immediately, the words "well done" almost blurted out.
"So, when are we going to rob the tomb?"
Fang Shijie stood up, gearing up and eager to try:
"The things left by the Imperial Master can help me practice again, right?"
Ji Pingan said angrily:
"Why are you in a hurry? It's so late today and I have to meet someone later."
