In the dark of night, Mr. Jiang did not go straight to Li Silang's small mill, but came to Beicheng. He knew very well that Li Xiu was not easy to deal with, and he needed to know more about Li Xiu, so he decided to start with Xia Jianxiu.
Mr. Hua had the same idea. Sure enough, he followed behind quietly, very cautiously, and did not exude the aura of a strong man. He indeed deceived Mr. Jiang's senses and came to Beicheng.
The North City is more prosperous than the South City, with many courtyard villas. To say that the most prosperous place in Hancheng is of course Dongcheng. After all, it is the closest to the academy. The people living in that area are either rich or noble. But when it comes to the number of experts, Dongcheng is not as good as Beicheng. The former are mostly students or their relatives who are close to the college, and they are mostly people who come here to study; the latter is different. People with good intentions like Mr. Jiang and Mr. Hua are all hanging out in Beicheng.
A big tree attracts the wind. In recent years, the reputation of Hanchen Academy has surpassed that of Taiqing Palace and Fenglei Pavilion. In addition, it has been committed to reform and opened its doors widely, and has gained extraordinary humanistic luck. It is not so much that there are many people who come here because of admiration, but more of those who are jealous. A lot, this is inevitable.
Fortunately, for the time being, Hanchen Academy still has enough strength to suppress Sifang Xiaoxiao. Even if a force like the Lord wants to recruit talents, and Mr. Hua and Mr. Jiang want to come here to cut leeks and get a share of the pie, no When absolutely necessary, you will not use force, you must plan carefully, otherwise, if you are not careful, everything will be destroyed, and the humanistic dragon vein that is about to be formed will be beaten and only a piece of chicken feathers will be left!
Different from the situation in the Taiqing Palace, Hanchen Academy is now popular among the people and has good relations with all parties. Many people recognize it as a sacred place for humanity, especially young people from all over the world! It is worth mentioning that among them are some young people from all over the country who have changed their appearance and come to see the beauty of this newly emerged so-called humanistic holy land. This is a force that cannot be ignored.
Both black and white, everyone has a background. If one is not good, he will be targeted. Even if it is verbal criticism, it is no small matter. It is often more effective than force deterrence! With such a humanistic destiny, who wouldn’t want to be the dark horse? Some people are close to the academy, while others have ulterior motives and use unscrupulous means, but in fact they all have the same goal!
Mr. Hua and Mr. Jiang each represent a huge force that is one of the best in the world. They have the ambition to restore the world. Their nature is different from that of the Lord. They need to win the hearts of the people even more. The human heart is a double-edged sword. It depends on how you play it. If you play it well, Hanchen Academy will suffer the consequences. Otherwise, it will only make Hanchen Academy accumulate more and more abundant capital.
This is why Mr. Hua and Mr. Jiang both set their sights on Li Silang. It is not easy to defeat Hanchen Academy. The only way is to start from the inside and divide it. When they join in, there will be almost no changes. No matter how great Pang Gu is, he can't save it. !
Now that Li Xiu had arrived halfway, it had indeed become a stumbling block for them. Of course, in their eyes, it was nothing more than that. People like them would never put a casual cultivator like Li Xiu on the same level as them. Otherwise, they would not come to Beicheng this time, but would directly summon experts to kill Li Xiu. Now, they still want to recruit Li Xiu. After all, Li Xiu's luck should not be underestimated. However, it is still nothing more than that. Li Xiu just happened by the way while they were looking for Madman. A benefit.
Beicheng.
Xia Jianxiu quickly came to a mansion and handed him a greeting card. After waiting for a while, the concierge came back and introduced him into the mansion!
The interior of the mansion is not magnificent, but the decoration is simple and simple. Every time Xia Jianxiu comes here, he will become very calm. He knows very well that the layout and decoration of these buildings are not simple. However, Xia Jianxiu now understood all this and silently followed the concierge straight to the inner courtyard.
From a distance, it could be seen that the lights in the inner courtyard were brightly lit, and there was already a gray-haired old man waiting in front of the door, which gave Xia Jianxiu a lot of face.
The concierge stopped at the door and stretched out his hand to invite Xia Jianxiu in, but he backed out.
The old man was full of energy and looked at Xia Jianxiu with a smile on his face.
"Immortal, it's really presumptuous of me to visit late at night!" Xia Jianxiu said apologetically, cupping his fists.
The old man, the white-headed immortal, waved his hand and said: "That's wrong. Brother Xia, you came at the right time. I was just about to go find you, but because of the darkness of the night, I didn't expect that you and I were in touch with each other. For a moment, it was really... It’s a great kindness!”
"Oh?" Even in Xia Jianxiu's state of mind, he felt flattered when he heard such words, but soon, his expression became slightly unnatural. After all, he and the white-headed immortal were not that close. After thinking about it, I couldn't help but think about my encounter today. Could it be that... it was for Li Xiu?
This cannot be said to be that Xia Jianxiu is too sensitive, but that not long after he left the small mill, he was attacked by the Yuanying old monster, and it was difficult not to contact Li Xiu. But he still pretended to be calm and asked in a strange voice, "I wonder why the immortal is looking for me?"
"Hahaha, don't be anxious, don't be anxious!" The white-headed immortal laughed while stroking his beard. He was observing his words, and it could be said that he saw everything about Xia Jianxiu's reaction. Secretly, this was indeed the case. While laughing, he extended Xia Jianxiu's hand and led him into the main hall. Although Xia Jianxiu was suspicious, he couldn't confirm whether this person's intention was as he suspected, so he followed him into the main hall.
The hall was brightly lit, and there were actually three people there. Two graceful girls were serving a young Taoist priest.
The young Taoist priest wore a white moon Taoist robe and Gangyi, a lotus crown on his head, a fly whisk in his hand, and his master's shoes on his feet. He was very elegant, and his appearance was dignified, and he was spotless. Although the two girls serving him were conservatively dressed, they had a charming air about them. One was rubbing the young Taoist priest's shoulders and back, and the other girl was beating the young Taoist priest's thigh, looking like a bird. The attitude of relying on others. But Xia Jianxiu's expression changed. Those two girls turned out to be in the late stages of Jin Dan. Their techniques of rubbing shoulders, backs and legs were obviously very clever. If they were ordinary people, they would probably be able to get massages and massages from them. It can prolong life.
What's even more terrifying is that the young Taoist priest can't see the depth at all, and the aura of his cultivation is as deep as the sea. Such a powerful aura, with Xia Jianxiu's eyesight, seemed to have never been seen in his life, and could only be matched by Pang Gu, the mysterious old dean of Hanchen Academy whom he met once when he passed the inner sect test. Even the aura of this young Taoist priest is obviously more pure and domineering.
When did such a strong man come to Hancheng?
There was also another important message that was captured by Xia Jianxiu. Although he was shocked at the moment, he did not panic, so he did not miss any message. He found that the young Taoist priest was sitting at the main seat of the main hall, and four plates of exquisite snacks and fragrant tea were placed on the table.
Who on earth is worthy of such a humiliation by the Bald-headed Immortal? Based on Xia Jianxiu's understanding of the White-headed Immortal, this man has a strong background and is also a spiritual master with perfect golden elixir. He is only one step away from the Nascent Soul.
"Well, you're not bad!" The young Taoist priest said directly, and then he waved his hand to signal the two girls to step back. It wasn't until the two girls left the main hall that he glanced at the White-headed Immortal and signaled that the White-headed Immortal should leave. Weng Lai spoke. He seemed quite tired. He changed to a more relaxed posture and leaned back on the big chair.
The posture of the white-headed immortal man was very low, very low. This low posture was something that Xia Jianxiu could clearly feel after he walked into the main hall. There was no need for unnecessary movements, just like a soldier in front of the king. In the sky, and one in the earth.
"Brother Xia is here this time. Please allow me to guess that there should be two important antiquities that I have seen. I wonder if my guess is correct?" the Bald Immortal said directly.
Xia Jianxiu was really shocked, but if he was not careful at this moment, his life would be in danger immediately. How could he dare to be vague? Without thinking, he said: "The Immortal is really smart, and he can see through the purpose of this trip at a glance, but I don't know how the Immortal guessed it?"
"It can't be said. Brother Xia, you are a smart man. You don't tell secrets in front of others. I am willing to pay a lot of money to buy the antiquities in your hands. I know that brother, you have been troubled and frustrated by the way of integrating the medical sword. Apart from the heavy money, , I am even willing to add another magic technique that can solve your urgent need. By then you will definitely be able to shine in Hanchen Academy. I wonder if you are tempted by my conditions?" The Bald-headed Immortal looked confident of winning. expression.
Xia Jianxiu said expressionlessly: "The offer made by the Immortal Old Man is indeed hard to refuse, but I have a question. Can you clarify my doubts first?"
"Please tell me!" said the Bald-headed Immortal.
Xia Jianxiu said: "Xia knew that as long as he said the word 'no' from my mouth, he would be dead and dismembered immediately. But this is what I am confused about, why didn't you just take it away? You have to spend a lot of money and a precious magic technique to buy what I have in my hand. Isn’t this unnecessary?”
"Brother Xia, what are you talking about? Is this the kind of person who takes things by force?" The Bald-Headed Immortal said in a deep and displeased voice immediately.
Xia Jianxiu nodded and said: "Since the immortal is inconvenient to say it clearly, I don't dare to ask any more questions. The thing is in my hand. You can just take it if you want. In my eyes, it is just an antique. How can you Because something like this hurts the harmony between me and the immortal?"
The white-headed immortal's old eyes shone brightly, and he was immediately pleased with Xia Jianxiu. He said: "This is really a great act of kindness. My brother's actions today will be rewarded with good things in the future. I will never treat you unfairly!"
Xia Jianxiu said: "It's a trivial matter, why do it? Just let me take it and offer it to you!" As he said, he reached out and took out two yellow-covered ancient books in the space law ring. He presented them to the other party with both hands, and his mouth But Li forced a smile and said: "It's already late at night, and there are still distinguished guests coming to the immortal's house. I don't dare to disturb you, so I'll take my leave!"
"Brothers, please help yourself, you and I have a long time to come!" said the Bald-headed Immortal.
Xia Jianxiu didn't stop and retreated.
In the hall, the white-headed immortal respectfully handed two yellow-covered ancient books to the young Taoist priest.
"Huh?" As soon as the young Taoist priest took it in his hand, he seemed to notice something was wrong.
