Hearing this voice, Old Man Mi trembled all over. The smile on his face suddenly froze, and he turned back to look out the window.
An old man was already standing beside the bed, covering his mouth with a handkerchief and coughing, while looking at him with a half-smile.
If Zu An or Pei Mianman were here, they would definitely recognize this as the mysterious and powerful man from the Wei family, Wei Wei.
The moment he saw the other party, Old Man Mi's expression changed rapidly, but in the end he let out a long breath: "I had been worried about the arrival of this day, but when it finally arrived, I breathed a sigh of relief. It was not as nervous as I thought.
"
Wei Wei smiled slightly: "That's how things are in the world. The most painful thing is not that something bad is coming, but waiting for the eve before it comes."
Old Man Mi chuckled: "I didn't expect you still like to talk about truth after so many years."
Wei Wei didn't feel dissatisfied: "We haven't seen each other for so many years, and we are all getting old. Speaking of which, you are really hard to find. Over the years, the palace has spent a lot of manpower and material resources, but there is no trace of you.
, I didn’t catch your trap until not long ago.”
Old Man Mi asked curiously: "How did you find me?"
"Some time ago, there was a big competition between the Chu and Yuan families here in Mingyue City. Someone reported that the movement technique used by Zu An was very similar to your Sunflower Phantom, so we guessed that you were probably here." Wei Yan replied.
Old Man Mi snorted: "Sure enough, it was that little gangster who leaked my identity. I told him not to reveal it in front of others, but he still disobeyed me. If I had known this, I shouldn't have passed the Sunflower Phantom to him!"
The anger value from Mi Lianying is +760!
At this time, Zu An on the other side was stunned when he saw this message in the background. What is going on?
So he planned to go over to Old Man Mi's place to check. He had never been able to figure out what the other party's purpose was. Recently, the sense of crisis had become more and more obvious, so he still had to find out the matter as soon as possible before he could rest assured.
Of course, he wouldn't go to the door rashly to inquire. He would definitely investigate from a distance.
Because he was wary of the opponent's cultivation, he directly used "Mingjing Feitai" to hide his aura.
He saw a person in his yard from a distance, it was Wei Wei. He couldn't help but feel frightened and didn't dare to come any closer. He hid in the dark and stared at that side quietly.
In Old Man Mi's yard, Wei Yan said with some confusion: "Speaking of which, I'm also curious as to why you would teach a little gangster your janitor skills to someone who is not a relative. It's really not like your past temperament."
"There is no reason. I just saw that he was quite filial to me, so I taught him on a whim one day. Now that I think about it, it was still careless." Of course, Old Man Mi would not tell him that Zu An was the cauldron he had chosen. Of course he couldn't before seizing the body.
Let something happen to him.
"I see," Wei Wei smiled slightly, "Fortunately, otherwise it would be really difficult to find you."
Hearing this, Zu An felt a little embarrassed. It turned out that it was his own fault that caused Old Man Mi to be discovered by his enemies. No wonder he was so angry just now.
"With this alone, it's admirable that you were able to find me so quickly." Old Man Mi said with emotion.
The two of them chatted like old friends, but both parties knew that there was murderous intent in the air.
"It's not that fast," Wei Wei replied. "Because I was afraid of alerting the enemy, I didn't dare to question Zu An directly, so I had been secretly investigating in the past few days. I started with people around him, and first found the academy, and then
I've tried everyone in the academy, but I can't find any trace of you among them."
Zu An remembered that the teachers in the college some time ago were all bruised and swollen. It turned out to be this guy's work.
Speaking of which, I am lucky, otherwise if he had directly captured me and forced him to question me, how would I have escaped?
Old Man Mi couldn't help but said: "There are so many masters in the academy, but they allow you to play with ease. It seems that Eunuch Wei has made great progress in his cultivation over the years."
"Except for Jiang Luofu, the others can't be considered experts." Wei Wei snorted, thinking of the woman with beautiful legs in stockings that night. If he wasn't a eunuch, he would probably stop seeing her.
My heart beats constantly.
"That's true." Mr. Mi nodded, obviously agreeing with his judgment, "Why didn't you come to the Chu family to investigate as soon as possible?"
Wei Wei explained: "I originally thought that Zu An was chosen as the son-in-law by the Chu family because of your teachings. I subconsciously thought that you were outside the Chu family, so I checked the academy first."
Zu An was very angry when he heard this. Do I need other skills to be chosen as son-in-law by the Chu family?
This guy is ugly, so I never understand how proactive those women will be in front of a handsome guy like me.
"I see." Old Man Mi suddenly understood, and then asked, "By the way, the emperor has been in good health in recent years."
Zu An's eyes suddenly widened. Old Man Mi is indeed related to the emperor. He has been in this world for so long and knows that there are countless masters in this world, but there is no dispute about the number one master, that is the current emperor.
Old Man Mi works as an errand under him, no wonder his cultivation level is so high.
"Xiao Yingzi, you are still thinking about the emperor," Wei Wei sneered, "Thanks to you, the emperor is in very bad health."
Old Man Mi was surprised: "How could it be possible? The emperor's cultivation is so great, why is he in poor health?"
Wei Wei snorted: "You know what you're asking, no matter how high you are in this world, you can't escape the fate of the five gods and humans. That's why the emperor sent you to lead people to find the "Phoenix Nirvana Sutra" which is said to lead to eternal life after cultivation.
Who knew you would never come back."
Zu An was shocked. Can he gain eternal life by practicing the "Phoenix Nirvana Sutra"?
After being in this world for so long, he also learned some common sense, that is, no matter how high your cultivation level is, you are still afraid of the knife of time. No matter how amazing and talented you are in history, you will eventually turn into a stick.
Loess, I have never heard of anyone who can live forever.
Could it be that the "Phoenix Nirvana Sutra" really has this effect?
No wonder it is so difficult to practice, even if you need a huge number of vitality fruits to advance to a small level.
"Originally, the Emperor thought that you all died because you failed to find the Phoenix Nirvana Sutra. Everyone was sad for you for a long time," Wei Wei changed the subject, "But later those who investigated the incident discovered something fishy."
"Although you designed it very cleverly, you made each body of the treasure hunting team missing a body part, pretending that it was attacked and eaten by a ferocious beast, and then cleverly put together an extra body to replace you," Wei Yan said with a hint of smile on his face.
With a look of admiration, "It's just that your body is missing your head, which inevitably arouses suspicion. Therefore, the investigation team never closed the case until they later learned from a young eunuch who once served you that there is a hidden characteristic behind you. We
Only then was it confirmed that the corpse was a fake."
Old Man Mi sighed: "I see, I was already very careful, but it's a pity that I couldn't see the place behind me, so I made such an omission."
"This is called Skynet's meticulousness." Wei Yan showed a smile. It was obvious that he had been pursuing this matter for many years, and now he finally had the result.
Zu An in the distance finally understood the whole story. It was probably Old Man Mi who led his people to find the legendary "Phoenix Nirvana Sutra", and then got greedy and killed other people who were traveling with him, pretending to be annihilated.
But it was still discovered.
He couldn't help but admire him, Old Man Mi was so brave, he even dared to covet the emperor's things.
Old Man Mi sighed: "Actually, the reason why I did this back then was because I couldn't find the "Phoenix Nirvana Sutra" and I was worried about being liquidated after returning to the palace. In addition, I was tired of the intrigues in the palace, so I came up with this golden cicada's escape from the shell.
Plan, why should Eunuch Wei press so hard?"
"You didn't find the Phoenix Nirvana Sutra?" Wei Wei sneered, "Do you think I'm a three-year-old child? If you hand over the things, I can beg for your life in front of the emperor."
----
I can't bear it anymore. I have to wait for the third update tomorrow. I have to lament that my body is really not as good as when I was young. At that time, I stayed up late playing games until midnight without any problem. Now I am very sleepy at this time.
