Liang Yan was extremely happy when the Taixu Gourd was lost and found.
He hurriedly put his consciousness into the gourd and saw that all the flying swords in the Sword-Raising Valley were intact, the golden cicadas were still playing in the valley, and Li Xiaosong was still sleeping. Everything was the same as before.
Liang Yan's tense mind gradually relaxed, and he let out a long breath while standing there.
"Fortunately. It seems that Xuanyuan Potian gave the order not to let others touch my things. He is a saint after all, and he does have some magnanimity!"
Liang Yan thought to himself, then scanned his consciousness, and unexpectedly found his storage ring and wooden house in the Taixu Gourd.
You don't need to think about it to know that this must be Xiaojiu's masterpiece. Before leaving, he took out all his things.
"You are still smart!"
Liang Yan took back the wooden house and the storage ring. He was in a good mood and touched Xiaojiu in the Taixu gourd, with a smile on his face.
At this moment, a white light flashed in the wooden house, and Lao Jin's figure appeared in front of him.
However, he does not look like a golden-haired lion camel now, but has turned into a human form, which is somewhat similar to the face of the crazy lion Taoist.
"Are you Liang Yan?"
Seeing Xiao Jiu and Liang Yan's close appearance, Lao Jin still showed a hint of vigilance on his face, despite his suspicions.
There is no doubt that he and Liang Yan have a telepathic connection, but the Liang Yan in front of him gives him a strange feeling, which is completely different from the previous disguise technique.
"Guaranteed replacement if fake!"
Liang Yan smiled, but the right half of his face was still dark and ferocious, making his smile look a little scary.
"Why do I feel that you are different from the inside out? You are completely the same person as before!" Lao Jin was still a little doubtful.
"I have unlocked the demon in my body. Now my soul has been eroded by the demonic nature, so it is naturally different from before. As for the physical body, this is not my physical body in the first place. It is only through the 'Soul Seed Technique' that my soul can escape first."
Liang Yan gave a simple explanation, and Lao Jin finally understood.
He had a mental connection with Liang Yan, and he knew a little bit about the demon inside his body. After listening to Liang Yan's explanation, he immediately woke up.
"The soul-growing method? It's magical! It can actually allow you to escape from Li Muzhi's hands! Although only the soul came out first, if this news spreads, people will be stunned."
Liang Yan shook his head and said: "Now is not the time to talk about this. We must leave here as soon as possible, and then go to the Prince's Mansion to get the formation-breaking talisman, so that we can go back and rescue my physical body."
"Your injury." Lao Jin frowned.
"I cough, it's nothing serious!" Liang Yan endured the excruciating pain and took a deep breath, but he still couldn't stop coughing violently.
"Stop holding on, sit down first!"
Lao Jin helped Liang Yan sit down in the treasure house, then circulated the spiritual power in his body, put a hand on the back of his heart, and a yellow spiritual light gradually enveloped Liang Yan's body.
Liang Yan knew that he was helping him and did not refuse. With the help of the spiritual power sent by Lao Jin, Liang Yan began to suppress the demonic nature deep in his soul.
As time passed, after about half a cup of tea, the demonic aura on Liang Yan's face gradually faded away, and the right half of his cheek, which was originally as dark as ink, returned to normal.
"Thank you very much!"
After successfully suppressing the demonic nature, Liang Yan secretly breathed a sigh of relief and stood up to thank Lao Jin.
"You and I are in the same boat now. We are both prosperous and devastated. Please don't say thank you again in the future." Lao Jin waved his hand and said.
Liang Yan knew what he meant, nodded slightly and didn't say much.
He tidied up the treasure house, erased all traces of the previous fight, put the defense plan into the storage ring, and put the wooden box back again.
After doing all this, he raised his hand and made a magic spell, and put Lu Sheng's body into the Taixu Gourd.
The entire secret room of the treasure house was restored as before, as if no one had ever entered. Liang Yan carefully checked the surroundings and finally nodded with satisfaction.
Next, Liang Yan opened his storage ring and took out many pills, some to replenish spiritual power and some to restore injuries, and swallowed them all.
After taking the elixir, Liang Yan cleaned away the blood on his body, and then looked at where Lu Sheng was originally lying, with a thoughtful look on his face.
"Lu Sheng is dead. If I go out here alone, I will definitely be suspected."
Just now he had a fierce battle with Lu Sheng, and his life was hanging by a thread. He didn't think about this at all, but now he looked at Lu Sheng who had been killed by him, and he had some reaction.
"In other words, we still need a 'Lu Sheng'?" Lao Jin reacted quickly and caught the key point instantly.
The two of them looked at each other and both understood what the other was thinking. Lao Jin did not hesitate, his spiritual power was circulating in his body, and a khaki glow swept across his body.
The next moment, the man who walked out of the glow had transformed into Lu Sheng.
"How's it going? Is my disguise skills okay?" Lao Jin looked at Liang Yan and chuckled.
"Not bad!"
Liang Yan walked around Lao Jin and checked it carefully with his spiritual consciousness, but found no flaws.
"I didn't expect your disguise skills to be so superb. It should be more than enough to deceive the guards outside the city lord's palace, but if you want to deceive the Peach Blossom Divine General, I'm afraid it's still not possible." Liang Yan expressed his judgment.
"Peach Blossom God General? I won't wait for him to come back!"
Lao Jin shook his head very decisively and said: "I will send you out first, and then I will find a chance to escape alone. Then I will go find your good apprentice, and we will meet at the Wenxiang Chamber of Commerce."
"That's fine."
Liang Yan was not an indecisive person. After hearing Lao Jin's plan, he thought it was the only feasible way at the moment and immediately nodded in agreement.
"Without further ado, I've been delaying here for too much time and I have to leave now!"
Liang Yan took one last look around to make sure there were no mistakes or omissions, and then left the treasure house with the "Lu Sheng" transformed by Lao Jin.
After coming out, he rummaged around in Lu Sheng's storage ring for a while, and soon found the yellow token, injected a spiritual power into it, and then threw it into the air. The bright glow shone all around, and the treasure house
The door slowly closed.
"Walk!"
Liang Yan didn't talk too much and took Lao Jin to the door of the City Lord's Mansion according to his previous memory.
After about half a cup of tea, the two of them arrived at the main entrance to the south again.
"Friend Lu Dao, the defense map has been handed over to you, and my mission has been completed, so I will send you here." Lu Sheng, who was transformed into Lao Jin, laughed, stood at the end of the road, and pretended to say goodbye to Liang Yan.
Wang Zhongyuan, the guard of the south gate, also saw them. At this time, he laughed and said: "I am afraid that Fellow Daoist Lu has taken a fancy to the treasures in the city lord's palace. Why have you been there for so long?"
"General Wang is joking."
Liang Yan laughed and said calmly: "The City Lord's Mansion has been taken over by the Xuanyuan Army. Lu is just an errand boy in front of the Crown Prince. How can he dare to be interested in the treasure of General Peach Blossom?"
"Haha, Wang is just joking, fellow Daoist Lu, don't take it seriously."
Wang Zhongyuan only thought that he was Lu Qian, the prince's subordinate who joined the army, and he did not dare to offend him, so he took the initiative to find a way out for him.
The two exchanged a few polite words, and Liang Yan excused himself to go back to resume his duties. He said goodbye to Wang Zhongyuan and "Lu Sheng" respectively, turned around and left the city lord's mansion, heading to the other side of the avenue.
After leaving the city lord's mansion, Liang Yan felt slightly relieved.
With the Taixu Gourd in hand and all the natal flying swords recovered, Liang Yan felt as if he had taken a reassurance and instantly became calmer.
Although he does not have the blessing of the Sword Infant, with the sharpness of the Mayfly Sword Pill itself, Liang Yan is now confident that as long as he does not encounter a monk in the Tribulation Realm, he can deal with almost anything.
"The next step is to go to the Prince's Mansion to pick up the Formation-Breaking Talisman. General Peach Blossom is really cautious. He will only send his deputy to deliver the Formation-Breaking Talisman to the Prince's Mansion every day when it is almost time for You."
Liang Yan read Lu Qian's memory and knew that in order to unlock the formation, he must use the formation-breaking talisman, and this formation-breaking talisman was disposable, which is why he did not take his body out of the formation immediately.
reason.
At that time, Guo Tu and Lin Yue were watching from outside. It was impossible for him to take his body out directly. When he came out, although he immediately subdued Guo Tu and Lin Yue, he no longer had the formation-breaking talisman in his hand.
Only by using Lu Qian's identity to receive the next formation-breaking talisman can he go back and save his physical body.
However, compared to sneaking into the city lord's palace, going to the prince's palace to collect the formation-breaking talisman is obviously a safer task. After all, he is now the real Lu Qian, and Lu Qian was originally the prince's subordinate.
"Tomorrow at You time, as long as you get the formation-breaking talisman, you will immediately return to where your physical body is. When the time comes, you can save your physical body, and then go to the Wenxiang Chamber of Commerce to find Qianlong and Li Xiran to see if there is any way to suppress the demonic nature in your body."
On the way back to the Prince's Mansion, Liang Yan was already planning the next thing.
"There is also the Jialan Chamber of Commerce. They owe me information about Pure Yang Fire. It's just that I don't dare to go to Pei Xinhai and Xuanyuan Qi now. It seems that this road will not work."
"It is not advisable to stay in Guangling City for a long time. For Li Xiaosong, I will at most wait until the day when the 'Wentai Treasure Fighting Conference' is held. If the scent does not appear on that day, then I can only leave this place and think of other options."
Liang Yan's mind was racing, thinking about the next plan, and before he knew it, he had arrived at the door of the Prince's Mansion.
Because he read Lu Qian's memory, he was familiar with the place. The guards at the door also recognized him. After a brief greeting, he entered the courtyard.
Xuanyuan Qi has newly ascended to the position of crown prince, and the "Wentai Treasure Fighting Conference" is about to be held. He has many things to be busy with and is not in the crown prince's residence now.
After Liang Yan came back, he reported his tasks to the steward of the mansion in a routine manner, and then returned to where he lived, closed the attic door, and did not leave the door, and quietly meditated in the room.
Lu Qian was a bit aloof, and his popularity among Xuanyuan Qi's men was not very good, so after he came back, no other monks came to bother him.
Liang Yan was naturally happy about this and sat quietly in his room to practice. He had nothing to do all night.
Before unitary hour the next day, Lu Qian, whom Liang Yan had transformed into, was already dressed and waiting in the main hall of the Prince's Mansion early.
As soon as Unity Hour arrived, footsteps suddenly came from outside the hall, and then a tall, middle-aged man with a pockmarked face and a long beard walked in from outside the hall.
"Master Li is really punctual. He comes at midnight every day and is never late." Liang Yan stood up and said with a cupped hand to the pockmarked man.
In Lu Qian's memory, this person's surname was Li Minggui. He was good at using a pair of mountain-breaking axes and had mastered the secret skills of the magic sect. He was very difficult to deal with.
"Li is always on time. I don't like waiting for others, and I don't like others waiting for me."
Li Gui's face was cold and emotionless.
He took out a talisman and a medicine bottle from his sleeve, and said calmly: "This is today's formation-breaking talisman and elixir. According to General Li's instructions, feed it to that person at three o'clock every day."
"Lu understands."
Liang Yan nodded. In Lu Qian's memory, Li Gui had to explain himself every time he came, which was so rigid that it was outrageous.
"Thank you for your hard work, General Li. Leave the talismans and elixirs to me."
Liang Yan said and was about to reach out to take it. Unexpectedly, his hand was blocked by Li Gui just as he reached halfway.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, why do I feel that your breath is a little messy? You didn't have this reaction when you came to pick up the elixirs and talismans before. Why do you seem a little excited today?"
Li Gui did not hand the things to Liang Yan, but instead stared at him with narrowed eyes, as if he wanted to see something.
Liang Yan was shocked when he heard this. He never expected that Li Gui's reaction would be so sharp!
When he saw the talisman just now, he thought that he could rescue his physical body immediately, and he felt excited for a moment.
But this excitement was quickly calmed down by him. Liang Yan could be sure that there was absolutely no strangeness on his face, and even his eyes had not changed.
Unexpectedly, even in this case, the pockmarked man in front of me still saw the clues!
"General Li is joking. Lu is ordered by the prince to deliver medicine to Palace Master Liang every day. This is all my responsibility. How can there be any excitement?" Liang Yan laughed and said calmly.
"Yeah?"
Li Gui's eyes were as sharp as a knife, as if he wanted to see through his heart.
"General Lee, what do you mean?"
Facing Li Gui's questioning, Liang Yan did not panic. Instead, he straightened his face and said coldly: "Does General Li still doubt Lu? This job is not rare for Lu! Isn't it because of the relationship between the prince and that Liang Gong?
He had some friendship with the Lord, so he took the initiative to take over the task of delivering medicine, and finally handed it over to me!"
After hearing this, Li Gui's face remained calm and he sneered: "Friend Lu Dao, you are also a sword cultivator! I heard recently that you coveted that person's sword technique, so you took the initiative to take over the task of delivering medicine!
"
"What do you mean!" Liang Yan narrowed his eyes slightly and his face was slightly gloomy.
"What do you mean? Huh! I'm telling you to be honest. That person has a special status. Even General Li Shen doesn't dare to touch him. I hope you stay safe and complete the task of delivering medicine honestly. Don't think about sneaking around.
!”
Li Gui's words did not show any mercy to him. Unfortunately, the "Lu Qian" at this time was not the real Lu Qian. He just laughed and said:
"General Li, Lu doesn't need you to teach him how to do things! If there is nothing else, just leave the elixir and talisman behind, and then please come back!"
Thanks to: Heihei Big Orange for the 6,000-point reward!
Thanks to: Wuliu Hermit for the 6,000-point reward!
