After a detailed investigation, Zhang Yu confirmed that the only one left who was involved with Bi Ming was the disciple named He Li. You can try to trace this line first.
If you can find a breakthrough here, it will save a lot of trouble. If you can't find it, you can find a way elsewhere.
After making up his mind, he summoned the Great Dao Chapter and sent a message to Gao Mo, the Xuanshou of Yiluo Shangzhou, stating that He Li might be involved in a certain incident and that he would send people to inquire about the cause.
Although He Li is only a three-chapter monk, he is now a monk in Yiluoxuan Palace. If you want to inquire about this person, he always has to say hello.
Gao Mo received the summons and quickly replied: "Fellow Taoist, you're welcome. My subordinates can do whatever they want. Gao will take care of the people in the continent and make it as convenient as possible."
Zhang Yu thanked him, calmed down, thought about it briefly, and then flicked his fingers, and a spiritual light fell on Yiluo Shangzhou. In order to ensure that he could find out clearly at once, this time he planned to let Xu Chengtong, who was stationed in Yiluo Shangzhou, take charge of the agency.
this matter.
Go to Yiluo Island and guard your station.
Xu Chengtong was returning from an inspection outside. He had just entered the main stage where he was stationed. He saw a spiritual light coming from the sky and landing on the top of the stage. He felt happy, then his expression became solemn, and he immediately turned into light and escaped to the top of the stage, standing there.
After making up his mind, he straightened his clothes and walked towards the confession room in the main hall.
His disciples were waiting outside the palace gate, and they heard Xu Chengtong's respectful voice coming from inside, "Yes, I will definitely do this well."
One of the disciples wearing a blue robe sighed with emotion: "It's been almost a year, and Teacher finally waited for Shouzheng to explain.
Another shorter disciple said: "Teacher, it's not easy either."
The blue-robed disciple said: "If you ask me, Teacher does things very well."
The short disciple asked puzzledly: "How can I say this, even if it is done well?"
The blue-robed disciple said: "If a person's achievements are mediocre all the time, but occasionally he can do well, he will definitely get praise and praise from the superiors. But if a person can accomplish things, there will be no troubles and no surprises. On the contrary, you will
Occasionally if you make a mistake, you will be scolded, and your superiors will think you are slacking off.
The short disciple nodded and said: "It makes sense." Then he said: "But according to what you said, senior brother, would it be better if the teacher was not so serious about his work and only took it seriously occasionally?"
The disciple in blue robe sighed: "It's too late for Teacher to change now. Teacher usually does well, but suddenly he failed. When Shouzheng saw it, he thought Teacher had any grievances? How can Teacher be able to forgive him?"
The short disciple also sighed and said with emotion: "Oh, it's difficult for the teacher too.
Although Xu Chengtong was in the hall, the words of the two disciples could not be hidden from him. He dismissed them and said to himself: "What do these stupid disciples know? I am not the only one working for Shouzheng now. I am not the only one who works for Shouzheng. There are no other good or bad things."
Is it worthy of being a foil?
Now when something happens, isn't Shouzheng the first person to think of me, Lao Xu? He doesn't even need to explain, that's because Shouzheng knows that I am reliable and trusts me, Lao Xu, how could it be done by someone else?"
With a straight face, he called out, "Here comes someone."
Two disciples at the door quickly ran in, bowed and said, "What are your instructions, teacher?"
Xu Chengtong said: "You two, please call a few more disciples and follow me to the continent to do some work." After saying that, he played two spiritual talismans, flew to the two of them, and said: "This matter is important.
It's a matter of keeping upright and caring, you have arranged it carefully for me, and there can be no mistakes."
The two disciples said yes solemnly.
At this time, in Yiluo Shangzhou, located in a certain pavilion in Zhouzhi Sizhou, He Li was calling out Daoxuanzhang and talking to a monk opposite Xuntian Daozhang with a gentle smile.
The other person cannot see his appearance, but in order to gain the other person's trust, he must ensure that the emotions he expresses are true, so when he speaks, the external emotions he reveals are naturally suitable for expression.
However, being like this for a long time also brought some disadvantages. He always felt like he was divided.
While he was talking, a disciple from outside pushed the door open and walked in. A ray of light just shone on his face. He couldn't help but squint his eyes, feeling very annoyed, but his tone was very kind, "Martial nephew Lu, what's wrong?
Already?"
The disciple surnamed Lu said nervously: "Uncle He, there are people patrolling the station outside looking for you."
"What?"
He Li suddenly became very nervous.
How could he not know what the people patrolling the station were doing?
These people are the outer monks and the spies hiding inside who are searching for possible cracks on the outside of Shangzhou and also checking whether the inner layer has been invaded.
And when these people suddenly came looking for him, did they know his identity?
He was panicked for a moment, but since the other party had found him, he must have been prepared, and now it was too late to escape.
He wanted to contact Ban Lan, but when he thought about it, it was wrong. At this moment, even Xun Tian Daozhang might be targeted. If he contacted Ban Lan, the latter would be exposed instead.
But although countless thoughts suddenly popped up in his mind, thanks to his recent habit of emotional splitting, a surprised expression naturally appeared on his face and he said: "This is strange, I have never interacted with people who patrol the station.
Where are they?"
The disciple surnamed Lu said hurriedly: "We are waiting in the living room below. There are many people here, and there are many monks surrounding us outside."
He Li knew that if something really happened, he wouldn't be able to hide from it, so he stood up and said, "Then I'll go see you, oh." He looked at himself and waited for me to change into clothes."
He returned to the back room and changed some clothes. In the process, he tried to leave a secret note several times, but in the end he resisted. After walking out again, he said: "Come on, let's go meet for a while."
These guys."
This station has a total of seventeen floors. It looks like the character "Hui" when looking down from the top. It is spacious and vast inside. There is also a small lake in the middle with a running water leading to the outside. Many Xuanxiu from other continents are here.
Love living here.
He Li lived on the fifth floor. When he came to the corridor on the second floor, a serious-looking monk immediately came up, glanced at him, raised his hand and saluted, and said, "He Xuanxiu?"
He Li replied with a courtesy and said: "It's me."
The monk said: "Follow me." After saying that, he walked to a corner first, and He Li had no choice but to follow.
When he reached the door of an open pavilion, he said to the inside through the bamboo curtain: "Senior brother, we are here."
Shen Yanping was sitting behind a small table with a jade volume on it. Hearing the sound, he coughed and said, "Let fellow Taoist He come in." He was Xu Chengtong's trusted disciple, and this time Xu Chengtong did not come forward directly, but
It is to leave the questioning to him.
He Li straightened his clothes again, and took this opportunity to calm down. Then he opened the curtain and entered. When he saw Shen Yanping, he cupped his hands in front of him and said, "Fellow Taoist, you are polite."
Shen Yanping responded with a courtesy after the case, reported his name, and said: "This time Shen was ordered to conduct an inquiry. I need to ask Brother He Dao a few words. I hope Brother He Dao will not take offense." He faced the person in front of him. Futon gestured, "Please sit down."
He Li thanked him and sat down, showing a little unnaturalness at the right time.
Shen Yanping smiled and said: "Fellow Daoist He, don't be nervous. We just want to ask you to answer a few questions. We hope you can answer truthfully."
He Li nodded and said, "Brother Shen, please tell me. He knows everything he knows."
Shen Yanping flipped through the jade book on the case and said, "Fellow Daoist He, we have read your history. Your teacher was named Lu Chao, and you also had a senior brother named Lu Gui? Isn't that right?"
He Li didn't know why he asked about his sect, but it seemed that things were a little different from what he thought, and there was nothing wrong with his sect. He couldn't help but feel certain in his heart, and said, "Yes, my teacher is indeed Lu Chao. Senior brother is also named Lu Gui."
Shen Yanping said: "But Shen has a question. Fellow Daoist Shen, your master and your senior brother are both Hunzhang monks. Why are you a Xuanzhang monk?"
He Li said: "Ashamed, I am a disciple on behalf of my senior brother. He thinks that my character is difficult to escape from. If I fall into chaos, I am afraid that I will go astray, so he specially sought a mysterious method for me, and that's how it ended up. Coming down."
Shen Yanping suddenly realized and said oh, nodded, and said: "It seems that you have a good relationship as brothers."
He Li said: "Senior brother really treats me well."
Shen Yanping said: "Does Fellow Daoist Shen know your master?"
"Master?"
He Li was a little stunned and said: "Senior brother has never mentioned this, but..." He said with some uncertainty: "Senior brother seemed to worship someone every once in a while in the early years, but I was never allowed to worship. I In the early days, I thought that Xu was the teacher, but then I thought about it and it didn’t look like it, maybe he was the master?"
Shen Yanping glanced at him a few times and did not continue to ask. Instead, he glanced at the jade book again and said: "Your teacher disappeared while fighting in the outer world a hundred years ago, and your senior brother also did the same later. Did they ever stay?" What are you going to say?"
He Li shook his head.
But at this moment, he had already thought that this person was probably not here for him, but wanted to find something from his senior brother and the master he had never met before.
So he pretended to reminisce for a while, and then said: "My senior brother is a very serious person, and he is acting as a master and accepting disciples, so I never dare to ask more questions, but I know that my senior brother has a son who was once fostered in a family. , I went to see my senior brother before he disappeared, maybe he knows something?"
Shen Yanping perked up, this was a clue he had never known at this moment, and said: "What is the name of your senior brother's son? Where does he live?"
He Li said: "His name is Chi Gao, and he lives in Yingzhou now..."
Shen Yanping waved his sleeves, and a piece of paper fell down, floated in front of him, and said, "Fellow Taoist, please write down everything about this pool."
Half a summer later, Shen Yanping and several colleagues left the Tai Pavilion, took advantage of the light and came to the hiding spaceship above, walked all the way to the main cabin, saluted Xu Chengtong who was sitting there, and put the He Li handed over the document he wrote and said, "Teacher, this is the only thing that has been found so far."
Another disciple said: "Teacher, it seems that He Li is just a disciple who is not valued. I think that Chi Gaocai should be the key figure."
However, Xu Chengtong reprimanded: "Your Taoism is still too shallow. I have taught you so much in vain. How can I entrust you with heavy responsibilities as a teacher in the future?"
How can we make a conclusion here? We must know that cultivators have many tricks, especially Lu Chao, who is still a disciple of Xuanzun. If he has used any tricks, He Li may not know it, or he may have simply forgotten it, but at some point,
But it can make him think of it.”
The disciples present quickly said yes.
Xu Chengtong sneered and said: "And when He Li first heard that I was looking for him, he was quite panicked. There must be something wrong in his heart. First, send someone to keep an eye on this person. Let's go to Yingzhou to look for Chigao first, and then we'll do it after we come back.
