Chapter six hundred and forty seventh stealing lotus
Late at night, there were very few people on the streets of Beijing.
Chief Cui led a group of his men and left the escort agency in a hurry, without even the cold sweat on his forehead drying up.
"Sir, who is that Li Xiuyuan? What is his official position? How can I be so frightened, sir? Judging from his young age, he is only a county magistrate at most, or a magistrate at most." asked a subordinate next to him.
Cui Wei whispered: "This man is Li Xiuyuan, the guerrilla general in the south. You should all know about the rebellion of the Nine Mountain Kings last year. It was this man who defeated him. At that time, Li Liangjin was so powerful that he had the potential to sweep across Yangzhou, but the Jinling City
However, Li Liangjin, the king of the Nine Mountains, defeated hundreds of thousands of troops in one day.
Defeated, it never recovered from the fall until it was finally annihilated."
"And this is just news from the imperial court. According to the news from the Six Gates, Li Liangjin's rebellion was planned by several thousand-year-old demons, including Wang Ze from the Maitreya Sect, Hua Gu from the White Lotus Sect, the big thief Shi Hu, and the water thief Mr. Chen.
, these thieves are very human, they were transformed into big monsters, but after that battle
Wang Ze was executed on the spot, and the White Lotus Sect disappeared. It was said that it was finally completely wiped out by Li Xiuyuan's army. Aunt Hua might not be able to save her life. The big thief Shi Hu escaped and went north after hearing this. As for the water thief Mr. Chen, he disappeared.
"
"It's not terrible that Li Xiuyuan suppressed the rebellion. What's terrible is that the demons who had harmed the Song Dynasty for hundreds of years were wiped out by him alone."
"This time the officials recruited him to Beijing to report on his duties. On the surface, it is unclear whether there is any big plan behind the report. This is not something we can guess, nor can we get involved. If things go wrong, we cannot afford it."
The lame old man heard this and said in shock: "The Lotus Spirit is a demon from the Wutong Sect. This time Master Li captured the Lotus Spirit and caused a stir. Could it be that he wants to take action against the Wutong Sect?"
"The lotus essence is just a bait, and its purpose is the five great immortals of the Wutong Sect?"
"Hush, walls have ears, don't discuss this matter anymore." Cui Wei hissed and looked around warily, not daring to reveal what he had speculated.
The capital has been suffering from ghosts and ghosts for a long time.
If this Li Xiuyuan really came to the capital on the emperor's order, then he would most likely take action against these ghosts and ghosts in the capital.
Regardless of whether this was his personal intention, it was most likely also the intention of the imperial court.
It's a pity that Li Xiuyuan doesn't know Cui Wei's thoughts.
If you knew, you would definitely laugh at this person because he has a strong brain and thinks too much.
Li Xiuyuan simply encountered some evil things and wanted to solve them casually. He didn't think too much at all. If it weren't for Zhu Yu's matter, he wouldn't even know that there is such a thing as the Wutong Sect, and he wouldn't go there.
There is nothing wrong with looking for trouble, just looking for trouble with that Lotus girl.
Unfortunately, Miss Lotus's fate was not good, and she met a fate that fell into her own hands.
I can only blame her for doing too many evil things and she will eventually be punished.
However, this night was not peaceful after all.
Li Xiuyuan's house is clean, but it is on a river in the capital.
Ships dock here and it is an important wharf. However, on a river south of the capital, it is decorated with lights and colorful paintings, and there are many paintings and boats. It is comparable to the Qinhuai River in Jinling City. It is a rare place for windy and snowy nights.
, some people are tired of the boring brothels and come to the river to listen to music and admire the dancing girls.
It’s also nice to enjoy the river breeze.
At this moment.
A ray of evil spirit took advantage of the darkness and submerged into one of the painted boats.
The demonic aura manifested itself in the form of a woman.
However, her figure was a bit hollow, like a ghost, without a body.
This person is none other than the Lotus Essence who was deliberately let go by Li Xiuyuan in Zui Feng Tower.
"Great Immortal, save me, Great Immortal, save me. The Nu family met a strong man in the Zui Feng Tower. His magic was so powerful that he took away my body. The Nu family only managed to escape with a piece of my body. Please also ask the Great Immortal to save me."
Miss Lotus shouted with a pleading look on her face and knelt down facing a private room in the painting boat.
"It's a lotus flower."
A woman's voice came out from the elegant room. Her voice was light and soft, without any charm, but instead had an otherworldly charm.
"Great Immortal, save me." Miss Lotus cried and kowtowed: "The Tao of the slave family is all based on the body. Please ask the Great Immortal to cast a spell to save me."
"Don't cry, why are you crying? We are all members of my family, so how can I not save them even if they die?" The voice continued to sound.
But he saw a pair of jade-like thin hands on the gums in the private room taking a piece of yellow paper and folding it into a paper crane: "I will send this paper crane to hold the lotus flower. You only need to wait for a few days."
, please step back first, don’t come to my place to make any noise again, next time you have something to do, go to the workshop to find me.”
"Thank you, Immortal. Thank you, Immortal." Miss Lotus was so happy when she saw a paper crane flying out that she hurriedly kowtowed.
But after she left, another voice sounded inside.
"Sister clearly knows that the human being is unpredictable and can capture lotus flowers and her clone. The reason why she escaped from Zuifeng Tower is because the drunkard's intention is not to drink. He is planning this thing of our Wutong Sect.
Those of you who dare to attract our attention must be confident and need to be extremely careful.
, if I were to deal with it, I would just abandon the lotus and cut off this connection."
Another voice said lazily. It was also a woman's voice, but it was a little less fairy-like and a little more demonic.
"You are too impatient. I will first send Zhihe to investigate and test that person's abilities. Moreover, Lotus plays a very important role in the sect. If you don't express your feelings, wouldn't it chill people's hearts? If people's hearts are broken, this enemy will become the enemy.
There is an opportunity to take advantage of.”
"If that person really wants to track down our Wutong Sect, he will be able to track him down sooner or later, and the connection will be unclear."
"That's what my sister said."
The voices in the painting boat soon became quiet.
Only one paper crane flew silently to Zuifeng Tower. After staying in Zuifeng Tower for a while, it began to trace the smell of lotus in the capital.
By the time it gets slightly brighter.
The paper crane finally found the yard where Li Xiuyuan was.
The paper crane landed on the water tank in the yard from the sky, and stood there looking at the blooming lotus in the water tank.
He looked around smartly for a while.
Suddenly, the paper crane fluttered its wings, suddenly grew in size, and turned into a crane. It grabbed the lotus root with its claws, trying to pull it out of the water tank and take it away.
"Wow!"
However, the water surface in the water tank fluctuated and water splashed.
Suddenly, thousands of golden lights shot out from the water, instantly covering the crane.
The crane whined and instantly turned into an ordinary piece of yellow paper and fell from the air, and the lotus that had just been grabbed returned to the water tank again.
Apart from a few ripples, there was no movement.
"Gu, Gu Gu."
A big bright red rooster walked over and pecked at the yellow paper crane on the ground until it was ragged and unresponsive, and then the big rooster walked away again.
"Is it really a trap? What an extraordinary act."
The great immortal sensed the fate of Zhihe, and let out a sigh. His spell was instantly broken, and the information revealed was enough for people to take seriously.
