Gu An looked at the seven engraving pens on the table.
I was thinking about whether to carve another intermediate formation pattern on myself.
However, the Chiyang pen needs to absorb the sun, so we can only wait until tomorrow to consider it.
The same is true for several other engraving pens. For intermediate and above formation patterns, the energy stored in the engraving pen alone is not enough.
Energy needs to be absorbed from the outside world in order to complete the imprinting of the array pattern.
I put the Chiyang pens I was going to use tomorrow outside, and put the remaining pens into boxes and put them away.
After doing all this, Gu An lay down on the bed and began to rest.
…
In an underground palace thousands of miles away from Youzhou.
Ji Hong, the leader of the Youzhou branch of the Blood God Sect, was sitting cross-legged in front of the middle-aged man in blood robes with a displeased expression on his face.
"Leader, you also know that my son Kun'er died in the Hundred Households of Zhenxie Division in Dongling County.
If I don't do anything, wouldn't it mean that others would look down on me, Ji Hong!"
The middle-aged man in the blood robe held a ruby in his hand and said slowly: "Don't be anxious, this revenge will naturally be avenged.
What's more, "Blood Drawing Technique" is still there, we have to get it back.
But you also know that these are extraordinary times.
We have been planning for so many years, so don’t let this incident ruin the original arrangements.”
Ji Hong's chest rose and fell violently several times, and he exhaled a breath: "Okay, for the sake of the overall situation, let go of the Dongling County Baihu Station, but Gu An, I must kill him!"
"He is in Zhenna City now. You Hongming and the three others are there. How do you kill him?"
"He is Xiaoqi from Baihu Station in Dongling County, and he will go back one day."
"Even so, Ding Shichang will accompany us back when the time comes, and all of us in Youzhou who are above the Sky Control Realm are being watched, so how can we do anything?"
"Have you forgotten, the leader? There are still people over there who can be used."
The middle-aged man in blood-robed eyes shrank sharply when he heard this, and then suddenly widened.
"That's right. After the conference in Youzhou, they will also attack Shiwandashan. You can give them advance notice."
Ji Hong's face lit up when he heard this, he stood up directly and raised his hands to the middle-aged man in blood robe: "Thank you, Master, I'll do it right away."
As soon as Ji Hong took a step forward, he was stopped by a middle-aged man in blood robe.
"Wait a minute, all you need to do to kill Gu An is send out a sky-controlling realm.
Just let Hong Ling handle it. These days, you stay at the headquarters and don't go out."
"Leader!"
"Don't worry, come back and sit down."
Ji Hong could only reluctantly return to his seat and sit down.
The middle-aged man in the blood robe said quietly: "But if that line moves, Youzhou will be in chaos..."
…
The next morning, Gu An placed the red sun pen on the window sill, turned on the sun suction device, and left him alone.
After having breakfast in the dining hall, he returned to the house and sat quietly in his seat, waiting for someone from the Wu Mansion, the Huang Family or the City Lord's Mansion to come to the door.
It waited until noon, when Gu An was preparing to have lunch, that someone finally came with the news.
A handyman disciple quickly walked up to Gu An.
"Gu Xiaoqi, You Qianhu wants you to visit the living room."
Gu An nodded: "I know."
After a while, as soon as Gu An walked into the living room, he found four eyes turned towards him.
Except for You Hongming, the other three people are all from Wu Mansion.
At the same time, Gu An recognized the identity of the man sitting at the table with You Hongming at a glance.
The head of Youzhou Wu Palace, Lu Yunhang.
Gu An stepped into the hall and bowed to You Hongming.
You Hongming also introduced him to the identities and intentions of these people from Wu Mansion.
Just as Gu An thought, sitting next to You Hongming was Lu Yunhang, the master of Youzhou Wu Palace.
The identity of the other two people and their purpose of coming made Gu An a little surprised.
Cao Feng, the head of Wufu in Xunyang County, asked: "Gu Xiaoqi, I heard that when you were serving as Xiaoqi in Ping'an County.
I, the elder of Xunyang County, Zhou Yinan, once brought his disciples and the captain of my Xunyang County Wufu Law Enforcement Team to find Gu Xiaoqi, I wonder if this is the case?"
Gu An said seriously: "But there is such a thing."
Immediately afterwards, Gu An told him what happened to him, Zhou Yinan and others in Xia Mansion.
"But on the second night, for some unknown reason, they suddenly left Ping'an County without saying goodbye.
We didn't learn about this until another day passed, during dinner in the morning.
Is there any problem with this?"
Gu An asked rhetorically.
Cao Feng reached out and touched his beard: "Oh, really.
But when those carriages arrived at my Wu Mansion in Xunyang County, we found that there was no one inside the carriages."
"No one?"
"Yes, according to my inquiry, Elder Zhou and others did not follow the carriage out, but stayed in the city."
While Gu An's expression didn't change, he was thinking secretly in his heart.
I was obviously the one who killed Zhou Yinan and others outside the city. How could they stay in the city?
It seems that Cao Feng is trying to trick me...
"What! Elder Zhou and the others stayed in the city, why didn't our Evil Suppression Department know about it? Also, what were Elder Zhou and the others doing in the city?"
"What I'm doing is, of course, investigating Gu Xiaoqi's murder of my Xunyang County Wufu disciple, Xia Jing."
Gu An was silent for a while and said seriously: "Could Master Cao be joking? Didn't I just say something about Xia Jing?"
"You just said it, but there is a doubt in it."
Cao Feng smiled and said: "That is about Li Dongjie's use of secret techniques to inquire. According to Gu Xiaoqi, the result of Li Dongjie's inquiry proves that it was not you who killed Xia Jing.
Yesterday, Gu Xiaoqi went to the Formation Masters Guild to buy several intermediate formation pens. Does this mean that Gu Xiaoqi's mental power is as outstanding as his martial arts strength?
Does this mean that Gu Xiaoqi may have stronger mental power than Li Dongjie?
In the same way, Gu Xiaoqi is not affected by Li Dongjie's secret skills, so he can naturally tell lies."
Gu An smiled at this time and said: "I didn't expect Palace Master Cao to think so highly of me.
To be honest with Mr. Cao, I learned about the formation pattern from Manager Wu Zhimin and Wu Guanshi of our Hundred Household Formation Department before I came here.
If you don't believe it, Palace Master Cao can send someone to my Baihu Office in Dongling County to ask Manager Wu."
Speaking of this, Gu An paused for a moment, as if he remembered something: "By the way, Palace Master Cao, according to your statement.
Elder Zhou and the others did not leave Ping'an County. Why did none of us from Ping'an County see Elder Zhou and the others again?
Even if it is an investigation, he will show up, otherwise how can he investigate?
Or, to this day, Elder Zhou and the others are still staying in Xia Mansion?"
Cao Feng's expression froze and he pondered for a moment: "I don't know about this."
Gu An nodded: "Don't worry, Master Cao, I will send a message to Ping'an County later and ask them to search for Xia Mansion to see if Elder Zhou and others are still in Xia Mansion.
After getting the reply, I immediately informed Palace Master Cao.
