Chapter 173: Until the end

Qi Xuansu looked at the corpse and could probably conclude that Wang Baoyue died from the "Phoenix Eye" series of methods, and that it was more powerful than "Phoenix Eye Yi San", maybe "Phoenix Eye Yi Er" or "Phoenix Eye Yi Yi", or even

It is the "phoenix eye" A series.

The Taoist Sect has extremely strict control over the "A" series of "Dragon Eyes" and "Phoenix Eyes" and will not leave them alone. Anyone who can use such things to kill people must have a deep connection with the Taoist Sect.

Now that things have developed to this point, there is nothing more to say.

Qi Xuansu was more interested in Wang Baoyue's prosthetic limb.

Because Wang Baoyue's clothes and flesh and blood were burned, Qi Xuansu discovered that the so-called "alchemy arcana" was not as simple as a prosthetic limb. One end of the prosthetic limb and the prosthetic hand was connected to the muzzle, and the other end had many

Metal thin tubes similar to the meridians of the human body can be extended into Wang Baoyue's body through the connection point on the shoulder.

Qi Xuansu deduced that these thin metal tubes extending from the ends of the prosthetic limbs should be connected to the internal organs. However, because Wang Baoyue was burned internally and externally and his internal organs were gone, only these thin metal tubes were left, so it is impossible to know how these thin tubes are connected to the internal organs.

, and it is impossible to determine which thin tube is connected to which part.

This means that after others get the prosthetic limbs, it is difficult to use them directly without the right method. It is probably similar to Qi Xuansu's "secondary intention". Even if someone kills Qi Xuansu, dig out this valuable "artificial limb" from his body.

"Secretary heart", you don't dare to change your heart rashly. Even if you are lucky enough to succeed, it may not be effective, but you will lose your life.

However, Huashengtang should acquire such things to study the mysteries of "alchemy arcana" and then crack or imitate them. Moreover, under such a violent explosion, this prosthetic limb was still intact as a whole, which shows that its

The material is good, even if it is remade, it is still excellent.

In addition, even Wang Baoyue's hand gun was not damaged. This fire gun with a strong Western style also left a deep impression on Qi Xuansu.

"gun" is different. This is a continuous fire gun. Although it is not as powerful, it can form fire suppression.

The others are gone, all burned to ashes. Maybe Wang Baoyue's net worth is not a small amount, but he doesn't carry it with him. Most of it is hidden somewhere, or exists somewhere. I don't know if it will be cheaper.

who.

As for the Xumi treasure, it is not something that just anyone can have, nor can it be bought with money. It is more of a symbol of status. When bidding in the Shangqing Palace, the penultimate one was the Dazhen Palace.

The red fruit that I took out has been processed and can be taken with confidence. The base price is 5,000 pacific coins. The last large axis that appeared is a Xumi object. It is of high quality. The base price is 10,000 pacific coins. The last one

The final Zhuguo sold for a high price of 8,000 Taiping qian, and was bought by a real person from Quanzhen Taoism. The large scroll of Xumiwu sold for 15,000 Taiping qian, and was bought by Zhang Kushu.

Down.

The high price of fifteen thousand Taiping coins, not to mention how many people can afford it, even if they can afford it, whether they can enter the Shangqing Palace is another matter. Those who participated in the bidding at that time were all Zhengyiyi and Quanzhendao.

The core disciple, Qi Xuansu, was able to enter the Shangqing Palace because of Zhang Yuelu's influence, otherwise he would not even be able to see the threshold.

From this point of view, Zhang Yuelu is also poor when he says he is poor, and rich when he says he is rich.

She is said to be poor because she is neither greedy nor embezzling, and lives only on regular banknotes and subsidies. Her family is wealthy but does not have any income from various industries. She does not have much real peace money in her hands. She lives in Yujing and has a lot of expenses. On weekdays, she even

It will be stretched thin.

She is rich because many of the things in her name are extremely valuable, such as the house in Taishangfang, the Xumi treasures on her body, and semi-immortal objects, etc. If she could really sell them, it would cost hundreds of thousands of peacetime at least. It’s just that

These things nominally belong to the Taoist sect and cannot be sold. If Zhang Yuelu makes a mistake, they may be taken back.

The reason why Zhang Yuelu was able to treat money indifferently was certainly because of his bright mind, but these material guarantees also played an important role. Qi Xuansu did not have such a material foundation, so he always cared about Taiping money.

Qi Xuansu turned to look at Xu Kou and said, "These two things should be worth a lot of money. Brother Xu, please choose one."

"I choose the fire gun." Xu Kou was not polite and directly picked up the Western fire gun. Regardless of the martial artist's fists and blood roars, the distance is quite limited, and he lacks the means of long-range attacks, so he usually is equipped with a fire gun.

, In fact, Tiangang Hall also issued handguns, but the power of the "Blue Bird Handgun" was limited, and Xu Kou looked down upon it. Only fourth-grade Taoist priests would be equipped with "Dragon Handguns," so Xu Kou never carried a handgun.

This Western pistol can meet his requirements.

Although Qi Xuansu also likes this blunderbuss, in addition to the "Dragon Hand blunderbuss", he also has "Seven Phoenix Feathers" and "Bliss Needle", so he doesn't need this blunderbuss that much.

Since Xu Kou chose a hand gun, Qi Xuansu could only choose a prosthetic limb. With the strength of a returning warrior, he tore the prosthetic limb directly from the corpse and looked at it carefully.

Except for those thin metal tubes, it looks like an arm, which is not difficult to carry. For Qi Xuansu, even if it cannot be used for his own use, it still means a large amount of peace money, and maybe he can exchange it for some from Huashengtang

Good things only provided to Taoist priests.

It’s just that branch halls of Huasheng Hall are generally only located in the capital of a state, or in certain important cities. Looking at the entire Luzhou, only Huainan Prefecture, the capital, has a branch hall of Huasheng Hall. Speaking of Huainan Prefecture, Qi Xuansu also

He was familiar with it. After leaving Fengtai County, he boarded a flying boat from Huainan Mansion to Yujing and began his journey to the Taoist sect. This led to all his subsequent experiences.

However, Huainan Mansion was not on the way, so Qi Xuansu still focused on escorting Liu Hu to Bohai Mansion. Fortunately, Bohai Mansion, as an important city, also had a branch of Huasheng Hall.

At this time, Zhang Baihu also arrived here with his people. Seeing the scene here, he was speechless for a moment.

Qi Xuansu carried the prosthetic leg and said succinctly: "He was silenced."

It took Zhang Baihu a while before he said with a wry smile: "You have to see people alive, and you have to see your corpse when you die. Anyway, there is an explanation."

After that, he ordered his subordinates to carefully collect the charred body and try to deliver it to his superior intact.

Qi Xuansu and Xu Kou no longer cared about this matter.

Xu Kou originally had an ambiguous position, and Qi Xuansu was not willing to get involved in the internal strife among these Taoist sects without any encouragement. To put it bluntly, only by knowing how to point it out can you live a long life. After all, there is only one Zhang Yuelu, not everyone.

Everyone can move forward and start well and end well.

Naturally, Zhang Baihu knew how to give up when he was ready. Wang Baoyue's death was not only a murder to silence, but also a warning to others.



Wannian County, Shen Zhai, study.

Shen Mingshu sat on the Taishi chair behind the desk, sipping tea leisurely.

There are two other people in the study. One of them is wearing a Taoist robe with wide sleeves, has three strands of chest-length beard, and his black hair is tied up with a jade hairpin. Taoist priest Jiang Bieyun tastes wine.

They are both fourth-grade Taoist priests, but there are differences between them. For example, Zhang Yuelu and Sun Yongfeng are both fourth-grade Taoist priests who offer wine sacrifices, but they are not the same in terms of the power in their hands or their future prospects. Jiang Bieyun belongs to the fourth-grade priests. The best among the wine Taoist priests will soon be promoted to a third-grade Youyi Taoist priest.

The other person seemed to be about the age of Zhi Tianming. His temples were gray and weather-beaten, and he had very strong traces of military service on his body, indicating that he was once one of the men in black. He was wearing a special blue official uniform with a bear bandage embroidered on it. , it is none other than Qianhu Zhao Guangji, the palm print of Luzhou Qianhu Office.

Zhao Guangji has the air of a military general on the battlefield. He has a burly figure, but he does not give off the slightest sense of roughness. Instead, he adds a bit of majesty. The expression on his face is calm and cold, without any violence. After all, he can climb up the ranks in the Qingluan Guard. To the position of Qian Hu, he will definitely not be a fool with a head full of killings.

Shen Mingshu put down the bowl in his hand and said slowly: "Seventy years are rare in life, ten years are old and weak, ten years are young, and there are still fifty years. Fifty years are divided into day and night, and there are still twenty-five years left. Wind, frost, snow, rain, three calamities and six illnesses have left us with very few days left. I and the two of us are both people who know destiny, and the remaining good days are only a handful."

This is a double entendre.

Jiang Bieyun and Zhao Guangji both understood.

Yuan Chongzong, Yuan Shangdao, and Wang Baoyue died one after another. No one knew whether it would be their turn.

After all, it is a matter of life and death.

After a while, Jiang Bieyun said: "Mr. Shen is worrying too much. With the imperial master and the imperial court here, we will all live a long life."

Shen Mingshu smiled and said: "That's good, we will still drink tea together then."

Zhao Guangji suddenly said: "Speaking of drinking tea, the last time I went to Qizhou, I met Xu Kou. In the blink of an eye, he had gone to Yujing to work as a Taoist priest. What does this mean?"

"Everyone has his own ambitions, and we can't force him." Jiang Bieyun said calmly, "One day, either him or us, someone has to be a prisoner."

The three of them were silent.

It's not that they have lost confidence in Taiping Dao, on the contrary, they are full of confidence in Taiping Dao, but they have no confidence in themselves.

As the Zixian Mountain case intensifies, they are not sure whether they can wait until the day when Taiping Dao wins.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside the study.

Shen Mingshu said: "Come in."

The old servant who followed Shen Mingshu came in and reported: "Master, those people have left with Wang Baoyue's body."

Shen Mingshu asked: "Where are Master Wei and Master Xu?"

"He also left together." The old servant replied.

Shen Mingshu thought for a moment and said, "Withdraw the manpower."

The old servant responded and left.

Zhao Guangji sighed: "It's a pity that Wang Baoyue's belongings were hidden on some deserted island."
