As the night gets darker, the entire Tailing Southwest Square becomes lively. For Wutong Garden, this is the beginning of the day.
The black night and the red lanterns turned into large black and red patches, which looked like dried blood.
When Qi Xuansu went to Nancheng, he not only took a detour, but also changed his clothes. Judging from his clothes at this time, Qi Xuansu was not much different from the guests who came to the hospital.
People in Taoist sects, regardless of their real family background, should still be simple on the surface, and should not be too flamboyant. However, those who can come to a first-class courtyard like Wutong Garden are either rich or noble, so naturally they cannot dress plainly. Qi Xuansu
This outfit cost him a total of ninety-three Taiping, which was rounded up to one hundred Taiping, which made his already poor family even worse. After all official expenses were reimbursed, he was left with only eight hundred Taiping.
Money.
However, Qi Xuansu felt that as long as this grudge could be settled, not to mention one hundred Taiping coins, even one thousand Taiping coins would be worth it. As for ten thousand Taiping coins, forget it. Qi Xuansu felt that Monk Yanxiu was not worth that much money.
Qi Xuansu originally wanted to buy a shot of "Long Eye Jia Jiu" in case of emergency. However, considering that the target was too big, if it was not handled properly, traces of "Long Eye Jia Jiu" were found on Yanxiu's body.
, and found out that he had just bought "Dragon Eye Jiajiu" recently. It was undoubtedly his own fault, so he gave up.
Qi Xuansu hid in the dark and observed for a moment, then took out the "white fox face" mask that had not been used for a long time from the Xumi object and put it on his face.
In fact, the safest way is for Qi Xuansu to put on women's clothes, and then use the "white fox face" mask to look like a woman. It cannot be said to be perfect, but it is the safest way. Not only can Monk Yanxiu be surprised, but when traced afterwards,
It can also greatly eliminate suspicion and mislead others. However, after all, Qi Xuansu is not an assassin who uses all possible means. He is also a conservative person at his core, so he rejected this safest method and settled for the next best thing, pretending to be an assassin.
It's an old man.
Although this old man's face once appeared in Jiangling Mansion, after the Yuan family was wiped out, the only insider left was General Feng from the "Tianting". Not to mention that General Feng had only seen the old man's face and did not know Qi Xuansu's identity.
, even if you know, the words of a secret society demon are not enough to rely on.
As for the remaining people, Zhang Yuelu and Pei Xiaolou are all their own.
Qi Xuansu was currently in a dark alley without lights. The ordinary houses on both sides of the alley were also the property of Wutong Garden. Some of the servants of the courtyard lived here, mainly because it was close to the courtyard and easy to travel. At this time
They all went to work, so the place was naturally deserted.
Not long after, three bright sky lanterns slowly rose up. From right to left, the first sky lantern had the word "武" written on it, and the second sky lantern had the word "武" written on it.
The word "Tong" is written on the third sky lantern, and the word "Yuan" is written on it. Because the sky lantern has words on all sides, you can see it clearly no matter which direction you look at it.
After Qi Xuansu confirmed that it was correct, he left the alley where he was hiding and walked towards Wutong Garden.
Wutong Garden occupies a huge area. Although it cannot compare with the Jade Palace, which occupies a square area, it is comparable to a prince's mansion. It covers an area of more than 100 acres, so there are multiple entrances and exits. It is not necessary to go through the main entrance. Qi Xuansu chose
This entrance is relatively remote, leading directly to various independent courtyards. Only guests with pink hair in Wutong Garden often use this entrance, so I didn't see anyone for a long time.
The turtle slave guarding the door saw Qi Xuansu walking alone and hurried forward to greet him. He thought the old man was unfamiliar and was about to ask Qi Xuansu when he met Qi Xuansu's eyes.
For a moment, the turtle slave's eyes glazed over and he fell into a state of trance.
This is the magical "God of Chaos" of Wu Zhu, which can influence the minds of others, be used to charm and control others, and can also be used to soothe emotions. Wu Luo is extremely good at this kind of magic, and can control millions of people at his peak. It is said that this is
It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the first person in Taoism.
Because it is magical, you don’t have to practice it deliberately. Once you reach the state, you will naturally master it.
As for why Wu Zhu has such magical powers, it actually makes sense. If you want to attract believers, it is not enough to rely on words or small inducements. Showing miracles is nothing. After all, other gods can also call the wind and rain. I
Why should I trust you? That’s why Wu Zhu still uses some semi-coercive means.
If it is blessed by formations, believers can be "bewitched" on a large scale. However, just like the alchemists who do evil things while dreaming, the Taoist sect strictly prohibits such behavior, and once discovered, it will be severely punished.
Qi Xuansu ordered: "You didn't see anything. No one came in or out during this period. Then you will wake up after ten breaths and remember nothing. Everything will be as before."
"Yes, I... didn't... see... anything..." The turtle slave slowly repeated Qi Xuansu's words like a puppet.
Qi Xuansu walked straight into this portal.
Ten breaths later, the turtle slave woke up and looked around, but no one was there, just like usual.
Turtle slave yawned.
Qi Xuansu came to Wutong Garden for the first time and was not familiar with the terrain. However, this did not trouble him. As long as he kept raising his eyes,
Just confirm the direction of the "Tong" sky lantern above, then go straight all the way, and climb over when encountering a wall. With his skills, it is not difficult to avoid being discovered. If it doesn't work, you can also use "Chaos"
"God" opens the way.
This is the beginning of Haishi, which is the twenty-first o'clock in Western time.
This is the time when the courtyard is most lively.
Even though this area is considered a relatively secluded area in Wutong Garden, you can still faintly hear the sounds of silk and bamboo and the laughter of men and women. There are even some impatient guests who have already begun to get to the point. Those strands, intermittent and continuous.
The sound is obviously not loud, but it is very penetrating, going straight into people's ears.
Qi Xuansu was unmoved and had no hesitation at all.
When he was doing business, he was always focused and not disturbed by external things. This was also the key to his survival in the cruel world.
At the first quarter of Haishi, Qi Xuansu had arrived outside the single courtyard where monk Yanxiu lived. He looked up and saw that the sky lantern with the character "Tong" was almost hanging high above his head. He had to look up to see it.
Although Li Qingnu controlled Wutong Garden, he couldn't leave too many traces, so he could only buy Qi Xuansu half an hour.
Qi Xuansu waved his hand, and two invisible sword energies shot out one after another. The first sword energy cut off the colored ropes used to fix the sky lantern, and the second sword energy shot down the sky lantern.
The sky lantern did not fall vertically, but swayed like a shooting star and fell diagonally toward other courtyards in the distance.
Although Qi Xuansu did not set a specific signal with Li Qingnu in advance because the specific situation was unknown, and he could not let him set off fireworks, which would be too conspicuous, but he believed that Li Qingnu, who was already prepared, would definitely understand, because
This is the "Tong" sky lantern that Li Qingnu mentioned.
Many people saw this scene and rushed towards the place where the sky lantern fell.
After all, there are mostly wooden buildings here, which can easily cause fires.
Qi Xuansu believed that Li Qingnu would also be "alarmed" and come to the scene in person. Then she could legitimately and reasonably dispatch people to find out the cause, and then intentionally or unintentionally miss the residence of Monk Yanxiu to give Qi Xuansu time.
After Qi Xuansu saw the sky lantern fall to the ground, he walked slowly towards the courtyard gate.
There are still some servants and maids in the courtyard. After all, it would be unrealistic to evacuate them all, and it would easily arouse Yanxiu's suspicion.
Qi Xuansu's response was to use "chaotic gods" to drive them away, while also making them remember nothing afterwards.
Now Qi Xuansu feels more and more that the day after tomorrow
The banished immortals are much more powerful in the heavenly and human stage than the innate banished immortals. At least Zhang Yuelu does not have this kind of magic, so he can only learn it, but he does not have to learn it at all.
Of course, if Zhang Yuelu has enough energy, the upper limit should be higher, because the greatest advantage of the banished immortal is that the sea is vast and the sea is vast. No matter what kind of magical power it is, he can learn it quickly, and there is no need to
Conflicts and hidden dangers, after all, the true essence can use Taiji to transform all things, while the banished immortals the day after tomorrow can use thousands of opportunities to return to the origin. One is extremely complex, and the other is extremely simple.
All in all, the method of banishing immortals innate is a bit like the method of Taoism, which is step-by-step and full of stamina. The method of banishing immortals the day after tomorrow is a bit like the method of heretical methods, taking a deviated approach and exerting force in the early stage.
Each has its own advantages and disadvantages, but different paths lead to the same destination.
Qi Xuansu had just walked to the bedroom door when he heard a voice coming from inside: "Who is it?"
It was Yanxiu's bald voice that Qi Xuansu clearly remembered only a year later.
Because the "white fox face" mask can also change the voice, Qi Xuansu was not afraid of revealing his identity and said directly: "An old friend is visiting."
After the words fell, the two doors opened by themselves. The room was warm and the red candles were burning brightly.
Opposite the door is a screen, and Yanxiu's voice comes from behind the screen: "The young monk doesn't seem to recognize you."
The corners of Qi Xuansu's lips curled up: "Zen Master is such a noble man who forgets things so much. Let me remind you, Little King Qin, Xie Qiuniang, Hua Jianyi."
This is what Li Qingnu told him. It is said that these three people once intercepted and killed monk Yanxiu, but they still let Yanxiu escape.
Yanxiu was silent for a moment, and then his voice became a little colder: "Qingping meeting."
Qi Xuansu said: "It seems that your noble lord has remembered that you dared to show up after letting you run away last time. How audacious are you to ignore our Qingping Society?"
The screen between the two of them suddenly shattered.
I saw a large splendid bed, with two women on it. Their black hair was half loose, their clothes were half unbuttoned, and they were covered with white flowers. It was really a beautiful scene of spring.
In the middle of this spring light, Monk Yanxiu sat cross-legged, letting the two beauties lie on his body, showing a holy and compassionate look on his face.
"You are so haunted that you chased me all the way here." Monk Yanxiu did not panic, "But this is the Imperial Capital, and you rats cannot see the light."
Qi Xuansu was indifferent and just said: "Monk, I'll give you one last chance to hand over the 'Xuan Jade', and forget about it. If you don't hand it over, we can find you even if you hide in Yujing."
