According to Changqing's description, Beichen Zhenren's stronghold in Xianyang is the Taiyi Eternal Life Palace. It was originally a royal summer palace under construction, but later Qin Shi Huang gave it to Beichen as a place for cultivation. Therefore, the palace complex, which was supposed to be built on a large scale, only built a hall of eternal life and a seven-treasure glazed pagoda, and the work was hastily stopped, and the Taoist monks lived in it.

Zhao Liang thought it was funny, and teased: "It's been a long time, and it's not good to mix with Beichen Lao'er in Xianyang, but he actually lives in the Banlazi project." ”

Meng Qi shook his head: "My lord, you can't say that. Although the Taiyi Hall of Eternal Life has not been completely built, its significance is not trivial. In terms of the degree of dignity here, the royal palace that has been half built is far stronger than the princely mansion covering an area of 1,000 acres. Because in any case, it was also a holy relic that was originally intended for His Majesty's royal use, so to get this special favor can simply envy others crazy. ”

Xu Fu also nodded again and again, and deeply agreed with Meng Qi's words: "That's right, don't say that the whole palace is half a bowl of meat soup left over by His Majesty, and it will be rewarded to his subordinates, and it can also move the rewarded people to tears, and immediately rise half a head higher among the ministers." ”

"Alas, this feudal ideology is really harmful." Zhao Liang sighed at Zheng Luya, and shrugged helplessly: "The emperor's leftovers have become a great gift, or it is better to say that our new society is better." ”

Xiao Yabai glanced at him: "Do you think there is no such thought in the new era?" If the big chief also gives you half a bowl of leftover soup to drink, it is estimated that you will be as happy as a brat. ”

Zhao Liang was a little speechless by what she said, and after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that this was really the case. If you can have a chance to have a meal with the big chief, when the chief said amiably: "Xiao Zhao, I can't drink this bowl of soup, it's a waste, you can help me Missy." He will definitely stand upright, and said in a firm tone: "Please rest assured that the leader will ensure that the task is completed!" Then I dried it all up, and when I came back, I had to blow cattle with my colleagues in the unit for several years.

It seems that this kind of decadent feudal thinking, even in modern society, is still a bit deep-rooted, Zhao Liang couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion in his heart, and then he secretly felt a little funny: Hey, what am I thinking about here? Even the deputy director didn't give me a good look, and he was still thinking about having dinner with the big chief? Dreaming?

Xu Fu didn't know what he was thinking at this time, and continued to introduce: "Beichen Lao'er doesn't have many disciples here in Xianyang, and there are only about twenty people in total, and most of them are small roles who are responsible for serving his daily life. There should be no more than ten people who can understand some magic and martial arts. ”

"With such a little strength, aren't you afraid of being plotted?" Zheng Luya was a little curious about this.

Xu Fu smiled bitterly: "Plotted? Beichen is already God's grace if he doesn't plot against others, who dares to trouble him? Besides, Xianyang is the capital of the Great Qin State, and it has always been a mountain of laws and regulations, and it is heavily guarded. No matter who it is, even if there is a deep hatred in the sea, they don't dare to pick this place to revenge. Therefore, with His Majesty and the imperial court behind his back, Beichen does not need to arrange too many protective forces as if facing the enemy. ”

Zhao Liang: They agree with this statement. The strength in Beichen's hands is indeed not very strong, otherwise there would be no need to negotiate with the Kunlun faction, and borrow their people to find the Lights Out Dao Master for revenge.

"How is Beichen Lao'er's own skills?" Monchi asked.

"I don't know," Xu Fu shook his head: "Some people say that he can only preach the scriptures and alchemy, his mouth is more powerful than his fists and feet, and he is a complete charlatan; But some people say that his martial arts and spells are unfathomable, otherwise how can he intimidate a disciple as great as Qixingzi? Either way, however, it is speculation. ”

The head of the lights out said in a calm tone: "I heard Yu Hengxing mention that she was very jealous of Beichen and told me not to fight with her easily. ”

Zhao Liang frowned: "Oh, if you want to say so according to Yu Hengxing, that Beichen is by no means an ordinary person, we still have to make a full estimate." In addition, what is the specific situation of the Taiyi Eternal Life Palace? Where does Beichen live? Where is Yu Hengxing likely to be imprisoned? ”

His question made everyone present look at each other, including Xu Fu and Changqing, who couldn't give an accurate answer for a while.

After being silent for a while, Meng Qi spoke first: "Since everyone is not sure about the enemy's situation, then it is better to send scouts and secretly infiltrate the Taiyi Immortal Palace to investigate." ”

Zhao Liang asked rhetorically: "Are you sure?" Without being noticed by Beichen, find out the reality of the Hall of Eternal Life? ”

Without waiting for Meng Qi to answer, he turned off the lights and said, "General, Taoist warlocks are different from opposing enemy forces. After long-term cultivation, they usually have a keen sense that is different from ordinary people, and the slightest disturbance may reveal their whereabouts. ”

Zheng Luya also added: "What happened in Jingkou Town is not a secret, maybe at this moment, Beichen and Cheng Yun of the Kunlun faction already knew that Shunchen and the others were captured by us, so they naturally raised their hearts of prevention." If we send spies to the Hall of Eternal Life now, maybe the information hasn't been obtained yet, but we will let the family catch us first. ”

Meng Qi agreed with their words in his heart, and was not completely sure about sending spies to the Taiyi Immortal Palace, so he hesitated to Zhao Liang and said: "My lord, I dare not say that it must be safe, but there is no other better way now." ”

"It's better to take a trip down the poor road." The lights out chief volunteered.

Xu Fu objected first: "Forget it, senior brother." Before the last fight, you went to explore the road and almost let the other party put one. If it weren't for Zhao Liangxian's quick reaction, we wouldn't have been able to get off the stage at that time. ”

Hearing this, he couldn't help but blush when he turned off the lights, and immediately remembered that this time he was ambushed by the Kunlun faction outside the city, and it was also because he accidentally exposed his whereabouts in the process of going to find Yu Hengxing. He is more sincere, he has always been Ding is Ding Mao is Mao, and he never likes to brag and pretend to save face, so he glanced at Zhao Liang embarrassedly: "Immortal Chief, what my junior brother said is also right, my kung fu is not very good." ”

Zhao Liang saw the embarrassment of the head of the lights out, and was about to say a few words of relief, but he didn't expect Xiao Hei, who was sitting next to the lights, to say: "It's not that my master is not working, it's that there is no need to bother his old man to go out in person for such a trivial matter." In this way, let me, an apprentice, run for the master. ”

"You?" Meng Qi looked Xiao Hei up and down, and said curiously: "I can't see that Brother Xiao Hei still has the means to go high and hide and hide." ”

Xiao Heimian did not change his color and his heart did not beat, and replied with a big grin: "General Meng, although the skills you said are not a problem for me, but I don't plan to use them this time." Just as Master Fang Cai and Zheng Xiangu were worried about, if Beichen Lao'er was a thief and raised his vigilance, then no matter how clever the spy was, he would be detected. So, I want to swagger and touch the other person's bottom line. ”

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and they didn't know if the child was talking nonsense. I only heard Xiao Hei explain: "My father was an official in the court, and he believed in Huang Lao's mysticism, so his officials and friends also had some friendship with the magicians. The Lord He Bin He I mentioned before often went to the Taiyi Hall of Eternal Life to talk about the scriptures with Beichen Lao'er. When I went to visit him the day before yesterday, I only said that I was visiting Xianyang, but I didn't reveal my true identity, so no matter He Shibo or Beichen, I am afraid they don't know the relationship between me, a junior, and Master. If I go to He Bin and ask him to take me around the Hall of Eternal Life, I will have a chance to find out some useful information. ”

"Have you never shown your face in front of Beichen?" Zheng Luya asked.

Zhao Liang replied for Xiao Hei: "There shouldn't be." When the royal battle was in front of the law, Xiao Hei and Changqing were all waiting outside the palace. Later, I went to Gongzi's Mansion to attend a dinner, and the entourage also arranged another meal, so I didn't have the opportunity to meet Beichen. ”

Changqing continued: "At that banquet, the attachés on both sides also ate separately and did not sit together. I think the housekeeper who came to Gongzi's Mansion was afraid that there would be a conflict between the two of us, and it wouldn't look good to clash face-to-face. After that, Senior Brother Hei has been staying in the contemplation, and he has not had much intersection with the Taiyi Immortal Palace. ”

Zheng Luya nodded and turned to Zhao Liang: "Then there should be no problem in terms of identity, what do you see?" ”

Zhao Liangwu pondered for a moment and asked Xiao Hei: "What excuse are you going to use?" ”

"My father believes in magic and has long planned to let me enter the Daomen, and those uncles also know about it." Xiao Hei replied innocently: "I just said that I want to take the opportunity of coming to Xianyang this time to go to the Palace of Eternal Life to get rid of the immortal spirit, and ask He Shibo to help arrange the arrangements." It doesn't matter if he has time to accompany him, but he can always have the face for me to go shopping in a grand manner. ”

"Well, that makes sense." Zhao Liang agreed: "There have been a lot of rights and wrongs in Xianyang City recently, and it is estimated that Beichen has no energy to pay attention to you." In addition, it was introduced by the minister of the DPRK and China who had a relationship with him, and your background was also clearly explained, so most of them will not be suspicious, and they will only be treated as ordinary visitors. In this way, there is a great opportunity to feel the situation in the Taiyi Immortal Palace. ”

Xu Fu said: "Even if he senses that there is something wrong with Xiao Hei, but because of He Bin's face and no real evidence, it is estimated that Beichen will not be too difficult for him." ”

The head of the lights out looked at Xiao Hei and said gently: "Disciple, although the conditions are favorable, it is still like a tiger's den in Longtan, aren't you afraid?" ”

"There's nothing to be afraid of," Xiao Hei said with a smile, "Master, compared to your old man's experience, what am I?" If you can't even do such a small thing, you really don't have the face to learn from you anymore. ”

Zhao Liang knew in his heart that Xiao Hei, this guy, don't look at him as a big man and three coarse, honest and honest, but he is definitely the kind of master who seems to be stupid and smart, pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger. Let him find out the news, most of the time, no problem. So he nodded and said, "Okay, let's just decide." You go to Lord He's mansion early tomorrow morning, ask him to come forward to help, and arrange a visit to the Taiyi Eternal Life Palace. Once there, be sure to find out the layout and staff, especially those that look suspicious or are of particular concern. ”

Xiao Hei got up and gave his hand and said yes loudly. Zhao Liang saw that the time was not early, and the affairs of Zhao Gao and Beichen could only wait until tomorrow to find out at the earliest before they could make further plans, so he suggested that everyone rest early today.

Xiao Ya was really tired after a day's journey, she stretched her waist and stood up, and instructed Xu Fu: "Wait a while, send dinner directly to Miss Sixue's courtyard, I'll eat there, and go to bed quickly when it's over." As she spoke, she glanced at Zhao Liang narrowly.

Zhao Liang sighed secretly in his heart: Damn, it seems that I have to squeeze in with Xu Fu tonight.
