Chapter 1373: Xu Fu
After leaving Tianle Village, Richard did not return to Drum Mountain, but teleported to Tsing Yi Building. The strength shown by the master of Tianmen when he fought with Nameless made him faintly uneasy, and he wanted to go back to Tsing Yi Tower to have a look, but he had found some clues about Tianmen.
So far, no one knows if the Heavenly Gate has any other purpose, and if so, what their purpose is.
Since appearing on the rivers and lakes, Tianmen has been flexing his muscles again and again, intentionally or unintentionally, which makes Richard feel a little uneasy.
If the Heavenly Gate really has any purpose, then it must be prevented, at least to know what they want to do. It is often too late to wait for the crocodile to surface and launch an offensive.
After returning to Tsing Yi Building, Richard walked quickly to the study. I saw Huo Xiu sitting behind the desk, with two thick stacks of files on his left and right hands.
Hearing the sound of pushing the door, Huo Xiu raised his head to look at Richard, put down the file in his hand and stood up; "You came just in time, the news just came back, the Full Moon Villa was infiltrated by a mysterious person, and the magic knife Ding Peng fought with them to repel the incoming enemy."
"According to the intelligence, there are three infiltrators, one is good at light skills, one is a weapon that looks like a knife but not a knife, a sword and not a sword, and a strong man. Nearly one-third of the buildings in the Full Moon Villa were destroyed, and most of them were because of this strong man. ”
Richard's eyes narrowed, and he immediately guessed the identities of these three people, "Tie Wuji." They went to the Blood Cliff, but the Blood Cliff was not in the Full Moon Villa at that time, and they were discovered by the Demon Knife Ding Peng, so they had to retreat. ”
Huo Xiu muttered in a low voice: "That kid in the east said that Shangguan Jinhong's disappearance is inseparable from the Heavenly Gate Master, and now Tie Wuji has infiltrated the Blood Cliff again. It seems that this Heavenly Gate Master is really determined to gather the seven weapons. Merely... Is there really a dragon in this world? ”
If this had been said in the previous footage, Richard would never have believed that there were dragons in the world of rivers and lakes. However, after obtaining phoenix blood from the treasure house of the Great Sui Palace, going to the phoenix nest under the Phoenix Temple in Luofengpo, and experiencing the phoenix nest copy, and personally confirming the connection between the phoenix nest copy and the world of rivers and lakes, Richard's opinion on this issue has also changed slightly.
In the world of rivers and lakes, there are fire unicorns, phoenixes, and smiles have also appeared, indicating that the dragon turtle really existed. There are already three of the four great beasts, and there are dragons... It seems that it is not impossible, or even very likely.
"Tuk-tuk."
A few crisp knocks interrupted Richard's thoughts, and Huo Xiu said softly outside the study, "Come in." ”
A steward in the Tsing Yi Building pushed the door in, stood at the door with a respectful attitude, bent down and arched his hand: "My lord, there is an old man from outside the Tsing Yi Building, who wants to see Ximen Shaoxia by name." ”
"Old man?"
Huo Xiu subconsciously looked at Richard, and Richard was also puzzled in his heart, although he knew a lot of seniors in the rivers and lakes, but there were not many who looked old. There are only two Dugu Sword and Wuyazi.
The key is that according to the temper of these two people, if there is something that should be sent to call him over, how could he come to Tsing Yi Lou in person?
Richard wondered, "Did he say who he was?" ”
The steward shook his head and said: "That little old man didn't say it, but looking at his dress, he looks like a fortune teller, and he doesn't dress very well, he is probably a charlatan, I don't know where I heard about your name as a young man, and I came to swagger and deceive." ”
Hearing the steward's words, Richard immediately concluded in his heart that the person who came was definitely not Wuyazi or Dugu Jian, although Wuyazi was proficient in the art of divination, but he would never dress up like this.
Huo Xiu waved his hand and said, "Since he is an ordinary warlock, then tell him that Simon Kid is not here, just give him a little silver and send him away." ”
At this moment, an old laugh suddenly appeared in the study, "Ximen Gua is obviously here, but you said he was not there." Mr. Huo is so liing, but he is a little disrespectful. ”
Richard and Huo Xiu were shocked at the same time, only to see a rickety figure, a thin face, a kind smile, and a complexion like loess. He had a yellowed cloth bag on his sword, and in his hand he held a bamboo pole that was a head taller than him, and on the bamboo pole was a banner with the words "Iron Mouth God Counting" written on it.
The steward was shocked, "How did you get in?" Get out! Get me out! ”
As he spoke, he was going to push the old man. However, the old man stood in place like a green pine, even if the steward used his strength to feed, his face was flushed, and he could not push him in the slightest.
Huo Xiu's eyes were extremely solemn, he knew that the guards in this Tsing Yi Building, in addition to the patrol team on the open side, there were countless secret sentinels in secret. This old man was able to bypass them unconsciously and come to the study located in the depths of the Tsing Yi Building, this ability may not be even if he steals the saint and picks the stars now!
What's more, the old man in front of him actually revealed his identity as the chief scoop on the one hundred and eighth floor of Tsing Yi in one bite! This identity cannot be known to anyone other than Richard and the Unknown Squad and a limited number of people!
In other words, if this old man was really just an ordinary charlatan, or even a charlatan, there was no way to know his true identity!
Thinking of this, Huo Xiu couldn't help but be a little polite when he looked at the old man's demeanor, and asked softly, "May I ask who Your Excellency is?" ”
The old man smiled and said, "My name is Xu Fu." ”
Huo Xiu said: "This is really a good name, in the past, there was a famous monk in the Qin Dynasty named Xu Fu, who was proficient in pharmacology, and served as the imperial physician of the Qin Emperor, and later was ordered by the Qin Emperor to find the elixir of life, but he was missing. ”
Xu Fu smiled and said, "The Xu Fu you said is me." ”
Huo Xiu's face suddenly froze, and he forced a smile: "Brother Xu is really good at laughing, the Qin Dynasty has been more than a thousand years away from now, how can anyone live for so long." ”
At the same time, Huo Xiu couldn't help muttering in his heart, could this person really be a charlatan, or maybe he didn't know what kind of madness he had in his brain? Otherwise, how can you say that you are a character more than a thousand years ago?
Xu Fu looked at Richard and smiled, "I'm here for you today." ”
Richard asked softly, "I don't know why my uncle is here?" ”
"For my unsuccessful apprentice, Shakti. Oh yes, you may not have heard of his name, but I said that he is another identity and you will know. ”
Xu Fu's words paused, and he smiled: "He is the Heavenly Gate Master you know." ”
Richard and Huo Xiu's faces changed drastically at the same time, and Richard was shocked that this old man actually said that the master of the Heavenly Gate was his apprentice, Emperor Shakti... Shakti... Is this the name of the Master of the Heavenly Gate?
And in Huo Xiu's heart, he could almost conclude that Xu Fu must have some kind of madness.
