A horse-drawn carriage drives down a downtown street.

The horse is a tall horse, with a dark and supple coat and bright eyes.

The car is a high-roof carriage made of ebony, which is expensive to build and low-key luxury.

Sitting in the carriage with his eyes closed was a middle-aged man in a white robe with a gloomy face.

This person's surname is Bai, his name is Yongyan, he is a guest in the palace of the King of Shu, he is good at alchemy and medicine, and he is trusted by the King of Shu.

In addition, he also has another identity - the deputy helmsman of Luzhou City of the Holy White Lotus Herringbone Gate.

Da-da-da-da.

The horse's hooves are crisp, even on the streets of the city.

Suddenly, Bai Yongyan opened his eyes and whispered to the coachman in front of him through the rolling curtains: "Stop in front of Jilin Hall." ”

Jilintang is the name of a pharmacy, and every once in a while, Bai Yongyan, who is a monk, will go to the pharmacy to buy medicinal herbs.

The carriage slowly stopped, Bai Yongyan stepped out of the carriage, looked up at the yellow gourd hanging under the plaque of Jilintang, and casually ordered the coachman to stay outside the door for a while, and he stepped into the pharmacy.

The shopkeeper of the pharmacy saw that the old customer was extremely enthusiastic, asked the guy to greet a few customers, walked out of the counter and stepped forward quickly, and said respectfully: "Mr. Bai, you are here, what medicine are you going to grab today?" ”

Bai Yongyan didn't have any expression on his face, but said lightly: "Parsnip, wolfberry leaves, Poria cocos, three-year-old tiger blood vine..."

After the name of the medicinal herb was reported, the shopkeeper frowned and recalled, and hesitated: "It's really unfortunate, the three-year-old tiger blood vine has been sold out here, why don't I take you to the warehouse to have a look?" There were a few two-year-old ones. ”

"Hmm."

Bai Yongyan nodded, and under the leadership of the pharmacy shopkeeper, he walked up to the second floor and came to an empty room.

There was no one left and right, and the shopkeeper of the pharmacy bowed respectfully to Bai Yongyan, and said softly: "Mr. Bai, Master Song is waiting for you inside." ”

"Open the door."

Bai Yongyan said indifferently.

This Jilin Hall is the property of the Luzhou branch of the White Lotus Sect, and the shopkeeper of the pharmacy and the guys in the store are all White Lotus believers.

Usually, they operate normally, hang pots to help the world, sell medicine to save people,

But if the Holy White Lotus gave an order, they could also poison the medicine with a fanatical face, and even release poison to pollute the water source of the entire Luzhou.

Bai Yongyan, as a guest of the Shu Palace, has a special identity and cannot be exposed.

Whenever the superior wants to contact him, he will quietly change the size, color, and pattern of the gourd hanging at the door of Jilin Hall.

Meet in the secret room of the Jilin Hall.

The shopkeeper removed the key from his waist and opened a secret door.

The secret door led to another room, where several people were already seated.

Song Wei, the helmsman of the Holy White Lotus Luzhou rudder, several deputy helmsmen of the same level as Bai Yongyan, and... Two young women dressed in white?

Bai Yongyan's heart moved, he seemed to have seen these two women somewhere.

He stepped into the secret door, and as the door closed, he also remembered the two women, who turned out to be the maids beside the White Lotus Holy Son.

'Why did they come?' ’

Bai Yongyan was a little puzzled in his heart, the forces of the White Lotus Sect in Luzhou City were basically the private army of a certain Dharma protector.

The Dharma Protector did not deal with the Holy Son, and there were several frictions and conflicts.

How could the maid of the Holy Son appear in Luzhou? And it seems that Song Wei, the helmsman of Luzhou, is still talking to them very happily?

Song Jie is not afraid that someone will report to the protector of the law and remove him from his position?

Or has the Dharma Protector given up competition with the Son and coexisted peacefully?

Bai Yongyan's mind was in a hurry, but there was no expression on his face.

Song Yu saw Bai Yongyan approaching, stood up and greeted him with a smile, "Mr. Bai is here, please take a seat." ”

Bai Yongyan sat on the chair and arched his hand, his eyes swept over the two maids, and asked knowingly: "Helmsman, these two are..."

Song Wei introduced: "These two Holy Sect sisters are the handmaidens of my Holy Son. This time I came to Luzhou to share the helm with us in Luzhou and discuss the auspicious affairs of the Annan Mission. ”

"It's... Haven't things already been discussed? ”

Bai Yongyan hesitated: "After the Annan delegation enters Luzhou, it will go to Yongling Temple to settle down, and the next day the king of Shu will hold a banquet in the palace to welcome the Annan mission.

At that time, we should cooperate with the outside world, and at the end of the banquet, we will raid the palace of the king of Shu and forcibly take away the iron cage where Xiangrui is imprisoned. ”

The top management of the White Lotus Sect attached great importance to this plan, and began to plan it a few months ago.

In order to increase the probability of success, the Holy Sect Protector did not distribute supplies to the Luzhou rudder, trying to arm the participants in the plan to the teeth.

"That's right."

Song Yu nodded and glanced at the two maids, "It's just that something is wrong now..."

Bai Yongyan frowned and asked, "What's the situation?" ”

"We want to be closer to the scene of what happened,"

Song Yu said slowly: "It's not that I don't believe you, it's just that if you can really be on the scene, you will definitely be able to increase the probability of success of the operation."

So, can you arrange a place for us at the banquet? ”

"What?"

Bai Yongyan frowned, stood up and said in a low voice: "Impossible! The Shu Palace's Mansion is heavily guarded, even I, a guest who has served in the palace for ten years, only have the opportunity to attend the dinner.

There is no hope for an extra seat. ”

His gaze engraved with dissatisfaction and suspicion jumped back and forth between Song Yu and the two maids, "Lord Song Helm, is this the meaning of the Dharma Protector, or is it your own idea?" ”

"It's my own thoughts."

Song Yu sighed, glanced at the maid, and sighed: "Since you can't arrange seats, you have to use the second plan." ”

"The second plan?"

Bai Yongyan faintly felt that something was wrong, and all the eyes in the narrow room were attached to him, cold, indifferent, as if they were going to engulf him.

"yes."

Song Yu nodded, "Look, can you take the initiative to give up this face, let us replace you, and enter the Shu Palace..."

While speaking, Song Yu's face was also quietly changing.

Forehead, eyes, nose bridge, mouth and ears, hair...

Until the last word was finished, Song Yu's face turned out to be exactly the same as Bai Yongyan.

"You!"

Bai Yongyan sat up from the chair and looked at Song Yu in horror, "You imitated my face?" ”

"It's not just about imitating your whole face."

Song Yu shook his head and showed a strange smile, "Since you don't want to cooperate with me well, then I have no choice but to invite you to go to hell." ”

The face, body, and limbs of the two dignified and noble maids, as well as several other Luzhou rudder and deputy helmsmen,

A steady stream of fine green plant fibers gushes out.

Endless vines fell to the ground, spreading rapidly along the floor, filling all the cracks in the room,

The screams of Bai Yongyan and the thunderous flames that burst out were all sealed in the narrow secret room.
