Chapter 4, Detective Xu Tao.
It's a very interesting thing to bargain with the boiling water frog.|151Kanshu.com pure text|.|
It is true that the water in my hand is less than 100,000 years old, and it is estimated to be more than 50,000 years old.
Of course, the boiling water frog was not satisfied, but after some bargaining, I closed the deal with three 5,000-year-old superlative demons and this 50,000-year-old Neidan.
Then, set off to find Xu Tao, a spiritual detective in Shanghai.
Xu Tao's reputation is still very loud in the circle.
Because, in his hands, he did handle a few big cases,
One is that the Tianbao Pavilion of Longhu Mountain was stolen that year, and the Tianbao Pavilion is the place where the secret treasure of Longhu Mountain is hidden, and the stolen is a pair of jade lion spirit buckles, which are worth a lot of money, not to mention, and they are also extremely powerful magic weapons. Longhu Mountain invited a very good detective to investigate, and in the end, Xu Tao, who was unknown at the time, found out that the prisoner was a prisoner who was a prisoner of Tianbao Pavilion. This incident made Xu Tao famous.
The other is that there was a mistake in the Maoshan Ghost Refining Hall, and the ghosts that had been sealed by the Ghost Refining Hall for several days escaped to make trouble, although the ghosts were recaptured, but they couldn't find out who destroyed the enchantment of the Ghost Refining Hall. In the end, Xu Tao came out and found out that he was a rebel who had been expelled from the mountain gate by Maoshan, and took revenge on him because he had been on an errand in the Ghost Refining Hall back then.
After this incident, Xu Tao's name immediately resounded throughout the cultivation world.
Since then, this person has also handled several major cases, all of which have been solved beautifully, and his reputation has soared.
Xu Tao settled in Shanghai, of course, many detectives like to settle in Shanghai, a coastal city like Guangzhou.
Because of this kind of place, firstly, it is densely populated, and secondly, it is possible to get in touch with new things from abroad. Make it easy for them to do business.
Xu Tao's spiritual detective office is located in a Grade A office building.
There is a big sign hanging at the door: Xu Tao Feng Shui.
This type of brand is what the gods like to use, and most of them do a lot of similar work.
Help the cultivation world to solve cases, and help mortals see feng shui.
When I arrived, Lan Da was already waiting for me at the door. This time he was the only one who came, and the other four did not follow.
After seeing me coming, he immediately bowed, "The junior didn't know that the senior was a half-immortal master, and he was offended, and he looked at the half-immortal Haihan." ”
Now that I have become a half-immortal, I am also known to everyone in the circle. The cultivation world said that Tongtian would rise because of the presence of two demi-immortals.
I nodded slightly at Lan Da and said with a smile, "It doesn't have to be like this, let's go in." ”
Lan Da followed behind, still very obedient, which made me look helpless.
Demi-immortals are to monks what national leaders are to ordinary people. It is usually an honor to meet a demi-immortal, not to mention that now he is fortunate to travel with a demi-immortal.
Sitting in the conference room of Xu Tao's Feng Shui Institute, with the tea handed over by the front desk lady, I looked at the surrounding layout.
From the portraits, plants, tables and chairs, and even the colors, all of them are in line with feng shui and gossip, which can be said to be extremely professional layout.
This also shows that Xu Tao is different, he is not a charlatan, not like the so-called feng shui master I saw in Hong Kong before.
Soon, the door to the conference room was opened, and a man with glasses, who was not tall, and was white and clean, walked in.
He was dressed in a pure black vest, jeans, and a white long-sleeved T-shirt, and he looked very young, but his eyes were deep, as if he could see through people.
When he saw me, he immediately smiled, walked over quickly, shook my hand, and presented me with a business card.
Such a formulaic action made me stunned for a while.
"Xu Tao didn't know that Tietian was coming, and he missed the distance, and he hoped to forgive his sins."
Xu Tao repeatedly confessed.
After the two sides sat down, I spoke directly for Lan Da.
"Mr. Xu Tao, this time, I came on behalf of Lan Da, because the brute beast Neidan was taken away by me, and the five brothers couldn't reach the price you offered. Therefore, Tie had the courage to ask for a favor, and hoped that Mr. Xu Tao would change his bid. ”
I spoke very politely.
After hearing this, Xu Tao thought for a moment, and immediately said with a smile: "Since it is Lord Tietian Half-Immortal who intercedes, then I naturally will not embarrass them." That's good, I'm also very interested in such a strange thing happening in the Ten Thousand Beasts Gate this time, so I'll scout for Lan Da for free, hoping that my intervention can help. ”
Xu Tao's words surprised Lan Da. But it made me wonder.
This Xu Tao is actually willing to help Lan Da investigate this matter for free, this is also a bit too righteous, is it because of me, a half-immortal? Deliberately put me in a face? It's really human.
But all in all, if Xu Taoken helps, then this matter has a better ending.
I was about to retire, but I heard Xu Tao say something to keep me.
"Can Lord Tie Tian stay for a while, I want to invite you to a light meal."
I just wanted to refuse, but I heard Xu Tao say: "About Bai Fan beside you, I have something I want to tell you." ”
I frowned, has something to do with Bai Fan? Does this Xu Tao know something?
The thought of leaving, just now, was dispelled by me. It seems that this meal still has to be eaten.
The light meal was not long, and Xu Tao didn't say anything about Bai Fan during the banquet, but just said a lot of secret anecdotes about the cultivation world.
I didn't ask questions, I just waited for him to come out on his own.
"Lord Tie Tian's concentration is really good, this hour, I didn't say anything about Bai Fan, but you didn't force me to ask."
Xu Tao suddenly said with a smile.
"If you want to say it, you will say it."
I replied blandly.
"Let's get down to business, did you ever think that Bai Fan would be a spy."
Xu Tao came up and threw me a question.
My heart is calm, about the matter of the spy, I had already thought about it when I brought Bai Fan back when I first brought him back, if he was really a spy, then our trip to the underworld would not end so smoothly. Although Hu Motian's strength reached the throne in the end, Bai Fan did not defect.
I shook my head at Xu Tao and replied firmly, "He can't be a spy in the underworld." ”
Xu Tao took a sip of wine and said with a smile: "I didn't say that he was a spy in the underworld, what if he was a spy in the Tang Sect?" ”
Xu Tao's words made me frown, and my expression gradually became serious. "Impossible, he has nothing to do with the Tang Sect, and if the Tang Sect wants to take my life, there is no need to rely on a young man next to me. Back then, Tang Lingfeng could kill me if he shot directly, so why rely on a teenager. ”
I categorically rejected Xu Tao's words.
Xu Tao didn't care about the coldness of my voice at all, and said with a smile: "I'll only say one thing, you can decide for yourself." A large part of the reason why Bai Fan was wanted by the cultivation world back then was not because he killed a lot of people in the cultivation world for the sake of chaos, the cultivation world was already cruel, there were too many examples of you killing me and I killing you, and it was even more so back then. Have you ever thought that the cultivation world would collectively want a teenager because of such a thing as murder? ”
Xu Tao's words were like an awl stuck into my heart at once.
But his words weren't over yet.
"I checked the information, the reason why Bai Fan was wanted by the cultivation world back then was because of one thing, that is, he killed his lover. And his lover was Chen Yu, a saint recognized by the entire cultivation world back then. The information shows that Chen Yu was beautiful and holy like moonlight. She is the goddess in the hearts of the male monks in the entire cultivation world, and she is the most optimistic junior in the eyes of many monks of the older generation. However, Chen Yu unexpectedly announced that he was going to marry Bai Fan, who was unknown, of course, Bai Fan hadn't killed so many people for Bastard at that time. The entire cultivation world was against it, but Chen Yu still insisted on marrying. As a result, on the night of the wedding, a scream pierced the entire sky, and when people arrived, Chen Yu was already dead, while Bai Fan held a red candle in his hand, lit the entire newlywed cave room, and disappeared with a cruel smile in the flames. Because of this incident, Bai Fan's name was wanted for decades. The older generation wanted to die when they saw him. ”
My brows furrowed, Bai Fan hadn't told me about this, and I hadn't heard of it. Moreover, what Bai Fan told me was that the only girl he ever loved was a girl named Mushroom, not this so-called saint Chen Yu.
"How did you hear about this?"
I asked.
Xu Tao smiled slightly and said: "I have my channels, but this matter is true, if you don't believe it, you can ask the older generation of monks yourself when the time comes, you will know a little bit, I also want to persuade you." In addition, Lord Tietian, tomorrow at 10 o'clock in the morning, we will meet at Shanghai South Railway Station and take the train to Longhu Mountain. So, I'll take my leave. ”
Xu Tao finished settling the account and left in a hurry.
But it was difficult for me to calm down, and when I slowly walked out of the restaurant, I saw Bai Fan standing in the shade of a tree waiting for me.
So handsome, clean, plain, I can't see a little murder or a little blood.
"Bai Fan."
I opened my mouth to call him.
He looked up and smiled at me.
There was a hint of friendship in that smile.
I secretly told myself: since I think of him as a brother, then don't doubt him.
"Let's go Bai Fan, go home and take care of my clothes, and set off tomorrow, a trip to Longhu Mountain!"
Bai Fan smiled again, didn't speak, and quietly followed my footsteps. 151 Kanshu.com .
