Chapter Eighty-Nine: Borrowing Your Life
After the old man left, the person who had gone to prepare the medicinal materials and brought them with him could no longer hold back the doubts in his heart, and couldn't help but say, "My lord, is it worth it?"
"It doesn't matter if it's worth it or not. This is just to stabilize him, so that he will have a good impression of us, which will be beneficial to our actions, and if he can take the initiative to bring it to the person who provides him with the elixir, it will be the best, and even if he can't, after he has a good impression of us, we can use this good feeling of him to do many things. Steward Zhao said with a cold face.
What he didn't say was that he had once again let the shadow follow the old man in secret, after the shadow of the last miss, he would definitely succeed this time, as long as the shadow succeeded in finding the person who provided him with the pill behind the old man, he would immediately lead someone to capture and kill the old man and that person, so that not only did it solve a big problem, but even the batch of medicinal materials sent out before could be fully recovered, and it could also get a lot of benefits from the person who provided the pill from the old man, a person who was at least a sixth-order physician would always have no shortage of pills on his body。
It's just a pity that his calculation is doomed to fail, although the remnant old man has no insight into his calculation, but the remnant old man already knows that it is the Heavenly Eagle Gate that secretly controls the Liuyun Sect to seize the control of the Bright Moon Empire, and has a deep wariness of the Wanbao Auction House, which is a wealth-collecting institution set up by the Heavenly Eagle Gate on the mainland, and will definitely not let Steward Zhao's calculation succeed.
......
After walking out of the Wanbao Auction House, the remnant old man was still the same as the last time he left the Wanbao Auction House, wandering around in Mingyue City without a goal, the only difference was that under the cover of the wide cloak, his gaze inadvertently swept over a shadow not far from him, and the corners of his mouth set off a somewhat cold arc under the cover of the cloak, but no one could see it.
Shortly after entering the waiting room arranged by Wanbao Auction House. The old man noticed that the person who had followed him last time had quietly come to the room, hiding in the shadows in the corner of the room and observing him secretly. And after he left Wanbao Auction House, the other party hid in the shadows and followed him.
The old man knew that the other party wanted to find the person who provided him with the pill by following him, and then hunt him out. The old man didn't know where the other party got so much confidence, and after he threw him away last time, his mother still had the confidence to follow him again, but it didn't matter anymore. Since I could get rid of him last time, I can do the same this time.
It's just that last time, because I had to go to the Wanbao Auction House again to collect the profits from the auction of the pills, and I wasn't sure what the other party's purpose was in tracking me, so I just got rid of the other party and didn't do anything else; Decide to make a move and kill the tracker who is following you.
Killing such a tracking master, the other party should feel pain!" thought to himself.
Hidden in the shadows of the shadow of the old man secretly tracking, the heart is ten thousand points of caution, dare not have the slightest carelessness, the last tracking failure scene is still vivid, that is the biggest stain in his life, this is tracking is an opportunity to wash away this stain. If you miss this opportunity, you don't know when you will have the opportunity to wash away this stain. Maybe there will be no chance left in his life, and who knows when he will appear again?
After the last tracking failure, Shadow recalled the tracking process over and over again, analyzed why he failed over and over again in his mind, and studied every action of the old man, hoping that he would not be confused by the old man in the next tracking. Successful tracking to the end. After three days and countless drills in his mind, he thought that he had a comprehensive understanding of the disabled old man, and he would definitely succeed this time.
Sure enough, this time, although the old man who walked ahead. When you think he is going east, he changes direction, and when you turn around and chase west, you will find that he has gone south...... But these could no longer confuse him, and he easily saw through them, and he bit the whereabouts of the old man tightly, always following behind the old man.
After wandering aimlessly in Bright Moon City for an hour, the remnant old man felt the dark shadow that had always followed him not far behind him and merged with the surrounding shadows, and the corners of his mouth under the cloak outlined a trace of evil arc, and then, following the flow of people who passed into the distance, leaving no trace.
Seeing this, the shadow hidden in the shadows quietly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He knew that after this hour of "wandering", the other party thought that he had thrown off all the people who might be secretly stalking, and he could go to his destination with confidence. As long as you don't lose the other party on the road after that, you will definitely be able to find the other party's destination, complete your own mission, and wash away the stain.
Even the other party in front of him was wary and cautiously got rid of the stalker who may not exist and successfully tracked it, and then the other party has let down his guard this part of the way, can he still fail?
The remnant old man walked all the way to the outside of Mingyue City, and was very careful along the way, trying to eliminate the traces left by himself, and did it perfectly, so that there was no trace left for the other party to follow. Of course, this is deliberately done by the old man, just to paralyze the shadow behind him, so that the shadow can follow him with confidence.
The old man came to a remote place outside Mingyue City, far away from Mingyue City, and stopped.
This is a valley surrounded by mountains, even if there are violent energy fluctuations in the valley, it will be blocked by the surrounding peaks, and it will not leak to the outside at all, so there is no need to worry about attracting the attention of the strong;
Seeing the old man take himself to such a secret place, Shadow was overjoyed, and took it for granted that this was the destination of the old man, and the person who provided him with the elixir was here, and as long as he was sure that the other party was here, and brought the location of this place back to tell the adults, his task was completed.
But that's not the case, this place is also the first time for the old man to come, the old man just wants to find a secret place to solve the shadow behind him secretly, and try not to attract the attention of the strong people in Mingyue City when fighting, so after leaving Mingyue City, he went to a remote and uninhabited place, but he didn't expect to find such a place by accident.
Just when the shadow was expecting the old man to go to see the person who provided him with the elixir, the old man said something that surprised him, "After following me for so long, you can show up!"
The shadow was nervous, not knowing why the other party said this, whether he really discovered him, or whether he deliberately deceived himself and lured him to show up. If he found himself, why would he take himself to such a secret place? Thinking of this, Shadow firmly believed that this was the other party's deception, just to lure the stalker who might follow him to appear, and he couldn't help but admire the other party's thoughtfulness.
"If you haven't shown up yet, do you want me to squeeze you out in person?"
The other party's dry voice sounded again, but he had already decided that this was the shadow of the stalker who might follow the other party by deception, but he did not worry at all, but looked at the old man with interest.
"Since you don't come out, then I'll come out better than you!" After speaking, the old man raised his left hand and slapped a palm towards the shadow where the shadow was hidden, although this palm was not very powerful, but the speed was fast and fast.
Of course, this power is not very large, and the power of this palm is enough to kill anyone below the king level, even an ordinary king level will be injured and embarrassed.
But don't forget, the shadow is hidden in the shadows, he didn't expect the old man to really find himself, nor did he think that the old man would suddenly make a move and slap a palm at himself;
"Boom!" The two palms intersected, and suddenly a dazzling white light erupted in the void between the two, and energy ripples rippled in all directions, like a strong wind blowing in all directions, blowing up flowers and debris in the sky.
The shadow could no longer hide his figure, and emerged from the shadow, standing opposite the old man, looking at the old man with a solemn face, and said, "How did you find me?"
"Is it difficult to find you?" said the old man in an indifferent and disdainful tone, "How can you not find out if you are followed by a nasty mouse!"
Hearing this, Shadow's face became even more ugly, and the anger in his heart was already burning with such contempt for his most proud ability, but he still suppressed his anger and said, "So Your Excellency found me last time, and this time you deliberately brought me here?"
"You're not too stupid! I know I brought you here on purpose. "The old man said.
"I wonder why Your Excellency brought me here?" asked Shadow, who had a bad premonition, his eyes flickering, and he secretly searched for a way to escape.
"It's nothing, it's just that your Wanbao Auction House is worried about my life, and I want to borrow your life!" said the old man.
"I don't know what you're talking about. Hearing this, the shadow's heart jumped, but he didn't expect the other party to know this, and quickly denied it, "But my life is not so easy to borrow." If you want my life, it's up to you!"
After speaking, the sword was instantly held in his hand, and he killed the old man with the sword, he knew that since the other party dared to lead him here, he had every chance of killing himself, and only by taking the initiative to attack and fighting for his life could he have a glimmer of life, and only then could he have hope of escaping and transmitting the news back to the adults.
