Originally, he was planning to leave Gucheng in the near future, but suddenly he heard that someone had seen the woman in the portrait, and Rao was Zhou Fan's identity and concentration, so he couldn't help but be shocked.

There is no way, this matter is too important, and Zhou Fan also knows very well that if he can find Qin Shuirou, the benefits that he can bring to himself are simply unimaginable, and it is even possible that he, Zhou Fan, can jump into the dragon gate and go directly to the Holy Palace to take up a post.

Although Zhou Fan's cultivation is used to go to the Holy Palace, he can only be a deacon at most, and he is an elder in the Baimo Holy Sect, but the deacon of the Holy Palace and the elder of the Baimo Holy Sect, who is the nobler between the two, I am afraid everyone knows.

Take the deacon of the Holy Palace who sat in the Baimo Holy Sect this time, only the Dao King Realm cultivated, but because he was the deacon of the Holy Palace, even if the sect master of the Baimo Holy Sect saw it, he didn't dare to be disrespectful in the slightest, this is the advantage of being in a powerful sect, not looking at the face of the monk, but also looking at the face of the Buddha.

As we all know, from top to bottom, there are ancestors, holy sons, holy deities, elders, and deacons, and the elders can only be held by semi-saint cultivators, which goes without saying, but deacons are relatively complicated.

In the Holy Palace, there are many deacons, and at the same time, they can be cultivated from the Dao King Realm to the Dao Emperor Realm, the Dao King Realm can become a deacon, and the Dao Emperor Realm can also become a deacon.

Under normal circumstances, there are only two main sources of the Holy Palace, one is recruited from outside, and after a series of assessments, you can become a deacon of the Holy Palace, and the other way is that a disciple is promoted.

There is a clear rule in the Holy Palace that once a disciple reaches the age and does not meet the talent standard, he will be restrained and turned into a deacon, responsible for some miscellaneous affairs in the Holy Palace.

It's just that although the deacons of the Holy Palace have both the Dao Emperor Realm and the Dao King Realm, you don't have to think about it to know that the treatment between the two is very different, and the treatment of one Dao Emperor Realm deacon is enough to be worth the treatment of ten Dao King Realm deacons.

Zhou Fan knew something about the Holy Palace, so he knew very well that if he could really find Qin Shuirou, then he would be able to do it, thinking that if he could enter the Holy Palace and become a deacon, it would definitely be a soaring rhythm, and even if he saw a sage like the Sect Master of the Baimo Holy Sect, he Zhou Fan would be completely fearless.

The excitement in the man's heart, Zhou Fan looked at the disciple in front of him with an excited and nervous face, and asked again, "You said that someone has seen the woman in the portrait?" Quick, let me tell you more. ”

Not daring to be careless, Zhou Fan immediately ordered the disciple to explain the matter in detail, seeing this, the disciple did not dare to hide it, and told the matter truthfully.

According to what this disciple said, they are responsible for visiting Gucheng these days, although the Gu family has not seen the woman in the portrait, but Zhou Fan and they obviously can't give up the search because of the words of the Gu family, so since they arrived in Gucheng, Zhou Fan has sent people to start looking in the city.

Speaking of which, this is just a process, and Zhou Fan himself has no hope from beginning to end.

However, during the visit in the past few days, the disciple in front of him came to the home of an alchemist living in Gucheng today, as usual, this disciple showed Qin Shuirou's portrait to this alchemist, thinking that it was also in vain, but who would have thought that after staring at the portrait for a while, this alchemist actually said that he seemed to have seen this woman.

As soon as these words came out, the disciple was immediately stunned, and then he didn't dare to hesitate, and returned with the alchemist as soon as possible, and reported the situation to Zhou Fan.

After listening to the disciple's words, Zhou Fan said with a solemn face.

"Where is this alchemist now?"

"It's in the front yard." The disciple replied.

"Bring him to me." Zhou Fan said.

Since this alchemist said that he had seen the woman in the portrait, Zhou Fan naturally wanted to see it in person, after the initial shock and excitement, Zhou Fan also forced himself to calm down, now is not the time to be happy, before seeing Qin Shuirou with his own eyes, everything cannot be decided.

urged this disciple to bring the alchemist to see him, and immediately, the disciple withdrew from the courtyard, but soon turned back again, but this time, behind him was an old man with gray hair, this person should be the alchemist.

Bringing people in, Zhou Fan sent the disciple away, and then looked at the white-haired old man in front of him, Zhou Fan said to the old man with a gentle attitude.

"Old man, please be seated."

is so polite to an old man, Zhou Fan naturally does not do this because this old man is an alchemist, to put it bluntly, this old man, whether it is cultivation or alchemy level, is not enough for Zhou Fan to face it, the reason why he is so polite is entirely because this old man may know clues about Qin Shuirou, which makes Zhou Fan very polite to him.

Personally beckoned the old man to sit down, and the two sat opposite each other in the courtyard, Zhou Fan tried to keep calm, and said with a gentle smile on his face.

"Old man, have you seen the woman in this portrait?"

Zhou Fan also held a portrait of Qin Shuirou in his hand, pointed to the old man and asked, hearing this, the old man nodded, and then said with some apprehension.

"I have indeed seen this woman, but when I look at her portrait, although her appearance is exactly the same, her expression is completely different, so I am not sure." Hearing this, the old man said truthfully.

The appearance is the same, but the temperament is different, hearing this, Zhou Fan's eyes flashed a different color, but as long as there are clues, he can't give up, so Zhou Fan is still ready to go in person, and see the person in the old man's mouth first.

Thinking of this, Zhou Fan also asked the old man, "Then I wonder if the old man knows where this woman is now?" Or where did the old man see this woman? ”

"This woman is in the Gu family, a month ago, I was ordered by Gu Le Gongzi to go to the Gu family to treat a patient who thought he was seriously injured, and it was the woman in this portrait, but unfortunately, my realm was too low, and in the end it didn't play a role." The old man said truthfully.

As an alchemist who is still well-known in Gu City, this old man was invited by Gu Le to treat Qin Shuirou more than a month ago, but at that time, Qin Shuirou's injuries were very serious, so this old man had nothing to do, and in the end he could only leave with apologies, and then, Gu Le found a well-known alchemist from other cities, which saved Qin Shuirou's life.

But it was because of that time that the old man saw Qin Shuirou, and it was precisely because of this that Zhou Fan got clues about Qin Shuirou.

I'm afraid that even Gu Le himself didn't expect that he would be so secretive that he forgot that this old man had come to heal Qin Shuirou.
