"Lord Si Shou really looks up to you," Chu Fengge raised his teacup and took a sip of hot tea slightly, his eyes clearly showing jealousy, "He thinks that you will become the most critical person to break the situation in the Lu family's murder house case - you must know that Lord Si Shou, as a high saint, he rarely gives people such a positive evaluation." ”

"However, Lord Chu, many people with a higher realm than me have not been able to solve this case," Gu Xu lowered his head and said with a humble attitude, "I really don't know how capable I am, and I am so valued by Lord Si Shou." ”

Chu Fengge said in a cold tone: "Because according to the available information, we know that this case can not be ——— by brute force In that strange murderous mansion, wisdom is much more important than force. ”

Hearing this, Gu Xu couldn't help but complain in his heart: It turns out that this Lu Clan's murderous mansion is a copy that needs to be solved! It's no wonder that this talented Lord Chu couldn't successfully clear the level in the first place - he doesn't seem to be very smart.

But this simple reason obviously couldn't convince Gu Xu.

"This Lu Clan's murderous mansion can make so many monks at a loss, there must be 'evil spirit' level ghosts in it, and it is likely that there is more than one," Gu Xu continued, "With my current cultivation, in case they suddenly attack, I have no ability to protect myself at all. I'm still young and I don't want to die there. ”

Chu Fengge smiled: "Lord Si Chang had already guessed that you would say that. In terms of protecting your life, he has already made full preparations for you.

"First of all, I will enter the murderous mansion with you, be your assistant and bodyguard, and deal with all the ghosts that want to harm you. If something happens to you inside, I'll be punished by the head. ”

Chu Fengge's words sounded a little yin and yang.

It can be seen that he is not very willing to do this.

Gu Xu raised his head and glanced at Chu Fengge, still feeling insecure in his heart.

He felt that this bodyguard was not reliable at all.

"Second," Chu Fengge paused for a moment, took out a shiny transparent bead from his pocket, handed it to Gu Xu's hand, and said at the same time, "This bead, called the 'Breaking Void Bead', is a very precious life-saving magic weapon specially prepared for you by Lord Si Shou. When your life is in danger, all you need to do is crush it to instantly cross the void and escape anywhere you want to go within a thousand miles. Even if you are trapped in an enemy's formation, or if the enemy uses a spell to block the space, the 'Void Breaker' will still take effect. ”

The last time Chu Fengge escaped from the Lu family's murderous mansion, he used a "Broken Sky Bead".

It's just that he didn't want to mention this embarrassing thing in front of Gu Xu.

Gu Xu took the beads, and finally had a little confidence in his heart.

"Lord Chu, please also be sure to convey my thanks to Lord Si Shou on my behalf," he said sincerely, and then he changed his words and continued to speak in a worried tone, "But I'm still a little worried. Because in the missions I have done in the past, I have encountered some ghosts with control abilities - some can make people faint instantly, some can make people immobilized in place, and some can even turn people into puppets and do things according to their ideas.

"I'm scared, if I encounter this type of ghost, I won't even have a chance to crush the 'Broken Sky Bead', so I can only wait for death silently."

Chu Fengge had heard the head of the department say that Gu Xu's style of doing things had always been very cautious - without being completely sure, he would definitely not act lightly.

It's just that he didn't expect Gu Xu to care about so many details.

"Lord Si Shou has long thought about this," Chu Fengge said as he took out a bracelet made of black jade from his pocket and handed it to Gu Xu, "The name of this bracelet is 'Stand-in Bracelet'. It is capable of defending its owner from a deadly attack from the outside world, while removing all negative effects and control from its owner. As long as you have this magic weapon here, you will definitely have the opportunity to crush the 'Broken Void Bead' to escape for your life. ”

What a good thing!

Gu Xu took the "stand-in bracelet" and sighed in his heart.

"In addition," Chu Fengge continued, "Lord Si Shou will also use the Heavenly Machine Technique to keep an eye on your situation at all times through your 'Divine Machine Token'. If these magic weapons still can't save you, he will come from Luo Jing himself to save your life. ”

Hearing this, Gu Xu couldn't help but be stunned for a second.

At this moment, he simply doubted that he would be the illegitimate son of the head of the division.

"Your Excellency...... He's been too thoughtful," he sighed from the bottom of his heart, "I really can't imagine that a monk with a humble cultivation like me can be so loved by the head of the department......

"Lord Si Shou said that you have the qualifications of a saint," Chu Fengge said expressionlessly, "The help he has given you now is just an investment in you. He hopes that you can grow up as soon as possible and share his worries in the future. ”

"As a monk of the Exorcism Division, it is my duty to share the worries of the Division."

"In addition, Lord Si Tou also mentioned that the Lu Clan's murder house case is a disaster for others, but it is an opportunity for you," Chu Fengge continued, "The ancestor of the Lu Clan once entered the Tao with poetry and painting, and soared to become an immortal. Part of the inheritance he left behind, including the Lu family's heirloom 'Jinghong Pen', is still in that deserted mansion, waiting for the arrival of destined people.

"If you read through the classics, you should know that the 'Amazing Brush' has the ability to embody the images of poetry and painting as a means of killing. Using it to draw talismans can also take the power of your talisman to the next level. ”

"But, Lord Chu, I remember mentioning in the book that after the Lu family in Qingzhou was raided, all the property was returned to the treasury-"

"—That's just worldly possessions," Chu Fengge interrupted him, "As one of the 'Twelve Famous Instruments', the 'Thrilling Pen 'has its own spirituality and is able to choose its own master—even if it is a member of the Lu Clan in Qingzhou, it must be recognized by it in order to exert its power. If it doesn't want to be found, then it hides itself and no one can find it.

"Its previous owner was Lu Shiyao, a young lady of the Lu family, known as the 'Suxue Fairy'. After Lu Shiyao's death, it disappeared.

"The head thinks you can try your luck."

Hearing this, Gu Xu sighed lightly and remained silent.

At this moment, he is quickly calculating the gains and losses in his mind, calculating his input-output ratio in this case-

Input:

1. A lot of time (if it is used for cultivation, it may allow me to break through to the "Yellow Springs Third Song" or even the "Yellow Springs Fourth Song"...... ）；

2. A certain degree of risk;

3. Due to the historical sensitivity of Lu Huan's treason, if I participate in this case, there is a certain probability that I will be involved in the power whirlpool of the Great Qi Dynasty, which is not in line with my plan for indecent development;

……

Harvest:

1. A large number of meritorious deeds;

2. A high-grade spell;

3. The favor of the head of the department;

4. It is possible to become the owner of the Amazing Pen (very small probability);

……

Chu Fengge couldn't help frowning when he saw that he was reluctant to make up his mind.

"Actually, Lord Si also mentioned that there is a reason for you to put aside all your worries and carry out this task willingly."

"What reason?" Gu Xu raised his head and looked at him.

"Chen Jisheng, the Governor of Yishui, the Exorcist Division, had trespassed into the Yishan Forbidden Area without permission before, and unfortunately fell under the Snow Maiden's 'Frost Condensation' curse," Chu Fengge said in a non-fluctuating tone, "This curse will continue to work in his meridians, and over time, it will cause his true yuan to gradually solidify, causing him to stagnate in his future cultivation, and even regress; It also has a significant negative impact on his physical health, causing him to suffer physical and mental torture for a long time and reducing his longevity.

"Lord Si said that the 'Frost Melt' technique that can break the curse of 'Frost Condensation' is hidden in the Lu Clan's murderous mansion-"

"-Lord Chu, why didn't you say such an important thing earlier?" Gu Xu suddenly stood up and interrupted him, "Let's hurry up and go, don't waste any more time." ”

"Let's go? Where to? Seeing the sudden 180-degree reversal of Gu Xu's attitude, Chu Fengge's mind was stunned for a moment.

"Lu's murderous house."
