Chapter 119: Three Days
Qi Xuansu released his true qi, sucked the leaf cage of the Lei Gong pot into his palm, put down the candlestick, opened the lid of the pot, and there was indeed a rolled up note inside.
At the same time, Qi Xuansu once again smelled the unique smell of the Lei Gong Pot.
The note had a name written on it: Tsukirei.
At that moment, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps outside the door.
Qi Xuansu put the note in his sleeve and turned to look.
I saw a lantern floating from the hallway outside the door.
"Surround me." A stern voice immediately silenced the whole place, and then the lantern went straight into the house, behind the lantern was Liu Futong, the Taoist priest in charge of the "Heavenly Paradise", and several retinues.
There is no need for Qi Xuansu to speak, Liu Futong's eyes have been locked on Qi Xuansu's body: "It's you again!" Someone, take it for me. ”
"Who dare!" Qi Xuansu let out a loud shout, causing several guards who were just about to make a move to stop.
Qi Xuansu looked directly at Liu Futong: "Master Liu, you just take people directly without asking questions?" It's easy to arrest people, but it's even harder to release people. ”
Liu Futong took a deep breath, squinted at Qi Xuansu, and said, "Even if you are Pei Zhenren's person, you can't openly kill people in 'Tianle Taoyuan'. ”
Qi Xuansu smiled: "Master Liu, do you want to buckle this basin on my head?" I'm afraid it's a miscalculation. I set off from the Wuxu Palace of Xijing Mansion, went out of Xijing, passed the ghost pass, and then went to Longmen Mansion, there are records of customs clearance in every place, and I will know that I killed someone, and the time is not right at all, not to mention that there is also the 7,000th household of Qingluanwei to testify to me. You want to say that I am a murderer, and you really regard the high merit and real people above as fools? Or can you cover the sky of the Daomen? ”
Qi Xuansu paused for a moment and accentuated his tone: "Master Liu, tell your people to go down." ”
The entourage guards looked at each other and subconsciously took a few steps back.
Although Liu Futong was annoyed, he knew that what Qi Xuansu said was reasonable, so he could only suppress his anger: "Okay, okay...... It was I who lost my words for a moment and misunderstood you. Stand back. ”
The guards, who were originally going to take people, hurriedly retreated.
"But I'll tell you, too!" Liu Futong's pretended Taoist elegance was no longer there at this time, his eyes showed a fierce light, and his irritable temperament was undoubtedly revealed, "Even if you didn't kill the person, with your unauthorized intrusion into the 'Tianle Taoyuan' and making a big fuss about the 'Qionglou', with bad intentions, I can go and escort you to the Wanshou Chongyang Palace now, and hand it over to Pei Zhenren." ”
Qi Xuansu was still not panicked: "Master Liu, just now, the murderer openly committed murder under your nose, and then walked away. Now that this case has reached this point, it can't be suppressed. I advise you that it's not too late to make amends. Take advantage of the fact that it has not yet reached the point where it is out of control, make every effort to solve the case, and bring the murderer to justice, at least he will not be charged with a crime of dereliction of duty, and maybe he will be able to deserve two credits. If you wait until the above knows about it and investigates it, I'm afraid it's not as simple as losing your official position and resigning, maybe you have to go to Fengxian Hall! ”
Liu Futong's face was a little pale, and even his voice trembled a little: "A faction of nonsense, a faction of nonsense." ”
Qi Xuansu said indifferently: "Is it nonsense, you know what is in charge of Liu." How many people are staring at the position of the head of 'Tianle Taoyuan', and how many people want to replace him, Director Liu should know better than me. You can take me down today, but can you take those people down too? ”
There was a dead silence.
No one dared to speak.
Liu Futong's face was full of solemnity: "I listened to the meaning of Your Excellency's words, do you want to show me a clear way?" I'm listening. ”
Qi Xuansu said calmly: "I'll solve the case, Director Liu, you have passed the test, I have the credit, we each take what we need, maybe we can have a good fate." ”
Liu Futong showed his decision to kill at this time, and did not hesitate too much: "Okay, you come to solve the case, I will allow you to enter and leave the 'Tianle Taoyuan' freely, and the corpses in the morgue will also be checked by you, but I can only give you three days, and after three days, if you still can't solve the case......"
Qi Xuansu interrupted: "Three days later, I will definitely give Director Liu an explanation." ”
Liu Futong snorted coldly, threw a sign to Qi Xuansu, and then turned around and strode away.
The retinue and the lantern also rushed away,
Qi Xuansu looked back at the dazzling corpse with an expressionless face, and also left the place.
By the time Qi Xuansu returned to Shimen County, it was already dark. However, the Qingluan guards here all recognized Qi Xuansu, and hurriedly led him to see the eighth day of cultivation.
On the eighth day, Yang saw Qi Xuansu come back and immediately asked, "How is it?" ”
Qi Xuansu will go through the experience, including his fight with the man wearing the white fox face mask, and Liu Futong's reaction.
On the eighth day, Yang said: "In this way, the murderer is actually a person from the Taiping Dao? ”
Qi Xuansu shook his head and said: "Don't dare to make a rash conclusion, the 'Wanhua Divine Sword Palm' is not a secret masterpiece, it is just the basic palm technique of the children of the Li family, even if it is not unusual, it is difficult to guarantee that the murderer is not deliberately confusing the public." ”
"What Brother Wei said is extremely true." The eighth day Yang nodded, "Then according to Brother Wei's opinion, what is the origin of this person?" ”
Qi Xuansu shook his head, did not answer, and took out the note with "Yue Lian" written on it, and placed it side by side with the note with "Huaqi" written on it.
"I can't see anything in the handwriting, is there such a note in the previous Lei Gong pot?" Qi Xuansu asked.
On the eighth day, Yang was very sure: "Absolutely not." ”
Qi Xuansu muttered: "In other words, the murderer has only recently started acting like this, why did he do this?" Provocation? Or is there something else going on? ”
On the eighth day, Yang glanced at the note.
Qi Xuansu asked, "Who is this 'Moon Mercy'?" Is it also an Oiran? ”
"It used to be." On the eighth day, she was raised here to investigate the case, although the time was not very long, but she did her homework a lot, "but she washed her hands when she was old, and now she is in charge of the 'Tianle Taoyuan', and she is very relied on by Liu Futong." ”
Qi Xuansu took out the sign given by Liu Futong and said: "It seems that I have to go to the 'Tianle Taoyuan' again, eighth brother, you pick a few good players, we will go over together, we can't let him run anymore." ”
On the eighth day, he quickly picked a good manpower, a total of four people, three Kunlun stage cultivation, one jade void stage cultivation, plus Qi Xuansu, Liu Hu, and the eighth day to raise three people, as long as the person wearing the white fox face mask is not a celestial, it will never be an opponent.
The group took advantage of the night to come to the "Tianle Taoyuan" again, because of the brand given by Liu Futong, this time it was unimpeded, and there was no need for Qi Xuansu to fake the tiger, and they came directly to the "Qionglou".
After the previous uproar, many people already recognized Qi Xuansu, especially Liu Futong, who was choked by him, and he was helpless, only when Qi Xuansu was a big man from above, so not only did he not stop him, but took the initiative to say hello.
Qi Xuansu casually pointed to a leading guard: "Lead me to see the moon in charge." ”
The guard's face suddenly turned grim.
It's just that Qi Xuansu didn't give him a chance to refuse: "Lead the way!" ”
In fact, in many cases, Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu are very similar, but more often, Qi Xuansu does not have Zhang Yuelu's background to be sharp.
The guards could only answer, leading Qi Xuansu and the others all the way to the highest place of the "Qiong Tower".
The highest part of the "Qiong Tower" is a large hall, which used to be the residence of the Purple Immortal King, and the Taoist priests of the past dynasties did not dare to use it casually.
The main hall is very large, and it is supported by twelve lacquered red pillars, and the pillar is decorated with gold grain, and there are two dragons playing with pearls in relief, which is exquisite. On the pillars hung curtains of various colors of silk and satin, which blinded people's eyes.
After entering the hall, it is a straight passage, paved with a red carpet, on both sides of the straight road, it is hollowed out into two large pools, with white jade sticking to the wall, paving the ground with green jade, there is clear water, the bottom of the blue can be seen, there is a waterway again, surround the main hall for a week, connect the two pools, you can see the fish meandering and swimming, there is a lotus lantern floating on the water surface, go around the hall with the water, illuminate the whole hall.
At the end of the straight road, that is, the deepest part of the main hall, there is a screen of twelve fans, painted with a huge "Heavenly Master Dengxian Map", only to see that the top is thousands of white clouds holding up the nine-fold heavenly que, below is a vast lake, there is purple gas under the heavenly que, there are ninety-nine cranes on the lake are about to flutter their wings and fly, the whole picture composition is huge, magnificent, only between heaven and earth, there is a little white figure, is looking up at the sky full of purple gas and the purple gas behind the Tianque, is the heavenly master.
This picture is not a copy, but a Danqing holy hand who was fortunate enough to witness the work of a heavenly master ascending to the immortal.
Behind this screen, the first thing that catches your eye is a flat bed with a length and width, no more than three inches high, and a small square table like a chessboard in the middle of it, all made of rosewood. There is a set of three things in the small table, the incense burner and the jar are made by the official kiln of the Great Jin Dynasty, painted with blue and white, known as the saying that "the family wealth is not as good as a piece", the spices burned in it are the superb ambergris, one inch and one gold.
On the table was a flask and a wine glass, and next to it was a mature woman kneeling, dressed in a light veil, with a beautiful keto body looming, with a low brow and a pleasing eye, gently plucking the incense block in the furnace with a golden chopstick.
