Sikong Ding immediately decided to imprison the second elder and interrogate the whereabouts of the strange runes.

The two elders were about to cry, and they couldn't wait to kill the shopkeeper of the Peach Blossom Pavilion on the spot.

But his mind was fairly clear, and he knew that the more he was at this time, the less impulsive he would be.

Just looked at Sikong Ding and said: "I am willing to be imprisoned in the forbidden land, I believe that the clear person will clear himself, and the sect master will definitely give me justice." ”

Sikong Ding naturally wanted to quickly lock the second elder in the forbidden place, and asked about the whereabouts of the strange runes, so he said coldly: "This seat will definitely find out about this matter, come here, bring the second elder into the forbidden land, and no one can visit without permission." ”

The fourth elder, He Kun, and the fifth elder, the White Lotus monk, all understood very well that the sect master should want to occupy the strange runes alone.

But at present, I was embarrassed to say yes, so I nodded one after another.

They each left the chamber.

Sikong Ding couldn't wait to bring the second elder to the forbidden land.

The so-called forbidden place is actually a basement.

It was dark and damp, there were no windows, and the walls were carved with runes on all sides.

Being in it is very depressing.

It is even more gloomy than the prison of the West Factory.

Sikong Ding spoke: "You know, I have always valued you, so I hope you can confess to me. ”

The second elder explained again: "Sect Master, I really don't know where Nangong Qingmeng is, I covet her, but I really didn't do it. ”

The implication is that the Great Elder is still there, and he doesn't dare.

Sikong Ding didn't care where Nangong Qingmeng went at all.

He only wants to know about the strange runes now: "I believe that you didn't do it, and I also believe that you didn't do it to the people of Pengzhou, and it was the runes in your hands that were stolen by others, which caused this misunderstanding." ”

This is a strong hint, you kid just need to hand over the legendary weird runes to me, and I will stand with you.

The second elder could be regarded as having understood, but Sikong Ding still suspected that there were strange runes in his possession.

He once again defended very seriously: "Sect Master, I really don't know where those runes that appeared in the Peach Blossom Pavilion came from? If I knew, I'd be the first to tell you. I suspect that someone has borrowed the reputation of our Ethereal Mountain and is doing nonsense. By the way, it's probably wildfire road. ”

"Are you sure this has nothing to do with you?" Sikong Ding's voice became cold.

The second elder still insisted, "Even if you ask me a thousand more times, I will still say that this matter has nothing to do with me. ”

Sikong Ding was not willing to end like this, so he said in another way: "Although I believe in you, but now, the fourth elder and the fifth elder don't believe in you. Even if the Great Elder came back safely, he didn't believe it. The relationship between the Third Elder and you is very ordinary, and he will not trust you. If I don't support you, not only will you be removed as an elder, but you will be locked up in a forbidden place forever, and I don't want that to happen. ”

The second elder couldn't argue, but he still tried to argue: "This matter really has nothing to do with me, sect master, I suspect that He Kun and Bai Lian have teamed up to trouble me." ”

"I didn't see if anyone else was making trouble for you, but I could see that you were making trouble for me." Sikong Ding said sharply.

Although he tried to use the second elder's words in a different way, no matter how he asked, he just didn't ask for news.

Finally flick your sleeves and leave.

But he didn't give up.

He had already made up his mind, even if he killed the second elder, he had to ask where the legendary weird rune was?

Of course, he also suspected that the second elder might not know either. But in the face of desire, people will lose their minds. There is a thought that it is better to believe in what is there than to believe in what is not.

Under the coercion of this emotion, he couldn't help but believe that the second elder must know something.

He also made up his mind that he must try his best to break the second elder's mouth.

……

In order to ensure the safety of Nangong Qingmeng and to hide people's eyes, Li Beixuan let her hide in a small farm yard on the outskirts of Pengzhou.

This small courtyard, judging from the appearance, is an ordinary farmhouse courtyard that can no longer be ordinary.

The people who live here are basically families with an annual income of about three taels of silver.

In order to hide people's eyes, Nangong Qingmeng also put on coarse cloth clothes.

Contrast can produce beauty.

Nangong Qingmeng, who has a noble face, wears blue-gray coarse cloth clothes, which can be said to have a unique flavor.

After Li Beixuan saw it, the power of the desolation in his body involuntarily surged upward.

I couldn't help but carry Nangong Qingmeng to the firewood room, ready to improve my cultivation with her again.

Nangong Qingmeng had some understanding: "My lord, why don't you go to the bedroom?" ”

"If you change the scene, you will have a different experience and a different effect." Li Beixuan said, then hugged Nangong Qingmeng and fell into the fluffy straw pile.

……

Nangong Qingmeng has always been a flower in a greenhouse, and it is the first time to lie in such a dilapidated firewood house.

There's an extra freshness.

……

An hour later, Nangong Qingmeng looked at Li Beixuan with resentful eyes, and complained softly: "People are covered with straw now, what should I do." ”

"Since I'm polluting, I'll clean it up." The corners of Li Beixuan's mouth raised a wicked smile.

After filling the large wooden barrel in the wing room with hot water and sprinkling the petals.

Holding Nangong Qingmeng, he jumped in.

Distressed barrel for three minutes.

……

Somewhere in a secret small house in Pengzhou.

The man with the black mask was secretly talking to He Kun, the fourth elder who seemed to be upright: "Lord Gray Crow has sent me a letter and asked me to inform you that Li Beixuan must be dealt with in the shortest possible time, and there can be no more delay. ”

He Kun was full of respect for this person, and he didn't have the arrogance of the second elder who was angry before: "Don't hide it from the envoy, I also want to solve Li Beixuan as soon as possible, but this guy's whereabouts are erratic, and I can't know where he is." ”

The man in the black mask said: "Someone saw Li Beixuan, who once went in and out of the White Lotus Temple, you can go to that place to guard him." ”

He Kun suddenly realized: "Although Bai Lian doesn't look down on the second elder, she usually doesn't fall out with him directly, no wonder she is so decisive this time, it turns out that Li Beixuan is making trouble behind his back." ”

The man in the black mask said: "We have tried to win over the White Lotus Monk many times, but there is no result, I think it is better to take this opportunity to wipe out the White Lotus Monk together, and then create a scene where Li Beixuan and the White Lotus Monk fight each other, so that we can not only get rid of our enemies, but also provoke the contradiction between the Ethereal Mountain and the imperial court." ”

"Killing two birds with one stone, this method is wonderful." He Kun had an inevitable smile on his face, "Envoy, rest assured, this matter is entirely up to me." ”

The Four Elders tried to become the Sect Master by joining the Wildfire Dao.

But he didn't know that his only son, He Bi'an, had just received a letter from Shen Taishi at the moment, and was preparing to do his best to help Li Beixuan dig out the wildfire path thieves hidden in the Ethereal Mountain.

He Bi'an doesn't have much cultivation talent, compared to the other heavenly pride of Ethereal Mountain, it's just mediocre.

His father didn't have much hope for him, he just hoped that he would be safe and sound for the rest of his life.

But He Bi'an felt that he had achieved nothing and was not worthy of being a father's son.

You have to do something to prove yourself.

Being recognized by their parents is the pursuit of many second generations.

By chance, he joined Shen Taishi's intelligence network and became an undercover agent in the Ethereal Mountain, responsible for delivering news to the imperial court.

Unbeknownst to him, his father was actually a member of the Wildfire Trail.

On the contrary, he has always felt that his father is very upright, dares to fight against the second elder who looks bad, and often does good deeds in Pengzhou, and may also be a member of the imperial court.

He often thinks that when his father finds out who he is, he will be proud of himself.

Because although he is incompetent on the surface, he has been quietly doing great things.

He was looking forward to the day when the two of them confessed their identities to each other.

The suburban house where Nangong Qingmeng lived was one of the several places He Bi'an provided Li Beixuan with a foothold.

After He Bi'an burned the news from Shen Taishi, he disguised himself and went to the secret stronghold in a low-key manner to meet Li Beixuan: "Lord Li, the second elder has been locked up. But it has not yet been ascertained who is the real wildfire road. However, Shen Taishi sent news that the fire thief of Wildfire Dao was reckless in the capital, saying that he wanted you to go and never return in Pengzhou. Taishi guessed that the Wildfire Dao would most likely send killers to do something to you. ”

Li Beixuan said: "Okay, then you tell the Taishi, let him stabilize the situation in the capital for the time being, don't worry about me." ”

"My subordinates understand." He Bi'an arched his hand and said.

"When the wildfire road is found out, I will personally report your merits to the emperor." Li Beixuan began to paint cakes again, "The emperor will definitely be rewarded." Your He family will also become the largest family in Pengzhou. ”

"Thank you, thank you, thank you." Why bother that is grateful to Dade.

His greatest wish in this life is to be able to glorify the lintel, glorify his ancestors, and become the pride of his father.

He felt that he was very close to his goal.

After He Bi'an left.

Li Beixuan has been calculating, his cultivation has not yet reached the third grade, and he is not a master.

If the Wildfire Dao really sent a strong man of the upper three grades, then he would definitely die.

Therefore, if you want to stay in Pengzhou peacefully, you must find a strong person as a personal bodyguard.

Since it is close-fitting, it must be a woman.

And there is only one White Lotus monk who meets these conditions.

Li Beixuan is a man of action, he just does what he says, and comes to the White Lotus Temple in a low-key manner.

The White Lotus monk sat cross-legged on the futon, closed his eyes, and said in a cold voice: "This seat is being cultivated, there is nothing else, please leave quickly." ”

"I just came over, and you drove me away without saying a word?" Li Beixuan said, so he consciously pulled a futon and sat down cross-legged.

The White Lotus monk opened his eyes and looked at Li Beixuan, who was only less than half a meter away from him, and felt disgusted: "This seat has always hated dirty men, and I also ask adults to pay attention to their words and deeds." ”

Li Beixuan decided to temporarily use the tactic of delaying the army, so he stood up, moved his futon to the side by one meter, and kept a distance from the cold White Lotus monk: "Although the juniors are obsessed with beauty, in front of the seniors, they will never dare to be presumptuous. ”

"Why are you here?" The White Lotus monk asked.

Li Beixuan lowered his voice and said: "If the Wildfire Dao wants to do something to me, I can only seek refuge from my seniors. ”

"Your life and death have nothing to do with me." The White Lotus monk closed his eyes and continued to meditate.

"Senior, what you said is a little inappropriate." Li Beixuan said, "No matter what, we are all partners and should take care of each other." If I don't, then our next plans may not be able to proceed. You can't become a national teacher, and you can't get those weird runes. ”

The White Lotus monk snorted coldly: "Do you really think that you can rely on these things to call this seat at will?" ”

"Seniors, don't get me wrong, juniors definitely don't mean this." When Li Beixuan said this, he unconsciously moved a little closer to the location where the White Lotus monk was.

The White Lotus monk was very vigilant: "If you have something to say, speak and don't move." ”

"I'm sorry, senior, I mainly want to go to you and express my respect and sincerity. If you mind, I'll come back. Li Beixuan retreated again and continued to lobby, "The junior didn't mean to threaten you, but just wanted to say that in fact, we can benefit each other and win." Your cultivation is so high, you can easily save my life. And as long as you protect me, then I can give you a high return, which is a very good deal for you. ”

Many times, the same thing, as long as you say it in a different way, will have a completely different effect.

Seeing that Li Beixuan's attitude was very good, the White Lotus monk nodded slightly: "Since you seek refuge in this seat, you should show sincerity." ”

"What sincerity do the seniors want, just say." Li Beixuan said, "What the younger generation can do must be done." ”

The White Lotus monk said: "Then you will pass the news to the capital and ask Taishi Shen to release the Great Elder." ”

"No problem, this is simple, I'll write it right away." Li Beixuan used the tactic of paralyzing the enemy, first pouring ecstasy soup on the White Lotus monk, "The greatest wish of the imperial court is peace, and it is not willing to easily provoke trouble. Before I came to Pengzhou, the Great Elder was at Master Shen's house, eating, drinking, and being happy. Since the layman wants him to come back, then I will write a letter. It's just that after the Great Elder came back, it was very unfavorable to the seniors. ”

The White Lotus monk opened his eyes and looked at Li Beixuan coldly: "You sow discord, it's better to save a province here, right?" ”

Li Beixuan thought to himself, if you were really not afraid of sowing discord, then you wouldn't ask me more about this.

Since you asked, it proves that you mind.

Then I have to fool around: "After the Great Elder comes back, the first thing he will do is to investigate where Nangong Qingmeng went." If he finds out that the token of the Second Elder was given to me by you, what do you think will happen? ”

Speaking of this, Li Beixuan smiled: "Of course, we are partners, and I will never betray my predecessors." Even if the Great Elder beats me to death, I can't say that that token was given to me by my seniors? Isn't it. ”
