Chapter 205: Quick Knife Cuts Through the Mess
"That man's cultivation is unfathomable, but his fate will be extinguished, like a candle in the wind, and a night light in the rain."
When Chen Liu pushed the door and entered the courtyard, Taiwa and Yuan Ping couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
After coming out of the dragon gate, they didn't see any trace of Chen Liu, and they became vigilant at that time.
Lao Zhouzi noticed everything, so he took them directly to Yingzhou in the Three Immortals Mountain, and showed them the way up the mountain. Halfway through the mountain road, they met the Yingzhou envoy and were taken to this courtyard.
Taiwa sensed Chen Liu's quiet and peaceful aura, and she was a little relieved. But beyond that, she also felt an unfathomable presence like an abyss. It's just that the man seems to be about to reach his limit, and behind the majestic power hides a withered and rotten taste.
When Chen Liu heard her say this, he naturally knew that the breath she sensed was that old woman, the high priest of Yingzhou. After explaining to Taiwa, he said:
"I didn't expect this high priest to be so serious. Could this be the reason why Yingzhou took the initiative to find the beam?"
Chen Liu has no way of knowing what Yingzhou's strength is, but this high priest is definitely one of the people in power in Yingzhou, and he is also a cutting-edge force to deter others.
Although the overseas three mountains are far away from the mortal world, they are mortals after all, and they have seven emotions and six desires, so naturally there will be fights and intrigues. From the flow of information revealed by the envoy of Yingzhou, it can be inferred that the relationship between the three mountains is actually very delicate.
Penglai, the abbot, and Yingzhou seem to be prosperous and lossy, but their views are very different.
The abbot seeks to be born, free from all variables of development.
Yingzhou and Penglai hope to be reborn when the storm is about to come, and before the impact of the new world comes, they will find other forces to gain a firm foothold in order to calculate the future. It's just that the power of the two choices is different, and there are contradictions.
Penglai may not be the enemy of Daliang, but when they choose to fight against the current crown prince Li Wan, it is destined to be a big gamble. If Li Wan is really pulled down, he can obviously get a greater reward as a minister of the dragon. But Yingzhou obviously chose the current prince, and there will inevitably be a contradiction between the two.
"Any other information?"
Taiwa asked.
In this regard, Chen Liu just shook his head.
He didn't say no, but he wasn't sure if he could tell her about those things. After all, it was something that seemed to have involved the truth of the world, and it was also something that he had only learned about some broken information until now.
Chen Liu looked like this, and Taiwa didn't ask any more. Anyway, she didn't come here for anything else, just for the red hydrangea of the demon ancestor. Before arriving in Penglai, there shouldn't be too many things that need her attention.
After almost explaining, Chen Liu exchanged a few words with Yuan Ping, asking him to go to Yingzhou to look around and explore some other clues.
This is also the business scope of an authentic rod hitter.
As for him and Taiwa, they need to wait for the reaction of Yingzhou's higher-ups.
With nothing to do, Chen Liu took the initiative to talk about the young man he saw outside the Dragon Gate, Qinghu.
"Do you know his details?"
"It is not easy for the spirit plant to cultivate into a demon and go against the sky. has a close relationship with Pei Wujiang and should be his cronies...... Your subordinates?"
The clues that the two of them knew were actually not much different.
This Qinghu Daoist was born in a very short period of time. Although a large part of the reason why he has been in the sight of various forces is because of Pei Wujiang, the so-called opportunities will only be reserved for those who are capable.
Pei Wujiang definitely has a good reason to choose Qinghu, it can't be a whim, and he is right in front of him...... Right? Even if this is true, if a fifth-grade is promoted to a second-rank in a short period of time, it is not a matter of interest or disinterest that can be explained clearly.
Chen Liu was also a little puzzled and asked:
"Does the demon clan still have any quick cultivation techniques?"
It's just that he instantly dismissed the idea. If there really is such a thing, how can the tribes turn over?
"Pei Wujiang?"
Taiwa gave a direct answer: Z.br>
"Blood Pill."
"What is this?"
"You're more or less a martial artist, why don't you know about this kind of thing? Hey...... When did you get six?"
"It's just a fluke."
Taiwa didn't dwell too much on this issue, she became the teacher of preaching and teaching again, and explained to Chen Liu:
"As the name suggests."
"Be concise."
It is sometimes very useful. Although there are many misunderstandings, it is undoubtedly a great shortcut to understanding things.
The so-called blood pill is something that condenses all the blood power of flesh and blood creatures. After taking it, the effect is very simple, improve qi and blood, and elevate the realm.
As for the condensation method, it is also the simplest one of the pills, two words: killing.
"Could it be that General Pei Wujiang slaughtered for him?"
"The man was supposed to eat some leftovers. But that's exactly what it is. He won't go mad because of the tyrannical power of the Blood Pill."
Things in the world have always been a cycle of cause and effect, and there is a give-and-take.
The effect of the blood pill is so domineering, it will naturally have domineering side effects.
If an ordinary cultivator takes the Blood Pill, there is a high probability that he will be affected by this external qi and blood power, damaging the muscles and bones and acupoints, and even being overwhelmed by its power and dying of his body.
Therefore, in the whole world, in fact, only the martial arts who practice physical fitness may use this method. It's just that after all, this thing hurts the heavens and harms, and it will damage the life character and be riddled with bad luck.
Perhaps only Pei Wujiang's lonely personality and unrelated people will have no taboos.
"Then it seems that General Pei is even more good to this person. By the way, what do you think of him?"
Chen Liu went around and finally asked such a question.
He had already asked, but now he asked again.
Taiwa also told him honestly, she said:
"Okay. The mind is not heavy, and the nature is also good. Although Pei Wujiang wantonly slaughtered the water tribes in the sea, he protected many spirit strain demons and demon clans whose nature was indisputable."
Chen Liu nodded and stopped talking.
At this time, there was also a knock on the door.
Naturally, this voice could not be Yuan Ping, who had just gone out, but the envoy of Yingzhou.
He brought his opinion on the top management of Yingzhou.
"The cooperation between Yingzhou and Daliang is all in this scroll. The High Priest thinks the crown prince should be satisfied with this."
Chen Liu took the scroll and opened it to take a look.
What was written on it, even he was extremely surprised.
There is really no need to negotiate this condition. This belongs to Yingzhou's unilateral contribution and the beam does not have to pay any price......
"That's not right...... What does the High Priest want?"
"The girder and Yingzhou luck are connected, one is prosperous, and the other is lost."
The old man relayed the words of the High Priest.
Chen Liu was noncommittal about this, not that he was dissatisfied with this condition. Since it is a cooperative relationship, this condition is a normal condition.
What the high priest asks for should be to use the big girder as a big chariot to deal with the impact of future changes.
It's just that the decision of the matter is not in his hands, he only needs to wait until he returns to Jiangning and give the scroll to the crown prince.
"So Yingzhou has no other opinions?"
"The words of the High Priestess are above all else."
"That...... Happy cooperation?"
The old man smiled and replied:
"It's a pleasure to work with."
Subsequently, something happened that Chen Liu did not expect.
The old man gave an order to evict the guests......
"Not really. That's it?"
Chen Liu had never seen such a hasty envoy and negotiation, but the old man said as a matter of course:
"The High Priest has already decided everything. Childe is here
It's a process. It's just that I hope that Gongzi will come to Yingzhou again before leaving Sanshan, and there will still be an answer to the things entrusted by the high priest."
After the old man finished speaking, he arched his hand and left the courtyard.
From the beginning to the end, it took less than a cup of tea to complete, and Chen Liu completed one-third of the mission.
Of course, Yingzhou didn't drive them away. If you want to stay longer, you can stay longer. There's just no point in staying, so ......
"Let's go?"
"Hmm."
So, Chen Liu and Taiwa found Yuan Ping, who was outside.
At this time, he seemed to have started a conversation with a local monk in Yingzhou, chatting and laughing.
For a while, Chen Liu didn't know whether to go up and say: The purpose of this trip is over, and he is talking nonsense.
When Yuan Ping saw Chen Liu, he said hello to the young man, walked over, and asked:
"What? Got a problem? It's okay. In the beginning, obstacles were inevitable. Just talk about it slowly......
"It's over, it's going well."
"That's good, isn't it...... Well? Are you done?"
Yuan Ping looked at Chen Liu in disbelief, not seeing the meaning of lying.
He couldn't help but sigh that the world had changed, and in the past, he had to accomplish certain tasks, which time was not twists and turns, and it was all kinds of hardships. How did this kid get to this kid so smoothly?
However, he was not without results.
"That brother just now, you gave me some information. Check it out, it should be useful."
"Hmm."
Chen Liu thought that it should still be the arrangement of the high priest.
Perhaps in addition to the official girder, Yingzhou also wants to take the line of the pole beater.
"Then Brother Yuan, are you going with us to the abbot or?"
Yuan Ping thought for a while and said:
"Since the other party is willing, then I'll stay here for a while. The rod beaters also have insufficient information about these three mountains. Sort out some information and go back, so you can go to the place to exchange some wine money."
「……」
Yuan Ping was obviously addicted to Du Kang's wine, and Chen Liu was a little speechless.
It's just that he didn't say anything, and he and Taiwa found the ferryman Lao Zhouzi who was waiting at the foot of the mountain.
When he saw Chen and Liu, he smiled and said:
"It seems that the old lady is still so quick to decide."
"You guessed it?"
This is really less than half a day's work, and they finished talking about one place, which really makes people feel like they are living in a dream.
Lao Zhouzi was very calm about this, and only said that the high priest had always been like this.
Most of the time, she doesn't care about Yingzhou, but as long as she speaks, she cuts through the mess quickly and doesn't procrastinate at all.
So, Chen and Liu looked back at Yingzhou, which was full of cherry blossoms, and said goodbye to Yingzhou for the time being.
But when Chen Liu and the others arrived at the sea outside the abbot, they were blocked by a barrier.
A few ancient words appeared on the barrier, and Lao Zhouzi also translated them for Chen Liu, which roughly meant:
"The people in the mountains don't care about the things under the mountain, and the people in the forest don't care about the situation in the city."
Chen Liu translates it again: self-autistic, do not disturb.
So Chen Liu and the others had to stop on an isolated island near the abbot, and at this time they heard singing from the depths of the isolated island.
