It rained for several days.

Later, under the freezing of the howling north wind, the raindrops had turned into fluttering snowflakes.

The whole world was shrouded in a white expanse.

After the wind and snow stopped, the long-lost sunlight shone through the clouds, smearing the snow-covered earth with a layer of pale gold, and it looked like a beautiful scenery on a sunny and snowy day.

People who have been depressed at home for several days have come out, and the street has suddenly returned to its former hustle and bustle, and all kinds of noisy sounds are mixed in one place, showing the atmosphere of the bustling and lively world.

Wei Tao strolled down the street, sniffing the aromas wafting from the roadside restaurants, but his brows couldn't help but furrow.

At this moment, the delusion of Xuan Sense returns.

The pungent fragrance that can trigger the appetite in the perception of ordinary people has become an irritating fishy smell in his place.

Even my favorite dishes in the past, eating them without their original taste, it is not an exaggeration to describe it as the same as chewing wax, and it is often a matter of enjoyment that is often suddenly turned into punishment.

Behind him, three hooded figures and large hats followed closely.

In addition, there are more than a dozen men who are full of spirit, far or near, secretly vigilantly scanning the surroundings from time to time, not letting go of any of the figures that come closer.

Soon after, Wei Tao walked through an alley and stopped in front of a quiet and secluded compound.

"Sir has finally arrived, and his subordinates have been waiting here for a long time."

The courtyard door opened quietly, and Liu Qingyuan's slightly emaciated face appeared in front of him.

"Did you wait at the door, or did you know I was coming?" Wei Tao pushed the door in and asked casually.

"How can the concubine have the ability to predict Mr.'s whereabouts?"

Liu Qingyuan smiled faintly, "Naturally, after receiving the summons, I first prepared a table to pick up the wind and dust for Mr., and then I sat in the courtyard quietly waiting for Mr. to arrive." ”

After finishing speaking, she looked behind Wei Tao and bowed slightly, "Liu Qingyuan, the Shaoqing of the Luoshui Pilgrimage, has seen three highnesses. ”

"Sister Qingyuan doesn't have to be polite."

Wu Qingxuan stretched out his hand to help her up, "This time I have to bother Sister Qingyuan again, and I still have a lot of regrets in my heart." ”

The two chatted a few words, and Liu Qingyuan led Wu Qingxuan's sister and brother to the side room to change clothes and rest, and then returned to the courtyard.

A peckering bird in the corner of the wall fluttered its wings and flew up to the treetops.

Wei Tao retracted his gaze and looked at Liu Qingyuan, "The intelligence channel of the Pilgrimage Division, has there been any news about Yu Changshi?" ”

"Not yet." Liu Qingyuan sighed, a slightly gloomy look flashed on his face.

"Now there's no news, that's good news." Wei Tao didn't say much, turned around and closed the courtyard door.

Liu Qingyuan glanced outside, "Didn't you say that Elder Wan and Elder Chong came over together, why didn't you see the two old men?" ”

"They went to Qingfeng Temple, and they asked Lord Li Guan to drink tea and catch up with the old days, and they won't come over until they left."

Wei Tao had already entered the main room as he spoke, and when he saw the delicacies on display, he couldn't help frowning again and sighed secretly.

Liu Qingyuan's eyes flashed, thoughtful, "My subordinates have been thinking about whether Mr.'s cultivation has entered the realm again, and when I saw the slight knowledge at this time, I knew that my speculation was correct, and Mr. had really pushed open the door and stepped into the level of Xuansense." ”

"I wanted to wait a little longer, but unfortunately the heavens did not fulfill people's wishes, so I had to push the boat down the river and step forward."

Wei Tao sat down at the table, "Just because I have reached the realm of Xuangan, the Taoist Lord directly handed over the task of escorting them back to Beijing to me, and also let me observe the world by the way, taste the fireworks of the world, and accumulate a good sense of calm thoughts and mood." ”

There was a soft click.

Liu Qingyuan took a closed iron box, put it on the table and opened it gently.

She said slowly, "The last time Mr. came, because he was surrounded by various sects and Daoists, and the stay was short, his subordinates didn't have the opportunity to take out the things they had collected some time ago. ”

Wei Tao glanced at the box, and his eyes couldn't help but condense slightly.

There was a row of scale coins unique to the Luo Cha clan lying quietly, and there were as many as nine of them when I counted them.

"Where did you find these purple gold scale coins?"

He exhaled softly, taking all the purple gold scale coins into his hands.

Liu Qingyuan said, "My subordinates secretly searched for it according to the catalogue given by Mr., and there was no harvest for a long time, but there was a gang leader behind who offered these purple gold scale coins.

The man also said that there were many more, but the others had been lost, and only the last nine remained, because they were placed in the incense hall of the old mansion to be preserved. ”

Wei Tao asked, "Did he say where he got these scale coins?" ”

"That person's family was originally a merchant mainly engaged in spice tea, and a long time ago he secretly exchanged it with those villagers from the mountains of Mozhou, saying that the elders of the family believed that these things were treasures used to worship in the village, but they turned out to be useless, and they were cheated a lot of silver money and goods."

"Are they still running a tea business, and do they still have any contact with the Luocha clan in the depths of the mountains of Mozhou?"

Liu Qingyuan shook his head, "That family stopped doing it a long time ago, and since the imperial court banned the trade route with the Northern Wilderness, they sold their business shops and settled in Qizhou. ”

Wei Tao hid his hand in his sleeve and rubbed the smooth scale coin.

The illusory status bar quietly manifests in front of you.

The next moment, there was a crisp ding-dong sound, and he jumped happily in his consciousness.

After all the scale coins are absorbed, the number of gold coins in the status bar reaches fourteen, which is a large amount.

The kettle on the stove chirped softly, and steam rose.

Liu Qingyuan took the boiling water, brewed a pot of new tea, and said in a soft voice, "The subordinates have also known a little about Prince Yan and Prince Cheng in recent days, and the battle inside and outside the palace should be about to reach a white-hot stage.

However, Wei Jueyan's death is also a very heavy blow to Prince Yan, at least in a short period of time, he can no longer send martial artists above the grandmaster to intercept and kill, so Mr. does not have to worry too much about the safety of the road. ”

"I'm not worried about danger on the road, I'm just a little afraid of trouble."

Taking a sip of the tea brought by Liu Qingyuan, Wei Tao then asked, "Recently, have there been any changes in the delusions you have experienced?" ”

"Sir even knows this?"

Liu Qingyuan took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, "My subordinates often have the same dream these days. ”

"What dream?"

Wei Tao frowned slightly, "Is it the White Bone Altar, the woman in white?" ”

"It's not." Liu Qingyuan shook his head.

"It was a sea of purple and red flowers, and my subordinates vaguely saw a woman inside, but her figure was vague, and she couldn't remember it once she woke up."

Wei Tao put down the teacup and said in a calm tone, "That person, is it Sun Xiyue?" ”

Liu Qingyuan's tone was puzzled, "I don't know, I feel that it should be her, but after thinking about it, I feel that it is not, and in the end, I even have to forget Sun Daozi's true appearance." ”

"You know, when she didn't betray the Xuanwu Dao, I had seen her in real life, and it was really puzzling that this situation would occur at this time."

Click......

Wei Tao opened the suitcase he was carrying.

A dozen or so portraits rolled into cylinders were taken out of it.

Unfold them slowly and lay them flat on the ground at your feet.

"You carefully recall the images you saw in your dreams, and whether they can correspond to the characters on these portraits."

Liu Qingyuan looked at them one by one, thought silently for a long time, and shook his head, "There are two pictures that do give me a feeling of resemblance to the gods, but when I recall them carefully, they are a little vague, and I dare not really determine whether they are or not." ”

"It's enough to have similar feelings."

Wei Tao didn't show a disappointed expression, put the picture away and put it back in the box, "You accompany them to eat in a while, and I'm going to go to the practice room to retreat and practice, so that others don't come near at will." ”

There was a muffled thud.

The thick door of the practice room was tightly shut.

Blocking out the sunlight, the inside was plunged into darkness.

Wei Tao didn't light the lights on the hanging wall, and went to the middle ground to sit cross-legged.

Silently, the status bar came to mind.

He quickly scanned through the interfaces one by one, and finally fixed his eyes on the interface of the Vajra Secret Method.

Name: Vajra Secret Method.

Progress: 70 percent.

Condition: Perfect.

Realm: Break the law and three levels.

Description: Mutual confirmation with other exercises, this exercise has changed and improved.

"Whether to consume a gold coin to improve the progress of the Vajra secret method cultivation."

Wei Tao did not hesitate and directly chose yes.

Swish!

The status bar blurs abruptly and returns to normal after a few moments.

There is no mysterious aura injected into the body.

He looked intently and found that the number of gold coins was still fourteen, and it had not been consumed.

Wei Tao frowned slightly, lost in thought.

Now that he has stepped into the level of Xuan Sense, the Vajra Secret Method cannot be improved, which means that his previous thoughts are correct.

If you want to break through the three levels, the most important thing is to find the mysteries related to the secret method of vajra in all kinds of delusions, so that you can continue to improve to a deeper level on this basis.

So, what exactly is the mystic thought related to the Vajra secret method, and how to capture and perceive it, has become the next step to consider.

Wei Tao thought silently, and moved his gaze away from the interface of the Vajra Secret Method and turned to the Cathode Secret Method.

One hundred and forty percent, breaking the limit of the progress of the fourth stage, the realm of the power of the grandmaster, this method is the foundation that supports his strongest combat power.

"Whether to consume a gold coin to increase the progress of the cathode secret method cultivation."

Swish!

The status bar blurs again, and a gold coin disappears.

Immediately afterward, a large amount of mysterious aura was poured into it.

Drastic changes followed, transforming the body in every way.

Wei Tao closed his eyes, endured in silence, and carefully perceived.

Little by little, time passed.

The torn pain faded away, and everything was finally at peace.

He slowly opened his eyes, his gaze falling on the status bar.

Name: Cathode Secret Method.

Progress: One hundred and fifty.

Status: Broken Final.

Realm: The power of the grandmaster.

Description: Mutually corroborating with other exercises, this exercise has been changed and improved.

"Have you broken the final limit, it seems that I have touched the final upper limit of the cathode secret method."

"After that, if you want to significantly improve your combat power, you can only hope for the Imperial Extreme Law Seal and the Vajra Secret Method.

If you want to exert the strongest power of the Emperor's Law Seal, you must obtain the fundamental internal training method that Emperor Wu practiced at the beginning.

It's just that this path is not easy, and I may not be able to succeed when I go to the capital this time, and more importantly, even if I can get it, if it is similar to Yuanyi's internal practice, I may not be able to succeed in cultivation.

As for the Vajra Secret Method, if you want to improve again, you must perceive and capture the corresponding mystical thoughts, so that you can break through the three levels and reach the final Donkey Kong realm.

And if you practice the Vajra Secret Method to the fullest, you will be able to transform into heaven and man and become a horizontal training master, which is very difficult, so it is not easy to perceive and capture the corresponding mystical thoughts. ”

Wei Tao stared and pondered, and his heart was full of thoughts.

For a while, I was even a little confused, and I didn't know which direction to raise my strength level.

Suddenly, a memory flashed through the depths of his mind.

It was like a bright light, instantly dispelling the fog and illuminating all the vast areas of chaotic darkness.

"If you want to improve your strength in a short period of time, you can consider this path."

His eyes sparkled, and the scene of the sect's big competition came to his mind.

The final outbreak of Xuanwu's first Daozi Yanxu.

Wei Tao thought for a moment and whispered to himself, "Beigong Xuanwu, Northern Qisu, the bullfighting girl is in danger. ”

"Yan Xu's seven nights were in one at that time, breaking through seven passes in his body in a row, and all the forces of his spiritual will and qi were combined to shock seven times, which had many similarities with the cathode secret method.

If I also cultivate the Xuanwu True Explanation of the Seven Residences to the depths, and then superimpose the Cathode Secret Method with the Seven Residences Combined Attack, wouldn't I be able to burst out with unprecedented power? ”

"In the past, I didn't want to enter the Xuangan realm too quickly, so I didn't continue the cultivation of Xuanwu True Solution, but now that this worry no longer exists, I can let go of my worries and be brave and diligent."

Thinking of this, he immediately looked at the three interfaces related to the Xuanwu True Solution.

The Turtle and Snake Chapter, which broke the limit of 30 paragraphs, the Non Gui Chapter, which made 80% progress, and the Seven Houses Chapter, which had just started and did not go inward into the cultivation, were all his achievements in the Xuanwu True Interpretation now.

Wei Tao skipped the turtle and snake chapter aside and looked at the non chapter first.

After thinking for a moment, he consumed three gold coins and raised it to a height of one hundred and ten, breaking the limit by one step.

Then came the real focus of the retreat.

One by one, the gold coins were bet into the Seven Nights.

A handful of pills are put into the mouth and swallowed, which is used to replenish the body consumption after the improvement of the exercises.

Time flies.

Soon it was from noon to evening, and then a new day began.

At noon the next day, the door of the practice room was slowly pushed open.

The sun shines in, spreading a golden color in front of the door.

A figure stood silently, right on the dividing line between light and darkness.

With his back to the darkness and his feet in the light, surrounded by black, red and pale gold, and the wisps of scarlet silk looming, he painted a fantastic and strange picture.

Name: Xuanwu True Solution Seven Houses.

Progress: One hundred and ten.

Status: Broken one section.

Realm: Double Stay.

Description: Mutual confirmation with other exercises, this exercise has changed and improved.

Wei Tao narrowed his eyes, adjusting to the sudden bright sun, and a golden light reflected in his eyes.

After a while, he slowly raised his palm, staring at the surging black scarlet pale gold tricolor true strength, and was a little inexplicable for a while.

The color of Xuanwu is now completely derived from the Xuanwu True Solution to the Seven Nights.

The blood-like scarlet comes from the Blood Moon Double Demon Gong that has undergone several improvements and changes.

And that faint golden color is the true energy aura derived from the Vajra secret method.

The three are intertwined and fused into one, bringing him a novel experience that he has never experienced before.

Wei Tao's mind moved slightly, he took away the true strength of his palm, and began to deduce the simulation in the depths of his mind.

Now his strongest state is the Imperial Envoy Vajra Secret Method to strengthen the body, with the Emperor's Extreme Law Seal to strike out and the Double Lotus, after breaking the limit of the final stage of the cathode secret method fifteen oscillation combined attacks, and then superimposed the Xuanwu True Solution Seven Residences Chapter Double Residence Combined Attack, bursting out with the power of the grandmaster comparable to the sixteen combined attacks.

What kind of power can be played, it still needs to be experienced by a martial arts master whose strength level is higher than Wei Jueyan.

As for the martial artists under the martial arts masters, or the flowery grandmasters of the Qinglian Sect, they could no longer enter his eyes.

He exhaled a scorching breath softly, and his mind fell on the Xuanwu True Solution.

As the head of the seven sects of the sect, Xuanwu Dao really has a heritage and depth that is difficult for ordinary people to touch.

The cultivation of the Seven Nights Chapter has reached 100% progress, and it is only by perfecting the seven styles of the "Bullfighting Girl Void Danger Room Wall" to the fullest, and then reaching the breaking limit upwards, it can be regarded as the prelude to the outbreak of the combined attack.

If the turtle and snake chapter is to lay the foundation, and the non-qi chapter is to emphasize the understanding, then when it comes to the Seven Houses chapter, it can be regarded as truly touching the secret of the true solution of Xuanwu.

So on top of the Seven Nights, the Ming chapter that directly points to the martial arts master, and even the Xuanwu chapter that has never revealed the true deeds, what kind of mysterious mystery should there be, it is really fascinating and longing.

And Yan Xu, as the first Daoist of Xuanwu, has a talent and qualifications that far surpass ordinary martial artists.

At the beginning, Yan Xuan was able to attack the Seven Nights together, which was equivalent to relying on his own strength, and he practiced the Seven Nights Chapter to the height level of breaking the limit of six stages, and over time, breaking through the Xuangan and becoming a grandmaster also had a great probability of success.

It's a pity that after the Qinglian Sect invaded Taixuan Mountain, there was no trace of Yan Xu, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead, which was definitely a huge loss for Xuanwu Dao.

Wei Tao gathered his thoughts and slowly walked into the courtyard.

Behind him, the black, red, and pale gold aura returned to the body, and the scarlet filaments hidden in the darkness disappeared without a trace, and the whole person looked completely a handsome young scholar.

Liu Qingyuan hurriedly greeted him, "At this time, when I saw Mr., and then I thought that Mr. was about to go to the capital, my subordinates had an inexplicable illusion, as if you were really going to Beijing to catch the exam, and you were waiting for the title of the gold list in the near future." ”

"If I really go to Beijing to catch the exam, I'm afraid I'll lose the face of the world's scholars."

Wei Tao just smiled and asked, "Is the ship ready?" ”

"Mr. Hui's words are all ready."

"In this case, in order to prevent the weather from freezing on the river surface again, we will set off today and send the three Highnesses back safely as soon as possible, which can be regarded as a matter of concern."

…………

…………

………………

The boat crossed Luoshui, then turned to Mingshui, and traveled all the way to the south along the north wind, and arrived at Yuanzhou without delay.

Then he disembarked at the southern border of Yuanzhou, changed carriages and turned overland, heading towards Xuanzhou, where the Great Zhou Jingshi was located.

It was getting late, and there were no cities and towns in front and back, so everyone found a source of water for a small stream, and stopped the carriage to rest overnight.

"In such a short period of time, Daozi's strength level has improved again, which really makes the old people sigh and envy."

Elder Wan tore the bacon into strips and slowly ate the wine, exhaling a mouthful of wine from time to time.

Although it is a picnic in the wilderness, it seems to have eaten the pomp and circumstance of the imperial meal in the palace.

Wei Tao fiddled with the fire, and only sighed low when he heard the words, "Before going down the mountain this time, the Daoist master and his old man specially emphasized that martial arts cultivation should also follow the principle of one relaxation, one relaxation, fast and slow order.

When it should be fast, it should be thunderous and long-term, and when it should be slow, it must be cautious and cautious, step by step, so that it is the orthodox road, and the disciple is now just entering the Xuansense, and he will improve his strength again, and he doesn't know if it is a good thing or a bad thing. ”

Elder Wan ate a piece of fat meat that was roasted with oil, drank a few sips in a row, and wiped his mouth with his sleeve casually, not caring about soiling his clothes with good texture.

"What Senior Brother Ning said is indeed good, but as long as Daozi is not really disturbed by Xuangan's delusions, then whether it is faster or slower, it is actually not a big problem."

Speaking of this, his tone became much more serious, "But if Daozi feels that his mood is unstable and the spiritual platform is unknown, then he must pay attention, he would rather not practice for a period of time and not make a move, and he can't let his delusions develop wantonly." ”

Elder Chong on the side opened his eyes, "It's a pity that a key secret method of this sect is missing, and there is a lack of a method that can guide the perception of mystical thoughts, and if you want to get through delusions and reach the grandmaster, it will be much more difficult than the other sects of the sect."

What the Taoist said would rather be slow than fast, that is, for this matter, it is good that Daozi can understand the meaning of his old man. ”

Elder Wan also sighed, "Senior Brother Ning has been thinking hard about it, and he has always tried to find a way to make up for the missing secret method, even though he has advanced to the realm of the Grandmaster of Heaven and Man Incarnation, he still has to return to immerse himself in all kinds of delusions.

Fortunately, in the past few years, I have some eyebrows, and when I am successful, I can be regarded as lighting a guiding light for those of us who are wandering in the endless darkness. ”

Suddenly, dense footsteps approached from a distance.

Soon they were already near.

Elder Wan was silent at this time, and began to tear the bacon by hand again, taking small sips of wine.

Elder Chong also closed his eyes and began to rest.

Wei Tao was still fiddling with firewood, his eyes looking beyond the twisted heat to the sky, as if there was some rare treasure hidden there.

Silently, the footsteps disappeared.

There was also a faint smell of blood, mixed with the night wind, which added a little different flavor to this cold night.

After a while, a man in black came to the vicinity and bowed, "Elder, Daozi, it's a group of bandits who cut the path, and they have all been ambushed." ”

"Got it, hard work."

Wei Tao bowed slightly, with a gentle smile on his face.

"It is our honor to fight for the Daozi."

The man in black gave a deep salute and quietly retreated, hiding into the darkness around him.

"If I'm not mistaken, this is the sixth wave."

Elder Chong sighed lowly, "The Central Plains is a fertile land, the wind and rain are smooth, and it was originally a rich land, but I didn't expect such a chaotic situation to occur. ”

Elder Wan said, "Coupled with the comeback of the Qinglian Demon Sect, the Northern Wilderness Alien Race is ready to move, it seems that only more than twenty years have passed, and the quiet and peaceful days are about to leave us again." ”

Elder Chong's brows furrowed, "If the White Plague breaks out in the Northern Wilderness this year, it is really possible that the alien race will raise troops to the south again, and then Qizhou will bear the brunt, and this sect will usher in another test."

The key is that this time is not as good as forty years ago, when there were four grandmasters on Qinglin Mountain, and dozens of Xuangan martial artists below, even so, they still suffered heavy losses under the siege of the Northern Wilderness warriors, and even the mountain gate was almost broken.

If you do it again, the consequences will be unimaginable. ”

Elder Wan put the roasted bacon into his mouth, and said nonchalantly, "Dao Master, his old man's eyes are like torches, and he has already made up his mind, we just need to obey orders."

When the time comes, you will fight, if you can't fight, you will leave, and if you can't go, you will die, and if you figure it out, that's actually what it is. ”

Wei Tao said with a smile, "Elder Wan is open-minded and transparent, which makes the disciples sincerely admire. ”

"The Taoist is too famous, and the old man can't be regarded as really open-minded, but he has been tormented by Xuangan delusions for a long time, and he has to learn to extricate himself, otherwise, it will be difficult to survive all these years."

Elder Wan laughed and raised his hand to point into the distance, "If I'm not mistaken, Elder Liu's family of Xuanwu Dao is in the city ahead, and we're going to stay overnight tomorrow night."

You can take a good rest, wash away the dust of sleeping all the way, and if you meet Elder Liu at home, you can also catch up with old friends you haven't seen for many years. ”

After a pause, he continued, "Of course, the most important thing is that since we have gone deep into Xuanzhou, it will be difficult to hide our whereabouts anymore, so it is better to show our faces in the Xuanwu Dao Elder's house.

In this way, it can attract the attention of Xuanwu Dao, even if someone is thoughtful and thinks of the three highnesses hiding in the team, they will have a little more scruples if they want to do it. ”

After a long night, the convoy set off before the morning sun rose.

After most of the day's travel, before the sun set, we came to the small city that Elder Wan had mentioned.

Closer to the castle, a smooth ashlar paved road began to appear in front of it, and farther away, there were more farmsteads and other buildings on the side of the road, which was much more lively than the previous wilderness.

After entering the city, Elder Wan was familiar with the way and led the team straight inward.

The houses on the side of the street were lit up with lights and smoke, and the sound of laughter and laughter sounded in the ears, and the rich smell of fireworks came to the face.

For ordinary people living in the city, it is quite a happy thing for the whole family to sit around and eat a hot dinner in the cold winter.

"The closer you get to the center of the city, the quieter and quieter it becomes, which is surprising."

Wei Tao observed the changes along the way, and couldn't help but show a puzzled expression on his face.

Elder Wan said, "Senior Brother Xuanwu Liu likes to be quiet, but he doesn't want to live in the wilderness, so it's not unusual for a small city with his family as the core to slowly become like this. ”

As he spoke, the convoy had stopped in front of the garden-style mansion.

After the concierge inquired, he quickly went to the hospital to report.

After a while, the middle door opened, and a tall old man walked out of it, laughing and greeting him.

"I thought about it, but I couldn't remember which old friend surnamed Wan visited, and I didn't know until I saw it, but it turned out to be Senior Brother Wan of Qinglin Mountain!"

Elder Wan said with a smile, "I was ordered by the Taoist Lord to go to the capital on a business tour, and when I passed by here, I came over on a whim to take a look, but I didn't expect to really let me meet Senior Brother Liu." ”

Wu Qingxuan and the three of them were dressed in black and masked, pretending to be Taoist soldiers and standing in the distance, not leaning forward from beginning to end, nor attracting any attention.

After Elder Liu and Elder Chong saluted, they turned their heads to look at Wei Tao.

Wei Tao smiled, met his eyes, and the void handed over.

The two of them flickered slightly at the same time, and then moved away as if nothing had happened.

Elder Wan introduced, "This is the Daoist of this doorman, which is quite valued by the Daoist Master Ning, and he studied under Senior Sister Yu. ”

"Yuan Yi Wei Tao, I've seen Elder Liu." Wei Tao lowered his head and bowed, his eyes flashing thoughtfully.

Elder Liu smiled kindly, and his tone was gentle, "After the sect competition, the old man heard the name of Wei Daozi, the veritable first Daozi of the Seven Sects, and when I saw it today, it was really a dragon and a phoenix among people, and his bearing was extraordinary. ”

Wei Tao saluted again, "Elder Liu has won the award, but it is just the love of the senior brothers and sisters. ”

"It's really gratifying to see two old friends today and have the opportunity to meet Wei Daozi."

Elder Liu led everyone to the courtyard, and instructed the housekeeper to quickly arrange the room, prepare the banquet, and wait for a short freshening up and resting, and then have a hearty drink and get drunk.

Wei Tao followed behind, watching the housekeeper of the Liu Mansion go away, and then looked at the maid and servant who were not far away, and the slight doubt in his eyes did not dissipate, but became more and more intense.

Half a quarter of an hour later.

Under the guidance of a young man in Tsing Yi, Wei Tao came to a delicate and elegant guest room.

He didn't go to change his clothes and wash them, nor did he go to eat the refreshments on the table, but sat on the wooden chair and stood still, looking down at the quietly burning candle flame, quietly thinking about what he had seen and heard along the way.

From the time he saw Elder Liu of Xuanwu Dao at the door, to the steward of Liu's Mansion, the maids and servants of all sizes brought him a feeling that could be called inexplicably familiar.

When you think about it, it's surprising.

Suddenly there was a soft squeak.

A cold wind blew from outside.

Push open a crack in the door that wasn't closed.

The candle flame on the table jumped violently, and the whole room seemed to be darkened in an instant.

Then there was the sound of light footsteps, and soon they came closer.

"Wei Daozi, the banquet in the banquet hall has been prepared, and the eldest master instructed the slave and maid to invite Daozi to the banquet."

A beautiful maid stood outside the door and bowed.

Wei Tao didn't speak, just slowly raised his head and looked at the slender figure in silence.

Under his gaze, the little maid stood there quietly, still with a shallow smile on her face, but when she looked closely, this smile seemed to have never changed, and it was the same expression from beginning to end.

It's like putting a vivid smiley face mask on a real face and fixing it completely, and nothing else has changed since.

Quietly, another cold wind blew.

The wooden door of the guest room was soft again.

Syllable!

The candle flame on the table danced again, and with the change of light and shade, an inexplicable aura slowly spread and dispersed in the guest room.

"In this strange mansion, apart from Elder Liu, you are more special than the others."

Wei Tao sighed lowly, as if muttering to himself, his voice was so low that only he could hear it clearly.

The little maid smiled lightly, "What Daozi is saying, please forgive the slave maid for not hearing it." ”

Wei Tao still didn't get up, and also replied with a gentle smile, "What I'm saying is that you have more than other maids and servants, and I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing." ”

(End of chapter)
