Chapter 254: The Snake Hits Seven Inches
In the blink of an eye, three years have passed.
The destruction of the Fire Palace has long been a thing of the past, and there are fewer and fewer monks who pay attention to and discuss it.
Even, in Jing Kingdom, Liang Kingdom and other places, the trace of the Fire Palace monks is almost extinct.
In the Liang State Immortal Cultivation Realm, the Jinyang Sect, which moved north, initially stabilized the situation.
Autumn Wind Island, in the medicine garden.
Lu Changan, who is more than 163 years old, is still young, fair-skinned, gentle and handsome.
"The monks who left the Fire Palace have all migrated?"
Lu Changan stood with his hands in his hands, his back to the shadow of the fruit tree behind him.
"Mr. Hui Lu, hundreds of elite monks will gather from the Fire Palace, take a third-order spirit ship, and go to the 'Seven Nations Alliance' in the west."
Xing Peng's voice came from the shadows.
Lu Changan's face was gloomy, and he had heard of the Seven Nations Alliance.
The Immortal Cultivation Country over there is more developed in commerce and trade, and its strength is much stronger than that of the surrounding countries of the Feng Kingdom.
"You have no idea about the Migrating Lihuo Palace?"
"The late overhaul of the Fire Palace True Pill has recovered from its injuries, and many True Pills have been gathered, and we can't help it. Even if the war starts, I don't want to go head-to-head with a large number of monks. ”
The hooded man in the shadows shook his head.
The intelligence area that Infernal Gate is responsible for is not limited to the surrounding areas of the Feng Kingdom and the Seven Nations Alliance.
Regions that are at war, or about to be invaded, have been infiltrated by the Infernal Gate.
"Elder Taishang of the Fire Palace, do you have any whereabouts?"
In the past few days, Xia Wenyue has not been on the island, and the communication between the two does not need to be particularly hidden.
"Nope."
Xing Peng said in surprise: "The little one has tested the tone above, and this gate seems to have lost the whereabouts of the people on the fire. In recent years, the Lihuo Shangren and the monks of the Lihuo Palace have not had any contact on the surface. ”
Lu Changan remained silent, now that time is still short, it is difficult for the outside world to guess that the person on the fire has been destroyed.
For Yuanying Zhenjun's long lifespan, it is not uncommon to recuperate and cultivate and retreat for one or two decades.
If the time drags on for too long, and after waiting for more than ten years, the outside world will be suspicious if the person on the fire has not yet appeared.
Judging from the current situation, Lu Changan is not too worried about being involved in himself.
By that time, he had already become a True Dan monk, and he was among the upper echelons of several neighboring countries.
Unconsciously, Lu Chang'an was in the stage of building the eighth layer of the foundation, and he was more than halfway through, and he was getting closer and closer to the ninth layer of the foundation.
Back to the training room.
Lu Changan closed his eyes to participate in the cultivation, and the "Returning to Dust and Transformation Dan Method" that he traded from Zhang Tieshan was almost thoroughly understood.
There is no guidance from a famous teacher, and it all depends on the vision of the past life and personal research and exploration.
The method of turning pills is very unpopular and extremely dangerous, so I have to be cautious.
Lu Changan had no experience in his previous life, and it could be described as an unknown territory.
Consciousness enters the Nine Seals Tablet in the mind.
The white-bearded old man in the second life is lit up seventy percent, and it will take another year or two at most to be able to light up completely again.
The purple-robed Taoist phantom of the fourth life is uncertain, and it is more vain than the soul shadow of the previous two lives.
In the past two or three years, Lu Changan has learned a little useful information from the huge and messy fragments of memory, some of which involve the secrets of the Fire Palace.
Of the three ways of reincarnation of the Nine Seal Tablet, Lu Changan is currently inclined to the second one, having the reincarnation of the Yuan Infant Stage.
This method has the most stable returns.
Among them, what moved him the most was the experience of turning into a baby.
In Lu Changan's previous life, he failed to impact the Yuan infancy and died.
Of course, Lu Changan will not hang himself from a tree, it is best to push the boat along the river to fulfill the wish of the person who left the fire and end the cause and effect.
You must not involve yourself in the whirlpool of sectarian struggles.
The other two options can also be used as alternatives, depending on the subsequent development of this life.
……
In the early morning of the next day, Lu Changan completed his routine cultivation and the cultivation of treasure talismans.
Restricted by the cultivation of mana, those third-order talismans of second-order high-grade materials have very little cultivation effect.
The eight treasure talismans made from the ghost bamboo are similar.
Especially those two third-order top-grade cards, Lu Changan basically couldn't feel the change.
"The mana used for cultivation is too far from the level of the treasure rune. I'm afraid that after the knot, there will be no promotion. ”
Complete two daily routines, and the time is approaching noon.
In the afternoon, it will be the time for Lu Chang'an to raise flowers and plants, or to study and cultivate immortal arts.
In the evening, draw two hours, and use the foundation building spiritual fire of the evergreen gong to refine the magic weapon embryo.
Lu Changan is ready to use the fourth-order soul cultivation wood as the embryo of the future wood magic weapon.
At present, it mainly contains the spirituality of the soul wood, and establishes a relationship with itself through spiritual fire sacrifice.
What form of magic weapon will be created in the future has not yet been determined.
It's best to hire a trusted third-order refiner.
The candidate for the refiner, Lu Changan probably knew in his heart.
At the same time, he also cultivated talismans, puppets, and alchemy, and Lu Changan no longer had any more energy to delve into other immortal cultivation arts.
Among them, alchemy, has not yet been promoted to the second-order middle grade, and Lu Changan is almost giving up.
"Strange! Wen Yue hasn't come back yet? ”
After another three days, Lu Changan took the Xuanshui Turtle to breathe on Qiufeng Island and noticed an abnormality.
In the past few years, the root of the disease in Xia Wenyue's body has almost been cured.
Her body was no longer weak, and as a foundation building monk, it was impossible for her to stay on Autumn Wind Island all day.
Occasionally go out to communicate, scatter your mind, and go to Fang City and Xiancheng to purchase supplies.
Lu Changan knows very well that truly powerful monks have to go through the tempering of wind and rain, and it is difficult for flowers in the greenhouse to become big.
Until the evening of the same day.
A cold white light staggered and fell on Autumn Wind Island.
Lu Changan's complexion changed slightly, his figure flashed, and he supported Xia Wenyue, who was in a disordered breath and had a pale complexion.
Mr. Lu...... I was attacked. ”
Xia Wenyue's hair was messy, like a snowy white dress, torn and stained with blood.
There was a deep wound on the shoulder and lower back, stained with charred blood, as if it had been injured by a spell or magic weapon.
Fortunately, the injury was not fatal, and there was no danger to life.
"Who's doing it?"
Lu Changan was furious and injected evergreen mana to stabilize Xia Wenyue's injuries.
"It's a fake Dan real person, wearing a black power suit, covering his appearance. If it weren't for the life-saving hole card given by Mr. Lu and the patriarch, Wen Yue might not be able to come back today. ”
Xia Wenyue's heart palpitated, her chest rose and fell, and her pale face gradually returned to tranquility.
After a moment's effort, a false Dan-level escape light fell on Autumn Wind Island.
It was the patriarch Xia Hongyu who came from.
Seeing the injured Xia Wenyue, Xia Hongyu's face was gloomy as water, Rao is cultivation was like him, and anger appeared in his eyes.
"Mr. Lu, how is Wen Yue's injury?" Xia Hongyu suppressed his anger and looked at Xia Wenyue with concern.
"Patriarch Xia doesn't have to worry, Wen Yue's injury is not particularly serious, he hasn't shaken his foundation, and it's good to cultivate for a while."
Lu Changan's words made the big stone in Xia Hongyu's heart settle.
……
Half an hour later.
After the questioning, Patriarch Xia and Lu Changan secretly discussed in the study.
"Judging from the attacker's methods described by Wen Yue, it looks very similar to the old ghost Wu of the 'Crescent Chamber of Commerce'!"
"That old immortal, it's shameless! The fake Dan real person actually attacked a female baby in the early days of foundation building. ”
Xia Hongyu is no longer as elegant as before, and he is angry and corrupt.
The life-saving hole cards on Xia Wenyue's body include rune treasures, quasi-third-order talismans, third-order escape talismans, etc.
In terms of life-saving means, it is no worse than the core disciples of the Yuanying Sect.
If it weren't for that, under the attack of the fake Dan Zhenren, it would be difficult for Xia Wenyue to come back alive.
"How is the patriarch going to deal with this?"
Lu Changan said with a calm expression.
The cause and effect of this matter is most likely that the Crescent Chamber of Commerce doubts Xia Wenyue's qualifications and wants to strangle him in the cradle.
It's not that Xia Wenyue's innate Dao body leaked out.
It's that it's always the enemy who knows you best.
The hostile forces will inevitably study every key figure of the Xia clan.
Lu Changan once gave Xia Hongyu an opinion, sending Xia Wenyue to the Yuanying-level faction, and the three sects of Jing State were not qualified.
Xia Hongyu always wanted to keep Xia Wenyue in the family, as long as Xia Wenyue cultivated to the True Dan, he would have passed the dangerous period.
"Old Ghost Wu attacked the genius of his own clan, and Xia naturally wanted to fight back and retaliate with a tooth for a tooth."
Xia Hongyu's eyes were cold, and he did not hide his killing intent.
Lu Changan understood what he meant.
Since you murdered the genius who attacked the Xia clan, then I will also attack your genius.
Xia Wenyue was attacked, and it was useless to find the business alliance.
For such incidents, the business alliance's handling method is that whoever asserts it will provide evidence.
If the Xia clan suspects that Old Ghost Wu is doing it, he must provide ironclad evidence on his own.
Unless it is a particularly bad and influential case, the senior management of the business alliance will send people to strictly investigate.
"Old Ghost Wu misses, he must be on guard, if Patriarch Xia takes revenge on their genius, it will be difficult to be effective. Maybe they will fall into their trap. ”
Lu Changan did not approve of Xia Hongyu's revenge.
"Hehe, Xia didn't actually plan to do it himself, waited for this rumor, spent a lot of money, and asked the killer of the black market to come forward."
"As long as there are enough spirit stones, fake Dan-level killers can be invited."
Xia Hongyu is worthy of being a monk of the health school, he is too old to do it.
"If you just kill one or two late-stage stars, you won't be able to solve the fundamental problem."
Lu Changan sighed.
"What is Lu Daoyou's opinion?" Xia Hongyu looked at it suspiciously.
"Hit the snake and hit the seven inches, and the thief will capture the king first."
"What does Lu Daoyou mean by killing the old ghost Wu of the Crescent Chamber of Commerce?"
Xia Hongyu frowned slightly, feeling a little whimsical.
"To kill an old fake Dan like Old Ghost Wu, at least you have to move more than two people of the same rank, and even ask the real Dan to make a move, Xia can't afford it."
Between fake pills, there is generally not much difference in strength.
It's normal to beat.
The difficulty of killing is quite large.
"A real old friend that Lu once met in Liang Guo has outstanding strength and is sure to kill the fake Dan. That real person happened to be in Jing Country recently, lacking spirit stones, third-order spiritual objects and medicinal herbs......"
Lu Changan said slowly.
"That old friend of Lu Daoyou, is he really sure to kill the fake Dan Zhenren?"
Xia Hongyu looked at Lu Changan with a strange gaze.
This notoriously good old man was able to contact a powerful killer?
"Sixty percent sure, Patriarch Xia would like to give it a try?"
"...... in terms of remuneration"
Xia Hongyu hesitated, afraid that he would not be able to afford it.
"You only need to hire twice the remuneration of a normal fake pill killer, and if you can't kill it, you can also return the reward."
"Good! Xia didn't believe in the killer, but he believed in Lu Daoyou's integrity. ”
Xia Hongyu quickly made a decision.
As long as the Great Elder of the Crescent Moon Chamber of Commerce is killed, the biggest threat to the Wufu Chamber of Commerce will be defeated.
Another fake pill of the Crescent Chamber of Commerce is a defeated subordinate of Xia Hongyu, so there is nothing to worry about.
……
Two days later, Xia Hongyu came to Autumn Wind Island again and handed over a storage bag to Lu Changan.
"Patriarch Xia, don't worry, I'll take the time to secretly contact that old friend."
Lu Changan glanced at the large pile of spirit stones in the storage bag, several third-order spirit grasses, and nodded with a smile.
After Xia Hongyu left.
Lu Changan extracted thirty percent of the proceeds from the storage bag and threw it into the ground.
Chirping!
The ground rat emerges from the ground and swallows the storage bag in one gulp.
"In another six or seven years, I will be able to be promoted to the ninth floor of the foundation and prepare for the knot. During this time, stability is more important than everything! ”
Lu Changan said secretly in his heart.
He is willing to help Xia solve hidden dangers, out of many considerations.
First, Xia Wenyue was in distress, which made Lu Changan unhappy.
Xia Wenyue is the seed he sowed, which is related to the fate of the distant future.
Second, the path to knot Dan is getting closer and closer, and a stable cultivation environment is needed.
Third, ground rats need to be self-reliant to increase the chances of actual combat.
As for this matter, the doubts that may be exposed, Lu Changan naturally considered it.
After getting along for so many years, Xia Hongyu is more clear about his personality, and he is the same kind of person as himself.
Moreover, he has been in the Xia clan for so many years, and after he has married Dan, he will say goodbye to this place.
When he achieves the true pill, those small doubts in the past are not worth mentioning at all.
As an old veteran in the immortal cultivation world, who hasn't had some connections and little secrets?
The next day, Lu Changan went out and came back within two days.
Ground rats are new to the assassination industry and have little experience.
He asked the incense master of the Infernal Gate to help collect information, check and fill in the gaps, and impart some experience.
……
Patriarch Xia has been paying attention to Lu Chang'an's movements since he paid his salary.
In the two days that Lu Changan went out, he was inevitably a little worried, would the other party run away?
Fortunately, Lu Changan soon came back again, and everything returned to normal.
In the following days, Patriarch Xia fell into anxious waiting, thinking about this matter every day.
After all, a huge amount of remuneration has been paid, and this matter is not trivial, and it is related to the fate of the two major chambers of commerce.
If you fail, leave the handle, and if you don't do it well, it will attract backlash.
Until two months later.
The exciting news came that Wu Feng, the great elder of the Crescent Chamber of Commerce, died in a mysterious assassination, and his bones were gone.
Something, the word count is a little less today. The plot of Yudan is also coming.。。
