"You say yes first."

Wang Hu said in a deep voice: "If you can save my life, even if I owe you a favor, I will definitely remember it!" ”

"Okay."

Li Ang smiled heartily: "Don't talk nonsense, say it quickly, what secrets do you know." ”

Wang Hu took a deep breath and said solemnly: "I doubt it...... The alliance of the Gu Master Alliance advocates that Yuan Hua is possessed by demons! ”

"What?!"

Leon's eyes widened in surprise.

"That's right."

Wang Hu continued: "I am Chinese New Year's Eve two years old today, and I have been wandering in the Miao Xinjiang area for more than ten years, and I have seen a lot of things......

In recent days, I have occasionally encountered members of the Gu Master Alliance on the street.

Their faces are pale, their eyes are glazed, as if they are out of their bodies, and the whole person is completely devoid of themselves, turning into puppets like the walking dead!

Their whereabouts are secretive, as if premeditated, attacking passers-by, stealing or robbing.

But...... They do not kill innocents indiscriminately, nor do they harm ordinary people, but only specialize in martial arts practitioners and traders.

My guess is that they are looking for a Gu poison called the Soul Devouring Pill to use against those who practice martial arts! ”

"That's ...... so"

Li Ang touched his nose and cursed in his heart, the Gu Master Alliance actually stretched out its tentacles to civilians?

He was about to open his mouth to ask, when he suddenly heard a sharp knock on the door behind him.

Knock, knock, knock –

There was a quick knock on the door, as if there was an urgent desire to open the door.

"Please wait a minute."

Leon turned to the door of the shop, and saw through the cat's eye a short and fat man in a gray robe and a hat.

The stocky man seemed to notice the prying eyes cast in the cat's eye and immediately lowered his head.

Leon put down the cat's eye and opened the door.

"You're Dr. Lee, aren't you?" The short and fat man took off his hat, and a warm smile piled up on his face:

"Contemptible Zhao Wende, a guy from an antique shop in Jiangzhou City, came to Dr. Li today to ask you to help appreciate a few things."

Behind him was a wooden box on the shelf.

"Okay."

Leon nodded and motioned for the other party to come with him.

The two came to the stairwell one after the other, Zhao Wende took off the wooden box, opened the lid, and took out a swarthy, fluorescent copper coin from it.

"Dr. Li, this is the inheritance I collected from a victim, can you see if it is worth it?"

Zhao Wende sent the copper coin to Li Ang and looked at the other party expectantly.

The copper coin is carved with a dragon and a phoenix, and it can be vaguely distinguished that it is a statue of a god.

Li Ang glanced at the copper coin, frowned, and said, "This thing, left by tomb robbers?" ”

"Tomb robbers?"

Zhao Wende was stunned and said, "Is this an antique?" It's called the 'Son of Heaven Order'. ”

"Son of Heaven Order?"

Leon narrowed his eyes and carefully examined the information.

The Order of the Son of Heaven, as the name suggests, represents the emperor.

This edict of the Son of Heaven should be a token given by a certain king to a certain emperor's relatives in the current dynasty.

Historically, Qin Shi Huang Yingzheng's father Xiang Yu was a vassal of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and the so-called "Xiang clan" was a loyal supporter of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and served in the Han Dynasty for generations.

Later, Liu Bang took advantage of Xiang Yu's serious illness and led his soldiers and horses to attack Yanshan and killed Xiang Yu.

Liu Bang ascended the throne and became emperor, and the Xiang family was wiped out, leaving only Xiang Yu's younger brother Xiang Zhuang, who escaped his life because of his young age.

In order to save his brother's life, Xiang Ying left Yanshan with his brother's bones and fled to Lingnan.

Xiang Ying built the Heavenly Master's Mansion in Lingnan and adopted countless orphans.

After that, the Heavenly Master's Mansion gradually grew, and even set up branches in Jiangnan to cooperate with the government to open hospitals.

Because the Heavenly Master Mansion has a monopoly on the medical business of treating various diseases and detoxifying and healing injuries, it has a good reputation in Jiangnan Province and is respected by all parties, and even the signboard of the Heavenly Master Mansion has also been launched.

In recent months, the Heavenly Master's Mansion has researched a new type of Gu worm, called the "Soul Devouring Pill", which is specifically aimed at those who practice martial arts.

This Gu worm can not only devour the host's essence, yang longevity, and qi and blood, but also make the eater lose control and become a machine that only knows how to kill!

"I see."

Li Ang said suddenly: "No wonder the Gu Master Alliance dares to wreak havoc on the periphery, it turns out that it has already developed a Gu poison that can deal with people who practice martial arts.

However, you just mentioned that the Soul Devouring Pill was refined by Zhang Yuanhua? Could it be that he can refine Gu? ”

"This ...... Not really. ”

Zhao Wende shook his head and sighed: "According to the information I have, although Zhang Yuanhua is an alchemist, he doesn't understand the method of Gu refining.

But ......"

"Huh?"

Leon narrowed his eyes slightly, "But what? ”

"It is said that Zhang Yuanhua is a very powerful Gu master, and he is proficient in Gu insect breeding and is good at using Gu.

His attainments in Gu poison are extremely high, and he once refined the 'Soul Devouring Gu' that can capture souls, which is difficult to guard. ”

"Oh?"

Li Ang asked with interest, "Can he still use the Soul Snatcher Gu?" ”

"That's nature."

Zhao Wende nodded: "The Soul Reaver Gu is a strange insect egg that resides in the host's head, hatching every half month, and then hatching again after half a month.

As time goes by, the Gu worms get bigger and bigger, until the host's body can't bear it, and it will burst and die, destroying all forms and gods! ”

"Interesting."

Li Angmo rubbed his chin, nodded thoughtfully, and then asked, "Brother Zhao, what are you looking for me?" ”

"Hehe, I want to ask you to help me catch Zhang Yuanhua."

Zhao Wende said with a smile: "As long as I can capture him, I am willing to pay him."

After the matter is completed, except for this Son of Heaven Order, the other treasures are at your disposal.

Please don't reveal my whereabouts, or I may be in trouble......"

"Okay."

Li Ang grinned, revealing his white teeth, "Say, where is Zhang Yuanhua hiding now?" ”

"It's too complicated."

Zhao Wende scratched his scalp and said embarrassedly: "Zhang Yuanhua's body is hidden in a secret cave, and only a few people know the specific location. ”

"How do you know?" Li Ang raised his eyebrows.

Zhao Wende laughed twice, pointed to the TV cabinet in the corner and said, "This old-fashioned TV was moved from the Zhang family's warehouse......"

Li Ang immediately understood that Zhao Wende must have borrowed the surveillance video on the TV to investigate Zhang Yuanhua's hiding place.

However, Zhao Wende did not make it clear what exactly he needed to do.

"That's easy."

Li Ang patted his chest and said with a heroic smile: "Just a Gu Master Alliance, leave it to me to solve it!" ”

When Zhao Wende heard this, he showed a happy look.

Leon stood up, moved his muscles, and said, "What time is it?" ”

"Three o'clock in the afternoon." Zhao Wende replied: "There are still four hours before the dinner begins, Mr. Li, I will accompany you to the banquet." ”

Li Ang nodded and walked out of the hotel with Zhao Wende.

……

The Heavenly Master's Mansion is located deep in the mountains and forests on the outskirts of Lingnan City, occupying half of the hill, with a magnificent scale and scattered buildings.
