Chapter 86: One Man, Three Hospitals
Bai Yu found an interesting phenomenon, Gu Liu Zhenren's route went around the main streets in the imperial city, as if walking a maze, and as if someone else's girlfriend was shopping, if it was tracked by ordinary people, it would definitely be dizzy, but unfortunately the eye of detection has been locked, no matter how fancy Gu Liu Zhenren's escape route is, it still can't hide his magic eye.
He directly found the exit of the labyrinth, followed the route of Guliu Zhenren out of the imperial city, arrived at the dock, and got on the official ship.
"That's King Ming."
"The lower officials pay a visit to King Ming." ......
In the past, when Bai Yu took over the case and went out on the official ship in the Demon Eradication Division, he didn't have to deal with the court officials, and the court officials didn't have to deal with him, as if the husband and wife who had been married for decades looked at each other and hated each other.
Now, his treatment on the official ship is obviously different, and all the officials hurriedly came over to greet him with a smile on their faces.
This is officialdom, and it's not chilling to talk to the officials...... Of course, it may not be that in order to slap him, don't think of every official as a slap on the wrist, maybe people just don't want to leave a rude impression on him, and they don't mean anything else.
Bai Yu showed a reserved face, exchanged a few words with them, and simply made a "speech", and after more than half an hour, he entered the cabin, so as not to let the officials feel the pressure of the prince.
Three days later, they arrived at the original state capital.
During these three days, Bai Yu used the Eye of Detection from time to time to check the route of Guliu Zhenren, so as not to override the boat.
Entered the capital city of Yuanzhou.
Bai Yu walked into a ready-to-wear shop at random, picked out a regular clothes to change into, his python robe and jade belt were too eye-catching, and when he came out of the palace, he directly tracked down Gu Liu Zhenren and forgot to change his clothes.
Both the shopkeeper and the clerk turned pale with fright, huddled in the corner, and shivered.
When Bai Yu checked out, the shopkeeper cried with a sad face and gave up his hands like a plague, "Uncle, I call you uncle, okay, don't want money, you better hurry up, pretending to be a prince is a big crime of raiding the family and exterminating the family, and the small business of this store can't be sticky." ”
There were already a lot of people watching the excitement outside the shop, pointing and whispering, it was the first time I saw someone pretending to be a prince, and openly running to the street to buy clothes, he was definitely a madman.
Bai Yu didn't explain, he took out two taels of silver tickets and put them on the counter, then turned around and left, probably seeing that he was wearing a python robe and jade belt, but there was no big python phantom, mistakenly thinking that he was pretending to be a prince.
From this point of view, King Ming did not have the phantom of the python, and he was still in the upper circle of the imperial city, and it had not spread so far in just a few days.
Knowing that someone pretended to be a prince and openly swaggered to buy clothes, the adults of the yamen of the former state capital city turned blue and their noses were crooked.
Of course, Bai Yu didn't know that he had stabbed a hornet's nest, in fact, it had only been a few days since he was awarded the title of prince, and he only knew that the prince was majestic, but he had not yet fully figured out the extent of the prince's influence.
He continued to track down Guliu Zhenren.
Eventually, I came to three remote courtyards.
That's right, Guliu Zhenren lived in three small courtyards alone.
According to the route seen by the Eye of Investigation, it can be known that Guliu Zhenren first lived in the small courtyard, and then left a clone, and the real body lived in the small courtyard next door, and left a clone, and the real body lived in the small courtyard next door, which can no longer be said to be cautious, it is a bit outrageous.
Unfortunately, under the observation of the Eye of Detection, all camouflage and concealment are nowhere to be hidden.
"Bang", Bai Yu directly kicked open the door, walked in, confident letter, after having the [King's Domain], basically no one can kill him, unless he doesn't talk about martial arts and makes a sneak attack, he is not afraid of anyone.
I saw Gu Liu Zhenren's real body disguised as a middle-aged man with a scruffy beard, chopping wood.
The middle-aged man looked at him suspiciously, "Who are you and why did you break into my house?" ”
Bai Yu smiled, "I'm looking for Guliu Zhenren, have you seen it?" ”
The middle-aged man's face changed and quickly returned to normal, shaking his head slightly, "What Guliu real person, I haven't seen it." ”
After a while, you will get addicted to the drama...... Bai Yu didn't feel interesting, "Okay, Guliu Zhenren, don't pretend." ”
The middle-aged man frowned, "Inexplicable, I don't know what you're talking about." ”
It seemed that when he heard the movement, the "neighbor" in the next yard came over, in fact, he was the doppelganger of Guliu Zhenren, who seemed to be an old man.
He persuaded, "This little brother, we really haven't seen any Guliu real people, Wang Han is my neighbor, and I watched him grow up since he was a child." ”
The "neighbor" who lived next door also came over, looking like a young man.
He looked at Bai Yu with annoyance, "You shouldn't be a crazy person, what do you want to do when you suddenly break into Uncle Wang's house, Uncle Wang took care of me when I was a child, if you want to trouble Uncle Wang, I won't agree!" ”
The two "doppelgangers" testified to the "real body", and Guliu Zhenren really wanted to figure it out......
Bai Yu said flatly, "Elderly and middle-aged young people, three men live in three small courtyards, and they don't even have a parent, wife, and children, Guliu Zhenren, don't you think it's strange to disguise like this?" ”
The three of them changed color, their eyes were cold, and they stared at Bai Yu together.
The middle-aged man sneered, "You are very capable, you can find me hiding here incognito, who are you?" ”
There are some things that need to be understood in detail...... Bai Yu didn't plan to make a move immediately, "King Ming, Bai Yu." ”
"The new emperor announced to the world that there are three kings with different surnames, the king of Jinnan, the king of Ning, and the king of Ming, you are the king of Ming?"
The middle-aged man was startled at first, then amused, and looked behind him, "You casually pretend to be an official with no rank and no power phantom, I still believe it, pretending to be a prince, are you qualified?" ”
Bai Yu had an idea, some of the books in the East XZ Bookstore were not there, so he asked if he didn't understand, "What if my python phantom is hidden?" ”
The middle-aged man shook his head, "In the imperial system, civil and military officials, military officials, concubines, princesses, and clansmen, all the power phantoms cannot be hidden, and there are only two types that can be hidden: one is to lose the body and only have the soul; Second, the emperor's true dragon can also shrink and hide. ”
is worthy of being a real person in Guliu, and he knows a lot......
Bai Yu understood, he used to be a secretary in the Criminal Department, and once he solved a case with Zheng Yan'er to eliminate demons, and the six-rank civil official Cheng Yan he met was in a state of soul, which could hide the phantom of power; As for the emperor shrinking and hiding the true dragon, he hadn't seen it.
Bai Yu said, "Let me tell you the truth, I am really King Ming, and my cultivation system is rejected by the imperial system, so there is no python phantom." ”
The middle-aged man was shocked, "The imperial system is inclusive, even if it can be accommodated, I have never heard of any cultivation system that will be rejected by the imperial system." ”
Character cards are the most special cultivation system...... Bai Yu said, "Believe it or not, I'm telling the truth anyway. ”
The middle-aged man was silent for a moment and asked, "Who sent you to track me?" ”
Bai Yu didn't answer this question directly, "You have already asked me a question, and I answered you truthfully, for the sake of fairness, should I ask you?" ”
The middle-aged man said, "What do you want to know?" ”
Bai Yu pointed to the point, "What is the relationship between you and Concubine Yi, that is, the current Queen Mother?" ”
The middle-aged man was silent for a moment, and said slowly, "In the years that I have followed the old emperor, I have occasionally had a chance to meet Concubine Yi, and I have a little friendship. ”
"You're not telling the truth!"
Bai Yu said, "You and Concubine Yi are not just a little friendly, right?" As far as I know, in the days when the old emperor faked the collapse, Concubine Yi came to the palace where you lived from the harem to find you, and after that, Concubine Yi returned to the harem, and she turned into a phoenix, obviously Concubine Yi Guifei Jiuluan turned into a phoenix and had something to do with you. ”
"Looks like you know a lot ......"
The middle-aged man glanced at him deeply, "I didn't believe you were King Ming just now, but now I believe it, it is impossible for ordinary people to know such a confidential thing, that's right, the old emperor deliberately controlled the number of times the three concubines were fortunate in order to balance the harem, so as to prevent the three concubines from turning into phoenixes, it was I who helped Yi Guifei to turn into phoenixes and broke the balance of the harem." ”
Bai Yu said, "How did you help her turn into a phoenix?" You don't have an affair with her, do you? ”
The middle-aged man wondered, "Now I doubt that you are the king of Ming, the dignified king of Ming should not even know the rules of the harem, right?" Only the emperor is fortunate to be a concubine, the power of the concubine will rise, if the concubine has a personal affair with an outsider, the bird will not only not rise, but also weaken, so no concubine in the harem dares to go out of the wall, from the rise and fall of the power of the bird, who dares? ”
Bai Yu said, "Then how did you manage to make her turn into a phoenix?" ”
The middle-aged man said, "It's very simple, when I usually ask the old emperor for a little dragon qi on the grounds of specializing in imperial luck, over time, it will accumulate into a lot, and finally infuse it into Yi Guifei together, so that she can turn into a phoenix." ”
Bai Yu was puzzled, "Why did you help her?" ”
The middle-aged man sensed that something was wrong, "This is the first question you asked me?" ”
Bai Yu said, "You answer all my questions first, and then I will tell you all the things you want to know, don't worry about me cheating, for me, you are already a dead man, I don't need to hide it from a dead man." ”
"You're pretty conceited!"
The middle-aged man sneered, "I'm not afraid of you cheating, I'll catch you and torture you later, I'm not afraid that you won't say it!" ”
Bai Yu didn't bother to fight a war of words, and continued to ask, "Why did you help her?" ”
The middle-aged man's expression became melancholy, "That's a long story, I was originally a scholar in the Yuanzhou Mansion, a poetry and book heirloom, a family with a thin property, and a beautiful and virtuous wife, the old emperor had a private visit to the Yuanzhou Mansion......"
After listening to such a bloody beginning, Bai Yu had already guessed the back, and waved his hand directly.
"Okay, I already know that the old emperor took a fancy to your beautiful wife at a glance, your wife would rather die than obey, bite her tongue and commit suicide, in order to take revenge, you abandoned the pen and cultivated the Tao, and finally succeeded in practicing hard for twenty years.
When the old emperor recruited the side door to continue the longevity of the Yuan, you took the opportunity to sneak into the palace and proposed to the old emperor the wise saying that "the dynasty is like a big tree, and the branches and leaves should be pruned".
So as to kill King Qing, and then guide the three princes to compete for the throne, and finally infuse Yi Guifei with dragon energy, so that she can break the situation with Jiuluan and turn into a phoenix, so that the five princes can successfully force the palace and kill the faint king, right? ”
The middle-aged man looked at Bai Yu, "What you said later is roughly right, what you said earlier is not right, the old emperor has never seen such a beauty, how can he fall in love with my wife?"
He passed by in front of my yard on a private visit, and one of my bald-tailed dogs rushed out and barked at him, and the eunuch who followed him said, 'The bald-tailed dog barks unknown', and because of this sentence alone, he killed my whole family and sent a sea arrest document to arrest me.
I couldn't read the book, and I had to avoid being wanted, so I could only flee to the deep mountains and old forests, and inadvertently broke into a Taoist temple and worshiped the teacher.
Actually, I didn't think about revenge at all, I am the emperor, how can I take revenge?
I just lived in secret, practicing silently in the Taoist temple.
When the old emperor's life was short, he recruited the world's wizards to extend his life, and I didn't know where I learned about this Taoist temple, and named my master to enter the palace, but my master was already lying on the sickbed and couldn't get up, so I had to let me enter the palace.
After entering the palace, when I got to the old emperor, I saw the old emperor who was dying, and I had the idea of revenge, and if I didn't take revenge, he would die of old age.
So, I started to plan step by step, just like you said later. ”
Since you don't fancy your wife, what do you tell me that your wife is beautiful and virtuous? Bai Yu felt a toothache, not because he wanted to be crooked, but because this middle-aged man didn't speak in the right way.
Bai Yu said, "You are also a poor person, there is nothing wrong with revenge, but you have made waves and killed countless people, this is your fault." ”
The middle-aged man sighed, "I don't want to kill so many people, but I can't, the emperor has the power of a true dragon, no one can kill the emperor, it's useless to even poison it, I don't know what method you used to kill the old emperor, anyway, I can't do it alone." ”
Bai Yu kept his promise, "I already know everything I want to know, what do you want to know, just ask." ”
The middle-aged man asked, "I'm still starting that question, who sent you to track me?" ”
Bai Yu said, "Yi Guifei, that is, the current Queen Mother." ”
The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, and then smiled with relief, "That's right, you need my help when you infuse, and it's normal to want to kill me, but she sent the wrong person, if she sent one of the King of Jinnan or the Demon Exterminator, I would turn around and flee without saying a word, and send a young prince without a big python, it would be too underestimated for me." ”
Why do you look down on you, you don't have points in your heart? Bai Yu asked, "What else do you want to know?" ”
The middle-aged man shook his head, "No." ”
Rumble! ......
The air was humming, middle-aged men, old men, young people, one real body and two doppelgangers, shot at the same time.
Bai Yu has nothing to say.
Within a hundred zhang, one thought is king.
King Realm!
He disappeared from the spot in an instant, avoiding the siege of "one truth and two points".
The middle-aged man, the old man, and the young man all changed their faces greatly, knowing that they had met a top master!
However, it was too late to escape.
In other words, when Bai Yu found this place, it was already too late......
Within a hundred zhang, one thought is king!
The middle-aged man, the old man, and the young man suddenly felt a big mountain pressing down on their bodies.
"Poof" The middle-aged man was pressed and spurted blood, his muscles were blood-red, his bones "creaked", his burly body was like a bent bow, his feet were deeply sunk into the ground, his knees were trembling, and he almost knelt.
The real body couldn't bear it, and the two clones of the old man and the young man collapsed in an instant, and the two "poofs" became two pieces of blood mist.
Within a hundred zhang, one thought is king!
A blood flower, the middle-aged man's head suddenly fell, as if slashed by an invisible blade, "bang", the burly body fell, shaking a cloud of dust.
Bai Yu rummaged through the corpse of Guliu Zhenren, found a few things, and searched the house again and found a few things, which were nothing more than the "flying swords" and "talismans" used by cultivators.
It's just that the flying sword and talisman seal haven't had time to be used, and the person is already dead.
Within a hundred zhang, one thought is king!
The corpse of Guliu Zhenren seemed to be grabbed by an invisible hand and thrown into the house.
Bai Yu turned around and strode away.
I didn't see him lighting the fire, and the three small courtyards behind him suddenly turned into a sea of fire.
