This young beggar's name is Han Yi, and his father Han Fude was originally a wealthy man in Dengfeng County, and his family has thousands of hectares of fertile land.

But just three months ago, Han Fu visited Wei Zhenren and begged the other party to give him the technique of soul pulling, he wanted to meet his deceased wife who had been dead for many years, but he was confused by some unknown profound immortal art, and was willing to worship Wei Zhenren as a teacher, and dedicated all his family property to Songnan Palace.

Soon, Han Fu died in vain, and Han Yi, who was studying in Luoyang Taixue, received bad news from his father and hurried back from Luoyang.

Han Yi was very angry and came to reason with Wei Zhenren, but Wei Zhenren's apprentice broke a leg and threw him out of the Dao Palace, he was unwilling to leave, and since then he has become a beggar in Songnan Town.

In the end, Han Yi couldn't cry anymore, "My father was killed by them, the family property was occupied, and I had no way to sue, so I wanted to die and accompany my poor father!"

Frankly speaking, Li Zhen's face did not show much pity, he had seen and heard too much of this kind of tragic thing, he didn't have too much energy to comfort the poor beggar in front of him, his thoughts didn't stop for a moment, immersed in more important things.

Li Zhen patiently listened to Han Yi finish talking about his unfortunate experience, and when his feelings calmed down a little, he asked him: "I sympathize with your misfortune, but now I want to know what Wei Shifang's secret is?"

Han Yi trembled with fright, his body involuntarily shrank towards the corner of the wall, Li Zhen forced his gaze to look at him, his gaze fierce, "You're lying to me, aren't you! You don't know Wei Shifang's secret at all." ”

Han Yi was so frightened that he trembled, lowered his head and didn't dare to say anything, Li Zhen couldn't hide the disappointment on his face, shook his head and said: "You don't want to take revenge, you always count on others to help you, even if you are a beggar for a lifetime, you don't want to turn over one day." ”

Two lines of tears flowed from Han Yi's eyes, and he bit his lip and said, "I really don't know the secret of his soul pulling technique, if I really knew, I would have been killed by him a long time ago, but I know another secret of his." ”

"What's the secret?" Li Zhen looked at him coldly.

"About a month ago, I met a seriously injured thief, he sneaked into Songnan Palace to steal, and he appeared"

Han Yi's voice became lower and lower, as if he was the thief, at this time, the look of disappointment on Li Zhen's face completely disappeared, and he became full of interest, he listened to him quietly, and asked, "What you said is true?"

"It was the thief who sued me before he died, and I think it should be true. ”

Li Zhen pondered for a long time, if what Han Yi said was true, it would indeed be an unexpected gain, but he still needed to investigate it himself.

Li Zhen took out more than a dozen gold coins and handed them to him: "I'm afraid Songnan Town will not be safe in the past few days, you go to Dengfeng County to hide first, and I will try my best to help you regain your property." ”

Han Yi kowtowed again and again, "Thank you so much! Thank you so much!"

Han Yi limped and left first, and Li Zhen soon returned to Songnan Town and found an inn to live in.

As night fell, the town of Songnan became quieter, and most of the shops were closed, except for the one Qinglou in the east, which seemed to be always doing good business.

Priests young and unyoung kept coming out of the long wall, excitedly touching the tempting gate.

A tall middle-aged Taoist priest rushed to the front of the Qinglou with a blazing heart, and before he had time to experience the joy of life, a black shadow flashed next to the gate of the Qinglou, and slashed him on the neck with a slap, he suddenly fainted and was dragged into the night by the man in black.

Li Zhen carried the middle-aged Taoist priest into his room from the back window, he quickly peeled off his Taoist robe, took off the bamboo Taoist crown, and touched a bronze medal on his waist.

Li Zhen looked at it, and the words 'Miao Xuanzi' were written on it, which was probably the name of this Taoist priest.

"Who are you?"

The Taoist priest slowly woke up, but as soon as he asked a word, a big fist appeared in front of him, and there was a sharp pain in his brain, and he fainted again.

Li Zhen tied his hands and feet with ropes, and his mouth was also gagged with rags, and stuffed him into the cabinet.

Only then did he dress up in front of the mirror, and after a while, a young Taoist priest wearing a bamboo crown and a green sermon robe appeared in front of the mirror.

He smiled at the mirror and saluted, "Amitabha! ”

Something seems to be wrong

It was not until the second watch that the young Taoist priest turned out of the backyard of the inn, he had a long sword on his back, and his movements were very fast, and after a while, Li Zhen touched the outside of the wall of Songnan Palace.

He was very interested in Han Yi's secret to him, but he had to witness it with his own eyes to be sure that this secret existed.

Wei Shifang only had a hundred disciples a year ago, but since half a year ago, his disciples have surged, and in just a few months, there are nearly 800 Taoist priests in Songnan Palace, and Taoist seekers from all over the world hope to learn the art of immortals here.

The large number of newcomers made the Dao Palace very chaotic, which gave Li Zhen the opportunity, he climbed over the wall, tidied up the Taoist robes, and walked towards the inner courtyard in a hurry, his target was the Laojun Hall comparable to the palace, the Laojun Hall was located in the inner courtyard, and there was a team of Taoist priests patrolling around with knives.

It was this redundant patrol Taoist priest who made Li Zhen more interested in the items in the Laojun Palace, and when he touched into the Laojun Palace, he realized that there was something else in the palace, and the original hall was just a shell, but it was divided into several large warehouses by bricks and wood.

He quickly found the entrances to the warehouses, which, although locked, had ventilation windows, less than a foot high, but three feet wide enough for him to easily climb into.

However, Li Zhen infiltrated three warehouses in a row, and the warehouses were empty, without any items, and he did not have the military supplies that Han Yi had told him.

But when he infiltrated the last warehouse, a mountain of sacks appeared in front of him.

Li Zhenxun stepped forward and opened a sack with his sword, which turned out to be a bundled leather armor, about 30 pairs, although this was not the official equipment of the Tang Army, but it was also a military product that was strictly forbidden to be owned by the people.

Li Zhen even picked up more than a dozen sacks, which were all leather armor, he quickly calculated, there were at least three thousand pairs of leather armor in this warehouse, Li Zhen's eyes flashed with excitement, this Wei Zhenren hid so much leather armor in the Dao Palace, what did he want to do?

At this time, there was a faint light in the distance, and he realized that there was a hut in the corner, and the light came from the hut, Li Zhen ran over agilely, standing close to the door, from the gap in the door, he could clearly see the situation in the house.

There were about four or five Taoist priests in the room, gathering at a small table to drink wine and eat meat, and talk and laugh.

"I heard that a rich man will come over tomorrow, Chang'an Wang Yuanbao, have you heard of it?"

"Of course I know, Chang'an is rich! Master is going to be rich again. ”

"I don't think it's just about wealth, Master is going to have good fortune again. ”

"What do you mean by that?" several Taoist priests gathered together.

"You don't know, Wang Yuanbao's sister is also here, and she is a famous beauty in Chang'an. ”

Several Taoist priests understood and laughed together.

At this moment, Li Zhen suddenly felt something strange behind him, and when he turned around, he was suddenly startled, only to see a Taoist priest standing a few feet away, holding a military crossbow aimed at him.

But there was a sword blade on his chest, and his mouth was tightly covered by a hand, and it was obvious that the Taoist priest wanted to sneak up on him, but was killed by the person behind him.

A petite masked black-clothed man flashed behind the Taoist priest, and Li Zhen recognized her figure at a glance, it was Zhao Qiuniang who saved him in the middle of the night the day before.

But didn't Zhao Qiuniang go to protect Wang Yuanbao? Why did she appear again

Zhao Qiuniang beckoned to Li Zhen, and pointed to the Taoist priest who was killed by her, meaning that he would come over and help him dispose of the corpse

Leaving the Dao Palace, the two entered a pine forest halfway up the mountain, and Li Zhen looked up and down around her.

"Stinky boy, what are you looking at?"

"This beauty should be in the Shaolin Temple, right! Why did she grow wings and fly here? What a strange!"

"Strange your size!"

Zhao Qiuniang took off her mask, smacked him on the head, and scolded with a smile: "You saved your stinky boy's life, don't you thank me well, you actually questioned me first?"

Li Zhen covered his head exaggeratedly and said with a smile: "Oh no, I have revealed the secret of Sister Qiu Niang, she is going to kill people!"

"Stinky boy, leave my business alone, I'll ask you if you thank me for saving my life. ”

Although Zhao Qiuniang appeared strangely, no matter what, she did save herself, otherwise the Taoist priest would shoot an arrow

He also put away his joke and bowed deeply to Zhao Qiuniang, "Thank you Sister Qiuniang for saving my little brother's life twice." ”

Zhao Qiuniang smiled and said: "This is like words! Just have this heart, saving you is actually saving ourselves!"

"What did you say?"

Li Zhen immediately stepped forward and said with a smile: "Sister Qiu Niang, can you make it clear, why saving me is saving yourself, who are you?"

"Why are you like a buzz in a latrine, you drill into a crack when you see it!"

Zhao Qiuniang knew that she had missed her mouth, she kicked Li Zhen with a smile and explained to him: "You should know the relationship between my master and Shangguan Sheren, she entrusted my master, and my master asked me to help you, as for guarding Wang Yuanbao, it was just the right time." ”

If Zhao Qiuniang said this reason before, Li Zhen would be convinced, but Zhao Qiuniang's deliberate explanation at this time made Li Zhen not believe it, Zhao Qiuniang was obviously hiding something?

"Stop thinking nonsense, talk about what's in front of you!"

Zhao Qiuniang saw doubts in his eyes, knowing that he was beginning to doubt, and hurriedly interrupted his train of thought, "With so much leather armor, what are you going to do with it?"

This sentence pulled Li Zhen's train of thought back, he thought about it, there seemed to be no garrison near Songshan, so he could only rely on the Dengfeng County Government.

He rolled his eyes twice, and then said another doubt in his heart, "Where are the black-clothed people who assassinated me in Dengfeng County?"

Zhao Qiuniang sneered and said, "They are still staring at you in the dark!"

"In the shadows?"

Li Zhen turned around exaggeratedly, and looked into the woods on both sides, "Why didn't you see the poor road?"

Zhao Qiuniang was amused by his funny appearance, she giggled and said: "I'm going back to tell your eldest sister, her brother wants to become a Taoist priest, I expect her to serve you well with a rolling pin, and watch you pretend again!"

Li Zhen's interjection diluted Zhao Qiuniang's unexpected embarrassment, Zhao Qiuniang secretly praised him for his intelligence and interest, and said: "It's not that they don't want to attack you, but they are waiting for orders, if they don't continue to assassinate you, even if they pass by you face to face, they won't touch you a single hair." ”

Li Zhen paced back and forth in the woods with his hands in his hands, and his mind quickly pondered the connections between several events.

First of all, he secretly went to Songshan to investigate the task from Emperor Wu Zetian, which doomed this matter to be extraordinary, Shangguan Wan'er also told herself, Wei Shi Fang was recommended by Xue Huaiyi to Shengshang, so investigating Wei Shi Fang is actually investigating Xue Huaiyi.

It wasn't until the night before yesterday that he thought it was to investigate Wei Shifang's pseudo-immortal arts, and it wasn't until he saw thousands of leather armors with his own eyes tonight that he suddenly realized that things were not so simple.

Who leaked their secret mission, who was the man in black who assassinated him? Where is their next target? and even what is Zhao Qiuniang's true identity?

Weaving a series of questions together, a clear secret battle appeared, and Wu Zetian might just want to know the secret of Wei Shifang's immortal arts.

But beneath this secret lies a larger maelstrom of conspiracy, around which the two sides are engaged in a fierce struggle to see who is the first.

Li Zhen took out his silver medal and handed it to Zhao Qiuniang, "Please ask the donor of Qiuniang to go to Dengfeng County immediately, and let the county order lead the officials to Songnan Palace." ”

Zhao Qiuniang took the silver medal and looked at it, she knew that this was the silver medal of the emperor's personal guard, and she had a lot of power, the question was whether the little Dengfeng county order knew this silver medal?

"Are you sure this silver medal will work for the Dengfeng County Order?" Zhao Qiuniang asked suspiciously.

Li Zhen shook his head, "I don't know, but we have no other way than to find the Dengfeng County Ya, let's do our best!"

Zhao Qiuniang nodded, she was also about to go to Dengfeng County, "I'll be back at noon tomorrow at the latest, take care of yourself!"

Zhao Qiuniang left the pine forest and ran down the mountain, Li Zhen looked at her figure and walked away, and then slowly returned to his inn like a wandering Taoist
