Chapter 54: Qian Lingwu

"Is my divine sense getting stronger again?" Zhao Xinyi was a little apprehensive.

"Your current divine consciousness has reached the golden pill stage!" Lao Huang said lightly.

Zhao Xinyi didn't feel any joy, but was full of bitterness, because he knew very well how his divine sense had been improved.

Lao Huang snorted and said, "You kid is really in the midst of blessings and don't know the blessings!" It's a pity that you don't have a spiritual vein, and your cultivation can only be stuck in the ninth layer of the Qi refining period, and you can't go further, otherwise, it's not good that your kid's cultivation can break through to the ninth layer of the foundation building stage in one breath this time, and even step into the Jindan stage with one foot! What a pity! "Lamentation.

Zhao Xinyi wanted to die even more when he said this, and muttered: "I won't have become a heinous demon cultivator, right?" ”

Lao Huang sneered and sneered: "Where are the immortals and demons in this world, everything is respected by strength, but the winner is an immortal, and the loser is a demon!" ”

Zhao Xinyi ignored him, and was fighting with heaven and man alone, and there was a sudden knock on the door, and a feminine male voice sounded from outside the door: "Zhao Gongzi, the old slave was ordered by the emperor to invite Gongzi to enter the palace to see him!" ”

Zhao Xin waved away the messy thoughts in his mind, secretly wondering why he came so early, and replied, "It's here!" "When I opened the door, there was an old eunuch outside the door, chubby, white, with snow-white hair, kind eyebrows, and the whole person was round and round, and seemed to have no edges and corners.

The old eunuch looked Zhao Xin up and down, and his smile became even stronger, "Zhao Gongzi is already fine." It seems that this bamboo frame is useless! ”

Zhao Xin glanced at the bamboo frame carried by the two soldiers on the corridor, and tried to calm his mind and said, "I'm bothered!" ”

The old eunuch made a brief introduction, and it turned out that this old eunuch who looked very gentle was actually Lin Shi, the governor of Dongchang. The Governor of Dongchang is the second person after the chief eunuch in charge of the seal, and is in charge of the two most unreasonable yamen, Dongchang and Jinyiwei, who can supervise the arrest of ministers and civilians at will, and the edict that everyone fears is under his control.

However, this is all a matter of the previous dynasty. Emperor Hongyuan of this dynasty reduced the power of Dongchang when he first ascended to the throne, first stripped off Jinyiwei, and then deprived Dongchang of the right to arrest, and now he is only assisting the three divisions on behalf of the palace to handle the case.

However, after all, Yu Wei is still in Dongchang, and Lin Shi, as the second person of the eunuch, personally came to invite Zhao Xinyi, which shows the importance of Emperor Hongyuan.

Lin Shi straightened his face, urged Zhao Xinyi to go on the road, and told the latter with sincere fear that if he missed the emperor's business, he would not be able to cut off ten heads. Zhao Xinyi was also a little nervous by his panicked look, after all, it was the first time in his life that he had faced a saint, and he was also a master at the peak of the Jindan period.

Downstairs, two carriages had been prepared, Zhao Xinyi followed the old eunuch into the first carriage, and Zhou'er got into the second carriage with another woman. The cavalry in front opened the way, and the heavy troops in the back followed, and the group hurried to the palace.

Zhao Xinyi took out a talisman from his arms and said with a smile: "Gonggong Lin, there is no long thing in the lower body, only some ability to catch ghosts and exorcise evil spirits, this is a ghost exorcism talisman drawn below, it is quite effective, and please accept it with a smile!" ”

Lin Shi took the talisman and smiled even more, "I didn't expect that the son was already a talisman master at a young age, no wonder he could win the favor of His Majesty, but the old slave was disrespectful!" ”

Zhao Xin heard early in the morning that Dongchang and Jinyiwei were all over the world, and they were even more leaky in Kyoto, and said with a smile: "I want to ask my father-in-law for help in a small matter!" ”

Lin Shi said with a smile: "Son, please speak, if the old slave can help, he will naturally spare no effort." ”

Zhao Xinyi asked him about the news of his master, although he told it very hard, whether it was the appearance or words and deeds of the old Taoist, he tried his best not to miss anything, but no matter how he said it, it seemed very ordinary, Lin Shi naturally couldn't know everything about everyone who entered and exited the Beijing Master, and finally found nothing.

Zhao Xinyi was a little depressed, full of thoughts, and suddenly his face turned pale, and he hurriedly grabbed Lin Shi's shoulders and fell down towards the bottom of the carriage.

"Whoosh ......"

Two arrows shot through the curtain of the car, almost clinging to their shirts and hitting the wall on the other side. The arrow was driven deep into the plank, and the tail of the sword trembled.

"There are assassins!"

"Don't let them run!"

"Chase!"

Immediately there was a mess outside the carriage, and the sound of footsteps, exclamations, shouts, and smashing was all mixed together, rampage, and the sound was overwhelming.

Lin Shi was so frightened that he trembled, Zhao Xinyi came to the spirit, supported his palm on the bottom plate, flew out of the back of the car, and jumped out of the carriage with half of his body, his toes were on the ground, he bent upside down, flew up like a top, and his palm was pulled on the carriage again, and he fell to the carriage.

"Whoosh......"

When the foothold was not stable, the sound of breaking wind suddenly came from behind him, I don't know the direction, and the distance is less than a zhang, Zhao Xinyi seems to be difficult to dodge.

Zhou'er was directing the soldiers to go upstairs to arrest the assassin, and suddenly saw this scene, and reminded in a panic: "Little ......"

Zhao Xinyi seemed to have eyes behind him, and he seemed to have been prepared, so he didn't turn his head back, turned sideways slightly, and dodged the arrow just right. turned around and looked at the inn on the north side of the street, looking at a black-clothed man on the roof, although he was wearing a black robe, only a pair of eyes were exposed, but his delicate and hot figure was difficult to hide. It should be a woman, but I saw that her eyes were cold, revealing a piercing killing intent. Holding a longbow in his left hand and a feathered arrow in his right hand, he shot another arrow.

Zhao Xinyi turned sideways to avoid it again, and did not make much effort. The black-clothed man's right arm was half raised, as if he was going to take the arrow from the quiver behind his back, suddenly his eyes were half-narrowed, and his arm was also stiffened in mid-air, as if he hesitated slightly, and then his wrist flicked, and a faint blue light appeared in his hand, which quickly landed on the bowstring, turning into a blue arrow, and the cold air condensed.

Zhao Xinyi secretly said that it was not good, flicked his right arm, threw out a spirit rune, turned around and ran.

"Boom ......"

The spirit rune turned into fire and hit the man in black. However, the man in black did not dodge at all, the bow pulled the full moon, suddenly released, and the arrow passed through the center of the fire group.

In the car, the old eunuch listened to the movement outside and became smaller, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, trembled and bowed up a little, and with a "swish" sound, a blue light rushed away against his buttocks, and immediately his whole body was cold, he was scared half to death, and he was about to lie down subconsciously. However, the pouting buttocks froze there, and when I looked back, my buttocks were covered with a layer of finger-thick frost, and I couldn't help but be stunned and terrified.

Outside the car, Zhao Xin just hit the ground with one foot and was about to run wildly, but there was a cold air behind him. The heart is not good, so I hurriedly dodged sideways.

On the roof, the man in black snorted coldly, quickly pinched his hands, and the arrow that was about to be dodged suddenly paused, turning from one to two, and shot directly at Zhao Xinyi's henchman.

"It's broken!" Zhao Xinyi's soul was in danger, such a close distance, such a change suddenly occurred, and there was no way to hide now.

"Smack!"

At the critical moment, a silver light swept quickly, smashing the two blue arrows, and the debris was scattered everywhere, hitting Zhao Xinyi's body coldly and painfully, and many holes were rubbed out of his clothes, and there was faint blood oozing out, looking extremely embarrassed.

Zhao Xinyi looked at the silver light, it was a silver whip, poked out from the front of the car, and the person holding the whip was a fat man. Seeing this person lifting up the hair covering his face, Zhao Xin couldn't help but be stunned, it was Qian Lingwu who was smiling.

Didn't he burn a charred corpse? How did you end up here? Also, what's going on with this body cultivation?

Zhao Xinyi was full of suspicion and was shocked.

Qian Lingwu smiled at Zhao Xin, tiptoed, and flew to the roof of the restaurant, as light as a swallow, agile as a monkey, where is there still a little connection with the clumsy fat man in the past!

The man in black took advantage of Qian Lingwuren to shoot two arrows in mid-air, turned around and ran. Qian Lingwu flicked his whip and smashed two arrows, and landed lightly on the roof, not chasing, just quietly looking at the figure in the distance.

"Chase!" Zhou'er commanded a group of soldiers to chase after him.

Qian Lingwu turned his head and waved his hand: "No need to chase!" ”

Zhou'er bowed his head and waved his hand, and the soldiers immediately returned to their positions.

Qian Lingwu took the long whip, stretched out his arms, and slid down from the roof. fell three feet away in front of Zhao Xinyi, pulled the corners of his mouth, and said angrily: "Look at you like this, what the hell did you see in broad daylight?" ”

Zhao Xin slowed down, and the ghost envoy said: "Almost!" ”

Qian Lingwu glanced at him, "You kid really knows how to climb along the pole!" Get in the car, Your Majesty is in a hurry, I can't afford to be guilty! So saying, he strode to the carriage, still acting as a coachman.

Zhao Xin got into the carriage with a heavy heart, opened the silk curtain, and saw the old eunuch's appearance, but he couldn't help it, and laughed out loud.

The old eunuch was not angry at all, and said in a trembling voice: "The assassin has been caught? ”

"Ran!" Zhao Xin jumped into the carriage and wanted to help the old eunuch up, but the latter grinned in pain, "It hurts, there is ice ......"

Zhao Xin was in a dilemma, and the old eunuch said: "Son, don't care about the old slave, just let the old slave lie here!" ”

"Father-in-law really doesn't need my help? Maybe I can break the ice! Zhao Xinyi pulled the corners of his mouth, and almost couldn't hold back his laughter.

The old eunuch gasped and said, "This ice is a bit evil, it's too strong, maybe go to the palace to make a pot of warm water bubbles." Let's do it first, it's still more comfortable! ”

The carriage continued to move forward, and Zhao Xinyi didn't care about him anymore, and silently quickly calculated in his heart.

Isn't Qian Lingwu a loser who doesn't learn and doesn't know how to do it? How did you come to this self-cultivation? Who is he? It's hard to say that he is the emperor's secret guard! What does he know? Judging by what had just happened, he seemed to know where the assassin came from, could it be their temptation to test me? What should I do?

Thinking about such a large number of problems gives me a headache. As soon as he came up with an idea, the carriage slowly stopped, poked his head out, and saw that he had arrived at the palace gate.

Qian Lingwu beckoned Zhao Xin to get out of the car, and at the same time showed the token to the general guarding the door, the goalkeeper looked at the token carefully, then looked at Qian Lingwu, and bowed.

Qian Lingwu beckoned Zhao Xinyi to follow him and led the latter into the palace gate. Later, Lin Shi was carried into the palace by two young chamberlains.

Entering the palace city, Zhao Xinyi looked around, the palace was tall, the square was wide, the walls and floors were all blue-black, the guards were everywhere, dressed in black heavy armor, holding a spear with a cold light, standing upright, lining the palace is even more magnificent and solemn, which makes people awe-inspired.

Zhao Xinyi thought secretly: "The palace is really different during the day!" ”

To tell the truth, he really came to the palace of Beiyan! Just two years ago, on the night of the Lantern Festival, the old Taoist priest took him to pretend to repair the lantern, and he really sneaked into the palace. The process went so smoothly that he smacked his tongue, and he was ready to pretend to be crazy and stupid at any time, but the doorkeeper only asked a chamberlain to take them in after a brief interrogation.

Later, he learned that they had taken advantage of a loophole. It turned out that the more than a dozen pleasing Eight Immortal lanterns ordered by the celebrant in the "Xinglongfang" were suddenly broken, so he asked someone from Xinglongfang to repair them. They said they were here to repair the lamp, and the doorman and the chamberlain took them in as if they were from Xinglongfang.

Now that he thinks about it, the old Taoist priest must have known the inside story, and he even suspected that the reason why those lights were broken had something to do with the old man.

When the waiter took them to no one's place, the old Taoist priest knocked the waiter unconscious, and sneaked to the imperial dining room with Zhao Xinyi.
