Chapter 378: A Guide of Fate

Silver Snow City.

Li Shuidao walked around the outer city and didn't find anything unusual.

The only possible one is the inner city.

Only members of the Zuo family can enter and exit the inner city, and outsiders are not allowed to enter or leave.

Li Shuidao does not have a token of the Zuo family on his body, but he can brush his face.

Li Shuidao gently put the hat on his head and quietly pressed it on his face with one hand.

The nephrite mask slowly deformed as if it were alive, tugging at his countenance, like a gossamer.

In the end, a dignified and slightly tired face hung on Li Shuidao's face, which was the head of the Zuo family, Zuo Zhongliang.

To be honest, he was still a little high-profile with this face, but Li Shuidao only remembered what Zuo Zhongliang looked like, and he couldn't remember the faces of other members of the Zuo family at all.

After changing his face, Li Shuidao walked generously towards the entrance of the inner city.

Before entering the inner city, you need to cross a wide and clear river, which is the moat of the inner city and the source of water for the entire city.

The monks of the inner city used the water of the river upstream, and the monks of the outer layer used the water of the river downstream......

Even the water in the upper reaches of the river is very clear because the monks do not defecate, but if the river flows outside, it is extremely muddy......

When Li Shuidao crossed the bridge, two guards stopped him.

"Stop!"

"Who's coming?"

"Is there a token?"

The two inner city guards shouted loudly, looking extremely fierce......

Li Shuidao raised his head slightly, revealing half of his face covered by the hat.

The two guards looked at Li Shuidao blankly as if they had been struck by lightning.

They have been rigorously trained in the family and have an in-depth understanding of each member of the family.

But the face in front of me, although it is only half a face, is extremely real and majestic. They stammered, "Head of the house." ”

A smile appeared at the corner of Li Shuidao's mouth, and his voice was low and majestic: "Don't be quiet." The two guards glanced at each other and immediately understood that they might have touched a corner of the family's core secret......

They stepped aside in fear, and moved the door out of the way. Li Shuidao slowly stepped into it.

After entering the inner city, Li Shuidao immediately pressed the brim of his hat down, covering his face under the hat more tightly.

He walked cautiously on the roads of the inner city, and did not change the appearance of his city lord.

This face is very useful in the inner city, if anyone wants to question his identity, then Li Shuidao can only use the "Taiyin Finger" to shut up him forever.

There didn't seem to be anything abnormal in the memory, but Li Shuidao could faintly feel a strange summoning......

It was as if something was calling him.

And the voice calling for him seems to come from the back house.

The back house is where the female dependents of Chengzhu lived......

Li Shuidao paid attention to the jade pendant on his waist, observed the surrounding environment, and slowly walked towards the back house.

There are also guards in the back house.

The two of them looked at Li Shuidao, who was wearing a hat, with a wary face, and were about to step forward to interrogate, when they saw that he took the initiative to take off the hat, revealing a majestic face.

"Lord of the Castle!" The two guards stepped back.

Li Shuidao nodded, and broke into the backyard generously, not even planning to wear a hat.

Nothing to hide!

The key to being a top position is momentum, and you must walk in the middle when you walk, and the momentum is violent, and the blocker is invincible.

The maids and subordinates in the backyard didn't dare to walk in the middle of the road at all, and when they saw the city lord coming in a tiger's step, they naturally pushed it aside carefully, and didn't even dare to raise their heads.

Of course, Li Shuidao is likely to meet the main owner "Zuo Zhongliang", and it doesn't matter if he encounters it, just kill it!

As the saying goes, there is no fear!

is not timid in his heart, he is a fake, naturally more real than the real thing.

He continued deeper into the back house, gradually approaching the inexplicable call.

Suddenly.

A quirky little girl walked in front of her, the girl was dressed as a maid, and when she saw Li Shuidao, her eyes immediately widened, she looked surprised, and then took the initiative to walk towards Li Shuidao.

The maid and the subordinates who had just met Li Shuidao either deliberately avoided the road, or stood carefully on both sides of the road, not daring to look at Li Shuidao at all, this girl not only did not dodge, but took the initiative to step forward, obviously she was very familiar with the city lord Zuo Zhongliang......

"Lord Castle, why are you here? Madame is looking for you! The maid said loudly.

Li Shuidao frowned, it seems that most of the "main master" is in the back house.

However, Li Shuidao didn't think that Zuo Zhongliang was a threat to him at all, he smiled slightly, nodded elegantly as the city lord and asked, "I don't know what Madame is looking for me?" ”

"Madame asked me to come to you, she has something to discuss with you."

Li Shuidao smiled faintly: "Take me there." ”

The little maid did not doubt him, so she took Li Shuidao towards the lady's room.

Li Shuidao followed slowly, and soon came to his wife's room, which was filled with a faint fragrance and was full of exquisite furnishings.

Madame sat on the edge of the bed with an anxious look on her face, and when she saw Li Shuidao, a trace of doubt appeared on her face.

"Xianggong...... Are you going to run in this outfit? The lady asked.

Li Shuidao is now wearing a black casual clothes, and the city lord usually wears brocade clothes, so he doesn't have this kind of clothes at all.

When Li Shuidao heard this, his face suddenly became solemn, he nodded, and motioned for his wife to continue.

When Madame saw his reaction, she immediately felt sad.

She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and continued: "As the head of the clan, how can you say that you will run? If you run away, what will happen to the safety of your family? What about the safety of our mother and child? ”

Hearing this, Li Shuidao thought for a moment and said softly: "Madam, I'm sorry, it's my incompetence that will put the family in this predicament." ”

Madame shook her head and said, "It's not your fault, if you want to blame that monster, you can actually plant corpse poison on us, and let us control the ghoul at any time, but husband, how did you get rid of the corpse poison on your body?" ”

Ptomaine!?

When Li Shuidao heard this, his face changed greatly, and he immediately pulled his wife over and began to observe it carefully.

He first examined his wife's tongue coating, which was unusually yellow and covered with a layer of mucus.

He checked his wife's pulse again, and found that it was unusually weak, and seemed to stop beating at any moment.

This poison is obviously "ice corpse poison".

This poison has already entered her body, and it has already permeated her internal organs, and it is difficult to remove it even if Li Shuidao personally takes action.

Corpse poison is not only extremely toxic, but also contagious, which is very tricky......

Li Shuidao's heart sank, he had realized where the danger came from?

The poison of this ice corpse was familiar, and it reminded him of the strange beast.

That strange beast that can make a sword, a beast body and a human soul, that guy is not simple......

"How did you get poisoned?" Li Shuidao asked with a knife-like gaze.

"That monster poisoned the well water, husband...... Isn't that what you told me? Madame asked with a stunned expression.

"Where is the monster now?" Li Shuidao asked with a solemn expression.

Madame looked at Li Shuidao nervously, with a touch of irrepressible horror in her expression, and she said in a trembling voice: "You...... You're not my husband? Who exactly are you pretending to be? ”

Li Shuidao pressed a finger to the big hole on his wife's chest, and she couldn't move as soon as her body was weak.

"Tell me where the monster is now?" Li Shuidao asked in a low voice.

"Jade ...... Yuquan River. Madame replied in a trembling voice.

Yuquan River?

Li Shuidao frowned, the river was a little impressed, but he couldn't remember where it was for a while.

"This river flows down from Yunmang Mountain, winds through Silver Snow City, circulates the inner city, flows through the outer city, and flows out of the city." Madame explained.

Li Shuidao showed a look of horror, and he remembered what kind of river the Yuquan River was, it was the moat of the inner city of Silver Snow City, and it was also the source of water for the entire adult monks and mortals.

Every mortal uses the water of the Yuquan River, the wine, and the tea that is brewed by the Yuquan River......

The tea that Nangong Qin drank in the teahouse today was also brewed with the monster's corpse poison water.

Li Shuidao's face turned green.

"I see." Li Shuidao pointed into Mrs. Tanzhong's acupoint.

Madame rolled her eyes and fell unconscious on the spot......

The danger is clear, obviously quite dangerous, and there is no chance in sight.

Remove!

A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, far away from this place of right and wrong.

Li Shuidao resolutely turned around and walked out of the door of his wife's room, but as soon as he left the room, he took less than two steps, and the inexplicable call became stronger and stronger!

He turned his head to look at the garden, and the summons came from the flowers......

It's close......

That strange beast was hiding in the Yuquan River, it shouldn't be in the garden, not to mention that with the strength of that strange beast, it was easy to kill himself, and there was no need to deliberately call for such trouble.

As the saying goes, "where blessings and misfortunes lurk, and where misfortunes and blessings depend", according to fate, everything in this world is a crisis and a blessing and misfortune coexist, this is the way of heaven!

Li Shuidao's face sank, and he decided to go into the garden. Since he came, he didn't delay this opportunity, and the jade pendant on his waist did not emit a dazzling red light, indicating that there was no major risk in this trip.

He walked slowly to an ancient well, confirming that the call from the bottom of his heart was coming from this ancient well.

Li Shuidao jumped off the ancient well and was suspended on the well.

The calm water of the well, with a ripple, made a huge turtle emerge from the well.

There are nine lattices on the back of the turtle, which is the Nine Palace Turtle.

Penglai Immortal Sea: Nine Palace Turtles.

This demon beast is the same demon beast of the Penglai monk, and there is an identical one in the temple of Li Banxian in the Ink Immortal City, but the size is too small to be a grandchild, and this is a grandfather.

The corners of Li Shuidao's mouth showed a touch of irrepressible ecstasy: the third-order nine-palace turtle.

This turtle is not vicious, and it even has a humane and kind expression on its face.

"Are you calling me?" Li Shuidao asked.

The big turtle opened its mouth, and slowly spoke, and said in an old voice, "Yes, young man...... You are the descendant of the Penglai lineage. It was fate that led you here, please follow the guidance of fate and take me out of here. “
