The masked old man was quite satisfied with Grandma Shang's analysis, bowed slightly, but said, "According to our intelligence, the Cloud Gate Sect has given up the investigation of Li Qingshan. As for the reasons for this, we don't know. However, the stolen Linggen Pill was still missing, so the old man felt that the Linggen Pill was still the most likely to be at Li Qingshan's place. But it is not ruled out that he does not have the possibility of it. ”

Hearing the masked old man say this, Grandma Shang was quite disappointed, and couldn't help but say, "In this way, Li Qingshan is not completely sure if there is really a Linggen Pill at the place?"

The masked old man nodded.

Grandma Shang was suddenly a little deflated.

Grandma Shang's expression naturally couldn't escape the eyes of the masked old man, and the masked old man snorted coldly, and said in a deep voice: "It is precisely because of uncertainty that the old man will give you this task, if you can be sure, do you think you still have a chance?"

When Grandma Shang heard this, she couldn't help but shudder, and secretly thought to herself: "The Immortal Sect is determined to obtain the Linggen Pill, if it is really sure that Li Qingshan has the Spiritual Root Pill, the Immortal Sect must have countless means to get it, in this way, it is indeed impossible for such an important matter to fall on her." It is precisely because of this uncertainty that she has the opportunity to make great achievements. ”

Thinking about it like this, Grandma Shang suddenly perked up, and she no longer was arrogant.

The masked old man naturally noticed the change in Grandma Shang's mood, so he encouraged: "You have to trust the old man's judgment, there is a good chance that the Linggen Pill is at Li Qingshan's place. Besides, you've been secretly spying on him for more than ten years, and there's no reason to be discouraged at the last minute. ”

Grandma Shang hurriedly said: "The subordinates understand, please rest assured, the subordinates should decide that Li Qingshan has the Linggen Pill to do." Even if you dig three feet into the ground, you have to find out the Linggen Pill. Moreover, this matter is the behavior of Fort Merchant, and has nothing to do with anyone. ”

The masked old man nodded with satisfaction and said, "The old man believes in your ability, you will not only be able to complete the task, but you will also be able to get out of the way." ”

Grandma Shang slammed her crutches on the ground, and said resolutely: "Li Qingshan has already gone to the Cloud Gate Sect, it is estimated that he will come back in the next two days, and he will definitely take action when he returns." If Liu Shiyuan can't get more valuable clues, his subordinates may have to use some extreme measures. In order to avoid suspicion, ask the elders to recuse themselves. In this way, the subordinates do not have any concerns. ”

The masked old man suddenly let out a few strange laughs, and said with a smile: "The old man has brought you a gift, I hope it can help you." ”

Grandma Shang exclaimed, "The elder has prepared a gift for his subordinates?"

The masked old man said, "Yes, the old man invited Li Qingshan for you." ”

Grandma Shang was even more surprised, looking at the masked old man with disbelief.

The masked old man admired this expression of Grandma Shang, because the superior was able to show some means in front of his subordinates from time to time that his subordinates would never think of, which was definitely conducive to maintaining their high majesty, and it was also easier to gain the awe of his subordinates.

The masked old man has undoubtedly done an extremely good job in this regard, and over the years, Grandma Shang has always been obedient to him and full of awe.

Although the masked old man was very proud in his heart, there was no trace of smugness in his tone, and he said in a deep voice: "Li Qingshan went to the Cloud Gate Sect this time, and at the same time, he also went to the Cloud Gate Sect for his son to carry out activities. However, this time, he was severely reprimanded by the head of the Ministry of Affairs because he failed to meet the standards for the purchase of medicinal materials. For this reason, he didn't have the opportunity to speak for his son, so he left the Cloud Gate Sect depressed. The old man happened to run into him on the way here, so he couldn't stand him, and took the opportunity to take him captive. ”

Grandma Shang never expected that the elder would actually take Li Qingshan captive. After a brief moment of shock, she immediately felt that there was no way back. However, fortunately, Li Qingshan's status in the Cloud Gate Sect is extremely low, and he belongs to the kind of dispensable state of slightness, for such a person, even if he is moved, it is not necessarily that the Cloud Gate Sect will stand up for him.

In addition, Grandma Shang also understood that since this was the case, she should show her determination to kill in front of the elders, and she couldn't have a trace of cowardice in front of the elders.

For this reason, Grandma Shang hurriedly said: "The elder really gave his subordinates a great gift, and his subordinates are very grateful. Since this is the case, I also asked the elders to hand over Li Qingshan to his subordinates. ”

The masked old man stopped talking nonsense, waved his hand, and a thin middle-aged man appeared in the secret room out of thin air. That man was none other than Li Qingshan. Li Qingshan was sealed by the masked old man, and he was in a complete coma, wilting to the ground.

Seeing Li Qingshan appear out of thin air, Grandma Shang was in a trance, she didn't know where the elder put Li Qingshan. Because cultivation can only reach the Void Realm in the body, and only then can one cultivate an inner world in the body like a physical space, and this inner world will increase infinitely with the improvement of the cultivation level, and in the end, let alone store one person, even mountains, rivers, sun, moon and stars can all be stored in the body.

However, the elder was obviously far from the Void Realm, so it was impossible for him to cultivate a physical space in his body that could store a large living person. So, where is this Li Qingshan hiding? Could it be that he has such a magic weapon on him?

Of course, although Grandma Shang was very surprised, she didn't dare to ask, this was not something she could ask casually.

The masked old man paid no attention to Grandma Shang's surprise, pointed at Li Qingshan and said, "He will hand it over to you, and the rest will be up to you." ”

After the masked old man finished speaking, he disappeared. Grandma Shang hurriedly bowed down and said, "Congratulations to the elder." ”

As soon as the masked old man was gone, Grandma Shang suddenly regained the majesty of the lord of the merchant fort, and her original rickety body was straight. glanced at the unconscious Li Qingshan with a pitiful look, and then slammed the dragon's head cane on the ground, and two black-clothed dead men emerged from the darkness like ghosts.

Grandma Shang coldly ordered: "Take him to the torture room, the old man has something to ask." ”

The torture chamber is just behind the chamber. The two dead men carried the unconscious Li Qingshan to the torture table like a chicken and tied him up, and then woke Li Qingshan up.

Li Qingshan seemed to wake up from a dream, with a look of confusion in his eyes, but he quickly woke up, and immediately realized that something was wrong, he was busy and found that he was actually tied up.

Li Qingshan was taken aback, and then saw an old woman standing not far in front of him, because the light in the room was dim, and he couldn't see clearly in horror.

"Who are you, and why are you arresting me?" asked Li Qingshan in horror.

Grandma Shang stomped out of the darkness, approached Li Qingshan, and said lightly: "Li Qingshan, it's a good luck." ”

Li Qingshan didn't know Grandma Shang, but he was very shrewd, and he quickly guessed that this old woman was probably the owner of Shangbao. Because, he has recovered his memory, remembering that he was inexplicably arrested in the territory of Xianju Town. And within the scope of this Xianju Town, only Shangbao has this strength. In addition, he heard that the owner of the merchant fort was an old woman, and the one standing in front of him at this time was an old woman, so he naturally thought of the merchant fort.

However, what he didn't understand was that although the merchant fort was mysterious, it had always had a good reputation in Xianju Town, and it was said that the castle owner almost didn't ask about the world and rarely appeared outside the castle, so he had never seen the castle owner of the merchant fort. Moreover, they and the merchant fort have always been well water and do not interfere with river water, why would they do it to themselves?

However, Li Qingshan held his identity as a disciple of the Cloud Gate Sect, and although he had always been low-key in this Xianju Town, he still paid attention to maintaining the majesty he should have, so although he realized that something was wrong, he still refused to lose his identity, so he pretended to be calm and said: "It must be the lord of the merchant castle." ”

Grandma Shang didn't hide it, and said: "Your Excellency really has good eyesight, yes, the old man is the owner of the merchant fort." It is a bit presumptuous to invite you to the castle today, and I hope you will not be surprised. ”

Sure enough, it's the people of Fort Merchant. Li Qingshan was inevitably taken aback, and immediately realized that something was wrong. Because since the merchant fort dares to blatantly mess with him, he will definitely not give him a way to live. He still has the most basic knowledge of this.

For this reason, Li Qingshan's face suddenly turned pale. But he still refused to lose his identity, and said calmly: "I, Li Qingshan, have no grudges with your merchant fort for a long time, and I have never had a grudge against the river water, so why do you treat me like this? Aren't you afraid that my Cloud Gate Sect will trouble you?"

Grandma Shang sneered: "Your Excellency is also a person who has experienced ups and downs, why are you still so naïve? If the old body is not absolutely sure, how can he rashly move you? ”

The other party really wouldn't leave a way for him to live, and Li Qingshan's face suddenly turned to ashes.

"Why?" Li Qingshan was silent for a while, and directly asked the biggest doubt in his heart.

Grandma Shang didn't want to go around in circles, so she said bluntly: "Linggen Dan." ”

Li Qingshan was shocked and exclaimed, "What did you say?"

Because it was not certain whether Li Qingshan really had a Linggen Pill, Grandma Shang was actually quite apprehensive in her heart. However, she knew something about Li Qingshan's city government, and if the Linggen Pill was really in his hands, he would be able to hide it from the Cloud Gate Sect, which showed the depth of his scheming. Therefore, Grandma Shang didn't plan to play tricks with him, because she believed that she couldn't play Li Qingshan, so it was better to be more direct.

In addition, Grandma Shang believed that she had an advantage over the Cloud Gate Sect against Li Qingshan, because she had no worries.

Grandma Shang said coldly, "Isn't the old body clear enough? The old body wants you to hand over the Linggen Pill in your hand." ”

Li Qingshan suddenly laughed, and said with a smile: "I don't know where you learned that you have the Linggen Pill in your hands?"

Grandma Shang said, "You shouldn't question the ability of the old body. If the old body is not sure, how can it easily move you?"

Li Qingshan knew that there was no hope for life, but he was not so afraid, and said disdainfully: "Even the Cloud Gate Sect can't judge that I have the Spirit Root Pill, how can you conclude that I have?"
