Chapter 101: Red Candle

When Wang Shuo returned to Qingyuan Hall, he found that there was already a person sitting in the room.

Wang Shuo closed the door and asked, "Shangguan Yushi has been visiting for two consecutive days, so do you have to test it down?"

Shangguan Yu's face was expressionless, and he asked coldly: "The official asked you to go, why did you ignore it?"

"Lord Yushi can't figure it out, and suddenly wants to go to the lower official, how dare the lower official?" Wang Shuo sat down at the round table and looked at Shangguan Yu.

This person is dressed as a woman today, with long hair curled up, a long cyan dress, and a light rouge gouache on her face.

But there was still an indifferent image on his face: "You are just a Taishi, as a subordinate official, the words of the imperial history are orders, don't you know?"

Wang Shuo shrugged: "It's rare to see Shangguan Yushi dressed as a daughter, obviously she is a beauty, why bother pretending to be a man." Isn't there something urgent that you didn't have time to change into this woman's dress and came to find the next official?"

Shangguan Yu's expression changed slightly, and his originally extremely indifferent demeanor relaxed a little: "This official is not here to argue with you, but to ask you to kill someone for me, do you dare?"

Hearing this, Wang Shuo was stunned: "Murder?

"Although the East and West Heavenly Maidens have ceased war, both sides have made full preparations for the follow-up war, and there are not a few spies planted by each other!

Wang Shuo got up, thought quickly in his mind, and said after a long time: "Why do you have to go down to the official? Besides, what good is it if the next official becomes a lower official?"

"Although your magical powers are comparable to Jin Dan, you can only reveal your cultivation in the early stage of foundation building, which can make the other party let down their guard, and more importantly, your illusion is enough to confuse the real with the fake. As for the benefits, it depends on what Taishi wants?" Shangguan Yu said with a side head.

Wang Shuo restrained his original rogue look, frowned and said seriously: "I am not in a hurry to ask for something, I just need the prime minister to help me inquire about the news!"

Shangguan raised his eyebrows: "Let's hear it!"

Wang Shuo immediately arched his hand and said: "It's not a secret, Wang Shuo came to the Heavenly Maiden Kingdom only to find a thousand-year-old antler, which was used to rescue the benefactor in the next place, and now sixty years have passed, if you don't find this thing within thirty years, I'm afraid..."

"Millennial Deer Antlers, Deer Demon Blood Curse?" Shangguan's expression changed slightly, obviously shocked by what Wang Shuo said.

After a while, Shangguan Yu nodded: "This official will try to ask for you!"

After finishing speaking, Shangguan Yu put down a jade slip and put down a token: "This is your Taishi Ling!" Then got up and passed by Wang Shuo and left Qingyuan Hall.

Wang Shuo picked up the jade slip on the table, his divine sense probed into it, and immediately showed a woman's face, Wang Shuo's divine sense immediately withdrew from the jade slip, and his expression changed several times.

"Lian Yu?"

Wang Shuo's brows tightened, and he once again probed his divine sense into the jade slip, compared it with the appearance in his brain, and after being sure that it was exactly the same, Wang Shuo withdrew his divine sense from the jade slip.

"How is it possible, Lian Yu is just an ordinary woman, how could Shangguan Yu want me to kill her? There must be something weird!"

Wang Shuo picked up the jade slip, walked out of the Qingyuan Hall, and rushed towards the outside of the palace.

...

Not long after, Wang Shuo went to the west gate of Tianshu City, that is, where he saw Lian Yu a few days ago.

The guards at the city gate saw Wang Shuo, thinking that Wang Shuo was the one who wanted to pass the customs, and stopped Wang Shuo to check the identity order. Wang Shuo took out the Taishi Order, and the guards took the Taishi Order from Wang Shuo's hand, and asked with a blank face: "What kind of camelina thing is this?"

Wang Shuo was stunned for a moment, and took back Taishi Ling, intending to explain, but it was unnecessary to think about it, so he said angrily: "What's wrong!

He then took out the residency order and handed it to the guard, who took the token: "Residency order, Gentiles?"

"By the city gate, is Miss Lian Yu still there?" Wang Shuo asked the guard. As he was talking, the guards had returned the residence order to Wang Shuo, and he pouted: "In that side gate!"

After Wang Shuo thanked him, he walked towards the side door, and when he entered, he saw Lian Yu meditating cross-legged.

Due to the inconvenience of disturbing, Wang Shuo sat aside and waited quietly. I kept thinking about Shangguan Yu wanting to kill her by myself, and the more I thought about it, the more I didn't understand.

After a long time, Lian Yu opened his eyes and saw Wang Shuo here, revealing a look of surprise: "When will Engong come, why don't you call Lian Yu, Lian Yu is sluggish and looks at Haihan!"

Wang Shuo smiled and shook his head: "It's okay, I'm just going to see you!"

"Look at the slave family?" Lian Yu was stunned for a moment, then raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Why did the benefactor want to come and see the slave family?"

Wang Shuo raised his eyebrows: "Lian Yu, I asked you something, and you answered truthfully!"

Lian Yu showed a puzzled look: "Engong asked!"

"How many years have you been in charge of the inn alone since your father and mother died?"

"For five years, not long after Engong left, he sold the inn and bought the exercises with Engong's spirit stone, and since then he has been specializing in cultivation!"

Wang Shuo nodded and asked seriously, "Then after I left, what kind of strange things have you encountered until now?"

Hearing this, Lian Yu frowned and made a thoughtful look: "Since Engong left, the slave family's cultivation has been smooth, everything is as usual, and there is nothing bizarre. What's the matter, Eun Gong?"

Wang Shuo smiled: "It's okay, just ask! By the way, I thought about your wine, but there is more?"

"Yes, yes, the wine slave family was reluctant to throw away the wine brewed in the small inn, and it has been left in the gourd, and now more than 60 years have passed, and this taste is even more fragrant!"

As he spoke, Lian Yu took out several jars of wine from the gourd and filled the entire table: "Enough for Engong to drink!"

Wang Shuo shook his head and picked up an altar: "No need, one altar is enough!"

Lian Yu brought a wine bowl for Wang Shuo, and Wang Shuo drank a jar of wine into his stomach, which was also spicy tongue, but the taste was more weird.

"Sixty years have passed, and after drinking the wine of Lian Yu, it seems that I have returned to the time when I first entered the Kingdom of Heavenly Maidens!"

After speaking, Wang Shuo got up and said to Lian Yu: "It's not too early, let's leave first!"

Before he went out, Lian Yu chased him out: "Engong..."

Wang Shuo turned around and asked suspiciously, "What's the matter?"

Before the words fell, Lian Yu stuffed a red candle into Wang Shuo's hand, and then ran back to the side door with a blushing face.

Wang Shuo looked at the red candle in his hand, and used his divine sense to probe, but it was just an ordinary red candle, not any magic weapon or artifact.

"What is this for?"

...

After a stick of incense, Wang Shuo went to the gate of the palace.

Wang Shuo took out the Taishi Order, and the guards immediately released Wang Shuo.

When he entered the palace, he saw a beast cart on the main road of the palace speeding from a distance, Wang Shuo immediately got out of the way and subconsciously looked into the car.

However, at this glance, Wang Shuo was stunned, the person in the car was none other than Lian Yu, who he had only seen not long ago.

"That's... Impossible, Lian Yu was clearly in the side gate of the west gate of the Pivot City that day, and it was impossible to reach the palace before me anyway!" Wang Shuo said to himself.

"Could it be... Two Lianyu?"
