Chapter 20: Hot Tips
"Brother Xiaodao!"
Gongsun Tuo bowed again as he spoke, his eyes were a little red.
In fact, Li Changan did not bear it in his heart.
But Lao Guanhai is now clearly an opportunity to rush to the stage, and his eyes are already red, and he is bent on finding the snake demon. At this time, no matter who said anything, it was useless, and it was impossible for him to settle down and carefully investigate the real culprit who slaughtered the Gongsun family.
Say that he is selfish and neglects his official duties? Heh, he is a person from the mountain gate who is dedicated to cultivation, and the worldly royal power may not be taken into account, let alone such a trivial matter.
At this time, the only person who can speak well is Li Changan, who can help him 'hang' the snake.
After weighing left and right, Li Changan had an idea.
"I'll write a letter, you take it to Laoshou to see. In black and white, I'll put a thumbprint on it, so it's always okay. ”
Gongsun Tuo frowned, and was about to say a few words, when he heard the sound of hurried footsteps at the stairs.
It is Laoguan Hai.
The number of big man's salutes was comprehensive, and regardless of Gongsun Tuo, who was still standing on the side with a confused face, he bowed his hand and called, "Little uncle." ”
Li Changan has one head and two big, and he said in his heart that these two goods will not be negotiated. One after the other, one with a red face and one with a white face, dragged themselves into this troubled water.
"Haha," he chuckled dryly, "the master's nephew is too polite. ”
"Uncle Shi is not here?" Lao Guanhai looked left and right, the door of the wing room was wide open, and there was no one inside.
Lu Wuxiang condensed his qi and did not reveal his true breath, no one could find him by following his breath, not to mention that Lao Guanhai's cultivation could sense the whereabouts of his uncle and ancestor.
"Oh, Master... Went out for a walk. ”
Laoguan Haihu glanced at Li Changan's shoulder suspiciously, and saw that under the bench behind him, there was a little fat fox lying on his stomach with a snow-white body without a single miscellaneous hair.
Grass Spirit! Or forget the worry grass! Transformed into wings, and there are at least three grades of spirit level.
This is a rare spiritual object that refines the Five-Turn Condensing Yuan Pill!
Li Changan felt that the big man's eyes should have seen Ah Zi, and his eyes were strange, so he was a little vigilant in his heart, kept a smile on his face, and asked, "Something?"
Lao Guanhai immediately retracted his gaze, nodded at Gongsun Tuo, and said, "According to what Gongsun Gongzi said, that snake demon has something in the little uncle, but is there such a thing?"
Li Changan didn't say a word, and took out the bag from his sleeve pocket.
Lao Guanhai took it and flipped it over, opened the bag and took out one of the yellow pieces of paper with runes, looked left and right, and frowned.
"Gongsun Gongzi, you said that the snake demon claimed to have left important things next to the rockery and was picked up by you. What do you mean, but this thing?"
"Exactly. Gongsun Tuo said: "The snake demon said that it fell on what golden willow leaves are next to my rockery." All I found there was this thing, and nothing else.
But this is the talisman that my father asked for from the real person of the Nine Palaces, what does it have to do with that snake demon?
Also, Lao Shouyu, Brother Xiaodao can prove that what I saw and heard that night was not an illusion caused by the demon magic of the snake demon. ”
Gongsun Tuo stared at Li Changan with blank eyes.
"This thing... I can indeed testify on behalf of Gongsun Gongzi. ”
Damn Murphy's Law, it's really annoying.
That's it, the person has already found the door, and it is useless to avoid it, Li Changan simply asked: "Lao Shi nephew, are you sure that the real murderer is the snake demon?!"
"Don't you think Uncle Xiao thinks so?"
A good kick.
I never thought that this big man with thick eyebrows and big eyes would still have this hand, a little slippery...
"I'm not a trapper, I don't think it doesn't matter. However, the human world is also a practice. Although the heart of the Tao is strong, we should also consider the feelings of others.
It is easy to get rid of the resentment of those who died in vain, but if the truth is buried, where is the justice of heaven?"
As soon as Li Changan finished speaking, he regretted it a little in his heart.
If you don't mix the causal chance of these two goods, you shouldn't say half a word more.
This broken mouth...
Lao Guanhai's burly figure shook slightly, and he didn't know what he thought, and his eyes when he looked at Li Changan began to change slightly.
"It will take three days for the documents to be compiled, closed and reported.
If I can capture the snake demon alive within three days, I will have my own way to check its spiritual sense. If it wasn't the snake demon's doing, I would have arrested the culprit.
But if there is no trace of the snake demon within three days, then there is nothing that can be done to catch the first arrest. ”
In fact, Lao Guanhai is not unwilling to enforce the law, and he is also bored in his heart.
On the night of the murder, he hurried to Gongsun Mansion, feeling that the monster was still there, and without saying a word, he sacrificed the magic weapon and used the magic circle.
Xu was almost trapped by his golden bell jar, and the snake demon learned to be smart. On the night of the abduction of Gongsun Tuo, it set up a barrier to cover up the aura around the river and the cemetery.
If it weren't for Li Changan's water escape all the way and some fur spells, Lao Guanhai would not have found it so quickly.
To be honest, he was a little confused at the time.
Because the snake demon had set up an enchantment in advance, he didn't expect that chasing after him would encounter the snake demon and reveal his true body.
Unexpectedly, the snake demon did not entangle with him, put aside a cruel word, and escaped directly through the thick fog.
And, when the snake demon disappears, the posture is a little strange. The huge snake's tail hung from the inside, as if it had been wounded and broken from the inside.
He thought he was wrong. So, yesterday I spent a day searching the river and the cemetery.
As a result, not only a three-zhang-long drag mark was found that was suspected to be formed by a snake's tail mopping the ground, but also some strange white fragments.
Uses the reduction technique that is only useful for items, although it can only maintain two breaths, but in his experience of catching no less than ten snake demons within three grades, this...
Definitely a snake tooth.
With the remaining demonic power on the fragment of this half-human-tall snake tooth, combined with the state that the snake scales of its whole body have been cultivated to the spiritual realm, and the length of more than thirty meters, Lao Guanhai has a very accurate judgment.
This snake demon has reached the perfection of the four grades, and it is still a poisonous and rare species!
Laoguan Haidao was almost crooked.
If you say anything big, and 'let this evil beast run away again', if people turn back, it will be him who will run.
The most incomprehensible thing is, how did the teeth of these four-grade snake demons break, and how did the tail hurt?
Gongsun Tuo said that when he saw the big snake with its bloody mouth wide open and rushed towards him and Brother Xiaodao, he fainted. What happened next, he had absolutely no idea.
Li Changan said that he saw the big snake open... Then, there is no then. When I came to my senses, I had already fallen on the edge of the river.
That's weird.
There are not many monks in Linjiang Mansion who specialize in demon subduation, and the highest cultivation is a mid-level level, barely able to do second-grade demons. Against the big snake, I am afraid that I can't stand a mouthful of venom, so I have to turn into a pot of soy tofu soup on the spot.
Thinking about it, the only one who has this ability and can help in time is Shi Shuzu.
However, this is not possible. If it was really Uncle Shi's ancestor who was here, how could he not feel a trace of immortal power?
Gathering Qi and condensing the yuan without showing his breath, he fought hand-to-hand with his bare hands? Uncle Shi is so old, is it still a martial arts fight? No, can't it.
Who did it? Who is the Taoist friend who does good deeds without leaving a name...
pondering and pondering, Lao Guanhai scratched his scalp all night and didn't come up with a single hair.
However, after having a specific understanding of the snake demon, he also made adjustments to his bottom-out plan.
Originally, he wanted to use the reason of rushing to the stairs to get close to Lu Wuxiang's master and apprentice and find out the whereabouts of Master Venerable Miaomu Immortal.
For now, rush to the stairs, forget it.
This is going to be changed to a monster who has just entered the third grade, and there is a master and uncle who sweeps the formation, and he still has a little hope.
But these four products are complete...
It's too much.
It is not easy to practice, but cultivate and cherish.
If you miss this opportunity, just miss it. How can you say that there are still more than a hundred years to live, wait, don't be in a hurry to die.
But if there is no such excuse, Shi Shuzu takes Li Changan, a money-greedy apprentice, and leaves, he can't follow in vain.
Therefore, the reason for rushing to the ladder has to be borrowed, but it is not true. Once the snake demon is fished, you have to let Uncle Shi take action personally.
It's good, Gongsun Tuo is eager to find out the real culprit, Lu Wuxiang is the most charitable, and the ready-made bitter meat plan is not in vain.
Although Li Changan didn't know what Lao Guanhai was fighting in his heart, he couldn't hear this crazy hint.
It means that whether the bloody case of Gongsun Tuo's family can be avenged depends on whether he is willing to cooperate.
"Well, when it comes to this, of course I, little uncle..."
Lao Guanhai and Gongsun Tuo's eyes were blazing, full of a certain hopeful light, and they threw themselves at Li Changan.
"Of course, I wish you a victorious start, and you're ready to get it.
Hurry up, the thing is given to you, take it and lure the snake out of the hole. Snakes and rats are in a nest and a pot, it's up to you. Gogogo...”
Laoguanhai .........
Gongsun Tuo.........
What does it mean to be enough?
The two looked at each other blankly, and their emotions were a little unconnected.
Lao Guanhai looked down at the bag in his hand again, rubbed it, and didn't know what to say for a while to pick up the words of this little uncle.
"The snake demon wants this bag. Whoever the bag is on, the snake demon will look for. Master nephew, don't worry, the snake you want will arrive soon.
Gongsun Gongzi, you just wait for Lao's first catch good news, and when he takes the snake and rat's nest, everything will be revealed.
Go, go, go, get moving..."
Li Changan said as he pushed the backs of the two and pushed them to the stairs.
"No, Uncle Junior, that... Did Uncle Zu say when his old man would come back?" Lao Guanhai came to his senses and turned around and asked.
"I don't know, Master didn't say. ”
"Ah?!" Lao Guanhai's bronzed face stiffened.
"Oh yes," Li Changan suddenly stopped and continued to push, and said with a slightly serious expression: "Master nephew, can I have a work injury?"
Yesterday, I went to Qingyutang, and Lang Zhong said that the wound on my arm was too big, and one piece of medicine was not enough, so I caught three posts..."
"Brother Xiaodao is injured?!!" Gongsun Tuo was shocked and ashamed.
He scolded himself in his heart for being dizzy, only caring about his own affairs, but forgetting that the little Taoist priest was reluctant to chase the mouse spirit all the way in order to save him. Come to think of it, he must have been injured by the snake demon.
Lao Guanhai immediately took out a whole silver ingot from his sleeve pocket, "Yesterday was busy with official business, but Guanhai put this matter aside, and Uncle Xiao took care of it." ”
Without blinking an eye, the silver came into Li Changan's hand, and he smiled and said, "It's okay, it's okay."
By the way, is there a shop selling Taoist robes nearby? I just had two clothes and ripped one of them, and this one body was not enough to wear. ”
"There are no shops that specialize in Taoist robes, but they can be made on demand. Gongsun Tuo hurriedly said: "Brother Xiaodao, you wait at the inn for a while, I will arrange a seammy to come to the door to tailor it for you." ”
"Not really, I can find it myself. The two of them walked slowly, and Chang'an was not far away. ”
After that, Li Changan bowed his hand to the two of them in a manner, which was regarded as a send-off gift. After going down the mountain for two days, I didn't learn anything else, and I understood these unspeakable etiquette.
Gongsun Tuo didn't bother anymore, turned around, and hurriedly went downstairs and left the inn.
As for Lao Guanhai, his brain is a little dizzy.
I was wondering, but now I'm even more confused.
"What was I supposed to do? Why is there no inexplicable lack of ingots and silver? Hey, it's just money, I don't care." ‘
Out of the inn, Lao Guanhai walked all the way, looking at the bag embroidered with gossip in his hand from time to time.
Suddenly, there was a feeling of holding a thunder flint.
It's hot......
