Li An nodded slightly, did not say a word, and waved his hand to signal Xiao Liuzi to retreat.

Sending Xiao Liuzi to collect intelligence is just to cultivate his ability and let him understand the operation of various departments of the palace, so that he can act as Ang Lee's right-hand man in the future.

Waiting for Xiao Liuzi to withdraw from Linjiao Garden, the figure flashed behind the screen, Cao Wuji paced out, shook his head, and said with a smile: "This kid has a good understanding, he is also diligent, and he is a good seedling of martial arts." It's a pity that he lacks a bit of cleverness and is not suitable for being a shadow guard. It's better to let him go to the Guanlan Arsenal to study and practice martial arts, and he may be able to take charge of himself in the future. ”

Li An nodded, deeply convinced.

As early as the middle of the night of the third watch, he received the news: the ghost broke into the imperial city at night, and went crazy in the area of the White Emperor Pavilion in Jingyang Palace, and the agitated mana caused the Jingyang Palace, Fengtian Palace, Imperial Study and other buildings to collapse one after another. One hundred and nine people were killed, more than 700 were seriously wounded, and more than 8,000 were slightly wounded.

Jin Wei, the elder of Tianji Palace, and Mr. Taishi Beiguo assisted the Imperial Forest Guard to capture the descendants of the demon gods, but unfortunately one was killed and one was injured. In the end, although he captured the ghost Bu alive, he let the two monsters, Bai Ze and Feiyangu, die.

Emperor Ji Liang was furious, and he issued a holy decree to let the Taishi take action to rectify the forces in the rivers and lakes and eliminate the fanatics. and posthumously crowned Elder Jin as the captain of the ceremony.

This news really shocked Li An, not to mention how Elder Jin could get involved, and how could he be killed by the heart, and his body was in a different place, and he was posthumously awarded the title of military attache of the fifth rank by the emperor after his death?

The position of the Taishi of Yongguo has been vacant for many years, and Li An has always thought that Lingyi Guoshi, who is in the limelight at the moment, has the most hope of being promoted to three levels in a row and becoming the Taishi of the current dynasty. Who knew that the person who was pulled up by Ji Liang was not Ling Yi Guoshi, but this little-known Mr. Beiguo who came out of nowhere.

According to the details sent back by the shadow guard, this Mr. Beiguo's magic weapon is a thin handleless short blade. He was a monster, when he first appeared, he still looked like a middle-aged man, and after a fight with Jixin, he directly turned into a bad old man, with gray hair, a hunched back, and even crutches.

After listening to the description of the shadow guard, Ang Lee's heart suddenly flashed with a name - Northern Lights. According to Mr. Jiazi's recollection: Before the Northern Lights entered the Tianji Palace, the common family reverted to the surname "Beiguo".

The rivers and lakes are going to be eventful from now on.

Li An took a sip of tea, took out a porcelain bottle, and put away the newly baked elixir. Suddenly, he had an idea and said, "Qi Su, take out a jar of flower dew that I buried under the plum tree in the South Garden last year, and I want to mix the incense." ”

Behind the screen, the big girl answered in a low voice, put on a white fox fur cloak, and walked out.

Li An took his hands, walked to the wall and stood still, and waited for the sound of the door closing behind him to sound, and then said softly: "Uncle Shi, don't play like this." ”

The room was quiet for a moment, and suddenly there were a few dry laughs, and Mr. Jiazi crept out of the Taiyi Heavenly Machine Mirror like a thief and slipped towards the door.

Li An shouted: "Stop!" Inadvertently, his voice raised a tone, and there was a faint sense of majesty.

Jiazi couldn't help but put away his smiling lazy look, and explained: "It's the previous owner of Taiyi Tianji Mirror who wants to see you, and I can't help it." ”

Li An's face was pale, and he said: "Turning into Qing Sisi's appearance led me to take the bait, this is also involuntarily?"

Mr. Jiazi scratched his head and sneered: "This is what Xiao Rong meant, he said to lead your own soul out of the body without hurting your body." What do you think Xiao Rong was thinking when he saw you?"

Li An glanced at Jiazi lightly, he knew that this old gentleman was deliberately selling Guanzi, and when he asked, he didn't ask.

Cao Wuji looked at his nose with his eyes and nose at his heart, and he only regarded himself as an antique placed on the Duobao Pavilion, and he couldn't hear or see it.

Mr. Jiazi waited for a while, felt very bored, and said: "Xiao Rong thought to himself: 'This kid is quite reliable, better than Qingyan's hand-shaking shopkeeper, but unfortunately he has no interest in divination, and even feels that it is very boring to know the future in advance. In fact, people are born with the knowledge that they will die one day, and who is depressed and unhappy because of this, and who does not know what to eat?"

Li An was slightly stunned, and a little suddenly enlightened. Yes, as long as you don't worry about yourself, it's not a bad thing to know the future.

At this moment, Tang Yuan jumped up suddenly, tilted his head, and stared out the window. After a while, the little guy excitedly flapped a pair of small wings, grabbed the door and flew out.

Accompanied by the clear and joyful cry of the rice balls, a fluttering sound came from far and near. A white shadow swooped down from the sky and headed straight for Ang Lee.

Cao Wuji was shocked, he subconsciously raised his long whip, and whipped it over with a whip on the ground.

I only heard a crisp crack, like a thunderclap exploded on the ground. The white shadow was struck by the long whip, crooked, and appeared in mid-air, which was actually a small white crane.

No, it's a paper crane.

The paper crane dragged a faint halo, flapped its wings and flew a few feet higher, hovering above Li An's head.

Li An has seen this kind of paper crane, although many Taoist disciples can origami paper cranes to transmit messages, but the paper crane folded out of the heart has smart eyes, short legs, long wings, high flying, and fast speed, which is very special.

Tang Yuan is deaf and clear-sighted, and recognizes the breath on his body, so he was the first to discover the paper crane.

"Senior brother?"

Ang Lee called tentatively.

The paper crane spun around and flew down on Li An's shoulder, a burst of blue light flashed, the bird's beak opened and closed, and said slowly: "Medicine jar, I'm only afraid of bad luck this time, I hid something under your bed, you take it and hand it to Master, as long as that thing doesn't fall into the hands of the Northern Lights, he won't kill me." ”

It's the voice of the heart.

Li An quickly climbed to the attic, and the warm pavilion on the second floor was where he lived.

He walked too fast, and a beauty bottle from Ru Kiln was brought down by the sleeve wind, and rolled down from the desk of the red sandalwood dragon, fell to the ground and cracked into several petals, and the flowers in the vase were scattered to the ground.

Li An walked straight to the bed, lifted the brocade mattress, and walked around the bed, but did not find any secret grids. Cao Wuji lay on the ground, knocking and beating, and tossed for a long time. There was no hidden compartment under the bed, nor was there anything hidden.

Cao Wuji was stained with ash, and while crawling out from under the bed, he snorted: "Ghost Bu won't be playing tricks, right? It's not that we haven't seen the Northern Lights, although that guy is a master, compared to the current ghost Bu, it's still a big difference." ”

Li An shook his head and said, "Senior Brother Xinxin won't joke about this kind of thing. He thought for a moment, grabbed the paper crane, slowly opened it, and unfolded it into a square white paper.

I saw ink on the white paper, which read: "If you want to open the dark compartment under the bed, please pinch Tai Chi with both hands, calm your mind, close your eyes, and read aloud: 'Master is a big fool!''

......

The corners of Li An's mouth twitched, and he did as he said with a smile, the word "stupid" did not fall, and the runes directly below the bed board flashed, and with a snap, a small drawer popped out.

The drawer was dripping with oil wax, and in the amber translucent wax mass was wrapped in a crumpled piece of paper.

I'm afraid that it will be related to the creation of the jade dish, Li An frowned slightly, wrapped the oil wax ball with a cloth, and put the whole piece into the Hongmeng realm.

He was about to close the drawer, when he suddenly found two lines of small words on the side of the drawer - "Entering the palace in the early morning, I saw bamboo and branches in the distance, and the wind sent poplars and plum flowers, calling for peace." ”

"See a pig from afar?"

Collect this guy, just make fun of him if he has nothing to do. Li An scolded with a smile and said, "Brother Cao, follow me to see Master." ”

The room was silent, and no one answered him.

The curtains moved silently, and there seemed to be a cool breeze blowing through the back of Ang Lee's neck, with a strange touch of wet, cold, sticky, greasy. He couldn't help but shrink his neck, and at a glance, he saw a black shadow reflected on the slightly raised veil.
