Chapter Seventy-Seven: Stratagem
In the main hall of the General's Mansion, General Shu had a gloomy face and did not say a word. The sloppy Taoist sat on the left, followed by the saliva old man and the natural charmer. And Lei Tianluo sat in the position where he was supposed to be a wine and meat monk, and below sat the Fu Yuan who had woken up, and Shu Zhitang, who had already followed. Fanzheng had just woken up and was still recuperating in a secluded courtyard.
Lei Tianluo broke the silence and said, "Brother is not mistaken, it is indeed the eldest young master who is harmed by cultivators?"
The sloppy Taoist nodded, and said in a deep voice: "If it weren't for the cultivator, the eldest young master wouldn't be killed with one blow, and he wouldn't have had time to resist." ”
Lei Tianluo arched his hand and said: "General, I have a sentence, I don't know whether to say it or not." ”
General Shu said: "Speak." ”
Lei Tianluo said: "Does the general ever know the origin of the wine and meat monk?"
General Shu said: "He once told me privately that he was an outcast of Jinguang Temple, and now he is a loose cultivator. ”
Lei Tianluo said: "Yes, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is an outcast of Jinguang Temple." But his true identity is not a monk of wine and meat, but a monk of killing. General Shu, you must have heard of this name, right?"
General Shu suddenly changed color and said, "Kill the monk......?" Brother Lei, wasn't he killed by the combined efforts of the cultivation world?"
Lei Tianluo said: "How did he escape from Jinguang Temple, I don't know, in short, he has a grudge against Jinguang Temple, this can't be wrong." To tell you the truth, some time ago, my senior brother Fanzheng was investigating him, but he was poisoned. At that time, before my brother fell into a coma, he warned me to be careful about killing monks. Now that Xiaoyaozi and I have joined forces to detoxify my senior brother, my senior brother has personally proved that the monk who drinks wine and meat is undoubtedly a monk who kills life. ”
General Shu frowned and said, "Brother Lei means that he is related to tonight's assassins?"
Lei Tianluo said: "Not bad. As soon as my brother and I entered the General's Mansion, we were shocked by his origins, so we kept investigating him. Maybe he was afraid that if his identity was exposed, he would no longer be able to gain a foothold in the General's Mansion. Because the Great Zhou Dynasty also surrounded and suppressed him at the beginning, didn't he? So he first poisoned my senior brother, and then ......"
The sloppy Taoist hurriedly spoke, and said: "What Brother Lei means is that if he can't gain a foothold in the General's Mansion, then there will definitely be no place to stand in the Great Zhou Dynasty." So he's going to join the rebels?"
"Not bad!" Lei Tianluo gave the sloppy Taoist an appreciative look, "If he wants to defect to the rebels, he must have a letter of surrender." Otherwise, how could the rebels believe that he really went to take refuge and not a spy sent by the general? Therefore, it would be the best way to lead someone to assassinate the eldest young master tonight. Otherwise, why did he come to the secluded courtyard himself when others assassinated the eldest young master, and blocked his biggest opponent, that is, us? Because as soon as I find out that something is wrong, I will definitely go to him for trouble, and his assassination plan will also be in vain. ”
The sloppy Taoist suddenly realized: "No wonder you have always asked me to be careful of the subordinates of the wine and meat monk, it turns out that Brother Lei has already seen through his details!"
General Shu slapped his palm on the chair and shouted, "What a killing monk! If I catch you, I will definitely break your body into ten thousand pieces!"
Lei Tianluo shook his head and said, "I'm afraid he has gone to the rebels by now to ask for merit and reward." It's just that I don't know if he is Sun Wei's person or a person from Yaksha. ”
General Shu snorted coldly and said, "No matter who he is, don't want to be free anymore!" As he spoke, he looked at the sloppy Taoist and Lei Tianluo.
The sloppy Taoist smiled, knowing that it was time to raise soldiers for a thousand days and use them for a while, and it was time for them to take action. opened his mouth and said: "General Shu, don't worry, Brother Lei and I will definitely find his location, and give the eldest young master justice!"
Lei Tianluo said: "Yes, please rest assured General Shu." However, as far as I know, one of the subordinates of the killing monk escaped and did not know where he went, so I asked General Shu to be more careful. ”
General Shu laughed and said, "Is that the woman with a scar on her face?" I'm afraid that she won't appear, if she dares to appear, I will definitely want her to live rather than die!"
Several people discussed for a while, and finally decided that Lei Tianluo would investigate the Yaksha people, and the sloppy Taoist people would investigate Sun Wei's side. We must find out the killing monk before we stop. Of course, Lei Tianluo knew that the killing monk had been wiped out and could not be found again. He went to investigate Yaksha, just to find a better excuse for his own negotiations.
Out of the General's Mansion, before Lei Tianluo could speak, the sloppy Taoist flattered and said: "Brother Lei, in the General's Mansion in the future, it will be the world of the two of us." In the future, please take care of my brother. ”
Lei Tianluo said to the snake: "How dare you, I still want my brother to take care of me." ”
The sloppy Taoist hurriedly waved his hand: "Brother Lei, you're welcome, I'm still very interested in your elixir." Brother, when will you refine another pill for me?"
Lei Tianluo smiled: "You can send the materials tomorrow morning, and then let someone pick up the things in the evening." But man, I'm going to need some other materials this time. ”
......
Back in the room, Fanzheng had already woken up, but his body was still a little weak.
Lei Tianluo carefully checked Fanzheng's condition, and finally calmed down completely, and said, "No problem." ”
Fan Zheng clasped his hands together and said, "Senior Brother Lei is really powerful, and I can be saved by poison and heart." It seems that it is a great honor for me to invite Senior Brother Lei to accompany me on this trip. ”
Lei Tianluo waved his hand and said, "Senior brother, don't see the outside, this is all my business." Now that we have all come this far, we should support each other. ”
Fan Zheng nodded, looked at Lei Tianluo again, and said suspiciously: "Senior brother, I see that your face is ruddy and your breath is stable, is it possible that your skills have improved again?"
Lei Tianluo nodded and said, "I just crossed the realm of life and death and arrived at the fifth grade. ”
Before Fan Zheng could react, Fu Yuan had already hugged Lei Tianluo's arm and shouted: "Senior brother, you are a liar, you must have hidden some kind of pill for your own use! Hurry up, how long have you not prepared the pill for me? Don't hide it, take it out quickly!"
Fan Zheng was so troubled by Fu Yuan, and he also looked at Lei Tianluo with bright eyes, and said, "Could it be that the junior brother has already refined the three-grade elixir?" Congratulations, junior brother, you are a ......."
Lei Tianluo hurriedly shook his head and said, "I misunderstood, I am advancing by leaps and bounds this time, or because of the cold in my body." ”
Fu Yan said: "I won't believe anything you say, quickly, hand over the pill." ”
Fan Zheng shook his head violently and said, "Senior Brother Lei, when I meet you again in the Quanqing Taoist Temple, you are still not in the stream. It's only been a long time since you entered the General's Mansion, and you've already entered the five-rank realm. If I only said that there was a cold to help, I would not believe it anyway. However, Senior Brother Fuyuan, since Senior Brother Lei doesn't say the reason, I'm afraid he also has his difficulties, so let's stop asking. ”
Fu Yan pouted and said, "Okay, but senior brother, you really haven't given me the pill for a long time to help me practice." ”
Lei Tianluo said: "Now let's stay under someone else's roof, where do I have so many materials, don't make trouble with you." By the way, have you checked carefully? Nothing can be found anywhere?"
Fu Yuan nodded and said, "Yes, he is like the world has evaporated." I don't know where this fool can go, now that the army is in chaos, if something happens to him, I'm afraid his aunt won't spare us. ”
Lei Tianluo just reassured Fu Yuan that nothing would happen. But he didn't say anything about pretending to be stupid. If you want to pretend to be crazy and stupid, and paste mud on your face all day long, there must be some unknown and even frightening secret. It's better not to hype it up until you figure it out.
After a while, Lei Tianluo said again: "Senior brother, how much do you know about the Bounty Building?"
Fan Zheng frowned and said: "Bounty Building, a group of guys who do everything for money and dare to do anything, although they are not well-known in the cultivation world, they are absolutely second to none in the mortal world. It can be said that the Bounty House is the most influential force in the world. ”
Lei Tianluo said: "If you want to buy them, how many silver taels do you have to spend?"
Fan Zheng was surprised: "Buying them, junior brother, aren't you crazy? These guys who recognize money but don't recognize people are like hungry wolves, and they will never be fed." ”
Lei Tianluo sighed secretly and said, "Now there is a master of the Bounty Building who has set his sights on us, called Suo. ”
Fan Zheng was surprised and said, "Asking for your life, one of the Eight Living Hell Kings, this is not easy to do. ”
"Isn't Senior Brother his opponent?"
Fan Zheng shook his head and said, "If there is a head-to-head duel, I will definitely be able to subdue him." But junior brother, you don't know, there is a light skill in the Bounty Building, which is called stepping on the snow without a trace. If they want to run, no one will be able to chase them unless you have more than three grades. ”
Lei Tianluo frowned and said, "Where is this living Hades, obviously a difficult little ghost." Let's just leave him alone, senior brother, where are you hiding that Qi Gathering Orb?. ”
