Chapter 63 Wutong Garden
The night became darker and the entire Tailing Southwest Square became lively. For Wutongyuan, this was the beginning of the day.
The black night, the red lanterns turned into large black and red blocks, which looked like dried blood.
Qi Xuansu went to Nancheng not only for a detour, but also changed her clothes. At this time, Qi Xuansu was only looking at her clothes, which was not much different from these guests who came to the courtyard.
No matter what the real family background is, people in the Taoist sect still have to be simple on the surface, which is not too flamboyant and gorgeous. However, those who can come to a first-class courtyard like Wutongyuan are either rich or noble, so they naturally cannot dress simply. Qi Xuansu's outfit costs him 93 full money. Rounding it all means 100 money, which makes his already poor family background even worse. With the premise that all official expenses are reimbursed, there are only 800 money left.
However, Qi Xuansu felt that as long as he could settle this grudge, not to mention a hundred peaceful money, even a thousand peaceful money was worth. As for ten thousand peaceful money, then forget it, Qi Xuansu felt that Monk Yanxiu was not worth so much money.
Qi Xuansu originally wanted to buy a "Longjing Jiajiu" to prepare for emergencies. However, considering that the goal is too big and if it is not handled properly, people found traces of "Longjing Jiajiu" from Yanxiu's body. He also found out that he had just bought "Longjing Jiajiu" recently, so he was undoubtedly not asking for help, so he gave up.
Qi Xuansu hid in the dark for a moment, took out the "White Fox Face" mask that had not been used for a long time from the Sumeru object and covered her face.
In fact, the safest way is that Qi Xuansu put on a dress in women's clothing and then used a "white fox-faced" mask. It cannot be said that it is seamless, but it is the safest way. It not only unexpectedly made Monk Yanxiu unexpected, but also greatly dispelled suspicion and misled others when tracing afterwards. However, Qi Xuansu is not an assassin who does everything he can. He is also a conservative person at the root, so he rejected this safest way, settled for the second best, and pretended to be an old man.
Although the old man's face once appeared in Jiangling Mansion, with the Yuan family being destroyed, only General Feng, who was insiders, was left with the "Tianting Court". Not to mention that General Feng had only seen the old man's face and did not know Qi Xuansu's identity. Even if he knew, the words of a demon from a secret society were not worthy of relying on.
As for the rest, Zhang Yuelu and Pei Xiaolou are all their own people.
Qi Xuansu was in a dark alley without lights at this time. The ordinary houses on both sides of the alley also belonged to Wutongyuan's property. Some servants in the courtyard lived here, mainly because they were close to the courtyard and had easy access. At this time, they all went to work, so there was naturally no one here.
Not long after, three bright sky lanterns slowly rose, from right to left, the first sky lantern was written with the word "Wu" and the second sky lantern was written with the word "Su" on it.
The word "Tong" is written on the third sky lantern. Because the sky lantern has characters on all sides, no matter which direction you look from, you can see clearly.
After Qi Xuansu confirmed that it was correct, he left the alley where he was hiding and walked towards Wutong Garden.
Wutong Garden covers a huge area. Although it cannot compare to the Jade Palace, which occupies a yard, it is also comparable to a mansion of a marquis. It covers an area of more than 100 acres, so there are multiple entrances and exits. There is no need to go through the main entrance. The portal chosen by Qi Xuansu is relatively remote and leads directly to each individual courtyard. Only guests who have their pink hair combed in Wutong Garden often walk through this door, so there is no one seen for a long time.
The turtle slave guarding the door saw Qi Xuansu walking alone and hurriedly came forward. He felt that the old man was about to ask, and he happened to meet Qi Xuansu's gaze.
For a moment, the turtle slave's eyes were dull and he fell into a state of confusion in a trance.
This is Wu Zhu's magical "disturbance of the gods". It can influence others' minds, be used to charm and control others, and also be used to soothe emotions. Wu Luo is extremely good at this kind of magical things. At its peak, he can manipulate millions of people. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the first person in this way.
Because it is magical, there is no need to practice deliberately. When the realm reaches its level, it will naturally be able to master it.
As for why Wu Zhu has such magical powers, it is actually reasonable. If you want to attract believers, it is not enough to rely on words to draw cakes or temptations. It is not a big deal to show miracles. After all, other gods can also call the wind and rain. Why should I believe you? So Wu Zhu also needs to use some semi-coercive means.
If the formation is blessed, it can "bewitch" believers on a large scale. However, just like the alchemist who does something wrong when he enters his dream, the Taoist sect strictly prohibits such behaviors, and once discovered, it will be severely punished.
Qi Xuansu ordered: "You saw nothing, and no one was in and out during this period. Then you would wake up after ten breaths, remember nothing, and everything was as usual."
"Yes, I...what... I didn't see..." The turtle slave slowly repeated Qi Xuansu's words like a puppet.
Qi Xuansu walked straight into this portal.
After ten breaths, the turtle slave woke up and looked around, and there was no one, just as usual.
The Turtle Slave yawned.
It was Qi Xuansu's first time to come to Wutong Garden. He was not familiar with the terrain, but this would not hurt him, he just kept looking at it.
Just confirm the direction of the sky lantern with the word "Tong" above, then walk straight and turn over when you encounter a wall. With his skills, it is not difficult to avoid being discovered. If it really doesn't work, you can also use "chaotic spirit" to open the way.
This is the beginning of Hai, which is the twenty-one time of Western time.
It was the most lively time of the courtyard.
Even though this area is a relatively secluded area in Wutong Garden, you can still hear the sound of silk bamboo and the laughter of men and women. Some impatient guests have even begun to get to the point. The wisps, discontinuous sounds are obviously not loud, but they are extremely permeable and drill into people's ears.
Qi Xuansu was unmoved and had no distraction.
When he was doing his business, he was always very focused and not disturbed by external things. This is also the key to his survival in the cruel world.
At the first moment of the lunar month of the lunar month, Qi Xuansu had already arrived outside the courtyard where Monk Yanxiu lived. Looking up, the sky lantern with the word "Tong" was almost hanging high above his head, and he needed to look up.
Although Li Qingnu had the control of Wutong Garden, he could not have too many traces, so he could only buy Qi Xuansu for half an hour.
Qi Xuansu waved his hand and two invisible sword energy shot out one after another. The first sword energy cut off the colorful rope used to fix the sky lantern, and the second sword energy shot down the sky lantern.
The sky lantern does not fall vertically, but floats like a meteor and falls to other yards in the distance.
Although Qi Xuansu did not set a specific signal with Li Qingnu in advance because of the unknown specific situation, and could not let him set off a firework, it was too conspicuous, but he believed that Li Qingnu, who was already prepared, would definitely understand, because this was the word "Tung" sky lantern mentioned by Li Qingnu.
Many people saw this scene and rushed towards the land where the sky lantern fell.
After all, most of the buildings here are made of wooden buildings, which can easily cause fires.
Qi Xuansu believed that Li Qingnu would be "alarmed" and would come to the scene in person. Then she could send people to find out the reason legitimately and reasonably, and then intentionally or unintentionally drain the residence of Monk Yanxiu, leaving time for Qi Xuansu.
After seeing the sky lantern landing, Qi Xuansu walked slowly towards the courtyard gate.
There are still some servants and maids in the yard. After all, it is unrealistic to remove all the people and easily arouse Yanxiu's suspicion.
Qi Xuansu’s response was to use the “chaotic spirit” to drive them away, and at the same time, they could remember nothing afterwards.
Now Qi Xuansu feels more and more, the day after tomorrow
The banished immortal is much more powerful than the innate banished immortal in the celestial stage. At least Zhang Yuelu is not as magical as this, so he can only learn it, and he doesn't have to learn it at all.
Of course, if Zhang Yuelu has enough energy, the upper limit will be higher, because the biggest advantage of the exiled immortal is that the sea is the sea and the rivers are tolerant and great. No matter what kind of magical powers and techniques are passed down, they can learn them quickly, and there are no conflicts or hidden dangers. After all, the true essence can transform all things with Taiji, and the acquired exiled immortal returns to the original world with thousands of machines, one is extremely complex and the other is extremely simple.
In short, the innate exiled immortal is a bit like the method of the Xuanmen’s righteous way, which is progressing step by step and full of strength. The acquired exiled immortal is a bit like the method of the side and left-handed way, with a sword taking a detachment and exerting force in the early stage.
Each has its own advantages and disadvantages, but the same ends.
As soon as Qi Xuansu walked to the door of the bedroom, he heard a voice coming from inside: "Who is it?"
It was Yanxiu's bald voice that only a year later, Qi Xuansu remembered it clearly.
Because the "White Fox Face" mask can also change the voice, Qi Xuansu is not afraid of revealing his identity and directly said: "An old friend visits."
After the words came to an end, the two doors opened by themselves. The warmth in the house was warm and the red candles were burning.
A screen opposite the door, and Yanxiu's voice came from behind: "The little monk doesn't seem to know you."
Qi Xuansu's lips curled up: "The Zen master is really a noble man who forgets things. I would like to remind the noble man, Xiao Qin King, Xie Qiuniang, Hua Jianyi."
This was what Li Qingnu told him. It is said that these three people had intercepted and killed Monk Yanxiu, but they still let Yanxiu run away.
Yan Xiu was silent for a moment, then his voice became a little colder: "Qingpinghui."
Qi Xuansu said: "It seems that the noble man remembered it. He asked you to run away last time and you dared to show up. He is so brave. He just doesn't take us Qingping seriously?"
The screen between the two people shattered shattered.
I saw a beautiful big bed with two women on it, with their black hair and half-dispersed clothes and white flowers. It was so big that the spring scenery was so big.
In the middle of this spring, Monk Yanxiu sat cross-legged, allowing two beauties to lie on her body, showing a holy and compassionate look on her face.
"You are really in dispersed and you have chased us all the way here." Monk Yanxiu was not panicked, "But this is the imperial capital, and you mice are invisible."
