Simulated Immortal Cultivation: Beginning with Changchun's Immortality

Chapter 87
At noon, the door of Gao's house was closed tightly.

Xu Xiuyuan knocked on the door several times before a boy in gray came out.

"The master is studying behind closed doors today, and he doesn't see any guests. You two should go back."

After all, the boy made a gesture to close the door again.

No matter what Xu Xiuyuan said, he was also a respectable person with a radius of hundreds of miles in Shuofang City. When he was treated so lightly, the Taoist boy who accompanied him immediately stepped forward to argue, but he was stopped by the old Taoist hand.

He made a look at Li Yan, but the old man walked back without saying a word.

Only when he walked to a corner where Gao's servant boy could not see, did he solemnly explain to Li Yan why he did this.

"Daoist Shenxuan, I have visited the Gao family twice before, but I have never seen this person."

Li Yan's heart shuddered for no reason, and he naturally heard Xu Xiuyuan's implication.

It was only a week ago that the old Taoist went to Gao's house to perform exercises. In just one week, even the concierge at the door had changed, and even a fool could see something abnormal.

Gao's family is not the kind of rich and powerful family who settles in the city, at best they are at the level of a rich man in the countryside, and there are only five or six servants in the family including Zhuang Dingdingtian.

This was Gao Minghan's re-employment after he made a sudden windfall, and the longest he worked was less than a month.

However, after a few days, another batch of servant boys from the Gao family changed. If there was nothing wrong with it, they really treated the two Taoists as fools.

And what Li Yan said next just confirmed this point.

"Fellow Daoist Qingxu, if you're not mistaken, there's a faint blackness between the brows of that little boy. It seems that the Gao family really has a lot of problems!"

Withdrawing the true energy from his eyes, Li Yan also frowned.

"But now the master's family refuses to see guests, you and I are clever women who can't cook without rice."

"Who said that entering a house requires permission from the owner?"

However, Xu Xiuyuan showed a narrow smile, Fuchen pointed at the high wall not far away, and the meaning behind the words was self-evident.

"Extremely, extremely! Fellow Daoist Qingxu awakened the dreamer!"

There is no mistake, the two of us, one is a true cultivator of the fourth level of energy refining, and the other is a martial artist who has mastered the mystery of martial arts. If he secretly visits a local rich man's house, he only needs to have hands.

The two looked at each other, and found an excuse to drive Dao Tong back to accompany the groom, then soared into the air, and each showed their abilities to enter Gao's house.

As soon as he entered Gao's house, Li Yan couldn't help covering his nose.

"Yuck~"

Xu Xiuyuan next to him was used to being pampered, and he looked even more embarrassed, and almost vomited directly.

Monks nourish their bodies with true qi, and their five senses are much sharper than ordinary people.

Therefore, both of them smelled the strong fishy smell in the courtyard immediately.

Shielding the nose hole made him feel better. Li Yan finally understood the reason why Gao Minghan thanked guests behind closed doors.

It's just that the fishy smell can be clearly smelled from the outer wall far away from the atrium, but if someone visits the door, it's really a problem if they don't feel suspicious!

"I came here that day, but it didn't have such a strong smell."

Seeing Li Yan's searching gaze, the old Taoist closed his nose in a learned way, and then he took a breath and explained.

"Fellow Daoist Shenxuan, be careful later!"

Obviously, the old man also realized that this trip was not so easy.

……

The Gao family is not big, and under the leadership of Xu Xiuyuan, the two soon came to the inner courtyard.

Many of the pavilions and courtyards built by the great-grandfather have now peeled off the original paint, and the walls newly painted with chalk have a fishy smell, which smells weird and disgusting.

There is a choking stench between the sinuses, and the warm sun at noon shines on the courtyard, but it does not make people feel warm.

As if walking in a damp and gloomy ice cellar, every time Li Yan took a step, he felt heart palpitations in all directions, as if a monster was lurking in the shadow of the corner, ready to devour him at all times.

"Fellow Daoist Shenxuan, the front is where I practiced that day. If the old man remembers correctly, the grotesque statue of He Bo should also be placed there."

Hearing this, Li Yan raised his head, and what he saw was a simple and solemn ancestral hall.

"Anyone in there?"

Seeing the Taoist beside him standing still, Xu Xiuyuan subconsciously asked in a deep voice.

"There is still a lock on the door. I think there should be no one in the house. I just watched the technique of Qi from below. There seems to be something dangerous in it."

Hearing that no one was there, Xu Xiuyuan breathed a sigh of relief.

"The old man took a rough look at the statue of He Bo, and it was a bit strange."

It's all here, I can't just walk around the door and go back home in despair.

After calming down the messy thoughts in Ding's mind, the old Taoist made a gesture of invitation to Li Yan, and then stretched out his finger to lightly tap the big lock on the door.

With a bang, the copper lock fell from the door by itself, which opened Li Yan's eyes.

Seeing that he was holding the opponent down with his hand, the corner of the old Taoist's mouth curled up slightly, and he pushed open the gate of the ancestral hall with a creak.

Li Yan just glanced at it, and immediately froze in place.

It has a foot-wide dorsal fin, a bloated fish body covered with fine net-like snake scales, and six tentacles full of suckers wrapping a large mouth with sharp teeth.

The ferocious beast seemed to come alive and rushed towards Li Yan.

However, the reason why Li Yan was stunned was not He Bo's weird and terrifying appearance, but the appearance of this carp that he had seen in his previous visualization. Except for the position of the six-tailed tentacles, the rest of the details seemed to be in the same mold. As if drawn out.

Li Yan slowly stepped into the ancestral hall. The furnishings in the house were very simple. Apart from the tablets of the ancestors of the Gao family, there was only a simple incense burner, an incense table, a futon, and some offering incense.

The two of them took another two steps inside and came to He Bo.

He Bo's fine and sharp teeth, especially dark brown blood stains can be seen, like a ferocious beast drinking blood, the details are vividly outlined.

No, no, this is not a master craftsman's work!
Li Yan unblocked the nostrils, and sniffed carefully. Sure enough, under the rotten fishy smell, there was also a faint sweet smell.

Suddenly, as if thinking of something, Li Yan quickly pulled out the talisman sword from behind, and with one sword, split the heavy lock of the cabinet door under the incense table.

What came into view was a desperate and rotting body.

Limbs have been chopped off, and there are hideous wounds all over the body. In some places, the flesh and blood have even rotted, breeding fat maggots.

Xu Xiuyuan suddenly gave a sound of surprise.

"I've seen this man before, isn't he the servant who slacked off on us that day?"

There was still a look of fear and horror on the face of death, but this time he was unable to reveal more information to Xu Xiuyuan.

Just at this moment, a hoarse question with suppressed anger came from behind.

"Who allows you, excuse me, I am studying!"

　I was called by the instructor to check the progress of the completion of the project, and then the king of the book next door made the child numb, and I was rushing to the class in the afternoon, and there was only one update today.
