When I was a Taoist

Chapter 543
"I'm afraid I can't help you this time."

As soon as I heard Niu Jin's words, I immediately became anxious. If you can't help me, why should I ask you now.I was immediately unhappy, and said righteously: "Senior, I am helping our Archives Bureau solve an unsolved case 30 years ago. If you can't provide me with any help, I'm afraid I will die here on duty .”

"Don't talk nonsense with me, I don't know your little thoughts."

Niu Jin cursed, but fortunately he didn't really intend to give up on me, but pointed out a clear path for me: "I just met a friend in country B, he is known as the encyclopedia of the supernatural circle, so everyone in the circle Call him a know-it-all. I have solved many unsolved cases through him, you can go to him and try. Since the blood tower is raging in country B, I think he should have a clue."

After talking, Niu Jin hung up the phone, and then sent me an address.Now that I had this important clue, I immediately searched for the address Niu Jin sent me, and found that this place turned out to be a luxury villa.I have to feel that most people in the supernatural circle can make a lot of money, but people like us can only meet their daily needs like ascetics.Not to mention buying a villa, I don't even have the money to buy a car.

He walked to the gate of the villa and knocked on the door. After waiting at the door for a long time, no one responded.My subconscious reaction was that PepsiCo had an accident, but then I looked at the several defensive formations around the villa, and the formations were intact without any signs of damage, so it is unlikely that they were killed by a ghost.So the only possibility now is that I came by accident, and Know-it-all happens to be not at home.In desperation, I had no choice but to find a hotel to stay in first, and then wait for the night to wander around the streets, maybe I could meet the Blood Tower.

After dinner, the sky was getting dark, and I walked out of the hotel and rushed towards the remote area.Romon told me in the morning that the tower would appear once in less than a week, and it happened to be a week since the last time it appeared.If I'm lucky, maybe I'll be able to bump into this tower tonight to find out.

After wandering the streets for three or four hours, I still didn't find any trace of the tower.I thought it was over tonight, and when I was about to go back home, I accidentally found a dark shadow flashing behind me not far away, and then merged into the darkness.

When I found out that I was being followed, my first reaction was that Tianji was planning to make trouble for me again.After all, apart from them, no one would have such a great interest in me.I pretended I didn't notice it, and I still swaggered through the alleys.After wandering around for more than half an hour, the black shadow behind me was like a maggot on the tarsus, and I couldn't get rid of it.

I quickened my pace and turned into a dead-end alley, and then jumped onto a wall more than two meters high, wanting to see where this guy came from.Sure enough, not long after, this figure really followed in.He tiptoed to the middle of the alley, only to realize that he had been fooled when he found that there was no way out.When he hurriedly turned around and wanted to exit, I jumped down and blocked his retreat, touched my nose and said: "You are not tired after following me for so long, isn't it the bastard sent by Tian Chance?" You came to follow me?"

"What a chance, I don't understand what you're talking about."

Heiying shook his head, pretending to be innocent and said, "I'm just a tourist from other places. I just wanted to follow you out of this place because I got lost here. Don't get me wrong."

"Tourist? Whether it's real or not, you'll know if you try it."

I grinned, and suddenly threw the golden blade talisman that I had held in my hand for a long time towards him.More than a dozen golden daggers shot out from the spell, and the black shadow retreated quickly, and then a golden shield condensed out in front of him, blocking all the daggers.

Seeing that his identity had been exposed, Hei Ying jumped up without saying a word, trying to escape out of the alley.I had expected him to do this a long time ago, and threw out a few golden blade talismans that had been prepared for a long time.The black shadow held the golden shield in his hand, and countless daggers hit it, bursting out a series of sparks.But in this way, he couldn't leave the dead end.Taking advantage of this opportunity, I bullied myself over and swung my sword towards the golden shield in his hand.

"clang!"

When the sword struck the shield, there was only a crisp sound of metal collisions, but it didn't hurt him at all. Instead, a blast of holy power shot out from the shield, making my palm numb.I took two steps back, shook my wrist, and said with a sneer, "So it's someone from the Holy See. I didn't expect that Romon agreed to cooperate with me on the surface, but secretly engaged in these conspiracies and tricks. You go back and tell Romon that my cooperation with him is completely complete. Canceled. As for the tower, I will continue to investigate for the sake of the Chinese Congress, but even if the truth is found out, it has nothing to do with your Holy See."

After finishing speaking, I didn't bother to talk nonsense with him, so I turned around and left the alley.But on the way back, the more I thought about it, the more I felt something was wrong. If this guy was really sent by Romon, even if he could follow me to discover the secret of the tower, Romon still couldn't solve this problem without my help.As long as he is a smart person, he will never do such a stupid thing like shooting himself in the foot.

Thinking of this, I suddenly regretted letting the guy who followed me go, so I hurried to the Holy See to find Romon, and told him everything that happened.When the latter heard that, his complexion instantly turned bright, and he hurriedly asked, "Does that guy you met have a golden shield?"

I nodded, and Romon smiled wryly when he saw this, and his tone was full of helplessness: "I almost forgot if you didn't tell me. In fact, I was not alone in the investigation of the strange incident in the tower. Back then, the archbishop asked me to cooperate with one person to investigate." , As a result, I had a disagreement with him, so we started to check our own information separately. If anyone can discover the secret of the tower first, whoever will naturally be favored by the Archbishop. The guy who is following you tonight is him, Bishop Rokan."

"Rokan? Is there a blood relationship between you?" I asked curiously.

Sighing, Romon nodded and said, "Rokan is my son and the youngest bishop of the Holy See in a hundred years. This kid has been arguing with me all his life, and he will never accept my decision. It completely angered him, so he gritted his teeth and insisted on fighting me to the end. I think he followed you to get clues about the tower, so that he could complete the archbishop's commission before us."
