Du Yuejiao pulled Shi Hao away, and said: "Uncle is like this. He usually doesn't care about specific affairs in Mingkun Academy. Basically, all his time is spent on casting treasures and alchemy, and In all kinds of weird experiments.

"I heard that my uncle originally had the opportunity to be promoted to the head of the Xianmen, but because he couldn't get along with other people in the Xianmen, he asked himself to be transferred to this branch."

She took Shi Hao, found an empty room, and explained to him the meal time in Guanzhong, etc., then left here and went back to the courtyard where she lived.

Shi Hao had nothing to do, so he cleaned up the room, which had obviously been unoccupied for a long time, and lay down on the hard wooden bed, practicing his kung fu.

Suddenly, I heard steady footsteps outside, and not long after, a man said: "Senior brother!"

"Hehe!" Daoist Lanke's voice also rang out, "Junior Brother Song Cui hastily rushed over, is this something important?"

The man said: "I heard that senior brother took in an outer disciple without authorization and let him live in this Mingkun Temple?"

Lan Ke said humanely: "Yes, there is such a thing."

The man was dissatisfied and said: "Senior brother, you don't report to the immortal sect, and it is a taboo in the immortal sect to accept disciples without authorization and to teach exercises. What's more, I am the master of the temple here, and the senior brother will not be with me. Just say a word, and bring an outer disciple to this temple?"

Taoist Lanke said hehe: "It's just that I accidentally found this inner strength and sword manual. I just ran into this kid. I saw that he was quite talented, so I threw it to him to practice by himself. If the younger brother thinks, I will let him live in it." It's not right, that's okay, I'll take him away, and I won't come back in three or two years."

The man froze for a moment, and said angrily, "Brother, what do you mean? You want to leave at this time, leaving that mess behind..."

Dao Lanke said humanely: "You also know that it's a mess? I'm just an experimenter. At that time, you were the one who wanted to be greedy and refused to report to the fairy gate. No one watched those things, and let the female snitch take such important things. You were also the one who stole the information. I didn’t say anything to you, everything happened, and I took it with you.

"In the end, I took in a descendant from outside and brought him to live in this temple for a few days. Junior brother...ah no, Lord of the temple! You won't let me do that, will you?"

The man paused for a moment, and his voice sounded a bit swallowed: "Since it is the successor accepted by the senior brother, I can't say anything. It's just that the senior brother just came back, and suddenly there was an external disciple. The junior brother is also the master of the temple. Always ask.

"However, since he is the successor accepted by the senior brother, I will register it now and report it to the Xianmen, so that he can officially enter my sect."

Lan Ke said humanely: "Okay! Okay! Then I will trouble the Lord!"

The sound of steady footsteps soon faded away.

Shi Hao got up and went outside, and saw Taoist Lanke holding a big dustpan, putting a bunch of medicinal materials in it, shaking it back and forth.

Shi Hao said: "Trouble senior!"

Daoist Lanke hehe said: "Don't bother! Don't bother! That child Yuejiao has always been proud and arrogant. I was afraid that she would suffer a lot in the future if she didn't understand the darkness outside. Now that you are taking care of me, I can rest assured." That's it. This is what I want to trouble you for!"

Shi Hao said: "Senior, you are being polite! By the way, I heard from Yuejiao that the senior is good at refining alchemy and casting treasures, but the junior is not talented. Can you follow the senior here and learn this way?"

Taoist Lanke put down the dustpan, stroked his short beard and said with a smile: "If you are willing to learn, that would be great. Come, come, learn from the most basic place first!" He handed the dustpan to him directly, and taught He does what he does, and then goes about his own business.

Shi Hao felt that he was a handyman delivered to his door!

Of course, for Shi Hao, it is still necessary to learn the art of alchemy.

Although Fairy Shengxuan gave him the recipe of the seventh-grade elixir, if he didn't know how to make alchemy himself, he had to ask others for help, which would be a troublesome thing after all.

Here, I helped Taoist Lanke fight for a long time, and asked a lot of questions during the period.Although Daoist Lanke commanded him relentlessly, he answered every question he had, and even explained it in detail without hiding anything.

When it was almost evening, a little boy suddenly came over and said, "Is this the new Senior Brother Shi Hao? There are distinguished guests in the temple, please come to the Weixiang Pavilion."

Shi Hao wondered in his heart: "Honored guest?"

After asking this little boy about the location of Weixiang Pavilion, Shi Hao left here and walked all the way to Weixiang Pavilion.

Because when I came in the morning, many Taoists were doing morning classes, and I didn't see many people. Now I looked all the way, and there were quite a few Taoists coming and going.

Chongxian Gate is known as the most authentic Taoist gate in the world. Even if it is just a remote Taoist temple, it is magnificently built and occupies a very large area.Looking from the inside, it is even more that the buildings are scattered, and there are golden courtyards and precious pavilions everywhere.

In another square, there are many young people wearing light blue strong clothes, practicing kung fu with swords under the guidance of a Taoist.Those gathered together and awarded martial arts uniformly are not the direct descendants of the real people and scattered people in the Chongxian sect, and their status is far inferior to Du Yuejiao and other inner sect direct descendants.

What they practice is not the inner alchemy method of the authentic Taoist sect, but other martial arts collected by Chongxianmen. Most of them, their lifetime achievements are only ninth rank, and occasionally some can advance to eighth rank, which is already It's not easy anymore.

But on the other hand, the gathering of a large number of ninth-rank warriors is actually a force that cannot be ignored.Although these fighters are not the backbone, they are also the cornerstones for Chongxianmen to become the largest martial arts school.

For many children from poor families, being able to become a small pebble in these "cornerstones" is already beyond their original class.

All the way to Weixiang Pavilion, here are Qionghua Ruicao, birds singing and flowers fragrant.A pavilion is exquisite and elegant. There is a pair of incense burners in front of the pavilion, and the fragrance is wafting.Standing outside the door, I heard the voice of a girl talking inside.

"Brother Shi, you are here!" Du Yuejiao saw him first, "Please come in."

Shi Hao stepped in, and in addition to Du Yuejiao, he also saw Yue Ketai's daughter, Yue Ya'er, and Litong county lord.

Crescent Moon is wearing a beautiful flower crown and a flower dress, and she is dressed like a flower.Among the three girls, she was the petite, and she looked even more tender and lovely in such a dress.

Litong County Lord is wearing a blue and red two-color golden hundred butterfly skirt, which looks much quieter.

Du Yuejiao was still wearing the "Taoist Robe" that looked like a real skirt, but it was willow blue in color. On the back was embroidered a Yin-Yang fish that represented people in the Taoist sect, and it was dotted with many light pink petals and cloud patterns.

This kind of color is bright, but it is obvious at a glance that he is not a person in the secular world, and he has a fairy air of being at ease.

"Brother Shi, sit down!" Du Yuejiao stood up and said softly.

County Lord Litong and Yue Ya'er looked at Du Yuejiao together, there was a kind of strangeness in their eyes, "Who is this person, why don't you know him all of a sudden".

Shi Hao thought to himself, what should Du Yuejiao look like in their eyes?

Shi Hao sat down.Du Yuejiao looked at him and said: "Sister Yueya'er heard about the case in the morning, so she rushed over to find out what happened. I just told him the whole truth!"

Yue Ya'er put her hands on her hips, and said bitterly: "So, in this case of child abduction and trafficking, even those guys from the Six Doors were involved? No wonder they couldn't find out anything. Waiting for a year, I'm afraid there won't be anything famous."

County Lord Litong said softly: "If we can't wait for the result, I'm afraid it's all good. What's more likely is that, like today, they randomly arrest some people, beat them into tricks, and close the case.

"Then again, I can understand that those people from Six Doors have always been corrupt and perfunctory, but it's still hard to imagine that they personally participated in this kind of human trafficking case."

Shi Hao shook his head: "This case is definitely not that simple!"

Chapter 25 Samadhi Fire

Yue Yue'er tilted her face, and folded her hands on the rosewood round table: "It's not that simple?"

Shi Hao said in a deep voice: "What the six doors do is nothing more than seeking money, power, and fame. Naturally, you don't need to expect a good reputation when you do this kind of thing. Moreover, if this kind of thing is exposed, the court will continue Anyway, I have to ask more or less.

"So, the biggest reason for these people is to seek money. But what kind of interests would make the six sects personally participate in this kind of thing?"

The three girls looked at each other.

Yue Yueer nodded: "Based on the style of those people, when others pay them money, they turn a blind eye, such things will definitely happen.

"But like now, it's equivalent to sending people directly to help those thieves who kidnapped children to patrol and help them quickly solve hidden dangers. The price is not low."

Shi Hao said: "What's more important is that those children were sent to the northwest, and it's fine to send them to the prosperous cities in the south. What are they going to do in the northwest?"

Litong county lord was also puzzled: "That's right, from Jinjun's side, if you go to the northwest, you will go to the Gobi."

Yue Ya'er grabbed her hair on her head: "This is going to be difficult. I brought people over to supervise the case. How could I have imagined that the six doors would be involved in this kind of thing at the beginning? At most, I only thought about it. People are slacking off again, not doing business, come over to supervise and put some pressure on them, they always have to work.

"I didn't expect these people to be able to do this. If I don't rely on the six doors, I don't have anyone I can trust in Jin County. Even if I send some county soldiers from the county mansion, I don't think it's safe."

The head of Litong County said: "The guards in the mansion are independent, they have never been involved with the six sects, just..."

Shi Hao shook his head and said: "If you want those personal soldiers to investigate this kind of Jianghu case, I'm afraid they will only be fooled by these people from the Six Doors.

"If possible, I hope Miss Yue will pretend that she doesn't know any inside information for the time being, and only continue to supervise the six doors to handle the case on the bright side, and don't do anything else. I am from Jin County, and I have some connections in Jin County. You can investigate in secret, and when necessary, ask the girl to deploy troops in time to give a full blow."

Yue Ya'er was also refreshing, and nodded: "Okay, then do it like this!"

However, Du Yuejiao looked at County Master Litong again: "Junior Sister, did you find out the origin of those who attacked you on the Red Mountain last time?"

County Lord Litong shook his head: "These people are quite secretive, and their specific backgrounds have not been known until now. However, I heard from my father yesterday that during this period of time, attacks against the imperial court and the royal family in various provinces are There are more and more, and it seems that there is a secret organization that is linking up the forces that were originally scattered and resisted the imperial court. If this continues, I am afraid that it will become more and more chaotic in the future."

Can't help but look at Shi Hao again: "Fortunately, last time, I was kind enough to save my life..."

Du Yuejiao suddenly said: "Don't talk about the past, come, let's drink tea."

Princess Litong choked in the middle of her sentence.

Yue Ya'er looked at Du Yuejiao who suddenly had a sullen face, and burst out laughing.

After sitting for a while, seeing that if they don't go back to the city, the city gate will be closed, County Mistress Litong and Yue Ya'er bid farewell and left.

Shi Hao followed Du Yuejiao and sent them outside.I saw a luxurious carriage parked outside, escorted by a team of cavalry, and eighteen other winged beasts with the head of a bird and a horse body. These are extremely rare heroic moves.

County Lord Litong and Yue Ya'er got into the carriage, and the chasing Lei Shiba Flying Horse rode Ying Zhao, who was actually flying in the air, protecting them.

After they left, Shi Hao and Du Yuejiao chatted for a while before going back to their respective courtyards.

That night, Shi Hao continued to practice.

After these days of practice, whether it is Xuanmei Gong or Xianbing Jue, the skill is continuously improving.

He is even sure that before the arrival of this full moon night, he will practice both of these exercises to the extreme.

In this way, he must make a plan as soon as possible for the materials needed for the seventh-rank immortal party and the one hundred living souls needed for the seventh-rank magic source ceremony. Before the round night, advance to the seventh rank.

After he entered the Chongxianmen, the difficulty of obtaining the three main medicinal materials required by the seventh-grade immortal formula was greatly reduced.

But one hundred living souls, this is not an easy task.The so-called living souls are the souls of a hundred people who died within an hour, the souls that have not had time to dissipate.

This means that he has to kill a hundred people.

Although there are signs of troubled times in this era, and more and more refugees are fleeing from the Central Plains, it is impossible for him to attack those innocent people.

On the morning of the second day, he helped Taoist Lanke with a lot of chores. At noon, he was invited by Du Yuejiao to her Weixiang Pavilion for dinner.

Although there is a cafeteria in Guanzhong, it is only natural for a direct disciple like Du Yuejiao to open a small kitchen by himself.

After the meal, at noon, Shi Hao found an excuse and asked Du Yuejiao to take him for a stroll in the Mingkun Courtyard.

Du Yuejiao didn't refuse either, so she led him around the Mingkun Temple, explaining it to him along the way.

Until he came to a palace at the back, Shi Hao saw that the doors and windows of that palace were closed, and there were many people guarding around.This place is quite far from the main hall, and there are not many people around.

Shi Hao asked, "Where is that place?"

Du Yuejiao said softly: "There is the Golden Trial Hall. Uncle always has some whimsical ideas. In the past, experiments were carried out in this Golden Trial Hall. There are many unique alchemy and alchemy techniques in the Immortal Gate, all completed here. .”

Shi Hao said: "So that's the case, no wonder there are so many people guarding it."

Du Yuejiao shook his head and said: "That's not true! In the past, my uncle was here, doing his own business, and no one bothered him. It's just that the latest experiment is too important, and now the entire Golden Trial Palace has been sealed. Wait for Xianmen and the imperial court to send people over to take over."

Shi Hao said: "That's it!" He was worried that Du Yuejiao would become suspicious, so he didn't continue to ask, but turned around and left with her.

But he knew in his heart that he was one step closer to the information he wanted.

-

In the afternoon, Du Yuejiao went to do her homework, while Shi Hao left Mingkun Temple and went into the city alone.

When he arrived in the city, he turned around a lot, and after making sure that no one was following him, he used the Evil Shadow Disguise Technique to change his appearance, and then came to the remote house, where he met Mr. Qiu and Lu Tong.

Sitting down in the hall, Lu Tong said: "Brother Hao, do you have any clues about the Conferred God Experiment?"

Shi Hao shook his head and said: "There are no more clues yet, but some progress has been made, give me some more time, and I should be able to gain something.

"However, what is certain is that the information you received earlier is true. Ming Kunguan and Yueke Taishi are indeed conducting some kind of experiment.

"At the beginning of this experiment, it seemed that due to the selfishness of Taoist Songcui, the master of the Ming Kun Temple, he did not report it to Chongxianmen and the court. Until now, it can't be concealed, and things have started to get serious. The main experiment should be twelve Taoist Lanke, one of Quanzhen, is located in the Gold Test Hall behind Mingkun Temple.

"Now the entire Golden Test Palace is blocked, waiting for the senior officials of Chongxianmen and the imperial court to take over."

Qiu Laodao: "This Lan Ke Taoist, according to our investigation, although he is one of the twelve perfect truths, he is devoted to the art of casting treasures and refining alchemy, obsessed with various researches, and often has fantastic ideas. With his identity , At least he should be a temple master in the branch, and even have the opportunity to climb higher, but because he is not very contaminated with common things, he was sent to this kind of place and became an idler.

"If it were him, it would not be surprising to have researched this 'experiment of conferring gods' that is said to be able to affect the general trend of martial arts."

Shi Hao said blankly: "Just give me some more time for this matter. There is another important matter, and I want your help."

Qiu Laodao: "Strong man Hao just give orders, as long as we can do it, we will do our best."

Shi Hao told some of the truth behind the disappearance of the child. Of course, he spoke vaguely about how he obtained the information, lest An Lei would guess his real identity.

Even though these people were righteous men against the barbarian court, he did not intend to expose himself in front of them.After all, the heart of defense is indispensable.

Lu Tong said fiercely: "Those barbarian hawks and scum of the rivers and lakes of the six doors, I knew that they were not good people, but I didn't expect them to be so bad."

Qiu Laodao: "In this way, the local Six Doors must have participated in the kidnapping of those children. However, they should not be the ones who actually kidnapped the children. Apart from the Six Doors, there must be other gangs involved.

"It's just that Six Doors doesn't follow the usual practice of turning a blind eye after taking money, but deeply participating. The benefits behind this must be huge, so big that those scum from the local Six Doors can't refuse. And Or... there are other rich and powerful families involved behind this?"

Shi Hao said: "I need to know who is the gang that cooperates with Six Doors."

Mr. Qiu nodded: "Don't worry, Mr. Hao, we have been investigating this matter, but we haven't had too many clues. In fact, we have long been wondering that most cases like this are done by some low-level gangsters." , with our eyeliner, there is no reason why we can't find out.

"I didn't expect that the six doors would help to cover up the evidence. Now that we know that the six doors are involved and that the children were sent to the northwest, we will be able to get rid of the cobwebs. At least, we will first find out the hidden gang behind it."

Shi Hao said in a deep voice: "It would be great if those children could be rescued."

Lu Tong looked at this young man with a hooked nose, and said in a low voice, "Brother Hao is really a hero, don't worry, we will definitely do our best in this regard."

After saying goodbye to them, Shi Hao changed back to his original face on the way, and returned to the Taoist temple all the way.

At this moment, he is nominally a disciple of Taoist Lanke, who is one of the Twelve Perfect Truths of the Chongxian Sect. Although he is not the master of the temple in Mingkun, even the master of the temple has to call him a senior brother.

At this time, the temple master has registered him in the book and reported it to the fairy gate.In this way, he is like Du Yuejiao, he can be regarded as a "direct heir", most of the guards of the mountain gate are outer disciples who practice martial arts and serve as handymen at the same time, and they will never ask him about his comings and goings.
