Pawn Crossing the River

Chapter 69: Aftermath

Chapter 69: Aftermath Qi Xuansu and his two men did not wait too long. Two days later, there were changes in Yunshen Cave, and they wanted to send him out.

This cave can distinguish between living people and dead objects. Living people will be transported out, but dead objects will not be affected at all and will stay here for a long time.

It gives people the feeling that before there is a real owner, the cave has always been in a state of thanking guests. All guests cannot stay for a long time. When the time is up, they will be sent out with gifts, and specifically, for people with high enough realms, if they are Ordinary people, like the people of Baiyun Sect, would stay here for a long time and even become part of the cave.

Before leaving, Qi Xuansu put the body of the "shopkeeper" in the alchemy furnace.

Generally, when immortals make alchemy, they will use their magical power to ignite the fire, which is convenient for controlling the heat. However, sometimes they also use some special fuel, such as introducing earth fire, etc., so the space of the alchemy furnace is quite large, and there is also the magical power of mustard seeds. After entering it, there is a different cave, like a sea of ​​fire.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Mengyao said: "Friends who often kill people know that it is easier to kill than to hide a person. I see that you are very skilled in hiding. I really should check you out."

"Kurato? Amateur! I'm a veteran like this who destroys homes without leaving any traces of trouble."

Qi Xuansu snorted, summoned the Dharma form of Bimi Huzun, and used the "true fire of the sun" to ignite Yu Bing in the alchemy furnace, directly burning the "shopkeeper" to ashes.

After the group teleported away from Yunshen Cave, they appeared on the lake of Yunmengze again. However, the strange phenomenon of Yunshan Mountain and Sea of ​​Fog had disappeared, and everything was calm.

Su Yuanzai also appeared not far away, and as expected, the old boy secretly used a substitute to escape the disaster.

Zhou Mengyao didn't say anything, turned around and left.

She and Qi Xuansu had already talked about what they needed to talk about, so there was no need to say anything more at this time.

Su Yuanzai didn't know the truth and didn't dare to stop Zhou Mengyao. He looked at Qi Xuansu and said, "Tianyuan, it's great that you are okay."

He turned his light to Long Xiaobai next to Qi Xuansu: "Who is this fellow Taoist?"

Qi Xuansu smiled and said: "He is a teacher from our Fangxiang Taoist Palace, and he was born with the second-grade Taiyi Taoist priest."

Su Yuanzai didn't ask in depth. He obviously had no intention of exploring Long Xiaobai's origins. As we all know, Qi Xuansu's experience in performing duties and making achievements as a Tianbu were overseas, and his interpersonal relationships were quite deep and complex. It was said that he was able to do it when he was in Nantian Continent. It makes sense to command the pseudo-immortal and now have multiple pseudo-immortal subordinates.

Su Yuanzai was more concerned about what happened to Qi Xuansu and Zhou Mengyao after they were swallowed by the extraterrestrial demon, and whether they should report to the Taoist sect, and if so, how they should report.

Now that Zhou Mengyao is gone, he is always worried about Zhou Mengyao's realm and cultivation. He has not had time to ask deeply. Now he can only place his hope on Qi Xuansu.

Qi Xuansu was very aware of Su Yuanzai's mentality tomorrow and had already thought of his words.

Qi Xuansu's principle is to tell no lies and no truth, so Qi Xuansu has omitted some key content, such as the truth about the extraterrestrial demons, the plans of the Daxuan court, and the head of the Lord Jujun, etc., and the rest is truthful. Explanation, including the ancient Jingzhou that was swallowed up by the demon outside the territory, Cangyun Castle in the two worlds of Yin and Yang, and the upside-down tower under the Nine Nethers, etc.

Qi Xuansu also specifically mentioned his relationship with Zhou Mengyao. Under the circumstances at that time, he could not care less about personal grudges and decided to put aside his past grudges.

In the end, they did find an alchemy furnace, but it was empty, with only some alchemy liquid left.

This is also true, but Qi Xuansu omitted the fact that it was Long Xiaobai who ate the elixir in the furnace many years ago.

After Su Yuanzai heard this, he was stunned and said: "It turned out to be the extraterritorial demon that swallowed up ancient Jingzhou. No wonder Yunmengze continued to expand contrary to common sense, forcing later generations to rename Jingzhou to Huzhou.

In this way, the Tianqi court sealed the great demon from outside the territory in the Cloud God Cave, so the so-called opportunity to become an immortal naturally fell into the hands of the Daxuan court, and I don't know which Daqi immortal was achieved. "

Qi Xuansu said: "That should be it."

Su Yuanzai frowned and asked: "Where is the innkeeper?" "

Qi Xuansu's expression remained unchanged: "I never saw him, he probably died inside."

Su Yuanzai was not suspicious. He did not know the details of the "shopkeeper". In his opinion, if he had not temporarily changed into a "body of all things", he would probably die in the cave. The "shopkeeper" was just a celestial being in the creation stage. , Wen doesn't have such things as "the body of Senluo Fangxiang", how can he live regardless of it? How can Ren Ren be compared with Qi Xuansu and Zhou Mengyao? It makes sense to die.

Su Yuanzai breathed out a breath: "Tian Yuan, this trip to the cave has cost people and troops. Not only did we not find the opportunity to become an immortal, but the half-immortals lost belong to the Taoist sect. Brother Yu will always give Jinque An explanation.”

According to seniority, Su Yuanzai is Qi Xuansu's father figure, but at this time he also lowered his attitude and acted like a brother.

Qi Xuansu didn't know what Su Yuanzai was thinking. He was waiting for Su Yuanzai to take the initiative to mention the matter: However, he still pretended to hesitate for a moment: "This matter is indeed difficult to explain. My opinion is that it should be rough rather than detailed. .

Su Yuanzai immediately asked: "So in Tianyuan's opinion, what is the right way to be rough?"

Qi Xuansu said: "Actually, these words are not easy to say on the table, but Zhenren Su is Xuansu's elder, and it is not an exaggeration to say that we are a family, so I will say it directly."

"We are one family, so we don't have to talk about different things. There are only you and me here... three people, so just say whatever you want to say."

Su Yuanzai said immediately.

Qi Xuansu then said: "First of all, it's a question of motivation. Don't mention any chance or opportunity to become an immortal, and don't mention Zhou Mengyao and the shopkeeper. Just stick to one thing, that is, there are only two of us. I came to investigate the mysteries of Yunmeng Lake, and I don't know anything else. As a result, I encountered an alien demon, so I accidentally lost two semi-immortal items."

Su Yuanzai nodded and agreed: "This is connected."

Qi Xuansu continued: "Since it is an investigation, there must be an investigation result.

The result of our investigation is that the alien demon descended during the Daqi period, swallowed up half of the ancient state, caused the Yunmeng Lake to expand, and was eventually sealed here by the Daqi court.

Our suggestion is that the seal is still intact, it is best not to change it rashly, and the seal should continue to be reinforced to prevent people from mistakenly entering it."

Su Yuanzai nodded again in agreement.

This is the best result. For the loss of two semi-immortal objects on duty, Jinque will at most give a few verbal criticisms, which will not affect the career.

As a senior official for many years, Su Yuanzai could come up with such a statement, but he had to lower his posture and ask Qi Xuansu for advice. His original intention was to reach an agreement with Qi Xuansu so that the lie could be made up.

If Qi Xuansu insisted on reporting the truth, then no matter how he talked, it would be useless. Now he lost two semi-immortal objects and he needed help, so the tone had to be set by Qi Xuansu.

After the two reached a consensus, Su Yuanzai proposed again: "How about the two of us jointly report this report?" Qi Xuansu declined: "Master Su is the head of the Xiangzhou Daofu. If I am the head of the Huzhou Daofu, and the incident happened at the border of the two states, then it is natural to report jointly, and there is no other responsibility.

You can find the current head of Wanxiang Dao Palace. This time I came to Xiangzhou just to visit my old boss Shi Zhenren. Hearing about the miraculous things in Yunmengze, it was a coincidence. If we report jointly, there will be suspicion of not keeping the name but not the words, so let Su Zhenren lead the report. I am here. "

Su Yuanzai did not force it: "That's fine."

In fact, he was just testing the waters. If Qi Xuansu was kind or naive, and agreed, that would be the best. If he didn't agree, there would be no big problem.

This is not that Su Yuanzai intended to frame Qi Xuansu. This is not a frame-up. It's just that Qi Xuansu has a big name, a strong backer, and is confident. As long as he is willing to take the lead, Jinque will probably not pursue it too much, and it will be easier to pass.

Now it seems that Qi Xuansu is not immature and is unwilling to take the lead.

Qi Xuansu said: "Zhenren Su, I still have to see Shi Zhenren. After all, I have been missing for so many days, which will inevitably make Shi Zhenren worried. I will report my safety first, otherwise Shi Zhenren will report to Jinque first. ”

Su Yuanzai said: "What Guan Yuan said is very true. Senior Sister Shi should be anxious to wait."

They are all from the lineage of Cihang. They are proper senior sister and senior brother. The relationship between Su Yuanyi, Shi Bingyun and Su Yuanzai is equivalent to that between Qi Jianyuan, Yao Pei and Qi Xuansu.

Qi Xuansu finally said: "Master Su, I still say that when it comes to the Great Xuan court, I always feel that there is an ominous sign. Don't make things bigger. If it involves the dispute between the two sects, the dispute between the upper and the lower, and then leads to the fate of the four major sects in the east, south, north and center, the problem will be complicated.

It is not something you and I can solve, and you and I are the first to bear the brunt and are at the center of the storm. I am afraid that the future is unpredictable.

So, this matter must be suppressed."

Su Yuanzai said seriously: "I think so too. This matter should be small rather than big. It must be suppressed. I will go back to Xuannv Palace and summon the Taoist government to discuss and carefully study and solve this matter. "

Qi Xuansu said no more. After parting with Su Yuanzai, he returned to Taoyuan County.

As Qi Xuansu expected, Shi Bingyun was almost unable to sit still. He wanted to discuss with Su Yuanzai, but Su Yuanzai also disappeared.

Shi Bingyun understood at once that he was trapped.

If the problem becomes serious, he can't report it rashly. At least he has to inform Cihang Zhenren first, so that Cihang Zhenren can be prepared and can't be caught off guard.

Just when Shi Bingyun was hesitating, Qi Xuansu finally came back, which made Shi Bingyun feel relieved.

Qi Xuansu just told the general experience, and then reported to Fangxiang Dao Palace that he was safe. He also said that he would return to Wanxiang Dao Palace soon, so there was no need to worry.

Now he is the master of the palace. As long as the master of the palace doesn't ask, others dare not ask more, let alone say more. Therefore, the masters like to work, not only to enjoy power, but also to enjoy freedom.
