My hexagram is perfect

Chapter 74 Hexagram 74

On the return journey, the speed was much slower. Worried that Lu Yao would be cold, Xuan Ge unbuttoned his coat and wrapped him directly in the coat to keep out the cold wind.

The hem of the clothes of the two of them was rattling by the wind, and the sound of whimpering wind made people feel chills from the bottom of their hearts.Lu Yao pressed closer to Xuan Ge's arms, muttering, "Why aren't you cold?"

"Because I want to keep you warm."

Rubbing Lu Yao's hair, Xuan Ge talked about what happened just now, "The man on the dark crow should have used some kind of secret technique. He is not a real entity, but he is not like Qinghe because of lack of strength. It can only be condensed into a phantom."

"Secret technique?" Lu Yao raised his head, and as soon as he spoke, his mouth was filled with cold wind.

Press his head on his chest, "Don't look up." Xuan Ge continued, "This situation is more like refining your own body, which can be placed on many kinds of carriers. For example, he puts on Overwhelmed Wu Zhi's 'shell' and controlled Yi Shu."

Lu Yao nodded, "Are you right about my suspicion? I still suspect it's the president." He recalled the scene he saw before, "Did you notice that the figure stood on the crow and made a shield wall to block you?" When leaving the fire, the engravings were drawn out of thin air. Senior Zhong once said that the president would also draw engravings out of thin air."

After finishing speaking, he denied his own words, "No, I can't add clues after I have decided on the candidate."

Xuan Ge was amused by him, "Why not? What the kitten said is right." He lowered his head and kissed Lu Yao's forehead, "There is also the issue of Yuanshui. He wants to get Yuanshui from you, which means Yuanshui Water does a lot for him, and there's no substitute for it."

Lu Yao understood what he meant, "The function of Yuanshui is to automatically dispel the dead energy and protect the host when the host is threatened by the dead energy."

"Yes," Xuan Ge nodded, "so there must be something wrong with his body now."

At this time, the plum garden could already be vaguely seen, and after adjusting the direction, Xuan Ge said softly, "Sometimes, you only need to experiment to get the answer."

When the two returned to the Plum Garden, the surrounding black mist was completely dispelled, and Yi Shu's body had been put away, ready to be transported back to the city overnight.

Captain Fang's reinforcements have arrived, and they are preparing to break open near the eye of the formation to see what's going on below the ground.

Seeing the two of them coming back, Xue Feiyi finally calmed down and asked nervously, "Are you all okay? Are you not injured? Who is that?"

"Everything is fine, no injuries, the man ran away before he made a move."

After listening to Lu Yao's answer, Xue Feiyi moved closer and lowered his voice, "After you left, Senior Zhong and the others had a small meeting. Yu Tuhao and I didn't hear the content, but we watched from a distance. , we all know that the quarrel was a bit fierce, it seems that Senior Zhong said something, Grandpa Wu and Teacher Song disagreed, and Grandma Long remained neutral and did not speak."

Seeing Lu Yao's expression, he lowered his voice, "You said... Could it be that Senior Zhong suspected the president?"

"possible."

However, the last word of Lu Yao was covered by the sound of explosions. The place where the explosives were placed was determined by Zhong Huainan himself, and a big hole was blown out in the ground.But it was completely different from what I imagined. There was no secret room under the ground, only a half-person-high stone slab, with a wooden sign embedded in the center of the slate.

Grandma Long stood closer, carefully looked at the pattern on it, and concluded, "It was brought out from the tomb, exactly the same."

Backing back again, Grandma Long looked at Captain Fang, "I have to borrow your armored vehicle, and I have to move this slab back."

Fang Dui didn't say much, and nodded in agreement.

After tidying up the scene, Grandma Long came to her senses and asked about Lu Yao's situation.

"I'm getting old, and I'm a bit out of energy after spending the whole night." She drank the hot water that Xue Feiyi handed over, and only a few traces of blood appeared on her pale face.

"No." Lu Yao recounted the general situation, "He disappeared very quickly in the end, and he didn't have time to catch up."

"If the entity hadn't come together, the chances of winning against you now may not be great, so I didn't do it." Grandma Long held the hot water cup in her hand, "When I was young, I heard that there were people who didn't want to be bound by life, old age, sickness and death. Using one's own body as a refining material and using secret techniques to refine it is called 'forging bones'. However, after the bone is forged, the human body will no longer exist, and a support must be found."

She let out a breath of steam, "Thus, people who have used the sorcery of bone forging have to make a shelter for themselves, so those who dare to attack themselves are not only masters of refining equipment, but also puppets. Master, but this is just my personal speculation."

Lu Yao thought of Yuan Shui, "Mother-in-law, does the person who has been forged have to control the death energy at all times?" Just like himself, the death energy is sealed in the left eye, but it must always be prevented from being corroded by the death energy.

"I'm not sure about that." Grandma Long shook her head, "However, as long as it belongs to profound art, no matter it is good or evil, it must follow the principle of equal value exchange."

Lu Yao was about to continue asking, when suddenly his mind moved, and he made a calculation, "Someone is here." He is still a very important person who will make things twists and turns.

A few minutes later, the horn of the car sounded suddenly, and the tires ran over the uneven road and stopped in front of the ruins.

Lu Yao felt that the car looked familiar, but soon, he knew why it was familiar - it was Ji Dongge who opened the door from the driver's seat.

The other party was wearing a black coat that reached down to the calf, and a classic plaid scarf around his neck. He stomped his feet on the spot in fear of the cold, and laughed, "The suburbs are much colder than the city center."

Grandma Long didn't speak for a few seconds, then her tone was normal again, "That's right, why are you here, Dongge?"

"Don't worry, just come and have a look." Ji Dongge straightened his gloves, and said in a concerned tone, "How are you doing, are you doing well?"

Grandma Long shook her head lightly, "Yi Shu is gone."

"Where is he going—" Before he finished speaking, Ji Dongge seemed to suddenly understand what Long Mutang meant by "gone", his smile froze at the corner of his mouth in an instant, and it took him a while to make a sound. Light, "Why did you leave..."

He bent his mouth habitually, but failed to smile, "I have an appointment with him. When the weather is cold, we will go to his place to eat soup pot."

Long Mutang closed his eyes, "It's on that armored vehicle, go and see him."

Ji Dongge nodded silently.

When the people went to the armored vehicle, Xue Feiyi leaned over, "What is this person's intention?"

Lu Yao shook his head, "I don't know for now, let's take a look first?"

"Well, anyway, I am uneasy and kind, the appraisal is complete."

After Ji Dongge got off the car, he looked very depressed, and Grandma Long's eyes also turned red.She wiped the corners of her eyes and coughed twice, "Okay, let's go back when we're done, it's almost dawn."

Xue Feiyi quietly handed over a tissue.

"Thank you, Xiao Zhuang." Granny Long thanked her with gentle eyes. At this moment, the bell rang, and she put the phone to her ear.

"Hey?"

In a few seconds, Grandma Long's expression changed. She clenched the tissue tightly and said in a deep voice, "I'll be back in an hour."

Zhong Huainan noticed something keenly, looked at Long Mutang's expression, "What happened?"

"Just now the Xuan Committee called, and the branch buildings in seven cities collapsed at the same time."

Teacher Song frowned, "It's all down? Did something come out?"

"Not sure, I'm looking for someone to look over."

After Long Mutang finished speaking, he looked at Ji Dongge, and saw that the other party had just hung up the phone with a very serious expression, "Preliminary arrangements have been made."

Faced with such a situation, the group quickly returned to the city.Lu Yao and the others all got into Yu Changsheng's car, and the five of them could just sit down.

"Yes——Ji Dongge suddenly ran over to prove his innocence?" Xue Feiyi touched his chin with his fingers, his expression pensive.

Lu Yao thought it was unlikely, "Probably not."

"No." Yu Changsheng stared ahead, focusing on two things, "Maybe, he wants to see our reaction. For him, this possibility will make him very excited."

"So twisted?" Xue Feiyi thought for a while, "That's right, if it wasn't twisted, I wouldn't call the dark crow a little crow." He rubbed his arms as he spoke.

The carriage was quiet for a while, Lu Yao sorted out his thoughts, and speculated, "According to what Grandma Long said, if the person behind has been forged and is always eroded by death energy, then this should be what the other party wants. The motivation to get Yuanshui."

"I think he got Yuanshui for more than that." Xue Feiyi touched the end of his eyes with his fingertips, "It comes from the intuition of an astrologer!"

The car drove all the way into an old guest house, and there was already a young man waiting at the gate.As soon as Ji Dongge and Grandma Long came out, he followed them, "The meeting room is ready."

Grandma Long and the others went to a meeting, and Lu Yao and the others were led into a suite.

Looking at the time, it was already five o'clock in the morning, Xuan Ge rubbed Lu Yao's hair, "Are you hungry?"

Lu Yao nodded honestly, "I'm hungry."

"When I came up, I saw a kitchen at the end of the corridor, so I went to make some food."

Coming out of the room, Xuan Ge went straight to the big kitchen.The corridor was very quiet, no one was passing by.

After closing the kitchen door, Xuan Ge hooked his fingers, and a golden-red flame appeared on his fingertips.After shaking, he flew out directly from the crack of the door.

After a minute or two, Grandma Long's voice came from his ear.

"The circumstances of Yi Shu's death have been finished, do you have any questions?"

An older male voice sounded, "Wu Zhi was controlled by someone, and Yi Shu was controlled as a puppet almost at the same time. May I ask if there are two puppet masters involved behind this?"

"To be investigated." Grandma Long replied very briefly, "The second thing is that the person who attacked Wuzhi is temporarily suspected to be a craftsman who has mastered the profound puppet technique."

"Both refining and puppetry have been lost for many years, you should know." It was the same voice as before.

Long Mutang's tone was flat, "I know, but apart from the craftsman and puppet art, I can't explain the current situation." She simply skipped this question, "The third point, the dark crow is something that existed in the tomb back then, It is the product of refining, and it can be preliminarily determined that there is a high possibility that there are things in the tomb hidden under the seven collapsed buildings, which need to be handled by people."

When it came to the tomb, there was a moment of silence.

After a while, a sharp female voice sounded, "It is understood that the target of the person behind this time is a hexagram master named Lu Yao."

Hearing this, Xuan Ge, who had been standing with his back against the wall, became serious.He had a cigarette in his mouth, but he didn't light it. He pressed the lighter with his fingers, and his eyes looked deep in the light of the flame.

Grandma Long's voice appeared again, "Yes."

"Then why don't we use this hexagram master as bait to lure the black hand behind the scenes? By then, we will catch the turtle in the urn and the loss will be minimized."

"No." Long Mutang denied the other party almost without waiting for the last word, "It's too dangerous."

"Elder Long, we are still not sure whether this hexagram master will be in danger. Even if there is danger, how is it more important than the sharp sword hanging over the head of the Xuan Committee?"

Long Mutang didn't take a step back, "It's just as important."

Zhong Huainan answered slowly, "His grandparents sacrificed for the Xuan Committee. If they knew that you people treated their grandchildren like this, I don't know if they would come to you in the middle of the night."

The sharp female voice paused for a few seconds before re-sounding, "As far as I know, this hexagram master is surnamed Lu, right? Are you sure that he didn't collude with the Lu family to endanger the mystical world? Maybe some people are old and blind, Easily deceived!"

The soup in the pot made a "gulu" sound, Xuan Ge put the chopped radish in it, the action was very careful, the soup didn't splash at all.There was some violence in his brows, and when he thought of Lu Yao, his eyes softened again.

There are still discussions about Lu Yao.

Long Mutang, Zhong Huainan and Wu Zhi stood firmly on Lu Yao's side, refusing to put Lu Yao in a dangerous situation in order to lure the people behind him, and the other side was also aggressive.

In the end, it was Ji Dongge who said aloud to discuss again, and then changed the topic.

Xuan Ge doesn't like other people to discuss Lu Yao like they are dealing with items.He covered the pot and turned the lighter a few times between his fingers.

The biggest reason for accepting Grandma Long's invitation and being named in the Mysterious Committee was the existence of the Lu family and Lu Yao's complete ignorance of the Mysterious Arts World.

And now, Xuan Ge took the knife and chopped the green onion neatly - if there is any disadvantage to Lu Yao, then just leave.

Before hearing the footsteps, Lu Yao stood up directly, walked over quickly and opened the door of the suite.Xue Feiyi ran after him, "Is the food here?" But no one came in.

"Xuan Ge should have reached the corner."

Sure enough, within a few seconds, Xuan Ge came over with a large tray, on which were four steaming bowls of radish noodle soup.

Pass the bowl with two soft-boiled eggs on it to Lu Yao first, and Xue Feiyi and the others will share the remaining three bowls.

Lu Yao wrinkled his nose, "Aren't you going to eat?"

"I have already eaten."

Holding the chopsticks to poke the soft-boiled egg, Lu Yao smiled openly and pretended to ask, "Why is it that I am the only one who has fried eggs?"

"Because I'm biased." Xuan Ge took it for granted, put the tray on the table casually, and sat next to Lu Yao by himself.

"I can't finish the two eggs." Lu Yao took a piece and fed it to Xuan Ge's mouth. Seeing that the other party opened his mouth to eat it, he happily finished the rest.

Xue Feiyi and Yu Changsheng looked at each other, feeling hot eyes, consciously bowed their heads and ate noodles seriously.

Within 5 minutes, the bowl of noodles was finished, and Xue Feiyi drank the soup to the fullest, contentedly.Yu Changsheng also put down his chopsticks at about the same time, "Thank you, it's very delicious."

Feeling that Yu Tuhao spoke very well, Xue Feiyi also sat down and said the same thing again, but the style of coming out was very different.

After Lu Yao finished eating, Xuan Ge handed him a cup of hot tea, and after he finished drinking, he pulled him up, "Lu Yao and I went to the bedroom, we have something to say, call us if you have anything to do."

Xue Feiyi waved his hand with an expression of "I understand very well", "Let's clean up the bowl, don't worry."

After closing the door, Lu Yao looked at Xuan Ge, "Is something wrong?" He was very sensitive to Xuan Ge's emotions.

"Well," Xuan Ge led someone to sit on the bed, "Long Mutang and the others are having a meeting."

Lu Yao nodded.

"Someone suggested that you should be handed over to bring out the mastermind behind the scenes."

Lu Yao instantly understood the meaning of this, "Are you using me as bait?" He thought, it's normal for some people in the Xuan Committee to have such thoughts.

"Well, Long Mutang, Zhong Huainan and the others are all against it, and they didn't make any concessions, but the overall situation is not good for you."

Seeing Xuan Ge's worried eyes, Lu Yao put his arms around the other's waist and raised his head, "I won't be so stupid, and I won't put myself in danger."

"Well, good."

Just like what the black shadow said in Meiyuan before, Lu Yao did feel a lot of emotions that he had never felt before in the Xuanhui, including the care of the elders and the friendship between friends of the same age. never had.

Xuan Ge was also worried for a moment, what should he do if Lu Yao really put himself in danger because of these feelings and volunteered to be the bait.

"However, the people behind the scenes are targeting the primordial water on my body, including you. They want to erase your consciousness, so we must confront him."

"If you're right, you're right. We have to take the initiative in this matter." Xuan Ge kissed his forehead, "I'll always be here." As he spoke, he seemed to have heard something, and his eyes turned cold, "Ji Dongge and the others decided to come and ask you personally if you would like to be a bait for the Xuan Committee."

"Ji Dongge?" Lu Yao pondered, "In the past 20 years, he will definitely put his own people in the Xuan Committee, or buy some people. These people must act according to his wishes after receiving his favor."

Lu Yao understood that Ji Dongge didn't want to confront them by force, so in Meiyuan, they used the lives of Grandma Long and the others as a threat, and now they have suppressed the righteousness of the Xuan Committee, the purpose is to force him to submit, hand over Out of Yuanshui.

He can imagine it himself, if he handed over Yuanshui, Ji Dongge would definitely separate himself from Xuan Ge, and at that time, the death energy would be unimpeded, and after a while, he would become a puppet, Or just die.

Rubbing Xuan Ge's waist, Lu Yao made a decision, "Staying is troublesome, let's get out of here." As he spoke, he calculated carefully, "Go southwest."

"Okay." Xuan Ge opened the window, hugged him well, and jumped down directly.

There was a knock on the door, Xue Feiyi opened the door, and saw a group of people standing outside, with Ji Dongge and Grandma Long at the front.

"Is Lu Yao here?" Ji Dongge's tone was gentle, but now Xue Feiyi has included him in the "enemy" team, and he doesn't like this, but there is nothing on his expression, "He is in the bedroom Take a rest, is there anything wrong? I'll tell him to come out."

A woman in her thirties said, "No, let's go and see this one in person."

A group of people went directly into the room and knocked on the closed bedroom door, but there was no movement for a long time.

Grandma Long looked serious, worried that something happened to Lu Yao, and asked Xue Feiyi, "Are you sure they are resting inside?"

"Yes." Xue Feiyi didn't understand what was going on now, and she was a little confused when she heard Grandma Long's question.

Grandma Long simply gathered a ray of breath on her fingertips, put it on the door lock, and only heard a "click", and the lock opened.But Grandma Long didn't open it immediately, but raised her voice and said, "Lu Yao, I opened the door."

After a few seconds, the door was opened, and the room was empty, with no one there.Grandma Long looked at the open window and felt relieved.
