Chapter 170: Temptation

Chapter 170

"Unless the people in the Hidden Immortal Sect have the permission of the imperial court, they are not allowed to be involved in secular world affairs, this is an iron law. The Aquarius Daoist had a serious expression and a very firm tone.

Liu Han had heard this many times, and he was not the slightest surprised, the only thing that surprised him was that the secular world was more vigilant against the Hidden Immortal Sect than he had estimated, and even the Supreme Elder of the Taiping Dao, who had not shown up for a long time, came.

"I'm not sure if Fang Zhen's death was the work of the Hidden World Immortal Sect," Liu Han pondered, "To be honest, I have received an order from the imperial court to investigate this matter, and I hope that the Dao Master can assist me." ”

The head of the Aquarius Daoist looked calm and nodded slightly: "I also received a request from the palace, I believe Xu Daoyou may have also received it," Noticing that Liu Han's expression showed doubts, he was slightly surprised in his heart, and still explained: "Xu Daoyou of the Immortal Sect was said to be in retreat some time ago, and I don't know if he has been out of the customs yet. ”

Liu Han understood, this must be another great master, it seems that the matter of the Hidden Immortal Gate has alarmed many people, these old monsters who have long disappeared in the rivers and lakes have appeared, and now this Yangzhou City does not know how many eyes are looking for clues to the Hidden Immortal Gate.

Liu Han silently drank two sips of tea, and the Aquarius Daoist didn't speak, and there was a sudden silence between the two.

After a while, Liu Han spoke: "I have been in Yangzhou for a few months, and I have been investigating for a few months, and I have no clues about this matter. ”

The Aquarius Daoist said gently: "The top-grade Grandmaster is already standing on the pinnacle of the rivers and lakes, except for us old monsters, Mr. Liu shouldn't have any worries." ”

"I don't know much about the Hidden World Immortal Gate, but, as you can imagine, it should be very powerful, you see, now I go with a guard," Liu Han sighed and said: "I have also checked for a few months, and I feel that there is no other way except to find Xiao Lan, but after looking for so long, I haven't found it, so I feel that Xiao Lan may have been wiped out." ”

The Aquarius Daoist didn't speak, he was silent for a while before nodding slightly, Liu Han thought for a while and said, "If it's really the Hidden Immortal Gate, who should probably leave." ”

The Aquarius Daoist nodded again, he only came to see Liu Han today, but in fact, he has been in Yangzhou for more than a month, and he has some understanding of the situation in Yangzhou.

"Mr. Liu has been in Yangzhou for more than half a year, and he has been investigating this case for a long time, isn't there any clue?" asked the Aquarius Daoist again.

Liu Han hesitated and shook his head, but the Aquarius Daoist saw it in his eyes and said, "It's okay to say anything." ”

Liu Han still hesitated, and hesitated for a while before saying, "I have a suspicion target, but there is no evidence." ”

Sighing and shaking his head, he was very hesitant, whether to throw Wang Ze out now, this is too big, the Wang family is a thousand-year-old family, who knows if his friendship with the Taiping Dao Immortal Sect is deep.

The Aquarius Daoist didn't continue to ask, but instead asked, "There is a ghost on the opposite side of Zizhu Mountain, who was recently bought. ”

Liu Han nodded: "Yes, I bought it from Hanhai Trading Company, what's wrong?" ”

"Do you know Zizhu Mountain?" asked the Aquarius Daoist.

Liu Han pretended to be puzzled and nodded: "Of course I know, I have been there, the purple bamboo on the mountain is very beautiful, so I agreed to buy the ghost sorrow, I am a little strange that this ghost sorrow does not seem to be expensive, it is much cheaper than I expected." ”

"Zizhu Mountain is actually one of the Hidden Immortal Gates," the Aquarius Dao Master said suddenly, his eyes fixed on Liu Han.

Liu Han couldn't help but sigh softly, slightly surprised and curious, and felt that his acting skills were not bad.

A trace of doubt flashed in the eyes of the Aquarius Dao Master, since he saw Liu Han, he had been locking on Liu Han, but except for just now, Liu Han's true qi fluctuated slightly, and his breath was very calm at other times.

"I don't know the specifics, but this Zizhu Mountain was broken a few decades ago, and now it's just an ordinary sect in the secular world. The Aquarius Master said.

Liu Han breathed a sigh of relief, took a sip of tea, smiled and said, "Scare me, luck, luck, no wonder it's so cheap." ”

The Aquarius Daoist looked at him and asked with a smile, "Why?"

"I thought it would cost me a lot to buy such a mountain, but in the end it cost far less than I expected. Liu Han explained: "Jiangnan is the focus of the development of my Hanhai trading company, where the products are abundant, the transportation is convenient, the Yangtze River canal, extending in all directions, silk, cotton, grain, salt and tea, famous all over the world, Yangzhou has the name of Jinyangzhou." ”

The Aquarius Daoist looked at Liu Han, looking at the envy or greed on his face, and couldn't help but wonder a little in his heart, this guy didn't look like a martial artist, more like a businessman, and he had the demeanor of a high-grade grandmaster.

Taiping Dao is the largest sect on the rivers and lakes, there are more people than Changshengzong and Xiaohanshan, but the good and bad in the door are uneven, so the momentum is not as good as Changshengzong and Xiaohanshan, but in fact, the core characters of Taiping Dao rarely walk the rivers and lakes, for example, there is also a Lingjing Temple in Yangzhou City, in fact, only this Taoist Temple is the core of Yangzhou Taiping Dao, and it looks more magnificent, and the Lingjing View of incense is only the periphery.

Liu Han didn't continue to speak, looked at the Aquarius Daoist, and suddenly suddenly realized: "The seniors won't doubt me, right?" ”

The Aquarius Daoist didn't speak, Liu Han shook his head and smiled: "I can't let Xiao Lan betray Fang Zhen, I'm afraid my predecessor is wrong." ”

Before the head of the Aquarius Dao was in Yangzhou, the disciples of Taiping Dao in Yangzhou had already begun to investigate this matter.

The general view of Taiping Dao is in Qianzhufeng in Yuzhou, different from the Changsheng Sect, the organization of Taiping Dao is relatively tight, the supreme leader of the general view is called the Heavenly Master, each state has a great real person, each state has only one big real person, under the big real person is the real person, the real person is called the walker, the walker is the teacher, etc.

Strictly speaking, Taiping Tao is not prevalent in the south, and there are more believers in the north. Yangzhou Taiping Dao and Cao Gang did not have close contacts, the two sides treated each other politely, Fang Zhen's death, initially did not arouse the concern of Taiping Dao, but two months ago, suddenly received an order from the general view to investigate Fang Zhen's death.

Subsequently, the Aquarius Daoist suddenly arrived in Yangzhou, and the elder, who had not shown up for a long time, suddenly came to Yangzhou, and the Taiping Daoists were frightened, so they became cautious.

Fang Zhen's matter is not difficult to investigate, Taiping Dao quickly found out, the purpose of the Aquarius Dao Chief is not how Fang Zhen died, but the hidden immortal gate, he took a different path and set his eyes on Liu Han, Taiping Dao quickly checked Liu Han's background and the actions of Hanhai Trading Company in Yangzhou.

At the beginning, the head of the Aquarius noticed that the ghost was bought by the Hanhai Trading Company, so he quietly went to the ghost and sorrow, sneaked into the villa to check, and went to the top of the mountain to see the ghost, but he didn't find out anything, and with his cultivation, naturally he didn't alarm the people in the villa.

The Aquarius Daoist's expression was still very calm: "This is true, but I don't mean to say that Fang Zhen was killed by an adult. ”

Liu Han immediately noticed the change in his title, this adult, it means that you are not registered in the palace to walk in the hermit immortal sect.

He smiled a little helplessly: "The palace also asked me this question, I feel strange, I fought with the fisherman Jueming, and I didn't doubt the Wang family who set up the formation, but I doubted that I, the one who broke the formation, did my predecessors have some reversal of right and wrong." ”

The Aquarius Daoist stared at him for a moment, and Liu Han read the disappointment in his gaze, but he still didn't dare to relax in the slightest.

"Lao Dao has been here all this time, if you have anything, come here to find me. The Aquarius Master said.

Liu Han immediately got up and saluted from the Treasure Aquirius Daoist: "If you find out, the lower officials must trouble the Daoist, and I will definitely report this matter to the palace." ”

The Aquarius Daoist didn't speak, Liu Han turned around and left, pushed open the door at the door, and suddenly a fierce energy hit behind him, he couldn't help but be shocked, and he didn't even have time to react too much, the internal breath naturally gushed out from the dantian, the wind unfolded nine times, his feet slipped, and he moved two steps flatly.

But this momentum immediately turned slightly, like a spiritual snake, suddenly turned around halfway, and still rushed towards Liu Han, Liu Han dodged again, his body shook like a puff of green smoke, and there was a faint sound of wind and thunder between the flights.

The nine turns of the wind spread out with all its might, and he couldn't see his figure clearly, like a whirlwind rushing through the house.

But Liu Han never dared to stop, because the energy always chased him, like a bone appendage, making people desperate.

The Great Grandmaster is like a high mountain, is it so unattainable!

After stepping into the Nine Grades, he once thought that he could fight with the Great Grandmaster, at least he could protect himself, but today, the Aquarius Dao Master ruthlessly proved that it was impossible!

If we change people, I am afraid that our confidence will be greatly damaged because of this! In the future, I will not have the confidence to fight against the Great Grandmaster.

But Liu Han is different, he came out of the killer camp, and more importantly, he is not a person from this time and space, since he came to this world, he has always been on the edge of life and death, seeking survival in death!

That energy never left his vest, so that he had no time to separate, and he didn't even have time to speak, and he didn't have time to draw his knife.

Poof, poof.

After two changes in a row, he finally pulled that momentum away by half a foot, Liu Han gritted his teeth, dodged and pounced on the Aquarius Dao Chief, his face was expressionless, and he punched down.

The expression of the head of the Aquarius Dao was unwavering, he didn't even move half of his beard, and the sleeves of his robe shook and swept towards Liu Han.

"Bang!"

There was a dull sound in the room, like a bubble bursting in the air, and like a bottle cork being popped, Liu Han flew upside down, staggering in mid-air, looking very embarrassed.

But in his heart, he was overjoyed, the opponent's strength broke through his fist strength and invaded his body, but as soon as he reached the crook of his arm, he was dissolved by his internal breath, and more importantly, the energy chasing him behind him disappeared, which shows that the Aquarius Dao Chief did not dare to use two hearts under his desperate efforts, retract his strength, and fight with all his strength, so he looked embarrassed, but in fact it was not so serious.

The internal breath quickly dissipated the strength of the Aquarius Dao Chief, quickly adjusted his body shape in the air, and as soon as his back hit the wall, Liu Han flew towards the Aquarius Dao Master again.

"Wait!" shouted the Aquarius Dao Chief, moving two steps at the same time, Liu Han saw that he was about to pounce, and when he heard the words, he flashed in the air, and the wind blew a whirlwind on the ground and landed in the distance.

Liu Han looked at the Aquarius Dao Master vigilantly, exhaled the turbid breath heavily, and his internal breath moved his whole body in the blink of an eye.

"The Ninth Rank Grandmaster in his thirties is much stronger than I was back then. The Aquarius Daoist sighed softly and looked at Liu Han with appreciation.

"Senior, what do you mean by this?" Liu Han asked in a deep voice.

I was puzzled, so I tried it and asked Mr. Liu for forgiveness. The Aquarius Master was very calm and bowed down to apologize.

However, Liu Han noticed that his title had changed again, and he couldn't help but feel at ease in his heart, just now, at that moment, he almost used the Five Elements True Yuan and the magic weapon, but he felt that it was not right, so he took the risk and only used the dantian true qi and worldly means to deal with the enemy, and now it seems that the other party is still tempting.

Liu Han snorted lightly, knowing that he had made the right bet, and immediately, he had a strong curiosity, if he was in this room, at such a close distance, if he used the worldly exercises, would this great master be able to deal with it?

His expression fell in the eyes of the Aquarius Daoist, but the Aquarius Daoist would be mistaken, and he explained again: "A master of a high-grade grandmaster suddenly appeared on the rivers and lakes, and soon entered the palace and became a guest of the imperial court. ”

"Seniors think the same way?" Liu Han still maintained a high degree of vigilance, holding a long knife in his hand, ready to face the battle at any time, but he was greatly surprised in his heart, could it be that there was something dirty between this court and these sects.

The Aquarius Daoist was silent for a while, nodded, and Liu Leng smiled: "Now the Daoist can be tempted?"

The Aquarius Daoist didn't answer, he was silent and bent down slightly, Liu Han didn't say a word, and he was silent for a while: "I don't want there to be a next time, I am an official of the imperial court, even if I am not your opponent, but the imperial court can deal with Taiping Dao." ”

The threat of these words was very obvious, but the Aquarius Daoist did not answer, sitting on the futon with his eyes slightly closed.

Liu Han took a deep breath, walked to leave, but retracted his steps, saluted the treasure bottle chief, and then opened the door and walked out, when he arrived outside the door, suddenly a breeze and his arm was cold, and when he looked down, he saw that the long sleeves of his right arm turned into pieces of cloth and scattered on the ground.

"Your Excellency!"

The guards were shocked, they were at the door, but they didn't hear the sound in the house at all, and they couldn't help but be shocked when they saw Liu Han's situation at this moment.

"It's okay, let's go. ”

After taking two steps, Liu Han looked back at the door, which was quietly closed, he took a deep breath and strode away with the guard.

After Liu Han walked out of the Taoist temple, the door opened, the Aquarius Taoist opened his eyes, and an old man in a green cloth robe came in, this old man also did not wear a crown, his hair was pure white, his hair was wrapped in cloth, his face was ruddy, his beard was as white as snow as his hair, and the green clothes were a little white, looking very old, and there was a small gourd hanging from his waist.

After the old man came in, he didn't say a word, just sat opposite the head of the Aquarius, the two looked at each other for a while, and the old man asked, "Not him?"

The chief of the Aquarius did not answer, but his brows slowly condensed together, and the old man did not urge, but took off the gourd, pulled out the lid, raised his head and took a small sip, and the fragrance of wine permeated the room.
