Chapter 49 Datang
To be honest, after judging that Yan Hongxia might have lost her soul due to a "strange" encounter while traveling at night, Director Huang had given up hope that she could return safely.
After all, people with "supernatural powers" are trapped in the "uncanny realm", and only one person can escape by themselves.
Instead of hoping that Yan Hongxia can find a "way to survive", it is more reliable to pray that a master with magical powers will pass by.
He didn't say all these words last night just to take care of his apprentice's feelings.
After this night, I think Silly Disciple also accepted the reality, so Hall Master Huang came over to discuss the aftermath with him.
——Yan Hongxia is a seventh-grade Taoist official and a member of the Li family. She lost her soul inexplicably. If she cannot clear up the relationship, she will be in great trouble.
But who would have thought that just as Guanzhu Huang was brewing a good relationship, he discovered that a "miracle" had really occurred, and Yan Hongxia's soul had returned intact!
Fortunately, I didn't talk too much last night... Master Huang let go of his hand to diagnose Yan Hongxia's pulse, and while he was thankful, he said after careful consideration:
"Girl Hongxia is fine... but her soul seems to have been infected by a very high-quality power, and there is a gap between her and her body, so she has not woken up..."
Although Master Huang's magic power has been abolished, his soul has already undergone transformation, so he can discover things that Zhao Chen cannot detect yet.
He glanced at his apprentice and comforted him with a smile: "But you don't have to worry too much. This girl is a lucky girl. She can even break out of a dangerous place like the 'Uncanny Realm'. Sooner or later, some rootless pollution will be absorbed by her."
Mana cleans up.
"According to my estimation, she will wake up on her own within a week...
"It might be faster if you ask other magic experts or even masters of magical powers for help after you get to Yumen!"
At this point, he paused, then changed the topic and said meaningfully: "But I don't recommend you do that."
Hearing this, Zhao Chen's heart moved and he had some guesses, but on the surface he still asked "puzzled": "Why?"
Huang Xianjun smoothed his beard and said solemnly: "Since Hongxia girl took the risk to travel at night, she probably discovered some amazing secret or encountered a danger that even a magic monk like her could not solve...
"No matter which one it is, it shows that she has been deeply trapped in the 'whirlpool' at this time. Exposing her whereabouts rashly is not only irresponsible to her, but also brings great danger to us.
"It's better to wait until she wakes up and let her decide where to go for help... Before that, don't let others know that she is hiding with you.
"Fortunately, you acted cautiously last night and even I didn't notice it when you moved her back to your cabin."
At the end of the sentence, Huang Xianjun looked at his apprentice with a smile, apparently guessing that he might have a magic weapon with "invisibility" ability, but did not reveal it.
After all, the apprentice seems to have a good relationship with Yan Hongxia. Who knows how many good things that girl has given him.
Zhao Chen knew the meaning of the master's eyes, but he had no intention of explaining it. He let the master think about it and said: "You mean...the Li family or the Taoist government office may not be trustworthy?
”
In fact, he didn't want to hand over Yan Hongxia so quickly. It wasn't that he couldn't bear the benefits of "double cultivation", but that Yan Hongxia's magic power had been transformed under the warmth and nourishment of his "Five Immortals Zhongling Zhenqi". If this
If there are monks from the Li family investigating from time to time, clues will inevitably be discovered.
I'm afraid that even myself will be exposed by then.
Although he has the idea of "double cultivation" with the Li family monks, he does not want to be a "public mana quality enhancer."
"No, no, no, I didn't say that..." Huang Xianjun quickly waved his hand, "I mean, we don't know how popular Hongxia girl is in the Li family or the Taoist Office. If we meet someone who has a problem with her,
Wouldn't it be harmful to her if someone handled it?
"And that way, we might also be in trouble.
"If we want to investigate clearly first, it may take several days before Hongxia girl wakes up by herself."
Master Huang’s analysis is very clear and logical, but in the final analysis there is still one sentence: He is afraid of trouble!
After all, if they send an unconscious Taoist official back like this, both the Li family and the Taoist official's office will force them to stay for questioning.
And God knows why Yan Hongxia escaped late at night. How unfair would it be if the people behind the scenes thought that they knew something because of this and silenced her?
Anyway, Yan Hongxia can't "sleep" for long, so it's better to wait until she wakes up.
Master Huang's idea coincided with Zhao Chen's. He had more secrets, so he naturally didn't want to get into trouble, so he agreed after pretending to think about it.
After daybreak, as the crew members and martial arts disciples who had disembarked last night to have fun returned one after another, the "Bingquan" also pulled anchor amidst the sound of the whistle and sailed towards Yumen County.
About half an hour later, a black demonic wind blew through.
It first flew several times in the clouds over Jinjia County, and then fell into the western district of the county, transforming into a tall man covered in black robes.
——Due to the strong sunlight in the Yumen area, there are many people who wrap themselves tightly in robes, so dressing like this does not look eye-catching.
This tall man is naturally the so-called "Tiger" of the "Four Evils Hall". He followed the black wind here just after dawn.
"The breath has completely disappeared here...
"Yan Hongxia really encountered something 'strange', right? After all, I left her favorite aura of 'strange' on her body. She may encounter something 'strange' even during the day, let alone when she is on the road at night!
"But to be on the safe side, we still have to send a message to the 'Xiong' and 'Crocodile' who are working in the county and ask them to send people to keep an eye on the Taoist Office and the Li family residence in the past few days.
"In addition, I just want them to report how much they have recovered from the relic items that Xiangzi sold."
With the plan in mind, "Tiger" once again set up the black demonic wind and soared into the sky without any cover-up. Anyway, he couldn't hide it from anyone who was interested in it when he was exploring in the air. After all, his black wind was too conspicuous in the blue sky and daylight.
In the county, some knowledgeable monks and warriors saw this scene and couldn't help but murmured:
"The ground black wind spreads across the desert, pouring down the vast sea and pouring sand.
"It's the tenth-placed Lord of Black Wind Castle on the Jade Sect's list of outstanding figures, 'Kangsha' Xie Bodu."
……
On the deck of the "Bingquan", Zhao Chen's sword light was swimming around, shuttling between a dozen strong men. At first, he was quite able to do so with ease, but he escaped completely after hitting the target.
But after the dozen or so people formed a formation and compressed his space for movement, it was no longer possible to use his hands and feet, and he was even caught accidentally and lost his combat effectiveness.
"I lost." After Zhao Chen put away his sword, he cupped his fists at Uncle Zhan who was commanding these dozen strong men.
They were obviously accompanying Zhao Chen in actual combat training.
"No, if it was a real life-and-death battle, Master, you would have killed several people to break through the siege before we encircled it... It's only because we lost." Zhao Zhan shook his head and said seriously.
Zhao Chen smiled and said: "If it were a life and death battle, I would have been beaten to a pulp by several rounds of volleys by now."
These people are well-trained and cooperate with each other tacitly. Even though their spiritual senses were reflected all over their body, they didn't find a chance to defeat them one by one. They had obviously practiced some kind of formation against Zhenqi warriors.
By sparring with them, my body and sword skills improved rapidly.
I just don’t know if fully displaying the magical power of the "Five Immortals' Spiritual Qi" will have an impact on these people?
Maybe it can be done for the first time...
While Zhao Chen was thinking, Master Huang, who had been giving casual instructions at the side, came over and looked him up and down for a long time before he said: "Looking at your response just now, your soul power is probably not low... Your spiritual sense can
Is it reflected outside the body?"
"Master, his eyes are as sharp as a torch!" Zhao Chen nodded and did not hide anything. Mainly because he couldn't hide it, so he said directly, "This disciple has opened up the Twelve Sutras when he achieves his true energy."
"Ha, I guess that's the case..." Master Huang winked at him, smiled teasingly, and said, "What kind of foundation-building spiritual object did that girl Hongxia give you... Could it be that she and you are practicing together?
Did she transfer her true energy to you?"
In a sense, you seem to have guessed it right... Xianggui thought so, but on the surface Zhao Chen still showed a helpless expression and said: "Master, stop joking."
"Okay, I won't say it... Anyway, I don't want to interfere with your young people's affairs. I just want to learn from the experience of those who have been there. I advise you to be more frank. After all, what is the saying, 'Don't wait for the flowers to be wasted and break the branches.'"
'Well!" Master Huang joked, but at the same time he remembered something and had a look of regret on his face.
But at this time, Zhao Chen no longer paid attention to the possible "story" of the master. All his attention was attracted by the sentence "Don't wait until the flowers are empty and the branches will be broken."
This is a poem from the world in his previous life, how could it be spread here?
In addition, the master comes from the "Yuwang Sect", and the characters in this world are similar to the Chinese characters in his previous life... Zhao Chen originally had many guesses about this, and now he is even more suspicious, so he tentatively asked: "Master, you
Do you know about Datang?"
"Of course I know. Wasn't what I just recited Tang poetry?" Master Huang glanced at him sideways and warned, "The Tang Dynasty is the name of the ancient dynasty, but about the Tang Dynasty, it doesn't hurt to know something about Tang Zhuangzong before, but after that
Don’t delve into it...
"Of course, you can't reach it either."
Emperor Zhuangzong of the Tang Dynasty... Li Cunxu? As a graduate student in archeology, this name immediately flashed through Zhao Chen's mind, and he couldn't help but curiously asked: "Master, it's just history, why can't I get in touch with it?"
"The history books of our world, from "Spring and Autumn", "Historical Records", "Hanshu"... to the last "Old Book of Tang" are all placed in libraries everywhere and can be borrowed at will. I, the founder of the 'Yuwang Sect', am grateful.
"Historical Records" records the merits of King Yu and the creation of the 'Dharma Body of King Yu'... But the history after Zhuangzong, whether it was 10,000 years or 20,000 to 30,000 years, only has three paragraphs, and the rest is completely unknown
."
"Which three sentences?"
"In the second year of Tongguang, the sky changed in Jiashen, evil spirits first appeared in the world, and all living beings were in ruins.
"In the early days of the Taichu Dynasty, the Taoist king Kunlun preached the Taoism, and the brothers Zhuang Zong cultivated magical powers and continued in the Tang Dynasty.
