Alienated Martial Arts.

"I've already thrown out all the people I could, but I haven't been able to find the conjoined monster that Mr. said."

In the backyard of Yuelai Inn, Liu Qingyuan was holding a teapot, lowering her head and carefully pouring the freshly brewed tea into a cup.

Opposite her, Wei Tao sat cross-legged, eyes half-opened and half-closed, "It's fine if you can't find it, maybe you can only wait for that thing to jump out by itself, and then there will be new clues."

"If it can't be hidden all the time, even if we send ten times more people, it will not be easy to find it."

Liu Qingyuan said, "However, it is difficult to hide this matter, so according to the usual practice, the subordinates have already reported the situation related to Moxianglou and the remnants of the Qinglian Demon Sect.

If the department attaches great importance to it, there should be someone specially assigned to deal with it. "

Wei Tao took a sip of the tea he had just poured, and nodded slowly, "That's it, I'm going back to the Taoist temple now, you should be careful here, and always pay attention to safety."

Coming out of the narrow alley, he looked up at the bright sunshine, and the bustling crowd around him suddenly felt as if he had been in another world.

It seemed that the series of battles last night were just a dream.

Now that I woke up, I returned to the real real world.

Only a box full of You Xuan Pills in his arms, and other things brought out from the underground space of that yard, have been proving to him that everything is true.

Returning to Qingfeng Temple, Wei Tao went straight into the Green Bamboo Garden.

After ordering others not to disturb him, he sealed himself in the practice room and unfolded two completely different pictures in front of him.

One is a visual record of keeping the spirit seal of the void.

The other is a catalog of washing the moon with densely distorted lines.

The two scrolls set off each other, as if they came alive at the same time.

On one side are various seal formulas that are slowly changing.

On the other side is a wild flurry of twisted lines.

Breaking away from the picture scroll, it quickly filled the entire field of vision.

Occupied almost all of his consciousness.

He seemed to have forgotten the passage of time.

He just sat cross-legged and didn't move, staring blankly at the two scrolls spread out in front of him, his eyes half-opened and half-closed, bloodshot inside.

The brows were a little red and raised outwards.

There seems to be something inside, like a chick that is about to hatch, ready to break out of its shell and come to this world.

After an unknown amount of time, Wei Tao suddenly came to his senses.

"How long have I been sitting here?"

He exhaled slowly, and first manifested the status bar into void.

Quickly find the interface of keeping the spirit seal.

Set your sights on it.

Name: Shouxu Lingyin.

Progress: [-] percent.

Realm: the initial state of Void Spirit.

Status: At its peak.

Description: After incorporating a new practice method, this exercise has evolved and improved.

"Whether one is consumed or not, the gold coin will improve the practice progress of keeping the spirit seal."

Wei Tao thought for a moment in silence, looking at the remaining nine gold coins.

I chose yes directly.

And put this gold coin into the Void Spirit Beginning Realm.

Swish!
The status bar blurred for a while, and the number of gold coins decreased by one.

Mysterious breath began to infuse the body.

The bright red between the eyebrows became more and more vivid, as if it was dotted with a piece of cinnabar.

Under the skin, the blood network became more condensed, and blood surged in the intersecting nodes, and some inexplicable cool breath faintly exuded from it.

When the change was over, Wei Tao continued to stack the gold coins on the Shouxu spirit seal without stopping.

In the dark practice room, he used all kinds of precious medicinal materials and pills to nourish his body, until he pushed this exercise to the point where he couldn't advance in one breath.

Finally, everything calmed down.

He slowly opened his eyes and silently looked at everything around him.

In an instant, the room glowed brightly, as if two stars were shining in the darkness.

Everything he wants to see is reflected in every detail.

After a while, Wei Tao turned to look inside.

The veins, blood network, acupoints, and nodes in the body are displayed in the mind one by one.

It's like being immersed in a complex and exquisite picture scroll.

The status bar quietly floated into the void.

The description of the spirit seal of keeping the void has also come to the end.

Name: Shouxu Lingyin.

Progress: 150%.

Realm: Void Spirit End Realm.

Status: The final stage of breaking the limit.

Description: After incorporating the new cultivation method, this exercise has been greatly improved.

Wei Tao closed his eyes and let out a breath of foul air slowly.

Although there are still two gold coins left.

But now, except for the Magic Elephant Mysterious Art and the Five-Fang Stupa, all other exercises that can be improved have reached the end of the impossible.

He turned on the inner vision again.

Carefully observe the slowly running Qi and blood main vein.

The two arms pass through the shoulders, which is the Qi and blood circulation of the red line fist and the red line.

The legs pass through the waist and hips, which is the main circulation of the mountain legs to grow lotuses step by step.

Then there is the Blood Moon Shuangsha Gong, which runs through the two midlines of Ren Du's two channels on the front chest, back and back, which can be regarded as the third and fourth blood circulation channels.

The fifth is that the eyebrows and heart acupoints are a little bright red, and the mysterious connection with other qi and blood circulation channels can be faintly perceived.

"The four main veins circulate separately, and the eyebrows, heart, and acupoints are connected to the Qi machine. This is the five rotations of Qi and blood."

Wei Tao fell into deep thought, "According to the plan I made before, the next thing to do is also the most difficult and dangerous step.

With the brow and heart acupoints as the core, the four main channels are completely opened up, and the internal circulation of each becomes a big cycle of the whole body. "

How to do it, he already had a vague idea.

But it still needs more in-depth thinking, deduction, and verification before we dare to take the final step of implementation.

Push open the heavy iron door of the practice room.

Wei Tao was surprised to find that it was a dark and silent rainy night outside.

He stretched and moved his body slowly, endured the torture of laughter that would ring in his ears from time to time, slowly went up to the balcony on the second floor, sat peacefully in the rain with a pot of tea, and quietly enjoyed a period of leisure after penance in the dark time.

It rained lightly all night.

It didn't stop completely until dawn.

For the first time, Wei Tao stepped out of the gate of the Green Bamboo Garden and walked along the sightseeing route.

The view of the breeze in the summer rain is like an ink painting scroll slowly unfolding in front of it.

There are pavilions, terraces and pavilions, and flowers bloom like brocades.

Small bridges, flowing water, and winding paths lead to seclusion.

Coupled with the majestic and majestic halls, there is a beautiful scenery everywhere.

At lunch time, Li Kun personally arranged a sumptuous banquet, which satiated his appetite after chewing medicinal pills for a long time.

Three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.

Li Kun glanced at Wei Tao, who seemed to have undergone obvious changes, lowered his head and picked up the teacup and drank slowly, "Junior Brother Wei mentioned before retreating to heal his wounds about the chaos in the Moxiang Tower, and the mountain gate has already given a clear reply."

"Oh?"

Wei Tao swallowed the food in his mouth, "What did you say over there?"

Li Kun sighed lowly and said, "Elder Lan and the elders will personally lead people down the mountain to investigate this matter. It seems that the mountain gate also smells that a storm is coming."

After a moment of silence, he continued, "In addition, it seems that the imperial court also sent a nobleman to Luoshui City, who also came here specifically for the matter of Moxiang Tower."

"A nobleman from the imperial court?"

Wei Tao frowned slightly, "It's normal for the imperial court to send someone down, but the word nobleman is not a title that ordinary officials can afford."

Li Kun smiled lightly, "Junior Brother Wei is right, his status is indeed valuable, it is said that he is also a relative of the emperor."

"Wait until I ask someone to inquire about the news, after all, when the other party arrives here, they will definitely find the junior brother to inquire about the situation.

If you can know who that person is and what kind of personality preference you have earlier, it will be easier to deal with it. "

Wei Tao nodded, and at the same time picked up the teacup, "Then I will trouble Senior Brother Li, replace the wine with tea, and Junior Brother will present you with a glass."

..............................

The patter of rain seemed endless.

The whole world is shrouded in a haze.

A carriage slowly drove out of Qingfengguan.

Go in the direction of Luoshui City.

It was Gan Liang who drove the car.

Ou Yinglian was also on the side to cooperate.

All the affairs of the golden sun farm are on the right track.

The people sent by the Taoist temple to take over are already in place.

The two of them hurried back, fearing that if they were one step late, they would be left there again, drowning in endless miscellaneous matters every day.

In the carriage, Wei Tao closed his eyes and rested his mind.

Stretch out a finger, touching the center of his brow from time to time.

The fingertips were lightly facing that spot of bright red, and there was a slight tingling like an electric shock.

Unknowingly, misty and illusory laughter sounded.

Overshadowed by the sound of the rain outside, it kept lingering in my ears.

He slowly opened his eyes and sighed lowly.

There are scarlet bloodshot eyes all over the eye sockets, and the existence of dark circles is clearly visible below. It can be seen that he has not had a good rest for a long time.

"Laughing during the day and laughing at night, almost endlessly."

Wei Tao took a sip of the still warm tea, with a gloomy expression on his face.

He really couldn't understand what kind of mentality Liu Qingyuan had, to be able to accompany this voice all the time, not only did he not fall into a mental breakdown, but he was actually a little happy.

If she can cultivate to the perfection of viscera, the internal and external are mixed together, and the state of endless life, after pushing the door of Xuangan, wouldn't she be able to go all the way smoothly, and be called the chosen child?
"My lord, Wu Yin is here."

Suddenly, Ganliang's old and hoarse voice sounded.

Wei Tao lifted the side curtain of the car and looked outside.

Wu Yin moved closer and said, "My lord, I'm following that girl named Xiao Lian. Apart from staying at home, she mainly went to these places these days..."

"Say it from the beginning, louder."

Disturbed by illusory laughter, Wei Tao sighed helplessly, "I can't hear what you're saying at all."

Wu Yin was startled for a moment, and immediately turned up the volume.

In the end, it was almost sticking to Wei Tao's ear and talking.

After hearing this, Wei Tao fell into deep thought, "You mean, apart from her own martial arts gym, she only went to some shops selling rouge and gouache, and she also tasted street food?"

Wu Yin nodded, "Yes, I have observed all the people she talked with. Except for the martial arts and medical centers, almost all of them are ordinary people, and none of them has the strength to transform Qi and blood."

"It's a bit strange."

Wei Tao exhaled slowly, and closed his eyes slightly, "Could it be that my feeling last time was wrong?"

"There shouldn't be any mistakes. After all, I observed her for the entire meal, and it wasn't just a passing glimpse."

Wu Yin didn't dare to disturb his thinking.

Then he followed and waited quietly on the side of the carriage.

Until Wei Tao recovered from his contemplation.

Wu Yin went on to say, "There is another situation, this subordinate thinks it is necessary to report to the adults.

That is, among the people Xiao Lian came into contact with, there seemed a little strange to have a hunched old man. "

"kindness!?"

Wei Tao narrowed his eyes suddenly, "What kind of old man is that?"

"A very hunchbacked old woman."

Wu Yin thought about it and said slowly, "She was wearing a somewhat dirty black robe, her back was bulging high, and she was very low.

Just yesterday, that girl Xiaolian went out to eat, and met this old man on the side of the street, and the two had a conversation of about three or five words.

Because of the distance, the subordinates didn't know what they said. "

"The old man sweeping the floor, the hunchbacked woman..."

Wei Tao's heart moved, and his expression instantly became calm, "Did they find you?"

"should not."

Seeing the boss's reaction like this, Wu Yin felt a little nervous.

He thought about it carefully, but still shook his head, "Because the lord has ordered his subordinates not to get too close, every time I observe secretly, I stay far away from that girl Xiaolian.

Moreover, they usually use the surrounding crowd as a cover, and they left after saying a few words at that time, so they should not have noticed the existence of their subordinates. "

"You did a good job, and the information was delivered in a timely manner. I will go to see that royal family member in the near future. With the information you have found out, I will have more confidence to use to deal with it."

Wei Tao fully opened the side curtain of the carriage, and stretched out an arm.

Wu Yin was immediately flattered, and took the initiative to lean forward and let the deacon pat her shoulder lightly.

Wei Tao was silent for a moment, "Don't go to Xiaolian's place, it may be dangerous.

Let the people under Liu Qingyuan do this kind of thing, they should be more professional. "

The wheels moved forward slowly, leaving two long marks on the official dirt road.

From time to time, shouts from the river bank can be heard. The laborers are working hard to earn enough food for themselves and their families.

"Old Gan, slow down."

Wei Tao closed the curtains, took advantage of the silence of the laughter, and quickly fell asleep to make up for the internal friction of the spirit these days.

Gan Liang immediately tightened the reins to control the speed of the carriage.

It can't walk faster than ordinary people.

Time passed little by little.

Wei Tao woke up from his sleep, feeling that this sleep was extraordinarily sweet.

Even the mental fatigue has recovered a lot because of this.

He opened his eyes, and suddenly found that the sky outside had turned dark.

The fine raindrops hit the roof of the carriage, making a rustling sound.

"What time is it now?"

He asked, his voice inexplicably hoarse and dry.

"I saw that my husband was sleeping soundly, so I didn't let them bother me."

Liu Qingyuan's voice sounded slowly, "It's just entered the night, sir, I slept for almost four hours."

"Get ready for something to eat, I'm a little hungry."

Wei Tao got off the carriage, only to find that the carriage was parked in the backyard of Yuelai Inn, and the horses pulling the carriage had also been taken away, and sent to the stables to be fed and rested.

Liu Qingyuan smiled and said, "I've already prepared a table of noodles, and I'm waiting for Mr. to come and taste them after he wakes up."

A quarter of an hour later.

Wei Tao sat in front of the table and began to eliminate all kinds of dishes that were full of dishes.

Liu Qingyuan was at the side, pouring wine and serving dishes, while talking softly and non-stop.

"Elder Lanhe of Yuanyi Road, although his subordinates have not met before, but according to the information obtained by Si Li, he is a kind-hearted elder.

Li Guanzhu of Qingfengguan was not wrong about this point, and the situation described was more detailed than the company's information. "

After explaining all the information about Lanhe, Liu Qingyuan suddenly changed the subject.

"As for the nobleman who is about to come to Luoshui City, I thought he would be a Zhong Cheng or a regular attendant from the Inspection Department.

However, she never expected that it would be Lu Zhihe, a woman, who would come to take charge of the Moxianglou case. "

Wei Tao turned his head and glanced at her, "The news I got from Guanzhu Li is that Lu Zhihe is a relative of Empress Lu of this dynasty.

He studied under Xuanwu Dao as a teacher, and then he first joined the Xunli Division and then the Wujian Division. He has arrested and killed warriors on the red list several times.

Meticulous and rigorous, jealous of evil, he is quite a powerful and resourceful person.

Have you ever had contact with her, and what do you think of these evaluations. "

Liu Qingyuan sighed faintly, "I had contact with her for a period of time during the joint mission of the two divisions of patrol, supervision and military affairs, how to describe her, I can only say that what Li Guan talked about was just superficial. "

"Meticulous and rigorous. In other words, there is no room for a grain of sand in this person's eyes. If she accidentally catches the handle or misses it, the consequences will be quite serious."

"As for jealousy, whether it's her subordinates or warriors in the Jianghu, all those who oppose her are evil and have hatred against her."

"Why do women make things difficult for women?"

Wei Tao was slightly taken aback, "According to what you said, does this woman have even one advantage?"

"Sir, you are joking. Naturally, there are advantages."

Liu Qingyuan helped her pour a glass of medicinal wine, "Her greatest advantage is that she judges the situation. She will never easily provoke those who cannot be provoked easily. But for those who can be provoked, things are not so easy to say.

However, this person is a foreign relative and a relative of the Queen's line, and he was born in Xuanwu Dao, so there are not many people who can make her feel that she can't afford to offend. "

"So if you come into contact with her, sir, you must be more careful. There is nothing wrong with being cautious."

"Where you can follow her, it's best to follow her first, and deal with people first."

Liu Qingyuan thought for a while, "Also, before Lu Zhihe comes, there will definitely be a head catcher from the six doors asking about the situation.

The husband feels that when the time comes, what should be said and what should not be said, and how to round it up, needs to be carefully considered to avoid any omissions. "

"You reminded me in time, I know."

Wei Tao nodded slightly, picked up the medicinal wine and drank it down in one gulp.
