After the immortal disappeared

"I'm not alone either."

He is never alone.

The power of Lingxu City and the gods is enough to make any individual feel ashamed of his own smallness and humbleness. Without the backing of Panlong City, he would not have dared to do what he did now.

Panlong City is one of his pillars. Even though it is invisible and intangible, it allows him to move forward firmly, free from worry and hesitation.

Isn’t that what faith is?

The mirror was dissatisfied: "Your statement is a bit far-fetched."

"Then think about it again, Fang Canran can't make a living anywhere, but he has to come to Lingxu City?" He Lingchuan said with a smile, "Everyone in the world yearns for Lingxu City, but he shouldn't. For Shao Jian's descendants, The risks here are far greater than the opportunities. You can tell by looking at me. If I have no plans, I must stay as far away from Lingxu City and the God of Heaven as possible."

This is a spiritual distance and an instinctive choice.

"You mean, the organization behind him sent him to be stationed in Lingxu City?"

"Is there any identity that is more convenient for gathering information and carrying out operations than the business manager of a famous family?" He Lingchuan raised his chin in the distance, "In this huge capital city of seven million people, there are probably countless foreign forces lurking in it. Too many to count.”

The lights under the mountain are brighter than the stars in the sky.

"Also, when he caught me with the Earth Immortal Rope, the first thing he asked me was which organization I was from." He Lingchuan said with a smile, "In other words, he subconsciously thought that I was also working for a certain organization."

This is Lingxu City, the heart of the empire. Who would be crazy enough to come here and wreak havoc single-handedly?

hehe.

The mirror sighed: "That's right."

"I seem to be able to do everything in Lingxu City, but in fact I am very weak. I have to do many things myself, which is really difficult." Tongxinwei always stared at him, making him restrain his actions. If there are reliable accomplices to work together, the difficulty of his plan should be much reduced.

The mirror reminded: "Even if Fang Canran really belongs to another force, he may not be willing to help you."

"It is necessary to contact the enemy of the enemy." No matter how difficult the thing is, we must do it step by step.

At this moment, a dark shadow passed across the sky, following the light and flying towards the top of the tower.

He Lingchuan whistled, and the black shadow folded its wings and landed on his arm.

The goshawk is finally back.

The timing was so perfect, He Lingchuan was overjoyed.

After a long journey, it kept panting with its mouth open.

He Lingchuan took out a wine bowl from his arms, took out a water bag and poured some water, and Goshawk drank deeply.

When it slowed down, He Lingchuan asked: "How?"

"You're right. That guy is indeed still alive." Goshawk took out a roll of lacquer-sealed documents from the storage ring on his talons and gave him, "This is the account book certificate of Yangshui County."

"Thank you for your hard work, go and rest." He Lingchuan stroked its back feathers, "You have made a great contribution, and I will ask His Highness for the credit tomorrow."

He took the sealed document and turned it over and over again, pondering for a long time.

Jing Jing was worried: "Is there something wrong with this document?"

"The paperwork is fine, but something is wrong with this matter."

"Huh?" It doesn't want to ask "why" anymore!

"Since Xi Yunhe dares to let me investigate, this person should be alive." He Lingchuan murmured, "There is something wrong with him being alive."

The mirror was confused: "Is it bad for us?"

He Lingchuan smiled: "It has nothing to do with us."

…

The next day, He Lingchuan slipped out of Pianxiang Villa again.

The donkey cart sent by Gibbon Lao Ge was already waiting in the back mountain. When He Lingchuan got on the cart, he rushed to Dunyuan.

Fang Canran had been prepared for it. Not long after the servants came in to make the announcement, he rushed out and handed the two storage bracelets to He Lingchuan with his own hands: "Three hundred kilograms of Shaoling ore are here. The purity is very high. I am the recipient of the gift." I'll like it; I also have five soul-shaking bombs, and the heart-piercing mirror hasn't been repaired yet, so I'll give them to you in a few days."

He Lingchuan reached in with his spiritual will to verify that it was correct, and immediately clasped his fists: "Thank you, Brother Fang."

He didn't know much about ores, but this batch of Shaoling ore was shiny and looked to be of good quality. What he spent more than 7,000 taels on was coarse ore rather than concentrated ore, and Fang Canran upgraded the quality for him without increasing the price.

Fang Canran smiled: "Be careful on the road."

He Lingchuan thanked him and left. He did not go directly north, but rode a donkey cart around the main city.

The little spider told him that there was an eyeliner behind him.

Tongxinwei had been dumped by him, and he had just gone to Dunyuan again. Well, it was probably Fang Canran who sent him to follow him, wanting to see if he went straight to Xu Mountain.

The two of them must have a contract and cannot harm each other. But for Fang Canran, the behavior of "stalking" is a means to enhance understanding and is not included in the terms.

He Lingchuan was not in a hurry, got out of the car and entered a perfume store.

There are naked grown men everywhere here, and they have to hold their cards before entering, which is very inconvenient, so the people watching are only waiting at the front and back doors.

Little did he know that the wait lasted for two hours.

They didn't know it, so they went in and searched, and sure enough, He Lingchuan was missing.

These people had no choice but to report back to Fang Canran.

After Fang Canran heard about it, he didn't show any anger and just waved them away.

Of course, He Lingchuan had arrived at his destination by now.

This is the third time he has climbed Xushan Mountain. The scenery along the way has not changed much. It is bustling with tourists. It is estimated that there are at least tens of thousands of people.

This kind of tourist resort is only differentiated between peak season and more peak season.

He Lingchuan did not stop on the way and went straight to the destination Tianji Peak.

Just like last time, the road up to the peak was crowded with people, and the long queue could only advance seven feet in a quarter of an hour. The huge cave was even more crowded, and the deep pool with tree roots was surrounded by water.

Two guards stood on the edge of the pool, one on the left and one on the right, with expressionless eyes, stopping all uncivilized behavior.

The queues were tiring and boring, and the tourists were chatting away. He Lingchuan's ears were so good that he passively listened to a lot of gossip. One side said that the dead man in the family had secretly gone out to gamble again, while the other side snickered that the little lady next door ran away with someone two days ago.

But he didn't expect that what he heard the most was the gossip of Imperial Master Qingyang!

There seemed to be a tour group of 20 or 30 people behind him. He Lingchuan heard several guests chattering. There was a rumor that Imperial Master Qingyang was having an affair with his most famous disciple!

"Think about it, how many young talents have the Qing Palace absorbed over the past hundred years? Qingyang Imperial Master turned over the cards and asked for one of them to serve her?"

"She is almost two hundred years old and still has good looks. Maybe she is good at tonic."

After talking about it, a group of people laughed and laughed.

Someone on the side couldn't bear to hear it and interrupted: "Just keep your mouth shut, you haven't seen it in person!"

"Didn't Imperial Master Qingyang admit it himself? She said that the abandoned disciple who was kicked out was the one who hunted monsters and obtained pearls in the Eternal Medicine Case. He had harbored unfavorable thoughts towards her in the past!"

"Yes, this guy surnamed Mai betrayed the school because he couldn't get what she asked for." Another guest said with a smile, "The style of the family is like this, which shows what is going on in the Qing Palace."

The man before was refuted and had nothing to say.

"Among the wealthy families in Lingxu City, which family has no romance or quirks? I heard that Liu Changshi in the port specially hired a swarm of bee demons. When his concubine was serving him or his guests, he would let the bee demon sting him. concubine."

Everyone was shocked and asked for details, and the topic changed.

He Lingchuan scratched his head. No wonder Qing Gong used so many tricks to divert the attention of the residents of Lingxu City. It turned out that there were scandals about Imperial Master Qingyang's affairs spreading everywhere.

This kind of celebrity scandal spreads quickly and lasts for a long time. There are countless ways to add fuel and jealousy in the middle, and as soon as it comes out, it will attack people in three ways.

Very eye-catching.

He Lingchuan did not expect that Master Shuangye would actually use such a trick.

The two great masters have been fighting each other for more than a hundred years. When Shuangye master finally got the chance to win, he did everything he could to win.

When you and I are fighting, all the noble integrity and self-esteem are thrown aside.

After finally lining up into the cave, He Lingchuan did not touch the roots of the trees, but squeezed to the position directly in front of the pool, stood still, looked back at the entrance of the cave, and stretched out his finger.

In the crowded cave, no one paid any attention to this action.

But He Lingchuan clearly remembered that before Venerable Wood Spirit passed away, he pointed forward at this position and said:

I'll wait for him here.

Who is this "him"? Is it Master Dongli or He Lingchuan?

"Here", where exactly do you mean?

Therefore, He Lingchuan had to go to the peak in person and measure it with his own eyes.

He looked in the direction of his finger, um, right outside the cave? What's there?

He Lingchuan lifted his legs and walked out of the cave.

He was moving against the crowd, and it was very difficult to squeeze in. However, after exiting the cave, it suddenly became clear, because there was almost no path to the right, only a narrow stone ridge looming in the grass, five feet long.

Below is the abyss.

This kind of path has never been repaired and is commonly known as the back of a crucian carp. It has high and low levels, is narrow and difficult to navigate, and the harsh mountain wind can even blow people to the bottom of the valley. Normal tourists would not worry about their own safety.

Seeing him standing in front of the crucian carp, someone kindly called out: "Who is that? Don't stand over there, it's too dangerous..."

Before he finished speaking, He Lingchuan jumped onto the stone ridge in two steps and jumped over this heavy natural hazard with his hands and feet.

Going further in, the tall and rugged rocks block the view of Tianji Peak tourists from here.

After just a few dozen steps, the surroundings suddenly became quiet, with only the howling mountain wind.

A natural "crucian carp back" completely isolates him from the noisy scenic spots and bustling tourists.

There is no road behind the huge rock, and the frost and snow have covered the rock. If you walk on it, you will step up and down, and you will get injured if you are not careful.

He Lingchuan jumped onto the huge rock to find the direction.

Looking from a distance, the tree is even more spectacular.

And looking down from his current position, he could see that the thick roots of the Daoist tree actually extended all the way down, winding among the rocks of the entire mountain peak, and even looming at the bottom of the stone ridge he just jumped over.

He still underestimated this tree. The Wenwen tree on Tianji Peak was more than just a "tree bag hole" wonder? It actually wraps the entire mountain peak with ridiculously developed tree roots, from top to bottom!

Even where he is standing now is within the scope of Tianji Peak, and the roots of the Questioning Tree also extend here!
