I'm the one running the game

Xu Yi had been tracking in Jiangyin Prefecture from dawn to dusk, but he did not find any trace.

However, his behavior caught the attention of those who were interested.

"Did the prince of Zhong invite you?" Look, he was stopped on the road.

"That's right. I heard that the Taoist priest seemed to be tracking something. If you don't mind, the Prince of Zhong's Mansion can lend a hand." The steward of the Prince of Zhong hurriedly said.

I don't know why Gao Zheng was furious today, but after learning about Xu Yi's situation, his anger subsided a lot.

Xu Yi thought about it and didn't have much idea about Prince Zhong. As a time traveler, he didn't have much interest in the so-called princes and royal families.

He has practiced Taoism, so how could he care about the secular dynasty.

But now he thought again, if he could use the power of the prince of Zhong, he might be able to find this drought demon.

"Lead the way." Xu Yi did not refuse.

Under the leadership of the steward, Gao Zheng entered the Prince of Zhong's Mansion and waited for a long time.

As soon as Xu Yi arrived, he went to greet him warmly.

"Master, you have come here after a long journey. I have prepared a banquet to welcome you. Please come to the table." Gao Zheng served wine and food directly this time, and did not allow Xu Yi to refuse.

Xu Yi was not very concerned. Compared with other ascetics who practiced hard, he liked beautiful women and delicious food.

The point is that practicing Taoism is for enjoyment. If he does not find beautiful women, eat delicious food, or pretend to be cool, then what is the point of practicing hard.

Of course, he did not practice hard. He was able to make such rapid progress thanks to the help of the sign-in system.

However, he also understood the priorities and knew that if he wanted to enjoy better, he needed to have a higher level of cultivation.

Therefore, after entering the table, he told the story of Hanba and drought.

Gao Zheng's face turned pale when he heard this.

He had just solved the Pillow Fairy last night, but why did another Hanba come this morning?

Did Jiangyin Prefecture have bad luck this year or something? Why are there so many disasters?

"Don't worry, Taoist priest. I will give orders immediately and send people to inquire. Once there is news, I will inform you immediately." Gao Zheng had to cooperate.

The Pillow Fairy will kill people. Although the drought brought by the drought demon is not so harmful, once it takes shape, it will be a waste of money and labor.

When there is a problem with the fiefdom of Jiangyin Prefecture, the expenditure of Prince Zhong's Mansion will also be reduced. He will inevitably be scolded.

More importantly, this kind of impact is not just one or two days. It will take several years to recover.

Moreover, locusts will appear when there is drought. When there is a drought, there will be a locust plague. It is true that his ability is a little poor, but he has managed these days anyway, and he knows almost all the common sense he should know.

"Hurry up, at most two days, the drought will come." Xu Yi reminded again.

Gao Zheng's face turned black this time. It is not so easy to find this drought demon in the huge Jiangyin Prefecture in two days.

"Don't worry, Taoist priest, I will let people do their best."

It is difficult, but there is no way. His own fiefdom is here, so he can only bite the bullet.

As for not doing it, that is definitely not possible.

After this exchange, Gao Zheng set his sights on Xu Yi again, wanting to obtain the method of entering the Tao from Xu Yi.

Due to Gao Zheng's help to him, Xu Yi really couldn't refuse his request, and finally could only give him a copy of "Lieyang Xuanming Sutra".

In fact, Gao Zheng never thought that he would get it so easily.

I thought he would hit a wall like Lu Xingshi, but he didn't expect to get the method of entering the Tao from Xu Yi as soon as he opened his mouth.

Lu Xingshi had contacted with Taoists, so if he asked him to pass on the method, he had to look at his character and morality. Otherwise, if you give the other party a method, and the other party becomes a scourge, you will also have to bear the consequences.

This is not a blacksmith selling a knife, but the fault of the father for not teaching the son and the laziness of the teacher for not teaching strictly.

You can pass on the method, but you have to investigate it well, after all, it is a matter of great importance.

Xu Yi had never contacted with Taoists and didn't know about this matter at all, which led him to use his own judgment as a benchmark.

In his eyes, it was just a method to enter the Dao, not a big deal, just treat it as a reward for the other party.

"Master, you are generous!" Gao Zheng swept away his original depression, and even the anger of being scolded by Lu Xingshi before.

With this method to enter the Dao, Gao Zheng felt that he would definitely be able to rise straight up.

In this comparison, Lu Xingshi's behavior fell into Gao Zheng's eyes, which was really stingy.

This is true. Lu Xingshi did not give Gao Zheng the method because he was afraid of being implicated, and secondly, he was indeed stingy, and there was no way to wash it off.

But being generous recklessly would cause trouble. Lu Xingshi could benefit the world with a little bit of money, but he would never harm himself.

"To enter the Dao with this method, it costs a lot of family wealth, and the prince needs to prepare more resources." Xu Yi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. It was just a method, what was it.

The copy of the "Flame Mysterious Sutra" he gave Gao Zheng was of the lower middle type in the inheritance of the Pure Yang Taiyi God. He was reluctant to give it out even if it was of a higher level.

"Don't worry, Taoist priest. My father is Prince Zhong. Although he may not be rich enough to rival a country, he can still provide me with enough money for cultivation." Gao Zheng said with a clear mind.

Look, this is the real Youdao Quanzhen. Not only does it give you access to the Dao, but it also reminds you to save more money.

Gao Zheng said this, but he actually understood one thing in his heart, that is, Prince Zhong's Mansion could not fully support his cultivation.

But if you want money and food, you don't necessarily need to ask Prince Zhong's Mansion for it.

He is not in the capital now, but in Jiangyin Mansion, the fiefdom of Prince Zhong. When the time comes, he will be able to cut off some of it and plunder some more, which will definitely be enough.

Before he could practice, he was already thinking about how to line his own pockets and plunder the people's wealth and wealth.

In Gao Zheng's eyes, he is the heir apparent, so what's wrong with taking some? This is his father's fiefdom, which is equivalent to taking something from his own family. What's wrong with that?

"That's good. It's difficult to enter the Tao, and the prince needs more encouragement." Xu Yi actually didn't know that Gao Zheng was the eighth son of Prince Zhong, and thought he was the eldest son who could inherit the position of prince.

Normally, this is true. After all, he can take charge of all matters in the fiefdom and can even mobilize a large number of people. He must be the eldest son.

It's just that he didn't think that Prince Zhong was in a special situation, which led to his error in judgment.

"I sincerely follow the Taoist Master's instructions." Gao Zheng looked serious, and then asked: "Taoist Master, if there is something unclear about the Dharma these days, can you come and ask the Taoist Master for advice?"

"This... of course is possible, but I have to stay in Jiangyin Mansion for a few days to rest after I find Hanbao." Xu Yi actually wanted to refuse, but when he thought that if he refused, it would affect the other party's enthusiasm to find Hanbao, It's him who's at a loss.

Even if the others catch the Hanbao, they still have to find a way to refine it, so it might be a good idea to stay here.

Gao Zheng's expression was ecstatic. He was simply a good man. Compared with him, Lu Xingshi was completely different.

"Thank you, Taoist Priest, for your help." At this time, he thanked him first. He could see that Xu Yi was indeed not as thick-skinned as Lu Xingshi. Anyway, Lu Xingshi could accept the compliment without changing his expression and then go about business.

This kind of insufficiency made him very angry, but this time he finally met someone who was easy to talk to.

"Don't worry, it's important to find Hanbao. Your Majesty, look..." Xu Yi began to urge.

"Don't worry, Taoist Master, someone's here." After saying that, Gao Zheng called the steward: "Take my talisman, go to the Jiangyin Mansion Office, and mobilize all parties. I want them to find Hanbao's traces before sunset tomorrow."

The steward respectfully took the talisman that Gao Zheng took from his waist and left quickly.

"With the power of Prince Zhong's Mansion in Jiangyin Mansion, Taoist Master can rest assured." Gao Zheng was still very confident in his own power.

"Prince Zhong's Mansion is indeed a vast one." Xu Yi praised, and then ate fine wine and food, enjoyed singing and dancing, looking contented.

It wasn't until the banquet was over that he stood up and prepared to leave.

"Taoist Master, please don't leave today. Let's take a rest at the house for now." Gao Zheng could see that compared to Lu Xingshi, who was simple-minded and stoic, Xu Yi could be said to be full of wine, sex, and wealth.

"This... forget it, it's not that easy to track down Han Bao with just the people from Jiangyin Mansion."

"I'd better go and help you." Xu Yi thought for a while and still refused. The banquet alone was delayed for nearly two hours. If it continued, I was afraid that a whole night would be wasted.

However, Gao Zheng's face turned solemn: "Is it because I didn't entertain you well? That made the Taoist priest want to leave?"

"Or is it that the chief looks down on me and thinks what I did today is unfair?"

Hearing this, Xu Yi couldn't help but reveal a wry smile, touched his nose with a hint of embarrassment and said, "Your Majesty, you are worrying too much, it's just me..."

"That's all, just listen to the prince and stay here for one night."

After Xu Yi agreed, a smile appeared on Gao Zheng's face: "Taoist Master is really good-tempered."

"The singing and dancing will continue, and the food and wine will not stop."

"But if Taoist Master is tired, you can let Chunhong and Liulu wait for you to rest." An ambiguous smile appeared on Gao Zheng's face.

Xu Yi was not only moved, but also moved his heart.

Gao Zheng saw what the other party was thinking at a glance, and immediately clapped his hands, and two women with beautiful faces and slim bodies came to Xu Yi's side to act coquettishly.

Half pushing and half taking Xu Yi out of the table.

After the people left, the smile on Gao Zheng's face gradually faded.

He was thinking about how to get more secrets from Xu Yi. Naturally, he wouldn't just want one.

What he can give must not be an important method, so he wants better, and he not only wants to enter Taoism to practice, but also needs to practice corresponding spells.

The "Fire Flame Xuan Ming Sutra" is indeed enough, but he can't stop his greed, so he not only wants better ones, but also more.

The main reason is that it is rare to meet someone who is easy to deal with. If you miss it, you will regret it for the rest of your life.

"Before that, we still have to find Hanbao." Gao Zheng got up and broke up the banquet, and went to deal with the matter urgently.

Cultivating Taoism requires a lot of money and food, so Jiangyin Mansion is very important to him. Without Jiangyin Mansion, he is equivalent to cutting off the resources channels needed for Taoism.
