At what age are you still being a traditional monster?

"Master Daoist, you are really amazing, you have already figured this out!"

The Taoist had a profound expression on his face, he smiled without saying a word.

But I mentioned the classic line in my heart: This is just the simplest reasoning, my friend.

Sun Ergou respectfully presented a few copper coins and said, "These are gifts of thanks."

Lin Xu took the copper coins and said, "Poverty Dao will give you another hexagram."

"Master, please speak."

"If you don't go home again, there will be bloodshed."

Sun Ergou's face was pale, and he hurriedly pulled away, his mother-in-law could really do it!

Before leaving, Sun Ergou asked loudly: "By the way, I don't know the long name yet."

"You can call me a road half-immortal."

When it is blocked, why is this Taoist called such a name? It is impossible to block someone's way.

When he got home, Sun Ergou saw his mother-in-law squatting in front of the house with a kitchen knife, and his legs and feet felt weak.

"Damn it, where did you fool around!"

Sun Ergou hurriedly told what happened today.

"Is that Taoist really so divine?"

"really!"

Sun Ergou's daughter-in-law thought for a while, and said: "Our younger brother is working in the palace, and he has trouble recently, why don't we ask him to find that Taoist?"

Sun Ergou also remembered this, and said: "Yes, I will write to him immediately!"

The palace was heavily guarded, and even if it was a letter from the inner guard, it would take half a day to review it, so when Sun San received the letter from his brother and sister-in-law, it was already the time of the next day.

Sun San read the letter and hurried to find his officer.

The officer thought for a while, and said: "Even the priests of the Black Lotus Sect can't do anything about it. A wild Taoist priest who tells fortunes on the street is called a half-immortal. Are you sure he can do it?"

Sun Sandao: "my brother has always been simple, he is so sure of the Taoist's ability in the letter, he must be superior to that Taoist, the theft case has been shelved for a long time, now it's good that His Majesty ignores the matter, no one is going to hold me accountable Wait, when His Majesty returns to manage the government, I'm afraid he will be prosecuted for a crime of dereliction of duty."

"Forget it, you go out of the palace today and get that Taoist to try."

Chapter 51 Theft in the Palace

Lin Xu also pretended to be a fortune teller on the street for three whole days. During these three days, many people came to him for fortune telling, and it was considered effective.

But in fact Lin Xu is not good at this, most of the efficacies are accomplished by Lin Xu relying on some spells, and he has other plans in mind.

That is to fight the magic stick with the magic stick.

The Black Lotus True Immortal can now allow the Black Lotus Sect to occupy its current position in the Roulai Kingdom, thanks to the great epidemic that was cured in Roulai five years ago.

But you don't need to think about it, you know, it must be the real black lotus thief calling for the thief to cause the great epidemic by himself.

This series of manipulations reminded Lin Xu of the magic wands he had seen in his previous life, and the methods were pretty much the same, and he also heard that the emperor of the Roulai Kingdom believed in such tricks.

Therefore, Lin Xu also prepared to play a magic stick, and compete with that black lotus immortal!

Lin Xu was doing fortune-telling on the street as usual, when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a person, he already had a plan in his mind, but he pretended not to care and continued talking and laughing with the person in front of him.

That person walked steadily, showing his martial arts skills. In addition, this person has a murderous look. His identity in this capital is either a soldier or an inner guard of the palace.

Sure enough, the man sat down in front of Lin Xu, and said in a deep voice, "I heard that you are good at finding objects?"

Lin Xu pretended to be deep and said: "The thing you are looking for is not easy to find."

The man raised his eyebrows abruptly, then lowered them, and asked coldly, "How do you say that?"

Lin Xu smiled lightly and said: "You must know that the more expensive the item is, the harder it is to find it. If you are just looking for an ordinary bracelet or the like, you can see it at a glance, but if it is a precious item, it is not easy. "

"What does the preacher mean, as if he already knows where I come from?"

"Your Excellency has a faint dragon aura, presumably it is influenced by the people around you. Who can make Your Excellency stay close to him day and night?" There was something in Lin Xu's words.

The man stopped talking, just got up silently, and left.

Lin Xu didn't stop him, instead he continued to do his own thing and tell fortunes to others.

When it was approaching dusk, Lin Xu collected the flag and left the rented stall with his shoulders on his shoulders, as if he was going home after closing the stall.

When they reached the corner of the street, a person was already waiting for Lin Xu there.

Lin Xu rolled his eyes and looked at it, then cupped his hands and said with a smile, "Your Excellency, we meet again."

The person who came said bluntly: "Please follow me, Taoist priest."

Lin Xu nodded and followed.

All the way through a bald "forest", this is the altar being built. Its scale is so large that the wood used as a pillar is lost like a forest, surrounding the palace on the left and on the right.

A lot of soldiers were arranged to patrol under the altar day and night outside the palace, not for anything else, but to maintain order, there were also tents set up one after another under the altar.

Those elderly people who were moved from all over the country were all placed here.

Lin Xu's eyes walked past these common people, they were not too young, and living in such a tent should not be enough, but the mighty-looking soldiers just dispelled their thoughts of complaining.

What did you say when you moved them here?

Yes, enjoy yourself.

A fire of ignorance rose in Lin Xu's heart, he carefully looked at the layout of the altar, and calculated the position in his mind, he understood what True Immortal Black Lotus wanted to do.

But now is not the time to attack.

The man showed his badge, and Lin Xu followed him into the palace, and came to a courtyard with three large characters "Secretary of Internal Guard" written on the entrance of the courtyard.

In the center of the inner guards hall stood a tall man in black armor.

"Adult, people have brought."

"Very good, Sun San, you go down first."

"Yes!" Sun San took his life and exited gently.

The man walked down, looked at Lin Xu, and asked, "It is said that what is your name, a half-immortal?"

Lin Xu raised his hand and said: "Be a half-immortal on the road."

"Since he claims to be a half-immortal, he must have real abilities."

Lin Xu smiled and said, "Then it depends on what your lord is asking for?"

"It's easy to say, by the way, I haven't reported my name yet, my name is Zhang."

"Poverty Ling Xuzi has met Mr. Zhang."

Mr. Zhang thought for a while, and said: "Master Ling Xu, the duty of the inner guards is not only to protect His Majesty's safety, but also to be responsible for the security of the palace. Recently, something has caused me a headache, but I have no way to deal with it. I would like to ask the Taoist priest Help me figure it out."

"Master Zhang, please speak clearly."

"There has never been a shortage of thieves and thieves in the palace. Usually, it is usually caused by little eunuchs and maids who are greedy for profit. It is not difficult to do it, but recently there have been frequent thefts, and the place where they happened is precisely the royal treasure house that I am in charge of. It's giving me a headache."

Lin Xu said: "Your Excellency is the commander of the internal guards. Any clues about this kind of theft should not be hidden from your eyes."

Master Zhang narrowed his eyes and said, "But what if there are no traces left?"

Lin Xu said: "How could this be?"

Mr. Zhang said: "There is only one door for entering and exiting the royal treasure house, and outside the door there are fifteen guards guarding me. All of them are martial arts masters. There is a lock on the door, and the key is only by your majesty's side. The eunuchs who come to count the treasure house every day body, even I can’t open the door, dare to ask the chief, how about stealing things from here without anyone noticing?”

Lin Xu said bluntly: "With all due respect, this is definitely not something human can do."

"That's what I mean too."

Lin Xu pretended to be suddenly enlightened, and said, "Your Excellency suspects evildoers."

Mr. Zhang said with a smile: "I sent someone to inquire about the Taoist priest, and I know that the Taoist priest is not an ordinary fortune-telling Taoist priest, and there are extraordinary things about him, so I ask the Taoist priest for help."

But Lin Xu hesitated and said: "Su Wen has the Black Lotus Sect in your country, and the Taoists of the Black Lotus Sect are also people of Taoism. Why did you make a big detour to invite me, a wild Taoist priest?"

Lord Zhang rolled his eyes, and said: "The Taoist priests of the Black Lotus Sect are all focused on cultivation, and they usually come to the palace to find the national teacher. How dare I disturb you wantonly?"

Lin Xu smiled without saying a word.

But in his heart, he looked at Master Zhang in front of him with admiration.

It doesn't have to be done by human beings, but it doesn't have to be evildoers, people with Taoism and guilds can also do it, although those Taoist priests of the Black Lotus Sect must be monsters...

But although Master Zhang didn't know about it, he had already suspected the group of priests who often went in and out of the palace.

It's just that it's not easy to testify directly.

Today is to use Lin Xu's hands to expose the thief's cheating feet. If the emperor wants to punish the Black Lotus Sect afterwards, it will be his credit.

If you are really a good person, you can get things done without losing money.

If he wants to be an enemy of the Black Lotus Sect, Lin Xu is naturally willing, but now is not the time.

Lin Xu thought for a while and asked, "My lord, is that thief still committing crimes?"

Master Zhang nodded and said: "Exactly, even if I strengthen the guards, I still let him succeed."

There is no need to strengthen the guards, as long as the treasure house is opened and ambushed, the thief has already been taken away. It is Mr. Zhang who is afraid of arresting the Black Lotus Sect, so there is no room for change.

Presumably, that thief was out of his mind, didn't know the truth, and thought that he had succeeded repeatedly because of his clever means, so he continued to steal again and again.

So, Lin Xu said: "That must have been done by a monster, my lord, I have a plan."

Master Zhang rejoiced and said, "Tell me quickly."

Lin Xu said directly: "Just lie in ambush in the treasury tonight, and when the thief strikes, he can be captured."

Master Zhang thought for a while, then clapped his hands and said, "Oh, why didn't I think of this idea! It's still wise for the Taoist priest to do as the Taoist priest said, and catch the thief tonight!"

Lin Xu said: "Don't worry, Pindao will definitely catch that monster tonight!"

The word "monster" is a bit heavy.

Chapter 52 The Rat

The night was dark and the wind was high, just as the moon and stars were rare, under the moonlight, the Roulai Palace looked resplendent and resplendent.

It was the time when the patrol of the imperial palace was handing over. At this time, there was no personnel coming and going outside the imperial treasure house, but there was a strange existence under the silence.

Something was flowing under the palace, flowing down the mud covered with bluestone bricks towards the treasure house.

The movement of this movement is very small, if it is not a person with extreme sensitivity, it cannot be detected.

Therefore, none of the inner guards patrolling with lanterns at night noticed any abnormalities under their feet, and they just walked back and forth in a normal manner.

Just like that, without anyone noticing, without opening the door, the anomaly had slipped into the treasure house.

In the treasure house, in a corner where others would not easily notice the abnormality, a floor tile slowly loosened, floated up gently, and was thrown aside.

There was a big hole under the floor tile, and a group of black shadows squeezed out of the hole.

To prevent the treasure house from leaking, there is naturally no light at all, but this is not a problem to the black shadow. I can see that the eyeballs of the black shadow are glowing, and it can clearly see what treasures are in the treasure house. .

"Squeak."

It screamed excitedly, thinking what kind of baby would it be better to have today?

Glass cup?No, already took one yesterday.

No, I don’t know one of the calligraphy posts of the great Confucianists of the former dynasty, so what do I use them for!

The royal sword passed down from generation to generation?No, it's too heavy.

Picking and picking, deliberating, walking around.

Well chosen!

"You are the one!"

It stretched out its claws, picked up a string of pearls, and picked up a piece of emerald with its mouth, happily going back to the cave.

At this time, more than a dozen torches were lit, and the dark treasure house was instantly illuminated.

Its real body is also exposed to everyone without reservation.

Sun Sanyan almost didn't cry out when he saw it.
