Great Xuanwu Sheng Chapter 133

Chapter 133 Mystery

The first time Chen Mu saw the old man, he understood why the true successor of Tianjian Sect suddenly glanced in his direction. Maybe it wasn't his gaze that attracted the other man's attention, but the man behind him who looked wretched. An old Taoist priest with an unattractive appearance.

 The words "He is in charge of Xuanting and Miaoyan Tianji" have already shown his identity. He comes from Xuanji Pavilion, one of the four sects.

Although he didn't know what the old Taoist priest in front of him was capable of, he really didn't want to have anything to do with such a sect that was so nagging. Even among the four major sects, the one he least wanted to meet was the people from Xuanji Pavilion.

 “Sorry, not interested.”

Chen Mu replied with alert eyes and pulled Xu Hongyu away.

 “Don't go, don't go.”

The old Taoist grinned, revealing a pair of leaky yellow teeth, and said: "The old Taoist will close the stall soon. Today is the last hexagram for you, so I won't collect your hexagram gold. How about it?"

  “Doesn't count.”

Chen Mu refused.

This time it was the old Taoist priest's turn to blow his beard and stare, and said: "The old Taoist fortune teller always looks at people. If you don't have a destiny, it's hard to get a fortune for a fortune. It's rare to think that you are destined, but you don't want to let the old Taoist tell the fortune. No, no, no..."

While talking.

The old Taoist lay down directly in front of Chen Mu and started rolling in the street, acting like a rogue.

Xiao He and Xu Hongyu were dumbfounded. After all, the old Taoist priest was the one who directly took the name of Xuanji Pavilion. He could actually roll around on the spot like a rogue. I'm afraid he didn't come from somewhere, but who in this world would dare to pretend to be a disciple of Xuanji Pavilion? .

 Chen Mu's head is getting bigger.

Although there is no threatening aura from the old Taoist priest, as if he is really an ordinary old man, but the other party can use the name of Xuanji Pavilion, and may have attracted the attention of the true disciple of Tianjian Sect just now, there is no way it is. Ordinary people, so the more this happens, the more difficult it is to estimate, and they have no idea where it comes from.

Seeing that the old Taoist priest looked like he had to rely on it until the end, Chen Mu finally sighed and said:

 “Okay, let's count it as a hexagram.”

 In fact, being in Yu County, he would have to deal with people from Xuanji Pavilion sooner or later, but he really didn't want to come into contact with the old Taoist priest in front of him who had no idea of ​​his origins.

When the old Taoist priest heard this, he immediately beamed with joy, jumped up from the ground, ran back to his stall, picked up a stack of tortoise shell copper coins, and said with expectant eyes: "Does this layman want to predict the future, or destiny? "

Chen Mu pulled the confused Xu Hongyu to him and said, "Just calculate Hongyu's fate for me."

"ah?"

 The old Taoist priest's face suddenly fell.

But in the end, he reluctantly picked up the tortoise shell copper coin and threw it away. When it fell, it scattered and formed a strange pattern.

 “Indescribably expensive…”

 The old Taoist priest said weakly.

The old Taoist priest's behavior just now also attracted some people's attention. Now when they heard the old Taoist priest's prediction, some people immediately pointed and laughed:

　　"What does this mean? I can also see that this person is extremely valuable."

“Let me just say, these fortune tellers are all charlatans. If you really want to tell fortunes, you should go to the Xuanji Pavilion in the west. They are from a well-known family, and their fortune telling is really good.”

 Hear these comments.

 The old Taoist priest suddenly became furious and said: "The old Taoist is from Xuanji Pavilion!"

"Hush, I think you should run away quickly and pretend to be Xuanji Pavilion. If they find out, I'm afraid it will be a disaster." The people nearby hissed at the old Taoist priest.

If you hadn't seen the old Taoist priest rolling around on the ground, maybe some people would really believe it. But in the scene just now, how could anyone believe that the old Taoist priest was from Xuanji Pavilion? It was simply a fantasy, and he was more like a charlatan.

 “What's the matter of pretending to be Xuanji Pavilion! I still need to pretend...”

 The old Taoist priest became furious and started arguing with others.

There was chaos nearby, and soon the city guards from the inner city came after hearing the news. However, when they heard that Xuanji Pavilion was involved, they immediately did not dare to act rashly, and sent someone to report to Xuanji Pavilion.

When the people from Xuanji Pavilion appeared in the street, the old Taoist priest finally stopped arguing. His eyes were spinning in circles. He suddenly picked up the stall next to him and slipped through several city guards, slipping directly into the narrow alley beside him. .

"snort!"

“You dare to pretend to be my disciple of Xuanji Pavilion and want to escape?”

The men and horses in the Xuanji Pavilion behind saw the scene here from a distance. Someone immediately snorted and quickly chased after them and disappeared into the narrow alley.

 A few streets away.

 Chen Mu and Xu Hongyu, who were continuing to visit the market, heard the words of a Yu family attendant who came to report the situation. Chen Mu was also stunned, and Xu Hongyu was also a little shocked.

“That old Taoist priest just now was really a fake Xuanji Pavilion?!”

 Xiaohe was a little shocked.

 Chen Mu couldn't help but scratch his head for a moment. He also had preconceptions. Could it be that the reaction of Tianjian Sect's true inheritance had nothing to do with the old Taoist priest, and that the old Taoist priest was really just a charlatan pretending to be Xuanji Pavilion?

But this is a bit too unbelievable. After all, this is an inner city.

 Chen Mu quickly shook his head and said: "Well, whether he is true or not, it has nothing to do with us. It doesn't matter if he is true. After all, the fortune-telling for Hongyu is extremely precious, and a divination is easy to sign."

Xu Hongyu blinked and looked at Chen Mu. She had no idea about being expensive. Originally, she was born in the Yu family, which was far more wealthy than ordinary families. Compared with these, she wanted to stay with Chen Mu more and stay longer. a little.

Xiaohe said with a smile on the side: "Actually, the calculation is quite accurate. The lady is indeed not short of wealth. I hope he calculated that the lady will live a hundred years... no, live a thousand years."

Xu Hongyu was a little amused when he heard Xiao He's words. She reached out and tapped Xiao He's nose and said, "What are you talking about? There is no one in the world who can live for a thousand years. Do you want me to be a monster?"

The life span of warriors is indeed longer than that of ordinary people. After entering the five internal organs realm, they can live for a hundred years. If they enter the seventh realm to cleanse their marrow, it is said that they can live for 150 years.

But even among the legends, those who have entered the eighth realm of martial arts, reached the level of blood exchange, and are respected as 'Martial Saints' by the world, have a lifespan of only two hundred years at most, and the only ones who can live for thousands of years are monsters. .

Chen Mu looked at Xu Hongyu and Xiao He and just smiled.

There are probably no people who can live for thousands of years. After all, if Emperor Taizu, who announced the founding of the country and pacified the world, could live to this day, then the world would not be in such troubled times, but these things are too far away after all. .

The sky is getting dark.

Chen Mu and Xu Hongyu quickly returned to the Yu family's residence and disappeared into the streets and alleys of the Yu family's residence.

At about the same time, under the gloomy sky, a figure walked quickly along the streets in the southeast of the inner city. He was wearing a black cloak and his appearance was unreal. He soon arrived at a towering five-story building. Your Excellency.

Looked up and glanced at the plaque hanging in the pavilion.

 Xueyin Tower!

 At dusk, the three blood-colored fonts increasingly exuded wisps of evil spirit and the texture of blood, making people feel heart-stopping.

The man in the black cloak quickly averted his gaze and stepped into the Xueyin Building. The entire first floor was empty, with no one around. There was only an empty square table and a blood-red curtain standing in the middle of the square table.

 A dim candle was lit beside the square table, swaying gently.

 He walked to the table.

 The dim candlelight reflected the face under the cloak, with a hint of coldness. It was He Guangxun from the He family!

He Guangxun slowly sat down at the square table.

Almost at the same time he sat down, the blood-red curtain suddenly shook slightly, and then on the empty seat behind the originally empty space, a figure covered in blood quietly appeared and sat down.

 “Who to kill?”

　　The figure in blood-clothed voice spoke emotionlessly.

He Guangxun seemed to be coming here for the first time. His pupils shrank slightly at the sudden appearance of the man in blood, and a trace of fear flashed in the depths of his eyes, but then the fear in his eyes was replaced by coldness.

Not long ago, people who went to investigate the disappearance of He Guangzong and He Mingzhen came to report that they spent nearly a month forcibly digging out a small part of the collapsed mountain, and found the bodies of the He family and horses inside. It is also buried by the mountain, making it difficult to discern traces, but no matter what, this matter must be related to the Yu family.

　Today.

Every member of the Yu family is in hiding, and all the direct descendants have returned to their residences. Even if the He family wants to take revenge, it is difficult to find an opportunity. Destroying several properties of the Yu family outside is just a trivial matter and meaningless.

He Mingzhen is the most outstanding member of the fourth generation of the He family. Among the younger generation, he has the greatest possibility of entering the five internal organs realm. But now he dies halfway. If it had been put in the past, the entire Yu County would have been turned upside down. But now the situation in Yu County has changed, and we can no longer act as casually as in the past.

 “Yu family, Chen Mu.”

 He Guangxun spoke coldly.

Among the fourth generation of the Yu family, there is no more outstanding child than He Mingzhen, but Chen Mu and Xu Hongyu's marriage has been decided, and now they are also members of the Yu family. Moreover, they have realized the artistic conception at the Yi Jin level, and they are the most threatening person in the future. .

Since He Mingzhen is dead, the Yu family will not be able to live well. This wedding... might as well become a funeral.

The voice fell.

 The man in blood disappeared silently.

 When it appeared again, it was already a quarter of an hour later.

"Chen Mu, the white-robed guard of the Demon Slayer Division, the aunt of the Yu family in the inner city, and his marriage to Xu Hongyu, a direct descendant of the Yu family, has been decided. He has the artistic conception of Xunfeng, and his body of horizontal training, the state of Yijin...the silver pattern is 900,000 taels."

 He Guangxun frowned slightly.

expensive!

too expensive!

Nine hundred thousand taels of silver is not a small number for the He family. It is enough to train nearly a thousand elite swordsmen, among whom there are even more than ten or even dozens of swordsmen who can enter the Yijin realm.

"too expensive."

He Guangxun said in a deep voice.

The man in blood said calmly: "I won't bargain."

 The business of Xueyinlou seems simple, but in fact the process is also very complicated. It requires investigation of intelligence, and various evaluations in between, and finally a corresponding price is given according to the situation.

Chen Mu's own horizontally trained body and Yijin realm are nothing, and a single Xunfeng artistic conception is only so-so, but as a white-clothed guard of the Demon Slayer Division, he belongs to the sphere of influence of the Qixuan Sect, and the Xueyin Tower assassination The white-clothed guards of the Demon Slayer Division also have to pay some risks and prices. After all, the inspector is stationed in the inner city.

ˆ And.

Chen Mu has made a marriage agreement with the direct lineage of the Yu family, and now they all live in the residence of the Yu family. There is also a figure in the Yu family who was a deacon of the Qixuan Sect. Although he is old, he will also bring many risks to the assassination.

After all, assassinations cannot be seen in the light, so the Xueyin Tower has the saying "Blood Hidden without Traces". Killing is not just a simple killing. After the killing, all traces must be dealt with, so that people will disappear out of thin air and cannot be found. The origin makes it unclear whether he is missing or dead.

In fact, Xueyinlou is not willing to take on business involving sensitive offices such as the Demon Slayer Department and the Supervision Department. After all, it has just entered Yu County and barely maintains a certain tacit understanding with the Qixuan Sect. If it acts too unscrupulously, then They will inevitably be targeted and suppressed by Qixuan Sect. Sects such as Tianjian Hehuan will not stand on the same line as Xueyin Tower now, and they are even happy to see Qixuan and Xueyin fight against each other.
