Chapter 63 Wutong Garden

As the night deepened, the entire Tailing Southwest Square became lively. For Wutong Garden, this was just the beginning of the day.

In the black night, the red lanterns turned into large patches of black and red, which looked like dried blood.

Qi Xuansu went to the South City not only to take a detour, but also changed his clothes. At this time, Qi Xuansu was not much different from the guests who came to the academy just from the clothes.

People in the Taoist sect, no matter what their real family background is, should still be simple on the surface, not too ostentatious and gorgeous. However, those who can come to a first-class academy like Wutong Garden are either rich or noble, so it is naturally impossible for them to dress simply. Qi Xuansu's outfit cost him ninety-three Taiping coins, which is rounded to one hundred Taiping coins, making his already poor family even worse. Under the premise that all official expenses were reimbursed, only eight hundred Taiping coins were left.

However, Qi Xuansu felt that as long as he could settle this grudge, let alone one hundred Taiping coins, even one thousand Taiping coins would be worth it. As for the ten thousand Taiping money, forget it. Qi Xuansu felt that Monk Yanxiu was not worth so much money.

Qi Xuansu originally wanted to buy a "Dragon Eye Armor Nine" in case of emergency. However, considering that the target was too big, if it was not handled properly, people would find traces of "Dragon Eye Armor Nine" on Yanxiu's body, and find out that he had just bought "Dragon Eye Armor Nine" recently, which would undoubtedly be a confession, so he gave up.

Qi Xuansu hid in the dark and observed for a moment, then took out the "white fox face" mask that had not been used for a long time from the Xumi object and covered his face.

In fact, the safest way is for Qi Xuansu to change into a woman's dress, and then use the "white fox face" mask with a woman's face. It can't be said to be seamless, but it is the safest method. Not only can it surprise Monk Yanxiu, but also when it is traced afterwards, it can greatly clear the suspicion and mislead others. However, Qi Xuansu is not an assassin who will do anything to achieve his goal. He is also a conservative person at heart, so he rejected this safest way and retreated to the second best, pretending to be an old man.

Although the face of this old man had appeared in Jiangling Mansion, with the extermination of the Yuan family, the only person who knew about it was General Feng from the "Heavenly Court". Not to mention that General Feng had only seen the face of this old man and did not know Qi Xuansu's identity. Even if he knew, the words of a secret society demon were not reliable.

As for the rest of the people, Zhang Yuelu and Pei Xiaolou were all his own people.

Qi Xuansu was in a dark alley without lights at this time. The ordinary houses on both sides of the alley also belonged to the property of Wutong Garden. Some of the servants of the courtyard lived here, mainly because they were close to the courtyard and convenient to travel. At this time, they all went to work, so there was naturally no one here.

Not long after, three bright sky lanterns slowly rose, from right to left, the first sky lantern had the word "Wu", the second sky lantern had the word "Tong", and the third sky lantern had the word "Yuan". Because the sky lanterns have words on all four sides, they can be seen clearly no matter which direction you look from.

After Qi Xuansu confirmed that it was correct, he left the alley where he was hiding and walked towards Wutong Garden.

Wutong Garden covers a large area. Although it cannot compare to the Jade Emperor Palace, which occupies an entire block, it is comparable to a duke's mansion, covering an area of ​​more than 100 acres. Therefore, there are multiple entrances and exits, and it is not necessary to go through the main gate. The gate chosen by Qi Xuansu is relatively remote, leading directly to each courtyard. Only the guests who have been beauties in Wutong Garden often go through this gate, so no one is seen for a long time.

The turtle slave guarding the door saw Qi Xuansu coming alone, and hurried forward. He felt that the old man was unfamiliar, and just as he was about to ask, he happened to meet Qi Xuansu's eyes.

For a moment, the turtle slave's eyes were dull, and he fell into a trance.

This is the "chaos god" of the witch, which can affect the minds of others, be used to charm and control others, and can also be used to soothe emotions. Wu Luo is very good at this kind of magic. At the peak, he can manipulate millions of people. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the best in this way.

Because it is a magic, there is no need to practice deliberately. When the realm is reached, it can be mastered naturally.

As for why the witches and shamans have such magical powers, it is reasonable. If you want to attract believers, it is not enough to just draw pie in the sky with words or small inducements. Showing miracles is nothing. After all, other gods can also call the wind and rain. Why should I believe you? Therefore, the witches and shamans have to use some semi-forced means.

If they use the array to bless, they can "bewitch" believers on a large scale. However, just like the alchemists' improper behavior in dreams, Taoism strictly prohibits such behavior. Once discovered, they will be severely punished.

Qi Xuansu ordered: "You didn't see anything. No one came in or out during this period of time. Then you will wake up after ten breaths and remember nothing. Everything is the same as before."

"Yes, I... didn't... see... anything..." The turtle slave repeated Qi Xuansu's words slowly like a puppet.

Qi Xuansu walked straight into the door.

After ten breaths, the turtle slave woke up and looked around. There was no one in sight, just like usual.

The turtle slave yawned.

Qi Xuansu was in Wutong Garden for the first time and was not familiar with the terrain, but this did not bother him. He only had to keep looking up to confirm the position of the "Tong" sky lantern above, and then go straight all the way. If he encountered a wall, he would climb over it. With his skills, it was not difficult to avoid being discovered. If it really didn't work, he could use "Luan Shen" to clear the way.

It was the beginning of the Hai hour, which was 21 o'clock in the Western time.

It was the busiest time in the academy.

Even though this area is considered a relatively secluded area in Wutong Garden, you can still hear the sound of stringed instruments and the laughter of men and women. Some impatient guests have even started to get down to business. Those intermittent sounds are obviously not loud, but they are very penetrating and drill straight into people's ears.

Qi Xuansu was unmoved and did not have any distractions.

When he was doing business, he was always very focused and not disturbed by external things. This was also the key to his survival in the cruel world.

At the first quarter of the first hour of the twelfth lunar month, Qi Xuansu had already arrived outside the courtyard where Monk Yanxiu lived. Looking up, the "Tong" sky lantern was almost hanging above his head, and he had to look up to see it.

Although Li Qingnu controlled Wutong Garden, he could not leave too much trace, so he could only buy Qi Xuansu half an hour.

Qi Xuansu waved his hand, and two invisible sword qi shot out one after another. The first sword qi cut off the colorful rope used to fix the sky lantern, and the second sword qi shot down the sky lantern.

The sky lantern did not fall vertically, but fluttered like a meteor and fell obliquely to other courtyards in the distance.

Although Qi Xuansu did not set a specific signal with Li Qingnu in advance because of the unclear situation, he could not let him set off fireworks, which would be too conspicuous, but he believed that Li Qingnu, who was already prepared, would definitely understand, because this was the "Tong" sky lantern that Li Qingnu had mentioned.

Many people saw this scene and rushed to the place where the sky lantern fell.

After all, there are mostly wooden buildings here, which can easily cause a fire.

Qi Xuansu believed that Li Qingnu would also be "alarmed" and come to the scene in person, and then she could legitimately and reasonably dispatch people to find out the cause, and then intentionally or unintentionally miss the residence of Monk Yanxiu to give Qi Xuansu time.

After Qi Xuansu witnessed the sky lantern falling to the ground, he walked slowly towards the gate of the courtyard.

There were still some servants and maids in the courtyard. After all, it was unrealistic to evacuate all the people, and it would easily arouse Yanxiu's suspicion.

Qi Xuansu's response was to use "chaos gods" to drive them away, and at the same time let them remember nothing afterwards.

Now Qi Xuansu feels more and more that the acquired exiled immortals are much more powerful than the innate exiled immortals in the heavenly stage. At least Zhang Yuelu does not have this kind of magic, so he can only learn, while he does not need to learn at all.

Of course, if Zhang Yuelu has enough energy, then the upper limit should be higher, because the biggest advantage of the exiled immortals is that the sea is vast and the rivers are tolerant. No matter what kind of inherited magical skills, they can learn, learn quickly, and there are no conflicts and hidden dangers. After all, the true essence can be transformed into all things with Tai Chi, while the acquired exiled immortals use thousands of machines to return to the origin. One is extremely complicated and the other is extremely simple.

In short, the innate exiled immortals are a bit like the method of the Xuanmen orthodox way, which is gradual and full of stamina. The acquired exiled immortals are a bit like the method of the side door, which is unconventional and exerts strength in the early stage.

You can try it quickly. 】

Each has its advantages and disadvantages, and the same goal is achieved by different paths.

As soon as Qi Xuansu walked to the door of the bedroom, he heard a voice from inside: "Who is it?"

It was the voice of Yanxiu, the thief bald man. Only a year had passed, but Qi Xuansu remembered it clearly.

Because the "white fox face" mask can also change the voice, Qi Xuansu was not afraid of revealing his identity, and said directly: "An old friend is visiting."

As soon as the voice fell, the two doors opened automatically. The room was warm and the red candles were burning.

There was a screen opposite the door, and Yanxiu's voice came from behind the screen: "The monk doesn't seem to know you."

Qi Xuansu's mouth curled up: "Master, you are really forgetful. I'll remind you, the little Qin Wang, Xie Qiuniang, and Hua Jianyi."

This was what Li Qingnu told him. It is said that these three people once intercepted and killed Monk Yanxiu, but Yanxiu still ran away.

Yanxiu was silent for a moment, and then his voice became a little more cold: "Qingping Society."

Qi Xuansu said: "It seems that the nobleman has remembered that you dared to show up last time when I let you run away. You are so bold. Do you really not take our Qingping Society seriously?"

The screen between the two of them shattered with a bang.

There was a big brocade bed with two women on it. Their black hair was half loose, their clothes were half undressed, and they were all white. It was really a big spring scene.

In the middle of this spring scene, Monk Yanxiu sat cross-legged, letting the two beauties lie on him, with a holy and compassionate look on his face.

"You are really haunting, and you actually chased all the way here." Monk Yanxiu was not panicked, "But this is the Imperial Capital, and you rats can't see the light."

Qi Xuansu was indifferent, just said: "Monk, I'll give you one last chance. Hand over the 'Xuanyu' and forget about it. If you don't hand it over, even if you hide in Yujing, we can find you."
