Alienated Martial Arts.

Chapter 258 The Mansion
It rained continuously for several days.

Later, under the freezing of the howling north wind, the raindrops have turned into numerous snowflakes.

The whole world is shrouded in a vast expanse of whiteness.

After the wind stopped and the snow stopped, the long-lost sunlight shone through the clouds, coating the silver-covered earth with a layer of light gold, and it looked like a beautiful scenery on a sunny day and snow scene.

People who had been bored at home for several days came out one after another, and the street suddenly returned to its former hustle and bustle. All kinds of noisy sounds mixed together, showing the bustling and lively atmosphere of the world.

Wei Tao walked on the street, sniffing all kinds of aromas from the roadside restaurants, but his brows were tightly frowned.

At this moment, the profound sense of delusion came again.

The tangy scent that can trigger appetite in ordinary people's perception has turned into an irritating fishy smell in his place.

Even the favorite dishes in the past have lost their original taste when they are eaten. It is not an exaggeration to describe them as tasteless, and what was supposed to be an enjoyment often suddenly turns into a torture.

Behind him, three figures in hoods and cloaks followed closely.

In addition, there are more than a dozen men who are full of vigor, far or near, secretly scanning around from time to time, not letting go of any approaching figure.

Not long after, Wei Tao walked through an alley and stopped in front of a quiet and secluded courtyard.

"Mr. has finally arrived, and my subordinates have been waiting here for a long time."

The courtyard door opened quietly, and Liu Qingyuan's slightly thin face appeared in front of her eyes.

"Are you waiting at the door, or did you know in advance that I'm coming?" Wei Tao pushed the door open and asked casually.

"How can this concubine have the ability to predict the whereabouts of Mr.?"

Liu Qingyuan smiled faintly, "Naturally, after receiving the summons, I first prepared a table for my husband to welcome him, and then I sat quietly in the courtyard and waited for my husband's arrival."

After she finished speaking, she looked behind Wei Tao, bowed her knees slightly, and saluted, "Shaoqing Liu Qingyuan, Director of the Luoshui Tour, has seen the three Highnesses."

"Sister Qingyuan doesn't need to be too polite."

Wu Qingxuan stretched out her hand to help her up, "I have to trouble Sister Qingyuan again this time, and I still have a lot of regrets in my heart."

The two chatted for a while, Liu Qingyuan led Wu Qingxuan and Wu Qingxuan to the side room to change and rest, and then returned to the courtyard.

A bird that was pecking at the corner of the wall fluttered its wings and flew up to the treetops at this moment.

Wei Tao withdrew his gaze and looked at Liu Qingyuan, "Have you found any news about Yu Changshi through the intelligence channel of the Inspection Department?"

"Not yet." Liu Qingyuan sighed, a gloomy look flashed across his face.

"There is no news now, so that is good news." Wei Tao didn't say much, turned around and closed the courtyard door.

Liu Qingyuan glanced outside, "Didn't you say that Elder Wan and Elder Chong came over together, why didn't you see the two old men?"

"They went to the Qingfeng Temple and asked Li Guanzhu to drink tea and reminisce about the old days, and they would not come here until they left."

While Wei Tao was talking, he had already entered the main room, and when he saw the array of delicacies, he couldn't help but frowned again, and sighed secretly.

Liu Qingyuan's eyes flickered, thoughtful, "I have been thinking about whether my master's cultivation level has improved again. Now that I see a little bit of knowledge, I know that my guess is correct. My husband has opened the door. Stepped into the mysterious level."

"I wanted to wait for a while longer, but unfortunately the sky didn't fulfill my wish, so I had no choice but to push the boat forward and take a step forward."

Wei Tao sat down at the table, "Because I have already reached the realm of mystical senses, the Taoist master directly entrusted me with the task of escorting them back to the capital, and also let me observe all kinds of things in the world, taste the world's fireworks, and accumulate well. Get a hold of your thoughts."

There was a slight click.

Liu Qingyuan took a sealed iron box, put it on the table and gently opened it.

She said slowly, "When Mr. came over last time, because he was surrounded by Taoists from various sects and stayed for a short time, his subordinates did not have the opportunity to take out the things they searched and collected a while ago."

Wei Tao took a look into the box, his eyes could not help but focus slightly.

Inside lay quietly a row of scale coins unique to the radish tribe, and there were as many as nine of them after counting.

"Where did you find these purple gold scale coins?"

He exhaled lightly, and took all the purple gold scale coins into his hands.

Liu Qingyuan said, "The subordinates searched secretly according to the catalog given by Mr., and found nothing for a long time, but a gang leader later offered these purple gold scale coins.

The person also said that there were more originally, but the others have been lost, and only the last nine are left because they were preserved after being placed in the incense hall furnace of the old house. "

Wei Tao asked, "Did he say where he got these coins?"

"That person's family was originally a merchant of spices and tea. It was secretly exchanged with those villagers from the mountains of Mozhou a long time ago. It was said that the elders of the family believed that these things were treasures for worship in the village, but they turned out to be useless. A lot of money and goods were cheated."

"Are they still in the tea business, and do they still have contact with the Luocha tribe deep in the mountains of Mozhou?"

Liu Qingyuan shook his head, "That family stopped doing business a long time ago. Since the imperial court banned the trade route with Beihuang, they sold the business shop and settled down in Qizhou."

Wei Tao hid his hands in his sleeves, caressing the smooth scales.

The illusory status bar quietly manifested in front of him.

The next moment, there was a crisp sound of ding ding dong dong, jumping happily in consciousness.

After absorbing all the scale coins, the gold coins in the status bar reached fourteen, which is not a small sum.

The kettle on the stove hummed softly, and steam rose up.

Liu Qingyuan took the boiled water, brewed a pot of new tea, and said in a soft voice, "The matter of Prince Yan and Prince Cheng has been known to me for the past few days, and the battle inside and outside the palace should soon reach a fever pitch. stage.

However, Wei Jueyan's death dealt a heavy blow to Prince Yan. At least in a short period of time, he would no longer be able to send warriors above the level of a master to intercept and kill him, so you don't have to worry too much about the safety on the road. "

"I'm not worried about danger on the road, I'm just a little afraid of trouble."

After taking a sip of the tea brought by Liu Qingyuan, Wei Tao continued to ask, "Recently, has there been any change in the delusions you have experienced?"

"Sir, do you even know this?"

Liu Qingyuan took a deep breath, and then exhaled slowly, "This subordinate often has the same dream these days."

"What dream?"

Wei Tao frowned slightly, "Is it the altar of bones, the woman in white?"

"No." Liu Qingyuan shook her head.

"It was a sea of ​​colorful flowers, and my subordinate vaguely saw a woman in it, but her figure and appearance were vague, and I couldn't remember it clearly once I woke up."

Wei Tao put down the teacup, and said in a calm tone, "Is that person Sun Xiyue?"

Liu Qingyuan's tone was puzzled, "I don't know, I think it should be her, but after thinking about it, I don't think so. In the end, I even forgot the real appearance of Sun Daozi."

"You know, I have seen her in real life before she betrayed Xuanwu Dao. It is really puzzling that such a situation will appear at this time."

click...

Wei Tao opened the suitcase he carried with him.

Take out more than a dozen portraits rolled into a tube.

Slowly unfold them and lay them flat on the ground at your feet.

"Recall carefully the images you saw in the dream, and whether they can correspond to the characters on these portraits."

Liu Qingyuan looked at them one by one, thought for a long time in silence, and then shook her head, "There are two pictures that do give me a feeling of similarity in shape and spirit, but when I recall them carefully, they are a little fuzzy, and I can't really be sure whether they are or not. .”

"Having a similar feeling is enough."

Wei Tao didn't show a disappointed expression, he put the picture back into the box, "You will accompany them to eat later, I'm going to the practice room to practice in seclusion, so that other people don't come close at will."

There was a muffled bang.

The heavy doors of the practice room were tightly shut.

Blocking the sunlight outside, the inside suddenly fell into darkness.

Wei Tao didn't turn on the lights hanging on the wall, and sat cross-legged on the ground in the middle.

Quietly, the status bar appeared in front of my eyes.

He quickly browsed through the interfaces one by one, and finally fixed his gaze on the interface of the secret method of King Kong.

Name: King Kong Secret Method.

Progress: 70.00%.

Status: Perfect.

Boundary: breaking the three levels of the law.

Description: It is mutually confirmed with other exercises, and this exercise has changed and improved.

"Whether to consume a gold coin to increase the progress of the Vajra Secret Art practice."

Without hesitation, Wei Tao directly chose yes.

Swish!
The status bar suddenly blurred and returned to normal after a while.

There is no mysterious breath injected into the body.

He watched intently, and found that the number of gold coins was still fourteen, and the consumption had not decreased.

Wei Tao frowned slightly, lost in thought.

He has now stepped into the level of mystic sense, but the Vajra Secret Technique cannot be improved, which shows that his previous thinking was correct.

If you want to break through the three barriers, the most important thing is to find the mysterious thoughts related to the Vajra Secret Art among all kinds of delusional thoughts, so that you can continue to improve to a deeper level on this basis.

Then, what exactly is the profound idea related to the Vajra Secret Technique, and how to capture and perceive it, has become a problem that needs to be considered in the next step.

Thinking silently, Wei Tao turned his eyes away from the interface of the Vajra Secret Method, and turned to the Cathode Secret Method.

140%, the progress of breaking the limit of four stages, the realm of the power of a master, this method is the foundation to support his strongest combat power.

"Whether to consume a gold coin to increase the progress of cathode secret method practice."

Swish!
The status bar was blurred again, and a gold coin disappeared.

Immediately afterwards, a large amount of mysterious aura surged into it.

Drastic changes came immediately, starting to change the body from every aspect.

Wei Tao closed his eyes, endured in silence, and felt carefully.

Time passed little by little.

The tearing pain gradually disappeared, and everything finally returned to calm.

He slowly opened his eyes, and his eyes fell on the status bar.

Name: Cathode Secret Method.

Progress: 150.

Status: The final stage of breaking the limit.

Realm: the power of a master.

Description: It is mutually confirmed with other exercises, and this exercise has been changed and improved.

"Have you broken the limit? It seems that I have reached the final upper limit of the cathode method."

"From now on, if we want to significantly improve our combat power, we can only hope for the Emperor's Seal and the Vajra Secret Technique.

If you want to exert the strongest power of Huangji Seal, you must obtain the fundamental internal training method that Emperor Wu practiced at the beginning.

It's just that this road is not easy, and I may not be able to succeed in the capital this time. More importantly, even if I can get it, if it is similar to Yuan Yi's internal training method, I may not be able to practice it successfully.

As for the Vajra Secret Technique, if you want to improve again, you must perceive and capture the corresponding profound thoughts, so that you can break through the three levels and reach the ultimate Great Vajra Realm.

And if you practice the Vajra Secret Art to great success, you will be able to transform into heaven and man, and become a master of horizontal training. The difficulty is evident, so it is not easy to perceive and capture the corresponding profound thoughts. "

Wei Tao closed his eyes and meditated, with many thoughts in his mind.

For a while, I was even a little confused, not knowing which direction to improve my strength level.

Suddenly, a certain memory flashed from the depths of his consciousness.

Like a ray of light, it dispels the fog in an instant, and illuminates a large area of ​​chaotic darkness.

"We still need to make more preparations to go to the capital, so if you want to improve your strength in a short time, you can consider this path."

His eyes were shining brightly, and the scene of the teaching competition emerged in his mind.

The final eruption of Yanxu, the first son of Xuanwu.

Wei Tao was thoughtful, and whispered to himself, "Beigong Xuanwu, Beiqisu, and the bullfighting girl are threatening the walls of the room."

"At that time, Yanxu was united with the seven constellations, broke through seven barriers in the body, and all the power of the spirit and energy combined to vibrate seven times, which has many similarities with the cathode secret method.

If I also practice the Xuanwu True Explanation of the Qisu Chapter to the depths, and then superimpose the Cathode Secret Technique and the Qisu Combined Attack, wouldn't it be possible to unleash unprecedented powerful power? "

"In the past, I didn't want to advance to the realm of mystic sense too quickly, so I didn't continue to practice the true understanding of Xuanwu. Now that this worry is gone, I can let go of my many worries and focus on being brave and diligent."

Thinking of this, he immediately looked at the three interfaces related to Xuanwu True Solution.

The turtle and snake chapter breaking the limit of 80.00 stages, the Rengui chapter with [-]% progress, and the Qisu chapter, which has just started and has not practiced deeply, are all his achievements in the Xuanwu True Explanation.

Wei Tao skipped the turtle and snake chapter, and looked at the Rengui chapter first.

After thinking for a while, he consumed three gold coins to raise it to 110 progress, breaking the limit of a section.

Then came the real key stage of this retreat.

One by one gold coins were bet into Qisu Chapter.

Put the elixir into your mouth and swallow it to replenish the body consumption after the cultivation method is improved.

Time flies.

Soon it came from noon to night, and then started a new day of reincarnation.

At noon the next day, the door of the practice room was slowly pushed open.

The sun shone in, spreading a golden color in front of the door.

A figure stood there quietly, just on the dividing line where light and darkness meet.

With the back against the darkness, the feet on the light, the whole body is surrounded by a black, red and light gold atmosphere, and there are traces of scarlet threads looming, depicting a fantastic and weird picture.

Title: Xuanwu Zhenjie Qisu Chapter.

Progress: 110.

Status: Breaking the limit for a period of time.

Realm: Shuangsu joint attack.

Description: It is mutually confirmed with other exercises, and this exercise has changed and improved.

Wei Tao narrowed his eyes, adapting to the sudden bright sunlight, a golden light reflected in his pupils.

After a while, he slowly raised his palm, staring at the endlessly surging black black scarlet red light gold tricolor real energy, he was a little dazed for a moment.

The black and black color is now completely derived from the Xuanwu Zhenjie Qisu chapter.

The scarlet like blood comes from the Blood Moon Shuangsha Art that has been improved and changed several times.

And that touch of golden color is the true energy derived from the King Kong secret technique.

The three are intertwined and integrated, bringing him a novel experience that he has never had before.

Wei Tao's thoughts moved slightly, he took away the breath of strength in his palms, and began to deduce the simulation in the depths of his mind.

Now his strongest state is to strengthen the physical body with the secret method of King Kong, and use the seal of Huangji to strike out the double lotus with double pedicles. Su Hejian exploded with the power of a master comparable to sixteen combined strikes.

Exactly what kind of power can be displayed needs to be experienced by a martial arts master whose strength level is higher than that of Wei Jueyan.

As for the warriors under the martial arts masters, or the ostentatious masters of the Qinglian Sect, they are no longer in his eyes.

He exhaled a hot breath lightly, and his mind fell on Xuanwu Zhenjie again.

Xuanwu Dao, as the head of the seven sects of sect, really has a foundation and depth that ordinary people can't touch.

The Qisu chapter has been practiced to 100% progress, and only when the seven forms of "Bullfighting Girl Void and Dangerous Room Wall" have been reached to the culmination, and then reach the breaking limit, can it be regarded as the prelude to the explosive combination attack.

If it is said that the chapter on turtles and snakes lays the foundation, and the chapter on Rengui focuses on comprehension, then the chapter on Qisu can be considered to have truly touched the untold secret of Xuanwu's true solution.

Then, on top of the Qisu chapter, the Mingyu chapter that directly refers to the martial arts master, and even the Xuanwu chapter that has never been revealed, what kind of mystery and mystery should it have? It is really fascinating and yearning.

And Yan Xu, as the number one disciple of Xuanwu, is indeed far superior to ordinary warriors in terms of talent and aptitude.

At the beginning, Yanxu was able to attack Qisu together, which was equivalent to relying on his own strength to practice the Qisu chapter to a high level of breaking the limit of six stages. In time, there is a high probability of success in breaking through the mystery and becoming a master.

It's a pity that after the Qinglian Sect invaded Taixuan Mountain, Yan Xu disappeared without a trace, and his life and death were unknown, which was definitely a huge loss for Xuanwu Dao.

Wei Tao restrained his thoughts and walked slowly into the courtyard.

The black, red and pale gold breath behind him returned to his body, and the scarlet tentacles hidden in the darkness disappeared without a trace. The whole person looked like a handsome young scholar.

Liu Qingyuan greeted him quickly, "Seeing Mr. at this time, and thinking about Mr. going to the capital, my subordinates have an inexplicable illusion, as if you are really going to the capital to catch the exam, and you are waiting for the title of the gold list soon. .”

"If I really go to Beijing to catch the exam, I'm afraid I'll lose the face of scholars all over the world."

Wei Tao just smiled, and then asked, "Is the boat ready?"

"Mr. Hui, everything is ready."

"That being the case, in case the weather gets colder and the river freezes, we set off today and send the three His Highnesses back safely earlier, which can be regarded as an end of our mind."

…………

…………

………………

The boat passed Luoshui, then turned to Mingshui, sailed southward along the north wind, and arrived in Yuanzhou without any delay.

Then disembarked at the southern border of Yuanzhou, changed carriages and turned overland, heading towards Xuanzhou where the capital of the Great Zhou was located.

It was getting late, and there were no cities or villages in front or behind, so everyone found a small stream and stopped the carriage for the night to rest.

"In such a short period of time, Daozi's level of strength has improved again, which really surprised and envied the old man."

Elder Wan tore the bacon into strips, and slowly ate it with the wine, exhaling contentedly from time to time.

Although it is a camping picnic in the wilderness, it seems to taste like a royal meal in the palace.

Wei Tao fiddled with the fire, but only sighed when he heard the words, "Before going down the mountain this time, the Taoist master specifically emphasized that martial arts practice must follow the principle of one piece, one piece, one piece, one piece, one piece, one piece, one piece, one piece, one piece, one piece, one piece, one piece, one piece, one piece, one piece, one piece, one piece, one piece, one piece, one piece, one piece, one piece, slow down, orderly.

When it should be fast, it should be like a thunderbolt, and drive straight ahead. When it should be slow, it must be cautious and step by step. This is the orthodox way. Now that the disciples have just entered the mystery, and they are improving their strength again, I don't know whether it is a good thing or a bad thing. "

Elder Wan ate a piece of roasted fatty meat, drank a few more gulps, and wiped his mouth with his sleeve casually, not caring that he stained his fine clothes.

"Senior brother Ning is indeed right, but as long as Daozi's mind is not really disturbed by mystical delusions, then whether it is faster or slower, it is actually not a big problem."

Speaking of this, his tone became much more serious, "However, if Daozi feels that his mood is unstable and his spirit platform is unclear, then he must pay attention. He would rather not practice for a period of time, not take action, and not let delusional thoughts develop freely."

Elder Chong at the side opened his eyes, "It's a pity that our sect lacks a key secret method, and there is no method that can guide the perception of profound thoughts. It is much more difficult than other sects to overcome delusion and reach the master.

What the Taoist said would rather be slow than fast, just for this matter, it is good that Taoist can understand the meaning of his old man. "

Elder Wan also sighed, "Senior Brother Ning has been devoting himself to trying to find a way to complete the missing secrets, even though he has already advanced to the realm of the master of the transformation of heaven and man, he still has to turn back and immerse himself in all kinds of delusions.

Fortunately, in the past few years, there have been some clues. When it is completed, it will be regarded as a guiding light for us who are hesitating in the endless darkness. "

Suddenly, dense footsteps approached from a distance.

Soon it has come close.

Elder Wan kept silent at this moment, and began to tear the bacon with his hands and sip his wine again.

Elder Chong also closed his eyes and began to rest.

Wei Tao was still fiddling with the firewood, looking beyond the twisting heat towards the sky, as if some rare treasure was hidden there.

Silently, the footsteps disappeared.

There is also a faint smell of blood, mixed with the night wind, adding a little different flavor to this cold night.

After a while, a man in black clothes came nearby and bowed, "Elder, Daozi, here is a group of gangsters who cut the trails, and they have all been killed."

"Understood, thank you for your hard work."

Wei Tao nodded slightly, showing a gentle smile.

"It is our honor to fight for Daozi."

The man in black gave a deep salute, retreated silently, and disappeared into the surrounding darkness.

"If I remember correctly, this is the sixth wave."

Elder Chong sighed softly, "The land in the Central Plains is fertile and the weather is good. It was originally a land of prosperity. I didn't expect such chaos to occur."

Elder Wan said, "Combined with the comeback of the Qinglian Demon Sect, and the alien races in the Northern Wilderness are about to move, it seems that after only 20 years, the peaceful and peaceful days will be far away from us again."

Elder Chong frowned, "If a white disaster breaks out in the Northern Wilderness this year, it is really possible for foreign races to send troops south again, and then Qizhou will bear the brunt, and our sect will face another test.

The key point is that it is no different than 40 years ago, when there were four masters on Qinglin Mountain and dozens of Xuangan warriors below, even so, they suffered heavy losses under the siege of Beihuang warriors, and the mountain gate was almost broken.

If it happens again, the consequences will be disastrous. "

Elder Wan put the roasted bacon into his mouth, and said indifferently, "Master Taoist, the old man's eyes are like a torch, he thinks he has a plan, we just need to obey orders.

When the time comes, fight when you should fight, leave if you can't fight, and die if you can't walk. "

Wei Tao laughed and said, "Elder Wan is open-minded and transparent, which makes my disciples admire him from the bottom of his heart."

"The Daozi is too famous, and the old man can't be regarded as really open-minded. It's just that he has been tortured by mystical thoughts for a long time, and he has to learn to enlighten himself. Otherwise, it will not be easy to survive these years."

Elder Wan laughed, and raised his finger to point to the distance, "If I remember correctly, the family of Elder Liu of Xuanwu Dao is in the city ahead, and we will go to stay overnight tomorrow night.

Then you can take a good rest, wash away the dust of the wind, food and sleeping all the way, and if you meet Elder Liu at home, you can catch up with old friends you haven't seen for many years. "

After a pause, he continued, "Of course, the most important thing is that since we have penetrated deep into Xuanzhou, it is difficult to hide our whereabouts, so it is better to openly show up at the elder Xuanwudao's house.

In this way, Xuanwu Dao's attention could be attracted. Even if someone thought carefully and thought of the three His Royal Highnesses hiding in the team, he would be a little more scruples if he wanted to do it. "

The long night passed, and the convoy set off before the sun rose.

After traveling for half a day, before the sun set, they arrived at the small town Elder Wan had mentioned.

Close to the city, a road paved with flat ashlars began to appear in front of it, and further away, there were more buildings such as farms and farmhouses beside the road, which was much more lively and lively than the wilderness before.

After entering the city, Elder Wan was familiar with the way and led the team straight inward.

Houses on the side of the street were lit up and smoke was ignited. There were laughter and laughter in my ears, and a strong smell of fireworks rushed to my face.

For ordinary people living in the city, it is a very happy thing for the whole family to sit around and have a hot dinner together in the severe winter.

"The closer you get to the center of the city, the quieter and quieter the environment becomes, which is surprising."

Wei Tao observed the changes along the way, with a puzzled expression on his face.

Elder Wan said, "Brother Xuanwu Liu likes to be quiet, but he doesn't want to live in the wilderness, so it's not unusual for a small town with his family as the core to gradually become like this."

While speaking, the convoy had already stopped in front of the garden-style mansion.

After the concierge inquired, he quickly entered the hospital to report.

Not long after, the middle door opened wide, and a tall old man stepped out quickly and greeted him with a big smile.

"I thought about it, but I couldn't remember which old friend surnamed Wan came to visit. I didn't know until I met it. It turned out to be Junior Brother Wan from Qinglin Mountain!"

Elder Wan smiled and said, "I was ordered by the Taoist master to go to the capital to visit the company on business. When I passed by this place, I came here on a whim. I didn't expect that I would actually see Senior Brother Liu."

Wu Qingxuan and the other three were masked in black and stood in the distance pretending to be Taoist soldiers. They did not come forward from the beginning to the end, nor did they attract any attention.

After Elder Liu and Elder Chong greeted each other, they turned their heads to look at Wei Tao.

With a smile on his face, Wei Tao made eye contact with him, and there was a gap in the void.

The two were slightly taken aback at the same time, and then moved away as if nothing had happened.

Elder Wan introduced, "This is Daoist Daoist of the door guard, who is highly valued by Daoist Ning, and I will learn from Senior Sister Yu."

"Yuanyi Wei Tao, I have met Elder Liu." Wei Tao lowered his head and bowed, his eyes flickered, thoughtful.

Elder Liu smiled kindly and spoke softly, "After teaching the Grand Competition, I have heard the name of Wei Daozi, who is worthy of the name, the number one Daoist of the Seven Schools. When I saw him today, he was really a dragon and a phoenix among men, with an extraordinary bearing."

Wei Tao saluted again, "Elder Liu's praise, but it's all because of the love of senior brothers and sisters."

"To see two old friends today, and to have the chance to meet Wei Daozi again, is truly delightful."

Elder Liu led the crowd to the courtyard, and told the housekeeper to quickly arrange the room and prepare the banquet. After a little freshening up and rest, they will have a drink and get drunk.

Wei Tao followed behind, watching the housekeeper of the Liu family go away, and then looked at the servant girl who was accompanying him not far away, the doubt in his eyes not only did not dissipate, but became more and more intense.

After half an hour.

Guided by a young boy in Tsing Yi, Wei Tao came to an exquisite and elegant guest room.

He didn't go to change clothes to wash, nor did he eat the refreshments on the table, but sat on the wooden chair without moving, looking down at the quietly burning candle, quietly thinking about what he saw and heard along the way.

From meeting Elder Liu of the Xuanwu Dao at the door, to being in charge of Liu's residence, maids and servants, big and small, all brought him an inexplicably familiar feeling.

After thinking about it, it is surprising.

Suddenly there was a soft creak.

A cold wind blows from outside.

Push open the door that was not closed tightly.

The candle on the table jumped suddenly, and the whole room seemed to be darkened at this moment.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of light footsteps sounded, and they came to the front soon.

"Wei Daozi, the table in the banquet hall is ready, the master ordered the servants to invite Daozi to the banquet."

A beautiful maid stood outside the door, bowed her knees and saluted.

Wei Tao didn't speak, but slowly raised his head, silently watching the slender figure.

Under his gaze, the little maid stood there quietly, with a faint smile still on her face, but upon closer inspection, it seemed that the smile had never changed, it was the same expression from beginning to end.

It's like pasting a vivid mask of a smiling face on a real face and completely fixing it, and nothing has changed since then.

Quietly, another gust of cold wind blew.

There was another soft knock on the wooden door of the guest room.

Snapped!
The candlelight on the table danced again, and with the change of light and dark, an inexplicable aura slowly spread in the room.

"In this treacherous house, except for Elder Liu, you are more special than others."

Wei Tao sighed lowly, as if he was muttering to himself, his voice was so low that only he could hear clearly.

The little maid smiled slightly, "What is Daozi talking about, please forgive me for not hearing."

Wei Tao still didn't get up, and also returned a gentle smile, "What I'm saying is, you have more servants than other maids, and I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing."

(End of this chapter)
