Liaozhai Great Sage

Regardless of whether it was his own intention, it was most likely also the imperial court's intention.

It's a pity that Li Xiuyuan didn't know what Cui Wei was thinking.

If you know, then you must laugh at this person who has too much brain power and thinks too much.

Li Xiuyuan simply encountered some evil things and wanted to solve them casually. He didn't think about it that much at all. If it wasn't about Zhu Yu, he wouldn't even know that there was such a thing as Wutongjiao, and he wouldn't even go to it. Looking for trouble when there is nothing to do, looking for trouble with that lotus girl.

It's a pity that Miss Lianhua's fate was not good, and she met her doom and fell into her own hands.

I can only blame her for doing too much evil, and there will be retribution in the end.

But the night was not peaceful.

Li Xiuyuan's house is clean, but it is on a river in the capital.

Ships dock here, which is an important wharf, but on a river south of the capital, there are lights and festoons here, and there are many painted boats here. It is comparable to the Qinhuai River in Jinling City. It is a rare place of wind, flowers and snow , Some people are tired of the boring brothels, come to the river to listen to the music and admire the dancing girls.

It's not bad to blow the river wind.

At this moment.

A wave of evil spirit submerged into one of the painting boats under the cover of night.

The evil spirit manifested, but it was the figure of a woman.

However, her figure is a bit vain, like a ghost, without form.

This person is none other than the lotus essence that Li Xiuyuan deliberately let go in Zuifeng Tower.

"The Great Immortal saves me, the Great Immortal saves me, I met a strong man in the Drunken Wind Building, he was powerful in spells, and took my body away, my Nu's escaped with only one shape, please ask the Great Immortal to save me."

The lotus girl cried out with a pleading look on her face, and knelt down facing a private room in the painting boat.

"It's a lotus flower."

A woman's voice came from the private room, the voice was light and agile, without any enchanting air, but instead had a kind of non-human flavor.

"Great Immortal, save me." Miss Lianhua kowtowed in tears and said, "My family's Taoism is all in the body, and I ask the Great Immortal to cast a spell to save me."

"Don't cry, what are you crying for? It's all my family, so how could I die?" The voice continued.

But I saw a pair of jade-like hands on the gums in the private room were taking a piece of yellow paper and folding it into a paper crane: "I sent this paper crane to hold that lotus flower. You just need to wait for a few days and it will be gone immediately." , and step back first, don’t come to my place to make noise again, next time you have something to go to Jiaofang to find me.”

"Thank you, Great Immortal, thank you, Great Immortal." Miss Lianhua was overjoyed when she saw a paper crane flying out, and hurriedly kowtowed.

But after she left, another voice sounded from inside.

"My sister clearly knows that the human way is unpredictable. She can capture the lotus, and she can also capture her clone. The reason why she was allowed to escape from the Zuifeng Tower was because the drunkard's intention was not to drink, and it was our Wutong Sect. You guys, if you dare to call our attention, you must have confidence, and you need to be extremely careful, if I come to deal with it, I will just abandon the lotus and cut off this connection."

Another voice said lazily, it was also a woman's voice, but it was a little less fairy-like and a little more bewitching.

"You're too impatient. I'll send Zhihe to investigate first, to test that person's skills. Besides, the lotus flower is of great importance in the sect. If you don't express it, wouldn't it be chilling? There is an opportunity to take advantage of."

"If that person really wants to track down our Wutong Sect, he will be able to track it down sooner or later, and the connection will not be clear."

"Sister said yes."

The voices in the painting boat quickly quieted down.

Only one paper crane flew to the Zuifeng Tower without a sound, and after staying in the Zuifeng Tower for a while, it searched for the smell of lotus in the capital.

When the sky is getting brighter.

The paper crane finally found the yard where Li Xiuyuan was.

The paper crane landed on the water tank in the yard from the sky, and it stood there looking at the blooming lotus in the water tank.

Cleverly patrolled around for a while.

Suddenly, the paper crane fluttered its wings and flew, and suddenly became bigger. It turned into a crane and grabbed the rhizome of the lotus with its claws, trying to pull it out of the water tank and take it away.

"Crash..."

However, the water surface in the water tank fluctuated and splashed.

Suddenly, thousands of golden lights shot out from the water, instantly covering the crane.

The wailing crane instantly turned into a piece of ordinary yellow paper and fell from mid-air, and the lotus flower that had just been picked up returned to the water tank again.

There was no movement except for a few waves.

"Goo, goo."

A big bright red rooster paced over and pecked at the yellow paper crane on the ground. The big rooster walked away only after seeing that there was no response from the pecking tatters.

"Is it really a trap? It's really extraordinary."

The Great Immortal sensed the fate of the paper crane, and let out a soft sigh. His spell was broken in an instant, and the information revealed in it was enough for people to pay attention to.

6 Chapter Forty

The next morning.

Li Xiuyuan stood beside the water tank, looking at a piece of tattered talisman paper that had been pecked on the ground, his expression changed.

Apparently, someone had spied him with spells when he was going to bed early.

"No, the trap I left has taken effect. This paper crane was not pecked down by Lei Gong, it was knocked down by my spell, and then it was pecked by Lei Gong. In this way, the purpose of this paper crane is not to come To spy on me, but to steal this white lotus?"

"It didn't even pass for a night, and two people came here one after another? This capital is really lively enough."

Li Xiuyuan bent down and picked up the tattered talisman paper: "This is the origami technique of the Daoist sect. Could it be that some cultivators from the capital have mixed in? No, no, the spells of the Daoist sect do not necessarily have to be cast by the Taoist. It is possible that such a spell was deliberately used to induce me to make a wrong deduction, so as to separate the connection."

He put the tattered paper talisman next to his nose and smelled it.

There is no smell of incense in the temple, so it can be seen that it is not a spell cast by ghosts and gods, and there are no traces of folding by people who practice Taoism.

People who practice Taoism origami cranes are taught by their masters, so the techniques of origami are fixed, and some habits have been formed over time.

Some Taoists who have a deep study of magic can even judge which Taoist disciple cast the spell through the traces of origami.

"There is a fragrance on it, which is the fragrance of rouge... This paper crane is from the hands of a woman." Li Xiuyuan's eyes moved slightly: "But no matter how deep you hide it, you will still cast a spell on this white lotus, even if No matter how cautious your spells are, you can't count that there is still a treasure in my hand that can investigate the past."

He didn't waste time and took out the mirror to check.

Sure enough, the picture in the mirror returned to last night.

When the sky was slightly bright, a paper crane flew over from a certain direction of the capital. It was so silent that even Lei Gong who was dozing on the roof was not disturbed.
