Han Xuan waited in Sizhong for a while, but he never came out.
Xu Mo thought, why not check the people on the roster first?
Taoist Lingzhao's matter is his personal grudge, and he doesn't need help from others.
Having myself and Xiangying is enough.
He pulled Xiang Ying out of his sleeves and told him what had happened. Xiang Ying nodded.
"Then check them one by one. But how do you determine who is Lingzhao Taoist? What if the other party refuses to admit it?"
What Xiang Ying said is also a problem.
Xu Mo then pulled out the Ling Zhao Sword from his sleeve.
"This sword was made with the Nascent Soul sacrificed by Taoist Lingzhao. There must be a connection between them. As long as you meet Taoist Lingzhao, let alone face to face, even within ten steps, Lingzhao Sword will definitely sense it.
, when the time comes, regardless of whether the other party admits it or not, just kill him."
"This is best."
At the moment, Xu Mo went to visit one by one according to the list.
In fact, it's just to investigate.
Kyoto is huge.
A mixed bag
But there are not many immortals.
There are even fewer majoring in the Three Animals and the Return to One.
It's said to be a roster, but in fact, there are only three people.
One is a fortune teller in the city.
Xu Mo felt that the other party was the most likely, so that was the first thing he checked.
But when he arrived at the place and saw him in person, Xu Mo knew it was not the case.
It doesn't feel right.
Ling Zhao Sword didn't respond at all.
Seeing Xu Mo, this Taoist was very frightened. After chatting with him, he learned that his Taoist name was "Puzhen".
"Three animals returned to one? Haha, I once majored in this method, but it failed in the end. Three animals were taken away from two animals, and I almost lost my life. Although my life was saved in the end, my cultivation was completely destroyed. Now, I can only
I make a living by setting up a stall and telling people’s fortunes.”
Puzhenzi complained to Xu Mo.
Talking about the sad part, I cried twice.
Now the other person is no different from an ordinary person, even worse, because he has become a cripple by cultivating the Three Sacrifice Unity.
There is no one who has cultivated to this level in immortality.
Since it was not the case, Xu Mo planned to ask the other party if he had ever heard of Taoist Lingzhao.
"Never heard of it!"
Puzhenzi shook his head: "This name is just a code name. I bet that the word Lingzhao is the same. Maybe the other person's real name is Wang Ergouzi, or maybe Zhang Mazi."
"In that case, let's say goodbye!"
"Wait a minute!" Puzhenzi grinned and said, "I'll tell you a fortune. You give us money. I haven't eaten yet today. I'm hungry."
Xu Mo went to find the second person on the list.
In other words, it's a ghost.
It is held under the seventh pagoda of Kenoji Temple in Kyoto.
The 'Jianwang Temple' was built when the Great Xia Dynasty was founded. It has a good foundation and is a self-built force within the dynasty. Of course, its foundation and strength are definitely not as good as those of the Zhengqi Division.
You know, in the past few dynasties, there were Zhengqi departments, and this was inherited from the same line.
There is no comparison between the two.
However, what the 'Jianwang Temple' does is a bit similar to that of the Zhengqi Division. If some evil spirits cause trouble, the 'Jianwang Temple' can handle it without the need for the Zhengqi Division to take action.
There are also many evil and strange things locked up in the 'Jianwang Temple'.
The ghost Xu Mo is looking for is one of them.
After entering the temple, he showed his official badge from the Zhengqi Department, and soon an old monk came to receive him.
"Xu Putou wants to go to the Seventh Pagoda?"
"right!"
"Follow the poor monk!"
The old monk didn't talk nonsense, and he probably knew the Zhengqi Division's methods of doing things.
Untouchable.
It's better to cooperate a little bit.
The Buddhist pagodas in "Jianwang Temple" are like a forest. The seventh pagoda is at the back. It is not big. There is a secret room under the pagoda. Enter it and summon the soul with the nightmare words, and the ghost will appear.
It's a female ghost.
Dressed like a nun.
Xu Mo sensed the Lingzhao Sword, but there was no reaction on the sword.
Obviously not.
But here we are, let’s have a chat, learn about the three animals returning to one, and by the way, ask the other party if they know Lingzhao Taoist.
"I practiced Yi god earlier and did some wrong things, but later I converted to Buddhism and gave up my life. It has been a hundred years now. I have never heard of the Lingzhao Taoist you mentioned."
But not all was lost.
The nun ghost told Xu Mo that if the other party cultivates the three animals and unites them into one, he will definitely become a Yi god.
"If he is a Yi god, he can possess the body of a mortal. He looks just like a mortal. Looking for him is like looking for a needle in a haystack, so you might as well put it down."
"I can't let it go, okay, I won't tell you anymore. If you want to argue about Buddhism, I can trick you into returning to secular life and getting married. Do you believe it or not?"
After Xu Mo finished speaking, he turned and left.
Xu Mo also thought about what the other party said.
But if this is the case, Taoist Lingzhao is hiding in Kyoto as an ordinary mortal, and it is really impossible to find him unless he shows up.
"Check the last person on the list. If it's not the last person on the list, we can only give up for now."
Xu Mo walked without stopping and arrived at an official residence.
There lived a censor here.
The other party is also a cultivator of immortality, cultivating the Three Sacrifice and Returning to One.
Seeing Xu Mo's official badge, the other party showed fear and fear, and it looked like he was about to kneel down and kowtow.
"I have stopped practicing the evil method of three animals returning to one. Xu Putou, I have been reforming my evil ways for many years. Now I just want to be a good official and benefit the people."
Obviously, it's not this guy.
Likewise, the other party didn't know who Lingzhao Taoist was, let alone heard of it.
After he was sure that he was not the person he was looking for, Xu Mo didn't bother to talk nonsense anymore and just said goodbye and left.
It took most of the day to investigate these three people. In addition to becoming more familiar with the method of returning three animals to one, the goal Xu Mo wanted to achieve was still far away, and there was not even a clue.
"How about you fly your sword around the city at night and let Lingzhao Sword find it on its own?" Xiang Ying suggested from the side.
Xu Mo thought for a while and shook his head.
This plan seems simple, but in fact it is more difficult to implement. The Lingzhao Sword is a primary spirit, which is different from a big spirit like the Diting Sword.
The difference is equivalent to that between a dog and an adult.
Let Lingzhao Sword look for it on its own, it won't be found.
Unless Lin Mo is also within ten steps.
How is this different from Lin Mo’s own door-to-door inspection?
Kyoto is such a large land and has a large population. According to this method, it will take several years to complete the investigation.
But things will change.
For example, if the Lingzhao Taoist hiding in the dark notices it and leaves early, everything he does then will be in vain.
"I won't be looking for you for the time being."
Xu Mo could only do this.
In that case, Lin Jiuyuan would have to hide it.
Or, take Lin Jiuyuan to Kyoto and use her as bait to induce Taoist Lingzhao to show up.
It was getting dark now.
Most people started to go home.
Xu Mo walked down a street that he had never walked through before. When he passed by the outskirts of an extremely luxurious house, he suddenly felt something in his heart.
Because the Ling Zhao Sword in his sleeve shook without any warning.
Xu Mo immediately stood still, took a few steps back, flipped his hand, and took out the Lingzhao Sword.
But at this moment, Lingzhao Sword stopped responding again.
Xu Mo frowned and looked around.
Xiang Ying didn't know the inside story, but she knew Xu Mo very well, so she didn't say anything at this time. She also glanced around, her whole body tense, ready to take action at any time.
"Maybe it's an illusion."
Xu Mo found that Lingzhao Sword didn't react at all, as if the shaking just now was an unconscious movement.
It's one thing to suddenly shake when sleeping with someone.
Xu Mo, who was about to continue walking, stopped again as soon as he took a step forward.
