The overcast light of the early morning soon filled this elegant room facing the street. The street outside the window became lively, and bustling ghosts were walking back and forth on the street.
The martial arts doctor in the room stood up, and when he was about to say something, Hu Lan, who had already walked out of the private room, quickly disappeared from his eyes.
The martial arts doctor hesitated to speak. He never said anything, nor did he follow him. He just froze on the spot with the door half-opened.
After a long time, the two human souls covered in brocade clothes who had followed him into the city walked out of the private room opposite the door and directly entered the private room where the ghost doctor was.
After closing the door, one of the human souls said to the ghost doctor who was still stunned: "Well done; now go bring the medicine and treatment equipment and return to Shizhu City immediately."...
Xiao Shizhu's luxurious and gorgeous shrine went all the way south after leaving Mu Xicheng. After going straight to Shizhu City, it did not enter the city, but quietly stopped at the temple of the ancient god in the mountains and forests outside the city.
The temple here was built ten miles east of the city, on the top of a mountain surrounded by thousands of rocks. It was built on the huge rocks on the top of the mountain.
Under the mountain gate, there is a thirty-six-story bluestone platform, which leads directly to the huge rock and is built on a circular stone platform made of ancient large bricks and surrounded by 72 planes to form a cylindrical shape. A three-foot-high wall is built around the platform.
Similar to a city wall, there are three main halls on the platform, and one east and west auxiliary hall. There is a bronze statue of Nuwa and Fuxi in the main hall, about one foot high, with exquisite casting.
Xiao Shizhu's shrine was parked directly in front of the majestic main hall, in the square filled with purple energy. So far, it has been parked here for five days, and Xiao Shizhu has no intention of leaving.
This place is not only a temple to worship ancient gods, but also the stronghold of the local Xuanjiao branch.
The reason why Xiao Shizhu did not go to the city but came here was because, firstly, the mountains here were high and densely forested, so it was not easy to expose his whereabouts. Secondly, the Xuanjiao branch was safer than in the city. Thirdly, this was not
As for disturbing people.
The prestige of Xiao Shizhu and Ghost Mother is too high in Jiuyou Kingdom. If you follow the shrine into the city, you will definitely be welcomed by the people in the city, which is hundreds of times more exaggerated than picking up an idol at the airport in the world.
By then, half a day's work would have been wasted, and the ghost people might have to come to welcome them, and a large amount of military force would have to be wasted to maintain public order, which would waste people and money. Xiao Shizhu still had to deal with that enthusiasm, which was really tiring.
Moreover, he still has a lot of serious things to do. It is better to wait until he has nothing to do to enjoy the pride and pride brought by this kind of national enthusiasm.
Xiao Shizhu, who had finished washing in the shrine, sat on the throne in the shrine hall and glanced at the big flower lying on a soft cushion in the corner not far away.
At this time, both of Dahua's front legs were wrapped in bandages, and one of the dog legs was even splinted.
Seeing this appearance, Xiao Shizhu smiled faintly and asked Dahua: "Next time in the mountains, do you still dare to run around and jump around? This time I didn't fall to death but only broke one leg. You are destined to die."
Already.".
Dahua opened her mouth and stuck out her tongue, wagging her tail when she looked at him. She was in good spirits, and the injury seemed to be nothing to Dahua.
It's just that it has been straining its muscles and bones for a hundred days, and recently it has been unable to fly around.
"Ignore him, it's not because he asked you to chase that Lu Shu that this happened!".
At the same time, the ghost mother walked out of the back bedroom, rolled her eyes at her husband and said to Dahua: "When you get better, don't go crazy with him, just follow me, I guarantee you won't get hurt again.
”.
After that, he climbed onto the other phoenix-patterned throne next to Xiao Shizhu.
But Dahua listened half-heartedly, tilting his head and looking at the couple in a daze. It liked to watch Xiao Shizhu and his wife bickering, and although it didn't understand it very well, it was so focused every time it watched.
"Don't tell me, without Dahua's injuries, I have no reason to send the ghost doctor back to Yuque City first." Xiao Shizhu smiled nonchalantly and said proudly: "
Now, Wu Ghost Doctor has entered the city. It won’t be long before he meets Hu Lan.”
After Xiao Shizhu said this, there was a look of expectation in his eyes.
Then, he remembered the cotton ball that was infused with profound energy, but the blood of his youngest daughter Xiao Fucha was used, and he couldn't help but smile even more.
He firmly believed that after Hu Lan saw the normal blood on those cotton balls, he would believe that it was his ghost blood. Next, Hu Lan would definitely take action.
What exactly Hu Lan wants his ghost blood for can be found out soon.
Xiao Shizhu felt happy just thinking about how he was fooling Hu Lan around like this.
"Do you think Hu Lan will believe that it is your ghost blood?".
At this time, the ghost mother stopped bickering with her husband and asked thoughtfully with a serious look on her face.
Seeing that they didn't argue, Dahua felt bored, so she turned over slightly, lay on her side on the mat and closed her eyes to take a nap. The splinted front legs were not pressed underneath.
The ghost mother's eyes were slightly worried, but she was still afraid of being so fake. What would she do if Hu Lan found out?
"We shouldn't worry. We are fortunate that Yinsi's technology has stagnated not long after Fengdu old ghost ascended the throne. Otherwise, only a DNA test would be needed to find out the increase." Xiao Shizhu was full of confidence,
He couldn't help but joked: "It's okay now. The ghost blood is my daughter's and the human soul's. There is still my mysterious power left on it. Hu Lan, who has not tested medicine, if he can tell the truth from the false, I really
I don’t want to kill him anymore.”
After a pause, Xiao Shizhu smiled again and said: "Don't worry, even if you put a cotton ball in front of the old ghost Fengdu, he wouldn't know it was fake. But I'm curious, what does the old ghost Hu Lan want?
What does my blood do?”.
Seeing how confident he was, the ghost mother temporarily put away her worries and felt relieved.
It's better to wait and see what happens now. Taking rash actions will only alert the snakes and make them take a peek.
At this moment, Qing Lan and Chen Ruo walked in. After the two ghosts brought in Xiao Shizhu and the ghost mother's breakfast, they placed them one by one on the small table between the two thrones.
The breakfast was quite simple, consisting of just a few eggs, two bowls of millet porridge, some pickles and a few palm-sized scallion pancakes.
National war and construction all require money, so save as much as you can. Xiao Shizhu, Gui Mu, and even Lai Yueqi are all frugal in their expenses.
In Xiao Shizhu's words, just eat enough and nutritiously, and the money you save will be put to good use.
Therefore, Xiao Shizhu and the others did not pay much attention to ostentation in their food and drink expenses.
The entire breakfast, that is, the utensils used to serve it, are quite gorgeous. They are all made of fine jade, bowls and plates carved with extremely complicated handicrafts, and chopsticks carved with green horns. But these complicated and exquisite tableware are also
It was made in the time of the ancient gods and has been kept in the warehouse of Yuque Palace.
It is not a new artifact ordered by Xiao Shizhu today.
After everything was set up and the hot tea was served, Chen Ruo left to prepare Dahua's breakfast. Qing Lan just stepped aside and stood still, reporting to Xiao Shizhuhui: "My Lord, Xuanjiao Lin Cong
Your Majesty, the fungus man sent an urgent report. The Ghost Doctor has secretly completed the joint with Hu Lan according to your request. And Hu Lan also took away the bloody cotton ball that you arranged to make."
"Yeah." Xiao Shizhu responded, picked up his chopsticks, picked up his millet porridge, and started eating.
The light millet porridge has a unique fragrance and a good taste. Just smelling it makes Xiao Shizhu move his index finger.
"How did Hu Lan react?" Xiao Shizhu, who had just taken a bite, asked vaguely while chewing the food in his mouth.
"In Xuanjiao's return, Hu Lan found nothing abnormal and found no clues for the time being. After getting the cotton ball, he said, 'He really, he really came out of the vast underworld, and after killing a circle, he was safe and sound.
I'm back.'." Qinglan thought about the reply she received.
Bian told Xiao Shizhu everything that Xuanjiao reported without changing a word: "Then he also told Wu Guiyi that the commission would send someone to Wu Guiyi's house. Let Wu Guiyi forget about it.
, Hu Lan and Wu Guiyi no longer know each other. No one has seen each other."
After a pause, Qinglan continued: "Then Hu Lan went back to the mansion directly, and never left the mansion again."
"Hmm." At this time, Xiao Shizhu, who had eaten only half of the bowl of millet porridge, put down his bowl and chopsticks. After thinking for a moment, he said: "I ordered Lin Cong to keep an eye on this Hu Lan who was pretending to be sick. Every move he made was slightly
If there is any abnormality, report it to me as soon as possible."
Xiao Shizhu guessed Hu Lan's purpose. From what Hu Lan said in the report, it seemed that Hu Lan couldn't believe that Xiao Shizhu really came back from the underworld safe and sound.
Xiao Shizhu thought, could it be that he knew beforehand whether he would come back or not? Would he be in danger in the underworld?
As soon as he thought about this, Xiao Shizhu's mind quickly recalled those narrow escapes in the underworld.
"Yes, Master Lin Cong has already done all this." Qing Lan, who was nodding next to him, said, "Please don't worry, my lord. Even when Hu Lan visits the brothels, he is also secretly followed by Xuanjiao followers."
"That's good." Xiao Shizhu nodded with satisfaction, looked at Qing Lan, and asked: "Is there anything else you want me to know right away?".
"There is no such thing over there in Yuque City." Qinglan answered affirmatively after recalling everything.
"Then go and have breakfast." Xiao Shizhu picked up his bowl and chopsticks again.
But Qing Lan had not left yet. He stood on the spot and said to Xiao Shizhu: "But there is news from Shuoyue Island. General Yingzhao reported this morning, saying that in three days, the envoys sent by the Northern Yin Dynasty will
Arriving at Shuoyue Island, everything has been arranged according to the previous arrangements, and the negotiations will be carried out as scheduled in three days."
Xiao Shizhu seemed to no longer care about the affairs of Shuoyue Island. He just thought of something after humming, and immediately asked: "By the way, where is Asan's side? Are you ready to use this to promote the Beiyin Dynasty?"
Are you incompetent and weak, and unjust and unhelpful?"
Hu Lan nodded several times, and before he spoke, Xunxiang walked in quickly. After standing in front of Xiao Shizhu and Ghost Mother, he saluted and said: "My lord, **, there is a new one on Shuoyue Island."
report.".
After saying that, she quickly took out an unopened secret letter from her sleeve and presented it with both hands: "This is an urgent letter that was just delivered by speed car."
Xiao Shizhu had to put down his bowl and chopsticks and took the letter.
Seeing that there was residue on the corners of his mouth, the ghost mother put down the dishes, picked up the plain towel, and carefully wiped the corners of her husband's mouth.
After Xiao Shizhu opened the letter, he motioned for Xunxiang to go down first.
After Xunxiang left the shrine, Xiao Shizhu unfolded the letter in his hand and read it carefully.
After taking a closer look, Xiao Shizhu laughed.
With his face full of joy, he suddenly smiled, put down the letter in his hand, and shouted repeatedly: "Okay, okay, okay. This time I want to see if Beiyin Dynasty can still raise its head at the negotiation table."
