ghost scene

Facing Yu Gan's sight, the Holy Mother frowned slightly, and looked up at him, and the latter quickly withdrew his gaze and buried his head in cooking.

Soon, Yu Gan, who had eaten four or five bowls of porridge, put down his chopsticks contentedly.

Seeing that the Virgin was still eating, he didn't just sit idle, he got up and went to the barn to repair the roof that he smashed last night.

This kind of trivial matter is very simple for Yu Gan. With the blessing of the technique, he can get it done in two or three strokes, and at the same time help to tidy up the scattered grains.It only takes half a minute to finish all this.

After that, Yu Gan flew directly to the forest behind, cut down a dozen or so big trees, and used spells to bald them. Then, under the sway of the sword, these trees became a uniform standard of wood for fire in an instant .

Then, Yu Gan flew back to the small courtyard with the wood, and stacked them neatly outside the yard, which was enough for the elderly for a long time.

His idea is also very simple, the old man is kind-hearted, so he will help to do something.It is inappropriate to give money or something, which will make the elderly frightened.

Doing these practical things is the best choice.

The old couple watched Yu Gan busy up and down in the yard, their faces were full of astonishment, but they just watched silently, not saying anything.

It turned out that these two people were not from a wealthy family in trouble, but two master immortals.

And it is a very weird Master Immortal Master, they have never seen such a kind Master Immortal Master.Not only does he not have the slightest airs, but he also does things out of sincerity.

After finishing these, Yu Gan clapped his hands and walked into the yard, smiled kindly at the two old people, then sat opposite the Virgin, and asked.

"I have to go back to Tai'an City first, I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain if it is later. What is the plan of the Holy Mother?"

"It will take a short time for the injury to heal completely, so I will stay here first." The Holy Mother replied lightly.

"That's good, it's quiet and safe here." Yu Gan nodded in agreement, and then said, "Then I'll go first, and come back when I'm free. If you need anything, just contact me."

"Ah."

"Be careful in everything." Yu Gan said one last sentence, then got up and smiled at the two old people, "Old man, my sister will be in trouble here for a while."

"No trouble, no trouble." The old man waved his hands quickly and said.

After Yu Gan bowed down, he soared into the sky and flew in the direction of Tai'an.

The Virgin put down the chopsticks in her hand, squinted at the intact barn, then at the neat timber outside, and finally at Yu Gan's receding back.

It has to be said that the short time of getting along has refreshed the Holy Mother's direct perception of Yu Gan.She had never seen a young man with such style and thought.

In particular, Yu Gan's invisible views on many things made this Holy Mother who has read all living beings feel different, but she couldn't describe the specific core for a while, so she felt that she was a very different person.

Yu Gan, who was above the sky, would naturally not know that his image in the heart of the Holy Mother had undergone a reverse change.

He is now thinking about the series of reactions that Zhu Chen's death can cause.

First of all, beheading Zhu Chen with his own hands, it can be regarded as temporarily avenging Gu Qingyuan and the others, and after that, let King Nanyang go down to be buried with him.

The death of Gu Lao and the others is inseparable from the dog father and son.However, with his current strength, the King of Nanyang really couldn't move him, so he could only figure it out slowly, and continuing to improve his cultivation was the most important thing.

After that, he had to kill that Aguli and the mysterious second-rank monk who almost killed him.

Well, in the matter of life and death, Yu must take revenge. Since these two chose to attack him brazenly and almost killed him, they must not let it go.People from Nanyang's family cannot be easily let go.

Thinking clearly about these remaining ganks, I have a clear mind for the time being, at least I have a preliminary confession to Gu Lao Neng, and my heart is not as heavy as it was before.

After Zhu Chen's death, I'm afraid many things will be in turmoil. I'm not sure about Nanyang's reaction, but Tai'an's side probably won't be too peaceful in the coming time.

Undercurrents are inevitable, it depends on what the emperor thinks and does.The emperor will definitely investigate the matter of killing himself.

It will be a matter of time before the Holy Mother and Lu Qianqian are found out. After all, there are only so many third-rank monks, and there are records, and the two of them did not do anything to cover up.

It is not difficult to find out with the ability of Qin Tianjian.But it's not so easy to check.Covered and concealed by the fairy aura, he couldn't find himself at all.

What's more important is the issue of strength. No one would think that the one who can kill Jiang Lie and Zhu Can will be a fourth-rank monk.

What do I have to do with the people killed by the third-grade sword cultivator?

Therefore, from this point of view alone, it is impossible to find out about himself.If you don't know, it's enough.

As long as he doesn't show up, the clue will be completely broken.Because Lu Qianqian and the Holy Mother have an irreconcilable relationship, the bond must be on her side.

I'm fine, everything is fine.

As for Lu Qianqian, Yu Gan wasn't worried.Qingqiu's cultivation strength is very strong, even if it is known that Lu Qianqian did it, Da Qi and Nanyang can't settle it.

For the current Daqi, it is too difficult to provoke Qingqiu.

As for the Holy Mother, Yu Gan is not worried.The sect has thousands of years of rebellious background, just kill a Nanyang prince, this kind of thing has a lot of experience, and it will not be too passive.

After thinking about this, Yu Gan felt at ease again.

Stable.

The flying speed became faster, and after nearly an hour, Yu Gan finally saw the majestic Tai'an City in the distance.He made a detour to enter through the east gate.

And very cautiously used the spirit of the fairy to cover up his monk's breath and mixed into the city.Then he quietly walked all the way back to the princess mansion.

When I returned to the Princess Mansion, it happened to be high in the sun, and Yu Gan was walking in the mansion in a leisurely and unhurried manner.After arriving at Li Nianxiang's private courtyard, seeing that Xiaocai was cleaning up there alone, he asked,

"Xiao Cai, where is the princess?"

Xiao Cai turned her head to see Yu Gan, and said pleasantly, "Morning son-in-law. The princess waited here until dawn last night, and she just fell asleep not long ago."

"Okay, when Wen An wakes up, tell her that I'm going to Dali Temple first." Yu Gan nodded and said.

"No need." Li Nianxiang's voice came from behind the pavilion, and came out with a clear voice.

"Little Cai, go and bring in some food." Li Nianxiang gave Xiao Cai an order, and the latter quickly put down what she was doing and went out to prepare meals.

Yu Gan looked at Li Nianxiang, to be precise, it was Wu Xi.He walked over with a smile on his face.

"Is everything settled?" Wu Xi asked first, "I got the news that Zhu Chen was beheaded by a sword cultivator. Is that sword cultivator you?"

"Well, it's me," Yu Gan nodded with a frank look.But that look obviously looked like a joke.

"So, Jiang Lie and Zhu Can said that they were beheaded by the mysterious sword cultivator, and it was you?" Wu Xi asked with flickering eyes.

"Well, it's me. It took a lot of effort." Yu Gan smiled and raised his chest, looking very proud.

Seeing Yu Gan like this, Wu Xi couldn't believe it even more.She naturally thought that Yu Gan was teasing herself.Without seeing it with her own eyes, she naturally chose to believe in the iron law of the practice world.

Just kidding, how can it be possible to cut the third rank at the fourth rank, and still have a cultivation level above the middle level of the third rank.

Wu Xi just continued, "It seems that the suspicious eyes will not be on you for the time being. To the outside world, I will follow the previous statement and say that you spent the whole night in the mansion to heal your wounds and never went out.

With my testimony, it shouldn't be a big problem, at least in a short time.However, you still have to pay attention.The emperor will certainly not expose this matter easily.

There are many other forces secretly investigating, so be careful yourself. "

"Well, I will." Yu Gan said meaningfully, "I still have to rely on my wife's care these days."

Wu Xi's expression froze, and he said coldly, "You can go."

"Are you chasing me?"

"Such a big thing happened last night. Don't you think there is a problem if you are late in the morning?"

Wu Xi's answer made Yu Gan lose his temper, curled his lips, got up and left, "Let's go."

Looking at Yu Gan's handsome back, Wu Xi was still puzzled.How on earth can a person advance to such a terrifying level in such a short period of time.

After knowing Yu Gan for so long, Wu Xi has indeed watched Yu Gan gradually become abnormal step by step.

Can't figure it out, can't figure it out at all.

Yu Gan took off his outer clothes to reveal his flying eagle suit, took out his black gauze hat and put it on, and then left the mansion in a big way, walking on the street in the direction of Dali Temple.

The road was also peaceful and quiet, nothing changed from before.Zhu Chen's death obviously didn't spread among the people, or even if it did, it didn't matter.

The people who have lived in Tai'an City all their lives have always believed that Tai'an City is the safest city in the world, and no matter how big the storm is, it will not be crushed.

When he came to Dali Temple and walked in the temple, Yu Gan obviously found that the gloomy and gloomy atmosphere in the temple had dissipated a lot.Apparently, Zhu Chen's risking his life made the people in the temple feel a lot better.

But looking at the relaxed look of the deacons in the temple, Yu Gan was a little puzzled.It stands to reason that Zhu Chen must be very busy for such a big matter.

After all, there were so many things to check, but they all seemed to be fine, at least they were pretending.

Yu Gan shook his head and smiled helplessly, and walked straight to Shaoqing's place. When he arrived downstairs, he saw Bai Xingjian sitting there eating a burrito.

He directly waved at Yu Gan.

Yu Gan walked over, nodded and said, "Boss."

"Last night, where did you go after leaving the banquet? Siqing asked me to look for you, but I have been looking for you but I have not seen you." Bai Xingjian asked directly first.

Yu Gan replied, "There was something wrong with my practice yesterday. I was afraid of making a fool of myself at the banquet, so I left first. I went back to the princess mansion to recuperate."

Bai Xingjian was taken aback, stopped eating the burrito, and looked at Yu Gan up and down. "Always in the princess mansion?"

"Yes." Yu Gan nodded, "Is the boss busy?"

Bai Xingjian looked at Yu Gan meaningfully, and shook his head, "It's nothing serious, you know that Ji Cheng used the life and death order last night, right?"

"I heard about it this morning." Yu Gan nodded.

"That's the matter, you can go to Si Qing now, he wants to see you."

"Okay, over there, I'll go first." Yu Gan nodded with a smile, turned and left here.

Soon, Yu Gan came to the attic where Chu Zheng was. He looked up at the empty attic, thought for a while, and then stepped in.

On the third floor, Chu Zheng was standing by the window alone, looking at the Dali Temple outside the window with his hands behind his back.

Yu Gan stepped forward lightly, cupped his fists and said, "Mr. Chu, are you looking for me?"

Chu Zheng turned around slowly and looked at Yu Gan, looking at the young Yu Gan in front of him, and asked, "Where did you go after you left the palace last night?"

Yu Gan calmly repeated what he said to Bai Xingjian just now.

"In the princess mansion all night?"

"Yes, Mr. Chu, I have been adjusting my cultivation." Yu Gan looked up at Chu Zheng and said proactively, "I probably heard about what happened last night in the morning.

That Zhu Chen is really dead? "

"Well, dead. Beheaded by a rank three swordsman." Chu Zheng replied.

Yu Gan was stunned for a moment, and asked, "Mr. Chu, can you tell me about the investigation results last night?"

Chu Zheng nodded, and said everything he had learned from last night.Yu Gan breathed a sigh of relief after listening.That is not the slightest doubt on himself.

As expected, Lu Qianqian and the Holy Mother were directly investigated as Yu Gan thought, and Yu Gan naturally wasn't worried about this at all.

He just didn't expect that in the eyes of these people, the one who killed Zhu Chen was a peerless sword cultivator in the third-rank Dacheng realm.

Yu Gan couldn't help but feel a little proud that he, who drives the battle with the spirit of a fairy, can leave such a strong vision on people.Then, in the future, I can use this sword cultivator's identity to do things that are usually inconvenient without any scruples.

"Zhu Chen died, you seem very happy," Chu Zheng said.

Yu Gan withdrew his thoughts and nodded frankly, "I'm quite happy, although I don't know which peerless swordsman did it, but I'm quite grateful to him.

At least, Mr. Gu's vengeance should be avenged. "

Regarding Yu Gan's remarks, Chu Zheng didn't feel that it was inappropriate, but just nodded and continued, "There is actually one more thing to ask you."

"Mr. Chu, please speak." Yu Gan cupped his hands and bowed.

"Last night, apart from the second-rank celestial being who came later, one came before." Chu Zheng said slowly, "The second-rank celestial being who came earlier was a female ghost cultivator.

He secretly spied on Zhu Chen and his party from high above the sky, and was later forcibly taken away by Elder Ke.The old man wants to ask you, what do you think is the origin of this second-rank celestial being, and why he secretly spies on Zhu Chen and the others. "

Yu Gan was stunned when he heard that the second-rank celestial, human and ghost cultivator was still a woman.

The world's ghost cultivators have long been in decline, and there are not many third-rank cultivators. At present, Yuehua is probably the only one who has a second-rank realm.

Yu Gan learned this from the conversation between Yuehua, Li Xun and Kongru when he was in the Zhaixing Building.

In other words, there is a high probability that this second-rank female ghost cultivator is that Yuehua layman.

Because she happened to appear outside Tai'an City, and happened to spy on Zhu Chen and the others secretly, there is a high probability that this is basically the only possibility.

Thinking of this, Yu Gan instantly understood.

Yuehua could only be sent by Li Xun to secretly protect Zhu Chen.It is impossible to kill Zhu Chen.Because if Li Xun really wanted to kill Zhu Chen, he would have killed him long ago, and he wouldn't wait until now.

Before, Yu Gan originally thought that Li Xun didn't want to kill Zhu Chen, and all his actions, including beheading the imperial decree, were just for the official forces of Dali Temple and Daqi.

At the same time, he wanted to gain public opinion, and at the same time wanted to keep Zhu Chen to negotiate terms with Nanyang.

At that time, Yu Gan thought there was a [-]% chance of this, but now that he knew that Yuehua wanted to secretly protect Zhu Chen at the scene, the possibility was [-]% chance.

Then everything would make sense, including the fact that Zhu Chen escaped from prison so easily, it was probably all secretly done by Li Xun.

Damn, dog emperor, your eyes are really dirty.

Yu Gan felt indifferent in his heart.

If it wasn't for Ke Zhenbang taking Yuehua away, Yu Gan wouldn't have dared to imagine what might have happened after last night.With Yuehua in his care, there was no possibility for him to kill Zhu Chen at all.

The emperor's abacus really jingled.

Dali Temple has contributed a lot to the Daqi court for more than 1000 years. Is he really not afraid of the heart of Dali Temple?

Even if there are factors of chaos in Nanyang, but you, the emperor of Qi, do such a thing, it's really stupid.

However, Yu Gan can't tell Chu Zheng and the others about this news now.Because Yuehua and Li Xun traded back then, the former specially activated the power of the field, and everyone present did not know about it.

Only you and Kong Ru know.

If he told Chu Zheng that the ghost cultivator was Yuehua and had a cooperative relationship with Li Xun, then it would not be able to explain that he was safe and sound in the field of the second-rank celestial man and ghost cultivator.

And most importantly, Yu Gan didn't want the old man to know about Li Xun's operation. If it spread, it would collapse people's hearts and plunge the entire Dali Temple into turmoil.

So, at least for now, it's not a good time to speak out.

Although Yu Gan knew that with Chu Zheng's wisdom, he could guess Li Xun's role in this matter, but there was no real evidence after all.

Without real evidence, you can still lie to yourself.Yu Gan couldn't bear to see Chu Zheng, who had been working hard for Daqi all his life, suddenly knew that this was true.

The scale of this matter should be controlled by yourself first, and the steelyard should be controlled by yourself first.

Now between Daqi and Dali Temple, Yu Gan's heart is absolutely inclined to the latter, with ensuring the orderly inheritance and safety of Dali Temple as the first priority.

So let's not talk about this matter, then Li Xun and Dali Temple can still appear to be of the same mind for the time being, but the monarch and his ministers must also be of one mind.

The current Dali Temple is completely like a lonely minister. If Li Xun really has some murderous intentions, he will be very passive.

Therefore, assuming that Dali Temple is completely ignorant of what Li Xun is doing secretly, it maintains a superficial peace for the time being.Set aside time to ensure your own development.

As long as one's own strength goes up, then the right to speak will be in his hands again, so that Dali Temple will not fall directly into absolute passiveness.

Thinking about this, Yu Gan became more and more cold in his heart.Let's maintain this superficial appearance of a monarch and minister for the time being.Everyone rode a donkey to read the libretto.

"Mr. Chu, is that Ghost Cultivator invited by King Nanyang?" Yu Gan casually gave an answer.

Chu Zheng shook his head, and said, "Probably not. The second-rank evil cultivator later on was the one. The mere land of Nanyang can't afford to enshrine two second-rank heavenly beings."

Yu Gan pondered, "Then we can only continue to investigate and see."

"En." Chu Zheng nodded, then hesitated for a while, and finally asked with a slight sigh, "Yu Gan, I'm asking you.

If one day, there are two difficult choices in front of you, will you stand unconditionally on the stand of Dali Temple, or will you choose the rules and rituals in the eyes of outsiders. "

Yu Gan was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect Chu Zheng to ask such a far-fetched question.But he didn't think too much, but looked at Chu Zheng very seriously and said.

"Mr. Chu, I don't understand the general principles, and I don't pay much attention to rules and etiquette. Dali Temple treats me as much as a mountain. If there is such a situation as you said, Mr. Chu, then I only have one answer.

I will only stand on the side of Dali Temple unconditionally and safeguard the interests of our Dali Temple unconditionally.No one can shake this.

Maybe I, Yu Gan, might have been relatively secular before, and I wasn't exactly a Jibu Yinuo person.But in this case I would have no other idea.Dali Temple is my firmest stand.

Please rest assured, Mr. Chu. "

Hearing Yu Gan's answer, Chu Zheng was slightly taken aback, then lightly patted Yu Gan's shoulder with some relief, and said softly.

"It's good for me to know these words. Don't say that outside, especially if you still have the identity of a consort. You have to remember one thing, outside.

Your Majesty's words are absolute, and my words come after you.Don't show what you just thought in front of His Majesty. "

Yu Gan was silent for a moment, then nodded.

Chu Zheng didn't say anything more, he knew Yu Gan, his wisdom and sophistication.If there are many words, there is no need to say more.

"Okay, it's okay. Forget about what I asked you for today, just go." Chu Zheng sighed inaudibly, and finally said something.

Yu Gan clasped his fists together, "Elder Ke is in the temple."

"I guess I'll be back in a few days, I'm looking for old friends." Chu Zheng replied.

Unfortunately, Yu Ganben wanted to go to the old man to ask if the second-rank ghost cultivator looked like Yuehua, so he could only talk about it later.

Then, Yu Gan asked one last question, "By the way, Mr. Chu, I haven't seen Minister Gongsun since Minister Ji took office. Where did she go?"

"Minister Gongsun has been at home. Her internal injuries are serious and she has been recuperating these days." Chu Zheng replied.

Yu Gan was taken aback for a moment, he had been busy for the past few days, so he didn't notice this at all.I don't even know that my aunt has been recuperating at home now.

Yu Gan knew Gongsun Yan very well, she was a strong woman, and it would be impossible for her to ask for leave for such a few days under normal circumstances.It can only show that her injury must be serious.

It seems that the trauma of forcibly stripping the wisp of fairy spirit from her body was not as light as Gongsun Yan showed before.

Thinking of this, Yu Gan became anxious, and said goodbye to Chu Zheng directly, preparing to go to see Gongsunyan.

He just said goodbye and left, when he walked to the door, he stopped suddenly, turned and asked Chu Zheng. "By the way, Mr. Chu, what did the temple say about Minister Ji's death order?

Minister Ji, after all, he is thinking about the temple, and this life and death order has not caused any serious consequences, can you?"

Chu Zheng directly interrupted Yu Gan's pleading, turned his head and replied with a smile, "Don't worry, Ji Cheng is fine, His Majesty authorized it."

"That's good." Yu Gan clasped his fists.

Chu Zheng turned back, continued to look out the window, and added softly, "By the way, Lao Gu's funeral will be held tomorrow morning, His Majesty said, treat him as a state funeral.

But Lao Gu didn't like these troublesome things, so he simply did it in the temple according to the original plan.

The coffin will be supported by you, come early tomorrow. "

Yu Gan fell silent, nodded, "Yes, I understand."

Finally, he took a deep look at Chu Zheng's back, which was much more bent than before.

Looking at the appearance of the old man with his hands on the window sill, Yu Gan suddenly realized the question about the choice that the old man asked himself at the end just now.

He clearly used the most obscure words to ask his inner thoughts. In fact, the old man has seen through everything and everything.

In his heart, he actually already had a big case, an answer between Weiwei Daqi and Huanghuang Dali Temple.

For him, an old man who has devoted his whole life to Dali Temple and Daqi, perhaps this moment is the most painful.

Yu Gan hesitated for a moment, but in the end he didn't ask any more questions, sighed lightly, turned around and left.

After going downstairs, Yu Gan looked up at the sun in the sky, and the morning light was as good as before.It seems to be calm now, but I don't know what kind of huge waves will come after Zhu Chen's incident.

Let's see, Yu Gan doesn't want to think too much, Li Xun himself should think about things.

Yu Gan left Dali Temple directly, and then rushed all the way to Gongsunyan's residence, he wanted to visit his aunt first.This stubborn old woman keeps everything to herself.

Soon, Yu Gan came to Gongsun Yan's small courtyard, the courtyard door was locked, Yu Gan lightly knocked twice, but there was no response from inside.

Without thinking too much, Yu Gan turned over and went directly into the yard.Looking at the familiar courtyard decoration, Yu Gan didn't feel the slightest aura of Gongsun Yan.

She is not here now.

Yu Gan was a little puzzled, where did the auntie go, without thinking too much, sat down at the stone table, took out a paper talisman and sent it back to Huang Sili, asking someone to ask Gongsunyue where Gongsunyan is now.

After finishing, Yu Gan sat here and waited patiently, glanced at the yard, guessing that no one came here for a few days, because there was a lot of dust here.

Not long after, a talisman paper crane flew back leisurely, Yu Gan opened it and looked, it was Gongsun Yuehui's,

Gongsun Yan is now cultivating in her family, that is, in the Gongsun family's family.There is also an address attached to it.

After getting the answer, Yu Gan got up and prepared to go to Gongsun's house.To be honest, after knowing Gongsun Yan and Gongsun Yue for so long, Yu Gan has never been to Gongsun's house.

I don't know much about the Gongsun family, I only know that the Gongsun family is a very low-key family, and the family is passed down through martial arts, and the background is also very good.

The Gongsun family's main family is not in the inner city, but in a quiet place in the outskirts of the southern city.

Yu Gan didn't know why, but he felt a little guilty for no reason, and always felt that it was a little strange to go to Gongsun's house like this.Really guilty.

Yu Gan rubbed his chin, collected his thoughts a bit, and then walked outside the south city.

There was no rush in terms of time, so Yu Gan stopped a carriage and drove leisurely to the outskirts of Nancheng.

The outside of the South City is not dominated by entertainment venues like the outskirts of the West City. It is quieter here, and there are many manors among the mountains and dense forests.

Most of these manors are the headquarters of the famous family forces in Tai'an City.

It's a bit like the kind of rich people who move to the suburbs to live.But Yu Gan also knew the reason.After all, the entire city of Tai'an was surrounded by a large formation.

If the family is placed in Tai'an City, in case of an emergency, they can only be trapped in Tai'an City, and live and die with Tai'an City.

This is not worth it for many family forces.

These aristocratic families with more than a thousand years have either cultivated and studied their families or passed on their families through martial arts. The concept of clan is in many cases far higher than the concept of country.

Therefore, just in case of something like this, they will help their family to be resettled outside the city, and then the manor will also be resettled in the inner city.Prevent redundant selection in some special cases.

Wanting to rely on Tai'an City to suck blood, but also keeping a lot of hole cards and escape routes, these aristocratic families' calculations are more accurate than the other.

The Gongsun family obviously also had this idea in mind, and relocated their family to the outskirts of the southern city.

Along the way, Yu Gan sat on the front of the car and looked at the left and right sides, and the lintels of those families looked more profound than each other.

Most of the manors have a history as long as Tai'an City, a big city.Many aristocratic families followed Daqi Gaozu to conquer the world immediately many years ago.

The carriage drove for about half an hour outside Nancheng according to the address given by Yu Gan, and finally stopped far away beside a road full of flowers.

Going forward is the territory of Gongsun's family, and the groom dare not go forward.

Yu Gan directly checked out and got off the car, looked up at the manor hidden in the bamboo forest in the distance, and walked there.
