I Can’t Be a Sword God

Guanghanzong first searched Ziyuan before notifying Chaotianque of the matter.

After all, such a secret lair that has existed for an unknown amount of time may store some cultivation resources, and those people from Utsunomiya may not be able to clean up all of them because of their hasty escape.

It's a pity that the search results disappointed them. There was nothing useful in that tomb-like lair. Its scale is as vast as a royal palace, and there are many places of extreme luxury for pleasure.

But for these cultivators, some...

In addition to being disgusting, it is still disgusting.

The clues inside show that these people have done many dehumanizing things inside.

Later, Chaotianque's people came here and conducted a more detailed investigation.

The conclusion is that this is indeed the remains of the Yu Dynasty.

At this time Li Chu had already returned to Yaowang Town, and when he talked about the matter with Changchun Old Man and Xuanhu Weng, the two old genius doctors knew more than he imagined.

"Unofficial history records that the fortunes of the Yu Dynasty and the country were on the verge of internal and external troubles in the past. But suddenly, regardless of national power, a hidden imperial tomb was built for the old emperor who passed away. No one knows where this imperial tomb is located, and no one I know why it costs so much money. This incident also indirectly accelerated the fall of Yu Dynasty."

After the matter was settled, Xuanhu Weng also talked eloquently:

"Thinking about it now, it should be that the court physician at that time had found the formula of the elixir through inhumane experiments. And that Ziyuan was not a big tomb at all, it was the palace of eternal pleasure built for himself by the reigning Emperor Yu Dynasty at that time. Place."

"The so-called immortal medicine..." Changchun old man said in a deep voice: "It is just to take advantage of the characteristics of the worm to take people's life expectancy. They first impregnated the young woman, then implanted the worm in her body, and used the secret medicine to induce the worm to combine with the fetus. , to form a stillbirth that robs the mother's body of life. The last elixir... should be made from this stillbirth."

Li Chu frowned when he heard the words, "Such behavior is more abhorrent than evil spirits that suck people's lives."

"That's right." Changchun old man nodded and said, "So when I got a glimpse of the door, I immediately destroyed all the materials about the elixir. Thinking that these people have used this method to exist in the world for thousands of years, it really makes people shudder."

If it wasn't for the fact that someone poisoned those mothers this time, which involved Long Jueling seeking medical treatment, and old man Changchun happened to have this insight... I don't know how many people those villains will continue to kill.

"It's a pity that they didn't catch them all this time." Li Chu said again.

"Don't worry about this. It's fine if no one knew about it before. Now that the imperial court has known about it, Chao Tianque will naturally step up the search and arrest in the world. It's fine if they hide honestly. If they try again , should not be able to escape." Xuanhu Weng comforted.

"Don't you have to worry if the imperial court intervenes?" Changchun old man sighed meaningfully, "I'm even more worried."

Xuanhu Weng looked at him, as if he had realized something, his expression became serious.

In this world, the better people live, the more they want to live forever.

...

The next day, another group of people came to Yaowang Town.

These people were all dressed in brocade clothes, with two colors of Zhu and Xuan, holding high avoidance signs, and carrying a small sedan chair.

The person in the sedan chair comes from Chaoge.

Legend has it that in the imperial city, there has always been a supreme existence in the world. Or a certain beast, or a certain master.

This is also a very reasonable guess. After all, if there are not enough high-level people in the imperial city, the emperor of the Heluo Dynasty will not be able to sit still.

And among all kinds of guesses, there was a name that was the chief eunuch of Jinyi Division, Feng Qianxi.

Feng Qianxi has served two generations of kings, and has never left the deep palace for fifty years. She has considerable determination in the imperial city. The so-called Royal Jinyi Department is actually in charge of him alone.

He never went out of the palace, and his nine godsons always walked outside instead of him. As long as he bears the name of Feng Qianxi's adopted son, even the big officials of the frontier will be in awe when they see it.

This time the one who came was one of Feng Qianxi's adoptive sons.

"My maidservant's name is Feng Wu, and I'm here to deliver an oral order for His Majesty." A tall, feminine and handsome young eunuch got off the sedan chair and said to Lang Yuguan who came to greet him.

"The fifth father-in-law has worked hard, but the master is still refining alchemy, and there is no leisure at the moment, please wait a while." Lang Yuguan said.

"This oral order is not for the old genius doctor Changchun, but...for a little Daoist Li." Feng Wu smiled.

Official Lang Yu was startled, and took Feng Wu to look for Li Chu again.

When Feng Wu saw Li Chu, his eyes suddenly lit up, "I heard that Daoist Li's appearance is extraordinary and refined, but when I saw him today, I am really amazed."

"Thank you, Eunuch, for your compliment." Li Chu nodded in appreciation.

Then he looked at Feng Wu indifferently, not knowing what oral message he was going to convey.

The emperor's words to himself... Presumably it has something to do with the matter of Utsunomiya and Ziyuan this time.

"Your Majesty heard about the deeds of Taoist Priest Li the day before yesterday..." Feng Wu said.

"Oh?" Li Chu was a little surprised by this, but after thinking about it for a while, it was not surprising.

After all, among the people I have come into contact with, there are many singers who are now in court. There are also a few who can get in touch with the emperor.

"Since the national teacher returned from Jiangnan, he has always been full of praise for you. Nowadays, there are not many people who are often around His Majesty who don't know the name of Daoist Li." Feng Wu smiled lightly.

It really was Li Maoqing.

Li Chudao: "It's all just absurd praise from the national teacher."

"The destruction of Udu Palace this time was reported by Chao Tianque, and it was almost done by Daoist Li alone?" Feng Wu continued.

"The main reason is that they are thieves who are cowardly and flee before fighting." Li Chu is not greedy for credit, and honestly said: "I only made a small contribution."

"Xiao Daoist Li, don't be humble..."

Feng Wu shook his head, and said: "Your Majesty heard about this, Longyan was overjoyed. Immediately decided to reward Daoist Xiao Li with ten thousand taels of gold."

"Um?"

Li Chu's eyes lit up slightly.

The current emperor of the Heluo Dynasty... is indeed a wise king.

"It's just..." Feng Wu turned around a bit, "Your Majesty ordered that you want to honor this bounty. You have to wait for the Immortal Gate Imperial Examination, and Daoist Li, go to the Gemian Sheng in person to get it."

"..."

The light in Li Chu's eyes faded back.

Without thinking about it, you can guess that it must be Li Maoqing's idea.

He has stayed in Deyun Temple for so many days, and he knows the correct way to get along with him... With this move, he is obviously forcing himself to go to Chaoge City when the time comes.

In fact, Li Chu didn't mind going to the bustling capital, but what Li Maoqing's purpose was... still needs to be considered.

Serving for the imperial court or something, I have already clearly rejected him, so he probably won't mention it again. Participating in any immortal imperial examinations is even more meaningless.

I really couldn't figure him out for a while.

Seeing him pondering for a while, Feng Wu didn't bother with him about etiquette, and left immediately.

When dealing with these otherworldly cultivators, being too rigid about etiquette is an act of humiliation.

The verbal instruction was very short, and logically speaking, the matter had been finished, but Feng Wu still stayed in Yaowang Town, and it was said that he would rest for a night and return tomorrow.

Li Chu looked at the pharmacy where old man Changchun made medicine, and vaguely felt that his purpose of coming here might not be so simple.

Any bounty or verbal instructions given to myself may be just in name. The real purpose lies elsewhere.

...

In the slightly heavy Yaowang Town, Wang Longqi was probably the only happy person.

When the crystal clear life-shaping pill was freshly baked and delivered to him, he was so moved that tears filled his eyes.

Picking up the life-shaping pill, he said with a sigh of relief: "It is all thanks to my good brother Li Chu that I am today. Over the years, you were there when I was sucked by female ghosts, and you were there when I was about to be killed by monsters." When, when I was poisoned by the demon cultivator, you were there..."

"The medicine won't be effective when it's cold." Changchun old man said lightly, immediately blocking all the rest of his words.

Wang Longqi didn't dare to ink any more, and immediately swallowed the elixir in one gulp.

Then with a thud, he raised his head and fell to the ground again.

"This is..." Li Chu looked at Old Man Changchun.

"The life-shaping pill will reshape the body like this. He will wake up in about a day and night. At that time, there should be no serious problems." Changchun said with a smile.

"It's fine." Lao Du dragged Wang Longqi's leg and brought him back to the attic.

Li Chu looked at Old Man Changchun, and asked in a low voice, "The messenger in the palace..."

"It's okay." Changchun old man smiled and shook his head, and said, "Don't worry, Daoist Li, we old fellows will never do anything unclean. No one can force us."

"Um."

He said this calmly, but Li Chu could also feel an invisible pressure. But since old man Changchun said so, he can only nod slightly.

...

"ah!"

Wang Longqi yelled and woke up suddenly.

"Seventh Young Master, are you awake?" A black face poked beside him, "How do you feel?"

"I feel great." Wang Longqi smiled and asked again: "How long have I been in a coma?"

"One day and one night." Old Du said: "The old genius doctor is extremely accurate."

Wang Longqi looked at the sky outside, the sun was setting, and hurriedly said: "No, I almost missed it."

After saying that, he immediately put on his clothes and rushed out, almost turning into smoke.

"Oh."

Old Du exclaimed, this life-shaping pill is really miraculous, it can turn a half-dead person into a runaway wild dog in an instant.

The smoke ran all the way to another attic not far away.

On the second floor, Wenxiang was waiting anxiously, when suddenly there was a knock on the door.

"Miss Wenxiang! It's me! The Wang Longqi you've been waiting for!"

"The connector?" Wen Xiang hurriedly raised her head, got up and opened the door, "You're finally here!"

"Yeah..." Wang Longqi rushed in with a happy face, "I can finally give you what you want!"

"Is the time ripe?" Wen Xiang raised her eyebrows.

After waiting for the mission for so long, she finally got to know it, and she was actually a little more inexplicably nervous. She stood up, closed the door and window, and checked left and right, being careful to be careful that the partition wall had ears, before she turned her head.

"What task was assigned to me on the mountain? It took so long to..."

In the blink of an eye, her words stopped abruptly, and then the subject changed, startled and angry.

"What are you doing naked!?"
