Chapter 2586 (two thousand five hundred and eighty-six) a while
Tie Wandao had met some alchemists before and heard similar statements from other alchemists. He roughly guessed what Le Yu meant by "receiving" and felt that what Le Yu said was quite credible.
Tie Wandao thought: According to Li Pingrun's description, that person did appear alone in the basement of Muxi Pavilion. Even if she can only do this, won't she take someone with her? When I met her on the road today, she had someone with her.
Tie Wandao planned to ask Leyu, but naturally he couldn't directly tell her that she went to Muxi Pavilion alone. Doing so would expose what he had seen with the alchemist before.
So, he pretended not to know who had appeared in the basement of Muxi Pavilion, and asked, "Were they those people in the hall outside who entered Muxi Pavilion with you?"
"No." Le Yu said, "I went in alone. The alchemist told me that I, who is related to my grandfather, should go to Muxi Pavilion alone."
"You can lead your men to the entrance of Muxi Pavilion, and then enter Muxi Pavilion by yourself?" Tie Wandao said.
"The alchemist said that it would be okay for others to follow me out of Shengrui Hall, but they could not appear within three miles of Muxi Pavilion within half an hour before and after I silently recited the incantation in the basement of Muxi Pavilion." Leyu said.
"Oh? Did the alchemist tell you why?" Tie Wandao asked.
"I told you. The alchemist said that if those people who usually communicate with me also come to that place, they will affect my aura when I recite the spell silently." Le Yu said.
Tie Wandao had visited some alchemists before and had seen things like this, so he could understand what Le Yu said.
"In other words, if you bring people with you, they will not be able to go any further when they are about three miles away from Muxi Pavilion." Tiewan Dao said.
"Yes." Leyu replied. "Did you bring anyone with you when you came to Rui Palace?" Tiewan Dao asked.
"I brought someone with me," Leyu said. "They walked with me for a while, and then waited for me three miles away from Muxi Pavilion."
"Did you know where the entrance to the basement was before entering Muxi Pavilion?" Tie Wandao asked.
"No." Le Yu said.
"Did the alchemist tell you now?" Tie Wandao asked.
"Yes, the alchemist told me the approximate location. After entering Muxi Pavilion, I looked for the place the alchemist told me and found the entrance to the basement." Leyu replied.
"What happens next?" Tie Wandao asked.
"I went in through that entrance, and then I found a blocked passage. I knew that was the specific place the alchemist asked me to find." Le Yu said, "I followed the alchemist's instructions and faced the blocked passage. I used the Palm Yu Tongjie Kung Fu on the thing in the passage, and at the same time silently recited the incantation taught to me by the alchemist. After finishing what I wanted to do, I left Muxi Pavilion and walked back to the place three miles away from Muxi Pavilion. The people who were waiting for me went back to Shengrui Hall with them."
Tie Wandao thought: That's it. It's exactly the same as what Li Pingrun described before when he saw what he saw from the Observation Fan. However, Le Yueyang doesn't know magic, so who cast the spell for Muxi Pavilion? Could it be the alchemist who asked Le Yueyang to go there?
Tie Wandao asked: "After you go back, will the alchemist still be controlled by the people from Shengrui Palace?"
"Yes." Leyu said, "Since my grandfather fainted and woke up and fell asleep again, the alchemist has been controlled by the people from Shengrui Palace."
