Chapter 1175 Xuanyuan Lingwei’s Request
At the west end of Guangling City, next to a quiet street, there is a house with an extremely large area.
There are no high walls and red tiles here, only a small stream surrounding it. The stream has many branches, all flowing deep into the yard.
There is a thick mist surrounding the depths of the yard, and I don’t know what kind of formation it is, but it can actually block the exploration of Tongxuan realm monks.
In the eyes of ordinary monks, this house is extremely mysterious, and they have no idea who its owner is. Only a handful of monks in Xuanyuan City knew that this was an estate owned by the sixth princess, Xuanyuan Lingwei, and would only be moved here when receiving distinguished guests or discussing secret matters.
At this moment, a tall man wearing a cloak came outside the gate of the house.
The two monks at the door seemed to have been waiting for his arrival. They did not speak after meeting, they just bent down and saluted, then turned around and led him towards the inner courtyard.
After passing through several corridors and small bridges, the tall man came to an antique pavilion.
The two people who led the way before retreated wisely.
There were only two people left in the quiet pavilion, one was a tall man who had arrived as promised, and the other was an exquisitely dressed woman in palace attire.
"Master Liang, you are impatient. I was about to send someone to invite you, but I didn't expect you to come here first." The woman in the pavilion smiled.
A chuckle came from the tall man's cloak, and then a hand pulled off the cloak, revealing the face underneath, it was Liang Yan!
"Liang came here uninvited today because he has something to ask your highness for help."
When Liang Yan said this, he paused slightly and continued: "But before that, , I’m a little curious, what’s the matter with you sending someone to ask me?”
“Sit down and talk”
Xuanyuan Lingwei stretched out her hand and pointed, dignified yet somewhat casually. Liang Yan nodded after hearing this and sat down as he was told.
“Remember what I told you about the Rakshasa Demonic Cow last time?”
“You are already fully prepared?” Liang Yan was slightly surprised.
"Yes, the trip to Jiuyun Mountain is approaching. I was about to send someone to invite Mr. Liang, but I didn't expect to receive your message in advance, so I simply arranged to meet Mr. Liang here."
Xuanyuan Lingwei smiled slightly and continued: "Can you tell me now the purpose of your trip?"
"I would like to ask you to help me investigate a person." Liang Yan said solemnly.
"Who?"
"Commander of the 'Sky Fire Camp', Ningyang Xia!"
Hearing this name, Xuanyuan Lingwei's expression did not change much, she just looked at He looked at Liang Yan and asked in a calm tone: "Why do you want to investigate him?"
"This is not something your Highness needs to worry about."
Liang Yan shook his head, as if he didn't want to say more.
"Your Highness just needs to help me find out why he purchased a large amount of the two medicinal materials 'Ghost Talk Flower' and 'Zhu Snake Fruit' in Guangling City, and who he gave these medicinal materials to later."
Xuanyuan Lingwei After hearing this, he pondered for a moment and said calmly: "Commander of Tianhuo Camp, that is directly under the command of General Tianwei. You are quite courageous, and you actually dare to find out about him."
Liang Yan's expression did not change, he just smiled.
“If this matter is not difficult, Your Highness will not be troubled. I wonder if Your Highness can help me with this?”
"It's not impossible to help you investigate"
Xuanyuan Lingwei smiled and said: "It's just that you have to go to Jiuyun Mountain with me first and help me catch the Rakshasa Demonic Cow. As long as this goes well, I will use my connections in the Xuanyuan Army to help you investigate Ningyang Xia's movements."
After hearing this, Liang Yan frowned.
“When does Your Highness plan to leave for the trip to Jiuyun Mountain?”
“Early tomorrow morning.”
"Okay!" Liang Yan nodded this time, without any hesitation on his face.
"Since His Highness means what he said, Liang will not hesitate and will go with you to Jiuyun Mountain first. I hope that after catching the Rakshasa Demonic Cow, His Highness can fulfill his promise, Help me pursue this matter with all your strength."
The reason why he answered so simply was because he had his own considerations.
Eavesdropping outside the Taoist temple that day, Gou Qi and the old man with an eagle nose once mentioned the "city lord" and the "informant". Judging from the level of cultivation of these two people, the "city lord" must be Qishan One of the city lords of the twelve cities, and definitely not the city lord of Xuanyuan City.
They were obviously eager to go back and report someone, but they did not continue on their way. Instead, they took a detour to Xuanyuan Region and came to Guangling City, where the answer was ready to come out.
"With the hawk-nosed old man's injury, he is currently unable to return to the city!"
That's why they came to the place where the "Wentai Treasure Fighting Conference" was held, because they wanted to see the gathering of chambers of commerce here. Purchase as many life-sustaining herbs as possible on the road.
Judging from what was observed outside the Taoist temple that day, the hawk-nosed old man's injuries had penetrated deep into his bones. Only relying on the 'Ghost Talk Flower' and 'Red Snake Fruit' sold by the Smell the Incense Chamber of Commerce, The quantity is still not enough.
If nothing else happens, Ningyang Xia will purchase these two medicinal materials from other chambers of commerce in the past few days.
In other words, I still have a few days left.
It's just that in the past few days, it was impossible to find out clearly by myself and the Wenxiang Chamber of Commerce. Only by relying on the Sixth Princess Xuanyuan Lingwei and using her connections in the military to help investigate, could there be any possibility.
Liang Yan thought about the whole thing with just a slight thought, so when faced with Xuanyuan Lingwei's request, he agreed without hesitation.
After hearing this, Xuanyuan Lingwei showed a hint of joy on her face, nodded and said: "Don't worry, Master Liang. Everyone in Xuanyuan City knows that I, Xuanyuan Lingwei, will never break my promise, as long as you help me Get the Rakshasa Demonic Cow. I will help you investigate Ningyang Xia clearly."
"Okay!" Liang Yan also had a look of satisfaction on his face. In fact, he was also a little curious about why Xuanyuan Lingwei got the Rakshasa Demonic Cow.
Although this woman is well hidden, Liang Yan's "Eight Parts of Yanyuan" is so magical that she can still see some details about the other party.
He is almost certain that Xuanyuan Lingwei is not practicing thunder-based Taoism. If this is the case, why is he so interested in a monster with a thunder attribute?
However, Liang Yan would not ask this question out loud. After all, Xuanyuan Lingwei did not inquire about his purpose. It was just a transaction between them. If he asked too many questions, it would inevitably arouse the other party's suspicion. Suspect.
The two reached a consensus and seemed to be in a good mood. They each had a drink in the pavilion, and then heard Xuanyuan Lingwei speak again:
"Actually, Jiuyun Mountain is not an ownerless land. There is a sect on the mountain called 'Luofeng Temple'. These days, I have been sending people to contact the temple director and sent a lot of treasures. After many negotiations, I finally With his approval, we are allowed to enter the forbidden area of Jiuyun Mountain and capture the Rakshasa Demonic Cow hidden there."
"Luofeng Temple?"
Liang Yan's eyes showed a hint of surprise. color.
You must know that there are very few Buddhist sects in Antarctica. There is only one famous "Luotian Mountain". Apart from Luotian Mountain, there are no major Buddhist sects at all. What is the origin of this small Luofeng Temple? Xuanyuan Lingwei needs to negotiate many times to get permission before she dares to go up the mountain?
"It seems that this Luofeng Temple is not a small sect." Liang Yan looked thoughtful.
"You are wrong." Xuanyuan Lingwei smiled slightly.
“Actually, the abbot of Luofeng Temple is just a monk in the early stage of Tongxuan, and his magical powers are average. Moreover, Luofeng Temple is not an ancient sect. The temple itself, He is not worthy of such respect from me, Xuanyuan Lingwei."
"Oh? Is there something hidden in this?" Liang Yan said with confusion.
“This matter has some twists and turns. The first abbot of Luofeng Temple was named Master Xuanqing. This man was just a wandering monk in the Golden Elixir realm. At that time, he took a fancy to the treasure land of Jiuyun Mountain. , I wanted to establish a sect here, but I didn’t expect that there were already people living in this mountain.”
Xuanyuan Lingwei said slowly at this time:
"The man living in the mountain is also a monk, with a weird temper and profound magic power. Master Xuanqing knew that there was a huge difference in strength between the two, and was about to say goodbye and leave, but he did not expect that the man actually agreed to establish a sect in the mountain, and Promise never to interfere."
"From that day on, the sect of 'Luofeng Temple' It was founded on Jiuyun Mountain, and the strange monk did not interfere. On the contrary, he promised to teach magical powers every thirty years."
"At that time, Master Xuanqing had an apprentice beside him, and they both had one after another. I studied Buddhism from an eccentric monk, but it was a pity that Xuan Qing’s deadline was approaching and his qualifications were not enough, so I couldn’t He broke through the Mysterious Pass, and finally sat in Jiyun Mountain."
"But the disciple he accepted was extremely intelligent. After receiving the guidance of the weird monk, his cultivation progressed rapidly, and he finally broke through the Mysterious Pass and became enlightened. In the process of cultivation, he has surpassed the founder of the sect, Master Xuanqing.”
“ Today's Luofeng Temple is very prosperous, with eight hundred disciples, and the master of the temple is the disciple of Master Xuanqing, whose name is "Jingru". However, there is an iron rule in Luofeng Temple, and that is Jiuyun Mountain. No one can approach the forbidden area at the back of the mountain, because it is a place of cultivation for eccentric monks.”
After listening to Xuanyuan Lingwei's description, Liang Yan pondered for a moment,
"There is actually this past. So, Jiuyun Mountain is divided into two sections, of which the front mountain is under the control of Luofeng Temple. Does the back mountain belong only to that weird monk?"
Liang Yan paused for a moment before saying, "If my guess is correct. , is the Rakshasa Demonic Cow you are looking for in the back mountain of Jiuyun Mountain?"
"Yes!"
Xuanyuan Lingwei nodded and said: "According to me over the years? According to the tracking, the strength of the Rakshasa Demon Bull should have reached the peak of Tongxuan. It sneaked into Jiuyun Mountain a few years ago and hid in the back mountain.”
"Then the monks in the back mountain must be of high cultivation, right? Otherwise, why would you spend so much time negotiating with the people from Luofeng Temple?" Liang Yan asked again.
"It is true."
Xuanyuan Lingwei said with a serious face:
"Although this weird monk has been living in seclusion in Jiuyun Mountain, from some things that happened back then, It is inferred that this person is likely to have He has entered the realm of calamity, and the reason why he is hiding in Jiuyun Mountain may be to cope with the calamity. Even I must give due respect to a strong man of this level and not rush in. "
< br>“I understand.”
Liang Yan nodded. After listening to what Xuanyuan Lingwei said, he finally understood a little bit.
This trip to Jiuyun Mountain is definitely not just about dealing with the Rakshasa Demonic Cow. At the critical moment, I may have to act as her bodyguard.
Xuanyuan Lingwei is a careful and thoughtful person. That night, she was hunted down by the Confucian God General. She had no choice but to use several trump cards. Although she finally escaped calmly with the cover of the Princess Mansion, she still managed to escape. Xuanyuan Lingwei's keen sense of smell should have guessed some of her own strength.
In her mind, I am afraid that she has already regarded herself as the number one person under the generals.
Learning that there might be monks from the Tribulation Realm stationed on Jiuyun Mountain, Xuanyuan Lingwei also wanted to find a helper for herself, so that if the negotiations failed, she could at least retreat safely.
"Why don't you send some divine generals to help?" Liang Yan was silent for a while and then suddenly asked.
"Young Master Liang thinks too simply. Although I am the princess, the twelve divine generals are important weapons of the country. I usually only listen to my father's orders. Even if I meet the prince's son and grandson, I can't do it. No matter what etiquette, I want to be respectful to them, and I will dispatch them wherever I can."
When Xuanyuan Lingwei said this, there was a hint of helplessness on her face. With a smile on his face, he slowly said: "Among the twelve divine generals, only Divine General Wu An is willing to give me a little favor, but he is not in Guangling City now, and the government is controlled by the second brother. If I rashly Bringing General Wu An here may arouse the suspicion of the second brother."
"That's it."
Liang Yan nodded, feeling clear.
Although Xuanyuan Lingwei has many subordinates, the master who can take charge is not around, so he looks for an "outsider" like himself to help.
"Besides me, does His Highness have any other helpers?"
"There is also Sun Qianli. There is also a master in the tribulation realm in the family chamber of commerce he took over. At that time, we will rely on the two of us to work together!" Xuanyuan Lingwei said with a smile.
Liang Yan also felt relieved when he heard that there was a helper in the Tribulation Realm.
Although he thinks that his current strength has far exceeded that of Tongxuan Realm, after all, he has not yet fought a life-and-death battle with a monk in the Transformation Tribulation Realm, and he is not sure to what extent his strength has reached.
According to Liang Yan's estimation, he should be able to fight against the monks who have overcome the first difficulty. As for whether he can defeat the monks who have overcome the second difficulty, it is hard to say.
And this kind of fight must be when he has exhausted all his cards, and when it comes to that point, either you die or I die. This is obviously not what Liang Yan wants to happen.
Liang Yan was of course happy to hear that there was a monk who was in the Tribulation Realm traveling with him, and he would be the one to come forward when the time came. He only needed to help in secret, and that was enough.
"Okay, this matter is settled. Tomorrow morning, Liang will definitely come to keep the appointment." Liang Yan had no problem now, stood up and cupped his hands.
"Then Ling Wei would like to thank Master Liang. We will meet you tomorrow morning ten miles outside the city!"
Xuanyuan Lingwei stood up and returned the gift, then clapped her hands. Immediately, servants walked out of the thick fog and sent Liang Yan out of Zuixiang Pavilion
