Zhu Tian: A journey of spiritual practice starting from Joy of Life

Chapter 70: Looking for the Key Lin Gong was killed
Wu Zhu's face remained expressionless as he listened to Leng Feibai's words.

After a moment, Wu Zhu said, "Lin Gong, don't we need to kill him?"

"He can no longer threaten Fan Xian, and Fan Xian is madly in love with Lin Wan'er. If it's not necessary, it's better not to kill Lin Gong. And..."

Leng Feibai's face showed the gloomy feeling unique to villains, "I think someone will kill Lin Gong for us!"

As soon as these words fell, Wu Zhu gave up the idea of ​​killing Lin Gong and then asked, "Where did Fan Xian go?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Fan Xian walked in from outside the courtyard carrying a few bags of medicinal herbs.

"came back."

Wu Zhu finished speaking and turned to look over.

"Uncle Wuzhu!"

When Fan Xian saw Wu Zhu, his face lit up with joy. "Sorry, I'm late."

Wu Zhu's face was expressionless, but his tone was still sincere. "I know everything about what happened on Niulan Street. I wasn't even by your side at that time."

Perhaps because he wasn't hurt, Fan Xian didn't yell like in the original novel. He quickly stepped forward to comfort Wu Zhu, saying, "It's okay, uncle. Fortunately, Brother Feibai protected me. I wasn't hurt either. By the way, where have you been all this time, uncle?"

“I went to Jiangnan.”

Wu Zhu held his iron chisel and said, "I vaguely remember discussing this box with the young lady in Jiangnan. I wanted to see if revisiting the old place could bring back some memories."

Fan Xian suddenly perked up and said quickly, "We have a clue."

Wu Zhu nodded and was about to speak when Leng Feibai suddenly interrupted, "Um, do you need me to step aside?"

The two looked at Leng Feibai, and Fan Xian said helplessly, "Brother, this is meaningless. Uncle Wu Zhu and I both trust you."

Wu Zhu ignored Leng Feibai and continued, "I'm sure the key is in Kyoto. To be more specific, it could be in two places. One is in the palace. The young lady has a lot of things, all kept by that old lady."

"old lady!"

Fan Xian's expression changed slightly, and he patted his thigh and said, "You mean the Queen Mother? That's troublesome. The palace is full of experts, and the fourth Grandmaster is right here."

"more than!"

Leng Feibai looked around and confirmed that no one was around before continuing, "I once visited the Imperial Palace at night. The commander of the Imperial Guards, Yan Xiaoyi, was also a ninth-rank warrior. His archery skills were superb and he could even injure a Grandmaster. Furthermore, I suspect the fourth Grandmaster is someone else, and it's definitely not Hong Sixiang who follows the Empress Dowager!"

Fan Xian and Wu Zhu immediately looked over. Leng Feibai shrugged and said, "After the Yishiju incident, a man in black came to my house and attacked me. During the fight, I noticed he had the distinct smell of eunuch urine. It must be Hong Sixiang."

Fan Xian's face was suddenly filled with surprise. "And then?"

"He got hit by my punch and spit out blood!"

Leng Feibai frowned and said, "Then I saw a figure standing on the rooftop spying, so I rushed up and punched him. I ended up spitting blood, but he didn't say much, just took Hong Sixiang away."

Fan Xian glanced at Wu Zhu and then said, "How does his strength compare to Ku He?"

"That person's approach should be a tough one!"

Leng Feibai gritted his teeth and said, "Although it was only for a moment, I could sense that the mental methods practiced by Hong Sixiang and the fourth Grandmaster and the domineering true qi you, Fan Xian, practiced have similarities."

"what!"

Fan Xian stood up immediately, turned to look at Wu Zhu and said, "Uncle Wu Zhu, didn't you say that this manual was left to me by my mother?"

Wu Zhu shook his head and said, "I can't remember clearly, but I seem to remember that this method is divided into two volumes, the upper and lower volumes. You practiced the upper volume, and I can't remember where the lower volume went."

After hearing this, Fan Xian asked, "Uncle, do you still remember what the next volume records?"

"It seems to be a way to resolve the uncontrolled mental state in your body!"

Wu Zhu's tone was distressed, as if he was desperately trying to recall the past. "Uncle Wu Zhu!"

Fan Xian rushed forward and hugged Wu Zhu, saying, "If you can't remember, forget it. Besides, Brother Feibai is here. Even if I get hurt, he can heal me!"

Wu Zhu's emotions gradually calmed down after hearing this. "I'll remember it. I can't trouble Leng Feibai too much!"

"We're a family, there's no need to be so clear about it!"

Leng Feibai quickly asked, "Then where is the second place?"

"The courtyard where the young lady lived back then was called Taiping Courtyard."

Wu Zhu's distressed expression remained unchanged. "But I can't remember the exact location."

"Dad might know."

Fan Xian thought for a moment and said, "I'll go down and ask him, maybe..."

"And one more thing!"

Leng Feibai sighed and said, "There's something I should talk to you two about!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Leng Feibai raised his hand, and the body of the temple messenger found in Shura Palace eight years ago immediately appeared in front of the three of them.

Looking at the clothes and eye mask on the corpse that were similar to Wu Zhu's, and the iron rod in the corpse's hand that was the same as Wu Zhu's.

Fan Xian's expression changed instantly. He raised his head and asked, "Brother, who is this guy?"

Leng Feibai said in a deep voice, "Eight years ago, I discovered a 400-year-old sect site in the Lanzhou area. I found this body there..."

Leng Feibai roughly told Fan Xian and Wu Zhu the origin and reasons for the destruction of Shura Palace, and their expressions changed repeatedly.

Fan Xian turned to look at Wu Zhu and said, "So, Brother Feibai, you suspect Uncle Wu Zhu is from the temple. Then this old woman...ah, I really want to open this box right away!"

Seeing Fan Xian's furious expression, Leng Feibai smiled slightly, took out a jade box from his arms and said, "Fan Xian, this is for you!"

Fan Xian took the jade box and asked curiously, "What is this?"

After saying this, Fan Xian opened the jade box, and a crystal clear red fruit appeared in his eyes.

"Crystal Vermillion Fruit, a legendary elixir that can cure all diseases!"

Fan Xian's face was filled with joy as he asked, "Brother, where did you find this?" "I got this red fruit when I was traveling in Jiangnan!"

Leng Feibai smiled and said, "Back then, a medicine shop owner asked me to go to the mountains to find crystal red fruits to treat his son who was infected with tuberculosis. It turned out that the red fruit tree had four red fruits in total, and I picked them all!"

Although the red fruit was picked by Leng Feibai ten years ago, it has not shown any signs of rot or damage because it has been properly preserved.

Fan Xian was overjoyed and said quickly, "That's good. However, Wan'er is still quite weak and I'm afraid she won't be able to withstand the effects of the Vermillion Fruit. Brother, leave the rest to me!"

Wu Zhu looked at the two little brothers, said nothing, and left the yard silently.

Five days later, a group of people escorted a prisoner van and left Kyoto silently under the contempt of everyone.

The person imprisoned in the prison van was Lin Gong, whose arm was broken and whose face was pale.

On a tall building near the city gate, Lin Wan'er, wearing a shawl, looked at Lin Gong who left in dejection with red eyes.

Fan Xian, who was standing aside, looked at Lin Wan'er, slowly walked forward and held her in his arms, silently comforted her, and sent her back to the royal villa.

But ten days later, a piece of news reached Kyoto that the team escorting Lin Gong was ambushed by horse bandits on the road. The entire team was killed and their bodies were sent back to Kyoto by the local prefect.
