Controlling the Five Thunders and the Two Worlds

Chapter 233 Contacted
Two days later, Gu Zhao was greeted by the return of several experienced Taoist priests.

Accompanying them were a young girl in a light blue pleated skirt with water patterns and a dignified expression, and a burly man in a tight-fitting outfit with a solemn face.

"This woman is Bi Yingying, the younger sister of the Master of Bishui Pool," Master Shenhao introduced.

Bi Yingying and Mo Wei were also somewhat surprised to see Gu Zhao.

They were already surprised when they learned that the Great Luo Palace was a group of pure mages, but their surprise only intensified when they saw Gu Zhao.

After they wiped out the White Bone Cave, they visited Daoist Yihong and Daoist Yansong at Bishuitan. They were all elderly and virtuous masters with gray hair and beards. They assumed that the master of the Great Luo Palace was similar.

But I never expected that the person I met today would be a young man who looks to be only in his twenties.

The two could tell that Gu Zhao hadn't reversed his aging process; he was simply young. Whether it was his eyes or his demeanor, although he already possessed the air of a sect leader, his youthful nature was impossible to hide.

"Bi Yingying greets the sect leader." Bi Yingying bowed gracefully.

"Please rise." Gu Zhao gently lifted Bi Yingying up from a distance. "No need to be so formal. There are many female disciples in the Daluo Palace. You can visit each other more often."

Not to mention Bai Ke and Hu Yufei, who are the most active in the palace, another rabbit spirit, He Cailian, was recently taken in. Master Ming Chong said that she is extremely familiar with all kinds of herbs and has helped a lot in the alchemy hall.

There are more and more female demons in the palace these days!
Speaking of female demons, Gu Zhao thought of Li Qingshuang, with whom he had a one-night stand. On that day, she transformed into a bluebird and flew back to Jiangbei, saying that she would return as soon as possible after reporting back to the Ling Court.

It's been almost half a year now, why haven't they come back yet?
……

Bi Yingying was also a spirit lord. Although she was a bit indifferent, she was able to quickly become friends with several female demons because Bai Ke and Hu Yufei were both lively.

Then she met Zhuo Qingyan.

Zhuo Qingyan smiled and looked at Daoist Shenhao, "I didn't know that my master uncle's painting skills are so profound. I will need to give him more guidance in the future."

Master Shenhao laughed and said, "Since the young lady's painting is already excellent, why should this old Daoist comment?"

Just kidding. Master Shenhao is old, but not stupid. Every time Zhuo Qingyan paints, she pulls Gu Zhao along. The two of them are all lovey-dovey. Why should I interrupt?

Zhuo Qingyan pulled Bi Yingying over, "I heard that you also love painting, so we can exchange ideas more often in the future."

Bi Yingying saw a painting of a spring outing hanging on the side wall and realized that Zhuo Qingyan's painting skills were not only superior to her own, but her style was also particularly to her liking.

“Thank you, sister. I have no one to talk to in the Green Pool,” Bi Yingying replied.

……

Leaving aside Bi Yingying's quick integration into the Daluo Palace, let's just say that Gu Zhao once again led several old Taoist priests to the modern world to make phone calls.

Master Yihong is the abbot of the Daluo Temple in Changping Prefecture. He is not usually at the Daluo Palace, but now that he has returned, he naturally wants to take the opportunity to contact his relatives and friends in the modern world.

He walked through the research building, turned on his phone, and saw a lot of information pop up on it.

This was normal, and Master Yihong didn't mind. Then he saw the message sent by Master Yiguan.

"Senior brother, return immediately upon seeing this!"

Master Yihong frowned and dialed Master Yiguan's number. "Junior brother, what happened?"

Master Yiguan held his phone, looked at the exquisitely crafted sandalwood bracelet on his wrist, pondered for a moment, and then spoke frankly, "Someone has discovered the magical effects of the Golden Gang Bracelet and wants to invite you back to Yandu."

In a monitoring room not far from Baiyun Temple, someone took off their headphones, unable to bear listening any longer.

A person next to him slapped his forehead and said, "I knew it."

Their original intention was to ask Master Yiguan to find an excuse to lure Master Yihong to Yandu, so that they could talk things out face to face and that it would not be detrimental to Master Yihong.

But to their surprise, Master Yi Guan didn't play by the rules, betraying them with his very first sentence. The other person's heart pounded; he pressed down on his earpiece, listening intently, "Let's hear what Master Yi Hong has to say?"

On the phone, Master Yihong was silent for a moment, then suddenly laughed and said, "They didn't expect you to be so blunt, did they?"

Master Yiguan nodded. "But I won't lie to you."

Master Yiguan and Master Yihong have been fellow disciples for over half a century. Although one of them has cultivated internal energy and travels around all year round, while the other has limited talent and has always been practicing meditation in seclusion, their relationship has never changed.

Regardless of whether the person who approached him had any ill intentions towards Daoist Yihong, Daoist Yiguan would not use deception to lure Daoist Yihong to Yandu for questioning.

“They want to talk to you face to face so that there will be no misunderstandings.” Master Yi Guan also spoke kindly. “I trust them, but they don’t know about the relationship between you and me. I think that not hiding anything is the only way to show sincerity.”

Then he heard Daoist Yihong laugh and say, "We sent out so many golden bracelets, and it's only now that they've discovered this, which means our safety situation is still pretty good!"

"Huh?" Master Yiguan was taken aback.

Everyone in the monitoring room: ???

At this point, Master Yihong asked again, "Do you know who had the accident?"

Master Yiguan shook his head. "I don't know."

Master Yihong didn't mind. "Let them call me, and I'll talk to them."

“Okay.” Master Yiguan immediately agreed.

Master Yihong hung up the phone and said to Gu Zhao, who had overheard their conversation, "We've been discovered."

Gu Zhao nodded, "I can finally relax."

Master Yansong smiled and said, "I wonder whose relatives or friends were exposed, and what happened?"

“It’s either Yun Yang or Ming Chong,” said Daoist Ming Yu. “They have the most relatives and friends, and they’ve given away the most gold-plated bracelets.”

Gu Zhao pointed to himself, "And me too!"

Several old Taoist priests sitting in the pavilion of the research institute all burst out laughing.

"It's a pity that Yunyang and Senior Brother Mingchong aren't here, otherwise we could have had them call and ask," Master Qingyuan said sincerely.

The six old Taoist priests who were visiting Bishuitan were the ones who returned to Daluo Palace this time. The others were still on the mountain doing chivalrous deeds and did not return with them.

"They don't need to call and ask; someone will tell us later," Master Yihong said with a smile.

Gu Zhao scanned the area with his divine sense and said, "They didn't put anything in the research building."

Master Mingyu laughed and said, "We're not enemies, otherwise they wouldn't have had Master Yiguan call my senior brother. They could have chosen a more discreet and secure method."

As soon as he finished speaking, Master Yihong's phone rang.

Master Yihong answered the phone, "Hello?"

"Hello, Master Yihong." A middle-aged man's voice came from the phone. "It was only after Master Li Yunyang's father was in a car accident that we learned about the protective effects of the Golden Gang Bracelet."

Before Master Yihong could ask any more questions, the man added, "Mr. Li Chang'an is fine, but the semi-trailer's cargo box was dented."

"No wonder." Master Yihong nodded with a smile. "What else do you know?"

The middle-aged man didn't hide anything, exclaiming, "I can summon wind and rain! I can ride the clouds and mist!"
