Chapter 2021

In Bao Xu's study.

As time passed, after an incense stick of time, the whole room fell silent again. Bao Xu and his wife's faces had become extremely ugly, and there was uncontrollable anger in their eyes.

Because the Taoist who was trusted by everyone actually did such a vicious thing behind the scenes, and only arranged an incarnation after more than ten years to let them know that they were going to travel.

"It's so hateful. I didn't expect that the damned worshiper would betray us right under our noses. It's really hateful," Bao Xu stood up and slammed the table, saying angrily, almost shaking the bowl of porridge off.

"Things have already happened. Fortunately, the ancient immortal saved our son, otherwise we would have been kept in the dark until we died." The lady said tearfully.

After hearing Gu Zheng's story and her son's description, she finally realized that it was just a demon cave that had confused them for a thousand years.

"Thank you so much, Immortal Gu. You saved not only my son, but also all of us in the future. As long as I can do it, I can do everything." Bao Xu stepped forward and said to Gu Zheng sincerely.

"Father, it's a little too early to say this now. Let's trick the worshiper out and let Immortal Gu capture him. Everything will be clear, and Immortal Gu's goal is to completely eliminate that group of people." Bao Luan said immediately.

Although there is still some time before dawn, he still has to leave some time for Gu Zheng to observe.

"Immortal Gu, you are really noble and upright. I will make arrangements now." Bao Xu was in awe when he heard his son say this, and said to Gu Zheng.

They didn't think their son was lying. The feeling of blood connection could not be cut off by anyone.

After Bao Xu finished speaking, he left the room immediately. He had to prepare a little bit and couldn't let the other party suspect anything. It happened that the previous incident of the family could be used as a breakthrough point, and the other party would not suspect anything.

But his eyes were red, and they were filled with endless anger. However, he knew that he could not do anything to the worshiper, and he could only catch him with the help of Gu Xianren.

"Gu Xianren, why don't you sit down and rest?" The lady said to Gu Zheng.

"No thanks, I have some things to do outside, so as not to let the other party find out some clues. I ran away before, which just gave you some time."

After Gu Zheng finished speaking, his whole figure disappeared here.

After he came here, he found the yard where the other party was hiding. The reason why he did not act rashly was that he could not find the other party's traces. Either the other party was too strong, or he had a very powerful magic weapon to conceal himself. Otherwise, he knew the other party's background. If he was weak, he would rush up and solve the other party directly.

As for being strong, it is impossible. Strong people will never do such things.

"Luan'er, let me see you, you've lost weight. It's your mother who feels sorry for you. She sent you to the magic cellar and almost killed you." After Gu Zheng left, the noblewoman's tears carefully flowed out, and she took a step forward and hugged Bao Luan tightly.

Just now, she just held back. When she heard the other party's suffering, even if the other party deliberately downplayed some things, she could think of the other party's suffering. She supported the other party to go in, but she didn't expect that he almost hurt her child. How could she not be sad and afraid, but Gu Zheng was there just now, suppressing herself.

"Don't worry, mother, I'm blessed and lucky, it's not that easy to die." Bao Luan counted his nose and carefully shed tears.

He really thought he was going to die in there, but God had eyes and let Gu Xianren rescue them.

The sky was just getting bright, and the crowing of the cocks rose and fell, and the whole city also carefully rose, and the whole city began to be noisy.

In a separate courtyard of the Bao family, which is not much smaller than the main courtyard, Li Li woke up from meditation and walked out of the courtyard, breathing in the turbid air. The haze in his heart did not go away, but became more serious.

"It seems that I am still anxious during this period. I need to rest for a while. More haste makes waste."

Thinking of the recent difficulties in cultivation, Li Li felt a little depressed. The stagnation of cultivation made him a little unhappy, but he also knew that he could not force it, otherwise it would be counterproductive.

"Next time, the other party must give me more benefits, otherwise I will progress too slowly."

Thinking of the boy who sent money, he felt better and prepared to go out to find other friends.

"Li Xianren, the master has something to ask you."

At this time, the voice of a servant suddenly came from outside.

"What's the matter?" Li Li opened the outer door and walked in without any respect for the Bao family.

Who made him a high and mighty immortal, while these people were just ordinary people, and only the Bao family member who was much weaker than him could let him take a look, even though he was once one of these ordinary people, but who made him have immortal fate, naturally different from them.

"I don't know much, but the head of the family said that the head of the family has agreed to your last request." The servant said with some fear.

The offering in front of him is not a good man. Although he will not kill you, if you don't follow his wishes, beating you up is considered light.

"Haha, it seems that it's really time for me to come out of seclusion." Li Li smiled when he heard it, "Then go back and tell the head of the Bao family that I will be there soon."

Seeing the servant turn around and leave, Li Li returned to the yard, exhaling a trace of turbidity from his body. He still had to be reserved, even if he only needed a few breaths to get there.

Bao Xu was in the living room, waving back to convey the message to the servant. He turned to look at the exquisite jade box beside him. Inside was a treasure that they got a long time ago. The worshiper had been coveting it for a long time, and he wanted to prevent the other party from coming. , you must find a sufficient reason, otherwise you would never have found the other party so early.

"Uncle, do you think that worshiper will accept me?"

Next to him, a boy who was only five years old was asking nervously and cautiously from the side.

"Definitely. Your father has come to me several times before, but the time has not come yet. Don't worry, your qualifications are not bad, and with this baby, you will definitely make the other party agree. It just depends on how much you can learn. Yourself." Bao Xu smiled warmly.

Yesterday, he found the boy's father overnight. After informing the other party, the other party was very shocked. After hearing his intention, he carefully agreed. He will be prosperous and suffer losses. Naturally, he will not do this. That kind of irrational behavior.

He brought the boy here, but at this time he would not tell the other party the cruel truth. He was trying to comfort the boy. He didn't know if the other party was staring at him, so his words would naturally not reveal any flaws.

"I will definitely follow carefully, just like my brother Bao Luan, I will be a hero when I grow up." The boy happily raised his arms and imitated fighting, looking like he could do it.

"Okay, okay, but the first thing is to learn patience, otherwise there is nothing I can do if you fail the first test." Bao Xu said in a coaxing tone.

After the boy heard this, he was still a little restless, but he immediately sat upright, his eyes stopped looking around, and he looked very obedient.

The boy waited for an hour, his body trembling slightly, trying to hold on, his eyes still staring at the door, as if the other party would walk in from the front door the next moment, see his persistence, and accept him.

Bao Xu looked at the other party, but he couldn't bear it. Just when he wanted the other party to rest, the voice that was very familiar to him appeared.

"Master Bao, I have some temporary feelings over there. I'm really ashamed that I made you wait longer."

As soon as the words fell, Li Li's figure happened to walk in from outside, and then walked aside carelessly.

"Wherever, cultivation is the main thing, my side is not important anyway." Bao Xu said cheerfully, as if he had just arrived.

In fact, he was filled with hatred in his heart. What does it mean to wait too long? There was never a time when he didn't wait too long, but the anger in his heart could not be seen from his face.

"I don't know why Master Bao called me here." Li Li just laughed dryly, his eyes fell on the jade box, and a trace of greed flashed before he said seriously.

"Pretend, you really can pretend. Let's see if you can be so leisurely after a while."

Bao Xu stood up, brought the boy next to him up, and came to Li Li, "This is a junior of my clan, and his talent is pretty good. It's a pity that he didn't have a chance last time, and I don't know next time." If you have to wait for as long as you want, please accept him. Naturally, you won’t let your efforts go in vain.”

"It's easy to say, easy to say. Since it is the head of the Bao family who has spoken, I will naturally not refuse. However, I am usually busy and may not have much time. I am really afraid of delaying this proud man." Li Li's face became a little ashamed. Make excuses for your usual inaction.

"I know I don't have much time to worship. This is a treasure I got by chance. Please take care of it." Bao Xu took the jade box and handed it over with both hands.

The small jade box is only the size of a palm, with exquisite patterns engraved all over the body. A special aura cannot escape, making people wonder what is hidden inside.

"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey. I will take good care of this boy. Please rest assured, Master Bao." Li Li pretended to be ashamed and could no longer maintain it. His face showed great joy, and he stretched out his hand to grab the jade box.

"Please take care of yourself, Immortal Li. The sun will reward you." Bao Xu took the boy and took a few steps back, still saying.

"Easy to say, good."

Li Li didn't pay attention to their actions at this time. He followed his mouth carefully, and his eyes were all attracted by the jade box in his hand. He grabbed it with one hand and drove the other one upward.

Faced with this thing that he had dreamed of, it was not easy to snatch it away. Now it finally belonged to him.

"Bang"

A ball of cold air suddenly burst out from the jade box, freezing Li Li with lightning speed. However, the jade box in his hand was empty, with nothing in it.

Bao Xu looked nervously in front of him. The jade box had been swapped by Gu Zheng and turned into a trap. Naturally, there was no treasure inside, but it was a trap.

"Bang"

At this moment, Li Li, who was frozen, suddenly exploded into a ball of white mist inside, and then disappeared into the ice.

Bao Xu was shocked when he saw it and shouted immediately.

"Ancient Immortal!"

It's a pity that the ancient immortal is no longer here. In the sky outside Yancheng, Li Li's body appeared again, a little cautiously from below.

"You dare to trick me, but when did I get exposed? I will look back on you later."

"There's no turning back for you." Gu Zheng's figure slowly emerged from the side, looking at the other person and sneering.

"Damn it!" Li Li's eyes suddenly shrank when he saw Gu Zheng, his whole body turned into a ball of white mist again, and he wanted to escape from here.

But he was shocked to find that his body could no longer move, and a drop of cold sweat dripped from his forehead.

"I worked so hard to put you here, but I don't want you to really leave. You'd better follow me down." Gu Zheng waved his hand, and a fine golden fishing net appeared beside him, surrounding him and wrapping him up. into a zongzi.

Then the figures of Gu Zheng and Li Li fell rapidly downwards. Just as they fell, several figures quickly took off in other directions in the city and flew in different directions.

But their figures had just left the city and were frozen in the sky.

"It's really easy to lure him out. I knew he wasn't the only one." Gu Zheng came to a bound human woman and said, "This beautiful lady is nothing but a thief."

The woman in front of her was frightened and frightened, and she wanted to break free, but there was a huge difference in strength between the two, so she was arrested by Gu Zheng according to the law.

"Master Bao, why is the worshiper of the immortal missing?"

Below, the boy looked at Li Li in front of him and followed cautiously.

"We'll talk about this later." Bao Xu was a little worried, why didn't the ancient immortal take action and let the other party run away? If the other party retaliated, there was nothing they could do.

"Brother, come out and take a look. Someone is coming down from the sky."

At this time, the boy's father burst in like a whirlwind from outside and said to him.

Bao Xu quickly ran out after him and saw Gu Zheng carefully falling from the sky, and behind him were five or six bound men and women.

"Eh? Isn't that an offering from the Hei family? Why did you get caught?" Bao Xu saw Li Li in front of him at a glance, and then he felt relieved. Then he discovered that the person behind him was so familiar, and he was surprised.

But at this time, he also understood why the other party didn't take action here, obviously because he was afraid of hurting them, and he felt even more grateful.

But he was still wrong. In fact, Gu Zheng only let the other party go in order to attract others. Yesterday, he used half a day to set up a dragnet around the city. Without his permission, no one could escape from the city.

"I don't know. Could it be that they are all together? The other party is going to end up in that deserted yard. Let's go over and take a look."

"My son, you go home first and don't ask about anything else,"

The boy just followed him out. Before he had time to ask about his apprenticeship, he saw his father and the head of the family leaving in a hurry again, leaving only a few words of arrangement. I walked to the place where I wanted to go, hoping that the other person would turn around and take me there with him.

When Bao Xu arrived here, he found that his wife and son had already asked some guards to guard the entrance, shooing away the handymen and others who wanted to watch the fun.

"Father, you came just in time. The ancient immortal has captured all of them." Bao Luan said excitedly when he saw Bao Xu.

"Well, madam, you stay outside. I'm afraid the other families will come over after a while. Just let their heads in. If you have anything to do, come in and ask." Bao Xu made arrangements and went in with his bag.

As soon as he entered, he saw those offerings, but all the offerings from other families appeared here. He was secretly surprised. No wonder no one noticed that everyone was from the other party. He even saw another person. His own people trained by the family were also among them, which frightened him greatly.

But I wondered again, if all these people were tempted by the other party, this city was completely in the other party's pocket, and no one could resist, why would they still be sneaky and rely on such slow efficiency.

But he didn't speak, because Gu Zheng had already taken out a long sword that looked very powerful. Under the bright white light, countless silk-like white rays of light were constantly piercing into the void all around, and he didn't know where he was. What are you doing? Just stay aside.

After more than half an hour, the movements in Gu Zheng's hand stopped. The long sword was still suspended in the air, and the light on the hilt was still flashing, maintaining a blockade on the nearby area.

"Are you here?" Gu Zheng turned around and said to Bao Xu and the others.

"Ancient Immortal, are they all each other's accomplices?" Bao Luan couldn't help but ask.

"Although I am not sure, the other party wanted to run away immediately. Even if he is not an accomplice, there is an inescapable relationship."

Gu Zheng naturally knew which one of them was the other person's real friend. There was something strange about the other person. It was impossible to detect the other person with spiritual consciousness. Only by looking at the naked eye could he find traces of the other person. However, The difference in strength is too big, and this little trick cannot escape his grasp.

"Ancient Immortal, husband, the family heads outside do not agree to come in alone and insist on bringing some people in." At this time, Bao Xu's wife came in and said anxiously. She is a womanly person and is really not good at dealing with them. deal with them.

"Humph, we can't help them at this time. Although this place is big, so many people come in and delay the ancient immortal. What if the other party's crowd still hides enemies and they leave if they don't want to? I'll go and talk to them." Bao Xu thought for a moment. , or prepare to take action on your own.

"Master Bao, you are so majestic. Even if this is your home, you can't stop the Immortal."

He had just taken two steps when a man with a big belly walked in carelessly, with a lot of disdain in his tone, as if he didn't take him seriously at all.

Bao Xu's face darkened immediately, because the other party was a powerful family with this strength, and there was a real one behind him. He was borrowed from the outside world and came back. His strength was very powerful even among the worshippers. No one dared to provoke him. He usually looked down on others. If it wasn't for the worshipper who was invited back in time with great effort, at least the situation would be worse.

But now it seems that all the worshippers are implicated, and it seems that it will be really difficult in the future.

"Bang"

"Noisy!"

Before Bao Xu spoke, Gu Zheng said lightly. The man behind the man changed his face and raised his hand as if he wanted to block something, but as the voice fell, his body suddenly bent, and then the whole person flew backwards.
