Chapter 468: Observe for Now and Continue Retreat
What a medical practitioner, this kind-hearted doctor just happened to be walking in the mortal world, and just happened to encounter the red star flying through the sky, leaving behind the unconscious woman...
It must be said that there are so many coincidences that Du En wants to complain a little.
Bai Ji himself is obviously aware of this, and now he smiled bitterly and took the initiative to say: "I also feel that all this is too coincidental, as if some master is specifically targeting me. I have been uneasy in my heart, but now that I see you, I feel relieved."
He flattered him lightly, and he himself said so many coincidences, which also made him seem to be an innocent victim.
Du En did not comment on this, but he naturally observed it just now, but the result was the same, without any abnormality.
So he turned to ask Zhu Yi some things.
Mainly, the diet, medication, physical condition, etc. when walking with Bai Ji, which was more detailed than the old doctor's consultation. Some topics were very private, and Zhu Yi couldn't help but blush shyly when asked.
However, she also knew the pros and cons, and did not hide anything, answering every question.
After finally answering, she glanced at the people around her with concern. She did not see any strange expressions on their faces, so she knew that Du En still took privacy into consideration and concealed the content of their conversation, so she was slightly relieved.
Then she secretly glared at her brother.
Because Zhu Qing seemed to be quite free, he probably trusted Du En too much, so he could still think about it, and then he showed a general look of being happy to see it. In short, it seemed inappropriate.
"It seems that there is nothing suspicious."
"Thank you, sir, for your wisdom, you really see the slightest detail..."
Bai Ji did not have the relaxed and trusting mentality of Zhu Qing. He knew very well that if there were any doubts that were difficult to explain, his life would probably be at stake.
Although the city lord in front of him was obviously very different from the previous city lords, he was definitely not as kind and naive as Zhu Yi. This could be seen from the fear of the notorious old guards.
And Du En's performance seemed to confirm this speculation.
——Faced with Bai Ji's praise, his eyes were calm and he just stood there waiting silently.
The atmosphere quietly became tense, and Bai Ji was very tactful to shut up. Although he was somewhat confident about his actions, he became quite uneasy and suspicious unconsciously.
Just when this atmosphere was brewing and developing to the point where the Zhu brothers and sisters were thinking about whether to ask for mercy, the head of the guards finally came back in a hurry.
"Your Majesty! We have carefully investigated and verified that there is indeed a person named Bai Ji in the city. The records and inquiries in various aspects can basically match the number!"
Du En glanced at Sheng Zhaoshui again. The other party had a solemn look and nodded slightly to this side, indicating that the situation was like that.
It is precisely because there is no doubt in the whole process that it seems full of doubts!
"How about killing them one by one?"
After a long silence, An Shen considered again and again, and still made this suggestion.
It is in line with his action concept that if it is really impossible, only some people can be sacrificed to achieve the goal.
So kill them one by one until there is a sign of change.
But what if you kill them all and kill the wrong ones, what should you do then?
Du En did not directly ask this question, but directly said: "No, continue to prepare first, and don't do anything for the time being."
"..."
Faced with Du En's mature opinion of waiting and watching for the time being and using static to control dynamics, An Shen hesitated to speak, glanced at Sheng Zhaoshui who had returned to his side at this moment and seemed to agree with both methods, and finally did not say anything, acquiescing to this decision.
After all, it is not a good time to create internal divisions.
But if it really takes too long, he is not the kind of person who will only passively obey orders.
What a troublesome teammate.
Du En couldn't help but complain in his heart.
Then, while Bai Ji was waiting anxiously on the opposite side, he said: "The current situation is very special. You will all live in the city lord's mansion from now on!"
Bai Ji breathed a sigh of relief and felt that he had passed this level, but then he thought of something and his expression was a little tangled and hesitant, but in the end he still bit the bullet and said: "My lord, your majesty, this, I have some patients in the secular world, waiting for medicine..."
"Send someone to send them, and make sure to cure them."
Du En waved his hand directly and arranged this to the head of the guards.
Suddenly, Bai Ji showed a relieved expression.
But in fact, anyone with a discerning eye could see that he was still a little nervous.
Alas!
I can only hope that this city lord is kinder than the rumors, and will not hurt his life in the end...
He thought so.
Du En observed.
In short, the three of them temporarily live in the City Lord's Mansion.
After personally arranging far-away accommodations for them, the head of the guards wanted to monitor Bai Ji, but was rejected by Du En. Instead, he asked all kinds of people to vacate their positions and isolated Bai Ji, as if he were on an isolated island.
At this point, he also wanted to ask An Shen to set up some formations and prohibitions to further confine the other party.
It seems that the main suspicion is still here, but the Zhu brothers and sisters are openly loose and secretly tight, and there are other means to use, which can be said to be fair.
"...This approach seems to be lukewarm and slow."
Anshen only said this in response to the request, his eyes moving, and his tone seemed to be natural: "Also, you didn't even think of searching the memory experience directly, but just used the superficial method of questioning and investigation, which really can't guarantee the authenticity."
"Then, choosing soul search and recollection can ensure that it is foolproof and absolutely true?"
Du En only asked this question, causing the god to fall into silence for a while.
Because it can't be guaranteed.
Seeing that he didn't say anything else, he went to arrange the formation and restrictions, and Du En seemed to take it for granted again, looking at Sheng Zhaoshui.
"Okay, okay, I'll do the chores, I'll continue to do the chores."
This guy is very consistent, and he seems to be easier to talk to in normal times.
In short, the general situation is temporarily settled.
After Anshen dealt with the formation and restrictions, he simply returned to the previous retreat and continued to toss and prepare his own methods.
Du En did not go back to retreat directly. Although he also took out the jade slips and began to figure out the secret method, he still paid more attention to the three people.
In the next few days, Bai Ji lived in fear and behaved very normally.
Zhu Yi seemed to have become interested in medicine because of this encounter. She asked the head guard for some related books and then stayed at home to study.
At first, she felt a little strange and alienated in the unfamiliar environment and unfamiliar residence, but she soon adapted to it, and it was almost the same as when she was at home before.
Although her brother Zhu Qing was still thinking about the doubts about his sister, now that he was back, the big stone in his heart fell to the ground.
So he thought about it and felt that he had to take the opportunity to fight for it, so he took the initiative to seize the opportunity at the moment and went to find the head guard who was more caring and optimistic about him, and proposed that he wanted to work for the City Lord's Mansion.
Sheng Zhaoshui was easy to talk to, and Du En didn't care about it. The two stewards had no objections, so the result was quite smooth. As a new clerk trainee in the mansion, he began to learn various things.
"... It's all normal."
After observing secretly for a while, he came to this conclusion.
Du En felt that this was the biggest anomaly, but since the key figures were now under his nose, he was not afraid that the promoters behind the scenes would not reveal any clues!
So, his attention gradually converged on the secret method of Taoism, and he continued his unfinished retreat.
The connection secret method of the Unmelting Ice Soul is a profound secret method called "The Dark Winter Hidden Yang". According to the description, when it is cultivated to perfection, even the real sun can be completely hidden and return to nothingness, without leaking any light or heat.
Obviously, this is the connection secret method selected by Meng Changqing based on Du En's current situation, which can meet his requirements to the greatest extent.
The freezing should be stronger, and the hiding should be better!
With the foundation of the Unmelting Ice Soul, it is not difficult to switch to cultivation.
[Spell: Winter Sun Hiding (Easy to Use 0/50)]
"The training method is simple. As long as I burst out light and heat, I will use this secret method to seal it. Each success counts as one, and ten times counts as one proficiency point."
It looks like ordinary training, without any additional requirements. Isn't it just normal repetitive practice?
But in fact, Du En's current burst of light and heat must at least show the level of immortality. Even if a 10,000-year-old glacier is placed in front of him, it can be evaporated in a very short time, so this kind of training condition is actually quite harsh.
Simple and harsh, the truth is simple and difficult to understand!
Similarly, there is also the training of the sun's true fire. Do you really think that absorbing and refining the essence of the sun is an ordinary and simple process?
That is direct intake and direct refining. Under the explosion, it is equivalent to a sun rising in the body. Even with Du En's current physical and mental endurance, it is estimated that he will be in a mess.
Fortunately, he is resistant to burning. Although the process is predictably painful and difficult, it is actually not a problem.
After finishing the secret method, it was the turn of the four Taoist methods.
Relatively speaking, the difficulty was greatly reduced.
Because it was only the Xuan-grade Taoist method that was changed.
Lifting the mountain was the simplest, because its advanced Taoist method had actually been used by Du En a long time ago, but due to the lack of an overall framework, it was not paid enough attention before and was not specially sorted out, so it was still the same.
Now with the results of the predecessors' multiple corrections in front of him, he almost succeeded in practicing it just after reading it.
[Spell: Moving Mountains (Small Achievement 0/100)]
The practice of this Xuan-grade Taoist method is still so simple, just carry the mountain and lift the weight. Although this mountain has changed from a single mountain to a mountain range with at least 500 bases, Du En's body is now holy, let alone a mountain range composed of 500 mountains, even if it is composed of thousands of mountains, he can easily lift it up!
So he can kill the ghost of the monument that seems to be of the same level, or even higher than his realm, so he can do it so easily.
Because it only seems that both of them are weaker than the Tianjiao, in fact, whether it is the Yuanshen or the physical body, they have already stepped on the threshold of the Tianjiao. With the joint explosion of the two, it is also possible to squeeze in for a short time.
"But in practice, it is not so troublesome, there is already a ready-made mountain to carry."
What mountain?
Kongsang Mountain!
The weight of this sixth-level blessed land is much higher than any mountain. He feels that he should be just right for carrying it.
After completing the lifting mountain, he struck while the iron was hot and turned to the half-earth Taoist method of killing wind and sand.
Its advanced version was finally chosen as "Gua Sha Xuan Chen". The name sounds strange, as if it was also a mysterious Taoist method created by Cheng Ru Zhen Jun.
Gua Sha Gua Sha still retains the principle of killing wind and sand, or in other words, the former is the principle of entry, and only after it is fully mastered can the latter be continued.
Xuan Chen.
Xuan means mysterious, and also the color of Xuan, which is similar to black.
Dust, sand and dust are on the surface, and there is dust inside, which contains a high and wonderful mind.
Blow up the killing wind, bring up the sandstorm, black sky and black earth, directly covering the heart!
From body to mind, from outside to inside, from shallow to deep... In short, it is more advanced and it is also smooth to practice.
[Spell: Scrape the Mysterious Dust (Easy to Use 0/50)]
"Just easy to use, well, that's normal, after all, Ju Yue's series is mainly simple and rough, and the level is so high that it can be smooth all the way to the final heavenly Taoist method, Driving the Stars."
Du En was quite satisfied with this, and then his eyes turned to the giant statue.
To be honest, the advanced Taoist method here is also a simple type of stacking, not the previous giant statue, because now he has mastered the puppet, and there is no need to carve and do fancy things on it.
What's more, fancy things are not easy to do, which will increase the difficulty of liver training. Overall, the cost performance is not high, and there are overlaps and repetitions, so it was abandoned.
And then matched with the current flesh and blood body, so after the change, it is now the Taoist method called "Dragon Subduing True Image".
——As the lion's big mouth bitten the True Lord, it is actually the number of choices, and the specific Taoist method has not been determined, so Meng Changqing can change the choice at the right time, and even make a lot of tricks in it to try to fool the other party.
In short, as the name suggests, it can be perfected and can rival and conquer a real dragon!
"However, the giant spirit statue has been changed beyond recognition. What will it be like after further training? A giant robot fighting a real dragon?"
Duen was thinking about this while taking a break from his busy schedule.
Then he worked hard to conquer it and successfully completed it.
[Spell: Dragon Subduing Statue (Small Achievement 0/100)]
"Hmm... Why do I feel that it is mixed with Buddhist things?"
After really realizing and learning, Duen felt that it was a bit wrong, with some different background. If it weren't for the Samadhi in front and the Vajra in the back, it actually had a lot of Buddhist methods, I'm afraid I really couldn't figure out the taste of it.
"In other words, there will be two routes to extend in the future, the immortal gate and the Buddhist gate, the Buddha..."
When he thought of the Buddhist gate and the Buddha, he thought of his experience in the Queguang Star Realm.
False Buddha, the hell of wishing, the river of tears of all beings, the great compassion demon...
