Garrison "My name is Li Shiming. I came to Zhongdu to participate in Chunwei, and I am preparing to participate in next year's Immortal Ascension Conference!" Li Shiming did not dare to make any changes. He honestly reported his identity and the purpose of coming to Zhongdu.
"Where did your cultivation come from? Why do you linger around the imperial city?" Gu Jia asked in disbelief after hearing that he was here to participate in the Immortal Ascension Conference and also to participate in Chunwei.
"I found a book in the back garden of Nanling Mansion. I cultivated it according to the cultivation method in the book. I came to the imperial city just to see it!" Li Shiming replied with 90% truth and 100% false.
"Nonsense, without a spirit environment, you can't even get started, how can you reach the second level of Qi refining?" Gu Jia's face darkened, and a pressure fell on him, and he shouted in a deep voice.
Li Shiming only felt a weight all over his body, and his body couldn't help but shorten, almost lying on his back in the carriage.
"Two months ago, two immortals went to Nanling Mansion to investigate a case, and then left inexplicably. At that time, the two immortals lived in the mansion. I found some spiritual stones in the room after the two immortals left. I used spiritual stones to cultivate a spiritual vortex." Li Shiming quickly explained.
Gu Jia was stationed in Daxia, so he naturally knew that monks in Nanling Mansion asked for help.
Comparing before and after, we know that Li Shiming's words are generally true.
"How did you know the name Lingshi?" Gu Jia asked with a glint in his eyes as he discovered the loophole in Li Shiming's words.
"I met Brother Fan Yiyang of Tianhaizong, and he told me a lot about the world of cultivating immortals!" Li Shiming replied.
"You still know Fan Yiyang!" Gu Jia said in surprise, then he withdrew his coercion and said with a smile: "I will investigate your matter, but you don't have to worry, as long as you don't lie, it will be very important for you to participate in the promotion of immortality." The conference is good!"
"Thank you for your mercy!" Li Shiming breathed a sigh of relief, straightened his body and cupped his hands.
"Didn't Fan Yiyang tell you that monks can't approach the palace casually?" Gu Jia waved his hand to stop his salute and asked.
Li Shiming couldn't help but shook his head with a wry smile. He didn't tell Fan Yiyang that he was coming to the palace, so how could Fan Yiyang think of saying such things.
He also understood why he was stopped by Gu Jia, a powerful monk. It turned out that he had come to his door.
"Do you have enmity with Prince Shun?" Gu Jia asked suddenly.
"This..." Li Shiming didn't know how to answer this question for a while, and he didn't dare to deceive Gu Jia.
"There's nothing to say about this, he's just a prince in the secular world!" Gu Jia said with a big laugh.
From his words, Li Shiming heard his disdain for the secular royal family.
It's just that Li Shiming couldn't figure it out, since he looked down on the secular royal family, why should he be stationed here?
"I was assassinated by the assassins sent by Prince Shun's mansion last night!" Li Shiming knew Gu Jia's attitude, so he replied without concealing it.
"Haha!" Gu Jia laughed again, as if he had heard something ridiculous.
Yes, it sounds ridiculous to Gu Jia. The secular Prince Shun sent an assassin to assassinate a monk, even if the monk only has the second level of Qi Refining, this is also an extremely ridiculous thing.
The ridiculous thing is naturally Prince Shun. Gu Jia thought that if Prince Shun knew that the target of the assassination was a monk, he might not even be able to sleep peacefully.
"You can't do anything near the palace. In addition, if you have other means, try not to use your spiritual power. If you cause trouble, I won't take care of it!" After laughing, Gu Jia said indifferently.
Li Shiming was taken aback when he heard that, he didn't expect Gu Jia to help him.
"Thank you senior!" He bowed and thanked.
"Don't call me senior, we are all in the Qi refining period, you call me Dao brother, when you join Tianhaizong in the future, you have to call me senior brother!" Gu Jia said with a wave.
He is old and mature, and he can tell that what Li Shiming said is probably true, and it is easy to investigate.
As long as Li Shiming's net worth is clean, and Li Shiming has reached the second level of Qi Refining after practicing alone for more than two months, joining Tianhaizong is not a problem.
On this point, Gu Jia and Fan Yiyang have the same opinion.
The monks who can be arranged to come to the secular world are either monks with extremely poor talent like Fan Yiyang, or half-retired monks like Gu Jia. There is no room for improvement in this life.
The task of stationing in the world is not dangerous, and you can get rewards and offerings from the royal family.
Such monks have a characteristic, that is, they hope to make friends with talented seedlings, and even invest in them.
All monks have to care about old feelings, no matter whether this kind of concern is for others to see, or to stabilize one's own Taoism, after the monks have achieved success in practice, they will thank the monks who have helped them.
"Thank you brother Dao for your guidance!" Li Shiming changed his address.
"Little friend, go back first, and contact me in a few days!" Gu Jia waved at Mo Yan while talking.
Then his figure disappeared inexplicably, and there was no one in front of the carriage.
Li Shiming was shocked in his heart, but he kept watching, but he didn't see how Gu Jia left.
If there is a conflict, he probably doesn't even know how he died.
With some helplessness, he put his consciousness into the space of the computer room, where there were five 'white phosphorous bombs' and five 'thermite bombs' in the box, but he couldn't even move it before.
Even if the 'white phosphorous bomb' and 'thermite bomb' are taken out, they cannot be thrown out, they can only be destroyed together.
Even if he is not sure of his end, Gu Jia's speed is too fast, he can't see clearly. In this case, the chance of hitting Gu Jia is too low.
"Master, someone is blocking the way!" Mo Yan came to his senses, his mind was still a little unclear, and he said to himself.
"Hey, where's the person?" He quickly realized that there was no one in front of him, and exclaimed.
"Don't yell, go back!" Li Shiming ordered in a deep voice without explaining to him.
Mo Yan was driving the carriage, looking back at the place just now from time to time, his mind was very confused, what happened before seemed to have happened, and it seemed like nothing happened.
Li Shiming sat in the carriage, thinking about Gu Jia.
Unlike Fan Yiyang, Fan Yiyang was just a chance encounter on the road, and I don't know how long it will be until the next meeting.
As for Gu Jia, who is permanently stationed in Zhongdu, the most important thing is that Gu Jia is also connected with the Immortal Ascension Conference.
Li Shiming must have a good relationship with Gu Jia just because it is related to the Immortal Ascension Conference.
Other than Lingdao, the only thing he could sell was Lingcha.
He didn't really want to take out the spiritual rice, because as long as Gu Jia investigated his past, he would know that he couldn't grow spiritual rice.
The one hundred catties sold to Fan Yiyang can also be explained as an accidental acquisition, but it is somewhat difficult to explain if a lot of Lingmi is taken out.
Although the spirit tea is a fake spirit tea, it is the best thing he can produce with his identity.
