Around four o'clock in the morning of that night, Zhou Jing, Li Jiajia and I finally returned to Taiyuan.
Before boarding the plane, I had already informed Uncle Li that I would return to Taiyuan tonight. Actually, I had not contacted Uncle Li for a long time and was about to return to Taiyuan. I said hello to him and reported that I was safe. But Uncle Li insisted on picking me up and did not allow me to refuse. He hung up the phone directly. So, when I landed at Taiyuan Wusu Airport, I saw Uncle Li standing in front of the car in the parking lot as soon as I got out of the airport.
Seeing that I returned safely, Uncle Li seemed very happy, with a smile on his face. He patted my shoulder and asked, "Have you solved the problem with you?"
I nodded, hesitated for a while, and then told Uncle Li that I came back this time just passing by here, and I had to leave tomorrow to carry out a mission in Wuzhai County in northwest Shanxi.
Uncle Li has always kept silent about the Tiandao League. It can be seen that he seems to be very sensitive to the Tiandao League, and even a little taboo. These things cannot be explained clearly over the phone, so when I called him on the plane, I did not mention that I volunteered to join the Tiandao League. Now that we met, I finally told him the purpose of my trip.
"Mission?"
After hearing this, Uncle Li was obviously stunned at first, and then his face changed drastically: "Xiaotian, you..."
"Let's talk about it when we get home."
I didn't give Uncle Li a chance to finish his words. After looking at Li Jiajia beside me, I interrupted him directly. There was no way. Li Jiajia had no confidence in me because of my young age. If Uncle Li shook my foundation again, Li Jiajia might completely lose confidence in me and regard me as someone sent by the Tiandao League to perfunctorily deal with her. If she ran back to the Tiandao League to make a scene and asked for a replacement, then I would be in big trouble. I was already in an awkward situation in the Tiandao League. If something like that happened again, I would probably become a joke immediately!
Uncle Li has been with me for a long time. When he saw me like this, he knew that I didn't want to talk about these things in front of Li Jiajia. He sighed softly, nodded, and got in the car.
Li Jiajia and I are actually schoolmates. We both studied at Taiyuan University of Technology, and we both studied at Yingze Campus. I only found out about this when we were chatting on the plane. She now lives in a rented house near the school. After Li He passed away, she became even more lonely after losing her mother. She was too lazy to go back to that deserted home. She even planned to sell the house to support her schooling, food and accommodation. After listening to her situation on the plane, I secretly made up my mind that I would give her some money after selling the things I found in Helian Qi's tomb. After all, her father Li He had been with my father for many years. Now that he is gone, I have made a fortune. I can't just ignore him, which would easily make people feel disappointed!
After Uncle Li drove Li Jiajia home, he drove Zhou Jing and I directly to his place. As soon as we entered the door, Uncle Li asked me to follow him to the study alone. After closing the door, Uncle Li asked me with an uneasy look: "Xiaotian, you didn't join the Tiandao League?"
Uncle Li finally said the name of the organization. Whenever he mentioned the Tiandao League before, he refused to say the name of the organization directly. I don't know why he is so taboo about the Tiandao League.
I don't want to hide this. This is my choice. I am an adult after all. I think I have the right to choose my own destiny. The trip to the Qinling Mountains was bumpy and bumpy. I encountered a lot and changed me a lot. Hatred and responsibility made me no longer the simple college student I used to be. So I was not afraid of Uncle Li's scolding. I simply told him everything that happened to me after Uncle Li left from beginning to end, and also said all my thoughts.
After listening to this, Uncle Li sat in a chair and fell into silence. After a long time, he sighed softly: "Well, well, you have grown up, you are an adult, you have the right to choose your own destiny, not to mention... this may be your fate, but Uncle must warn you, cultivating murderous aura, once you enter this door, it is as deep as the sea. I hope you will always keep the kindness in your heart and don't forget your original intention!"
"I know, Uncle, don't worry!"
I nodded, hesitated for a while, and then asked Uncle Li: "What kind of organization is this Tiandao League, why do I always feel that you seem to have a certain prejudice against it?"
"This organization is far from It is much more terrifying and powerful than what you see now. What you see now is just the tip of the iceberg of this organization! "
Uncle Li's face flashed with pain, and he said in a deep voice: "When I was young, I participated in some of the affairs of this organization as your father's assistant. At that time, your grandfather was still there, and your Ge family was the pillar of the Tiandao League. Because you stand high, you can see more things. By chance, your father and your grandfather discovered that this organization has been doing one thing since its establishment. As for what it is, because I am not strong enough, they didn't tell me at all, but just said that the Tiandao League planned That thing was too dangerous, almost like walking on a tightrope. If you are not careful, the entire organization may be doomed! At that time, your father and your grandfather actually wanted to withdraw, but it was easy to join the Tiandao League, but how could it be so easy to leave? They couldn't withdraw, but in order to prevent me from being implicated, they had to force me to leave. This is the real reason why your father has been unwilling to let you get involved in these things all these years. As for your weak yang in your Bazi, those are all pretexts. Although people with weak yang in their Bazi are prone to attracting dirty things, they are not without some benefits. For example, when you cultivate murderous aura and absorb the evil spirits of those dirty things, because of your yang Insufficient, so the evil spirit will not conflict with your yang energy, but the speed of cultivation will be very fast. For example, when you use the art of summoning gods, it is obvious that the effect is much stronger than that of ordinary Taoist disciples. So your father said that your yang is weak, and those are his excuses! Today, uncle told you all this, mainly because I hope you can be careful about the Tiandao League in the future. It is okay to regard this organization as a platform for you to become stronger, but don't trust it. It is not worthy of your trust, understand? As for why uncle has a prejudice against this organization, it is just a personal emotional problem, and it has nothing to do with you..." After listening to what Uncle Li said, I was stunned. Has the Tiandao League been planning a very dangerous thing? This matter even made my grandfather, who was nine-stage murderous, want to quit? How dangerous is this thing! I took a deep breath, and my heart could not calm down for a long time. It seems that after joining the Tiandao League, I am afraid that I will never have a comfortable time in the future. However, I don't regret it at all. Compared with the humiliation I endured in the Qinling Tomb, death is nothing, and danger is nothing!
"Okay, you've been running around all day and are very tired. Come and rest here with me tonight!"
At this time, Uncle Li stood up, patted my shoulder, and said, "Since you have decided to complete the entry test, then Uncle will not say anything more. When you wake up tomorrow, I will take you to your father's former workplace. Li He used to work there, but he died. Now there are only two people left. One is a clerk responsible for contacting organizations and accepting tasks, and the other is an assistant who used to follow your father to perform tasks. You will be responsible for them in the future, which can be regarded as a son inheriting his father's business. This time you can take your father's former assistant with you on the mission. That person looks young, but he has a lot of tasks and is very experienced. I can feel more at ease with him by your side."
When I heard this, I was immediately happy. I didn't expect that my father had left me a helper. This can be regarded as a loophole in the entry test. Didn't that group of people not let Qingyi and others help me? Can't I find helpers myself?
Then, I called Mulan out to meet Uncle Li, but it was almost dawn and Mulan, who had lost her thousand-year-old Taoist skills, could no longer show up in broad daylight. So she just said hello briefly to Uncle Li and went back into the chastity sand in my chest. I also said goodbye to Uncle Li and found a bedroom to sleep.
