Yinshan Record

Chapter 118 Adaptability and Flexibility
Did Wuzhiqi want a bloody war?

I don't know what the Ghost Festival will do to you. When you make your move, I'll go straight to the Azure Emperor's Treasure Garden and see what you, you monkey, do next.

"Wuzhiqi?"

“Feng Xi, right?”

Su Che looked at Wuzhiqi, wondering what this water monkey was up to.

“I can tell you’re a smart man.” Wuzhiqi’s hands, which were resting on the iron rod, were covered in sharp claws. “I’m a smart man too. Smart people understand each other immediately.”

"The Lion-Azure Lotus Buddha possesses three secret treasures. The Azure Emperor's Treasure Garden is the foremost, followed by the true meaning of the 'Future Star Constellation Calamity Scripture' contained in the nine-page golden book, and finally, an innate divine talisman." The water monkey chuckled, "Here's some news for you: the true meaning of the 'Future Star Constellation Calamity Scripture' has already been taken. If you want to gain something, besides finding the innate divine talisman, there's probably only one other thing left."

Wuzhiqi's eyes flickered with blue light.

Su Che looked at Wu Zhiqi.

Coming up and shouting threats of violence is coercion.

Sending a free and convenient message is a form of enticement.

This monkey is interesting.

"Thanks."

Su Che offered a perfunctory polite response.

Here's some news for you: the Azure Emperor's Treasure Garden has also been taken, and the person who took both the Azure Emperor's Treasure Garden and the true meaning of the "Future Star Constellation Tribulation Scripture" is the same person.

"What are you thanking me for? Let me give you a few pointers. The last task he gave me was to find a file in the Imperial Censorate of the Great Liang Dynasty. I was chased by three fifth-rank experts and barely survived. Now he's sending us to find the Azure Emperor's Treasure Garden. In Shanyin County, not far away, there are Feng Xingbu from the Imperial Horse Administration of the Great Liang Dynasty, Yu Ze, the Censor-in-Chief, and the Imperial Guards. I don't know how many eyes are watching this place."

Wuzhiqi tapped the mask on his face.

"Isn't it strange that he runs this shady organization, doesn't try to stay hidden behind the scenes, and instead sends people wherever there's excitement?"

This line sounds familiar; it's like I've said something similar to some sucker.

"Feng Xi, think about it, in the heart of this omnipotent lord, what are you and I?"

Su Che looked at this guy who bore the title of God of the Huai River.

The ancient demon god Wuzhiqi was truly a tough and rebellious hero.

"what do you mean?"

"Think more about yourself."

Wu Zhiqi pointed north: "Instead of foolishly becoming someone else's pawn pushed to the forefront."

“I joined the group a little earlier than you, so I’ll tell you something.”

Wuzhiqi looked at Su Che and said, "Do you know how many places in the world are not illuminated by the sun and moon?"

Deep underground, at a depth of over 400 meters on the seabed, there is also a coffin.

Su Che glanced at Wu Zhiqi but did not reveal his answers.

"There are two places in the world where the sun and moon cannot shine, one is in the North Pole and the other is in the South Pole. This is because there are a large number of celestial demons gathered above the nine layers of heavenly energy in these two places, which completely obscure the light of the sun, moon and stars."

Wuzhiqi gritted his teeth and said, "Think about it, has the Zhongshan Society ever seen the sun, moon, and stars at this gathering place?"

"Perhaps it's somewhere very deep underground or on the seabed."

Su Che said, "It's best not to be too hasty in these matters."

"Arbitrary. Surely the void technique that allows us to be teleported at will isn't fake? Among all sects and factions, who is more skilled in void magic than the Demonic Sect?"

Wuzhiqi gazed at the bright moon in the sky.

“Some things can’t stand up to scrutiny. The idea that the meeting is full of people with deep-seated hatred is all bullshit. When they come out to do the things they’re asked to do, they fail six out of ten times, and even when they do, they cause trouble. This time they asked us to find some Qingdi Treasure Garden. I’ve turned this dilapidated temple upside down, and I can’t even find a trace of it.”

"What's done is done. We can't really go and test his divine power, can we?"

Su Che carefully played the role of Feng Xi.

Aside from the very beginning, Wuzhiqi rarely mentioned the term "Zhongyuan" in his speech, which clearly indicated that he was hiding something.

"That's why I said you're a smart person."

Wuzhiqi smiled. "Shall we form an alliance?"

"We are all members of the Zhongshan Society, do we still need to form an alliance?"

Su Che pretended to be clueless.

“If you overdo it, it loses its appeal.”

Wuzhiqi looked coldly at Su Che: "I'm talking about a trustworthy fellow practitioner. Your cultivation level isn't high enough, is it?"

"Seventh rank."

He was just promoted.

“You should know that I am a fifth-rank official.” Wu Zhiqi held up five fingers: “The missions in Zhongyuan are unpredictable and difficult to predict. With my help, you will have a better chance of success in whatever you do.”

"Help me?" Su Che looked at Wu Zhiqi: "Can we not fulfill what that person has set?"

"I mean outside of mission time."

Wuzhiqi smiled and said, "There's something you remember."

"whats the matter."

"Su Nu wants Su Che, the county magistrate of Shanyin."

"Ok?"

"Although Su Nu tried very hard to conceal it, I have almost figured out the situation. Su Nu must be a very powerful figure in the East China Sea."

Being able to produce three sets of Xuan You Dao Zhen Dan (a type of pill) certainly indicates a large and powerful force.

“Su Che, the county magistrate of Shanyin, has the destiny of the Azure Dragon of the Six Harmonies, which is extremely rare and seems to be very important to Su Nu.”

The Azure Dragon of the Six Directions—everything originates from this. This is true of White Deer Cave and Su Nu. Is this thing really that important?
Fate... Su Che suddenly remembered his past life, which seemed to have been quite ordinary. He was an ordinary office worker, without a girlfriend, who would work nine hours a day and then go home to play with his cat and take a walk.

It seems that his destiny as the Azure Dragon of the Six Directions, which has attracted attention from all sides, had no effect in his previous life.

Oh, right, times have changed, it's now a republic.

“Kidnap him and hand him over to Su Nu, then we’ll split the profits 30/70.”

Su Che looked at Wu Zhiqi and thought, "This idea is pretty good. I won't ask who's three and who's seven."

“Abducting an official of the imperial court, this is not a good thing to do.”

Wu Zhiqi looked at Su Che with a deep gaze and said, "I've done some research on this person, and he doesn't seem to have any particularly strong background."

Yes, he was merely a disciple of Huang Tiandao Changsheng Zhenren, one of the three juniors of the Grand Eunuch of the Imperial Horse Administration of Daliang, and the Deputy Commander of the Imperial Guards in charge of criminal justice.

"really?"

"real."

Wu Zhiqi laughed heartily: "For the news of the Six Harmonies Azure Dragon, Su Nu was willing to give your brother three sets of Xuan You Dao Zhen Dan. How much is a living Six Harmonies Azure Dragon worth?"

Thanks for the news. I'll be heading to Donghai tonight to work in the tertiary sector. Best regards.

Su Che looked at this Wuzhiqi. Although he couldn't see through the supernatural powers behind the mask, he could still feel the genuine joy in this man.

"The best part is that Su Nu probably wouldn't dare to double-cross someone; she'll definitely give up what's rightfully hers."

Su Che said, "She also has to consider that person's wishes and can't attack us."

"Let's have a proper talk about this tomorrow night at the City God Temple in Shanyin County."

Wuzhiqi put down the iron rod.

"Indeed, shall we now go and search for the Azure Emperor's Treasure Garden?"

"That's right, Gushe and Qingqiu have arrived."

Wuzhiqi turned around, and Su Che watched his back.

So that's why they came here to guard the gate.
