Hidden moth

Chapter 213: Past restrictions are difficult to resolve

Qian Guran: "Xiaokao, you can't always let me do this kind of thing, last time..."

He Kao interrupted him and said, "You also know that I have difficulties, and it is not convenient for me to show my cultivation openly.

But this time is different from the last time. You rescued Shi Haotu and his wife with your own hands, and you also captured Shi Yunlu with your own hands. It was mainly your credit. I was just a lookout!

Besides, you are my leader..."

Qian Guran: "Stop it, stop talking to me about leaders and employees. Who's in charge of who?" He paused and asked, "Any news from Senior Lin?"

He Kao: "The henchman that Shi Yunlu hired wore a mask and pretended to be him and went to the restaurant to eat. He has been apprehended by Senior Lin."

He Kao was a bit of a bully today. Not only did he get the money, but Lin Qingshuang was also secretly helping him. Just to deal with Shi Yunlu and Sheng Tiangang, this was definitely an over-output.

In fact, Lan Jiuwan alone is enough to deal with Shi Yunlu, but if he wants to catch him in the act and ensure the safety of Shi Haotu and his wife, he needs He Kao's secret support.

However, He Kao did not want to expose his own cultivation methods openly, nor did he want to implicate Lan Jiuwan in the subsequent investigation. At the same time, considering that there was a master behind the scenes who could unlock the ban, he was unsure, so he asked for old money again.

Qian hadn't come from Qiyuan; he'd just returned to Tengxin Group's headquarters before the holiday to report on his work. Tengxin Group's headquarters was located in Shenwan City, Zhujiang Province, very close to Nanhua, so he'd come here early.

He Kao did this, on the one hand, because the money was trustworthy, and on the other hand, it was also to provide a more reasonable explanation for the matter - who else could find the problem with Shi Yunlu?
According to He Kao, he felt that Shi Yunlu was not quite right and seemed to have great ill will towards him, but he was not sure whether there was anything wrong with this person or what the problem was. So he asked Qian Guran to come and take a look.

Qian Guran came to Nanhua and found that Shi Yunlu was very afraid of He Kao and was obviously wary of him. He also realized that Shi Yunlu had deep malice towards Shi Haotu and his wife, and even had murderous intentions.

Although it was just a brief glance, Qian Gu was still shocked.

Shi Haotu and his wife invited He Kao to dinner three times in a week, and Shi Yunlu was present every time. The last time was the day before the holiday, so Lao Qian had plenty of time to observe secretly.

Qian was a fourth-rank official of the Qi-Watching Gate, adept at observing people. Qi-Watching was a magical art, but it wasn't invincible; it was simply Shi Yunlu's lack of caution.

How is this insightful effect of qigong usually countered? To put it bluntly, it relies on concentration, the ability to restrain the mind from wandering, making it impossible for others to detect obvious emotional tendencies.

For Shi Yunlu, the smarter approach is to try not to appear at the same time as Shi Haotu and his wife.

Of course, the art of qi-gazing is not as simple as just taking a casual look. In addition to having the corresponding observation experience, it also requires money to cast the spell... No one can cast spells anytime and anywhere.

Shi Yunlu had not expected that there was a master of the Qi Gate who was secretly casting spells and observing him. Moreover, his own cultivation was not up to par, and he did not do a good job of restraining his mind from wandering at all times. The murderous intent revealed in that moment was just seen by Lao Qian.

Theoretically, this is a low-probability event, but it happened.

Qian Guran not only discovered Shi Yunlu's murderous intentions towards Shi Haotu and his wife, but more importantly, he also discovered the fluctuations of Shi Yunlu's spiritual power that were accidentally revealed on other occasions.

The nature of the problem is now even more serious, because Shi Yunlu's magical power should have been banned by the clan hall.

At this time, Lin Qingshuang also happened to come to Zhujiang Province and met Qian Guran and He Kao when passing by Nanhua. Qian Guran told them about his discovery, which attracted Lin Qingshuang's attention and vigilance.

Lin Qingshuang was not invited by He Kao, she came on her own.

The Huiming Shi family also has medicinal fields in this area. Due to the differences in geographical environment, many of the magical medicines grown here are not found in the Qihuang Lingyuan. Now it has been taken over by the Zongfa Hall.

Lin Qingshuang took advantage of the holiday to bring two disciples to broaden their horizons. Knowing He Kao was in Nanhua, she wanted to bring him along. Some time ago, she had given her disciples a lecture on various spiritual medicines, and He Kao had attended, so he couldn't fall behind this time.

After hearing about this in Nanhua, Lin Qingshuang was no longer in a hurry to visit the medicinal fields...

Sheng Tiangang was taken away by Lin Qingshuang. Meng Ya and Huang Si were also in the van at that time. Huang Si was the driver. They observed the master's magical powers on the spot.

Qian Guran secured Shiyun Road, drove off the highway and into the city of Nanhua, finding a secluded spot to change cars. He Kao left alone, erasing any trace of his involvement in the operation.

Even if he is really a secret disciple of a certain elder, as a secret disciple he must have the awareness of a secret. It is one thing for others to guess it privately, but he himself is not suitable to openly show his cultivation level, otherwise how can it be called a secret?
So the credit this time still goes to Lao Qian, including Lin Qingshuang, and even Huang Si and Meng Ya.

At its peak, the clan law hall sent more than fifty sorcerers to Nanhua and Huiming to deal with the affairs of the Shi family. Now there are only a dozen people left, among whom the chief one is Zou Tianjin, the deacon of Ruweimen, and recently Gong Xiaodong, the deacon of Guanshenmen, was added.

Gong Xiaodong is a fifth-level incantator of the Guanshen Sect. He is not tall and has a thin build, with big earlobes that are slightly protruding. He attended Lin Qingshuang's disciple-accepting ceremony and always gave He Kao the impression of a smile.

Zou Tianjin is a fifth-level mind-measuring person in the Ruwei Sect. He is tall and strong, with a bright forehead and a loud voice. He looks like a red-faced man.

The two people have different divisions of labor. Zou Tianjin is mainly responsible for supervising the children of the Huiming Shi family, while Gong Xiaodong represents the Shumen and is responsible for the final recovery of various assets.

Lin Qingshuang brought her disciples to visit the medicinal fields, originally intending to greet Gong Xiaodong. Ruwei Sect elder Kang Rulin, due to his status, had long since left the area to avoid suspicion. Zou Tianjin, judging by his lineage, did not belong to the same faction as Kang Rulin or the Huiming Shi family.

If Shi Yunlu's conspiracy succeeded and was discovered later, it would be considered Zou Tianjin's dereliction of duty to some extent.

There is one more thing that must be explained. The ban imposed on the sorcerers of the Huiming Shi family was originally cast by Zou Tianjin himself.

That night, more than ten sorcerers sent by the Zongfa Hall gathered in an independent courtyard of the Nanhua Kanglin Hotel. They were all alarmed by the sudden change.

In the small conference room, someone set up a temporary magic circle to cover up the sound. Shi Yunlu and Sheng Tiangang were thrown to the ground like two dead dogs, and the circumstances of the interrogation were basically clarified.

They were interrogated twice. Before they were sent here, Qian Guran and Lin Qingshuang had already interrogated them. After they were sent here, they were publicly tried again in front of two deacons and other people.

The person was caught in the afternoon and sent here in the evening. This is the reason.

The atmosphere at the scene was very solemn. The younger disciples did not dare to speak. For example, Huang Si and Meng Ya stood behind Lin Qingshuang with their mouths tightly shut.

Gong Xiaodong, perhaps to lighten the mood, laughed dryly and said, "Big sister, since you and Mr. Qian discovered something was wrong with Shi Yunlu a few days ago, why didn't you tell us? Even if you wanted to catch him in the act, I could still help."

Lin Qingshuang said with a straight face, "I am doing this to help the two deacons clear their suspicion."

Zou Tianjin muttered, "If I'm the suspect, that's fine, but how come Palace Steward is also a suspect?"

Lin Qingshuang: "Because he is the only fifth-level Zhuyou person here!"

What does this mean? To seal a cultivation base, the caster must have at least a fourth-tier cultivation base, and the prerequisite is that the sealed person actively cooperates and does not resist, or has lost the ability to resist.

The difficulty of casting spells to unlock the forbidden cultivation is much higher than the forbidden cultivation. The safest way is to let the original caster do it himself.

In other words, the safest way to unlock Shi Yunlu's ban is for Zou Tianjin himself to take action.

While high-level sorcerers generally understand the principles of the seal, each spellcaster has different characteristics and the details of their methods vary. The prerequisite for unlocking the seal is to understand how the original caster imposed the seal.

Theoretically, this can be sensed by invading the furnace with spiritual consciousness.

However, if the perception is not careful enough and some details are not understood, mistakes may occur when unlocking the ban, which may cause injuries at the very least, and at the worst, one may accidentally ruin one's cultivation or even lose one's life.

Just like decompressing a file, if the program isn't compatible, it won't work, or it might result in lost data or garbled text. Files are fine, but a living person can't stand that kind of torture.

Therefore, apart from Zou Tianjin, if anyone else were to help Shi Yunlu remove the ban, there would be certain risks. In theory, the higher the cultivation level of the person doing the work, the lower the risk.

There is another way to minimize the risk, which is to ask a fifth-level Zhuyou master to take action.

When the body-viewing technique is cultivated to the fifth level, some of the methods seem miraculous to ordinary people. No matter what the disease is, you can use a seemingly most direct method to try to treat or eliminate it.

The mystery of this method is to help people return to their normal state as much as possible. For example, a bowl of water can cure liver disease as well as stomach disease, and a stone can heal a sprain as well as a knife wound.

This no longer seems like medical skills but more like magic, and in fact it seems to be magic.

The sealing of spiritual energy and magical power can also be considered an abnormal disease.
The fifth-level sorcerer already knows the principle of removing the seal, and the person who performs the incantation can more accurately perceive the situation of the sealed person and try to avoid harming the person as much as possible during the process of removing the seal.

Even He Kao was not very clear about the intricacies of this.

The current situation is that Shi Yunlu's seal has been lifted, and his technique is very perfect, and he himself is unharmed. Although the injuries just inflicted by Qian are not counted, the experts present can tell the difference.

How could it be such a coincidence that such a master suddenly appeared and was so confident that he could do this? Zou Tianjin and Gong Xiaodong, who were in Nanhua, could not be ruled out as suspects!

So even though Qian had discovered the problem but didn't inform them first, Lin Qingshuang hadn't told them beforehand. If Zou Tianjin or Gong Xiaodong were the real accomplices behind the scenes, wouldn't that be the same as tipping off?
For the same reason, after capturing Shi Yunlu, they did not immediately hand him over to the two deacons for interrogation, but instead interrogated him themselves first.

It turned out that the "expert" that Shi Yunlu mentioned was not Zou Tianjin and Gong Xiaodong, and they had never heard of him. They then notified the two deacons and brought the person over.

Although this is true, it is not pleasant to tell the truth. After all, they first regarded Zou Tianjin and Gong Xiaodong as suspects and were on guard against them.

Qian Guran pretended to be deaf and dumb, but at the same time he thought to himself that it was a good thing that Lin Qingshuang was here today. She was of a higher generation, had more experience, and had a strong background, so she didn't have to worry too much when speaking.
