Summoner: Recognize Kain as the big brother at the beginning

Chapter 84 Gongsun Li

The night was dim, and Di Renjie and others finally returned.

Yuxi came forward and said anxiously: "You are finally back..."

Di Renjie responded in a deep voice: "The Langhuan Library has been reduced to ashes."

"However, I have sorted out all the clues."

Di Renjie took a deep breath and continued to explain, "Su Lie was framed in the same way as a treason case many years ago."

Yuxi: "Rebellion case?"

Di Renjie said no more, walked into the main seat of the hall, and took out a scroll of silk writing.

At this time, Shangguan Wan'er noticed that Yuxi looked at her carefully and asked, "Master Di, who is this?"

Yuxi introduced herself: "I am Su Lie's friend."

"I know the truth about the chaos in Guan City and the demons that appeared on the border."

A trace of worry flashed across Shangguan Wan'er's eyes, and it was obvious that she did not completely believe Yuxi's words.

Li Yuanfang stood up and said firmly: "Don't worry, he was poisoned by me, I don't think he would dare to lie."

Yuxi smiled in her heart, everything was under control: "Hehe... your poison has been cured long ago."

But he still had to do the surface work, so he said righteously: "There is no need for me to lie. Now we are in the same boat."

Seeing this, Shanggong Wan'er was no longer so wary of Yuxi, but Yuxi did not stop talking, and continued with lingering fear: "I just came out of Ganye Temple, guess what I ran into?

Li Yuanfang teased as if he had expected it: "Did you get chased?"

Yuxi was surprised: "Ha! You are quite smart."

He continued, "Yes, I was indeed being watched. I didn't dare to stop on the way back."

"Haha..." Li Yuanfang couldn't help laughing out loud.

Yuxi asked with a strange look on her face: "Why are you laughing? You look like you're gloating over someone else's misfortune."

Li Yuanfang stopped laughing and explained, "I had already noticed something when I was following you this morning."

With a serious expression, he said, "I'm not the only one following you."

Yuxi understood and was worried: "It seems that Ming Shiyin can really see something."

"With him here, I'm afraid it will be difficult to carry out my mission of exploring Chang'an."

"After all, my life might be in danger..."

Seeing Yuxi was silent, Li Yuanfang comforted her, "Don't worry too much. As long as you stay in the Dali Temple and are safe, we have ways to protect you."

Li Yuanfang continued, "And our Dali Temple has a strong guard force, with 150 people taking turns to guard it. It will not be easy for the enemy to succeed here."

Yuxi gently probed: "What if I want you to go out with me?"

Li Yuanfang asked with a hint of doubt: "Where are you going?"

"Uh...I want to go get some food."

"There is food here, why go far away?"

Di Renjie's voice interrupted their conversation: "Yuxi, you are the key witness in this case."

"Three days later, you and Shangguan Wan'er must follow us to the Fengshan Terrace."

Di Renjie's tone was very serious: "You'd better stay in the Dali Temple for the next few days to avoid unnecessary trouble."

"We will make proper arrangements for your food and daily life."

Shangguan Wan'er nodded to show her understanding: "I understand."

Yuxi thought for a moment and finally agreed: "Okay..."

But he secretly thought in his heart: "Perhaps, after the storm of the past few days has passed, it won't be too late to wait and see how the situation changes."

Several people waited quietly in the hall for a while. Di Renjie carefully put away the written scroll and hid it in his arms.

Di Renjie suggested, "Everyone, you haven't eaten yet, right? The food is ready in the side room, let's go eat first."

Then they walked into the side room and saw a table full of delicious dishes, which were obviously prepared with great care and attention.

Several Dali Temple adjutants were already present. When they saw Di Renjie coming, they all stood up to greet him: "Master Di, please take a seat."

Di Renjie waved his hand and said, "No need to be polite, let's have dinner together."

During the meal, the atmosphere was a little dull, everyone had their own thoughts, and only the sound of bowls and chopsticks colliding could be heard.

After the meal, Yuxi was arranged to rest in a quiet side room. However, he lay on the bed, his heart was beating fast and he could not fall asleep.

"Why do I always feel uneasy in my heart..."

"Maybe it's time to buy a life-saving outfit."

Having made up his mind, Yuxi called out without hesitation: "System, can you check my gold coin balance?"

Ding——Current gold coins: 2905

"Alas, I'm short of money... I've been spending more than I've earned lately, and the income from the Gems of Knowledge is also stretched to the limit."

"What is the price of the famous sword Siming?"

Ding——Equipment Bar

Famous Sword Siming

Effect: Life-saving

Price: 1900

"It costs 1900... After buying it, you will be penniless..."

Yuxi struggled internally, but finally sighed in relief: "Forget it, saving my life is the most important thing."

"Buy the famous sword Siming."

Ding——Second equipment slot:

Famous Sword·Si Ming:

+60 physical attack

+5% cooldown reduction

Unique Passive - Dark Curtain: Immunity to critical hits and all damage, increase movement speed by 30% for 1 second

Cooldown: 120 seconds

Equipment bar

Current gold: 1005

"The passive ability of the famous sword remains the same. It still saves life every two minutes."

Yuxi sighed: "This is undoubtedly a life-saving treasure..."

I started to feel a little regretful: "Why didn't I have the foresight to choose it in the first place!"

"Although the attack power it provides is slightly insufficient..."

Ding - please note that the disappearance of the light effect marks the beginning of the cooldown of the passive skill.

"Yeah, I get it. That's it."

Yuxi was planning to rest like this, but suddenly noticed the words "Second Equipment".

"By the way, can the first equipment, the ＜Knowledge Gem＞, be upgraded?"

Ding——"Knowledge Gem (upgraded version): Provides 500 gold coins + 1% experience bar every day (next upgrade condition: 15 heroes' intimacy reaches 100.)"

Equipment column: (attribute equipment)

First equipment: Gem of Knowledge (upgraded version)

Second equipment: Famous sword Siming

Third equipment: Sealed (can be unlocked after reaching level 50)

……

Equipment column: (real equipment)

Head: Empty

Side: Empty

Hand: Infinity Edge

Upper limbs: Witch cloak (damaged)

Lower limbs: empty

Foot: Empty

...

"Okay, ok, it's closed."

After acquiring the passive power of the famous sword, Yuxi felt much more at ease and was finally able to sleep peacefully.

The next morning, after breakfast, Yuxi greeted Li Yuanfang.

After packing up, he prepared to leave the Dali Temple.

Li Yuanfang said firmly, "Didn't we agree that you would stay in the Dali Temple for the next three days?"

Yuxi raised the corners of her mouth slightly and replied nonchalantly: "I'll just wander around here. If I encounter any danger, I will come back naturally."

Yuxi thought to herself, "Now that the equipment is ready, how can I not take the risk?"

“Anyway, I’ll be immune to fatal injuries within two minutes, so it’s a waste not to use it…” Yuxi chuckled and prepared to leave.

Shangguan Wan'er said softly, "I'll go with you. I also want to buy a fan."

Li Yuanfang hesitated: "You guys..."

He made a quick decision: "I'll go with you!"

Yuxi responded: "Then let's go."

Li Yuanfang stopped and said seriously: "Wait a moment, let's disguise ourselves first."

"To prevent being recognized and avoid unnecessary trouble."

Yuxi was shocked: "Oh, why didn't I think of disguising myself!"

He asked curiously, "How should we disguise ourselves?"

"Using a human skin mask? Or a man dressed as a woman?"

Li Yuanfang didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "What are you thinking about?"

He turned around and quickly took out a package, which contained three bamboo hats.

Li Yuanfang handed Yuxi a bamboo hat and said, "Put this on. Even if I stand in front of you, you may not recognize me."

Yuxi took the hat with some doubt and carefully looked at the effect after Li Yuanfang put it on.

Li Yuanfang's entire face was completely covered by the hat, making it difficult to recognize him.

Yuxi was secretly shocked: "I give up. If I don't lift the curtain, I really can't see her face!"

Shangguan Wan'er nodded slightly, with a hint of appreciation in her eyes: "Well, this disguise is indeed convenient."

"Yeah, you guys should try it too."

"Okay." The two agreed in unison.

After getting everything equipped, Yuxi first stepped into the unfamiliar long street.

As I walked, the long street stretched out, quiet and peaceful, without any abnormality.

Yuxi secretly praised in her heart: "It's really convenient and easy to use."

The three of them were strolling in the streets and alleys, and accidentally met an old man selling fans.

Shangguan Wan'er stepped forward and bought a paper fan, and with the help of the old man's pen, she wrote down a few lines of poetry freely.

Yuxi whispered: "I stay here to think of the past, and I look at the nine provinces with my collar open. So I appreciate the mountains at home, and only the wind blows through the pines."

He looked up at Shangguan Wan'er and asked curiously, "Is this your poem?"

Shangguan Wan'er smiled and replied: "The first two lines were written by me, and the last two lines are the poems of the Empress."

Yuxi asked tentatively: "It seems that you admire the empress very much?"

Shangguan Wan'er was slightly stunned, then frankly admitted: "Yes, I do admire the empress very much."

Her expression revealed a subtle complex emotion, and then she wrote another poem in very small handwriting on the side of the fan bone.

A trace of doubt flashed in Yuxi's eyes, and she whispered to herself: "There is no other meaning in the book, but only the sadness of being away from home for a long time."

"The first two lines are bold and unrestrained, but why are they listed alongside Wu Zetian's poems? Moreover, the poem on the fan bone seems like a wife's longing for her husband."

Looking at Shangguan Wan'er who was still writing, Yuxi sighed: "The minds of literati are really hard to understand."

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Li Yuanfang also bought some toys.

Li Yuanfang suggested: "Let's go back...it's getting dark."

Shangguan Wan'er also agreed: "Okay, let's go back."

Yuxi: "Let's go."

Several people turned around and prepared to leave.

Suddenly, the sound of a pipa was heard from the stage in the middle of the long street.

Yuxi almost subconsciously thought of purification.

"Purification!"

The crowd quickly crowded toward the stage, and Li Yuanfang and Shangguan Wan'er stopped there.

A maple-colored figure approached quietly.

Yuxi had no time to dodge and her hat was cut by a maple leaf.
