Five kinds of medicine in another world

Looking at Jiang Heng who suddenly realized something, Gu Shijiu raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile, and said softly:

"Actually, we don't have to be so anxious. In my opinion, this drama is probably not directed at our Hengdao Escort Agency. After all, we have always been a law-abiding and honest people."

After Jiang Heng heard this, a look of confusion emerged on his face, and he frowned and asked:

"What do you mean?"

Jiang Heng seemed very confused by what Gu Shijiu said. In his opinion, there was a contradiction between what Gu Shijiu said before and what he said afterwards, and he didn't quite understand.

Gu Shijiu paused for a moment, then explained:

"I guess the emperor's plan is aimed at those aristocratic families who are secretly plotting behind the scenes. The dynasty will not easily take action against forces like us no matter what. At most, they are just afraid of us."

Hearing Gu Shijiu's analysis, Jiang Heng couldn't help but laugh, shaking his head and sighing:

"You smart people always like to beat around the bush and have so many ideas in your head that it's hard to keep up. It's really not easy to set a trap for you!"

Jiang Heng's words were like a sharp sword, piercing deep into Gu Shijiu's heart. He was stunned for a moment, and his thoughts seemed to be frozen at that moment.

"Yeah, set a trap for smart people."

Gu Shijiu murmured to himself. At this moment, he seemed to know something.

"Interesting, very interesting. It seems that there are capable people in the dynasty."

Gu Shijiu's words made Jiang Heng laugh. Jiang Heng said directly:

"Isn't this nonsense? The empire is so big, with so many officials, and all the civil servants are practicing mind cultivation. Isn't mind cultivation just about cultivating the spirit? As long as you learn it casually, you won't be that stupid."

Gu Shijiu listened to Jiang Heng's words and smiled bitterly. He couldn't help but laugh at himself, realizing that he had looked down on the people in this world too much and even became a little conceited.

Gu Shijiu slowly stood up, looked at Jiang Heng firmly, and said:

"Let's go. Time is running out. We should deal with this matter sooner rather than later. By the way, I want to ask, is the escort agency still managed by King Du Sha Du Biao?"

Jiang Heng shook his head slightly and replied:

"The escort agency is now in the hands of Great Elder Xiao Yao. Great Elder Xiao Yao is very powerful and has already entered the eighth level. Like you, he is also a master of the escort saint level. In addition, the second and third elders have also broken through the barrier. Both of them are at the peak of the escort emperor level. One of the elders is currently waiting for further arrangements from the escort agency in Tianzhu County."

"I see."

Gu Shijiu nodded to show that he understood. His voice was full of determination, and he said without hesitation:

"Okay, then let's go find Great Elder Xiao Yao right away."

After saying this, he stepped forward with firm and powerful steps, as if he was ready to face all difficulties.

Seeing Gu Shijiu being so serious, Jiang Heng seemed to realize the seriousness of the problem, so he hurriedly chased after him and accompanied Gu Shijiu to find Great Elder Xiao Yao.

The two walked to the front of the meeting room and saw Great Elder Xiao Yao leisurely drinking tea inside.

Gu Nineteen spoke first:

"Great Elder Xiao Yao, long time no see."

Xiao Yao looked up in confusion, and when he saw that it was Gu Shijiu, a hint of joy flashed across his eyes, and he said repeatedly:

"Nineteen, you are awake. When will you wake up?"

Gu Shijiu smiled and said:

"I just woke up and chatted with my master for a while before coming here. By the way, Great Elder Xiao Yao, I need to tell you something."

Gu Shijiu and Jiang Heng walked in, found a place to sit down, and continued to talk to Xiao Yao:

"Zhenxie County is a trap set by the dynasty against smart people."

When Xiao Yao first heard the first half of the sentence, he was smiling. But when he heard the second half of Gu Shijiu's sentence, his expression suddenly froze and the smile stopped on his face.

"A smart man's game?"

Xiao Yao muttered to himself and fell into deep thought.

Gu Shijiu smiled and said nothing more.

He is a smart man, and others are not fools either. This is the truth he just realized today.

Similarly, since I am a smart man, Elder Xiao Yao is certainly not a fool, but a first-class smart man.

What I can think of, Elder Xiao Yao can also think of.

Sure enough, after a while, a thin layer of sweat appeared on Xiao Yao's face, and he said softly:

"What a great plan to target smart people. We all underestimated the emperor. What a great plan. It's really amazing."

After hearing Xiao Yao's words, Gu Shijiu nodded and said:

"Indeed, the emperor either has an expert to guide him, or he is an expert himself."

"Who says it's not true? How can he be a mediocre person if he can be the emperor of the Shenlong Dynasty? He hasn't taken action for a long time, but when he does, he is still so sharp."

Although Xiao Yao did not say it explicitly, he was telling Gu Shijiu in both explicit and implicit ways that the emperor was the master.

"Nineteen, in your opinion, what should we do now?"

Xiao Yao's eyes flashed and he asked directly.

"Haha, the Great Elder already has an idea, so we will naturally do as the Great Elder wishes."

Gu Shijiu smiled and did not respond. Although he was also an eighth-rank saint, there was definitely a gap between him and veteran saints like Xiao Yao. He hadn't even mastered the attack methods of an eighth-rank saint, so naturally he didn't dare to pretend to be a big shot.

"Hey, Nineteen, I just realized that you have broken through to the eighth level of Saint?"

Xiao Yao was about to say something when he suddenly felt that Gu Shijiu's aura was not right. After sensing it carefully, he found that Gu Shijiu had already broken through to the eighth-level saint.

"A lucky break."

Gu Shijiu said modestly.

"This is not a fluke. Congratulations, Nineteen. Once you become a saint, you will be able to face the heaven and earth. You will never have to experience the hardships of this world in your life. That's great."

Xiao Yao's smile was very pure, and it could be seen at first glance that he was truly happy for Gu Shijiu.

"Oh, Great Elder Xiao Yao, what are the Saint's attack methods? I just broke through to the Saint level and haven't had time to comprehend anything yet."

Gu Nineteen opened his mouth and asked.

"Hahaha, the saints have too many ways of attacking. In general, you can attack however you want, as you please, and overwhelm others with your strength."

"The strength of a saint lies in the ability to mobilize the power of heaven and earth. With the blessing of the power of heaven and earth, a simple swing of your sword can cut through the sky and split the earth. A glance from you can instantly turn a person into ashes. Every move you make is a move. It is difficult to be defeated unless you are at the eighth level."

"It is said that the three cultivation methods of the Hengdao Escort Agency are invincible in the world and can fight across levels. However, it is basically impossible for a seventh-level saint to cross the border and fight an eighth-level saint, unless he is not a normal eighth-level saint."

"This is the power of an eighth-rank saint."

Xiao Yao spoke a lot and Gu Shijiu immediately felt that he benefited a lot.
