Han Zhou knew what he was thinking, smiled, and said, "It's better to replace me. The auras of demons and immortals are similar, and those people have never seen me before, so I'm sure I can lure them out."

Bai Yi frowned, and said without thinking, "No."

Han Zhou smiled and said, "Why?"

"It's such a dangerous place, what are you doing in this muddy water?" Bai Yi said bluntly, "Besides, there are very few immortals and demons in the human world these days. If two appear in just a few days, it will definitely arouse suspicion, so you can't go."

Han Zhou smiled and didn't answer, and didn't mention it again.

Leaving this matter aside, Ji Xiao changed the subject and said: "One more thing, at midnight last night, a carriage secretly left the city. If I guessed correctly, the person in the carriage should be King Kuan."

"King Kuan?" Bai Yi asked with a serious face, "Do you know where he went?"

Ji Xiao said in a cold voice: "Twenty miles to the east of the city is in the forest, where he raised private soldiers."

Bai Yi's eyes sharpened, and he said angrily, "I knew it!"

King Kuan has not been very peaceful since he became the emperor, and during this time he has even outright provoked the court—as expected, he has done something shameful behind the scenes, and he has planned to rebel a long time ago!

"Do you remember the exact location of that place?" Bai Yi asked.

Ji Xiao nodded, "The terrain is complicated and there are many detours. If the national teacher wants to go, I can ask my cronies to lead the way."

"Okay." Bai Yi agreed, "I'll go tonight."

Ji Xiao couldn't help asking again, "What is the national division planning to do with that private soldier?"

If he sent people to make a surprise attack directly, Kuanzhou was King Kuan's territory after all, and he didn't know the number of private soldiers. If he attacked rashly, he would only hurt the enemy by one thousand and himself eight hundred.But if we follow the procedure and let the court send ministers to investigate and find a legitimate reason to attack, it will take too much time...

Bai Yi took a sip of his tea, and said coldly: "At most tens of thousands of generals, just one person is enough for me."

Ji Xiao paused for a moment.

Even if he is a descendant of an ancient mythical beast, it is impossible for him to be ridiculous enough to have the ability to fight against ten thousand. Han Zhou was afraid that he would do something stupid, so he hurriedly asked, "What are you going to do?"

Bai Yi sneered, "I go incognito... as long as you poison the rice or the well, you can't kill tens of thousands, but you can also lose thousands."

Han Zhou: "..."

also.

Bai Yi pulled Han Zhou to stand up, and said: "Tonight, please send someone to take us there. If there is nothing else, we will leave first."

"Wait." Ji Xiao got up and said, "I have one more thing, I want to ask the national teacher."

Bai Yi said: "What's the matter?"

Ji Xiao was silent for a moment, then raised his eyes and asked: "Dare to ask the national teacher, is there any way in this world... to make people live as long as immortals?"

The room fell into silence for a while, and Bai Yi looked at him in surprise.

Han Zhou opened his mouth, hesitated to speak, "Master..."

Bai Yi interrupted him, and said bluntly, "Are you and Hua Zhuo fools?"

Bai Yi glanced at him, and continued: "Why are the long-lived bones called long-lived bones, don't you guys think about it carefully? What do you think I'm giving you this thing for? Don't tell me it's just for show? "

Ji Xiao was stunned.

Before he could recover, Bai Yi said again: "Put the long-lived bone in a silver vessel, burn it for three hours on a high fire, after it is cooked, swallow it with warm water, and you will not be able to use it for three days, remember ?”

cooked?

Han Zhou coughed and explained: "This matter...although it sounds unbelievable, it is true."

"But there is one thing, you have to keep in mind." Hanzhou said seriously, "longevity bones are rare in the world. After taking this method, you can turn your body into a fairy bone...but not everyone can. It will cause the celestial energy to swell, the meridians to flow backwards, until you die. The reason why Xiaoyi gave you this is because you have practiced martial arts all the year round, and your inner strength is deep, so you are sure to be able to control it. But in the final analysis, this matter has always been No one has tried it yet, and we can't be sure if there will be an accident."

"After taking the longevity bone, the pain will definitely be unbearable within three days. If you can bear it, forget it. If you can't bear it..." Han Zhou frowned, and said, "You have to be prepared."

Ji Xiao's eyes were dark, and he said in a deep voice, "Okay."

"However..." Bai Yi changed the subject and said coldly, "There is a way to make sure you are safe."

Ji Xiao frowned, "What way?"

"Immortal qi is divided into two types. One is external and can be used to control enemies and heal injuries. The other is internal and is innate. It circulates in the body and is used to regulate the bones and meridians internally. It is endless." Bai Yi spoke eloquently, looked at him meaningfully, and said, "If you can have this kind of inner immortal energy for you to control the longevity bones, plus your own internal strength... you will be fine."

Ji Xiao was silent for a while, then raised his eyes and said, "The national teacher means...Chengyan's immortal energy, can you help me?"

"Exactly." Bai Yi said.

"How can I help?" Ji Xiao said calmly.

"There are two ways." Bai Yi said coldly, "Either take out his bones and blood and drink it with warm water, or you can...cough with him."

"Understood?" Bai Yi said.

Han Zhou turned his head to hold back a smile.

"Okay, that's all the talk, we've said everything that needs to be said, and the rest of the lords can figure it out themselves." Bai Yi said coldly.

Without waiting for him to answer, he turned around and left.

However, Han Zhou didn't rush to follow, and waited until Bai Yi had already left the door before he came over with a smile, and said to Ji Xiao in a low voice, "Leader, don't misunderstand, Xiao Yi has a thin skin, so I'm sorry to say it... what he meant That, as long as it’s bodily fluid, it’s not that troublesome, the leader can weigh it himself.”

Ji Xiao's eyes relaxed a lot, he nodded and said, "Thank you."

Han Zhou patted him on the shoulder, turned around and followed him out.

Not long after the two left, Hua Zhuo got dressed and came in. Seeing that there was no one in the room, she asked, "The national teacher and the others left?"

Ji Xiao said "um", staring at him with deep eyes.

"What's the matter?" Seeing that his expression was wrong, Hua Zhuo walked over, "But what happened?"

"It's nothing." Ji Xiao narrowed his eyes, remained silent for a while, and then asked lightly, "Is the longevity bone...is it with you?"

Huazhuo said: "It's in the house, what's wrong?"

Ji Xiao said in a deep voice: "Bring it to me later, I'm useful."

Hua Zhuo remembered the induction between the holy treasures mentioned by the national teacher before, and hurriedly asked: "What's the use? But is there a whereabouts of the green jade?"

"No." Ji Xiao said.

Ji Xiao didn't intend to go into details, but raised his eyes to look at him, and said: "Also, you are not allowed to go out in the house these few days... I am also useful."

Hua Zhuo was a little at a loss.

for what?

……use me? !

Ji Xiao didn't explain much, instead he walked towards the desk and said in a low voice: "That's it, you go out first. I'll deal with the important matters of these few days, and I'll go back later."

Hua Zhuo was at a loss, seeing that he had already taken a seat by the table, and didn't pay attention to herself, so she muffled "Oh" and went out without knowing why.

In the evening, light rain began to fall from the sky, and the coolness of the spring night was permeated by the patter.Hua Zhuo had been sitting for a long time, and her neck was a little sore, just after stretching, someone opened the door and walked in.

Hua Zhuo hurriedly put away his things, but before he put them away, Ji Xiao had already walked over, and his eyes fell on the open book next to him.

Hua Zhuo quickly closed the book and covered it with rice paper in a guilty conscience.

"There's no need to hide it." Ji Xiao said lightly.

"I didn't hide it." Hua Zhuo pressed the rice paper with her arms, with a serious expression.

Ji Xiao glanced at him, "I can't see the words on that book."

Hua Zhuo choked.

Why didn't you say it earlier?

Ji Xiao had no intention of pursuing it, and instead asked, "Where is the longevity bone?"

Only then did Hua Jue remember, got up and searched in the wooden box in the cabinet, took out the small box containing the long bones, and handed it to him, "Here."

Ji Xiao took it over, looked down at the box, and slowly stroked it, his eyes were a little dark.

Hua Zhuo felt that he was acting weird today, and couldn't help but asked: "What happened? Is it... something happened to the Devil's Cult? Or something happened to King Kuan?"

Ji Xiao looked at him, and said calmly, "Last night, I found out that King Kuan had raised private soldiers outside the city."

"Private soldier?" Hua Zhuo's eyes widened.

Ji Xiao remained calm, and continued: "The situation in Kuanzhou is severe now, and King Kuan will rebel at some point. The National Advisor has gone to investigate tonight, and I don't know if I can succeed... What I have to do now, It is to lure the Demon Sect out as soon as possible, and catch the evidence of King Kuan's thief calling for a thief, so that the imperial court has a reason to send troops."

"As far as I know, there is only one way to lure them out." Ji Xiao's eyes darkened, "The last time the two of us entered the city, we were already remembered by the Demon Cult, so this time as long as one of us comes back to Go there, and it is possible to lure them out of the city."

It's just that what the Demon Cult pursues is not people, but immortal energy, and only those with immortal energy have the chance to lure the Demon Cult to the bait.

Hua Zhuo understood what he meant, and said clearly: "Then I..."

Ji Xiao interrupted him, and said slowly: "I'll go in a few days. For the next few days, I'll stay here and tell the outside world that I'm sick, and take a rest for a few days."

Ji Xiao raised his eyes and looked at him quietly, "And... you also have to stay here, you are not allowed to go anywhere, you understand?"

Hua Zhuo didn't want to understand, and said in a daze, "No... why did you enter the city? Shouldn't I be allowed to go? And why are you staying here these days? What are we going to do?"

"We..." Ji Xiao paused when he heard this, and couldn't help but move his gaze to his lips, his eyes were a little dark.

Hua Zhuo was startled by his stare, nervous for no reason.

Ji Xiao's eyes paused, worried that if he said it at this time, he would not be able to sleep, so he closed his eyes and said a little irritably: "... Forget it, let's talk about it tomorrow."

For no reason, Hua Zhuo's stomach hurts from being hung up by him.

"You rest earlier, I have something to do tonight, and I'll be back at Chenshi." Ji Xiao said expressionlessly.

Seeing him turn around to leave, Hua Zhuo sullenly called to him, "Leave now?"

Ji Xiao frowned, "Is there anything else?"

Hua Zhuo was a little unhappy, "You come here, don't you have anything else to do?"

Ji Xiao paused, and looked at his belt.

Hua Zhuo quickly covered her clothes and said angrily, "That's not what I meant!!"

Ji Xiao looked at him, "If there is something important, tell me now, I might not listen until tomorrow."

What do you mean you may not be able to listen tomorrow?

Hua Zhuo's chest felt tight immediately, and he said angrily, "Forget it, it's fine, I don't have anything important, you can go."

Ji Xiao was silent for a moment, then turned around and left.

Hua Zhuo stared at his back, took a deep breath, and exhaled slightly.

Today's flower drink: I'm angry!

Tomorrow's Huazhuo: I'm out of breath...
