Chapter 33: garrison
"My name is Li Shiming, I came to Zhongdu to participate in the Spring Festival, and at the same time I am going to participate in the promotion conference next year!" Li Shiming did not dare to make any changes, he honestly reported his identity and the purpose of coming to Zhongdu.
"Where did your cultivation base come from? Why do you linger near the imperial city?" Gu Jia asked in disbelief when he heard that he was here to attend the Immortal Ascension Conference and also to attend the Spring Festival.
"I found a book in the back garden of the Nanling Mansion. I practiced according to the cultivation method in the book. I came to the Imperial City just to see it!" Li Shiming replied with a 90 percent falsehood.
"Nonsense, you can't even get started without a spiritual qi environment, how can you reach the second level of qi refining?" Gu Jia's face sank, a pressure fell on him, and he shouted in a deep voice.
Li Shiming only felt that his whole body was heavy, and his body could not help but become shorter, almost lying on his stomach in the carriage.
"Two months ago, two immortals went to Nanling Mansion to investigate a case, and then left inexplicably. At that time, the two immortals lived in the mansion. I found some spiritual stones in the room after the two immortals left. I used the spiritual stone to cultivate the spiritual vortex." Li Shiming explained quickly.
Gu Jia was stationed in Daxia, so he naturally knew that there was a monk requesting assistance in Nanling Mansion.
Comparing before and after, you can see that Li Shiming's words are generally true.
"How did you get the name Lingshi?" Gu Jia's eyes flashed, and he found the loophole in Li Shiming's words and asked.
"I met cultivator Fan Yiyang from Tianhaizong, and he told me a lot about the world of immortality!" Li Shiming replied.
"You still know Fan Yiyang!" Gu Jia said in surprise, then he withdrew his coercion and said with a smile: "I will investigate your matter, but you don't have to worry, as long as you don't lie, it will be very important for you to participate in the Ascension to Immortals. The conference is good!"
"Thank you for your mercy!" Li Shiming sighed in relief, straightened his body and cupped his hands.
"Didn't Fan Yiyang tell you that monks can't approach the palace casually?" Gu Jia waved his hand to stop his salute and asked.
Li Shiming couldn't help but shook his head with a wry smile. He didn't tell Fan Yiyang that he was coming to the palace. How could Fan Yiyang think of saying this.
He also understood why he was stopped by the powerful cultivator Gu Jia. It turned out that he was sent to the door.
"Do you have a grudge against Prince Shun?" Gu Jia asked suddenly.
"This..." Li Shiming didn't know how to answer this question for a while, he didn't dare to deceive Gu Jia.
"There's nothing to say about this, it's just a prince in the world!" Gu Jia said with a big smile.
From his words, Li Shiming could hear his disdain for the secular royal family.
It's just that Li Shiming couldn't understand. Since he looked down on the secular royal family, why should he still be stationed here?
"Last night, I was assassinated by an assassin sent by Prince Shun's mansion!" Li Shiming knew Gu Jia's attitude, so he answered without concealment.
"Haha!" Gu Jia laughed again, as if he had heard something ridiculous.
Yes, it sounds ridiculous to Gu Jia. The secular Prince Shun sent an assassin to assassinate a cultivator, even if the cultivator was only on the second level of Qi Refining, it was extremely ridiculous.
The funny thing is of course Prince Shun. Gu Jia thought about it. If Prince Shun knew that the target of assassination was a cultivator, he probably wouldn't even sleep peacefully.
"You can't do it near the palace. Besides, if you have other means, try not to use your spiritual power. If something goes wrong, it won't be under my control!" Gu Jia said nonchalantly after laughing.
Li Shiming was stunned. He didn't expect Gu Jia to help him.
"Thank you, senior!" He bowed and thanked.
"Don't call me senior, we are all in the qi refining period. You call me Daoist brother, and when you join the Tianhai Sect, you will have to call me senior brother!" Gu Jia waved his hand and said.
He was old and mature, and he heard that most of Li Shiming's words were true, and it was easy to investigate.
As long as Li Shiming has a clean net worth, and Li Shiming has attained the qualification of the second level of Qi refining after practicing alone for more than two months, it is not a problem to join the Tianhai Sect.
On this point, Gu Jia and Fan Yiyang have the same view.
The monks who can be assigned to the secular world are either monks with extremely poor talent like Fan Yiyang, or half-aged monks like Gu Jia. There is no room for improvement in this life.
The task of coming to the secular garrison is not dangerous, and you can get rewards and the enshrined of the royal family.
Such monks all have one characteristic, that is, they hope to make friends with talented seedlings, and even invest.
Cultivators always have to care about their old feelings. No matter whether this kind of care is for others to see, or to stabilize their own Taoism, after the monks have successfully cultivated, they will thank the monks who have helped them.
"Thank you, Brother Daoist for your guidance!" Li Shiming changed his title.
"Little friend, come back first, and contact me in a few days!" Gu Jia waved at Mo Yan while saying that.
Then his figure disappeared inexplicably, and there was no one in front of the carriage.
Li Shiming was secretly shocked, but he kept watching, but he didn't see how Gu Jia left.
If there is a conflict~www.readwn.com~ he probably doesn't even know how he died.
He reluctantly threw his consciousness into the computer room space. There were five 'white phosphorus bombs' and five 'thermite bombs' in the box, but he couldn't even move it before.
Even if the 'white phosphorus bomb' and the 'thermite bomb' were taken out, they couldn't be thrown, and they could only perish together.
He is not sure about the death, but Gu Jia's speed is too fast, and he can't see it clearly. In this case, the probability of wanting to blow up Gu Jia is too low.
"Young master, someone is blocking the way!" Mo Yan said to himself when he woke up, his mind was still a little unclear.
"Huh, what about people?" He quickly realized that there was no one in front of him, and exclaimed.
"Don't yell, go back!" Li Shiming ordered in a deep voice without explaining to him.
Mo Yan was driving the carriage, and from time to time he looked back at the place just now. His mind was very confused. It seemed that the previous thing had happened, and it seemed that nothing had happened.
Li Shiming sat in the carriage, thinking about Gu Jia.
Unlike Fan Yiyang, Fan Yiyang was just a chance encounter on the road, and I don't know how long it will be before we meet again.
Gu Jia is based in the Central Capital, and most importantly, Gu Jia is also connected to the Ascension Conference.
If it is only related to the Ascension Conference, Li Shiming must have a good relationship with Gu Jia.
The only thing he was able to take out, besides spiritual rice, was spiritual tea.
He doesn't really want to take out Lingdao, because Gu Jia will know that he can't grow Lingdao as long as he investigates his past.
The hundred kilograms sold to Fan Yiyang can also be explained as an accidental acquisition, but it is somewhat difficult to explain if he takes out a lot of Lingmi.
Although Lingcha is fake Lingcha, it is the best thing he can come up with in the end.
