Taoist help me live forever

Chapter 181 Hostage
Facing Patriarch Wu's surprise attack, Zhao Shiwen had no time to react.

In the final analysis, she is just a minor qi practitioner, and she is a whole realm behind Wu Patriarch, who is at the peak of Foundation Establishment.

Even if it's just a random move by Patriarch Wu, it's not something she can handle.

She shouldn't have been so ignorant.

Whether she was in charge of Zhaojiafang City back then or the tax department now, she hardly exposed herself to danger.

Since the development of the tax department, she has always been protected by two foundation monks by her side.

It's just that because of the relationship with Yulan at this moment, she lost her composure and exposed herself to Old Ancestor Wu's eyes.

Another thing, she didn't expect that Patriarch Wu would dare to make a move in front of Jiang Wang.

"Jiang Wang!"

Under the lock of Jianji's spiritual consciousness, Zhao Shiwen was like a bug solidified by grease, unable to resist at all, and only had time to call out Jiang Wang's name.

With this cry, Jiang Wang just woke up like a dream, and immediately stretched out his hand to grab it.

"stop!"

However it was too late.

With such a short distance, there is no room for hesitation.

Countless silk vines with teeth and claws turned into a giant rattan ball, completely wrapping Zhao Shiwen together.

Squeak squeak!

The takraw ball twisted and made a tooth-piercing sound, like strange pythons strangling the prey inside.

"Deputy Director Zhao!!"

Jiang Wang stepped forward, grabbed the takraw ball with both hands, and was about to tear it apart to rescue Zhao Shiwen.

"If you want her to die, get her out."

Old Ancestor Wu's slow words came over, and Jiang Wang paused.

"What do you mean?"

Patriarch Wu sneered and said, "This is a bloodthirsty vine specially cultivated by the old man, once it is stained with blood, it will take root in its flesh and blood.

At this moment, her body seems to be covered with bloodthirsty vine root system, if you tear this vine, even her body will be torn together.

One thought of the old man can also cause her intestines to be pierced to death.

At that time, because of brother Jiang, you killed the woman of the chief executive, and I don't know when you will come to accompany the old man. "

Jiang Wang looked cold.

"Are you forcing me?"

Patriarch Wu smiled, and said via voice transmission:
"I didn't expect that she would give me such a good opportunity. Now that I'm a hostage, Brother Jiang, even if you let me go, you won't let anyone find me wrong.

What the old man said just now is still valid, even the Five Elements Yuan Pill is refined and given to you.

As long as you, brother, make the oath of the heart demon, after breaking through the golden core, you will serve the old man for 50 years, and do your best to help the old man break through the golden core realm. "

Jiang Wang stared at Patriarch Wu, struggling slightly.

If it's something else, he won't be moved, but that's the golden core realm.

Even if it's just a fake alchemy realm of heretic golden elixir, even if he compares himself to Patriarch Jiang, he is somewhat sure of breaking through by himself.

But heretic golden elixir is still full of temptation for him.

Finally, under the expectant eyes of Wu Patriarch, Jiang Wang slowly lowered his jaw and said via voice transmission:
"I promise you, but I can't hurt Deputy Director Zhao, otherwise I can't explain to the general manager."

Ancestor Wu looked overjoyed and didn't talk nonsense. In front of Jiang Wang, he made a big oath, saying that he would give Jiang Wang the first refined five-element elixir. , Cultivation is greatly retreated, and it will not be a good death.

"Brother Jiang, I will definitely not let you down."

Jiang nodded without looking at the trace, and immediately shouted.

"Old Ancestor Wu, you dare to kidnap Deputy Director Zhao. If you don't want to wipe out the whole family, let Deputy Director Zhao go!"

Patriarch Wu was taken aback for a moment, then laughed loudly and said:
"Left and right are nothing more than death words. I can have Deputy Director Zhao accompanying me, and this old man has earned money! Jiang Wang, if you don't want Deputy Director Zhao to disappear, take someone back now."

Jiang Wang was furious: "Don't think about it!"

Patriarch Wu sneered, not giving in at all: "Then try."

The takraw ball began to squeeze and shrink, causing Zhao Shiwen inside to groan in pain.

"Director Jiang, leave me alone!"

Zhao Shiwen in the rattan ball made a sound.

Jiang Wang naturally would not obey, but made a helpless voice.

"Okay! Patriarch Wu, listen carefully. If Deputy Director Zhao loses a hair, I will let the Wu family do nothing!"

He lowered his figure and said to the monks of the Taxation Department and the Law Enforcement Department:

"You all step down first, we can't let Old Ancestor Wu hurt Deputy Director Zhao."

"Master Jiang, the deputy director was by your side just now, why didn't you stop Patriarch Wu?"

A Foundation Establishment cultivator from the tax department asked with an ugly face.

He is one of Zhao Shiwen's guards.

Now that something happened to Zhao Shiwen, he couldn't escape the responsibility afterwards.

Even if he is a foundation cultivator, the consequences will be extremely serious.

After all, there are not ten or eight Foundation Establishment cultivators who died under the Taxation Department these years.

Jiang Wang snorted coldly: "You didn't protect Deputy Director Zhao well, so you can blame this supervisor?

If Deputy Director Zhao hadn't suddenly come up to make trouble just now, this supervisor would have persuaded Patriarch Wu to surrender.

Now Deputy Director Zhao is not here, and this supervisor is the first person in charge of the scene. This supervisor ordered you to guard your surroundings and make sure that the Wu family cannot escape. "

After finishing speaking, Jiang Wang looked up at Patriarch Wu and said, "Patriarch Wu, if you don't want the Wu family to perish, don't hurt Deputy Director Zhao."

Patriarch Wu grabbed the takraw ball and dropped it into the mansion.

"This is the old man's amulet, and the old man will treat her well."

……

"Sister Shiwen!!"

Seeing that Zhao Shiwen was arrested, Yulan, who was fighting with the foundation-building monks of the Wu family, couldn't help feeling panicked, and said to herself:

"Why didn't your husband make a move?"

"Fight with me, dare to be distracted!"

Hearing a cold snort, the Wu family's Zhuji's inkstone artifact pinpointed the weak point of the peach handkerchief, and smashed it vigorously.

boom!
The pink tassel mask was crushed and broken, and several temporary workers of the tax department who had no time to escape were smashed to pieces and vomited blood.

Seeing this, Yulan didn't have time to think about Zhao Shiwen's question, and made a formula with both hands to reactivate the protective power of the peach blossom handkerchief.

She didn't expect her first assignment in the tax department to be so embarrassing.

She no longer waited for reinforcements, but fought and retreated.

Even if she stepped back for a while every time, the Wu family would find the right opportunity to kill a few temporary workers, she would ignore it.

Finally, the group retreated to the edge of the formation.

Yulan flipped her hands and took out a silver-white talisman, and with a sense of resentment, she hit the Wu family's formation heavily.

Ripples appeared on the cyan formation film, and a small hole appeared, and it was still growing slowly.

"Tier [-] forbidden talisman!"

The Wu family's Foundation Establishment cultivator's complexion changed, he no longer saved his mana, and started chasing and beating Yulan fiercely.

Seeing this, Yulan gritted her teeth and took out another silver-white talisman.

Snapped!
There was a crisp sound from the big formation, and then the fist-sized hole was torn apart quickly, turning into a portal that was as tall as a person.

"You go first!"

With a coquettish cry, Yulan protected many temporary workers to leave through the gap in the formation that was temporarily opened.

"Another Tier [-] Taboo Breaking Talisman?!"

Wu Jiazhuji's eyelids twitched, and he couldn't help but take another look at Yulan.

It is also a spiritual weapon and a forbidden talisman. Which family's foundation building is this, so arrogant?

Fortunately, the spiritual weapon can be passed down from generation to generation.

But the taboo-breaking talisman is a one-time item. The first-order talisman is relatively rare, and the second-order talisman is priceless. Not only is it hard to find the talisman maker, but it is also hard to find the material for making the talisman.

As a result, good guy, this guy got two cards.

Judging by her posture, it is not impossible to get a few more.

"Go away!"

The Wu family built the foundation repeatedly, and the foundation-building mana in the body poured out like a flood. The inkstone magic weapon suddenly swelled, and there were slight cracks at the bottom, and a layer of thick green and black rays of light erupted on the inkstone magic weapon.

Immediately afterwards, the inkstone magic weapon dropped a series of black water arrows, hitting the shield of Yulan's spiritual weapon, making a hissing and corrosive sound.

Yulan felt that the connection between herself and the spirit weapon was loosened, and the spirit weapon that was wielding like an arm just now felt an obscure stiffness, and a tingling and tingling sensation came up along the meridians.

"receive!"

The temporary workers withdrew quickly, and they all evacuated from the formation in just three or four breaths. Seeing this, Yulan quickly put away the spirit weapon, and she also retreated into the portal.

Wu Jiazhuji sneered and watched Yulan flee in embarrassment, and took back the magic weapon, and saw that the inkstone was covered with cracks, and it seemed that it would shatter in the next moment.

"Being poisoned by my ink fragrance, you will feel better."

……

"Five Elements Yuan Pill?"

Outside the Wu Mansion, Shi Shiran came to Yu Xian after listening to Jiang Wang's report, looked at him with a half-smile and said:

"Director Jiang, you're not tempted if you're willing to tell Director Ben such important news?"

Jiang Wang couldn't help but feel a shudder behind him, only to feel that there was a little more pressure in Yu Xian's eyes that he couldn't understand.

Obviously this guy is an ordinary foundation cultivator.

"The subordinates are naturally moved, but the subordinates also understand a truth, if you have your life, you have to have your life to enjoy it.

These treasures should be enjoyed by the general manager. "

It's not that he hasn't been tempted, it's just that he hasn't even seen the real thing, just because Patriarch Wu opened his mouth, he will put the lives of the whole family on the gambling table, this is not his style.

The most important thing is that he is still young, unlike Patriarch Wu who can only put all his eggs in one basket.

If possible, he would like to try to break through the golden core realm by himself.

After all, the realm of fake alchemy is the realm of fake alchemy, which cannot compare with real golden alchemy.

The most critical is a question.

Although Zhenren Yu didn't show his face, a ray of divine light made the Jinpeng Demon King defeat the battle that day. This level of strength is really too terrifying.

Even if Patriarch Wu's Five Elements Yuan Pill is real, even if Patriarch Wu kept his promise to hand over the Five Elements Yuan Pill to him, even if he swallowed the Five Elements Yuan Pill to become a heretic Golden Pill, is he an opponent of Yu Zhenren?

Did he work so hard just to have a fight with Zhenren Yu and lose the lives of the whole clan?

Not to mention that the former City Lord Xiao or the current City Lord Wu are both suspected of having golden core combat power.

This level of strength, how can a fake alchemy realm be able to resist.

After calming down, Jiang Wang broke into a cold sweat, and then decisively sold Patriarch Wu.

With his hands hanging down, Yu Xian turned around to look at the big formation outside Wu's mansion that was shining with blue light, and asked suddenly:

"I heard that when Shiwen had an accident, you were by the side, didn't you stop me?"

Jiang Wang swallowed, knowing that the proposition was coming.

At that time, he was attracted by the Five Elements Yuan Pill, Zhao Shiwen came suddenly, and the timing of Wu Patriarch's shot was just right...

Of course, this is not the reason, the real reason is that he hesitated.

After hesitating for a while, Patriarch Wu caught him.

This little hesitation proved that he had bad intentions, and if he did not answer well, he might attract the grudge from the chief manager.

After thinking about it again and again, Jiang Wang decided not to explain, but to admit his mistake directly.

"It's the subordinate's incompetence, so Patriarch Wu robbed Deputy Director Zhao, please punish him!"

There is no excuse, no reason, that he is useless.

This is the best explanation.

But Yu Xian paid attention the whole time, so how could he not know what happened at that time.

Although he said that he wanted to practice for Yulan, how could he not be present in such a dangerous scene.

At that time, he was able to save Zhao Shiwen, but he didn't make a move.

Zhao Shiwen has been going smoothly for too long, and even the Lin family and other aristocratic families of cultivating immortals have sunk into the west under her blows, and there are a handful of direct descendants who have built foundations under her hand, so she also developed her indomitable temperament and lost the sense of awe she should have. Heart.

Both Patriarch Wu and Jiang Wang were at the peak of Foundation Establishment.

She is a little qi cultivator, no matter what the reason is, she dares to intervene in the battle between the two of them casually, she really thinks her cultivation is just a display.

So she should also have a longer memory.

Otherwise, when he leaves in the future, if he remains like this, something will happen sooner or later.

As for safety, Zhao Shiwen is the amulet of Patriarch Wu, but the whole family of the Wu family is also Zhao Shiwen's amulet.

Of course, if Old Ancestor Wu really couldn't think about it and killed Zhao Shiwen suddenly, that would be her fate.

Afterwards, he would let the whole Wu family, including the blood of the Wu family, be buried with her.

That scare should be enough for now.

Yu Xian said to Jiang Wang: "You contact Patriarch Wu and say that I am willing to exchange hostages with Zhao Shiwen. With me as a hostage, Patriarch Wu must be more at ease."

Jiang Wang was shocked. If Yu Xian was taken hostage, wouldn't he have sold his teammates for nothing.

"My lord, it is absolutely impossible, without you, who can take charge of the overall situation?

Moreover, if Patriarch Wu catches you, there must be no one to control you, and then he will really let the tiger go back to the mountain. "

"Needless to say, Shiwen is my woman, so what does it matter if I take a small risk for her?
Even if Patriarch Wu really became a fake monk, would he still dare to provoke a real person?

As long as he doesn't dare to break his face with the real person, then I'll be fine. "

Yu Xian analyzed it seriously.

In fact, if he stood there and let Old Ancestor Wu hit him, it wouldn't hurt him at all.

The gap between the Foundation Establishment cultivator and Jindan Daoist is too great.

Hearing this, Jiang Wang's expression turned pale.

But soon he came back to his senses.

Since the Chief Manager is willing to risk his life for the sake of a beauty, he simply takes the credit for himself and continues his cooperative relationship with Patriarch Wu.

When Patriarch Wu finished refining the Five Elements Yuan Pill, he would play by ear.

After all, according to the intention of the chief manager, let him continue to work as an undercover agent.

Both sides are their own people, and they will not be defensive against themselves. Maybe the final winner is themselves?

Jiang Wang was refreshed, and felt that this matter had a lot to do, so he immediately took the order and prepared to persuade Wu Patriarch to change the hostage.

……

That night.

In front of the gate of the Wu Mansion.

Patriarch Wu led Zhao Shiwen, who was pale and bleeding, behind the formation, while Jiang Wang and Yu Xian were opposite.

"My lord, I really admire people who love beauties but not country."

Old Ancestor Wu smiled but didn't smile, and said sadly:

"Since Master Chief loves beauties so much, aren't you afraid that the old man will leak the events of that day to Master Luo?"

Yu Xian said indifferently: "Fellow Daoist Wu, the relationship between Han'er and I is stronger than gold, how can a little rumor be shaken.

Let's exchange hostages. With me here, no one will stop you if you leave with the Wu family members. "

But Old Ancestor Wu smiled and said, "It's rare for Mr. Manager to come to our Wu Manor as a guest. Why don't you stay for a while? I also need to pack up my things slowly. I don't want to leave the city yet."

The refining site of the Five Elements Pill is not available anywhere.

However, there is his usual alchemy venue in the Wu Mansion, changing the place may reduce the success rate by [-] to [-] percent out of thin air.

Now that there is Yu Xian as a hostage, there is no need to worry about safety for the time being.

Yu Xian frowned and said, "You want to keep me as a hostage?

Fellow Daoist Wu, please don't make mistakes. After a long time, once Zhenren Yu is alarmed, the entire Wu family will not be what I want to protect. "

Old Ancestor Wu said: "I believe that everyone will help me keep the secret. How about it, for three months, as long as the Chief Manager stays in the Wu Mansion for three months, we will send the Chief Manager away at that time."

Yu Xian pretended to hesitate, nodded after a while and said: "Okay."

One of the reasons why he was willing to be a hostage was also to see what the Five Elements Yuan Pill was.

"Your Majesty has been wronged."

Patriarch Wu stretched out his hand and pushed, a green seed floated in front of Yu Xian.

"This is the heart-eating seed developed by the old man. As long as the old man is reminded, it can grow rapidly and devour the internal organs."

Yu Xian clicked his finger, and the real fire of foundation establishment emerged, burning the seeds into ashes.

"This general manager is only in the early stage of foundation building, is it true that Fellow Daoist Wu is still confident that he can't take me down?

I don't know how to eat this kind of heart-eating species. I am not used to having more messy things in my stomach. "

Although he is confident that the golden core realm will crush everyone, who knows if some weird methods can kill him.

He would never make such a small mistake.

Seeing that the seeds were destroyed, Patriarch Wu felt a pain in his spirit, and immediately pinched Zhao Shiwen's neck behind him with his claws, and said coldly:
"My lord, Deputy Director Zhao's life is still in the hands of the old man."

Yu Xian was not threatened at all, and replied with a sneer:

"The manager will give you three counts of time. If you don't exchange hostages, I will let people kill you. The blood of the Wu family will not stay, and will not die!"

"you?!"

Patriarch Wu was very wronged, obviously he was the one holding the hostage.

"one!"

"two!"

Over there, Yu Xian has already started counting.

Patriarch Wu hurriedly shouted: "Alright, change!"

"Please, my lord, enter the battle!"

Patriarch Wu opened a small portal.

Yu Xian walked in calmly, saw Zhao Shiwen with a pale complexion, gently stroked her face with his palm, and said with some distress:

"Are you okay?"

"I am fine."

Zhao Shiwen shook her head, with tears in her eyes, full of emotion, she never thought that Yu Xian would be willing to exchange hostages with her.

Obviously she no longer expected to get more love from Yu Xian, but suddenly a huge surprise hit her.

At this time, she was both surprised and guilty.

"My lord, I'm sorry, I'm the one who got you into trouble."

Yu Xian smiled: "What trouble do you say, you are my woman, but don't be so impulsive next time.

If Fellow Daoist Wu is not sensible enough, you have already become a manure in his yard right now. "

"Fellow Daoist Wu, why is Shiwen's complexion so bad? Have you treated her badly?"

Yu Xian frowned and questioned the crime on the spot.

Patriarch Wu's aura was suppressed, he was clearly the one talking, but now he was being scolded like a younger brother.

He was full of aggrieved, but still kept smiling and said:

"Please rest assured, Mrs. Zhao, Miss Zhao's complexion is due to excessive blood loss. In the mansion, this old man is treated as a VIP, and I will never dare to offend Miss Zhao."

"I don't dare to forgive you."

Yu Xian whispered a few more words to Zhao Shiwen, and then asked her to leave the Wu Mansion.

"Go back and have a good rest, and everything will be fine once you sleep."

"Fellow Daoist Wu, I didn't have time to take a good look around last time I came here, this time you have to fulfill your duties as a host."

Patriarch Wu felt that he was the guest.

Ma De, is it great to have a real person as a backer?
Seeing Yu Xian striding towards the inner courtyard, Patriarch Wu gave himself the answer.

That's right, it's great to have a real person as a backer.

For a while, he was even more eager to refine the Five Elements Yuan Pill.

If you become a Jindan real person, even if it's just a fake alchemy realm, you don't have to be overwhelmed by a young junior anymore.
