ninety thousand miles

Chapter 363 Vacation
Li Chuan recalled the people and things he had come into contact with in the Xuanyue Sect. What he remembered most was Liu Yang and the eight swords he carried on his back. He said: "If the Xuanyue Sect really colludes with Prince Su and the remnants of the demon race, then at the Xuantai Spiritual Light Meeting, did they..."

"You will always know." Gong Wuguang said. When he saw Li Chuan's face was heavy, he comforted him and said, "Maybe it's just a few of them, or the same lineage, or maybe I was too suspicious and my guess was wrong. We are in the Ming Dynasty, The enemy is hiding, but as long as you stick to your heart, take advantage of every move, and not mess up your position, you can always find the enemy's flaws and annihilate them in one fell swoop."

"Then what should I do next?" Li Chuan asked.

Gong Wuguang said: "In seven days, it will be His Majesty's birthday. On that day, you can also go to the palace. Prince Su and the people behind him have been planning for so long, so they must have other means. Of course, I don't have any. Don’t make any arrangements. Anyway, when you go, you can eat in peace and drink less.”

"Okay." Li Chuan agreed.

"You should have a good rest these days," Gong Wuguang warned him again: "You can do whatever you want, just remember one thing, don't leave the capital. It's best to let Ah Rong or Qingyun follow you."

"In that case, Brother Bo will hate me. Everyone is so busy, so I can just stay away from work, and I have to take away another worker," Li Chuan said and laughed. He said, "The supervisor is , I just wander around the city at most and never go out.”

Gong Wuguang said: "Okay, as long as you don't leave the capital."

After Gong Wuguang left, Li Chuan did not leave the room.

He looked out the window and saw a gust of wind blowing, and a few autumn leaves fell. He stood up and walked to the door. The sky was blue and clear. People walked by from time to time on the path not far away. Koi fish were swimming in the pond.

After that, he brought a rectangular wooden tray and placed it on the table. On the tray is a sword pieced together from fragments. Li Chuan picked up the pen and drew the cracks on it bit by bit.

Li Chuan thought about what Jiang Song and Gong Wuguang said today several times in his mind. He had no clue. Then he thought about Jiang Bailai and wondered what happened to him. There was also Daochang Wen. It had been half a month. He had No chance to get him...

When I looked out the window again, the red clouds had covered half of the sky.

After studying Zuihongjie, Li Chuan went to look at the patterns he drew on the paper. Unknowingly, he had drawn more than ten pieces of paper.

So he walked back and flipped through a few pages of the Pattern Sutra. As he read it, his heart slowly calmed down.

In the end, it seemed that only black and white were left in front of him, with chaotic knife marks everywhere.

He always felt that there was something missing from Gong Wuguang's speculation. It wasn't that it was wrong, it was just missing something, but... thinking about it, Li Chuan shook his head. He was really not good at using his brain, so he might as well do something he could. Just do it.

Li Chuan suddenly raised his pen and seemed to see a dark red light in the corner of his eyes. The drunken red ring is glowing? Li Chuan's consciousness returned to reality, and soon after, he felt that the barrier between him and Zuihong Ring disappeared.

He took out the Tianyin pot, put it in, and took it out again. After a few times, he became proficient. The space inside is much larger than the Bishui Ring. When I get back, I will take the time to sort it out and put more things in it.

His mind slowly fell into it, and one picture after another emerged in his mind. The shadows surged down from the Katy Mountain. The main peak cracked, and the cracks continued to expand, spreading deeper and piercing into the spiritual veins...

The patterns in "The Pattern Sutra" also turned over page by page in his mind, some he understood, and some he hadn't yet understood, and he slowly began to dismantle them stroke by stroke.

At this time, Jin Rong walked by the window. He stopped by the door, put away his fan, and joked with a smile: "Brother Li, Brother Li, I heard that the master let you go, but I still want to follow you and hide." I’ve been lazy for a few days, but I’ve finished what I was doing and you’re still working hard.”

"I didn't pay attention to the time," Li Chuan explained casually with a smile, then stood up, walked to Jin Rong, and said, "Before Daozhang Wen left, I praised Haikou and said that I would start mending my sword when he came back. I don’t have a clue yet.”

Then he said: "Brother Jin, you are busy, so don't worry about me. I told Jian Zheng that I will never leave the capital these days." Jin Rong thought for a while and said, "That's fine."

Then, the two of them walked out together.

Jin Rong said: "Master asked me and the third junior brother just now. He has found all the infected people in the capital..."

"Have you found it?" Li Chuan was very surprised. He was just thinking about the room and was in a daze for a while. Why did they do such a big thing?
Jin Rong said: "Yes, the master improved the technique, swept the entire capital with his spiritual thoughts, and combined with the roster provided by the third junior brother, he found everyone." He paused and said, "I may have missed a few. But most of them are definitely there.”

"How many people are infected in total?" Li Chuan asked.

"Not many, maybe a hundred. Among them, more than seventy of them are sick, and they are all related to the servants that Mr. Zhang dispersed before. The remaining twenty or thirty are not sick, and they are all related to Prince Su. "Recent officials and the like." Jin Rong replied, "Most of them will attend His Majesty's birthday banquet, so we must deal with them before the birthday."

"What about Prince Su? Where are the people in the troupe?" Li Chuan asked.

"There are two infected people in the palace." Jin Rong said.

"Just two?" Li Chuan was very surprised.

"Well, we'll find out how it goes when we get to the palace." Jin Rong said.

The two chatted while walking and soon returned to their residence.

The next day, Jin Rong went out early in the morning, while Li Chuan rarely slept in. When he woke up, he still felt a little guilty, so he turned over and took another short nap. When he woke up again , I felt refreshed.

After getting up and eating a meat pie and a bowl of porridge, he called Gong Er and Pang San out and said, "Second brother, third brother, don't you want to go shopping in Dongcheng? Let's go now?"

Gong Er was very happy to hear this and asked: "Why is eldest brother free today?"

Li Chuan said: "It's done for now."

"I'm going to change clothes, big brother, wait for me." Gonger said, jumping down from the table.

The third person next to him turned into a human form and obviously wanted to go out.

So Li Chuan asked the steward to prepare a carriage. After the second man had changed his clothes, one man and two demons got into the carriage and drove towards the east city.

Soon, we arrived at Dongcheng.

Dongcheng was very lively. Li Chuan and the others first went to the fruit shop Gong Er mentioned and bought some of various varieties. Seeing that Gong Er looked cute, the shopkeeper gave them a lot of extras. After that, they ate, shopped and played. After getting a little tired, Li Chuan saw a teahouse not far away, so he walked in with his father and three others, and found an empty seat in the lobby to sit down.
