Lord of Puro

Chapter 495 Hua Jiuer, do you have a sister?
There were more than thirty corpses lying on the ground, and among the more than fifty members of the Boundless Camp, only thirteen escaped from the battlefield.

Liao Zihui wanted to give chase, but Shuiyun Road and even the Qingtian River were in chaos.

Although Liao Zihui tried his best to control the scale of the battle, a war cannot be fought without noise.

The people around were terrified. It would have been fine if they all hid at home, but many people were running for their lives on the streets carrying large and small bags. This situation was now a little difficult to handle.

Liao Zihui was in a dilemma when Zheng Siyi stepped forward and delivered a message: Li Qi and He Yuxiu were coming over and the remnants of the Wujie Camp would be wiped out soon.

Liao Zihui had to quickly change his role and become a mediator, ordering his men to maintain order and persuade all the people to go back home.

As the place was busy, a man in his fifties named Fu Qingguang came up to Liao Zihui and said in a low voice, "General, the magnetic field around here is a little different."

Zheng Siyi was watching from the side, he had no idea what role this Fu Qingguang played.

Fu Qingguang came from Lushui City with Liao Zihui. Although he did not hold a high position, he was never restrained when talking to Liao Zihui.

Liao Zihui was also very concerned about what Fu Qingguang said: "Is there a trap?"

He was worried that the Light Chasing Group had left a backup plan here. If the trap was triggered now, who knows how many people would die on this road alone.

Fu Qingguang said: "It's hard to say whether it's a trap or not. I sensed a magnetic monopole."

A magnetic monopole is a particle that exhibits a single polarity in a magnetic field.

The presence of magnetic monopoles can be sensed, proving that there is invisible space nearby.

Liao Zihui ordered, "Get the equipment and investigate quickly."

A group of people got busy. They first set up a flatbed truck, mounted the photovoltaic panels on the truck, adjusted the angle, and connected the output end of the panel to a "gun barrel".

This gun barrel is not used to launch shells. It is a special equipment for finding gaps in space. In Prostate, electricity cannot be transmitted over long distances, so this "gun barrel" must have its own power supply.

Fu Qingguang stood behind the barrel, watching the data change. After searching back and forth for more than half an hour, Fu Qingguang pointed to a pavilion on the street and said, "General, the entrance is here."

This pavilion usually houses many sedan chair bearers, but after the commotion just now, all of them ran away.

Liao Zihui first ordered everyone to retreat, and Fu Qingguang controlled the equipment to carry out the next step.

The so-called instrument is still this flatbed cart, but the "gun barrel" is no longer used.

Fu Qingguang took out a 15-centimeter-long steel needle and inserted half of it into the top of his head, leaving the remaining half exposed outside his scalp.

He removed the output line of the photovoltaic panel from the "gun barrel" and wrapped it around the steel needle on his head. Bursts of noise came from his ears.

sizzle~ la la~
The signal is not good.

Fu Qingguang shook his head to the left, then leaned forward. The noise faded away, and a woman's voice faintly came to his ears:

"All male listeners know that after the age of 50, people will feel powerless in some aspects. A friend named Luo once called me and said that he had tried many drugs, but the effect was not obvious..."

Fu Qingguang muttered, "This radio station is causing trouble again."

But he really wanted to listen a little longer. What was said on the radio was very important in dealing with Qingguang. The four words "incapable of doing anything" hit him hard.

The friend he mentioned with the surname Luo, could it be Luo Zhengnan? He should be of age now.

The host didn't get to the point for a long time and just kept talking nonsense. It was unbearable to listen to him anymore. There were so many people waiting here. Fu Qingguang shook his head and turned off the radio channel.

After readjusting his position, Fu Qingguang heard some sharp sounds.

Facing the direction of the sound source, Fu Qingguang connected a homemade searchlight above his head, and a blue-green beam of light came out of the lampshade.

Under the illumination of the beam, in less than two minutes, a deep purple halo appeared next to the pillar of the pavilion.

This is the entrance to the invisible space. Liao Zihui lowered his voice and asked, "Is it the dark dimension?"

Fu Qingguang looked at the color of the halo carefully and shook his head, saying, "It's an invisible space."

Liao Zihui breathed a sigh of relief. Anonymous space is also rare, but it is much safer than dark dimension space.

He waved his hand and asked his men to get ready. Six of them put on heavy combat uniforms, fully enclosed helmets, carried oxygen cylinders, and entered the halo.

Chu Shaoqiang watched in secret, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

He had just entered this invisible space once, and he knew that this was the residence of the local god.

There is something very important inside, but he can't take it out for the time being.

The six subordinates stayed in the halo for more than half an hour, and five of them walked out first.

Liao Zihui frowned and asked, "Where's Xiao Meng?"

One of the subordinates said in a trembling voice: "Xiao Meng touched something inside. He didn't mean to do it. I told him not to touch it again, but he said that since it was already like this, he might as well take it out..."

Liao Zihui frowned and asked, "What did you touch?"

Before he finished speaking, the subordinate named Xiao Meng came out.

He held a red copper ornament in his hand.

It was a lotus with its petals tightly closed.

Xiao Meng's face turned pale and he asked, "General, is this the Xuansheng Red Lotus?"

He was scared.

Liao Zihui thought about the photo of Xuan Sheng Honglian, then looked at the ornament in Xiao Meng's hand, and was speechless for a moment.

Isn't the Xuansheng Red Lotus in Li Qi's hands? How come it is here?
Everyone was astonished. Xiao Meng, who was holding Honglian, suddenly lit up.

Xiao Meng's tears kept flowing down: "General, what should I do?"

……

"Seventh Brother, look what that is?" He Yuxiu opened the skull of a member of the Boundless Camp and threw the body aside. She looked at a beam of light falling from the sky above the street in front of her.

Li Banfeng was very familiar with this light: "Skylight."

He Yuxiu nodded: "It looks like that to me too. Who is the unlucky person who got caught in the sunlight?"

Li Banfeng took He Yuxiu and walked towards the direction of the light beam.

On Shuiyun Road, next to the pavilion, Liao Zihui was shouting, "Go get the guide agent, quick!"

Xiao Meng used his last bit of strength to place Honglian on the stone table in the pavilion.

Then his body stiffened and he lay motionless on the ground.

Li Banfeng was watching in the crowd and was very surprised. From the appearance, the red lotus on the stone table was exactly the same as the one in Suishenju.

This red lotus can actually attract the light of heaven?

Li Banfeng lowered the brim of his hat.

The face beneath the brim of the hat was full of confusion and bewilderment.

The guide agent was brought, which was a syringe filled with yellow-green liquid.

No one dared to approach Xiao Meng. Liao Zihui picked up the syringe and personally injected the guide agent into Xiao Meng's blood vessels.

This was the first time that Li Banfeng saw a guide agent from other states. In terms of effect, it was probably not much different from the peddler’s powder.

Liao Zihui helped Xiao Meng up, saying, "It's okay, kid, it's okay."

Xiao Meng panted for a moment and said, "General, I was impatient. It's my fault. I, I feel much better."

"It will be fine in a while." Liao Zihui supported Xiao Meng and asked someone to bring a stretcher.

Xiao Meng said: "I feel like I can move now, so I shouldn't need a stretcher."

Liao Zihui said: "Don't move, take it slow, you'll need to rest for a few months after being exposed to the sun, you first..."

boom!
Xiao Meng exploded, and blood and flesh splattered all over Liao Zihui.

The guide agent from other states is obviously not as effective as the peddler's powder.

Blood flowed down his hair, Liao Zihui stood there in a daze. A group of people wanted to step forward to protect the envoy, but they were a little scared.

The red lotus on the stone table slowly bloomed, drawing all of Xiao Meng's flesh and blood into the lotus heart.

The lotus leaves closed, and beams of light moved upward on the lotus.

Liao Zihui was shocked and speechless.

Li Banfeng was as surprised as he was.

He Yuxiu said, "Oh my god, this is the Xuansheng Red Lotus. Lao Qi, we must stay away from this thing and must not touch it. Lao Qi, what are you thinking?"

Li Banfeng turned to look at He Yuxiu and said, "Xiu'er, let's go home."

He Yuxiu looked at Honglian again and followed Li Banfeng.

……

In the Customs Office, Liao Zihui sat in his office, listening to Zheng Siyi's report.

"Master, we have used machinery to seal the Xuansheng Red Lotus in a stone box."

"Is this useful?" Liao Zihui felt that using tools could not block the negative effects of Red Lotus.

Zheng Siyi said: "The personnel operating the machine have not shown any abnormalities for the time being, and professional medical personnel are monitoring them in real time."

Liao Zihui nodded: "Has the report been submitted?"

"It's been hit."

"Any response from above?"

"I inquired about it and they are still in a meeting to study it."

"They've been researching for so long?" Liao Zihui smiled. "Guess what they're researching?"

Zheng Siyi thought about it and said, "He must be studying how to send Honglian out of Pro Province."

Liao Zihui shook his head: "This is not the point."

Zheng Siyi was surprised and asked, "Isn't this the point?"

Liao Zi sighed: "For you and me, this is the top priority, but for them, this has never been the focus.
Send more people to keep an eye on Honglian, and tell me immediately if there is any news from above."

At two o'clock in the morning, Zheng Siyi knocked on the office door.

Liao Zihui hadn't slept all night, he knew there would be news tonight.

"Director Du called."

Liao Zihui went to the communications room and adjusted his breathing before picking up the receiver.

"Director Du, I, we have been waiting for your news." With just this sentence, Liao Zihui's breath was interrupted several times.

Director Du asked with concern: "Old Liao, what's wrong with you? Are you too tired? You should pay more attention to your health. We just finished the meeting here. We hope to transport Honglian to another state as soon as possible, but at the same time, we also need to deal with the aftermath of Ye Songqiao.
The confidentiality of this operation was not in place, and we are worried that it will have a bad impact on Ye Songqiao and even the entire Pro Province, so we must attach great importance to these two tasks. "

These words were vague, but Liao Zihui heard them clearly.

They asked to send Honglian over, but it would be better if that person was not Liao Zihui.

They hoped that Liao Zihui would deal with the aftermath at Ye Songqiao and do some work equivalent to that of toilet paper.

They hope to leave more valuable work to more valuable people.

This incident caused quite a stir. Director Du has pointed out the problem and the confidentiality work was not done well.

No matter how hard the people responsible for handling the aftermath try, it is impossible for there to be no problems at all. Just like in some places, no matter how hard you wipe the toilet paper, it just won't be clean and will leave you with a smell.

Sending Honglian back to another state safely is another matter. If expressed properly, this achievement may even be greater than discovering Honglian.

Director Du was worried that Liao Zihui would not agree, so he planned to further persuade and guide him.

Liao Zihui knew very well that he would not take credit for the work, but he also did not want the toilet paper. He coughed twice and said, "Director Du, you can arrange the rest.

I was affected by the dark matter flow and my body is still a little stiff. I may need to go back to another state for treatment."

Director Du was very surprised: "Lao Liao, you were injured during the operation? Why didn't you report this earlier?"

Liao Zihui said: "The situation is urgent, and my men are still injured. I, for a moment, really didn't pay attention..."

"Don't talk about it for now, Lao Liao, send a special train immediately to take you back to another state for treatment tonight."

After hanging up the phone, Director Du breathed a sigh of relief.

He picked up the phone and dialed another number: "Teacher, the problem is solved."

"Xiao Du, the key issue is not when Honglian will be brought back, but who will bring Honglian back.
In this work, we have achieved very important results, but we must make it clear that the results were not achieved by Liao Zihui alone! "

"Teacher, you are right. The task of escorting Honglian this time will definitely not be given to Liao Zihui. Liao Zihui has to leave Pro Province for treatment due to health reasons. The next stage of the work will be handed over to Xia Shumin."

"I think this is a good way to deal with it. Since Liao Zihui is ill, he should rest for a while. I don't know much about the situation in Pro Province, but I know Xiao Xia's abilities. It's time to give more responsibilities to motivated young people!"

……

At Ye Songqiao Railway Station, Liao Zihui was pushed into the carriage with his bed. Zheng Siyi came to see him off: "General Manager, he was fine before, but at such a critical moment, how come..."

Liao Zihui sent the people around him away and said to Zheng Siyi in a low voice, "Go back immediately and guard the customs hall. Before Xia Shumin comes, you are not allowed to leave the customs hall again.
Only when you are here, can your subordinates pay attention, the Guanfang Hall can be in good shape, and Honglian can be defended. If you leave, Honglian will be gone in the blink of an eye.

When Xia Shumin sends someone to deliver Honglian, you must remember to make the handover at the Guanfang Hall. After the handover is completed, you and your people are not allowed to leave the Guanfang Hall, and are not allowed to have any contact with Honglian. "

Zheng Siyi felt that this was not a good idea: "Xia Shumin is here, and I don't even go to the station?"

"You don't need to go. He has plenty of people around him. You just need to do two things for me.
First, Xiao Meng's compensation must be in place. Watch carefully. If anyone takes Xiao Meng's money, I will kill him when I come back.
The second thing is, during my absence, you need to take care of yourself and your people. You don’t have to fight for any credit for Honglian’s affairs. There is no credit there, but the dirty water cannot be thrown on you.”

……

In Suishenju, Li Banfeng went to the ninth room, gently stroked Lianxin and said, "Hua Jiuer, do you have a sister?"

Honglian said softly: "If you continue to be so unreasonable, I will..."

Lian Xin suddenly tightened, and Li Banfeng trembled: "Don't, don't pinch my fingers!"

Pulling out his fingers, Li Banfeng blew on them for a long time. Honglian said, "I don't have any sisters."

"I saw a copper lotus that looked exactly like you. She could summon the light of heaven and refine elixirs."

“Hehe,” Honglian sneered, “There are many alchemy furnaces in this world, and there are also many alchemy furnaces that look like lotus flowers, but there is only one real Xuansheng Honglian.”

Li Banfeng touched Lian Xin and asked, "So you are the only one who is real?"

"If you don't believe me, you might as well ask your evil wife. She knows me."

The phonograph never doubted Honglian's identity.

Hong Ying also knew Honglian, and Suishenju also knew Honglian. They never doubted it, which proved that the Honglian in Suishenju should be real.

What was the condition of the red lotus that Liao Zihui obtained?
Is that pavilion the sedan bearers’ residence?

Is this the red lotus that the sedan bearers used to make elixirs?

It seems that the sedan bearer did not lie. In terms of the function of alchemy, the copper lotus in his hand and the red lotus are extremely similar.

……

Xia Shumin arrived at Yesongqiao by special train.

Following Liao Zihui's instructions, Zheng Siyi did not go to the station to greet Xia Shumin, but chose to stay at the Customs Office.

Xia Shumin expressed his approval: "From this small matter, we can see Lao Zheng's sense of responsibility. The more critical the moment, the more he must stick to his post!"

Several newcomers in the Customs Office all felt that Lao Zheng's chance had come. Since the future general envoy admired him so much, they would probably be able to transfer Lao Zheng to the headquarters within two days.

But the old man knew in his heart that Zheng Siyi would have a hard time in the future. If he didn't come to pick him up, it meant that he didn't take Xia Shumin seriously. After the Honglian incident was over, Xia Shumin would definitely deal with him.

When they arrived at the Customs Hall, Zheng Siyi greeted Xia Shumin in the hall.

Xia Shumin checked Honglian's condition, asked about the injuries of the wounded with concern, expressed condolences to the families of the fallen, and immediately ordered Honglian to be transported to the station.

Xia Shumin mobilized hundreds of elites from the various customs offices. They first used special machinery to take the red lotus out, and then used different Taoist techniques to seal the red lotus in a glass container to prevent it from being exposed to sunlight.

During the handover process, Zheng Siyi ordered the entire process to be recorded on video to preserve evidence.

After Honglian was handed over, Xia Shumin ordered martial law along the way and set up layers of defense, and personally led people to bring Honglian onto the train.

In order to warn Zheng Siyi, Xia Shumin did not allow Zheng Siyi to see him off when he left, and asked him to continue to stay at his post.

Zheng Siyi was more than happy to do so. He said a few polite words and stayed in the customs hall without going out.

After Xia Shumin and his party got on the car and left, Zheng Siyi breathed a sigh of relief and told his men that they would have a holiday starting tomorrow, and everyone should take turns to rest for two weeks each.

……

Xia Shumin's special train did not stop along the way. It had five carriages. Honglian was placed in the third carriage, which was heavily guarded in front and behind. Xia Shumin was personally in the third carriage, staring at Honglian.

It was transported all the way to Yuezhou City and delivered to the experimental center.

Experts from all walks of life first spent a day conducting a series of observations on the red lotus through a glass container.

The next day, under strict protection, technicians operated the robotic arm, removed the many seals, and prepared to observe the entity of the Red Lotus.

After all, the details that can be observed through the glass are limited.

When the glass storage container was opened, everyone was stunned.

They found that Honglian was missing.

This is a magical process. As long as you open the door of the glass storage cabinet, the red lotus will disappear.

But as soon as the cabinet door was closed, Honglian appeared again.

What is the principle?
The experts held an emergency meeting and conducted in-depth research and discussion. After a careful inspection of the glass storage container, they found a mirror on the cabinet door. There was some magic on the mirror that projected the image of Honglian into the glass storage container.

In other words, there is no red lotus in this glass storage container at all.

When did the red lotus in the storage container disappear?

Xia Shumin was stunned. The only conclusion he could give was: "I don't know. I haven't touched it."

Yes, he hadn't touched it.

Ever since Honglian entered the glass container, no one has touched it. Even if it was sealed with a magic circle, no one dared to touch it. After all, everyone is afraid of daylight.

But how did Honglian get lost?

……

Director Du made a phone call: "Teacher, something happened to Honglian, she was left on the road..."

A questioning voice came from the other end of the phone: "What happened to Liao Zihui? How could such an important matter go wrong?"

Director Du reminded: "Teacher, Liao Zihui is not responsible for this matter..."

"Isn't he responsible for the escort? Isn't he responsible for Prozhou's affairs? For such an important mission, didn't Liao Zihui take the corresponding precautions in advance?"

"Teacher, Liao Zihui is in another state for treatment. During this period, Xia Shumin is also in charge of the overall work in Pro Province."

"What's wrong with curing the disease? Is this a reason? Anyway, this matter has nothing to do with him!"

Click! The phone was hung up angrily.

Director Du sighed and thought about how to explain the next things.

How could such a big red lotus disappear just like that?
……

At Yuezhou East Station, Chu Shaoqiang boarded Train No. 1160 carrying his briefcase.

He was carrying a briefcase, a very small and narrow briefcase that seemed to only be able to hold a few documents.

After entering his own carriage, Chu Shaoqiang sat quietly in his seat, holding his briefcase.

A day later, the train arrived at Haichiling. Chu Shaoqiang got off the train but did not leave the station. He transferred to Train No. 1165 to the Soda Kiln.

While waiting for the train in the waiting room, a man came up to Chu Shaoqiang, coughed twice and said, "Sir, can I borrow a light?"

Chu Shaoqiang took out a match and handed it to the man. The man lit a cigarette, took a puff, and gave the match back to Chu Shaoqiang. He said in a negotiating tone: "Leave this briefcase to me, and I'll leave your life to you. Is that okay?"

Chu Shaoqiang stared at the man for a moment and asked, "I haven't asked for your name yet?"

The man smiled and said, "My name is Ye Jianhuang. Anyone who likes to smoke is my friend."

The tip of the leaf is yellow, the master of smoke cultivation.

"It turns out to be Senior Ye. My apologies!" Chu Shaoqiang quickly handed the briefcase to Ye Jianhuang.

Ye Jianhuang took the briefcase, took a look, and saw Honglian was inside the bag.

How could such a big red lotus be stuffed into such a small briefcase?
This is the mystery of the technique.

Ye Jianhuang took a puff of his cigarette and said to Chu Shaoqiang, "Logically speaking, with my status, I shouldn't take things from a junior like you. Why don't you pick out a good thing from me as compensation?"

Chu Shaoqiang shook his head repeatedly: "I dare not, this is my sincere tribute to my predecessor."

"You're sensible." Ye Jianhuang smiled, picked up his briefcase and left the waiting hall.

Chu Shaoqiang sat in the waiting hall, motionless.

When Train No. 1165 arrived at the station, Chu Shaoqiang immediately got on the train, entered his own carriage, and continued to sit quietly in his seat.

Not long after, a new briefcase appeared in his hand.

……

Ye Jianhuang carried the briefcase and entered the new land of Haichiling. After walking for a while, he suddenly felt that the weight of the briefcase was not right.

He opened the briefcase and took another look at it, frowning.

Honglian is gone.

"Good boy, how dare you play this on me!" Ye Jianhuang threw the briefcase, and his body turned into a ball of smoke and disappeared.

……

When he arrived at the soda kiln, Chu Shaoqiang got off the train, walked quickly all the way, and entered an abandoned factory.

Shi Gongxing, the local god of the soda kiln, was repairing a bearing. Chu Shaoqiang walked up to him, took out two pairs of pliers from his briefcase, and presented them to Shi Gongxing respectfully.

"Master, I have something to ask of you."

Mason Star took the pliers, looked at them carefully for a while, nodded slightly and said, "Go ahead."

These two pairs of pliers are rare spiritual objects for craftsmen.

Chu Shaoqiang carried his briefcase and walked straight to the end of the factory.

When he came to the ladder, Chu Shaoqiang saw the pool below the ladder.

He was about to jump into the pool when he suddenly found that his left foot had turned into a ball of smoke.

Chu Shaoqiang was shocked, but saw Ye Jianhuang's figure appear before him.

"Who gave you the courage to play this trick on me?" Ye Jianhuang's eyebrows trembled, Chu Shaoqiang's right hand turned into smoke, and the briefcase fell to the ground.

"Master!" Chu Shaoqiang turned around and looked at Shigongxing.

Mason Star held the pliers in his hand and looked at the yellow tips of the leaves.

Ye Jianhuang glared and shouted at Shi Gongxing: "What are you looking at? You have disgraced your master! I deserve to kill you!"

Shi Gongxing lowered his head and continued repairing the bearing, not daring to take another look.

Ye Jianhuang opened the briefcase and looked at it carefully for a long time.

The red lotus was in the briefcase, and it was very real when seen from the outside.

But Ye Jianhuang was worried that Chu Shaoqiang had some tricks up his sleeve and could take the red lotus back.

"Young man, I originally wanted to spare your life, but you dared to play tricks on me, you are seeking death." Ye Jianhuang's eyebrows trembled again, and Chu Shaoqiang's remaining arm and leg all turned into smoke and dissipated into the air.

Smoke was also coming out of other parts of his body, but it did not dissipate immediately.

"You're quite resilient, kid." Ye Jianhuang smiled, took out a pipe, put it in his mouth and lit it.

He blew a puff of smoke at Chu Shaoqiang. Chu Shaoqiang's body shook and seemed to turn into smoke and dust, but after shaking for a while, the smoke gathered again.

Ye Jianhuang was startled and blew another puff of smoke at Chu Shaoqiang.

Chu Shaoqiang burped: "Snoring."

Soap bubbles spurted out of his mouth, first blocking the smoke and then spreading all over his body. After more than a minute, Chu Shaoqiang's limbs grew out under the cover of soap bubbles.

The hands are a bit short, only about twenty centimeters.

The legs are not long, about one foot.

Looking up along the thigh, the things are much smaller, but still complete.

Ye Jianhuang tightened his guard and asked, "What's your trick?"

Chu Shaoqiang was speechless and bubbles were coming out of his mouth.

Someone nearby said, "This is definitely not his method. How could he have such ability?"

"Then who could have such a..." Ye Jianhuang was stunned and turned to look at the man.

A middle-aged man squatted on the ground with his hands folded, and said to Ye Jianhuang: "Go on and fight him. I'll take a closer look to see who is doing this!"

Ye Jianhuang spit out the cigarette, took out the pipe, and looked at the middle-aged man nervously.

The middle-aged man laughed and said, "Go ahead, you continue to fight him, and I will do it after you two are done. Isn't that what you did back then?"

PS: It seems that they had a lot of grudges in the past.
