You have mastered the art of thunder and you tell me that it is in a strange world?

Chapter 243 No one will know my plan!

The young men from the noble families would set off seven days later than General Tiandao.

They don't have the "extortion" means that General Tiandao has, so naturally they have to enjoy the banquet to the fullest.

After seven days of eating and drinking, it was finally time to leave.

Just as the second young master's servants were helping him pack his luggage, Yulu hermit came to visit the second young master:

"Second Young Master, I have some things to do in Qingzhou, which will probably take around the 7th to 15th day. After I finish these things, I will come to you to see if it's okay."

The second young master heard this and said in surprise:
"Layman, if you have any troubles, just tell me directly. I have a few capable people under my command who can lend them to you to help you settle the matter. Can't we go together?"

"Hey, Master, this is my own private matter, how can I trouble you?"

The hermit of Yulu had a fake smile on his face.

He was planning to put the blame on the Second Young Master, so how could he allow the Second Young Master to send people to follow him!
Could it be that he was going to throw his plan in front of this young master and tell him:

"Master! I want to harm a True Immortal-level expert. Please take the blame for me!"

The second young master of the Lu family could also roughly see that there was something wrong in the mind of Yulu Monk, so he rolled his eyes and said with a smile:

"I won't wait for you. When you are done with your work, you can go to Xuzhou to find me."

"Thank you for your understanding, young master. Who knows? By the time I finish my work here, you may have already defeated those evil bandits in Xuzhou! I will go there then, and maybe I will only be able to attend your celebration banquet." The monk said with a smile.

"It's not that easy. Those low-class people in Xuzhou have been able to hold out for so long, so they must have some magic in their hands. At that time, we will have to ask the layman for help and use the superior magical powers left by the capital. Only in this way can it work."

The two of them exchanged several polite words and flattered each other before Mr. Yulu took his leave.

After he walked away, the second young master of the Lu family's face suddenly turned gloomy.

"This old guy has something on his mind!"

The young master stood up, stroking his chin, and paced on the spot.

As the second young master of a wealthy family, he may not have strong personal abilities, but he is a first-rate observer of people's expressions. He can tell at a glance what a layman wants to say or not.

Follow me here and leave me behind.

something wrong.

There's a big problem!

If you were hanging around among the nobility and didn't have a sense of vigilance, you would have been eaten to the bone!

The second young master doesn't intend to just let the Yulu hermit make trouble behind his back and put the blame on himself!

With a light cough, a figure immediately emerged from the shadow of the second young master, blurry and looming.

"Master."

"Go and follow the layman to protect his safety. If there is anything, tell me directly."

"Take orders."

The shadow immediately dived into the shadow of the house and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The second young master of the Lu family sneered.

Old lay Buddhist, old lay Buddhist, let me see what you are doing?
But please don't try to trick me in secret!
After the servants helped the second young master pack his things, he set off with the large group and went directly to Xuzhou.

It took another three days on the road, but we finally arrived.

The camp has also made a lot of preparations to welcome these important figures from Kyoto.

They specially selected the courtyards of those once wealthy families in the empty city of Changjun, and brought fine bedding from Xuzhou.

When you go in to check it out, you can't even tell whether this is a front-line battlefield or a small field courtyard for tourist resorts.

The second young master was also quite satisfied with this.

He rested directly at home and waited for another whole day before the Thousand Mile Communication Incense of the Second Young Master of the Lu Family was finally lit.

The shadow detective sent him a message:

"Master Yulu went to Gray Mountain in Qingzhou and seemed to be setting up a large formation."

Seeing this news, the second young master of the Lu family frowned tightly:
"Gray Mountain? What kind of barren mountain is that? What could be on it?"

He thought for a long time, but really had no idea.

but……

I can’t think of it myself, but the people in the library should know something.

It just so happened that the second young master of the Lu family knew a person in the library named Yan Wangsheng.

That's an old bookstore owner.

If he did, he would definitely know something.

……

Yan Wangsheng, who had just finished class, felt a stick of incense in his arms getting hot, so he took out a small notebook for recording names and looked it up.

"The second young master of the Fanyang Lu family? Why did he suddenly come to see me?"

Although he didn't know what the other party's plan was, Yan Wangsheng still found the corresponding communication incense and contacted the second young master.

"But Second Young Master Lu?"

"Exactly."

"What a rare visitor! I wonder what the Second Young Master wants to talk to me about today?"

"I have some questions for Mr. Yan." The second young master paused before continuing:
"I wonder if Mr. Yan knows about Qingzhou Huishan?"

When Yan Wangsheng heard this name, his expression instantly turned serious:
"Second Young Master, why are you suddenly asking about this place?" "It's like this."

The second young master of the Lu family briefly talked about what happened when he and Master Yulu came out. Listening to his description, Yan Wangsheng couldn't help but be slightly surprised.

I haven’t seen that old ghost Yulu these two days. I didn’t expect that he actually ran to Qingzhou!

He must have ulterior motives!
"Yes. This is what my spy found out, so it must be correct." On the other side of the communication incense, the second young master of the Lu family's voice was a little dazed.

The distance is a bit far, so I'm afraid this call won't last too long.

"My spies said that Monk Yulu went to the foot of the mountain and set up a large formation. He has been running all over the mountain for the past two days. I don't know what he did specifically. Mr. Yan, do you have any clues?"

clue?

Of course!

The old ghost either wanted to go to Huishan Mountain to look for things left behind by the capital, or he simply wanted to use Huishan Mountain to set up some large formation.

No matter which one it is, it points directly to Taoist Zuo.

It seems that the group of rats hiding in Kyoto can't hold back anymore.

Yan Wangsheng sneered in his heart.

"Mr. Yan?" After not getting a response for a long time, the second young master of the Lu family said anxiously, "If you know anything, please tell me directly."

Yan Wangsheng thought for a few seconds.

Of course, he couldn't tell everything to the second young master of the aristocratic family.

This person's stance is different from mine, and he is the type who will be liquidated in the future.

but……

Who knows, I might be able to use him to trick that Yulu hermit.

He lowered his voice and said calmly:

"Master Yulu may be using the mountain to exploit your fortune. From what I know, that gray mountain is a little special. There are mysteries of heaven and earth on it. Second Young Master, you'd better be more careful. He may use this magic to target you!"

"Hiss." The second young master of the Lu family took a breath of cold air.

There was a long silence.

"Thank you, Mr. Yan. I will look into this matter carefully."

After saying this, the second young master of the Lu family cut off the communication incense.

Yan Wangsheng didn't care too much.

It was just a casual move on his part, and it remains to be seen whether it could damage the relationship between the two people.

The most important thing now is to tell Zuo Chen about this matter as soon as possible, so as to prevent that Yulu hermit from causing any disaster and harming Taoist Zuo.

He quickly took out the private incense he was carrying and lit it.

In a hazy state, Yan Wangsheng developed a sense of connection.

He contacted Zuo Chen.

……

In Qingzhou, at the foot of Huishan Mountain.

Huishan covers a large area and is a major scenic spot besides the four lakes of Qingzhou. Thirty or forty years ago, when the world was not in chaos, many talented men and beautiful women were willing to travel here to see the beautiful scenery of Qingzhou.

Mr. Yulu also looked up at the mountain in front of him.

It was now late in the day, the sun was about to set, the moon was high in the sky, and the surroundings were not bright. In this dim light, the Gray Mountain was a huge shadow standing in the darkness, staring down at the uninvited guest who had broken into this territory.

Even a master of the library like Yulu Jushi felt his heart skip a beat when he saw the black mountain in front of him.

He could feel a strong sense of fear.

It is the feeling of oppression when people face an unstoppable giant.

It is a sense of awe in the face of the power of nature.

After taking his eyes off the mountains in front of him, Mr. Yulu's fear was relieved a lot.

He turned his head to glance at the middle-aged man following him. He was his trusted subordinate and a master of magic in the underworld, named Zhao Laosan.

This man was of low status and was originally the one that Master Yulu looked down upon the most. However, twenty years ago, when the ghost disaster struck Kyoto, Master Yulu was trapped in a town and unable to escape. It was then that Zhao Laosan used his own embroidered cloth to save Master Yulu's life.

From then on, Yulu Jushi kept Zhao Laosan by his side, gave him a lot of silver every year and let him work for him. Over time, Zhao Laosan became his trusted veteran, and he still does today.

The third brother was also loyal and devoted. He took the money to do things and established himself in the capital. Usually, he pretended to be a coachman for Yulu Monk. In fact, there were many chores that were done by Zhao the third brother.

Previously, Master Yulu had a concubine who did not know the truth and offended Zhao Laosan. Zhao Laosan did not say anything, but Master Yulu directly cooked the concubine into a peach meat platter the next day, mainly in order to prevent his old subordinate from holding a grudge.

"Third brother, how is the formation arrangement going?"

"Replying to the layman, the formation design is very complicated. I am worried that my men will make mistakes and waste precious materials. So I will ask them to slowly make progress. At the current speed, it will probably take at least ten days to complete the formation."

After hearing this, Yulu Hermit did not get angry, but just nodded and said:

"You did the right thing. The materials given by the noble are rare in the world today. It would be troublesome if they were wasted."

After a pause, Yulu Hermit stroked his beard:

"As for the time, don't worry. No one knows where we are now. We are very safe!"

His tone was just right.
