"Gu Xiaoyou, when you came out of Lu's old house, you must have a lot of questions in your heart," Luo Chuan, the head of the Exorcist Department, paused for a moment and continued in an amiable tone, "Now, you can ask me. I will answer whatever is convenient for you."
Gu Xu pondered for a moment and asked: "Master Chief, you should have known that Tang Hui did not die fifteen years ago; Are you staying in Lu’s house all the time?”
Gu Xu’s question was very straightforward.
After all, Luo Sishou, as a saint who is proficient in the art of deducing heavenly secrets, is known as "knowing everything about the world"; and Chu Fengge also said that Luo Sishou has been using the "divine power" in them to "Machine Token" pays attention to the situation in the Lu family's haunted house.
Everything Gu Xu saw and heard in Lu Zhai could hardly be hidden from Luo Sishou's eyes.
It is undoubtedly a very stupid behavior to be secretive in front of the chief executive.
Luochuan nodded and said: "I do know. And the emperor also knows about this matter."
Hearing this, Gu Xu couldn't help but narrowed his eyes slightly.
Last night, when the battle was at its most intense, the "Imperial Envoy Token" carried by Tang Hui suddenly shattered, causing Tang Hui's mentality to collapse and give up resistance - if not for this, Gu Xu would not have been able to do so easily. Defeat an enemy three realms higher than yourself.
At that time, Gu Xu had already secretly guessed that Tang Hui's death must be related to Emperor Daqi.
Luochuan's words confirmed his guess.
"So..."
"Gu Xiaoyou, you have to understand that Tang Hui was once a ferocious and cunning dog. He did many things for the emperor that were inconvenient for him to do himself. Luo Chuan smiled and interrupted what Gu Xu was about to say, "But now, the emperor has no need for this dog - even the existence of this dog will bring him a lot of trouble." .
“So, he wants to use your help to get rid of Tang Hui. ”
Gu Xu was silent.
What Luo Chuan said did not exceed his expectations.
What surprised Gu Xu , in fact, it was Luo Chuan's attitude.
He clearly felt that the chief minister did not seem to have the respect that a minister should have for the Emperor of Qi - on the contrary, he took the emperor's inconveniences to others. He said it without any scruples.
“But, Gu Xiaoyou, I have to remind you something solemnly,” Luo Chuan continued when he saw that Gu Xu didn’t say anything, “You are out there. In front of others, never mention that you met Tang Hui in the haunted house - just say that you used the 'Jinghong Pen' to resolve the resentful souls in the Lu family's haunted house. ”
“I understand. "Gu Xu nodded in agreement.
He knew why Luo Sishou made such a request -
On the one hand, Emperor Daqi wanted to leave a good reputation for Tang Hui. Avoid being considered by the world as "all the birds are hidden, the rabbits are dead and the dogs are cooked", so that no one dares to be his dog again in the future;
On the other hand, the fact that "Tang Hui has survived to this day" will undoubtedly make everyone suspect that the case of Lu's haunted house is not a simple haunting case, but has another hidden secret.
The emperor obviously didn't want to let those old things get into trouble.
Afterwards, Gu Xu pondered for a few seconds and asked a question that he had always been very worried about: "So, Mr. Chief Secretary, will the emperor suspect that during the execution of this task, I learned Something you shouldn't know?"
"Don't worry," Luo Chuan replied with a smile, "I will use the secret technique to guarantee you. You are just following orders and killing Tang Hui is just for yourself. Bao, knows nothing about the old days.
“Although the emperor’s cultivation level is higher than mine, his attainments in the art of heaven are far inferior to mine. I can keep you safe and sound. "
Gu Xu took a deep breath.
Luo Chuan's words were so shocking that he could almost be regarded as "bullying the emperor".
He is now It's unclear what Luo Chuan's attitude is towards Emperor Da Qi - is there an unknown conflict between them?
But with Gu Xu's current strength? and status, he cannot get involved in disputes at that level for the time being.
What he can do now is to hold on to the thigh of the chief executive and strive to obtain more resources as soon as possible. Cultivation to the seventh level
…………
After thinking for a moment, Gu Xu asked another question that he had been curious about for a long time: "Why does the Chief Chief value me so much? ? ”
At this moment, Gu Xu thought of many things: for example, when he participated in the promotion assessment, Luo Sishou sent his confidant Chu Fengge to the remote Yishui County; for example, He asked himself by name to solve the case of the Lu family's haunted house, giving himself the opportunity to obtain the "Jinghong Pen", and also asked the famous genius Chu Fengge of the Da Qi Dynasty to be his bodyguard; for another example, in order to prevent the emperor from attacking He became suspicious and did not hesitate to use "Heaven's Secret Technique" to deceive the emperor...
Even if he was a spiritual genius with a rare third-level vision, he would not be able to do this!
< p>Luo Sishou smiled lightly and replied: "It's very simple. Because your cultivation potential is actually far beyond the third level. Of course, special care must be given to a cultivation genius like you who is rare to see in a century. "" Far more than the third grade? "Gu Xu frowned slightly.
He clearly remembered that when he was conducting the qualification test at the Yishui Exorcist Department Yamen, the "Tianyan Stone" showed the third-grade vision "The Light of the Blazing Sun" , and was certified by Chu Fengge's two followers.
"Gu Xiaoyou, you only know that the 'Heavenly Stone' shined brightly on the day you took the assessment," Luo Chuan said, "But. You don't know that when Chu Fengge's followers moved the 'Tianyan Stone' back, the 'Tianyan Stone' broke into pieces and can no longer be used in the future. ”
“Split into pieces?” Why? ”
“Because of the ‘Tian Yan Stone’ testA practitioner's qualifications rely on its internal magic circle that can deduce heavenly secrets," Luo Chuan explained, "However, your cultivation potential has exceeded the upper limit of what it can deduce. Therefore, its magic circle collapsed, and the 'Heavenly Stone' was also damaged. ”
“That’s it. "Gu Xu murmured.
Then he raised his head and asked Luo Chuan solemnly: "Master Chief, how many grades do I have in terms of my true cultivation potential? "
"The only thing that can cause the collapse of the 'Heavenly Stone' formation is the first-grade qualification that only exists in legends. "Luo Sishou replied in a calm tone.
"Yipin..." Gu Xu sighed silently in his heart, "It turns out that the talent I gained with my lifespan is not so bad after all..."
p>Unconsciously, his eyes gradually became brighter.
If what Luo Chuan said is true, then he reached the seventh realm before he was thirty. The possibility will no longer be as slim as before.
He was suddenly full of hope for the future.
