Chapter 2780 Seeking an Official
After Zhao Lingwu left, Lu Zhenhai was overjoyed. He thanked Xu Yi repeatedly and planned a banquet to entertain all the guests.
As soon as he finished speaking, most of the guests dispersed, except for five or six of them who were extraordinarily thick-skinned. They were looking forward to getting some benefits from Lu Zhenhai and did not leave.
Xu Yi was not interested in staying with the overly smooth Lu Zhenhai for a long time, so he directly asked Lu Zhenhai for the jade plaque.
Lu Zhenhai said, "Brother Yiling, what's the hurry? Come with me home, I'll treat you well, and then invite Mr. Song here. Can what brother Yiling ask for be achieved?"
Xu Yi smiled coldly, "It seems that Brother Lu really doesn't treat me as an outsider."
As he spoke, he waved his hand, and a bolt of thunder exploded directly at Lu Zhenhai's feet. After the lightning strike, the ground was scorched black. Lu Zhenhai seemed to have lost his soul. He stood on the spot and silently took out a jade plaque and threw it towards Xu Yi. , I dare not say any more nonsense.
Just now, when the thunder struck, he felt that his spiritual platform was blown to pieces. Thousands of thunders flew across the sky, and the meaning of destruction almost made him feel exhausted. No matter what, he didn't want to suffer a second time.
Thinking back to Xu Yi's decisiveness in killing Dong Xiaoshan and Ancestor Kumu, he suddenly realized that this old demon of Yiling was by no means a wasted name. If he was entangled with such a demon, there might be some good results.
When he thought of the golden talisman and jade tablet that Xu Yi had taken away, he felt heartbroken, but when he took another look at the spiritual spring full of spiritual power, he felt relieved again.
After receiving the jade medal, Xu Yi took off without further delay. Halfway through the journey, he suddenly saw a man bowing in thanks from afar. When he looked closely, it was Chen Fangge, the corpse sword.
When Xu Yi approached, Chen Fangge thanked him loudly for saving his life.
Xu Yiqi made a high-profile statement about scum like Ancestor Kumu, and everyone would kill them without saying thanks.
Chen Fangge said, "Ku Mu's crime deserves ten thousand deaths, but I am alive because of Brother Yiling. I don't thank Brother Yiling for killing Kumu, but I thank Brother Yiling for keeping me alive."
Xu Yi laughed, "That's the truth. Okay, I received Brother Chen's thanks, don't worry about it."
Chen Fangge said, "How can I say thank you for such a great kindness? At present, Chen really has nothing to repay. Brother Xu, please wait for a while, and Chen will be rewarded later." As he said this, he threw a wish-fulfilling bead, obviously to wish for it. Establish contact with Xu Yi.
Xu Yi took it, Chen Fangge clasped his fists again and turned around.
Watching Chen Fangge leave, Xu Yi secretly said, "This is a wonderful man."
At ten o'clock in the evening, it began to rain lightly. Xu Yi bought an oil-paper umbrella and walked into Liuye Alley in Hui'an City. The evening wind brought rain, and the purple wind chimes under the low eaves on both sides of the street made a melodious sound.
Xu Yi turned into a stew shop and ordered two kilograms of roasted knives, a plate of fried liver tips, and a large basin of oil and filthy meat. He ate comfortably with the browned meatloaf posted in the fireplace.
He has always believed that to enjoy delicious food, food is one aspect, and environment and mood are more important aspects.
Sitting alone in a street shop in the evening with a drizzle in the slanting wind, I already feel in the mood. As long as the food is decent, it is a delicious meal.
Facts have proved that this old store, whose signboard was almost completely changed by fireworks, does have its own specialty.
After a meal, Xu Yi was sweating, the spicy soup was watery, and he felt indescribably comfortable and comfortable.
After finishing his meal, Xu Yi got up and left the store, walked through several narrow alleys, and walked along a river embankment for more than ten miles, and stopped in front of a majestic mansion.
In front of the mansion, two hill-like stone lions guarded the gate. Above the two-foot-tall gold-riveted brass gate, the domineering words "Song Mansion", supplemented by formations, glowed brightly in the dusk night. Hui.
Xu Yicai stood in front of the door for a moment, then the small door on one side opened, and an old man in green robe came out, standing on the steps, asking Xu Yi what was going on.
The old man was an old man from the Song family. He had been a member of the family for many years. He could tell the identity of the visitor at a glance.
With Xu Yi's magnanimity, he would never be as rude as he was to low-level monks.
Xu Yi took out the jade plaque and said in a loud voice, "I was entrusted by the old friend of Song Xianjun to come to pay a visit. I also ask my father-in-law to report on his behalf."
When Xu Yi took out the jade plaque, Lao Yan's eyes widened. He came closer and looked at it for a moment, then invited Xu Yi in through the side door and asked Xu Yi to sit in the side room for a while. Reported.
After half a cup of tea, Lao Yan left and came back again. With a little more respect on his face, he invited Xu Yi into the backyard.
After walking around two courtyards and passing through a winding corridor, Xu Yi's open perception keenly captured several formations. He was slightly wary, but he was not surprised.
After all, with Song Youlong's identity, it is normal for him to have some forbidden formations in his house.
After Lao Yan sent Xu Yi to the backyard, he left. The main hall in the backyard was brightly lit, and a figure was standing in the hall, looking at Xu Yi from a distance.
With just a glance, Xu Yi knew that this must be Song Youlong, the current left-cao official of the Dongben Mansion. He could be fake, but the aura of a ghostly fairyland and the demeanor of being in power could not be faked.
Song Youlong invited Xu Yi into the hall. After the ceremony, the two parties sat down separately. Xu Yi explained some things about the situation. He took out a jade box and opened it. There were five incense beads in it. He took out the jade tablet and said Get what you want.
Xu Yi is very understanding. Although there is a jade token, according to the agreement, Song Youlong must help him.
But an agreement is an agreement. It has been all these years. It is not surprising that Song Youlong does not recognize this jade plaque. Therefore, he prepared a generous gift that took into account both favor and interests. In this way, the possibility of Song Youlong's refusal was unlikely.
The clinker Song Youlong ignored the jade box containing five incense beads, but held the jade tablet in his palm, rubbed it carefully, looked far away, recalled the friendship with the ancestors of the Lu family in the past, and said with emotion , "Since you came with the jade token, no matter whether this matter can be solved or not, I will never let you down."
Xu Yi stood up and saluted, "Well, thank you very much Song Xianjun. The great kindness will be repaid one day."
Song Youlong said with a smile on his face, "I dare you to ask fellow Taoist Xu if you really mean what he said."
"Of course it's true."
Xu Yi said decisively, but his heart was secretly beating.
Song Youlong's words obviously did not conform to the routine of social circles.
Although his words were true, they were mostly polite. If Song Youlong really comes to him for something in the future, Xu Yi will naturally not refuse after thinking about what happened today.
But Song Youlong stressed that the matter was true or false, and if he was asked to express his position for a second time, the problem would become serious, and he would probably have to shed a heavy burden.
As expected, Song Youlong said, "I have heard some legends about Xu Daoyou. In the Jiangbei area, it is said that Brother Xu has a four-color seal, which is very miraculous. Song has no hobbies in his life, but he likes to search for rare things. Don’t expect to possess it, just play with it and it will bring you great comfort in your life.”
