The black slave glanced nervously at the roast chicken. People who live by licking blood from the blade of a knife usually have keen intuition. His intuition told him that the young man in front of him was very dangerous. The whole body exuded bloodthirsty desire.

There is no doubt that this kid just wanted to kill him.

He took two steps back without leaving a trace. Surrounded by thugs, the black slave became more courageous again. The backstage of Baiyun Villa was not the government, but the Baiyun Temple not far away.

In the Yuan Dynasty BC, with the special approval of Genghis Khan, Qiu Chuji, a real person from Changchun, was in charge of Taoism all over the world. It was known as the Quanzhen Longmen Sect!

From then on, a group of old Taoists took root and sprouted here. Besides seeking immortality, they also refined elixirs.

Except for a few emperors such as Jiajing and Wanli who were keen on seeking immortality, there were very few emperors who put aside worldly power and beauty to practice such a thing.

However, elixirs are something that people like to hear about. After all, everyone has the desire to borrow another five hundred years from heaven. So the royal family members of the Ming Dynasty, as well as the powerful cabinet scholars and ministers, all have contacts with Baiyunguan, and the purpose is to

Live a few more years and enjoy the prosperity of the world.

Because of this, Baiyun Villa next to Baiyun Temple has become a place that no one dares to take care of. Although there are often some extortion incidents happening there, as long as no one is killed, everyone just turns a blind eye and passes by.

If you can't get along with Baiyun Guan, God knows one day these old Taoists will see your superior and secretly take some bad medicine. If you want to say something more, it's just because God won't approve your immortality report. Then this official deserves it.

But it’s painful!

Like what happened today, black slaves did it not once or twice. There is no blind official who comes here to deliver justice.

"Let this little brother do the hard work." Perhaps he felt that Ai Husheng was as fair-skinned as a woman, like a pampered rich man. The black slave did not agree to Li Xiao's proposal, but looked at Li Hu. He felt

, this kid Li Hu is just a shameless servant at best.

"He...! Okay!" Li Xiao shook his head, this means that there is a way to heaven but you don't take it, and there is no door to hell and you just break in.

"You go back and get the money to redeem your brother, but don't take the money and run away halfway. Your brother's life depends on you." Li Xiao looked at Li Hu and smiled.

"Humph!" Li Hu gouged out the black slave and went to change his clothes angrily.

Li Xiao lay on the low couch again, enjoying the performance of the actors on the stage while continuing to receive the beauty's caress.

I have to say that this Baiyun Villa is really good, with a large courtyard with five entrances. The house is covered with exquisite Persian carpets, and various celebrity calligraphy and paintings are hung on the walls. Some hot spring water is introduced into the small pond, and it is foggy all day long.

.Perhaps because of the addition of cold water, there are many koi released in the pond.

It is said that looking at flowers and water in the mist is like looking at the moon. Looking at koi under this mist also has an indescribable hazy beauty.

It can be seen that Baiyunguan has really invested in this villa. The buildings are all cornices, brackets, carved beams and painted buildings. The corridors are painted with various story murals, and the pond is also full of strange rocks. They are all Taihu stones and stones bought from the south at high prices.

Whether they are valuable or not is another matter. Just getting these stones from Taihu Lake would cost a huge amount of money in freight.

When the black slave saw that Li Xiao was not making any noise, he thought that Li Xiao had given up. The generous black slave decided to let the boy go as long as he brought the money. There were always people breaking their legs at the entrance of the villa, and it didn't seem too bad.

suitable.

Li Xiao was lying in the warm hot spring pool. The March day in the capital was still a bit cold. Taking a dip in this hot spring pool after freezing his bones all winter, he felt indescribably comfortable. All the bones in his body seemed to be scattered, and his head

With a towel on my head, my eyelids started to fight.

The roasted chicken stood on the edge of the pool like a nail. Ai Husheng sat on the edge of the pool vigilantly in his robe, looking at the sturdy men not far away. The roasted chicken was too thin, and Ai Husheng was not sure he would

He won't be a match for those big men.

Li Xiao was awakened by the screams of women, the yells of men, and the sound of broken porcelain. Taking off the towel on his head, Man Gui rushed in on a horse. People were pouring in behind him.

The soldiers and muskets were all equipped with bayonets, and they looked scary when they were shining brightly.

There were people running around everywhere, and the big men who looked fierce just now were caught by the soldiers, and Huanghuali's chair was kicked to pieces by the soldiers. They picked up the stool legs and used them as sticks, and whipped those who didn't have any brains.

.

"Don't disturb the guests. There is a military law enforcement agency that molests women." Li Xiao took the robe handed over by Ai Husheng. The maid named Huannu served Li Xiao to get dressed with trembling hands. The dignified commander-in-chief faced him naked.

After all, his subordinates are not like that.

"Nuo!" A battalion commander said "Nuo" and immediately conveyed Li Xiao's order to his subordinates.

"Brother Xiao, are you okay? No matter how much I take a shower, I can still be held captive." Man Gui looked Li Xiao up and down, and there seemed to be some gloating on his face.

"Yes! The crime of secretly detaining Ming's general soldiers can be placed on them. Let the brothers seal this place and not unblock it without me." Li Xiao said a few words angrily and went to the front.

I was changing my clothes and getting ready to leave. It was indeed a bit embarrassing to tell this matter.

The black slave was going crazy with fear. When a group of soldiers rushed into the front yard, he took advantage of the chaos and escaped.

I really didn’t expect that the Liao soldiers were so courageous. This is the capital city. If you say you want to rush in with people, then just rush in. It’s scary to think about those bright bayonets, but the two scoundrels just cursed and were stabbed with bayonets.

His brother, San Leizi, who was running slower, was hit on the head by the butt of a gun. He bled a lot while lying on the ground.

He couldn't bear such a thing happening. He quickly went to Baiyun Temple to report the news and asked Zhenren Zhang to find people from the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion to catch these troublemaking Liao soldiers.

I hurried into Baiyun Temple and saw Taoist priests gathering in the main hall. The real person Zhang Daoxuan was sitting on a futon, preaching Taoism to the disciples below.

The black slave was just a slave raised by Baiyun Temple, and he didn't dare to disturb Master Zhang's Dharma gathering. But the matter had reached this point, and he couldn't wait any longer. He jumped like a dog, but gritted his teeth and found Daoxuan, the waiter.

The real little Taoist boy told me about Baiyun Temple, and repeatedly said that the matter was urgent, so I asked you to pass it on.

Here in Baiyun Villa, the soldiers drove away all the guests. Among the servants, anyone who looked big and round was beaten. They were polite to the maids and locked them up in two rooms. Guards were posted at the door.

Guarding the soldiers, the soldiers looked at the beautiful maid with envy, but they were just envy. No one dared to rush into the house and risk their heads.

The entire Baiyun Villa was sealed off, and there were soldiers standing guard at the door with guns and bayonets attached. Mortars were even set up in the yard, with the black muzzles pointing toward the sky. No one doubted the lethality of this thing.

To Li Xiao's expectation, nothing happened on the first night. As a result, Li Xiao was a little confused as to what was going on. Could it be said that the boss behind Baiyun Villa just let it go?

Don’t we need big industries?

How could Baiyun Temple not value Baiyun Villa? As for abandoning Baiyun Villa, that is even more impossible.

Practice!

The emphasis is on Tao, Dharma, Earth, Love and Wealth. Tao is the way to cultivate immortality, Dharma is the way to cultivate immortality. Earth refers to the place of cultivation, couple...! Taoist men also need a confidante, for example: Lu Dongbin and He

The story of Fairy Girl is widely circulated.

Wealth: refers to money.

Don't underestimate Taoism. There are spiritual treasures from heaven and earth, thousand-year-old ginseng, ten-thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, and dinosaurs from the Ice Age. As long as the Taoist masters think it is helpful to Taoism, they will mobilize their disciples to get it. If they can't get it, they will naturally have to buy it with money.

.

Since materials are rare, they usually cost a lot of money. There are more than a hundred Taoist priests in Baiyun Temple, and the annual expenses are huge. Without some side business, I can't get by.

Early the next morning, officers from Shuntian Prefecture came to the gate of Baiyun Villa. Before they could negotiate, they saw soldiers carrying muskets and bayonets, and the officers from Shuntian Prefecture turned and left.

Are you kidding me? How dare you not recognize these guys? When Gao Panlong was the Yin of Shuntian Prefecture, these guys were the ones who bombed the Shuntian Prefecture Yamen. They were the ones who got the best of them, so they came to trouble these people.

"Are they Li Xiao's soldiers?" After hearing the report from his subordinates, Shuntian Prefecture Yin Sun Ruyou had one head and two heads.

At that time, he and Ruan Dacheng were responsible for receiving Li Xiao, but because Shuntian Mansion arrested Li Hu, Li Xiao blew up the Shuntian Mansion prison and snatched Li Hu out. What happened two years ago seemed to be happening before our eyes.

Thinking of the great changes that night, Sun Ruyou's calf muscles twisted.

It is not easy for me to be the governor of Shuntian. Every day I walk on thin ice, trying to maintain peace on the ground in the capital. Unexpectedly, there will be such a big mess today. Those bull-nosed people in Baiyunguan want to offend no one, but they want to offend Li Xiao, the god of plague.

.

"Daozhang Zhang, this matter is really difficult for me. This matter is beyond my control." I came to Baiyunguan in person and explained to Master Daoxuan. This guy here can't afford to offend him. Not only does he often come in and out of the capital, all the adults

I heard that even the palace can be entered. I am a fourth-grade official, but I am not valuable in the eyes of others.

This is what makes it difficult for the Shuntian governor in the capital. The gods in the sky often fight, and the governor on the ground suffers.

He was not good in his previous life, and he was the county magistrate in this life. He did evil in his previous life, and the county magistrate was attached to Kuo. He was full of evil, and he was attached to the provincial capital. He must have committed so many evils in his previous life to get involved in the errand of the Yin of Shuntian Prefecture in this life.

"Oh! Who are those people? Even Fu Yin can't do anything about them?" Master Daoxuan was stunned after hearing this. He didn't expect that the dignified Fu Yin of Shuntian, a senior official of the fourth rank of the Ming Dynasty, was in charge of the security of the capital and had the order of thousands of officers.

Tianfu Yin actually has no way to deal with these rebels.

"Did you know that the gate of Shuntian Mansion was bombed two years ago?"

"I've heard a little bit about it. Could it be that...!"

"Yes, it was these Liaodong soldiers who did it. Their commander-in-chief is called Li Xiao. Not only is he a guest who is nine thousand years old, but he can also speak in front of Long Live. They just defeated the Tatars in Liaodong, and now they are so arrogant.

It's incredible. They...! I can't do anything about it. I think you should find a solution for Jiu Qian Sui, maybe he will give Jiu Qian Sui some face."

Sun Ruyou wanted to take it out quickly and take the matter to Wei Zhongxian in one go. No matter how arrogant Li Xiao was, he would still give Wei Zhongxian some face. In fact, Sun Ruyou didn't push Daoxuan to the emperor, he was already leaving it to the old Taoist.

Save face.

"...!" Daoxuan was speechless as he stroked his beard.

Looking for the 9,000-year-old Wei Zhongxian? If it were so easy to ask for, everyone would ask for it.

If you want to ask this nine-thousand-year-old man to do something, you have to pay a price. Now Wei Zhongxian is not the Li Jinzhong of a few years ago. His power is getting bigger and bigger, and his appetite is naturally getting bigger. In the past, you could ask him for a few thousand taels of silver.

Work. Now you don't have ten thousand taels of silver, and you can't even get in.

Thinking about Wei Zhongxian's appetite, Dao Xuan's body ached for a while. What Dao Xuan wanted most now was to go out and kick to death the black slaves who were causing trouble.

"Master Sun, I have no intention of forcing you to force General Li. However, it is not a problem for them to occupy this villa like this. Do you think you can be a middleman to make peace with us?"

If you want to offend me, if you have any requests, please ask Commander-in-Chief Li to put forward your request. If you are within your ability, Pindao will definitely agree." This time, it is impossible without bleeding, and Master Daoxuan wants to find out Li Xiao's background.

If Li Xiao's appetite is not big, it can satisfy Li Xiao's conditions. If Li Xiao has a big appetite, then go to Wei Zhongxian. Anyway, if you have to make preparations for both, it is best to get a low-cost one.

"Uh...!" Sun Ruyou muttered without saying anything.

Master Daoxuan casually took out a small blue cloth bag as big as a fist from the drawer, handed it to Sun Ruyou and said, "It's a small thing, but it's not respectful."

Sun Ruyou took it doubtfully and felt that although the cloth bag was small, it was heavy to hold. When he opened it, his eyes immediately went straight. He saw that the inside of the cloth bag was filled with golden light, and there was actually a bag of gold sand inside. He weighed it with his hands.

There are at least a dozen taels.

"How embarrassing!" Sun Ruyou refused, but put the small bag of gold sand into his arms.

"Thank you, sir!" Master Daoxuan smiled and saw off the guests. The day Baiyun Villa resumes business earlier, the more money it will make for the day. This small bag of gold sand can be earned back in no time.

"How dare you refuse to do something within my official duties. Please wait for the message from me, I have some connections with that Li Xiao. I think he might be able to give me this face." Sun Ruyou bowed his hand and left Baiyun.

View.

Baiyun Temple is not far from Baiyun Villa, only two miles away. The bearer walked very fast and soon carried Sun Ruyou to the entrance of Baiyun Villa.

"Stop! Who is that?" As soon as he reached the door, there were soldiers in yellow-green military uniforms blocking him.
