After solving all the troubles, Hong Di walked out of the tea room and gently closed the Hong Di turned around, he saw the person who had called him in at the beginning, his butler, Uncle Liu, standing outside the door waiting for him.
He should have heard everything that was happening outside the door, but he didn't seem to care and just looked normal.
As gentle and quiet as usual.
"Uncle Liu," Hong Di said apologetically, pointing to the door, "I'm sorry for making the house dirty."
"It doesn't matter."
Uncle Liu's expression was calm, "Houses are meant to be dirty, and they are meant to be cleaned."
After a pause, he asked cautiously, "Is there anything I can help you with?"
"You've helped me enough."
Hong Di patted his shoulder and said gratefully: "What happens next is my own business, and I have to handle it myself."
"Here he is after all."
Uncle Liu sighed, "I thought everything was perfect."
"There is no such thing as a perfect plan in this world, Uncle Liu. We can only do our best and leave the rest to fate."
Hong Di put his hands in the basin at the door and washed them.
"I have to leave Gaotan for a while."
Uncle Liu didn't ask where he was going, but just asked, "How long will it take you to come back?"
"do not know."
Hong Di said softly: "Maybe the place I'm going to is very far, or maybe it's very close, so I don't know when I can get there and come back."
"Understood, sir."
Uncle Liu took a step back, straightened his clothes, lowered his head and said solemnly: "During this period, I will take care of you at home, don't worry."
"I always trust you."
"Then I'll pack your luggage for you."
"Thanks a lot."
Hong Di nodded, "Just bring a few changes of clothes. As for the rest, I probably won't need them."
"clear."
Uncle Liu turned and left.
Hong Di was still standing there at this time, looking at the water stains on the ground, lost in thought.
Although this time, the visitors from the Imperial Observatory were easily dealt with.
But in fact, that was because the Imperial Observatory did not take him, or Hong Shan, seriously, so they only sent out two astronomers instead of asking them to bring a large number of palace masters to encircle and suppress him.
Of course he was lucky, but there will never be such luck again.
Of course, he could defeat the people sent by the Imperial Observatory again and again, but the imperial court could fail countless times, but if he failed once, he would be shattered.
It is completely impossible to fight against that huge, ancient empire alone, even if he knows the art of Qimen Dunjia.
The only problem now is where to go. I am like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth, going to Kyushu.
Or should I make plans somewhere else, such as San Francisco or Philadelphia?
A great storm against him had been brewing, was about to come, and broke out.
While he was thinking about where to go, Uncle Liu had already packed his luggage, put it in a suitcase and put it away.
"I have sent for a cab, sir."
"Thank you."
Hong Di knew it was time for him to leave, so he picked up his suitcase and walked out without looking back.
Behind him, Liu Shuru stood as usual, waiting for the descendant of the Taoist priest of Laoshan to return here one day.
……
When Yin Xiu and Luo Wei got on the boat, the boatman was dozing off while leaning on the oars.
Awakened by a slight shaking, he rubbed his sleepy eyes and hurriedly greeted the two guests.
"Where are you two going?"
Yin Xiu pointed to a ship ahead that was leaving the harbor and said, "Go to that ship."
The boatman glanced at the ship that was rapidly shrinking in his sight, and wondered whether he was still sleepy or they were wrong.
"I?"
He pointed at himself and then at the boat, "Is this little broken boat I rowed with my hands supposed to chase that steamship?"
"Yes."
Yoon Soo nodded, "I did ask you to chase it, so start now if you're ready."
"but……"
The boatman still felt incredible.
He was not a sailor who crossed the Atlantic Ocean, nor was he a professional rower on the Missouri River.
This broken boat is only used for ferrying around here. If we go out from here, have a cup of coffee on the other side and come back, that's enough. If we really leave the port, I'm afraid it will fall apart in a short while.
The boatman murmured, "This is really an impossible request. Unless God shows his power or a miracle occurs, like Moses waved his staff and split the Red Sea in two, there is no way we can catch up."
"Are you a Catholic?" Yin Xiu suddenly asked.
The boatman nodded. "It has always been like this, for generations."
"You are a very pious person. We are also religious, but our leader has great power. He can make all the impossible things in the world possible, making miracles appear in despair and happiness emerge in sadness.
Let me tell you this, our leader is omnipotent. Everyone in the world, whether adults or children, men or women, rich or poor, respects him, loves him, and is loyal to him from the bottom of their hearts. "
The boatman was stunned when he heard this. He simply couldn't believe that such a thing existed in the world. Even if Jesus Christ was so great, there were still pagans in West Asia who did not believe in Him.
"Excuse me, who is your leader?"
"Manny!"
Yin Xiu snapped his fingers, and a golden coin spun and fell into the boatman's pocket.
The boatman took it out, looked at it, took a bite with his teeth, and finally confirmed that it was a gold coin.
"The gold coins issued by the Dunling Bank can be exchanged for a year's living expenses anywhere. How about this? Is this a miracle?"
"Miracle, a huge miracle!"
The boatman wiped the gold coin again and again with his sleeve and put it carefully into his pocket.
Then he spat twice into his palm.
"Please sit down, both of you. To be honest, I was a rowing champion when I was young!"
Luo Wei just thought it was a casual remark and didn't take it to heart, he just responded to him casually.
"Just do your best. The most important thing is not to get hurt, you know..."
Before he could finish his words, he felt a strong push on his back, almost making him fall down. Fortunately, Yin Xiu grabbed him.
He looked back and saw Yin Xiu holding the side of the boat with one hand and him with the other in the surging waves.
All around them, the scenery was receding at high speed, and the silhouette of the ship was gradually getting bigger.
“Is this really possible?!”
Luo Wei's eyes widened. "I feel this is very unreasonable!" "They say this is a miracle, what common sense is needed? Miracles are something that is unexpected."
As he spoke, Yin Xiu glanced at the boatman's hands, which were bulging with veins, and murmured, "Anyway, we are indeed approaching the ship quickly, right?"
"Why don't you use your teleportation skill? When I found out that the bastard's boat had left, I suggested that you use it. Anyway, no matter how far it runs, as long as you can see it, you can appear on the boat in an instant, right?"
"That's what I said."
Yin Xiu touched his face.
"But if that's the case, the Taoist priest from Mount Laoshan will also find out, right? He is an expert in Qimen Dunjia. If I use the magic of speed, he will probably sense it immediately."
“That’s a problem too.”
Luo Wei scratched his head and said, "So we can only rely on manpower to get there?"
"Yes, this is our current situation. He is in the light, we are in the dark, everything is reversed."
“It’s not the other way around.”
Luo Wei seemed to be thinking about something. "Didn't we come here to find him in the first place? It's just that the offensive and defensive positions have changed for a while."
"So now we are back on track."
Yin Xiu was beginning to look forward to meeting the Taoist priest from Mount Laoshan more and more.
Through those diaries and everyone's memories, Yin Xiu has learned some things about the Taoist priests of Laoshan.
The other person gradually became clearer from a ghost wearing a mask that seemed to not exist in this world.
Yin Xiu already had some understanding of his personality, the way he did things, some of his thoughts, and even his preferences.
It was as if the two had never met, they were pen pals thousands of miles apart but had been corresponding frequently over the years.
Now, these two "friends" who are separated by heaven and earth are finally going to meet.
This meeting is for the future of Kyushu and also for personal destiny.
While he was thinking a lot, the boat was approaching the ship.
"You two, if we were any closer, we would be caught in the turbulent current and torn to pieces," the boatman said proudly.
Luo Wei gave him a thumbs up and said, "Man, you are simply a superman!"
The boatman took off his straw hat and said respectfully, but he couldn't suppress the smile on his face. "Thank you for the compliment."
"All right."
Yin Xiu also grinned and said, "We can just go the rest of the way by ourselves."
As he spoke, he and Luo Wei's feet sank at the same time, using the boat as a springboard. They jumped up to the ground, and the boat let out a scream that was almost a groan.
When the two jumped again, the boatman also jumped due to the huge rebound force.
Before he could comprehend what was happening before his eyes, he saw two figures suddenly jump onto the side of the ship, which was twenty meters away and nearly four stories high, and stand firmly on it.
"You two are supermen!" exclaimed the boatman.
Yin Xiu and Luo Wei seemed to have heard the boatman's exclamation. They turned around, gave him a thumbs up, and then landed on the deck without looking back.
As they walked, Yin Xiu explained the key points of this meeting to Luo Wei.
"First of all, we have to know that the guy can disguise himself. He may disguise himself as a ghost. He may be a red-haired Sicilian, or a Caucasian with a high nose. All of these are possible.
But he might still be a Tang person, just not quite the same as we imagined.
So appearance, body shape, age and so on don’t matter, what we are looking for is a pair of eyes.
Once you look at that guy's eyes, you will never forget them. You will feel something stung in your heart and skip a beat."
"You sound like you're describing a poisonous snake." Luo Wei asked doubtfully.
“They are all pretty much the same.”
Yin Xiu was very serious. "Isn't that a poisonous snake? You know it's hiding in the haystack. We went looking for it with a fork and a hound, but we couldn't find it.
But by the time you see it, it has already bitten you on the ankle, leaving two bloody holes and killing you."
"So that's a scary look."
Luo Wei nodded and said, "Then I understand. I will pay attention to these eyes and ignore everything else."
"Yes," Yin Xiu smiled, "Just ignore everything else and just look for that pair of eyes. If there's no problem, we'll split up.
We will start from the first class cabin and go all the way to the economy cabin, from the sailors to the captain, we will check everyone, if we do this, we will definitely find that guy."
"Okay, I'll start from the left and you go from the right. We must find these people." Luo Wei said firmly.
"Wrong, it's not these people, it's this person."
Yin Xiu emphasized: "From the beginning to the end, we were only for the Taoist priest of Laoshan. As for his followers, I don't care.
And I expected that he would be alone, without any followers to protect him, at most..."
"Kunlun strongman, right?"
Luo Wei's face was a little serious. "He may have brought the Kunlun warriors with him. If a fight breaks out here, who knows how many people will be killed in the aftermath of the battle."
It has to be admitted that Kunlun Hercules did cause huge trouble to Yin Xiu and the others.
These are just biological weapons that have been modified to reach the level of great masters, and each one of them is not easy to deal with.
From the Red Emperor at the beginning to the two they met in the community later, they were Yin Xiu and the other two. If they made a mistake, they might very likely die at the hands of those Kunlun strongmen.
"Ah."
This is also what Yin Xiu was worried about.
"Let's not talk about whether it will affect other people. Just the existence of those Kunlun warriors is enough to make us be extremely cautious.
So what I mean is, if you find that Taoist priest from Mount Laoshan, don't pay attention to what he has to say, just kill him, or break his hands and feet first so that he can't move.
Then I took the Dragon Emperor's Son from him, and the matter was over.
We didn’t say a word more, and we didn’t stay a moment longer.”
"This time it's truly over." Luo Wei murmured.
As long as the Taoist priest of Laoshan died, even if the medium connecting to the Kunlun strongman was still alive, the caster of Qimen Dunjia would have already died, and the mysterious and powerful Qimen Dunjia would naturally be lifted.
It's like the silk thread controlling the puppet has broken. The puppet will fall straight to the ground and become a pile of waste, no longer a killing machine.
In this case, we must speed up our pace and find the Taoist priest from Laoshan as soon as possible.
Luo Wei lowered his head and went into the cabin.
Almost at the same time, another person came out and bumped into him.
Luo Wei was fine, just paused.
The man was not as strong as Luo Wei, so he naturally took a few steps back due to the sudden collision.
The first person to apologize was the one who was hit and stepped back.
"I'm sorry, I was a little seasick and felt really nauseous. I wanted to go to the deck and take a look, but I bumped into your husband."
"It doesn't matter."
Luo Wei said softly, "I walked too fast. Are you seasick? I have some Fengyoujing here. Maybe it can help you."
As he spoke, he lowered his head to take the ointment, and when he looked up again, he met a pair of eyes as sharp as knives.
Luo Wei's heart skipped a beat. (End of this chapter)
