Chapter 481 Missing (Fourth Update)

"Growing medicine?" Xiao Shiming rolled her eyes and said with a smile, "Do you use Linghe Peak as a medicine garden?"

Chu Li said: "The soil quality of Linghe Peak is better than Lingtu."

The aura of vegetation on Linghe Peak is comparable to that of the Heavenly Spirit Tree, so one knows how powerful its soil is, which is far inferior to the spiritual soil cultivated the day after tomorrow.

The spiritual soil they are using now is imitated from the soil of Shiwan Dashan, but after all, it is an acquired imitation, far inferior to the original soil of Shiwan Dashan. What's more, the growth of elixir is not only affected by the soil quality, but also by the surrounding environment.

Just like the ginseng under the forest of later generations, no matter how good the soil quality is, without the environment of the forest, the ginseng produced is far from good enough.

The same is true for elixirs. Many elixirs barely grow in the spiritual soil, and the efficacy of the medicines after they grow is much worse. If Linghe Peak can be regarded as a medicine garden, the elixirs produced are definitely not man-made. The medicine garden is comparable.

The elixir planted by Linghe Peak must have amazing effects.

Xiao Shi also understood this, and stared at him with her chin up, her deep and bright eyes shining brightly: "You can come up with such an idea, you are really clever!"

Chu Li smiled and said: "Now we have to think about what to plant, and get some seeds over there."

"Can you domesticate the spirit crane and make it a mount?" Xiao Shi smiled and said, "With your lightness kung fu, you won't be afraid even if you fall from the sky."

Chu Li shook his head and said, "Linghe is very intelligent and very proud. It would be nice not to treat us as mounts!"

In this world, human beings are not the masters, but spirit beasts are the spirits of all things and the masters of this world.

They see people like humans see monkeys.

Xiao Shi said: "With your cunning, I believe you can do it."

"It's really unnecessary." Chu Li shook his head and said, "Although they are fast, they are not as fast as me, and they cannot leave the Hundred Thousand Mountains."

"It feels different in the sky." Xiao Shi said.

Chu Li smiled and said nothing.

Xiao Shibai glanced at him and said, "Try it."

"Okay." Chu Li said: "But don't be in a hurry, take your time, step by step, and the relationship needs to be cultivated slowly."

"You don't think it's troublesome." Xiao Shi shook his head and smiled.

Chu Li said: "You can't treat them as beasts. They are very smart and sensitive. If you don't change your mind, it will be difficult to get along with them."

"Got it." Xiao Shi snorted, "I'll treat them as big shots."

Chu Li smiled: "When are you planning to return to the palace?"

"Let's talk later." Xiao Shi frowned, "I don't want to go back!"

Chu Li said: "Alright, don't worry."

The two were talking, when Xue Ling floated over in a small boat.

Looking at her face, Chu Li knew it was not good news.

Xueling came in a snow-white shirt, bowed her head and bowed: "Master, miss, two secret guards from the Forbidden Palace are here to look for you."

Chu Li sighed: "I really can't be free, take it to the island."

"Yes." Xueling agreed and left curlingly.

Xiao Shidao: "What's the matter in the Secret Guard Mansion?"

"It's probably urging me to find disciples of the Guangming Sacred Cult." Chu Li shook his head and said, "There is nothing to evade this time, so I have to look for it."

"This is a matter of life and death." Xiao Shi frowned and said, "Can't you procrastinate any longer?"

"It was originally planned to be done after the eldest son's wedding." Chu Li said: "We can't delay any longer, otherwise the Secret Guard Mansion will be in a hurry."

"Okay." Xiao Shi said, "Be careful anyway."

Chu Li nodded: "There are no Guangming Sacred Sect disciples in our mansion, but we must be careful about assassination, and don't go out if you can't go out."

"En." Xiao Shi nodded lightly.

——

Chu Li disappeared in a flash and appeared on his own island.

A while later, Xueling brought Dong Qifei and Yang Zongwen to the reception hall on the island.

"Captain!" The two of them clasped their fists after entering the hall.

Chu Li pointed to the Grand Master's chair, Xue Ling served three cups of tea and retreated gracefully.

After the two sat down, they picked up the tea cup and took a sip.

Dong Qifei couldn't wait to say: "Captain, the governor of Baiyun City is missing, the commander asked us to find out the reason."

"The governor is missing?" Chu Li frowned, "When did it happen?"

"It happened three days ago." Dong Qifei said, "We galloped here without delay. The governor of Baiyun City disappeared for two days without any reason. Now the news is being suppressed by the guards of Baiyun City. It is our Secret Guard Mansion." detected information."

Yang Zongwen said: "The commander means that we can see if we can find it, and if we can't find it, we will find out the reason."

Chu Li nodded slowly: "Baiyun City... um, I'll go over and check."

"This is a secret order." Yang Zongwen took out a small box from his arms and presented it to Chu Li with both hands.

After Chu Li took it, he opened the sealed box, and inside was a booklet. As the two said, the booklet was stamped with Fu Mengshan's seal.

"Are you going with me?"

"certainly!"

"It's useless for you to go, I'll do it myself." Chu Li said.

"Captain!" Dong Qifei's eyes widened in dissatisfaction.

Yang Zongwen also looked at him angrily.

Chu Li said: "It's been four days, right?... When you rush over again, it will take another day. It's too late...I'll use my lightness kung fu to pass, you guys go slowly behind."

Yang Zongwen said: "We can run errands, do odd jobs or something."

"Have you checked the governor's background?" Chu Li said, "How about his background?"

Yang Zongwen hurriedly said: "This governor's surname is Hu, Hu Yingzhao, he was born in a famous family, his father was the editor of Qingguang Pavilion, and he had compiled the books in the inner library. colleagues."

Dong Qifei hurriedly said: "Could it be the city guard who killed him?...Maybe the city guard committed malpractice for personal gain, and Governor Hu found out about it, and killed him to silence him?"

"Won't this expose myself?" Yang Zongwen shook his head and said, "Guo Chengshou wouldn't be so impulsive."

"That's not necessarily the case!" Dong Qifei said, "You can do anything in a fit of anger. If you kill people on the spur of the moment, it's too late to regret it. You can only pretend to be missing. I guess it's probably the city guard who did it. , otherwise why would he suppress the news?"

"It may be someone else." Yang Zongwen said: "Furthermore, there is no need for such drastic means in officialdom battles."

"What if the city guards collaborate with the enemy and treason the country?" Dong Qifei said.

Yang Zongwen couldn't help laughing: "The capital is guarded in one city, so what's there to betray? Old Dong, be more reliable in your words!"

"Anyway, I think there is something wrong with the city guard!" Dong Qifei snorted, and turned to look at Chu Li: "Captain, I have already checked this city guard. His surname is Guo, and Guo Zaixing is a disciple of King Cheng!"

Chu Li frowned.

Dong Qifei said: "If you don't deal with the captain, it is likely to cause trouble on purpose!...I'm afraid that a governor didn't pay attention to Cheng Wang at all, and intentionally troubled the captain, right?"

"Well..." Yang Zongwen murmured, "We have to be on our guard, King Cheng is indeed capable of doing such a thing."

Chu Li waved his hand and said, "I'll find out when I go and have a look."

"Captain, what if we stay in the open and in the dark?" Yang Zongwen said: "The captain is in the open, so let's go over to respond in secret. If there is any problem, we can also be prepared."

"That's right!" Dong Qifei nodded hurriedly.

Seeing their urgency, Chu Li knew that they wanted to make a contribution, so he thought for a while: "That's fine, then you guys came secretly."

The eyeliner of Miweifu is everywhere, and it is more convenient to have them.

"Then let's go now." Chu Li said.

"Yes!" The two replied enthusiastically.
