Asking about longevity

The days in the sect were uneventful, and after eight days, it soon came to the end of the year.

Because Bishan City was a bit far away and it would take a lot of time to get back and forth, so Mo Hua took an extra day off.

With Mr. Xun as the "backstage", the elders of the sect are very easy to talk to.

Therefore, I took this day off smoothly.

Three days in total!

Mo Hua packed his luggage and happily went to find Senior Sister Murong with his storage bag in hand.

This mission was taken over by Murong Caiyun, and Mo Hua followed suit.

Murong Caiyun knew that Mo Hua was accumulating merit and changing the formation diagram, so he said:

"This mission is not difficult, so there are only three people including you, so you can get a little more credit."

Mo Hua smiled and said: "Thank you, senior sister!"

The two of them walked towards Taixu's door together, Mo Hua walking briskly, chatting all the way.

"three people……"

Mo Hua thought for a while and asked, "Senior sister, who else is there?"

Murong Caiyun said: "There is also Senior Brother Feng from Tai'amen."

"Senior Brother Feng..."

Mo Hua nodded.

Senior Brother Feng is gentle and polite, and has profound cultivation. He seems to have a high status in Tai'amen. He is considered one of the inner disciples of the inner sect, and he is indeed a "big brother".

"Where are Senior Brother Xu and Sister Qianqian?"

"Junior Brother Xu needs to recover from his injuries. The task is not difficult. If he doesn't have many achievements, we won't let him run around."

"As for Qianqian..."

Murong Caiyun paused, "She is quite busy, so let's forget it this time..."

"Oh." Mo Hua nodded.

Murong Caiyun sighed slightly.

That girl Qian Qian urged herself every day, saying that she wanted to do tasks with Mo Hua, and even prepared "gifts" for Mo Hua, which were all little girls' skirts, hairpins, rouge and so on.

Talking about dressing up the ink painting, it will look like pink carving and jade carving, it will definitely look good...

Murong Caiyun was afraid that she would do something wrong, so he didn't call her this time.

But Hua Qianqian kept nagging in her ears. She looked at the ink painting, and unknowingly, the handsome appearance of the ink painting wearing a flowery embroidered Taoist robe appeared in her mind, and she was a little stunned.

"Sister?"

Mo Hua felt a little strange when he saw her lost in thought.

Murong Caiyun came back to her senses, her cheeks were slightly red, and she coughed, "It's getting late, let's go faster..."

"oh……"

Mo Hua's eyes were a little suspicious, but he didn't ask any more questions.

Soon the two met up with Ouyang Feng, who was wearing Tai'a Taoist robes, hired a carriage, and left the border of Qianxue Prefecture. They rushed on the wide mountain road towards Bishan City outside the border of Qianxue Prefecture.

The sound of horse hooves outside the car is loud, but it is quiet and comfortable inside.

Mo Hua was sitting at the window, lying on a soft blanket, looking at the scenery along the way and talking to Murong Caiyun and Ouyang Feng.

"This time I am going to catch a disciple who rebelled against the sect..."

Murong Caiyun said, "More than ten years ago, this disciple stole inheritance, killed fellow disciples, and defected from the sect. He was tracked down for a long time but was not caught..."

"Ten years ago?"

Mo Hua was a little surprised.

Murong Caiyun nodded, "Those who stole were some minor inheritances, and the 'fellow disciple' who was killed was actually just a handyman. This matter did not become a big deal, so there was no commotion."

"And that disciple who rebelled against the sect also kept a very low profile. He betrayed the sect and then disappeared without revealing any clues."

"Daotingsi doesn't seem to care much about it..."

"Is it because there is no oil or water?" Mo Hua secretly asked.

Murong Caiyun paused, a little helpless, and gently gouged out the ink painting:

"Firstly, because there are not many clues, and secondly, Daotingsi does... have limited manpower, so this matter has been put on hold for the time being."

"Oh." Mo Hua "understood".

Ouyang Feng continued: "Later, the Xie family's warehouse in Bishan City was stolen. When tracking the thief, the thief was forced to use the method of 'breaking the golden gate', and then he was exposed..."

"The Xie family of Bishan City went to Duanjinmen to ask for an explanation..."

"Duanjinmen checked the list of stolen inheritances, and after comparing the two, it was discovered that the thief was the disciple who rebelled against the sect ten years ago."

Mo Hua frowned, "Broken Golden Gate?"

Murong Caiyun said: "He is one of the "twelve-rate" sects in the Qianxue State. He is good at the sword-controlling method of the five elements and gold system..."

Mo Hua nodded.

He seemed to have heard this name mentioned once when Aunt Wan introduced the twelve sects in Qianzhou, but other than that, there shouldn't be any overlap with them.

But when he heard the words "Broken Golden Gate", he vaguely felt that this sect seemed to have some cause and effect with him...

Mo Hua wondered again: "Shouldn't Duanjinmen pursue the traitorous disciples of Duanjinmen?"

"I chased, but I didn't catch up..."

"Didn't catch up?"

Murong Caiyun nodded, "That rebel disciple has very good body skills..."

Ouyang Feng also said: "Yes, the Taoist technique he stole from the Yujian Sect included a movement technique called 'Escape the Golden Technique'. The key is that he learned it very well. None of the disciples of the Duanjin Sect." Catch up with him, the traitor who broke the Golden Gate..."

Ouyang Feng was a little sad.

A disciple with a legitimate inheritance is no match for this traitor who "stealed the inheritance"...

"The Xie family in Bishan City was dissatisfied. They felt that Duanjinmen was 'letting go' and secretly shielding the thief, so they issued another reward to capture the thief."

"But the Xie family in Bishan City is not very powerful, so the reward for their merits is not huge."

"Moreover, there is Duanjinmen. They don't want the traitors of their own sect to be caught by other disciples, let alone give merit to others..."

Mo Hua muttered: "Broken Golden Gate... is so narrow-minded..."

Ouyang Feng laughed, "Indeed, but you should be careful. Don't let the disciples of Duanjinmen hear these words. Small-minded people don't want others to call them 'small-minded'..."

Mo Hua smiled and nodded.

Half a day later, the three of them arrived at Bishan City.

Bishan City, as its name suggests, has thousands of walls and crisscrossing mountains and ridges.

Most of the cave buildings are built on steep cliffs, which look strange and magnificent.

However, Bishan City is now closed, and only people are allowed in but not allowed out.

Because the Jinmen traitors stole the Xie family's family warehouse, the Xie family reported to the court.

Daotingsi sealed the city and searched for the traitor all over the city. The momentum was quite high.

Mo Hua asked curiously: "What exactly was stolen from the Xie family?"

Murong Caiyun shook his head, "I don't know, the Xie family didn't tell me, and it's hard for us to inquire..."

"The city was sealed off with such great fanfare and a lot of manpower was used, but the reward for meritorious deeds was pitiful. The Xie family is really stingy..."

Mo Hua said a little unhappy.

He now lacks meritorious service, so he is a little "grudge" about the Xie family's "stingyness".

And this Xie family feels a bit strange...

Logically speaking, a warehouse theft or a city lockdown and search are considered "big events," and at least the rewards posted should be for more meritorious deeds.

Murong Caiyun said: "We use merit to do things, and there is no need to worry about other things."

Ouyang Feng also said: "Finish it early and go back early."

"Okay." Mo Hua nodded.

Their purpose is to assist the Xie family in catching the traitor who broke the Golden Gate.

The Xie family was searching the city, but they said they were "searching the city" and they only sent family disciples to patrol the streets and search everywhere to see if there were any suspicious monks.

To actually search door to door, the Xie family didn't have the courage, let alone the strength.

Even if Bishan City is only a small fairy city, in Qianzhou, it is difficult to guarantee that in any teahouse or tavern, there will only be a real person drinking tea or a monk drinking...

Murong Caiyun and the other three also searched for a while, but found nothing, and then they went to search separately.

Mo Hua walked on the streets of Bishan City, secretly releasing his consciousness and peeking around.

He didn't want to pry into people's privacy, but wanted to find out if there was anyone strange.

The monks in Bishan City come from all kinds of religions.

He could clearly detect the qualitative change of Mo Hua's spiritual consciousness in most of the monks. However, out of respect for others, Mo Hua did not peek too closely. He only looked at Zhe Zhi briefly to judge whether he was the traitor.

There are also some whose auras are obscure and profound, and as soon as the divine consciousness of ink painting passes by, they are immediately withdrawn.

These great monks, at least Jindan and above, are not something he can "offend" now.

But there are also some monks who are plainly dressed, but are inexplicably powerful. Even if the ink painting's spiritual consciousness is about to disappear at a touch, they are still perceived by them.

They glanced at Mo Hua like swords, but when they saw that Mo Hua was just a boy in his teens, they were suddenly startled.

Mo Hua saluted respectfully as an apology.

When they saw this, they didn't care and nodded slightly.

Mo Hua breathed a sigh of relief, but also sighed in his heart:

"The world of cultivation is indeed Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, especially in Qianzhou, a small fairy city like this, where you can meet so many masters..."

After bumping into "nails" a few times, saluting a few times, and apologizing a few times, I became proficient in ink painting.

Even without peeking through his spiritual consciousness, he could sense which monks were not easy to mess with just by "intuition".

Just take a look and you'll know it in your mind.

As long as you peek into the ink painting with your spiritual consciousness, you will be "aware" of the interest a lot, and you will no longer offend those real people or great monks...

After searching like this for most of a day, Mo Hua relied on his deep spiritual consciousness and subtle perception to search most of Bishan City, but still found nothing.

Then I can only look for some places I haven't searched...

Mo Hua thought for a while and went to a "brothel".

Although it looks like just an ordinary restaurant, Mo Hua can still conclude based on his only one experience in Nanyue City, where he was led by Elder Su and went to Baihua House to drink flower wine:

This is not a restaurant, but a brothel!

There is a restaurant in front, but there is a vague atmosphere of "not suitable for children" floating in the back.

The Taoist court prohibits dual cultivation, and even more prohibits taking supplements.

In other words, the reason why "double cultivation" is prohibited is mainly to prohibit "taking supplements" and to prevent someone from "making up a clever name" and doing the actual practice of taking supplements in the name of dual cultivation.

Zhang Lan told Mo Hua a long time ago.

Therefore, the Taoist court also strictly controls places like "brothels".

Of course, the Taoist administration is strict and the Taoist laws and regulations are also very strict, but it is hard to say for the local Taoist bureau.

When it comes to different fairy cities, the situation is even more complicated.

For example, in Nanyue City, the Lu family relies on the brothel to win over people's hearts, relies on the brothel to earn spiritual stones, relies on the brothel to exploit the mines and repairs, and relies on the brothel to win over the Tao Ting Si.

In this case, many of the monks in Daotingsi were frequent visitors to the brothel themselves, and they were complicit in the evil, and it was impossible to take care of them.

However, there is an exception in the Qianxue state boundary. Within the entire state boundary, brothels are strictly prohibited.

The border of Qianxue State is a prosperous place for Taoism, where young talented disciples from all over the world gather.

The sect does not want its disciples to indulge in sensuality and pleasure, thereby damaging their foundation, wasting their time, and damaging their Taoist aspirations.

I am even more afraid that some demon cultivators will use their beauty to seduce and seduce the disciples of the sect, causing them to lose sight of good and evil, indulge in desires, and lead to self-destruction.

Therefore, not only within the boundaries of Qianxue State, but also within the boundaries of this state, any fireworks are prohibited.

Several nearby state borders and many fairy cities have also banned the establishment of brothels.

But eating and drinking, men and women, and people's great desires can be forbidden but difficult to stop.

Therefore, there is a restaurant in the front and a brothel in the back, this kind of business of selling dog meat with sheep's head.

Mo Hua snorted coldly and felt that he should criticize this kind of thing. Moreover, the land of fireworks has always harbored filth and evil, so the traitor might be hiding in it, so he went directly into the restaurant.

The waiter in the restaurant was obviously taken aback when he saw Mo Hua.

Their restaurant has never seen such a handsome young man with red lips and white teeth.

"Young Master, what are you..."

"I eat."

Mo Hua said of course.

"Oh, yes, dinner... please."

The waiter thought that Mo Hua didn't know what was going on, and just thought that their place was just a restaurant where they could drink and eat, so he smiled and enthusiastically led Mo Hua in.

The interior is gorgeously decorated and has a strong smell of rouge.

The waiter led Mo Hua to find a table and sit down.

Mo Hua looked at the menu and thought it was very expensive. Not only the various dishes, but also the snacks and drinks were twice as expensive as outside.

But in order to "track down the traitor", Mo Hua still endured the pain and ordered a table of wine and food.

It happened that after walking for a long time, he was also hungry. Mo Hua took a peek with his spiritual consciousness and found that the food and wine were fine and had not been drugged, so he ate food, drank wine, and looked around.

The restaurant in front is fairly "clean".

Those who ate ate, and those who drank drank, but a stage with a pink curtain was set up in the center, and there were beautiful women dancing on the stage.

There will also be women around, with light hair and charming smiles on their faces, accompanying the wine.

Mo Hua gnawed on the big chicken leg, letting go of his consciousness and seeing everything around him.

After looking at it for a long time, Mo Hua slowly figured it out...

In this restaurant, the woman dancing above is the "menu".

After the dance, the diners below will "order" whichever woman they like.

The dancing woman will come down to accompany the drink when a diner orders.

While drinking, the men and women were whispering to each other, most likely discussing "meal money."

After the negotiation is completed, they will go to the back to "eat".

After finishing the meal, they will "check out".

Pure Mo Hua was shocked.

These monks have so many tricks up their sleeves!

This little thought, instead of being spent on the right path, was actually used to design the "wine as a sex matchmaker"...

Food and drinks are still so expensive!

Mo Hua was very angry.

He looked at the dancing woman in the middle, and suddenly he was startled, his eyes narrowed slightly.

He discovered that in the corner of the stage, there was a dancing woman. She had an average appearance and a slender waist, but her every move looked very problematic...

Mo Hua's spiritual consciousness swept away, and his thoughts were indeed true.

This woman is a man!

And his heart moved slightly, and he was suddenly very sure that this person was the traitor who broke the Golden Gate, and he was the person who was offering a reward for his arrest this time!

In the land of fireworks, men dress up as women.

Mo Hua snorted.

Immoral!

He immediately used the Taixu Order to send a message to Senior Sister Murong:

"Sister, I found the traitor!"

The Taixu Order can be used to summon people, only from the same sect.

This was what Senior Sister Murong taught him later. He didn't know how to play ink painting at first, so he didn't use it much.

In just a moment, Murong Caiyun replied:

"Where are you?"

Ink painting: "Beauty..."

Murong Caiyun: "..."

The person on the other side was silent for a long time, as if he couldn't figure out how Mo Hua found the brothel after searching for it, but after more than ten breaths, he still got a reply:

"Where is the brothel?"

Mo Hua sent the name of the restaurant.

Murong Caiyun said:

"I know, I'll go over right now, you protect yourself."

"Uh-huh."

Mo Hua nodded, but felt a little strange.

This phrase "protect yourself" is a bit weird...

What do I have to protect...

After about two sticks of incense, Ouyang Feng and Murong Caiyun arrived at the door of the restaurant.

The waiter was also shocked when he heard that they were here to find his junior brother. He hesitated for a long time before letting the two of them in, but he was inevitably wary and kept staring at them.

The three of them spoke in lowered voices.

"Junior brother, why are you here?"

Mo Hua waved his hand, "That's not the point."

He then pointed at the "woman" who was still dancing on the stage, a man dressed as a woman, with a thin waist and heavy makeup:

"This is most likely the traitor."

Mo Hua was almost certain, but he was still a little modest and didn't say anything for sure.

Murong Caiyun and Ouyang Feng were both a little surprised. They frowned and stared at the "woman" for a long time, their eyes slightly sharp.

"A man dressing up as a woman and dancing here would be a good way to hide from others..."

"I'm afraid it's not just to 'cover people's eyes'..."

Maybe there is a "side job".

Even if you are a rebel disciple, even if you are a wanted criminal cultivator, you still have to earn a living...

"what to do?"

"Do you want to start directly?"

"Will it alert the enemy?"

Ouyang Feng and Murong Caiyun were discussing.

Mo Hua said: "I'll point him over."

Murong Caiyun and the two were stunned, "Click?"

"Yeah." Mo Hua nodded, "If you can ask him to come over and drink with you, then we can take the opportunity to catch him!"

Murong Caiyun finally couldn't help it anymore, "Junior brother, do you... come here often?"

Why do you look like a regular customer...

Mo Hua said with a straight face, "I am a serious monk! I will never come to a place like this! Unless I have to..."

Murong Caiyun glanced at Mo Hua suspiciously.

"It's about getting the job done!"

Mo Hua added.

Ouyang Feng smiled bitterly and said, "It's important to catch the traitor."

"Senior Brother Feng is right!" Mo Hua nodded, waved, called the waiter, pointed to the stage, and nodded to the monk dressed as a woman:

"I want 'her' to come drink with me!"

The waiter was startled and looked at the ink painting with admiration. Then he went up and called the "woman" down.

The "woman" knew that she was "named" and looked a little stunned.

The waiter pointed at the three people in Mo Hua. The "woman's" eyes narrowed slightly, then she lowered her head and walked towards this side meekly, but her pace became slower and slower.

Mo Hua said: "He is going to run away..."

Ouyang Feng immediately dodged, rushed forward, stretched out his big hand, and wanted to catch the "woman".

But the "woman" had already expected it, and her movements were sharp, with a faint golden light, and she quickly retreated back.

Ouyang Feng missed him and continued to move forward, but was stopped by a strange man.

The man looked frivolous and said with a smile:

"Fellow Taoist, I see you are also a talented person. Why are you so ignorant of compassion..."

Ouyang Feng was impatient and kicked him away without waiting for him to finish, and then continued to chase the "woman".

The "woman" was running in front. She was no longer pretentious. Judging by her movements, she was indeed a man, and her body skills were indeed excellent.

Murong Caiyun used five-color spiritual light to delay the "woman's" actions.

Mo Hua raised his hand halfway, then stopped. With a slight thought, he changed the Water Prison Technique to the Fire Ball Technique.

And without regard to accuracy, he fired fireballs one after another at the "woman".

This fireball technique is very casual.

Most of the fireballs were dodged by the "woman" and then hit the restaurant. The fireballs overflowed and exploded, making a mess.

There is no place for this kind of fireworks that sells dog meat at the expense of sheep...

Mo Hua made up his mind and didn't hold back. He quickly destroyed a large area of ​​the good restaurant with his fireball technique.

The pink curtain burned, the table collapsed, and screams of men and women came from behind the restaurant.

The owner of the restaurant turned pale.

He is engaged in a shady business. He runs a brothel near the border of Qianxue State. Once exposed to the light, he will be in bad luck.

But he didn't dare to take action.

Because Ouyang Feng and Murong Caiyun were already dead at first glance and had extraordinary origins, he might not be able to afford to offend them.

The "restaurant" was noisy and chaotic.

The "woman" also took the opportunity to escape and ran north along the street.

Ouyang Feng chased after him.

"Chase!" Murong Caiyun said decisively.

"good!"

Mo Hua nodded and "escaped" a small order.

The noise outside also attracted many cultivators, both from the Xie family and from the Dao Tingsi.

When the monks from Daotingsi saw a bunch of disheveled men and women in the restaurant, they knew without thinking what kind of wine this "restaurant" sold.

In broad daylight, they have to check if they don't want to.

And the Xie family also knew that the "woman" who was on the run was the traitor of Duanjinmen, and she was also the person the Xie family was chasing.

So both sides started chasing the traitor who was disguised as a woman.

But this traitor, transformed into golden light, is fast and fierce, making it extremely difficult to catch up.

After chasing for a few streets, he suddenly disappeared.

The Xie family monk was furious and cursed angrily.

Ouyang Feng and Murong Caiyun also frowned, but Mo Hua's eyes were bright.

He saw everything.

The traitor turned to the corner of the street and hid in a dark alley. In just a few breaths, he changed his clothes and another face, pretending to be an ordinary, unremarkable male monk.

"Is this...disguise?"

Mo Hua's eyes moved slightly, and he became interested. He pointed with his hand and secretly said to Ouyang Feng:

"Senior Brother Feng, that person!"

Ouyang Feng was startled. He wanted to ask how Mo Hua knew, but time was tight and there was no time to ask in detail. And he subconsciously chose to believe Mo Hua's judgment.

Ouyang Feng pretended to be casual and quietly approached the male cultivator.

But the male cultivator had a very keen sense of smell. When he saw Ouyang Feng coming within ten feet of him, he immediately ran away.

Judging from the golden light on his body, he is indeed the traitor!

Ouyang Feng drew his sword and continued to chase.

In this way, the traitor mobilized his body skills and tried his best to escape. At the same time, he looked for opportunities and disguised himself in disguise, hoping to escape from the hands of Mo Hua and the others.

Mo Hua was not in a hurry to take action. Instead, he looked around and manipulated secretly. Unknowingly, he forced the traitor into an uninhabited mountain forest to the east of Bishan City.

He couldn't be caught in the city, otherwise he would fall into the hands of the Xie family and he wouldn't be able to find out the information.

Everything is as expected in the ink painting.

There was no one else around.

The traitor was also blocked by the three of them.

The traitor was now dressed as a big man, panting and looking at the three people, saying in disbelief:

"How on earth did you...recognize me?"

Mo Hua smiled and said, "Guess."

The big man's face twitched, his eyes full of anger, and then he sneered:

"Even if you can recognize me, so what? In front of my golden body technique, which I have worked hard for for ten years, everything is in vain. Want to catch me? Wishful thinking!"

The big man looked disdainful, made a sound, pushed his body skills to the extreme, golden light seeped into his legs, and wind blew under his feet, and he wanted to escape again in the blink of an eye.

With a tap of Mo Hua's finger, the Water Prison Technique came instantly.

The big man with an arrogant face was instantly locked up by the Water Prison Technique and fell flat on the ground.

Mo Hua shook his head, "I said you were fat, but you were also out of breath..."

With this little skill, I still want to show off in front of myself...

Ouyang Feng stepped forward, but the big man still wanted to struggle, but Ouyang Feng slashed his shoulder with a sword and kicked him to the ground.

He is just good at movement and truth cultivation, so he is no match for Ouyang Feng.

Ouyang Feng took the big man's storage bag and tied him up with Daotingsi's second-grade spiritual lock.

Murong Caiyun glanced at the ink painting, his eyes moved slightly, and he couldn't help but ask:

"Junior Brother Mo, what did you want to ask him by tricking him here?"

"Yeah." Mo Hua nodded, "There's no one here, so I can ask something."

Murong Caiyun thought for a moment, nodded and said:

"Okay, then you can ask."

Once you catch someone, the mission is over.

Before that, it didn't matter if Mo Hua asked something.

Mo Hua then said to the "big man":

"I'm going to ask you a few questions, and you tell me honestly!"

The big man ate dirt in his mouth, said "bah bah" a few times, and sneered:

"Kid, you're dreaming!"

Ouyang Feng shook his head, "This man's mouth is quite tough, I'm afraid he won't be able to pry it open."

Mo Hua asked: "Can I use torture?"

Ouyang Feng hesitated, "Torture..." He turned his head and looked at Murong Caiyun with a complicated expression, as if he was saying, "Do you, the junior brothers of Taixu Sect, all do things like this..."

If they don't agree with each other, they want to be tortured.

Murong Caiyun said helplessly: "Don't go too far... at least..."

Murong Caiyun thought for a long time and said helplessly: "Don't be too obvious..."

When the time comes, it will not be easy to explain to Daotingsi or the Xie family that they have used lynching and asked for things.

"Don't worry!" Mo Hua said with a smile, "I'm ready!"

"Ready?"

Mo Hua nodded, "Yeah!"

Considering that he would face this situation, he had already prepared for it.

Mo Hua took out an iron plate from his storage bag, which was covered with densely packed formations that made it hurt just to look at them.

Both Ouyang Feng and Ouyang Feng's eyelids couldn't help but twitch.

Mo Hua placed the iron plate on the ground and said to the big man:

"Kneel down!"
