by Natividad 09:10,Jan 11,2024


Seven Dust Star, Puxu City.

Beale had some impressions of this place and remembered a friend.

"Gordie, go to the nearby Qianlan Holy Land and give this letter to a man named Xenon."

There was some content written in the letter, and Beale handed it into Gordie's hands.

"Uncle Junior, what about you?"Gordie's face looked a little worried: "I don't feel at ease leaving you here alone."

"I will stay here and not go anywhere. If you are worried, then set up some restrictions."Beale said.

"Is this letter important?"Gordie asked.

"As long as we find that acquaintance, it will be much more convenient to do things here, and the chance of finding the ghost doctor will be greater."

Beale nodded slowly.

"Okay, I'll go back quickly."

Before leaving, Gordie locked Beale in the stone car and activated a special protection mechanism.

After Gordie left, Beale had a somewhat solemn look on his face and murmured to himself: "I have to find a way to trick Gordie back so that I can do business."

So far, Beale has not told anyone about the spiritual root reconstruction. Only when you become stronger will you not be remembered by others, let alone cause turmoil.

"Let that boy Xenon set up a game, and he will definitely be able to fool Gordie."

Beale made a plan in his mind, lying in the car with his eyes closed, waiting for the passage of time.

A few days later, Gordie, dressed in white, brought back a young man in black.

This young man in black was Xenon. The first thing he saw when he saw the letter was that it was written by Beale. The contents were all about the details of an incident in the past and could not be faked.

Therefore, Xenon put down everything in his hands and rushed over in a hurry.

"Beale, it's really you!"

When he saw Beale for the first time, Xenon was surprised and happy.

The Tianyuan incident a hundred years ago caused an uproar, and Xenon, who was far away in the Yunhai Star Territory, heard the news. When he learned that Beale died in Tianyuan, Xenon lamented for a long time.

When he saw the letter just now, Xenon was stunned. After Gordie's narration, Han Shan learned that Beale faked his death and escaped, and was blessed with great fortune.

"Mr. Xenon, I saved your life back then, it's time for you to return the favor."

Beale got straight to the point and was too lazy to reminisce with Xenon.

A hundred years ago, Beale came to a certain place in Yunhai Star Territory, accidentally met Xenon, and entered the secret realm with him to explore. The secret territory was very dangerous. Xenon almost lost his life, but Beale rescued him.

"Repay it, of course I have to return it."

Xenon nodded heavily.

"Come in and talk about it!"Beale pointed at the stone cart.

The scene changed, and the three of them were sitting in a stone car, drinking tea and talking in detail.

In order to ensure that this conversation would not be spread outside, Gordie imposed several additional restrictions.

Half an hour later, Xenon roughly understood the cause of the matter.

During the conversation, Beale looked at Xenon with deep eyes and said sincerely: "Mr. Xenon, you are a local snake in Qichen Star. The ghost doctor will definitely find you!"

"I'll try my best."Xenon and Beale looked at each other with serious expressions.

Through Beale's eyes, Xenon seemed to understand something, tacitly understanding it.

"I have heard about the traces of the ghost doctor. It is said that the man is hidden in Puxu City. Many powerful people have come to look for him, but unfortunately they have found nothing."

Xenon said slowly: "You stay in the city for the time being and give me some time to find out the news. If there are any clues, I will inform you."

"Okay."Beale nodded.

Gordie stood up and clasped his fists: "Excuse me, fellow Taoist."

"You are Welcome."

Before leaving, Xenon took one more look at Beale.

After Xenon had left for a while, Gordie showed a hint of worry on his face and asked in a low voice: "Uncle Junior, is this person trustworthy?"

"Don't worry!"Beale replied: "Mr. Xenon and I are close friends of life and death, there will be no problem."

"That's good."

It is normal for Gordie to have such concerns.

Don't trust others easily when you are away from home, as this can easily lead to disaster.

Gordie received the chariot into the Qiankun Bag and walked into Puxu City with Beale.

This city is huge, housing tens of millions of creatures, and is very prosperous.

Trying to find a ghost doctor in the city is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

The two found a safe monk's inn to stay. In order to take care of and protect Beale, they opened a larger cave with restrictions on all sides and no outsiders were allowed to enter.

After a night's rest, Beale planned to walk around the city: "You're all here, let's have some fun!"

"Uncle Junior, let's be more cautious and don't go out wandering around!"

This place is very far away from Xuan Qing Sect. If there is any trouble, Beale may be put in danger. To be safe, stay in the cave and don't go anywhere.

"Why are you so cautious?"Beale laughed and cursed: "There are guards guarding the city. Under normal circumstances, there will be no trouble and it is very safe."

"Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the unexpected. It's always right to act with caution."

Lin Pingyan refused to let Beale go out for a walk, and directly blocked all exits.

"Gordie, you've gone too far."

Beale originally wanted to go out for a walk, and by the way, he used special means to send a message to Xenon and tell Xenon exactly how to operate. However, Gordie blocked the door directly, causing Beale to give up this idea.

"For the safety of my junior uncle, Gordie is offended."

Gordie put on a righteous and awe-inspiring look.

Seeing this, Beale had to give up and lie down on a soft bed to rest: "Forget it, don't go out!"

After half a month of boring life, Xenon finally arrived.

Xenon and Gordie had exchanged sound transmission jade talismans, and it was easy to know the other party's location.

"Uncle Junior, there is news."

Gordie was very happy.

"Really?"Beale was startled, with a strange look on his face, but he didn't look happy at all.

"Xenon is on East Street right now. Let's go find him."

With that said, Gordie released the restraint, pulled Beale with a gentle force, and arrived at East Street very quickly.

East Street, the entrance to a small alley.

Han Shan is standing here, waiting quietly.

"Xenon."Gordie stepped forward and cupped his fists in salute.

"Gordie."Xenon returned the greeting, glanced into the alley, and lowered his voice: "After many inquiries, I eliminated most of the aborigines and screened out the suspicious people who have been to Puxu City in the past ten years."

"Tell the important point."

Beale said.

"Currently, I have more than a dozen candidates, all of whom may be ghost doctors. We can only try one by one."

Xenon said seriously.

To be honest, Xenon really tried hard to investigate the traces of the ghost doctor, and there was no fraud. However, these were all to dispel Gordie's concerns and prevent him from becoming suspicious.

From the expression in Beale's eyes, Xenon roughly understood its meaning. Create a fake ghost doctor and fool Gordie. Although Xenon didn't understand what this meant, he could only do it.

Brothers who are close friends in life and death will never let their feelings fade even after a hundred years.

Beale actually has multiple plans. As long as he has the cover of the ghost doctor's treatment, he can claim to the outside world that he has been cured, without anyone questioning it, and he can legitimately expose his cultivation.

In addition, Beale sent Gordie away so that he could deal with his own important matters and seize the time to practice.

In order for everything to be reasonable, there must be a prerequisite: Gordie must believe that he has really found a ghost doctor, and he must also agree to treat his injuries.

"Come on, let's go in and take a look."

Xenon led the way, followed closely by Beale and others.
