Chapter 1047

Originally, they had planned to leave Gucheng in the near future, but suddenly they heard that someone said they had seen the woman in the portrait, even with Zhou Fan's identity and determination, they couldn't help but turn pale with shock.

There is no way, this matter is too important, and Zhou Fan is also very clear that if he can find Qin Shuirou, the benefits he can bring to him are simply unimaginable, and it is even possible that Zhou Fan Anyone can jump over the dragon gate and go directly to work in the holy palace.

Although with Zhou Fan's cultivation base, he can only be a deacon at most when he goes to the Holy Palace, but he is an elder in Baimo Shengzong, but there is a difference between the deacon of the Holy Palace and the elder of Baimo Shengzong. I am afraid that anyone knows who is noble.

Take the deacon of the Holy Palace who is sitting in charge of the Baimo Sacred Sect this time as an example. He is only at the Dao King Realm, but because he is the deacon of the Sacred Palace, even the suzerain of the Baimo Sacred Sect would not dare to have the slightest bit of attention when he sees him. This is the benefit of being in a powerful sect, not looking at the monk's face but also looking at the Buddha's face.

As we all know, there are patriarchs, holy sons, holy lords, elders, and deacons from top to bottom in the holy palace. Elders can only be held by people with semi-holy cultivation. It goes without saying, but deacons are relatively complicated.

In the holy palace, there are many deacons, and their cultivation bases range from Dao King Realm to Dao Emperor Realm. Dao King Realm can become a deacon, and Dao King Realm can also become a deacon.

Under normal circumstances, there are two main sources of success in the Holy Palace, one is external recruitment, after a series of assessments, one can become a deacon of the Holy Palace, and the other is through promotion from disciples.

There are clear regulations in the Holy Palace. Once the disciples reach the age and the talent is not up to the standard, they will be restrained and turned into deacons, responsible for some chores in the Holy Palace.

However, although the deacons of the Holy Palace have both the Dao King Realm and the Dao King Realm, one needn’t think about it and know that the treatment between the two is very different. The treatment of one Dao King Realm deacon is enough to be worth ten Dao King Realm The deacon's treatment.

Zhou Fan knew something about the Holy Palace, so he knew very well that if he could really find Qin Shuirou, then he would give it a shot. Thinking about it, if he could enter the Holy Palace and become a deacon, it would definitely be The rhythm of soaring to the sky, even if he meets a current saint like Baimo Shengzong's suzerain, he, Zhou Fan, will be completely fearless.

Excited in the man's heart, Zhou Fan looked at the disciple in front of him nervously, and asked again, "You said someone has seen the woman in the portrait? Come on, tell me in detail."

Not daring to be careless, Zhou Fan immediately ordered the disciple to explain the matter in detail. Seeing this, the disciple did not dare to hide it and told the matter truthfully.

According to what this disciple said, they are in charge of visiting Gu City these days. Although the Gu family has never seen the woman in the portrait, it is obviously impossible for Zhou Fan and the others to give up searching just because of the words of the Gu family. , since arriving in Gucheng, Zhou Fan sent people to start searching in the city.

Speaking of it, it was just a process, and Zhou Fan himself had no hope from the beginning to the end.

However, in the past few days of visits, the disciple in front of me came to the home of an alchemist who lived in Gucheng today. As usual, the disciple showed Qin Shuirou's portrait to the alchemist Look, I thought it was futile, but who would have thought that after staring at the portrait for a long time, the alchemist actually said that he seemed to have seen this woman before.

As soon as these words came out, the disciple was stunned immediately, and he didn't dare to hesitate. He immediately returned with the alchemist and reported the situation to Zhou Fan.

He told Zhou Fan what happened in detail without any falsehood, and after listening to the disciple, Zhou Fan said with a solemn expression.

"Where is this alchemist now?"

"It's in the front yard." The disciple replied.

"Bring him to see me quickly," Zhou Fan said.

Since the alchemist said that he had seen the woman in the portrait, Zhou Fan naturally wanted to meet him in person. After the shock and excitement at the beginning, Zhou Fan also forced himself to calm down. Now is not the time to be happy. Before seeing Qin Shuirou with his own eyes, nothing can be concluded.

Urging the disciple to bring the alchemist to see him, the disciple immediately withdrew from the courtyard, but soon turned back, but this time, a gray-haired old man followed behind him, This person should be the alchemist.

After bringing him here, Zhou Fan sent the disciple away, and then looked at the white-haired old man in front of him, Zhou Fan said to the old man with a gentle attitude.

"Old man, please sit down."

To be so polite to an old man, Zhou Fan did not do this because the old man is an alchemist. To put it bluntly, the old man is not enough to make Zhou Fan face it, whether it is cultivation or alchemy level, so he is so polite. It was entirely because the old man might know clues about Qin Shuirou that Zhou Fan was very polite to him.

He personally asked the old man to sit down, and the two sat facing each other in the courtyard. Zhou Fan tried his best to keep calm and said with a gentle smile on his face.

"Old man, have you seen the woman in this portrait?"

Zhou Fan also held a portrait of Qin Shuirou in his hand, pointed at the old man and asked, hearing the words, the old man nodded, and then said a little nervously.

"I have indeed seen this woman, but when I look at her portrait, although her appearance is exactly the same, her expression is completely different, so I am not sure." Hearing this, the old man said truthfully.

The appearance is the same, but the temperament is very different. Hearing this, a strange color flashed in Zhou Fan's eyes, but as long as there is a clue, he can't give up. Therefore, Zhou Fan is still going to go in person, and first meet the person in the old man's mouth.

Thinking of this, Zhou Fan also asked the old man, "Does the old man know where this woman is now? Or where did the old man see this woman?"

"This woman is in Gu's house. A month ago, I went to Gu's house to treat a patient who was seriously injured under the order of Mr. Gu Le. It was the woman in this portrait, but unfortunately, my realm was too low, and I couldn't get up in the end. What effect does it have?" The old man said truthfully.

As a well-known alchemist in Gucheng, this old man was invited by Gu Le to treat Qin Shuirou more than a month ago, but at that time, Qin Shuirou was seriously injured, so this The old man had no choice but to apologize and leave in the end. Afterwards, Gu Le found a well-known alchemist from another city, which saved Qin Shuirou's life.

But it was because of that time that the old man met Qin Shuirou, and it was also because of this that Zhou Fan got clues about Qin Shuirou.

I'm afraid even Gu Le himself didn't think about it, but he would keep everything secret, forgetting that this old man had come to treat Qin Shuirou once.
