Xia Gui pretended not to know anything.

He carefully completed the various tasks in the base, and greeted everyone with a smile. It's as if all the things that happened a while ago have passed.

Only every night, he would hide in the shadows to polish his cultivation and prepare for breaking the seal.

There are several conditions required to unlock the second seal:

First of all, cultivation must reach the Yongquan Realm, and there is no problem with this.

Secondly, the soul realm must reach the reality realm, and there is no problem with that.

The hundred-year-old dragon snake inner pill, Xia Gui has already held it in his hand, so the only thing that is suspicious is the hundred-foot concentration of soul essence.

I don't know if Ah Biao has refined a hundred-foot essence these days. Xia Gui remembered that before he left, Ah Biao had almost completed the task.

If Gu Li hadn't imposed a ban on Xia Gui, Xia Gui could go back to the northern base and inquire about the progress of refining the hundred-foot concentration soul essence.

However, herein lies the problem.

He can't get out now.

The next day, Xia Gui went to the entrance of the northern base again, and looked around routinely to see if he could find an acquaintance to help bring a message to Ah Biao.

When Xia Guidong looked around, the two guards spotted him, smiled at him, and then said, "My lord, there is a letter from you." ”

"My letter?" Xia Gui was a little surprised.

He took a letter from the guard, completely sealed with a wax seal.

The letter still has a dark fragrance, and it seems to be the handwriting of some nobleman. Judging from the completely sealed wax seal, no one had opened the letter, and the guards did not dare to open it.

"Who gave it to me?" Xia Gui asked.

The guard salivated and smiled, "The Thirteenth Lady personally handed it over to the adult, and she also said that she would come over in the afternoon to see if there was any reply from the adult." ”

No wonder this group of subordinates didn't dare to fool around, it turned out to be a letter handed over by Aunt Thirteen herself.

What is this woman looking for herself? Xia Gui was a little puzzled in his heart.

He went into the shadows and opened the letter.

The letter was written in four words, written in small characters of seal flowers, but the content made Xia Gui's hand tremble slightly.

"Weng Peng didn't lift it. ”

A cool breath rose from his chest.

Even the thirteenth aunt wrote to inform herself that Weng Peng did not mention it, and it seems that this matter is not a rumor.

Why was this woman so kind to inform herself? Obviously, this woman was not stupid, and knew that they were already on a thief ship. If the ghost marquis finds out that Xia Gui is lying, the thirteenth aunt will not be able to justify this matter.

This woman probably didn't know this secret when she was at the scene, after all, this is Weng Peng's own personal secret, and Weng Peng is not a famous person, and rumors about him will not reach the ears of the thirteenth aunt. So this woman didn't know the details of Weng Peng at that time, and she cooperated with Xia Gui to complete that play.

When she went back, she found someone to find out the relevant news, and only then did she realize the seriousness of the matter. But the matter has been made, and there is no other way than to ventilate the news. The only time she was looking forward to it was to seal her mouth, trying not to let such rumors reach the ears of the ghost marquis.

A gloomy look passed over Xia Gui's face.

Now, all kinds of evidence show that it is a fact that Weng Peng did not cite it.

The thirteenth aunt chose to report the news out of trust in herself, and further looked forward to Xia Gui's reply.

On the ghost marquis's side, there will be thirteen aunts to deal with. And what he wants to solve now is the big trouble of Gu Li.

"Wait......"

Xia Gui suddenly thought of something.

Yes, this woman and herself are on the same thief ship!

Since she would write to inform herself, she didn't want it to be a big deal. At this juncture, if she offered any help, she would probably do her best to complete it.

On Xia Gui's gloomy face, a glimmer of hope was born. He was worried that he could not find the messenger, and now the messenger appeared.

Xia Gui quickly walked into the stone room and wrote a reply:

"Give the spiritual liquid to Ah Biao and ask him to give me the agreed things as soon as possible. As soon as the stuff is in hand, everything will be settled. ”

After the letter and the spiritual liquid were sealed, Xia Gui handed it over to the guard at the door.

This is Xia Gui's last hope, whether he can survive this battle depends on whether these letters can be properly handled.

......

In the afternoon, Aunt Thirteen picked up the letter as promised.

It's just that it's more difficult to wait for her reply.

The days of Xia Gui in the stone chamber can be described as years of life.

He was worried that this matter would be leaked out, and the more people knew about it, the more difficult it would be for the matter to end. But fortunately, Aunt Thirteen is quite powerful, and no one is looking for trouble with Xia Gui.

The timing of the next reply is uncertain.

Aunt Thirteen needs to pick up the letter first, and then find Ah Biao. After Ah Biao got the letter, he needed to refine the hundred-foot essence, so he also needed to wait for a long time.

Gu Li is like a fierce tiger ready to move, and he will show his minions at any time. He hasn't made a move yet, he must be waiting for the best time. The daily elixir was still delivered, and there was no shortage of catties because of doubts about Xia Gui's motives. But Xia Gui didn't think this was a good thing, on the contrary, Gu Li was probably finding the best time.

Now, Xia Gui can only let go of his uneasiness and carefully polish his other abilities.

Two more days passed.

Xia Gui came to the gate of the base as usual, and after the guards on both sides saw him, they smiled at him, "My lord, there is a reply from you." ”

Hearing this, an excitement rose from the depths of my heart, a nervous emotion full of anticipation and fear of loss. Xia Gui tried his best to restrain his emotions, and lowered his voice and said, "Show me." ”

His gaze did not take a moment off the hands of the two guards. But the guard took out a tightly wrapped silk from his bosom, and the four corners of the silk were sealed with wax seals. From the outside, the silk is cylindrical, and something should be wrapped inside.

Xia Gui visually inspected the shape of this object, this shape was too familiar to him!

Judging by the appearance alone, this must be the shape of a potion.

"Thank you. Xia Gui took the silk from the guard's hand and smiled.

Through the silk, my fingers felt the things wrapped inside, and it was really a porcelain bottle!

A porcelain vase, this is great news.

If it is two or three porcelain vases, then it may mean that the refining has not been successful.

And a porcelain bottle, that means that the two bottles of spiritual liquid sent before have been perfectly fused and refined, and finally formed this hundred-foot concentration of soul essence!

Xia Gui swallowed his saliva and moistened his throat, which was thirsty from excitement and anticipation. His voice was even a little thirsty, "Does anyone else know about sending a letter?"

The two guards shook their heads, "No. The Thirteenth Lady said that she was very grateful to the adults for saving her, but in order to avoid rumors from the outside world, let us keep quiet. ”
