Chapter 295: Unknown Strange Things
The thought of this man coming out of the fireworks field made her feel that this guy was very dirty, and she deliberately kept her distance from him. As a result, Qi Qi in the God and Demon Prison was disappointed: "It turns out that Lord White Tiger didn't go to find a woman either?"
Ning Xiaoxian was stunned, sniffed lightly twice, his body was very clean, and he really didn't smell the unique thick fat powder smell in the Red Factory. In other words, what is Qi Qi disappointed? So what did the white tiger do this night?
Although her action was small, the white tiger who was eating noodles had already caught it keenly, and glanced at her with a smile.
Well, everyone has a secret, let alone this old monster who has lived for tens of thousands of years?
After dinner, she found a secluded and uninhabited place, and threw the white tiger into the Gods and Demons Prison and Changtiankan Mountain. The two of them haven't seen each other for 30,000 years, and she believes that without her presence, the two have topics to talk about. As for her, there are more important things to do.
Wufu in the west of the city lost a third son, and no one in the whole house, from Master Wu to the sweeping boy, took this seriously. The reason is also very simple, Wu Sanye often attracts friends and does not return at night, and the family still thinks that he is now trapped in a gentle township and has never come out, so naturally he will not be in a hurry. Only the old man guarding the door vaguely remembered that Sanshao hadn't gone out since he came back last night, but he was also very old, so he thought he slept again last night.
Not long after dawn, Master Wu woke up in the seventh aunt's room, and the maid hurriedly stepped forward to serve and wash and change clothes. He rubbed several handfuls of oil in a row, and made Xiao Nizi's face red, and then walked into the study refreshed.
He took a sip of the hot tea on the table, and someone on the side smiled and said, "Master Wu is so comfortable." β
It's early in the morning. There was someone in the study! His hands shook in fright, and the cup shattered on the floor. Everyone in the house knows that no idlers in Master Wu's study are allowed to approach. So most of the people who can appear here quietly are not good.
"Who!" he cried out, and then he saw a young girl standing in the corner of the study, taking a book from the shelf and looking at it, wondering why he hadn't noticed her when he first entered the study. The woman stood in front of the huge bookshelf looking petite and fragile, but he smelled danger for no reason.
"Master Wu doesn't have to shout so loudly. She smiled and groaned, "I planted the barrier. If you just shout out your voice, the people around you will only think that you are reading quietly in the study as an old man. β
This woman is a monk. Master Wu's upper body was slightly owed, and his waist was quietly leaning back. On his face, he said in fear: "The immortal has arrived, but there is a place for the little old man to serve?"
Ning Xiaoxian snorted slightly: "Master Wu's right hand in his sleeve don't touch the mechanism on the Bogu shelf, even if it helps me a lot." The entire study was shrouded in her divine sense, and the small movements behind Master Wu's back couldn't hide from her.
Master Wu's face froze. The speed of the hand has increased. Before he could press the button, he felt a flower in front of him, and the woman was already approaching him, and there was a cold touch on the fingers of his right hand.
If he had been replaced by another youkai or monk, he might have cut off his finger bones. Ning Xiao was kind-hearted, and only used the back of the fanged knife against his fingers. Rao was like this, he was so shocked that his face turned pale, and he didn't dare to move anymore.
She gently pulled Master Wu's claws away from the mechanism. Shen said: "You know that I am an immortal cultivator, and you dare to press this switch without fear." Could it be that this is the agency that can send out a warning signal to notify the Valley of Worship?" As soon as she said the words "Valley of Worship", Master Wu's pupils shrank, and he only listened to her continue, "No. Far water can't save the near fire, and you still have something in this organ that can deal with monks?"
Master Wu didn't dare to speak.
Ning Xiaoxian said: "Show me the things you handed over to the Valley of Worship Fire." β
Old Man Wu was shocked, raised his head and said, "Shangxian, I don't know what Fire Worship Valley is!"
"Then why did your heart beat twice faster and your back was sweating when you first heard these three words?"
"That's because," he said, "That's because ...... Because ......"
She took out her fangs: "Time is precious. Well, I'll count down to five, and if you don't open the compartment, I'll chop off one of your fingers. Then count down to five and chop another finger. If Master Wu is tough enough, he can probably hold on until I finish chopping your toes to make up the numbers. β
There weren't many clues she got from the giant ape, so she planned to try her luck from Master Wu. It seems that Master Wu really keeps in touch with the Valley of Worship.
She stroked her chin and showed a smile that had beaten the demon in Master Wu's eyes: "I want to think about it, which finger to chop first?
Master Wu is obviously not a tough person, so when Ning Xiaoxian put his fangs on his fingers, which were whiter than a woman's, and counted down to three, he simply followed.
He walked to the bookcase that Ning Xiaoxian was leaning on just now, reached out and knocked three clicks of different lengths on the second row of shelves, and then turned a tiger-shaped paperweight, and the bookcase silently parted from the middle and slid to the sides, revealing a small door on the wall.
He was standing in front of him, so he didn't see Ning Xiaoxian's surprised gaze. This small door seemed too familiar to her, it was simply the safe door of the future, except that the mechanism on it was different from the digital combination lock of the safe. The small door is made of unknown metal, and there is a small ancient seal in the lower left corner. This mark, she had just seen last night.
Changtian said: "Like the god-shaking thunder in the hands of the spirit ape, this thing is also made by the Qianjintang." β
It's getting more and more interesting. The things in the Qianjin Hall are scarce and expensive, and they are all hot among immortal cultivators, how can they appear in the homes of mortals for nothing?" She commanded in a low voice, quietly avoiding the front and leaning slightly to the right.
Master Wu was tinkering in the mechanism on the door, and blocked it with his own body, apparently because he didn't want her to see the mystery. It's a pity that he doesn't know that under the shroud of divine thoughts, there is nothing to hide.
With a click, the door opened. Before she could speak, Master Wu seemed to inadvertently turn to the side, and an arrow in his sleeve shot out from inside the small door, nailing it to the opposite wall with a snort. As the arrow flew, she smelled a faint fishy smell, apparently the tip of the arrow was coated with poison, and it was very likely that this poison would also be effective on the monk.
Master Wu let out a soft "ah", hurriedly looked back, and saw her standing on the spot with a trace of disappointment in his eyes, but he cried and said with a sad face: "Don't blame the immortals, the mechanism in this treasure box was really accidentally touched by me!"
Ning Xiaoxian sighed and said, "I know, I forgive you." In other words, you are much more daring than your son. β
What's wrong with his son? Master Wu was finally shocked, and was about to speak, when Ning Xiaoxian waved his hand at him, he couldn't move, and his throat muscles were so stiff that he couldn't say a word, but his eyes were full of pleading.
But she was impatient with the old man playing with her, so she stepped forward and opened the door of the treasure guard, and took out the contents one by one and flipped through them.
First of all, there are several stacks of thick silver tickets, as well as gold leaves, large ingots and silver nuggets and jewelry, with a total face value of about more than one million taels, it seems that the Wu family's business is not small. She now has a high horizon, and she can't afford this little money, so she just puts it all aside and goes to the next thing.
The second thing is an account book, on which all the records are records of the Wu government offering bribes and asking officials for alcohol on a certain year, month and day. There has been collusion between officials and businessmen in Henggu, and she is not very interested.
This is followed by a booklet, neatly written in small letters. She flipped through a few pages casually, and the casual expression on her face was put away, and when she looked back, she became more and more frightened.
This booklet turned out to be a fairly complete piece of information, with detailed records of personnel changes in the state, county, and government within the state, as well as the movements of the sects that ruled the state. You must know that this state is under the jurisdiction of Fengtianfu! The intelligence even recorded the news of where Miluo's cronies had been haunting recently.
She frowned. The territory of the Valley of Worship Fire is thousands of miles away, and what is it doing to secretly let the mortals of this state investigate the movements of Fengtianfu? Besides, Miluo itself is an intelligence chief, and his counter-reconnaissance ability is powerful, no matter who wants to investigate Fengtianfu, this is an extremely dangerous thing.
It's a pity that she didn't see the echo Gu that Miluo planted on mortals, otherwise she would have known that the most well-informed people in this world are the huge number of mortals. As long as the immortal cultivator comes into contact with mortals, many secrets will not be hidden. The Valley of Worship Fire is just asking the mortal land snake here to help.
The last thing in the crate was a slender strip of stone, not much thicker than a toothpick, less than half a finger long, sandwiched between a pile of papers. If it weren't for her good eyesight, she would have almost missed it.
But when she picked up the stone, her body suddenly became hot, and it was the Soul Eater Needle that emitted extreme excitement.
The Soul Eater Needle is a stuffy treasure, and what can make it exciting must also be a treasure. She asked Master Wu, "What is this?"
Master Wu immediately found that he could speak, and quickly explained, "I don't know either. This is an ancestral thing, the purpose is unknown, and it was originally offered in my family's ancestral hall. After the ancestral hall was hit by fire the year before last, I was afraid that this thing would be too small and lost, so I moved it to the treasure crate. β
There was a look of gloom on his face. When the information booklet was seen by the nun, he was completely passive. Ning Xiaoxian understood what he was thinking, and said with a smile: "I see that you still have a lot of gold and silver in the treasure chest. It seems that you don't plan to serve the Fire Valley to the end. Are you planning to flee with the money as soon as the wind blows?" "Only those who are ready to flee at all times will have these hard currencies ready for use on the road."
Master Wu was silent. Ning Xiaoxian sighed: "You are too naΓ―ve. The Valley of Worship didn't intend to let you get out of the way from the beginning. The trap you just sneaked up on and wanted to press, have you tried its power before?"
Master Wu shook his head: "No." The great immortals of the Valley of Worship Fire said that this thing could only be used once and then it would fail, so I should not touch it when I have nothing to do. (To be continued......)
