Volume 1 Riding a horse leaning on a bridge, full of red sleeves Chapter 226 A skeleton
Yipu has eighteen branches in Tiandu, the layout is exactly the same, and even the appearance of the people in the shop is somewhat similar, people are often confused, so they are distinguished by one to eighteen.
The eighth easy shop in the west of the city is at the end of a commercial street, the traditional three-story wooden and stone building, because of the age, I don't know how many times the paint has been painted shows a dark color, especially in such a rainy night.
Boss Zhou of Yipu is quite tall, but he is not thin, and he feels like a large water tank. This body shape gives people a sense of oppression, but the smile on his face all year round still makes people feel kind.
The black caftan is not a bit variegated, and in the case of weak lighting, it is not easy to find such an adult.
There was a knock on the door, and Boss Zhou responded, "Please come in." β
It was not the first time Lu Jiuqian had come to Yipu, but he still looked around, and then looked at Boss Zhou.
"I wonder if the guest pawns or redeems something?" asked Boss Zhou calmly.
"Buying something. β
Boss Zhou looked at Lu Jiuqian, after all, there were still a few people who came to the pawnshop to buy things, and asked, "I don't know what I like in the shop?"
"A skeleton. Lu Jiuqian didn't want to go around either, so he said directly.
Boss Zhou thought for a while and asked, "There are a lot of bone shops, I don't know ......."
"About the Blood Witch God. β
Boss Zhou shook his head and said with a smile: "The small shop doesn't have the bones that the guest officer wants, and I haven't heard of any blood witch gods. β
Lu Jiuqian took out a quaint jade plate and put it in front of Boss Zhou.
Boss Zhou glanced at the jade plate, then at Lu Jiuqian, didn't ask any more, turned around and walked towards a secret room, and said, "Mr. Lao Fu come with me." β
Open the chamber through a trap, which is filled with bookshelves and boxes of all kinds. Walking further inside, Boss Zhou opened the mechanism hidden on the cabinet, and a formation plate about the gossip of the five elements appeared on one wall. Boss Zhou first put on a special bronze key, and after the array disk rotated for a while, he adjusted the array plate again, and a stone door slowly opened, revealing the corridor inside, because the light was too dim, he couldn't see how long it was.
Such a cumbersome way of opening is naturally to ensure that the things here are not stolen.
"Please. Boss Zhou made a gesture of please, and Lu Jiuqian walked into the corridor with him.
As one walked into the corridor, the hedron embedded in the wall gradually lit up, then extinguished, always illuminating a two-step space.
Boss Zhou walked to a wall, put his hand on the stone wall, and after the temperature of his hand was the same as the temperature of the stone wall, he actually stretched his hand completely into the stone wall, and when he stretched it back, a black box with the height of the same person appeared.
Lu Jiuqian's expression did not change, and he was slightly surprised in his heart. It looks like a corridor around it, but in fact, there are storage compartments all on the top, bottom, left and right, but the walls are sealed in a special way. In this way, the space can be used efficiently, after all, it is enough to hollow out half the street, and there must be no more space.
The road is so long, I don't know how many things are stored in it, so you can imagine how big the business of Yipu is. And Boss Zhou of Yipu actually brought Lu Jiuqian in, and he didn't take precautions, which shows how confident Yipu is. Such a pawnshop has such power, and those forces that have not been shown in front of the public are even more impossible.
"Please. Boss Zhou continued to walk forward, about ten steps away, came to a narrow stone room, put the black box on the stone table, erased the runes engraved on it, and opened the box.
Unlike the outside, the stone chamber is full of light enough to see something as thin as a hair.
Lu Jiuqian looked at this very ordinary skeleton and didn't find anything abnormal.
Boss Zhou's fingertips condensed vitality, formed a needle-shaped, pierced into the phalanges of the corpse, cut it out, put it in his hand and twisted it gently, and became powder. Immediately afterwards, Boss Zhou took out a transparent bottle filled with water and poured the powder into the water. After a while, the water took on a faint red color.
"Sir is an expert, so I don't need to say more about what this means. "That bottle of water is not ordinary water, but a special potion that can test the blood spirit.
Lu Jiuqian stared at the bottle of water and took out a small bottle from his arms.
Boss Zhou handed over the bottle of water, and Lu Jiuqian immediately poured the powder in the vial into the water.
In an instant, the water boiled and turned into oozing blood red in an instant. The boiling water intensified and splashed out, as if it would blow up the vial in the next moment.
As soon as the vitality in Lu Jiuqian's hand was released, the vial regained its calm, but the blood red color did not recede. He looked at the vial in his hand, and there was not the slightest change of emotion on his face.
A hint of discoloration flashed in Boss Zhou's eyes, and he said: "Mr. is really an expert, and the experiment with 'microworms' is really eye-opening for me." β
What Lu Jiuqian poured into the bottle just now was not powder, but tiny insects, as soon as these insects entered the bottle, they received the stimulation of bone meal, and they devoured each other, and then there was a boiling scene.
"Price?" Nan Xing was right, if he could study the power contained in this corpse, he would indeed be able to make the "Blood Witch God" go further. No matter what price the other party offers, Lu Jiuqian is bound to buy it.
"It's something someone else has left here. Boss Zhou paused for a moment, and found that Lu Jiuqian's face did not change at all, knowing that the temptation of words had no effect, so he said directly: "But the owner of this thing said that as long as there are three generations of insects of the 'worm nest', they can be exchanged." β
There was a slight coldness in Lu Jiuqian's eyes, and he smiled: "Yi Pu is really hand-eyed, and he can even inquire about the 'worm nest' clearly. To tell the truth, there are indeed three generations of insects in the bottom, but there is still a condition in the next. β
Boss Zhou's expression moved when he heard this, he didn't expect that the other party would really take out the three generations of insects in exchange, and he couldn't help but feel a little suspicious in his heart, but he also smiled: "As long as it is within the ability of the small store, there will be a response." β
"I wonder where this corpse came from?"
"Haha, this little shop doesn't know. Presumably, you are also very aware of the rules of Yipu, and have never asked customers about the source of things, only looking at the value of things. β
Lu Jiuqian looked at Boss Zhou, immediately smiled, and stopped asking. He rolled up his sleeves, and a long bag bulged out on the inside of his arm, and an inch of white snake-like worm emerged.
"This is the third generation of worms. β
Boss Zhou was slightly shocked in his heart, and then took out a cold jade box and put away the insects.
"The guest officer is really refreshing! I am most willing to deal with people like the guest officer. β
"I'm tired of the boss sealing this body for me again. β
"That's nature!" Boss Zhou put the cold jade box away, and then started to reseal the black box. It only took a moment to do all this.
Lu Jiuqian picked up the big black box, nodded at Boss Zhou and left Yipu. Boss Zhou sent it all the way to the door, and wanted to give an umbrella but was refused.
The rain hadn't stopped, and Lu Jiuqian disappeared at the end of the street with a coffin-like black box on his back.
Boss Zhou leaned against the door, picked up his hands, squinted his eyes slightly, and said to himself.
"The five realms of the southern kingdom also carry the three generations of insects of the 'worm nest' with them, and I think this should be Lu Jiuqian who came to Tiandu this time. With the ability of the southern country, the source of the corpse should be found out soon, and I don't know if the lord intentionally left such a clue. Forget it, I'm guessing here, it's just a small owner of a shop, just make a little money to support my family. β
......
When it rains, the cold in the prison is aggravated countless times, which is useless no matter how many layers of cotton clothes are wrapped, unless you throw yourself into the fire and burn your bones to ashes, you can cut off this cold.
The chains of a normal cell were opened, and a man in a black robe walked in.
Pan Yunqi's face was so withered that he couldn't see a human being, his eyes were tightly closed, he gasped for a long breath from time to time, and his body couldn't stop shaking. A rich kid can be in prison for so long, which is enough to impress the jailer. At this time, Pan Yunqi was on the verge of death. The revenge he gritted his teeth insisted on, and it seemed that there was no hope left.
The black-robed man stood for a moment, opened Pan Yunqi's mouth, and fed a crimson pill. After a while, Pan Yunqi's whole body was scarlet, and his dry skin quickly swelled up, like dead wood in spring.
Half an hour later, Pan Yunqi, who was scarlet all over, opened his eyes, his vision was covered with a thick layer of red, and all the scenery was blurred.
"Water!" A strange thirst choked Pan Yunqi's throat.
A bowl of water was delivered to Pan Yunqi's mouth, and he immediately swallowed it in a big gulp. But before he could take two sips, the bowl was removed from his mouth.
"Water!" Pan Yunqi rushed forward like crazy, but a huge force held him down, he could feel the water in his mouth, but he couldn't drink it no matter how hard he tried.
"April 17, who did you hire the old cat to kill?"
Pan Yunqi's mind was scarlet, he couldn't hear what the other party was saying at all, he just wanted to drink water.
"April 17th, who are you hiring the old cat to kill?" the black-robed man stabbed a finger into Pan Yunqi's brain.
Pan Yunqi suddenly felt a huge pain and sobered up for half a minute.
"April 17, who are you hiring the old cat to kill?" said the black-robed man in a low voice in Pan Yunqi's ear, but it was like thunder in Pan Yunqi's mind.
Pan Yunqi was full of liver and gall, thinking that it was Yan Luo's interrogation, and subconsciously wanted to say something, but found that his throat couldn't move at all. The black-robed man also noticed this, and immediately poured half a bowl of water into the other party's mouth.
"Yes......" Pan Yunqi's eyes suddenly burst, his seven orifices were bleeding, and his body had a tendency to explode.
The black-robed man immediately nodded at the back of Pan Yunqi's neck.
"Yes......"
Bang!
Suddenly, all the skin around Pan Yunqi exploded, and the flesh and blood covered the cell, leaving only a skeleton in the pool of blood.
The black-robed man stood up, instructed the people below to disturb the clean cell, and left the prison.
After shuttling through the secret passages and alleys for half an hour, the black-robed man took off the robe that covered his face, revealing his face, which was none other than Lu Jiuqian of the Southern Kingdom.
After leaving Yipu, Lu Jiuqian used a lot of strength to find out that the corpse was a killer named "Old Cat" in Tiandu, who practiced a little "demon transformation", and finally took over the business of Yicaitang, and Yicaitang is now only Pan Yunqi left. Fortunately, it was not in vain that such efforts were not wasted, and Pan Yunqi still said a name in the end.
"Sure enough, it's youβNing Du. β
