V72 Scavenging for treasure
"Crazy grandpa, Grandma Rukawa and Grandpa Sakuragi, they were all burned to death by fire......"
Ye Gufeng looked at Yun Xiaomo, whose eyes were red and swollen from crying, he was very distressed, and this kid didn't know how long he endured it, until he found him, he was full of anger and grief before he broke out at once.
Holding the little man in his arms, Ye Gufeng gently stroked him and comforted: "Little girl, the world is impermanent, you have to learn to adapt and face it." They were all good people in life, and they will also receive good retribution after death and ascend to Elysium, so you don't have to be too sad, maybe they are happier now than they were when they were alive. ”
"Really, but when they died, they screamed so miserably. ”
"Yes, it will! Don't you believe Crazy Grandpa's words?"
Yun Xiaomo sniffed and nodded: "Well, but that palace master is good or bad, he burned down Uncle Liuchuan and their house, and now they have no place to live." What can I do to help them?"
Ye Gufeng pondered for a while, if he didn't let the little obedient do something, I was afraid that he would never be able to let go of this matter, so he said: "If they want to rebuild their homes, they will inevitably need silver, why don't we send them some silver together, what do you think?"
When Yun Xiaomo heard this, his black eyes flashed, and he nodded frequently: "Okay, then I'll give them all the silver and treasures on my body!"
He touched the storage ring on his hand, and was ready to give it all away.
Ye Gufeng curled his lips and smiled slightly, it was rare to see the little money fan so generous, and he was also very pleased, at least he understood that some things were far more important than money.
Rubbing his head, he smiled mysteriously and said, "Of course the silver is to be given, but you don't have to take out the silver on your own body." ”
"Who's that?" Yun Xiaomo's black pupils shone again, if he could give the silver without having to pay the silver himself, it would naturally be the best thing.
"Guess what?" Night Lone Wind smiled even more mysteriously.
Yun Xiaomo seemed to have an understanding, glanced at him, and smiled slyly at each other.
At this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and the figure of the night lone wind flickered and disappeared suddenly.
Yun Xiaomo looked left and right, and couldn't help but exclaim, when will he become as powerful as his crazy grandfather?
"Xiaomo, I'm Elder Fu. There was a knock on the door.
Yun Xiaomo opened his calves and went to open the door: "Elder Fu is good." Xiaokou pouted slightly, blamed him for his deception, and said that when he entered the Holy Palace, he took him and Xiaobai to Longchi, but he couldn't even see a figure, and he had a lot of resentment in his heart.
"Xiaomo, what's wrong with you? What's going on?Why are your eyes red?Are you crying?" Elder Fu saw his strangeness at a glance and asked with concern.
Yun Xiaomo sniffed and said, "I miss my father and mother, I want to go home." ”
Elder Fu breathed a sigh of relief, after all, he was still a child, and he was homesick after only a few days of coming.
"Well, when you get used to life here, you won't be homesick anymore. Elder Fu bent over and rubbed his head, he still really liked this smart and kind child. Every time he looked at him, he was reminded of the former Heavenly Dragon Venerable, and he didn't know if the palace master would treat him differently and focus on cultivating him after seeing him?
"Xiaomo, tomorrow the palace master wants to see you, you should show yourself well at that time, if the palace master is satisfied, your status in the holy palace will be very different in the future. ”
"But I don't know how to speak the holy language yet......" Yun Xiaomo was inexplicably disgusted when he heard the word palace master, thinking that he burned an entire street and residential area so ruthlessly, there was a faint hatred in his heart.
"It's okay, I believe the palace master can understand. You just need to look good as usual, the old man is very optimistic about you and will help you on the side. ”
At this time, a voice faintly came into Yun Xiaomo's ears, Yun Xiaomo was slightly stunned, and said: "Elder Fu, I am so bored in the small courtyard, I want to go to other places for a walk, but the people outside are guarding and not letting me out." Can you talk to the people outside so that I can go out for a walk often?"
Elder Fu was slightly surprised, lowered his eyebrows and thought for a while, took out a sign from his arms, and said, "This is a common token, if you want to go out, just show it." But you have to remember not to run around, the palace is heavily guarded, and if you accidentally trespass into some important places, you will be punished. In this way, the old man told you a good place to go, and after you went out, you went west, until the end, and there was a garden. You can go fluttering butterflies and catch birds, but you don't want to go anywhere else, do you hear me?"
The corners of Yun Xiaomo's mouth twitched, fluttering butterflies and catching birds? He is not a person of three or four years old, and he still plays such a childish game?
However, he nodded and gave him a promise that as long as he had the token, he could go wherever he wanted, and who could stop him?
The corners of his lips rose slightly, and he was quite happy.
Elder Fu said a few more words, and then left the room to visit the other two children.
Night Lonely Wind appeared again, took the token from Yun Xiaomo's hand and looked at it, nodded with satisfaction: "Very good! With it, let's go get the silver tonight." ”
Yun Xiaomo smiled heartily, and the haze in his heart was suddenly swept away.
At the right time, a ship appeared in the waters of the holy island, and the guards blocking the island were alert and lined up. The palace master has ordered that this is a sensitive period, and no one is allowed to enter or leave the holy island.
Now suddenly a ship came, and they couldn't help but be sensitive.
When the ship slowly docked, the guards stepped forward with weapons and asked in a cold voice, "Who is here?"
There were not many people on the ship, dressed in uniform as disciples of the Holy Palace, and when they heard someone ask, they all turned their heads to look at the cabin, as if they were waiting for someone to answer the question in person.
Seeing that no one answered, the guards said, "The palace master has ordered that no one will be allowed to enter or leave the holy island for a day as long as the assassins on the island are not caught. You should go back and forth wherever you want, otherwise, we will not blame us for being polite, and we will take you all down on the charge of collaborating with the enemy. ”
When the disciples on the ship heard this, they couldn't help but get anxious, and someone knocked on the door of the cabin, wanting to ask the superiors what they meant. After knocking for a long time without the slightest movement, the disciples pushed open the hatch together, only to see the drunk elder, so they shouted to him vigorously, trying to wake him up.
No one noticed that a black shadow floated out of the cabin and went ashore without noticing.
As for the ship and the people on board, they eventually returned the same way and did not let any of them enter the holy island.
A qiē is still calm as usual.
In the dead of night, there were two figures, one large and one small, walking through the holy palace like ghosts, and the sound of beating the watch was knocked a second time, and the night was even deeper.
"Crazy grandpa, have you arrived?"
"Come on, just around the corner. ”
The two quickened their pace.
"Stop!" a voice came from a distance behind them, and the two quickly dodged and hid in the grass.
Night Lonely Wind wondered, how could they be so cautious and alarm others?
Following the prestige, in the night, by the moonlight, a girl's figure could be faintly seen.
"Crazy grandpa, it's Jian'er! Is she following us?" Yun Xiaomo recognized the girl's figure at a glance.
"It's possible. "Night Lonely Wind secretly felt to herself, this girl is really not simple, she was able to follow them for so long, but she was not discovered by them, which shows her cleverness. It's a pity that her kung fu is still a little worse, and when she passes through the relatively open corridor, she is still discovered by the patrolling disciples.
"Who are you, do you know that you can't just trespass in the Sacred Palace?" the patrol disciple's tone was very stern.
Xuanyuan didn't show a panicked look, she calmed her mind and said, "I am a holy child selected by the Holy Palace, and I may become the heir of the Holy Palace Venerable after tomorrow, as a member of the Holy Palace, should I care about the safety of the Holy Palace?"
"What does this have to do with your wandering around at night?"
"Of course it does! I just saw a dark shadow running in this direction, and I was afraid that he was the assassin who trespassed into the dragon pool last time, so I followed him to see what was going on. Well, now that you've bothered me like this, people have run away. Xuanyuan was right, her face was not red and she was not panting.
"Is this really the case, or are you making it up?" the patrol disciple was a little unconvinced.
"If you don't believe it, forget it, then I'll go back first, and you can patrol slowly. Xuanyuan turned around gracefully and stepped on the lotus step.
The patrol disciple was slightly stunned, and then reacted, daring to love that he was tricked by a little girl tonight! Forget it, but she is just a little girl, and she can't poke any basket, at most she is curious, so she is running around. Ignoring her, the disciple continued to patrol elsewhere.
Not long after he left, Xuanyuan's departing figure turned back again, quickly crossed the corridor, and continued to tiptoe forward.
Behind the grass, Ye Gufeng and Yun Xiaomo paced out, looking at Xuanyuan Jian'er's figure gradually walking away, and glanced at each other, each thinking about it.
"This little girl is really not simple, she has so many thoughts!"
"Let's go, let's take a detour to the treasure house. ”
Xuanyuan walked forward for a long time, and could no longer find any trace of Yun Xiaomo and the others, she stomped her feet, and couldn't help but feel annoyed. Seeing them sneakily out of the courtyard, she was curious, since Yun Xiaomo disappeared mysteriously for a day, she had noticed that something was wrong. They didn't want to say anything, so she had to check it herself, so she followed their footsteps. Who knew that as soon as the patrolling disciples stirred up, they would no longer be able to catch up.
There was no way, for fear of being found again, so she had to tiptoe back to the yard.
The treasure house of the Holy Palace is more heavily guarded, but for Night Lonely Wind, entering the treasure house is like entering a no-man's land.
Yun Xiaomo only saw Ye Gufeng raise his hand, and the dozen or so guards guarding the door of the treasure house were all frozen, and they all turned their backs to them, neatly and orderly.
Two people, one large and one small, strode past the guards, took the key from the guards, and opened the door and entered the treasury.
"Wow, there are so many treasures!" Yun Xiaomo was dazzled, his eyes were full of stars, it was worthy of being the treasure house of the Holy Palace, it was at least ten times larger than the treasure house he saw in the Treasure Hall in the past, and the treasures stored were several times more precious.
"Little girl, hurry up and do it, how much can you take. ”
"But what do I want?"
Seeing him so wealth-obsessed, Ye Gufeng couldn't help but smile.
"Then move them all!"
"Well, move it all! Whoever let the palace master be so bad, he burned down Uncle Rukawa's house, he should make compensation!"
Yun Xiaomo no longer hesitated, and hurriedly opened the storage ring and filled the treasures into it one by one.
Xiaobai was not idle, or with its head, or with its plump little buttocks, to put one treasure after another into the storage ring.
One person and one pet are very busy.
Unfortunately, people only have two hands, and it is really unrealistic to want to empty an entire treasure house.
It didn't take long for Yun Xiaomo to be tired, holding a half-human-tall golden Buddha, he
"Crazy grandpa, I'm so tired, I can't move. ”
Ye Gufeng looked at one person and one pet with a smile, and he didn't plan to help, because he could see that the two of them seemed to be having a good time. Now seeing that they were tired and begging for mercy, he smiled brightly and his sleeves danced with it.
"Little girl, hold the storage ring in your hand high above your head, and grandpa will help you. ”
Yun Xiaomo did not hesitate at all, and obediently did so. He had two storage rings on two different hands, and he raised his hands above his head and looked up, wondering what the mad grandfather could do to quickly empty the entire treasury.
Under his astonished gaze, with the dancing sleeves of the Night Lonely Wind Robe, all the treasures of the entire treasure house seemed to be mounted on their legs, one after another, automatically smashed towards his head, so frightened that he hurriedly squatted down, only the small hands above his head were still above his head and did not move.
Something even more miraculous happened again, and although each treasure fell in the direction of his head, none of them fell on his body, but obediently burrowed into the storage ring in his hand.
It's amazing!
Yun Xiaomo's eyes widened with curiosity, watching the treasures in the treasure house rapidly shrink and become empty, and his mood became more and more happy.
Hmph, bad palace master, just take all your treasures and make you cry to death!
Before dawn, the palace master had already received bad news in the dormitory, and he rushed to the scene in disheveled clothes, looking at the empty treasure house, his eyes turned red. There was not even a single treasure in the treasure house, but the smell of copper belonging to gold and silver was left.
"Say, who did it?" The palace master was furious, he had searched for so many treasures, and they were all empty overnight, how could he accept such a big blow?
"If you go back to the palace master, your subordinates will be clicked by the person who came, and you will turn your subordinates back, and your subordinates won't be able to see who the person is at all. It's just that there are two of them who heard the footsteps, so the subordinates guessed that there must have been two people who came to steal the treasure of the treasure trove this time. ”
"Yes, yes, I also heard two footsteps, one heavy and the other light. ”
Several people knew that they could not escape the responsibility, and they vigorously explained and explained, hoping that the palace master could open up and punish them lightly.
"Palace Master, look! There is a small footprint here, which looks like a child. Elder Gu, who was in charge of the security of the Holy Palace, suddenly shouted.
Everyone went to take a look, and sure enough, it was a child's footprint.
"If we take the footprints and compare them, we will surely find out who stole the treasure trove. ”
"Child?" the palace master's eyes narrowed, and he shouted coldly, "Quickly gather all the children in the holy palace, and this palace will personally screen them!
Elder Gu immediately received the order and said, "Yes, palace master, my subordinates will definitely arrest these two thieves!"
As the palace master angrily shook his sleeves and left, the people gathered outside the treasure house also dispersed, and Elder Gu squatted alone to collect footprints. There was a sudden gust of wind behind him, and before he knew it, he was unconscious.
The theft of the treasure house caused an uproar in the Holy Palace, and everyone talked about it at the same time, but also panicked. If this is the case, then aren't they in danger of their lives? How can these thieves be his opponents?
After Yun Xiaomo returned to the small courtyard, he had not slept all night, and before he could recover from the excitement of searching for treasures, he heard the chaotic movement outside.
"Xiaomo, come out quickly! Senior Brother Cheng asked us to gather and go to see the palace master. Outside the door came Xuanyuan's voice.
"Here it is. ”
When Yun Xiaomo came to the door, Xuanyuan Xuan'er and Ximen Xuanfeng were already dressed neatly and changed into the most solemn clothes, obviously attaching great importance to today's meeting, Yun Xiaomo was dressed more casually, anyway, he was originally a commoner, even if it was the identity of the prince and the little prince, he was not born with it, so he didn't care at all, and he didn't take himself seriously at all.
As my mother said, as long as you feel that you are noble, then you are noble.
Having a noble heart is far more important than having countless noble identities.
Cheng Qi glanced at him disdainfully, just by looking at the clothes on his body, he knew that he had no identity background, no identity background, no matter how capable you were, it would be in vain. He didn't believe that the palace master would choose such a stinky boy as him, who had no background, and gave up the other two children who were princesses and princes.
"Two little masters, let's hurry up, if it's late, we'll be scolded. "Cheng Qi is a typical villain who tends to be inflammatory, and his attitude towards Xuanyuan Jian'er and Ximen Xuanfeng is obviously a lot more courteous.
Ximen Xuanfeng had always been silent, ignored him, and walked forward, while Xuanyuan Xuan'er walked to Yun Xiaomo's side and walked with him.
Cheng Qi was bored, smiled bitterly, and had no choice but to follow.
When they came to the main hall, the entire hall was already full of people, standing on both sides were figures above the elder level of the Holy Palace, the Supreme Elders were in front, the elders were in the back, and in the center of the main hall gathered dozens of children, as young as five or six years old, as old as thirteen or fourteen years old, some of them were the introductory disciples of the Holy Palace, some were the families of the disciples of the Holy Palace and the elders, and the real new introductory disciples were only Yun Xiaomo and the three of them.
The whole hall looks solemn, which makes people feel a kind of awe, and they dare not make mistakes at will.
Before Yun Xiaomo entered the door, he found Ye Gufeng's Cun Zài in the crowd of onlookers outside, and the other party gave him a reassuring look, signaling that he didn't have to worry, even if there was really something, there was a crazy grandfather to carry him. In this way, Yun Xiaomo was really completely relaxed.
In the crowd on both sides of the main hall, there was a pair of eyes that were firmly watching him, and Yun Xiaomo felt it strongly, and when he turned his head to look for it, he found that the line of sight had disappeared. He only thought that Elder Fu was watching him, because among the many people above the elder level in the Holy Palace, he only knew Elder Fu.
"The palace master has arrived!"
Originally, there was still a little bit of discussion in the hall, but at this moment it was silent, and everyone bowed their heads to welcome the arrival of the palace master.
"Participate in the palace master!"
The brown robe swirled in an arc in the air, and the palace master sat down majestically, he glanced at the dozens of disciples in the center of the main hall, and said, "Are all the children here?"
His gaze was sharp, and as far as the eye could see, the children lowered their heads one after another, not daring to look at him.
Yun Xiaomo stood at the back of the line, plus he was the youngest and the shortest, so it was difficult to be discovered, and he couldn't see the situation above.
After the elder replied, the palace master began to reprimand everyone for their negligence, using holy language, Yun Xiaomo didn't understand it at all, and his two eyes were looking around boredly. In the crowd, that gaze swept towards him again, and this time, he felt it keenly, and quickly turned his head to find it.
Hey, who is he, and why is he staring at me all the time?
Yun Xiaomo looked at one of them, his mouth slightly clouded, revealing a puzzled look.
The man smiled at him, a kind smile, and a reassuring smile. Yun Xiaomo was even more puzzled, but he still tugged at the corner of his lips and returned the other party with a cute smile.
"Xiaomo, do you know him, who is he?" Xuanyuan noticed his abnormality and couldn't help but ask curiously.
Yun Xiaomo shook his head honestly: "I don't know." ”
At this time, the palace master ordered Elder Gu to take out the rubbings of the footprints found in the treasure house, and then asked each child to print their own footprints on the white cloth in turn for comparison.
Yun Xiaomo saw that the man retracted his gaze, turned around and replied to the palace master, only then did he know that he was Elder Gu.
"Xiaomo, what do they want to do, why do they let us step on the footprints one by one?"
"Who knows. Although Yun Xiaomo shook his head, he couldn't help but be vigilant in his heart, could it be that when he stole the treasures of the treasure vault last night, what clues did he leave behind?
Subconsciously, he turned his head and looked outside the door of the main hall, trying to find the traces of Night Lonely Wind from the crowd. Unfortunately, he didn't find it.
Where did the mad grandpa go?
Yun Xiaomo was a little flustered in his heart, but nothing appeared on his face.
