Chapter 498: Spiritual Artifacts and Tokens
"Let Cuihuan come to the secret room of the back mountain to see me. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Shi Mu walked straight in front of everyone, and left such a sentence without looking back, which made the attendants and stewards who were tumbling in their thoughts come back to their senses.
"Yes!" Qi Fei immediately responded.
Shi Mu returned to his secret room in the low mountain and sat cross-legged on a futon in the room.
He rolled up his sleeves and looked at his left arm, and his heart moved silently, and the blazing fire on his arm burned, and in a few moments, the originally cool cave became hot.
Shi Mu smiled with satisfaction and removed the flames from his arm again.
"Tuk Tuk Tuk ......" At this moment, there were several knocks outside the stone gate.
"Come in. Shi Mu put down his sleeves, got up and sat on a stone chair, and spoke.
As soon as the words fell, Cuihuan, dressed in a green maid's costume, pushed open the stone door and walked in.
"Mansion Master. Cuihuan lowered slightly, and for the first time showed a respectful look on his face, he saluted Shi Mu.
"Are those people telling the truth?" Shi Mu asked without beating around the bush and getting straight to the point.
Cuihuan's brows frowned slightly, her lips opened slightly, and then closed tightly, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't say anything.
"I don't have time to waste on you, if you refuse to say anything, the next time Zhao Shenlei sends someone to come, I will have no reason to continue to leave you, so I can only let the people of the Zhao Mansion deal with it. Shi Mu glanced at the woman and continued to speak.
As soon as these words came out, Cuihuan's originally cold face immediately gave birth to a trace of panic, and then he bit his lower lip tightly, and his eyes became a little dim, but he still didn't say anything.
"Although I haven't seen that Zhao Shenlei, but that Zhao Sanbao is not a person who pities the jade at first glance, the so-called peeping leopard in the tube, it can be seen, you have to think clearly. Shi Mu lightly tapped the armrest of the stone chair with his fingers and continued.
Cuihuan was still silent for a while, and then he sighed lightly with some kind of decision, slowly released his biting lower lip, and said:
"The lord of the mansion was able to do this today, and the little woman was already grateful in her heart. In fact, this matter is not impossible to say, but there are some things involved, and I am worried that it will affect the lord of the house. ”
"Tell me about it, I have my own opinions. Shi Mu said lightly.
"In fact, as early as a few decades ago, my grandfather was also a hundred-year-old disciple in the Qinglan Holy Land, but he was defeated in a big competition and fell to the bottom of the ranking, so he was expelled from the Holy Land......" Cuihuan gritted his teeth and began to tell the truth.
Shi Mu also sat up a little straighter and listened calmly.
"Before my grandfather was expelled, he had also spent thirty years in the Holy Land, and in the last few years, he had used the rare materials and all the Mysterious Spirit Points he had accumulated for many years to ask a famous refining master in the Holy Land to create a high-grade spiritual weapon for him. Originally, the intention of creating this high-grade spiritual weapon was to help my grandfather win in Dabi, but I didn't expect that this spiritual weapon could not be refined until the end of Dabi due to some reasons, so that when my grandfather left the holy land with regret, he only held a token in exchange for a spiritual weapon. Cuihuan said this, and paused.
"What happened later?" Shi Mu looked shocked when he heard this.
"Later, my grandfather passed away from illness, and he passed on this token on his deathbed. However, for various reasons, the family not only failed to retrieve the spiritual weapon, but was destroyed by the enemy because of this token. When the enemy came, it was my parents who desperately protected her, so that Cui'er escaped from the ascension alone. Cuihuan gritted her teeth and said.
"Oh, then how did you come to this Qinglan Holy Land and become a maid?" Shi Mu asked thoughtfully.
"After escaping, I was alone and desperate, wandering on some other planets for a long time, going through ups and downs, before finally borrowing a huge amount of debt from other forces, making some connections up and down, trying my best to enter this Qinglan Holy Land, and cultivated to the ground level, becoming a squire leader. Cuihuan said.
"Do you want to take the opportunity to exchange for that high-grade spirit weapon?" Shi Mu glanced at her and asked.
"Yes, if I don't take it back, how can I be worthy of the dead souls of my people, how can I be worthy of my parents, and how can I be worthy of my grandfather? Cuihuan said this, a little excited.
“...... But then I found out that I had gone to great lengths to join the Holy Land, and I was only an insignificant attendant in the first layer, and I didn't even have the qualifications to enter the Xuanling Pagoda, so how could I contact the refining master who had refined the spirit weapon back then? Because I was eager to find the refining master, I accidentally leaked my mouth and was known by others. When the woman said this, her expression darkened a little.
"Then Zhao Shenlei wants to take you away, just to exchange the spirit weapon for a token?" Shi Mu asked with a deep groan.
"Yes, after Zhao Shenlei got the news from elsewhere, he sent someone to cover all my debts, and then he kept sending people to threaten me to hand over the tokens. Recently, they have been getting tighter and tighter, and I dare not go out of the house again, for fear that they will forcibly take them away. Cuihuan said.
"Although the high-grade spiritual weapon is precious, it is not as good as your own safety, right? Why do you bother to be strong, why don't you just have sex. Shi Mu groaned for a while, and said slowly.
"Actually, I have repeatedly searched for that refining master to no avail, and I have long lost hope of getting that spiritual weapon back, and I originally planned to hand over the token to avoid disaster. But who would have thought that after some inquiry, I learned that Zhao Shenlei's house was actually involved in the enemy family that destroyed me, and he not only wanted to get my spiritual weapon, but also wanted to catch my people and use them as a cultivation furnace. Cuihuan gritted her teeth and said hatefully.
"I see, but now that the matter has come to this, what are your plans, ready for me to provoke a strong enemy and protect you for the rest of your life?" Shi Mu frowned slightly, and only after a while did he become cold.
Cuihuan did not immediately answer Shi Mu's words, but lowered his head, his hands clasped together, as if he was caught in a difficult choice, very hesitant.
Seeing this, Shi Mu didn't urge, just waited quietly.
Time passed minute by minute, and after a full quarter of an hour, Cuihuan suddenly raised his head, gritted his teeth and said:
"If the lord of the mansion can help me, I am willing to exchange this spiritual weapon for a token. ”
"Oh, how do you want me to help you?" Shi Mu looked noncommittal.
"Then Zhao Shenlei entered the Qinglan Holy Land two terms before the mansion master, I naturally will not be strong, and I want the mansion master to clash with him head-on, I only hope that the mansion master can give me a shelter, so that I will not be arrested by him for the time being. Cuihuan said.
"That's all?" Shi Mu's eyes narrowed slightly.
"For a period of ten years, after ten years, I hope that the Mansion Master can be my guarantor and let me participate in the selection and trial of the next Qinglan Holy Land. At that time, life and death will be borne by me, and I will have nothing to do with the lord of the house. Cui Huan replied in a firm tone.
"It turns out that you want to become a disciple of Qinglan on your own. Okay, then let me ask you first, do you know what the high-grade spiritual weapon that your grandfather commissioned back then was?" Shi Mu nodded, and suddenly asked with a change of words.
"This ...... I don't know very well. Cuihuan was slightly stunned and said with some shame.
"Didn't your grandfather tell his family?" Shi Mu looked a little unconvinced.
"Don't get me wrong, lord. In fact, even my grandfather didn't know what that artifact looked like. It is said that at that time, the master refiner found that the materials provided by my grandfather were very special, so he adopted a new type of casting method in order to make the spirit weapon exert the strongest effect, and the final shape was not determined at that time, and it was precisely because of this that the casting time of the spirit weapon was greatly extended, so that he could not complete it before my grandfather participated in the big competition, so that he did not see the completed spirit weapon until he died. Cuihuan said about her grandfather, and her expression became a little desolate.
"The value of a high-grade spiritual weapon is enough for me to take refuge with you. Okay, I've agreed to all your conditions. Shi Mu's eyes flickered a few times and said categorically.
"Mansion Master, you ...... Did you really agree?" Cuihuan looked at Shi Mu's eyes in disbelief, and his voice became urgent.
Shi Mu looked at him calmly and nodded affirmatively.
In fact, he was naturally very tempted by the high-grade spiritual weapon in his heart, after all, he only had a low-grade spiritual weapon in his hand at present, if he could have a high-grade spiritual weapon, his own strength would at least be able to surge immediately.
And once his strength is improved, it will also allow him to reduce the number of times he uses the Nine Turns Xuangong, which will also increase his chances of keeping that fatal secret to a certain extent.
"Not only that, in the next ten years, you can use the resources produced in the mansion at will, and if you have special needs, you can also exchange them with the spirit stones in the mansion. I won't interfere too much with this. Shi Mu said.
"This is true" Cuihuan was stunned when he heard Shi Mu's words, and blurted out such a question.
"Why? you don't want to?" Shi Mu raised his eyebrows.
"No...... Cuihuan thanked the lord of the mansion for his great kindness. Cuihuan finally came to her senses, and hurriedly bowed again, her face full of gratitude.
"Alright, you can give me the token. Shi Mu said.
When Cui Huan heard this, a trace of shame suddenly appeared on his face.
This woman is already quite beautiful, but at this moment, her originally cold cheeks are slightly red, and she can't help but give birth to a different style.
Seeing this, Shi Mu couldn't help but feel a little strange in his heart, and saw that this woman suddenly reached out to the right side of her neck and unbuttoned her shirt there.
An emerald green placket was then opened in half, revealing a plump and white skin inside, and a slender hand poked down from above, and took out something from the furrow between the plumpness.
Shi Mu had already wanted to avoid the gaze, but he was suddenly attracted by that thing. (To be continued.) )
