Gu Ming looked at the house in the distance, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, there was actually someone inside. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 Although they were separated by a distance, Gu Ming was still sensed that his cultivation should not be high, only during the Qi refining period, Gu Ming walked through the courtyard and bypassed a long corridor, surrounded by traces of a fight from a few years ago, broken rockeries, decaying broken wood, and partially collapsed houses. The Xia family's mansion was bigger than imagined, Gu Ming simply jumped on the roof, and quickly rushed towards the location he sensed, just a few phantoms, Gu Ming had already come to a quiet courtyard, the ancient trees were verdant, and an old man was seriously sweeping the dead leaves on the ground, looking up and seeing Gu Ming who was suddenly standing in front of him, he was so frightened that he took a few steps back and threw the broom aside.

"Who are you?" The old man asked.

"I happened to be passing by, I heard that this is the Xia Mansion, I am curious to come in and take a look, I heard that the Xia family has been destroyed a few years ago, who are you?" Gu Ming asked expressionlessly, but his eyes kept staring at the old man, as if there was a sharp refraction.

"I was hired by the Liu family to clean here, the head of the Liu family was close friends with the Xia family back then, and I didn't want to see the Xia family's mansion defeated, so I paid me spirit stones every month, and specially asked me to clean here, Master Liu is a good person." The old man picked up his broom as he spoke, intending to continue cleaning.

At this time, Xia Wu and Xia Ruo also rushed over, obviously hearing the old man's words, their eyes were full of gratitude.

"Oh, I see, do you know where the people of the Xia family are buried?" Gu Ming asked blandly, as if it was very casual, Xia Wu and Xia Ruo both looked at the old man.

"The dead of the Xia family were buried in the ancestral grave of the Xia family by Master Liu, and Master Liu regretted that he did not have time to rescue him, so he could only bury all the Xia family members well." The old man looked like a memory.

Gu Ming's eyes rolled and asked again, "Are you the servant of the Liu family?" ”

The old man froze for a moment: "No, I'm just a poor old man wandering in Haoming City, who was kindly hired by Master Liu."

"Have you been living here all these years?" Gu Ming then asked.

"Well, I'm helpless, I have nowhere to go, no one has come back from Xia Mansion all these years, and I've been living here."

"Someone else has been here." Gu Ming looked around and asked again.

"No, only Master Liu has been incense a few times."

"It seems that this lord is really a good person." After Gu Ming finished speaking, Xia Wu responded: "The Liu family does have a good relationship with our Xia family, our Xia family has helped the Liu family many times back then, and later there was a lot of cooperation in business, although the Liu family is not as good as our Xia family, it is also very famous in Haoming City." ”

Xia Wu and Xia Ruo asked the old man a lot of questions, Gu Ming listened quietly on the side, and from the old man's words, he could hear that Master Liu had been particularly attentive to the Xia family over the years. "Okay, you go down, I've worked hard for you all these years, Master Liu, I'll go and visit in person," Gu Ming said gently, and the old man turned around and left. Facing the door in the courtyard is an ancient house, Xia Wu pushed open the door, and one by one the spirit tablets were placed all over the table, and it turned out that this was the ancestral hall of the Xia family. Gu Ming didn't follow up, and a few ups and downs landed lightly on the top of the highest house in the Xia Mansion, a fine light flashed in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, revealing a sneer.

Xiao Bai saw Gu Ming in the courtyard at the entrance of the mansion, raised his head and hissed, as if he had found something, Gu Ming quickly flashed to Xiao Bai's side, "What's the matter, Xiao Bai" Xiao Bai kept digging on the ground with his front feet, "Is there something down here" Gu Ming asked.

Xiaobai nodded immediately.

"Big brother, what's the matter, what are you doing?"

Gu Ming turned around, and it turned out to be Xia Wu and Xiao Ruo coming over.

"Xiaobai seems to have found something, you guys come and take a look." Gu Ming was also a little curious, what was below, carefully inducted, there was a subtle fluctuation of spiritual power, a few people dug up the soil layer, and soon dug a deep pit, a special box made of iron and wood was presented, Gu Ming didn't want to lift the box directly, a few sharp arrows swished from the side of the box, Gu Ming reacted instantly, since there was a hidden mechanism inside, Gu Ming had to give up the box and the whole person quickly avoided it, a few hairs slipped gently, Gu Ming took a breath of cold air, and almost hit the trick, but fortunately reacted quickly.

"Brother Gu Ming, are you okay?" Xia Ruo hurriedly asked.

"I'm fine, I'm okay," Gu Ming said in disbelief.

Gu Ming looked at the box and asked, "Xiao Wu, do you know what is in here?" ”

"I don't know, I haven't seen it before, could it be that there is some treasure hidden inside" Xia Wu shook his head and said.

"You guys stand back, I'll pick up the box" Gu Ming motioned for Xia Wu to step back, and after seeing them retreat for a distance, he grabbed the box and took a breath, and pulled it up violently, and the box flew up directly, and at the same time Gu Ming quickly turned over and dodged, dozens of flying needles shot out rapidly, making a "Xiu Xiu" air cracking sound, seeing that the box was about to fall back into the pit, Gu Ming stretched out his foot to stop, and lifted his foot hard, the box flew up, and he reached out to catch it directly. I didn't expect it to be so dangerous, could it be that there was really any treasure hidden in it, and Xia Wu also came over to take a look. Gu Ming opened the box carefully, and suddenly the spiritual power was overwhelming, it was actually a box of high-grade spirit stones, and there was a jade scroll buried in the spirit stone, such a big fortune, even Xiaobai had stars in his eyes, and he could buy a lot of spiritual grass, Xia Wu swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and a trace of doubt flashed in Gu Ming's eyes, he had already relaxed his vigilance, but when he saw the jade scroll, Gu Ming felt unusual, how many jade scrolls were there, and this jade scroll looked exactly the same as the jade scroll that recorded the Mixed Yuan Decision.

"You retreat to the outside of the mansion, I don't call you, don't come close," Gu Ming said with a solemn expression, but he was thinking about whether to put the cover back in place, thinking about it or curiosity, he reached out and picked up the jade scroll, and before Gu Ming could take a closer look, a danger came inexplicably, Gu Ming quickly picked up a handful of spirit stones, and jumped over the wall and turned out of the mansion with a move, which showed that he was frightened, and at the same time threw the jade scroll back, and saw that the Xia Wu outside the mansion only said: "Hurry up" and pulled them to the distance quickly. "Boom... Boom" two loud bangs, a wave of air from the back of the earth and rocks pushed, feeling that the earth was trembling, the three of them turned around, the Xia family was drowned in a billowing smoke and dust, the three of them couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, fortunately they were vigilant, otherwise they were afraid that they would turn into a pile of dust, Xiaobai was also frightened and hissed, and his eyes were full of humanized doubts.

Gu Ming couldn't help muttering, who in the Xia family came up with such a trick, isn't this a pit man, the enemy didn't arrive, and almost extinguished the last two fires of the Xia family. Ya, almost planted in it, if the average person can't pass the first level, even if it passes the first level, it will definitely be planted in the second trap, who would have thought that there will be a trap, it is likely to relax the guard, if the reaction is not fast enough, even if it is useless to be careful, as for the last one, after such a big thrilling box to take out, including Gu Ming also lowered his vigilance, and then opened the box, a whole box of high-grade spirit stones, such a huge wealth, and more importantly, there is a jade scroll, This trap is definitely the person who wants to pit and grab the jade scroll, who sees this whole box of high-grade spirit stones, plus the jade scroll, is still overjoyed, absolutely defenseless. Gu Ming was wary when he saw the jade scroll, this jade scroll is supposed to have no two, Xia Wu already has one in his hand, and there is probably a problem with the one in the box, and then think about why so many spirit stones are not hidden in a storage bag, it is even more difficult to find, why use the box, Gu Ming was on guard early, so he avoided the big move of this pit man. This person's design mind can be described as extremely cautious, grasping the weaknesses in people's hearts, introducing them step by step, not hiding the box in an easy place to find, but also burying it with care, it is difficult to find without intentionally looking for it, and constantly reducing the enemy's defensive psychology.

Several people looked at the Xia family's compound in a daze, and looked at each other with gray faces, and they were a little speechless, what the hell is this swollen. Soon many monks rushed to hear the sound, Gu Ming also mixed in the crowd, and saw that half of the Xia family compound was blown up, the Xia family compound covered an area of several miles, but there was a huge pit, Gu Ming had to sigh that it was really ruthless, this power was enough to level a hill, Xiaobai "poof, poof", thinking that he had dug up a big treasure, but he didn't expect it to be a land mine, and he was careful that his liver was plopped. This time he came back and destroyed half of the Xia family's foundation, Gu Ming touched the back of his head in embarrassment.

"Eh, what's going on in this Xia Mansion, it's such a big pit" The onlookers began to discuss.

"Why did the mountains shake the ground, I thought it was thundering, but when I saw that the Xia family's compound was overturned, it was weird."

"Could it be that the ghost of the Xia family has returned?"

"Nonsense, what kind of person dares to make trouble in the Xia Mansion, and if you can't get along with the Xia family, you can't get along with me Liu," a group of uniformly dressed monks followed an old man in gorgeous robes to push through the crowd and came to the courtyard, saying loudly with a cold face.

"Master Liu is here"

"It turned out to be Master Liu of the Liu family"

"Now that there is no Xia family, the Liu family is the largest family in our Haoming City, and this Master Liu is really as affectionate and righteous as the rumors."

Gu Ming looked at the old man Liu in people's mouths, his pupils shrank, and he frowned slightly, this person was actually a Yuanying monk. Master Liu glanced around intentionally or unintentionally as he spoke.

"It's all dispersed, what kind of system will it be to gather here, one day when I am Liu, I will keep the Xia family's compound and not allow anyone to be presumptuous here." Master Liu said impassionedly.

Xia Wu and Xia Ruo were both grateful, and wanted to go up and reveal their identities, but Gu Ming grabbed the two from behind, shook his head and said, "It's best not to expose your identities in front of everyone now, so as not to cause trouble." The Xia Wu brothers and sisters nodded when they heard Gu Ming's words, and they did not rush up to recognize each other, but dispersed with the crowd.

Away from the Xia family's compound, Gu Ming turned into an alley, came to an old tree, several people stopped, sat on the smooth stone slab under the tree, Xiao Bai had already quietly changed to the size of a kitten, and was held in his hand by Gu Ming, after all, it was too conspicuous and easy to attract attention. Gu Ming put down Xiaobai, shook his sleeves, rolled out a few high-grade spirit stones, counted eleven high-grade spirit stones, thinking about the whole box of high-grade spirit stones, several people felt a pity in their hearts, a high-grade spirit stone is 10,000 low-grade spirit stones, all turned into dust, thinking that Xia Zhenyuan had worked hard in Nantong City for two years, and he had not made up enough 10,000 spirit stones to save money, what a fortune this is.

Gu Ming secretly said in his heart that the pit goods of the Xia family were really pitted home, such a careful trap, why didn't that group of people fall for it, what went wrong in it, did they have any way to track the whereabouts of the jade scroll, knowing that the jade scroll had left the Xia Mansion, so there was no search to dig three feet into the ground, this guess is very possible, and why they were able to find such a remote place in Nantong City. Not to mention spending so many spirit stones in vain, the water almost washed the Dragon King Temple, and his own family pitted his own family.

"Xiao Wu, do you know when this box was buried, it shouldn't be silent like this," Gu Ming asked suspiciously.

"No, I haven't found any boxes buried in Xia Mansion all the time" Could it be that our Xia family knew a long time ago that someone was coming to grab the jade scroll, if we knew in advance, we would definitely prepare early, it must have been that night Grandpa found out that something was wrong and told us to escape" Xia Wu was not only a little puzzled.

"It's no wonder," Gu Ming said with an understanding.

"Brother Gu Ming, you mean that the box was buried later, could it be that there are other people in our Xia family who survived," Xia Ruo asked happily.

"According to all kinds of signs, there is indeed such a possibility, this person should have rushed back to the Xia family after the fact, I expected that a group of people who could not find the jade scroll might go back to the Xia family to dig three feet into the ground, but unfortunately that group of people did not come back. The mind of this person who set up the situation is extremely not simple, it is purely an accident that he did not trap the enemy, and he is decisive, using millions of spirit stones as bait, it is really a big deal, he is probably still alive, can you guess who he is" Gu Ming asked, obviously very interested in the individual.
