37. Chapter 37
Thunderwood is very common on this cultivation road, but there are not many that are long-lasting, let alone 10,000 years.
The Lei family has practiced thunder attribute exercises for generations, and their family heirloom "Thunder Wanjun" is the best magic trick in thunder attribute exercises. And the 10,000-year-old thunder wood is in line with the attributes of their exercises.
Lei Xiu caught this 10,000-year-old thunder wood, and he was not pretentious, and said directly: "Then I will accept it politely." Then with a flip of his wrist, two storage bags instantly appeared on his palm, and he threw one storage bag to each of them, "The harvest of going out this time." β
The two of them were not polite, they directly accepted the storage bag, Lei Zhao opened the storage bag, saw the things inside, grinned at the corners of his mouth, and received the things into the storage ring with satisfaction, and then asked: "Why did you come to us as soon as you came back?" What's going on? β
"Let's sit down and talk."
After the three of them sat down, Lei Xiu looked at Lei Zhao and said, "This time, our City Lord's Mansion recruited monks to encircle and suppress the Shura evil ghosts, you know. β
Lei Zhao nodded.
"The family doesn't talk to two families, although my father-in-law is the lord of a city, he also looks up to others, this time the encirclement and suppression of the Shura evil ghost is just a pretense, and the purpose of the above is to let us get the trick bead." Speaking of this, Lei Xiu glanced at Shen Jian, "I don't know where you got the news, this operation is about whether the Guang family can add another record to it, but since you are my cousin, then it will be fair competition, and whether you can get it or not depends on your own ability." In Lei Xiu's eyes, the probability of Shen Jian getting the trick bead alone is not great, not to mention those monks recruited from outside, just say that the city lord's mansion has let go of the young talents cultivated by those for this operation, which can be said to be the inevitable win of the trick bead.
Thinking of this, Lei Xiu couldn't help but feel a little guilty about Shen Jian, this cousin had suffered a lot since he was a child, but now she couldn't do the first thing she did when she came back, after all, she married the young city lord as his wife, not to mention whether she could add glory to her husband's family, it was absolutely impossible to drag her feet back. All she can do now is to act as if she doesn't know that her cousin wants to trick the pearl, which her father-in-law must never know. Lei Xiu hung his head, maybe Guanghan had some way.
Lei Zhao looked left and right, but he understood a little, his cousin wanted the prey of the City Lord's Mansion this time, and the husband's family of his cousin and sister, the rare Lei Zhao's mood was a little heavy.
"This mission is a big deal, and it's also an opportunity to practice, so I hope you will go along this time." This was said to Lei Zhao, "The eldest brother and your parents are too spoiled by you, and you have not made any progress over the years." "Originally, I planned to let Lei Zhao take Shen Jian to go to the training together, but Shen Jian's original purpose was there, so there is no need to say it.
"Where? I've reached the third level of thunderball. Lei Zhao was not convinced.
The corners of Lei Xiu's mouth hooked up a mocking arc, "The teacup that Shen Jian can avoid during the heartbeat period can't be avoided in your Jindan period?" β
"Well, I didn't pay attention." In the end, Lei Zhao's voice became quieter, and then Lei Zhao suddenly remembered something, and wondered: "Didn't you say that only monks below the golden pill are needed?" β
"I don't know who banned the hiding place of the Shura evil ghost, and only monks below the Jindan period are allowed to enter and exit." Shen Jian, who was expressionless all the time, suddenly chuckled, and the air around him seemed to freeze for a moment, and then it was fleeting and not easy to notice, "But the ban is not without shortcomings, although it can't be broken, but as long as you add something to it, what's the difficulty of sending in three Jindan monks, do you say it's cousin?" β
Lei Xiu was stunned for a moment, she thought that Shen Jian only knew the origin of this trick bead, but she didn't want to know so many secrets inside, and a feeling suddenly rose in her heart, maybe her cousin could get the trick bead.
After Shen Jian and Lei Zhao finished chatting with Lei Xiu, they chatted for a while before they got up and wanted to leave.
Before leaving, Shen Jian took out a wooden box and handed it to Lei Xiu, "No matter what the result is this time, this thing can bring a ray of light to the City Lord's Mansion, and also express some apologies for my actions this time." "Even if it's all about some friendship when I was a child, and the kindness of burying bones and erecting monuments in my previous life.
Lei Xiu was a little stunned the moment he took the wooden box, and Shen Jian didn't explain what was inside after speaking, he threw down the stunned Lei Xiu and Lei Zhao who was a little out of the situation, and walked out.
Lei Zhao looked at the two of them, and then quickly followed Shen Jian's footsteps.
In the lobby of the City Lord's Mansion, Gu Shuangshuang sat on a chair on one side, carefully looking at the monks present.
From the mouth of the little guy who had just led the way, I learned that the monks sitting in this hall were all determined people who had come out of the phantom array.
It had been more than an hour since Gu Shuangshuang came in, and there were only four monks who came in behind her, and with the previous number, there were currently less than twenty people in this hall.
Gu Shuangshuang rubbed the armrest of the chair, and was a little surprised that the pass rate of the phantom array was so low. Judging from the long queue of the Monks Alliance who saw the hot Cheng DΓΉ and the City Lord's Mansion queuing up to sign up, there were about five hundred people who entered the Phantom Array this time, but there were few people in this hall.
Among these monks, there are not only righteous monks, but also two or three demon cultivators, and judging by their breath, none of them are easy to get along with.
Gu Shuangshuang couldn't help but be a little interested, although this secluded city was ruled by demon cultivators, there were also demon cultivators in the city, and the demon cultivators in the city also lived in harmony with the righteous path monks. But no matter what, since ancient times, good and evil have not been opposed, not to mention that the demon cultivator and the righteous monk have cooperated in the mission, it is strange if the two sides do not fight, even if everyone temporarily compromises and cooperates together for the sake of the face of the city lord, but there is always some dirt and friction underneath, and if there is danger, these will become an opportunity for the death of a group of monks.
Gu Shuangshuang couldn't help but move, what is this city lord's plan? Do you really want the two realms of good and evil to live in harmony? When you think about it, it feels like a fantasy, and it is absolutely impossible.
The time to think always passed quite quickly, and when the butler's voice sounded in Gu Shuangshuang's ears and brought her back to her senses, today's selection was over.
