Chapter 263: Where is the Resurrection Stone?
Gao Fei was overjoyed, he originally wanted them to stay, now it's okay, there is hope for solving the case.
Bai Ze looked at Ye Aoxue, he naturally knew the reason why she wanted to stay - the resurrection stone, she wanted to resurrect Yuanbao and Xiao Dai's heart, even he, the master, couldn't compare.
Ye Aoxue threw the luggage to Hu Xiaobai: "Go and tell the shopkeeper, we won't leave, and we will live in the previous room." ”
It didn't matter to Hu Xiaobai whether he walked or not, he happily picked up his luggage and ran towards the cabinet.
After settling back in, several people drank tea and planned this action in their room.
"I have a gut feeling that this shadow thief has something to do with the Resurrection Stone, so we have to stay and catch this thief." Ye Aoxue took a sip of tea and explained the reason why she made this decision.
"If so, why didn't he steal our Resurrection Stone?" Fox Xiaobai asked sincerely.
"Didn't you say that foxes are cunning? Why is this fox I have so stupid as a pig? He himself wanted to steal the Resurrection Stone, and later alarmed Mia, didn't he steal it? And in order to hide his own purpose, he stole other people's belongings. ”
"Aoxue has a point." Chu Litian nodded.
"Since he didn't succeed, he will definitely come back to steal the Resurrection Stone." Bai Ze whispered, "Aoxue, do you want to put the Resurrection Stone into the Forgotten Ruins?" ”
"Nope." Ye Aoxue shook her head, "We're going to lure the snake out of the hole." ”
"How do you lure a snake out of a hole?" Fox Xiaobai blinked his big puzzled eyes.
Half a quarter of an hour later.
Chu Litian walked to the counter where the innkeeper was standing with a resurrection stone.
At this time, the innkeeper had a sad face, and now everyone knew that he had entered the thief in this store, and seeing that his inn was about to close down, there was nothing he could do.
"Shopkeeper, let me ask you about something." Chu Litian pretended to lean against the counter mysteriously, lowered his voice and said to the shopkeeper.
"What's the matter?"
"Do you know where around here you can sell antiques?" Chu Litian continued to pretend to be mysterious, and there were many mysteries hidden in his eyes as bright as stars.
"Antiques? What, do you have an antique to sell? The shopkeeper raised his eyebrows and looked at the extraordinary-looking man again.
"Well, there is a piece." Chu Li Tianshen mysteriously took out the resurrection stone and circled in front of the shopkeeper.
"Look at this, I got it by accident, it is said that it was a stone that Nuwa accidentally dropped into the world when she created a person, called the Resurrection Stone, of course, this is only a small piece of it, but it should be quite valuable, and now the world is not good, I want to find a place to sell it, anyway, there is no benefit in staying on me."
The stone only shook in front of the shopkeeper, and then it was put away by Chu Litian.
As soon as he heard that it was the resurrection stone, the shopkeeper's eyes lit up, seeing that this son was dignified and powerful, he was not an ordinary person at first glance, and he was accompanied by a talking dog. Hey! The stone in his hand seems to be real, the resurrection stone, it is a stone that can resurrect the dead, think about how much it is worth!
"That'...... How much are you going to sell? The shopkeeper thought about it, he still knew a lot of rich people, if this business was done, he would sell it and make a profit.
"It's priceless, you know? However, I have been short of money recently, and I will sell it if I am willing to pay 100,000 taels. Chu Litian said with a smile.
100,000 taels...... The shopkeeper quietly calculated in his heart how many people he knew who could give 100,000 taels, and once he screened it, there were only two or three left, and he sold it again, and it was estimated that he could earn 10,000 taels or 20,000 taels.
"By the way, the 100,000 taels I said are gold, not silver."
The shopkeeper's eyes rolled, and he almost turned his back on his anger: "In these years, apart from the emperor, who has 100,000 taels of gold?!" This son, it's not certain that this stone in your hand is not true! ”
"So I said, this thing is priceless, and if you have money, you will not be willing to give up this money, no matter what, I will bother you to help me publicize and publicize, and ask more people."
With that, Chu Litian took out an ingot of gold and placed it heavily in front of the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper swallowed his saliva, this boy was really generous, and he didn't help him get things done, so he gave him a piece of gold, didn't this put pressure on him? Looks like he's really going to have to take care of it.
After Chu Litian returned to the room, he found that Ye Aoxue and Bai Ze were about to go out, so he hurriedly said a word to take me with him, and followed them out.
Walking on the street, Ye Aoxue held the resurrection stone tightly in the palm of her hand, if there was a resurrection stone nearby, she would definitely be able to feel it for the first time.
Chu Litian pressed one hand on the hilt of his sword, while looking at the surrounding environment vigilantly, as an emperor who already owned three countries, countless people were coveting his position, and no one wanted to take his place, so vigilance was crucial.
What's more, walking in front of him is a woman he cares about very much.
Care about? He froze when the word flashed through his mind, the word came so naturally, not at all out of place, as if he took it for granted that he felt this way about her.
There must have been something between them, and even if he didn't remember, it must have been an indelible fact.
"Don't you look at the road when you walk?" Bai Ze's voice suddenly came from his ears, Chu Litian frowned involuntarily, although Bai Ze looked like he didn't eat the fireworks of the world and the fairy wind bones, but Chu Litian knew that Bai Ze had fallen into the demon path, and the relationship with Ye Aoxue was inexplicable, especially sometimes when he looked at Ye Aoxue's eyes, it was very unpleasant, anyway, he just didn't like it.
He subconsciously rolled his eyes, but then a great pain came from his head, and his head hit the stone pillar hard.
Ye Aoxue was startled by this huge voice and turned around, but saw this speechless scene: "What's wrong with you?" And not a child, walking and hitting your head? ”
"I'm thinking about something else, distracted." Chu Litian coughed twice in embarrassment, raised his head, but met Bai Ze's smiling face.
Damn smiling tigers!
"Is it really okay? You're bleeding. Ye Aoxue frowned slightly, this Chu Litian is not a small boss, why can't he take care of himself, and he can get a bloody face when he walks.
In desperation, she took out her handkerchief and handed it to Chu Litian.
Looking at Ye Aoxue, who handed him a handkerchief, Chu Litian's heart was mixed for a while, and he was moved.
"And then! Do you want me to wipe it for you? Ye Aoxue rolled her eyes widely, and stuffed the rag heavily into Chu Litian's hand.
And at this time, Ye Aoxue felt that the resurrection stone in her hand began to vibrate, she tentatively circled around, and found that once facing south, the resurrection stone shook very much, so she turned around and said to them to keep up, and hurriedly ran towards the small forest in the south.
The Resurrection Stone has a strong sense of the direction facing south, maybe you can find clues about the Resurrection Stone in that direction, no wonder Ye Aoxue is so excited.
Chu Litian no longer cared about his blood, said a word to Mia, followed and ran with Ye Aoxue's back.
After running for about half an hour, as the resurrection stone in his hand became more and more intensely shaking and hot, Ye Aoxue was sure that there was a resurrection stone nearby.
And just as she was about to hold her breath, feel the breath of everything around her, and try to find out the location of the resurrection stone, she suddenly heard someone shouting for help, it was a female voice, the voice was very urgent, and she felt like she was being cornered.
Ye Aoxue didn't think about it, and hurriedly ran towards the source of the sound.
It turned out to be Ye Tiantong.
It's really a narrow road, and you can't look up and see you down.
Ye Aoxue frowned, observing, analyzing, and judging the situation in front of her.
In fact, there is nothing to judge, the situation is very clear. At this time, Ye Tiantong's clothes were disheveled, most of her snow-white fragrant shoulders were exposed, her collarbones were full of red bite marks, and her underwear and shoes had been taken off, her two slender and white jade legs were exposed to the air, and an obscene middle-aged man was pressed on her body, who was sitting on her lower abdomen at this time, anxiously taking off her clothes.
And even if Ye Tiantong didn't want to be pressed under the man, he didn't have enough strength to push the man away.
Two lines of clear tears had dried on his face.
"Help...... Help me! Her voice changed from loud to small, as if she had despaired.
The former princess ended up like this, she might as well die!
And just as she was thinking this, the man's body suddenly stunted, and then fell heavily to the side.
Ye Tiantong's body trembled with fright, and his whole body shrank together pitifully.
Ye Aoxue took off her robe and threw it on Ye Tiantong's body: "Don't get dressed yet?" When? ”
It wasn't until he heard Ye Aoxue's voice that Ye Tiantong knew that it was his sister who saved him again, and he couldn't help but cry like rain and cry bitterly.
And Bai Ze and Chu Litian, who arrived later, were very strange when they saw this scene.
"Ye Tiantong?" Chu Litian recognized her at a glance, even though she was already emaciated, "Why are you here?" ”
Ye Tiantong raised his head and saw Chu Litian, and the expression in his eyes suddenly became very complicated, resentful and resentful.
"Chu Litian? Am I not mistaken? The emperor of the dignified Anling Kingdom is actually in such a place? Do you have an idea for the country of Kameji? ”
"Get dressed first." How much Ye Tiantong hates Chu Litian, Ye Aoxue can completely imagine and understand her, but now is not the time to quarrel after all, Ye Aoxue patted her shoulder and reminded her to get dressed first.
Ye Tiantong was full of tears and glared at Chu Litian viciously.
Ye Aoxue reacted at this time, and also glared at them: "You still don't turn around for me?" Mia, you too! Don't think you're just a dog! ”
