At sunset, Puyang City.

Xuanyuan Yushu, Shangguan Yizhi, and Ruozizhi discussed in the hall.

"Where's Sister Phantom?" asked Wakako.

"All the way, your sister Lingling is a little tired, so go back to the room to rest first. Shangguan said with a smile.

"Okay. The well-behaved Ruozi pursed her lips and said seriously, "According to Sister Nuo Ning's instructions, five hundred craftsmen were recruited, but because the promised wages were not given at all, they never set off. Brother Yushu, Brother Yizhi, what do you think should be done about this matter?"

The other two people looked embarrassed, "Your sister Nuo Ning has exempted the people in the city from paying taxes for a year, so don't look for me about money." Xuanyuan Yushu shook his fan, his eyes drifted out, and he looked like he didn't care about himself.

Ruozi pouted higher, "To the eldest brother......"

"This ...... It's not easy to do business lately......" Shangguan Yizhi scratched his head, "Let's go a few days, okay?"

Ruozi looked unhappy, "By the way, in addition, to my brother, did you find the ice color chalcedony or something I asked you to find?"

"Which ...... Well...... These are the rare things you want, which is so easy. Shangguan Yi was embarrassed.

"Well, I'm reminded of someone. Xuanyuan Yushu suddenly put away the fan and turned around, "The lord of the gilded city is a wealthy merchant in the world, known as lame gold, and the trade routes and connections are all over Middle-earth, if you ask him, I believe that it is not difficult to search for such treasures." ”

"Oh?" Ruozi looked at Xuanyuan Yushu.

I saw Xuanyuan Yushu turn around, sit down in front of the desk, open a roll of rice paper, and write the word "gold" on it with a pen.

As soon as the ink dried slightly, Xuanyuan Yushu folded it and handed it to Shangguan Yizhi, "I have been a staff member in the Jin Mansion for a period of time before, if you need to, you can take this painting to find the lame Jin, I believe he will not refuse." ”

............

As they were talking, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and the three of them turned around to see that Tian Nuoning and Tie Mian walked in.

"Sister Nuo Ning!" Wakako cheered, "You're back." ”

Seeing Xuanyuan Yushu's reassuring smile, Tian Nuoning's face still did not change. Tie Mian stepped forward and handed the gold-sealed scroll in his arms to Xuanyuan Yushu.

Xuanyuan Yushu came back to his senses, opened the scroll and looked at it, and said with a smile, "It seems that the matter of Zi Xiaomei's anxiety has been settled." ”

"I'll see, I'll see!" Ruozi snatched forward, snatched the gold scroll, and couldn't wait to open it and look at it, and couldn't help but be overjoyed.

"Tomorrow, you and Li Hao will set off with the craftsman. Tian Nuo said lightly.

"The city lord has worked hard all the way, so let's rest. Xuanyuan Yushu said with a smile.

"Nope. Tian Nuoning said coldly, "Tiemian, you go to a place with me." ”

Tie Mian nodded, followed Tian Nuoning and turned to leave, not noticing Xiao Suo's back behind him.

............

On a moonlit night, the Milky Way hangs high, pouring down a night of starlight.

Following in the footsteps of Tian Nuoning, the two came to Luoqi Mountain outside Puyang City, winding all the way towards the top of the mountain.

Tie Mian was a little puzzled, but Tian Nuoning's behavior was often unexpected, and he gradually got used to it.

At the top of the mountain, the three big characters of "Bu Tianguan" are hung high, and the temple door is wide open, but there is no one inside and outside, as if they are waiting for the two of them.

The two walked into the temple, the green bricks and green grass, the quiet room lights on both sides were extinguished, the only quiet room was lit alone, outside the room, hundreds of flowers were quietly sprinkled, as if they were in a fairy tale world.

Tian Nuoning didn't ask much, and was about to knock on the door a few times, but when he heard a squeak, the door opened automatically, and an old Taoist priest sat in the room.

It seemed that he had expected the two to come, and the old man smiled at them. Tian Nuoning stepped forward, "This Dao Chief, an old man of yours has something to ask for. As he spoke, he handed over half a jade pendant.

The old Taoist who was sitting at the end suddenly became a little emotional, slowly turned around, and took out half a jade pendant from the brocade box behind him.

Suddenly, the jade pendant in Tian Nuoning's hand seemed to have a sense, and it flew up with a green light and flew towards the old Taoist.

The two pieces of jade pendant are one and fit together.

............

Tie Mian behind him squinted his eyes, and saw that the old Taoist sighed, without opening his mouth, a deep voice came, "It's been a hundred years, and my senior sister is still dedicated to ...... Alas......"

The two people in the hall were stunned.

"Tell your priests. The old Taoist struggled for a moment, and his deep voice sounded again, like a ventriloquist, "If this formation is opened, it will definitely lead to ......."

"Boom!" Suddenly a thunderclap fell from the clear night sky, and the earth was shaken.

Black incantations suddenly appeared on the old man's body, flowing like chains, tightening his throat.

The old man covered his throat with his hands, his breath became short, and the two people behind him quickly met him.

However, the old man waved at them with one hand, stopped them, and after a while, he coughed up a mouthful of blood, and the flickering black charm gradually disappeared.

"I believe she must know, and it is useless to believe me to advise. The old man wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and stood up, "Follow me." ”

............

The three of them walked into the back room and saw a screen on the left and right sides of the room, embroidered with sun candles on the left and gloomy on the right. A simple bronze mirror in the middle is engraved with the word "observation".

Seeing the old man standing quietly in front of the mirror, he took a deep breath and closed his eyes.

In this claustrophobic space, a burst of Sanskrit chanting suddenly sounded, as if coming from the depths of heaven and earth, low and deafening.

In a moment, the voice of chanting became more and more rapid, and the golden light gradually lit up on the old Dao's brow.

"Sky Eye, open!"

In the stunned gaze of the two behind him, his eyebrows were cracked, and a golden eye was revealed.

The pupils glowed golden, shooting into the mirror, and the figure in the mirror gradually became clear.

"Your priest asked you to collect the spirit beast crystals. Lao Dao didn't turn around, and raised his tone, "But you remember, this matter is against the way of heaven, the fate of life and death, and the blessings and misfortunes of the night, you weigh it yourself." ”

"If you want to collect spirit beast crystals, you must first kill them. The old man said calmly, "Everything needs to be easy first and then difficult, and the person in the mirror is the last fierce beast among the four evils - Chaos." ”

Tian Nuoning and Tie Mian looked at the bronze mirror anxiously, and saw that the person in the mirror was dressed in black, covered with a cloth, and could not see his face clearly.

The man lurked in the darkness, approaching the inn ahead.

Soon, seeing a drunken man staggering out of the door, the man in black quickly ran out, covering the man's mouth and nose, and before the man could scream, he was taken captive into the nearby woods.

A whimpering scream came, and the two looked at it, and the man was pressed to the ground by the man in black, covering his mouth, and his eyes were inserted.

The man on the ground fainted in pain, but the man in black looked casual, looked at the bloody eyeballs in his hands, and put them directly into his mouth.

The disgusting Tian Nuoning had a spasm, turned his head and couldn't bear to look at it anymore, his body shook a little, and he instinctively held on to the iron mask beside him.

"Chaos is born without eyes. The old man said, "If you want to have eyes, you need to eat a pair of human eyes every seven days." ”

Iron Mask's eyes widened, carefully distinguishing the person's appearance.

I saw the man in black standing on the spot, and then he bent down and picked up the man on the ground. Accidentally, the cloth cover fell off.

Iron Mask almost dropped his jaw in surprise.

The chaos in the mirror is the tiger power of the Strange Mountain Villa!

The blind guards and blind servants in the villa all came here like this!

Out of the quiet room, Tian Nuoning's face was still pale, Pu Liu's body trembled slightly, and Tie Mian led her to sit down on the stone bench in the courtyard first.

Tian Nuoning sat on the stone bench, sweat oozing from his forehead, his hands pressed to his chest, and he gasped heavily.

It was very beautiful, but Tie Mian didn't pay much attention to it, and said, "General Huwei goes out of the city once every half month, it seems that we can ambush him when he goes out of the city." It's just that there are one hundred and eight roads out of the city, and I don't know which one Huwei will take next time. ”

"That's the one we got out of town. Tian Nuo stroked his chest and said, "The blood stains in the Yongdao are of different depths, obviously caused by Huwei carrying the eyeless person to walk many times, coupled with this Huwei's stubbornness and obedience, he will definitely enter and exit Xiangping City through this Yongdao in half a month." ”

Naturally, Tian Nuo was thoughtful, and Tie Mian nodded convincingly.

"Half a month later, it seems that I am going to Xiangping City again. ”
