Chapter 25 The First Thief in the World
A month later, the North Star Kingdom. Beigong Yuliu returned to Chenguo half a month ago.
As soon as he returned, he received the news that the sword of the Nine Eyes Pagoda had been stolen.
Chen has three treasures of the town, first, the white jade Pixiu Ding that guards the imperial tomb, which is cast with high-quality white jade.
Second, the battle dragon sword in the Nine Eyes Pagoda is said to be the sword used by the first leader of the Muxi clan, the ancestor of the Chen Kingdom, this sword is regarded as the Sword Sect by the Chen Kingdom, and the leader is worshiped as the incarnation of the sword god.
Third, the third treasure is extremely mysterious, and the whole world doesn't know what it is, only Beigong Yuliu knows it, including his most respected eleventh emperor uncle. This treasure is the jade pendant that Beigong Yuliu gave to Zhen Rong, and the reason why a jade pendant is also a treasure is because of its function. Whoever has that piece of jade pendant can command half of the army of Chen Kingdom and have the power to command the three armies. (Emperor Chen directly commanded the six armies, and whoever had a jade pendant could command three of the six armies.) )
This time, the thief stole the War Dragon Sword.
Each floor of the Nine Eyes Pagoda is full of organs, the first layer is the arrows, and whoever intrudes, the mechanism of the wall will be touched, and ten thousand arrows will be fired at once.
The second to fourth floors are fireballs, and anyone who intrudes will have countless fireballs falling on the roof, and those who touch them will surely die.
The fifth to sixth floors are poisonous gas, and anyone who trespasses will definitely step on the ground, then the underground will emit poisonous gas, and those who touch the wall will also volatilize poisonous gas.
The seventh to ninth floors are tied with countless gold threads, and there are bells tied to the threads, as long as someone touches them lightly, all the bells will ring, and then the alarm bell at the highest point will be touched, thus triggering the mechanism, and countless silver needles will appear around it, and they are coated with great poison, and if you touch it, you will die. And it will also alarm the guards, so that even if you come out, you will never be able to leave.
Someone once broke in, but before they entered the third floor, they were all killed on the spot.
This time the thief did the opposite, he did not break through from the first floor, but from the top.
It is said that he dodged the layers of guards at that time, and then flew to the top with light skills, quietly uncovered the roof tiles, and got inside, in order not to touch the mechanism, as well as the silk thread, he used the bone shrinking skill to make his body smaller and thinner, close to the wall, carefully moved, and finally moved to the bottom.
At this time, his face was covered with a black scarf, his body was enlarged, his eyes showed a conceited and arrogant smile, he crawled his body, and was about to take the sword, but before he could reach out, he thought that there should be a mechanism around the sword, so he stopped.
He looked around closely, and saw that there was a thin twist on the shelf where the sword was placed, almost indistinguishable from the shelf. He guessed that it was a mechanism specially designed for holding swords.
Sure enough, he pressed it lightly, and the sword rose with the shelf, and in order to act safely and prudently, he waited for a while, and when he saw that there was nothing abnormal, he stretched out his hand and got the battle dragon sword.
After taking it, it was still the same as just now, out of the ninth floor. Due to the small size of his body, and the sword of the war dragon was made of gold and bronze, it was heavy, but this did not stump him, he carried the sword in front of him with strips of cloth, and then shrunk forward.
Beigong Yuliu, who had just returned from Chu State at this moment, heard this, and angrily arrested all the guards of the Nine Eyes Pagoda and executed Ling Chi.
Then he sent the hidden guards and found the whereabouts of the thief, and he turned all the other people's homes upside down.
It turned out that this person's name was Moon Traceless, and he was called the world's first thief by the people of the world, and he called himself Moon Shadow Traceless, because as long as it was what he wanted to steal, there was nothing he couldn't steal. As his self-proclaimed title suggests, the moon has a shadow, but it leaves no trace, to show that he has never missed.
Beigong Yuliu listened to the hermit guard's announcement, he thought for a while, and then asked, "You said he is in Pengzhou now?" He asked, uncertain.
(Pengzhou is the territory of the Chen State, but it is next to the Chu State, as long as you pass the Peng Pass, you will enter the territory of the Chu State).
At this moment, Beigong Yuliu was thinking in his heart, why did he go east, since he had already stolen the War Dragon Sword, he should go home, and his home was in the west, could he be going to steal something from any family in Pengzhou. No, if he wants to steal the things of the people of Pengzhou, why should he take the stolen War Dragon Sword, isn't he afraid that others will know about it and come to rob it all? Although his martial arts are not weak, his two fists are invincible to his four hands, so his purpose can never be so simple.
His tone was cold and ruthless, "Keep an eye on him, if you lose it, you know the consequences." "Whoever fails in his goal, cut off the four meridians and expel the hidden guards.
Although the people of Jianghu are not afraid of the royal family, they do not dare to anger the royal family lightly, so Beigong Yuliu thinks that there should be a greater reason for Yue Wuxian to have to do this. He wanted to see what he was doing it for. Anyway, for him, every day is so boring, why not play?
Yue Wuxian left Pengzhou overnight, and then went out of the customs and arrived in the state of Chu.
When he arrived in the state of Chu, he felt that the journey was too smooth, but he couldn't delay.
Because he wanted to rush to the state of Chu immediately and steal a treasure of the royal family of the state of Chu, this treasure is the heart shield worn by the founding ancestor of the state of Chu, called the Xuanguang mirror. This mirror is said to be invincible and invincible as long as you wear it.
The State of Chu, like the Kingdom of Chen, has three treasures.
First, the golden dragon tripod that guards the imperial tomb, it is cast with gold and bronze.
Second, the Xuanguang mirror.
Three, Jin Ling. It was cast in gold, and it was also engraved with a royal character, which was a warrant for the spy network of the spy building branch in the whole world, and this order was only owned by the emperor of Chu. There are two kinds of spy studios, one is to monitor the people in the Chu dynasty and local officials. The other is to monitor the movements of several other countries.
This time he was helpless, he had to steal these two treasures and hand them over to the Demon Pavilion (a killer organization that specializes in killing people for a living), the last time Zhen Rong was chased and killed by the man in black, it was also done by the Demon Pavilion.
