Shi Wuqi pretended to be in a bad mood and followed them to the back room to rest. The man in charge gave him good tea and water to serve, and let him tell him whatever he wanted. It's a bit of a house arrest atmosphere, he thought to himself. Until he calmly drove them out of the door, he was still flustered, not really afraid that he was in danger here, but that he was wary of something else.

Why is Hunter so sure he'll be here in the near future? He even mentioned himself to Miss Yuting, which is no coincidence. He felt that he was caught up in an elaborate conspiracy. With Gao Yuejun's ability to know the affairs of the world, maybe he really knows the itinerary when they come.

Now the question is, is it the monster's own will to see him, or is it the intention of his master?

He could almost imagine that Shanhai walked out of the door frowning and finding the girls, briefly summarizing what had happened, telling them not to worry. The girls, perhaps like the mountains and seas, say that they are fine, and they are a little worried in their hearts. But as long as Qi was with them, he would know how far away they were, and they would know that he was okay.

While he was pondering, there was a knock on the door. He walked to the door and looked at a shadow about as tall as him. The aura on this person's body was different from what he had seen before, and there was a strong spiritual power lingering on his body. Without asking, he opened the door.

It was a strange man. When the door opened, he did not speak, but saluted. Shi Wuqi also bowed his hands, raising his eyes slightly to look at him. The man wears an ochre-colored robe with a round neck, lined in a slightly darker goose yellow. The stitches of the fabric are fine, and it looks very exquisite. He wore a square bun and had no other extra stuff on him, except for a token around his waist.

The other party straightened up, his face handsome. It's just that he smiled crookedly, barely seeing his eyes, and the corners of his mouth were hooked, making Shi Wuqi look at his face sour.

"Your Excellency, I've heard of the great name for a long time. Come in and sit, shall you? You're welcome to your own territory. ”

Before the other party introduced himself, Shi Wuqi opened his mouth first. At first, he wasn't sure, but when he came face to face, he faintly felt the demonic aura emanating from the other party's body. He wasn't sure if Kyodo had deliberately made him aware of it.

The two entered the room and sat down opposite each other at a boxy wooden table. Hunter Gong Duo poured tea for him, saying that it was a special product brought back from outside. Shi Wuqi smelled it, it was indeed good tea, but he didn't touch the cup. He knew very well that most of Qing Lize's warlocks would have some bizarre Gu techniques, and if they had any non-poisonous and tasteless Gu, it would be difficult to deal with them. Seeing his vigilance, he said softly:

"Don't worry, poisoning in secret is not the way of hospitality."

"Well, I'm so relieved."

As he spoke, he still didn't even glance at the teacup. Miss Qi's breath lightened a little, and he sensed that the mountains and seas should have left safely.

"Shi Gongzi, don't worry, I invite you to meet because of my own meaning. As for why I knew you were here, I naturally asked my colleagues about your actions. Naturally, I asked the Lord of the Shadow Pavilion for advice. I just want to talk to you about the way of life and death, and there is no malice beyond that, so you don't have to worry about it. ”

There is no need to ask without abandonment, he himself has explained clearly, it seems that he is a shrewd guy. The more this happened, the more difficult it was for him to deal with.

"It's like kidnapping, it's really insincere."

"Isn't it sincere enough that I let go of your beloved?"

Shi Wuqi was silent on the surface, his heart tightened, and he understood the meaning of these words - from the past to the present, even the mountains and seas and their movements, the Shadow Pavilion also knew clearly. If there is a slight mistake in this conversation, they are in danger.

He can't just ask "what are you going to do", in such an atmosphere, the first one who can't hold his breath will lose.

"It's really not enough. You'll have to answer me a few more questions. ”

"It's right that you have doubts, even if you ask."

"Then I'll be blunt—I naturally know that the Shadow Pavilion knows about the world, but it will always take some time for the news to reach your ears. I don't think you happened to bet on the timing of our visit, but you only found out today. Therefore, it should be a letter from your subordinates. I don't understand, how did they tell you so quickly and let you rush back? ”

Hunting Gongduo tilted his face slightly, as if he guessed that he would ask this. Still smiling, he took off the token from his waist and handed it to Shi Wuqi's hands with both hands. Wu Qi also took it with both hands and looked at it carefully.

This long pentagonal token has gold lacquer written on it, indicating the identity of the owner of the gold sand estate. On the back is a dignified character "Duo". He suddenly noticed that there was an inconspicuous piece of metal at the lower end of the token, like a flexible buckle. He looked up at Ka Gongduo, and did not mean to stop him, he gently broke the clasp open, and pulled a small box from between the already thin wooden tokens, like a delicate little drawer.

Inside is a smart petal, sealed in solidified transparent glass, embedded inside. The petals were shaped like a girl's skirt, white in the center, with a circle of inky black on the edges, and the rest of the area was golden. It is very beautiful, in this glass, the arc of life is frozen in it. And he could still feel that the aura of this petal was very complex, some of which it exuded by itself, and some of which were infused.

"Shi Gongzi knows the six spiritual veins?"

"Hmm......"

Was it a spiritual vein? Very few humans can find and enter the spiritual vein, and even if they do, it is difficult not to get lost in the six realms and find their way back. Only the six realms of impermanence and some monsters can walk through it.

"We have a spirit butterfly to deliver letters. I received a message and came back directly from the spiritual vein. This token protects us and completely hides the aura of things that don't belong here. ”

"You guys."

Shi Wuqi emphasized these two words.

"Shi Gongzi is discerning."

Hunter Gongduo smiled and took the sign he pushed back, and pinned it back to his waist. He took an unhurried sip of tea and told him:

"You must know that the Pavilion Master has five henchmen. Gold, wood, water, fire, earth, yellow, blue, blue, red and white, we are one for each person. ”

“…… Is this flower a Sumire Hua? ”

"Exactly."

Shi Wuqi didn't know about Yun Ge - he hadn't traveled with Daoist Rin at that time. He didn't ask about the person he mentioned in the silver jewelry shop, so naturally he didn't know about the flower. But he knew that the Wa Jinhua was very precious, and the price on the black market was ridiculously high. He had a Soul Resurrection Pill, and he even carried it with him. In the elixir, there is dried Wa Jinhua's powder, which is very rare, and it was exchanged with him by a former guest. It's just that this Soul Resurrection Pill doesn't really bring people back to life, it's only useful for people who have just died, and it's only for a moment.

Otherwise, he would have used it for Ah Qi a long time ago.

The Shadow Pavilion actually had a complete flower, and it was made into such a strange spiritual object. Wa Jinhua has a lot to do with Nuwa's theory of creating people, and it can indeed suppress the demonic energy on the monster. In this way, something makes sense.

Hunting Gongduo said again, "A long time ago, Ruyue-kun came to visit the Shadow Pavilion. She wanted to draw what she looked like...... Naturally, there is no chance. I heard that she went to Jintong Township to try her luck a while ago, and I hope she has gained something. ”

Liu Xue Xie Ruyue Jun, he knows a little bit about it. If she really painted Wa Jinhua into it, the flowers in this world would also be gone.

"I see. So...... Next question: You taught the Yuting girl how to drive out the corpse? ”

"Who?"

Although he was still smiling, he was obviously a little confused, and he didn't look like he was pretending. Shi Wuqi didn't answer him, and left him alone to meditate for a while.

"Ahh......h I remember, you mean the girl herding sheep outside town? ”

"Not bad."

"I'm sorry, I've taught so many people I can't remember exactly. Hey, naturally you have to cast a wide net to touch you. By the way, let the reputation of the Lord of the Hundred Bones also spread among people. ”

"That's so thankful." Shi Wuqi's face was expressionless, but his tone was sarcastic.

In the game between merchants and merchants, he felt that he did not need unnecessary modesty. That's all for the layman, and in private, there's no need to be so polite. What's more, he doesn't have a good impression of the person in front of him, this monster.

"You're welcome. Do you have any more questions? ”

"The last one," Shi Wuqi raised an index finger, "It's not a question, it should be said, it's a confirmation of a question." ”

"Shi Gongzi, but it doesn't hurt to say it."

"Whether it's a money bank that circulates dark coins, or a gambling house that clears up the money, I still can't figure out why you have any connection to Qing Lize's famous corpse expulsion technique? What is it for? Could it be a hobby? I wasn't sure it was a bold idea...... Please bear with me if you are offended. ”

"What does Shi Gongzi have in mind? Tell me, I'm really interested in your speculation. ”

"The money house is very close to the gambling house, and you don't have to move around to run a business here. But when I heard that you go out a lot, especially when you go in and out of the six spiritual veins, I am a little suspicious. Until I met with you and noticed that there was more to you than this hidden demonic aura......"

"And?" Ka Gongduo raised his eyebrows slightly.

"The breath of people. But not the living, it's the dead—a lot of dead people. ”

"So?"

"You and some of your subordinates in various places have transported a lot of prohibited goods under the pretext of driving out corpses. This time it should be some precious herbs, I don't know if I am responsible for transporting them or bringing them to Qinglize. It doesn't matter, human corpses can easily pass the scrutiny of various gates. You can easily launder the money you earn in your own territory. ”

Hunter Gongduo suddenly applauded.

"Yes, yes, I really didn't see the wrong person in the next place. is worthy of being the master of a hundred bones, I really admire. So...... I am sure you will be able to help me with anything I want to discuss with you. ”

He slowly opened his eyes, and on the blue-green eyes, the thin vertical pupils were like a black crack, and the smile did not decrease.
