Chapter 483: Gifts

β€”β€”The rosewood door of Fengqi Mountain opened, and the quiet atmosphere retreated three feet. The crane-haired and white-bearded old man sat alone on the right seat of the bluestone table, and there were already two cups of tea on the table, one on the left and one on the right.

Visitors from afar stood in front of the door, looked at the old man in the temple with great respect, and after a moment of silence, slowly walked into the temple. Despite his deliberate lightness, subtle footsteps resounded on the ground, as if to break the long-standing silence of the place. The unknown man wearing the dragon mask walked into the ancient temple like this, stepped on the subtle three steps, and happened to stop nine steps away from the old man, and then bowed to the old man and said softly.

"I've seen the old gentleman. The juniors came from afar and disturbed. The unknown man didn't say his name, and he still wore the vicious dragon mask. He remembered Kong Ming's entrustment, and he must not let anyone know his identity and mission. "Please sit down, no need to be polite." Jiang Shang didn't say anything, still with a kind face, and then waved his hand and invited an unknown person nine steps away to take a seat. The unknown person glanced at Jiang Shang, bowed respectfully again, and then walked to the left of the bluestone table, and sat down lightly.

"There is only ordinary tea and fresh water in the mountains, which makes the knights smile.

Jiang Shang looked at the dragon face mask on the man's face and said with a light smile. Then he held up the cup of tea in front of him and took a sip. The man also replied by holding the teacup in front of him, but he never raised the tea, and he couldn't drink tea with a mask on his face. He just looked at the pale cyan fragrance in the cup, pinched his fingers on Shiraishi's teacup, and faintly touched the warmth of the tea. The temperature of the tea is just right. It seems that the old man not only knew that he was coming, but also scored exactly the same amount of time when he came.

The man then raised his gaze slightly, and looked at the old man in front of him quietly through the eye holes of the dragon mask. His left hand was clenched tightly under the cover of the white robe, and the old man in front of him was just calm and kind, no different from ordinary people in his old age. When Jiang Shang took a sip of tea and put the teacup back on the table, the man immediately removed his sharp gaze, blinked his eyes, and then looked at the old man with that face wearing a dragon mask and asked.

"The old gentleman should be almost eighty, right?" "Hehehe, my old bones are older than the knight thinks. This year is already ninety-nine. Jiang Shang said with a smile.

"Ninety-nine." The man's voice was indeed slightly surprised, and then sighed again, "Then you will be in your old age next year." ”

"The old gentleman is about to turn 100 years old, which is commendable." "Hey, the world is chaotic, it's impossible to say if you can survive until next year." Jiang Shang said with a sigh, but there was no trace of sadness between the folds of his eyebrows. The old gentleman laughed. Fengqi Mountain is far away from the world, and you are not stained with dust, which is the chaos of the world, and what does it have to do with you? The man whispered. You can't say that. Jiang Shang smiled, and then said.

"Fengqi Mountain is also a part of the world. If the storm is coming, how can I stay out of it? Hearing the old man's words, the man stopped gloomily, and at the same time, the gaze in his eyes couldn't help but be shocked. He was a little jealous in his heart, and he didn't know what to say. "However, my old bones, if they really fall into the wind, I'm afraid they will be blown away in a burst." Jiang Shang suddenly smiled again.

The man just pinched the teacup and smiled without saying a word. Jiang Shang looked at the sudden restraint of the man in front of him, and after being silent for a moment, he said: "The chivalrous man came to Fengqi Mountain from afar, there should be something important." After Jiang Shangyi's reminder, the man suddenly came back to his senses, so he said loudly: "That's right, the old gentleman reminded me that there is indeed something important coming here." ”

"What's the matter? If you don't get in the way, you can talk to me. Jiang Shangqian said with a smile. Then the man wearing the dragon mask looked at the old man with a serious gaze and said in a deep voice. "I was entrusted by someone to come to Fengqi Mountain to find the old gentleman, you." "Me? Is there anything you want me to do? Jiang Shang stroked his white beard and asked with a little surprise. He was entrusted by the man to bring a gift to the old gentleman. With that, the man took out a brown wooden box with a wide palm from his white robe, held it in both hands, and solemnly placed it on the bluestone table.

Jiang Shang looked at the ten-inch wooden box on the table, his eyes were frozen for a moment, and then he looked at the man wearing the dragon mask and asked, "May I ask the knight, who is entrusted by him?" The man looked at the old man three feet away, and after pondering for a moment, he still said aloud. There is a Mr. Wolong in Wollongong, Shu Road, Jinyuan, I don't know if the old gentleman can have "Oh...... Heard heard, heard. Jiang Shang sighed, "It is rumored that Zhuge Kongming, who is in the Shu Dao of Jinyuan, has outstanding wisdom and is like a god. ”

"It's just that I haven't known this Mr. Zhuge yet, why did he ask you to come all the way to give me a gift?" Jiang Shang looked at the man and asked. "I don't know about this. I'm just a friend of Kong Ming, entrusted by others, and loyal to others. "Does the knight know what's in this box?" Jiang Shang stared at the ordinary wooden box on the table and asked again.

The man shook his head and said, "Of course I don't dare to open the gift that Kong Ming gave to the old gentleman, so I don't know." "Can I open it now?" Jiang Shang asked tentatively. "The gift has been delivered to you, of course, at your disposal." The man nodded. Jiang Shang didn't hesitate, so in front of the man, he stretched out his hand full of wrinkles, and gently pressed on the small lock of the wooden box, and directly opened the silent brown wooden box.

As soon as the wooden box was opened, a strange dark luster suddenly burst out of his eyes, lingering in the depths of Jiang Shang and the unknown person's sight. With a hint of surprise, Jiang Shang calmly opened the wooden box with his fingers, allowing the strange black light to be completely exposed to the afternoon sun. For a moment, both Jiang Shang and unknown people couldn't help but be shocked. Especially unbelievable, through the eye holes of the dragon mask, his eyes burned almost instantly. Staring at the black light quietly emitted from the wooden box, he couldn't believe that Kong Ming had sent him this thing. "β€”Demon Dragon Crystal! It turned out to be a magic dragon crystal! ”

The man subconsciously exclaimed in his heart. Even he didn't expect that the contents of the box would be a piece of Demon Kongming, why did he do this? What exactly does he want to do? The man knew that everything Kong Ming did had an inevitable reason and purpose, but he really couldn't figure out what kind of purpose he needed to send out a magic dragon crystal! That's a magic dragon crystal! A dragon crystal that can forcibly extend the life of any creature by 10%! For people, it is a treasure that directly extends life for ten years!

In this world, I don't know how many people are desperate to pursue the path of immortality in order to prolong their lives. In the years of history, countless people were obsessed with the power of the Demon Dragon Crystal, but the number of Tyrant Dragons was too rare, and its power was too strong, with the power of human beings, it was difficult to obtain a piece of it with great resources. And once the dragon is really killed and the magic dragon crystal is obtained, it will inevitably cause countless bloody disputes, because there is only one magic dragon crystal, and there are countless people who want to live for ten more years. Selfishness, greed, lust, killing, everything will arise from this. Therefore, in the world, once the magic dragon crystal appears, it is bound to be a sky-high price. Eyes from all sides will gather, and countless powerful wrists will be stretched out in secret.

So that little piece of crystal, in addition to the powerful life force, also buried the root of all the evil in human nature. Therefore, even a man can't understand why Kong Ming would give such a valuable thing to this old man on Fengqi Mountain.
