Chapter Seventy-Six: Escape
The moment Xiao Jiansheng grabbed the book, he suddenly felt like a thief, and his heart was pounding, but he didn't hesitate at all, grabbed the square object, quickly stuffed it into his arms, and continued to sweep the other books like a hungry wolf.
Within the scope of his perception, in a book compartment on the top floor, there was something that made his heart flutter.
It's just that at the moment when Xiao Jiansheng's gaze just met the book grid, it was as if the seal of the book suddenly opened like an eye, and suddenly shot out a rippling white light.
The white light came like electricity, covering Xiao Jiansheng's wheel in it, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't break through.
But within the white light, Xiao Jiansheng didn't seem to be in a hurry, so he took out the jade pendant in his arms, like cutting the belly of a fish, and came down from top to bottom, the white light cracked, Xiao Jiansheng rushed out, and carefully hid the jade pendant again.
Xiao Jiansheng glanced at the bookcase regretfully, retreated suddenly, picked up the sleeping Yuanmuyu on the bookcase, and rushed towards the invisible door.
The moment the door opened, a figure blocked the door, his eyes were deep, and he looked at Xiao Jiansheng coldly with a disdainful gaze.
Xiao Jiansheng smiled awkwardly, his steps extremely heavy.
The man laughed and walked straight in.
Xiao Jiansheng was forced to retreat again and again, and returned to the bookcase again, he looked at the old man who came in expressionlessly, both shocked by the high level of the other party, and shocked at the speed of the other party, and his heart was confused for a while.
The old man is burly, wearing a lilac coat, although it is a little old, but the finishing is spotless, his hair is meticulous and meticulous, and his deep eyes are like two deep wells, and he can't see the bottom.
Xiao Jiansheng smiled reluctantly, and said in a low voice: "Did you disturb the senior's Qing Xiu, I'm really sorry, the junior will retreat." ”
The old man took a deep look at the barely cheeky man, then glanced at the empty book, and said slightly angrily: "Report your name!"
Xiao Jiansheng originally wanted to replace it with someone else's name, but after feeling the aura of the old man, he still dispelled that crooked thought, took a breath, forced himself to calm down, and said calmly: "The junior Xiao Jiansheng is actually not what the seniors saw, just out of curiosity......"
The old man waved his hand and sneered: "The momentum of opening the sky that day only broke through the Seven Realms, if the old man is not mistaken, it should be you, right?"
Xiao Jiansheng nodded slightly, there was no need to hide these details in front of the masters.
The old man sneered and suddenly stretched out his hand.
Xiao Jiansheng understood the old man's meaning, but he didn't take it out of his arms to return it, and even his face had no intention of returning it at all, and said with a smile: "After returning, did the seniors allow us to leave?"
The old man smiled faintly and said: "Do you really regard the Ma family as Wuji Palace, not long ago, the dead wood suicide note was stolen, and it has not been whereabouts yet, and today it is the dragon descendant suicide note, your vision is not bad, pick up the good ones and take them, this is compared with that Meng Lingxiao, the old man is really ashamed of your Wuji Palace." ”
Xiao Jiansheng hurriedly shook his head and said: "The seniors are not good at what they say, the juniors only have occasional thoughts, and they have nothing to do with the theft of the dead wood suicide note." ”
The old man was not in a hurry, pulled over a stool and sat down steadily, and sneered: "Then let's talk about it first, how did you break the seal?"
Xiao Jiansheng looked at the old man's face seriously, and when he saw the old man for the first time, he felt a faint familiarity, in addition, he also found that there was a trace of vicissitudes between the old man's expressions, so his eyes were always looking for that feeling between the facial features, and after a few breaths, he hesitated and asked, "The senior is the patriarch of the Ma family?"
Hear this
The old man instinctively moved his mouth, his eyes lit up for a moment, and then he returned to his original demeanor, and said a little impatiently: "Hugh wants to be close to the old man, no matter what sect you come from, and who is behind your orders, today's things are destined to be impossible." ”
Xiao Jiansheng smiled calmly and said, "Do you know Ma Fu seniorly?"
The old man immediately raised his eyebrows, with a strong killing intent in his words, and no longer restrained the momentum on his body, only the oppressed Xiao Jiansheng was blown by the wind, and his body was a little unstable, the old man said: "You shouldn't say that you were instructed by her, right?"
Xiao Jiansheng nodded and said, "Exactly, if the seniors don't believe it, just look at this." ”
As soon as the words fell, Xiao Jiansheng took out the jade pendant and handed it over.
The old man didn't take it, although his eyes were calm, but he looked very seriously, and after a few breaths, he nodded slightly, and said in a hoarse voice: "It is indeed Fu'er's jade pendant." ”
It is not difficult for Xiao Jiansheng to see that although the old man tried his best to calm his face, there was still some regret hidden in it.
Xiao Jiansheng sighed and said: "Before Ma Fu's retreat, she handed me this jade pendant, she said that it is useful to enter the ninth layer, if the junior is not mistaken, the senior is already the current patriarch Ma Xingtian, right?"
Xiao Jiansheng deliberately said the words of the current patriarch very seriously.
Sure enough, the old man gradually put away the killing intent on his body, and suddenly leaned back a little depressed, leaned on the bookcase, and slowly closed his eyes, and then, the atmosphere of the entire ninth floor suddenly became silent.
At this moment, Yuan Muyu was woken up by the sound of the two talking, he looked at the stranger who suddenly appeared, looked a little restrained, looked at Xiao Jiansheng timidly, and asked in a low voice: "Big brother, who is this person?"
Xiao Jiansheng also whispered: "Ma Xingtian, the patriarch of the Ma family." ”
Yuan Muyu shook his head, cautiously glanced at Ma Xingtian, whose eyes were closed, and said in surprise: "The master only said to be careful of Ma Xingtian, and he didn't say Ma Xingtian." ”
Xiao Jiansheng touched the back of Yuanmuyu's head and said with a smile: "Your master is right. ”
Just as the two of them were whispering, Ma Xingtian opened his eyes leisurely, and suddenly changed his tone and said, "What else did Fu'er say to you?"
Xiao Jiansheng thought for a moment and said, "Ma Fu said that she may not leave the retreat for the rest of her life. ”
The loss and vicissitudes on Ma Xingtian's face, as this sentence gradually amplified, did not hide the melancholy between his eyebrows, hummed quietly, and closed his eyes again.
Xiao Jiansheng checked Ma Xingtian's face and said: "Actually, the younger generations have also heard of the Ma family's affairs, if the seniors can really let go, they will also be generous people." ”
Ma Xingtian suddenly got up and said angrily: "Nonsense, how can the Ma family fall into the hands of traitors!"
Then, Ma Xingtian sat down again.
Xiao Jiansheng asked tentatively: "If Ma Fu can successfully enter the ancestral realm, will the position of the predecessor family still be kept?"
Ma Xingtian glanced at Xiao Jiansheng with interest and nodded his head.
Xiao Jiansheng smiled faintly: "How many days can the seniors delay the election and succession of the Ma family?"
Ma Xingtian suddenly became interested, and asked a little impatiently: "Do you want to say that Ma Fu will still be out of the customs?"
Xiao Jiansheng chuckled: "She was drunk that day, and it was the younger generation's doing. ”
Ma Xingtian seemed to have a lot to ask, but he pinched his fingers and counted it, and then his sword eyebrows suddenly rose upside down, as if he sensed some crisis, so he quickly said: "Boy, this is the end of today, leave quickly with your things, that day."
Fu went out of the customs and returned the book that day. ”
Xiao Jiansheng nodded in a trance, feeling a little too sudden.
Then the three of them passed through the invisible door at the fastest speed, going down floor by floor, and at the entrance to the fifth floor, Ma Xingtian left first, Xiao Jiansheng and Yuan Muyu slowed down, and after entering the fifth floor, it was not too early to close according to the Tianji Tower.
Xiao Jiansheng and Yuan Muyu stayed on the fifth floor casually for a while, and then walked out with the crowd, it seemed that many people were satisfied, and a group of people talked and laughed out of the gate of the Ma family, and it was getting late at this time.
Not long after leaving Ma's house, Xiao Jiansheng noticed that a person was following him, passing through the street where people were becoming rarer, and before turning into another street, Xiao Jiansheng stopped, turned to look at a cautious man behind him, and said with a playful smile: "It's been a hard journey, do you want to have a drink together?"
When the man saw that his whereabouts were exposed, he came to Xiao Jiansheng generously and sneered: "I'm afraid it's not appropriate today, three days later, Xu will wait for you under the Four Elephant Castle." ”
Xiao Jiansheng smiled faintly at the man, and then pulled the Yuanmuyu to leave quickly.
On the way, Yuanmuyu reminded in a whisper: "That person has murderous intent in his eyes." ”
Xiao Jiansheng said indifferently: "Before entering the Tianji Tower, I have already noticed him, it should be a member of the Xu family in the Western Wilderness." ”
Yuanmuyu tried to ask, "Then are you still going to the Four Elephant Castle?"
Xiao Jiansheng nodded and said, "Definitely go, the Xu family should be more than him." ”
"The master said that more is better than less. ”
"Then there is something to be divided into, and sometimes, when one thing is solved, one thing is missing. ”
"Big brother, shall we go there now, and meet those beautiful sisters?"
"Actually, this is not the place where children should go. ”
"The fish is not small anymore, and it will definitely not make those sisters angry. ”
When night came, Tianfu City was covered in joy, and red lanterns were hung all over the streets and alleys.
Xiao Jiansheng and Yuanmuyu confirmed the route while walking, and after about a stick of incense, they had come to the street where the source of the living water was located, Xiao Jiansheng once said that he would no longer come to this kind of place, but after getting along with Ma Fu that day, he didn't seem to hate this kind of red and willow green place, but I didn't know if Ma Fu had changed its owner here after the retreat.
The two walked in through the spacious gate, it seems that the business of the source of living water is still very good, there are a lot of people coming and going, basically some children of the family and some inconspicuous characters in the rivers and lakes, and they came here in a hurry to buy drunk, so it led to the very ordinary combination of Xiao Jiansheng and Yuanmuyu to the point that no one paid attention to it.
The two of them went up to the third floor in one breath, and finally found a waiter with a fresh face, and sent the two into a room deep into the corridor with their faces, and when they left, they looked at the wooden fish with a strange expression, and their nostrils were facing the sky.
Before leaving, he only said one sentence, the girls are not idle, and the two of them will wait if they are willing.
Wait a minute, Xiao Jiansheng doesn't seem to care much about this, but Yuan Muyu cares, the little guy has been standing at the door against the door frame, waiting for the so-called beautiful sister to appear, until the time when he wants to see through, no one has come to this house.
Xiao Jiansheng paid attention to Yuanmuyu's eyes boredly, and always felt that this little guy was a little precocious, and he seemed to be much more promising. I don't know that after a long time, Xiao Jiansheng and Yuanmuyu were a little sleepy, and at this moment, a pale pink figure appeared at the end of the corridor, looking anxiously as if looking for someone.
