Chapter 23 Dilemma and Transaction
"Hah...... I am also in a hurry to go to the doctor, so I will believe such nonsense, even you, the dignified King of Martial Arts, are so sick that you have taken the desperate road of turning into a god, how can the Divine Book of Refining the Body be hidden in the palace? The King of Thieves closed his eyes and looked lonely, as if he didn't have the heart to look at someone Duan. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Since even the famous thief king believed in it before, then there must be many martial artists who followed the trend, and I also asked the thief king to reveal the approximate number, so that the king can be prepared."
"Ready?" The King of Thieves left no room to comment on the Wuyou Palace, "Unless that general can lead the army back now, the people of the rivers and lakes who heard the wind will rush up, even if you can build an iron wall, it will not escape destruction." ”
"Is the situation really that serious?" Duan Ping was suspicious, he connected what he had seen and heard, thinking that this was someone who wanted him to die, and if it was really as serious as the thief king said, if the palace had to be put in, wouldn't this be killing 800 enemies and losing 1,000?
"The Book of Refining Bodies" has disappeared for more than 100 years, and its prestige has not diminished and increased, and it is not without rumors of birth in previous years, although it has been proved to be false afterwards, but a lot of bloody storms have broken a lot of real swords and guns, and countless heroes have died. Also, don't forget who your ancestors are, many revenge seeking forces have long wanted to hit the door. ”
The words of the thief king made Duan's cheeks hot, when the horse stepped on the mountains and rivers, exterminated many sects, and also planted many hidden dangers: "Does the thief king have a way to resolve it?" ”
"There are no more than two kinds, either to prove that the palace does not have a refining book, or to take out the refining book." The king of thieves closed his eyes and talked eloquently, "The former, as long as you are willing to give up your face and temporarily defect to the Qingluan Palace, and let the people of the rivers and lakes search at will, you may be able to escape the catastrophe." As for the latter? ”
The thief king shook his head, the meaning was obvious, and he felt a little sorry for himself for the first time: "I think that my dignified thief king should be free in the world, but he was burdened by a chronic illness, and went to Guanghan Palace, Dinglin Temple, and Confucius Academy to borrow strange books, but they were all beaten out by the masters of the three sects, and finally had no chance with the strange book of refining the body, it's just God's will." ”
"This is indeed providence!"
Duan Pingsheng nodded, and suddenly asked, "What if ...... news of the birth of the Book of Refining Bodies is true?" ”
The thief king suddenly opened his eyes, his essence flickered, and Duan Pingsheng was dizzy, and then the stack of papers he had just taken out of his arms fell into the thief king's hand. Jia Longyang, who was not far away, was surprised by his prince's words, but the thief king, who had just been locked by the chains, unexpectedly broke free in an instant, and snatched away the paper that recorded the first two articles of the "Body Refining Book". Jia Longyang immediately rushed over, protecting in front of someone Duan, he had already seen the mastery of the thief king, if it weren't for the white-clothed shadow guard that day, he and the Shen Palace and the palace would not be able to leave each other at all, I didn't expect this person's escape skills to be so superb, and the four iron locks dangling in the air couldn't trap him at all.
Yiran didn't move, Duan Pingsheng didn't look at the paper that was taken away, but was very satisfied with Jia Longyang's performance, the latter didn't compete with the thief king, chose to protect himself first, and his attitude was extremely correct, which shows that he is not a short-sighted person. And the thief king over there was anxious to bury his head in the look, his expression was excited and confused, and the more he saw the end, the more uncontrollable the pair of wonderful hands that stole the world trembled, his breath was short, his forehead was sweating, and the calm bearing of being in prison was gone.
"This book is precious, but like the other three strange books, it is flawed." Duan Pingsheng asked Jia Longyang to stand aside, his expression calm, "However, presumably with the superb means of the thief king, it is not difficult to find the treasures of the whole world, but ordinary people in the rivers and lakes must weigh their own abilities." ”
The thief king finally took his eyes off the "Body Refining Book" and smiled proudly: "What do you mean by this?" In the next place, he took the "Body Refining Book" and hid in a place where no one knew, and the people in the martial arts wanted to covet this book. ”
"No, no, no." Duan Pingsheng stared at the eyes of the thief king, "The upper and poorer blue fall into the Yellow Spring, the rivers and lakes are vast, and we can finally find your whereabouts." ”
The King of Thieves immediately stopped looking at the "Body Refining Book", looked at Duan in disbelief, and felt more and more that he was not without purpose, thinking that this person had contact with the Han family sisters, and knew that his identity was exposed. Kill somebody to do away with a witness? The king of thieves has no such plans, the master of the palace with terrifying martial arts must be on guard in secret, he was only succeeded by that person because of his concern for Han Xiao, and now if he escapes with all his heart, there is at least a fifty percent chance of leaving the palace, but in this case, his niece will definitely be trapped in the palace, and Biluo Villa will also be frantically besieged by the martial arts heroes.
Jia Longyang was a little strange, he didn't understand why the thief king had changed his expression.
Seeing the entanglement on the thief king's face, Duan Pingsheng smiled slightly, even though he was famous, once his own life was concerned, he would be no different from others. Duan deliberately did not say a word, and when he made the final decision, there were only three choices in front of him, give up, kill or leave with the treasure, and choose to give up to talk about it, and the latter two can make the thief king irreversible, he has this certainty.
In the end, reason still took over the identity, and the thief king asked gloomily, "What are you having?" ”
"Huh." Duan Pingsheng smiled, "It's just a transaction." ”
"How to trade?" The robber's four eyebrows moved.
"Tonight, the thief king who was waiting for the opportunity to move successfully won the "Body Refining Book", broke the house and left, the martial arts people heard the wind and moved, and they have inquired about the whereabouts of the thief king, but the thief king is superb, and he can't find it for a long time, but he suddenly learned that someone found the strange book of body refining, and then a group of heroes competed, only to know that this person only had a few words in his hand, it turned out that it was the thief king who exchanged him for ten taels of gold with a word of refining meat."
As soon as the words fell, I saw the thief king crying and laughing: "So you want to do this kind of business!" ”
"Those who wish take the bait."
The thief king thought about it carefully for a long time, and felt that although it sounded ridiculous at first glance, it was not a fool's dream, and the key to it was that in addition to his clever tongue and tricking them into spending this unjust money willingly, it also lies in whether these people in the rivers and lakes can take out these ten taels of gold, but then again, the poor are rich and martial, and there should always be some gold if they can't get silver.
When Jia Longyang heard this, his first reaction was that he also felt a little unreliable, but he immediately realized that this was probably the last resort for his prince to fill the hole in the grain and salary, and it was also related to his own future, so he couldn't help but worry about the attitude of the thief king, but the thief king was a little lukewarm: "And whether it works out or not, you are letting me smash my own signboard!" ”
"Compared with the life of the net worth, the signboard is not more than Erer, and it can be erected again if it is smashed, and these rough warriors can still hit your lair?"
Before the king of thieves could reply, his hands suddenly shook, and the stack of papers containing the refining book was hidden by him, and then he jumped slightly, and in a snap of his fingers, his hands and feet were locked again and hung in the air. At this time, there was a slight sound of footsteps in the distance of the dungeon, Duan Pingsheng's mind was smart, and he immediately shouted: "This king repeats, go to Linglong Pavilion to steal 50,000 taels of silver, and order someone to let you go, don't know how to lift!" ”
The bald Zhou Tai, who heard the sound, immediately stopped, his little eyes rolled again and again, and continued to eavesdrop.
The king of thieves resolutely responded: "If you go out of the dragon pool and enter the tiger's den, both ends will die, it is better to die in this dungeon!" ”
"Humph!" Duan Pingsheng snorted coldly, brushed his sleeves and left, "Since that's the case, you can fend for yourself." ”
"Let's ...... slowly," the thief king's voice hesitated a little, and he stopped talking, "Let's sum it up and give the prince a satisfactory answer tomorrow." ”
Duan Pingsheng looked back at the thief king, smiled slightly and nodded lightly: "I hope so, Commander Jia, let's go back!" ”
Hearing Jia Longyang's angry response, Zhou Tai pouted, now that he is the commander of the palace, he is no longer Jia Longyang! Hmph, it turns out that you are planning to do this, I will go to tell Madame, let you fall short, and know who is the heaven in the palace! Taking advantage of the fact that Duan Pingsheng and the two had not yet come, Zhou Tai smiled and ran away.
Back at the door of the dungeon, seeing the trembling guards, Duan and Jia Longyang glanced at each other and walked away. Halfway through, he accepted a mission that had existed for a hundred years.
[Hint: Do you accept the accompanying quest "The Doctor's Will"?] 】
Mission Name: The Doctor's Will
Description: Spread the Book of Refining to the world and save the common people.
Quest Rewards: Subject to completion.
In addition to the main quests that must be completed and the side quests that serve as shortcuts, there are also many special quests including companion quests, and some strange objects will have a "special" hint after their names, and these items often have their own stories, so they will produce companion quests. "The Legacy of the Medical Immortal" is the accompanying task of "The Book of Body Refining", and behind it, there is naturally an exclusive plot.
In the era of Duan Pingsheng's life, there were four strange books emerging in the rivers and lakes that had improved slightly, three of which belonged to the three religions, but the "Book of Refining Bodies" was written by a living medical immortal. This medical immortal is kind-hearted, his original intention is to make this book widely circulated, so that the world can strengthen the body, and since then he has not been plagued by disease, but after the book was completed, the medical fairy disappeared for some reason, and the person who got the book not only did not have the idea of helping the world, but secretly hid it, and was coveted by chance, and the strange book failed to benefit the world, but because of its name, it set off a brutal fight, and was finally suppressed by Duan Pingsheng's troops, which fell into his hands.
After reading the "Book of Refining Bodies" in his life during that period, he really admired the reputation of the medical immortals, but the immortal spirit was too heavy and did not understand people's hearts. There are three articles on refining the body, the first one is good for refining meat, it is just a superficial and easy-to-understand health preservation technique, and diligent exercise can indeed keep people away from ordinary diseases. But the last two articles are not so simple, all kinds of precious and rare things, even Duan Ping's life to death has not been able to find all, if this book spreads, not to say whether it is good or bad, at least the ginseng of Changbai Mountain will have to be hollowed out.
Save the people? I'm afraid it will become a disaster for the world.
At that time, Duan Pingsheng hid it out of a little selfishness, and now the palace is worried about internal and external troubles, just pushing the boat down the river, killing two birds with one stone!
And in Mrs. Xuanhua's bedroom, the bald commander Zhou Taizheng complacently reported what he had heard, Song Zhi heard it, and immediately sneered three times: "What tricks can I have when you are you, it turns out that you are planning to collude with the king of thieves?" Haha, how could you get into a loophole? Commander Zhou! ”
Groveling, Zhou Tai hurriedly responded: "The little one is here!" ”
"You will talk to the thief king on behalf of the palace, let him pretend to cater first, and then then the waste army will be in the army, in addition, you must not forget to inform the boss of Zhenlong Pavilion and beware of thieves." Song Zhi smiled at the corner of his mouth, and ordered in a cold voice, and Zhou Tai immediately retreated.
Xian Xianyu held the vacancy list after the liquidation of the account room in her hand, and Song Zhi sneered: "The deficit of 20,000 taels of silver, this palace wants to ask you to fill it with your head!" ”
