Chapter Eighty-Six: The Chamber of Secrets
When the big scalper came out, Erhei was already running here with Qian Jin on his back, Qian Jin's eyes were closed, and his face was calm, as if he had fallen asleep.
Qian Wanneng, who was left behind, wiped the sweat on his forehead, gasped, and complained: "This kid looks lean, I didn't expect his legs and feet to be so sharp, I can't keep up at all." ”
Qin Shaoyan looked at Er Hei and anxiously carried the money back to the store, and said, "It seems that this guy of your uncle is quite loyal, and the expression on his face doesn't look like a disguise." ”
When Qian Wanneng heard this, he immediately straightened his waist and said proudly: "You don't understand this, this sect is business-oriented, and it is never stingy with people who work under him." If you do well, you won't be treated badly, and you will have no worries about food and clothing for a lifetime, that is basic, if you give others good food and drink, can others not work for you. ”
Qin Shaoyan shook his head and replied: "It's not so simple, that Erhei's anxious look after hearing the news, and even not hesitating to expose his true strength in front of us, shouldn't be done by an ordinary loyal subordinate." ”
Qian Wanneng waved his hand, not wanting to argue about this topic anymore, he patted the big scalper who was standing in place and secretly sad and comforted: "Don't be sad, the Qingling Grass that my uncle promised you, you can also go to Erhei to ask for it." ”
When the big scalper heard this, he immediately came to his senses, and he smiled: "Yes, why didn't I think of it." After saying that, he happily ran to the store.
Qian Wanneng was dumbfounded, shook his head helplessly, greeted Qin Shaoyan and Chen An, and entered the store.
Qian Jin was carried into his room by Erhei, the room was full of various books, and it was more like a room for dealing with affairs than a place to rest.
Erhei opened the books stacked on the bed, cleared out a place for Qian Jin to lie down, and then stretched out his hand to investigate Qian Jin's physical condition.
The big scalper stepped forward and asked with concern: "Erhei, is Master Qian okay?" ”
Erhei put down his hand and said with a sigh of relief: "It's okay, it's just that the supernatural power consumes too much spiritual power, just take a rest." ”
The big scalper let out a long sigh, and then stood in place, Erhei looked at the big scalper curiously, and asked, "Do you have anything else?"
The big scalper said with a smile: "When I went to the Commander's Mansion to find your shopkeeper, I found that your shopkeeper was trapped in a formation, which was extremely difficult to crack, and it took me a lot of effort to open a hole with brute force, so that your shopkeeper escaped, and your shopkeeper was very happy to escape, saying that he would send me a cart of Qingling grass to eat." ”
When Erhei heard this, he held his chin with his hand in confusion, and said secretly in his heart: "When did the shopkeeper become so generous? ”
"I can't take out a cart of Qingling Grass, I can't give it to you until the shopkeeper wakes up, I only have a small box of Qingling Grass in my hand now, do you want it." Erhei wiped the metal ring around his neck, and a delicate green jade box appeared in his hand.
Seeing this, the big scalper immediately accepted it happily, lowered his head slightly, and motioned to Erhei to hang the jade box on the horns. Erhei did so, and then the horn flashed red, and the jade box was suddenly included in the space inside the horn.
Chen An and his entourage walked in, and when they saw the picture of the big scalper accepting the jade box, Chen An stood in place and carefully looked at the two horns of the big scalper, with a greedy light in his eyes.
Qian Wanneng asked about the situation of Erhei Qian Jin, and was relieved to hear that Qian Jin was fine, and then asked the big scalper with a happy face: "Brother Niu, did my uncle say anything to you on the way to you." ”
The big scalper came back to his senses by Qian Wann's question, and after thinking for a while, he replied: "The money shopkeeper wants me to tell you that what you want is not in his hands, so let you go back to the store and think about it." ”
Qian Wanneng was stunned when he heard this, and said bluntly: "Isn't this equivalent to not saying it, it's not in his hands, and he wants me to go back to the store to think." After thinking for a moment, he spread his hands and said, "Then I'd better wait for my uncle to wake up, he's already back anyway." ”
As soon as everyone heard that there was some truth, they didn't plan to continue thinking about it, and there was a tendency to leave.
At this time, Chen An suddenly said: "Erhei, how long will it take for the money shopkeeper to wake up." ”
Erhei replied: "The shopkeeper is mentally depleted, generally speaking, you can wake up after four or five days of rest." ”
"Four or five days! so long!" Qian Wanneng exclaimed.
"What? are you in a hurry?" Erhei wondered.
"We can only stay in the Moro realm for three days, and today is the second day, and we can't wait for your shopkeeper to wake up. Qin Shaoyan explained.
"Otherwise, let's think about what the money shopkeeper means, Erhei, the money shopkeeper said to go back to the store and think about it, and among us who are most familiar with this store, only you and Brother Qian are the only ones, so you carefully recall whether the shopkeeper has told you anything, or handed you something. Chen An paused, turned to Qian Wanneng and continued: "Brother Qian, you should also think about it carefully. ”
When the two heard this, they felt that Chen An's analysis had some truth, so they thought hard about it in the same place.
The big scalper raised his front hooves and patted Chen An's shoulder, and said, "Okay, boy, I usually look at you stupidly, but I didn't expect you to be so smart." ”
Chen An said modestly: "I learned it all from Brother Niu." ”
The big scalper was stunned when he heard this, put down the front hooves on Chen An's shoulder, and said with a smile: "You are too modest." ”
At this time, Erhei seemed to remember something, and suddenly shouted: "By the way, the shopkeeper took me to a secret room ten days ago, and that secret room is in the store, but I never knew it." And the secret room was also very weird, there was nothing in it except a pile of black soil. ”
"Take us to see it!" Chen An suggested.
Erhei nodded, "You come with me." ”
Everyone followed Erhei out of the room and came to a room at the end of the corridor where miscellaneous items were piled up. "The money shopkeeper brought me here last time. Erhei pointed to the door and said.
Chen An stepped forward and easily opened the door, and there was nothing in it except a pile of dilapidated tables and chairs.
"That thing is placed here?" Chen An asked suspiciously.
"Let me see, let me see. The big scalper squeezed to Chen An's side, looked inside, took a deep breath, and then snorted, and said: "Although it is clean here, there are many impurities floating in the air, it should have not been ventilated for a long time, have you forgotten the place." ”
Erhei shook his head and said, "It's here, I won't be mistaken." Then, as if to verify his idea, he leaned down in front of the door and sniffed it carefully, and then said firmly: "That's right, this is it." ”
The big scalper smiled: "Are you a dog, go smell it." ”
Erhei said angrily: "Yes, believe it or not, I bite you." After speaking, he opened his mouth, revealing sharp teeth at the corners of his mouth.
Seeing this, the big yellow cow had always held its own hard body, and it felt some pain for no reason, and did not dare to speak again.
Qian Wanneng interrupted: "Okay, okay, don't quarrel first, since Erhei is so sure, it means that we did come here, but the way it was opened is not right, Erhei, how did my uncle take you in at that time." ”
Erhei thought about it carefully and replied: "At that time, the shopkeeper stuck an iron piece on the door, and then opened it six times inward, three times outward, and then opened it again and we went in." ”
"Iron piece, is this the case?" Qian Wanneng picked up the tap yuan hanging around his neck and shook it, Erhei looked at it carefully and nodded.
Qian Wanneng took off the tap yuan and inserted it into a gap in the door, which was just the size of the tap yuan to enter.
Qian Wanneng pushed the door and found that the door could be opened both inside and out, as Erhei said, so he opened it inward and closed it, repeated it six times, and then opened it outward and closed it, repeated it three times, and when it was opened for the last time, the appearance inside suddenly changed.
A step leading to the ground appeared in front of everyone, Qian Wanneng and Er Hei glanced at each other, they both saw the joy in each other's eyes, and when they were about to enter, Chen An, who was standing at the door, took the lead and walked down.
"Chen An, be careful, that thing is very evil. Qian Wanneng saw Chen An go straight in like this, and shouted worriedly.
Chen An didn't seem to hear it, he didn't look back, and walked down by himself, Qin Shaoyan noticed Chen An's strange appearance at this time, and stepped forward to stop Chen An, but found that his figure was like a ghost and disappeared at the steps.
The big scalper also realized that something was wrong with Chen An and followed closely. The three people outside noticed something unusual at this time, and Qian Wanneng shouted: "Something is wrong!" and hurriedly rushed down, and Er Hei and Qin Shaoyan also rushed away.
The big yellow cow used all four legs, almost jumped down the steps, and when it landed on the flat ground, a strange fragrance hit, and the big yellow cow said in his heart: "It's not good." "Quickly shrink the wings of your nose and bring your ears together and press them against your head.
At this time, Qian Wanneng and the three of them also went down the steps, and the big scalper looked back and said in surprise: "Old toad, big stupid bear, why are you here too." When he saw Erhei, he suddenly said angrily: "You guy who doesn't know whether you are alive or dead, you still dare to come to me, last time you ran fast, this time see how your grandfather Niu trampled you to death." ”
After speaking, the big scalper rushed towards Erhei, Erhei was inexplicable, but when he saw the situation of the big scalper, he didn't dare to take it hard, and hurriedly dodged to the side.
The big scalper hit the wall of the secret room, the stone was made of unknown material, but it was also hard, and it was hit by the big scalper, only some cracks appeared.
"Big Yellow Cow, what are you crazy about!" Er Hei was a little frightened, pointing at the big yellow cow and said angrily.
The big yellow cow didn't seem to hear Erhei's call, he lowered his head, raised his front hooves and kept hitting the ground, Qin Shaoyan observed for a moment, and shouted: "Erhei, the big yellow cow may have been hit by an illusion, don't collide with it head-on, find a way to trap it." ”
Erhei saw that the big scalper had finished accumulating his strength, and was about to launch the next offensive, so he hurriedly looked around, but saw that it was empty, and there was no place to be trapped.
Moo!
The big yellow bull rushed towards Erhei quickly, and thunder rose from under his hooves, and the speed was so fast that Erhei could not react. Just as he was about to collide, a star chain wrapped around the hind feet of the big yellow cow, causing the big yellow cow's figure to stop abruptly and smash straight to the ground.
Qin Shaoyan was slammed on the wall by the huge force on the big scalper, and he felt that the bones in his body were about to fall apart.
The big scalper struggled to get up, Qian Wanneng jumped high, pressed his whole body on the big scalper's body, and the bracer of his left hand glowed, pressing the big scalper to the ground for a while and couldn't move.
"Hurry up, this bull is so strong, I can't hold it back!" Qian Wanneng shouted almost with all his strength.
Erhei calmed down at this time, did not run away, and took out two vials and a sharp knife from his arms. The knife cut into his hand, and the blood flowed, and Erhei put the blood in a white vial, and then poured out the powder in another vial and poured it on the wound, and the wound healed instantly.
"Young Sect Master, be careful!" Erhei shouted, and then splashed the blood in the vial towards the big scalper.
Blood spilled on the big scalper's eyes, causing it to gradually fall silent.
"Hey, why am I lying on the ground. You want to crush me, go down!" The big scalper shouted after regaining consciousness and feeling the abnormality around him.
Qian Wanneng scolded and stood up from the big scalper, and said, "You think I want to press you, the dead cow looks thin and small, but the strength is so big." ”
The big scalper snorted, knowing that he had been tricked by the illusion just now, and he didn't dare to say anything, Qin Shaoyan got up from the ground at this time, rubbed his waist, and said, "Chen An." ”
The big yellow cow suddenly woke up, and hurriedly stood up and wanted to run into the depths of the secret room, but at this time, Chen An walked out of it slowly.
"Who are you!, where did you hide my brother?" questioned the big scalper.
"Brother, Brother Niu, am I not your brother. Chen An opened his mouth wide and said in surprise.
The big yellow cow sneered and said, "Don't pretend to be a calf with me here, the strange fragrance you put just now is from the phantom flower, now that I think about it, the money shopkeeper should still be in the courtyard." At that time, as soon as I entered, I asked about a strange fragrance, I just thought that the magic flower was destroyed, and I didn't care, but I didn't expect it to be a Tao. ”
Chen An's face was full of grievances, and he stood in place and said to the big scalper: "Brother Niu, you really misunderstood me, I was just curious to walk in front, the strange fragrance is from the lotus flower inside, don't believe it." ”
The big scalper didn't look at it, and sneered: "Chen Xiaozi is very stubborn, he only calls me a big scalper, where have you called me Brother Niu." ”
Chen An was silent when he heard this, then opened his hands, and said to the big scalper with sincere eyes: "I have actually always respected you in my heart, so I will change my name to call you Brother Niu, since you don't believe me, it's better for you to kill me." ”
Chen An turned his head and said to Qian Wanneng: "Brother Qian, I didn't touch the things inside, the lotus flower is still in it." ”
Qian Wanneng didn't answer, and walked silently to the room, and Erhei followed. Chen An said to Qin Shaoyan again: "Brother Qin, you have always been the person I respect the most, even you don't believe me." ”
Qin Shaoyan was speechless, unable to make a judgment for a while, Chen An looked sad and said astringently: "Since this is the case, then you can lock me up as a bad person." ”
At this time, Qian Wanneg's voice suddenly came from inside, "Death Lotus!
Even if Qin Shaoyan, who was indifferent, heard these three words, it was difficult to maintain a calm state of mind.
Walk briskly into the depths of the chamber.
The big scalper laughed and said, "Good brother, I blame you by mistake." ”
Chen An was also full of joy: "Yes, my innocence has been proven." ”
A person and a cow seemed to be just as reconciled as ever and walked towards each other, just when the two sides were still two steps away from each other, something happened suddenly!
Chen An's head turned into a huge man-eating flower, and when it opened its blood, it swallowed towards the big yellow cow.
And the two seemed to cooperate tacitly, at the same time that Chen An's head turned into a man-eating flower, the big scalper's mouth suddenly opened, becoming even bigger than the man-eating flower, and opened its big mouth to eat away.
