Chapter 964: Finding the Whereabouts of the Wooden Box
After Murong Xi arrived in the front hall, Xuan Liangyue was already waiting at the dinner table.
"Xi'er, are you awake?" Feng Mingye saw Murong Xi come out, got up and walked over.
"Well, seeing that you didn't have a morning backyard, Mo'er said that Xuan Liangyue was here, and you were also in the front hall. I didn't let her tell you that a person came over. Murong Xi said.
"Hungry, huh? Sit down and eat. Feng Mingye got up and pulled Murong Xi to sit down and said.
"Hmm."
The three of them quickly finished eating, and the black crow flew from the sky to the palm of Feng Mingye's hand.
Feng Mingye smiled slightly, and said, "The old man of Northern Xinjiang has news. ”
When Murong Xi heard this, he hurriedly said, "Let's see what he says." ”
Feng Mingye nodded and took the secret letter from the black crow's feet.
After opening MeSign, I found that there were less than ten words written on MeSign. It's just that after Feng Mingye saw it, he smiled at first and seemed to be very happy. Seeing this, Xuan Liangyue and Murong Xi came to Feng Mingye's side. Because they found out from Feng Mingye's expression that what came back must be good news.
Seeing that the two of them were curious, Feng Mingye said: "After listening to our request, the old man of Northern Xinjiang handed over the underground palace to the people of the Yama Palace without saying a word. Now they have started to demolish the dungeon according to your request, and then they have seen the news sent out. ”
If he says yes, he'll be able to find the contents of the box. At that time, we all ignored the treachery of Elder Zheng, who would not have put such an important thing on himself. If I had thought of these earlier, I am afraid that we would have known the secrets inside the wooden box. Murong Guan said with some remorse.
"Xi'er, you don't need to blame yourself. We didn't know that Elder Zheng was so insidious and cunning, and certainly we wouldn't have thought that he would hide the wooden box inside the walls of the dungeon. The most important thing now is not to blame yourself, but to wait for news from northern Xinjiang. Besides, your body doesn't allow you to work so hard, so we'll do the rest. Feng Mingye said distressedly.
Murong Xi nodded, of course she knew what she needed to worry about the most now, and when Feng Mingye came back, she would start planning to detoxify her.
The baby in the belly is very strong, and since the accident, there has been no trouble. Thinking of the baby, Murong Xi's expression softened.
Xuan Liangyue asked curiously, "Did Elder Zheng really hide the contents of the wooden box in the walls of the dungeon?" ”
Xuan Liangyue thinks that this Zheng Elder is really cunning, and ordinary people will think that the most important thing will definitely be placed on their own body. However, Elder Zheng was different from ordinary people, he knew that once he was caught, what he put on his body would definitely be taken away. So, putting things on your body is the most unsafe place.
This is exactly the wisdom of Elder Zheng, although he has practiced witchcraft and alchemy, he still thinks that there are many people in this world who are stronger than himself. Therefore, after he lived in the underground palace, he tried his best to hide things in the walls of the underground palace. It's just that he has done so much, how did he hide it from the old man in Northern Xinjiang?
"If nothing else, it should be hidden inside the wall." Murong Xi responded.
"Xi'er, have you ever wondered how he managed to evade those guards if he really hid things in the walls?" Xuan Liangyue said the doubts in her heart.
Murong Xi nodded and said, "You're right, at the beginning, I couldn't figure it out. But what do you think he's best at? ”
Xuan Liangyue passed by Murong Xi and immediately thought of the reason, so he said to Murong Xi: "Gu worm, he used Gu worm to hide these things in the walls of the underground palace, right?" ”
"Yes, exactly. If he had hidden the wooden box in the wall, he must have used this method. He wouldn't tell the old man in Northern Xinjiang, because no one would believe him. Murong Xi said.
"When will Ji Limo come back?" Feng Mingye asked.
"If there is no accident, I will come back with Elder Qu tonight. If it doesn't go well...... I refer to the Xuan Elder of the Fengtian Sect, I don't know if he will listen to Ji Limo's words and hand over the wooden box. "Murong Xi always felt that Ji Limo's trip would not be too smooth. After all, if Elder Xuan wanted to talk about this, he would have told Ji Limo a long time ago, so why wait until now?
"How can there be any accidents?" Feng Mingye asked.
Murong Xi thought for a while and said, "I'm just worried that there will be problems with Elder Xuan, after all, he has guarded the wooden box for many years, why has he never said it to Ji Limo?" ”
"Well, Xi'er is right, maybe it is because of the Xuan family that the news of the wooden box has not been revealed for half a minute." Feng Mingye said.
……
Within the Fengtian Sect
"Elder Qu, is Elder Xuan back?" After Feng Tianjiao returned from Xuanmen Mountain Villa, he went directly to the forbidden land.
"Back to Wu Zun, Elder Xuan has been back for two days. I wonder what you're looking for him? Elder Qu asked.
"Well, there's something I want to ask him. By the way, Elder Qu, it just so happens that I have something to ask you. Ji Limo said coldly.
"What does Wu Zun want to know?" Elder Qu asked.
"You don't know about the matter of the Medicine King Valley, right?" Ji Limo asked.
Elder Qu nodded, admitting that they knew about the Medicine King Valley. Bookbag netting
In this case, the deity gets straight to the point. We and the Medicine King Valley are both from the tribe, and the elders who follow the descendants of the Yun Clan are also from the tribe. Among the elders, especially Elder Qu and Elder Xuan, they were the most trusted elders of the ancestors. So, I'd like to ask you if you know anything about the wooden box, or ...... The secret of the sheepskin map? Ji Limo said tentatively.
Elder Qu looked at Ji Limo seriously, smiled slightly, and said to Ji Limo: "It seems that Wu Zun must have known something in Xuanmen Villa, otherwise he wouldn't have asked like this." ”
"So, you know?" Ji Limo asked.
"Well, but that's what I heard the old man talk about when I was a kid." Elder Qu said.
"What did you hear?" Ji Limo asked.
"I only heard the old people mention that there was once a complete parchment map, and after that, the map was divided into several parts and placed in the hands of Wu Zun and one of the elders. You were in a hurry to find Elder Xuan just now, presumably, this map is in Elder Xuan's hands, right? Elder Qu finally asked rhetorically.
Of course, Ji Limo would not answer Elder Qu's words, but said to Elder Qu: "Which old man did you hear these things mentioned?" ”
Actually, it was my father and grandfather who brought it up. When he found out that I was eavesdropping, he told me not to tell anyone what I had heard. Elder Qu said.
"Elder Qu, actually, the wooden box is in your hand, right?" Ji Limo asked.
"Lord Wuzun, as the elder of the Fengtian Sect, the Qu family is naturally loyal. The Qu family has guarded the wooden box for generations, and the ancestors have also instructed that the wooden box cannot be taken out without a token. Even if Wu Zun ordered to take away the wooden box, he couldn't take it. Elder Qu said respectfully.
Wu Zun frowned slightly and asked, "Tokens?" ”
"That's right, it's a token." Elder Qu said.
"What kind of token is it, isn't my token useful?" Wu Zun took his token from his waist and said.
Elder Qu didn't answer Ji Limo this time, but silently turned around and left the gate of the forbidden land, and about a quarter of an hour later, took out a notebook from inside.
Elder Qu opened the notebook and put it in front of Ji Limo's eyes. Ji Limo looked down and saw a wolf tooth. This...... Isn't this the thing that Shigong passed on to Murong Xi? Could it be that this is the token to retrieve the wooden box?
"Lord Wuzun, have you seen this token?" Elder Qu saw that Ji Limo was fascinated, so he asked casually.
Ji Limo nodded, and then said, "Well, I did see this wolf tooth, but is this really a token?" ”
"Yes, the ancestor once specifically instructed that only the person who has this token can take the wooden box, and no one else can do it." Elder Qu said.
"I see." Ji Limo nodded, it seems that he needs to come back with Murong Xi next time.
"I'll go find Elder Xuan first, and then I'll trouble you." After Ji Limo finished speaking, he walked into the forbidden land, leaving Elder Qu with a surprised face.
Ji Limo entered the Xuanmen Hall and saw that Elder Xuan was meditating. Standing in the main hall without speaking, Elder Xuan sensed that someone was coming in and slowly opened his eyes.
"Lord Wuzun? How did you get here? Elder Xuan was a little surprised, he hadn't seen Wu Zun in many years.
In particular, he remembered that when he saw Wu Zun, he was still wearing a cloak and buttoning the hat on the cloak. Now it seems that Wu Zun's condition should be fine.
"Well, I heard you're back, so I'll come and have a look. It's been a long time since we've seen each other, right? Ji Limo asked with a smile.
Elder Xuan had never seen Ji Limo have a smile on his face. All the while, I was surprised and didn't know how to respond.
Ji Limo raised his eyebrows and asked, "Elder Xuan?" ”
"Huh? Subordinates damn it. The subordinates just didn't adapt for a while, yes, the subordinates and Wu Zun haven't seen each other for a long time. Elder Xuan said in a low voice.
"If I want to ask you something, you answer truthfully. Have you ever heard our ancestors talk about wooden boxes or sheepskin maps? Ji Limo didn't waste time, and said straight to the point.
Of course, Elder Xuan was also very surprised, he didn't expect that Ji Limo didn't have any extra words, but seemed to directly mention the wooden box and the sheepskin map.
Elder Xuan knew that Wu Zun had learned the news of the wooden box, so naturally he had nothing to hide, and said to Ji Limo: "Yes, the Xuan family has always guarded the wooden box. ”
"Okay, the wooden box in your hand can be handed over to me directly, or do you need any tokens?" Ji Limo asked.
"Tokens? I didn't mention it, but the ancestors had an order, if Lord Wuzun didn't take the initiative to need a wooden box, the Xuan family must always guard it. If one day, Wu Zun offered to take the wooden box, the Xuan family had to hand over the wooden box. Elder Xuan said respectfully.
"I understand, then give me the wooden box immediately." Ji Limo said.
"Yes, please wait a moment." After Elder Xuan finished speaking, he turned around and went to the back of the hall.
After a while, Elder Xuan took out a boxy black box. This box is very exquisite, and the box is the black snake that I didn't see in Xuanmen Villa. Ji Limo touched the black box, nodded, and said to Elder Xuan: "You are also from the Xuan family, have you ever been to Xuanmen Villa?" ”
