Chapter 12: Night into the Water Pavilion

In the evening, looking at the sparsely populated and slightly dilapidated Shenhezhuang on the island in the middle of the lake in the distance, Zhao Kong couldn't help but feel the changes in the world and the impermanence of prosperity and decline.

Although Nan Murong was suppressed by North Qiao Feng back then, the Murong family was also the top force in the south.

A family that can always maintain the idea of recovering the country, regardless of wealth or connections, must not be far behind.

And the manor in front of you, even if you can still see the magnificent pattern of the past, but if you don't count those dilapidated buildings, there are only a dozen houses on the shore that are still populated.

However, this can be regarded as reducing Zhao Kong's troubles, if the descendants of the Murong family want to repay the other in their own way, they must refer to the hundred martial arts, and it must be impossible to put these cheats too far.

And on this island in the middle of the lake, there are only so many populated buildings, it must be much easier to find.

As for those masters in the village, Zhao Kong really didn't care much.

Although he is in the low-martial world, the means he has mastered are far beyond the scope of low-martial arts.

Even if most of the methods are not beneficial to actual combat, it is convenient to use them in the right place and has a miraculous effect.

In fact, there was no need to be so troublesome, since Murong Fu went crazy, the Gusu Murong clan has been hidden from the world.

It's also on an island in the middle of the lake, except for the occasional boatman and bandits, there is no need to deliberately guard against anyone.

It's just that a few spies in the gang were arrested before, which aroused the precautions of the people on the island.

In addition, these martial arts families, one by one, attach importance to their own martial arts, and care more about their own martial arts than their lives, and would rather lose it than give it to outsiders.

In the case of precautions, even if Zhao Kong leads people to forcibly capture Shenhezhuang, it is likely that chickens and eggs will be beaten.

Therefore, Zhao Kong hid on a small island not far from Swallow Dock, and waited cautiously for more than half an hour, until the night was getting deeper and most of the lights on the island were extinguished, and then he dived into Shenhezhuang at night.

"Hidden shadows, hidden ......"

Zhao Kong, who swam ashore, cleaned up a little, and began to seal his hands and silently recite the incognito spell.

During this time when Zhao Kong was at the headquarters, in addition to cultivating the Tai Chi Xuanqing Dao, he also selected some simple and practical Qi refining period techniques collected in the Shenzhou Realm, and roughly practiced them.

After a few seconds, the figure became faint and blurry, and when he reached the shadow where the moonlight could not shine, he completely disappeared and disappeared.

This stealth technique is a few basic techniques in the Divine Realm Immortal Cultivation and Qi Refining Period, which is a typical technique that is easy to learn and difficult to master, as long as the spiritual power is qualified, anyone can easily perform it.

Most of the Qi Refining Stage cultivators were similar to Zhao Kong after casting them, and they couldn't even completely hide their figures, so they would be easily discovered by other cultivators.

Even a few geniuses of this path are of great use until they have cultivated to a certain point.

Because all the large and small cities in the Shenzhou Boundary have giant guardian formations, the stealth technique in the city is completely ineffective.

As for the wilderness, monks with a little experience will open the probing formation at any time, and the stealth technique still has little effect.

What's even more troublesome is that during the stealth technique, you can't perform other spells and light skills.

Even movement speed is affected to varying degrees, making this potential spell a must-have.

However, there is obviously no need to worry about these in the Condor World, people in this world have no sense of prevention at all about stealth techniques, even if Zhao Kong's two-knife level stealth technique can also be of great use.

Zhao Kong, who was already invisible, didn't need to be too careful, walking silently in the shadows everywhere, easily avoiding four or five men patrolling the night, and exploring the houses everywhere.

The houses near the shore are mostly dwellings, and it obviously doesn't look like a place to store cheats.

Zhao Kong touched the back of the manor all the way and found a small lake with an area of three or four acres.

In the middle of the lake was built an exquisite two-story wooden building, as the name suggests, and there is also a water pavilion, so this should be it.

Zhao Kongxian took a closer look without hurry, and confirmed that although there were people guarding the Water Pavilion, there was no one patrolling outside.

Seeing this, Zhao Kong got out of the state of stealth, exerted a clear and peaceful wind, and in a blink of an eye, he swept across the lake more than ten zhang away, and quietly came to the back of the attic.

Zhao Kong's increasingly powerful spiritual power, although he could not drive external objects yet, he could already easily sense that in the attic, there was a first-class peak master who was close to innate.

Judging from the background of the Murong family, even if this person is not as good as Qiu Qianren, who has already entered the congenital situation, he is also much stronger than Qiu Chuji and Mei Chaofeng, these two first-class vanguards.

"Even if the Murong family has been in seclusion for many years and is slightly decayed, the background is still not comparable to the Giant Whale Gang, and wherever such a master is placed, he can support a situation."

Against a first-class peak martial artist, Zhao Kong could not quickly subdue him, and after a long fight, he would definitely attract more people.

When the time comes, the Murong family, who guessed Zhao Kong's eyes, God knows if the jade will be burned, and burn these cheats to dispel his covetousness.

After all, it is normal for these cheats to have backups, and it is a tradition of the Murong family to have hidden clansmen outside.

Therefore, he can only hit with one blow, and only then can he have the possibility of returning the secret book of Shi Shui Pavilion.

With such a master guarding the first floor, Zhao Kong naturally would not enter directly through the gate.

With all his strength to restrain his breath, he silently flew to the corridor on the second floor, easily opened the window and sneaked into the building.

The subtle sound was muffled by the whirring wind outside the building, and did not attract the attention of the night watchman downstairs.

There are six bookshelves on the second floor of the attic, on which there are many books scattered around.

Zhao Kong simply flipped through it, and it was basically some second- and third-rate cheats such as "Five Tiger Broken Door Knife", "Crazy Wand Method", "Hengshan Sword Method", etc., and the good things were obviously not in the second layer.

After a little hesitation, Zhao Kong gave up his plan to put it away.

He doesn't have a storage bag now, a must-have artifact for home travel, and with so many cheats, how can he deal with the master downstairs.

If he took these cheats and left directly, Zhao Kong would definitely not be reconciled.

Not to mention the two stunts of "Dou Zhuan Xing Shifting" and "Shen He Finger", the Murong family must still have a lot of first-class martial arts cheats.

If you let it go today, it will only be more difficult to start in the future.

Facing the master downstairs, Zhao Kong's stealth technique is better than not using it, this kind of almost quasi-innate powerhouse, the five senses are definitely far better than ordinary people.

It's easy to have other voices to cover up from a distance, once you enter the range of the first floor, if you can't use light power, no matter how careful you are, the footsteps can't hide from the other party.

So Zhao Kong thought about it for a moment and took out some materials from his inner pocket.

Most of these items are native to the Condor World and have been handled by Zhao Kong in a special way.

The few strange materials he bought from the Ten Thousand Worlds Mall.

Although the price is not high, Zhao Kong, whose points have shrunk to three digits, has to be used cautiously.

"I hope this wave won't be lost, otherwise I will have to kill the grandsons of the Murong family."

Zhao Kong, who was secretly ruthless, quickly selected the materials and got busy at the staircase on the second floor.

Under the catalysis of his mana, the various materials silently fused together, and after a while, they condensed into a small black spherical object.

When the little black ball was completely stabilized, Zhao Kong held up the object with his left palm, pinched the spell in his right hand and silently recited the spell in his mouth, and began to cast the spell with the black ball as a medium.

After half a sound, the black ball began to emit bursts of smoke, which smelled tasteless and slightly black in color, and was difficult to detect in a dim environment.

With the urging of Zhao Kong's magic technique, the black ball became smaller and smaller, and the smoke generated rolled down the stairs to the first floor, gradually spreading throughout the attic.

Although it is quite a waste to use such a secret method against a person.

But the Murong family's hundreds of years of collection, plus some of the cheats of the Loose Sect that may have been brought by Wang Yuyan, are already worth Zhao Kong's gamble.
