Chapter 12: The Nine Black Bone Boxes

Master folded his arms and thought for a while before responding, "At noon the day after tomorrow, you will bring twenty or thirty men with full yang energy to my house. ”

Qiao Sanye was stunned for a moment, and after a while, his eyes suddenly stared like light bulbs: "So, that thing is really in your hands?" ”

The master didn't say much, just nodded silently.

Qiao Sanye then asked: "Could it be that the rumors are true, Xiaolongtan broke up for that thing?" ”

The master immediately waved his hand and said, "Don't inquire about this, at noon the day after tomorrow, can you get all the people?" ”

"It should be fine."

After Qiao Sanye's words, the master was about to get up, but Qiao Sanye pressed the master's left shoulder and almost forcibly pressed the master back to the chair.

"Are you okay?" Master asked him with a slight frown. 、

Qiao Sanye grinned: "I have a job at hand, I don't know if you are interested." ”

"I don't do the work that makes money."

"Look at what you said, in our industry, there is no job that doesn't make money."

"Then I don't dare to take it, didn't I say it just now, my apprentice can't be rich"

"Don't be in a hurry to refuse, so be it, you take the small head, and I will donate the big head when I go back, even if it is to help you and your apprentice save some merit."

"That couldn't be better. What kind of work? ”

"Just some time ago, a native surnamed Lu came to me to sell stolen goods, you know, I haven't been involved in this kind of business since the forties, and I don't know how he found me, but this person seems to have a lot of background, and he should have two brushes in his hands."

"Surname Lu? It can't be Jing Chu's thief, right? ”

"That's not exactly. At that time, this person took a few things to show me, I looked, there is a dark red gilt hand furnace, it should not be an ordinary artifact, that family, if you can't get it is the ancients used to refine the corpse pill, the evil spirit on it is extremely heavy, the surname Lu does have some means, but there is no cultivation, always bring such a thing on the body, if you don't get it right, it will invite disaster. ”

"You want to ...... Let me steal that handstove back? If he is really the one who steals the door from Jing Chu, I'm afraid this matter will not be easy to handle. ”

"What do you think, if it's such a cheap thing, I can't find you. I think that although the surname Lu is innocent, he still has a good wife and young children in his family, no matter what he has done, the women and children in the family are always innocent. Why don't you take trouble and prevent disasters for this mother and son? ”

Doubts gradually appeared on Master's face: "Where did you get this job?" ”

Qiao Sanye smiled at my master: "I didn't pick it up from anywhere, it's just that I personally want to help this mother and son." ”、

The master also smiled, and smiled a little helplessly: "I know that you want to help me, and I understand the kindness, but I really can't ask for your money." ”

"Why can't you ask for it?" Qiao Sanye made a very anxious look: "You have done your work well, I will give you money, if you can't do it well, I still have to ask you for money." ”

Speaking of this, Third Master Qiao first paused, and then came to my master, revealing a sincere expression: "Lao Du, you just believe me, this is really a matter of accumulating merit, and this merit can really fall on your apprentice's head." ”

Master couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "What did you say?" ”

Unexpectedly, Qiao Sanye sold Guanzi: "If I continue to talk about it, it will leak the secret of heaven." ”、

My master seems to have long been accustomed to seeing Qiao Sanye's sale, so he didn't show any surprised expression, but just asked Qiao Sanye: "Where does the surname Lu live?" ”

Third Master Qiao smiled: "At noon the day after tomorrow, after we finish counting your belongings, I will personally send you over." It just so happens that I still have some contacts over there, so it should be no problem to get a school registration for your apprentice, isn't he six years old, and he should also go to a preschool class to lay the foundation for next year's primary school. ”

The master did not refuse Qiao Sanye's kindness, and nodded on the spot and agreed: "Then it will trouble you." ”

After that, Master got up to leave, this time Qiao Sanye didn't stop again, he also stood up and led Master and me all the way out of the narrow door.

When he went out, Qiao Sanye said that he would arrive at Feng Ho before noon the day after tomorrow, and asked the master not to go out of his way to pick him up.

As if he hadn't heard him, Master turned around and left, and soon led me out of Kidnapping Alley.

When I returned to the crowded road, I opened my mouth and asked Master, "Master, Third Master Qiao was talking to you just now, why didn't you ignore him?" ”

Master patiently explained to me, "When you enter the Kidnapping Alley, as long as you don't do business and don't plan to enter the shop, don't speak. ”

I nodded in understanding.

That night, Master took me to catch the last train to Feng Ho, and we trekked all the way until the next morning, when we returned to Feng Ho City.

When I got home, Master rummaged through the things in the kitchen and made me a pimple soup, and then he started going back and forth between the rooms, at first he was just carrying things, but then even his outfit changed.

I don't know when the warm sheepskin jacket was replaced by an ordinary gray cotton jacket, the leather shoes on the feet were replaced by thick cloth shoes, and the watch and bead strings on the wrists were also taken off. The only thing that remained unchanged was the pair of sunglasses on the bridge of Master's nose, which was like a sign of his, and even today, he still wears those sunglasses.

Although the lenses have been changed countless times and the frames have been repaired again and again, in my eyes, after all these years, the sunglasses have never changed as before.

It was another night of reincarnation of the sun and the moon, and when the sun was about to climb to the top of the firmament, someone knocked on the door, and at the same time, Qiao Sanye's voice also sounded outside the door: "Lao Du, I have found all the people for you, why don't you open the door quickly!" ”

My master jumped up from the couch with a carp in his head, and with the wind behind him, he ran towards the door.

From ten minutes ago, the master looked anxious, and as soon as the door opened, he yelled angrily: "Why did you come?" ”

I leaned on the window and looked at the courtyard, and saw that Qiao Sanye was grinning: "It's still five minutes before noon, and the time is just right." ”

The master didn't bother to talk nonsense with him, and while turning around and running towards the house, he shouted loudly: "Everyone come to the middle of the courtyard, and Qiao Laosan will follow me." ”

That is, before he finished speaking, the master rushed into the house, his speed was too fast, Qiao Sanye couldn't keep up at all, and only then ran to the middle of the courtyard.

As soon as my master entered the door, he immediately grabbed the hammer that had been standing by the door the night beforehand, and then rushed to the west wall with a few arrows, and without saying a word, smashed the round hammer into the wall.

"Khooth!" With a loud bang, the entire wall shook three times, and dust flew along the root and top of the wall, and the center of the wall was also smashed open by my master.

Only then did I realize that there was a big cavity in the mouth, and there were a lot of things in it.

The master quickly reached in and pulled out a thin box about the length of an iron ruler.

At that time, I was very close to Master, and I could clearly see the appearance of the object, and I saw that it was black and clear, and there were three distorted human faces engraved on the surface of the box facing me, but because Master quickly rushed out of the room with it, I didn't see other details on the box, but I felt that it was quite weighty, because Master was obviously struggling to hold it in his hand.

At the moment when my master rushed out of the house, Qiao Sanye probably saw the thing in his hand, and screamed on the spot: "This is the Nine Black Bone Box?" ”

Then I heard my master shout angrily: "What are you calling, for fear that others will not know that this thing is in my hands?" Don't be stunned, hurry up and help! ”
