Chapter 29: The Money Cow

"Senior brother is wise!"

The ghost baby gave a grateful thumbs up and asked secretly, "Senior brother, there are so many treasures here, we ...... Can we ...... Take some away? I, I, I said to take some away, but not for myself, I thought, after I go out, I will change the money to buy a few new clothes for the master, and I will buy a lot of delicious filial piety to the master, you can see that the clothes that the master is wearing are torn, and besides, generally good people will suffer a lot, and the master must have eaten a lot, I want to ......"

"No way!"

Before the ghost baby finished talking, I immediately stopped it severely, but immediately smiled and said, "Although I can't bring a lot, it's not bad to secretly take a valuable one, quack~~~"

Shangguan Jin also smiled happily and said: "The seventh day of the first month is really the same as what the hero sees, but your master is too old-fashioned, and no one seems to be able to change what he said, and he never talks about human affairs, if he knows that we have taken something behind our backs...... I'm worried that he will complain to my master, and then my master will definitely beat me up again......"

"Uh......" I smacked my lips and said, "Look at what you said, how can my master be that kind of person, besides, the two sects of Mi Xian are not in harmony, my master and your master are usually idle and don't care about each other, I shouldn't report it to your master because you took the treasure here, besides, our senior brothers and sisters are still counting on you to help us bring some things, if my master sees that we have taken something, then it is a ready-made place to be beaten!" ”

"Yes!" Shangguan Jinyi waved his hand and said, "You can say anything, but don't expect me to help you two carry things, unless you two are looking forward to me being beaten to death......"

I had time to talk with Shangguan Jin, but I saw that the ghost baby had already stuffed her whole body with all kinds of rare treasures, and she inadvertently shook her body, and one by one the golden bumps fell down, I looked at it and shook my head, and said, "Why did you kid become stupid again for so long?" Master's eyes are tight, just you, without the master looking, I can see that you have a bunch of things hidden on your body, take them out! ”

"Oh!"

The ghost baby immediately drooped her face, and took out the same things that had been hidden, and finally left three or four strange gadgets, which she couldn't put down anymore, and her hands clenched tightly, saying that she wouldn't let go of anything.

I sighed helplessly and said, "Just take those few things, don't think about more!" ”

"Hey!" The ghost baby's little face suddenly smiled, nodded heavily, and hurriedly hid the gadgets tightly, and after I repeatedly confirmed that I couldn't see the flaw, the ghost baby was full of joy and put her heart down.

I walked all the way, but I didn't find the scriptures and classics on it, only countless gold and silver treasures, and all kinds of people made of gold and jade, chariots and horses, exquisite treasures, etc., in short, everything imaginable in the world is like rags here, littered everywhere.

Shangguan Jin picked left and right, and finally took a fancy to a beautiful short sword made of purple gold, and an ancient ring carved with dragon patterns, and the ring was obviously inlaid with a bean-sized emerald.

I picked up a jade pen of more than four or five inches, the carving is exquisite, and then there is easy to hide, I don't see much other treasures, only this jade pen can make me think a little, let me remember...... A girl who once taught me how to write......

Suddenly! The three of us paused in unison, our eyes staring straight at a small tree not far away, to be precise, it was not an ordinary tree, but a ...... Cash cow!

The height is more than a foot high, and the fluffy branches and leaves are all bright gold...... There are also gold and silver ingots hanging on it, I can't believe that there is really a cash cow in this world...... Watching blankly, his feet involuntarily approached forward - "Money cow? This, what a cash cow?! ”

Shangguan Jin was shocked and touched the small golden tree in front of him, but soon, he was stopped by a strange stone sculpture crouching under the cash tree.

The stone sculpture looks like some kind of beast, but what makes people wonder is why it was carved like that, lazily crouching under the cash tree, as if guarding the tree, after looking at it for a while, I suddenly had a hot brain, as if I thought of an ancient beast described in a certain book, well, it is the ancient beast, Pixiu!

"It turns out that the guardian of the fifth layer is Pixiu, no wonder...... Pixiu is a fierce beast that guards treasures, but it can also devour everything in the world, so don't come closer, or you will disturb its spirit, and we will be in big trouble! ”

Master appeared beside us at some point, and as he spoke, he was carefully examining the Pixiu stone carving.

According to the book, Pixiu is the ancient fierce Rui beast, one of the five major Rui beasts, in addition to the dragon, phoenix, turtle, unicorn, Pixiu is called the fortune beast, once the totem of the two clans in ancient times, the legend helped the Yan and Huang Emperors to fight meritorious, was given the title of "Tianlu Beast" that is, the meaning of heaven blessing Lu. It is designed for the emperor to protect the treasure, but also the symbol of the royal family, called the "imperial treasure", and because Pixiu specializes in eating fierce beasts and evil spirits, so it is also called "warding off evil spirits" The ancient feng shui master believed that Pixiu was the beast of Jirui who turned disaster into auspiciousness.

But there is another legend that Pixiu devours all things, which is a metaphor for murder.

"Spirits?"

I frowned and said, "Master, could it be that there is a Pixiu spirit hidden in the stone carving?" ”

Master slowly looked back at me, glanced at the ghost baby and Shangguan Jin, and said in a deep voice, "What do you think?!" Don't think that you can hide everything, before you find the passage to the sixth layer, you still obediently take out all the things you have hidden and put them back in their place, otherwise...... Hum! ”

"Master is right! There must be a Pixiu spirit in the stone carving, otherwise how can you protect the treasure of the fifth layer? ”

The ghost baby suddenly smiled and admired, and almost clapped her palms excitedly.

Shangguan Jin also hurriedly echoed: "Uncle Yang's eyes are like a torch, and my nephew also thinks that this stone carving is not simple, let's not come forward and disturb it, hehe!" Hehehe! ”

Laughed dryly, and seeing that everyone didn't laugh along, Shangguan Jin restrained his smile in embarrassment......

I also want to pat Master's ass, but I know that no one can slap Master's ass, because Master doesn't eat that at all, but...... I thought I was wrong, the master suddenly smiled and said, "You two don't need to flatter me, what should I do, I won't say it a second time, but it's the seventh day of the first month!" As the senior brother of the ghost baby, not only does he lead by example, but he also connives, and the ghost baby takes the things here, and will clean you up after he goes out! ”

"Huh? I ......"

I panicked when I heard this, Master, what kind of stinky temper is this? Why did you put all the blame on me all of a sudden, is it because I didn't slap Master's ass like the two flattering guys? Is this big face still my master? Why did you turn your elbow outward, treat me so harshly as a beginner disciple, but be so indulgent to the ghost baby, and say that I ......

As we were talking, we all noticed that on the other side of the Pixiu stone carving, there were three golden lambs, carrying a huge key side by side on their backs, and the heads of the three sheep were facing the direction, which was the golden mountain in front. But we've searched all over here, and there's no lock or anything like that, or...... The key was just an antique or something, no different from the gold and silver treasures here. ”

After thinking about it, the master denied the previous words and said, "Pixiu stone carving, cash cow, three sheep...... Well, I see! ”

"Click! Click! Click! ”

As soon as Master's words landed, I saw that the Pixiu stone carving under the cash cow suddenly cracked, and the cracks became bigger and bigger, accompanied by a fierce aura, and burst into the face - "Roar!! ”

A thunderous roar sounded rolling out from the stone carving, and when the master saw this, his face suddenly changed greatly, and he hurriedly turned around and shouted: "It must be the treasure you have hidden that alarmed it, Pixiu is a fierce beast that guards this treasure, if you use any treasure here without permission, it will inevitably provoke the sleeping Pixiu spirit, although it is not Pixiu's real body, but it is enough for us to bear it!" ”

"That's that...... So what do we do?! I trembled all over and asked urgently, the jade pen slipped down from the sleeve, and the ghost baby on the side, hearing this, immediately took out the golden bump on his body and threw it away......

Shangguan Jin was also very helpless, but he still quickly put the dagger and the ancient ring on the ground carefully, Rao is so, the sound of Pixiu's roar in the stone carving is still endless, and even, the spirit of Pixiu is already trying to break free from the shackles of the stone carving!

"How so?"

Master's face became even more ugly, and he immediately blocked us behind him when he lifted the evil sword, and turned back and said, "Did you return all the things?!" This is not a trivial matter, don't lose a big one because of a small one! ”

I deeply knew what I was taking, except for the jade pen, there was really nothing else, and hurriedly turned my head to look at the ghost baby, the ghost baby shook his head innocently, and pretended to be pitiful, signaling to us, he didn't even have a golden retriever left on his body, at the same time, I and the ghost baby looked at Shangguan Jin, Shangguan Jin's face turned pale, his face trembled, and said, "I, I...... Am I not okay with this? ”

As he spoke, Shangguan Jinmo chirped and took out an extremely delicate jade Ruyi from his arms, now I and the ghost baby were dumbfounded, just now we were obviously walking together, when did this guy hide something that he didn't even see me and the ghost baby, what a thief......

"Anything else?!"

Master's face turned angry, and he looked at Shangguan Jin coldly.

Shangguan Jin's face turned red, and he lowered his head and said, "No, there is no ......"

"Bang!!"

Suddenly! The stone carving exploded in response, and a small phantom jumped out of it, although it was just a spirit, but the whole body could still be seen clearly, it was the ancient fierce beast Pixiu recorded in the book, the phantom was shaking, and the body slightly exuded a seven-colored glow, dazzling!

In our stunned eyes, Pixiu swallowed the surrounding gold, silver and gems into his stomach, and then his figure flashed and appeared in front of us in the blink of an eye, staring at the four of us with a fierce look!
