Chapter 9 Taoguang Cultivates Obscurity

He patted Beigong Han on the shoulder and said:

"Beigong, where are you from? Is that the ring you told me about in your last letter? ”

"Haha...... Right! Thanks to this Fire Clan treasure, you can travel through space. He smiled and raised his index finger.

A trace of surprise flashed on Wei Chixuan's face:

"In this world, there is such a mysterious thing."

"yes, I didn't believe it at first." Beigong Han continued, "We came here this time to go to Tiger Roaring Xuan to find the person who cultivated black magic, but we can't be sure which Tiger Roaring Xuan he is hiding in, so we can only come to the headquarters to find it first." ”

"Is it the one who poisoned the 'smile'?" Yu Chixuan frowned.

"Not sure, but it's all in a group." Shen Wandao.

"I'm with you." Yu Chixuan thought of the pain his younger brother had suffered, a flash of fierceness flashed in his eyes, and he said coldly:

"Whether it is a poison caster or not, if you practice that vicious spell, you should be killed." The white light flashed, and the silver sword blade flashed with cold light.

……

After the three of them dressed up in disguise, they went straight to the headquarters of Tiger Roaring Xuan. When the guard saw them, he stopped them with his knife and shouted:

"Who's coming? Please present the token. ”

Beigong Han frowned: I thought that Hu Xiaoxuan entered casually, but I didn't expect that I still needed a Laoshizi token? If he hadn't understood the layout of Tiger Roar Xuan, and he was afraid of breaking into some mechanism, he would have used the empty ring to enter it a long time ago, what should he do now?

Yu Chixuan took a small piece of red sandalwood from his waist, and Shen Wan looked at it, and there was a tiger carved on it with a bloody mouth, which was the same as what he saw in the lobby of Tiger Roaring Xuan. When the guard saw this, he waved his hand and said:

"Let's go inside." This time I came to Qi Kingdom, I really came to the right place, it seems that Brother Wei Chi knows more about this place than them.

A faint aroma hit his nose, Yu Chixuan smelled it, frowned, handed Beigong Han and Shen Wan two pills, and then said:

"There are many gangs in the rivers and lakes in Tiger Roar Xuan, and some factions are proficient in the use of drugs, so it is difficult to guarantee that they will not do anything here. This is a hundred poison powder, effective within two hours, take it quickly. ”

"But isn't this a place to gather people to discuss matters and recruit disciples? Why do you want to destroy the enemy, so you are on guard everywhere? Shen Wan asked puzzled.

"While the factions appear to be in harmony on the surface, the conflict of interest behind the scenes is turbulent. Each gang hopes to recruit the most intelligent disciples, and here, for the first level of selection, the elimination of some newcomers are new to the rivers and lakes. ”

"Knock out? Isn't this pushing people into the fire? If someone is dead, what should he do? Shen Wan was surprised.

"Tiger Roaring Xuan is such a place. Everyone knows that their lives may be threatened, but there are still many fearless warriors who come forward to follow suit. Yu Chixuan said lightly:

"If you die unfortunately, it will only be considered as incompetent. After all, warnings come first. ”

Beigong Han sighed a few times and said with emotion: "The rivers and lakes are dangerous everywhere, they are really the weak and the strong, and the fittest survive." ”

"The Shenzhou Continent is not as good as the four clans, without the nourishment of spiritual power, it will be extremely difficult to cultivate black magic, what is he doing here?" Shen Wan frowned.

"The person who comes to Tiger Roaring Xuan will either gather to discuss matters or recruit disciples, he is unfamiliar with this place, he will not come to discuss matters, so ......" Beigong Han pondered for a while, as if he thought of something, and exclaimed:

"He's here to expand his power?"

"Impossible, a person from the Shenzhou Continent, he can't train here, does he want to bring back the four clans?" Shen Wan retorted.

"Can black spells achieve this?" Wei Chixuan asked.

"I don't know. The only secret art book has been torn apart, and its whereabouts are still unknown, and there are very few ancient books about black magic that have been obtained by the various clans. Shen Wan paused and said:

"If you can do it, it will cost a lot of money. To practice dark spells, spiritual power reserves are secondary, and the most important thing is ......"

"Human heads?!" Beigong Han continued, "Didn't you say that summoning demons requires human blood as a sacrifice?" Is it impossible to complete the teleportation, and it will need to kill people to pay for it? ”

"Very likely." Wei Chixuan pointed to the notice wall not far away and said, "Let's go over there and have a look." "On the cement walls, there are densely pasted strips of paper of different materials: ribbed paper, raw edge paper, rice paper, cotton paper...... Nearly a hundred messages, the three of them did not say a word, and immediately read them carefully.

After a stick of incense, Beigong Han frowned and asked:

"Did you find anything?"

"This mystical school is a bit weird." Shen Wan said slowly, "What do you mean by 'only recruiting killers, and those who kill more are preferred'?" This Tiger Roaring Xuan is also opened under the eyes of the imperial court yamen, so bright, and the courage is too big! If it weren't for the backing behind him, I can't think of any other reason why he didn't write it tactfully...... What do you say? ”

"Although I haven't heard of it, but recently the small sect has risen rapidly, there are all kinds of things, and it is not uncommon to recruit killers, the court and the rivers and lakes, if there is no major conflict, generally speaking, they can be regarded as non-interference with each other." Yu Chixuan said lightly.

"Look here!" Beigong Han picked up a piece of straw paper and beckoned to them,

"Yude faction: 'rob the rich and help the poor, and kill the bad guys'. How the name of this gang is the same as the temple, it is strange. ”

"This is a small sect that started a few months ago, and I've heard of it. It is said that they recruit all the people who have the idea of fighting grievances, regardless of the level of martial arts, so there are many people who go and have a good reputation. Wei Chixuan replied. He glanced at the words on a piece of rice paper that was pressed underneath:

Feng Jiao faction, recruit closed disciples, those who are interested please move to the second floor for assessment.

"Kaede faction? Didn't the No. 1 Poison Sect in the world stop accepting apprentices a long time ago? Why is it suddenly recruited again? Beigong Han followed his gaze and frowned.

"I don't know, I always feel that things are not that simple." Yu Chixuan groaned.

"Then let's find out." Shen Wan snapped her fingers and said as she walked: "We have to hurry up, we can't delay any longer." ”

"Let's go." Beigong Han followed.

……

Yuguo, Shang Fu.

At the foot of the back hill near the lake, among the turquoise rattans, a moss-covered stone gate is decorated with extraordinary concealment. Shang Jin pressed among the rocks and grass, only to hear a muffled sound of "boom", and the stone door slowly moved open. He turned his head and greeted Mu Ningjiu:

"I'll show you what I've been doing all these years."

The huge night pearls illuminate the road ahead. The dew dripped on the stone floor, making a reverberation. Although the footsteps of the two were soft, they were infinitely amplified in this incomparably wide basement. Mu Ningjiu saw the neatly arranged wooden boxes, hooked his lips, and laughed:

"It's not all gold, is it?"

"If I had been so careless and had put my gold here, I am afraid I would not have survived today." He bent the corner of his eye,

"Little fox, you know it, and you still want to ask me." She walked over and tapped on the lid of the box, and unexpectedly there was an ethereal sound.

"Then it's too wasteful here, all the boxes are empty." Mu Ningjiu regretted that their Zuihualou was located in the center of the Acropolis, covering an area less than half the size of the mountain behind him, and every time a new killer was recruited, he had to train outside the Acropolis, and he would have to delay a lot of time when he came and went. And there are many people, and it is easy to provoke right and wrong.

Shang Jin blinked his eyes, waved his hand and motioned for Mu Ningjiu to stand on the high platform not far away, then reached out and moved one of the thousands of wooden boxes, lifted the light gong and left quickly, standing side by side with her.

With a "click", the stone walls on both sides suddenly moved, and soon they formed an empty flat ground, and the shadow of a wooden box could not be seen. Mu Ningjiu raised his eyebrows in surprise: Looking at the degree of continuity and silence of this mechanism, it is impossible for a mechanic who is not a more accomplished machine master to achieve it. Moreover, there is a wooden box under the stone wall, that is, the load-bearing capacity of the stone wall should be taken into account; In this way, it must cost a lot of money.

"No wonder you worked so hard to negotiate business and help Zuo Sheng handle the case." Mu Ningjiu sighed with emotion and sighed,

"Ah Jin, I still underestimate you. When you said you were talking about yourself like a straw bale in the carriage, I really believed it. Now that I think about it, the naΓ―ve person is me, and you have been countered by you. ”

When Shang Jin heard this, the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were dyed with a smile: "There were so many competitions when I first met, when did I not lose to you?" Kazuo ...... Little fox, I'm still far behind. ”

"So you worship me so much." Mu Ningjiu pursed his lips, raised the corners of his eyes and smiled:

"Still, you have some places like mine."

Shang Jin didn't expect Mu Ningjiu to give in, so he unexpectedly raised his eyebrows and asked:

"Oh? What is it? I don't even know about it. ”

Mu Ningjiu patted his delicate face:

"What a face. When I first saw you, this face was the most eye-catching. ”

"It is a great honor for Xiaosheng to be favored by the princess." Shang Jin smiled when she heard this, and her slender knuckles gently wrapped around her soft: "Take you to see my little vault." ”

They turned, and with a flick of the flick, the original stone wall behind them transformed into a huge chess array. The black and white chess pieces on it are all made of crystal, which shimmer in the light of the night pearl. Shang Jin moved the othello quickly, and the mechanism connected by the chess pieces began to roll slowly like gears, and finally there was a "click", which was completely compatible.

The door sliced open from the center and closed quickly as they entered. This space is no brighter and more spacious than before, with all kinds of miscellaneous things piled up, like a real grocery room. Seeing this, Mu Ningjiu raised his eyebrows: It's really a ring, looking at this dazzling garbage dump environment, no matter how you think that money is hidden here, right?

"Is there no lighting?" Mu Ningjiu asked.

"No, I don't." Shang Jin opened a wooden box, and the Night Pearl, which was five or six times larger than a goose egg, instantly lit up the entire room.

"Click" A few soft sounds, the bright light was like an endless stream, gushing outward, Mu Ningjiu looked at the boxes of gold and silver, and raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"Why are you making so much money in secret?"
