Chapter 11: The Undersea Lair
In the warehouse of Gong Changfeng's house, Qi Wanli marked the name and purpose of the materials on the last box, and carefully put them back on the shelves.
It didn't actually take him a night to identify all the unknown materials in the warehouse.
But it's really doubtful that the work gets done so quickly.
Qi Wanli deliberately got a copy of "Monster Illustrated Book", turned it into tatters, and left several materials with particularly complex formation factors when marking materials, deliberately did not make any markings, or deliberately omitted some uses and precautions on the labeling of some materials.
In this way, the old black he plays is almost an appraiser whose level is much higher than that of most of his peers, but there are also certain blind spots in knowledge.
Of course, after doing all this work, Qi Wanli would not immediately hand over the errand, and he began to set his sights on the other materials in the warehouse.
"Now that I'm here, I have to touch the bottom of Gong Changfeng. ”
He began to inspect the materials in the palace chief's inventory one by one.
Of course, Qi Wanli did this for a reason, his current purpose is to find the suspected monster, and at present, Gong Changfeng should be the one who knows the most about the suspected monster, and he thinks that in the process of the previous battle between the sailor and the suspected monster, Gong Changfeng should also take action.
After all, Wu Kui said that in the process of investigating the demon beast before, Gong Changfeng was the leader, so in the process of exploring its activities and fighting it, it is unlikely that Gong Changfeng will be absent.
"Although the demon beast slaughtered the sea monkey and the ghost-eyed fish, the fishermen also witnessed it being injured, which means that its strength has definitely not reached the seventh order like its rain dragon body, and it may even hang the sixth order, but Gong Changfeng is a real sixth-order ocean poet, in the sea, he has no reason to let the demon beast escape, and even injured so many soldiers. ”
"Even if it was really his carelessness the first time, when the demon beast came to retaliate and make trouble a few days later, Gong Changfeng couldn't do anything about it? ”
Extrapolating in this way, two conclusions will emerge. First, Gong Changfeng and this demon beast are in a group, and they put on a play together for some unknown purpose; second, Gong Changfeng himself has some unknown purpose, and he deliberately spared the demon beast because he had other plans. ”
"Whatever the case is, at least it can show that Gong Changfeng is not really investigating the demon beast incident, and he must have something to hide. In this way, it is necessary to see if there are any secrets hidden in his private warehouse...... Well, I'm afraid that Wu Kui also has such suspicions, so he will ask me to investigate. ”
Of course, Qi Wanli is not sure whether he can find clues in the warehouse, but this is nothing, when he was a criminal police officer in the past, it was normal to run a bunch of places in vain to find clues.
He quickly inspected the things in the warehouse, but most of these things were monster materials, although there were many valuable materials, but there were no clues that could help substantially, but it made Qi Wanli once again sigh that the family background of the lower palace Changfeng was rich.
"It seems that there are no clues here, get some sleep, make a business tomorrow, and see what arrangements Gong Changfeng has for me." ”
Qi Wanli stretched, and at the same time, a small white hairball came out of his collar and silently fell to the ground and into the corner of the warehouse.
Although the Black King can't transform anymore, his doppelganger ability is still there.
"Come on, little clone of the Black King. ”
Qi Wanli said with a smile and pushed open the door of the warehouse.
The next day, he soaked in the warehouse for another morning, but he didn't do anything, but learned about some things that happened in Xiaoyao Academy through the clone of the Black King.
After that kicking battle, the reputation of Xiaoyao Academy really established itself in Yuhai, and many people began to come to inquire.
The apprenticeship fee of three hundred ingots did scare off many people, but when Luo Haijie promised to open a bookstore and sell cheats soon, those transcendents who were interested in powerful martial arts rekindled their enthusiasm.
Of course, this bookstore will not open so soon, Qi Wanli thinks that the current heat is not enough, Yu Hai will be their base camp in the future, and the first business must be a sensation.
Of course, that's all for later.
Around noon, Gong Changfeng personally came to the warehouse.
"Master Wu, how is the progress of the work?" the old man asked lightly.
Qi Wanli pushed his glasses, and while holding a material that he deliberately did not write out the name and purpose of, he desperately "studied", and said: "Most of them have been identified, but there are still a few causes that are very complex, and I still have to study and study." ”
Gong Changfeng glanced into the warehouse, only to see a few tattered information books on the ground, many boxes on the shelves were labeled with various new markings, and there were a few more dense pages on the list of goods.
"Master Wu's work efficiency is really high. Gong Changfeng nodded with satisfaction: "Don't be busy yet, have lunch and rest, the old man has more important work to hand over to you in the afternoon." ”
Qi Wanli pretended to be dazed and raised his head to look at Gong Changfeng, raised the material in his hand, and asked, "What about these?"
"There's no rush to this. ”
Gong Changfeng praised his serious work attitude, smiled, and said, "Things in the afternoon are more urgent. ”
Qi Wanli nodded and said, "Okay, listen to the arrangement of the palace master." ”
More urgent and important work? He secretly thought about it in his heart, guessing that it might be related to the monsters in the sea.
His current identity is an appraiser recommended by Wu Kui, although Gong Changfeng has concealed it, he has to make some appearances to show the Xichuan Provincial Water Division, so the best way is to pass it on through his own identity.
Therefore, there is a high probability that in the afternoon, Gong Changfeng will take him to a place where he can learn some information related to demon beasts.
Sure enough, after taking a nap at noon, Gong Changfeng sent someone to take Qi Wanli out of the palace mansion.
"What do you call it?" Qi Wanli asked casually following behind the man.
The man glanced at him and replied respectfully, "My name is Qin Zhi, Master Wu." ”
"Oh?" Qi Wanli pushed his glasses and said, "Qin Zhi, I remember if you were in Xiaoyao Academy a few days ago......"
Qin Zhi's face darkened, and Qi Wanli smiled: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm straightforward." ”
Qin Zhi, who was hit by the sore spot, waved his hand helplessly, changed the topic, and asked, "Master Wu, you are so capable, why haven't I heard of you in Yuhai before?"
Qi Wanli had been prepared for this kind of question, and said with a smile: "I, my job is not an appraiser, I was originally a tailor in a small town outside the city, and I like to study these things, and then someone told me that I can make money as an appraiser in a big city, so I came to try my luck." ”
"I see. ”
Qin Zhi nodded thoughtfully, and chatted with Qi Wanli a few more words, which was nothing more than gossip, and the two chatted all the way to the west of the city near the sea.
Qi Wanli looked around for a while, and then asked Qin Zhi, "Brother Qin, where are we going?"
Qin Zhi pointed to a big reef on the edge of the beach not far away and said, "Master Gong is just ahead, just listen to the master's arrangement in a while." ”
They walked onto the beach and came to a large reef, and Qi Wanli noticed that Gong Changfeng was sitting in the sea on the other side of the reef, only the position above his chest was exposed on the water, and his body faintly exuded divine power fluctuations.
Qi Wanli, who had already mastered the three cultivation paths, was extremely sensitive to the sensing of divine power, and he could sense that in the endless sea in front of him, there was something that was feeding back to Gong Changfeng through the wisps of divine power.
"Abyssal Bringer...... This was the first time I had seen the transcendent abilities of the Abyssal Emissary. ”
Qi Wanli was thinking about it, and Qin Zhi had already opened his mouth: "Master Gong, Master Wu is here." ”
Gong Changfeng, who was sitting in the sea, opened his eyes.
At the same time, Qi Wanli felt that the feedback from the sea was gone.
"Master Wu, you're here. ”
Gong Changfeng stood up, and Qi Wanli noticed that he was wearing a set of close-fitting dark blue clothes, a bit like the kind of swimsuit that covered his whole body, but there were still faint traces of scales on it.
Through the scanning and analysis of the dark element, he quickly learned about the "swimsuit" on Gong Changfeng's body, his eyes lit up, and he said, "Master Gong, this is made of the remnants of the fifth-order sea monster 'Blue Copper Monster Snake'?"
Gong Changfeng smiled and said: "Master Wu has good eyesight, the skin of this blue copper monster snake is still when the old man was in the fourth order, hiding in the dark and waiting for it to shed its skin, and then quietly picked it up, and later asked a famous craftsman to make a treasure robe, which is not only invulnerable, but also can ward off poison." ”
Seeing the people who knew the goods, Gong Changfeng couldn't help but say a few more words.
Qi Wanli cheekily praised a few words and asked, "Master Gong, where are we going?"
"Nautical mile. ”
Gong Changfeng pointed to the sea in front of him and said, "The old man was entrusted by General Wu to investigate the strange creatures in the sea, Master Wu should also know about it, right?"
"Yes. ”
"Yes. Recently, the creature has been hiding and there is no trace, and the old man has spent some effort to finally find out the nest where it was hiding before, and today I brought you Master Wu, just to see if I can judge what kind of creature it is through some traces left by it. ”
"I see. Qi Wanli smiled: "I haven't been there yet...... What about the bottom of the sea. ”
Gong Changfeng smiled: "Don't worry, with the old man here, you won't even get your clothes wet." ”
Speaking of this, Qi Wanli suddenly remembered something, that was what Tian Yuanxing said when he just woke up from the cave - the old Haimen City has sunk to the bottom of the sea.
"It seems that sooner or later, I will have to get my hands on the secret method of the Abyss Emissary, and find an opportunity to visit the former Haimen City. Alas, I just don't know if the dark element will let me stab the secret talisman in some strange place again......"
When he was full of thoughts, Gong Changfeng had already stretched out two hands, grabbing his shoulders with one hand and Qin Zhi's shoulders with the other, and plunged into the seawater.
