Chapter 822: Traitor
In the end, the black-robed woman didn't get her wish, and only exchanged for a spirit pill related to improving combat power, and turned away.
Lao Chaofeng did not rush out to welcome guests this time.
He turned around and arched his hand towards Su Yi and said, "My lord, there are a lot of strange things today, could it be that there will be a big change in this Ziluo City?" ”
Cui Jingyan's eyes were also staring at Su Yi, and she had already held back her doubts.
Old God Su Yi was sitting in the dark shadows, and said, "It has nothing to do with you, go and welcome guests." ”
The old court said, "What Master Su said is extremely true. ”
He turned and walked out of the pawnshop.
Soon, the old courtier brought in another guest.
This is a black-robed man, with a black beast-patterned copper mask on his face, only a pair of eyes are exposed, and even the aura of his body is covered by wisps of black smoke, making it impossible to see his cultivation.
"I have a treasure in my hand, I don't know if you can eat it in the pawnshop."
The black-robed man spoke, his voice hoarse.
Lao Chaofeng smiled warmly and said, "Then it depends on what treasure Your Excellency wants to exchange for here." ”
The black-robed man was silent for a moment, took out a wooden box from his sleeve robe, rested it on the counter, and said, "Fellow Daoists, you can take a look first." ”
Lao Chaofeng glanced at the weighing scale, and saw that this treasure flashed, and the wooden box fell on the weighing pan.
As the weighing pan shook, the weighing rod suddenly rippled like a star, and the weighing stone emerged with heavy lines.
This is the "discretionary scale" in sensing and measuring the treasure and value in the wooden box.
This was an eye-opener for Cui Jingyan.
Su Yi was not surprised.
Whether it is a discretionary scale, a star abacus, or a knock clock, it is the treasure of the pawnshop of the heavens, which is extremely miraculous, and it can be regarded as a first-class divine object in the heavens.
If it weren't for the fact that he didn't want to provoke the owner of the pawnshop, Su Yi would want to keep these three treasures for himself......
After half a ring, the judge suddenly asked, "Does the guest really want to pawn the treasure in the wooden box?" ”
"Not bad."
The black-robed man nodded.
"Questions?"
The old Chaofeng frowned and asked the discretionary scale.
The judge replied: "The treasure in the wooden box is the ancestral treasure of the Cui family, the 'Dark Thunder Mirror'. ”
As soon as these words came out, Cui Jingyan's pretty face changed suddenly, and she was so shocked that she wanted to get up directly, but Su Yi held down her shoulders and covered her mouth for the first time.
"Don't panic."
Su Yi's voice sounded in the girl's ears.
Cui Jingyan's expression was uncertain.
The old Chaofeng was also stunned for a moment, he had already learned from the conversation between Su Yi and Cui Jingyan that the extremely beautiful girl was the daughter of the head of the Cui family.
After thinking about it, the old court said: "Your Excellency pawned this treasure, what kind of treasure do you want to exchange?" ”
The black-robed man said, "It can help the Emperor of the Xuanzhao Realm break the bottleneck and step into the secret method of the Xuanzhao Realm, or the elixir." ”
Lao Chaofeng was stunned for a moment, and was about to say something, when Su Yi's voice sounded in his ears:
"Tell him that if he wants such a secret method, he will never have a chance to redeem the Thunder Mirror. If he agrees, I will give him a copy of this secret method, and promise to satisfy him. ”
Lao Chaofeng's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said to the black-robed man with a smile: "Don't hide it from Your Excellency, there are indeed things you need in the pawnshop, but...... If you pawn it, you won't be able to redeem it in the future. ”
Unexpectedly, after pondering for a moment, the black-robed man happily agreed: "Yes." ”
Old Chaofeng glanced at the scale.
I saw that the weighing scale shook for a while, and the wooden box on the weighing pan disappeared, and then an extra jade slip came out.
This jade slip has just been baked, from Su Yi's handwriting.
"Your Excellency, please take it."
The old Chaofeng smiled and presented the jade slip to the past.
The black-robed man probed his divine sense into it and looked at it for a moment, and his eyes flashed with a rare look of excitement.
Then, he bowed his hand to the old court: "Thank you! ”
"It's just a buy, your Excellency is too polite."
Lao Chaofeng said with a smile.
Soon, the black-robed man hurried away.
"Master Su, this person's origin is obviously strange."
Old Chaofeng couldn't help but say.
As he spoke, he looked at Cui Jingyan and found that the girl's face was pale, and the corners of her eyebrows and eyes were full of haze.
Undoubtedly, the girl also realized that something was wrong.
Su Yi looked at a black bronze mirror resting in the wooden box, and said softly: "It is indeed the 'Dark Thunder Mirror', this treasure can be used by the Nine Nether Thunder, and its power is unpredictable, but more importantly, this treasure is the key to the operation of the Cui family's forbidden array." ”
"If there is no such treasure, the power of the Cui family's forbidden array will be sharply reduced by at least three percent."
Speaking of this, he looked at Cui Jingyan and said, "In a short time, the thousand-year-old Ten Thousand Lights Festival will come, and at the same time, there are still some ancient clan forces eyeing your Cui family, but at this juncture, there seems to be a traitor in your Cui family." ”
Traitor!
With just two words, it seemed to hit Cui Jingyan's mind, and the girl was so angry that she gritted her teeth and said angrily: "I really didn't expect that someone in the Cui family would pawn the clan's heavy treasures, like this, it's a crime to die!" ”
So saying, the maiden got up and left, intending to go back to her clan and tell her father about it.
Su Yi stopped a little helplessly: "What are you panicking about, are you sure that your Cui family is this traitor?" ”
Cui Jingyan was stunned for a moment and said, "Brother Su, what do you mean by this?" ”
Su Yiwen said: "I mean, don't startle the snake first, let's see what the traitor is planning, and who he is contacting during this time, and then catch it all in one go, and never suffer in the future." ”
The old Chaofeng couldn't help but praise: "Lord Su's words are the way to do it once and for all." ”
The discretionary scale, the knock clock, and the degree star abacus are all in harmony.
Cui Jingyan calmed down and said, "That guy pawned the Dark Thunder Mirror in exchange for the method of entering the Xuanzhao Realm, which undoubtedly means that his cultivation is already at the level of the Great Perfection of the Xuanzhao Realm, and he will not be able to break through for a long time, otherwise, he will never do such a thing that loses his conscience." In this way, it is easy to guess the identity ......"
In the girl's mind, some old guys from the Cui family have emerged.
Su Yi thought for a while and said, "What you said is not bad, but it is definitely not the real reason. ”
Cui Jingyan humbly asked: "Please also ask Brother Su for advice." ”
"Since this person dares to pawn the Dark Thunder Mirror at this time, there must be a way to make your Cui family suspect him."
Su Yi said casually, "And the reason why he wants to be this treasure is very simple, that is, to weaken the power of your Cui family's forbidden formation." ”
"What's more, as long as you sell this treasure to the Heavenly Pawnshop, no one will be able to find out who did it, and you can also get a copy of the secret method of breaking the realm, why not?"
Cui Jingyan frowned and said, "If you say it, then it will be difficult to find out the identity of this person." ”
Su Yi looked at Lao Chaofeng and said, "According to the rules, your pawnshop can't reveal the identity of the guest, but the transaction just now was made by me and the other party, do you think telling his identity is a violation of the rules?" ”
"Uh...... This ......"
The old court hesitated.
But the heart bell, the discretionary scale, and the star abacus all said in unison: "Lord Su's move is naturally not a violation of the rules of the pawnshop. ”
Lao Chaofeng's face stiffened, and he couldn't wait to slap these instrument spirits, can you discuss it with yourself when you speak?
What do you think of me by doing this?
I saw that the old Chaofeng coughed dryly, and said with a smile on his face: "Back to Lord Su, although the guest just now covered his breath, and even his appearance was covered by secret methods, in this heavenly pawnshop, it is not difficult to get a glimpse of his appearance......
Don't wait for him to finish.
Sou!
A picture scroll swept out and appeared in front of Su Yi.
I saw a soft and sweet voice from the heart-knocking bell: "Master Su, in the picture scroll is the portrait of the guest just now, please take a look." ”
The old court's cheeks twitched, are these little bastards planning to rebel!?
How did you see Master Su, and there was no bottom line and perseverance at all?
Shame on you!!
The old courteer wailed in his heart, and with a smile on his face, he praised it: "The knocking bell is doing well, and the portrait should have been taken out a long time ago." ”
Su Yi naturally didn't bother to pay attention to the "fickle" attitude of the old court.
When he opened the scroll, he saw that it was a middle-aged man with gray hair and fairy bones.
"How can it be the Third Elder!?"
Cui Jingyan cried out in disbelief.
"It's not strange to know people and faces but not hearts."
Su Yi said indifferently.
Cui Jingyan shook his head and said, "No, the third elder is only in the middle stage of the Xuanzhao Realm cultivation now, and over the years, he has been assisting my father, fulfilling his duties, and never showing any abnormalities. ”
"Moreover, the Dark Thunder Mirror has always been kept by the Great Elder, and it was ...... before I thought the traitor was the Great Elder. ”
In the end, Cui Jingyan's expression was full of gloom.
Su Yi said: "It seems that this traitor deliberately wanted to frame the Great Elder of your Cui family, and if the Thunder Mirror is lost, the Great Elder is destined to be speechless." ”
"Damn!"
Cui Jingyan was so angry that her face was cold.
Su Yi put away the scroll and said, "You have to hide this matter in your stomach first, and you must not startle the snake." ”
Cui Jingyan nodded.
"Fellow Daoist, can my master and apprentice enter the pawnshop?"
Suddenly, an old and gentle voice sounded outside the pawnshop.
This voice is very familiar to Su Yi and Cui Jingyan.
The old Chaofeng slapped his forehead and said, "I almost forgot about this old man and young man." ”
As he spoke, he walked out of the pawnshop.
Soon, the old courtier walked into the pawnshop with an old man in a Taoist robe and a young man in a white robe.
Neither of them concealed their appearances, so that Su Yi and Cui Jingyan recognized at a glance that these two people were the pair of masters and apprentices who had come to the Netherworld with Su Yi!
"What are you here for?"
Old Chao Feng asked with a smile.
The old man in the Taoist robe bowed first, and then said: "My master and apprentice are here this time specifically for the 'jade' left by the 'Ten Palaces of Yama'. ”
As soon as these words came out, Lao Chaofeng's pupils narrowed slightly.
The atmosphere of the whole pawnshop was much more dreary.
Su Yi smiled silently, he was not surprised by this.
As early as when he saw this pair of masters and apprentices in the Cangqing Continent, he had already guessed that the almost extinct imperial road that this pair of masters and apprentices were trying to plot was related to the "Ten Palaces of Yama" that had long disappeared in the long river of time!
