Volume 1 Ordinary Hidden Immortals Chapter 21 Conditions
After Nangong Xiao said these words, he paused slightly, and his eyes observed the change in Qian Baocai's expression.
Although Qian Baocai showed a look of horror at the hand he showed just now, he quickly covered it up, but his actions were more respectful.
Nangong Xiao looked at it secretly in his eyes, entrusting this person to do things, it seems that he will not spend too much energy on himself, he should be able to grasp it very well, so he continued: "I need a secret place to cultivate, I don't know if the owner of the Qian Zhuang has it?" ”
"A hidden place? Yes, there is! There is a secret room of my Qian family in the house, just behind the rockery in the southwest of the courtyard, only the generations of family heads will know, and it is very safe and hidden. Qian Baocai thought for a while, and then hurriedly replied.
"Hmm." Nangong Xiao nodded with satisfaction, Qian Baocai's answer was as he expected. After all, such a large family business will inevitably suffer disasters, and it is natural to have one or two hiding places.
"Then you can take me to see it now."
"Yes."
Qian Baocai said, and with a smile on his face, he took Nangong Xiao to the southwest of the courtyard, and when he passed by the door, he saw the two family members standing unconscious, and he was a little surprised, but he quickly returned to normal.
Qian Baocai was also knowledgeable, knowing that Nangong Xiao didn't want to be bumped into by anyone, so he picked a path that few people knew, so no one found anyone along the way.
After turning around, he came to a rockery. Qian Baocai did not avoid Nangong Xiao, went around the back of the rockery, removed a mechanism that seemed to be an ordinary stone, and revealed a gossip plate.
The wallet stretched out his hand to turn the gossip plate and explained to Nangong Xiao: "Senior, this gossip plate mechanism corresponds to the time of the day at all times, and it can only be opened if the gossip plate is turned to the corresponding time and moment at that time. ”
As he was talking, he heard only a mechanical sound, and the stone wall of the rockery was separated layer by layer, revealing a gate made of fine iron. Qian Baocai took out a pitch-black key from the sleeve of his robe, stuffed it into the keyhole of the door, and with a slight turn, the door opened. Then respectfully handed the key to Nangong Xiao's hand.
Nangong Xiao watched all this calmly, he was not surprised that Qian Baocai was so happy and generous to give up this hideout, and seeing that the other party did not have the slightest expression of pain, he knew that there must be more than one similar place in this Qian Mansion, which can be described as a cunning rabbit three holes, and he couldn't help but secretly say to the old fox.
He raised his legs and stepped into the door, the space inside was not small, five or six zhang large, all kinds of daily facilities, and there was also a basement, which was thirteen or fourteen zhang in size, which was the real place for Tibetans.
Nangong Xiao looked at it and felt good, so he instructed Qian Baocai that he should not step into this place for half a step, unless he had his own approval, he would not be killed.
Qian Baocai listened to it again and again. Then Nangong Xiao showed him the appearance of the spirit grass and jade jian, and told him that he only found similar strange items, no matter what it was, as long as he had the ability, he would collect it, and if he didn't have the ability to buy it, he would come back and tell himself.
After saying this, Qian Baocai saw that Nangong Xiao had finished his orders, and he was about to withdraw from the room.
Nangong Xiao shouted unhurriedly to stop him, "The owner of the Qian Zhuang is really in a hurry, why don't you talk about your conditions?" ”
After hearing this, Qian Baocai replied respectfully, "It's an honor to be able to do things for my predecessors, how dare I ask for anything......"
"Okay, don't be polite," Nangong Xiao interrupted him with words, "Take advantage of my good mood now, tell me about your conditions, otherwise it won't be said that I am bullying mortals." ”
Qian Baocai's words Nangong Xiao naturally can't do it, the so-called no treachery and no business, even if he saved this person's life, he would not have done this, he must have a plan.
Besides, if you give others some sweetness, you will do things for yourself, otherwise you will have no choice.
And under his own authority, he didn't dare to make any excessive demands.
Qian Baocai was overjoyed when he heard this, of course he wanted the benefits, but if he brought it up himself, he was afraid that it would cause the other party to be disgusted. So I put up with it and didn't say anything. Now that Nangong Xiao took the initiative to bring it up, he was naturally overjoyed.
At the moment, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and said, "The younger generation does not have any excessive requirements, but the younger generation has been in business for a long time, and has provoked some enemies outside. ”
Nangong Xiao frowned slightly after hearing this, this first one is nothing, taking people's money to eliminate disasters for others.
However, this second one is a little difficult to do, this money bank is mainly really staring at its own name to expand around, in case it kicks the iron plate, isn't it putting itself in?
Judging from the encounter with Qin Suxin, although there are not many cultivators in the secular world, they can sometimes be encountered, and maybe there is a backstage who is the same as himself. That's a bit risky.
But if you refuse, then Qian Baocai will have a thorn in your heart, and I am afraid that you will not be able to work hard in the future. He thought about it for a while, and said to Qian Baocai, "I can promise you this first article, as long as I can do it, I will ensure the safety of your family." As for the second one, I must not be called by my name unless the matter has reached the point of necessity. ”
"Juniors, thank you, seniors." Although Qian Baocai was slightly disappointed, his original goal was almost achieved, and he was relatively satisfied. After a few more thanks, he walked out of the door.
After Qian Baocai left, Nangong Xiao took out the small jar and transformed it into a flower bed and placed it in the basement. Then they dug up the hiding things outside the city and put them in.
In the next few days, Nangong Xiao went back and forth between the Li Mansion and the Qian Mansion, because he did not say his real name, and the Li family's son was not famous because of Li Tianhao's neglect, and Lucheng had a population of nearly 100,000, and Qian Baocai was impossible to find.
Every day after breakfast, I would go to the secret room to meditate and practice, come back after sunset for dinner, and then go back again, and when the sky was getting brighter, I would return to my room without realizing it.
What made him happy was that because the flower bed could continue to absorb aura, the aura consumption of purple soil was much less.
In addition, with the maturity of the spirit grass, the spirit grass itself also began to exude a slight aura, which increased the density of the spiritual energy in the basement a lot, and combined with the occasional use of one or two spirit grasses by himself, his cultivation speed increased a lot compared to before.
In the early morning of this day, Nangong Xiaomei finished enjoying her breakfast, and just wanted to leave for the secret room of the Qian Mansion to continue her cultivation. A family member who had never seen it before hurriedly ran into the garden, and after seeing Nangong Xiao, he first saluted, and then said anxiously, "Ninth Young Master, the master is looking for you." ”
Nangong Xiao was stunned when he heard this, this is the sun coming out in the west, what can he do with himself, it is definitely not a good thing anyway. But it's better to ask first, so as to prepare, if the theft of the treasure is suspected of him, then he really has to be prepared to run away.
"Tell me what the hell is going on?"
"I don't know about this little one, I only know that there are guests in the house, and it seems to be related to the young master." Jia Ding replied anxiously.
"Oh, that's right." Nangong Xiaowen's heart was relieved, it didn't seem to be what he imagined, then it shouldn't be a big deal, so he opened his mouth and said, "Take me quickly." ”
"Yes, yes," the family immediately led Nangong Xiao to the living room.
