Chapter 31: Treasures of the Secret Path
"What are Brother Xiao's plans next?" Tang Hao asked, "If you want to enter Tianluo Academy, then after we arrive in the capital, I will immediately lead Brother Xiao to meet the dean, and I don't have to participate in any Laoshzi enrollment." ”
After learning that Xiao Yun sacrificed his life twice to save Tang Tongtong, Tang Hao's attitude towards Xiao Yun was more cordial, he just valued Xiao Yun's talent before, and just wanted to send Xiao Yun a letter of recommendation, but now he wants to directly use his relationship to let Xiao Yun enter the academy.
Xiao Yun smiled and shook his head: "Thank you Brother Tang for your kindness." But I think it's better to participate in the admissions. ”
Xiao Yun also has a sense of arrogance in his bones, he is not willing to accept Tang Hao's favor, if he enters Tianluo Academy like this, it will be inevitable to be gossiped behind his back, these are extremely rejected by Xiao Yun.
At the same time, Xiao Yun also wanted to take the opportunity of Tianluo Academy's enrollment to see the strength of the genius boy of the Dachang Dynasty.
Tang Hao obviously didn't expect Xiao Yun to refuse such a great opportunity, he looked at Xiao Yun, but there was no displeasure in his expression, but he was a little appreciative, nodded and smiled: "That's fine, with Brother Xiao's talent, plus now that he is a ninth rank of wine, there should be no problem in entering Tianluo Academy." ”
Tang Hao could see the improvement of Xiao Yun's cultivation at a glance, but he was not as surprised as Tang Tongtong, after all, he was already in the wine master realm, and he basically didn't have much feeling about the improvement of the cultivation of the wine qi realm, unless it was a leap forward far beyond ordinary people.
And when he first met Xiao Yun on the hillside, he saw that Xiao Yun was about to break through soon, although he also felt that the breakthrough between fighting with the drunken corpse was a little abrupt and strange, but he still felt that it was not too surprising.
At this time, Wang Yi, who had been silent, suddenly said: "Brother Tang forgot one thing, this enrollment is different from the past, the talent of many candidates in this session can be regarded as amazing, even if the top ones are compared with you and me, they are not much inferior, it is said that there is a candidate Luo Jun from a small family in Luozhou, who has not yet reached the age of eighteen, and is already a drunkard in the fifth stage." ”
He looked at Xiao Yun and said lightly: "Brother Xiao is certainly very talented, but compared to this Luo Jun, it seems that it is still very inferior, and besides, you have not yet reached the realm of alcoholics, in my opinion, Brother Xiao should not be too big." ”
Tang Hao and Tang Tongtong frowned when they heard this, but they couldn't say anything.
Xiao Yun's eyes flashed, and he said lightly: "This doesn't bother Brother Wang." ”
When he first met Xiao Yun, Wang Yi had undisguised disdain for Xiao Yun, and after Zizhu Sect and his party, he finally restrained a little, but the superiority in his words was still obvious.
Xiao Yun understood in his heart that Wang Yi sounded like he had good intentions, but he was actually eager to show himself in front of Tang Tongtong, so as to overwhelm himself who had saved Tang Tongtong, but it was a pity that his arrogant nature was difficult to change.
Wang Yi's face immediately became ugly.
"Ambitious. Tang Hao didn't seem to want to see Xiao Yun and Wang Yi go toe-to-toe, gave Xiao Yun a thumbs up, and said, "Since Brother Xiao wants to take the opportunity to see it, then I won't force it." Let's go back to the capital now. ”
Xiao Yun stood still, and arched his hand: "Brother Tang, please go back first, it's the first time I've gone out, and I want to enjoy the scenery along the road, so I won't follow Brother Tang all the way." ”
In fact, if Tang Hao had four fire horn horses, Xiao Yun wouldn't mind walking with Tang Hao, but now there were only three, and if he did, there would definitely be two people riding on the same horse. Needless to say, Tang Tongtong must be riding alone, and Tang Hao is the oldest, so Xiao Yun will probably ride the same horse as Wang Yi.
Of course, this is difficult for Xiao Yun to accept.
Tang Tongtong knew Xiao Yun's thoughts, and immediately said: "It's far away from the capital here, you"
When he heard Xiao Yun's refusal, a hint of joy flashed on Wang Yi's face, and when he heard Tang Tongtong's anxious tone, his face became gloomy again.
"In that case, I won't force it. Tang Hao thought thoroughly, immediately understood, groaned, reached into his arms, took out a small cloth bag, and handed it to Xiao Yundao: "Here are some silver taels, the right to be Brother Xiao's entanglement along the way, Brother Xiao shouldn't refuse this time, right?"
Xiao Yun smiled and reached out to take it.
In the world, silver taels are still indispensable, Xiao Yun was also wondering if he would find a pawnshop along the way to exchange some war wine for silver money, but he didn't expect Tang Hao to think so thoughtfully.
Tang Hao thought that Xiao Yun still refused to want to, but he didn't expect Xiao Yun to be so cheerful this time, and glanced at Xiao Yun in surprise, but the look of appreciation in his eyes was even stronger, and he hugged his fists and said: "Brother Xiao has a smooth journey and said goodbye." ”
"Brother Tang, slow down. Xiao Yun suddenly said, "I still have something to ask." ”
Tang Hao looked at Xiao Yun in surprise: "Brother Xiao just ask." ”
"Brother Tang, do you know that there are several county lords in the capital?" Xiao Yun asked with a strange look on his face.
After learning that there was a plot to marry the county lord next, Xiao Yun was overjoyed, and he didn't find a huge loophole in the author's introduction for a while, that is, if there are multiple county lords in the capital, do you have to marry all the county lords to end it?
This is clearly an impossible task.
Just as Tang Hao was about to turn around and leave, Xiao Yun suddenly thought of this fatal question and took the opportunity to ask it.
When Tang Hao and the others heard this, the expressions on their faces immediately became stranger than Xiao Yun's, and they seemed to feel that this question was too unbelievable. Especially Tang Tongtong, his face is even more difficult to describe.
"There are many county lords in the capital. Tang Hao stared at Xiao Yun and said slowly.
Xiao Yun's heart immediately sank.
"But if you want to say that the current emperor is the county lord, there is only one. Tang Hao continued.
Xiao Yun was stunned, and his heart was overjoyed, and he immediately determined that the county lord he wanted to marry in the plot must be the county lord who was personally appointed by the emperor.
"I don't know what this county lord's name is?" Xiao Yun immediately asked again.
Tang Hao's expression on his face was even stranger, and he said slowly: "Lord Mengqi." ”
"Lord Mengqi, Lord Mengqi. Xiao Yun muttered twice, and hugged his fists with a smile, "Thank you Brother Tang for your advice." ”
This matter is very important to him, and Xiao Yun's gratitude is sincere. The joy on Xiao Yun's face made Tang Hao and the three of them even more puzzled, Tang Hao turned his head to look at Wang Yi and Tang Tongtong, who both had different colors on their faces, frowned and asked, "Brother Xiao suddenly asked this question, does the county lord of Mengqi have anything to do with you?"
Xiao Yun shook his head and smiled: "That's not true." It's just a little curious. ”
His mouth was perfunctory, but Xiao Yun said in his heart: "If you don't have it now, it will be difficult to say in the future." ”
Tang Hao and the three of them all heard that Xiao Yun was perfunctory, but they were not easy to ask, so they all said goodbye to Xiao Yun and ran towards the slopes of the Gobi Mountains.
Before leaving, Wang Yi glanced at Xiao Yun coldly as if he was treating an enemy.
Tang Tongtong was the last to turn around as if he was reluctant to turn around, open his mouth to speak, but finally didn't ask anything, and said softly: "Take care." He turned around and followed Tang Hao.
Soon, at the col, only Xiao Yun was left.
Xiao Yun put the small cloth bag in his hand into his arms, and did not follow Tang Hao and the others, watching the three of them turn into three small black dots from a distance, and when he turned around, he took a leap, but he was extremely fast and ran towards the way he came.
Half an hour later, Xiao Yun came to the entrance of the secret passage at the foot of the mountain, and got into it in a flash.
When he and Tang Tongtong escaped from the secret passage, Xiao Yun saw a bright light flash in the dark, and he remembered it in his heart at that time. This dark passage was originally built by the zombie sect master secretly to prepare for the unexpected, it was not a place to hide things, and the bright light was clearly emitted by the same thing.
Xiao Yun thought of the defeat of the zombie sect master and the Wu clan, and the Wu clan died early, and the note mentioned that the Wu clan used something to invade the sanity, which couldn't help but make Xiao Yun think about it.
Soon, Xiao Yun came to the dark place where the light was found.
However, at this time, there was darkness in the dark passage, Xiao Yun walked back and forth, left and right, and after half a sound, he still did not find any purple light flashing again. It's a pity that he doesn't have a fire fold or anything like that in his hand, so he can't look closely, so after a little groaning, he turned to the stone room in front of him.
There was a dead silence in the stone room, and it was a mess inside, Xiao Yun raised his head to the only remaining white beads embedded in the top wall, opened his mouth and spewed out a mouthful of drunkenness, and the white beads emitting a hazy white light fell from the top wall immediately.
Xiao Yun caught it and re-entered the dark passage.
The hazy white light illuminated the snow white in the dark passage, and this time as soon as he walked more than two feet away, Xiao Yun saw it clearly from a distance, and couldn't help but whisper.
I saw that on the broken stone wall on the left, a large hole was recessed inside, which seemed to have been bombarded by someone, and in this big hole, there was a huge insect with a strange appearance lying motionless.
The insect almost occupies the entire stone cave, curled up inside, the head is very small, but the lower body is long and large, and the limbs are like four huge crab claws.
But Xiao Yun's first impression was that he immediately thought of the insects on the alien planet in the movie "Star River Troopers" that he had seen, which were almost exactly the same as the appearance of the insect in front of him, and an incredible thought came to him: "This insect should be the Wu Clan, could it be that the Wu Clan is from an alien planet?"
However, Xiao Yun immediately smiled, his thoughts were too wild, he stepped forward with a white bead in his hand, his eyes searched carefully around the insect, and soon, he saw the thing that emitted purple light.
This thing was between the two forelimbs of the insect, and since it was almost completely covered, Xiao Yun didn't notice it just now.
This is a transparent ball, which seems to be burning with a purple flame, jumping uncertainly, and the whole bead is also flashing with a touch of purple brilliance, which looks beautiful and weird.
Xiao Yun did not step forward to retrieve the bead immediately, his gaze bypassed the bead and continued to explore around the insect, and after a while, when nothing was found, Xiao Yun stepped forward and slowly took the purple orb out from under the insect's forelimbs.
The body of this insect was so big, Xiao Yun inevitably touched the body of this insect, but the insect was stiff and immovable, obviously dying early.
Holding the bead in his hand, Xiao Yun looked at it fixedly, and then he saw clearly that this fist-sized bead was made of unknown materials, the appearance was a thin film, transparent but extremely solid, and inside the bead, the purple light was not a flame, but hundreds of purple points of light that jumped back and forth.
Looking at these needlepoint-sized points of light, for some reason, Xiao Yun suddenly had a strange feeling, he felt that this strange bead seemed to have some inexplicable connection with the black ball in his abdomen.
