Chapter 89: Treasure Blade
The lights on both sides of Longzangpu are as bright as ever, and the night is not extinguished, and there is a scene of singing and dancing.
Zhao Xiao stood on the bow of the boat, looking around the pavilions on the left and right, and above there were prostitutes shaking silk silks to attract customers, or sprinkle flower petals, attracting attention.
He Dangguan couldn't help but look around, and when Zhao Huang saw him like this, he asked, "Did you often come to Longzangpu before?" β
"Of course not!" He Dangguan was embarrassed: "With my past net worth, where do I dare to spend money in Longzangpu?" In order to understand the sorrow, I begged to see Miss Xianhui by selling my property. The Oiran of the Zhuzhu Building, who usually receives nobles in the capital, looks down on me as a reckless martial artist. β
"You also understand what Zheng Yulou meant, I can't help you get back the Relief Jue right now." Zhao Xiao glanced back at Zheng Tunan, and the other party's face was full of respectful smiles, which made him feel strange and unpredictable.
He Dangguan hurriedly said: "Deacon Zhao doesn't have to be reluctant, you are an official in the court, of course, you have to give priority to official business." β
What's more, now He Dangguan is by Zhao Xiao's side as the internal guard, and he also has to teach cultivation techniques, compared to the previous groveling and being blinded to begging a prostitute, it can be regarded as a complete makeover.
Zhao Xiao pouted, now that he is the deacon of the Jinding Division, he is certainly respected by others, but he feels somewhat constrained, and many methods and calculations are inconvenient.
Looking back now, although he was afraid of designing to deal with Liang Shuo in Xingluo County before, he was still quite refreshed in his heart.
The ship docked, and under the leadership of Zheng Tunan, Zhao Xiao and the others turned around and came to a quiet courtyard.
Different from the lanterns and torches hung in ordinary houses, stone lamps are placed at the four corners of this courtyard, and the cloud beam stone in the middle radiates a soft light, which at first glance is the means of a sorcerer monk.
"This is the Jackpot Pavilion." Zheng Tunan introduced it to Zhao Huang, and at the same time took out a talisman from his arms: "Although the Jackpot Pavilion is in the market, ordinary people can't enter and exit at will, so you need to use this talisman to get started." β
Zhao Huang asked, "If it's the first time you come to the Jackpot Pavilion, how can you get this talisman?" β
Zheng Tu Nan replied: "The entry talismans are all recommended by fellow practitioners in the cabinet to each other, and foreign monks who don't know anything are not welcome here. β
"I originally thought that there were countless treasures in the Chongxuan Pavilion, and there shouldn't be any need to come to this kind of place to find magic weapons and spiritual materials." Zhao Xiao said.
Zheng Tu Nan said: "Deacon Zhao should know that since our Huaxu Kingdom established the pavilion system, many immortal cultivation sects are difficult to sustain, if these monks are unwilling to switch to the pavilion, this is the place for them to come and go. And some spiritual materials that are inconvenient to obtain in the hall can also be found in the Jackpot Pavilion. β
Zhao Xiao nodded in response, which was not surprising. It's just that thinking of these disciples of the Immortal Cultivation Sect actually want to huddle between the brothels of Longzangpu, it can't help but make people sigh.
As for saying that there was an immortal magic weapon in the Jackpot Pavilion, Zhao Xiao didn't believe it. With the domineering and domineering of the Chongxuan Pavilion, will he sit back and watch the scattered cultivation under his nose hide the magic weapon of the immortal family and not seize it?
Moreover, the inheritance of the broken immortal cultivation sect, the remaining scattered sect people are also difficult to become a climate, this treasure pavilion in Zhao Xiao's view, is more like a place for the rivers and lakes to gather together. Those who really have the ability and vision have already switched to the museum and become famous.
Zheng Tunan drove the talisman, and the ban on the courtyard gate was lifted, and then a person took the initiative to open the door, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Zheng Gongzi, and he was disappointed." These are ......"
"This is Deacon Zhao of the Jinding Division." Zheng Tunan held his head high, as if Zhao Xiao's existence gave him more confidence: "You guys have been transferred today, this big man has come to the Treasure Pavilion, why don't you hurry up and report it?" β
Zhao Xiao didn't bother to care about Zheng Tunan's fake tiger power, so he simply stepped into the courtyard, and looked left and right with Yingxuan's Jingshu, but he was dizzy by all kinds of mixed lights.
There are all kinds of gas machines mixed here, and some filthy gas lingers. Zhao Xiao thought that there were brothels and women near the Jackpot Pavilion, so don't expect this kind of place to be clean. The more Zhao Xiao looked at it, the more unhappy he became, thinking that he would leave after two sentences.
"This is Deacon Zhao?"
But seeing a woman holding a fan in her hand, curling up, with a very strong smell of fat powder on her body, she came to Zhao Xiao and bowed: "Little girl Lan Musk, Deacon Zhao is here in person, it is the luck of my Treasure Pavilion." β
Zhao Xiao pressed his impatience and waved his hand and said, "No need to be polite." I heard Zheng Gongzi say that there are many treasures in the Jackpot Pavilion, and Zhao is here to open his eyes. β
Lan Musk covered his mouth with a fan and chuckled, "Zheng Gongzi has been raised." Deacon Zhao waited for a moment and had some refreshments, and I immediately called someone to take out the treasures in the pavilion. β
Zhao Xiao and others entered the hall and sat down one after another, and then a maidservant brought a fragrant drink, the soup was pale red like a glow, and the fragrance was fragrant. Zheng Siyuan and He Dangguan tasted the fragrant drink unceremoniously, but Zhao Xiao was not interested in it, and his fingers tapped his knees to kill his leisure.
After a while, more than a dozen servants came with various utensils in their hands, and Lan Musk shook the fan and smiled smartly: "These are the treasures in the pavilion, and I invite Deacon Zhao to take a look." β
Zhao Xiao got up and looked around, and asked, "Miss Lan Musk doesn't plan to introduce a few words?" β
Lan Musk smiled and said, "It's not that the little woman is rude, we have already heard of Deacon Zhao's mastery of refining weapons, so I want Deacon Zhao to taste the treasures in the pavilion." β
"Oh, you want to use my words as a signboard?" Zhao Xiao asked.
"Please also ask Deacon Zhao to forgive one or two." Lan Musk immediately said, "As long as Deacon Zhao can tell the origin and general use of these treasures, you can take any three samples and take them directly." β
Zhao Xiao raised his eyebrows, suddenly became interested, stared at the treasures, and after a moment, he pointed to an apricot yellow jewel and said: "This is the Dingzhu of Wutu Town, which was originally created by Ge Xian Weng of the Tianxia Dynasty. This bead turns into the righteous qi of the earth, which can regulate water and fire, and merge gold and wood.
Wai Dan family open the furnace smelting, the most taboo fire by the outside gas disturbed, in order to refine the big Dan, it is necessary to place the furnace Ding Zhu in this Wutu Town. However, this one is not made by the immortal Weng himself, and there is still a bit of miscellaneous gas in the gas of the earth, which should be imitated by the immortal Weng. β
"It seems that Deacon Zhao is not only proficient in refining, but also has a lot of insight into the study of foreign Dan Huang Bai." Lan Musk couldn't help but cast a wink at Zhao Xiao.
Zhao Huang resisted the urge to roll his eyes, wondering if the Treasure Pavilion had been in Longzangpu for a long time, and the monks here were all as virtuous as prostitutes?
"This." Zhao Xiao pointed to a green steel knife that was more than a foot long: "Cutting jade blades, nine times out of ten, they come from the Hanhai Yuyi in the western soil of Kunlun." That area is rich in Kunlun jade, and the ancient monks created a jade cutting blade in order to cut the jade material without damaging the clear qi. This thing is in the country of Yaochi, and almost everyone who cultivates to a slightly higher level has a handle, so you can also use it as a treasure? β
Lan Musk explained: "Hanhai Yuyi is thousands of miles away, not to mention that the jade cutting blade is also a symbol of status in the Yaochi Kingdom, just like the ribbon around Deacon Zhao's waist. β
"Sharp teeth." Zhao Xiao scolded his belly, and then turned to the side to continue watching.
"Cutting jade blades? Can I take a look? Zheng Tunan got up and asked.
"Zheng Gongzi, please." Lan Musk laughed.
Zheng Tunan didn't answer, picked up the jade cutting blade and played with it, his eyes were deep.
Below, He Dangguan was in a daze, he didn't know anything about these magic weapons and spiritual materials, and thought to himself that he was working beside Zhao Xiao, should he also learn these things.
When He Dangguan was thinking about it, he suddenly felt a strange feeling in his abdomen, and the true qi in his body began to wander indiscriminately, just as he was puzzled, he raised his eyes and saw Zheng Tunan holding the jade cutting blade in his hand, his expression gradually became hideous, and he turned to look at Zhao Xiao.
"Be carefulβ"
As soon as He Dangguan shouted, Zheng Tunan pounced on Zhao Mi, and without the slightest reaction at hand, the jade cutting blade stabbed Zhao Mi's vest fiercely.
Zhao Huang was caught off guard, let out a muffled snort, the whole person staggered a few steps, and turned his head to see Zheng Tunan holding a jade cutting blade, looking at him with a crazy expression. Fortunately, Zhao Xiao cultivated the Covenant Ring that he carried with him every day, even if it was a sharp blade that could cut jade and divide gold, it could not penetrate the golden armor of the Covenant Ring.
"You ......"
Zhao Xiao hesitated for a moment, Lan Musk was the first to move, she waved her fan, and a large area of crimson smoke miasma blew out, instantly filling the hall and covering people's eyes. The crimson smoke miasma was close to the seven orifices of his head and face, and Zhao Xiao immediately closed his breath, and at the same time sensed the killing intent coming from all directions.
First, a burst of qi locked Zhao Xiao's limbs and torso, and then Zheng Tunan pulled out the Hongming knife at his waist and slashed at him.
At the moment, Zhao Xiao couldn't think about the reason, he silently carried Xuanzhu, broke free from the qi ban and avoided the blade.
However, Zheng Tunan was like a beast, the corners of his mouth were salivating, his madness was complete, the knife was cold, and a series of dense knife moves were in hot pursuit. Zhao Xiao knew that the other party's Hongming knife had the wonderful effect of breaking the qi machine cloth, so he didn't dare to go straight ahead, so he immediately took a leap forward, and relied on Yingxuan's Jingjing technique to find Zheng Siyuan and He Dangguan.
But before Zhao Xiao could speak, the surrounding flying talismans leaped into flames and magic weapon brilliance attacked directly, and a series of explosions covered Zhao Huang and the three of them.
The firelight clashed and blew away the smoke miasma, and saw Zhao Xiao unfold a five-colored brilliance to protect Zheng He and the two, and took advantage of the moment to drag the two people with weak hands and feet, and jumped out of the hall directly.
As soon as Zhao Xiao landed, seeing the pale faces of the two people beside him, Zheng Siyuan said with difficulty: "Tea...... Poisonous. β
"Hit the mark!" As soon as Zhao Xiao gritted his teeth, and without saying more, he could hear the sound of breaking the air above, and a figure holding a broad-bladed long knife slashed towards him.
Zhao Huang raised his sleeves and raised his hand, and the Yin Tiger Order flew out of it, instantly becoming bigger like a blow, turning into a black iron tiger, hitting the broad-bladed long knife head-on, and exploding a little spark in mid-air.
Both of them fell to the ground, the ground trembled slightly, and Zhao Xiao saw clearly that the other party had a wolf head, with a prominent mouth and jaw, a mouth full of fangs, a pair of dark green eyes that could not hide the killing intent, and the five fingers of the arms outside the sleeve were also sharp claws and hairy hands, like a vicious wolf standing up.
"Don't let them escape!" In the hall, Lan Musk had no sweet voice, and at the same time as he gave the order, the four corners of the Jackpot Pavilion courtyard were shining brightly, raising a forbidden formation, isolating the inside and outside.
Afterwards, more than ten servants poured out of the hall, each holding a magic weapon and spell, and ruthlessly attacked Zhao Xiao and the others.
Zhao Huang shook out the Qingxuan pen, let the black iron tiger stop in front of him to block most of the power, and then took the fire and outlined it in the air, and immediately formed a fire talisman.
But before Zhao Huang finished his calligraphy, the wolf-headed monster held a broad-bladed long knife, flew over the black iron tiger, spun around the knife in mid-air, and rolled up a heavy knife shadow, threatening to chop the three of them into meat sauce.
With a sonorous sound, He Dangguan stepped forward and drew his sword, and the five-foot long sword pierced into the gap between the sword shadows, stabbing into it in one fell swoop, breaking the long knife attack. However, he was highly poisonous and weak in his body, and the wolf-headed monster picked up the long sword with a twist of his wrist, and wanted to take his head.
"Stand down!" Zhao Huang has finished the calligraphy at this moment, the tip of the pen is swept across, and the fire talisman is like a whip, whipping the wolf-headed monster away in one fell swoop.
With another stroke of the pen, the fire whip swept down into the open space of the courtyard, turning into a wall of fire and flames, separating the battlefield and giving the three of them a chance to breathe.
"Pranayama!" Zhao Xiao shouted at Zheng He and the others, and then the Divine Tiger True Form turned his head and yelled at the courtyard wall, and the Tiger Wei spat out the front spell and shot directly at the prohibition, resulting in a circle of ripples, unable to break through.
Zhao Xiao's heart sank, this kind of forbidden formation that trapped inward was obviously deliberately arranged, in order to deal with himself, this group of people in front of him must have been planning for a long time!
A drop of cold sweat flowed down from the corner of his forehead, Zhao Xiao's heart flashed, this time he was in danger, he did not panic and asked Lingxiao for help.
Obviously, Zheng Tunan was the key person in this assassination, and Zhao Xiao remembered his crazy attitude, as well as the strange humility before, and proposed to come to the Jackpot Pavilion during the banquet, it is estimated that he had prepared for this assassination early.
As for the intention of Zheng Tunan's move, Zhao Huang was puzzled for a while. If the Hatoe Zheng clan wants to deal with themselves, it is the best time to be in a private manor before, and they can avoid people's eyes and ears there. And the Jackpot Pavilion is in the densely populated Longzangpu, as long as Zhao Xiao and the others break through the prohibition, there is a way to escape.
"Hey! Why are you the only one? Lan Musk looked at the wall of fire in front of her, and a few spells turned into light and dissipated, without any effect, she quickly asked the wolf-headed monster: "Didn't you bring a few more people?" β
The wolf-headed monster also reacted, he looked at the courtyard walls on both sides, the tip of his nose twitched, and grinned, "Something is wrong!" β
As soon as the words fell, a large cloud of inky smoke suddenly floated up outside the Jackpot Pavilion, and neither party in the court knew why.
And the next moment, there was a sudden strong impact shaking the forbidden formation, Zhao Xiao was suddenly overjoyed, and at this moment, he didn't care which hero came to save him, and immediately urged the true form of the Divine Tiger, and issued several Tiger Mighty Spells in succession.
Zheng Siyuan next to him also barely suppressed the poison in his body, raised his hand to pinch the trick, and a plain white arrow condensed at his fingertips and shot towards the prohibition.
With such a tripartite attack inside and outside, a huge gap was torn open in the forbidden formation. Zhao Huang immediately made a decision, and he launched his own mighty force to take Zheng He and the two of them, turned over and stepped onto the black iron tiger, jumped directly into the air, passed through the forbidden gap, and fled to the outside of the Jackpot Pavilion.
"Oops!"
It was almost over in the blink of an eye, and with a low roar, the wolf-headed monster forced his way through the wall of fire, enduring the burning pain of the flames and leaping out of the forbidden gap.
However, as soon as he landed, he saw Zhao Xiao and the three of them riding the black tiger all the way wildly, and Zhao Huang was full of true qi and shouted with all his strength:
"Killβpeopleβlaβ"
The sound was very loud, and the tiles of the nearby houses trembled and fell, which immediately caused a lot of noise and screams in Longzangpu.
Lan Musk also lifted the ban at this time, and rushed out of the courtyard to the wolf-headed monster: "The matter is revealed, don't chase it!" Retreat! β
The wolf-headed monster stomped his foot fiercely: "I want to see who killed my brother!" β
After that, he ran to the alley next to the Jackpot Pavilion, and saw several warriors who also looked like wolf heads lying on the ground, and several key points on their bodies seemed to be pierced by sharp weapons, leaving ink-like stains, but there was no one nearby.
