Chapter 43: The Silver Key
Hearing this, the expression on Monk Zhiyuan's face suddenly froze.
"Huh? Guang'er, what's going on? β
He was clearly angry, and his voice was like thunder, shocking.
The bald monk was not afraid of death, and replied directly:
"What you asked me to find, I searched around the city, and only found it on the nun. What can I do. β
It turned out that this is how he completed this task.
Chen Meng buried his head and laughed as quietly as he could.
"You!"
Seeing that he was so shameless, Jingci was also furious in his heart, and he was about to take his life with a sword, but was stopped by the great monk waving his hand.
"Mrs. Shi, don't worry, what's going on? There is no head or tail, and the great monk is not easy to judge. β
When Jingci heard this, he only said that Zhiyuan was favoring his own apprentice, and his anger became even worse, and he shouted:
"Great monk, you are also a Buddhist, I didn't expect to be able to believe that Huo Xiu's nonsense, and let the disciples snatch the silver keys of others. Don't you like to do it! β
Huo Xiu's nonsense? Silver key?
Chen Meng didn't know what they meant, but he couldn't ask out loud at this time, so he had to continue listening.
Zhiyuan Dao:
"The Sprinkle family just let him go out of the city to look for it, when did he let him rob people?"
Jingci still sneered:
"So, did you really listen to Huo Xiu's order and send someone to collect the silver key?"
Zhi Yuan only frowned when he heard this, and explained helplessly:
"What do you mean by 'listen to that Hoxiu's order', why is it so ugly?
The Sprinkle family just thought that since we were invited to participate in the conference held by others, we had to listen to the rules of others.
People said that in this martial arts conference, the disciple who gets the most silver keys wins.
The Sprinkle family casually sent a few people to collect and collect, although it was useless to win with all their might, but it could be regarded as cooperating with others.
And Mrs. Shi, you said it so nicely, but don't your disciples also have silver keys?
What is the reason to blame my great monk? β
Listening to what he meant, it seems that Huo Xiu has set a rule for the martial arts conference this time.
In the past few days, the disciples of various sects have been asked to search for an object called a "silver key" outside the city.
In the end, when the conference is held, whichever sect gets the most silver keys wins.
His method is not poisonous.
It seems to be the eyesight and fortune of the disciples of the school.
But in fact, in the end, it is likely to evolve into a life-and-death battle between the disciples of various sects.
It's no wonder that Mrs. Pure Compassion is so resistant to this rule.
At this time, Shitai listened to the great monk talk about the Tao, and he was a little speechless for a while.
She did send her disciples to find the "Silver Key".
But not to win in the conference.
I was afraid that when the conference was held, there would be no key in my own sect, which would humiliate the reputation of the Emei faction.
Therefore, the whole faction only took such a handful.
Now the only one has been snatched by the bald monk.
How could she give up?
jingci says:
"Then what should you do if your disciple forcibly snatched it?"
The great monk immediately said:
"Guang'er's matter, when I return to the sect, I will handle it, so this master doesn't have to worry."
He wasn't lying either.
Although Monk Zhiyuan has some minor problems, he has always been clear about the major rights and wrongs.
The bald monk is naturally to be punished, but not now.
Jing Ci also knew what he was like, so he no longer dwelled on him, but said:
"That's good! You tell your disciple to give me back the key, and the poor nun will not pursue other matters. β
Zhiyuan listened, but shook his head again and again:
"That's not going to work. Although I made a mistake in vain, he got the things after all. If I give it back to you, will it be in vain for all his hard work? β
Seeing that he was still protecting the calf, Jingci was furious for a moment, and he was about to step forward to fight with him with his sword:
"Then you and I will fight, and whoever is still alive will take the key!"
Seeing her like this, Zhi Yuan naturally couldn't fight her, so he hurriedly waved his palm, and said while resisting Shi Tai's sword moves:
"Don't, don't, don't. Mrs. Shi, there is a fair way for the Sprinkle family. β
Shi Tai kept moving the sword in his hand, and asked:
"What's the solution?"
Zhiyuan Dao:
"Wait a minute, Huo Xiu will come to the Drunken Immortal Building to visit the heads of the families. The silver key we stole was not counted, and we asked him if it was. β
The sword move in Shi Tai's hand became more and more powerful, and he asked:
"Huo Xiu came up with such a poisonous plan, didn't he just want my people to kill each other? Are you stupid to be a poor nun? Can he say no-count? β
The great monk saw that her sword moves suddenly became extremely vicious, and he knew that he was only afraid of defeat if he continued to defend like this, so he had to use his skills in the dantian, and opened his mouth and roared.
Hmph β
This roar was like thunder in the nine heavens, stirring up gusts of wind in the building.
This trick is called King Kong Lion's Roar, which is a profound internal kung fu in Shaolin Temple.
Zhiyuan's internal force is pure, and such a devastating move can actually control the Shi Tai who only shocked the front of him.
The juniors watching the battle in the guest room were not injured in the slightest.
It's just that my ears hurt a little.
The great monk flicked away Shitai, and then asked:
"Could it be that if you and I fight to lose both, aren't we falling for Huo Xiu's poisonous scheme? You teacher, how can you be so straightforward! β
Jingci's martial arts were not as good as Zhiyuan, and after hearing this at this time, he finally came to his senses.
She took a few steps back, steadied herself, and then glared at the holy monk viciously, and said:
"Then it's up to you, find Huo Xiu to set a rule. But! β
"But what?"
"But the key can no longer be left in the hands of your apprentice."
Halfway through her words, Jing Ci suddenly turned her head to look at Chen Meng.
"This Chen Shizhu is an outsider and has nothing to do with this matter. You ask your apprentice to give him the things to keep first! β
If Zhi Yuan refuses again, it will be a little uninteresting.
He hurriedly nodded:
"Okay, then it's up to you. Light! Give the key to Lord Chen. β
In this way, Chen Meng took the silver key handed by the holy monk in a daze.
γSilver Keyγ
[Description: Quest item.] A key made of sterling silver, so exquisitely crafted, I don't know what it can be used for. γ
This key is about five inches long, and it is hidden in the corners outside the capital, so it must be difficult to find.
Chen Meng looked at the items in his hand and felt a little crying and laughing.
Jingci then asked:
"Then when is Huo Xiu coming?"
Zhiyuan Dao:
"He said he would come in the morning for dinner, and now he's almost there."
Jingci's tone is still impulsive:
"Then come with me downstairs and wait!"
Chen Meng didn't know if she didn't include herself in what she said, so he followed everyone out of the guest room and walked to the lobby on the first floor.
Huo Xiu didn't know when he would come, so everyone found a bench to sit on.
No one was willing to speak, and the atmosphere was slightly awkward in an instant.
Chen Meng heard the system prompt ring in his head again.
[The host has been detected to be within range of an unknown replica.] γ
[The simulated dungeon system can help the host simulate the strategy of other dungeons once.] γ
[The current host has 1 simulation point, do you want to simulate the strategy?] γ
It seems that this is also within the scope of that copy.
When Chen Meng first arrived in the capital, he used a little simulation point, which would not be restored until midnight.
Idle is idle anyway, let's start simulating.
[You entered the dungeon and found a fork in the road ahead, what is your choice?] γ
[1. Go to the left.] γ
[2. Go to the right.] γ
[3. Go forward.] γ
I chose to go forward before, and I encountered a boss that I couldn't beat.
Chen Meng tried in a different direction this time.
You chose to go left. After walking about a hundred steps, you find a ruined temple at the end of the road. γ
[Do you want to enter the ruined temple? γ
It's said that it's at the end of the road, how can you not go in.
You entered the ruined temple and found a hidden door. γ
[The number of "Silver Key" items detected in the host's backpack is: 1]
[Do you want to consume a silver key to open the hidden door?] γ
