Chapter 121: All Missing! Ghost Stories! (5k)
Morning.
Qin Huai went to the martial arts training ground as usual to gain experience.
Zhang Haoyue preached in the crowd again, and also mentioned the matter of the popular auction house this time.
Qin Huai approached the crowd and listened to the content of everyone's chat.
"Senior Brother Haoyue, are we planning to take down all three of these things from the Nine Dragon Gate?" A disciple of the Li family was full of anticipation.
If you can take down all three things, you can make the Nine Dragons Gate have an extra tattoo and a half realm.
This is a leap forward in the combat power of the Nine Dragons Gate.
"It's hard to say whether the three things can be taken down, anyway, the Bone Fixing Pill and that treasure will definitely not be let by our Nine Dragon Gate."
"As for the stone...... Let it be."
A few disciples answered below.
"Hehe, you're wrong."
Zhang Haoyue smiled and shook her head, "This time, we really plan to have all of them."
"But we don't have treasure craftsmen in Jiangcheng, those three masters who can make treasures are all in the small city below, and the orders of the three major forces have already piled up ten years later......
A few people sighed.
And the three masters no longer make Jiang Cheng and the orders are piling up.
This is the reason why Qin Huai has confidence.
The three master blacksmiths standing at the pinnacle of Lingjiang did not intend to participate in the dispute between the three major forces, and lived in a small town in the middle of nowhere, and remained neutral forever.
Enjoying the respect and protection of the three major forces is obviously the best choice.
And these three people are also very interesting, and they don't take many orders every year.
Build one piece a year, up to two, never more.
It is said that the three of them spend most of the year in Lingjiang to travel around the mountains and rivers, and there are free masters of the three major forces to escort them.
And the three major forces are grandsons every day, and there can't be a word of complaint.
The actual working time seems to be only two or three months, which can be described as extremely chic.
Qin Huai looked at Zhang Haoyue, who was full of confidence, and didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd.
I want to take all three of them.
Zhang Haoyue looked at everyone's expectant eyes and smiled, "Actually, I have already made an agreement with the Axe Bridge Master of Axe Mountain City, and I will leave tomorrow to take him to Jiulong Gate to live."
"Oh?"
The disciples were in an uproar and looked at each other.
"Why did this Axe Bridge Master suddenly change his sex?"
"I remember that in the early years, when the three masters were wooed, it was the most resistant to the Axe Bridge Master, right?"
Everyone looked at Zhang Haoyue with blank eyes.
But Zhang Haoyue smiled and shook her head.
"I'll sell it to you first."
"The secrets of the sect should not be talked about lightly."
Soon, Zhang Haoyue began to preach to separate everyone from this excitement and return to practice.
Qin Huai sat quietly in the crowd, collecting experience while thinking about the Axe Bridge Master and the Nine Dragon Gate... Or the relationship between the Zhang family.
He has been obsessed with spiritual practice for the past few months.
I don't know much about Lingjiang City, let alone the things outside Lingjiang City, the huge Lingjiang County.
If you ask him who the leader of the three major forces is, and what are the candidates for the first person of the younger generation, Qin Huai can recite it like a stream.
But the master of the axe bridge......
It's really embarrassing for Qin Huai.
….
After collecting his experience, he walked back to the Li family's compound quickly.
"Uncle, are you back so early today?"
The middle-aged man saw Qin Huai and was busy greeting him.
It's all four-room people.
and Qin Huai were very cordial, especially after knowing that Qin Huai had killed Zhang Dagen.
Looking at Qin Huai one by one is the same as looking at his own son.
"Well, is the fourth uncle at home?" Qin Huai asked again.
"Here's..."
A middle-aged man scratches his head.
"Thank you." Qin Huai clenched his fists and walked straight into the courtyard of the fourth room.
The fourth uncle, Li Zeshi, was sitting on a recliner basking in the sun.
Yesterday, after Qin Huai instructed not to fight for the Bone Pill, Li Zeshi was bored basking in the sun.
Of course, some money is also being raised privately.
After all, in addition to the three treasures, there are also a lot of other good things in the monthly auction of the Fengxing Auction House the day after tomorrow.
"Fourth Uncle."
"Uncle, why are you here?"
When Li Zeshi saw Qin Huai, the whole person immediately bounced up from the recliner.
"Uncle, this is trying to fight?"
Li Zeshi said tentatively.
Qin Huai shook his head, and then said what Zhang Haoyue said about winning over the master of the axe bridge today.
After listening to this, Li Zeshi pondered for a while.
"Oh...... I see."
"That Axe Bridge Master is old, and there was news of his death last year."
"Although it was confirmed to be a rumor, it did have a serious illness."
Li Zeshi sighed, "Rare treasures like them, rarer than the Tattoo Bone Realm. They are of high status, and by virtue of their abilities, they have accumulated countless treasures of gold and silver over the years."
"When they are still alive, they are backed by the three major forces, so they are naturally not afraid of anything."
"But if the true immortal dies, and no one inherits the identity and skill of his treasure craftsman, the wolves will come."
Qin Huai pulled a wooden chair and sat opposite Li Zeshi.
"Is this Master Axe Bridge wanting to use the few remaining years to work as a coolie for the Zhang family, in exchange for a long-term shelter and prosperity for his family?"
Qin Huai asked.
"If what Zhang Haoyue said is true, it should be so."
Li Zeshi also said, "It is also possible that Master Axe Bridge will stay in Lingjiang and not belong to any party."
"Then use the low price to try their best to create treasures for the three forces to benefit the disciples of the family. For example...... The disciples of the clan were sent to the three major forces to study and practice martial arts. It can be regarded as letting his family branch out, and it is impossible to wither no matter what."
"So Zhang Haoyue didn't dare to make up her mind, she only dared to let out some rumors."
Hearing this, Qin Huai frowned slightly.
If Master Axe Bridge does this, I'm afraid it will mess up the market.
At that time, it is impossible to say what the price of the stone will be.
There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain.
Originally, this idea was impromptu after hearing the news from the auction house.
Deal......
He went to Jiu Gou, and the experience of killing more disciples of the Sacred Heart Sect to improve the Blood Heart Venerable Law and some long qi recipes was also a choice.
It's just that the latter is a bit risky.
After all, it's not just one that is staring at itself now.
Qin Huai moved his muscles and bones, got up and said goodbye to Li Zeshi.
in the bedroom.
Qin Huai peeked into the world of dantian.
The momentum of the White Dragon unexpectedly broke through 100%, and now it is at the level of 102%.
….
And the only change after the break is that the Dragon Ball, or Dragon Egg, seems to be more vibrant.
Ten purple and white dragons snuggled up to the eggs like parents.
In the face of the provocation of the pair of blood-colored tiger wolves on the bronze earth, the attack was even more tyrannical.
"I don't know what kind of vision will appear after the tattoo."
Qin Huai couldn't notice too much abnormality, so he could only stop there.
……
Day 2.
As soon as the sky was bright, the door was knocked on by Qing'er.
"Uncle, Uncle......
Qin Huai opened his sleepy eyes dimly, quickly put on his clothes and pushed open the door.
"What's wrong?"
He looked at Qing'er with a sad expression, "Could it be that something happened to Shaoxiang?"
"Bah, what did my uncle say. Of course Mademoiselle is fine."
Qing'er looked at Qin Huai with white eyes.
"What's the matter, the Zhang family is gone?"
"It has nothing to do with our Nine Dragons Gate...... It has something to do with it."
Qing'er's anxiety was half dispelled by Qin Huai's interjection, and said, "Anyway, the three treasure masters are all missing!"
"When?"
Qin Huai's spirits perked.
"It was said to be last night, but I don't know exactly when."
"Anyway, now it's going crazy in Jiangcheng." Qing'er had an expression of eating melons, she didn't care about the life and death of the three treasure masters, she only knew that it was a big melon, and she wanted to share it with her uncle as soon as possible.
"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law out of ......"
In the compound, Li Buhu rushed in.
Seeing Qing'er standing next to him, he subconsciously shut up.
"Uncle, I'll go down first."
Qing'er left with interest.
"Brother-in-law, let's talk as we go."
Li Buhu pulled Qin Huai and walked towards the courtyard of the fourth room.
"The three treasure masters are all missing, and the entire villa is empty."
"The expert guards secretly sent by the three major forces were slaughtered overnight."
Li Buhu's news is more specific than the rumors Qing'er heard.
"So serious?"
Qin Huai frowned, "Do you know who did it?"
Li Buhu shook his head, "If you know who did it, then you don't need to be so nervous."
The key problem is that now that the three masters have disappeared mysteriously, the three major forces still don't know who did it.
Walk into the courtyard of the four rooms.
Qin Huai greeted Li Zeshi, who sighed, "Now the situation is really the same every day."
Li Zeshi went straight to the point, "The three masters are already masters of the Quasi-Tattoo Bone Realm, and the men and horses that the three major forces each send to guard are also led by the Nine Refining Martial Artists."
"A mountain villa is probably two Nine Refining Martial Artists, and the sum of these forces is not something that ordinary people can deal with."
"Could it be the Sacred Heart?" Qin Huai asked.
He thought about it, in addition to the three major forces, the entire Lingjiang also had the strength and the courage to do this kind of thing.
He kidnapped all the three masters in one go, and killed all the people sent by the three major forces.
These are the three mountains that openly provoke Lingjiang.
Serious.
Li Zeshi hesitated for a moment, "Sacred Heart Sect...... It's likely, but it's unlikely."
"Their masters are all being watched by our people, and it is very difficult to go to the cities quietly."
….
"That ......"
Qin Huai boldly guessed, "Could it be that a force has appeared in the Jiangdi Realm that can be on par with the three major forces?"
"It's hard to say."
Li Zeshi sighed, "Now the eldest brother and the Zhang family are confused."
"I don't know what the other party means by doing this."
"But one thing is certain, tomorrow at the Fengxing Auction House, the Zhang family, the county guard mansion, and the bipolar gate will all bleed heavily."
Li Zeshi smiled bitterly, "This is also good news."
The three treasure masters are gone, and Ling Jiang's treasure is one less than one.
As the saying goes, scarcity is expensive.
Tomorrow's treasure will inevitably be sold at a sky-high price.
Qin Huai heard the news with mixed feelings.
The joy is that as soon as the three treasure masters disappeared, they were not only the only seedlings of Lingjiang City, but also the only seedlings of the entire Lingjiang County.
The worry is that in addition to the Sacred Heart Sect, there is another mysterious force that intervenes, making the already turbulent Ling Jiang more and more turbulent.
In today's situation, there is a smell of impending wind and rain.
"We can't afford it anyway, so let's just watch it with peace of mind
done."
Li Buhu smiled without any pressure.
"I won't go tomorrow, while the attention of the three major forces is all on the treasure master and the auction house, I will go to find someone."
Qin Huai said.
He had told Li Zewu and Li Zeshi about this before.
Now that the situation is becoming more and more turbulent, Qin Huai is even more worried about Master and Luo Ya.
"Uncle Lao took advantage of the past two days to send people around to inquire, if there is any news, you must tell me as soon as possible."
Qin Huai advised.
Now that he has the second and fourth rooms in his hands to transfer, his plan to find people is naturally quietly unfolding in secret.
"Don't worry, it's just that Jiang County is so big, it's not easy to find someone."
Li Zeshi said slowly, "After all, according to my uncle's words, the Zhang family and the county guard government were looking for them before, and their vigilance would inevitably be very high. It's not easy to show up."
"Well, I know, just do your best."
Qin Huai nodded.
Then I went to the second room and instructed the side.
After that, he went back to the courtyard and put on a black hat that he had prepared when he came back yesterday.
Immediately from the winding to the back mountain.
From the mountain behind the Jiulong Gate, I went around a big circle and went out of Lingjiang City.
He changed into a black robe in the wilderness and covered it.
Turn around and re-enter the city.
Qin Huai's outfit is not uncommon in the city, especially in Lingjiang City in the past two days.
Countless people want to watch the excitement and witness the ownership of the Bone Fixing Pill and the treasure.
Of course, there are also many bold and ill-intentioned people who want to make money and kill people.
There may also be the real culprits behind the robbery of the three treasure masters, who went into the city to inquire about the news and layout.
in a word
At this time, Lingjiangcheng was mixed with fish and dragons, and the dark tide was turbulent.
In front of Wanli Street.
It has long been a long queue of people.
From the streets to the alleys, and even to the slums.
It can be seen that the popularity is hot.
Even the restaurants and teahouses on Wanli Street are becoming more and more overcrowded.
The already crowded Wanli Street is even more difficult to move on at the moment.
Qin Huai watched the flow of people and shook his wrist slightly.
….
I saw a burst of powder shot out.
Soon......
The smiles on the faces of the pedestrians, who were still full of smiles, suddenly stopped, and some people folded their legs slightly, and their eyes began to look around.
Qin Huai's fingers flicked again.
"Gollum... Gollum ......"
The pedestrians around him began to make excuses and scurried towards the restaurant or teahouse.
The road opened up in an instant.
Qin Huai concocted the same method and walked smoothly to the door of the Fengxing Auction House.
"This lord, you want to ......."
The enthusiastic Xiao Er walked up to Qin Huai with a respectful and humble expression.
"Get a card, book a private room."
Qin Huai said.
"Master, you can also see, now our auction house has long been overcrowded. The number of private rooms is limited, but the lobby below ......."
Qin Huai took out a silver ticket of one hundred taels and stuffed it into the small second-hand.
"The location of the lobby is a bit noisy, but there are seats on the second floor, and there are ...... over there."
Qin Huai sold another hundred taels.
"Look at my brain, room C No. 7 is still free, keep it for you!" Xiao Er blurted out.
Then he stuffed Qin Huai with a sign, and the room number was impressive on it.
"Early tomorrow morning, you will come with this sign, and someone will naturally show you the way."
"There have been a lot of people in the past two days, if there is anything that is not well taken care of, please Haihan."
Qin Huai nodded.
turned around and left, and found an inn to stay in.
Although there are many people, Qin Huai is not bad for money, and he is the same as one hundred and two taels
Banknotes open the way, unimpeded.
The night passed quietly.
Qin Huai also got up early to eat breakfast, and many people in the inn sat around.
Talking about the murder of the three treasure masters.
Qin Huai was bored, so he sat at the side table and ate breakfast while listening to them brag.
"That night, the masters of the three major forces came out together and fought with the masked man in the mountains and forests."
"The Quartet is all a top master, and two of them are still in the Seven Refining Great Blood Refining Realm, relying on the numerical advantage to suppress the man in black."
"A stab is going to kill the man in black, and guess what?"
The bearded man slammed the table.
Everyone watched in amazement and came closer.
"I've been talking for so long, I'm getting a little thirsty." The bearded man smashes it, smashes it, and smashes it.
"Cut~"
One of them waved his hand in disappointment, wanted to get up and sat down again, "Boss, my daughter of twenty years is red!"
"Okay~!"
The pot-bellied proprietress responded charmingly, making the man's body tremble.
Waiting for the good wine to be served, the bearded man poured a sip of it.
Then he continued, "Guess what, the man in black suddenly had a white armor on his body, blocking a dozen swords in front of him."
"The white armor is different, the armor is full of fluff and flesh, like leather armor, but the knife can see the sparks."
"Then it was even more terrifying. The armor of the man in black began to stretch out his hands and feet to wrap the man in black."
"In an instant, the man in black seemed to have risen by a few inches, and the whole person was as terrifying as a demon."
"The power is also great, and the momentum is enough, and in an instant, it will occupy the reversal and kill the Quartet~"
….
The bearded man spoke with a lot of voice and color.
But a few people around couldn't help but cut off, "You beard, the more you talk about it, the more outrageous it becomes."
"What kind of stomach is flesh and fluff? Forget it, what kind of story is it to stretch out your hands and feet and become demons?"
"Bring the wine!"
The man who bought the wine just now was also angry, so he took the wine jug back and poured two sips himself.
"I'm telling the truth!"
The bearded man looked aggrieved.
"The third son of my seventh uncle and grandfather, and the younger brother of his daughter-in-law, are the apprentices of Axe Bridge Villa! I happened to go down the mountain to pick up goods that day, and I saw it with my own eyes when I returned to the mountain!"
"Why don't you say that your wife and grandfather returned from the underworld, saw it with your own eyes, and then told you in a dream?"
"That's it, that's kind of a tie to your story~"
"Hahaha...... It's all ghost stories."
Qin Huai, who was at the next table, listened to what Dahan said, and he didn't feel very credible.
He himself is a treasure-level blacksmith, and it is completely useless to know what to build a armor full of face and flesh. It will also corrode the nail stomach and damage its firmness and shorten its service life.
As for turning into a demon, it's even more ridiculous.
It's better to say that the Sacred Heart teaches cannibalism.
After Qin Huai finished eating breakfast, he got up and walked straight into the diagonal Fengxing Auction House.
"A distinguished guest in Room No. 7~!"
Xiao Er shouted at the top of his voice, and then two girls with good figures wearing pure white withered cheongsams led Qin Huai upstairs.
Sword Immortals don't eat green onions
