Chapter 80: The Magical Conch Beads
After Ning Heku's figure disappeared from the high wall, a person flashed out of the darkness, it was Ah Hai. He looked up in the direction where Ning Heku had disappeared, his expression still calm and calm. The difference is that there is a faint hint of heaviness and alertness in the calmness.
He turned, found a side door in the backyard, and gently pushed the door in.
At this moment, it is the time of the lamp, and it is also the time of dinner, the house is brightly lit, and the people are shuttling back and forth, waiting for the masters to have dinner.
It seems very unwise to choose this lively moment to come in and investigate, and there is a danger of being discovered at any time.
But he is a master of art and bold, so he wants to choose this moment. Because man is iron, rice is steel, and whoever spares you must eat, drink, and Lazar.
Therefore, looking for someone at this time is the best way to find someone.
He was extremely familiar with the general structure of this type of large house: the front yard, the main house, the four wings in the south, east and west, and the small courtyard of the inner house in the back. After that, there is generally the residence of the people below. With his eyes closed, he could easily find his master's place of living and dining.
Without him! Only skillful!
In the past, he had studied for a while the structural drawings of the construction of such deep mansions.
One is for their own safety, and the other is to buy time so that people don't get away. In this way, you can come and go freely, and you can move in and out freely.
This is the basic consciousness that a swordcatcher should have.
He went to the brightly lit place, and fell down on the eaves, and then hung the golden hook upside down, and looked into the house.
Then, seeing the figure flashing away, the lights in the mansion gradually went out, the crowd gradually subsided, he went up and down again, and the rabbit landed in the mansion and investigated it carefully, until the second watch.
Meanwhile.
In the inn, Cui Bai gently pushed the door in, and Li Wanyan, who was resting at the desk, was suddenly startled, but did not look back, only whispered, "Cui Bai, you are back, have you heard anything?" ”
"Girl, Haiyang County, very ordinary. The only, unusual, place is that there are three jewels, all of which are at a high price, and they are acquired, conch beads, and a pearl is worth a thousand gold. Near the sea, fishermen, there are few fishers, and there are ~ many conch fishers. Although Cui Bai still stuttered, he was concise and logical.
"Conch beads?" Li Wanyan got up suddenly, was startled, and showed joy behind her, her lips curled slightly, and she said to herself, "That's true." It seems that what the earth immortal said is true. ”
Seeing that Cuibai's eyes were full of doubts, Li Wanyan continued: "Everyone in the world knows that pearl powder can be used in medicine to cure diseases, but they don't know that this conch bead is also a rare medicine. It's just that conch beads are scarce and rare in the world, so there are very few people who know that they can be used in medicine.
Also, in the past ten years, the five evils have been on the escape, but they have never given up the opportunity to find a cure for their stubborn diseases. Now it seems that the poisonous evil has traveled thousands of miles to the edge of the South China Sea regardless of his serious injuries, in order to find his companions and come for the conch beads. Sure enough, following the doctor, and the doctor followed the poison, there will be unexpected surprises and gains. ”
Cui Bai was silent for a while, in front of his master, he would never be submissive, he would only say bluntly, "Girl, you want, be careful!" If so, they know about it, and your intentions ......"
Li Wanyan interrupted him calmly and said easily: "Don't worry, it's impossible for them to know." Do you think I'm here for the sake of the doctor? ”
"Girl, look like a god! Ghost Grass ......" Cui Bai suddenly raised his thumb innocently, slightly expressing the admiration in his heart.
Li Wanyan smiled lightly and said softly: "It's not that I expected things like a god, it's just that the earth immortal told me where the cover door of the Moluo Five Evils is, so I can naturally take a certain advantage." Now, as long as we continue to follow the doctors, they are looking for the five evils, and we will find medicine, and we will naturally be able to get twice the result with half the effort. ”
Her eyes were calm and resolute, and she paused and said: "Tell Qingzhu and them to continue to follow, don't show up, at the critical moment, I have another errand to order." Well, you're tired too, go and rest, you have business to do tomorrow. ”
The next day, when the morning sun was slightly dewed.
"Xiao Ku, hurry up, I know why the poisonous demon is coming to Haiyang City." Ning Heku was still asleep, and was woken up by Shen Wuwu's chatter in his ear.
Last night, after he came out of Jingfu, he went to Huang Langzhong's house again. In the dead of night, the whole house was sleeping peacefully. He took a closer look, and there was neither anything suspicious nor any suspicious person, probably matching what Ah Hai said.
When he was done with all this, it was almost the third watch when he returned to the inn, and then he fell asleep near the fourth watch.
However, he had just slept for a while, and was sleeping sweetly, when he was woken up, he couldn't open his eyes at all, and only reluctantly coped with two "uh-huh" sounds in his throat, turned over and continued to sleep again.
Seeing him like this, Shen Wuwu simply raised the volume next to his ear and continued to chatter and disturb, "Last night, I went out for a walk and inquired casually, this Haiyang County is very ordinary, the only thing that is unusual is that the three jewelry stores on the street all buy conch beads at a high price, and one pearl is worth a thousand gold. The fishermen near the sea catch less fish and catch more conchs, you say it's not unusual, right? ”
He said the same thing as Cypter, except that he didn't stutter and spoke quickly.
Seeing that Ning Heku still didn't react, he smiled slyly and made some footsteps on the ground with his feet, "If you don't get up again, I'll go find a basin of cold water to wait for you to freshen up." ”
"Can't I get up, can't I get up? I'm so scared of you! Although Ning Heku is half-asleep, he is still afraid that Shen Wuwu will groom himself, but he is the master who does what he says.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw that Shen Wuwu was still smiling strangely in front of him, so he began to stroke his forehead and moan, "Old Wu, can you stop making trouble, I am a mortal body, mortals need enough sleep to be disease-free, pain-free, and ......-free."
"Open your mouth and shut your mouth You are a mortal, are you? I don't think you're a person, you can sleep better than that pig, you've been sleeping for seven or eight hours, haven't you slept enough? Shen's senseless chatter turned into impatient complaining and hurting others and himself.
Ning Heku's eyes were half-squinted, he was still yawning, his neck seemed to be broken, his head was drooping all the time, and he didn't forget the grievances in his mouth and retorted confidently: "What's so strange about this, in our line of work, there are times when we don't sleep for three days and three nights, and when we don't wake up after sleeping for three days and three nights, this is all very normal, you know?" ”
Shen Wusense: "...... Okay, as long as you are reasonable, as long as you can speak the truth, confuse right and wrong. Have you slept enough now? Should we go out and look for the whereabouts of the poison? Also, this Ruoxue is also the same, bringing us here, how come we can't determine the specific location of the poison as soon as we enter the city? ”
It's not enough to talk about why hard, not even letting go of an eagle, it's really a senseless style.
Ning He could only rub his dry and sore eyes, crying and laughing, "Ruoxue is just an eagle, not a god!" ”
Shen thought about it for a while, and suddenly changed his tone, flattering and flattering: "I understand, you can't count on an eagle, but I can count on you, can't I?" Dajing's first knife officer, with a pair of tendons and broken bones yin and yang fingers, an elephant invisible mercy sword, a long knot of life and death, on behalf of the knife to arrest criminals, in exchange for money, out of Dali, never left behind. So, count on you, yes. ”
Shen is useless like flattery like a book, there is no sincerity to speak of, and it is very stiff and dry.
Some are just used and instigated, and some are agitated, and fools can hear it.
Ning He could only cry and laugh, sighing: "Oops! You don't even make a sycophant sincerely, and it's really a doctor who is useless. Why don't you just say simply, you need me, maybe I'll be more positive? ”
Shen Wuwu was exposed by him, and he became angry, and said sharply: "Do you still want to arrest the five evils?" Do you want a bounty? ”
Ning Heku's eyes suddenly widened, his kindness was like a stream, and his mouth was like a river, "That's right!" To find the right direction, hit the snake and hit the seven inches, the way of thinking determines success or failure, and money makes people refreshed. ”
Shen looked at him coldly and coined a new term for him: "Money belly heart." ”
Ning He was puzzled: "What do you mean by this?" ”
Shen Wuxian rolled his eyes, "You're so smart, you can't think for yourself." ”
Ning He pouted bitterly, "Troublesome, too lazy to think." Then he finally got down to business, "By the way, what did you just say?" ”
He asked knowingly, Shen Wuwei naturally didn't know, so he explained to him sincerely and perfectly:
"Conch beads, similar to pearls and other jewelry, but not produced by river mussels, but from the belly of a conch called phoenix snail in the sea, which is very scarce and rare, so it is very precious and rare. A small one can be worth a thousand gold. ”
"What do you mean?" Ning He scratched his head and asked knowingly again.
"What do you mean? Looks like you haven't woken up yet. That's a conch bead! A small bead worth a thousand gold? Did you hear me clearly? "Shen Wuwu is starting to get impatient.
Ning He was still calm and light, pretending not to know why, and continued to tease him, "And then?" ”
Shen Wuxian was so anxious that he burst out a series of words: "What? Do you kid really don't understand or fake don't understand, poison came all the way to this remote place, what did he come for, naturally he was his accomplice. And why did his accomplices hide here, they didn't like the sea breeze and coolness here, right? Have you forgotten the true purpose of the poison hidden in Feisha Village? ”
Naturally, it is impossible for him to forget it, not to mention that he has been running all night last night for this matter.
He said without being salty: "Oh! Sounds like a lot of sense. But why did he come for this conch bead? Is it just because it's rare and worth a thousand dollars? ”
Shen Wuwu couldn't bear it anymore and punched him, endured his anger and said patiently: "At first, I couldn't figure it out, but I thought about it all night last night, and suddenly I remembered my master Bolai. ”
"......," Ning was surprised, "and what does it matter to your master?" ”
Shen sat down without a moment, and said mysteriously and cautiously: "My master told me that in this world, his medical skills are extraordinary, and he has reached the pinnacle, and there is almost no one to compare. ”
"In other words, there are people who are much stronger than your master, right?" In Ning's words, Shen Wuwu had to nod and admit.
He also said: "My master's medical skills are excellent, he can bypass the class, treat countless stubborn diseases and strange diseases, and the people of the rivers and lakes send the beautiful name 'Crane Doctor'." However, the medical road is complicated, the road is simple, and everything changes from its origin. To be a doctor, you must first have a benevolent heart to heal and save people.
And my master uncle, he is a sword, he likes to delve into some sideways, evil medical skills, and in order to cure one person by unscrupulous means, but also disregard the lives of others, seriously violating the original intention of being a doctor. Therefore, he was soon driven out of the division by his uncle. ”
