Chapter 186, Dragon Ball Island (3)
Chapter 186, Dragon Ball Island (3)
Shen Jiayun and Duan Wutian came over to talk to Qingshi, and the two of them were extremely excited to reunite with Qingshi after a long absence, but they ignored Xiang An and left him aside.
Qingshi quickly learned about the experience of Duan Shen and the others. It turned out that near the end of last year, Qin Yuantai, the head of the Internal Guard Mansion, sent an envoy to the first-class guard Xiang An, the second-class guard Duan Wutian and the third-class guard Shen Jiayun to go to the East China Sea on a business trip.
So, Xiang An took them to Guo Zheng of the East China Sea Kingdom first, and soon took them to this rich island, after arriving on the island, Xiang An unexpectedly restrained the meridians of Duan Shen and the others, and then took away all their spiritual weapons, leaving only a storage ring containing a few weapons and a little food.
Xiang An said that he was going to carry out a mission, and if he succeeded, he would naturally come and release them, and the two of them were bargaining chips to prevent the failure of the mission.
Duan Wutian and Shen Jiayun have been locked up for several months, and they have been trying to find a way to leave, but above the vast sea, they don't have any means of transportation, how can they leave.
Later, Shen Jiayun said that he could find a way to destroy the hidden array on the island, so that the island might be discovered, and if someone came to check it out, they might have a chance to leave.
The two tried their best to destroy the magic circle, but they couldn't start at all, until half a month ago, Shen Jiayun inadvertently found a flaw in the magic circle. It was a formation that had aged for a long time, revealing an energy source device by the sea.
Duan Shen and the others discovered that place, so they wreaked havoc, they went to destroy it every day when they had nothing to do, and a few days ago, they finally made the entire hidden array unstable.
Yesterday, these natives came to the island, Duan Shen and the two stepped forward to greet them, originally wanting to ask for help from these natives, but they were attacked for no reason, and they were endlessly chased and killed, if it wasn't for Qingshi to arrive, I'm afraid Duan Shen and the two would soon be captured or killed.
The three of them talked for a while, and Qingshi also roughly told Xiang An about the situation of killing him, both of them were furious, chasing Xiang An and about to beat him again, Xiang An shouted while fleeing in embarrassment: "Brother Qingshi, you promised me, if they are safe, they won't kill me!" Don't let them chase you. ”
"I won't kill you!" Qingshi said lightly, "I also promise that they won't beat you to death!" ”
"Hey!" Xiang An had no choice but to shout to Duan Shen and the others, "Don't think I'm afraid of you, I'm going to fight back if I come again!" "In fact, he hasn't fully recovered yet, and Duan Wutian alone can't beat him.
"If you dare to hit both of them, I'll beat you!" Qingshi still said lightly.
"Is that interesting?" Xiang An shouted, "The so-called gentleman doesn't move..... Ah! ”
Xiang An's martial arts cultivation was originally much higher than Duan Shen and the others, but he didn't dare to fight back because his true qi had not recovered, and he was soon forced into a corner, but he didn't know that there was a trap that Shen Jiayun had spent several months working on to set up for him, Xiang An stepped on the trap, and immediately his body stiffened and couldn't move, Duan Wutian rushed up with an old punch, and finally threw him out of the trap, Shen Jiayun rushed up and punched him in front of him......
"Alas!" Xiang An sat on the ground and wiped his nosebleed, sighed and said, "Thank you to the two brothers Duan and Xiao Shen, I am happy in my heart!" You beat me up like this, and I feel a lot less guilty. Not only did you not beat me to death, but you didn't even break a single bone, oh, except for the nose, but that's it, which shows that the two brothers still have feelings for me! By the way, why the fuck do you like to punch people in the nose? ......”
Qingshi Duan Wutian and Shen Jiayun looked at Xiang An's bloated pig head and rotten nose, and couldn't help laughing together. Qingshi took out a few healing pills and threw them to Xiang An, and then took out the storage spirit weapon he had collected from Xiang An and gave them to Duan Wutian and Shen Jiayun, asking the two of them to take back their belongings.
Shen Jiayun asked: "Brother Qingshi, why did Xiang An, this bastard, kill you, someone must have instructed him, right?" ”
Duan Wutian said; "I guess it's the remnants of the Jiang family, right?"
Qingshi shook his head and said, "Let's not talk about this problem for now, let's think about what to do next." Hey, Xiang Daying, what are you going to do in the future? ”
"Did I say the math?" Xiang An said angrily, "Anyway, it's all in your hands, and it's not up to you to decide what to do." ”
Qingshi smiled slightly and said: "I originally wanted to leave you on this island and let you suffer for yourself, but now that this island is going to be returned to the Tanlong Clan, I really don't know what to do with you for a while." ”
"Then what are you forcing me to give them back the island?" Xiang Andao.
"Brother Xiang, I shouldn't be blamed for this," Qingshi said, "The island has been exposed, is it still possible for you to keep it?" ”
"Ahh Xiang An was stunned for a moment, sighed and said, "That's the same." ”
"Why don't we find another lonely island and put you on to be the owner." Qingshi said with a smile.
"Alas!" Xiang An sighed and said sincerely, "Brother Qingshi, I'm sorry for you!" But I really can't help it! Can't you really forgive me? Do you have to let me die alone on a desert island in the sea? ”
"Okay! I forgive you. Qingshi said lightly, "You can decide for yourself." I just asked you what you plan to do in the future, you asked me to say it, and you don't agree with what I said! ”
"Really?" Xiang An asked in surprise, "Do you really plan to let me go and stop pursuing it?" ”
"Don't pretend to be so surprised, okay?" Qingshi said, "You already knew I wasn't going to kill you, did you? At the end of the day, you're just someone else's tool, and I think you're really unwilling to take on this thankless chore, but you can't help yourself, and you're actually quite pitiful. ”
Xiang An put away the cynicism on his face and didn't speak for a long time.
For a moment, all four of them fell silent.
After a while, Qingshi spoke: "Brother Xiang, since you don't want to talk about your future plans now, how about we talk about Longquan and Dragon Ball?" ”
"Hey, hey!" Xiang An smiled and said, "I know I can't hide it from you!" Anyway, this island can't be saved anyway, so I'll just tell this secret, we still have three days, maybe we can really find the Dragon Balls. ”
Duan Wutian and Shen Jiayun also became interested, and came over together, Duan Wutian touched his big bald head and said, "What is Dragon Ball?" Is it a treasure that can become an immortal if you eat it? ”
"Ignorance!" Xiang An said disdainfully, "Dragon Balls are actually spirit crystals!" ”
"The best spirit stone?" Duan Wutian rubbed his hands and smiled: "Good thing! Where is it? Let's do it. ”
"It shouldn't be a top-grade spirit stone," Xiang An shook his head and said, "I think it should be more precious than a top-grade spirit stone." ”
"Brother Qingshi must know!" Shen Jiayun looked at Qingshi with admiration.
Qingshi really knows, and except for Qingshi, I'm afraid there are really few people in this world who know.
"The Dragon Ball is the Spirit Crystal," Qingshi said, "but the Spirit Crystal is not the best spirit stone, the Spirit Crystal is more refined than the best spirit stone, the energy storage is huge, and it has more wonderful uses." The comparison between the top-grade spirit stone and the spirit crystal is like the comparison between the low-grade spirit stone and the high-grade spirit stone, which is countless times worse. ”
Hiss......
The other three involuntarily gasped.
Qingshi continued, "Spirit crystals are only produced on the sea, and the quantity is very small. It has been difficult to see spirit crystals on the continent for thousands of years, so I slowly called the best spirit stones spirit crystals. ”
Qingshi knew that the spirit crystal was also learned from Yunlu, and the spirit crystal in Yunlu was piled up like a small mountain, but if Qingshi wanted it, he needed to exchange it for rewards above the ground level, and Qingshi naturally would not choose it.
Chun Niang They gave thousands of top-grade spirit stones to Qingshi, but there was not one spirit crystal, but in fact, there were one hundred and eight bluestones, because the energy source used by his prize, the Mixed Yuan Array Banner, was a spirit crystal, and each array flag had a spirit crystal embedded in it.
"Is there really any hidden dragon spring on this island?" Shen Jiayun asked, "Is there really a spirit crystal in the spring?" ”
"Actually, I don't know very well," Xiang An said, "The reason why I was able to get this island and know some of its secrets is also a coincidence. During the previous dynasties, this island was only responsible for paying attention to the intelligence of the countries in the Seven Seas, and quietly sent people to the sea countries to get some seafood resources. I was sent on business for three years, which was a qualification that allowed me to be promoted to the rank of second class guard. ”
"Later, when I was promoted, I helped the first-class guard Lao Huang manage this island, and I once looked through the ancient files out of boredom, and accidentally discovered that this island was first taken because it was able to produce Dragon Balls."
"After Longzhu Island was captured by the Jiang family, it was renamed Fujia Island in order to hide people's eyes, and the island underwent large-scale renovation with an astonishing cost. Just shielding it from the invisible cost a lot of manpower and material resources. This shows the preciousness of Dragon Ball. ”
"However, it took a long time for the Jiang clan to find the Dragon Ball, and in the end they captured the indigenous patriarchs and elders of the Dragon Islands and tortured them, and the biggest gain was only one clue, saying that the Dragon Ball was produced in the Dragon Spring. However, this island is so big, there are only two springs in total, and they are still the same source, and there is no dragon spring that can produce dragon balls. ”
Later, Jiang slowly gave up, believing that the Dragon Balls were nothing more than myths and legends of indigenous barbarians. Slowly, the status of this island was reduced, and before the fall of the Jiang clan, there were generally only five permanent officers and soldiers who were on duty every three years, and the legend of Dragon Ball was long unknown. ”
"I accidentally discovered that Fujia Island was originally the Dragon Ball Island, and it is likely that there will be a secret of the Dragon Ball, so I took advantage of the destruction of the Jiang clan and destroyed all the information about this island, and then turned it into my private property."
"It's a pity that I've only been here once since then, and I've been here for less than a month, and I haven't found any clues to the Dragon Balls at all. However, today's words of the wall are in line with the records of the ancient scrolls. ”
"Not bad!" Qingshi said, "And you just ignored a question, the ancient scroll you read says Dragon Spring, so you keep talking about Dragon Spring, and I remember clearly that Elder Wall just now said 'Hidden Dragon Spring'. ”
"It's just that the name is different, in fact, it should be ......" Xiang An suddenly stopped in the middle of speaking, and turned his head to look at Qingshi, "You mean that this hidden word has a mystery?" ”
"Yes!" Qingshi said, "This spring is hidden, so no matter how Jiang finds it, we can't find it, if we want to get this opportunity, we must guess the specific meaning of the word 'hidden'." ”
"Maybe it's just a legend, but is there really a Dragon Ball?" Duan Wutian touched his bald head and said, "The Jiang clan has been controlling this island for so long and can't find it, I don't think it's true!" ”
"I think most of them," Shen Jiayun said, "The scale of the magic circle on this island is so large, if it is only for the purpose of spying on some less important information and collecting some seafood, where do you need such a big hand." ”
Shen Jiayun is also a formation mage, his views are similar to those of Qingshi Xiang An, and it can be judged from the scale of the magic circle on the island that most of the islands have big secrets.
"How do you find that?" Duan Wutian said, "The Jiang clan has been looking for thousands of years and hasn't found it, we only have three days, can we do it?" ”
"Guessing the secret is the same as cultivating enlightenment," Qingshi said, "What is needed is an epiphany, for example, the four of us here have all practiced for twenty or thirty years before entering the Yuan Dan realm to cultivate, but most of the monks in this world will not be able to achieve a Dan after cultivating for a lifetime." So, time is never an issue. As long as the method is correct, three days is enough time to find the treasure, and if the method is not right, it will be in vain to find it for another thousand years. ”
"Not bad, not bad!" Xiang An smiled, "I have two ideas. ”
"Okay!" Duan Wutian said, "Let's hear it." ”
"The first is that let's think about it together and see if it's possible to guess the location of the Hidden Dragon Spring." Xiang An said, "The second is that if we really can't find it, we will simply take advantage of these barbarians to take over the island by surprise and catch the patriarch and elders to torture them." ”
"Great idea!" Duan Wutian shouted.
"What a fart!" Qingshi scolded, "We have already killed hundreds of them, and now that we have promised to return the island, we have gone back on our word and secretly attacked, is this what people do?" ”
Duan Wutian touched his head in embarrassment.
Xiang An muttered: "Do you think these barbarians are so simple and kind, they won't really believe us, I think they must have left someone to monitor us, I'm afraid that after three days, I'm afraid that there will be thousands of troops, let's honestly return the island, otherwise we won't chop us into meat puree?" I heard that this old guy is not simple, and it is said that his cultivation is already at the peak of the elixir realm. ”
"Since we have promised to return to the island," said Aoishi, "we should keep our promise." If you don't pay it back, others will naturally take it by force, isn't it normal? ”
"I can't trust them," Xiang An said, "that Wall seems to be submissive, but he is actually stalling for time, he wants to wait for the old thief of Annaba to come." When the time comes, I'm afraid that if I return this island to them, it may not end well. ”
"I don't trust them all," Qingshi said, "My original intention was to leave before they came, and we would not be able to defeat them with just four people and two boats." ”
"That's why I said I'm going to set up an ambush and take them by surprise." Xiang An said.
"No way!" Aoshi said categorically, "We can't take the initiative to attack them. There are many of them, and there are masters, even if we ambush, we may not be able to win, and besides, most of them will be guarded, and they are not so easy to ambush. ”
"Yes!" Shen Jiayun said, "I think what Brother Qingshi said is right. I think it's better for us to find the Hidden Dragon Spring as soon as possible, and it's best to take the Dragon Ball and leave. ”
"That's right! It's best to find the baby and get out of the way. Qingshi patted Shen Jiayun's head and smiled, "If we can't find it, we will slip away, and then sneak back quietly to see how they are looking for treasures......"
"Ahh Xiang An looked at Qingshi in surprise, and it took a long time to react, "I muttered in a low voice, "I thought you were a saint, but I didn't expect ......"
"What did you say?"
"I said high! That's high! ”
