Holding this treasure chest in his hand and looking at it for a while, Chu Liang suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

If it were those three little things, he wouldn't feel guilty if he touched them casually, after all, they weren't good people. However, this treasure chest seems to be very valuable, and it is impossible for the three little ones to have treasures worthy of being inside.

Eighty percent of them were stolen goods.

If it was someone else's thing, Chu Liang naturally couldn't take it for himself. But the three little ones ran so fast that they couldn't ask if they wanted to catch them and ask who the owner was.

After thinking about it, he decided to go back to Yipin Sword House first and ask Xu Sui if he could help find the owner.

When he returned to the sword house, Xu Sui happened to be absent, he should have entered the grass house where the sword was cast to deliver food and water to Xu Kunwu, and Chu Liang sat in the lobby and waited for him, while playing with the treasure chest.

At this moment, the emperor daughter Feng walked in with a grin and asked, "What are you doing here?" ”

"I picked up a treasure chest, and I don't know where to find the lost owner, so I want to ask Brother Xu if there is a way to help find it." Chu Liang replied.

"If you open it and see what's inside, you might know who the owner is." Emperor Maiden Feng Dao.

"But this treasure chest is quite strange, it should only be ...... with special spells," Chu Liang held up and said.

"Let me be the teacher, I will be the best at opening treasure chests." Emperor Maiden Feng smiled confidently.

After that, I saw her stretch out a finger and sneer.

An incomparably precise purple-gold flame leaped out of her hand like a bird, swirling in the air and fleeting.

Looking at Chu Liang's palm again, there was only a thick book left, and there was no box.

"Where's the treasure chest?" He asked with a wink.

"It's on." Emperor Maiden Feng said calmly.

"No......" Chu Liang's hand gestured in the empty place, "It's open, it's open, what about the box?" ”

"It's all open, what else do you want the box for?" Emperor Maiden Feng asked puzzled.

What you said makes sense...... Chu Liang was speechless.

He turned his attention to the book in his hand, which must be of great value if it could be stored in such a precious treasure chest.

When the master and apprentice opened it, it was actually a thick account book, densely recording the accounts of several years.

"It's all ...... on it" Emperor Maiden Feng also stared, and said with a solemn expression: "Numbers!" ”

Chu Liang nodded, and he muttered: "This is an account that records the private transactions between the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall and the Wolf Tooth Gang, and it is a rare account. In the end, the proceeds were taken to other places and exchanged for cultivation resources, and then reincorporated into the Wolf Tooth Gang. ”

"I suspect that this is a transaction carried out by the high-level reselling spirit beasts in the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall in private, because the Wolf Tooth Gang is just a channel and not a buyer, it stands to reason that the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall has a background in the Whale Gang, not to mention in Gluttonous City, even if the four seas of Kyushu do not need this kind of channel with a high share."

"If there is a high-level injury to the public and private interests, it is completely reasonable. The book is kept so closely guarded, not because it is precious, but because if it is discovered, it will expose the dirty deeds. ”

It's so easy to launder money in this world, just go out and come back and say that you have found a treasure in a secret place or a dangerous place. There is no way to find out the huge amount of property from unknown sources, and it only needs to be replaced with a heavenly treasure to be carefully hidden. If you want to thoroughly investigate these cats from above, the only thing that can't be matched is the number of existing demon beasts in the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall......

The arrival of Xu Hongqiu, the eldest lady of the Whale Gang, the turmoil in the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall, and the performance of the middle-aged man who rushed to kill last night...... Because of this account book, it was suddenly connected in Chu Liang's mind.

I see.

He looked abrupt.

And Emperor Nufeng was confused next to her, "You can see so many of these numbers in this big pile?" What's the code? ”

Alas.

Chu Liang sighed silently, not blaming her.

Shizun is already very capable of fighting, if he is more educated, then how can others mix?

At this time, Xu Sui also came back from outside the door, and when he saw the two of them, he greeted: "Senior, Chu Shaoxia, you came to me?" ”

"yes." Chu Liang raised his head and asked, "Brother Xu, I want to ask you who is the shopkeeper of the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall?" ”

"Huh? Ten Thousand Beasts Hall ......" Xu Sui was stunned and thought: "That is an important industry of the Whale Gang, and it is the main thing surnamed Xu, which seems to be called Xu Nanling." ”

Chu Liang smiled slightly, it was really him.

……

Later in the evening, the Hall of Ten Thousand Beasts welcomed two uninvited guests.

Because the name reported by the other party was Shushan Emperor Maiden Phoenix, Xu Hongqiu put down the matter at hand and came out to greet him personally, followed by Xu Nanling and Elder Cangxing, as well as two teams of subordinates of the Whale Gang.

It can be said that everything that can be fought in the Hall of Ten Thousand Beasts has come.

"The younger whale gang Xu Hongqiu, I have long admired the name of my predecessors." As soon as she saw the emperor and the phoenix, she took the lead in bowing her head.

Then he raised a pair of bright eyes, and looked directly at the emperor and the phoenix, and the momentum was not lost.

Emperor Nufeng didn't put pressure on her, but put her hands in her sleeves, glanced at her lazily, and immediately smiled: "Oh, you are Xu Bashan's daughter?" It's ...... that he's so ugly to give birth to such a beautiful little girl as you."

"Master." Chu Liang tugged at her sleeve.

"What's wrong? Didn't I greet her politely first, salute first and then soldier. Emperor Maiden Feng turned around and whispered.

Okay, redefine "politeness".

"In the previous Nanguancheng case, thanks to the two seniors and apprentices who helped me clean up the portal, I have always wanted to find an opportunity to solemnly thank my seniors, but recently I have been entangled in affairs here, so I didn't make the trip. It is really ashamed that the seniors have to come to the door to meet. ”

Xu Hongqiu's face did not change, and he was polite to the emperor and the phoenix.

"Eh-" Emperor Nufeng waved her hand and said indifferently: "There is no need to mention this kind of thing as eradicating evil, I do one hundred and eighty things every year, and I came today mainly to ask about last night's incident." ”

"Last night?" Xu Hongqiu looked at Chu Liang.

"Alas......" Chu Liang sighed and twisted, "I kept saying that I was fine, it was all a misunderstanding, but the master had to pull me to ask about the situation...... Ahem, ahem! ”

As he spoke, he coughed heavily.

There's no way, it wasn't good for him to suddenly turn his face now after leaving so righteously and awe-inspiring last night. So the master and apprentice discussed before they came, one sang red face and the other white face.

"My apprentice is honest and upright." Emperor Nufeng made a heartbroken statement, "It's especially easy for people to be bullied when you go out, and I can't protect him as a teacher." I'm just here to ask, who beat my apprentice last night? ”

"Senior, this matter is our fault......" Xu Hongqiu's face was embarrassed, and he was thinking about how to explain it to Emperor Nufeng.

Xu Nanling, who was behind, had a stiff face, he was not a fool, so he could naturally see that the master and apprentice were here to find fault.

Most of them are also slanderous.

But he was not afraid at this time.

Because after the turmoil in the Hall of Ten Thousand Beasts last night, all the demon beast deficits were counted in the losses, although it is very doubtful, but there is no definite evidence, his position is still unshakable.

Even if Xu Hongqiu came with an arrow, he couldn't do anything to him.

In fact, he has always looked down on Xu Hongqiu. Because this is simply the little girl he watched grow up, she is not yet twenty years old this year, what can she do?

Now that he heard Xu Hongqiu admit his mistake first, he was suddenly a little displeased.

If it is the fault of the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall if he admits it, doesn't it mean that he admits that it is the fault of Xu Nanling alone? This little girl not only made a loss to outsiders by doing this, but also was blackmailed and sold herself.

It's true to say that she has no ability, if this matter is handled by someone with experience in the rivers and lakes, she must bite herself to death, at best it is a misunderstanding.

So he stepped forward and interrupted Xu Hongqiu's words loudly, "I beat it!" ”

Hold on to the momentum first.

In an instant, he had already thought of all kinds of plans in his heart, no matter how Emperor Nufeng was responsible, he was confident that he could refute them one by one, so that the other party would return in vain.

It's a pity that the imaginary war of words didn't happen.

Seeing that he suddenly stepped forward and interrupted loudly, the originally smiling eyebrows and eyes converged slightly, with a cushion on her left foot, her right leg lifted, and she flew up with a kick.

Bang –

Thundered!

This kick didn't seem to be fast or heavy, but it hit Xu Nanling's chest, and his figure disappeared from the hall in an instant. Immediately after that, there was a bang on the lobby wall, then another bang on the outer wall of the courtyard, and then another bang on the wall of the shop across the street......

Every time there was a roar, the faces of all the people in the hall trembled. Finally, after six or seven successive roars, the sound stopped.

This seemingly easy kick actually kicked Xu Nanling out of three streets!

Emperor Maiden Feng put down her legs, dug out her ears with her left hand, looked at the direction where Xu Nanling disappeared with a displeased expression, and asked without knowing who she was talking to:

"What are you doing so loudly?"
