Chapter 288: Old Liar
"Little brother, then you can ask Lao Qian. I continued to line up. Don't bother a few anymore. Before Wuqi could speak, as soon as Dahan saw Ghost Shouqian speak, he seemed to have suddenly found a savior in despair, and hurriedly opened his mouth to push all the trivial matters, along with the pressure he felt, onto Ghost Shouqian's body.
Then, the others turned their heads and stopped looking at this side, as if there was something terrible here, and blended into the crowd in line.
Not kind.
The eyes of Nakorulu and Hughes showed disdain again, and they both muttered to themselves in unison. Rod frowned and didn't speak, his face was still expressionless, and he directly ignored the old man's lesson just now, and compared to the eyes of the big man who began to look at him, his gaze at this time seemed even colder, and even with a trace of undetectable contempt in the coldness.
Wuqi was not so disgusted by others, his attitude was very gentle, and he was also very polite, he bowed to Ghost Shouqian very respectfully, and asked with a smile: "Old Mr. Qian." I'm here to find out about the whereabouts of the Staff of the Witch Stripe, do you know what?"
"The Staff of the Witch Pattern?" Ghost Hand Qian asked rhetorically, and Wuqi quickly nodded in response, "Yes." It's the Staff of the Witch Pattern. A magic scepter that can compensate for the weaknesses, or flaws, of the person who owns it. I heard that it was brought here from a place by the Thousand Faces Man many years ago, so I wanted to inquire about it. ”
When the ghost hand heard this, he suddenly smiled and said, "I thought you were going to inquire about something big." Isn't it just a broken scepter? That thing sucks, it was sold by our ancestors a long time ago. ”
"Sold?As far as I know, this witch-patterned staff is a rare good thing in the world!How could it be sold so easily?" Hearing the old man's answer, Wuqi's heart sank, and a look of disbelief suddenly appeared on his face, and he muttered and asked.
Ghost Hand Qian glanced at Bai Wuqi angrily, and said disdainfully: "That's it." What kind of good thing can it be? It's just a matter of making up for the shortcomings of the person who owns it. It is also not possible to completely repair the defects. You think that thing can't be broken?"
Speaking of this, Ghost Hand Qian's words suddenly stopped, he glanced at Wuqi and the others, and then returned his gaze to Wuqi, smiled mysteriously, his eyes lit up, and said, "Really good thing." That's a rare treasure in the world. Like the Medal of Honor. There are both types that instantly increase the speed of the wearer, and there are also types that can instantly increase the amount of force.
And these improvements are permanent. Compared to these treasures, don't you think the staff of witch tattoo that you fancy is not a broken thing?"
After Ghost Hand Qian said this, there was a comparison, and everyone unconsciously compared the staff of witch patterns in their hearts at the same time. There was even a curious look in the eyes of Nakorulu and Theseus. Rod's eyes were still cold, the so-called hearing is false, seeing is believing, he didn't really believe in the words of the ghost hand, but if there was such a treasure, it would really make him a little interested.
Wuqi's expressions were different from those of the others, and compared to the medals mentioned by Ghost Hand Qian earlier, he was hardly interested. Isn't he having seen enough treasures? Not only are the treasures in the nameless scrolls far superior to those of the outside world, but there are even more magical exercises of all kinds.
His vision at this time had already reached a very high level, and he really didn't care about the Medal of Honor, because he knew very well that even if he had a treasure, if his strength could not be improved, it would be useless. Wuqi knew exactly what he needed most right now, not a treasure but a staff of witch patterns.
As soon as Ghost Hand Qian's words were finished, he didn't think about it, and asked directly: "Old Qian, old man." He's a thing to you. But I still need it so badly. So, I wish you could tell me where it was sold?"
Wuqi's words came from the bottom of his heart, there was no deception, he said it very sincerely, but when Ghost Shouqian saw Wuqi's serious expression, he frowned, and his face once again showed a thick color of disdain, and after glancing at Wuqi angrily, he pointed at Wuqi and said disappointedly: "You kid."
I'm kind enough to recommend good things to you, but you don't want it, you want that thing. It's boring. Well, since you're bent on finding that, it's okay for me to tell you. It was sold to a Sanctuary powerhouse by our ancestor a long time ago. ”,
"Sanctuary powerhouse?" said no surprise, and Na Ke Lulu and the two of them lost their voices in unison. Hughes and Rhodes didn't speak, but their eyes lit up at the same time.
"Yes. Ghost Hand Qian's eyes showed a look of incomprehension, and he glanced at Wuqi again angrily, and said, "What's the matter?
"It's not. Wuqi hurriedly shook his head and asked, "Old man." Can you tell me, which Sacred Realm powerhouse it is, is it a Dou Saint or a Sword Saint?"
It is not surprising that the powerhouses of the Sacred Realm, as long as they enter the circle of cultivators for a period of time, will know the Dao. Since the Man with a Thousand Faces was once able to take away the Staff of the Witch Pattern out of nowhere, and he could make both the Sword Saint and the Fighting Saint fearful, it was enough to prove that he was also a cultivator.
But as for how strong it is, and whether it has reached the peak of the Holy Domain, it is not clear. However, as a descendant of a cultivator, it is not surprising.
Besides, the ghost hand in front of him was obviously old, and he knew this, and Wuqi and the others didn't feel strange. However, what puzzled Wuqi in his heart was that since both the Dou Sheng and the Sword Saint said that they did not have the Staff of the Witch Pattern, who was the Sacred Domain powerhouse mentioned by the Ghost Hand Thousand Mouths?
Thinking of this, the color of confusion in Wuqi's eyes became stronger and stronger. Could it be that one of the Sword Saint and the Dou Saint was lying to him? Wuqi pondered for a long time, he only thought of this possibility, and he asked subconsciously when he opened his mouth.
"Neither. Ghost Shouqian shook his head slowly, a hint of disdain flashed faintly in his eyes, and he said slowly: "When our ancestor sold that thing, how could there be two Sacred Domain powerhouses." At that time, there was only one Sacred Domain powerhouse among the cultivators. ”
"A, who the hell is that?" asked Wuqi in shock.
"Martial Saint Perrault, known as the Lone Ranger. He is a gladiator at the pinnacle of the Sanctuary. He once traveled alone in various parts of the world, thus falling into this title. As he spoke, his eyes became brighter and brighter, as if he was talking about his own business.
The more he talked, the more excited he became, and he said with a giggle: "When he traveled all over the world and fought all over the world, he lost his trace. However, our ancestor did later sell the Staff of Witch Crest to him, and this was recorded in our family tree. If you don't believe me, you can take a look. ”
After speaking, Ghost Teesan began to touch his thin body around, from his upper body to his calves, as if he was looking for something.
It took more than a minute for him to finally take out an old piece of paper that had been completely yellowed from the cloth shoe with holes in his toe, handed it to Wuqi, and said with a smile while pointing to the paper that was beginning to rot at the corners, "This is the paper." It is the record left by our ancestors of the thousand-faced people. You take a closer look. Right here. ”
Wuqi subconsciously lowered his head, while covering his nose, he looked along the fingers of the ghost hand thousand, although the paper had begun to rot, but the words on it were clearly visible, he saw at a glance that the position pointed by the ghost hand was indeed written "A certain year, a certain month, a certain day, I met the lone ranger and sold the staff of the tattered witch pattern to the other party." ".
After reading it, he immediately returned the paper to Ghost Hand Qian, nodded as if he had realized something, and then asked, "Then do you know where that Sacred Domain powerhouse, Perro, died later?"
There are only two Sacred Domain powerhouses in the World Realm today, so Wuqi immediately judged that this Pei Luo was dead. Even if there was no staff of witch crest in the place where he died, there would have been news of it. So, this is the first thing he asked. His judgment was also the judgment of the other members of the Breaking Society.
But after listening to Wuqi's words, Ghost Hand Qian's face suddenly changed, his eyes widened, he glared at Wuqi angrily, and scolded: "You little bastard." Who told you he was dead? The Lone Ranger was a master, how could such a strong master die so easily?"
The old man's eyes jumped with anger, and Wu Qi suddenly felt irritable in his heart, he didn't want to engage in unnecessary nonsense with the old man, and said insincerely: "I believe in you." Then he looked straight and asked seriously, "Since he is not dead." Please tell me where the Lone Ranger is, okay? I need to find the Staff of the Witch Stripe urgently. Time is running out, and I hope you don't change the subject anymore. ”
"You're boring. I'm in a good mood today, and I want to tell you more interesting things. Ghost Shouqian's face suddenly showed dissatisfaction, and he snorted coldly and replied: "Young people nowadays are really impetuous. No patience at all. Good. Seeing that you are in such a hurry, I will tell you directly. I don't know where others are, and I can't know them. ,
But the last place he appeared in the world was Jubao Mountain, and if you go there, you might be able to find him. The thing you want is probably still in his hands. ”
"Thank you, sir. It wasn't until he heard Ghost Hand Qian's answer that Wuqi felt a little comforted in his heart. He hurriedly bowed to Ghost Hand Qian again, planning to leave this place with everyone and go to Jubao Mountain.
But just as he turned around, Ghost Hand Qian suddenly spoke, and said a little angrily: "What? After asking, you plan to leave? Why are you doing things so hastily? You don't even ask if Jubaoshan is the place you can go now, and you plan to go?"
Wuqi didn't speak, but his face gradually became impatient, Nako Lulu and Xius were also a little unhappy when they heard so much nonsense about Ghost Hand Qian, and their hearts began to doubt Ghost Hand Qian's words, Rod's gaze was always cold, and at this time he was even more disdainful because of Ghost Hand Qian's previous verbosity.
"Hey. Ghost Shouqian suddenly sighed for no reason, his eyes swept away Wuqi and the others, and he shook his head in disappointment, and said: "Young and frivolous, this sentence is very reliable until now! Just with you little guys, you also want to go to Jubao Mountain to break through? ”
"Then do you have any solutions?" Seeing that the ghost hand was still entangled with himself, a calm color gradually appeared in Wuqi's eyes, but the same disdain as everyone gradually rose in his heart, and even the tone of his voice was no longer gentle, and he asked coldly.
"Absolutely. Ghost Hand Qian's eyes lit up again, he straightened his waist with confidence, raised his head, looked down at Wuqi and the others, pointed to the transparent passage at the end of the long dragon behind Wuqi, and said with a smile: "Enter that passage and participate in the martial arts competition that is being held on the Mentuo Plateau." As long as you can make it to the top eight, you are eligible to go to Jubaoshan. ”
After Ghost Shouqian finished speaking, without waiting for Wuqi and the others to ask, he hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop everyone's questioning, and then said, "I know what you want to ask." I can see that you don't believe me, but I still have to finish speaking, there is a legend that there are a large number of medals of honor hidden in Jubao Mountain, as long as you climb to the top of the mountain, you can get the medal that suits you.
The purpose of the martial arts competition held in the Mentuo Plateau is to select the top eight masters with good strength to form an adventure team to explore Jubao Mountain. As for whether it will be successful or not, then I don't know the way. This should be an opportunity for you. Jubaoshan was not accessible to anyone before, and it is the same now.
However, there is a slight change from before, and the current perimeter of Jubao Mountain is occupied by a large number of mercenaries sent from the Mentuo Plateau, and the barrier at the entrance has been successfully broken. Outsiders who want to enter Jubao Mountain are not eligible to enter without obtaining the token granted by the Mentuo Plateau. Breaking through can only kill yourself.
I know that you are annoyed by me, and I am annoyed by you. Okay, that's all I have to say, let's go, I'm going home too. It's really boring, today's rare good mood is gone. Not pleasant. ”
After speaking, Ghost Hand Qian limped away under the stunned gaze of Wuqi and the others, and did not forget to say a few words while walking, looking very angry.
"How is it? Should we go to that martial arts competition?" Xiusi turned his head to look at Wuqi, and subconsciously asked, as soon as his words fell, Nakolulu frowned, glared at Xiusi angrily, and said, "Where are you going?" The old man was clearly a liar. It's so obvious, don't tell me you can't see it. ”
Hughes was embarrassed and didn't know how to answer, but remained silent, but his face was clearly answering Nakolulu, he wasn't sure. Wuqi turned his head to look at Rod, Rod's gaze has always been cold from the beginning to the present, seeing Wuqi's inquiring gaze, the cold color disappeared slightly, and he shook his head calmly, obviously he didn't believe in Ghost Hand Qian's words either.
The old man did have a problem. It's too fake. There is even a third Sacred Domain powerhouse, it can't be true. However, since I've been looking for the Staff of the Witch Pattern all the way here, if I don't continue to search, won't all my work have been wasted? This thing is very important for my future cultivation, and I have to give it a try.
What the old man said sounded half-true, perhaps all false. But Master couldn't lie to me. Since Master has said that there is a staff of witch tattoos, whether it is true or not, then I have to confirm it with my own eyes to be clear.
"I've decided!" After pondering for a few minutes, an apologetic smile suddenly appeared in Wuqi's eyes, glanced at everyone, and said, "I'm sorry, everyone. I decided to believe in the ghost hand a thousand times. After all, we don't personally confirm what he said, and we don't know whether it's true or false, are you right?"
Naco Lulu and Shuston were speechless, Rhodes still didn't speak, his eyes were still calm as water, but Wuqi's words made him raise his eyebrows and shrug his shoulders noncommittally, but it was clear that Wuqi succeeded in convincing everyone.
After seeing that everyone only expressed their protest with expressions, but no one opened their mouths to refute, a bright smile finally appeared on Wuqi's face, his eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "Then it's decided! Let's set off! The destination, the Mentuo Plateau Martial Arts Conference." ”
After Wuqi and the others followed the team, it took a long time to finally enter the transparent passage and merge into the Death Snow Mountain Belt, the old man who was moving slowly and was angry suddenly glanced back at him, no longer angry, but giggled and looked into the distance.
