Chapter 466: Thieves are hard to prevent
After comforting the Void Elder, Liang Cheng ignored him anymore, turned his head to Shu Tuan and Tonghai and said: "According to what I obtained from searching for the soul of this squid essence, the purpose of the Sea Clan's exploration in the Demon Cave is to find a clue to open this Chengtian Tower, but what is in this Chengtian Tower, this squid spirit does not know because of its low status. ”
Shu Tuan asked, "City Lord, can't the key you got in the Demon Cave earlier even open this Heavenly Tower?"
Liang Cheng shook his head, briefly told Shu Tuan about the previous situation, Shu Tuan also muttered for a while after listening, and then took out the metal bottle from the brocade box, held the bottle in his left hand, and slapped the end of the bottle with his right hand a few times at the mouth of the bottle, and then still covered the stopper, frowning and thinking.
"This taste...... The subordinates seem to have smelled it somewhere, maybe it's been too long, wait for the subordinates to think about it. Shu Tuan thought carefully for a while, and suddenly clapped his hands: "By the way, my subordinates were lucky enough to participate in a strange sea market when they were young, and they should have smelled this smell there......"
As soon as Shu Tuan said this, Tong Hai suddenly said: "Oh! As soon as Master Shu said this, I also remembered that I had smelled this strange smell in Rakshasa Sea City! This bottle used to contain the unique five aggregate true water of the Sea Clan!"
"General Tonghai is right! This bottle must have contained the Five Aggregates True Water! In this way, it turns out that General Tonghai has also been to Rakshasa Sea City. Shu Tuan said, glancing at the copper sea with deep meaning.
Tong Hai pouted: "You have been to Master Shu, so it is not surprising that Ben will have lived in Wanghai City for most of his life, and he has been to Rakshasa Sea City a few times." ”
Liang Cheng was curious: "Rakshasa Sea City, what is the situation?"
Shu Tuan hurriedly explained: "City Lord, in this Wanghai City, the relationship between the Terrans and the Sea Clan has always been bad, and they often harass each other, and they all regard each other as a potential enemy, but the Sea Clan has a lot of resources and specialties, which are not available on land, and the same is true for the other way, the Terrans also have a lot of land resources that the Sea Clan needs, so that it is inevitable that the two clans will temporarily put down their hostile posture from time to time, so as to exchange resources and communicate with each other." As a result, a kind of temporary market called 'Rakshasa Sea Market' came into being. ”
"I see. Liang Cheng suddenly understood, thought for a while, and said: "It is difficult to organize such a temporary market, and it is necessary for people with prestige to organize the two sides who are hostile to each other to come together and do business in harmony." ”
"What the city lord said is extremely true! This is the case, the Rakshasa Sea City is indeed organized by the high-ranking monks of the Terran and the Sea Clan, and it is usually held on the fifteenth night of the double moon, on the sea. Every time it's just one night, the market closes at dawn, the Terrans go ashore, the Sea Clan goes into the water, each goes its own way, in fact, there is also a consensus between the Terran and the Sea Clan high-level behind this, if there is no acquiescence of the high-level of the two races, this Rakshasa Sea Market will not be able to do. Shu Tuan said.
Shu Tuan talked about this Rakshasa Sea City, but Tonghai stood aside silently, with a thoughtful look on his face, Liang Cheng saw it in his eyes, but he didn't ask anything, he just felt that Tonghai was a little strange in his attitude towards Rakshasa Sea City.
After Shu Tuan finished speaking, he leaned over to the keyhole of the Chengtian Pagoda and looked at it, and also took the key to test it, and then said: "According to the placement method of these things in the brocade box, if the subordinates expect it to be good, this key should be dipped in the five aggregate true water, and then inserted into the keyhole, so that the light blue obstruction in the keyhole will be dissolved by the five aggregate true water, and then this lock can be opened." ”
"That's right!It should be like this!" Liang Cheng felt that this view should be correct, but then he had to think about how to get the Five Aggregates True Water, because the Sea Clan was also coveting the Chengtian Tower, he didn't know what way to get the Five Aggregates True Water, this way Liang Cheng currently had only one thought, that is, to go to the Rakshasa Sea City to have a look.
Shu Tuan said again: "It's August 13 now, and the next time the Rakshasa Sea City opens will be on August 15, there are just two days left, or General Tonghai and I will quietly go and investigate to see if we can get the Five Aggregates True Water." ”
When Tonghai heard this, he frowned tightly and said nothing, and Liang Cheng asked, "General Tonghai, don't you have any difficulties and can't go to Narakshasa Hai City?"
"This ......" Tonghai looked at Liang Cheng deeply: "City Lord, please forgive me, the last general is unwilling to go to Narakshasa Sea City, there is really something unspeakable, I can't say it, please don't ask again, Lord City Lord." ”
"Oh......" Liang Cheng saw that Tong Hai's performance was really strange, but if he continued to ask the bottom line, Tong Hai would definitely not want to say it, so not only would he not get any information, but he would also alienate one of his right-hand men.
So Liang Cheng glanced at Shu Tuan quite meaningfully, turned his head to Tonghai and said: "Forget it, anyway, this matter is not in a hurry, anyway, this Chengtian Tower has been unable to open for hundreds of thousands of years, and there is nothing abnormal, so this matter is not urgent, let's leave it to be solved later, we are currently in a little tense with the Sea Clan, so don't go to the Rakshasa Sea City for the time being, everyone should follow the steps and do what needs to be done at hand." ”
Tong Hai bowed: "The city lord is wise!"
Liang Cheng nodded, waved his hand and accepted the brocade box containing the key to the Chengtian Pagoda and the small bottle, and then said to the old Taoist priest Xuyuan: "If this thing is still placed in Ruo Que Guan now, it is easy to cause disasters, so it is better for the city lord to keep it on his behalf, if there is any situation, immediately send someone to report to me." "Vertex
Where did the old Taoist priest Xuyuan dare to say half a word, not to mention that he also knew in his heart that his cultivation was not good, and holding these treasures was simply asking for his own death, and he wished that someone could take it far away.
So Xuyuan said: "Of course, of course, this thing is kept by the city lord, it is the safest, so very good, so very good!"
So Liang Cheng took Shu Tuan and Tonghai out of Ruoqiaoguan, and after coming out, Liang Cheng said: "General Tonghai, Master Shu, you are busy with your own affairs, with the efforts of the two, Wanghai City can now be said to be a great rule, there will be no problem, I will go back to the house by myself."
After Tonghai and Shu Tuan heard this, they dispersed after saying "obey", Liang Cheng also carried the little monkey brick, led by the light, and walked slowly towards the city lord's mansion, along the way to look at the shops on the street, and wandered around from time to time for a while.
......
But it was said that Tonghai left Liang Cheng, all the way with a gloomy face and did not speak, walking on the street, the two relatives who followed him glanced at each other, and one of them asked: "General, should we go to the yamen to do business or go home?"
Tong Hai looked at the sky: "It's been this hour, what kind of yamen are you going to, go back to the house!" After finishing speaking, he found that he was thinking about his heart, and now he was walking towards the city gate, no wonder these two relatives wanted to ask such a question, so Tong Hai rubbed his forehead, turned around and walked towards his general military mansion.
After Tong Hai returned to his General Soldier's Mansion, he rested, but at this time, a person came out of the side door of the General Soldier's Mansion, and he looked like one of the two relatives who followed Tong Hai before, only to see that he had changed into a gray coat, dressed very inconspicuously, and slowly walked around the back streets and alleys outside the mansion, looking like he was wandering.
After walking for a while, the man in gray looked left and right, and after making sure that no one saw him, he turned around and walked quickly to a small alley, and soon came to a dilapidated door.
The man in gray stretched out his hand and knocked on the door twice, stopping for two breaths, then knocking six more times, and then stood there waiting, and after about five or six breaths, the little dilapidated door creaked open, opening a distance more than a man wide between the two door panels.
The man in gray flashed through the small door, and then the old little door was closed again, and the man in gray walked through the small courtyard to a hut with an open door, which was not lit, and it was pitch black, except that a figure could be seen sitting on a chair in the room.
The gray-clothed man did not enter the house, stood outside the door with a respectful expression, and said softly: "Mr. Ma, you are polite, today Tonghai took people to the Fumo Cave to set up an ambush, preparing to arrest the sea clan spies, but I didn't expect that Shu Tuan also got the news and also went there to set up an ambush, but the two sides argued, and at this time, the city lord of Wanghai personally went to the Fumo Cave......"
The gray-clothed man 1510 reported everything that happened today in detail to Mr. Ma who was sitting in the room, and did not hide it at all.
Mr. Ma also listened very carefully, and asked a few words at the key points, and after the gray-clothed man said what happened in Ruo Queguan, he asked, "What did you say?
The man in gray replied, "Exactly!" but Tonghai seemed to have some concerns and was unwilling to participate, so the city lord postponed the matter. ”
"Hmm...... Go on. Mr. Ma was noncommittal after hearing this, and the man in gray went on to tell the rest of the story in detail.
After listening to the gray-clothed man's account, Mr. Ma said, "Okay, well done! You go back first, so as not to leave the General Military Mansion for too long and make them suspicious." ”
After finishing speaking, Mr. Ma threw out two green shiny things and flew to the gray-clothed man outside the house, and the gray-clothed man reached out to take it, but it was two high-grade wood spirit stones.
"Thank you, Mr. Ma, then retire!" The man in gray showed a smile on his face, bowed slightly to Mr. Ma, and returned to the courtyard the same way, the small door "ah" sounded, and then closed gently, obviously the man in gray had already gone out of the small door.
Mr. Ma got up from his chair, immediately left the small courtyard, and then walked around the streets of Wanghai City, and after confirming that no one was following, he went straight to the Tongju Mansion.
