Chapter Ninety-Six: Secret (Ask for Subscription, Ask for Support, Ask for Monthly Pass!)
After half an hour, Wang Hu and Chen Lin walked out of this "Baicao Xiang" with a satisfied look on their faces, and behind them there was a little guy who practiced qi at the fifth or sixth level constantly nodding his head and waist, with a smile on his face, and saying polite words such as welcome next time.
Because the two of them were big customers just now, they spent thousands of spirit stones at one time, no, this little guy called Brother Ming is needless to say how happy he is at the moment.
After all, the more income he earns from entering the store, the more spirit stones he gets will increase accordingly, although most of them will be taken away by that "Zhou Papi", but he is helpless!
His qualifications are not very good, plus in order to cultivate and make a living, he worked here when he was a child, just because his appearance is still handsome and his head is clever, so the little guy and the shopkeeper here have changed several stubbles, and his status as Brother Ming has not wavered.
On the contrary, because he is able to do things, he knows how to judge the situation, and his flattery is blurted out, and he is a very good person, so the new Wednesday shopkeeper who has been coming for more than a year will be impressed by him and entrusted with "heavy responsibilities".
However, in the past six months, Brother Ming'er has always been a little confused in his heart, and even sometimes frightened, because almost from time to time, always in the middle of the night, he will be sent to a large manor in the northwest of Fancheng to send some special secret letters, which have become more frequent recently, but the reward for this errand is also very rich, often just once, can be worth a month's salary.
At first, Brother Ming'er was naturally excited, and he was very strict when he saw Qian Yan's mouth, but with the gradual increase in the number of letters delivered, Brother Ming always had a feeling of uneasiness in his heart, which was observed by his wit and prudence.
He found that from time to time, there were always a few guys around him who disappeared inexplicably, which scared him, but on the surface he still pretended to be nothing.
After the two merchants left just now, Brother Ming looked at the store that was already dusk, afraid that no one would come again, and stretched his waist comfortably, with a sigh of relief in his mouth, and then he was ready to close the door to thank the guests.
Coincidentally, at this moment, the old dragon clock, hunched over, and the Wednesday shopkeeper who was not very steady in his walk suddenly came out of the backstage!
"The shopkeeper is good!" Brother Ming quickly put away his lazy posture, and immediately said hello to Wednesday, and the other little guys did the same.
The old man coughed on Wednesday, and then motioned for the rest of the people to go down and rest, leaving Brother Ming alone.
When Brother Ming saw this, he suddenly felt nervous in his heart, relying on his intuition, he always felt a little uncomfortable, but he naturally didn't show any signs on his face, just pretended to ask: "Shopkeeper Zhou, do you have anything to tell the boy?"
Wednesday coughed again, his face was a little pale, but at this moment, he just glanced deeply at Brother Ming'er's face, and didn't speak for a long time.
The scene was surprisingly silent, plus there were only the two of them, and for a while, the silence was a little terrifying!
Brother Ming was frightened, frightened by this scene, and hurriedly shrank back, his feet also involuntarily took a few steps back, and asked Wednesday with a trembling voice:
"Shopkeeper, you, what do you want to tell me? Whatever the boy can do, he will saddle your horse and swear allegiance to you!"
Listening to Brother Ming'er's words on Wednesday, the pale face suddenly smiled weirdly, but there was a slight cold glint in his eyes, and in a trance, he seemed to think of something, and the corners of his mouth smiled again, and he hurriedly motioned for Brother Ming to get up.
Brother Ming, who was frightened, was naturally extremely frightened in his heart at this moment, and he was completely stunned by the scephalic actions of the Wednesday shopkeeper one after another.
"Ahem, ahem, Qin Ming, you've been doing things here for some years!" Wednesday suddenly asked coldly.
With a "brush", Qin Ming's face suddenly became ugly, and his heart was also up and down, and in an instant, he subconsciously remembered the rest of the little guys who disappeared mysteriously!
Wednesday looked at Qin Ming's big move, and immediately laughed, and then said: "Cough, Qin Ming, I don't want to dismiss you, you have been really diligent in your work in recent years, I just want to ask you about the situation of the two merchants who came today! Don't worry, tonight's task is still up to you, you can take these spirit stones." ”
When Qin Ming heard this, although he was still a little uneasy in his heart, he also hurriedly got off the donkey down the slope, and very carefully told Wednesday a series of nuanced events such as the demeanor, language, and actions of Wang Hu and Chen Lin who came today, but he didn't dare to pick up these spirit stones in his hands.
But to Qin Ming's surprise, Wednesday was surprisingly generous this time, with a wave of his hand, he ordered him to accept these spirit stones, and only heard him say at the moment: "Yes, Qin Ming, you are doing a good job, go down and rest, come to me at midnight!"
In this way, although Qin Ming was full of questions, he was quite confused by the second monk, and he was also very scared, but he could only walk towards his room in fear.
But like this, he still didn't dare to stay for a moment, and hurriedly crawled away, but he always felt in his heart that today's shopkeeper Zhou was a little abnormal, which was not quite the same as the usual stinginess.
Wednesday looked at Qin Ming's figure in the distance, a wicked smile suddenly flashed at the corner of his mouth, and then he clapped his hands, and by the way, an enchantment was formed, and suddenly, a man in black appeared here!
"Shadow Fiend, it looks like it's not safe here!" As soon as this person appeared on Wednesday, the corners of his eyes immediately felt a little cold.
"Hmph, it's a matter of time, since we can break into the Heavenly Sword Sect, then the other party will naturally break into us, it's nothing, it's just the young master's plan......"
"Naturally, some Heavenly Sword Sect masters and factions have been bribed above, and it is estimated that it won't be long before this Fancheng will fall......"
Next, the two men conspired together about this secret matter.
......
Wang Hu and Chen Lin walked a long way before they arrived at an inn, and then the two waited there for Ye Yun and the others to arrive.
For about a quarter of an hour, Ye Yun went to the place where the two of them met alone, leaving Huang Xuan alone to wait for an opportunity to investigate.
As soon as he entered, Ye Yun immediately formed an enchantment, and then carefully took out a set of magic circles that blocked spiritual power.
Immediately afterwards, Ye Yun asked the two about the harvest of this investigation.
"Senior Brother Ye, you really got it right, this shop is really not simple, when Senior Brother Chen and I pretended to buy elixir, we always felt that there was a power of divine consciousness enveloping the two of us, if it weren't for our cultivation that had reached the peak of Qi cultivation, I'm afraid we wouldn't have noticed it! ”
"Oh, what kind of strange phenomenon, come and hear about it!" Ye Yun heard this, and hurriedly beckoned the two of them to continue.
This time, it was Chen Lin who was talking.
"We found out that there was a strange scent in this shop, which could make people unconscious, and the head was a little wooden, and the strength of our infinite proximity switch would also fall into a dull state. Do you think that's weird?"
Ye Yun pursed his lips, his eyes were a little unhappy, what kind of news is this, he wants other news, it is difficult for the other party to not even leave a trace of clues, Ye Yun doesn't believe it, it seems that he still has to probe again, of course, Ye Yun didn't blame these two people, just said: "Explore it at night!"
Wang Hu and Chen Lin naturally looked at each other, although they got the news that there were spies from the Tiansha Sect here, but they also had to find evidence, they couldn't be indiscriminate, and directly deduct a big hat to others, in this case, wouldn't it seem that their Heavenly Sword Sect was bullying, and it would also cause a bad impact.
Moreover, the interior of the Heavenly Sword Sect is very complicated, and many things cannot be done on the open side, so many tasks are completed in secret.
"Quick, it's not good, hurry back!" Ye Yun suddenly patted his head, and then hurriedly beckoned the two of them to walk back.
Simply, there was no accident, Huang Xuan, who was hidden on the side, was still lurking unharmed at the moment, seeing Ye Yun and the three of them hurrying over, Huang Xuan was very surprised, and hurriedly asked what happened?
By this time, it was already dark, and during the war, the night market was banned in Fancheng, so many mansions only had light, and except for one or two teams of law enforcement guards from time to time, few people appeared.
Seeing that Huang Xuan was unharmed, Ye Yun was a little relieved, and immediately hurriedly formed an enchantment, which was the same as before, and planted a few ordinary yellow formation banners that blocked the sound of spiritual power.
"What's wrong here?" Ye Yun squatted down and asked in a low voice.
"No, we have been lurking here since the morning, and there has not been the slightest movement, so it is possible that the information is not accurate. Huang Xuan shook his head, his eyes full of puzzled looks.
Ye Yun immediately made a decision, and hurriedly said to the three of them:
"Don't worry, everyone, wait for two more hours, and in the dead of night, I'll investigate, but from now on, we all have to be in good spirits, and monitor all around this shop separately, in case there are any clues passing by, the information in the sect will definitely not be wrong, be careful!"
Ye Yunxiu was the highest in the number of people present, and everyone naturally did not object, and nodded and obeyed his command.
Two hours passed quickly, and there were no other figures here except for a team of patrolling guards who had just come, which made Ye Yun and the others faintly anxious.
After all, if the enemy does not act, they are helpless at all, and if they are not careful, after startling the snake, this thief's den will be difficult to find.
But fortunately, just as Ye Yun was preparing to explore at night, there was a sudden slight movement here, and at this time, a sneaky black figure came out of the door.
Seeing this, Ye Yun and the four of them were naturally overjoyed, after all, after guarding for several hours, they finally had eyebrows, and at a distance of more than twenty meters, Ye Yun glanced at Wang Hu and signaled him to follow the man in black later.
What made a few people's faces ugly was that in just a while, four or five sneaky black-clothed people appeared here one after another, and their directions were not at all the same, which made Ye Yun and the others a little surprised for a while!
Happily, there is a den of thieves here, and the surprise is that these people are too slippery to play this kind of trick.
After a short while, Ye Yun carefully checked and found that no one appeared again, plus the other three people were quite eager to make meritorious contributions, and they encouraged Ye Yun vigorously, although Ye Yun felt that it was not appropriate, but he couldn't bear the passion of everyone.
Only then did he signal the three of them to act immediately, and at the same time warned them that they must be hit with one blow, and then he also walked towards one of the men in black!
But what Ye Yun and the others didn't know was that just as they were scattering, another cyan man came out of the gate.
"Mom, this is a head for a spirit stone!" It was that Qin Ming, needless to say at the moment, his face was really not good-looking.
"Brother Ming, go ahead, they have been lured away, remember not to throw any tricks on the road, otherwise, your peers who died strangely will all end up. ”
Qin Ming listened to Wednesday's threatening words, his face suddenly turned pale, and he hurriedly said, "Yes, the kid knows!"
He knew that his seal was good, but at the same time it was a little sad, and he sighed slightly, I'm afraid that it will not be so easy to get on this thief ship!
At that moment, he didn't dare to talk nonsense, so he hurriedly put on a black cloak, disappeared into his figure, and then picked a path and walked quickly.
It didn't take long for Ye Yun to gradually catch up with a man in black, but at this moment, the more Ye Yun thought about it, the more he felt that something was not quite right, this was too smooth! Blatantly dispatched several spies at once, isn't this too dangerous.
"Oops, I'm afraid I've fallen for the enemy's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain!" Ye Yun chuckled in his heart, and hurriedly prepared to go back.
"This fellow Daoist, since he is here, why are you still in such a hurry to leave!" The man in black who was walking suddenly turned around at this moment, and his mouth was full of sarcasm.
Ye Yun was a little familiar when he heard this, so he deliberately lowered his voice, and immediately said without changing his face:
"It seems that Your Excellency has planned it for a long time, but when did you find out about us, which surprised me?"
"Hmph, you should go down to the region and ask about this matter again!"
The man in black snorted coldly, and didn't answer Ye Yun's question at all. A dark black long sword in his hand had already been struck.
Dark night, the world of killers.
Although Ye Yun was testing this person's tone just now, he did not stop in his hand, and the blood-colored scimitar was immediately refined.
But at this moment, when the man in black saw this knife, he suddenly blurted out: "Who are you?
The more Ye Yun listened to this, the more familiar he felt, but in view of the unreasonableness of this person, he only snorted coldly: "Who am I, there are many scimitars that are exactly the same in the world, take the move." ”
When the man in black heard this, he was immediately furious, and the spirit sword in his hand was also unceremoniously greeted with Ye Yun's scimitar, but in an instant, the two had already fought for several rounds, and Ye Yun's hands were even more numb.
"Late stage cultivator?" Ye Yun had an incredulous look on his face, after a short confrontation, he had already noticed that the person in front of him was not weak in cultivation.
"Hmph, kid, you seem to be very familiar, and your strength is not bad, you can actually confront me for so long with your initial strength!But ......" The man in black looked at Ye Yun's rather surprised eyes, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, but there was a faint appreciation in his eyes!
At this time, Ye Yun had a little turmoil in his heart, he didn't expect that there was a monk in this place who was in the late stage of enlightenment, which naturally showed that this place was extraordinary.
Thinking of this, Ye Yun's expression suddenly became cold, if it was before, he would only have escaped when he met such a late-stage monk, but now he can hold five or six treasures large and small in his hands, even if he is not defeated, he also has the power to parry.
The only slight deficiency is that these treasures are sacrificed
It all takes time, and one thing is obvious, the man in black in front of him won't give him much time. Ye Yun's eyes rolled slightly, and he immediately sneered.
"The spy of the Tiansha Sect, the master won't play with you anymore!" Ye Yun smiled contemptuously at the black-clothed man in front of him, and then fled directly backwards, his speed speeding up a few points.
When the man in black saw this, he was naturally furious, and shouted in his mouth: "Don't be rampant!"
Subsequently, the man in black hurriedly pursued towards the place where Ye Yun fled, but to his surprise, Ye Yun actually disappeared without a trace at this moment, however, the man in black cultivated on his own, and did not take Ye Yun, an early monk, in his eyes at all, and at the moment the power of divine consciousness was released repeatedly, waiting for an opportunity to find Ye Yun's traces.
But after a while, he didn't even notice the wool, which made the man in black in the late stage of enlightenment a little unbearable. It was true that he didn't believe that Ye Yun would leave this place, this person must still be waiting for an opportunity to hide somewhere, waiting for him to appear.
"Hmph, then you can hide here, but a few of your companions may not be so lucky!" The man in black was really a little aggrieved in his heart, he was a late-stage monk, but he couldn't find an early-stage monk, if he went back and was known by others, then he wouldn't be ridiculed to death.
At this moment, the sound of a tree branch being trampled on suddenly came from not far from the man in black, but for a moment, the man in black suddenly grinned, and then suddenly, the speed as fast as thunder had already hit the clearing!
A strong sense of crisis suddenly spread to every pore of the man in black, and in an instant, cold sweat broke out on the man's forehead, and the killer's instinctive reaction made him move his body slightly to the side for a short distance.
Sure enough, in an instant, a very small five-star flying mark shot out from the empty space that the man in black had skimmed over, and if it wasn't for the man in black to dodge quickly, this mark would have hit him.
The black-clothed man's face turned pale, and he suddenly snorted coldly, and a huge red spiritual power headed towards the position of the hair marker, and then this person formed a set of sword formations around him like thunder.
Vaguely, the man in black only saw a young man wearing a straw hat, needless to say, this person was Ye Yun.
Seeing that the blow missed, Ye Yun hurriedly urged the hidden sky on his head again, turned around, and finally disappeared again after rolling repeatedly!
Only the man in black with a gloomy face and a sword formation was left at the scene.
......
