Volume 1 The Story of the Asakan Chapter 77 The Secret Treasury of the Cold Mountain
Jiang Feng was a little stunned for an instant, but he didn't dare to stop in vain, for fear of attracting extra attention from the people around him, to say that no one in the Hanshan Sect knew him, he didn't believe it, after all, his identity was clearly there, and he showed his face at the Hanshan Peace Conference. There must be people with a heart to target you, but it does take a bit of courage to rashly believe that someone who deliberately bumps into you.
He feared it was a trap.
In the Hanshan Sect, there are almost no friends who can be kind to him, and it can almost be confirmed that there are none, otherwise he would not have a tentative attitude to inquire about Xiao Butiao's attitude.
The man didn't look back, Jiang Feng thought about it, and still slowly followed the person who came up. While following the curve, deliberately and frequently bypassing small obstructions, a broken carriage, a snowmaiden piled up by children, or all kinds of idlers gathered in one place, although it is impossible to completely get rid of the people who intentionally follow you, it can also play a certain role.
"Hey, here!"
Before he lost his goal, when he walked in front of a small tent, another slightly familiar voice came from inside, he was about to take a closer look, but he was unexpectedly pulled into the tent, and at the same time, another monk with a similar figure to himself walked out of the tent, judging from the figure and even the dress, it was almost the same as himself.
"How are you?"
Jiang Feng asked in a low voice, he didn't have time to sigh at the other party's means of stealing beams and changing pillars, so he quickly held his breath and cooperated with the other party to cover his whereabouts, although Ma Taiji was not familiar with this person, he guessed that the other party had no malicious intent.
"Come with me, let's find a place to talk. Ma Taiji, dressed in shabby clothes, bowed his head and turned around, but saw that behind him, there was a secret passage dug up, and he didn't know where it led.
The traces of the excavation of the secret passage were very new, and Jiang Feng discovered this as soon as he entered it. Ma Taiji led the way in front, holding a crude oil lamp in his hand, through the faint light, he could only see his slightly pale, bun tied in one place, Zhou Xing also said that this Ma Taiji was a little poor, I didn't expect to be so economical, even a spirit stone had to be saved.
The secret passage was not long, and after a few moments, the two of them entered a closed secret room, where they could not feel any changes in the air currents, and only judging by the temperature of the room, it did not seem to be in the wilderness.
"Don't worry, it's safe here. Seeing Jiang Feng looking left and right, Ma Taiji said in a low voice, "This is the meditation secret room that Tuoba Tu once used, but since he was promoted to the prefecture level, it has been deserted. ”
Topography?
With Ma Taiji's reminder, he really observed that there were traces of a few cases on the ground, presumably the furniture furnishings where the books and documents were placed, and while pretending to be "so it is", he also carefully used the "exquisite treasure light" to probe one or two, and there were no traces of the arrangement of instruments and spirit stones nearby, so he was relieved.
"Long story short, I have one thing, see if you're interested. Mattheji leaned forward slightly, lowering his voice again, "Tuoba has a secret vault, I want to go with you—" He twisted his right index finger and thumb lightly in a fetching gesture.
Well?
Jiang Feng was a little surprised, although Ma Taiji was not an elder of the Hanshan Sect, but he was also the new head of Ma Aidu's sect, why bother to seek the near and far, and report it directly to Ma Ai, could it be that he wanted to swallow it alone? If you want to say that the poor have evil thoughts, is it possible that this is what it means?
"Why do you want me to help? Brother Ma, although we don't know each other and have turned enemies into friends, we also need a reason. Jiang Feng asked himself that the friendship between the two sides had not yet reached this level, and if Zhou Xing mentioned it, it might be about the same.
"I need a Xuan-level monk to help me break the formation!" Ma Taiji's eyes did not change, as if he had already expected Jiang Feng to have this problem, "There are not many Xuan-level monks left in the Hanshan Sect now, and the rest are all close to Ma Ai, to tell you the truth, I urgently need a fortune now, otherwise I am not in a hurry to take the treasures in this secret vault." ”
Urgent need?
"You're going to run?"
"No, you misunderstood, it's really hard to say, it's inconvenient to tell you. But trust me, I'm the only one who knows about this vault, and I've only recently discovered it. ”
This is not a sufficient reason. ”
Jiang Feng said bluntly, people who lack friendship must make everything clear when they work together, otherwise when they get to the moment of sharing the spoils, they may have accidents. Speaking of the secret vault, he is still interested, after all, he is really short of money.
After the Seven Alliances negotiate peace, no matter which plan is adopted, if you want to resist the influence of the Seven Alliances, you will inevitably need more spirit stones. And this is the biggest problem at the moment, so he doesn't care what kind of treasure thief or anything like that. Of course, it is still very necessary to act cheaply to avoid being discovered, and he asked himself if Ma Taiji did not need to set up this bureau and let himself be involved, after all, it was not good for him or for the Hanshan faction.
Why aren't the Chixia Sect, the Jincheng Sect and the Luoying Sect so worried, because they have accumulated a lot of spiritual stone magic weapons in their big treasury over the years, as well as the indemnities of the Biyun Sect and the Gujian Sect, as long as they give up their money and materials, they can absorb the resources, laymen and monks of the entire Seven Alliances for their own use, on the contrary, a poor household like the Qianshan Sect will sooner or later become an empty gate.
The heart is heartbeat, but the reason given by Mattage does not convince himself.
"I need you to provide the canonization documents of the Qianshan Sect, Tuoba Tu uses the canonization documents of the Hanshan Sect as an array, which is equivalent to the strength of the ground level, and only something that contains the same power can offset that layer of seals. In the Cold Mountain Sect, only Tuoba Tu can break the formation on its own, and even if we find out, we can't enter the secret vault. ”
Canonization papers?
Jiang Feng smiled bitterly in his heart, speaking of which, the other party may not believe it, the canonization document of the Assayama Sect is not in his hands, and he doesn't even know where to go. However, I have a canonization document of Song Huzong in my hand, and I believe that the usefulness can be offset.
"There are so many families who come here to join the alliance, why don't you look for someone else?"
"Because someone else will kill me, and you don't have that strength. Ma Taiji showed a helpless smile, which seemed to be a true expression, but Jiang Feng didn't dare to believe it except for being despised and feeling secretly infrared.
Ma Taiji is right, he really doesn't have the ability to "eat black and eat black", and most of the heads of the sects attending the meeting are prefecture-level bosses, and it is easy to kill Ma Taiji and swallow the secret vault alone. Or think about it from another angle, what can you expect from the secret vault of the Hanshan faction, it is estimated that some bigwigs will scoff at it as a joke. On the other hand, the other Xuan-level monks who participated in the meeting could not have such a thing as canonization documents in hand, so they were not qualified to cooperate with him.
It seems that he is the most suitable person.
Jiang Feng thanked the dead Tuoba Tu in his heart, if he hadn't set up a formation of ground-level strength, I believe that Ma Taiji would not have thought of him, but would have gone to find a more trustworthy Zhou Xing.
"The last question, how to divide it?"
"Four-six, you four, I'm six. Ma Taiji blurted out impatiently, it seemed that he had already thought about it, Jiang Feng asked this, which made him feel a lot more relieved.
"Sanqi, I'll take one percent less, but you have to give me the canonization document of the Hanshan faction. Jiang Feng suddenly had an idea in his heart, although this canonization document had passed the protection period of the founding sect and had lost its greatest value, but in some ways, it was still useful, but he couldn't talk to Matthejido.
"Okay, that's it!" Ma Taiji couldn't understand why Jiang Feng wanted that useless canonization document, but he knew that this thing was indeed worthless, and it was a hot potato to keep in his hands, and it was even more unclear when it was discovered.
............
Hanshan faction "prayer hall" southeast, supreme pavilion.
Even though this courtyard is much more luxurious than the surrounding "Lotte Residence" and "Chi Yuan Pavilion", the name is also a bit arrogant, but fortunately, the Hanshan faction has always used this place to entertain the Shangzong Yufeng Sect, so there has never been a reprimand.
Gu Chuanfu is entertaining several visitors with a smile on his face, the leader is the head of the special envoy Li Yufeng, a Xuan-level cultivator, ranked as a "member of the lower cabinet", although the official position is not high, but at the same time, he is also the younger brother of Li Fufeng, the general envoy of the Li family, and is an important backbone of the Li family. Although the Li family and the Ling family were a little wrong, because the other party had been instructed by the head of the sect to "inspect the Seven Alliances and act cheaply", he did not dare to slack off.
"The head of the family is really a personal matter, some small things, and I have to bother you to go on a trip, all the way hard. "Gu Chuanfu's official position is not big, and he should have called each other respectfully, but he thinks that he is a cultivator, but he can call each other as a brother, so that the two are in the same position.
"Where is it, to say that Ling Shao took advantage of the situation to break the situation with one punch and get through the routine of the Seven Alliances, it is really impressive, so the head of the family is very concerned about this matter, and sent me here, wanting to quickly settle this matter and avoid accidents. I don't know where it is now, how is it going?"
"Brother Tai praised it falsely, I can't imagine it, it's really a hero out of a young man, old and old. He went through the details of the current negotiations, but he only concealed the details of the exchange of benefits with Lizong Yu Chengke.
After Ling Fei killed Tuoba Tu, Gu Chuanfu planned for a long time before he came up with this strategy to take advantage of the war of the Seven Alliances and exert influence on it, used to cover up and package Ling Feidu's miss, and designed it as Ling Feidu's strategy to break the situation in the southeast.
It is impossible for the Li family to sit back and watch the credit go to the Ling family, and now that an agreement has been reached with Li Zong, it is impossible for the Li family to sabotage this matter, otherwise it will definitely usher in the wrath of the head of the family, so the rest is a question of how much credit to share.
"This matter may still need Brother Tai's help to turn," Gu Chuanfu took out a small map that had already been prepared, with the road map depicted earlier, "Here," he pointed to the starting point of the road in the south of the Imperial Wind Sect, "I still need Brother Tai's help to operate a matter or two, and I will report it to the head of the sect together." ”
"Okay, well, I will fully cooperate. Li Yufeng nodded frequently, when he came out, some elders did make him stumble and wanted to sabotage this matter, but he had a clear understanding in his heart, this matter had great benefits for the Yufeng Sect to open up the southeast passage to the sea, and it was destroyed, even if the head of the family did not pursue it, those big families who wanted to make a fortune would secretly block their own upward path, why bother to lose their future for a Ling Fei and a moment of refreshment.
Although Ling Feidu was a gentleman in his eyes, he was not the son of the head of the house, and besides, with him covering everyone's scrutiny, wasn't he more comfortable living with a petty gentleman like himself? The purpose of his deliberate application for this trip was not just for this matter that was already a certainty.
............
"This is it!"
Jiang Feng followed Ma Taiji for two hours before he reached a snow-covered mountain cliff, which was uninhabited for miles nearby, and it was estimated that it was in the territory of Guhan Town, and it was also the first market town from the Qianshan Sect to enter the Hanshan Sect.
Cleansing charms!
Seeing that Ma Taiji had to clean up the snow by himself, Jiang Feng, who was worried that it would take too long and change later, hurriedly typed a cleaning charm, which was the remnants of the spirit cage materials he obtained from the Black Water Gate, because of the mark of the spirit cage, he almost fed the spirit puppet, and there were only a few left, presumably even if someone had a heart for divination, most of them would be confused because of the special nature of the spirit cage.
"Use less runes. Ma Taiji seemed to have some experience, but he obviously didn't know the special spirit runes used by Jiang Feng.
The snow on the ground was swept away, and at the junction of the gray-black cliff and the narrow platform where the two of them were standing, traces of the formation arrangement were faintly revealed.
