Chapter 212: Inquiry
Before a few people could speak, the picture in mid-air suddenly changed.
The thick black mist gathered around the magic stone, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
Someone couldn't help but exclaim.
"It's ......"
The others all looked at the scene in mid-air with heavy faces.
Half a sound, after seeing Mo Zhuoyu's test, it was found that Wuling Mountain had returned to normal, and everyone calmed down a little.
As the picture of the lingering stone disappeared, the eyes of the five people in the room instantly shifted to Mo Zhuoyu's body. Four of them were Yuanying monks, and the coercion in their sights made Mo Zhuoyu's posture more solemn.
The inquiring gaze fell on Mo Zhuoyu for a while, and Li Xiao finally took the lead in speaking.
"What the hell is that?"
Mo Zhuoyu knew what the other party was suspicious of, and he didn't hide it, so he reached out and took out the jade box in his arms and handed it over.
"Lord Yu, this thing was obtained by accident in the Continent of Good and Evil, and I have never known its use, but I didn't expect it to play an unexpected role in this mission. ”
Li Xiao made a casual move, and the jade box was in his hands.
When Mo Zhuoyu saw him open the jade box, he seemed to want to pick up the magic stone, and immediately said, "Lord be careful, I don't know what this thing is, since it absorbed the black mist on the mountain, it will actually erode the meridians in the monk's body." ”
"Oh!"
Li Xiao's face showed a hint of surprise, and his gaze gradually changed as he looked at the magic stone.
The few Yuanying monks who were originally sitting beside him finally couldn't help but be curious, and got up and gathered over.
After a few people observed for a while, suddenly a very young-looking Yuanying male cultivator opened his mouth tremblingly.
"Lord, is this thing the thing drawn on the historical map?"
Li Xiao didn't speak, but another white-haired Yuanying monk next to him sat down on the chair tremblingly.
"Devil, devil, hey! chaos, chaos is coming!"
He sighed as he slapped the armrest of the seat below him with his thin palm, a look of despair on his face.
Li Xiao looked at the pitch-black magic stone, and finally closed the jade box with a half-sound.
He raised his head to look at Mo Zhuoyu and said slowly, "Do you know what this is?"
Mo Zhuoyu shook her head when she heard this, although she handed over the magic stone, she couldn't reveal what she already knew.
Otherwise, the matter of Bai Yi and Su Meixue would no longer be able to be hidden.
Although the whereabouts of those two people are unknown, they are still the targets of the righteous monks.
If it is found that Mo Zhuoyu knows and does not report it, I am afraid it will be difficult to explain.
In order to show that he really didn't know the use of the magic stone, Mo Zhuoyu even released all the ghosts that were originally stored in the magic stone.
Li Xiaoyuan didn't think that Mo Zhuoyu knew the answer, and he didn't say much when he saw this. Instead, the middle-aged infant female cultivator was left, and suddenly interjected, "Do you want to explain, why is there a section in the Shadow Stone that has been blocked?"
When the words fell, Mo Zhuoyu instantly felt a faint coercion that fell on him.
Fortunately, Mo Zhuoyu had already thought of his words, and he was not flustered when he heard the words.
"Lord Qiqi, seniors, before going down the mountain, I used various methods to test ways to prevent the loss of spiritual power. Finally, I happened to remember that this stone was more mysterious, so I tried it, and who knows, I found that it can offset the invasion of unknown things on the mountain, so I took this thing up the mountain. ”
Mo Zhuoyu's gaze swept slightly over the faces of several people, but he didn't find anything, and continued: "It's the narrow-mindedness of the younger generation, thinking that this thing is a strange thing, so he had an ignorant idea for a while, and blocked the shadow stone. However, after the black mist appeared, the stone was abnormal, and the juniors immediately woke up and did not dare to hide anything. ”
After speaking, Mo Zhuoyu bowed deeply and waited for it to fall.
After listening to this, the faces of the people in the audience did not change much.
It is also common for monks to be private. If there are rare things, it is reasonable that they do not want to leak them.
Although Mo Zhuoyu's practice is not very in line with the rules, it has not been expressly prohibited, and it has not been without precedent before.
After the first few people glanced at each other, Li Xiao waved his hand, "Since this thing is what you obtained from the battlefield of good and evil, then you will tell its origin again in its original form." ”
Mo Zhuoyu said yes respectfully, then slowly straightened up, and described the process of getting the magic stone in detail after a little modification, and emphasized the difference between the appearance of the original magic stone and the current one.
After listening to what Mo Zhuoyu said, everyone in the audience had different faces.
Li Xiao turned his head to look at the three people around him, "What do you think of Elder Xu, Yu Daoyou, and Wei Daoyou?"
Xu Lao's originally desperate look became even more dead after listening to Mo Zhuoyu's story. Hearing this, he only shook his head again and again.
It was the younger male cultivator surnamed Wei who nodded at Li Xiao, "Lord, it should indeed be that thing!"
Although the other middle-aged female cultivator did not speak, her face was also heavy, and she did not refute when she heard the words.
Seeing this, Li Xiao sighed. nodded to Mo Zhuoyu first, "You have completed the task, as for how to judge, I will discuss it carefully after I wait, you can retreat first." ”
After speaking, Li Xiao turned his head and said a word of advice to the Jindan monk.
"Sun Ling, you take her down first and settle her down. ”
After Sun Ling, the Jindan monk, answered, he immediately walked towards Mo Zhuoyu.
Watching the two of them walk out of the door, Li Xiao turned his head and said to the other three: "This matter is serious, I will immediately report to the domain master." Now you have to discuss it first, look at the results of this candidate, and how to judge. ”
The three of them glanced at each other and nodded, and finally Xu Shen said, "Okay!"
Hearing this, Li Xiao nodded, "Okay, after all the candidates for the other tasks are all here, we will decide on the final candidates." ”
No matter how a few people on this side dealt with it, after Mo Zhuoyu followed Sun Ling out on the other side, the two naturally chatted.
Although Sun Ling is young in appearance, his cultivation is already in the late stage of Jindan, and he is very easy-going in his speech.
"Congratulations to Mo Daoyou for successfully completing the task, the position of city lord is just around the corner!"
Mo Zhuoyu shook his head again and again, "Sun Daoyou has a good reputation! Not to mention that the results have not yet been revealed, even before Mo, there are many Daoyou who have completed the task, and it is really difficult to determine who the position of the city lord belongs to." ”
Sun Ling smiled when he heard this, "Daoist friend is humble, although the two tasks in front have been completed, but in terms of the difficulty of the task, I am afraid that it is still the most important task of Daoyou!"
The implication is that Mo Zhuoyu's task is both difficult and fast, and the position of the city lord must belong to her.
Mo Zhuoyu understood what he meant, and arched his hand with a smile, but did not answer.
Now that she's done her job, it's not up to her to control what the outcome will be.
However, Mo Zhuoyu's confidence in this is still very strong!
