CH.22 A Treasure is a Mystery

The white-faced cultivator saw the only remaining dilapidated house in the distance, and when he came closer, he saw a pile of ashes stretching into the distance. It all became clear at once.

"Master Cui, this is the evil method of Fang Cai Luo Shengtang. A younger single eyelid practitioner behind him said. Cui Lu said: "Xiao Han, you are right. It's not a simple water walk, it's a spell. ”

"That's right, just when they were fighting, there was a figure in a trance who started a fire trick in his left hand. Another of the four said, a shorter one.

Cui Lu said: "This is why Secretary Zhao recruited us. ”

Li Brown stepped forward and wanted to retrieve the body of Du's father and mother for burial. In the name of the official autopsy, the nurse refused his suggestion.

Li Brown said angrily: "Why do you want to keep the corpses of my relatives in the hands of your irrelevant people?"

The soldier came over to push, and Cui Lu saw this and walked towards Li Brown with a smile.

"Are you looking for me?" asked Cui Lu with a meaningful expression.

Li Brown didn't speak, looked at him, and nodded.

"Since you are from the people around this Jinan Mansion, then let me ask you, among your relatives and friends, did any of them join the army and go to the front ten years ago?"

Li Brown still nodded.

"Dead on the front lines?"

Li Brown still nodded.

Cui Lu said: "Do you know that the war ten years ago was completely wiped out, and there was no one alive?"

Li Brown's eyes widened.

Cui Lu bowed his head to Li Brown's ear and said, "This is a puzzle, I have solved half of it." I need your help. ”

Li Brown was thinking hard about what happened ten years ago, but he didn't seem to be particularly clear in his mind, only remembering his mother's howl and the black lacquered coffin with Li Shi written on it on the chariot, and the twenty taels of silver in the bag.

It turned out that no one survived the war.

Li Brown retracted his thoughts, he vaguely felt that it was not simple, so he asked, "What can I help with?"

Cui Lu pulled Li Brown out of the crowd, and after standing still, he took out a piece of white cooked paper with red handprints and names from his arms. Then he took out a pen and a piece of ink, and pointed at Li Brown.

"Did you bring your own?" asked Li Brown curiously.

Cui Lu smiled: "If the task is needed, these guys have to carry it often." ”

Li Brown wrote his name at the end of the crowd's names, and then pressed a red handprint. He swept his eyes to the first name, and sure enough, the handwriting of that name was very vigorous, and it could only be written by a person with a strong wrist. That person's name is Cui Lu, Li Brown thought to himself, this Cui Lu is the Cui Lord in front of him.

Cui Lu saw Li Brown's eyes glance over his name, although it was only a sweep, but looking at the hidden shape in his eyes, it seemed that he had guessed his identity. In addition to practicing swords, swordsmen also practice their eyes. Swordsmen don't just play with swords, they play with their eyes. This eye cultivation is an advanced stage of swordsman's cultivation. In this way, Cui Lu has a unique experience, and he has trained his eyes to be extremely shrewd. As long as it is paired with his eyes, or looked at by his eyes, he will know what the other party already knows, what news he has obtained, and even what he will do next.

Cui Lu said: "This is a puzzle I sent you." If you have relatives and friends, you won't sit idly by, will you? People, you have to live to understand. There is revenge, there is revenge. ”

Li Brown's heart sank, and he said in frustration: "I know, I also have unavenged grievances, I understand." ”

Cui Lu shook his head and sighed: "It's a blessing to have a clear revenge to be avenged. ”

Li Brown was puzzled, staring directly at the white-faced swordsman in front of him. This person seems to have experienced greater grievances, and looking at his every move, he is a person who has waded through the wind and waves, and in the silence, he sees everything as light and light, but there is a deep obsession behind this light and breeze. Yes, it's obsession. The qi in him is different.

Cui Lu suddenly changed his tone and smiled: "Little brother, this is not in vain. I've got a treasure for you. ”

Li Brown said: "I don't want treasures, I-"

Cui Lu stretched out his hand to interrupt his words, and said mysteriously: "You definitely want it, you don't have to shirk it." ”

Li Brown saw that he was resolute, and it was difficult to refuse.

"Little brother, do you want to put on a dress first?" Cui Lu asked, looking at the shirtless Li Brown.

"Okay, I'll go up the hill and wear it. It turned out that he had come down the mountain with only a few pieces of silver, while his clothes and shoes were still in his baggage.

"I'll be waiting for you at the front. ”

After Cui Lu shouted at Li Brown's back as he went up the mountain, he turned around and went to the tree in front of him and stopped.

After a while, Li Brown wore a royal blue straight jacket and went down the mountain to join Cui Lu.

Cui Lu saw him with a Confucian look on his face and asked, "You don't study? Isn't this the day of the exam?"

Li Brown lowered his head and said, "I'm guilty, I'm not qualified to take the exam." ”

Cui Lu didn't ask anymore, knowing that it was useless to say more. And Li Brown only said that Master Cui in front of him couldn't look down on the first talent, so he was ashamed and didn't say anything all the way.

Entering the city, Cui Lu led Li Brown around and around through one alley after another, and finally stopped in the courtyard of a small alley. He pushed open the courtyard door, the courtyard was clean, and then looked at the hall, there was a black lacquer coffin parked. There was silence in all directions, and Li Brown felt a trace of fear.

Cui Lu walked to the coffin, pushed open the lid of the coffin, and said, "The thieves of the Liao Kingdom fled in the wilderness, but there is no time to collect the corpse." After finishing speaking, he actually lifted the coffin and poured out a shriveled corpse, and Li Brown looked at it fixedly, it was the person he had beaten with his hands.

Li Brown said sadly: "I killed this dog man." ”

Cui Lu smiled, as if he hadn't heard this, and said, "I'll give you his corpse pill to practice, and I can help you forge a good sword!"

Li Brown's eyes widened.

But seeing that Cui Lu's right hand was covered with a dead body, and his left hand moved from the three acupoints of Jizhong, Zigong, and Tiantu to the Quchi acupoint of his right hand, and suddenly, Cui Lu's right hand was like a magnet, and he began to continuously pull the dead corpse. The red clothes on the corpse began to churn, and the chest and abdomen gurgled like a rushing river.

With a blast, a green round pill burst out of the abdomen of the dead body, and the scarlet and green stinky intestines began to show out of the stomach and scattered all over the ground.

Li Brown endured the nausea and tried not to make the vomit gush out.

Cui Lu threw the green round pill to Li Brown.

Li Brown trembled and took it in his hand, only to feel that it was moist and smooth, and there seemed to be no fishy smell, and those fishy smells seemed to be just emitted by corpses.

Cui Lu said: "Put it away, let's get out of here." ”

Li Brown put it in his arms in horror and asked cautiously, "What is this?"

Cui Lu smiled: "Are you afraid? Your enemy is even more terrible than this." ”

Li Brown shook his head and said, "I'm not afraid, you're too worried, I'm just asking what it is." ”

"Corpse pill, the pill that every dead corpse has. It's like a Mr. Record, a faithful record of what you've done in your life, the energy you've gained. Cultivators must take things that kill people. ”
