Chapter 13: The Parting Period: An Unexpected Encounter
Turning the first page of the technique, I saw that there was nothing on the yellowed paper in the white, Tang Xin was not surprised by this, but silently operated the Mojia exercises, and after a while, I saw that two pictures of the mechanism gradually appeared on the blank paper, one was shaped like a leopard, vivid, and the other was a hand, exquisite and exquisite.
Subsequently, under the two pictures, a dense bunch of small characters and lines that split and introduced the two objects were born, and the production flow chart outlined by the two objects, as well as the precautions and how to use them.
Through the introduction of the key techniques of the organs, Tang Xin learned that the inside of each mechanism is accompanied by a carved corresponding magic circle, and there is a groove on the external body of the mechanism, which is connected to the magic circle, and this groove is specially used to hold spirit stones, and this is also the premise of the idea to control all kinds of organs for their own use, that is, there must be spirit stones to provide sufficient energy for the mechanism magic circle.
As for the mechanism to show that he is now a cultivator that can only control two things, one is a trap leopard, a kind of mechanism purely used for walking, and does not have any attack and defense capabilities, and the speed is comparable to that of normal horses, but the control is free to move, which is much more flexible than driving horses.
The other thing is called the Trap Technique, which is a purely offensive mechanism that is easy to use, flexible, and powerful.
Suppressing the ecstasy in his heart, Tang Xin carefully read the key points of the production of the two kinds of mechanism techniques and the techniques of the magic circle carving, and memorized them by heart.
Twenty-nine days have passed since the end of the auction in Yudan City, and at noon on this day, in Xinhui Carpenter's Shop, Tang Xin and the three of them got together again.
Since the three of them got together once on the day of the auction, Rui Wen has not had any contact with the two of them, and as soon as Fang saw Tang Xin today, he found that his realm had improved, and a word of congratulations was naturally indispensable.
After the three of them clinged to each other and muttered quietly for a while, Rui Wen took the lead in getting up and leaving here, hiding his face, driving a carriage straight towards the northeast avenue outside the city, and the endless flow of people gradually moved away.
About half an hour after Rui Wen left, Tang Xin and Xu Wenhui looked at the shop they had lived in for two years with a reluctant face, locked the main entrance, and left Yudan City in the carriage purchased in advance.
Time rewinds back to half an hour ago, when Tang Xin and the three of them were still discussing in the carpenter shop, in the Yudan City Lord's Mansion, Mo Shen was sitting on the main seat, listening to the report of his subordinates.
"Tell the city lord, his subordinates have basically investigated clearly, Tang Xin's original name is Tang Xin'er, and his ancestral home is Wenliu Village, Guzhong City, which belongs to Luoyun Academy, but he lives in Guzhong City all the year round and runs a carpenter's grocery store, which is dedicated to the Gongxi family.
There is a father, the mother died due to dystocia, and there are no other relatives, and the youngest daughter of the Gongxi family in Guzhongcheng has a close relationship with Gongxi Zi'er, who has studied in Luoyun Academy for three years, and is evaluated as missing two of the five elements, with medium qualifications, and is skilled in calculation.
However, after the evaluation, Tang Xin disappeared for two years after returning to Wenliu Village with his father to worship his mother, and there was no trace, Luoyun Academy had also searched for it vigorously, but there was no result, and his subordinates also sent people to Wenliu Village to secretly search, and for the time being, it has not been found out where his father and son have gone in the past two years.
After disappearing for two years, the father and son appeared out of thin air again, wandering around many places, seemingly looking for herbal resources that can be beneficial to cultivation, and his subordinates speculated that Tang Xin should have also become a cultivator in the two years since he disappeared, but which of the six schools he inherited and the name of the exercises he practiced, because he disappeared for two years cannot be checked, and he has not been seen, it is not clear for the time being.
Just over two years ago, his father died of injury and illness due to a bandit, Tang Xin appeared in Yudan City, and thus got acquainted with Xu Wenhui, a cultivator of the sixth layer of the Forgotten Dust Realm.
As for Xu Wenhui, due to the rush of time, his subordinates have not found out any useful information for the time being, only knowing that after he came to Yudan City five years ago, he has not left again, and has been eating and drinking in Yudan City, and has not joined any sect, so he is preliminarily concluded to be a loose cultivator. ”
After the black-clothed spy who was standing at the bottom of his hand reported the results of the investigation in one breath, he raised his head slightly and looked at the city lord above, and then cautiously continued:
However, when the subordinates were following up and investigating Tang Xin, they accidentally found that there was a woman named Rui Wen who had won the Immortal Ascending Order who seemed to have had many dealings with Tang Xin and Xu Wenhui, and before the subordinates came back to report, the three of them gathered in the carpenter shop, and seemed to be discussing something. ”
Hearing that the owner of the Immortal Ascension Order was involved, Mo Shen raised his thick eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "Has this woman done an investigation!"
"In accordance with the advice of the lord of the house, this woman was not investigated, and after the subordinates left one person to watch nearby, they hurried back to tell the lord of the house, waiting for the lord to decide. The spies hurried back.
As soon as the spy finished speaking, he saw another black-clothed spy walk into the hall quickly, clenched his fists and bent down: "Tell the lord of the mansion that half an hour ago, a woman named Rui Wen left Yudan City in a carriage, went out of the north gate, and went in the northeast direction. Before the subordinates came back, Tang Xin and Xu Wenhui also left Yudan City from the south gate and the east gate in a carriage respectively, waiting for the lord to decide. ”
The news brought by the spies made Mo Shen's eyes froze, and his heart turned a thousand times, and he secretly thought to himself: "There is only one day left before entering Wudan Valley, why did this woman leave, did she discover the secret?"
After thinking about it, Mo Shen shook his head again: "It's not very likely, but why did you suddenly give up and leave in a hurry after you worked hard to earn an opportunity?" When Elder Chen left, he specially explained that the owner of the fifteen immortal ascension orders should not make too many moves, so as not to arouse suspicion from those who have intentions, how to deal with it at this time, I don't know what the connection between his departure and Tang Xin's son, and what is the relationship between Tang Xin and Elder Chen?"
Mo Shen retracted his thoughts, feeling a little irritable in his heart, such a big secret in the valley was known to him, and this matter could only be handled beautifully, otherwise not only would the position of the lord of this mansion not be kept, but his own life would probably be difficult to keep.
After thinking about it for a long time, Mo Shen finally made a decision, and said to the two spies standing below: "You two follow Rui Wen to see if this woman really has the intention of leaving, if it is confirmed, take it back as soon as possible, without delay, let alone leak the rumors, let alone let her have any contact with outsiders." ”
The two black-clothed spies clenched their fists and hurriedly left the City Lord's Mansion.
"Someone!" After the two subordinates left, Mo Shen spoke again.
Soon after the words fell, four black-clothed subordinates appeared in the hall in unison, bending down and waiting.
Mo Shen waved his hand, and the two scrolls rolled down at the feet of the four people, only to hear Mo Shen say: "The two people in the scroll, you follow in pairs, record where they have been, who they have seen, and what they have done. ”
Three days later, a carriage was moving along a forest path without hurry, and the old brown horse was panting heavily, apparently having galloped a long way before, and at this time slowed down, resting as he walked, recovering his strength.
The lush trees on both sides of the road, with lush branches and tall trunks, extend to the opposite side of the road, blocking the scorching midday sun, and some of the sunlight swaying through the gaps between the leaves on the straight path, showing long or round dots, swaying with the gentle breeze, learning the appearance of the leaves.
On the carriage, Tang Xin, who had been galloping for three days, was dressed in a cyan robe, holding the reins in his left hand and a horsewhip in his right hand, leaning on the wooden sill on the edge of the carriage and resting with his eyes closed.
Nothing happened on his side in the past three days, presumably the two of them should have escaped from the range of Yudan City, Tang Xin thought.
For the three of them to successfully escape this time, Tang Xin is still relatively confident, although this matter seems to be dangerous but not complicated and difficult to solve, according to the three of them many times, the matter of the medicine is too vicious, basically ruling out that Wudan Valley will send people to monitor the fifteen owners of the Immortal Ascension Order and arouse the suspicion of people on the way, after all, the Ascension Order itself is already the best surveillance, plus Xu Wenhui successfully broke the restriction of the Nine Palace Lock, it is difficult to escape.
However, if Tang Xin knew that just because of his appearance at the auction, not only would he and Xu Wenhui be in a state of being followed, but also Rui Wen would be limited to the situation of death, I don't know if he would spurt out a mouthful of old blood and scold God for making this joke too big.
Tang Xin, who had settled down, immediately separated a wisp of divine consciousness and floated into his storage bag, looking at the hundreds of taels of silver and gold and more than fifty spirit stones lying in the bag, four yellow-rank middle-grade magic weapons and one yellow-rank high-grade magic weapon, his heart was full of excitement and joy.
I don't know how many times Tang Xin's divine sense has drilled into his storage bag, since the three of them divided Chang Hu's belongings equally at the end of the auction that day, Tang Xin has been in a state of extreme excitement, and at least every day he has to drill into the storage bag to look at the magic weapon he got three or five times, and then take it out and touch it three or five times, for which he was ridiculed and blinded by Xu Wenhui, but Tang Xin completely ignored the past.
For the division of the remaining "stolen goods", Tang Xin and Xu Wenhui originally strongly suggested that the three of them should be divided equally, but because of the accident of the Immortal Ascension Order, most of the spirit stones were used, and for the remaining magic weapons and other items, Rui Wen insisted on not accepting them, and only took some gold and silver, and the others were divided equally between Tang Xin and Xu Wenhui.
Rui Wen, who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside, makes Tang Xin suddenly feel that this immortal cultivation world is not as cold and cruel as the legend says.
Just when Tang Xin was wandering out of the world, the sound of hurried horse's hooves pulled Tang Xin, whose thoughts were flying, back to reality.
Tang Xin opened his half-squinted eyes, and saw that there were six horses galloping in his direction not far in front of the carriage, but unexpectedly, after a group of strangers riding high-headed horses came to Tang Xin's side, they did not rush over, but actually restrained the horses and faintly surrounded Tang Xin.
After discovering that these six people were all cultivators, Tang Xin's first thought was "kill people and sell goods!"
But then Tang Xin vetoed his own speculation, not to mention that in broad daylight, there are occasional passers-by coming and going, and killing people and goods is not so rampant, not to mention that looking at the uniform standard and color dress on several people, it must also be from a certain family, the big family takes reputation very seriously, and the act of killing people and selling goods rarely happens, at least it will not be so blatant.
Thinking of this, Tang Xin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, stopped the old horse, sat down on the carriage, and waited for the intentions of this group of people.
