Chapter 16: The Hidden Hand

"Look again, look again, you will definitely find it, you will definitely find it......"

"Huh?"

Lin Gu suddenly heard someone in the grass not far away, muttering something in pieces.

As soon as he rolled over, he hid behind a big tree that was unknown how many years old, and quietly watched the scene in front of him.

Lin Gu, who was hiding behind the tree, couldn't help but think of the night when he confronted Chu Liuyun, and silently calculated, the time for the first attack of the Yin and Yang Reversal Pill was approaching, if Chu Liuyun didn't send him the pill, he could only think of a way by himself.

"How could it not be, I have searched all over the other places, and this place is left, it shouldn't be wrong. ”

In the clear moonlight, Lin Gu saw a man in a white robe like him, looking for something back and forth in the grass in the distance with his head down.

That person Lin Gu had never seen before, but the icons on the chest and cuffs of his clothes were clearly the marks of the grinding place of the new disciples.

"Could it be the grinding? Lin Gu remembered that the little abacus said that the grinding of new disciples is divided into new entry and grinding, and the new entry is all disciples who have not entered the first phase of condensation, and the grinding place is different, the lowest there are people who enter the first phase of condensation, but the highest will not exceed the third stage of condensation, otherwise, they would have gone to the outer gate a long time ago.

"It's obviously lost here, how can it be ......" The man was so anxious that he scratched his head, and his originally neatly combed hair was scratched and scattered.

From the fluctuations of the aura on his body, it can be seen that he is a guy in the first phase of condensation, Lin Gu speculated that this person should be a disciple of the previous session, one year lower than Zheng Ji and the others.

Lin Gu was reluctant to move, if he was accidentally discovered, he would definitely be misunderstood that he had stolen or picked up his treasure, at that time he was really dumb and ate Coptis chinensis, and it was difficult to speak, although Lin Gu was also in the first phase of condensation, practicing alternative exercises, he felt that if he really wanted to fight, he should not suffer, but he did not dare to guarantee it, and if it was time to attract other people, that person would have a deep foundation in this place, and it was himself who suffered.

Another reason was that he really wanted to see what the other party was looking for.

The man searched the place for a few hours and two times, and finally left dejectedly.

After the man left, Lin Gu stayed behind the tree for more than an hour before he planned to leave.

"Squeak~"

As soon as he took a step, Lin Gu felt that he had stepped on something.

............

Back in the dormitory, closing the doors and windows, lighting a kerosene lamp, he gently placed a black strap on the table.

Slowly unwrapping the knot tied to the mouth of the bag, and suddenly, the whole room suddenly lit up. Lin Gu was a little stunned by those things, and pressed the mouth of the bag shut, and only the faint yellow light of the kerosene lamp was left in the room again.

"What...... It seems to be ...... Spirit Block. Lin Gu thought about it for a while, and took out the spirit block from his pocket that he had received from Senior Brother Sun during the day today.

The spirit block in his hand emitted a faint light in this dark room, not much stronger than a kerosene lamp, compared with the contents of the bag, it was too much worse, for a while, Lin Gu did not open the black bag again, touched his chin and pondered.

"The spirit block is not so bright, that thing seems to be much brighter than the spirit block just now, the light is brighter, what is it, it is brighter than the spirit block, could it be...... Spirit Stone. Lin Gu suddenly realized.

Glancing back at the door and window, he walked over to it, looked around to make sure that no one was outside, and then returned to the table.

This time, Lin Gu just opened a small opening in the bag, and through this small hole, he could clearly see everything inside.

Four oblate round, slightly convex in the middle, with smooth edges, the size of a child's palm, shiny things, stacked intricately, and a few scattered spirit blocks in the gaps.

"This is the spirit stone. Lin Gu stared at the inside of the bag with wide eyes with some excitement.

Lin Gu stretched out his index finger and gently pressed it on the center of the convex spirit stone, this thing is hard and hard, there is no touch, except for shiny, there seems to be nothing strange about it, the texture is similar to the ceramics at home.

Suddenly, Lin Gu Zheng, he felt that the cold cyclone that had been hidden in his body suddenly spun rapidly, using his fingers as a bridge, from the other end of the spirit stone, streams of white qi poured into his body along his arm, and finally became a part of the cold cyclone.

It was only for a while, Lin Gu felt that since he had reached the first stage of Qi Condensation, he had not had increased his cultivation for almost a long time, and he had actually risen miraculously.

Closing the bag, Lin Gu closed his eyes, this thing is good, but whether to keep it or not is another matter?

A full four spirit stones plus six spirit blocks, Lin Gu knew very well, if it was in the outer gate, it might be reasonable, but if it was here, if you think about it, you will know that one spirit block per month, at least twelve spirit blocks can be exchanged for a spirit stone, and if you can take out such finances, the new disciples can definitely be said to be a hegemonic existence, and even the people involved in it are probably not one or two.

But on the other hand, if he can keep these things for himself, Lin Gu is confident that with these few things, he can definitely break through the second phase of condensation directly, after all, even if the qualifications are poor, but this is also something that can only be saved after five or six years of accumulation.

For a while, Lin Gu was a little unsure of what to do, that thing was now like a millet taken out of the fire, which could be eaten...... But it burns the mouth.

............

"Squeak!" the door to Lin Gu's residence was opened.

"Hey...... Lin Gu, what are you doing?" asked the small abacus on the other side towards Lin Gu.

"Go to work!"

"Haven't you heard that today, that kid Zheng Ji, for some reason, gave all of us a day off. ”

"Holiday?" Lin Gu chuckled in his heart.

"If you say that he is true or false, you are not afraid that people from the outside door will question him when the time comes. The little abacus touched the mustache and considered.

Lin Gu looked at the other houses again, and after confirming the matter, he turned around and closed the door, leaving Xiao Abacus alone to frighten and think.

Lin Gu, who returned to the house, sat quietly on the bed and cultivated as if nothing had happened.

............

"Everybody come out for me!"

Zheng Ji stood in the middle of the entire alley and shouted loudly. Even the disciples at the grinding place had some open the window and secretly glanced at it.

Xiao Abacus ran behind Lin Gu with some fear, and somehow, he always felt that being with Lin Gu was much safer than others.

"I lost something yesterday, I searched for a long time, and I found nothing, I hope you will give me a face, let me wait to check it. Zheng Ji shook the horizontal flesh on his face, although he said it very politely, but the undoubted color in that tone was extremely revealed.

"He even came. The little abacus hid behind Lin Gu and said in surprise.

"Lin Gu, look at the person next to Zheng Ji. The little abacus smashed it behind him, and Lin Gu said softly.

The man was tall, with a white face, standing side by side with Zheng Ji, dressed in a gray and white robe like him, with an expressionless face, and five spider-like fingers tapping his thighs in a slight rhythm.

And behind Zheng Jihe and the man, Lin Gu saw the man who was looking for the baby in the grass last night, the man's face was blue and purple, and he was held in the air by two men, one white and one black, and he knew at a glance that he was disabled.

There were several extremely arrogant people standing behind the white and black people, and one of them was Xu Ka, whom Lin Gu and Xiao Abacus happened to meet yesterday.
