Chapter 148: Hermit
At the same time, Ji Nineteen was rummaging for something in the secret room of a large hall, this hall was majestic and tall, the main hall was spacious, and its shape should be a place for family discussions. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Such a place is of course the focus of Ji Nineteen's search, and it didn't take long to find a mechanism on the armrest of the seat on the main seat, and after twisting the mechanism, a wall behind the main hall chirped and removed a hole several feet wide, and he floated in without hesitation.
This is a neat tunnel that extends downward, the tunnel can walk three people side by side at the same time, it is spacious, there is a palace lamp hanging in the upper part of the stone wall every other zhang, and there is a drainage ditch dug on the side of the tunnel.
After going down dozens of zhang, the stone chambers on both sides of the tunnel are densely packed, some store food, some rooms store firewood, and some places pile up clothes, as if it is a place of refuge, but there are also futons in those relatively prosperous stone rooms, which are obviously used as cultivation places.
Sure enough, in a few rooms in the inner room, I found a few small cultivators on the third or fourth floor of Qi refining, these people have half-grown children, there are old men with white hair, there are also handsome young people in the prime of life, and there is a beautiful woman in gorgeous clothes, judging by her gorgeous appearance without losing her majesty, she must be a person who has been in a high position for a long time.
Just as Ji Nineteen was about to try to restrain the beautiful woman from torturing some information, a faint but agile transmission note quietly shot towards him. This kind of transmission note is used in pairs, and it is expensive, and not many people use it. The principle of its use is that two mothers that can sense each other within a radius of hundreds of miles are carried by two people, and then dozens of talismans for actual sound transmission are made on the basis of this matrix to communicate with each other. After these matching sound transmission talismans are used, this pair of mothers will be correspondingly ineffective, and they can be regarded as a high-priced consumer product. And this kind of dim and agile transmission notes are more expensive than those bright transmission notes, and the two of them have a pair, but they rarely use them.
Since Huang Dingtian did not make a whistling sound as agreed, let alone use an ordinary transmission note, this means that the matter is more urgent, and it needs to be concealed when sending out transmission notes.
With a move of Ji Nineteen's right hand, this transmission note entered his palm, and as soon as the mana was activated, Huang Dingtian's voice sounded in his ears.
"Well, in this case, there is no need to arrest the little repairs here and torture them one by one. It is best to go directly to the bamboo forest. Ji Nineteen instantly took a good idea, quietly retreated to the main hall, closed the door and went invisible, as if he had never appeared.
One of the mental methods he used at this time was a hidden technique realized by a turtle clan from an inconspicuous turtle board of the old turtle. Although it is not very magical, he can easily avoid the detection of fellow monks, but unfortunately he is not very proficient in using it.
This operation is just to try to use, and I don't know how effective it is, but no one in this mansion has been able to find his whereabouts, not even those wild cats and hounds.
Bypassing several courtyards, he came to the cross-courtyard on the periphery of the bamboo forest, and Ji Shijiu saw at a glance that these courtyards were unusual. Such a prosperous mansion, full of carved beams and paintings, made of splendor, extravagant, only this small piece of dilapidated, in disrepair, there are very few people, but in the dilapidation is not decorated, not even a cobweb can be found, the room is also spotlessly cleaned.
From these phenomena, it is not difficult to see that this is a relatively important place, and it is often taken care of, but for some reason it is not willing to attract too many people's attention.
There is such a place in the Haiqing Mansion deep in the courtyard, which can really make Ji Nineteen and these monks contact something.
The weirdest thing is, of course, the large bamboo forest swaying in the night wind. Under the shroud of divine consciousness, of course, the original form was completely exposed, but with Huang Dingtian's transmission note to inform the reason, he did not easily approach the bamboo forest, let alone use his divine sense to probe the inside of the bamboo forest, but only sniffed the outside slightly to determine its scale.
He had come from hiding and had not alarmed the visitors who had been hiding from the rooftops of the nearby buildings, and both parties were paying close attention to the faint wooden building in the bamboo forest. Guarded by a dense bamboo forest, they could not use their divine sense to investigate, and the two of them could only wait for the people inside to make a noise to determine what was going on inside.
。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。
At this time, Huang Dingtian was pretending to be relaxed, sitting at the coffee table in the living room on the second floor of an ordinary wooden building, using tea. On the main seat, there is an old man with silver-white hair combed meticulously and wearing an off-white linen robe, this old man's aura is not weaker than Huang Dingtian, and he should have always been a monk in the late stage of foundation building.
The old man sat on a young woman, with a goose yellow gauze coat and body, two horn braids on her hair, a broad forehead, bright and bright teeth, red lips and a nose, plump cheeks with some baby fat, her breath was weaker than that of the old man, and she was also respectful to the old man, and took the initiative to take on the matter of serving tea and pouring water, but she was really a monk in the early stage of foundation building.
This made Huang Dingtian extremely shocked in his heart, this Haiqing Mansion actually quietly cultivated two foundation building period monks without entering the system, this strength should be able to rank among the ordinary immortal cultivation families, how come it has not been obvious at all for so many years.
Well, it's probably because it's in Haitian City, and the other major cities have more or less branches like Phantom Cloud City, which can monitor the entry and exit of monks in the city nearby, and the immortal cultivation families everywhere are even more rare to gain a foothold in the downtown area, at least the existence of Haiqing Mansion is the first time he has encountered it.
It seems that if you want to gain something this time, you will have to do something with your hands.
After taking a sip of tea, the old man raised his eyes and asked, "Where is Daoyou Xianxiang, and why are you visiting Haitian City?"
The old man's face was cold, his eyes were blazing, although he was simple and abnormal, there was a trace of majesty between his hands and feet, and he thought that he was a person who had been in a high position for a long time.
"Hehe, Huang came from Shangjing, passed through Haiqing Mansion and saw this bamboo forest treacherous, curious to find out, I didn't want to disturb Daoyou Qingxiu, guilty of sin. Although Huang Dingtian is not afraid of the two, he still feels that he is at a loss, and he is much easier to deal with in the case of the other party's majestic atmosphere, pretending to make amends, and delaying time, which is equivalent to the arrival of Ji Nineteen in the later stage of foundation building, and it is much easier to deal with the situation of two against two.
"Hmph, I think it's fake to pass by, and it's true that there is a plan. During the day, you and your companions went to the Hai Ba Zhen Restaurant across the street, and it is unknown what kind of dirty deal you did with them. The woman covered in goose yellow gauze choked unceremoniously.
The smell of gunpowder is strong, similar to the hatred of the sea Bazhen Restaurant.
"Well, why did I wait until Hai Bazhen to eat? It seems that this city is unusual, and there may be someone watching you from the beginning of entering the city." Huang Dingtian only glanced at the woman with his spare eyes, and drank his tea indifferently, without the slightest intention of arguing with the other party.
"E'er is rude, this zodiac friend must have been famous for a long time The delicious taste of the Bazhen Restaurant in the sea, and he went straight to the restaurant to enjoy it before entering the city. After the old man reprimanded the goose-yellow gauze woman who glared at Huang Dingtian angrily, he added. Look at Huang Dingtian again.
"Hehe, what Daoyou guessed is true, it's true. Huang Dingtian replied slowly, looking like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water.
"Then how about asking Huang Daoyou to invite your companions to talk about it? There are noble friends who come from afar, and the Beichen family is not hospitable, but they are smiling. The old man said nonchalantly.
"Hmph, grandpa, don't be polite to this shady thief, take him down first, and then it's not too late to deal with his companion. The woman was eyeing her to get up and take action.
And Huang Dingtian didn't even look at him, but slowly replied to the old man's words: "It's not impossible for Beichen Daoist to invite my companion to talk about it, but there are a lot of doubts below, I wonder if Beichen Daoist is willing to give advice?"
The action of the woman in the goose yellow gauze had already been stopped under the old man's gaze, and she sat down again with hatred, and sucked the tea in the teacup fiercely, making a loud sound.
"Although Huang Daoyou has come, the old man knows everything and says everything. The old man stroked the silver silk and said warmly.
He has a large array of bamboo forests to protect the small building, occupying the best geographical advantages, one person is here as a guest, it is really a turtle in the urn, and the other person is not afraid to wander outside. As for what these two people have to do with that Hai Bazhen Restaurant, he doesn't think so. If there is anything to do with it, all the forces have long been entangled with Haiqing Mansion, and it is necessary to send these two people who are not familiar with the place to explore the way at night.
I have to say that Jiang is an old drip spicy, although he can't guess all the intentions of the two, but he won't be confused by appearances.
"Well said, well said. The first question to ask is whether the Beichen family of Haiqing Mansion is from Daqi Shangjing?" Huang Dingtian first wanted to find out if the person in front of him was the descendant of the person he was looking for, if it was occupied by a dove and the magpie's nest, he would have to kill the killer to have a small harvest, and he also had to weigh the gains and losses; if it was his descendants, it would not be easy for one family to pass down two monks in the foundation building period, and the resources would not know how much they would consume, and they would have to be considered slowly, and it would be considered as whether this deal was cost-effective. In short, this extremely poorly prepared operation made it difficult for him to ride the tiger. But since he came, he always had to find out some reasons and make plans again, at least he still thought about the thief now, so why should he scrape some oil and water before he was willing.
"Haha, Huang Daoyou's eyes are like torches, and I am dissatisfied with Daoyou, my Haitian City Haiqing Mansion Beichen family ancestor is a cultivator in Shangjing. The old man laughed, and replied loudly with great pride.
"Disrespectful, disrespectful, sure enough, it's a side branch of the royal family. The second question is whether Haiqing Mansion has a grudge against Haibazhen Restaurant?" Huang Dingtian continued to ask without changing his face. As for whether the disrespectful words without any emotion come from the heart, only God knows.
"That's it. There is no possibility of feud between Haiqing Mansion and Haibazhen Restaurant, otherwise it would not be possible to be safe and quiet for so many years in the same city and on the same street. The old man smiled and replied without saying anything.
"Why is this? Miss Beichen just guessed that there was some collusion with the Haibazhen Restaurant opposite. How can this be explained?" Huang Dingtian asked with a pretended to be surprised, and squinted his eyes at the goose-yellow woman in the yellow gauze who was dealing with the tea.
"The actions of the grandfather and grandson are not on the same channel, is there anything else hidden?" He muttered to himself.
"Hehe, this, aren't Huang Daoyou and your friend here for that thing?" The old man has been holding the shelf, just afraid that these two people are also here for that matter, and now since he found out from the other party's words that he was not conspiring with Hai Bazhen on the other side, he simply told this person about that matter, and saw that he could not take the bait. There is no monk in the world who is not greedy, and with the intervention of a third-party force, the previous balance can be broken, and the guy from the Haibazhen Restaurant can still drink a pot.
"What's the matter?" Huang Dingtian was even more puzzled, there was really a hidden secret, why didn't Ji Nineteen that kid come for so long. In fact, he is a little curious now, and he is also a little good.
"Hehe, that's right. The thousand-year-old man went to sea with the merchant ship of his family and accidentally found a mysterious place, in which a sea flame beast was about to give birth, and he planned to wait for it to give birth to a young beast, and then gather the monks in the family to catch it. I knew that after returning, the next person revealed the news, and the people in the Haibazhen Restaurant on the opposite side insisted on inserting a bar, and of course I was unwilling to do so. There have been some recent minor contradictions, so that E'er misunderstood that Huang Daoyou and his friends were the helpers invited by the other party. The old man talked eloquently, looking like he knew everything.
"Hmm, if it's really that sea flame beast, are you right?" Huang Dingtian's interest was instantly aroused by the other party. I have to let him pay attention, this sea flame beast is not a simple demon beast. This is one of the few monsters that have survived in ancient times that are extremely easy to domesticate, and this monster beast can also soar through the clouds, but it is a good mount, and it can also master a kind of flame flame when it becomes an adult, which is a mobile furnace for refining pills and even refining weapons necessary for home travel.
The value is so great that it is not something that tens of thousands of spirit stones can be estimated, if you have one, your strength will definitely rise.
The old man was very satisfied with the other party's reaction, his face straightened, and he said solemnly: "There will be no mistake, the Haiyan beast mother beast is indeed waiting to give birth in the nest. ”
"This, can Beichen Daoist give up the young beast of the Sea Flame Beast?" Huang Dingtian asked with a slanted squint with his eyes shining.
"Hehe, if Huang Daoyouji and your friend are willing to capture it with Haiqing Mansion, and compensate me for a large amount of spirit stones in Haiqing Mansion after success, why not. The old man generously agreed.
"Grandpa, how can you agree to this person casually, E'er has long wanted to have a substitute mount. The goose-yellow gauze woman put down the tea cup that had already been drained two or three times, pouted and said unhappily.
"E'er, that Sea Flame Beast is not the best mount, but it is only sought after for its wide range of uses. If you want to mount, it is more cost-effective to wait for the spirit stones in the house to be abundant and go to Beast Roar Island. The old man gently persuaded him.
At this moment, the middle-aged shopkeeper hiding on the roof suddenly murmured: "If there is really a trace of this beast, don't miss the opportunity and don't miss it." ”
He had a fluctuation here, a small hard-shelled black worm in the folds of his clothes in the hem of the yellow top world sitting at the coffee table also fluctuated slightly, and then he clung to the thread at the seam of the clothes and hibernated, no longer making any movements.
The three people in the room didn't notice it at all.
