Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Arrival of the Immortals (After Ten O'Clock)
Xiao Ziyang thought about it quietly.
Since the treasure house of the Wen family can have such a collection of Taoist books, then it is certain that the Wen family has a connection with the immortal cultivation world. However, since the Wen family has a connection with the immortal cultivation world, why is it restless by a red silk guest?
There are two possibilities, one is that the ancestors of the Wen family had contacts with the world of cultivating immortals, but now this connection has been severed; and the second is that the Wen family is now in contact with the world of cultivating immortals, but the cost of inviting immortal cultivators is too great, or the opportunity to invite immortal cultivators is limited, and the Wen family is unwilling to spend such a price for a woman, or waste a rare opportunity.
If it is the first case, it is naturally easy to say, but if it is the second case, does he give the Wen family enough sense of crisis to make them spend a great deal of money or use the cherished opportunity to invite immortal cultivators?
Xiao Ziyang thought about it and got the answer yes. He asked for 800,000 taels of silver when he opened his mouth, which was enough to hurt the vitality of the Wen family.
What's more important is that Wen Jiaen will take revenge and have already offended himself to death, so in the Wen family's mind, the 800,000 taels of silver is likely to be just the beginning, if so, then the disaster of the Wen family is in sight.
If the Wen family could really ask the immortal cultivators to help, why would they still transfer silver taels everywhere? The 300,000 taels in the wooden box that the Wen family's father and son had just sent to the treasure house should have been used to hand them over.
There are two possibilities for this. The Wen family couldn't be sure if the immortal cultivator would come, or if the immortal cultivator couldn't come within five days, so the Wen family planned to hand over the silver to themselves first, and when the immortal cultivator arrived, they could naturally kill themselves and regain the money.
If this is the case, isn't the Wen family afraid that he will really leave after taking the money? This will undoubtedly make the immortal cultivator run away in vain, and also make the Wen family pay the price in vain.
Thinking of this, Xiao Ziyang moved his gaze to the box that the Wen family's father and son had just sent in, that's right! Jade pendant! That jade pendant should be a magic weapon, a magic weapon that can be found by immortal cultivators no matter where it falls!
The Wen family's plan gradually became clear in Xiao Ziyang's mind at this time.
They must have given themselves a part of the silver on the top of this jade pendant, which was regarded as a treasure, and if they took it themselves, no matter where they went, they would be found by the immortal cultivators invited by the Wen family!
So is there also a tracking spell on this "Preliminary Solution of the Five Elements Dao Technique"?
First of all, the Wen family does not have the ability of an unpredictable prophet to know that this book will be stolen, and secondly, the Wen family cannot easily ask immortal cultivators to do things, and there is no fluctuation on this book that Xiao Ziyang is familiar with, so there is a possibility that this book does not have a tracking spell.
Xiao Ziyang opened his eyes and looked at the Taoist book in his hand, and said to himself: "Eighty percent possible, it's worth the risk!" After speaking, he put the book into his arms without hesitation.
Then, Xiao Ziyang opened the other two boxes, one of these two boxes contained a small bronze round mirror, the size of this round mirror was just enough to hold in his hand, and there was a circular protruding platform in the center of the back of the round mirror, the platform was engraved with intricate patterns, and when he held the round mirror in his hand, the boss was just against the palm of his hand.
There is also a thin album pressed under the bronze mirror. Xiao Ziyang flipped through the album and let out a long breath. This bronze mirror is also a magic weapon!
This magic weapon is called the Inheritance Treasure Book, and it is a magic weapon that tests whether mortals have the cultivation of immortal spirit roots.
The other chest contained twenty or so strange stones, all the size of pigeon's eggs, and not very regularly round. The surface of the stone is rough, but there is a faint flow of fluorescence in these stones, which is divided into five colors: pale gold, emerald green, dark blue, fiery red, and earthy yellow.
These stones are spirit stones, which are extremely useful to monks, and are almost the common currency used by monks when trading.
Xiao Ziyang took out the silk wrapped in jade in the other boxes and tore it into three pieces, wrapped the inheritance treasure, spirit stone, and "Five Elements Dao Technique Preliminary Explanation" and "Xishan Collection" respectively, put them into the box containing the purple gold treasure, carried the box on his back with the cloth bag that had been prepared a long time ago, and left the secret room.
Coming to the second floor of the warehouse, Xiao Ziyang flew on the beam, and with a slight break, he made a big hole in the iron fence of the roof and gently pulled out the tiles. After a while, Xiao Ziyang flew onto the roof.
Xiao Ziyang, who rushed to the roof, was frightened by a streamer that flashed out of the corner of his eye, and his true qi was impure, and he almost fell!
This streamer is exactly the same as the treasure light that Xiao Ziyang saw in Shangling Mountain, when the Qingyang Sect Daoist came by flying boat, but the color was slightly different.
Xiao Ziyang took a deep breath and rushed out like an arrow from the string, he didn't dare to fly over the treetops on the roof, only under the shadow of the house, or in the canopy of the trees, he flew away in the opposite direction of the streamer.
Out of the Wen Mansion, Xiao Ziyang followed the shadow of the house, ran in a big circle, and returned to the inn. He covered the cloth bag with a quilt, and immediately went out of the inn, and came to a roof forty or fifty feet away from the inn and lurked under it.
He quickly changed his appearance and did not move.
Not to mention that Xiao Ziyang is so careful.
In the Wenfu, the hall of the main house was brightly lit, and the clerk was walking back and forth in the hall, looking at the door frequently, and seemed to be very anxious.
On both sides of the hall sat four people, one of whom was the third son of Wen, and three others, one of whom was old and had a white beard, and the other two were slightly younger than the clerk, and their appearance was three points similar to that of the clerk, and they were also dressed as squires.
The old man with white hair was the uncle of the clerk, and the other two were the younger brothers of the clerk.
These three people are all the core people in charge of the Wen family, and they also frequently look at the door, as if they are waiting for someone.
Suddenly, the five people were startled at the same time, and I don't know when in the hall, suddenly there was one more person, this person was dressed as a Taoist priest, wearing a white jade crown, wearing a Ming zodiac robe, holding a dust, about thirty years old, his face was as white as jade, and he was extremely handsome.
When the clerk saw this person outside, he knelt on the ground with a puff, "I've seen Yuzhen Immortal Master, ask Immortal Master to save my family." When the other four saw that the clerk was like this, they didn't know who it was, and they all fell to their knees.
The white-faced Taoist priest waved his hand and said: "Master Wen doesn't need to be polite, what kind of disasters have happened to your family, let's listen to it, and also, why didn't you bring the talisman jade pendant I gave you, so that I can find it." ”
The clerk stood up and respectfully invited the Taoist priest to the throne, and then said respectfully: "The talisman jade pendant given by the immortal master does not dare to be brought on his body, and he is placed in the shrine every day to worship day and night, but at this time, the jade pendant is not ...... in the shrine." Alas, it's a long story, and it's also the little old man who was blinded by lard...... "Then the clerk told the Taoist priest the whole story, and he didn't dare to tell half a lie."
