In the evening, a manor more than 30 miles southwest of Chang'an City shouted to kill the sky, and the flames rushed into the sky.

The attack was sudden, and a group of killers from the Secret Moon Demon Sect who participated in the assassination of Li Shimin had just returned to the manor from various sources, and before they had time to rest and heal their injuries, Tang Xuesheng, Ye Fashan, Li Jing and others came to cover the attack.

As the mastermind, Wang Shishi was found by Gao Shan Song and killed on the spot, and the demon girl Dharma King, who had just sneaked back to the manor and was recuperating shortly after, was also killed by Li Yifeng, Murong Xiaobai and Tulip. Almost none of the other elites of the Secret Moon Demon Sect slipped through the net, and they committed suicide one after another.

Immediately followed by the 1,000 Xuanjia iron cavalry commanded by Yu Chi Gong rushed into the manor like a thunderbolt, and began to sweep in a carpet manner, as long as he saw Zhuang Ding with a blade in his hand, he didn't fight, and waved his head to the ground. As for the ordinary women and children, they were all driven to a large house and imprisoned, waiting for their identities to be disposed of.

In this way, a secret stronghold that Wang Shichong painstakingly operated outside Chang'an City collapsed and disappeared in an instant.

Tang Xueshang and the others did not evacuate immediately, but launched a search throughout the manor, never letting go of a single fish that slipped through the net.

Diao Xiaosi volunteered to join the search operation. The injuries on his body have not healed, and he does not have the consciousness of Zhang Wuji who is seriously injured and cannot get out of the line of fire. When everyone was encircling and suppressing the killer of the Secret Moon Demon Sect, he hid in the battle formation of the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry and watched the fire from the other side, and waited until the dust settled before pacing slowly into the manor.

It's just that everyone else is going all out to search for the killer, while Diao Xiaosi is observing the terrain everywhere and studying where to discover possible treasures.

This large manor named "Yunyan Villa" was originally the private property of a former Sui minister, and later the bad luck of the family was disposed of and sold, and it fell into the hands of Wang Shichong in a circle, becoming a hidden stake he planted outside Chang'an City. No one could have imagined that a large number of Secret Moon Demon Sect killers would dare to sleep soundly next to Li Yuan's couch in such a grand manner.

Calligraphy and painting antiques, jewelry and jade...... Diao Xiaosi was busy everywhere without sleep or food, and what dark room secret doors and mechanism ambushes were all pieces of cake, and in just over half an hour, he broke into the Buddhist hall in the back garden of the master's house.

Originally, there were two monks in charge of this Buddhist hall, and both of them died in the scuffle. There were still traces of blood spilled from the fight on the ground, and a small group of Xuanjia Iron Riders were ordered to search back and forth around the Buddhist hall.

Diao Xiaosi didn't care what Xuanjia Tieqi was doing, and walked into the Buddhist hall with his hand. The Buddha hall is not large, ten zhang square before and after, and there is a gilded Buddha statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva enshrined in it.

Diao Xiaosi glanced at it, even if he lost interest, only a thin layer of gold leaf, scraped off, I am afraid that it will not be two or two, it can be seen that the old owner of this manor is not necessarily very devout to the Buddha, otherwise why would he be reluctant to take out a pure gold Buddha statue even though he has a lot of money? But the lotus platform that the Bodhisattva stepped on under his feet looked very good, beautiful and meticulous, the shape was realistic and lifelike, and even the pattern around the lotus seat was carefully hand-painted by the painter with a pen mixed with purple gold sand, shining in the sunset. But for Diao Xiaosi, no matter how beautiful this thing is, it can't be eaten as a meal, so let's see if there are other genuine things.

It's a pity that in the Buddha hall, except for the gilded statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva, there are no valuable treasures. Either it is the wooden fish scripture used by the monks, or the offering incense burner on the table, which are all ordinary things that are not worth two dollars.

Diao Xiaosi couldn't help but feel disappointed, and said while walking out: "Ge Laozi, they all say that poor temples are rich monks, it seems that there is some truth in this." ”

However, when his left foot was about to step out of the threshold of the Buddha Hall, he suddenly paused in the air, and a flash of inspiration appeared in his mind: "No, there is something strange in this Buddha Hall!"

He searched all the way, and saw that the furnishings and decorations in the manor's owner's house were extremely luxurious, and this Buddhist hall seemed a little too simple in comparison.

- There must be something strange about the difference, could it be that someone is deliberately trying to hide something?

Diao Xiaosi's eyes sparkled, and he retreated back into the Buddhist hall step by step, turning around the gilded statue of Guanyin, and his eyes never left the lotus platform.

Finally, he could be 100% sure that the fine patterns on the lotus platform were by no means ordinary graffiti, but a mysterious and profound Seal Mountain Town Vein Talisman Array.

Although Diao Xiaosi couldn't name this talisman array, it was very strange that it would appear in the Buddha Hall.

He stretched his spiritual sense, trying to see what mystery was hidden under the lotus platform. Unexpectedly, as soon as the spiritual consciousness touched the lotus platform, it was as if he had hit the copper wall headlong, and was violently bounced back by an inexplicable invisible force.

Diao Xiaosi Lingtai was shocked, and he felt a sharp pain in his brain, as if he had inserted an awl into it, so he was so frightened that he hurriedly collected his spiritual sense, hugged Yuan Shouyi to adjust his luck, and it took a while to recover.

He was not surprised but rejoiced, and became more and more convinced that there must be a priceless treasure buried under the lotus platform, and even rich and rival the country, so he stared at the gilded Buddha statue of Guanyin and repeatedly searched for it.

Who knew that he had been pondering for a long time, but he still couldn't find the news of the mechanism used to open the lotus platform.

Diao Xiaosi couldn't help but be a little annoyed, raised his foot and kicked on the lotus platform and scolded: "Niang Xipi, I don't believe that I can't break you!"

"Bang!" the entire Guanyin gilded Buddha statue was kicked and shaken, and a colorful and eerie aura poured out from the gap between the base and the ground.

Diao Xiaosi was stunned, and he felt very familiar with the breath that came out, and at the same time understood that there was no opening mechanism at all, and he was thinking about things complicated.

He stretched out a hand and pressed it on the lotus platform, and carefully pushed out the strength of his palm.

The gilded Buddha statue of Guanyin silently shifted backwards under the drive of the palm, suddenly revealing an irregular pit mouth with a diameter of more than two feet, and a cloud of colorful rags mixed with a variety of completely different breaths erupted from the dark underground, almost overturning Diao Xiaosi.

"The immortals are slabby, and daring is the entrance to the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum!" Diao Xiaosi was disappointed, and only the grandsons of the ghost place liked it.

What's more, there are many similar entrances inside and outside Chang'an City, although they are basically sealed by the Taoist priests of Zhongnan Mountain and Qingcheng Mountain, but if you really have the heart to always find an opportunity to sneak in, where can you hide so aggressively?

But when he thought about it, how could Wang Shichong's unfathomable city and meticulous and deep mind make a meaningless decision? Maybe he sent someone to buy Yunyan Villa, and he came to the pit under his feet.

Thinking of this, Diao Xiaosi's mood immediately resurfaced and became lively, thinking that he had been fighting endlessly in the past two years, and the belongings brought out from the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum had almost used up seventy-seven eighty-eight, especially the rare materials used to refine the best Dao talismans were becoming more and more shy.

Could it be that Lao Wang's character exploded under this and unearthed a big treasure that he had missed before?!

When he landed, Diao Xiaosi's eyes were red, and he didn't hesitate to pull the toad out of the belt of the dragon, and said: "I know that Dayu can successfully cure the water, because his father is dead." Knowing that King Wen of Zhou can hang the people for his crimes, because his eldest son was chopped up. Knowing that Liu Bang could kill Xiang Yu for Lu, because his wife was abducted. It can be seen that behind every successful person there will be a relative who has the courage to dedicate himself. ”

The toad heard it in a fog, and inadvertently glanced at the mouth of the black hole, and seemed to understand something, and immediately shook his head desperately.

Diao Xiaosi ignored it and said to himself: "Although you and I are not relatives, we have fought side by side in life and death over the years, and we are not brothers and sisters who are better than brothers, and not relatives who are better than relatives." So—you're the dearest toad behind me!"

"Whoosh—" He let go of his fingers and watched as the toad danced as the grumbling and resentful toad eyes faded farther and farther away, quickly disappearing into the depths of the surging mist.

But Diao Xiaosi is not worried that the toad will never return. His mind could sense the position and movement of the toad anytime and anywhere, and the scene in the pit was clearly displayed on the altar.

At this moment, at the bottom of the pit under a hundred feet, the fog was rising like angry waves crashing on the shore, and two middle-aged men in black were waiting for them, closely monitoring the movements above the pit.

The eyes of these two people flickered, and their bodies were not affected by the underground wind at all, and they were obviously first-class masters.

Suddenly, the two of them were aware of it, and they stared at the depths of the fog together, and shouted in a deep voice: "Password!"

"Poof!" There was a muffled sound in the sky, and the fog rolled to both sides like a tide, and a cloud of misty gas burst out of it, like a waterfall pouring down towards the two of them.

The two men in black suddenly seemed to be drunk, their bodies were staggering and unstable, their clothes and hair and skin were glowing with colorful transparent blisters, and they couldn't resist the erosion of the dense qi with their superb magic skills.

When they were confused, the two of them still did not forget to howl and warn, and asked for help from other companions at the bottom of the pit, but in a trance, they saw a bulging belly and a huge round buttocks, and a blood-red toad drove the legendary colorful auspicious clouds down from the sky, like a small hill pressing itself against its head......

"Bang, bang!" the toad sat on top of the two unlucky bastards, and made a soft landing.

The two middle-aged men in black were shocked to the point that black blood sprayed wildly in front of them, and they fainted before they could even scream.

After a while, one of the men in black felt as if something slimy and wet was rubbing back and forth on his face, wisps of coolness seeping into his skin and hair, and the toxins raging in his body gradually melted away like spring sun and snow.

He opened his eyes in a daze and wanted to see the appearance of the life-saving father, who knew that what caught his eyes was a fat and thick toad tongue dripping with sticky saliva, and suddenly his stomach churned violently, and he vomited out "wow", and heard a voice scolding in his ears: "Niang Xipi, I met a troll again!"
