Chapter 197: The Guardian

What are you doing here?"

Lao Dao's voice was exactly the same as what they had heard in front of them, but his attitude was very different from when he treated Wu Zhengyue.

Fang Yan and the others were not stupid, so naturally they would not tell what they had seen before, but they each guessed in their hearts.

What is certain is that there is definitely something wrong with this old-fashioned way that seems to be outstanding.

It's just why does he have a spring breeze attitude towards Wu Zhengyue, but he treats himself and others so coldly?

Chen Xingwan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he stepped forward first, "Senior, I'm waiting for ......"

After pouring out the purpose of his own and others' coming, Chen Xingwan added: "If you can, please ask your seniors to make it convenient, I am grateful." ”

When the words fell, Chen Xingwan gave a deep salute again.

Lao Dao fell silent after Chen Xingwan's words fell.

He only looked at Fang Yan and the six people with a pair of bottomless eyes, and it was not until he saw that Fang Yan and the six people's hearts were suddenly seen, and his words sounded.

"Oh, that's what you're looking for?"

As soon as Lao Dao's voice fell, Fang Yan and the others saw that something suddenly appeared in his hand.

A ball the size of a pigeon's egg glowing white lay in the palm of its hand.

Although Fang Yan didn't know what the treasure Liu Xiuqi said looked like, after seeing the thing in Lao Dao's hand, his eyes widened suddenly.

Although there was a short distance, Fang Yan inexplicably felt that the bead in Lao Dao's hand was very extraordinary, and he was already eight or nine points sure that it was that treasure.

The rest of the people also inexplicably have the same feeling as Fang Yan, although this bead looks ordinary, and it is not a blind appearance, but the feeling exuded on it makes people know its value at first sight.

Even, Fang Yan faintly felt that the quality of such a bead was no longer under the acquired spirit treasure.

The most gratifying thing is that the beads contain extremely strong yin qi, as if this is an essence that has been condensed and refined by countless yin qi.

Everyone didn't speak for a while, after all, Lao Dao was coldly frowning at Fang Yan and them one moment ago, but the next moment he took out the treasure they were looking for without saying a word, and anyone would think about it more.

However, Chen Xingwan was a monk of the Xuan Period after all, and after being stunned for a while, he nodded at Lao Dao and said, "It's this treasure, thank you seniors." ”

As he spoke, he wanted to step forward and take it.

Chen Xingwan's experience is so rich, he naturally knows that Lao Dao doesn't want to give them the beads directly, but just wants to sell them with treasures.

Still, he pretended not to understand and stepped forward.

Chen Xingwan's move seemed abrupt and reckless, but it was actually done after deep thought.

He could just use his current behavior to probe the danger of this area near Lao Dao, after all, even if Lao Dao was unwilling to give this treasure to himself and others, they would have to snatch it.

And Chen Xingwan, as the person with the highest cultivation, can only do this matter to him.

Moreover, you can also take the opportunity to test the depth of the old way.

Since Lao Dao has the meaning of selling with treasure, it is naturally impossible to be ruthless, so the risk is not too great.

As for the other ideas, I will not come up one by one.

Therefore, Chen Xingwan's move is actually killing several birds with one stone.

Seeing this, Lao Dao's eyelids twitched, he was naturally not a fool, how could he not understand Chen Xingwan's thoughts.

"As long as you can get it, it's okay to give it away. ”

After silently thinking about it in his heart, he didn't mean to stop it, but showed a smile of unknown meaning.

"It's okay, let this kid see how good the poor road is!"

Lao Dao thought so in his heart.

If Fang Yan and the others could hear his heart, they would feel strange.

Although this old Taoist seems to be quite old, Chen Xingwan is also a monk who is hundreds or thousands of years old, but he is only a child in his heart, which can already explain a lot of problems.

Fang Yan and the others naturally understood Chen Xingwan's intentions, so their eyes firmly locked on his figure.

Although even if something happens, Fang Yan and the others may not be able to help, they can still warn in advance.

Then, Fang Yan's gaze inadvertently caught a glimpse of Lao Dao, only to find that the round bead in his hand was still lying quietly, exposed in front of everyone.

And his face was as usual, and there was no sense of nervousness at all.

It seems that he has nothing to fear, and even wants to give Fang Yan and the others a dismount.

But this may also be a bluff, so Chen Xingwan did not stop there, but approached the old way.

After dozens of breaths, Chen Xingwan had already come to Lao Dao.

Although he already knew that Lao Dao was a bit evil, but the treasure was in front of him, and it was still the treasure that his party was looking for, and Chen Xingwan naturally would not flinch.

"Seniors. ”

Although Chen Xingwan did not say the rhetoric of asking for the baby, the meaning was already very obvious.

Since you asked me to get it, give it to me now!

I saw Lao Dao smile lightly, and he actually stretched out his hand and handed the treasure in front of Chen Xingwan.

Chen Xingwan had already tensed up at this time, ready to deal with any unexpected situation at any time, even if Lao Dao suddenly attacked, he would have some confidence in escaping.

What he never expected was that Lao Dao would simply put the treasure in front of him like this, which was very different from his previous appearance.

Although he suspected that there was fraud in it, Chen Xingwan had no shortage of means and the city government, so he dared to reach out and pick it up.

So, Chen Xingwan stretched out his hand under Lao Dao's somewhat meaningful gaze.

For a moment, Fang Yan and the rest of the people couldn't help but hold their breath.

It wasn't until Chen Xingwan's hand had come into contact with the treasure that everyone's hearts were in ecstasy.

But after discovering that Chen Xingwan did not have a trace of joy on his face, but was stunned, Fang Yan and the rest couldn't help but sink in their hearts.

Before Fang Yan and the others could think of anything, Lao Dao spoke first: "Hehe, this treasure is not easy to take, Daoist friends can understand it now?"

Chen Xingwan had already withdrawn his hand at this time, and there was something thoughtful in his eyes that flashed away, and he couldn't help asking, "May I ask how the seniors are willing to hand over this treasure to us?"

After Fang Yan and the others heard this, they finally understood why Chen Xingwan had that expression just now.

Presumably, Chen Xingwan knew in a short contact just now that he could not take that treasure away from Lao Dao's hands with his strength.

"Could it be that the treasure grows on the old man's body?"

Fang Yan couldn't help but think suspiciously.

Lao Dao smiled, and the treasure disappeared with a wave of his hand.

"Very good, the old man hasn't introduced himself yet, and he can't hide it, the old man is the guardian of this treasure. ”

Lao Dao said, straightening his back and looking serious.

Fang Yan and the others were stunned for a moment, and their eyes flickered.

At this moment, Fang Yan couldn't help but think of the scene he saw by mistake in the red gate before, this old Taoist is still Wu Zhengyue's master, how could he become the guardian of this treasure in the blink of an eye?
