417 The secret room hides a lot of treasures, and the dilemma is to find life
Of course, Gou Zhu didn't really come to pick up this small box. The fact that he was able to get this thing was a pure coincidence, in addition to the fact that he was originally in the habit of his profession.
Ever since he hid in this secret room because of Lu Baiyu's bounty pursuit, he had become extremely bored, so bored that he began to study the secret room itself.
The walls around this secret room were obviously mixed with withered spirit iron pith, and judging from the black color, the content of withered spirit iron pith was not low. The chamber itself is insulated from psychic probes.
In addition to being used to hide at critical moments, a place like this may also be used to hide important items. Since he has come to this kind of place, Gou Zhu is naturally a little itchy.
After all, it was Xiao Di who saved his life. If he still takes other people's things because of this, it will be too unrighteous. Even if he was still a thief who didn't enter the Xuanmen, he would never do such a thing.
But just because you don't steal from someone else's house doesn't mean you can't find out the secrets in this secret room. It's a big deal to see anything valuable, just don't take it.
So he really knocked on every inch of the wall, every floor tile. Anyway, he is locked up here every day, and the last thing he lacks is time.
Each of these tiles is laced with dry iron pize, and any scans of the consciousness are useless. And they're so thick that even when you knock on them, the sound is almost no different.
But when I did, I could hear that there was a very subtle difference in the sound of one of the knocks. He used all his strength to get the whole tile out of it.
Sure enough, there was a hidden space underneath, hiding the box made of extremely pure dry spirit iron pith. The box is not directly open, it is locked. It's just that this kind of dry spirit iron pith can absorb spiritual machines, so it can't be forbidden to set locks with spiritual machines, it's just ordinary mechanical locks.
No lock can stop the enhanced version of the Xuanmen practice. When he opened the box, he saw another box, which was also made of dry spirit iron chalcea. It's just that he didn't dare to open the box anymore, because there was a seal attached to it. There was a mark on the seal, and there was a faint flash of inspiration on it.
He had learned about this kind of spiritual seal in the ancestral notes collected by Danyang Pavilion. Even if you are only exposed to the air, you may reveal your location. As for touching or even tearing it apart, it is even more troublesome, and it is very likely to attract the original owner and cause trouble.
Theoretically, when he opened the outer box, he had already exposed the seal. But fortunately, he was in the secret room, which was also sealed by the dry spirit iron pith, so this seal should not reveal his location.
If he tore open the seal, it would be hard to say whether this impure wall of withered spirit iron chalcea would be able to withstand the burst of spiritual alertness.
This is certainly extremely important. Inner box, seal, plus outer box. Outside the outer box, there is a secret room, three layers of dry spirit iron pith, and a layer of seals. Apparently to absolutely prevent being perceived.
Hook's curiosity has been satisfied. What's more, he had long thought that he would not steal from the Xiao family, so he carefully resealed the thing and put it back in its place.
For the next few days, he continued to search for interesting things in the secret room. But nothing came of it. The entire chamber was filled with only one box.
It wasn't until he used the Blue Han Spirit Puppet to go out to find a way that he happened to hear the conversation between Wu Bubai and Xiao Jian of the Hundred-Legged Flying Heaven, and found that they planned to hold Xiao Di hostage, just for something in Xiao Sufeng's hands. He had a guess: was the box hidden in the secret room what they wanted to rob?
When he thought about it, the possibilities were great. If there is one of the most important objects in the Xiao Mansion, Xiao Sufeng cannot carry it with him at any time, and if he wants to find a safe hiding place, there is no place more secure than this place that cannot be explored by his divine sense.
Moreover, this secret room and these boxes used up so much dry spirit iron pith, even if it was the Xiao family's financial resources, it was impossible to build a second room.
If his conjecture is correct, then this box is directly related to Xiao Di's life and death. If he took this thing away first, those monsters would naturally lose interest in Xiao Di.
Therefore, while escaping from the secret room, he also took out this thing and put it in his immortal lotus, slipped out, and was always ready to use it as a last resort.
Even if he guesses wrong, there is nothing to lose for him. No matter what it is, it's a big deal to give it back to Xiao Sufeng in the future. As long as Su Feng was alive at that time.
When he heard the hundred-legged flying sky say "The Crane King Seals the Heavenly Seal", he understood that he had guessed correctly. Because the seal pattern on that seal is obviously a white crane, there will be no such coincidence in the world.
No matter what reason Xiao Sufeng froze, it was impossible for Gou Zhu to see Xiao Di die in front of him. Now that he had something in hand, of course he had to step up.
As soon as the box came out, it immediately shocked the spot. But Gou Zhu only opened the lid of the outer box, flashed in the moonlight, and then immediately closed it again.
Therefore, in the eyes of Elder Xie and Shizi of the Crane Clan not far away, the spiritual light on the Heaven Sealing Plate was originally lit up, but it gradually dimmed.
At this time, Elder Xie was not worried, but just put the jade plate on the ground, and then put the index finger and middle finger of his right hand together, reciting the mana in his mouth, and injected a wisp of mana into the jade plate. The aura on the jade plate gradually lit up again.
In fact, unless it is a whole piece of dry spirit iron pith, hollowed out in the middle, and then put into the object, it will not reveal the slightest spiritual opportunity. As long as there is a lid on the box that can be opened, there must be a certain gap, and there is always a small amount of spiritual power that can leak out.
As long as the Heaven Sealing Plate touches the aura of the spiritual power of the seal on the seal once, it will lock, and no matter how weak it becomes in the future, Elder Xie can use his mana to amplify this weak spiritual ability, so that the jade plate can feel it.
It's just that it doesn't last. After a few months, the Celestial Seal Disc will gradually lose its trace. But months of lockdown were enough for them.
And at this time, in the courtyard of the Xiao family, the situation became quite weird. The eyes of the Hundred-Legged Flying Sky and the other demon bandits were full of flickering and uncertain colors. He had the heart to snatch it, but he didn't know the details of the other party.
At this time, Xiao Sufeng's attitude is also very crucial. If Xiao Sufeng made a move with this person first, he could stand by and watch. On the contrary, he struck first, and Xiao Sufeng might have sneak attack from behind to reap the benefits.
For a moment, the air seemed to be a string that had been tightened to the extreme, just waiting for any wind to break the silence.
Gou Zhu is communicating with Xiao Sufeng with divine thoughts. Whether he can escape alive depends on Xiao Sufeng's attitude.
In his consciousness, the two stood in the void. Although Xiao Sufeng lost his left hand and stood in a red robe, although his eyes were a little tired, the majesty of the Venerable Master of the Purple Mansion was not a little less in the slightest.
Gou Zhu hugged his hands and respectfully said: "Master Sufeng, the younger generation has offended." ”
Xiao Sufeng's eyes flashed: "You didn't come for that box?"
"The junior had a little dispute with the young master of the Lu family half a month ago and accidentally killed him. At that time, he was chased by a master and almost died. It was Miss Xiao who hid me in the secret room and saved my life. I only happened to hear their plan, so I took the first step, lest they take Miss Xiao hostage. ”
Xiao Sufeng glanced at him again, then saluted with one hand and replied, "Thank you little brother for your help." It's just that your cultivation is too low. Even if you and I join forces, we are still not their opponents. Tonight the things are in your hands, and these bandits will definitely not let you go. ”
As soon as the mind moved, there was more black box in his hand as if he were in the world. He shook it with his hand and said:
"Does the Venerable Master have to keep such a hot thing? I don't think that's the case. It's because you made some kind of blood pact, so you can't hand it over. Why don't I hand it over to them for you, so that everyone can disperse?"
Gou Zhu is the best at observing words and feelings. He had already seen the torment in Xiao Sufeng's eyes, not that he didn't want to hand it over to rescue Xiao Di, but that he couldn't hand it over at all. Thinking about it, only the Xuanxue Deed could bind him so rigidly.
Xiao Sufeng didn't answer, just nodded. If he took the initiative to hand over the things, he would have touched the divine sense prohibition of the Xuan Blood Contract. But the thing was already in Gou's hands, and he didn't hand it over to anyone on his own initiative, so it didn't violate any of the terms of the contract.
"However, these bandits are fierce and vicious. If you don't get it, it probably won't be good. Once you get your hands on something, you may go on a killing spree, and you and I will have to die here. ”
Xiao Sufeng is not sure of the idea of flying into the sky now. If the other party wants to destroy the door, they will obviously do it after they get the thing.
At that time, he was only one person, plus a useless hook. Xiao Di is still in the hands of the other party, and they will be limited to an extremely unfavorable situation.
Gou Zhu replied confidently, "Master Sufeng has been able to operate in the Demon Realm for so many years, it is impossible that he has not prepared a way to teleport quickly. As long as the Venerable Master can teleport my little brother away, and the things are in my hands, the bandits will only chase me. Won't the Xiao family be safe in this way?"
He had already thought in advance that Xiao Sufeng himself must have some teleportation secret method that could escape quickly. It's just that Xiao Di is in the hands of the other party, and he can't escape alone.
Xiao Sufeng lowered his head and groaned, this method was the best for him. As long as this person is sent away and the box is added, Hundred-Footed Flying Sky will never be stupid enough to stay and fight with him for useless purposes. It's just that this method is actually extremely disadvantageous for this little brother.
"There is indeed a method of teleportation, but these demon bandits must also know this, so they must have prepared a method of tracking for a long time. Even if you escape, you'll be in pursuit soon. ”
"The boat is naturally straight to the bridge, so the master does not have to worry. I'll run away first, and as for whether they will catch up, then it's up to luck!" Gou Zhu replied without hesitation.
