Chapter five hundred and eighty fourth wooden box
The fourth lady said a lot of things in the second letter, but not much specific. Chu Xunyu and the other two needed to explore other clues after reading it. She couldn't say anything, and she didn't mention why things would happen on the Mid-Autumn Festival night, or what happened. All of them still need to be considered.
So Mu Yuan asked Chu Xunyu and Wangchen while drinking porridge: "One of you is an old man, and the other has liked to read some books about strange powers and gods since childhood. Have you ever heard of any monsters that are difficult on a full moon night?"
"The streets are everywhere." Chu Xunyu shrugged and threw a piece of carrot into his mouth. "Since ancient times, the essence of the moon is yin, cold in nature, and pure. Almost most monsters have the habit of breathing in the moon. I have never heard of an idiom called "Rhino Looking at the Moon". That feeling is like we soaked in the dragon waterfall in Kunlun, and the taste is wonderful."
Wangchen nodded, "Since the Mid-Autumn Festival was established in the Zhou Li, the moon will be particularly large and round every day, emitting a pure and cold force. This 'moon power' will be maximized on the Mid-Autumn night. All ghosts and monsters will rush to breathe and improve their cultivation on this day, and only once a year."
"Just practice, just practice. Why do you need to fight and kill?" Mu Yuanyangyang's letter in his hand meant why Boss Mu and the others were covered in blood, and it was obviously a fight.
"Cultivation is impossible." Chu Xunyu shook his head, "At present, they have not mastered any methods of practice at all, and their physique is special. What methods do they use to practice? Their bodies are between demons and humans, which is also the result of their ancestors' reproduction. That day they must have solved something important."
"Then where should we start this matter?" Mu Yuan asked again.
“When is the Mid-Autumn Festival recently?”
Wangchen calculated: "It's only five days later."
"Is that so? It's already Mid-Autumn Festival." Chu Xunyu said to himself. As the saying goes, "I miss my family more during the holidays. In the past, I always admire chrysanthemums and crabs at home. But now it's not the time to consider this kind of thing. Chu Xunyu shook his head, put aside this idea, and then said decisively, "We have been keeping a close eye on the Mu family these days, especially Boss Mu himself. They are not cultivators or purebred monsters. If we can't see our whereabouts, we must figure out the key."
Mu Yuan and Wangchen nodded in agreement, quickly finished the porridge, and hurried out to the Mu family's house. The Mu family's house was still as popular as ever, mostly business matters, and they were all ordinary people, and there was nothing worth noting. Chu Xunyu and the other two stayed not far from the gate of the Mu family's house. Wangchen sniffed it with a strange smell, "Do you feel that the smell of realgar, cinnabar and other things on the Mu family's house are getting heavier and heavier?"
The two of them also felt it and nodded to say yes. It seems that things will be about to be done soon. This is typical preparation. Suddenly, an old man walked out of the gate of the Mu family, biting his ears with the servants and saying something. The three of them recognized that this was their housekeeper. Chu Xunyu thought about it and heard them whispering something in the back door. Seeing their expressions mysterious, Chu Xunyu turned to tell the two of them: "Let me go around behind and look. You are staring here. If you get separated, you will meet in the inn at night." After saying that, he looked around and easily got into the crowd and followed the servants to the back of the Mu family's yard.
Going around to the back, there was a dead end. Chu Xunyu saw that several servants were carrying a big wooden box. The things they were carrying looked quite heavy, and even the shoulder pole was bent. Several people were so tired that they sniffed in through the back door. The doorman stretched out his head and looked at the left and right. After confirming, he closed the door. Chu Xunyu hid in the corner and saw clearly. He smiled and said to himself: "Oh? What are you raising?" After saying that, he straightened his body and directly pinched the word "hidden" and climbed over the wall.
After entering, it was the place where the servants of the Mu family were servile. The servants carried the big box into a room with difficulty, then moved their shoulders, locked the door and left with a smile. Chu Xunyu immediately followed him. After confirming that the person was walking away, he heard that there was no movement in the room, opened the crack in the door and looked again. Then he realized that there was a muddy room of the Mu family, with a lot of messy things piled up. The box I just saw was piled up in it. Not only that, there were also boxes exactly the same as it, at least three or four people were sealed. This made Chu Xunyu's curiosity tempted. The next moment, Chu Xunyu's figure had already appeared in the door.
Chu Xunyu was about to open the box, but suddenly the seal on the box was very interesting, so he followed it and found that the seals were written on them with words such as "Northeast Shunyuan Escort Agency", "Shaanxi Feicheng Escort Agency", "Shandong Tai'an Escort Agency", "Hunan Chengwei Escort Agency", etc. Chu Xunyu secretly thought, what are the items contained in it? It seems that the Mu family has made a lot of money this time, because it seems that they were transported from all over the world, and these escort agencies are all extraordinary. Based on Chu Xunyu's experience in traveling around the world, he knew that these escort agencies had backgrounds in the court. It is not easy to ask them to do things. Not to mention money, the relationship must be strong enough. It seems that the Mu family's business world has been ups and downs for several years, and their families are indeed well-off.
Without mentioning gossip, Chu Xunyu immediately took action and opened a box from the northeast. He was stunned and looked for a while before he was amazed: "What are the Mu family going to do?"
It turned out that the box was filled with weapons, and they were not ordinary weapons, but "arms". They had steel knives, barbs, ropes and other objects. Chu Xunyu had extraordinary eyesight and came out of the war period. He recognized at first glance that these things were not something that could be bought in the market. He picked up a steel knife with his hand and a blade. Good guy, it was all made of stainless steel. According to convention, the handle of the knife would have marked, because the court had strict control over these weapons in the military. When it was made, it was put on a steel seal. Unfortunately, the mark on the handle of the knife had been scraped off. Chu Xunyu sneered, but it was impossible to hide it from himself. He recognized at first glance that this was used by the infantry and military camps of Shanhaiguan. The Mu family is really amazing. Even the things in the army can be smoothed out. I have to praise them.
Chu Xunyu then opened several boxes, and now there were cinnabar, medicine, weapons, etc., all of which were top-quality and first-class goods. Judging from this attitude, were you preparing to fight? But soon Chu Xunyu's idea was dispelled because he opened the last box from Shaanxi.
