16. Mystery Man
No matter how fast the horse is on the winding path, it can only walk very slowly. The people on the horse are still urging, "Drive, drive, drive." As soon as they pass the path, the horses start to gallop.
Zhao Wu is very anxious. His secret meeting with the mysterious man this time involves huge risks, but also huge rewards!
He imagined various appearances of the mysterious man in his mind, including being cunning, cunning, moody, and suspicious. He had corresponding words and responses, and made a lot of preparations and plans for this trip across the sacred mountain.
The fast horse was still driving non-stop, and Zhao Wu guessed ten thousand possible situations in his mind. No matter which one, he would complete what his ancestor told him to do.
Become a great master directly after enlightenment!
Find wealth in danger!
Zhao Wu rode his horse into a bush. The bush was very tall. Ou Du had already surpassed him on horseback. It could almost be called a tree. He controlled the reins very carefully and kept scanning his eyes.
Looking around, he felt an unusual smell, which was based on a warrior's intuition.
Zhao Wu also held the sword on his horse's back in his hand. If anything went wrong, he would strike with the sword in the midst of lightning and flint, and then rush forward on his horse!
"drive"!
Zhao Wu suddenly slapped the riding whip on the horse's back, as if he was about to run for his life. He discovered something unusual!
Zhao Wu took action with his long sword, and saw a strange floating black weapon attacking him!
It's a knife, a knife that hasn't been drawn out of its sheath!
The visitor booed him and looked down upon him. He didn't even take out his sword, which made Zhao Wu even more angry!
"Death"! Before Zhao Wu could finish his words, he was knocked off his horse by the scabbard and fell to the ground.
"you"!
Then there was a palm strike, and Zhao Wu immediately fainted and fell to the ground. Zhao Wu thought of ten thousand possibilities, but he did not expect that he would end up like this.
This may be the 1001st possibility that Zhao Wu did not expect!
Chu Ning looked at Zhao Wu lying on the ground and murmured in a low voice: Soul-moving magic!
For a long time, Chu Ning's forehead was covered with dense sweat, and his whole body was extremely weak. This soul-moving method was indeed too mentally draining. Just catching a glimpse of Zhao Wu's memory about Southern Xinjiang was already overwhelming.
, if you read Zhao Wu’s memories, you won’t die of exhaustion!
But it is worth it. With these memories, you will be more confident when crossing the sacred mountain. The mysterious man must have captured a lot of children! This is also the reason why Chu Ning must go!
Chu Ning took out the star card from Zhao Wu's arms and found a bottle of elixir from his arms. Chu Ning looked at it, opened it and swallowed it. The Xuan Ni Good Fortune Bead was in his body and began to help him recover.
Come.
Chu Ning waved his right hand lightly, and a burst of Tao Qi directly transformed into fire and ignited on Zhao Wu's body. In an instant, only a little dust remained.
Zhao Wu should know by now that wealth and honor are sought in danger, but also lost in danger. One out of ten times you seek it, and nine out of ten times you lose it! He doesn't seem to need to know anymore.
Hengduan Shenshan is composed of relatively primitive mountains. The trees are so long that they block the sky and the sun. Only a little sunlight can shine through the lush leaves. There is a person walking on a difficult road in a place that vaguely looks like a road.
Forward.
Walking to the foot of a big mountain, Chu Ning transported his true energy and shouted, "Zhao Wu of the Zhao family, following the decree of our ancestors, are here to present treasures to our seniors. Please show up and see us!"
The sound is very deep, and can be heard far away even in densely wooded mountains...
"Huh? Someone from the Zhao family is here, go and bring him." Someone said from a hidden cave.
"As commanded"!
Chu Ning followed the two people who led the way and walked into a seemingly inconspicuous cave. The entrance to the cave was very small, and it became wider and wider as you walked inside. There was an avenue inside that was wider than the official road. It was really
There is no such thing as a cave!
An old man wearing a black robe. The style of his black robe is different from that of Middle-earth China. The black robe is embroidered with various strange and mysterious patterns. Among them, there is a pure white sword on his left atrium.
The flowers look very magical!
The old man's face was as withered as weeds and covered with wrinkles, his eyes were sunken deeply, and he had a long hooked nose. He looked like a very cunning and ferocious man like a wolf, "Are you the person sent by the Zhao family?
"
"Back to senior, junior is it!"
"I hit it off with your ancestor and we stayed in your Zhao Mansion for a few days. I also really like the canary that your ancestor raised. I forgot whether the feathers on its head are red or yellow.
"The old man said to Chu Ning with his eyes narrowed.
"Senior, I'm afraid I remembered it wrong. I have never lived in the mansion, and my ancestor has never raised a canary." Fortunately, Chu Ning used the soul transfer method to read Zhao Wu's memory.
"Oh, it seems so...Yes, I remembered it wrong." The old man was very suspicious and tried to test Chu Ning's deliberate mistake. Then his expression softened and he asked again, "What do I want?"
Chu Ning very carefully handed the star tablet in her arms to the attendant beside her, who then gave the star tablet to the old man.
The old man impatiently took the star card in his hand and looked at it. While looking at it, he kept stroking the texture on the star card with his hand.
"Well, yes, your ancestor really did not disappoint me, and you are also very good. I admire young and promising young men the most." After saying that, the old man began to look at Chu Ning. The young man in white is not in a hurry when doing things.
, in front of him, he was still obedient and obedient. He was surrounded by loyal and obedient people, but he had already killed all the unloyal and obedient people.
"what's your name?"
"Returning to the seniors, this junior is Zhao Ning, a direct descendant of the Zhao family." Chu Ning lowered his head as he spoke, showing that he was very respectful.
"Farewell senior, senior, I can't bear to hear this, call me Elder Jin, or Elder Jin," Elder Jin waved his hand and said.
"Your ancestor is still sincere and sent a direct descendant of the Zhao family. If it were someone else from the Zhao family, I would have approved them with a slap and throw them directly into the mountains to feed the wild beasts." Elder Jin said with a strong aura and clashed.
, like a natural disaster coming, a big rock next to Chu Ning exploded into rubble with a "bang" under the strong pressure!
Chu Ning couldn't help but sigh: Could this be another golden elixir powerhouse?
Chu Ning is not afraid that Elder Jin will suddenly kill him, because such a strong man always treats the weak as playthings, and will tease and tease him before killing him!
Chu Ning was still standing there, waiting quietly, with no intention of leaving.
"Tell me, your ancestor has anything else to say to me. It's best to interest me, otherwise you will be of no use, and useless things will be disposed of." Elder Jin thought Chu Ning was waiting for him.
He wanted to exchange the magic weapon for star cards, so he was unhappy for a moment. Although he spoke softly, his words made people shudder.
"Old Jin, our ancestor asked me to tell you that my Zhao family recently found out about the whereabouts of another star tablet, which will be available in the near future. I wonder if Old Jin is willing to exchange it for a magic weapon." Chu Ning said still calmly.
.
"Oh? You still have a star tablet?" Elder Jin looked at Chu Ning doubtfully. No matter how he looked at it, Chu Ning didn't seem to have the courage to lie to him.
"Change the magic weapon?"
"Yes, Mr. Jin, although our Zhao family is the largest family in Bingzhou City, we still don't have a decent magic weapon. I hope Mr. Jin is willing to exchange it with my Zhao family." Chu Ning looked like he would die for money.
I am determined to exchange magic weapons.
"Hahaha... Well, this is what I want. I will go and get the magic weapon I prepared," Elder Jin said with a smile and went back to get the magic weapon.
After a while, Elder Jin came over with the magic weapon.
He saw a square box in his hand, which looked ordinary. Chu Ning thought to himself: This old guy is not lying to me.
"My dear nephew, this is the Heaven Stealing Pill Cauldron. It is a top-quality magic weapon. It has already been warmed and nourished with a trace of spirituality. Use this treasure tripod to hold elixirs. It will not rot for thousands of years and will not be invaded by water or fire. It is a rare magic weapon. You guys
It is most suitable for use by aristocratic families. It can ensure that the elixirs of your aristocratic family will be passed down for thousands of years. There will be a steady stream of well-preserved elixirs for your Zhao family to use. Hahahaha, this is really a good treasure!" Elder Jin kept praising the Kou Baoding.
It seems like it is really a rare magic weapon in the world.
Chu Ning was extremely depressed. She spent a long time working on this thing just to preserve the elixir!
If I have some elixirs, it's not good to just take them. If I keep them for thousands of years, you might as well just give me some elixirs. But now it's done, so I have to accept it.
Elder Jin saw that Chu Ning felt as if he had eaten a fly, and felt very proud in his heart. The Tiansheng Danding Cauldron was indeed of no use. If it hadn't been a real magic weapon, it would have been thrown away long ago.
"Then think more about the treasure given by Elder Jin." Chu Ning said gratefully, holding the Stealing Heaven Sheng Danding Cauldron.
An attendant walked up to him and whispered something. Elder Jin suddenly frowned and looked solemn. He sent Chu Ning to rest and hurriedly walked towards the entrance of the cave.
"My dear nephew, this cave is full of twists and turns. Don't wander around in it. If you encounter a ghost, I won't be able to protect you!" Elder Jin turned around and warned Chu Ning.
"Junior must abide by it!" He said and followed the attendant down.
While Elder Jin walked out, he was still thinking: The Zhao family has a star plaque. I have known it for a long time. How come there is another one? Is it true that there is a star plaque? Looking at the boy's appearance, Zhao
The family really wants the magic weapon to strengthen their power. No matter what, once it is done, there will be no need for the Zhao family to exist.
Chu Ning was placed in a room carved out of a cave. He looked carefully at the vase-sized Thieving Pill Cauldron. There were many patterns carved around the cauldron, including mountains, lakes, the sun, and the moon. In addition to feeling that it looked a bit old, Chu Ning was placed in a room carved out of a cave.
Nothing was found anymore. This tripod was really worthless to Chu Ning. It is understandable that if it was a good thing, would Elder Jin give it to him?
"Damn it, I'm angry when I see you!" Chu Ning punched Tiansheng Danding. Just when he was about to hit Baoding, Baoding seemed to have become conscious and avoided Chu Ning's fist and took the initiative to hit Baoding.
Get back!
Chapter completed!
