Chapter 17
Inside the inn.
Zang Xiaojian was bored, tossing the jade box containing the cold spirit fire up and down, back and forth, making the King Xi Mouse on the side look at it with his eyelids twitching.
It can clearly remember that the shopkeeper of Wanbao Tower warned that the cold spirit fire is extremely unstable and may explode at any time.
It quickly turned its little eyes to Lu Qingshan, its eyes full of help, hoping that Lu Qingshan would stop the dangerous behavior of hiding the sword.
Lu Qingshan glanced at the nervous West Rat King and remained indifferent.
"Why didn't Master Mo decide a meeting place in advance? Instead, he asked us to wait here." Zang Xiaojian was a little annoyed.
"It's quite normal. If he had told us the time and place of the meeting in advance, if we had second thoughts, we might make various arrangements to target him.
But if you don't say anything, then the initiative is in their hands, and they can show up to meet us again after confirming that it is safe." Lu Qingshan reassured us.
Zang Xiaojian wrinkled his nose in dissatisfaction and muttered in a low voice: "He is the only one with many tricks."
When Lu Qingshan heard Zang Xiaojian's complaint, he chuckled and said nothing more.
The little girl is not stupid, on the contrary, she is quite smart and can do many things easily.
She just lacks some experience. After all, there are many human ways, and you can only understand them after experiencing them.
King Xishu's eyes suddenly lit up, showing an expression of finally being freed, and he warned aloud: "Someone is coming!"
The next moment, a black shadow flashed past, and an extremely short monk appeared in the room.
Five dwarf real people.
"I've met fellow Taoist Lu and fellow Taoist Zang." As soon as Wu Diai appeared, he greeted the two of them first and then asked, "Have you obtained the Cold Spirit Fire Seed?"
Zang Xiaojian waved the jade box in his hand towards the Five Dwarf Masters, "Here it is!"
"Now that the cold spirit fire has been obtained, Master Mo should have come to you personally, but his situation is special and it is difficult to show up directly." Wudai said in a deep voice: "I can only bother you two to come with me, and I will take you.
Go see Master Mo."
Lu Qingshan waved his hand, "Just lead the way for small things."
…
A quiet courtyard in the south of the city.
Under the leadership of Master Wudai, Zang Xiaojian and Lu Qingshan appeared at the gate of the other courtyard.
Button - button button -
The Five Dwarfs came forward and knocked on the door. The rhythm and frequency of the door knocking were very particular. It was obviously a specific code.
The courtyard door opened silently.
"Master Mo is waiting for you inside." The person who opened the door was Xinyue Zhenren.
Wu Di led Lu Qingshan and the two of them straight into the hall.
"Friend Lu Dao, Friend Zang Dao." Mo Yan was already waiting in the hall. When he saw the two people arriving, he immediately stood up and greeted them in a neither humble nor overbearing manner.
Without further ado, he took out the jade box containing the cold spirit fire from the storage ring, took off the fire suppressing charm on the jade box, opened the jade box, and showed Mo Yan the cold spirit fire inside.
"This is what you want." After giving Mo Yan a look, Zang Xiaojian immediately closed the jade box and put it away.
Mo Yan naturally understood the meaning of hiding the small sword and waved. Fa Shui on the side hurriedly took a few steps forward and said, "Master Mo."
Mo Yan said to Zang Xiaojian: "Who are you looking for?"
Hidden Xiaojian looked at Lu Qingshan.
Lu Qingshan had already prepared, "We don't know the specific name or appearance."
Fa Shui suddenly showed a troubled look on his face, "This... if there is no information, I don't know where to find it..."
Lu Qingshan Shi Shiran said: "It is naturally impossible that there is no news. You just need to help me find out who has purchased large quantities of Sangluo wine or purchased Sangluo wine with high frequency on Jiaolong Island in the past twenty years.
Those who are drunk can do it.”
When he and Zang Xiaojian were exploring the Jiaolong City, they heard an extremely interesting anecdote.
The head of the Mo family in Longquan has been addicted to alcohol for a hundred years.
You must know that alcohol addiction is extremely difficult to get rid of once you get it.
Not to mention that the head of the Mo family also encountered a major event such as the overthrow of the family. Generally speaking, people who don't drink will most likely start drinking to drown their sorrows in such a situation. How could a person who is already extremely addicted to alcohol?
Quit drinking?
He also made some inquiries at that time and learned that the most famous type of wine on Longquan Island is Sangluo wine.
Based on the information currently known, it is easy to draw an inference. If the head of the Mo family really lives in seclusion on Jiaolong Island, it is very likely that there will be traces of purchasing Sangluo wine.
"Moreover, this person should have appeared very unexpectedly on Jiaolong Island in the past twenty years." Lu Qingshan added.
"Do you hear me clearly?" Mo Yan said solemnly, showing a rare majestic side.
Fa Shui said respectfully: "I understand, I will go down and investigate."
Mo Yan nodded, "Okay, let's go down and find out the clues as soon as possible. Don't let the two fellow Taoists wait too long."
Fa Shui retreated in a hurry.
"You should be able to gain something within a day." Mo Yan said to Lu Qingshan.
Even though Lu Qingshan's request was strange, Mo Yan didn't ask any more questions.
Lu Qingshan cupped his hands to express his gratitude, "Thank you."
Mo Yan thought about it for a moment and then said to Zang Xiaojian who was holding the jade box: "Friend Zang Dao, I have already given the order. I wonder if I can give you the cold spirit fire."
Mo Yan paused and explained: "It's not that I'm in a hurry. It's just that this cold spirit fire in your hands may bring danger to you."
"The most dangerous thing is in your hands..."
Just as Zang Xiaojian was about to retort, Lu Qingshan stopped Zang Xiaojian's next words. Looking at Mo Yan's calm expression, he seemed to understand something, "Master Mo already knew there was something wrong with this fire?"
Mo Yan said calmly: "After you took away the Cold Spirit Fire Seed from Wanbao Tower, I had people carefully observe you. No monk from the Poseidon Sect paid any follow-up attention to you or followed you."
"I didn't tell you clearly before that this fire was probably a trap set by the Poseidon Sect to lure me into action.
Since the Sea God Sect wants to use this Cold Spirit Fire Seed to trap us and doesn’t pay any attention to the two people who bought the Cold Spirit Fire Seed, it only shows that this Cold Spirit Fire Seed is not simple.” Mo Yan said loudly, but also wanted to convince Zang Zang.
Xiaojian handed over the cold spirit fire to him.
"Now that we all know that this cold spirit fire seed is not simple, do you still want it?" Lu Qingshan said meaningfully.
"The Poseidon Sect wants to plot against me, so why don't I take advantage of the scheme and defeat them as an army?
I want the cold spirit fire, and I also want the lives of the monks of the Poseidon Sect. I want them to lose their wives and lose their troops." Mo Yan held the Zhizhu in his hand, his eyes shining, "Fellow Taoist Lu and Taoist Zang, are you interested in staying and watching?
A good show?"
Lu Qingshan was startled at first, but when faced with Mo Yan's confidence, he did become somewhat interested, "Okay, I just have to wait for the news."
Zang Xiaojian's eyes suddenly flashed with excitement, looking like he was ready to take action.
