Chapter 185 – The Secret of the Red River
Outside the building, in the eyes of all the people irresistible “big master” has spoken, those people really do not dare to continue to play rough, very sensible to run away, bullying soft and afraid of hard manifested. Long Xiaozhao also did not dare to run, he dared to weak against strong, also dared to fight against the crowd, but does not mean that do not know how to live, the gap is so large to a certain extent is not a small smart and courage can be made up for.
A few moments later, Long Xiaozhao apprehensively carrying the so-called “Swallowing Heavenly Treasures” knocked on the door.
The one who opened the door was a seventeen or eighteen year old girl who looked him up and down, focusing on his stomach, and stifled a smile, “Please come in.”
Long Xiaozhao entered the door, only to see a man and a woman sitting at the table drinking, a little girl seemed to be beaten to death lying on the bed, looking pitiful. He couldn’t help but be even more alarmed, this man is definitely a big devil, even his own daughter was beaten so hard …… He apprehensively went up and bowed, arching his hand and sending the Heaven Swallowing Treasure Canon: “Former, senior …… This is what you want to The Treasure Canon ……”
Xue Mu took it and flipped through it slightly, it was just a normal cultivation technique, emphasizing the way of gulping heaven and earth’s spiritual qi, the level might not be bad, but he wasn’t interested in it at all, that said, if he swallowed the stick, he might be able to practice it for the girls, but what’s the point of swallowing the sky?
Putting the book on the table casually, he asked curiously, “Why don’t you secretly practice the Divine Skill when you’ve got it, instead of divulging it to cause people to chase and kill you?”
Long Xiaozhao is also regretful to fall feet: “usually drink too much love to blow a few sentences ……”
“Blow? I’m afraid it’s not necessarily.” Xue Mu said indifferently, “You are a local familiar face, not a foreign guest, this countryside town locals suddenly get Xuan level technique, others will not ask you where you come from? After half a day of clamoring, I didn’t hear any forced questions, just snatching, why is this? Is the other party particularly stupid?”
Long Xiaozhao’s complexion changed slightly, cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
Zhuo Qingqing and the others’ complexion also changed, their slender hands already pressing on the hilt of their swords. They thought to themselves that this is really problematic, the great thing is that the Gongzi is there to tell the story of the green grasslands, how can his mind still be spinning with all of this?
Xue Mu continued, “Let me guess …… it should be that when I fought with someone before, I showed my cultivation and battle skills that far exceeded those of the past, and caused people to be suspicious. So he deliberately borrowed wine to divulge where he picked up an Xuan level technique for people to come and grab it, and then fought to the death to guard it for a while to be taken helplessly, so that the secret of his own enhancement was covered up, and he was actually protecting a higher level secret, which should be Earth level to say the least.”
Long Xiaozhao’s face turned white.
Zhuo Qingqing and the others instead sighed in relief, it really didn’t matter to them what greater creations other people got, it wasn’t just that there wasn’t any conspiracy.
“Don’t be nervous, I’m not interested in your creations, keep it to yourself.” Xue Mu’s words changed, and he suddenly said, “This river sand is reddish, is there iron ore at the bottom of the river?”
By implication, he didn’t really suspect that there was a mine, but was suspecting that this was caused by some secret realm, and that maybe this was the source of Long Xiaozhao’s secret. Exploring the secret realm words, he was interested.
Long Xiaozhao was disheveled, thinking that the gap in strength was too great, and there was no point in struggling. Since people already have suspicions, might as well be honest and confess to less suffering, so he sat down on his butt: “Being said by the senior, I feel as if I have been tracked for ten days, and there is no point in concealing it again. Iron ore is certainly not, the river sand red, a thousand years ago to attract people to explore countless times, the bottom of the river has long been dug, there are mines have also long been found. Besides, if it is dyed by the mine, it should be poisonous, but this sand is not poisonous and useless.”
Xue Mu personally helped him pour a bowl of wine: “So?”
“There is no mine at the bottom of the river, but about twenty miles upstream, there is a very hidden entrance to the secret realm, the entrance has an illusion to conceal it as ordinary river sand, and has never been discovered over the years. I also don’t know if this red river sand is related to the secret realm ……”
Curry Night couldn’t help but ask, “Then how did you discover it?”
“One night I was practicing upstream and suddenly had a stomachache, so I went behind a tree and took a dump ……Uh, sorry little sister, I didn’t mean to use foul language ……”
Xue Mu didn’t have the heart to say, “Get to the point.”
“A ghostly shadow stumbled over and plunged headfirst into the river.” Long Xiaozhao said, “Originally I thought it was jumping into the river, but looking at that appearance and not like that, I left a heart and waited there quietly. Sure enough, he didn’t come out for a day and a night, and there was no floating body in the river. This is not to say that there is a place to stay down there. …… Laozi simply do not eat, do not sleep and wait there, wait until the third day, he finally left.”
Xue Mu tsked and praised, “Your perseverance and patience is not bad.”
“Almost starved to death all.” Long Xiaozhao sighed, “Then I jumped down, and I was also lucky, the illusion at the entrance was probably just broken by that person and hadn’t healed yet, and I could see a formation. I stood up to the formation and whooshed in.”
Zhuo Qingqing coldly said, “Don’t know how to die.”
“This sister is right.” Long Xiaozhao compensated with a smile, “At that time, I was really a bit dim, and didn’t think about how dangerous it was behind such a spell formation. As a result, as soon as I went in, I felt that I had fallen into a dream, the entire heaven and earth turned into a dark red color, and everything I saw was upside down and wrong, a few boxes were floating and rotating in the air, and there was metal ah wood ah whatnot scattered everywhere in the air ……”
Metal, wood? Phantom formation? The crowd that had just experienced Xie Changsheng’s incident was incredibly sensitive, and Xue Mu’s face became several points more serious: “And then?”
“There is no then ……” Long Xiaozhao helplessly said, “This kind of weird place I really do not dare to step out, just wait for a box turned to the front of the smooth hand open the box to grab a handful, grabbed out of the three books to, a ground level technique, a Xuan level battle skills, a book on this devouring heaven treasure dictionary …… no more. Later I went a few times, even the entrance to the illusionary array can not get in, I think that person left after the array recovery, my practice is low can not be broken. I really said everything ah senior! The earth level technique is not on my body ……”
Xue Mu ignored his gongfu and pursued, “What did that person you said look like?”
“Tall, skinny old man, with a withered description and a pale face …… as if he was seriously injured, staggering when he walks, and coughing.” Long Xiaozhao said, “Now that I think about it, this person’s cultivation is unfathomable, if he wasn’t injured, I was afraid that I would have been discovered long ago if I hid there.”
Xue Mu and Zhuo Qingqing Luo Qianxue glanced at each other and saw the words “Xie Changsheng” in each other’s eyes. Regardless of appearance or cultivation, the time he appeared, the attributes of the secret realm, and the injuries on his body, they almost perfectly matched Xie Changsheng.
“This guy actually wasn’t heading towards the Thought Sect, the Thought Sect might have really taken the fall this time.” Xue Mu muttered, “What is he heading south for?”
Opening his mouth was the Mindfulness Sect? Long Xiaozhao gulped, suddenly realizing that this group of people were not ordinary conceptualized Jianghu experts, and that he might have run into a golden thigh!
Zhuo Qingqing said, “Gongzi, do you want to go to this secret realm to take a look?”
“If it’s another secret realm, going or not depends on the mood. This secret realm is clearly a private stronghold of Xie Changsheng, it must be investigated!” Xue Mu turned to Curry Night, “Is there a problem with breaking the illusion formation?”
Curry Night grinned proudly, “Don’t hit me in the future, and I’ll help you break the illusion formation.”
In Long Xiaozhao’s dumbfounded eyes, Xue Mu held Curry Night down on his lap and cracked and smacked him, “Is there a problem?”
The little girl wailed, “No, no, just go! It’s so humiliating to be watched by outsiders!”
Unintentionally actually discovered an important event related to their own crowd, at this time no one has the will to stay in the store and sleep, Zhuo Qingqing Luo Qianxue packed up the straw raincoat, turned to Long Xiaozhao: “Please lead the way, if this matter is accomplished, there will be no shortage of your benefits.”
Curry Night also pitifully followed behind, but Xue Mu suddenly called out to her, “Wait.”
Curry Night turned her head to look, but she saw Xue Mu sighing, tearing a chicken leg from a dish on the table that had barely been touched and handing it over to her, softly saying, “You only cared about being cute and begging for a fight all night, and you didn’t eat a single bite of the food, you’re really a little dummy.”
Curry Night flabbergastedly received the chicken leg, Xue Mu rubbed her little head and went out first.
Watching Xue Mu’s back turn out the door, Curry Night suddenly nibbled on a chicken leg and muttered, “Stinky Mu Mu.” Spreading her feet again, she chased out, “Wait for me!”
