Chapter 400: Everywhere you look is an enemy

Views:

Tao Xiyu rushed to Huqiu Tower before it got dark, but the first thing she said when she saw Ye Xun was: "What on earth are you doing? There are hundreds of masters from the Wugui Sect, and nearly 100 detectives have gathered outside." Two hundred elites, including Bai Wuchang Qin Yu, are here, are you going to start a battle in the Sword Pool?"

I shook my head and said: "I don't want to do this either, but there are still people waiting for us to save. If we don't unlock the secret of the eternal beauty, the life and death of our companions will be unpredictable. It's best if they don't want to do it. If they want to do it, let them do it! They Do you think I, Wang Huan, can’t kill people?”

Tao Xiyu couldn't help but shook her head, pointed to the person she brought and said: "His name is Liu Shuai, he is the best tomb robber I can find. We have just walked around a few times. If we want to open the sword pool, we must Touch the Tiger Hill Tower.”

Tao Xiyu said seriously after saying this: "I am here to remind you that whoever knocks down the Tiger Hill Tower will be wanted by the authorities, including you. I think it is better for you to withdraw from this mission in time. .”

I shook my head and said, "You are wrong. In fact, we have been deceived by legends all the time. 'The tomb of King Wu was opened and the Tiger Hill Pagoda fell' should be a false proposition."

I didn't wait for Tao Xiyu to speak and continued: "King Helu of Wu lived in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. The Tiger Hill Tower was built in the Later Zhou Dynasty and completed in the Northern Song Dynasty. Since the Ming Dynasty, due to the foundation, the Tiger Hill Tower has gradually tilted to the northwest, but It still stands and does not fall down, so the Tiger Hill Tower is also known as the Leaning Tower of Pisa in the East. Am I right?"

I looked at Liu Shuai next to Tao Xiyu: "From the Spring and Autumn Period to the Northern Song Dynasty, not everyone knew that the tomb of King Wu was hidden under Tiger Hill. The four words "Huqiu Sword Pool" were originally Yan Kai, the only son of Yan Zhenqing, a great calligrapher in the Tang Dynasty. Before the Huqiu Tower was completed, was there no master of theft who had the idea of Jianchi?"

Liu Shuai said bluntly: "There are indeed people who have gone into the sword pool, but no one has ever come out."

I pointed at the Tiger Hill Pagoda above me and said, "The tilt of the Tiger Hill Pagoda means that the foundation is unstable. This means that the people who built the Tiger Hill Pagoda did not let the foundation go deep into the mountain. They clearly wanted to build a seven-level and eight-sided tower. What's the point of building a pagoda without laying a solid foundation?"

Liu Shuai's eyes suddenly lit up: "They don't want to penetrate King Wu's tomb? No, the people who built the Tiger Hill Tower are already very close, and may even have penetrated the foundation into King Wu's tomb. This tower may be Menorah'."

Candlestick is a term used by tomb robbers, which means "dark under the lamp" - when it is inconvenient for tomb robbers to dig holes, they usually choose to build a house near the target, and use the cover of the house to rob the house. Robbers broke into the tomb. That house was called "Candlestick" by the tomb robbers.

"Using a tower as a candlestick?" Tao Xiyu seemed to be whispering to himself, "Isn't this a big deal? Can a burglary be done?"

"This..." Liu Shuai was at a loss for words for a moment, but I said: "Thieving the door can't do it, but the detective's hand can do it. Don't forget, there is a Mingxin Sect in the detective's hand."

If divided by origin, people from martial arts and Taoism each account for 40% of the Detective Hands, and the remaining 20% are from Buddhism. More than half of the people in Mingxin Sect are dressed as monks, but they are not real monks, they are just for the convenience of exploring gods.

I said solemnly: "Bai Wuchang dared to bring people here, which means they hold clues to Jianchi. They didn't go in because there were only one third of the clues."

Tao Xiyu raised his head and said, "How do you say this?"

I explained: "If the Mingxin Sect has mastered all the clues, they could have entered the Jianchi as early as the Northern Song Dynasty, so why wait until today? There must be puzzles under the Tiger Hill Tower that they have not been able to solve, so they only hold 30% of the clues. clue."

Liu Shuai's eyes shone slightly and he said, "What about the other two clues?"

I looked at Liu Shuai: "One is in my hand, and the other is in your hand."

I didn't wait for Liu Shuai to speak, and pointed my finger at Xia Qingqing, who remained silent all the time: "My clue is her."

When Xia Qingqing looked at me blankly, I had already said, "Teacher Xia, you don't know that you come from a family of psychics, right?"

Most people think that channeling means communicating with souls, with the channeler completing the communication between the living and the dead on behalf of the employer. In fact, channeling means communicating with spirits. In other words, psychics can not only communicate with souls, but also with gods and spirits, and even draw the power of gods into their bodies. In a sense, the world-famous Maoshan Shenda is also a kind of psychic.

There are certain psychics in every region. Their methods are different, but the results they can achieve are the same.

I sent someone to investigate Xia Qingqing's background. There is indeed nothing strange within the three generations of the Xia family, but going further back, there is a family of psychics with generations of psychics. But for some unknown reason, the Xia family has never had anyone capable of psychics since modern times. The inheritance of the psychic family was thus cut off, and Xia Qingqing became an ordinary university teacher.

I put my hands behind my back and said: "Although I don't know why the Xia family lost the inheritance of psychics, I am sure that the Xia family's psychic qualities have begun to gradually awaken in Xia Qingqing, and she is very likely to become a member of the Xia family." The most powerful psychic of all time.”

Liu Shuai was confused: "But what does this mean? You wouldn't say that the four beauties can be channeled by Xia Qingqing, right?"

I said softly: "In fact, she has begun to awaken Xi Shi's memory. As long as I can inspire her psychic qualities in Huqiu and make her a true psychic, I will have mastered the ability to enter the sword pool head-on. path of."

Liu Shuai raised his head and looked at me and said, "Aren't you a detective? You know how to..."

Although Liu Shuai did not finish what he said, the meaning was very obvious - only a psychic can inspire the psychic qualities of others. Liu Shuai is doubting my ability.

I took out the golden wolf mask and shook it: "I am a pure shaman. I may not be able to do things that others cannot do."

I put my hands behind my back and said, "To take a step back, what if I can't activate Xia Qingqing's psychic physique? I'm guarding the Huqiu Tower, will Bai Wuchang dare to come in? Since they dare to stumble me, then don't Blame me for not following the rules."

"Okay!" Liu Shuai gave a thumbs up and said, "I like to make friends like you. You said that the remaining one-third of the clues are our secret skills of stealing doors, right? I will go back to find helpers right away. Once you activate Xia Qingqing's psychic body, we'll take action."

Liu Shuai bowed his hand to me and left Huqiu Tower in a hurry. After he walked away, Ye Xuncai whispered: "Do you believe him?"

I said solemnly: "I believe in Tao Xiyu."

When I officially collided with the Wugui Sect, I learned that Liu Shuai had sold me within ten minutes of leaving the house.

That time, Liu Shuai did not come alone. He had already been in contact with Wugui Sect. This time, Feng Qianli, the elder of Dimen, came from Wugui Sect.

After hearing Liu Shuai's report, Feng Qianli couldn't help but sneered: "Wang Huan is quite capable. He simply suppressed Bai Wuchang."

Liu Shuai said slightly excitedly: "Then will my subordinate contact Wang Huan now?"

"Why should we contact Wang Huan?" Feng Qianli said, "What our Dimen has to do this time is to wait for the price. Neither Wang Huan nor Bai Wuchang can enter the sword pool without the help of our Dimen. Who can open it? If the price is high, we will cooperate with whomever. Just wait and give them a try first."

Liu Shuai said in a low voice: "Elder, if we keep waiting like this, will... will our business be ruined?"

"Of course not." Feng Qianli sneered, "I don't know what's going on with Wang Huan, but this time the Detective has reached the point where he has to crack the eternal beauty. If the Detective doesn't give up, Wang Huan will follow them. Fight hard to the end and wait to get rich!"

Liu Shuai said with some worry: "Elder, Tie Qing from Fengmen is also here. If he takes action..."

"Humph!" Feng Qianli snorted coldly, "I gave him ten courages, but he wouldn't dare. He is a man who forgets his integrity for small gains and does big things but cherishes his own life. He doesn't dare to go into the sword pond."

"The elder is wise!" Liu Shuai finally felt relieved.

The Wugui Sect was waiting for a price, but I began to preside over Xia Qingqing's spiritual enlightenment ceremony.

I spent a day filling the Huqiu Tower with candles, closed the door, and left Xia Qingqing in the candle-lit tower. I put on a golden mask outside, holding the Heaven-defying Sword, and stood guard. Sitting on the ground beside the fire.

I turned to look at Ye Xun and said, "Let's start!"

Ye Xun picked up the lighter and lit the connected candle wicks. The faint fire followed the lead I connected to the candle wicks and spiraled from the bottom of the tower upwards. The seven-story Tiger Hill Tower began to be lit layer by layer.

Soon after, the giant candle standing on the top of the tower suddenly burned, and when the nearly foot-high flames flew into the air, waves of obscure scriptures came to my mouth. The sound I sent out with my inner strength shook the surrounding area in an instant. Even if I was standing a hundred meters away, I could clearly hear me chanting sutras.

People who don't understand shamanic won't know what I'm reciting, but they can definitely hear that the scriptures I recite are coherent and have a strong rhythm. They are definitely not something made up like charlatans.

In fact, what I recited was indeed an authentic shamanic scripture—I studied shamanic secrets during the training period.

However, the secrets of shamanism are too obscure, and there is no real shamanic teaching. I have to rely on my own exploration. Apart from being able to memorize a few scriptures and dance a few shamanic dances, I am not even a beginner. Not achieved.

Even the so-called magic circle I put up is all made up. All I want is to create a visual impact. Other than that, I have no other purpose.

As the tone of my voice continued to rise, people also stood up and danced crazily around the fire.

Ye Xun saw the right moment and quietly fired two crossbow arrows tied with steel wires, and I jumped on the steel wires.

The steel wire that Ye Xun made was illuminated by light and shadow. It was impossible to see me stepping on the steel wire unless I walked closer. It would only feel like I was standing on the flames dancing.
