Chapter 49 The Underground Thief

After finally shaking off the dog skin plaster behind him, Wu Shengli felt extremely relaxed, and left without hesitation.

Inexplicably entangled with a female snitch for a long time, feeling a little unfavorable, Wu Sheng hurriedly shook off this ominous thought, and went to the agreed meeting point - the lotus pond behind the post house.

The posthouse is actually a small hill in the city, about seven or eight feet high, with a circle of more than half a mile. The area is not small, and it is surrounded by high walls from bottom to top.

There is a pond of tens of acres next to the hill, the wall is the embankment, and the embankment is the wall.The pond is full of thousand-petal lotus half a person's height and king lotus the size of a washbasin.Wu Sheng got down from the pond, raised his breath and lightened his body, sat on a big lotus and slid towards the center of the pond.

I don't know when, the night rain fell pattering down, the rain was not heavy, completely covering up Wu Sheng's movements.When they came to the center, the umbrella-like lotus leaves blocked the drizzle, and Wu Sheng waited quietly under the lotus leaves.

The father-in-law and Taohuaniang arrived one after another. Like Wu Sheng, they rowed over with the king lotus as a boat.

The man who hoeed the lotus carefully selected the lotus pods around him, picked a few of the best ones and put them in his bag, his face was full of joy: "Okay, good, good!"

Taohuaniang randomly picked a lotus pod, curled up on the big king lotus, lay down and peeled the lotus seeds and put them in her mouth. After eating two seeds, she frowned and spat them out.

Wu Sheng vaccinated the two people who arrived first: "It's a bit lively in the city tonight...Pengcheng guards the Dasou Market...There are still many masters."

Tao Hua Niang let out an oh, and continued peeling the lotus petals.

Seeing that she and Zhang He didn't seem to care, Wu Sheng asked, "Aren't you worried?"

Tao Huaniang said: "There is Boss Shi, anyway, just listen to him."

"So confident in Boss Shi?"

"Well... do you know that the Qi State defeated Lu 12 years ago? The Qi army went down six cities in a row, and the soldiers went to Changshao. Changshao is the North Key of Qufu. If Changshao is lost, the country will not be protected. Changshao guards fear The Qi army ran away with the troops. Boss Shi was the leader of the city gate at that time. He led 800 people to defend Changshao for ten days. For Shimen..."

"So, isn't this Boss Shi's real name?"

"Anyway, we call him Shimen."

Shimen stepped on a beauty lotus and came quietly.Wu Sheng looked at him, and suddenly admired him a little. What he admired was not his cultivation, but his story.

Shimen's cultivation level is indeed higher than that of the group of four, but a cultivator in the state of refining gods, Wu Sheng has seen countless people before, and he himself was once a great assassin at the peak of refining gods.The key point is that a cultivator in the realm of refining the gods with [-] remnant soldiers was able to block the surging army of the Qi State for ten days. Wu Sheng couldn't imagine how he could do it.

Based on this, he suddenly had some confidence in Shimen.

After Shimen arrived, he didn't say much, and took the lead to approach the post, and when he came to the wall of the post, he plunged into the water.The father-in-law of Hoe He followed into the water, while Taohuaniang frowned, pouted for a moment, hesitated, pinched her nose and jumped down.

Wu Sheng had no choice but to follow behind, holding his breath, dived into the water, and saw a narrow channel underwater on the shore.

Shimen went in first, followed by Mrs. Hee He, Tao Hua Niang, and finally Wu Sheng.This waterway is quite long, and it is only seventeen or eighty feet away when you swim along it to the end.

Shimen pointed upwards, indicating upwards, and the four of them surfaced one after another, already in the deep well.

The mouth of the well was locked, and it was a rainy night, and it was pitch black down the well. If you are not a practitioner, you might just be caught blind.

Shimen jumped out of the water, fluttered straight up under the well cover, grabbed the well wall, and listened for a long time, but did not hear any more movement, only the subtle ticking sound of raindrops falling on the well cover.Only then did he gesture and let Wu Sheng and others go up.

Wu Sheng couldn't jump several feet from the water, so he obediently followed the well wall and swam up like a gecko.The fact that he was "injured" was already known to everyone, and no one doubted it. Taohuaniang once speculated that Wu Sheng must have hid in Langshan to avoid revenge.

When Wu Sheng went up to the well cover, the man who hoeed the lotus took out the hoe stick, and the hoe stick stretched instantly, just enough to support the well wall, forming a beam.

Wu Sheng sat on the beam again.

Shimen pointed to the manhole cover, and said in a low voice: "Unlock it." Then, he grabbed it casually, took out a huge door bolt, and stared at the manhole cover solemnly.For a cultivator like him, who can incorporate his favorite magic weapon into the sea of ​​qi and nourish it with his spiritual consciousness, it is his natal magic weapon.This is a skill that monks in the Qi Refining Realm are envious of. Back then, Wu Shengwen raised the Jasper Long Sword, a magic weapon of his own destiny. Unfortunately, it was captured by others, and it made me cry when I said it.

Seeing that he was so solemn, the father-in-law of the hoe held his hoe tightly, and Tao Huaniang took out the petals of peach blossoms, spat out her true essence, and the peach blossoms opened up to form an umbrella.

Not surprisingly, it really was "unlocking". Judging by the response of Shimen and the other three, this manhole cover is obviously not a simple "iron lock", and it must imply a powerful counterattack method.

Wu Sheng held his breath and put the manhole cover into the Tai Chi ball to visualize. If something went wrong, he would jump into the well and leave the rest to the other three—this was agreed in advance.

The spiritual power in the manhole cover is sucked into the Tai Chi ball, and with the rotation of the Tai Chi ball, it is transformed from the yin and yang fish into grains of spiritual sand, which flow into the small island of Qi Sea.

Shimen and the other three were leaning on the well wall, staring at the manhole cover and Wu Sheng under the manhole cover with extreme vigilance, just in case of any accident.

In a place of right and wrong, Wu Sheng no longer held back, and went all out. After more than half an hour, the last grain of spiritual sand was transformed, and he let out a long breath and resigned!
This manhole cover is indeed a magic weapon, and it is a very good magic weapon. Wu Sheng judged that it is a high-grade middle-grade magic weapon. It transforms a lot of spiritual sand, with more than [-] grains.

Wu Sheng got off the crossbeam, slipped down for a certain distance, and gave way to the position. Shimen raised the stone bar and signaled to the man who hoeed the lotus. The man who hoeed the lotus raised his stick and slowly stretched it towards the well cover.

Time seemed to stand still, four pairs of eyes stared at the hoe stick, the hoe stick paused slightly under the manhole cover, and poked upward...

The expected magic weapon counterattack did not happen, the alarm bell did not ring, and the manhole cover fell like dust.Peach Blossom Lady turned the peach blossom umbrella, and a gust of wind blew out, rolling all the powder into the umbrella.

All three of them came over curiously to look at the broken bits in the umbrella, Shimen and Mrs. Hehe nodded, and Tao Huaniang threw the broken bits into the well and smiled at Wu Sheng.

It was still the man who hoeed the lotus at the head, and turned out from the mouth of the well. After a while, he turned his head and gestured to the well, and everyone filed out.

The posthouse is built along the hill. It is located on the mountainside at the northeast corner of the hill. There are lush bamboo pavilions, strange flowers and strange stones. You can see half of the dark Pengcheng below, and the tower hanging on the tower in the distance. lantern.

In the streets and alleys of the city, you can still see a string of sparse lights swimming back and forth, Shimen finally couldn't help smiling, and said softly: "The guards have been mobilized, and the post is empty."

He Zhang Humane said: "Pengcheng is also strange, building the posthouse on a high place in the city..."

Shimen said: "Pengcheng controls the key points and controls Huaisi. Great powers such as Qi, Chu, and Song are closely watching. They demanded that the posthouse be set up at a high place, with the intention of monitoring Pengcheng. How dare Mr. Xu disobey?"
