Fu Shifeng

Chapter 16
"you you--"

Mr. Changqing was furious when he learned of this: "Nonsense, nonsense! How can such a precious thing be given to a Zoroastrian barbarian?"

Su Wangting said: "I have known Elder Mu for many years, and he is a trustworthy person. Before that, the Maocai Club took advantage of the vacancy, and we relied on the assistance of Elder Mu to fight against the army."

Mr. Changqing was stunned for a moment, and then he realized: "No wonder the Zoroastrianism suddenly gathered a crowd to make noise and asked us to hand over the holy objects. It turned out that you were the ones who caused trouble!"

Cheng Sanwu scolded at the side: "What? Are you still reasonable? When you shot to rob someone, didn't you think that you would end up like this?"

The corners of Mr. Changqing's mouth twitched, as if for a while, Su Wangting continued: "And before that, Elder Mu mentioned to me that the Mani beads may not be sacred objects of Zoroastrianism. I will hand over the Mani beads... or the star marrow Giving it to him is to use the Zoroastrian forces as a cover. As for the reason behind this, Mr. Changqing should understand."

"The Protectorate's Mansion? No." Mr. Changqing felt a dull pain in his eye sockets, and gritted his teeth, "That night we were attacked successively by the dragon in the sand and the horsemen. It must have been carefully planned. Someone has been secretly plotting to seize the star marrow!"

"I think so too." Su Wangting echoed: "To tell you the truth, Mr. Cheng Sanwu was also attacked by monsters on the way to escort the star marrow. It can be seen that there are masters behind the scenes paying close attention to the movement of this thing, and there are also a group of thieves under his command. With monsters, not very human beings can deal with it."

"So you handed it over to the Zoroastrians?" Mr. Changqing still couldn't accept it: "At this juncture, even entrusting the Star Essence to the Protectorate is better than handing it over to the barbarians."

"Of course you would say that." Cheng Sanwu was not surprised at all: "Wu Maocai colluded with the Duhufu because he is the son of the Duke of England. Otherwise, with the strength of your Maocai Society, you really think you can fight us ?”

Mr. Changqing was not forgiving, and said sarcastically: "Idiot and reckless man, if I hadn't been seriously injured, I would have told you to appreciate the supreme magic method in "Yin Fu Tian Ji Lun"!"

Cheng Sanwu clasped his hands together until his joints creaked: "Then I can tell you clearly that Wu Mao is only blessed with spells, and he was thrown half to death by me anyway. Your little spells are useless."

Mr. Changqing's cheeks twitched, and his anger could not be dispelled. He despised Cheng Sanwu, a martial artist like Cheng Sanwu from the bottom of his heart, but at this moment he didn't dare to contradict him, lest the other party really want to take his life.

"Speaking of spells." Afu spoke again at this time: "You are like this now, is it because of the backlash of spells?"

Mr. Changqing lowered his head and admitted in a low voice: "Not bad."

"Haven't you ever thought about the reason?" Afu tentatively asked.

"Why?" Mr. Chang Qing fell into deep thought, then seemed to think of something, and immediately sat cross-legged on the couch, making seals with both hands.

"This... How did the air mechanism between heaven and earth become like this?"

A moment later, Mr. Changqing's nostrils were bleeding, and he wiped it in a panic, with an unbelievable expression on his face.

Su Wangting stuffed a cloth handkerchief into the opponent's hand, and took the opportunity to ask, "Does the master know the reason?"

"It's an enchantment! An enchantment that is too big to add!" Mr. Changqing's tone trembled with his fingers.

Su Wangting and Cheng Sanwu didn't know much about spells, so they looked at Afu at the same time, and she asked, "Is it the barrier that protects the dojo's cave?"

"Almost." Mr. Changqing hurriedly added: "Whether it is the Six Ding Liujia method of the Taoist school, or the Four Heavenly Kings Protecting Mantra of the Buddhist school, or even the rope knots and paper money sprinkled by the warlocks, they all use mana to demarcate and distinguish between inside and outside."

Afu asked again: "But no matter what sect or faction, the formation of the barrier is to prevent foreign invasion, and it is always safe inside the barrier. How can it cause magic backlash?"

Mr. Changqing laughed out of composure: "Don't you understand? I am a Taoist, if I rush into the mandala and diamond ground arranged by the Buddhist monks, I will not be able to connect the heaven and the earth with my true energy and summon the wind and thunder , and even be besieged by the defender Jialan.

"On the contrary, if there is a bald donkey with no eyes who dares to break into the Taoist cave, the maze and cloud barriers alone are enough to block the way forward. They are still warriors, and they are all reduced to mortals."

"Banning metal weapons? No wonder Lao Su's iron palm kung fu can't hurt Wu Maocai." Cheng Sanwu sneered: "Unfortunately, I can defeat him without weapons."

Mr. Changqing couldn't refute it. He really didn't expect Cheng Sanwu to beat Wu Maocai with his bare hands.

"That is to say, now someone has set up an enchantment to cover the Western Regions, causing you to be backlashed when you cast spells." Afubi pupil turned: "But Wu Maocai has magic protection on him, so what's going on?"

Mr. Changqing pondered for a moment and asked, "Is there any water? I'm thirsty."

Su Wangting didn't have much to say, and poured him a bowl of warm water. Mr. Changqing drank it up, panting for a while, and said: "I don't know the specific situation, but such a vast barrier, not to mention how profound mana is required, is not enough. It must not be comprehensive. I guess that the backlash against spellcasting is all due to the use of one's own true energy to connect the Yin and Yang of the world. And the spell that blesses Mr. Wu is the power of the gods and the distribution of energy, so there is no hindrance."

"What is it? I don't understand." Cheng Sanwu was very confused.

Su Wangting explained: "Mr. Changqing blessed Wu Maocai with spells, which is equivalent to borrowing a piece of clothes for him to wear. Driving wind and thunder is like scooping water from a pond. Now the Western Regions do not allow scooping water, if you do it forcibly To be punished...is it appropriate for me to say that?"

Su Wangting's last sentence was to ask Mr. Changqing, and he nodded critically: "Although it is rough, it is basically the same."

"Who can set up such an enchantment?" Afu seemed to be more concerned about this matter.

"I don't know." Mr. Changqing shook his head and said: "I have never seen such a vast barrier, even the two immortal masters Luo and Ye in the court can't do it!"

Su Wangting said: "But now it seems that the person behind the scenes who intends to seize the star marrow is quite skilled in magic."

"Perhaps there is another way." Mr. Changqing said: "If you are well prepared at the origin of the land veins where the spiritual energy of mountains and rivers gathers and condenses, you should be able to activate the vast barrier."

"Is there such a place in the Western Regions?" Afu asked.

Mr. Changqing thought for a moment and said: "When I was on the way to Quzhi City, I saw the majestic Tianshan Mountains and the majestic weather. The Western Regions were divided into two roads, the North and the South. The melted water from the glaciers nourished the vitality of the vegetation and nourished the people. If there is such a blessed place, it should be in the Tianshan Mountains."

"It's just nonsense." Cheng Sanwu sneered and said, "The Tianshan Mountains stretch for thousands of miles, who knows where this blessed place is?"

"It's good for a fool like you if you don't speak, but once you speak, the stench of ignorance fills the world, and I can't breathe!" Mr. Changqing retorted.

Cheng Sanwu took a step forward and threatened: "Then I will strangle you to death now, so that you won't have to struggle to catch your breath!"

Mr. Changqing is also a stubborn person who refuses to give in: "You have this strength, why not keep it and kill yourself."

"Okay, okay! They are not three-year-olds anymore, so why fight?" Su Wangting hurriedly dissuaded the two.

"Director Su, I think you still don't understand the current situation." Mr. Changqing said: "There is such a master behind the scenes who occupies the acupoint of the blessed land, lays a vast enchantment, and can command powerful demons and all walks of life. Bandit, do you think it is safe to hand over the star marrow to the Zoroastrian elders? Once the star marrow falls into the hands of this master behind the scenes, it will be a catastrophe!"

At this time, Su Wangting also had to reflect on his own actions. Mr. Chang Qing turned his head slightly: "The woman who spoke just now, you are not an ordinary person, are you? I sensed a pure yin energy, deep and unpredictable."

"Just call me Afu." Afu answered casually without going into details.

Mr. Changqing went on to say: "You guys snatching the star marrow is nothing more than giving your life to Prime Minister Lu. But if you lose the star marrow, guess if the vicious and vicious Prime Minister Lu will protect you?" ?”

Su Wangting asked back: "Wu Maocai was buried in the desert, how will Mr. Changqing deal with himself? I don't think he will be seen by the British public."

"Do you think that I follow Mr. Wu because I want to cling to the powerful?" Mr. Changqing retorted: "If you think so, you're underestimating me!"

"Oh? I also ask Mr. Changqing to give me some advice." Su Wangting was persuasive and persuasive.Cheng Sanwu laughed secretly when he saw this, this Mr. Changqing had a good temper and high self-esteem, but he was manipulated by Lao Su's few words at will.

Mr. Changqing raised his head proudly: "My teacher, Daguan Daoist, watched the stars and looked at the atmosphere. He predicted that the chaos would come and the disaster would start in the northwest, so I joined the Maocai Society to help Mr. Wu explore the situation in the Western Regions and resolve the chaos in the Star Essence. You vulgar ordinary people, how can you know our intentions!"

"What nonsense, chaos is coming?" Cheng Sanwu scolded immediately: "I think you are the seedlings of chaos. If the Maocai Society hadn't intervened in it, we would have sent that broken star essence to Chang'an!"

"Every man is not guilty, but he is guilty of carrying a jade. The fact that the star marrow passed through the Western Regions is one of the chaos!" Mr. Changqing was so anxious that he repeatedly patted the bed: "Have you ever thought that this thing should not be sent! Don’t honor the virtuous, so that the people will not fight; don’t value hard-to-find goods, so that the people will not steal! Don’t you understand these simple principles?”

"What you said, sir, is just a way to guard against inevitability." Su Wangting sighed softly: "But now that the star marrow has indeed come to the Western Regions, causing competition among all parties, it is natural to consider how to deal with it. Since you guessed that there are masters behind the scenes borrowing the blessing of the spirit point Can you find the specific location by laying down the enchantment?"

"What? Your Baochang Society still manages these things?" Mr. Changqing questioned.

"If things are really as Mr. said, then it is only natural for us to make extra preparations." Su Wangting said frankly.

Mr. Changqing eats the soft but not the hard. After a moment of contemplation, he said: "I don't know much about the geography of the mountains and rivers of the Western Regions, but I just vaguely sensed a trace of the earth's atmosphere rising, such as the jade cloud and the floating light of the ancient cellar. With half of the dew hidden, the spiritual acupoint of the blessed land should be located somewhere in the mountains where there is a huge water pool."

"A place with abundant water?" Afu asked, "Can it be counted if there are continuous glaciers on the Tianshan Mountains?"

"The glacier and the water lake have different images, how can they be generalized?" Mr. Changqing was a little annoyed.

"Then it can only be a lake in the mountains." Su Wangting frowned and said, "I remember that there seems to be a big Tianchi Lake at the northern foot of Tianshan Mountain."

Mr. Changqing smiled contemptuously: "Even if you know the location of this place, it's useless. How can someone who can activate such a vast barrier be defenseless? Why don't you think about it carefully, how will you face the British after killing Mr. Wu?" The Duke and the Protectorate."

Su Wangting calmly said, "Sir, you don't have to worry about this matter for us, and please rest assured that you can recuperate here for the time being."

After leaving the courtyard, Cheng Sanwu was still aggrieved: "You just let him go like this?"

"Wu Maocai is dead, we don't need to kill them all." Su Wangting persuaded: "And I let him go to leave a way out. If things are difficult to deal with, we need someone to mediate for us."

"Just that stinky ox temper?" Cheng Sanwu crossed his arms, shook his head and said, "I can't trust him."

Su Wangting said: "People who practice Taoism like Mr. Changqing will inevitably think highly of themselves, but as long as we treat him with courtesy and respect, he will naturally be used by us."

"You know these things better than me, so it's up to you." Cheng Sanwu waved his hand, too lazy to ask any more questions.

"I also sometimes make mistakes." Su Wangting frowned and said, "Mr. Changqing's words are not unreasonable. It may not be a good idea to give the star essence to Mu Xid."

"Then go get the things back?" Cheng Sanwu asked.

"Now? We just came back from the Fire Worship Temple." Su Wangting was deeply troubled: "Besides, there are guards from the Duhu Mansion patrolling outside Baochangfang, so I can't leave now."

Cheng Sanwu didn't care: "It's just a few people, if you can't do it, just sneak out at night, I guarantee they won't find out."

Su Wangting also felt that this plan was feasible, nodded slightly, and then looked at Afu who was standing aside under the shadow of the eaves.

"What do you think, Miss Afu?" Su Wangting asked.

"I don't like the smell of the Fire Worship Temple, so I won't go with you." Afu said with a little disgust: "But looking at you like this, it seems that you are not worried about your current situation? The Duhu Mansion came to search the house today , Maybe you will be arrested and sent to prison tomorrow."

"In the final analysis, I'm just a businessman. No matter how much money I earn, I'm still a cheap business. What can I do if the government comes to make trouble?" Su Wangting is very open-minded: "And Wen Changshi's actions are in line with the law, even if the court comes in the future He can deal with people asking questions and pursuing them."

"You can see it." Afu chuckled, and then looked at Cheng Sanwu: "You are full of fighting and killing, can't you learn from others?"

"You want to care?!" Cheng Sanwu retorted.

"Old Cheng, you and I will go to the Fire Temple tonight to find Mu Xide." Su Wangting thought about it and said, "As for whether to get back the star essence, let me think about it. If Zoroastrianism can protect This thing, that’s even better.”

Cheng Sanwu also rarely turned his head: "If there is really an expert behind the scenes who wants to steal the star marrow, it must be tonight. And we might be able to take this opportunity to catch this person!"

Su Wangting hurriedly said to Afu: "Look, Lao Cheng is still very smart when talking about fighting!"

"It's like she suddenly appeared in the inn in Hongsha Town!" Cheng Sanwu complained.

Afu was not displeased by this, but instead said, "I've changed my mind, and I will go to the Fire Temple with you tonight to see if someone really shows up to steal the treasure."
