Mortal Bones

"Three thousand people..."

Xu Taiping felt that he had underestimated the ruthlessness of these great monks.

"He must have been unable to find me, so he planted the Seven Tribulations Curse on all three thousand people, and would rather kill the wrong people than let them go."

Fairy Lingyue's tone became a little cold.

While chewing the last bite of meat pie in his mouth, Xu Taiping murmured in his heart: "Sister Lingyue, so, the seven killing disasters that my left eye showed me yesterday were to help me break the Seven Tribulations Curse?"

Fairy Lingyue was also stunned when she heard this.

Because she suddenly realized this.

"If this is true, then this time, it will be a long-distance contest between your left eye and Yiyeshu."

Fairy Lingyue also felt a little incredible.

She didn't expect that the left eye that Xu Taiping accidentally got could actually restrain a magical object like Yiyeshu.

"Now there is a big problem."

Xu Taiping picked up the porridge bowl and drank the last mouthful of porridge left in it. At the same time, he said to Fairy Lingyue in his heart:

"According to Liantong's deduction, I will be assassinated by a group of treasure-grabbing monks on my way back from Shiyizhai this afternoon. Sister Lingyue, do you think I should go or not?"

Shiyizhai is the largest business selling magic weapons, talismans and elixirs in the capital of Nanchu.

In addition to ordinary earth-level and lower magic weapons and elixirs, Shiyizhai's inner courtyard also has a special auction house for auctioning treasures of heaven-level and above.

In Xu Taiping's original plan, they would purchase the heaven-level true fire talismans needed for burning seeds in Shiyizhai, and the elixirs and talismans needed for the next three months or even longer.

Then they would get up and go to the Blood Rain Forest.

"I always forgot to ask you, in the scene you saw in your left eye yesterday, which treasure did you buy that was targeted by that group of people?"

Fairy Lingyue asked.

"A treasure called 'Panlong Tower'. According to the introduction of the company, it is a treasure for self-defense."

"After the magic weapon is activated, enter the tower and close the tower door. Within six years, people outside the tower cannot enter the tower and people inside the tower cannot leave. But other than that, there is nothing too special."

"But in the scene I saw with my left eye, Sister Lingyue, you value this treasure very much. You didn't tell me why at that time, but later we were targeted by those monks."

Xu Taiping recalled carefully, and then answered Fairy Lingyue in his heart.

"Panlong Tower? In my impression, there seems to be no powerful treasure with this name. Wait, you are not allowed to enter or leave for six years, and you can make me care so much... Could it be the trapped dragon tower?"

Fairy Lingyue suddenly exclaimed.

"Is this treasure powerful?"

Xu Taiping put down the bowl of porridge in his hand and asked Fairy Lingyue in his heart.

"On the surface, this treasure itself has no special magical power except that it is extremely solid, but in fact it is a rare magic weapon engraved with the Sumeru mustard seed array, and it is more likely to involve a great secret related to the real dragon."

"The five seats of our Linyuan Pavilion once offered a sky-high price to find this treasure."

"If possible, Taiping, you must get it. Even if you are not interested in the secret, you can use it as a magic weapon to trade with the five seats of Linyuan Pavilion."

Fairy Lingyue said with a hint of excitement.

Xu Taiping thought about it, then nodded secretly:

"Originally, I didn't plan to avoid Shiyi Zhai. After all, known dangers are much easier to deal with than unknown dangers."

"I think so too. Even if you avoid today's danger, as long as the bad luck does not dissipate, new dangers will still appear. So instead of avoiding it, it is better to find a way to resolve it."

Fairy Lingyue replied with approval.

At this moment, Lu Yun timidly asked Xu Taiping:

"Brother Taiping, are you full?"

Xu Taiping regained his composure, then smiled and handed the empty bowl to Lu Yun and said:

"This is the most delicious breakfast I have had since I came to Youyuntian."

"Brother Taiping, don't comfort me. You came from afar, and I didn't treat you well enough."

Lu Yun took the bowl with red eyes.

"Sister Ayun, I will borrow your Xuanyun Martial Arts Hall to entertain Master Chongde and others tonight. You can use this money to buy some wine and food."

Xu Taiping stuffed a bag of more than a thousand gold coins into Lu Yun's hands.

"This... so many gold coins?!~"

After seeing that the bag was full of gold coins, Lu Yun was stunned.

Youyuntian also used gold coins. When Xuanyun Martial Arts Hall was booming, she and Lu Wen even received a gold coin every month, so they were not unfamiliar.

It's just that this is the first time he has seen such a large amount of gold coins.

"Brother Taiping, I don't..."

"Your mother is my aunt, don't be so formal with me."

Xu Taiping decisively stuffed the purse back into Lu Yun's arms.

"And this money is for me to help Xuanyun Martial Arts School get through the difficult times. Do you really want to watch your aunt's hard work go to waste?"

He persuaded Lu Yun.

When he heard about Xuanyun Martial Arts School, Lu Yun's eyes, which were originally quite firm, suddenly loosened.

"You also know that I am here to participate in the Golden Scale Association. I will be in Youyuntian for the next six or seven years. Without Xuanyun Martial Arts School, where can I stay?"

Xu Taiping smiled at Lu Yun.

"Thank you, Brother Taiping. I will definitely use this money to manage Xuanyun Martial Arts School!"

Lu Yun thanked Xu Taiping and said in an extremely firm tone.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

At this moment, someone suddenly knocked on the door of the small courtyard.

"Who is it?"

Lu Yun stretched his neck and looked in the direction of the door, while carefully putting away his money bag.

"The young monk respects virtue and comes here to pay homage to Mr. Taiping."

The voice of monk Chongde sounded outside the door.
