Two hundred and ninetieth eight chapters head power
Shopkeeper Zheng never expected that in just one night, Li Lijun, a "one of our own" who had just signed a long-term contract with his talisman shop, would bring him the news of the stolen treasure.
He originally planned to trick a coolie into helping with tedious and inefficient investigation work!
He asked Li Lijun again with some disbelief: "Seventh Lady, you...are you sure you read it correctly? Have you really found the snitch?!"
"I don't know if that was the snitch who hurt you yesterday." Li Lijun told him calmly, "Anyway, when he was talking to his accomplices, he clearly said, 'let the Zheng family see his face when he did it.'"
, and also said that after his injury improved slightly, the two of them took the treasures to sell outside the customs, and then defected to a sect. By then, your Zheng family would be unable to do anything to them, and so on. I think, if there is no second thief,
The thief who stole the Zheng family's treasures must be this person, right?"
That can indeed prove that it is this person!
Shopkeeper Zheng suddenly became excited: "Where is he now? Does he have accomplices?! He...he was injured?" He said the last sentence hesitantly, "Could it be burns?"
Li Lijun gave him an affirmative answer: "I was far away and didn't see his wounds, but when he talked to his companions, he did talk about burns. Because there was no suitable elixir, he also planned to let his companions go to the mortal world.
Find a doctor and get some herbs used by mortals to treat his burns. When I left, his accomplices had just left, and I saw that the man was going to Peijiazhai. His walking distance is not as good as mine.
Maybe we haven’t arrived at Peijiazhai yet.”
Shopkeeper Zheng took a deep breath: "There is a well-known doctor living in Peijiazhai, who is very good at treating trauma. The snitch's accomplices may have gone to find him. But it is impossible for him to find him... because this doctor
Now in the county town of Huxian!" The doctor's daughter gave birth to a baby, and he came to the city to visit his new-born grandson. Two of Shopkeeper Zheng's clerks were seriously injured. When the government came to inquire yesterday, an official invited this
The doctor came to treat them. Shopkeeper Zheng received them personally and heard that he planned to stay in the county town for a few days.
The snitch's accomplices are destined to be confused. Either he will find another doctor, or he will have to wait until dawn to go to the city to ask for someone. This means that before he goes back to join his accomplices, the snitch will be alone in the Qinling Mountains.
of!
Shopkeeper Zheng knew that his cultivation was not as good as that of the snitch, but now his injuries were almost healed, but the snitch was seriously injured, and he had no accomplices with him. If he couldn't subdue the person and recover the stolen treasure, then what else could he do?
How dare you face the family elders?!
This is his best chance to make a difference, and he must seize it!
Shopkeeper Zheng took Li Lijun to inquire about the details of the snitch. When he heard that the treasure was hidden in the water, he became even more excited. God helps him!
Li Lijun took the opportunity to inquire: "Is there anything wrong with this treasure? The injuries on the snitch were not caused by you, right?"
Shopkeeper Zheng now looked at Li Lijun with kindness and love in his eyes, and he spoke with less scruples: "Of course there is a problem! That is a bowl made from volcanic spiritual crystals. It is usually kept in a special warehouse.
There is a special protective array to isolate the heat emitted by it. An ordinary storage bag cannot hold it at all, and it will burn through the bag in at most half a day. Therefore, after I took it out of the store, I had to rush here quickly.
Come, borrow the warehouse here to store it. But it cannot be placed together with other spiritual materials and magic weapons to avoid burning the surrounding objects.
"The snitch only knows that the treasures that our Zheng's Talisman Store distributes to various branches must be extremely valuable. How does he know how powerful this fire crystal bowl is?! He might even use it as an ordinary magic weapon, stuffing it casually
He put it into his storage bag and hid it on his body. The longer he hid it, the more the fire crystal bowl would burn his skin. He thought he was really rich!"
Li Lijun hurriedly asked: "Then how to treat the burn caused by this magic weapon? If he threw the magic weapon into the water, it would not affect the effect of the magic weapon, right?"
Shopkeeper Zheng shook his head with a smile: "If he didn't keep this magic weapon close to his body, then as long as he found some fairy dew and elixir and spent ten and a half months on it, he should be able to cure the injury. But if he kept it close to his body...
I'm afraid I've already lost my life before I can get the medicine! As for hiding the magic in the water...you're really smart! It's not like burning coals. Putting it in the water can cool it down. Maybe even the mountain streams
It’s going to be boiled! Unless it’s the miraculous water fairy dew, no water can do anything to that fire crystal bowl!”
Li Lijun's face changed slightly. There is a severe drought in Guanzhong now. If the magic weapon can really boil the water in the Qinling mountain stream, it will definitely have a bad impact on the surrounding ecological environment, right? If I had known this...
She bit her lip and reminded Shopkeeper Zheng: "You'd better act quickly. The snitch is seriously injured now, and he has no companions. If the magic weapon really affects the water temperature of the stream, it might alarm the people living nearby.
.There are so many cultivators in the Qinling Mountains, how can you guarantee that no one among them will discover the snitch before you and take away the magic weapon?"
Shopkeeper Zheng suddenly became solemn: "Seventh Lady is right. I have to hurry up!" After saying that, he got up and went back to his room. When he reappeared, he had put on a fancy outfit and was holding a handful in his hand.
Long sword.
Li Lijun originally wanted to be lazy, but now she plans to give him a chance: "Although the city gate is not open yet, I dug a hole in the ground and came in. If shopkeeper Zheng doesn't mind, will you come with me?"
Of course Shopkeeper Zheng didn't mind. So the two of them went to a remote corner of the city. Li Lijun took the lead and got into an abandoned small thatched shed. The ground inside was flat. Shopkeeper Zheng was about to ask where the tunnel was when he saw the ground.
The top suddenly sank, revealing a round hole about three feet wide. He immediately closed his mouth and obediently followed Li Lijun into the hole.
This tunnel was dug in a hurry by Li Lijun. It can only be used for people to bend down and crawl. However, the distance is relatively short, less than a hundred meters in length. The entrances and exits at both ends are located in the blind spot of the guards at the top of the city.
There was no need to worry about being discovered at night. But when he came back tomorrow, if shopkeeper Zheng didn't want to arouse suspicion, he would have to find a way to explain why he suddenly appeared outside the city when he was supposed to stay in the city to recuperate.
After leaving the city, Li Lijun and Shopkeeper Zheng each rode on a smart horse. With the former guiding the direction, the latter arrived in front of the Qinling Mountains without much effort. Li Lijun did not dismount, so she pointed the way to him and motioned him to go on his own.
: "I'll stay here to keep watch for you, lest the snitch's accomplices come back and catch you off guard."
Shopkeeper Zheng blinked: "Won't the Seventh Lady sweep the formation for me?"
Li Lijun laughed: "I'm just your external Talisman Master. I'm very kind to be able to do this. Look at my young age, how can you bear to ask me to do dangerous things? Besides, you own
The treasure is lost, and it’s up to you to get it back yourself. What’s the point of letting me get involved? You should take the lead!”
Shopkeeper Zheng couldn't help but smile: "Okay. Zheng Duoxie will never forget the kindness of the Seventh Lady. The next step is my business. Just wait here for my good news!"
