"More than 50%? But I don't feel any changes in my body?" Qiu Xingbo asked doubtfully. You must know that if a top master like Qiu Xingbo wants to increase the power of five percent, it will take at least twenty years of practice. , now it only took more than half an hour, and it feels ridiculous and funny just thinking about it.
Chen Xiaomu nodded heavily and said with great certainty: "Master Qiu, believe it or not, you just shouted and shattered a strong celadon wine glass. Have you ever had such skill before? You You can’t say this is a trick I played, right?”
Qiu Xingbo thought about it. He just followed Chen Xiaomu's instructions and didn't use his original internal strength at all. He just roared and shattered the celadon wine glass half a foot away. It can be seen that the content of this bowl Without the so-called spiritual energy, I couldn't explain where the sudden power on my body came from.
Qiu Xingbo smiled and said: "Chen Prince Consort, since you have spiritual energy in this bowl that can quickly increase your skills, why don't you use the spiritual energy in this bowl to increase your own skills?"
Chen Xiaomu had no choice but to smile bitterly and said: "Master Qiu, you don't know something. The spiritual energy in my bowl can only increase my own skill. In other words, I am now a scholar who has no power to bind a chicken. Then after reaching out and increasing my skill in this bowl, I will probably only be able to catch an old hen!"
"Haha" Qiu Xingbo laughed out loud at Chen Xiaomu's metaphor. He reached out from his arms and took out a gray-white hemispherical object the size of a later table tennis ball, and said to Chen Xiaomu: "Chen Prince Consort, I'll put my hand into the bowl again. You Help me increase my power, and I will give you this luminous pearl! How about it?"
Chen Xiaomu quickly shook his head and said: "Master Qiu, you must not do this. The spiritual energy in this bowl is still formed by condensing the essence of the sun and the moon. With just one hand, you have absorbed all the spiritual energy condensed in the bowl over the past year. If you want It will take at least half a year to form new spiritual energy, and the increased power you gained from absorbing the spiritual energy in this bowl is just virtual power. You have to go back and practice in seclusion for more than three months before these skills can really be added to your own power. If you cannot practice in seclusion for more than ten days during this period, then the five successes increased by the spiritual energy in this bowl will dissipate from you on its own."
''oh! " Qiu Xingbo was obviously surprised by Chen Xiaomu's words, and his expression became anxious unconsciously. He quickly said: "Chen Prince Consort, is there any way to extend the time for retreat for a few days? "
Chen Xiaomu spread his hands and said helplessly: "Master Qiu, there is really nothing I can do for you!"
Qiu Xingbo paused, reached for the black bowl, put it in his arms, and turned to leave. Chen Xiaomu hurriedly said: "Master Qiu, are you going back to practice in seclusion?" Qiu Xingbo nodded hurriedly.
Chen Xiaomu asked, "Then how will I hand over this treasure's spell to you in two months?"
Qiu Xingbo thought for a moment, then took out the gray-white hemisphere, handed it to Chen Xiaomu, and said: "I will leave this half of the luminous pearl with you. In two months, I will send someone to bring the other half of the luminous pearl." Looking for you, if the two can become one, you can just give him the spell."
Chen Xiaomu looked at the luminous pearl that Qiu Xingbo pushed over and said hesitantly: "Master Qiu, please don't blackmail me. I heard people say that luminous pearls can emit light. This gray-white thing you gave me is not like a luminous pearl! Then you want to If you ask me for a real luminous pearl, I don’t have it!”
Upon hearing this, Qiu Xingbo glared at Chen Xiaomu and said plausibly: "Everything I like is always snatched openly, so I don't bother to do those things like chickens and dogs!" As he said that, he took out the other half of the gray-white ball and handed it to Chen Xiaomu. He put the two hemispheres together and took another look, then connected the other half of the gray-white ball. Before Chen Xiaomu could align the two halves, he just heard a "pop" sound, and the two halves of the ball were instantly connected like two magnets. It became a whole, and the color of the ball instantly turned into crystal clear dark green, emitting a green light.
Chen Xiaomu couldn't help but open his mouth, thinking, "Is this really the legendary Night Pearl?"
"How's it going? Chen Fuma, I didn't lie to you, did I?" Qiu Xingbo said proudly: "I was not willing to let go of this luminous pearl when Qian Huawen, the richest man in the Qin State, paid 500,000 taels of silver!"
Chen Xiaomu teased: "You can sell it to him first and then go to him to snatch it back!"
"No, no!" Qiu Xingbo said sternly: "This is the bottom line for what I do. Even if I regret anything that passes through my hands, I will never take it back. Otherwise, no one will dare to take it from you in the future. Buying something on hand?"
Chen Xiaomu nodded in agreement, "That's true, this is the so-called thief's way!"
Qiu Xingbo didn't want to waste any more time, so he took back the Night Pearl from Chen Xiaomu, divided it into two hemispheres again, handed one of the hemispheres to Chen Xiaomu, and then said: "Chen Prince Consort, let's say goodbye, if we are destined, we will meet again in the future!" "After saying that, without waiting for Chen Xiaomu's reply, he jumped up and looked at himself in mid-air. It was like a breeze passing by. Qiu Xingbo's figure in the air was as fast as a meteor. In the blink of an eye, the only thing that fell into Chen Xiaomu's eyes was There is a small black dot in the distance. It can be seen that Qiu Xingbo, the leader of the Five Poison Sect, has reached the top level in Qinggong alone. There are very few people in the world who can compare with him. "
After sending away the devil Qiu Xingbo, Chen Xiaomu finally felt relieved. Looking at Wei Yu standing under the tree with a dejected look, Chen Xiaomu couldn't help laughing, and Wei Yu heartily glared at him. , said angrily: "You can still laugh. Do you know what kind of person this Qiu is? How dare you give him the treasure bowl that can quickly increase your skill!"
"What kind of person?" Chen Xiaomu asked with laughter, "Is he someone who commits murder, arson, and commits all kinds of evil?"
Wei Yuxin nodded slightly and said: "You are right! The Five Poison Sect is originally an evil sect and has a bad reputation in the world. However, they are very good at poisoning. Therefore, people in the world have a bad opinion of the people of the Five Poison Sect. They are all quite jealous! Even if we bump into them accidentally, we try to go around them as much as possible!"
Chen Xiaomu asked: "Besides using poison, what are the real martial arts skills of the people in the Five Poison Sect?"
"The disciples in the Five Poison Sect are all very strong in martial arts!" Wei Yuxin told Chen Xiaomu that most of the people who can hold the position of elder or above in the Five Poison Sect can rank within fifty in the world. After all, To apply poison, one must be strong in martial arts, and at least be able to fight with the opponent for more than ten or twenty rounds. Otherwise, the opponent will be wiped out by the opponent before he has time to apply poison, and even if he tries to apply poison again, he will be destroyed. The opportunity presented itself.
"Haha" Chen Xiaomu couldn't help but sneer and said to himself: "It seems that this person who can make the head of the Five Poison Sect come forward in person has a lot of background!"
Wei Yu didn't care about this. After she finished speaking, she stretched out her hand in front of Chen Xiaomu and said jokingly: "Prince-in-law, you haven't forgotten what you promised yesterday, right?"
Chen Xiaomu knew that Wei Yuxin was asking for money from him, so he pretended to be confused and said, "What's the matter? I'm a very righteous person, and I promise a lot of things all day long. I forgot about it!"
Seeing Chen Xiaomu suddenly put on a ruthless look, Wei Yu couldn't help but clenched his fists and sneered: "It seems that the prince-in-law is really a noble man who forgets things. Do you want me to remind you?"
A good man doesn't want to take advantage of the situation. Chen Xiaomu was startled by Wei Yuxin's attitude. He knew very well that these people in the world were moody, and they might be able to punch him in a hurry. He hurriedly said with a smile: "Look at my brain, my age. It’s so easy to forget things, but I remembered what you said! Isn’t it just money? This is easy to say, I will do it right away! "
''Okay, let's go get the money! "Wei Yuxin didn't want to talk nonsense to him, turned around and left.
"Hey, hey! Why are you leaving right now?" Chen Xiaomu shouted hurriedly to Wei Yuxin's back. He didn't expect that Wei Yuxin would just leave without leaving any space for him.
Wei Yuxin turned around and looked at him and said angrily: "Since you just gave that bowl to the head of the Five Poison Sect, I can't delay for a moment anymore. I have to rush back to the master as soon as possible and report this matter to the master. !”
Chen Xiaomu asked strangely: "If I gave a bowl to that old devil, what would it do to you?"
Wei Yuxin glared at him and said angrily: "Yesterday you asked me to go to Zhang Mansion to look for Zhou Huiniang and others. It happened that the zombies from the Zombie Hall in Wudumen hijacked them in Zhang Mansion and killed many of them at the same time. The official who went to investigate the case had no choice but to kill all the dozen zombies! In short, now I have formed a relationship with the Wudu Sect, and Qiu Xingbo, the head of the Wudu Sect, himself He is ranked third among the masters of martial arts in the world by Jianghu people. Now that he has obtained this treasure bowl from you, I am afraid that his skills will improve greatly in a short time. By then, there will be no opponents who can suppress him in the martial arts world. With his demonic nature, It will definitely cause a bloody storm in the world, and in the end it may even threaten the rule of the world by the current imperial courts!"
''ha! It turned out to be because of this! " Chen Xiaomu felt funny when he heard this. He just used the principle of sound resonance in physics to coax Qiu Xingbo, but unexpectedly, Wei Yuxin who was nearby was also frightened.
Chen Xiaomu smiled easily and said: "Miss Wei, to tell you the truth, the bowl that Qiu took was of no use to improving his skill!"
''You lied to me! Wei Yuxin looked at Chen Xiaomu with wide eyes and said angrily: "I saw with my own eyes that he shattered a good wine glass with just one drink!" "
Chen Xiaomu shook his head and smiled: "I really didn't lie to you. There is a secret here. I will tell you slowly in the future!"
Wei Yuxin said doubtfully: "No, what's your secret? You have to tell me now, otherwise I won't be able to let go!"
"Haha, female donor, let me tell you that the bowl that Prince Consort Chen gave to Poison Centipede just now is fake!" Before Wei Yuxin finished speaking, a long laugh suddenly came from the big cypress tree behind him. A fat monk in gray robes floated down from the top of the big cypress tree like a big bird!
Chen Xiaomu and Wei Yuxin were startled and took several steps back at the same time! Chen Xiaomu was surprised and said: "Monk, who are you?" What are you doing hiding in a tree? "
The fat monk smiled and said: "Didn't you call me monk? And you asked me who I am! Of course I am hiding in this tree because I want to see what the treasure in the hand of Prince Consort Chen is!"
Chen Xiaomu sighed for a moment, then laughed and said: "Monk, you are late, the leader of the Five Poison Sect took the treasure away!"
The fat monk shook his head, "Consort Chen, don't lie to the monk. The bowl taken by the head of the Five Poison Sect Qiu must be a fake!"
"Oh!" Now Chen Xiaomu became curious. This so-called treasure was originally fabricated out of thin air by himself, but when the monk said it, he was able to make another fake one for him. Is it still true? He wanted to hear what the monk was thinking, so he asked curiously: "Monk, why do you conclude that the bowl I gave to Master Qiu is a fake?"
The fat monk asked back: "Prince Consort Chen, then why did you tell this girl that the bowl that Master Qiu of the Five Poison Sect took was useless! In this case, if it is not false, can it be true?"
Chen Xiaomu teased: "Ha! You even heard this! Didn't you hear what I said at the beginning that you need to use the spiritual energy condensed in this bowl to improve your skills, and you must have another spell to complement each other? I am now If the spell is not given to him for the time being, the treasure will of course be useless!"
Hearing this, the fat monk suddenly understood. He touched his bald head with his hand and said with a smile: "Prince Consort Chen, how about we make a deal?"
Chen Xiaomu waved his hands repeatedly and said: "Goodbye, the monk is very poor now, but there is no money for you to beg for alms. You'd better go somewhere else as soon as possible!"
The fat monk smiled slightly and said slowly: "Prince Consort Chen, you have misunderstood the monk's intention. The monk wants you to hand over the spell to the monk now. Within a year at most, the monk will take away the poisonous centipede for you." How about recovering the treasure and returning it to you!"
Chen Xiaomu secretly laughed and said, "Are you a liar?"
He immediately joined hands with the monk and said: "Thank you, Master, for your kindness, but that bowl is of little use to a person like me who has no strength to tie a chicken, so there is no need for Master to take it back for me. As for Master, if you want a spell, it’s not impossible, just buy it with money!”
"What!" The fat monk thought that he heard wrongly, and asked again. After receiving Chen Xiaomu's affirmative answer, he smiled and said: "Chen Prince Consort, are you crazy about money? You can't even spell You can sell treasures like this! Besides, how much money did the poisonous centipede pay you for taking your treasure bowl?"
Chen Xiaomu raised his eyebrows, reached out and took out half of the night pearl from his arms and said to the fat monk: "Monk, this is what Master Qiu left behind when he took away my treasure. Do you know what this is?"
The fat monk's eyes lit up and he said hesitantly: "Isn't this the Night Pearl of the South China Sea? I have long heard rumors that this thing fell into the hands of the poisonous centipede Qiu Xingbo. There has always been no evidence. This time I saw the evidence. But this time Why is there only half of it, and it’s not known whether it was the monk Qiu Xingbo gave it to you!”
Chen Xiaomu said in surprise: "Monk, haven't you always been hiding in the tree? How could you not have seen Qiu Xingbo give me the Night Pearl?"
The fat monk smiled bitterly and said: "When Qiu Xingbo left, I just arrived at this tree and was a step late. I really didn't see the process of him giving you the Night Pearl!"
Chen Xiaomu thought to himself: "No wonder I haven't felt that there is another person hiding in the tree for so long." Then he smiled at the fat monk and said: "Monk, you and I are so far away, you can tell that this is a person." A luminous pearl in the South China Sea. Besides, you also know that this luminous pearl fell into the hands of the head Qiu of the Wudu Sect. You should believe what I said, right? As for the other half of the luminous pearl, the head qiu promised me that he will give it to me in two months. , he will bring it to me when he sends someone over to get the spell. In this case, it will be a complete night pearl in two months. I heard from Master Qiu that someone once offered him half a million taels of silver and he was not willing to part with it! "
The fat monk nodded, "I believe this. This luminous pearl is worth far more than five hundred thousand taels of silver. But does Prince Consort Chen know the origin of this luminous pearl?"
"What do you mean?" Chen Xiaomu became nervous when he heard this and said warily: "Monk, don't say that this luminous pearl has anything to do with you! Even if you say that Master Qiu snatched it from you, I will never admit it. Yes! After all, I didn’t get the bead in your hand, and every wrongdoer has his own owner. If you want this bead, you should go to Master Qiu himself to get it."
The fat monk sighed and said helplessly: "Prince Consort Chen, you really got it right. This luminous pearl was originally the treasure of our temple, but it was taken away by a monk of our temple while on duty at night two years ago. The treasure pavilion in the temple was stolen, and the whereabouts of the person and the bead were unknown. Some people said that they had seen the bead in the hands of Poison Centipede Qiu Xingbo, the leader of the Five Poison Sect. The temple also sent a special person to investigate, but they had no choice. Qiu Xingbo refused to admit it, and the matter ended up being settled. At this time, the monk has a proposal, I wonder if Prince Consort Chen is willing to do it?"
Chen Xiaomu smiled and said, "Tell me about it."
