Asking Bai Shihua to take action is indeed the fastest way, but I feel that I am not at the end of my rope yet, so it seems too early to ask Bai Shihua to take action.
Besides, I can't possibly agree to Bai Shihua's conditions. Regarding this matter, if it were before I had a name, let alone calling me a cat or a dog, even if I were called a dung beetle, I would have agreed. Anyway, "Xiao Qi" is not much different from those names.
But not now.
I will never let go of what Ye Sanqi gave me.
In fact, I am also wondering, why did the Ninth Prince ask me to find a ghost and god to make a contract? Why did Ye Sanqi nod in agreement?
Ye Sanqi told me that even if you have a wide circle of friends, don't ask for help if you can do things yourself. First, don't cause trouble to others. If you do too many small things, the favor will become thinner and thinner. The second is the debt of gratitude, which is difficult to repay. When you beg others, they always agree; when they beg you, you have to agree even if you bite the bullet.
The most common warlocks make contracts with ghosts and gods, but they never end well.
While I was thinking about it, the chief inspector took me back to the patrol room. This time, what was waiting for me was not refreshments, but whips and irons.
The chief inspector pointed to the torture instruments on the ground: "You've never seen these things before, have you? Do you want to try them?"
I laughed and said, "Chief Inspector, we are all smart people, so stop making such jokes!"
The chief inspector sneered: "Since you know that I am a smart person, why do you still lie to me?"
"Do you really think, I don't know, that you are Xiao Qi in Li Shun's gang? Do you really think, I don't know, that Ning Beile calls you young master?"
"I ate the cake you drew for me after you came in. I just wanted to see what tricks you were going to play?"
"Actually, I kind of regret bringing those two crooks here alive. Otherwise, I could have played with you for a while longer."
I couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "I still underestimated the Chief Inspector."
The chief inspector smiled and said: "If someone can sit in a certain position, he must be outstanding, so don't underestimate anyone."
The chief inspector stared into my eyes and said, "I'll give you one last chance. Tell me, what are you doing in Abacus City?"
I stood up and said, "Before I answer the Chief Inspector's question, I want to ask you to see something first!"
After the chief inspector made a "please" gesture, I immediately tore off the corner of my clothes and threw them away. Ye Jinglong, who turned his back to everyone and ran out of the cell, immediately appeared in front of everyone.
"Shoot!" The chief patrolman pointed behind the man, and the patrolman in the room immediately opened fire. The man was immediately knocked to the ground. When the patrolman wanted to carry him over, there was only a rag left on the ground.
The chief inspector was shocked and said: "Are you a red handkerchief?"
The red handkerchief is also a part of Jianghu Shudo, which refers to the artists who perform tricks on the streets. The commonly used secret techniques are illusions and deception. However, anyone who underestimates the red handkerchiefs just because they are playing tricks will definitely suffer a big loss. The best in the red veil are known as "one person can play a thousand troops", and the consequences of irritating them are generally unbearable.
I shook my head and said, "I am not a red handkerchief. This trick is just to show the Chief Inspector that I am a warlock."
"To be honest, my master and I came to Abacus City to hunt for treasure."
The chief inspector's eyes flashed, and he regained his composure: "What treasures are there to find in Abacus City?"
I laughed and said, "The Chief Inspector is wrong. You have been dominating Abacus City for many years, have you never heard of the legend of Abacus City?"
"According to legend, the Abacus City was created by Liu Bowen, and its function was to defend Beiping at that time. Although when Liu Bowen was alive, Peiping was not the imperial capital of the Ming Dynasty. However, after Zhu Di moved the capital, there were masters who changed the Feng Shui of the Abacus City. Abacus The feng shui of the city is directly related to the luck of the Ming and Qing imperial capitals.”
The chief inspector said solemnly: "What does this mean?"
I said: "This means that when Liu Bowen built Abacus City, he left four priceless treasures in Abacus City. This is Liu Bowen's usual method."
Among the legends about Liu Bowen, there are indeed many legends about him using heavy treasures to suppress Feng Shui. Just like in Jinling, there is still a saying that Liu Bowen used Shen Wansan's cornucopia to defeat the earth dragon.
I said in a deep voice: "My master came to Abacus City this time just for Liu Bowen's four elephant treasures."
"Ning Beile is willing to help us because my master promised him one of the four treasures. His little family property is really nothing compared to the priceless treasures."
The chief inspector looked me in the eyes and said, "Why did you take down Baofeng Tower?"
I said: "My master said that someone did the same thing back then. That person built Baofeng Tower to plan for the treasures in the city. However, when he failed, something unexpected happened and he had to abandon Baofeng Tower. building."
"When my master picked up Baofeng Tower, he also used the light of his predecessors to look for treasures."
The chief inspector said solemnly: "I can't understand what you are saying? Please explain it more clearly!"
I helplessly spread my hands and said, "I also want to make it clearer, but my master only told me so much!"
"As for Nimbeile, I guess he knows less than me."
The chief inspector's eyes have narrowed: "Just tell me as much as you know!"
I replied: "My master told me: The people who built Baofeng Tower built a large array in Abacus City. This array had a total of seven array eyes, and Baofeng Tower was the first one. It has to be Only when all seven array eyes are activated can the treasure left by Liu Bowen be forced out."
"My master asked me to keep an eye on the fortune of Baofeng Tower. As long as the fortune is not lost for seven days, he will be able to open the next formation."
The chief inspector pressed forward step by step and said, "Is there anything else?"
I said, "My master also said that if he doesn't come back after seven days, he will tell me to run away and leave Abacus City and never come back."
The chief inspector sneered and said: "I think your master should have told you that if he doesn't come back after seven days, he will ask you to rescue him, right?"
The chief inspector was frightened by me.
I heard the Ninth Prince say that the highest level of deception is not to deceive people with lies, but to deceive people with the truth. Moreover, every sentence must be true. When you tell the truth, guide the other person and let him think in the direction you want, and you may be able to achieve the goal you want.
The chief inspector was fooled because of my master-disciple relationship with Ye Sanqi. Ye Sanqi didn't tell me about the six formations behind to protect me. From the chief inspector's point of view, Ye Sanqi was on guard against me. This also convinced him of the existence of the treasure.
The chief inspector said calmly: "I will stay in Baofeng Tower for these seven days to help you guard the fate of Baofeng Tower. After seven days, I want to meet your master."
The chief inspector feels that he has determined our master and apprentice, but he still doesn’t know how big of a mistake he has made.
