Secret world.
Huozhou, Chendu.
This city, which used to be the most prosperous in the past, is now looking rather bleak.
More than 100,000 people died in Zhuo County during the First World War. Although none of them had Chendu household registration, Chendu household registration accounted for a large proportion of them.
So many people died, and I don’t know how many families were involved.
Coupled with the change of dynasties, an atmosphere of sadness permeated Chendu.
It will take some time to restore the former prosperity.
This is Chendu. If you use the power of the world to support a city, it can naturally regain its vitality quickly. If it were replaced by another city, it would simply collapse.
Now on a quiet street, a fat white man held a wooden box in his hands and slowly came to a door.
He stretched out his chubby short hand, pushed open the door, and walked directly into the mansion.
There was a person inside the courtyard with disheveled hair, his back to the door, and he didn't know what he was doing.
Fatty Bai quickly took two steps forward. When he saw the other party, he bowed down and said, "Master."
A calm voice sounded: "You have recognized the wrong person."
The scattered long black hair swayed like a poisonous snake. What turned around was a man with a thin face, a tired look, and yellow skin. The plain voice continued: "Li Chenzhou has gone out and won't be back for a while. "
Fatty Bai said seriously: "You are my master."
"I am the fifth child."
"What's wrong?"
"You don't recognize me?"
Immediately, a look of surprise appeared on Fatty Bai, and he immediately spoke: "I know, it's because I came to the secret world, and Master lost part of his memory because he crossed the world."
The fat man looked at the man with a yellow face, showing impatience, but opened the box without any panic.
He opened the red cloth and could see that it was black clothes with sun, moon, stars and dragon patterns embroidered on them. Of course, the most important thing was the diffuse light.
The treasure light is colorful and the aura is powerful.
It seems to be the center of the world, attracting all attention.
Fatty Bai said with a smile: "Does Master look familiar?"
"This is your lost treasure."
"Now that my disciple has taken it back, it can be regarded as returning to its original owner."
Fatty Bai stroked the black crown robe with one hand, feeling the silky texture in his hand, and said leisurely: "Master, you have lost a memory, so you forgot that when you first joined the Zoroastrian Cult, you had to act as a demon sect. So I deliberately made a substitute to act on your behalf."
The man with a withered face stared at the black mian robe with bright eyes, but his spiritual consciousness had spread. He carefully searched every inch of land in all directions, but he could clearly sense the existence of another spiritual consciousness, and the two sides directly collided with each other.
There was a look of fear in the eyes of the man with a withered face. The foundation-building cultivator hidden in the dark was not weak.
So the man said directly: "My disciple is right, this is the treasure that my master lost."
As he spoke, he took a step forward and reached out toward the wooden box to grab the black crown robe, but Fatty Bai took a step back, looked at the man with a yellow face warily and said, "Master usually calls me Lao Wu."
"Why don't you scream?"
"You're not lying, are you?"
The man said in a deep voice: "I am Li Chenzhou."
Fatty Bai nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes."
"This is exactly what Master said."
"You are Li Chenzhou, my master."
The man took another step forward, and the fat man took another step back. He smiled brightly and said, "Master."
"Chen Emperor killed Zhou Xian Cheng and failed to frame Dou Changsheng. Dou Changsheng saw through it on the spot and caught him."
"That Emperor Chen was a weakling and had no backbone at all. After he was caught, he revealed the whole story, exposing us as the culprits and the secret instigators."
"So I had to take action, kill Emperor Chen to silence him, and at the same time take back the treasure given by the master. It's a pity that I am not strong enough, and I can only take back one of the two Taoist tools."
"So it is better to give this Taoist artifact to the impostor first and let him take the blame for the master. Then the master will take the Taoist artifact from the impostor. No, return it to the original owner. This is how he killed Zhou Xian Cheng This matter has nothing to do with Master."
The man's eyes became deep, and finally he showed a bright smile and said: "Lao Wuqian is indeed a good disciple of his master."
"I am very satisfied as a teacher."
With a creak, the closed door was pushed open again.
A man walked in from the outside. After seeing the fat white man, his eyes showed displeasure and hatred, but he suppressed it immediately and stepped forward and said proactively: "Why is Lao Wu here?"
Fatty Bai waved his hands and said proudly: "You faker, you can call me Lao Wu."
When Fatty Bai shook his hand, the wooden box in his hand had flown out and fell directly into the hands of Li Chenzhou, who had just returned.
This was like a signal. The man with the yellow face couldn't bear it anymore, and he jumped out in an instant. Like a black light, he came directly in front of Li Chenzhou. The man had turned into a viscous liquid, a liquid as black as ink, like a giant His huge mouth had already swallowed Li Chenzhou.
As spiritual power continued to emerge, Li Chenzhou naturally chose to resist, but Li Chenzhou's actions had no effect.
Li Chenzhou just pushed open the immortal gate. Although he was also a qi-training monk, the one who chose to attack now was a foundation-building monk.
Screams continued to sound.
The black liquid squirmed, as if the mouth was chewing, biting Li Chenzhou alive.
After about ten breaths, everything returned to calm.
The black liquid began to fall to the ground, kept piling up, then slowly rose up, and finally turned into a human shape, and the man with a slowly yellow face reappeared.
There were blood stains on the corners of the opponent's mouth, but now the man didn't care at all. All his eyes were attracted by the black crown suit in his hand.
The black crown robe lost its cover, revealing its unique treasure light. This low-grade Taoist artifact showed an extraordinary appearance. The lines on it were like living things, as if starlight was constantly overflowing, hazy. Like stars surrounding it.
No matter who sees it, they will be fascinated.
This is a third-level golden elixir level treasure.
For a foundation-building monk, this is naturally self-evident.
Fatty Bai congratulated and said, "Congratulations, Master, for taking back the treasure."
The man with a yellow face didn't even look at the fat man and said coldly: "Get out."
After spitting out one word, the man with a yellow face turned and walked directly into the house. He couldn't wait to refine it and master this treasure. As for the fat man, he was completely too lazy to pay attention to it.
He didn't kill the other party because there was a foundation-building monk secretly there, otherwise the withered-faced man wouldn't mind killing the fat white man.
Fatty Bai didn't show any disappointment at this scene.
The demon cubs of the Zoroastrian Cult are definitely not good things. It is normal for them to turn against others after eating and wiping them clean.
But the demon cub of Zoroastrian Cult is cruel, but not as poisonous as his elder brother.
How could it be okay if I took something from the black-hearted brother?
I don’t know how many tricks are waiting for him.
You think you are picking up a bargain, but in fact you have already stepped into the coffin with one foot.
If it weren't for the value of being used, I'm afraid the corpse would have been exposed in the wilderness long ago.
Fatty Bai turned around and left, closing the door tightly after walking out.
After walking out of the street, he saw a woman wearing a veil, waiting for her.
Fatty Bai quickly stepped forward and saluted Ling Wanru respectfully.
Ling Wanru stared at the mansion in the distance and asked calmly: "Did Li Chenzhou take the gift?"
Fatty Bai nodded and said, "Already picked up."
Baring his white teeth, he said, "He is already our good master."
Ling Wanru said gently: "The original master's strength was low, and he just opened the immortal gate not long ago. This kind of strength can be used to hide the strength and deceive him for a while, but it is easy for accidents to happen, and others will know that he is just a showman or a paper tiger."
"It's too fake to create trouble with such strength."
"So we need a stronger master."
Fatty Bai answered the conversation and said: "This master has the strength of the fifth level of foundation building. Now he has to kill himself to successfully enter the secret world."
"I have also gained a lot in the secret world and defeated several sects. However, with the low-grade Taoist tools that my eldest brother has given me, after returning to the world of Dayan, I will not only be able to recover my strength, but I believe I can go one step further and break through to the sixth level of foundation building. , or even at the seventh level of foundation building, it is not difficult to reach the strength of the late stage of foundation building."
Ling Wanru corrected the sermon: "This Taoist weapon is not from filial piety. It was master who killed two birds with one stone and took it from our hands."
"My husband is an upright man with unparalleled benevolence and righteousness."
"Of course I can't stand Master's evil style, so Master feels threatened."
Fatty Bai nodded repeatedly and said: "Brother is a good man. He killed his relatives for the sake of the common people in the world and the people of Li."
"I also tried my best to persuade Master that there is no limit to the sea of suffering and that there is no end when we turn around. Unfortunately, Master did not listen."
Ling Wanru sighed and said, "Your elder brother is suffering."
"Such a kind-hearted character, but he has such a vicious master."
"I have been exploited, especially by using a substitute to act on my behalf, showing my weakness to the enemy, making people mistakenly think that I have not even opened the Immortal Gate, but in fact I have already established the foundation."
"Now I am making waves in the secret world, but in the end I was completely cleared of suspicion."
"It was Emperor Chen who killed Zhou County Cheng. It was the conspiracy of the double. Now he has killed the double, thrown away Li Chenzhou's name, completely separated from the past, and obtained a low-grade Taoist artifact."
"This is still a failure of the plan. If it succeeds, I can't imagine how many benefits it will gain."
"With such a master, I am really worried about your brother."
Fatty Bai slapped his chest and said with a bang: "Brother is as kind as a mountain to me."
"I'm willing to share my worries for my eldest brother."
"This time there are many people from the Zoroastrian Cult, including a foundation-building monk. I am willing to reveal the true face of the master."
"Let the world know how insidious and terrifying Master is."
