The next day, Shao Xi got up early, but he didn't plan to go to Xinjing Tea House too early, because going too early would make him appear a little impatient. This kind of thing must be done steadily.
The reason why he got up early was to keep a clear mind and prepare everything that should be prepared. After all, it was the first time he came into contact with the Ghost Emperor's Mansion. Although Shao Xi was not afraid, he always had to be cautious in everything.
Shao Xi first checked the equipment on his body. Unexpectedly, he had only been in the Central Plains for a year and now he was already a treasure.
In addition to the Liuyun Sword at the waist, the first piece of gold silk armor "Soft Gold Wrap" worn on the body is needless to say the protective power.
The second item is the stainless steel folding fan that Tang Qing asked Tang Ming to give him. It can be used as both a weapon and a defense. Shao Xi never leaves his body.
The black whale swimming boots on my feet were given by Sha Nu. Needless to say, the benefits of these boots are that I can wear them for a lifetime.
The soft sword jade belt presented by Lu Dianqing on Lingyu Mountain, the silver wire gauntlets presented by Liu Yanyi and the black bronze breast mirror presented by Du Wenshu are all high-quality treasures, especially the silver wire gauntlets and black bronze breast mirror, which are especially valuable at critical moments. For life-saving purposes.
The silver gauntlet on the left hand is equipped with a sleeve arrow, the front breastplate is equipped with innuendos, and the rear breastplate is equipped with a back crossbow.
The leather waist bag I found temporarily and hung on my waist contained a Hades Tie and two Heavenly Lady flowers, ready for use at any time.
This treasure is enough for Shao Xi to deal with most unexpected situations. If he hadn't encountered a top expert, it would have taken a lot of effort to take Shao Xi's life.
Fortunately, these things on his body are very light and easy to carry, especially the ones on the left and right. If they were too heavy, Shao Xi would have left them at home and would rather not bring them.
After checking what he wanted to carry, Shao Xi went to the backyard woodshed to say hello to Lao Wu.
This time I went to discuss business with the Ghost Emperor's Mansion. It was not an easy thing to say. No one else would tell me, but I must let Old Wu know about it.
If something happens to him, at least the whole family will have Old Wu to take care of him.
But when Lao Wu heard that Shao Xi was going to visit the Ghost Emperor's Mansion for a while, he cursed: "You little bastard, you have grown up now, haven't you? You have never mentioned such an important thing to me. Are you coming to tell me now that things have come to an end?
"Do you know who are the people in the Ghost Emperor's Mansion? Are you tired of living when you go there rashly? Everyone in the Ghost Emperor's Mansion is a murderous demon. Don't think that you are here now. Once you reach the 'Qi Transformation Realm', you can have no worries.
"The 'Impermanent Judge' Shen Bu Gai has been in the 'Qi Transformation Realm' for many years, and his martial arts skills must be superior to yours. You just go to test others' details. Do you think you can get an advantage if you are discovered by others?
"You made your own decision without consulting me. Do you think that this old guy like me is now a burden and of no use to you? Your ideas are getting better and better now, and you can make your own decisions in everything. Yes or no?"
Shao Xi never expected that Old Wu would have such a big reaction to this matter. Although it was indeed risky to go to explore the details of the Ghost Emperor's Mansion, he never expected that Old Wu would react so violently.
Shao Xi quickly apologized with a playful smile: "No, no, no, no! Don't be so angry! I know it's my fault for not discussing this matter with you in advance, but if I had told you in advance, would you still agree? ?
"This is a rare opportunity to find out the details of the other party. Although it is somewhat risky, I know it well. I have also made complete preparations for this matter. I know that you old guy cares about me, but you also Don't worry too much.
"I went to meet them under the guise of negotiating business with the Ghost Emperor's Mansion, and I also have enough chips in my hand to negotiate terms with them, so they won't do anything to me easily.
"Besides, you and I haven't learned anything else since we were little. Who in the world can be better at escaping than me? If you can't defeat me, won't you run away? Stop worrying about it and help me at home." Look, there are still many things to discuss with you later!"
Although Old Wu still had a glaring expression, his tone of voice softened.
“You brat, don’t blame me for not reminding you, the business of the Ghost Emperor’s Mansion is not something anyone can negotiate!
"There are rumors in the world that even if you have the life-killing card in your hand, if you want to meet with the 'Impermanent Judge' Shen Bugai to discuss business, you have to go through his Wangchuan River, Naihe Bridge, Sansheng Stone and Bianhua Flower.
"I know that it shouldn't be too difficult to get through these four levels with your current skills, but when facing Shen Bugai, if you reveal a flaw in even half of your words, he will definitely take action against you. Don't forget his His nickname is Judge Impermanence.
"You may not be able to guess what these evil ghosts from the underworld are thinking in their heads. Although they usually charge money to kill people, there are times when they don't charge money, and that's when they want to kill people themselves.
"I also know that you have always been cautious, and you won't try it if you are not sure, but I still want to advise you to take care of yourself. If the situation is not right, you can escape if you can, and don't bite the bullet and pretend to be a big clove of garlic."
Shao Xi knew that Lao Wu was not an alarmist. Just from the name Ghost Emperor's Palace, he knew who was in this organization!
A group of guys who insist on being ghosts instead of doing good things, aren't they the evil ghosts in the world?
Old Wu told himself this, which shows that the Ghost Emperor's Mansion has become notorious in the world of martial arts over the years.
Generally speaking, if a martial arts sect has a master of the "Qi Transformation Realm", it will have a very high status in the martial arts world. If there is an ancestor of the eighth grade, it will be the top sect in the martial arts world.
As for the Tianqiong Patriarch of Tianqiong Mountain, he doesn't even bother to be included in the martial arts sect. Everyone who reaches the ninth rank is an outsider and is too lazy to compete for those worldly rankings.
Therefore, it is conceivable that a killer organization like the Ghost Emperor's Palace has a "Qi Transformation Realm" master like Shen Bugai in charge. The status of the Ghost Emperor's Palace in the martial arts world cannot be underestimated.
Moreover, Ghost Emperor's Mansion has become famous for a long time. I wonder how far Shen Bugai's martial arts has advanced now?
In short, Lao Wu was right. He still had to be extremely careful when facing Shen Bu Gai. After all, in the "Qi Transformation Realm", he could only be regarded as a rookie at best. Facing the real "Qi Transformation Realm" "The master himself has no chance of winning.
"Don't worry! Old Wu, I have remembered your instructions. I will be extra careful this time. Even if things don't work out, I promise you that I will come back safely. Don't worry too much about me. I’ll improvise.”
Old Wu also knew that if Shao Xi was not allowed to go to what he decided, he would be extremely uncomfortable. Since he couldn't stop him, he could only give him more reminders to be more careful.
Seeing that Shao Xi had already said this, he was too lazy to care about him anymore. He waved his hand and said, "It's okay as long as you know. I can't stop you. Anyway, don't be too playful. Not everything can be taken advantage of." , don’t suffer a loss this time even if you pick it up.”
Shao Xi knew that Lao Wu was worried about him from the bottom of his heart, so he nodded very seriously and said, "I will take note of your words. I will definitely go home before dark."
Old Wu nodded without saying anything more, turned around and entered the woodshed.
It would be a lie to say that he wasn't worried, but he didn't want to put too much pressure on Shao Xilin before he set off. He just hoped that Shao Xi wouldn't be too careless during this trip.
It was his decision to take Shao Xi back to the Central Plains to avenge the Feng family, and he didn't want to regret it because of this decision.
Although a lot of things have happened in the past year since he returned to the Central Plains, overall Shao Xi has been too smooth. Although he has experienced life and death situations like Wulong Mountain, most of the time Shao Xi relies on his own strength. Cleverness resolves many crises.
It seems that he can solve things smoothly every time, which will inevitably give him the illusion that there is nothing he can't solve. This illusion often kills people.
Once he really encounters something that he cannot solve, it may make him at a loss and unable to deal with it. If that is the case, he will have no choice but to wait and die.
So Lao Wu's repeated reminders were to tell him that not everything in the world was something he could handle with ease, and not everyone in the world was something he could handle.
When facing unknown people and things, you should have an attitude of awe and caution. Only in this way can you live longer.
Having been with Lao Wu for so many years, Shao Xi knew very well that Lao Wu was rarely so serious. This showed that Lao Wu was very afraid of the Ghost Emperor's Palace in his heart, and it also proved that the Ghost Emperor's Palace was not as simple as he imagined.
Seeing Lao Wu returning to the woodshed, Shao Xi felt inexplicably moved in his heart.
Even though he is now in a high position and rich in wealth, in the eyes of Old Wu, he is still the naughty child who makes him worry.
Although Lao Wu was cursing, he knew that Lao Wu was more worried about his own safety than anyone else, so he couldn't let anything happen to him no matter what. He had to return home before dark no matter what.
Not for anything else, just to make the person who is worried about him feel at ease.
Shao Xi looked up at the sun and estimated that it was almost time, so he asked Liu Fu to bring the horses and set off to Xinjing Tea House alone.
When Shao Xi rode away, he didn't know that Old Wu was standing on the roof watching him leave from a distance, with a look of worry on his face.
After watching Shao Xi disappear, Old Wu let out a long sigh, sat down on the ridge of the room and took a sip of wine.
Over the past year, he and Shao Xi had experienced many crises together, and the only one that made Old Wu so worried was the one at Wulong Mountain.
Now Lao Wu has an ominous premonition in his heart. He is afraid that Shao Xi will face a life-and-death disaster like Wulong Mountain again. After all, he is now facing another opponent whose martial arts level is much higher than his.
The last time something happened in Wulong Mountain was because he had a hot head and almost lost his life in a head-on confrontation with Liu Duo, whose martial arts level was higher than his own.
Today is different from the past. When he faced Liu Duo at Wulong Mountain, he was only at the sixth level, but now the Shen Bugai he has to face is a master of the "Qi Transformation Realm".
As for whether Shen Bugai is now in the seventh or eighth grade, Old Wu is not sure. After all, this person is too mysterious. Few people really know his details. They only know that he has reached the "Qi Transformation Realm" many years ago. .
After so many years, no one would find it strange that he has reached the eighth level, and this person is exactly the person Shao Xi is facing today.
I hope this kid can have a longer memory now and become smarter when facing Shen Bu Gai.
