Shao Xi looked at the package in Hua Qianhui's hand and was stunned for a moment. Could it be that she had the idea of recognizing him as her brother before he came, so she prepared the gifts in advance?
But he has never met her. How could she know what kind of person he is without meeting her?
When Shao Xi was wondering, Hua Qianhui seemed to see the doubts in his heart.
So he said: "You told my sister before that you were proficient in music. It is not difficult to learn to play the flute. My sister actually has two flutes on weekdays. In addition to the one I played just now, there is also a Hanyu here. The flute is something I usually can’t bear to use.
"In addition, there is also a secret book in the package that uses the sound of the flute to control the energy. With your intelligence, it should not be difficult to understand. Once you learn this skill, you can use the sound of the flute to control the energy like me, and you can attack and defend.
"Although this kung fu is not considered superior, it can be used as a skill to help one's body. I will give these two things to you today. Consider it a meeting gift from my sister!"
Shao Xi was overjoyed after hearing this. He had just seen Hua Qianhui's ability to control the air with the sound of the flute. Although Hua Qianhui said that it was not considered superior Kung Fu, Shao Xi knew that this kind of Kung Fu was not. You can learn it anywhere.
Using the flute to control qi can form a field of vitality around yourself that is both offensive and defensive. You can attack when you advance, and you can defend when you retreat. It is a very practical skill.
And the most important thing is that playing the flute is so handsome. It is definitely the best choice for showing off. How could Shao Xi not like it?
Shao Xi reached out to take the package and opened it, only to see a rectangular rosewood box inside the package.
After opening the box, I saw a long white jade flute lying quietly inside. The flute had a warm luster and was white and flawless. The moment the box was opened, a cold air hit me. It was as cold as ice when I touched it with my hands. , translucent and clearing the skin.
Hua Qianhui added at the side: "This flute is a piece of cold jade that I asked for from Tianqiong Mountain. It was made by skilled craftsmen. It feels like ice in your hand. The sound of the flute is quiet and low, like a cold stream flowing. Cold wind blows through the forest.
"Use the method of using the flute to control the air again. The vitality controlled by the sound of the flute will be cold and scattered, and the frost and snow will drift. Ordinary people can't get close at all. You must collect and study it carefully, and don't let down my sister's wishes."
Shao Xi looked surprised after hearing this. He didn't expect that this flute was related to Tianqiong Mountain. It seemed that he was quite destined to Tianqiong Mountain.
Don’t know when you’ll have the chance to go there in person?
Shao Xi really wanted to see that place with outstanding people and see the martial arts of Patriarch Tianqiong.
There is also a thin booklet in the package, which is probably the secret book of kung fu techniques using the flute to control qi.
Shao Xi just glanced at it and did not read it in front of Hua Qianhui.
It would be rude to look at the kind gifts from others too carefully. Shao Xi didn't want to leave any bad impression on Hua Qianhui.
So he rewrapped the package and tied it around his waist. He cupped his hands in front of Hua Qianhui and thanked her: "Sister gave me such a beloved thing. I really don't know what to use in return. I went out in a hurry today and didn't bring anything decent." As a gift, why not give my sister two hidden weapons?"
As he spoke, Shao Xi reached out and took out the remaining Tiannu loose flowers from the cowhide satchel that King of Hell Tie He used, and handed it to Hua Qianhui.
He continued: "These two are hidden weapons made by the Tang Sect. One is the King of Hell's Tie, and the other is the Heavenly Lady's Scattered Flowers. They are left for my sister for emergency use. It is a small kindness from my brother. I hope my sister doesn't want them. dislike."
When Hua Qianhui heard that these two hidden weapons came from the Tang Sect, she couldn't help showing a look of surprise on her face. She knew that the hidden weapons of the Tang Sect would not be given away easily, but now they appeared in Shao Xi's hands.
It can be seen that Shao Xi must have some kind of connection with the Tang Sect of Xishu. A person who is even willing to give his own hidden weapon as a gift to the Tang Sect is definitely not an ordinary person.
Unexpectedly, the Tang Sect actually gave the hidden weapon to Shao Xi. It seemed that Shao Xi had some friends in the martial arts world, which made Hua Qianhui feel extremely happy.
Shao Xi is not only highly skilled in martial arts, but also has a wide network of friends, which is really commendable.
Hua Qianhui reached out to take the Hades' Tie and Tiannv's scattered flowers from Shao Xi. Her heart was full of excitement. Although Shao Xi said that these were just two small gifts, she knew the value of these hidden weapons of the Tang Sect. location.
Hua Qianhui was very happy that Shao Xi could give him something like this as a meeting gift.
After putting the things away, Hua Qianhui said to Shao Xi with a solemn expression: "Brother, what you are going to see next is 'Judge Impermanence' Shen Bu Gai, although the four of us are his subordinates and obey his orders. , but little is known about this person.
"All I know is that this person is often moody and uncertain. No one knows what he is thinking or doing at the next moment. When you see him, remember to be extremely alert and cautious.
"Try not to anger him as much as possible. After all, his martial arts is superior to yours. If the two of you start fighting, I'm afraid you will suffer a loss. This is the only thing my sister can remind you. You will have to rely on yourself from now on. .”
Shao Xi nodded gratefully to Hua Qianhui. He knew in his heart that Hua Qianhui was worried about his safety, fearing that he would suffer a loss at the hands of Shen Bugai.
In fact, Shao Xi didn't know what he was going to do with the person he was about to face. If we can negotiate with each other through words, it would be best if both parties do not take action.
But if he also wants to try his martial arts, both sides will inevitably have to fight. This time Shao Xi does not seek to win, but to protect himself.
Shao Xi bowed his hands to Hua Qianhui and said sincerely: "Thank you for your concern, sister. I will be more careful, brother. Sister, you should also take good care of yourself. If there is an opportunity in the future, you and I will be together again." gather.
"If my sister encounters difficulties one day, you might as well go to the Frost and Snow Tower in Daliang City to find me. Although my brother may not be there all the time, as long as he knows that my sister has needs, he will go through fire and water for her without hesitation."
Hua Qianhui nodded and said nothing more. She just turned her body to one side and raised her arm, signaling Shao Xi to pass in front of her and go to the tall buildings built of bluestone in the distance.
Shao Xi bowed his hands and saluted again, turned around and headed towards the bluestone hall.
Hua Qianhui looked at Shao Xi's back and sighed softly.
He hoped that Shao Xi's trip would go well and that he would leave the Ghost Emperor's Mansion safely. At the same time, he also sighed that it was only a short period of time since he and Shao Xi met and separated. He didn't know when and where they would meet again next time.
If you are unlucky, you may never have the chance to meet again in this life.
However, Hua Qianhui also felt a warmth flowing through her heart. Although she only recognized a younger brother, she finally had a family member again, and she had the long-lost concern in her heart.
This made Hua Qianhui feel that she had regained the family ties of the past, and once again found something worth protecting with her life.
Shao Xi still walked forward along the firelight. The tall bluestone building seemed not far away, but Shao Xi actually walked for a long time.
When Shao Xi finally walked to a tall bluestone hall, he saw that the house was not exquisitely built, but it looked impressive.
The main hall is built on a tall base, which makes the entire main hall look taller and more majestic, as if overlooking the ghosts in the underworld.
On the pedestal in front of the main entrance of the hall is a long staircase that extends to Shao Xi's feet, and on both sides of the steps are still two rows of braziers on wooden frames.
Shao Xi walked up the steps without much hesitation and headed towards the main entrance of the hall.
When he walked up the last step, Shao Xi raised his head and looked towards the door. He saw a huge black plaque hanging on the door, which read "The Hall of King Yama".
After seeing the name of this hall, Shao Xi couldn't help but look around and saw several other halls not far from this hall.
Shao Xi knew that what he was boarding at this time was the Yama Palace among the ten palaces of Yama.
The underworld of the underworld is divided into the Five Ghost Emperor's Palace and the Ten Palaces of Hell. The five ghost emperor's palaces are the Eastern Ghost Emperor's Palace, the Southern Ghost Emperor's Palace, the Central Ghost Emperor's Palace, the Western Ghost Emperor's Palace and the Northern Ghost Emperor's Palace.
The ten palaces of Yama are respectively the Qinguang Palace, the Chujiang Palace, the Song Emperor Palace, the Wuguan Palace, the Yama Palace, the Biancheng Palace, the Taishan Palace, the City Palace, the Pingping Palace and the Wheel-turning Palace. temple.
Among the ten palaces of the Yama Palace, the Yama Palace is the central main palace, so when Shao Xi walked over, the first thing he saw was the Yama Palace, and the "Impermanent Judge" was here.
Although there were many braziers placed around the hall, which illuminated the inside and outside of the hall, Shao Xi could still feel the eerie atmosphere while standing in front of the hall.
Before Shao Xi entered the hall, he heard a loud and eerie voice coming from the hall.
"If you are in need, please come into the temple!"
Shao Xi heard the sound and looked into the hall. From a distance, he saw something sitting on a huge chair on a tall stone platform in the center of the hall, which could not be said to be a human or a ghost.
It was too far away to see clearly.
Anyway, they had already asked me to come in, so there was no need to be polite as I was in front of the door, so I stepped over the tall threshold in front of the door and entered the hall, walking straight towards the person sitting on the chair.
Shao Xi stopped consciously when he was more than ten feet away from the chair.
People who sit high and high like this regard themselves as authoritative beings. If they get too close, they will be regarded as disrespectful by the other party.
After Shao Xi stopped, he raised his head and looked at the person on the chair. He saw that the person was wearing a large robe and an exaggerated headdress on his head.
And on his face was a ferocious golden ghost mask, with only his eyes exposed.
Such an image sits in this gloomy hall, with a hint of weirdness in its majesty, which makes people feel very uncomfortable.
Shao Xi felt as if he was standing at the feet of that person at this moment. Coupled with the tall and wide space in the hall, he felt extremely insignificant.
It seems that when this hall was first built, it was intended to give visitors a psychological sense of intimidation.
Shao Xi slightly adjusted to the surrounding environment and the feeling of discomfort in his heart, then he cupped his fists and saluted the person sitting on the chair.
"My Excellency, Shao Xi, Xi of Chenxi. This time I came to the Ghost Emperor's Mansion to pay a visit to "Judge Impermanence" because I have a business to negotiate with your mansion. Please forgive me for any lack of etiquette!"
The masked person sitting on the chair did not answer Shao Xi's words, but said directly: "Tell me your price, and then tell me what you want. If there is no reciprocity between the two, please hurry up. Leave.”
