Lu Ding nodded, "Master said that there are monsters stealing swords tonight, so they are probably lurking around here now. Later, if master has to concentrate on controlling the formation and is unable to be distracted, those monsters may also be waiting for an opportunity to sneak attack. Just what is needed. Someone is standing by to protect you.
"Xijun staying with you is more useful than following me."
What Lu Jing said was so reasonable that no one could find anything wrong with it.
Xia Huai had already drawn his sword at this time and stood silently beside Zhi Hai.
Zhihai glanced at the bright long sword in the girl's hand and said nothing more, "In that case, I'll bother Donor Qi to go through this.
"As far as the poor monk knows, the magic knife was placed in an iron box in the warehouse, but I don't know which one it is in. There are seven iron boxes in the warehouse. I'm afraid it will take the donor Qi to put it all in. Find only one.
"In addition, there is another troublesome thing, that is, those iron boxes are difficult to open. They are all made of pig iron, and each weighs more than a thousand kilograms. Two keys are needed to open the boxes, one of which is in the hands of Taiping Bank. As for the other one, it is in the hands of the person who saved it."
"Master, do you have any suggestions?" Lu Jing asked.
"I suggest you first use the inner vision technique to take a peek inside the iron box to find the magic knife, and then use the object control technique to transport it out together with the box. How about it? Can Donor Qi do it?"
Lu Jingcai would not give Zhihai an excuse to send Xia Huai away.
Lu Jing left Xia Huai outside, firstly because he didn't want the girl to take risks with him, and most importantly, he wanted her to keep an eye on Zhihai.
Once Zhi Hai made any small move, he had to decide whether the flames would burn Lu Jing first or whether Xia Huai's long sword would pierce him first.
So Lu Jing just said, "I understand."
"If there are no other questions, the poor monk is here to clear the way for Donor Qi. Remember, you only have half a cup of tea. After half a cup of tea, you must return immediately to the original route, whether you find it or not." Zhihai said as he walked out of the way. A small wooden fish was found in his arms.
It is covered with dense "red scriptures". There is no doubt that this is the formation disk of Zhihai's sky fire formation.
Zhihai recited another Buddhist chant, and then struck a verse on the wooden fish with a mallet.
The fire all over the sky suddenly stopped, and the next moment it split into two, creating a road.
All the residents present were stunned when they saw this scene, and some even knelt on the ground and knelt down, thinking that the god of fire had appeared.
Lu Jing on the other side also covered his mouth and nose with wet clothes.
"Now, go!" Zhihai shouted.
Before he could finish his words, Lu Jing had already rushed out, but after just two ups and downs, he fell into the sea of fire.
Zhihai looked seriously and stared at Lu Jing's back. Seeing that he was almost at the end of the road, he stretched out his hand again and knocked the wooden fish three times.
Lu Jing saw that the wall of fire in front of him magically split into two halves again, while at the same time the flames behind him gathered together again. Without any time to think, Lu Jing jumped onto a new path.
It has to be said that Zhi Hai's strategy of fighting fire with fire is indeed unique. With the help of the Sky Fire Formation, Lu Jing quickly arrived in front of Taiping Bank's warehouse.
At this time, the warehouse door was locked.
Lu Jing kicked it, and the door let out a scream and trembled a few times, but it still stood firm and did not fall.
Lu Jing's kick was filled with internal energy, and there was a lot of it, at least 80%. However, Taiping Bank obviously took the attacks of martial arts masters into account when designing the warehouse.
This door is also made of iron and is an astonishing two inches thick.
It was enough to withstand the siege of many people, but Lu Jing only paused for a moment, and then continued to kick.
Because these two doors may be unbreakable, it does not mean that the wall containing the doors is equally strong.
No matter how frantic Taiping Bank is, it is impossible to build a house that is completely made of iron. In this case, there will naturally be flaws in the connection between the wall and the door, not to mention that it has been roasted by fire for so long.
Lu Jing kicked the door down after a while.
Then he was stunned, because the first thing he saw was a big hole, right where the iron box was before, and the iron box that was originally located above the big hole naturally disappeared.
Lu Jing's heart sank at first, but he quickly regained his composure.
He knew that the person who stole the iron box must not have gone far, because not long ago, the child-seeking beetle was still in the fire place, and apparently the iron box was still in the Taiping Bank at that time.
So the theft of the black knife is what happened just now.
Lu Jing possessed himself and put his ear to the ground, and sure enough he heard the noise coming from below.
The movement was very noisy, as if many people were moving together. Lu Jing quickly thought of the group of rats he had seen in the copper basin before.
Sure enough, this fire is also related to the guy who controls the rats.
Lu Jing was about to jump into the hole, but after thinking about it, he stopped again. The other party probably wouldn't be able to open the iron box for a while, which meant that the black knife was still safe for the time being.
There is also a child beetle in the box, which can be located by the mother beetle at any time.
So Lu Jing turned around and walked towards another iron box. He didn't know how to use internal vision or control objects, so he used the simplest method to find a chain and tied up the box, and then Drag it outward.
When Lu Jing walked to the door of the warehouse, it was less than half a cup of tea, so he waited for a while.
I don't know if it was because the Fire Lin Armor had reached the fifth level, but Lu Jing didn't feel much threat from the heat wave that was unbearable to others.
He even stood in front of a burning wall for a while. In comparison, the smoke produced by the burning was more deadly.
But with Lu Jing's internal strength cultivation, it wouldn't be a big deal if he didn't breathe for a while.
Then Lu Jing's eyes moved around the room again, and finally landed on a lampstand.
…………
On the street, Zhihai’s wooden fish became more and more urgent.
He had been trying hard to control the fire and prevent it from spreading towards the warehouse, giving Lu Jing enough time to find the black knife. Because the monk's clothes on his back were wet, he held on for a while.
Calculating that time was almost up, Zhi Hai started to create an escape route for Lu Jing.
He spread the fire to both sides as much as possible, leaving a blank space in the middle. However, perhaps because his secret power was exhausted a bit, the blank space created this time was only half as wide as before, but it was still enough for one person to pass.
After a while, Zhihai saw Lu Jing's figure reappearing, dragging a large iron box behind him.
"Found it!" Zhi Hai's face showed a hint of joy and said to Lu Jing, "Quick, throw the things out first."
