Cui Wenzi cursed in his heart and said: "The treasure box is a divine object from the sky. It cannot be controlled by ordinary people. Even if you get it, you will not be able to use it."
"This is a poor thing."
Cao Yi said calmly.
Cui Wenzi hesitated for a moment and sighed: "Forget it, I will give you the treasure box."
Then, the conversation changed.
"But you have to keep your word. If you successfully refine the elixir, you have to give me a copy."
"Of course"
Cao Yi nodded in agreement.
Soon, the purple, gold and red gourds came to the shore, and the three people came ashore.
The purple, gold and red gourd turned into a delicate little gourd and flew back to Cao Yi's hand.
"Sir, this treasure also comes from outside the sky?"
Cui Wenzi came over and asked curiously.
Cao Yi glanced at him and said nothing.
Cui Wenzi saw this and did not ask any more questions. He raised his hand and pointed forward and said, "The treasure box is inconvenient to carry. Before setting off, I buried the treasure box in the bamboo forest in front."
Cao Yi looked up and saw that it was pitch black in the distance. If you look closely, there were countless bamboos. Needless to say, the thieves had cut down the bamboos here last time they entered Daze.
"I will take out the treasure box right now."
Cui Wenzi, with a bit of unwillingness in his expression, stepped forward.
Cao Yi followed Yelv Zhigu, but kept a certain distance. Although Cui Wenzi was an expert who had never done any bad things in the original plot, no one knew what kind of person he really was, and this time he The treasure box was forcibly taken from him again, but the failure to keep it all made him murderous and set some kind of trap in the bamboo forest.
For a person who even owns such a heaven-defying thing as the Space-Time Treasure Box, who knows what might be more powerful.
The shore was not far from the bamboo forest, and it took only a moment to reach it. Cui Wenzi, who went in first, squatted down next to a bamboo as thick as an arm, dug for a while with his hands, and said in shock: "Why is the treasure box gone?"
Cao Yi, who was waiting outside the bamboo forest, showed a vigilant expression, thinking that this was Cui Wenzi's method of luring him in.
But this speculation soon became untenable.
Cui Wenzi was like crazy, digging under this bamboo for a while and digging under that bamboo for a while, shouting and screaming from time to time, which was very different from the immortal and Taoist master he used to be.
I don't know when a drizzle started to fall from the sky, and the mist also rose, covering the night with a layer of plain gauze.
Cao Yi took out an umbrella from the purple, gold and red gourd and quietly looked at Cui Wenzi, who was running around like crazy in the bamboo forest.
Suddenly, rapid and dense footsteps approached quickly from two directions. The number of people was definitely not less than five hundred.
There is an ambush!
"go in"
Cao Yi took Yelu Zhigu into the dark bamboo forest.
"The treasure box is missing"
Cui Wenzi, whose hands and body were covered in mud, said with an ugly expression when he saw Cao Yi coming in.
"Hundreds of people are coming here. If Pindao guessed correctly, the treasure box is in the hands of these people."
Cao Yi looked at the direction where the voice came from and said.
“There were hundreds of people.”
Cui Wenzi was startled and looked outside.
But his hearing was only slightly stronger than that of ordinary people, and he heard footsteps in the distance.
After a third of the incense burning, five hundred soldiers armed with spears came to the outside of the bamboo forest in a menacing manner.
"Senior brother, are you looking for the treasure box?"
In the mist and drizzle, a man of medium height, holding a box in his hand, slowly walked out from among hundreds of soldiers.
"It's my junior brother Xu Fu"
Cui Wenzi's face turned ugly.
Xu Fu is Cui Wenzi’s junior brother!
Cao Yi was slightly surprised.
"Junior brother, what do you mean?"
Cui Wenzi asked in a deep voice.
Xu Fu, who was outside the bamboo forest, was silent for a while and said, "Senior brother, I didn't want to do this to you, but you should never touch the things in the sky."
When did you touch the things inside Tianxing?
Cui Wenzi glanced at Cao Yi next to him with resentful eyes and said, "Junior brother, you are mistaken. When I went to the island, the star of the sky had already been split open."
Outside the bamboo forest, there was a burst of mocking laughter, obviously taking Cui Wenzi's words as lies.
"Senior brother, as the saying goes, those who understand current affairs are heroes. Today, the only one who can afford the elixir is Your Majesty. If you are so stubborn, I can only be rude."
Xu Fu's tone became cold.
Cui Wenzi glanced at Cao Yi beside him and said loudly: "Junior brother, if I hand over the things I took out from the star, can you return the treasure box to my brother?"
Xu Fu's cheerful voice immediately came from outside the bamboo forest: "This is natural. We are brothers in the same sect. How can I bear to kill you."
Cui Wenzi burst out laughing, as if he had heard the funniest thing in the world.
Outside the bamboo forest, Xu Fu's voice became cold again: "Junior brother, I won't hide it anymore. Senior brother, you have angered His Majesty by refusing His Majesty's summons over and over again. Before departure, Your Majesty asked Junior Brother, I will take your head back and put it away." Arrow, shoot him to death"
There was a sound of drawing a bow and setting an arrow.
"come over"
Cao Yi took Cui Wenzi and hid behind Yelu Zhigu.
With the sound of "咻" and "咻", dense bows and arrows rushed in. Some hit the bamboo, some missed the sky, and some hit Yelv Zhigu and fell to the ground.
"ah"
Cui Wenzi let out a scream in coordination.
"Stop, go in and bring out Cui Wenzi's body and treasures."
Xu Fu ordered.
A dozen soldiers in black clothes and armor pulled out their bronze swords and cautiously walked into the dark bamboo forest. From time to time, they would touch bamboo and make a slight sound.
Seeing that they were getting closer, Cao Yi took out his bell and shook it gently. The sweet and clear sound echoed in the bamboo forest.
Yelv Zhigu, holding a giant axe, took heavy steps to meet him.
"There are footsteps"
"He's not dead"
…
As soon as the soldiers' voices fell, they were knocked away.
That's right, he was knocked out! The bamboos in the bamboo forest are very dense, and the ancient ax of Yelvzhi hits the bamboos first, and then the soldiers. Of course, more importantly, Cao Yi's bell is not loud.
The soldier, who was only slightly injured, got up and quickly retreated.
Soon, another dense rain of arrows came in.
"What's going on between you and your junior brother?"
Cao Yi frowned.
"Well, this started thirty years ago. When my junior brother and I were working under a great sage from the Yin Yang family, we were hunting in the mountains. Suddenly, two stones flew from the sky. Not long after they landed on the ground, they shattered. , one is the time and space treasure box in your mouth, and the other is the scroll."
Cui Wenzi explained in a low voice.
"reel?"
Cao Yi had a little curiosity on his face.
"Junior brother never showed it to anyone or talked about it after he got it. I don't know what's inside."
Cui Wenzi shook his head.
At this time, the feather arrow stopped, and Xu Fu's voice sounded: "Senior brother, are you dead?"
"Ah, it hurts so much...Junior brother, you are so cruel."
Cui Wenzi pretended to yell a few times.
"Senior brother, I didn't expect that after several years of not seeing you, you have also developed some skills. Then, junior brother, I will come in personally to meet you."
Xu Fu said and walked in.
