In the final analysis, Yun Fan's trip was entrusted by Lin Haoran, the leader of the Righteous Path, and he was searching for the Righteous Path.
And this time they designed it this way to allow Taoist Master Kumu, that is, Zheng Qidao, to come out and represent the righteous way in the battle to seize the seal.
When it comes to matters related to this aspect, it is up to Qinxian, the leader's wife, to come forward to negotiate. Yunfan naturally knows this, so he does not overstep his authority.
Qin Xian gave him a look of gratitude and nodded slightly. She was also an extremely smart person. She understood what Yun Fan meant. Then she turned her eyes to look at the dead wood Taoist priest here and stopped her smile. , his face straightened, and he said: "First, return the jade treasure from the sea to its original owner; second, represent the righteous way to participate in the battle to seize the seal!"
"Hmm...??!!" Kumu had a bitter look on his face and was a little incoherent. He didn't know how to respond for a moment.
Do you agree? ! He had spent a lot of effort to get the Canghai Nuanyu. He didn't even cover it up, so he wanted to return it. Not to mention, it had been bothering him for many years, and the secret hidden in it has not yet been solved. How could he be willing to give it back like this? !
Don't agree? ! He now has a handle in Yunfan's hand. Although Yunfan swore that what he won was just some non-toxic medicinal powder, it was the first time that the two parties met, so there was no guarantee that Yunfan would not do anything with the medicinal powder.
How dare he gamble when he cherishes his life so much!
The situation is stronger than the people, and a hero will not suffer the immediate disadvantages. Kumu thought about it secretly, and he had no choice but to agree to the current plan.
Furthermore, now that the matter has come to this point, even if Kumu doesn’t want to agree, he can’t help it.
Everyone couldn't help but secretly rejoiced when they saw that this dead tree that refused to eat oil or salt, and could not eat anything soft and hard, finally bowed its head. In this way, not only did they achieve their original goal, but they also recovered the lost Canghai Nuanyu, which not only helped Fuwei The Escort Bureau has solved an urgent need, and at the same time, it has brought the reputation of Qiushui Villa to a higher level in the world. It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone and it is a worthwhile trip! Naturally, I was very excited.
Seeing that he finally relented, Yun Fan felt sincerely happy. This proves that all their efforts during this period have not been in vain.
He didn't waste any words, and gave him a bottle of antidote as he said before, which relieved him from the painful pain of life being worse than death.
Immediately, Deadwood took everyone to a stone room. This stone room was located underground in the back hall of the Taoist temple. It was a secret room. It was very secret. It was originally used for his daily practice and collection of important things.
The Canghai Nuanyu that Kumu stole from Fuwei Escort is hidden here.
Under the eyes of everyone, Ku Mu walked to the side of the stone room and took out a brocade box from the secret compartment, which was the box containing Canghai Nuan Jade.
Dead wood took out Canghai Nuanyu and held it in his hand, and they were able to see the true appearance of Canghai Nuanyu in Lushan. Before, they had only heard the sound but not the real thing. Now they could see it with their own eyes, which was really eye-opening.
From the moment the dead tree took out the Canghai Nuan Jade, everyone's eyes were focused on this piece of jade. There seemed to be a gleam of light in their eyes, staring at this beautiful jade without blinking.
This is a palm-sized jade pendant with excellent texture. It is green in color, warm and translucent. It is engraved with complex patterns, which is brilliant and flawless. It is a top-grade jade. Even the words "priceless" are not enough to describe it. It can be said to be a priceless treasure.
Suddenly seeing this kind of treasure, everyone couldn't help but have a terrible desire to take it as their own. This idea seemed to come out of thin air, and it was extremely strong and clear, as if this piece of beautiful jade was born with an indescribable The magic power wants to control them tightly.
But they are not ordinary people after all. After all, they suddenly realized that their reason was not right. They woke up quickly, suppressed the greed in their hearts, and their eyes shifted a little. It suddenly dawned in their hearts. No wonder even a pure cultivator like Ku Mu can do this. Doing such a robbery on the road.
Just when everyone was imagining things and thinking a lot, they heard the deep and deep voice of the dead wood slowly and slowly said: "I am a pure cultivator from outside the country, and I don't care about gold, silver, and other things outside my body. Why should I rob this piece of warm jade?" "The dead tree seemed to be talking to everyone, but also seemed to be talking to himself, and said slowly: "Because there is a big secret hidden in it!"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked.
They were immediately interested!
Everyone's eyes were focused on the dead tree, their bodies paused, and everyone pricked up their ears.
With a solemn expression, without saying a word, he quietly waited for the dead wood to fall. They wanted to see how shocking the so-called "secrets" revealed by this obscure Taoist priest were!
"What secret?!" Seeing the solemn and solemn expression on the dead tree, Yun Fan suddenly realized that the inside story might not be simple! I couldn't help but be curious about the "secret" in Kumu's mouth. I saw him standing in silence, his eyes fixed on Kumu.
You could hear a needle drop in the stone room and it became extremely quiet. Everyone is quietly waiting for the dead wood to follow.
Kumu paused and looked at the people on the side. His thin and weathered face was now full of smiles, as if he was very satisfied that his careless words could have such a huge shock and impact on them.
He lowered his head slightly and looked at the green-green Canghai Nuan Jade in his hand. Instead of handing it to Yun Fan or Qin Xian, he closed his big hands and held the Canghai Nuan Jade in his hand.
The light in his eyes was vaguely visible, and he spoke slowly: "Legend has it that the First Emperor of Qin ordered the great alchemist Xu Fu to lead five hundred boys and girls to Penglai Island to find the elixir of immortality. However, there are various speculations about this matter, There is a theory that he had actually found it, but instead of showing it to Qin Shihuang, he hid the elixir in a very secret place."
"Listen to what you said, is this place actually related to Canghai Nuanyu?!" After listening to Ku Mu's words, Qin Xian was thoughtful and asked tentatively.
"Clever!" Kumu looked sideways at Qinxian and couldn't help but admire: "The secret of this is hidden in this piece of warm jade."
Mentioning the warm jade in the sea, a rare expression of excitement appeared on Kumu's calm face.
Lin Yuqing's beautiful eyes turned around, looking at the Canghai Nuanyu that was still held by the dead tree in her hand, and suddenly said: "No wonder this jade is so valuable, it turns out there is such a big secret behind it!"
Kumu's eyes still fell on the warm jade in his hand, and he took a few steps slowly: "I have been asking for a long time, and finally learned not long ago that this jade will be presented to the imperial court in the near future, so, I will take this opportunity to use this piece of jade, and after I understand its secrets, I will return it to its original owner!"
"..." Yun Fan put his hand on his forehead and was speechless for a while.
It was obvious that he had robbed it without asking, but when he arrived, he said it was "borrowed", and he said it in such an understatement and high-sounding way.
Yunfan has never seen such a shameless person!
How can people be so shameless? But this also corresponds to the old saying: If a person has no shame, he is invincible!
He simply refreshed Yunfan's understanding of Taoists.
At this time, Shen Qianxing, who had been silent next to him, suddenly spoke and said, "Excuse me for asking, has Chang Shen understood the secret?"
"It's just that I didn't understand it thoroughly. So when I heard Mrs. Lin say that the jade was really on her body, I believed it and thought about getting the jade from her. Who knew that all this was actually planned by Yun Yuan? A trap set by him.”
At the end of the sentence, the scenes where Yun Fan teased him suddenly came to mind again, and Kumu turned his head away and snorted heavily. It seemed that he still cared about what happened before.
It's my fault! Misdeeds committed by God can be forgiven, but misdeeds committed by oneself cannot be saved!
Yun Fan couldn't help but have such a sentence pop up in his mind.
"Alas!" After hearing this, Qiu Shi shook his head repeatedly, placed his hands on the large string of Buddhist beads around his neck involuntarily, and then sighed softly: "I cannot wish for death, but you cannot wish for immortality. You can't control it. Myself, how ironic!”
Yun Fan nodded lightly and said sincerely: "The most important thing in life is whether it is meaningful, not the length. There is no reason why you can't understand such a simple truth, Taoist Priest!"
Kumu did not comment, but continued: "The poor master Youyazi also spent his whole life studying the art of immortality, and he never tired of it. Even before he disappeared ten years ago, he did not give up. Master, he Even old people are like this, how can Pindao, a disciple, give up so easily!"
"Pindao really wants to fulfill my master's lifelong wish. If it is really possible to achieve this goal, I will pay any price! It's a pity... I don't have enough qualifications and understanding!"
"The secret is right in front of you. It's really hard to find out."
I'm not willing to die. "The dead wood priest gritted his teeth and was still unwilling to give in.
As he spoke, his face was filled with sorrow and helplessness. He had no choice but to say that he was not capable enough! Who can you blame?
