Chapter 228 Threat from Japan
Looking at this Japanese beauty, Zuo Xiu didn't realize that he didn't know this woman.
"Zuo Xiu-kun, I'm sorry! My name is Takada Mayakura, and I am the deputy ambassador of the embassy."
The Japanese girl got out of the car and bowed to Zuo Xiu enthusiastically.
Zuo Xiu was startled: "Takada Mayakura, do you know me?"
Takada Mayakura smiled and said: "You stole the tripod of Matsui War God and killed his great-granddaughter Matsui Yuko. Your name makes half of Japan feel ashamed. How can I not know you?"
Zuo Xiu frowned and said, "So, you are here to avenge Matsui Yuko?"
Takada Mayakura waved her hands and said: "No! My duty is only to take you to the embassy to see Ambassador Nishikido Ryo. He has important matters to discuss with you."
Zuo Xiu sneered: "If your ambassador wants to see me, then let him come over! I don't have time to see the little devil."
Takada Mayakura was not angry and smiled: "Our ambassador said that he knew where the tripod was excavated from, and Matsui Wushen also gave the turtle shell inscription that they excavated together to the ambassador. He wanted to work with him.
Do you make a deal?"
Turtle shell text?
Zuo Xiu thought for a moment and realized that the Shennong Cauldron, like the Chengying Sword, had lost its weapon spirit and was currently at its lowest level, with less than one ten thousandth of the strength of the divine weapon.
Maybe you can find relevant information in the turtle shell text.
So Zuo Xiu agreed on the spot, beckoning Ao Zhao to get in the car with him: "Okay, I'll go see the ambassador."
The car sped towards the embassy.
When they arrived at the place, Zuo Xiu followed Takada Mayakura into the embassy, but Ao Zhao was stopped outside by a Japanese security guard.
"Sorry, our ambassador only meets Zuo Xiujun by name. Please wait outside."
Ao Zhao looked angry: "I am Mr. Zuo's bodyguard, I must protect his safety!"
But Zuo Xiu smiled and waved his hand: "It's okay, just a few little devils can't do anything to me."
Ao Zhao said: "Japanese people are very cunning and will use any means to seize treasures. Mr. Zuo must be careful."
Zuo Xiu nodded, and under the leadership of Takada Mayakura, walked into the living room of the official residence of the Chinese Embassy in China. There was a huge picture hanging on the large wall of the living room, called the Map of Mountains and Rivers.
Under the picture, three men are sitting talking and laughing, surrounded by several beautiful women in kimonos performing tea ceremonies.
As soon as Zuo Xiu came in, everyone stopped talking. The Japanese man in the middle had a tuft of black hair in the middle of his nose. He looked at Zuo Xiu with a sword-like gaze.
"Lord Nishikido-kun, he is Zuo Xiu!"
The man on the left spoke.
Zuo Xiu looked over and was slightly startled: "Rong An, why are you here?"
Rongan stared at Zuo Xiu bitterly and said coldly: "Ambassador Ryo Nishikido and I are good friends and business partners. Of course I am here to discuss cooperation with Japan."
Zuo Xiu narrowed his eyes and said nothing.
Nishikido Ryo slammed the table and said sternly: "You are Zuo Xiujun. You killed the great-granddaughter of our great empire's general. What crime do you deserve?"
Zuo Xiu sneered: "A mere Matsui Martial God is actually the god general of your small Japanese country. Your god general is too good! Just kill him. What do you want?"
Ryo Nishikido was furious: "You are insulting our divine general. I will issue a serious warning to your Foreign Affairs Department and arrest you!"
Zuo Xiu said forcefully: "If you want to arrest me, you are not qualified! If you have something to do now, just let it go, otherwise I won't accompany you!"
Nishikido Ryo was stunned. In his impression, mainlanders were always afraid of diplomatic incidents, but he didn't expect that Zuo Xiu was so domineering.
With a cold face, he waved his hand and asked the women in kimono to retreat, and then said:
"Zuo Xiujun, let's talk about business. Matsui Martial God asked me to make a deal with you. He knows that the tripod can be used to refine elixirs. As long as you agree to help him refine a divine elixir, the gift he will give you is guaranteed.
Make you satisfied!”
Zuo Xiu was shocked. He didn't expect Matsui Ishiko to actually know about the Shennong Cauldron alchemy. Moreover, this Shenyuan Dan was an ancient elixir that almost no one knew about today.
This Shenyuan Dan can solidify the soul, quickly increase the soul power, and can help the Martial God directly break through the human immortal.
Obviously, Matsui Wushen urgently needs this elixir to seek a breakthrough opportunity.
Zuo Xiu asked: "What gift can he give me?"
Nishikido Liang said: "Matsui Martial God promised to give you 100 million US dollars for each elixir he refines, and also give you a copy of the turtle shell inscriptions unearthed from the treasure tripod. There are ancient elixir recipes on it for you to use."
You research.”
Zuo Xiu said: "Where is the tortoise shell inscription? Let me see it first?"
Ryo Nishikido took out a piece of copy paper from his arms and handed it over.
Zuo Xiu took a look and saw that what was displayed on the copy paper was really a tortoise shell, which was engraved with strange words and patterns. It was fairy inscriptions.
Could it be that Matsui Ishiko also knew Senbun?
Zuo Xiu read it carefully and found that the turtle shell text was not about elixirs at all, but about the birth and destruction of Shennong's tripod.
The Shennong Cauldron is the world-creating cauldron. Although it was made by the Shennong family who tasted hundreds of herbs, the cauldron initially absorbed a ray of maternal energy. Later, it gathered the spiritual energy of all things in the world. The maternal energy turned into the spirit of the weapon and cast the unparalleled miracle medicine.
But later, the tripod was damaged in the Battle of the Ancients and destroyed in the Battle of the Immortal Fall. It completely lost its motherly energy and fell from a divine weapon to a mortal item.
What shocked Zuo Xiu the most was that it recorded that the way to restore the spiritual power of the Shennong Cauldron was to find a spiritual tree.
There is only one kind of spiritual tree in the world that can grow in the Shennong Cauldron. Unfortunately, the tortoise shell text at the back is incomplete and unclear. It seems to have been erased. Zuo Xiu doesn't know what kind of tree that spiritual tree is?
"Zuo Xiujun, do you recognize the elixir recipe above?"
Seeing Zuo Xiu reading carefully, Nishikido Ryo asked after a while.
Zuo Xiu is now sure that Matsui Ishiko does not know the fairy script at all, otherwise he would not have said that the turtle shell script is a prescription for elixirs. All of this is Matsui Ishiko's test, hoping that he can help him recognize the contents of the turtle shell script.
.
Zuo Xiu pretended to be regretful, shook his head and said: "There is indeed a prescription for elixirs on it, but I don't recognize it either. These characters are older than oracle bone inscriptions. I'm afraid no one in the world can decipher them."
Ryo Nishikido was a little disappointed and said: "Since Zuo Xiujun can't recognize these prescriptions, why not sell the tripod to Matsui Takeshin? He promised to give you 100 billion US dollars and marry his most beautiful great-granddaughter to you. From now on
From now on, you will be the son-in-law of the Matsui Consortium, the largest in our empire."
Zuo Xiu smiled and said: "It seems that this is the theme, the previous part is just to test me. Tell that old guy that I will not give him the treasure tripod in any deal, let him give up!"
After that, Zuo Xiu turned around and left. He unexpectedly learned something about the spiritual tree from this meeting, so there was no need to stay any longer.
"Zuo Xiujun, please stay! This is Matsui Martial God's last warning to you. If you insist on becoming an enemy, your end will be tragic."
Nishikido Ryo stood up and said with cold eyes.
Zuo Xiu turned around and stared at him sharply: "Are you threatening me?"
Ryo Nishikido snorted coldly, then suddenly waved his hand and said, "Yes, I'm just threatening you! Rongan-kun, take action!"
Rongan chuckled, and a middle-aged man sitting next to him who had not spoken a word suddenly emitted a faint black aura.
He chanted a series of weird and complicated spells, waved his hands, and a black smoke instantly rushed towards Zuo Xiu.
Breathing stagnated.
Zuo Xiu felt dizzy, and the darkness was reborn before his eyes, as if he was about to fall into a dark abyss.
Evil spell!
