Chapter 954 Scales in the Statue
The sound of dongdong comes from the maid Xiaoshuang.
At this time, a girl named Xiaoshuang was standing at the foot of the statue and tapped the position of the statue's heel with her hands.
As Wang Zhao and others surrounded him curiously, people discovered that there was a section at the heel of the statue. The section was very hidden and difficult to detect, and the section was very new, and I don’t know who cut it out.
"The statue is broken, the Taoist priests in the Taoist temple are too careless. This is the statue of the Taoist lord. Look at the roots of the shoes are broken."
Feicai complained to the Taoist priest, shaking his head and speaking out for the Taoist lord, as if he was so pious.
"It seems there is something in the cross section?" Wang Zhao didn't look loud, but his heart was very delicate. After all, he was a woman.
"The smell is very fishy, like the scales of some kind of monster." Xiaoshuang said, the sound was not loud, and it sounded very light.
"Xiaoshuang's sense of smell is naturally sensitive." Wang Zhao nodded and said, "Since you can smell the fishy smell, this statue seems to be a little problem, let's cut it open and take a look."
A sword light flashed in his hand, wood chips fell on the heels of the statue, and a piece of dry scales fell out.
The moment he saw the scales, Wang Zhao's expression immediately sank.
"Sure enough, there are scales!"
The scales larger than the palm are dark and look like they have been old. They are dull and can be seen in the same place as the statue. If it weren't for cutting it out, no one would have thought that the scales of sea beasts existed in the statue of the Taoist Lord.
"Such big scales must be owned by giant sea beasts. Who would have placed the scales in the statue of the Taoist lord..."
Wang Zhao frowned and asked, "Xiaoshuang, you have the most knowledgeable knowledge. Do you recognize this kind of scale?"
Xiao Shuang picked up the scales after hearing this, observed for a while, and said, "Lantern Beast, these are the scales of the Lantern Beast. My lady once hunted the Lantern Beast, and I remember it very clearly."
"The scales of the Lantern Beast!" Wang Zhao was suddenly shocked, his expression became gloomy, and a few words were spoken from his teeth.
"My father lost the talisman pen, which was refined from the scales of the lantern beast..."
Wang Zhao didn't finish his words. The scales of the lantern beast can not only refine talisman pens, but also attract sea beasts, because the scales of the lantern beast have a natural smell and are used to lure and kill other sea beasts.
Someone deliberately left the scales of the lantern beast in the statue of the Taoist lord, and his intention was even more provoked.
Used to attract more sea beasts to attack Linyuan Island!
Xu Yan also knew the strangeness of the Lantern Beast, and even knew that someone was plotting against Linyuan Island. However, he did not expect that the people who plotted against Linyuan Island were so insidious that they placed the scales of the Lantern Beast in the statue.
Who is the statue? The Lord of the East Heaven!
The most suspicious thing about the entire Linyuan Island is the statue of the Taoist lord. Even the island lord Wang Yuhai will not be presumptuous in front of this statue.
It's really terrifying to have such a scheming mastermind.
It seems that Linyuan Island offended some cruel people...
Xu Yan's eyes flashed slightly, then he looked at the quiet Xiaoshuang and said, "Xiaoshuang, how do you smell the scent of scales?"
Xu Yan has never heard of his natural olfactory talent. He did not suspect that Xiaoshuang was the mastermind behind the placing scales, but was curious about Xiaoshuang's strange olfactory talent.
In Xu Yan's cognition, only the demon race will have olfactory talents, and the human race has never heard of any talent.
Xiao Shuang lowered her head shyly and refused to speak. Wang Zhao explained: "Xiao Shuang has a natural talent for smell, otherwise she would not have become a maid of the Xuanyuan family. The ancient Xuanyuan family is the most powerful in the hundreds of islands. Although Xiao Shuang is just a maid, her status is no less than that of my island owner's daughter."
The Xuanyuan family has a deep foundation, even the island leader Wang Yuhai knows very little. Wang Zhao only knows that the power of Xuanyuan Island has a place in the four domains and eight deserts, and is definitely not comparable to the power of the islands such as Balan Island, Linyuan Island.
"Don't move the statue first, and don't alarm the Taoist priests in the temple. I'll go back and report to my father." Wang Zhao instructed solemnly: "Xu Yan and Fei Cai are here to take care of them. Don't let anyone approach the statue. Xiao Shuang will also help you watch it, and I'll go back!"
After saying that, Wang Zhao hurriedly left the hall and flew towards the sect with his sword.
It is of great importance and Wang Zhao can no longer make the decision. She needs to notify the island owner immediately.
After Wang Zhao left, Fei Cai muttered indignantly: "The Taoist priests in the Taoist temple are all locals from Linyuan City. When I was a child, I often came here to play. It would definitely not be the fish scales buried by those Taoist priests. It must be the hands and feet of those guys from Balan Island. These guys who kill thousands of swords!"
"Maybe it was someone else's actions. We don't have to draw conclusions, just let the island owner decide everything."
Xu Yan comforted her, and saw Xiao Shuang silently, and asked, "The five-fin pompeople should be a monster, and at most it can refine a low-grade spiritual pill. The third lady in your family will not have a lower level than you."
"The third lady is much higher than mine, how can I compare to it?" Xiao Shuang waved her hands repeatedly when she heard this, blinking her eyes quickly, and showed a sense of panic. She was a servant maid, and she naturally felt that it was inappropriate for others to compare her master with her.
"Since the realm is higher than you, at least you need the Golden Pill Cultivation, the Five-fin Pompeople seems to be even more useless." Xu Yan asked curiously. This shy and quiet little maid seemed to be a hard-working life and helped her master run around.
"Miss Three doesn't need the five-fin pompet to make alchemy. There are many spiritual pills on our Xuanyuan Island." Xiaoshuang pursed her small cherry lips, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Five-fin pompet is taken to eat. Miss Three likes to eat steamed five-fin pompet."
"Catch it and eat it?" Fei Cai's eyes widened and exclaimed: "Every time Haiyuan is experienced, it will be dead. Your lady sent you to Haiyuan every year to get fish for her. This is too unfair, and there will be danger sooner or later."
Xu Yan's eyes were a little cold.
Such a violent master is almost the same as Xu Yan. The Tianmen Marquis had only one sea-tolerant under his command, and was treated as food for winter. The third lady of the Xuanyuan family was just as cruel. She ignored the maid's life and made him come to Haiyuan to catch fish every year.
After all, it was the family business of Xuanyuan Island. Xu Yan was an outsider and was not qualified to meddle in other people's business. After hearing this, he didn't think much about it. As for sympathy with Xiaoshuang, there was no question of sympathy for Xiaoshuang.
He has never had the emotion of sympathy or pity since he was a child. When encountering unfair things, he will at most become angry and arouse violence in his heart.
"Xiao Shuang, I'd like to tell me that you'd better leave Xuanyuan Island. Come to our Linyuan Island. How great is our senior sister, much better than your third lady."
Fei Cai began to speak up for Xiao Shuang and said, "Isn't that the third lady harming human life? Haiyuan is so dangerous, doesn't she know? Just for her own desire to do so, she can drive the maid to take risks. It's better not to have such a master."
Xiaoshuang didn't say much, she kept lowering her head and listening, without refuting, but just shook her head gently, looking loyal.
"You are just too honest. Alas, you are bullied by others." Fei Cai said angrily: "What the third lady on Xuanyuan Island, I think she must be an inhuman cold-blooded guy!"
"Shut up!"
