As soon as the battle ended, Zhu Xiucai collapsed on the ground, panting from exhaustion.
After all, today's battle was really a leapfrog battle for him. Both physically and mentally, he was squeezed to the extreme.
Qin Shaoyou stepped forward to check and confirmed that Zhu Xiucai's injury was not serious, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, Cui Yougui didn't jump downstairs. He walked over and said, "Don't worry, I told his fortune. He won't die that easily."
"Old Dao, thank you just now."
Zhu Xiucai, who was paralyzed on the ground, did not forget to express his gratitude to Cui Yougui.
If Cui Youwei hadn't saved him with his sword in time, he would have been severely injured even if he hadn't died in Ruan Xiangxiang's hands.
Qin Shaoyou was curiously looking at the magic sword covered in flames. He was about to ask Cui Youyou, the battle was over, why didn't you put away the flames on the magic sword?
Before the words were spoken, the magic sword flew out of the Nuanxiang Pavilion with a whoosh, carrying a ray of fire towards the gate of Piaoxiang Pavilion.
There happened to be a nightingale flying in the night sky. Zhu Xiucai saw it and couldn't help shouting: "Oh no, old Taoist, your sword has followed the bird!"
Hearing this, Qin Shaoyou was speechless: What do you mean the sword ran away with the bird? Why didn't you call sister-in-law and ran away with Huang He?
Cui Youyi's head was covered with black lines. He glared at Zhu Xiucai and cursed: "Don't yell blindly. My sword did not run away with the bird. It went back to the sword case."
Zhu Xiucai smiled awkwardly: "I was shocked. I thought your sword had abandoned you."
If Zhu Xiucai hadn't been so weak right now, Cui Youying would have wanted to beat him up. Listen to what he said? People who don't know heard it and thought that Cui Youying was cheated and suffered.
It was chaotic at first and finally gave up.
The Nuanxiang Pavilion at this moment is not only in dilapidated condition, but also has a lot of blood.
After Xue Qingshan pulled out his long hair, he jumped downstairs and stood in the yard.
Qin Shaoyou also jumped down. He originally wanted to jump down with Zhu Xiucai, but Cui Youwei beat him to it.
The night watchman rushed over and rushed into the incense shop, which had been turned into a dangerous building, with relevant artifacts to collect evidence and suspicious and dangerous items.
Cui Yougui jumped downstairs and when he got to the yard, he threw Zhu Xiucai on the ground and said, "By the way, remember to thank the nurse who took my sword box away later."
"Why?"
Zhu Xiucai asked in confusion, rubbing his buttocks and grinning in pain.
It turned out that in order to deal with him, Cui Youyou deliberately threw him on a stone with sharp water chestnuts. If he hadn't practiced it, he wouldn't have had pain in his buttocks, but bleeding from his anus.
Qin Shaoyou, who was standing next to him, saw this scene and snickered secretly. At the same time, he also understood why Cui Youyi wanted to jump downstairs before him, carrying Zhu Xiucai.
For this moment of revenge.
Cui Yougui was secretly happy at the moment, but his face was still tense, with an expression that said, "We have been professionally trained, we will never laugh." He pretended to throw Zhu Xiucai on a stone. It was just a scene.
Accident.
Upon hearing the inquiry, he explained: "If the guard hadn't opened my sword box to take a peek before, my magic sword wouldn't have come, let alone save your life."
Zhu Xiucai became more and more confused: "Isn't this your sword? Why won't it come if the guard doesn't open the sword box? You still can't control your sword?"
Cui Youyou said: "Of course I can control my sword, but I can't open the sword box. It can only be opened by someone else. And if the sword box cannot be opened, I can't take out the sword inside and use it... I said this,
Can you understand?"
Zhu Xiucai nodded: "It's a bit convoluted, but I can still understand it. It's just that I don't understand. Since the guardian can open the sword box, why can't you open it?"
Cui Yougui sighed helplessly: "Because my sword is a supernatural object, I can't open the sword box. It is a curse that comes with it."
Hearing this, everyone was amazed, even Xue Qingshan was no exception.
This was the first time they had heard of such a strange curse.
Zhu Xiucai couldn't help but ask: "Can't you change the sword case?"
Cui Yougui said: "If changing the sword case helps, do you still need to remind me? I have already tested it. No matter what sword case is changed, the sword will fly back to its own sword case."
"Quite single-minded." Zhu Xiucai sighed.
Qin Shaoyou remembered something: "No wonder when you handed over the sword box, you deliberately asked not to open it. You just wanted to arouse the curiosity of the nurse and ask him to open the sword box for you.
Right? But how can you be sure that he will open the sword box? What if he doesn’t open it? "
Cui Youyou was full of confidence: "He will definitely open it. I can read faces, and I can tell at a glance that the nurse is very curious. The more he is not allowed to do something, the more curious he is and the more he wants to do it.
"
Having said this, he glanced at Zhu Xiucai and continued: "If there was not such a guardian, I would ask the scholar to help open the sword box. Anyway, if the sword box is opened once, it can be used for three hours, unless the sword has been used.
Otherwise, there is no need to ask others to help open it."
Zhu Xiucai suddenly realized: "So that's it, let me tell you... Hey, since you can read faces, can you help me look at them?"
Cui Youshao shook his head and said: "You don't need to look at it, you just look like you have kidney deficiency. There is nothing to say."
"Get out!"
What Zhu Xiucai couldn't hear the most was the word "kidney deficiency".
He has recovered a lot under the conditioning of Shandaonian decoction, okay!
After chatting for a while, Zhu Xiucai volunteered: "Old Taoist, your sword is really powerful, but the curse is a bit weird... But it doesn't matter, I will help you open the sword box in the future."
"Are you sure?" Cui Yougui asked.
Seeing his strange expression, Zhu Xiucai was slightly startled.
Qin Shaoyou realized something and asked him: "Your sword is a supernatural item. Will the person who opens the sword box suffer any side effects?"
Cui Youyou didn't hide anything. He nodded and said: "Yes, anyone who opens the sword box will be burned by the flames released by the sword. That's why I asked the scholar to thank them and give them some ointments, supplements and the like."
"This is no problem." Zhu Xiucai nodded in agreement.
In a sense, the guard who opened the sword box could be regarded as his savior.
Not to mention sending ointments, supplements, and paying enough medical expenses, there is no problem.
There was just one thing that Zhu Xiucai couldn't figure out: "Didn't you cheat the nursing home by doing this? This kind of behavior that harms others and benefits oneself is against the rules of your sect, right?"
Cui Youyou laughed and said: "If I really cheated that nurse, I would have indeed violated the Taoist rules. But the problem is, I didn't cheat him, on the contrary, I saved him."
"How do you say this?" Zhu Xiucai asked in astonishment.
Qin Shaoyou and Xue Qingshan were also puzzled.
He obviously burned others, but he said he was saving people... Is there any mystery hidden in this?
Cui Youyou didn't sell it, and explained: "From the look of that man's face, there will be a bloody disaster in the near future, which may even endanger his life, so I led him to open the sword box and let him be burned by the sword fire, washing away the bloody disaster. After that, he
If he encounters danger again, it will either be a near miss or his life will not be hurt. Do you think I am saving him?"
Can it still be done like this?
Everyone was amazed and felt that the useless knowledge had increased again.
Cui Yougui asked Zhu Xiucai at this time: "You just said that you would help me open the sword box in the future. Does this count?"
Zhu Xiucai waved his hand without hesitation: "No, you should find someone else!"
Qin Shaoyou asked curiously: "Senior Brother Cui, who did you ask to help open the sword box in the past?"
Cui Youwei stood with his hands tied, looked at the moon proudly, and said slowly: "My sword box should either be opened by the enemy for me, or by someone who wants it from me."
"sharp!"
Everyone sighed in unison.
They were not praising Cui Youxian for being awesome, but praising Cui Youxian for being thick-skinned.
If I didn't know the cause and effect, just hearing Cui Yougui's words, I would really think that he was so awesome that he didn't even bother to open the sword box himself.
But the fact is that Cui Youxian couldn't open his sword box...
Zhu Xiucai and Cui Yougui continued to chat, while Xue Qingshan scolded Qin Shaoyou: "Why didn't you call me when you came to Piaoxiang Courtyard?"
"Um?"
When Qin Shaoyou heard this, he raised his eyebrows.
Why didn't I call you? Do you still need to ask?
He looked at Xue Qingshan with suspicious eyes: "I called you...what do you want to do?"
